Chapter 422: The Fooled Prefect
"He Xiaolian, the prefect Master Chen invites you to go and discuss something important!"
A Fubiao Dusi walked over with a big grin, arched his hand at He Yuanshi and said.
Du Si looked at the big grin, but He Yuanshi still heard a trace of nervousness from his words.
Chen Taishou's vigilance is still very high, He Yuanshi sighed in his heart!
Here, he had just discussed with the elders of the Wang family and the leaders of the militia groups in Xiaogang, Huangpu and other places, and before the people dispersed, Chen Zhen, the prefect of Guangzhou, had already sent people to look for him.
He Yuanshi knew that his behavior of riding out just now was too unusual, as long as people with normal brains would definitely be suspicious.
However, they didn't dare to doubt it too much, after all, the Ming King's soldiers were pressing the border, and among the seven or eight thousand people guarding the Yongkang Fort, the militia group accounted for more than 4,000.
In case He Yuanshi didn't have the heart to rebel, but forced him to the side of the Jiaozhi people because of a misjudgment, it would be counterproductive, so Chen Zhen just asked people to come and 'please' He Yuanshi.
He Yuanshi arched his hand very casually, he was a dignified person, and he didn't look down on a military attache like Du Si, which also echoed his attitude towards these green battalion officers on weekdays.
"Does Wang Dusi know what the Taishou called me? He is still having something to do here, can you wait a while? He Yuanshi pointed to a few pieces of yellow paper in the camp tent in the distance and said, the furnishings in the camp tent really looked like they were discussing something with everyone.
This Wang Dusi brought four or five personal soldiers with shotguns, and the arquebuses were all placed, and he looked a little prepared, He Yuanshi was afraid that they would hurt himself, so he pointed his hand into the camp tent, pretending that there was something important!
Wang Dusi really walked two steps, stood on tiptoe and looked into the camp tent, and several of his own soldiers also looked in the direction of the camp tent.
"Is He Xiaolian joking? Lord Chen called, you don't rush yet... ”
"Do it!" Wang Dusi didn't finish speaking, and suddenly heard a loud shout, he just wanted to touch the short knife on his waist, but suddenly found that his neck was hot, and he seemed to fly!
And flying higher and higher, he looked down in horror, and several tall and strong villagers were holding spears and stabbing their own soldiers frantically.
Rebellion! The militias have rebelled!
Wang Dusi wanted to shout a few times, but found that he couldn't shout, and he suddenly saw a headless corpse right under his sight, that corpse was so familiar!
It seems like.. Like yourself?
Before he finished sighing, Wang Dusi didn't know anything as soon as his eyes darkened.
"Boom!" A huge head with lapis lazuli on top smashed to the ground, splashing a few drops of blood!
"My son! The wealth of the He family depends on you, take down the pass halfway up the mountainside, and wait for the arrival of King Ming's heavenly soldiers, and the big thing will be done! ”
As soon as Wang Dusi's head hit the ground, He Yuanshi patted his second son on the shoulder and shouted loudly, Second Young Master He, who had been prepared a long time ago, nodded heavily.
"The master of the He family comes with me!" With a loud shout, Ding Zhuang and tenants belonging to the He family in dozens of militia groups rushed halfway up the mountain with spears and shotguns!
"The Wang family, the Li family's are all up! Kill the dirty official, vote for the king! ”
Seeing that the He family was all on it, He Yuanshi also let his son take the lead, and several leaders of the Wang family and the Li family also shouted.
The Sanyuanli militia is located at the foot of Yuexiu Mountain, and from here it leads to the Yongkang Fort on the top of Yuexiu Mountain, where the Fubiao soldiers are stationed, and there is a key pass.
But as long as the pass is taken, the road to Yongkang Fort will be a smooth road.
So He Yuanshi had already planned, they only needed to take this pass, and then wait for King Ming's elite to come over and crush the Fubiao soldiers guarding at the top of the mountain.
Leading the troops to guard the Yongkang Fort and the two attached small forts was Chen Zhen, the prefect of Guangzhou, who was a native of Kuizhou Prefecture in Sichuan Province, which is now Fengjie County, Chongqing City.
Chen Zhen's Chen Governor is even more bitter, his family is just a small landlord with seventy or eighty acres of mountainous land, and he looks a lot, but because it is a relatively barren mountain terrace, the annual harvest is not much, and Chen Zhen's parents even have to work in the field themselves, because the harvest is not much, and they can't afford to support so many tenants.
Therefore, this prefect from a hard background, although he was very clear in the Qianlong Dynasty, which was full of corrupt officials and dirty officials, was an upright official, and he also knew a lot about practice.
But precisely because of his poor background, he has not been exposed to higher-level things, and he has been dealing with Confucian classics all his life.
You let him govern the Guangzhou Mansion, to be honest, among the old officials, it is still good, but with the troops fighting and guarding the fort, he doesn't know what to do at all, this Confucian classic has not been taught, and he has not seen it himself!
But he had to come again, because at this time there was no governor in Guangdong, and the governor was concurrently served by the governor of Liangguang.
Now the governor Zhu Qi, according to the inspection envoy Detai, and the political envoy Dar Jishan have their own arrangements, so they can only drive the ducks to the shelves, and let him, the prefect, come to the Yongkang Fort.
And if it is a person who knows the soldiers to defend the Yongkang Fort, it is better to make the defensive arrangements to be top-heavy.
That is, at the foot of the mountain, heavy troops are deployed to guard the main road up the mountain, and if the enemy army comes, it must only attack the defenders at the foot of the mountain first, and the artillery on the mountain can bombard the enemy's rear as support.
However, the Chen Governor's Mansion, who did not understand military affairs at all, was fooled by the old oilmen of the slippery green battalion of Fubiao, and concentrated more than 2,000 people in Fubiao on the mountain to carry out the so-called key defense.
And threw the dangerous thing that should have been done by the soldiers - the battle under the mountain to the militia group.
With such an arrangement, even if the militia group does not oppose the water, this battle cannot be fought, because the revival army can select the elite, and a surprise attack can break up the militia under the mountain.
And once only a small group of elites is dispatched, and they fight fast, the 10,000-jin cannon on the Yongkang Fort will be completely useless, not to mention that now the militia is still backwater.
Therefore, when Second Young Master He and his people suddenly broke out to seize the pass in the middle of the mountain, this battle developed in the direction that was most unfavorable to the governor of Guangdong on the top of the slope.
At the halfway point of the pass, Second Young Master He and his people had already rushed to the inside of the pass, and at the same time, General Luo of the Fubiao Zhongying also arrived with people, and the two sides fought on the simple stone wall of the pass.
At this time, the green battalion soldiers of the Manchu Qing Dynasty had not yet completely decayed, and because the object of the battle was only his own auxiliary soldiers, the militia group, so the hundreds of Fubiao soldiers led by General Luo Shen actually fought back and forth with the Sanyuanli militia led by Second Young Master He.
However, both sides are rookies, and the militia has few shotguns in their hands, and Fubiao is in a hurry and didn't dare to bring more shotguns, so the two sides used big knives and spears to fight.
General Luo couldn't help but secretly regret it, he never expected that these militia groups would turn back so quickly!
The reason why he threw the militia at the foot of the mountain was that he came forward to fool the prefect Chen who did not understand military affairs, because in the past few years, since Sun Yongqing, there has been no governor in Guangdong, and without a governor, these Fu Biao under the control of the governor have become children without a mother.
What's more, since Zhu Jue came, he has been vigorously rectifying the supervision standards belonging to the governor of Liangguang, whether it is silver or weapons, almost all of them are inclined to the supervision standards, and most of the brave people in the Fu Biao have been picked up to the supervision standards, so the Fu Biao, which is not good in combat, is even more broken.
This time, the militia was sent to the foot of the mountain to defend it, firstly, to make it easier for himself, and secondly, to separate the people of the militia regiment, because this time he came to guard the Yongkang Fort, Zhu Jue, who had never been waiting to see Fubiao, still offered a large reward.
Therefore, thousands of people under the Fubiao, who had not seen 'meaty' for a long time, had green eyes, and they unanimously sent the militia to the foot of the mountain, and the reward was almost swallowed by them.
It's just that General Luo Shen never dreamed that people didn't want any rewards at all, and they directly rebelled!
