Chapter 225: Killing the General

In the end, it is a veteran, although Zhao Duwei made a sudden attack, which made this guy quite hasty in response. But when the guy heard the sound of the bowstring, he leaned back on his horse, dodging the arrow that was straight to his head. It's just that he didn't expect that the archery skills of the person who sneaked up on him were so superb. Right away, you can shoot a series of arrows like three stars catching the moon.

He relied on the agility he had cultivated on the battlefield all year round to dodge the first arrow. The two sharp arrows that came one after another were also blocked by his henchmen who reacted immediately to the left and right, desperately blocking them for him. But he was disturbed by the sharp arrows that followed, but he ignored the young prince who was directly opposite him, and in his eyes, he was probably just a gentleman.

Just when Zhao Duwei shot the first wave of three stars to catch the moon, Huang Qiong's other hand hidden in his sleeve, the copper coin he was holding was hidden after shooting the arrow, and it directly hit his head. At the same time, the arrows that Zhao Duwei shot continuously from behind also turned his chest into a hornet's nest before his other henchmen could react.

Jiang Xin, who has suffered so much, even the Daluo Immortal will be difficult to save him, and he who is already dead at the time of Deng Shi can't die anymore. With lightning speed, after getting rid of Jiang Xin, who was willing to rebel. Huang Qiong took out the pardon letter granted by the emperor again, and quickly stabilized the military spirit of the Tiger Prison Pass. And at the first time, the rest of the officials who refused to obey and were imprisoned by Jiang Xin were released.

Jiang Xin was transferred to the Tiger Prison for less than three months, and there were only five or six of his henchmen. And these five or six henchmen can only control the garrison of five hundred people. The first rebellion has been ambushed, and those henchmen will naturally not resist. Faced with the disobedience of his subordinates, he could only disarm and surrender.

Huang Qiong quickly subdued the garrison of Tiger Prison Pass and stabilized the situation in the pass. The only pity is that there is no one who can catch the person sent by King Jing to contact Jiang Xin. Seeing that the situation was not good, that guy actually took the first step to commit suicide by taking poison. This person's death made Huang Qiong feel very regretful. If you can catch it alive, you should be able to knock a lot of things out of his mouth.

However, although there are some regrets, Huang Qiong is more careful about her real opponent who has not been found out until now. Whether Jiang Xin is King Jing's person or not, Huang Qiong can now be determined. From this point on, when King Jing was mentioned, there was no half of respect in his tone, and Huang Qiong knew that King Jing was just a tablet for him.

But who is the person who controls Jiang Xin, with the death of this liaison, will become a hemp ball again. And that person was not only able to control Jiang Xin, but this dignified fourth-grade military attache worked hard for himself. There are so many dead soldiers in their hands, this is not ordinary terrible. People are not afraid of death, what else can they be afraid of?

Shaking his head, knowing that he had more important things to do at the moment, Huang Qiong temporarily withdrew his mind from here. After ordering Jiang Xin and this contact person to be displayed to the public. Huang Qiong was released, and he was still in shock, but he could only pick up his spirit to deal with Huang Qiong's acquaintance, and accompanied him to check the defense of the Tiger Prison.

Touching, it has been moved to Kansai, and it is aiming at several cannons in the direction from which it came, with a swarthy cannon body. Looking at the mountains of ** and shells in the pass, Huang Qiong couldn't help but shout in her heart that she was lucky. If he fails to capture Jiang Xin in one fell swoop, how much price does the Xiao Cavalry Battalion need to pay if they want to recapture this Xiongguan?

In fact, Huang Qiong really wanted to capture this Jiang Xin alive. When he found out that the person standing behind him was not King Jing, Huang Qiong could see clearly the sharp mang in this guy's eyes. This silk mango also confirmed Huang Qiong's guess in disguise. If I can capture this guy alive, I'm afraid I'll get more than that contact.

It's just a pity that the situation at that time was urgent. If he hadn't used the prestige of the three killed generals in the Tiger Prison Pass army to divide the three thousand military horses in the Tiger Prison Pass. didn't give this guy time to react, and directly got rid of him, I'm afraid that when the time comes, I may not be able to determine who will die, and I may not have the last laugh.

However, although it was not caught. But Huang Qiong believes that Jiang Xin's internal status in the other party is definitely not low. With the emperor's control over the army, even if that person's hands and eyes are in the sky, I am afraid that there is a limit to how much his hands can be inserted into the army. A fourth-grade military attache is not that kind of empty position. It's a real person who leads the troops, no matter who is standing behind him, but it would be strange if this status was low.

Today, he broke one of his generals, although it may not make that guy break his muscles and bones, but at least it can be regarded as a break for him. It is even possible to break the nail of his highest rank in the army. Presumably, this time it will make this person feel distressed and stomp his feet, which can be regarded as a blow to him.

Seeing that the King of England stroked the cannon and fell into deep thought, he had just been released from the Dutong Yamen by the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, and said cautiously from the Sipin Tiger Prison Pass: "His Royal Highness, you are guilty of humbling your duties. As a fellow of the Tiger Prison Pass, he failed to discover Jiang's rebellious heart early. not only caused the lives of three colleagues to be killed by this traitor, but also trapped the King of England in danger, and asked His Royal Highness to punish him. ”

Hearing this fellow acquaintance ask for punishment, Huang Qiong shook her head. The Tongzhi of Tiger Prison Pass is a civil official, and his full name is Tiger Prison Pass Fumin Governor Tongzhi. According to the customization of Daqi, there is no state and county pass. In addition to the responsibility of supervising the army and supervising the payment of food, the garrison is also responsible for handling the civil affairs in the passes.

In addition to the Tiger Pass, all the key passes of the garrison in Daqi are equipped with this kind of common knowledge of the people. At this kind of pass, these people know the actual rights, and they are not even smaller than a governor. Even because he was responsible for the garrison's food and salary, the maintenance of the city, and the request and distribution of baggage, the rights even exceeded those of the ordinary Zhizhou.

Although the jurisdiction is smaller, these passes are often set up on the main roads of land and water, as well as the traffic arteries of merchants. Often because of the objective environment, there is a kind of deformed prosperity. As a fellow acquaintance of the people who is in charge of both military and civilian affairs, even if it is in the poor mountains and remote areas of Xichuan Road, the oil and water are not ordinary.

The colleague in front of him, judging from his round figure, may have made a lot of oil and water. It's just that in this matter, he does have responsibility. After all, as a fellow acquaintance of the people, his first duty is to supervise the army. There was such a big thing in the army, and he actually found out that things were not good until he was arrested. Presumably, this guy puts more thought into how to make money on weekdays.

But to say that he is primarily responsible is a bit unreasonable. After all, he is a civilian official, although he is in the name of a supervising army, but in fact, there are still limited things that can be interfered in the army. And now that the war is imminent, it's time to deal with him now. At least this round guy still has some say in the military affairs of Tiger Prison.

After thinking about it, Huang Qiong waved her hand and said, "Just hold you accountable." This time there is such a big thing in the pass, you are all aware of it, and you do have a part of the responsibility, and the responsibility is not small. The court sent you, and the first duty is to supervise the army, not to let you be an ornament. It's not that you don't do anything but make money all day. ”

"But now that things have come out, it's a little too late to hold anyone accountable. Now that the war is imminent, this king doesn't want to cause more trouble. What you need to do now is to cooperate with Zhao Wuxian to defend the Tiger Prison Pass before the army of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion arrives. If you do a good job, this king will give you a merit to offset it. If you don't do a good job, you will be punished for both crimes, and this king will send you back to Beijing in a prisoner car. ”

"You are a child of a family, and you have heard of the methods of this king. If this king wants to cure your sins, it is useless for the king of heaven to come. You are from a family of military generals, and although you are now a civil official, this king hopes that the martial spirit left by your ancestors in a hundred battles has not been completely lost. ”

Although he scared this guy, Huang Qiong still decided to give him a sweet date to eat. Both soft and hard are the means to control the subordinates: "This thing is done, although this tiger prison is the same knowledge, and you can't do it anymore, but this king can protect you from the outside." Presumably, you can go out and be a Zhizhou. ”

To be honest, Huang Qiong is not generally disappointed in this guy. And not only because in this matter, he was clearly not an ordinary dereliction of duty. And this guy has been transferred to Tiger Prison for a long time, which is much longer than that Jiang Xin. He is about to complete his term, and when such a big thing happens, he doesn't even have a person to report the news.

If you want to talk about intrigue, this guy is also from a family, can he be worse in what way? But to let a person who has been in office for less than three months turn around, this is probably not dereliction of duty that can be justified. It's just that the matter has come to this point, even if he kills him, he can't recover the loss. Besides, he is also an old man in Guanzhong, so it is better to keep him at least than to keep a pig.

As for Baoju, this guy was released to a Zhizhou, although it was a downgrade in terms of level. But he was not investigated for dereliction of duty, and he also released a real shortcoming, it is estimated that this guy will definitely be happy to do things for himself. In this Jingwang rebellion, almost all the officials of Zhengzhou were involved, and it was not a matter to vacate a real shortage of Zhizhou.

Sure enough, as soon as Huang Qiong's words fell, this guy said with a grateful face: "His Royal Highness does not pursue the crime of dereliction of duty, and he should be grateful." Please rest assured that the king of England will do his best to cooperate with Zhao Duwei to do a good job in the defense of the Tiger Prison Pass, and will never disappoint the high expectations of the prince. ”

After listening to this guy's loyal words, Huang Qiong waved his hand to indicate that he didn't want to continue to entangle himself in this matter. Instead, he set his eyes on the cannons in front of him. Yes, this cannon is called a general's cannon. I heard that this name was given by Emperor Taizu back then.

Seeing that the King of England was interested in these cannons, the fellow who was eager to atone for his sins, hurriedly spoke: "Your Royal Highness, these cannons were cast by the King of Guilin in Tongzhou during the founding of the country. These cannons were extremely powerful, with a range of up to ten miles, and were almost invincible especially during sieges. ”

"It's just that although these general's cannons are extremely powerful, they are also too bulky. When moving, it needs to be pulled by dozens of tall horses to move. It is of little use in the field. Therefore, most of them can only be placed in passes to defend the city, and field battles have almost no value. Except for a few key passes, there were almost no other armies. ”

"Plus to cast these cannons, a lot of copper is needed. The copper produced by our dynasty can only be used for coinage, and there is really not much copper to cast cannons. At that time, the king of Guilin almost cast the copper coins of the former Tang Dynasty in the same state, and only after scraping the embers did they cast a few doors. The cast cannon made of pig iron, although the weight is lighter, but it has been repeatedly blown up. Even if a few doors can be used, the effect is much worse. ”

"And I have always been elite in the cavalry, and in the field battles, I am no worse than the Northern Liao Iron Cavalry. In the field, this cannon is too bulky and has a very limited use. In addition, when the world was initially decided, the people's livelihood was exhausted, and all industries withered, and the income of the DPRK and the central government was barely enough to maintain the salary in the army, which was difficult to maintain even the salaries of hundreds of officials. ”
