Chapter 102: Conquering Zheng Tai
"Zhang Kangzhi, it is not a day's work for the boat master, it is not easy to form a boat division, and it is even more difficult to make it a powerful and winning division, it must be ten years of work, or even longer."
In the Quanzhou Prefecture, Li Sanjian was a fierce general, and he was very relieved, so he continued to say to Zhang Kan.
"Li Fuzun, how can you not know about this? The matter of the boat master is not a matter of Quanzhou and a state, but a matter of Fujian Road, or even a matter of the imperial court. Zhang Kan wanted to speak and stopped.
Li Sanjian nodded when he heard this.
Although Zhang Kan didn't say it completely, how could Li Sanjian not understand what he meant?
After all, Quanzhou is only a state, a corner of the land. Trying to build a powerful boat division that runs rampant all over the world with the power of a state is tantamount to a fool's dream.
At the same time, Li Sanjian and others tried their best to build a powerful boat division, but they were interfered with halfway, and even forcibly forbidden by the imperial court, then this matter will definitely be abandoned halfway.
But although Li Sanjian and Zhang Kan know the key here, they have nothing to do.
Needless to say, a low-level military attaché, no one in the imperial court looks at a low-level military attaché in his eyes, and no one will listen to half of what he says.
And although Li Sanjian is the governor of Quanzhou and the doctor of the Liupin court, he is a humble official in the eyes of the people in the court, and almost no one cares about what he says, especially when he is thousands of miles away from Beijing.
The only thing Li Sanjian hoped for was that Zhao Ji promised him, it was really Chrysostom, so there was a glimmer of possibility.
"As long as we do our best, we can have a clear conscience!" After a long time, Li Sanjian sighed.
"That's what Li Fuzun said." Zhang Kan nodded.
"Alright, let's not talk about that." Li Sanjian then smiled and said to Zhang Kan: "Aren't you ready to recruit people?" Li first sent you a person, or sent you a hand, this person is still a thief. ”
"Will? Bandits? Li Fuzun, what do you mean? Zhang Kan asked in wonder when he heard this.
"That's right, it's a bandit, a thief from Zhao'an." Li Sanjian then nodded to Shan Kui, who had been accompanying him.
Shan Kui understood, bowed down to receive the order, and withdrew.
"Zhang Kangzhi, are you married?" After Shankui went out, Li Sanjian asked casually.
"The young general has already got married, only one wife, his wife Xue lives in Pucheng, and he already has a son named Zhang Menqing." Zhang Kan replied truthfully.
"Zhang Menqing?" Li Sanjian asked in surprise.
Zhang Kan's son's name is Zhang Menqing, which makes Li Sanjian can't help but think of Ximenqing, isn't the famous Ximenqing this era?
Li Sanjian remembered that Ximenqing was a native of Yuncheng, Shandong, that is, Yuncheng on Songjing East and West Road, so where was Ximenqing? Also, is Ximen Qing apocryphal, or is there really a person?
There are also Pan Jinlian, Wu Song, Wu Dalang... The more Li Sanjian thought about it, the more interested he felt.
"What? Dogs.。。? Zhang Kan asked in confusion.
His son is only two years old, does Li Sanjian know about him? Zhang Kan said secretly in his heart.
"Hehe, it's nothing, Ling Lang is a little close to the name of an old man named Li." Li Sanjian smiled: "Zhang Kangzhi is only twenty-six this year, right?" And with only one wife, he gave birth to a son, but the official has already accepted two concubines, but there is no heir so far. ”
In fact, whether he has children or not, Li Sanjian didn't care in the past, anyway, he is still young, are you afraid that he will have no heirs?
But as he grew older, with his mother Fu Erniang chattering day after day, Li Sanjian was a little anxious at this time.
What is the reason for this to have no future for yourself? Is it really your own reason?
That's the case, Li Sanjian secretly said in his heart, one is not good, two is not good, and the third is still not good, Li Sanjian felt unusually speechless.
There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is the greatest, do you really want to become a big unfilial person? Li Sanjian was secretly distressed.
"Don't worry about Li Fuzun, the Prime Minister of Fuzun is still young, how can you worry about having no queen? Besides, Li Fuzun is dedicated to the country and the people, and the sky will not stop Li Fuzun. Hearing this, Zhang Kan hurriedly persuaded: "Also, the young general heard that there is a woman in Fujian, called 'Penglai Xiangu', it is said that the people ask this person for a child, and everything should not be fulfilled, why don't you invite this person to come to Quanzhou?" ”
Fairy Gu? Fairy Gu again? It can't be that person, right? When Li Sanjian heard this, he couldn't help but think of the fairy girl in Guojiazhuang in Kaifeng Mansion, when the official army broke through Guojiazhuang, the fairy girl disappeared.
At this time, the 'Penglai Immortal Aunt' in Zhang Kan's mouth is really the fairy girl in Guojiazhuang and appeared in Fujian, so he arrested her and invited her? Li Sanjian said secretly in his heart.
"How about this official send someone to take the wife and children who dare to Quanzhou?" Li Sanjian then smiled at Zhang Kan.
"Thank you Li Fuzun!" Zhang Kan was overjoyed when he heard this, but he said to Li Sanjian unceremoniously: "The parents of the young general are still here... ”
"Haha, all together, my Quanzhou has a pleasant climate, picturesque scenery, suitable for settlement, and many foreign colors... After the dare family picks it up, how about the official personally arrange the official residence for you? Li Sanjian said with a smile.
"Thank you Li Fuzun!" Zhang Kan thanked him again.
Who doesn't like family reunions and family fun? But all these years, Zhang Kan has been nesting in Xianxia Pass, so how can he bring his family into the barracks?
"Master, the man has been brought." At this moment, Shan Kui walked in and said to Li Sanjian.
Shankui called Li Sanjian the master, and at the same time, the person was as his name, tall and burly, just like a mountain, which made Zhang Kan can't help but look at Shankui a few more times.
"Bring it in, oh yes, remove its torture instruments." Li Sanjian heard the words and instructed Shankui.
Shan Kui received the order, turned around and walked out of the door, and then brought a person in from the door.
"Get on your knees!" Shan Kui said coldly to this celebrity criminal.
When the celebrity criminal heard this, he knelt in front of Li Sanjian and Zhang Kan with a "poof".
The man's hair and beard were like grass, his hair was below the shoulders, his beard hung almost down his chest, his eyes were scattered, and the muscles revealed in his tattered clothes were knotted and powerful.
He was tall, but he was unusually languishing and knelt on the ground.
"Zheng Tai, are you guilty?" Li Sanjian looked at the person kneeling in front of him, was silent for a long time, and asked after half a sound.
"The villain... Sinners are convicted! Hearing this, Zheng Tai glanced up at Li Sanjian, kowtowed three times and replied.
After Li Sanjian entered the territory of Quanzhou, he was attacked in Meiyu Village, Nan'an County, and the leader of the bandits was this Zheng Tai in front of him.
Zheng Tai was instigated by Zhong Cheng, a wicked official in Nan'an County, to take the heads of Li Sanjian and others in exchange for food.
After Li Sanjian was dispersed, he met Zheng Tai and other bandits, and then Zheng Tai wanted to take refuge in Li Sanjian and be recruited by the government.
But even so, Li Sanjian still took Zheng Tai down and threw him into prison, where he was locked up for more than half a year, because the banditry on Zheng Tai was difficult to eliminate, and if he was not locked up for more than half a year, he would not be able to eradicate the banditry on Zheng Tai.
What Li Sanjian needs is a general who can fight habitually, not a murderous bandit.
A brave habitual bandit, after being locked up for more than half a year, basically changed from a tiger to a cat...
Although Li Sanjian had instructed that Zheng Tai should not be abused, the iron prison of the Great Song Dynasty, especially the death row prison, was not so easy to stay, basically came in alive, went out dead, or went out half-dead...
Therefore, Zheng Tai, who was extremely brave half a year ago, has become the appearance in front of him.
Li Sanjian originally planned to lock Zheng Tai up for more than a year and polish off the banditry on him, but at this time, he was planning the Quanzhou Boat Master and urgently needed people, so he came down and released Zheng Tai at this time.
If Zheng Tai is still unruly and difficult to get rid of, Li Sanjian plans to get rid of this person, although Zheng Tai is so little kind to Li Sanjian...
However, at present, the effect is still relatively satisfactory.
"Oh, what crime has you committed? Let's hear it. Li Sanjian picked up the tea bowl and asked after taking a sip of tea.
"Sin ... Person... Gathering in the Wuthering Mountains and forests, robbing homes and houses, committing a capital crime... Zheng Tai stammered when he heard this: "There is also an offense to Li Daguan, please forgive Li Daguan!" ”
Zheng Tai is not afraid of death, since the day he gathered in the Wuthering Mountains, his head was pinned to the waistband of his trousers, how could he be afraid of death? But Zheng Tai was afraid of being put on death row again at this time, and he would be tortured again on death row.
The Great Song Dynasty death row is not a place for people to stay, and there is no light of day all day long, and "regulars" such as rats, lice, and fleas have accompanied Zheng Tai for most of the year...
There are also wolf-like prisons and creepy torture instruments.
The most important thing is that in death row, almost no one has spoken to Zheng Tai, and for most of the year, Zheng Tai almost went crazy.
Such torture is very human beings can bear.
Zheng Tai would rather die than go to death row again.
"Get up and talk!" Li Sanjian heard this and said, "Shankui, go and pick up clean clothes for him to change into." ”
Zheng Tai once threatened Li Sanjian with death, which is one of the reasons why Zheng Tai was on death row for most of the year.
"Thank you, Mr. Li!" Zheng Tai took off the stinking clothes of the death row inmates, put on clean clothes, stood up and thanked him.
"Leader Zheng, are you still holding a grudge against this official?" Li Sanjian then looked at Zheng Tai and asked.
"Sinners dare not die!" Li Sanjian's words frightened Zheng Tai so much that he almost knelt down again...
When Li Sanjian put Zheng Tai on death row, Zheng Tai of course hated Li Sanjian, it can be said that he hated it bitterly, and he wanted to cut the treacherous Li Sanjian into seventeen or eighteen paragraphs, but as he was imprisoned for a long time, Zheng Tai turned from hatred to fear, and turned into bowing down.
"Crimes such as robbing homes, extortion, and mutilating the people are all serious crimes, and piles are capital crimes, and they should be cut with a thousand knives." Li Sanjian looked at Zheng Tai and said: "But this official thinks that you are evil for a short time, and you are not a person who has committed a great crime, so you can open up the net, and at the same time, this official is a person who cherishes talents, and he can't bear that your martial arts are useless, so I forgive your sins and include me Quanzhou Boat Master, just... Let's start with a team leader. ”
"You belong to Zhang Kangzhi." Li Sanjian pointed at Zhang Kan and said to Zheng Tai: "This official not only forgives your sins, but also forgives the sins of your subordinates and family, and promises here today that in the future, as long as someone abandons the darkness and turns to the light and returns to the king's way, this official will never count the previous account." ”
Zheng Tai couldn't believe his ears when he heard this, and looked at Li Sanjian blankly, silent for a long time.
"Why don't you thank Li Fuzun? Li Fuzun has taken on a lot of responsibility for you. Seeing this, Zhang Kan looked at Zheng Tai and said.
"The villain... The villain thanks Li Fuzun, the villain is willing to serve Li Fuzun before and after the saddle in the future, and go to the soup and fire, at any cost! Jung Tae cried and bowed down.
