Chapter 390: Entering the Town

The river Changshuitang is not long, only a few dozen miles, but it has a long history, because this is a canal, which was dug by the reign of Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of the ages.

The edge of the long pond seemed to be like more than a thousand years ago, full of the smell of blood, the corpses scattered everywhere were clearly illuminated by torches, and the soldiers who cleaned the battlefield were full of joy and cut off their heads one by one.

"Brother Zhancai." At the beginning of the year, Jiaxing raised people to visit Bao Tafang, who was close to Qian Yuan, although he was nearly a round older than Qian Yuan, but in the face of a jinshi, it was appropriate to say that he was a brother of Zhancai.

"Brother Ziliu." Qian Yuan responded casually, his expression was very indifferent, and he turned his head and asked, "Have you sorted it out?" ”

"Sixty-eight Yiwu soldiers were killed." Qi Jimei's face is not very good-looking, you must know that Qi Jiguang went to Yiwu to train troops in Qiantaizhou three battles and three victories, and two of them were not killed.

Yang Wen, who came over, didn't look very good, "Eight people were killed in the escort team." ”

"I can't control you Yiwu soldiers." Qian Yuan casually made an excuse, "My Qian family's guards have folded a total of thirteen people together with the previous ones!" ”

After taking a few steps forward, Qian Yuan beckoned Zhong Nan, "How many heads?" ”

"About eight or nine hundred." Zhong Nan is in a good mood, Tianzhou soldiers are not short of food, but the income of the soldiers mainly comes from the first rank.

"A hundred heads are worth one person, thirteen people, that is, at least 1,300 heads, it's not enough." Qian Yuan pointed to the black-pressed Japanese prisoners kneeling on the ground, "Cut them all." ”

Everyone looked at each other and was silent for a while, Bao Tafang persuaded: "Brother Zhancai, killing prisoners is ominous......"

Qian Yuan smiled coldly and didn't speak, the first one to turn around and draw the knife was Yang Wen, followed by Zhong Nan, Qi Jimei and Hou Jigao were no longer silent, they all turned around, their eyes showing a fierce light.

The inevitable commotion of the Japanese invaders, Qian Yuan was waiting there, scolding, begging for mercy, the sound of the blade unsheathed, and the screams of death, Yang Wen, who was covered in blood, came with the head of Tian Dahai, the leader of the Japanese invaders.

Qian Yuan nodded with satisfaction, and looked at Bao Tafang with a gentle smile on his face, "Brother Ziliu, it's been a long time since you say goodbye to the capital." ”

Bao Tafang couldn't help but shudder, and barely squeezed out an ugly smile, "Brother Zhancai, please go into the town to rest for a while, the meal has been prepared." ”

"There's no hurry." Qian Yuan glanced at the village Yong, who was still waiting for the battle, "Get out of the way, more than a thousand soldiers will enter the town to rest, prepare food, and collect bedding." ”

"Brother Zhancai......" Bao Tafang glanced at the bloodstained Tianzhou wolf soldiers, who were robbed twice in Jiaxing Mansion by the Shunzhou wolf soldiers two years ago.

"Brother Ziliu is a local in Jiaxing Mansion, he should have heard my story of Qian Zhancai, if Brother Ziliu refuses, then I can't help it."

Bao Tafang only felt that his lips were dry and skinned, he naturally understood this sentence, two years ago, Chongde was victorious, the big families in the city refused to give money and grain, Qian Yuan threatened to wash the city, and many people went to Nanjing after the incident, but it was useless.

Bao Tafang was in a dilemma, Qian Yuan didn't care, his hands were looked at closely behind him, just by the Changshui Pond, under the reflection of many torches, a hill gradually took shape.

"Vomit ......" Bao Tafang didn't pay attention at first, and after taking two steps forward to see it clearly, there was a surge in his throat, and he couldn't help but vomit wildly.

Qi Jimei, Zhong Nan, Wang Yi, Hou Jigao and others all gathered over, and the heavy smell of blood came to their faces.

Lying on the ground and vomiting for a while, Bao Tafang took the water cup handed by Xiang Yong and poured it a few sips before feeling a little better, looking at Qian Yuan with fear and fear in his eyes......

Although Qian Yuan in Beijing has a bit of a big temper, he kicked Zou Yinglong twice in the same year, and beat his future father-in-law Xu Fan to the point that his nose and face are swollen, but in general he is quite gentle.

After the audience roughly talked about the harvest of cleaning the battlefield, Qian Yuan nodded with satisfaction, the number of losses in this battle was only about 100 people, but more than 1,000 beheadings were considered a big victory, and what satisfied him the most was that the Yiwu soldiers showed a high adaptability to the new formation.

"Let's, let's!" There was a loud cheer not far away.

The villagers put away their knives and guns one after another, and the Yiwu soldiers and Songjiang soldiers entered the town one after another, and Bao Tafang grabbed the collar of a clansman and shouted: "Don't let ...... What should I do if someone comes in?! ”

Bao Tafang could see the form clearly, and at other times, Qian Yuan would not have used force to coerce him like this, but now that time is pressing, who knows what will happen in the next moment...... Qian Yuan really didn't have the patience to persuade him, not to mention that his request for Changshui Town was not just as simple as providing food and accommodation.

"Brother Ziliu, it's too much to say that, I'm going to do something like that?" Qian Yuan smiled and patted the earthen enclosure on the side, "How can you do stupid things like relatives and enemies?" ”

"That's, that's." Bao Tafang let go of his hand with a dry smile, "It's all arranged inside, Brother Zhancai will go to eat first?" ”

"There's no hurry." Qian Yuan said three times that he was not in a hurry, and pointed to the faintly visible Jingguan outside, "Tomorrow I will clean up, sprinkle dry lime to prevent the epidemic, and don't simply throw it into the river." ”

Bao Tafang immediately responded, and the Jingguan where the corpses of more than a thousand Japanese robbers were piled up, not to mention that he was afraid of people when he looked at them, and he was also afraid that the Japanese would come to take revenge.

Qian Yuan didn't go directly to eat, first walked around Tuweizi, and after looking at it carefully, he couldn't help but look at Bao Tafang in surprise, but he was a person with practical talents, Changshui Town faced water in the west, and there were hills in the north.

"Brother Zhancai, I heard that Xiushui County was attacked by the Japanese invaders?" Bao Tafang asked cautiously.

Qian Yuan nodded slightly, and his gaze fell on the bamboo spear leaning on the earthen fence, "Lack of weapons?" ”

"Such a small town doesn't dare to buy too many weapons, who would have thought that the Japanese would be so rampant this time." Bao Tafang smiled bitterly: "As long as the villages in the nearby ten miles and eight townships are not particularly remote, they have been washed by the Japanese Bandits, and the two towns before and after have also been attacked. ”

"There are more than 20 wounded soldiers who will stay in Changshui Town, and leave another batch of weapons for you." Qian Yuan promised so, anyway, there were many weapons seized from the Japanese Kou, and the quality was not high.

Bao Tafang was overjoyed, his face was full of red light, although it was more than 20 wounded soldiers, but it could also bring a lot of help to the township warriors in Changshui Town, not to mention that there was a batch of weapons to supply.

Qian Yuan walked along the main road to the town, glanced at Zhou Ze beside him, and said with a smile: "What are you doing with a sad face?" ”

"I didn't get a single head." Zhou Ze was sullen, and everyone outside had already finished sharing the spoils.

Of the more than 1,000 heads, half of the Yiwu soldiers and Tianzhou soldiers were divided, the Jiaxing soldiers under Lu Bin and the Songjiang soldiers of Hou Jigao were divided into forty percent, and the remaining one percent was the Qian family's escort.

The first rank is very important to the official army, the Tianzhou soldiers and Yiwu soldiers all rely on the first level to exchange silver, and the Qian family escort team also relies on the first level to exchange silver for two, but the more than 100 sea bird guns brought by Zhou Ze did not get a single head.

He Xinyin wondered and asked, "Zhancai, I asked the Governor's Mansion twice for the transfer of bird guns, why don't you use it?" ”

Qian Yuan casually dealt with a few words, not using the bird gun, first, because the Japanese soldiers this time are all stragglers, second, in order to train the Yiwu soldiers, and thirdly, if the bird gun does not have gunpowder projectiles, it is useless than burning sticks.

After going around, Qian Yuan looked at Bao Tafang again, several grain drying fields and the courtyard outside the ancestral hall were covered with bedding, and by the makeshift stove, women were putting a plate of vegetables into the food box, everything was orderly and not chaotic at all.

Faced with Bao Tafang's invitation to the banquet for the third time, Qian Yuan refused with action, he squatted in the barn and took two steamed buns in his hand, and swallowed them with pickles and shredded beans.

Bao Tafang stood aside awkwardly and waited, although he had a talent for hard work, he thought he was a scholar and couldn't pull off this face.

Qian Yuan didn't care about this, even if it was Zhu Dashou, Tao Dalin and other figures, he beckoned: "Changshui Town should be named after Changshui Pond, right?" ”

"Yes, during the Southern Song Dynasty, the two Zhejiang roads dredged the Changshui Pond, and then the villages gradually increased, and by the end of the Yuan Dynasty, more than 1,000 households were gathered for Changshui Town."

"As the saying goes, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the water to eat the water, Changshui Town is naturally drafted, right?"

"Yes, there are many fishermen and cargo ships in Changshui Town, and it can save a lot of distance from Jiaxing County all the way to Haining." Bao Tafang said that this also understood, "You want to go south to Haining?" ”

"Collect the ships tomorrow and leave before noon." Qian Yuan only gave a simple explanation, gnawed on the steamed bun again, shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Brothers, wait until you return to Taizhou, and then eat well!" ”

"It's not bad food, too." Liang Sheng smiled and said: "In Taizhou, there are big fish and meat every day, and I am a little tired!" ”

The laughter sounded, Qian Yuan pointed at Liang Sheng and scolded a few words, in the laughter he looked back, Bao Tafang smiled bitterly and retreated. (Recommended reading: Reading Files 2013)
