Chapter 442: Begin to close the net

The brawl on Suzaku Street has been going on, although the two sides were in a melee posture at the beginning, but after all, they are skilled in fighting, and the two sides have begun to come and go, quite a bit of the taste of the battlefield, except that the bricks in their hands cannot be replaced by knives, but the murderous spirit is getting heavier and heavier.

As the old bachelor's side, Shen Luochuan felt a little dazed, he was dancing and writing on weekdays, and he had never had the opportunity to dance with knives and guns, and now although everyone was hot-headed, but when it came to Shen Luochuan himself, he had been beaten all the time, and his white robe was already covered with black footprints, and his eye sockets were also beaten with a few black punches.

"Brother Shen, take care!"

In addition to Xu Zhai still being by Shen Luochuan's side, the scholar surnamed Xu has already begun to prepare to slip away when he sees that the situation is not good, the reason is very simple, although the number of old bachelors is several times more than that of the new bachelors, but most of them are salted fish and rookies, and in front of the new bachelors with the sons of businessmen and farmers as the main force, they are almost beaten so much that they can't find the north.

Shen Luochuan was a little helpless, he had no choice but to wave Wang Ba Fist and fight with the new bachelors, and then in just a moment, he was ridden by a new bachelor and was beaten several times in succession.

"Don't fight, don't fight, contemptible Shen Luochuan, dare to ask Brother Tai's name?"

Shen Luochuan, who was in a state of being beaten, still did not forget his true character as a scholar, and asked about the beater's Taifu seriously.

"In Xia Qinli, are you convinced?"

Qin Li's family has been very poor since he was a child, and his experience in doing farm work in the field is not small, so he is not the kind of person who has no power to restrain the chicken, so he rode on Shen Luochuan, and fiercely repaid the old fist, and while answering, he punched a few more punches.

Shen Luochuan wanted to cry without tears, he looked at the tall scholar on his body, and suddenly felt that this was simply a nightmare.

"Please let my brother go, the contemptible people are convinced, and they are convinced......"

"Do you dare to beat the drum?"

"Don't dare, don't dare......"

"Phew, ......"

Qin Li spat hard, he stood up, kicked Shen Luochuan again, and rushed into the battlefield again, looking for the next opponent.

And Shen Luochuan was still lying on the ground, the more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, and he couldn't help crying, you know, he has never suffered such grievances, but it sounds even more miserable than Dou E.

............

Just when there was a fight in front of the noon gate, there was another scene behind the noon gate, only to see thousands of men wearing the red uniforms of the old-fashioned Fu Han army, carrying muskets with bayonets on their shoulders, were lining up in a neat line, and behind them, a huge Fu Han army flag fluttered, as bright as fire.

It's just strange that although these people are neat and full of fighting spirit, their bodies are basically mutilated, some of them are missing an arm, some are weak legs, and some are simply one-eyed dragons, with a black cloth covering their faces.

Cheng Shi, who was originally driving the boat on the dock, was already standing in the queue at this time, although his legs and feet were inconvenient, but at this time he looked more like a normal person, the musket on his body was polished and shiny, and the snow-white bayonet was glowing with red marks, which were the marks left by the blood after it dried up.

These people in front of them are not Ning Chu's Praetorian Guards, not even active troops, but those disabled soldiers, but they all still have military registrations on their bodies, and they can also ensure their livelihood by relying on their own military merits, so they can be regarded as a member of the Fu Han Army.

Most of them have their own errands near Nanjing, and they can do some work within their ability, like Cheng Shi, although his legs and feet are inconvenient, but he is also a well-known man on the red boat, and it is not a problem to save people, so these people are not completely idle to do after retiring.

However, today, these disabled veterans put on their former military uniforms, went to the Nanjing veterans' arsenal to register, received their own guns, and then under the leadership of the former team officers, company commanders and others, they began to line up again and became a part of the Fuhan Army.

Cheng Shi almost enjoyed standing in a military posture, his dark face no longer had the decadence and loss of the past, but was full of brilliance, and the military uniform on his body was even more clean and tidy, looking extremely powerful.

After a few moments, the array of this army was finally completed, and everyone stood in their positions, looking ahead with burning eyes, as if their enemies were about to appear there.

However, at this moment, just behind the walls of the imperial city, Ning Yu and his ministers have been standing there for a long time, it can be said that the old and new scholars have been fighting for a long time, and they have also stood for a long time, and no one wants to go out to stop them, and no one has said a word for those scholars.

Until the two sides were almost tired of fighting, Ning Yu's expression was full of disdain for the scholars, while the others had embarrassed expressions, it was really because the old scholars who were about to beat the drums were too speechless.

"A bunch of insignificant stuff, it's really disappointing."

This is Ning Yu's only evaluation of the old bachelors, and it is also the recognized evaluation in everyone's hearts, because these people are really too bad, let alone beating the drums, they didn't even force the new bachelors to leave, and even retreated one by one.

If this was a real battlefield, the new bachelors, who had an absolute advantage in numbers, had actually been completely defeated, and even lost very badly, almost losing the battle on their knees.

Li Fu couldn't help but let out a long sigh and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, although there is something wrong with the scholars, please ask Your Majesty to be considerate, after all, talents are rare......

Shoufu Ning Zhongjing also frowned, no longer looked at the brawling soldiers, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, this matter cannot continue now, otherwise I am afraid of losing the dignity of the imperial court." ”

If you say that you lose your dignity, I'm afraid that you will lose your dignity at the first moment of swinging your fist, but if you don't stop it, it's true that you will kill people.

Ning Yu nodded lightly, no matter what, there are still thousands of people here who are grassroots officials who are about to pass the training of the Organization Department, if the training is not over, everyone will be colored, and it is indeed a little unsightly.

Everyone walked down the city wall with Ning Yu, came to the noon gate, and looked at the soldiers of the Fu Han Army who were lining up, the faces of the ministers were more or less worried, could it be that the first half had just ended, and the second half was about to begin?

But if it's just the scholars and the soldiers, they can fight on a par, but if they end up as soldiers, how can those soldiers survive?

On the contrary, Ning Yu didn't think about it so much, he looked at the soldiers who were lining up in front of him at this time, and then looked at the red and blood-red flag of the Fu Han Army, and a heartfelt smile appeared on his face.

In this country, I am afraid that only these people can be called the real backbone.

"I asked you to come here today to assemble, not because the country is in danger, but because I want to see you again."

Ning Yu looked around at everyone, although he couldn't name most of them, but Ning Yu had always remembered their appearance.

"Your Majesty summons you, and the ministers go to the soup and fire, and they will not give up."

One of the generals stood up, wearing a star on his shoulder, but his hands were completely gone, and one eye was gone, but the only remaining eye seemed to be lit with fire, shocking and profound.

"You've worked hard!"

Ning Yu's face was very serious, and he solemnly gave a military salute to the soldiers, which was a salute he gave to these soldiers as a part of Ning Chu, not just the emperor.

"Long live Your Majesty!"

All the soldiers roared loudly, and this sound instantly penetrated the walls of the imperial city, and even the soldiers who were fighting outside the noon gate were startled, and they stopped the brawl in a daze and looked in the direction of the noon gate.

Ning Yu smiled slightly and waved his arm, "Go, I don't want to see their blood defile my Vermilion Bird Avenue....... Drive those scholars out of this place, and if anyone disobeys, they will be captured or killed, and you will be yours. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

With a look of solemnity on the general's face, he saluted again before looking back at the soldiers, who he knew or didn't know.

"Your Majesty has an order, we should obey it!"

"Go to the soup and go to the fire, don't give up!"

The soldiers shouted loudly, picked up their muskets, and began to march towards the outside of the noon gate, and the sound of their footsteps and kicks suddenly covered out the sound of fighting outside.

When the noon gate was completely opened, rows of soldiers of the Fu Han Army maintained a neat line, the muskets on their shoulders were also flat, and the snow-bright bayonets reflected in the sunlight, which looked extremely dazzling.

Looking at the bright bayonets, the scholars did not have the slightest courage to resist, and they did not know who shouted, and everyone completely dispersed, and began to flee in all directions, whether it was a new bachelor or an old one, at this time it seemed that they were no longer enemies, but became poor people who were sympathetic to each other.

Except for those who had been beaten to the ground and unable to move, everyone else began to run in the other direction of Suzaku Street--Dead Dao Friends Do Not Die Poor Dao, if they are caught, I am afraid the result will be very miserable.

As for Shen Luochuan, he was lying on the ground crying, and he didn't think about it at all, as for his good brother Xu Zhai, he didn't know where he had gone........

At this time, Shen Weijun and the others, who were standing from a distance and watching, were taken aback, the appearance of the army was far more terrifying than they imagined, which also made it difficult for them to have the courage to fight, and as for other thoughts, they had already come to naught.

"Run...... Brother Shen, if we get caught, it's going to be terrible! The king's voice trembled a little, and he seemed to have noticed that something was wrong, and his feet moved backwards.

Zhou Weiqing, who has always been not afraid of heaven and earth, was also in cold sweat on his face at this time, he didn't expect the soldiers of the Fu Han Army to have such a strong murderous aura, even if it was so far away, he was a little frightened, looked at Shen Weijun, who was still calm, and said in a low voice: "I'm afraid this matter is planted today, Brother Shen, let's withdraw first, leave the green mountains here, don't be afraid of no firewood!" ”

Shen Weijun smiled coldly and sighed in a low voice: "Shen's green mountain is still there, but the firewood of the two of you is afraid that it is no longer burned!" ”

"What do you mean?"

"Brother Shen, what are you talking about?"

Zhou Weiqing and Wang Yongqi felt that something was wrong, they looked at Shen Weijun at this time, but they felt so strange.

Before Shen Weijun could say anything, he saw several men in green clothes or black cloth clothes approaching in their direction, and they were all holding handcuffs in their hands, and they were obviously shadow people.

Zhou Weiqing is not an uninformed person, he looked at Shen Weijun and said hatefully: "I didn't expect that you villain ......."

It's just that Zhou Weiqing didn't finish his sentence, he and Wang Yongqi were directly pressed to the ground by the shadow agent, and the leader of the secret agent glanced at Shen Weijun, just nodded, didn't say anything, and then took Zhou Weiqing and Wang Yongqi into the carriage parked nearby, and then drove away from the scene.

This arrest seems to have become a signal, I saw that many people at the scene were directly forced by the spies, and then tied into the carriage and taken away, the whole process was like a cloud of peers, there was almost no resistance, except for a boy who ran too fast, was shot and killed by the spies, and the rest were all caught.

Just when the large-scale search began on Suzaku Street, Ning Luoyuan was following the Nanjing City Guard General Shi Wei Qing at this time, and also began to search for the major gentry clans, among which the 2,000 soldiers of the Fu Han Army of the City Guard Regiment were divided into forty groups, and under the leadership of their respective team leaders, they began to search for Ji according to the map.

According to past experience, when searching for local clans, foreign soldiers are usually called in to prevent local soldiers from being tipped off, but the Nanjing City Guard Regiment is not needed, because the Nanjing City Guard Regiment is not a fixed establishment, and usually each division and regiment will take turns to score the value, and the time is limited to half a year, so it will not form a strong social relationship.

This kind of score system is very cumbersome, and it often needs to be decided by drawing lots, but Ning Yu still chooses to enforce the order, in order to ensure that the city guard system will not be infiltrated by local forces, and maintain the purity of its organization, on the other hand, it can also ensure the combat effectiveness of the troops through rotation, after all, an army that has not been on the battlefield for a long time, its combat effectiveness will degenerate very rapidly.

Of course, it is precisely because of this system that the city guard regiment will not be bribed at all in this large-scale raid, after all, in such a short period of time, it is not easy for the gentry to infiltrate, and even if it penetrates, it is meaningless, after all, as long as it takes half a year, what appears in front of everyone will be another army.

"The seventh group, the leader Deng Xiaobo, the target is the Zhou family in the south of the city!"

"Yes! Mission completion guaranteed! ”

"The eighth group, the leader is higher than Qin, the target is He Jia in the east of the city!"

"Yes! Mission completion guaranteed! ”

One by one, the leaders of each group, under the assignment of Ning Luoyuan and Shi Weiqing, led dozens of soldiers from their respective groups to march towards the residences of the major gentry and clans in Nanjing City, and the order they received was to bring back all these clans, and if there were recalcitrant ones, they would be killed!

At the same time, in the entire province of Ningchu, all the gentry involved in this imperial examination petition will also be arrested by the shadow secret agency personnel, together with the troops of the divisions and regiments stationed in the training field.
