Section 409 Dispatch of troops
In later generations, when Tiaozi caught a prisoner, he would shout: "Police, raise your hands!" ”
The New York slivers would shout: "NYPD! ”
The Hong Kong Tiaozi will shout: "Bad people! ”
The Indian sliver will shout: "Priyanka Chopra! ”...... This is nonsense.
In short, it is very necessary for the strip to declare his identity out loud when facing the prisoner. The first is to deter prisoners, and the second is to screen out the melon-eating masses who may obstruct the performance of official duties.
This was also true in the seventeenth century.
As a hereditary Suzhou Jinyi Wei Baihu, Ma Yaotang has of course performed official duties, so he is very proficient in using this process.
In this era, those who can work hundreds of adults in person will inevitably not be gangsters. Generally speaking, Ma Baihu arrested prisoners of the rank of civil and military officials and wealthy merchants.
Such a person must have a large number of followers and cronies around him. A few people can catch people, and they can only rely on the authority given by the system. So at this time, it is very important to show your identity first.
Ma Baihu is the same today. At the same time as he stepped forward with the brocade guard waist card, he had already shouted out the number of words.
The rest of the preset process was very easy and enjoyable. Ma Baihu will catch the prisoner in the middle of the trembling guards, and then take the people away.
In this process, the cadres who were shocked by the prestige of Jinyiwei and others would not resist in the slightest, for fear that they would also be implicated in the Jinyiwei prison that made people talk about tigers.
Therefore, Ma Baihu, who seemed to be full of majesty, had already begun to calculate the "harvest" of this errand in his heart at this moment - in addition to the benefits promised by the master of the Xu family, this Xiong Dao himself heard that he was also a well-known wealthy businessman, and after he caught this guy back, he would be able to knock out a large amount of money.
At the same time that Ma Baihu was skillfully following the process, a loud "bang" sounded in his ears. This sound shocked the Lord Baihu and completely deafened his ears.
And when Ma Baihu, who was full of surprise, looked back, he found that the people he brought had all been cut off his arms and pressed to the ground at this time.
And the loud bang just now was the short-shirted guards standing on both sides, and at the same time they used the firearms in their hands to shoot the empty guns above the heads of the brocade guards.
Ma Baihu, who was dizzy and his ears were buzzing, was kicked in the crook of his leg the next moment, and by the way, he knocked off the black gauze soft hat on his head, and became a prisoner with a cloak of hair.
"Bold! Dare to besiege the Son of Heaven's personal guards, the court officials, surnamed Xiong, aren't you afraid of being beheaded all over the house?! ”
After shaking his head to figure out the situation, although Ma Baihu was forcibly pressed into a kneeling and kowtowing shape, he was not afraid at this time, but he was furious and asked loudly.
"Haha." Xiong Dao, who had been standing on the steps for a long time to watch the play, first beckoned.
Then someone carried out two Nanmu official hat chairs, and Master Xiong and the bald monk sat comfortably on the chairs, posing as if they were going to the court to try the case.
After being lit with a cigarette in his hand by the entourage, Master Xiong first took a puff and hid his face in the smoke, and then said happily: "Ma Yaotang, didn't you inquire about what place I am here before you came from Suzhou this morning to send me to death?" ”
Ma Baihu finally felt that something was wrong at this moment: this Xiong Dao and his subordinates were not only fearless of official authority, but also obviously prepared for his intentions.
So Ma Yaotang stopped struggling and scolding at this moment, and opened his mouth to ask: "I don't know what's strange here?" ”
"Haha." Xiong Dao shook his head again and again, with a look of regret: "At first glance, it is a bad person, and I don't know that I was sold." Still a fool, you know all day long that you can drink flower wine in Suzhou City, right? ”
Ma Yaotang's heart sank at this moment: Xiong Dao's two sentences really spoke about his situation.
Today's errand was indeed urgently explained by Lord Qianhu last night. In addition, Ma Yaotang, a hereditary rich N generation in Suzhou, spends a lot of time feasting and having fun on weekdays, and he really doesn't care much about what happens in the countryside hundreds of miles away.
Seeing Ma Baihu's face change, Xiong Dao, who was sitting on the stage, sighed again at this time, and then glanced at the monk beside him, nodded at the same time, and waved his hand: "Pull them out and slaughter them, just leave two to go back and report the news." ”
Ma Baihu, who hadn't figured out what kind of trap he had fallen into, suddenly found out at this moment that he and his subordinates were about to be slaughtered?
However, the reality is so cruel, after the "bang" two shots, the two fans who fell at the end have been pushed to the gate of the compound and eaten the guns.
Ma Baihu, who was extremely incredulous, was frightened. At this moment, he blessed his soul, and in the following gunfire and blood, he instantly figured out a lot of things.
For example, why did the Lord Qianhu, who has always been unscrupulous, hand over such a fat difference to him; For example, why did the local palm print hundred households in Jiading County have a "foot disease" a few days ago, so they couldn't take this errand.
However, it was useless to figure everything out, and when Ma Baihu found that he was being dragged to the gate of the courtyard, he couldn't help but struggle violently. While lying on the ground and not leaving, he shouted: "The surname Xiong, killing Jinyiwei is a big crime of rebellion, I am a six-grade hundred households who wear flying fish suits, you can't kill me, you can't kill me!" ”
"Hehe, if I don't kill you, how can Master Xu label me as a thief?" Xiong Dao looked at the only senior fan wearing a flying fish suit on the field: "You have to kill a person with enough weight to be a thief!" ”
Ma Baihu was beaten to death like a chicken in front of the port office. The gorgeous flying fish suit on his body failed to save his stupid fate, chicken, you are too beautiful and useless, chickens are chickens after all.
If you look at it from another angle, Ma Baihu's death is still heavier than Mount Tai's. This death gave the long-red-eyed Title Deed Alliance an excuse to start pushing forward the follow-up troop transfer plan.
........................
In other words, if you really want to mobilize troops and horses, in this increasingly chaotic situation at the end of the Ming Dynasty, there are still many loopholes in the land deed alliance to exploit.
First of all, as soon as Ma Baihu was confirmed to be shot, Suzhou Jinyi Wei Qianhu sent a fast horseman, with the "Mao Thief Bear Road" to kill Jinyi Wei Baihu in public.
The rapid riding hurried overnight, and the next morning he arrived from Suzhou to the Jinyi Guard, which was located in Nanjing, and commanded the Yamen.
Before this, the land deed alliance accurately judged that Xiong Dao would definitely not be taken away by Jinyiwei, and the two sides would inevitably clash. So even if Ma Baihu goes to the port and doesn't die, several of his subordinates will be killed by the old man afterwards, and then Xiong Dao will definitely be labeled as "killing officials and rebelling".
In this way, all parties concerned can send people to do the work in advance. So long before Ma Baihu went to Zhangsu Port to die, the envoys sent by the Title Deed Alliance to all parties were already on the road.
And at this time, the messenger who had already been sent before had already dealt with the key people in the Jinyi Guard's yamen, and now he was waiting for this official document to arrive.
Because Nanjing is the capital of Liu, the strength of the Jinyi Guard is quite strong: there are far more officials and nobles than the rest of the provinces, and the town guards and eunuchs and Jinyi Guards who are responsible for monitoring the hundred officials for the emperor have real power.
After receiving the official document, the commander on duty did not delay, and after marking on it the opinion of agreeing with the "thief", the official document came to the Yamen of the Governor of Yingtian at lightning speed.
As mentioned earlier, the backer of the Xu family in the court is Xu Bengao, the commander of Jinyiwei. Although Xu Bengao, the commander, is a fictitious title and is not responsible for sitting in the court, because he is valued by Chongzhen, Xu Bengao has begun to transfer to the Governor's Office of the Five Armies in recent years and has become a high-ranking figure in the military.
In this case, Xu Bengao, who was originally a hereditary Jinyiwei thousand-household, has a deep origin and connections in the Jinyiwei system. Therefore, including sending Ma Baihu to death, including Nanjing's cooperation in issuing official documents, this series of actions used the real hard power of the Xu family.
After Ying Tianxun Yamen received the official letter, things were handled better...... The land deed alliance and the governor's yamen are both civil officials, and the lobbyists who came in advance and the subordinate officials of the fuya, drank tea and got things done.
Why are they subordinates? Because the boss is not there...... The boss has gone to King Qin.
The governor of Yingtian at this point in time is Cao Wenheng, a native of Henan.
After this person took office, he not only immediately commanded the troops to exterminate all the bandits in the Jurong area of Nanjing, but also sent troops next year in history to exterminate the remnants of the Japanese who were entrenched on Chongming Island and the mouth of the Yangtze River.
Coincidentally, not long ago, Cao Futai, who received an urgent document from the capital, immediately led his troops to set off and went north along the canal to King Qin.
So there is a big hole to exploit here: the remaining subordinates of the governor's yamen can easily write on this official document that they agree with the opinion of "suppressing the thief", and then transfer the official document to the place where it should go...... Theoretically, this is overstepping his authority, but in this current vacuum, the subordinate officials have a lot of excuses to shirk afterwards.
So where did this document end up? Jin Shanwei.
As for what army to use to solve Bear Road, the Title Deed Alliance also took a lot of thought.
First of all, since the eight hundred elite lake bandits were all slaughtered by Xiong Dao as chickens, then ordinary guards don't have to think about it, this kind of chicken is not even as good as chickens, it is purely chicken feed.
Secondly, the most elite strategic troops, such as the town standard and the Fubiao, cannot be transferred by the land deed alliance - these are all strategic forces, and they cannot be fooled by official documents without the personal orders of the governor and the general soldier.
Therefore, it can be mobilized, and its combat effectiveness is quite good, and now it is the battalion soldiers stationed in Jinshanwei.
Jinshanwei is at the mouth of Hangzhou Bay, which is not only a guard station, but also the residence of the general of Hangjiahu.
During the Jiajing period, due to the turmoil, the imperial court set up a general army in Zhejiang, and at the same time set up four generals, including Hangjiahu and Ning Shao.
Later, after the Japanese rebellion subsided, the Zhejiang General Army was also canceled, and these sub-guards and generals were retained.
Therefore, what the land deed alliance mobilized this time was the battalion soldiers in the hands of General Hang Jiahu. To be precise, it was the general's subordinates, training the soldiers and horses under Wang Deqiao.
