Wenzhou Mansion, Yongjia County.

The county seat of Fuguo, where this government is located, ushered in a special army of soldiers and horses today.

There were more than 1,000 people in this army, but the appearance of the army was not neat, and some soldiers even lost their armor.

They were covered in blood, and it was clear that they had just experienced a fierce battle.

But judging by the attire, it is clear that this army is a Qing army.

The soldiers defending the city did not dare to delay, and hurriedly went to report to their generals.

Now the Qing general who stayed in Wenzhou is named Liu Yongfang, who is a banner man of the Han army.

The nobleman who promoted him at the beginning was Lang Tingzuo, the governor of Liangjiang.

It was Liu Yongfang who was loyal to Lang Tingzuo and obeyed his orders.

Lang Tingzuo sent Liu Yongfang to Wenzhou, also just in case.

After all, Wenzhou directly borders Fujian, and if he has any accidents, he can also withdraw to Wenzhou and then retreat to Fujian.

Leave a henchman in Wenzhou, he can be down-to-earth.

Liu Yongfang was working in the government office, and when he saw that the soldiers defending the city said that they had something important to report, he waved his hand and let him in.

The soldier guarding the city walked into the government office tremblingly, knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Lord Qiqi, an army of more than 1,000 people has been found outside the city, they claim to be from Taizhou, and they have been calling the door. The villain didn't dare to make an assertion, so he rushed to report to the chief soldier. ”

"Oh?"

Liu Yongfang stood up, walked up to the soldier and asked, "Are they under the banner of Governor Lang?" ”

"Look at the flag."

Liu Yongfang was overjoyed when he heard this.

Governor Lang really had a clever plan, and asked him to garrison Wenzhou in advance in case of emergency.

It seems that everything was expected by his old man.

"Prepare the horses, and the general soldier will personally go to meet them."

Liu Yongfang was already sure in his heart that the person who came was Lang Tingzuo, and he was anxious to ask to see this Bole who had the grace of knowing him.

But it was said that Liu Yongfang brought dozens of relatives to the city gate with horses and whips.

The crowd turned over and dismounted, and walked along the road to the city wall.

Liu Yongfang looked intently, and sure enough, he saw more than 1,000 soldiers standing outside the city gate on horseback.

These people are flying the banner of the Qing army, and they are also the dress of the Qing army, so there should be no problem.

But Liu Yongfang looked carefully a few times, but he didn't find Lang Tingzuo.

Could it be that this is just a detachment sent by Governor Lang?

Liu Yongfang was puzzled in his heart, so he asked at the top of his voice: "Dare to ask if the person who came is from the battalion under Governor Lang?" ”

Lang Tingzuo's confidant Liu Yongfang basically knows each other, and he can find out what is going on with a little questioning.

"Admiral Shi Lang, General Liu, open the door quickly."

Shi Lang?

After hearing this response, Liu Yongfang was stunned.

It is naturally impossible for him not to know Shi Lang, but in his impression, Shi Lang should not be regarded as Lang Tingzuo's henchman, at most he can only be said to be a celebrity.

There is still a big difference between a celebrity and a henchman, the celebrity may just be used, while the henchman can be reused.

Anyway, Shi Lang is also one of the biggest names around Lang Tingzuo, Liu Yongfang didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly said loudly: "General Shi, please wait a moment?" So and so he ordered the gates of the city to be opened. ”

However, it was said that after Liu Yongfang ordered someone to open the city gate, Shi Lang and others immediately galloped in impatiently.

Liu Yongfang stepped forward to greet him, clasped his fists and said with a smile: "The last general will see General Shi." ”

In terms of official rank? Shi Lang, the admiral of the naval division, must be higher than Liu Yongfang's total army.

But Liu Yongfang is not Shi Lang's subordinate? It is not under the jurisdiction of Shi Lang.

So Liu Yongfang actually doesn't need to be so polite to Shi Lang.

Why is he like this? still looked at Lang Tingzuo's face.

After all, Lang Tingzuo is very good to Shi Lang, and Liu Yongfang doesn't need to be rude in such a trivial matter and fall into the hands of others.

"Mr. Liu doesn't need to be polite? Shi came from afar? Let's go to the government and talk about it. ”

Shi Lang was dusty, forced out a smile, Liu Yongfang understood? He nodded lightly.

...

...

In the palace flower hall? Shi Lang and Liu Yongfang sat down as guests.

Maybe it's because you're too thirsty to march in a hurry? Shi Lang drank a teapot of tea in one go, and then he was satisfied? sighed: "General Liu? Taizhou has changed. ”

Liu Yongfang was taken aback when he heard this.

"What did General Shi say? Has Taizhou changed? ”

What is Taizhou? That's Governor Lang's residence.

Shi Lang said that Taizhou has changed? Doesn't that mean that Governor Long is in danger?

As a subordinate promoted by Lang Tingzuo, Liu Yongfang was very worried and asked, "How is Governor Lang?" What's going on? General Shi, say it quickly. ”

Shi Lang had long expected that Liu Yongfang would be so excited, and said unhurriedly: "General Liu, don't be impatient. This matter is a long story, and Rong Shi said it slowly. ”

Shi Lang swallowed a mouthful of spit? Then he continued: "This matter has to start with the rebel general Miao Fanglin." ”

Shi Lang mentioned Miao Fanglin? Liu Yongfang immediately became vigilant.

Miao Fanglin is the commander of Governor Lang's standard battalion? This matter must have something to do with Governor Lang.

"This Miao Fanglin is really a pig and a dog. Governor Lang treats him well? But he secretly communicated with the thief, and took advantage of Governor Lang's unpreparedness to open the city gate and let the thief enter the city. ”

Shi Lang made a gritted tooth expression, which was very convincing with his words.

In fact, there is a half-truth in what he said.

Is it really Miao Fanglin who really wanted to start a mutiny? Defect to the Ming army.

What is fake is that Miao Fanglin's small actions were fully seen by Lang Tingzuo and suppressed in advance.

Taizhou City was not broken because of Miao Fanglin.

The reason why Shi Lang said this was to dump the pot to Miao Fanglin, and secondly, to make Liu Yongfang die.

After all, Taizhou City has been broken, and no matter how great Lang Tingzuo is, it is a dead end.

A Qing court official of this level would be a dead end once he was captured by the Ming army.

The difference is just how to die.

Shi Lang had already thought before he came that Liu Yongfang was Lang Tingzuo's confidant, and if Shi Lang couldn't get rid of all the responsibilities, Liu Yongfang would definitely suspect him.

There happened to be a Miao Fanglin here, and Shi Lang naturally wanted to take advantage of it and take the opportunity to wash himself clean.

"This dog thief!"

Sure enough, after listening to Shi Lang's words, Liu Yongfang jumped up angrily.

"What about Governor Lang, why didn't Governor Lang come with General Shi?"

Liu Yongfang looked very excited, and her entire neck was flushed.

"Mr. Liu, calm down."

Shi Lang pretended to be extremely painful, and sighed: "Governor Lang was going to break through with Shi, but he was shot from behind by Miao Fanglin and fell off the horse. The traitors swarmed and tied up Governor Lang, presumably they had already dedicated themselves to the thieves at this moment, right? ”

Shi Lang squeezed out some tears as he spoke, and wiped them with his sleeve.

Liu Yongfang almost couldn't breathe when he heard this, and he turned his back on his back.

"How so? How so? ”

He couldn't accept the result. Governor Lang is his great benefactor, and now that he has not repaid the favor, how can Governor Lang die?
