Chapter 51: The Poor Dagger (I)

As he spoke, he raised his eyebrows, and pinched the thumb, index finger and middle finger of his right hand and rubbed them together. Not to mention the sincerity, whether they can understand it, just the look and movement, even a fool can see that this is a benefit.

is still the same sentence, the king of Hades is easy to see, and the little ghost is difficult to pick. The few people led by him smiled bitterly, and then Zhang Ying, the general of Jingyang, expressed a positive attitude towards this "hint", and said that the benefits were on the ship, and they could send someone back to get it immediately.

"Well, Zhang Shuai is worthy of being a famous general in Zhejiang, and he has heard of the famous name for a long time, like thunder, and it is a blessing to be able to see it today......"

There are benefits, the inspection immediately changed color, and the face was so pleasant that people felt goosebumps fell to the ground. Later, the benefits were delivered, it was a hundred taels of tickets, although it was Zhejiang's ticket number, it was a little troublesome to pick up, but one hundred taels of silver, this ritual was really a lot, so that the inspection should be even a smile.

"We are all sincerely obedient to the imperial court, and please inspect and report our situation as soon as possible. After the deed is completed, there is still a heart to send. ”

"Zhang Shuai, this is polite, polite. If they are all as bold as Zhang Shuai, how can there be anything difficult to do. Seeing the ticket, the patrol is not good at talking, and even if he said that the matter was wrapped up in him: "Don't hide it from Zhang Shuai and everyone, Haikou has occupied Haitan Island some time ago, and now the boss of the Fujun is vigorously reorganizing the army and practicing martial arts, and there is a shortage of sailors like you to fight Haikou in the future." After verifying the soldiers, ships, weapons, and other items of the kings, the lower officials sent someone to report them, and the kings waited for the good news. ”

It turned out that Zheng Chenggong's sailor had just taken control of Haitan Island in the south of Fuzhou Prefecture, and he was naturally beyond the reach of this place. Putting aside the last doubts, the next step was nothing more than the inspection procedure, and the inspector followed them back to the dock with the people of the inspection department, and examined the situation of their fleet in detail.

“…… soldiers, more than 670; 37 large and small ships; There are four counterfeit silver square seals, 12 pseudo-customs defenses, four pseudo-edicts, and pseudo-shams, seventy-nine red-clothed cannons, and many other artillery armor banners......"

This is the total belongings of three generals including Jingyang General Zhang Ying, six general military officers, eleven deputy generals, staff generals, guerrilla and other military generals, and a civilian official of the Ministry of War, a total of 21 people.

For these, the inspection said that the soldiers, ships and weapons could be kept by themselves, and the seal letter would be handed over to the governor Zhang Xuesheng in person when he went to Fuzhou. But for the flag, he had to hand it over to him directly for safekeeping, after all, they were already people who were going to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, and it was unseemly to keep the banner of the Ming army to enter Fuzhou.

"I understand below, I understand below, we are all sincerely obedient to the Qing Dynasty, and we have no thoughts at all."

"Of course the lower officials know this."

Zhang Ying hurriedly sent someone to bring the flag, the inspector nodded with a smile, and then the corners of his mouth twitched, implying that the commander of the fleet they came earlier than them was a very unknown guy. Therefore, he felt that it was unsafe to let him go to Fuzhou so rashly, so he naturally had to stay for a period of time and observe before he could make a decision.

"Look, what kind of head are we shaving?"

Zhang Ying asked tentatively, but the inspector said, "Don't worry, when you go to Fuzhou, you will shave your hair in front of the old man of Fujun, so that the old man will be happy to see it" and slowed down this most important thing.

Money can make the ghost grind, and the process can be saved, and if it can be exempted, it doesn't take much effort, the inspection will write the corresponding report, and send someone to Fuzhou in front of them.

It couldn't be better for them to get things done as quickly as possible. happily sent away the inspection, and the next thing is nothing more than waiting for news.

"As the inspection said just now, it will only take three days at the earliest, and there will be news. He said that he also had a few kind words for us in the paperwork......"

"It's just that the villain has the ambition, I think that all of us are not low in official positions, but if we want to bow down and be small in front of a nine-grade petty official, it is a big loss."

"Be content, there are 3,000 soldiers and horses in the hands of a general soldier in the Qing Dynasty, and our group of people together is less than 700 people. With this little bit of people, can the general soldiers, hanging seals or something be eaten as food? ”

During the Southern Ming Dynasty, the phenomenon of abuse of lords and officials was serious. In this, if it is not counted that the Yongli Dynasty has a different surname to destroy the ancestral system and break through the lower limit, then the Lu Jian Dynasty is the most serious one. In the eastern part of Zhejiang, a stockade is set up, either the general soldier hangs the seal, or the squire is the imperial history, and it is nothing like them.

"Well, we're all fast. Look at that Jiang Meiao, don't you have to continue to wait here? ”

On the way, the inspection also introduced this, saying that this was originally where Zheng Cai was entrenched. Later, Zheng Cai was persuaded by the guy named Chen Kai and went to the Zhongzuo Institute to lose his sincerity to Zheng Chenggong. For this reason, Zheng Cai's subordinates were dissatisfied, and a man named Cai Xing went directly to Fuzhou to surrender to Cheng, and as a result, there was some chaos in Fuzhou. And the one called Jiang Meiao originally planned to go to the Zhongzuo Institute, but who knew that he changed his mind halfway through, so he returned here, because he didn't know the rules very well, so he was afraid that he and Cai Xing would make some trouble, so he stayed here for the time being.

The meaning of these words is nothing more than that Jiang Meiao didn't give enough benefits to the inspection, and now she is wearing small shoes, and they don't care too much about this. But in the evening, that Jiang Meiao came uninvited, saying that she was here to visit them.

Jiang Meiao is Zheng Cai's old department, and during the honeymoon period between Zheng Cai and Lu Jianguo, they also intersected with each other. Now they are all fallen people at the end of the world, and they have a closeness in it. And more importantly, they also wanted to know more about the situation in Fujian and the coastal areas of Fujian, so they had to be prepared to clear the past, and simply invited Jiang Meiao to Zhang Ying's ship.

After the greetings, the situation in Zhejiang and the situation in Fujian were exchanged between the two sides. The reason why these Zhejiang Ming troops came to surrender to the Qing Dynasty was nothing more than despair of the future, and Jiang Meiao's situation was different, Zheng Cai had already attached Zheng Chenggong, and Zheng Chenggong also had Zheng Cai's old department under his account, and Jiang Meiao was logical in the past. But in Jiang Meiao's words, Zheng Chenggong discriminated against them, Zheng Cai's old department, and the treatment of Yang Chaodong and other generals who had surrendered earlier was not very good.

"I see."

"Hey, don't hide it from you, for more than a year, although I have followed Jianguo Gong to do some sea trade, my life has been tight. It's not that there is no silver, but I'm afraid it's hard to calm down, and if you dot here, the governor's yamen and other places will also be dotted. Hey, so this time I want to borrow some money from you, and pay it back twice afterwards. ”
