Chapter 135: The goose plucks the feathers and peels the skin

Ningwu Pass is 300 miles away from Lou Fu, and there are riverside avenues along the way, and it takes mule and horse-drawn carts about six or seven days to arrive.

The convoy passed the Ningwu Pass, and two days later arrived at the Ninghua Thousand Households, and saw from a distance that the gate of the guard built on the mountain was open, and a small officer led dozens of old, weak, sick and disabled people to stand outside the door, greeting them with a smile on his face.

Qin Chuan called Li Dingliang over and gave a few orders, and the latter called two Guan Emperor troops, camelled two stones of grain and thirty catties of meat, and threw the grain and meat at the door of the thousand households.

"This is the reward of the hundred households, three catties of grain and half a catty of meat for one person, if anyone dares to deduct it, when the hundred households come back, there will be no forgiveness."

The calmer named Mo Dezai, the smile on his face froze.

Behind him, dozens of black and thin old and weak people knelt down one after another, kowtowing to Qin Chuan from a distance, and shouted vigorously in their mouths, "Thank you, my lord, my lord's generosity."

Qin Chuan didn't stop, and walked away without looking back.

After two more days, we arrived at Jingle County.

I saw that outside the north gate of the county seat, in the open space on the edge of Fenshui, a large row of grass huts had been temporarily erected, which were full of wine, meat, pasta, melons and fruits.

Outside the grass hut stood a dense crowd, led by a tall military general, dressed in a red embroidered official uniform with a lion on his chest.

The military attache who can fight lions is at least a second-grade member.

Previously, a spy had already reported that Du Yingtang, the commander of the Shanxi Metropolitan Command, had prepared wine and meat in Jingle, and was ready to lead the officials and villagers of Jingle to welcome the victorious return of the Lou Fu Guan Imperial Army.

That second-grade member should be Du Yingtang.

Next to the man stood a fat man dressed in civil official clothes, it was He Changbao, the magistrate of the county, and next to him, there was also the master Chen Congzhi, and a group of anchors and wardens Liufang and other small officials.

Next to it was a group of old men and young men dressed in mink coats, who looked either rich or expensive.

Qin Chuan learned from his subordinates that that group was from the Wu family, and the leader was Wu Yongqian, the master of Wu.

In addition to the Wu family, the businessmen, middle-sized and small households in the county also came, densely crowded by the river.

In the distance, as soon as they saw Qinchuan's grain, the group of people began to beat gongs and drums.

The leading group of officials also began to greet them.

Qin Chuan felt a little funny.

The Wu family almost met with themselves not long ago, and they also tied up their four sons to extort a batch of grain, He Changbao is a two-faced and three-knife goods, and not long ago he probably wanted to join in the fun and kill himself.

Du Yingtang came to Jingle, probably to investigate his own criminal evidence.

But now, these people are preparing good wine and meat one by one, beating gongs and drums and greeting themselves with a smile on their faces.

It's a fucking strange world.

After shaking his head and smiling, Qin Chuan said to the side: "Pass the order, the big guy will rest for a day, eat his mother's, drink his mother's, and pack everything that can't be eaten and take it away, and continue to eat on the way." ”

"Yes."

Liu Youzhu on the side was very excited, and quickly passed the order down.

Soon, hundreds of Guan Emperor troops erupted in bursts of cheers.

"Hahahaha, congratulations to Qin Baihu on his triumphant return, Qin Baihu has made great achievements in this battle, and the addition of officials to the knighthood is just around the corner."

Du Yingtang took the lead and said with a smile on his face towards Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan dismounted, neither knelt nor bowed, only hugged his fists and arched his hand: "Xiaguan Qin Chuan, I have seen Master Du." ”

Du Yingtang secretly said that this kid was really crazy, but he still smiled on his face and said: "Come on, come on, all the villagers have already prepared the wine and meat of the labor army, Qin Baihu and all the soldiers will eat and drink quickly, and then slowly talk to the official about the number of battles outside the gate." ”

He Changbao also led a group of county officials to come up, and congratulated Qin Chuan one after another, followed by the Wu family and a group of villager representatives, and the sound of congratulatory and flattering sycophants was endless.

Qin Chuan gave the group a face, and after a polite circle, he led Li Dingliang, Liu Youzhu and other subordinates towards the grass shed.

Because Zhao Wu and Liao Sangun were deserters, they were afraid of being recognized, so they only hid behind and followed hundreds of Guan Imperial troops to the large row of grass huts.

Qin Chuan took the two pillars and pillars, and sat in the chief with Du Yingtang and He Changbao, and Wu Yongqian was also invited over because he had produced a lot of wine, meat, grain and rice, and he was fortunate to eat wine with a second-grade official.

As soon as they entered the table, He Changbao and Wu Yongqian took turns to toast Qin Chuan and Du Yingtang.

Qin Chuan was not worried that the other party would poison the wine, this was already Jingle County, only eighty miles away from his old nest, and under the eyes of thousands of villagers, he would not dare to poison them if they were ten dares.

After three rounds of drinking, Qin Chuan told him how he got the secret report of Jiannu's southward journey, how he led his troops out of the customs to investigate, and how he met Jiannu by chance and attacked and killed the other party.

But he didn't mention the Fan family, nor did he mention the grain, only said that he fought two battles with Jiannu, beheaded a lot of people, and captured alive the other party's Jiala Ezhen and a Mele Zhangjing, as well as more than 30 Bayalas.

He didn't mention the Fan family, and others naturally didn't dare to mention it, and the hundreds of stone grain trucks were placed there, and no one dared to ask where the grain came from.

Because, the commander of the dignified army is here, if it is mentioned that the Fan family collaborated with the enemy to sell grain, and even sold iron and gunpowder, Du Yingtang had to angrily denounce the Fan family for collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country in public, and vowed to ensure that it must be strictly investigated to the end and eradicate the thieves who collaborated with the enemy.

The feast was thus spent in an atmosphere of harmony and flattery.

After being full of wine and meat, He Changbao suddenly said that he had never seen what Jiannu looked like and wanted to see it.

Qin Chuan explained a few words to Li Dingliang and Liu Youzhu, and the two went for a while, and then brought Ah Shan, who was tied up with five flowers, and Baturu who was lying on the wooden board.

As soon as they saw the sleek heads of these two people and the tiny money rat tail on the back of their heads, thousands of villagers around them hula-la-hula, and they were amazed at the two people.

Although Baturu could not move, he was still fierce, staring at the villagers around him with a fierce face, and there were vicious insults and low roars in his throat.

The villagers were so frightened that they retreated, not daring to approach this beastly Jiannu.

In contrast, Ahsan seemed much calmer, he was not seriously injured, he was only knocked unconscious by a wooden plank, and now his injuries are completely healed.

He knew that he had arrived in the Ming Dynasty.

Twelve years ago, he once defected to Houjin with his family and wanted to defect to Daming, but was pursued by Houjin Belle Amin, shot and killed one of his sons, shot and wounded and led troops to surround him, his younger brother Adahai was seriously injured Houjin a general, rescued him, and the two brothers fled to the border of Daming, because they were not allowed to enter the customs, and they were concerned about their children, and finally returned to Houjin.

That rebellion was because his father took them to take refuge in Houjin and belonged to the red flag of Dabeile Daishan, thinking that he could find a way out for the clansmen and make contributions on the battlefield, but he did not expect to be treated as a slave by Daishan, no different from the clothed slaves, and they defected to the Ming Dynasty when they could not bear it.

After returning, Nurhachi did not embarrass them, changed them to the Zhenglan Banner, let them attack Liaoyang with the army, and was awarded the second-class general for their military merits.

The good times did not last long, his younger brother Ada Hai was condemned to death by Huang Taiji because of a series of crimes, Ada Hai fled, was chased back and beheaded, Ah Shan and several nephews were angry, and once again led the clansmen to defect to the Ming Dynasty.

When he arrived at the border of the Ming Dynasty, Ahsan first sent an envoy to negotiate with the Ming army about the surrender, but he did not expect the Ming army to kill his envoy and take the head to invite merit, and in desperation, Ahsan had to return to Houjin again.

Huang Taiji didn't embarrass him, just like that, he relied on his combat courage and slowly became the white flag of Melle Ezhen.

I just didn't expect that I wanted to return to the Ming Dynasty twice but couldn't, and today I was finally able to set foot on the land of the Ming Dynasty, but I was captured alive.

really responded to that sentence to make people.

Thinking of this, Ah Shan couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Let him sit down and have a drink."

Qin Chuan could see that this person was different from the fierce and vicious Turush, he was a person who knew the times, so he asked Li Dingliang to release his rope.

Ah Shan moved his joints, and according to the etiquette of the Central Plains, he hugged his fist towards Qin Chuan and said, "Thank you, General Qin." ”

Qin Chuan said with a smile: "It's all here, so you don't have to be too polite, eat some wine and meat to warm up." ”

"Thank you, General Qin."

Ah Shan was not polite, and directly picked up a wine glass that had just been added to him on the table, and drank all the wine in the cup.

Du Yingtang, He Changbao and others have been looking at him carefully, like looking at a monster.

Qin Chuan turned his head and smiled at Du Yingtang: "Master Du, let's talk about business." ”

Du Yingtang was slightly stunned, and the people next to him also froze.

Wu Yongqian took the lead in getting up and said apologetically to Du Yingtang: "Master Du, the old man still has some family affairs to explain, so I will not accompany you." ”

Then He Changbao also stood up and said with a smile: "Lord Du, Lord Qin, the lower officials will go to entertain the soldiers first, and the two adults will drink first, drink first." ”

After the two left, only Du Yingtang, Qin Chuan and Dingliang Zhu were left at this table, as well as Ah Shan, who was pouring himself a drink.

Qin Chuan put down a lamb rib in his hand and said lightly: "Lord Du, the head of the real slave has been sold by me for almost all, there are only eighty-five levels left, and there are still one hundred and sixty levels of Tartar, plus one of these heads, you can count a thousand stone of grain." ”

"But lying on the plank, that Turush...... A living Jiala's true can be worth a thousand stone of grain. ”

"As for Lord Ashan, a young man who is alive and well, and it seems that he has the possibility of surrendering, he can get two thousand stone of grain."

"Add up to a total of 4,000 stone of grain, how about handing over grain in one hand and handing over people in the other?"

Hearing his words, Du Yingtang opened his mouth and couldn't say a word.

He had long heard of the insatiable greed of the surnamed Qin, and he would ask people for money whenever he had the opportunity, and he would peel off a layer of skin when he saw people.

I thought that the surname Qin would ask him to help send the first-level prisoners to the capital together with the battle report, so that he could add his name to the book, at least to get the credit of being well-planned and strategizing.

Unexpectedly, this guy actually asked himself for food.

Doesn't he know what level of official he is?

A mere sixth-grade petty official asked for money from a second-grade senior official, which is simply unprecedented, and there is no one to come.

This guy is too bold.

Qin Chuan could see that he didn't want to give food, so he smiled faintly and said: "Master Du, the head of a real slave can be sold for twenty taels of the first level, five taels of tartars, and the sum of the hands of the lower officials can also be sold for two thousand five hundred taels, and there are so many people who want it, you look at it, those general soldiers, generals, governors, etc., will swarm like flies seeing, and this head is not enough to sell at all." ”

"But, Lord Du is also a Qin official, how can he ignore his own family and cheapen outsiders? You say yes, Lord Du. ”

The corners of Du Yingtang's mouth twitched, and he smiled awkwardly: "Qin Baihu said that he was joking, the official had a clean breeze on his sleeves, where did he get thousands of stone grain, this official just wanted to help Qin Baihu prepare a recital, and the capital commanded the envoy and the head and the prisoner, as well as the battle report and the recital before the case was truthfully submitted to Jingshitian." ”

"At that time, the emperor will inevitably be happy, and the exploits of beheading hundreds of Jiannu will be enough for Qin Baihu to be promoted several levels in a row."

"Hehehe."

Qin Chuan smiled again and said, "Master Du, Xiaguan doesn't dare to climb so high at once, for fear of falling and hurting, Xiaguan just wants to get some practical benefits." ”

"As for Lord Du's sleeves, there is not so much food...... Adults can completely let the gentlemen donate, this is the food of the labor army, so many cautious masters in Jingle and Lan County who understand the righteousness, if one family donates two hundred stones, twenty families are enough. ”

"By the way, the lower officials heard that Lord Han of the Thousand Households of Ninghua Thousand Households, Lord Xue, the commander of the Zhenxi Guard, and the deputy chief soldier of Shanxi who guarded the old camp fort, the lower officials don't know what the surname of the deputy chief soldier is, but I only know that the above three adults have said that if the lower officials can return triumphantly, they will donate 500 stone of grain to each of them to work for the army."

"Xia Guan came back in a hurry, and he didn't have time to visit those adults, why don't Lord Du go to thank them for Qin? It is not difficult to retrieve the 1,500 stone of grain and get enough of 4,000 stone. ”

Hearing this, Du Yingtang opened his mouth again and couldn't say a word.

Even Ah Shan, who was pouring himself a drink on the side, shook his head and sighed inexplicably.
