Chapter 12 The Wanderer
Wang Jinqian was silent in thought, thinking about how to refuse, and at the same time, he couldn't provoke the Lin Ziran in front of him to be mad, and then cut him down.
Although he fled with his men at noon, he was not in the city, but when he fled back to the city, he heard about it
The Guang'an rebels just fired an empty cannon at this Lin Ziran's side, and this young doctor was furious on the spot, screaming and fighting back, and it is said that he almost cut off his henchman Luo Mazi.
It can be seen that this is a ruthless person!
Wang Jinqian comforted himself: he is a civilized person, there is no need to deal with such a reckless man, he still has to carefully consider the language and politely refuse.
But when he looked up at Lin Ziran, the words of refusal came to his lips, but he just didn't dare to say it!
When it finally came to his mouth, the words became like this: "My lord, it's not that the subordinate officials don't want to give it, but they really don't have so much money!" ”
Lin Ziran didn't care: "Oh, how much can you take out from the town guard mansion now?" ”
Wang Jinqian said: "One thousand, even if you are temporarily looking for a big family in the city to borrow money, I am afraid that you can only get two thousand!" ”
Although he didn't dare to say anything about his complete refusal, Wang Jinqian still kept some of it for himself when the matter came.
But Lin Ziran suddenly snorted and said, "Only two thousand? But this official heard that the town guard mansion has recently collected the autumn tax in advance, and it has also collected a sum of money to suppress the bandits! ”
Wang Jinqian has worked for half a month in the past half a month, Lin Ziran is naturally clear, after all, Qingshan Town is such a big place, Wang Jinqian was unscrupulous to make money some time ago, how could he hide it.
Lin Ziran estimated that Wang Jinqian had at least made thousands of dollars during this period of time.
Hearing Lin Ziran's words, Wang Jinqian said with a sad face: "My lord, there are really only more than two thousand!" ”
What he said was true, they really only looted more than 2,000 in the past half a month.
However, at this time, Lin Ziran jumped with thick eyebrows, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and then said unhurriedly: "Only two thousand? ”
When Wang Jinqian heard this, he gritted his teeth: "Three thousand, if the town guard mansion is all taken out, there will only be three thousand!" ”
While saying this, he was dripping blood in his heart, these three thousand, not only took out all the income of half a month, but even the remaining hundreds of them some time ago were gone.
It's a hard life!
After more than a month of hard work, it was not easy to get 5,000 Hengyuan, but half a month ago, Lin Ziran took 2,000, and now he took 3,000, and there was nothing left.
As the so-called bad luck, everyone has to be unlucky together, so Wang Jinqian continued: "However, there are still many big families in the city, especially Boss Wang of the ironware workshop, who is rumored to be rich!" ”
If Boss Wang hears this, he will probably have to scold, you Wang Jinqian, you can die by yourself, why did you pull me up!
Lin Ziran carefully looked at Wang Jinqian's expression, and his face remained the same: "Well, that's very good!" ”
Immediately after beckoning, he called Luo Mazi in again and ordered: "You take a team of people and follow Wang Zhenshou to raise money for the war!" ”
Wang Jinqian was also relieved when he heard this, this Lin Ziran finally didn't continue to force, otherwise he insisted that they take the money out of the town guard mansion, he didn't have it, and maybe something would happen.
After letting Wang Jinqian and Luo Mazi go out, Lin Ziran went to the city again to inspect it.
The city was guarded by men under his command, and nothing went wrong with it.
And those Guang'an rebels outside the city are already encamped, and the war will not break out for a while.
But by tomorrow, it is estimated that another big war will break out.
After a bad night, the next day I woke up with the rebels of Quang An outside the city, and in the morning they had tried to make a tentative attack.
However, they had just approached the range of 400 meters, and before their artillery could fire, they were driven out by Lin Ziran with Mini rifles.
The other party didn't have any cover, let alone trenches or anything like that, so he swaggered forward, naturally he couldn't withstand the accurate shooting of the Mini rifle.
After some attempts, the opponent threw down a corpse and paused the attack.
But their next actions made Lin Ziran a little worried, because they actually began to build trenches, pile up breastwork, and build artillery positions.
That's not good.
"My lord, it looks like they're going to hide behind the breastwork and shoot!" Luo Mazi immediately said: "In this way, it will be difficult for us to hit them!" ”
Lin Ziran didn't have a good way to deal with this, and the Guang'an rebels dug trenches, piled up breastwalks, and then approached the artillery, and hid behind the bunker.
The best way for such an enemy is, naturally, to bombard him with artillery!
But Lin Ziran only had two three-pound small cannons on hand, and this kind of small cannon still belongs to a short-barreled cannon, which can only fire shotshots, let alone hit 400 meters, even if it is 300 meters, it is enough to choke.
So Lin Ziran pondered a little and said: "Come and shoot a few good hands, specifically target the people they dig trenches, don't be afraid of wasting bullets, they will hit as soon as they emerge!" ”
Although the other party is digging a trench, and he is still hiding in the trench and digging forward, he will always show his head, and if his marksmanship is good enough, he can still hit it.
It doesn't take much, hitting a few is enough to make the opponent throw a mouse.
When Luo Mazi heard this, his eyes lit up again: "Adults are really adults, as soon as I thought about it, I came up with such a simple and effective way, I, Luo Mazi, will accept you if I don't accept anyone, just obey you!" ”
Lin Ziran naturally ignored his praise again!
Since noon, Luo Mazi has squatted on the head of the city with a few fake soldiers with good marksmanship, and he will fight when he sees the Guang'an rebels coming up.
Even Lin Ziran was aiming at it with a gun, after all, he inherited the good marksmanship of the original, and this kind of long-distance shooting was quite suitable for him.
It's just that it's hard to hit, because those Guang'an rebels are also smart, and they have always been cats, hiding in traffic trenches and digging, and rarely when they come up, even if they do, they will quickly retract.
Overall, the hit rate is still relatively low.
Anyway, Lin Ziran fired more than a dozen shots in a row, but they all missed.
It didn't take long for Luo Mazi to scream: "Hit, I hit!" ”
Lin Ziran glanced back at him!
Call a fart!
Didn't you just hit an enemy, Lao Tzu killed two Guang'an rebels in a row yesterday, is Lao Tzu proud?
Ignoring these two goods, Lin Ziran continued to concentrate on aiming, and soon he saw someone on the other side coming up, and immediately pulled the trigger decisively.
After the crisp gunshot, Lin Ziran's face became even more ugly.
Ma Dan, and I didn't hit it again!
However, at this time, Luo Mazi shouted again: "I hit again, my lord, I hit again!" ”
Dig the groove!
Lin Ziran threw down the gun directly and stopped playing!
The dignified traveler, what you want to do is to do the great cause of sweeping Kyushu, this squatting on the head of the city and beating mice is a fart!
Let's let Luo Mazi's subordinates play!
