The first time he entered the city as an occupier, Qi Liang rode a tall horse with his head held high, and he had a sense of accomplishment of "being at the top of the mountain and seeing the mountains at a glance", but there were no flowers to greet him, no applause, only the panic and anxiety of the city's citizens.

The entire Xianning City has been taken over, there are guards standing everywhere, Qi Liang went straight to the Xianning County Ya, the county Ya trembling kneeling the county magistrate and the officials, seeing a large group of people pouring in, they also couldn't recognize who was the head, just bowed to the ground and paused: "Knock to see the general!" A person wearing a purple mandarin duck patch was also holding a large seal wrapped in a yellow cloth.

Qi Liang guessed that he should be the county magistrate, walked past him without stopping for a moment, took the county seal in his hand, and waved his hand as he walked: "Okay!" Let them all go down! ”

When you step up the steps, you will see a plaque with the words "Mirror hanging" written on it. Qi Liangzi sat down in the seat of the county lord, and played with the county seal in his hand with interest, and wanted to remove the yellow cloth that was wrapped, he had seen a lot of this thing in costume dramas in later generations, and a cube in the boxy was wrapped in a yellow cloth, and he always wanted to know what was inside.

All the generals looked at it, and after thinking about it, he still suppressed this curiosity, threw it on the desk with a "bang" and said, "Everyone come here, let's discuss things!" ”

Everyone was startled by that sound, and Qin Guilin sighed in his heart: "My little ancestor! Did that thing fall casually? But the county seal! Hu Guozhu smiled bitterly, I don't know what tricks this prince is going to come up with?

Qi Liang glanced left and right, and Liu Shengming, the deputy head of the guard, deliberately took the guards and personal soldiers on duty away from the guard. The Flying Leopards are only an internal name and are not publicly available.

"Everyone has seen it, Xianning Xinzhan, people are uneasy, there is chaos everywhere, and the notice of Anmin should be pasted immediately!" Qi Liang glanced at the generals.

Hu Guozhu said: "Immediately order the following to do it!" ”

Qi Liang reminded: "The notice of Anmin should be written 'Expelling the Tatars and restoring China!'" All of us are united in our heart, and we are in the Han room! And so on! ”

Hu Guozhu praised: "This move is very good! It can unite the people's hearts and support our army! ”

Qi Liang shook his head: "It's useless to just call some slogans, you have to give the people real benefits!" Ordered: "Open a warehouse and release grain to relieve the people who have no food and clothing, and kill a few inferior gentry and bullies who are very angry with the people!" This matter is handled by Lu Qianhu."

Lu Huixiang didn't think that the first person to call was him, and came out from the back of the crowd: "Humble obedience." He was ugly, with a leopard's head and eyes, a yellow and black face, and his whole face was like a "unitary" character, and his colleagues were reluctant to approach him.

"The security in the city must be improved immediately, and the Xianning takeover work must be carried out quickly, and General Qin is responsible for these things." Qi Liang stood up, "General Hu is in charge of the city defense!" He had less than a cup of tea and was ready to leave.

Hu Guozhu hurriedly stopped and asked, "Shizi!" What about the problem of marching? The county seat of Puqi has not been won yet, what should I do? ”

Qi Liang did not stop, and said as he walked: "The problem of the army General Hu will take care of it himself, and the county town of Puqi will be attacked by Tang Daomu Qianhu with a thousand soldiers and horses from his headquarters, and when he returns, he will bring the captured Qing army and let them help persuade the Puqi defenders to surrender!" ”

"Obey the order!" Tang Daomu, who was silent, bowed down.

At this time, Qi Liang had already entered the backyard of the county government, and he didn't know if he heard Tang Daomu's answer? He was in a hurry to leave, but he suddenly remembered whether there would be an old department in the county government prison?

The screams inside reminded him of the unbearable years he spent in the prison, breathed the fresh air outside, looked back at the dark prison inside, and ordered Liu Shengming with pity: "Check the information of the prisoners in the prison, if there are innocent people, release them immediately!" ”

After a busy morning, there was finally time to sit down and rest, Xiao Qizi offered tea to Qi Liang, and Qi Liang asked, "Is Dr. Yang Songling here?" ”

Xiao Qizi was worried and asked, "Is the son of the world uncomfortable?" ”

Qi Liangbai glanced at him, knocked on his head and said, "If you look for Dr. Yang Songling, you must be sick?" ”

Xiao Qizi was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and said in panic: "The slave slaps his mouth, and smashes the minion's stinky mouth!" "Snap" has been hit hard.

Qi Liang was stunned and hurriedly stopped: "Little Seventh Son!" What are you doing? Who made you slap your mouth? Why don't you stop? ”

Xiao Qizi asked cautiously: "The master doesn't blame the slave?" ”

Qi Liang glared: "When did I blame you?" ”

"The master ...... just now," Xiao Qizi asked suspiciously, touching his head.

Qi Liang couldn't cry or laugh, and said gently: "Get up, go and call Dr. Yang Songling!" He thought that if it was Xiao Liuzi, he would never understand the beating just now as blame.

"Shu!" Xiao Qizi stepped back.

Yang Songling hurriedly came, and Qi Liang asked, "What has Doctor Yang been busy with lately?" ”

Yang Songling said: "Go back to the world!" The minions are not busy with anything! ”

Qi Liang felt uncomfortable when he heard this: "Didn't Xiao Wang ask you to help recruit some folk magicians?" ”

Yang Songling bowed down and said, "Minion, let's do it!" ”

Qi Liang sighed lightly, this Doctor Yang seems not suitable to be a "headhunter". In fact, this Yang Songling didn't bother to deal with those untouchables at all, although he was just a tasteless and unranked Xinglin doctor.

"Doctor Yang, wait a moment, I'll let Chen Zhengcheng help you!" Qi Liang had to rely on Chen Zhengcheng again.

On the second day, Hu Guozhu was planning to march north, and received a red clay fire paint capping scroll from the generalissimo's fast horse, and hurriedly took it to Qi Liang. Qi Liang was also about to go to him to mention the matter of marching north, and the two happened to meet at the door, Hu Guozhu respectfully handed over the scroll and said: "Shizi! Generalissimo urgent! ”

Qi Liang asked while opening the scroll, "What did you say?" ”

Hu Guozhu said: "The generalissimo asked the prince and the lowly to return to the Yuezhou Mansion!" He had already read the scroll, and thought that Wu Sangui had given him this permission before he set off.

Qi Liang frowned and asked, "What should I do here?" ”

Hu Guozhu said: "General Qin Guilin is in charge here!" ”

Qi Liang said: "I'm referring to the matter of marching north, Zhu Man hasn't solved it yet!" ”

Hu Guozhu said: "Let's spare him this time, and solve it later." ”

Qi Liang was unwilling to ask: "Can you go north to solve him and then return to Yuezhou?" "What a good opportunity, we can clean up the Qing army in Jiangnan immediately, which can save a lot of things in the future. At the same time, he also wants to test how much power he really has, and these generals will listen to him?

Hu Guozhu categorically denied: "No! The Generalissimo has an order, and he must not disobey it! ”

Hearing this tone, Qi Liang sighed, Wu Sangui must have explained to Hu Guozhu before leaving, he can't really command these troops, people only listen to Wu Sangui, thinking that other generals should be like this, take a step back and say: "The three counties of Jiayu, Tongshan, and Chongyang around Xianning must be solved, right?" ”

Hu Guozhu was a little impatient: "The son! This is 600 miles to step up the military situation, how can it be delayed? ”

Hu Guozhu is Wu Sangui's son-in-law, the real power figure of the Yunnan Group, Qi Liang forbears, and said: "Then forget about Jiayu in the northwest, but Tongshan and Chongyang must be solved, otherwise how to ensure the safety of Xianning?" ”

Hu Guozhu locked his thick eyebrows deeply, and dragged out his voice: "Shizi-"

Qi Liang pondered for a while, and said firmly: "General Hu led the army along the road first, and I led Guanning Tie to ride through Xianning-Tongshan-Chongyang Road, and solved the two counties together, and then met with the general at Zhao Li Bridge?" Although this made a big circle, the cavalry I led did not affect the itinerary. ”

"You think that Tongshan and Chongyang can be taken while waiting for you to walk over?" Hu Guozhu secretly thought, "What's more, it's still cavalry, how can you attack the city?" He really didn't understand why the prince regarded the emergency military situation as nothing, and didn't have a sense of the overall situation.

Seeing that Hu Guozhu was silent, Qi Liang asked, "General Hu, how is it?" ”

Thinking that if he didn't agree, it would be difficult for this prince with many tricks to give up, Hu Guozhu said helplessly: "The prince will look at it, you must be careful on the road." Then he solemnly reminded: "No matter whether you can take Tongshan and Chongyang, you can't delay time, and you won't wait for anyone in Zhao Liqiao!" ”

Qi Liang nodded: "Xiao Wang promises not to miss the time!" ”
