Chapter 121: Make a Decision on the Spot
Knowing that the villagers gathered to make trouble, it was Zhang Dahu who coerced and instigated him behind the scenes, and Zhang Dahu actually wanted to put himself to death, Xu En was furious. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Therefore, Wu Song's plan was quickly approved by him.
In fact, at this time, the noise of the villagers outside the yamen became louder and louder, and the situation became more and more urgent. Xu En was also worried that the villagers would lose their minds and rush into the yamen, so as the magistrate, he was afraid that he would also be in danger.
Therefore, he gritted his teeth and said to Wu Song: "Wu Song, you are indeed brave and strategic!" Do as you say! ”
Wu Song and Xu En's plan has been decided and they will return to the main hall of the Yamen.
After all, Xu En is still a quite capable local official, otherwise Cai Jing would not have entrusted him with such a major matter as law reform and reform. At this time, he made up his mind, and then restored the composure of the county, and said to Zhang Xin and other officials: "The minister of the Qin mission is almost in Qinghe, don't slack off." Since the county government was besieged by these Diao people, the minister of the Qin mission could not enter, so the official had to go out of the city first to meet the minister of the Qin mission, accompanied by Wu Song. At present, all this is decided by the minister. If the villagers insist on opposing the change of the law and must leave Qinghe, then the official will ask the minister to resign! ”
Zhang Xin and the others were also promoted by Xu En after purging the yamen officials. If Xu En really resigns and leaves, then they are afraid that they will have to cover up. Therefore, when he heard that Xu En was going to ask the minister for resignation, he hurriedly persuaded him: "My lord, don't do it!" The Lord is an official of the imperial court, and he is entrusted by the current emperor and Minister Cai Jing to serve in Qinghe County, how can he be distracted by the ignorance of these people? ”
Xu Endao: "Don't worry, this county is naturally reluctant to leave Qinghe, I believe that the minister of the Qin Mission has his own knowledge, so don't worry too much about it first." After Wu Song and I left, you should be careful to stay at the county office, and you must keep in mind the orders of your own officials, and you must not have any radical words and deeds that exacerbate contradictions. For the villagers, they can only be comforted by good words, and everything will wait for the official to welcome the arrival of the minister, and then give the villagers a suitable explanation! ”
With that, Xu En and Wu Song set off.
However, at this time, the entire Yamen of Qinghe County has been besieged by the villagers, and the water is impassable, so it is not easy for Xu En and Wu Song to leave the Yamen and go out of the city!
Once the villagers find out that Xu En has appeared, the scene will immediately get out of control!
Fortunately, Wu Song had chased the suspect before, and he had seen Ma Kui, Zhao Er and other masters flying on the wall many times, walking on the eaves of Qinghe County, which inspired him. Although he is not a martial arts master, he does not know how to do light work, and Xu En is a scholar and a pampered county master, but with both hands and feet, and being careful, he can naturally quietly break out of the encirclement from the roof.
Wu Song took Xu En and quietly climbed onto the roof of the county office, trying to hide his body so as not to be seen, while quickly crawling out from the roof.
When they reached the rooftop, they looked down condescendingly, only to see that the streets and alleys of Qinghe County were crowded with people, all of whom were crowded with villagers. The villagers gathered in the whole city at this time were afraid of no less than forty or fifty thousand people!
Even in the era before Wu Song's crossing, when the people regarded the demonstrations as a natural right, it could be regarded as a large-scale demonstration!
Xu En couldn't help but whisper to Wu Song: "Wu Song, you're still right. If this official rashly mobilized troops to try to disperse the villagers, how could these tens of thousands of villagers be able to disperse and suppress only a few hundred local troops? Once these tens of thousands of people mutinied, the consequences would be really unimaginable! ”
Wu Song said: "My lord is right. It is absolutely impossible to suppress these tens of thousands of villagers with a mere few hundred Turkish troops, and it will only lead to more serious consequences! ”
Xu Endao: "Yes, I hope that the Zhangfu minions of Zhangjiabao have all come to Qinghe County at this time, the fort is empty, and hundreds of local troops can take it!" ”
Wu Song said: "The soldiers are fast, without further ado, my lord, let's go quickly!" ”
Fortunately, although there were many villagers gathering and marching at this time, everyone was emotional, and few people looked up to pay attention to the roof.
The two gradually moved away from the street where the villagers gathered and arrived at the Turkish army camp. Tens of thousands of villagers besieged Yamen in the county town, and although the barracks were still calm, they were obviously on guard.
Wu Song thought that these local troops were mainly the children of local villagers, not regular troops, and Xu En was essentially a scholar, although he was also a county comforter, he might not be good at commanding the army. So, when tens of thousands of villagers besieged the county government, will these Turkish troops still obey the dispatch of Xu En, the county magistrate who is also the county comfort?
If the Turkish army did not obey the dispatch command, then it would be difficult for him and Xu En's plan to be implemented.
Therefore, before entering the barracks, Wu Song asked Xu En vigilantly: "My lord, can these Turkish troops obey your command?" ”
Xu En escaped from the county government, escaped from the siege of tens of thousands of villagers, and came to the military camp where he was also in charge of the county comfort, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, his confidence was boosted a lot, and he said: "This can be assured." Most of the officers in the battalion have been transferred by me, and they don't dare to disobey their own commands! ”
Wu Song escorted Xu En and strode into the barracks. When the soldiers on duty saw that the magistrate had arrived in person, they did not dare to slack off and immediately let him go.
Xu En took Wu Song into the barracks and ordered all the officers of the battalion to come and meet him quickly.
Officers of all sizes came one after another. Wu Song watched coldly and found that some officers came quickly, while others came slowly. The officers who came quickly were obviously more respectful to Xu En, and they were probably Xu Enjian's cronies who were promoted and replaced after he was appointed as the county consolation. But the officers who came more slowly only saluted.
Although Xu En was born as a scholar, after all, he has served as the county magistrate and concurrently served as the county consolation, so after entering the barracks, he also has a bit of a military style. At present, the situation is urgent, and he is not verbose, and immediately orders the officers to gather the soldiers and follow him and Wu Song out of the city.
"My lord, can you tell me what is the matter with the urgent gathering of soldiers out of the city at this time?" One of the last officers to arrive, who appeared to be a lieutenant, asked aloud.
Xu Endao: "This official has his own plans!" You first gather the army urgently and go out of the city with your own officer!" ”
But the lieutenant said: "My lord, at this time, tens of thousands of villagers in the city gathered to besiege the county government, the situation is urgent, and I think that the Turkish army is not suitable to go out of the city for the time being. Otherwise, the garrison in the city will be empty, and once the situation changes, the consequences will be 。。。。。。 Yes! ”
He was about to say "the consequences are unimaginable", but suddenly let out a scream of "ah" and fell to the ground.
Wu Song easily pulled the knife out of his body, and blood was dripping from the blade. Wu Song didn't wipe it, so he pointed at the other officers with this bloody knife, and shouted: "Those who dare not obey the orders of the county magistrate, the fate of this guy is an example!" ”
