Chapter 227: Powerful Mrs. Xing

Mrs. Xing is a woman who survived the Northwest Rebellion.

Originally, after being favored by Li Zicheng, he was responsible for managing military supplies and distributing military rations and weapons for combat every day, but he could also be handy, and between countless struggles, he came over, and between these jobs, Gao Jie naturally had the opportunity to meet Mrs. Xing, Gao Jie was young and strong, and his appearance was not bad, and Mrs. Xing was closer to being kidnapped by Li Zicheng, so it was natural that the two eloped and even ran to the side of the official army with the soldiers.

This is not only a great thing, but it is simply amazing!

Of course, for many people, Mrs. Xing can only be seen as a goblin who bewitches thousands of men like Daji Xishi, and almost forgets that she is in charge of logistics and housekeeping by her two husbands.

Maybe he has little knowledge and can't go into battle, but when it comes to shrewdness and ability, it is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

She frowned and said: "My lord has not woken up yet, he disturbed the angel, why don't I send someone to pick him up, he entered the city yesterday, in order not to disturb the people, but he is wearing civilian clothes, and the official uniform is still here in the old camp, you must always wear a dress, before you dare to see the angel." ”

She has also been trained for many years, and she knows that this Qin cha is always the most difficult to serve, and she has to serve carefully, especially now that this court is no longer the court before, this lord, since there is an angel from the imperial capital, why don't you notify it quickly.

As a general, Gao Jie's reputation is definitely not good, on the one hand, he is discriminated against, and on the other hand, his hands are usually a little black, but the black money he fished, he really didn't enjoy much, basically he curried favor with the officials who passed by.

This is the biggest problem for the generals since ancient times, not being trusted, after all, it is a person who has surrendered once, and the psychological cost of backlashing again is very low, and everyone has to be on guard, and on the other hand, they themselves must feel that such a refuge has not been compensated enough, which is really unbearable.

If it is really a messenger who came to the imperial capital, Gao Jie must immediately send his henchmen back to the camp, not to mention the official uniform to be changed, as a character who has become a general from an ordinary peasant, in fact, Gao Jie is very proud of his current situation, as long as the situation allows, he always has to be meticulous and dress the service perfectly, and what about the money, usually in order to please these adults in the imperial capital, but he has prepared a lot of gold, silver, jewelry, and all kinds of treasures, which is not Gao Jie's usual habit!

But the question is, why.

Mrs. Xing said: "I just don't know when the messenger came, my family is really ignorant, and he dares to meet the messenger before he has changed his official uniform." ”

The man was startled.

Hou Fangyu is a second-generation scholar, a sister in the wind and snow, or the ability to bully people by relying on his life experience, but if he really does one thing, his carelessness and unorganized problems appear.

He briefly understood that Gao Jie's henchmen left in the barracks were all unliterate warriors like him, and in Hou Fangyu's simple head, illiterate people were naturally easy to deceive, and never imagined their own problems.

He never asked who was really in charge when Gao Jie was not in the barracks, and he didn't think about arranging a good explanation for his deception.

It is Mrs. Xing who is really in charge, and Mrs. Xing can experience the two husbands of Li Zicheng and Gao Jie, both of whom are the elite of human beings on this earth, and they naturally treat people and things perfectly, but there is no sand in their eyes.

The embarrassment of this little herald was immediately discovered by Mrs. Xing, and the change in her expression was too obvious!

After all, if you are mixed in the political circle and do not have actor-level acting skills, it is a non-imagination.

Madam Xing frowned, with a little hostility, and said: "There is no envoy from the imperial capital, what is usually the matter, Governor Ma's cronies always have to send someone to report the news in advance, but today he suddenly said what envoy, you few, don't go to the imperial capital, come here, take down this person!" ”

"No, I am a messenger from the imperial capital, you dare to do so."

"Pry open his mouth, see if he is still hard-mouthed, and order the camp to be closed, the master is afraid that something will happen."

Hou Fangyu's adaptability is too poor.

The so-called Xiucai rebellion, three years of failure, in fact, means that these scholars who talk on paper, once the time for actual operation, will find that all kinds of knowledge they are proud of are lack of practical experience, completely immature, the person he chose was sent by Zuo Liangyu to be a thug, but he was sent by him at will as a pretense to trick Gao Jie's subordinates into entering the city.

The abacus is a perfect abacus, but this person is not a person made of special materials, the brother Gui who was commanded by Mrs. Xing stripped naked, and a few quick knives were swiped on his body, and he had already howled and explained everything.

Mrs. Xing shouted angrily and anxiously: "The whole battalion of people is going to rescue the master, by the way, notify Huang Degong and let his people move, as well as Governor Ma's people, they can't ignore it, our master was arrested because he followed Governor Ma!" ”

The advantage of dividing troops to garrison lies in this, because they know that something may happen at any time, Gao Jie's troops also maintain a state of being ready to be pulled out at any time, after all, it is the master who gives them food every day will be captured, and it is captured after being drunk by villains in Fucheng, this kind of behavior is the most disdainful of real men, and Huang Degong also reached out to help.

Hou Fangyu didn't understand, why it wasn't what he expected, Gao Jie's men who were framed in the city, but they began to besiege the city with countless soldiers and horses, he was busy for many days, but he also got rid of a lot of small officials in the city, and immediately closed the city gate, and then directly pulled Gao Jie to the city, shouted a few voices, but also made the Gao army, who was eager to try and prepare to attack the city, stop drumming.

Hou Fangyu was so angry that he ordered a family member to aim a knife at Gao Jie and said, "Order your people to put down their weapons and surrender on their knees, otherwise, I will torture you." ”

At this time, Gao Jie was completely awake, watching his own people finally come to save him, he was very excited and proud, looked at this shameless scholar, and said: "The young general has a bad voice, but he can't shout so far, it's difficult, it's difficult." ”

Hou Fangyu was angry and looked at a family member.

The family was also clever, and shouted: "Hey, brothers under the city, don't fight, you General Gao has something to say." ”

He has a loud voice and plenty of strength, but he also made many people hear it in the crowded city.

Looking at the team in the army opposite, it seemed to be paused, Hou Fangyu signaled, and a family member held a wooden horn for amplification, which could amplify the sound a little, and held it in front of Gao Jie's mouth.

"Say it quickly, or I'll be rude to you."

Gao Jie sneered and shouted: "Erlang under the city, listen up, what are Gao Jie's three long and two short, that is the hand behind Hou Fangyu's father and son, you have to kill this father and son for me, and you are not allowed to leave a living person......"

"Smack, who told you to say that."

Hou Fangyu was in a hurry, and the family members hurriedly blocked Gao Jie's mouth.

The people under the city seemed to hear this movement, and the voices shouted one after another: "Master, listen to you." ”

"Listen to the people in the city, if you dare to make a move against our general, we will kill you cleanly, and not a single one will be left!"

"Let go of my general!"

Hou Fangyu looked at the hostile soldiers and horses outside the city, and his heart trembled, and said: "Hurry up and order Huang Degong to quell the rebellion, who can kill these rebels, reward, reward, and let all the rich families and gentry in the city send their families out to defend the city." ”

He was in the chaotic times at the end of the Ming Dynasty, but he also knew that the defense of the city relied on enough manpower and many tools to defend the city, so it was possible to defend it, as for what happened after that, it was not his responsibility.

"Come, bind up this traitor and set it at the head of the city, and if they dare to attack the city, they will kill it immediately."

Mrs. Xing is also very anxious in the city, Huang Degong is a little far away from here, and he doesn't know the situation yet, it is estimated that when he starts the army to come, it will be at least in the afternoon or even in the evening, and Ma Shiying's subordinates are also housekeepers, and it is really embarrassing to be this kind of master.

So, a confrontation formed between the city and the city, Mrs. Xing felt sorry for her husband, looking at Gao Jie who was tied up and erected, she didn't dare to attack the city directly for the time being, but she sent people to bypass this section of the city wall, she was still looking for someone, on the other hand, Hou Fangyu did find a lot of people.

"They are all loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty."

Fengyang City, as the central capital, really gathered a lot of courtiers who ran from the north, and even their families were hundreds of people, and at this time groups came over to help defend the city.

"My father is the former head of the Ministry of Works, I usually serve my father at home, I know a little bit about the things in the city, I dare to greet my brother, this Gao Jie is not very excessive, why take him down and confine the whole city."

Although Hou Fangyu was confused and incompetent in handling affairs, he framed the world's unparalleled, and immediately said: "Don't hide it from the world, this Gao Jie, he has a bad plan, he wants to dedicate this Fengyang City to the enemy chieftain, and he will slaughter the whole city and loot gold and silver, you say, should he be arrested." ”

"Oh, yes, that's really hard waiting."

The man seemed silent, thinking about something.

Hou Fangyu is treating himself as the governor of Fengyang, giving orders, in his opinion, Gao Jie is in hand, and Huang Degong naturally does not dare to fight against himself, it seems that this big city is already his.

Ma Shiying had already put away the initial surprise and looked at the thousand-year-old falcon with a normal heart.

After all, it is a governor-level figure, and the transportation frequency of falcons has been decreasing in the past thousand years, in order to maintain the engine life of these baby-like commuter spaceships, it is not bad to transport this person, of course, but for an hour, there is no need to have any very troublesome hospitality, that is, Ma Shiying himself, with a few personal servants, got on the spaceship, and most of the servants were in the newly attached Ma family house in the imperial capital, serving Ma Su'er every day.

Li Xiangqian happened to have something to do, and he was going to go on a staff trip to the south to inspect the garrison of the Dutch in southern Taiwan, how many people could uproot that stronghold, and in history, thousands of people had to besiege the fortresses of hundreds of people, and they had to besiege them.

"This ship is ingenious, I don't know how it was made, son-in-law."

Li Xiangqian said a little unnaturally: "Actually, it's just a little science, if you are interested, you can let Ling Lang also go to the imperial capital for further study, it won't be troublesome." ”

Ma Shiying said earnestly: "But the matter of the four books and five classics cannot be delayed." ”

Li Xiangqian ignored this stubble, thought about it, and said, "That's a trivial matter. ”

Li Xiangqian continued: "Next, due to the construction of the railway, as well as the development of agriculture, and the work of foreign immigration, you have to worry more, the people on the transport, they need to upgrade their ships, as for some unemployed people, just guide them to overseas colonies, before this autumn, we are ready to develop the island of Taiwan, and it is no problem to accommodate millions of people." ”

Ma Shiying said slowly: "This is also a good thing, in all dynasties, reclamation of border wasteland is a common thing, but the cost is huge, you can think about it." ”

Li Xiangqian thought of the massive amount of fertilizer that was ready to start production, and said: "It's not a big problem, well, if you are interested, do you want to be the first governor, or recommend someone to come out, with such qualifications, and then go to a certain territory, or return to the central government to serve, it is a good thing." ”

Ma Shiying was also a little excited, and suddenly changed from a marginal person to a person from the imperial court, thought about it, and said: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, I'll go back to Fengyang first, and after taking care of my troops, I will start organizing immigrants." ”

"Well, then, the spaceship won't land in Fengyang City, so as not to scare the people, well, just find a wood."

Suddenly, someone said, "Li Xiangqian, come and see, something is wrong." ”

Li Xiangqian motioned for Ma Shiying to sit casually in the lounge and drink tea, and came to the cab.

"Look, there seems to be wolf smoke and crowds ahead, it seems that many people are attacking the city, this is Fengyang City, they are attacking Fengyang!"

Li Xiangqian was also taken aback, and said to himself: "Didn't the old man say that he had perfect control over his subordinate military heads, and besides, he had sent a lot of military salaries to these people before, but he still couldn't feed them, ******." ”

He hurriedly found Ma Shiying, Ma Shiying was on the screen in the cab, looking at the army's flags, military uniforms and other things, and said slowly: "This is Gao Jie's troops, his people, they actually dare to attack Fucheng, virtuous son-in-law, why don't you go down quickly to quell the rebellion." ”

Li Xiangqian thought for a while and said, "Okay, look at where Gao Jie is, I'll go down and arrest people directly." ”

"Lao Zhang, circle the spaceship, hide it in the clouds, don't be discovered, take a little photo, find the location of that traitor Gao Jie, and lock him!"

With Ma Shiying, the leading party, the best thing is that the army under his command knows all about the equipment and configuration, and after a long time, he frowned and said: "What about Gao Jieren, why did Mrs. Xing come out." ”
