Text: Chapter 267 about the battle of Yantan
"Let them in." Zhu Zipu swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, at this moment he really felt that the people from Qingshan Water Village were really good, and he took himself out of the headache.
The footsteps were calm, and the two old men appeared in Shuaitang, and Jiang Anyi recognized it at a glance, and the leader was Wei Dachang, who jumped out of the window and escaped in the Juyi Hall of Mixed Water Village that day.
Wei Dachang glanced at the lobby, and his eyes were on Jiang Anyi, revealing a fierce look. The old man beside him took out a letter from his arms, handed it to the flag beside him, and said, "The old man and the two of them issued a war letter to the Wuyang Sailor on behalf of Qingshan Water Village. ”
Zhu Zhipu took the letter, unfolded it, and the content was very simple: On November 8, at Yantan Zhoutou, there were ten duels, and the captured officers and soldiers of Zuo Weiwei were exchanged for the lives of Wang Tiangang, Qin Minghui, and the people of Chaoshuizhai, as well as the water bandits and Yuantian disciples who were captured by the government.
After pondering for a long time, Zhu Zhipu said: "The people in Mixed Water Village have surrendered to the government and become the officers and soldiers of our water division, and they can't be used for gambling." ”
"Hahahaha", Wei Dachang let out a sneer, and said: "I just saw that the people tied to the pillar are the newly surrendered officers and soldiers of Chaoshui Village, I didn't expect the government to treat them like this, after the old man went back, he wanted to go around to promote and publicize for the government, so that those who were lucky died of this heart." ”
Zhu Zipu glared at Yan Songyun viciously, and said that he unloaded the mill and killed the donkey, and now the wheat is still growing in the field, so he is in a hurry to sharpen the knife Huo Huo is doing.
Yan Songyun was bitter in his heart, he lost his troops and lost his generals, but as a result, most of the credit for Mixed Water Village was given to Jiang Anyi and Xinfei, and he couldn't swallow a bad anger in his heart. It is not easy to deal with Jiang Anyi and Xin Fei, and it is not easy to deal with these water bandits who are under their own hands and surrender, who dares to say anything after a few whips. How do you know that the passing year is unfavorable, Jiang Anyi broke into the barracks, injured Chen Dingzhen, and made things bigger, it seems that Zhu Dudu is very dissatisfied with himself, so he will be a man with his tail between his legs for the time being.
Zhu Zhipu knew that now was not the time to pursue responsibility, so he immediately shouted: "According to what you said, there will be a gambling fight in Yantan on November 8. ”
Wei Dachang shook his face and looked at Jiang Anyi, and sneered: "This lord, the victory and defeat of the battle in Mixed Water Village have not yet been decided that day, you might as well use this gambling battle to make an end, I don't know what to do?" ”
Jiang Anyi shrugged and ignored him. After Wei Dachang and the two left, Zhu Zhipu asked, "Who of you knows where Yantan is?" ”
The big tent was silent, Zhu Zhipu laughed angrily, and reprimanded: "It's good to fight in your own house, but you don't even know the location of the water bandits, Yan Songyun, you have done a good job as a sailor." ”
Yan Songyun saw that the governor was angry, so he was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt down and asked for sin: "The lowly position is a responsibility for the trust of the governor, please punish the governor." ”
The other generals in the tent couldn't stand anymore, and they knelt down to plead guilty, and the black crows in the tent fell down.
Duan Cizong saw that this battle could not be fought, and the generals who fought were guilty, so he hurriedly got up and persuaded: "Zhu Dudu, the water division has just been established, and it is normal to be unfamiliar with the terrain. It is estimated that Yantan is only a small place, and only local people are familiar with it. The Zhao brothers of Mixed Water Village have been by the river for a long time, they should know the location of Yantan, it is better to invite them in and ask. ”
The people in Mixed Water Village were beaten and bruised, how do you ask? Even if you ask this group of people to have hatred, they may turn against each other again, but it will not end well. Duan Cizong saw Zhu Zipu's hesitation, and said: "Governor, if you want to use this gang of water bandits, you must let them surrender sincerely, and you might as well reward their official positions and let them serve the court." At this moment, everyone is injured, let the military doctor treat it first, and then let Jiang Anyi go to persuade him. ”
Zhu Zipu thought about it, so he had to do this, and nodded in agreement.
Jiang Anyi issued an order, the officers and soldiers dismissed the people in the mixed water village, and the military doctor took the golden medicine to treat their injuries, but fortunately, they were all flesh wounds, and no bones were moved, and no one was killed. Jiang Anyi breathed a sigh of relief, and there was finally room for redemption.
After the Zhao brothers had applied the golden medicine, they rested together, and Jiang Anyi approached and sighed: "Jiang didn't check for a while, let the two Zhao brothers and the brothers suffer like this, and hope to forgive the sin." ”
Zhao Liangcai reluctantly bowed his hand and said: "Lord Jiang, I don't blame you, you have fought for us, we have all seen it, and we should only blame us for not being water bandits, and it is natural for the officials and soldiers to fight water bandits." ”
When Jiang Anyi heard this, his words were full of anger, and his heart was unresolved. After Zhao Liangcai finished speaking, he lowered his head and stopped talking.
Zhao Lianghan said: "Lord Jiang, this whip has also been taken, is it time to go to the prison cell, our brothers are deeply guilty and dare not take chances, but these brothers are not guilty, I don't know if Lord Jiang can tell the officials and let them go." If you want to kill or chop, let's take the knife on our two brothers. ”
Jiang Anyi was squeezed by these two brothers and had nothing to say, so he was too lazy to say anything, and said straightforwardly: "Two, Zhu Dadu, the governor of Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, wants to see the two, please come with me." ”
Glancing at not far away, Hong Laohan's family surrounded Hong Chun to wipe his tears, Jiang Anyi felt apologetic and shouted: "Hong Chun, you come with me." ”
Zhao Liangcai and the others saw that the handsome tent was a little wider than their own Juyi Hall, the knife and axe hand held a sharp blade in the two compartments, and there was a black-faced gold-armored general sitting behind the table in the middle of the table, and there were many generals with bright armor standing on both sides.
Jiang Anyi reminded softly: "Don't meet Governor Zhu yet." ”
Zhao Liangcai and the other three were already a little chilled, and quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "The villain sees the Metropolitan Governor." ”
Zhu Zipu looked at the three of them for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Zhao, you are so bold, you dare to gather a crowd to rebel, hijack the grain ship for disaster relief, and punish the three clans according to the law. ”
The words echoed in the tent, with heavy coercion, the Zhao brothers held their trembling hands, like dead leaves in the autumn wind, shaking non-stop.
Zhu Zhipu was very satisfied with the effect of his words just now, and said in a slow tone: "But you can rein in the precipice, wake up, lead the people to take refuge in the court, and catch the military advisor Wang Tiangang and worship Qin Minghui in Qingshan Water Village, which can also be regarded as a meritorious achievement." This year, we must repay the court with sincerity, otherwise, this handsome's big knife will not be spared. ”
The Zhao brothers breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Thank you for the grace of the handsome, the villain brothers will definitely do their best in the future and be loyal to the court." ”
"Well, that's good. Ben Shuai has always rewarded and punished clearly, the whip just now is to punish your sins, and now Ben Shuai wants to reward you for your merits. Zhao Liangcai led the people to surrender, captured the important criminals of the court, promoted to Xuanjie lieutenant, allocated 500 soldiers to his control, Zhao Lianghan was able to accompany his brother to make meritorious service, promoted to Xuanjie lieutenant, and served under Zhao Liangcai. ”
Zhu Zipu thought about it, Zhao Liangcai's brothers offended Yan Songyun, if they were under Yan Songyun's hands, they would definitely die in two years, for Jiang Anyi's sake, he simply said: "The Zhao brothers' headquarters are under the jurisdiction of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, and they are the staff officers of the Metropolitan Protectorate." ”
Zhao Liangcai's brothers crossed from hell to heaven, the joys and sorrows changed too quickly, and they were naturally grateful to Zhu Zipu, "Woo Yao" shook his head, and choked up: "Du Du is the reborn parents of my brothers, and my brothers are willing to die for Du Du from now on." ”
Jiang Anyi admired it tightly from the side, the Zhao brothers just looked at him coldly, but they were pinched by Zhu Dudu's first power and then grace, and they couldn't wait to take out their hearts, this kind of means is indeed good.
Zhu Zhipu saw the Zhao brothers in tears, secretly proud, and said softly: "You two go down to change your clothes first, and after you change your clothes, Ben Shuai still has something to ask you." ”
The Zhao brothers wiped their tears and followed the soldiers out to change their clothes, Hong Chun lay on the ground and was very envious, looking at Jiang Anyi with a blank eye, Jiang Anyi was amused in his heart, and arched his hand: "Du Du, this Hong Zhuang is the warrior who went undercover in the water village with me, please give me instructions." ”
Zhu Zipu had just subdued the Zhao brothers, and he had more arms on the water, and he was in a very good mood, looking at Hong Chun and saying with a smile: "Hong Zhuangshi, you have made great contributions, or Ben Shuai will also make you a deputy lieutenant of Xuanjie, how about you serve in the army?" ”
Hong Chun didn't know what kind of official Xuanjie deputy lieutenant was, but he kept in mind that Jiang Anyi promised him to be at least a county lieutenant, and said busily: "Master Dudu, Lord Jiang told me that I can be a county lieutenant, and I want to go to the county to be a county lieutenant, and I don't want to be a soldier." ”
The people in the handsome tent were amused by Hong Chun, the deputy lieutenant of Xuanjie is under the eighth grade, compared to the county lieutenant of Xia County who is five orders higher from the ninth grade, this Hong Chun should be small or not big, it can be regarded as a strange story through the ages.
Zhu Zhipu laughed and said, "Okay, Ben Shuai will fulfill your wishes, Ben Shuai will write a note to Lu Tingshi, and ask him to make you a county lieutenant in the county." ”
There was laughter in the handsome tent, and the tense atmosphere just now dissipated because of Hong Chun, and Zhu Zhipu secretly rejoiced that he finally resolved this difficult matter. Jiang Anyi sent Hong Chun out and complained: "Brother Hong, the deputy lieutenant of Xuanjie is much higher than the county lieutenant in your county, why are you so stupid, you want to be small and not big, why don't you ask me if you don't know the size?" ”
Hong Chunhan said with a smile: "My mother said that you should be content, and I am already content to be a county lieutenant." Besides, Boss Zhao is older than me, and everyone in the army is older than them, so if I am at ease in the county, I can live with my family and ask for a daughter-in-law, then it will be called a good life. Mr. Jiang, I want to thank you. ”
Jiang Anyi looked at the happy appearance of the Hong family, and a faint sense of loss rose in his heart, his official position is getting bigger and bigger, but he is getting closer and closer to his family. It's been three years since I entered Beijing, and according to the system, I can take family leave for three months this year, and when the state is over, I must go home to see, Yan'er should look like she doesn't know her. No longer disturbing the happiness of the Hong family, Jiang Anyi turned around and walked towards the handsome tent, not seeing Nier looking at him with tears in her eyes.
In the handsome tent, the Zhao brothers changed into bright armor and stood beside the handsome case with sincere fear. There was a map on the handsome case, and Zhao Liangcai pointed to the direction with his hand and introduced: "Yantan is here, this is the confluence of the Heishui River and Runshui, I heard the old man say that it was originally a big reef, and the mud and sand accumulated here for a long time, and gradually formed a beach with a radius of more than ten miles. It is covered with reeds and has become a place for geese to land, so it is called a wild goose beach. ”
Zhao Lianghan added: "The bottom of the river in this place is shallow, and the big boats can't pass, I estimate that Qingshan Water Village is afraid of my sailor's building boat, so I chose here, or we will take the sailor to explore the way, and send people to station on Yantan to prevent Qingshan Water Village from cheating." ”
