[Asking for votes, the description of the ancient city of Linqing in the previous chapter is a little flawed, and it has been modified]

"Rescuers?"

Zhang Bingfang took a bite of ghee soaked snails and went down his throat, suddenly felt that his mouth was full of smooth and fertile lungs and indescribable deliciousness, and asked absentmindedly as he looked for the accompanying tea on the table. Since he went north, he hasn't eaten such exquisite dim sum for many days, even when he was in the Lu Wangfu and Confucius Mansion, it is not as good as here, not to mention that his nephew specially raised a cow at home to make soufflé snacks, but he still won't miss the gossip that should be listened to.

Yuan Chonghuan said: "Yes, the Sichuan soldiers and the Zhejiang soldiers must always be driven by the handy, otherwise they will run to Liaodong in vain, and the soldiers will not know the generals, and the soldiers will not know the soldiers. I won't use the barbarian battalion guarding the warehouse to make up the numbers. ”

The Cang army on the Linqing River was originally the Fang Guozhen Department in the south of the Yangtze River at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, and the world knew that it was a salt lord in its early years, so the people of Linqing called the Cang Army a barbarian battalion, but now the combat power of the barbarian battalion is probably also worrying, and it is estimated that it can only maintain the order of the river. And Liu Wei is a famous general in the world, fighting in Korea, Pingbanzhou, and Sichuan, and his accumulated military exploits are all proof, and because he made a big knife with an iron sword, he got the nickname of Liu Dadao, but no matter how good a general is, he can't fight alone, not to mention that Liu Ling is also an old man who is over the age of six, and the people he is used to are naturally unwilling to accommodate at will.

Shen Defu smiled again: "It's okay if you really use the barbarian battalion to fill the number, I heard that a few years ago, Tianjin Wei caught a few flowers and went to the outside of the customs to receive a salary and then returned, as long as there is no war, everything is easy to say, this is really a battle, but it is not easy to talk about in detail." ”

He means that the lower limit I have seen is much lower than what you have seen.

Ye Xian's ancestors had been listening to the tune of the small singing before, and at this time the singing voice was suppressed by the voices of everyone before he reacted and participated in the discussion, "Yes, Liu Xingwu (note: Liu Lingzi) has been in the southwest for a long time, and the Sichuan army and the native soldiers have been used well, and the Zhejiang soldiers of his fellow countryman Deng Zilong in North Korea have also cooperated seamlessly. ”

Qi Biaojia said: "The Sichuan soldiers are too far away to estimate that it will not help, but Zhefu and Liu Wei are both fellow villagers in Nanchang, and when we came from Hangzhou, we heard that there were 4,000 soldiers and horses to aid Liao earlier, so we thought it had already arrived." ”

Everyone also remembered that the newspaper did say that there was a team of 4,000 soldiers and horses who went north first, and the leader was Peng Tianxiang, a martial artist from Yangzhou Mansion. But it's hard to say whether the people and horses arrived first, after all, whether the army moves quickly or not depends on the logistics of supplies, and the pro-people officials along the way are afraid that the guest army will 'disturb the people', so how can they know what to do in terms of food and salary. And it is known as 4,000, and at this time, it is customary to have 3,000 positive amounts.

As he was talking, he heard someone shouting outside the house, and he suddenly became noisy.

"What's going on out there?" Wang Xingping saw that the innkeeper ran in in a panic, and asked Zhengse.

The guy stammered, "Honorable guest...... Be...... There are guest soldiers making trouble......"

…………

Outside a gorgeous house in the bamboo pole lane of the East Zhongzhou Back Street of Guangji Bridge, two groups of people are clearly holding each other outside the courtyard. One of the leaders was a stout man, with a beard and a red face, and he knew at a glance that he was an officer by looking at his fat jacket. On the other side, he is a middle-aged man like a thin monkey, covered in brocade clothes, with a white face and thin beard, and a pair of small eyes like mung beans, revealing cunning. The inns and restaurants on both sides of the alley are lined up, and there are many people who poke their heads out upstairs and downstairs to watch, including Wang Xingping and his party.

"Thief Qiu Ba, the person has been handed back to you, and you still want to make trouble? You don't want to inquire about whose property this Lichun Courtyard is? Looking at a few military men, the lean middle-aged man could not hide the disdain in his heart.

The leading man on the other side said: "If my brother has any offense, he should apologize, but it is clear that this Lichun Courtyard is a place for prostitutes, and why do you dare to beat people if you don't pay your bills?" ”

"No debts? Then why couldn't he take out the silver in the first place? The corners of the lean middle-aged man's mouth curled.

At this time, a thin military academy-looking man beside Dahan glanced at the half-cut mark exposed by the lean middle-aged cuffs, and his face showed a hint of surprise, but he immediately gently pulled the corner of Dahan's robe, "Brother Zhou, these people seem to be religious, we had better not provoke them." ”

The big man frowned when he heard this, and most of the religions in Shandong are folk religions like the Wenxiang Sect, if this is the case, it is really not easy to do.

At this time, a man with a blue nose and swollen face beside Dahan blushed, and roared unconvinced when he heard the words of the lean middle-aged man. "I have already said that the money bag was stolen, and I haven't looked for you yet, but you wronged me first, and today this matter is not good."

This man with a swollen face is a soldier who came here at night to be happy but was beaten for nothing because of the loss of prostitution, this time he caused an incident, and he had to deal with it after returning to the camp, but now is not the time. However, the leading Zhou Qi heard that the thugs in this Lichun Courtyard looked like local sect members, and he already had the intention of retreating, but he was delayed by the bruised-faced man.

The canal of the road from Zhejiang to Hebei is where Luo Zujiao and Wenxiang Sect gather, Luo Zujiao has to create the patriarch Luo Qing was born in Jimo, Shandong, and is the transport army of Caoyun, and its 'enlightenment' has been preaching in Zhejiang for many years, and it is mostly spread in the canal Caogong. And Wenxiang Sect is created by Wang Sen, a native of Luanzhou during the Wanli period, and the miracle of the white fox giving tail is widely spread in North China, divided by canals, the south believes in Luo Zujiao, also known as Wuwei Religion, and the north believes in Wenxiang Sect, but its followers are also mixed with each other, and there are many small sects in the middle, but these folk sects are often collectively called White Lotus Sect in the eyes of the imperial court, as a foreign way attached to Buddha. As far as the Wenxiang Sect is concerned, it is known as hundreds of thousands of members in Shandong alone, and even these southern guest soldiers who were born in Jiangnan have heard of it to some extent. Wenxiang sect members are mostly low-level people along the canal, such as blacksmiths and salt households, slender men and laborers, etc., but it is not that there are no high-ranking officials and nobles involved, it is said that Linqing is a prosperous place of commerce and trade, and it is normal for some sectarians to put some industries here.

But if the other party is really a disciple of the incense sect, then most of them will suffer today, after all, this will lead to the river from top to bottom There are all kinds of people in their sects, and Lichun Yuan may not be able to respond to all calls, at least it is also a land-sitting household.

"The guest army is transiting, and it is not stationed outside the state city, but it is running to the city to make trouble, so you are not afraid of guarding your chief?"

That Zhou Qi was originally just a general manager, and the chief officer was Peng Tianxiang. Because Liao Shi was recruited to the north, all the soldiers were unhappy in their hearts, and he was appeased with good words along the way, so the military discipline was relaxed, but now when he heard the other party say this, his heart was naturally more annoyed.

"The guest army can't enter the city, but the brothel can?"

Someone in the crowd made a noise, which caused a burst of laughter. The rule of the Ming Dynasty is that brothels are not allowed to be located in the city, but such rules may still be adhered to in the city, but in Linqing, a mixed place, it is absolutely impossible to do, but in theory, this is not wrong. At this moment, Wang Xingping, who had just shouted this, was standing in the crowd of onlookers with a smile on his face, Qi Biaojia glanced at him when he heard the sound but shook his head with a smile.

However, the other soldiers behind Zhou Qi obviously didn't hear his conversation with the thin military academy, but the blue-faced man's previous clamor was clearer, and he was provoked by the thin middle-aged man's words, and they all became anxious at this time. Where do they know anything about smelling incense, and the people who have been on the battlefield don't talk much, taking advantage of the middle-aged people on the opposite side who are being verbally ridiculed and are looking around for the person who speaks, the soldiers and men have raised the sentry sticks and short sticks in their hands and rushed over, how to clean up the bandits and pirates in the past Today, it is the same as today.

"The southern barbarians also dare to run to the ground in our Shandong to make trouble." The lean middle-aged man who was the leader thought that he had calmed the other party, but he didn't want to be instigated by a word, his face changed, and he shouted while retreating.

But these words made the already unhappy military men even more angry, "Grandpa, this will make you see and understand greatly."

The two sides fought vigorously, and the military man quickly took advantage of the strength of his height and strength, and he quickly took the advantage, and the lean middle-aged man was busy greeting back and forth when he saw that the situation was not good, and gradually he couldn't resist it.

I vaguely heard the man with a swollen face shouting, "This guy is the one who beat me just now, and the brothers will avenge me." ”

Wang Xingping watched the melee from a distance, the soldiers and men had already begun to support each other after only a short while, and their advance and retreat were actually quite orderly, he was secretly surprised, and at this time, there were already a few bold hawkers who came out to peddle food.

He asked for a small bag of melon seeds to share with everyone, and said with a smile: "You are not afraid of things." ”

But the hawker's answer immediately made him feel that he had chosen the wrong inn, "The guest officer laughed, what is there to be afraid of, I can't see this kind of thing a few times a day in Bamboo Pole Alley, and I am only afraid of how to make a living, and besides, I will fight more lively, and I dare not use the knife." ”

"What do you say?"

"If you move the knife, you will alarm the government, you don't look at the sticks that those soldiers are holding, and you don't even wear a piece of armor, so you can see that you are prepared."

"And what are those men holding in their hands?" Wang Xingping squinted at the distance behind the hawker.

'Knife-'

"Ah, it's the gang of outlaws in Yuncheng County." As if he had seen a ghost, the peddler shouted and put away his things and ran away.

At this time, many people came out of the inn one after another, and they couldn't help but be shocked when they saw a group of thugs coming from the lean middle-aged side, all of whom were armed with sharp blades. Those new thugs didn't care about so much, they really slashed and killed, although they didn't seem to have any cooperation, but they were caught off guard and even several soldiers were caught off guard and injured.

said that it was too late, and when the leader named Zhou Qi saw that the opposite side actually saw the real chapter, he also put away his hesitation, and rushed into the battle formation with a roar. I saw that this person first swung two fists and knocked down the person in front of him, and then hit a knife-wielding murderer in the chest, and the murderer panicked and took the knife to block, and was hit in the chest with a stick, and the knife was also knocked out of shape, and the whole person flew out upside down.

There was another exclamation from the crowd of onlookers, but in an instant, the soldiers had the upper hand again, and it only took a moment for the thugs of the brothel to be knocked to the ground.

Although a few of those knife-wielding murderers ran away, four or five were caught, which made Zhou Qi quite relieved, first, there were many people injured on both sides, but there were no fatal ones, and second, after all, the knife was moved, which inevitably alarmed the soldiers patrolling the city, and it was good to tell if someone was caught, and the leading turtle man on the opposite side finally failed to run away.

He lifted the thin middle-aged collar with one hand, "Dare to use a knife in the city, wait to see the official." ”

The middle-aged man was also a little panicked, and said embarrassedly: "The hero spares his life." ”

Zhou Qidao: "Don't worry, Lao Tzu doesn't want your life, but the brothers have been injured a lot by your men, and there must be an explanation." ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say."

"I know that this brothel is the property of the Smelling Fragrance Sect, but since the sword is moved, I don't think the government will ignore it."

The middle-aged man secretly complained in his heart, originally he just asked people to move some foreign aid, but he didn't want to recruit these desperate people, and he didn't want to die, but he hadn't been beaten and was caught again. And listening to the other party's speech, it seems that he also knows his identity, he is indeed a head of incense in the incense sect here, but although there are some means on the ground, but at this time these sects are not happy, after all, when the Shen Dazai of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites expelled the missionaries, he compared the Jesuits with the White Lotus Sect, and the "Notice on the Destruction of Wuwei Religion" issued by the Nanjing Ministry of Rites this year must have also reached Linqing, and the government will not distinguish what is inaction and smelling incense, although the folk sect has great energy on the ground, But it does not prevent the government from overreacting.

Thinking of this, he thought about it for a while, and struggled half to beg for mercy and half to threaten: "This Lichun Courtyard is the property of the Yongnian uncle's family, you can't touch me." ”

Zhou Qiyi's face changed when he heard this.
