Chapter 21 21

From the rise of the thieves to the present, the Jingying of the Great Jing Dynasty still has no example of facing the same defeat of the exiles, let alone being defeated by a few thieves.

The most important thing is that there are elite collective thieves in Beijing, this matter is not trivial, as a militaristic weapon, do not think of repaying the emperor's favor with death, whose responsibility is this, there is no doubt that it is the responsibility of the chief officer.

Wang Zike's face was a little ugly, and he asked astringently: "Please also show the little marquis." "Cao Shinian is Cao Qianlie's nephew, and according to the law of the Great Jing Dynasty, he is the title of Marquis of Cheng, so Wang Zi can say this.

Cao Shinian said coldly: "Hmph, General Wang Bing, Yang Jianjun." ”

"I'll wait." At this moment, Wang Zike and Yang Chengchao knew that it was not the time to play around, and they also made enough gestures.

Cao Shinian said: "I won't say anything now, the most important thing is to eliminate General Chi immediately, after all, Huaiqing Mansion City was also captured by thieves under my nose, and I don't want to embarrass you with this matter." ”

"Yes, yes, I would like to thank the little marquis for his kindness." Wang Zike hurriedly said.

"But, I think you should know what you will do in the future." Cao Shinian said a little jokingly.

"I will obey the orders of the little marquis in the future." The two top decision-makers in Beijing patted their chests and said.

"Okay." Hearing this, Cao Shinian suddenly got up+ and said: "From today on, your Beijing camp will go all out to hunt down General Chi, and I will lead the ghost-faced cavalry to follow up in the rear, and I must eliminate this group of rogues within half a month." ”

"We will obey." Everyone below bowed their heads with their fists clenched, and each of them had a solemn face.

After all, only by annihilating General Chi can the shame be washed away, otherwise, I really don't know what Emperor Jiachong will do to them under his anger.

In Wheat Mountain.

Seeing that there were more than 2,000 people at the bottom, Liu Qing also felt an achievement.

However, when he saw Du Chenggeng with a lupine towel on the side, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion, this scholar's mind is poisonous. Thinking of this, his mind couldn't help but drift to a few days ago.

At that time, when they were arguing over the end of the prisoners in the Beijing camp, Du Chenggeng said to Liu Qing: "Master, the villain has a way. ”

Hearing his words, Liu Qing, who was in distress, motioned for him to continue, but when he finished speaking, everyone was a little shocked. Du Chenggeng smiled a little, and with the appearance of him holding a sharp-beaked monkey gills, it was indescribably funny.

However, his words were not funny at all, he said: "This matter is easy, just combine the big and small officials in this Beijing camp together, and let these soldiers give a knife each, and then hehe." ”

Speaking of this, Du Chenggeng paused for a moment and said: "Isn't there still a population in this Huaiqing Mansion City, let these soldiers of the Beijing camp kill one or two more, these people who were killed by the Beijing camp will not say that the Beijing camp is a thief?" At that time, even if they don't want to follow us, the world is so big, there will be no place for them. ”

After everyone heard it, they were a little scared, from the words in Du Chenggeng's mouth, all of them floated out of the life, although everyone was a fighter, and there was not much fear of life and death, but seeing Du Chenggeng decide the life and death of thousands of people between talking and laughing, it still made people feel uncomfortable for a while.

Seeing that Du Chenggeng finished speaking, and then shook his fan again, Zheng Yiling first said: "My lord, ......" but Liu Qing interrupted his words and pondered by himself.

That Du Chenggeng said leisurely: "Master, if you keep interrupting, you will suffer from it." Liu Qing took a breath and said, "You can handle this matter." After speaking, he went out on his own, and Du Chenggeng bowed his head and obeyed.

At that time, the officers among the soldiers of the Beijing camp were tied to the pillars, and the soldiers of the Beijing camp were asked to go up and give a knife alone, and if they hesitated slightly, they were immediately beheaded, and then they were driven to the city of Huaiqing Mansion to wreak havoc.

The entire Huaiqing Mansion City resounded with this cry, resounded with a miserable howl, and resounded with despair.

However, just as Liu Qing's thoughts were flying, a voice woke him up.

But Sun Dadou hurriedly ran over and said: "General, according to our scout report, now that Huaiqing Mansion has been overturned, the officers and soldiers have started a large-scale search, it is estimated that it will not be long before they will come to find our place, and please make a decision quickly." ”

"Huh?" When he heard the news, Liu Qing was indeed surprised, although after conquering Huaiqing Mansion for the second time, he thought that the officers and soldiers would definitely not give up, but now the officers and soldiers had such a huge reaction, which was indeed a bit unexpected by him.

But this is nothing, now the number of people in the Dingying camp has expanded unprecedentedly, there are more than 3,000 people, although there are more than 1,000 people in it are coerced officers and soldiers of the Beijing camp, but Liu Qing believes that these soldiers who have no way back will soon be integrated into the collective of the Dingying camp.

After all, this is the place where they can live safely, even temporarily.

And what made Liu Qing more confident was the captured weapons and armor.

As the garrison of the Beijing camp, Huaiqing Mansion has hoarded enough weapons and armor, just the armor, there are more than 300 pairs of light iron armor, although it is only two armor, but for the Dingyu camp that has been lacking sufficient protection, it is already rare and valuable.

There are also a few Mingguang armor, which aroused the envy of several subordinates, but Liu Qing asked people to completely blacken the Mingguang armor, in his words, the Mingguang armor is too conspicuous, which is indeed not conducive to their concealment, which makes several subordinates who want to show off a little embarrassed.

And there are three small artillery, more than 20 guns, and as for other odds and pieces, there are also a lot of them, which finally makes the Dingyu camp look different.

After several battles, the soldiers also matured rapidly, and the saying that war fighting is the best way to train has been confirmed here, but with the increase in numbers, some of the establishments have also changed.

In the past, Liu Qing wanted to re-develop a military system, but later, in this era, it was a little unworkable, after all, it was not in line with some practices at that time, so Liu Qing also decisively carried forward the doctrine of taking it and moved the system of the Dajing Dynasty over.

Ten people are a small flag, 50 people are a general flag, two general flags are 100 households, 1000 households are 1,000 households, and 5,000 households are set up as a commander.

Now there are only more than 3,000 people in the Dingyu camp, so of course the position of commander is not considered, but who should belong to the three thousand households is a lot of trouble for Liu Qing.

There are more than a dozen of his generals, and everyone wants to be motivated, but there are only a few seats.

After a lot of discussions, Sun Dadou, Zheng Yiling, and Qian Xing were appointed as Qianhu.

This is also a result that Liu Qing came to after considering the interests of all parties.

Sun Dadou is the old brother in the Ten Horses, and his prestige is very high, so it is understandable to give him a thousand households.

Zheng Yiling has made two great contributions, and he has saved him once, which is also acceptable.

As for Qian Xing, he considered the issue of the surrender of the 1,000 Beijing battalions, and gave them an old officer and soldier to serve as the chief officer, which could always make these panicked people have a little comfort.

Others, also have their own appointments, Wang Hengxian was also a little unhappy at first, although he didn't care so much about the official position, but seeing that Sun Dadou was now a dignified and happy look, he was still a little sullen.

However, when he heard that he was appointed by Liu Qing as the captain of the personal guard, that unhappiness disappeared.

The hundred guards around Liu Qing are the most elite strength in the camp, and the equipment is also the best, Liu Qing handed over the guard camp to him to lead, what kind of huge trust is this.

Song Dagui, Gu Liangyong, Zheng Shinian, Gao Xiaoxi, Pi Li Needle, Chen Yaowang, Ding Laosan, Cao Shangfei, Golden Wing, and Han Qiyu were also appointed as one hundred households.

Han Qiyu is the little soldier who saved Wang Heng's life, after the war, Wang Heng and it reunited again, and Wang Heng, who was overjoyed, recommended it to Liu Qing, and at the time of the lack of officers, Liu Qing was quickly promoted to the head of a hundred households.

Due to the large number of official positions, Liu Qing had to quickly promote cadres, all of whom were some people who broke through Huaiqing Mansion City for the first time, and it could be regarded as realizing the words of common honor and disgrace promised at that time.

There are still some vacant seats, which have not been distributed, which is to prepare some meritorious personnel in the future, and it can be regarded as a thought for the rest of the camp, many times, people need a hope to move up.

As for Du Chenggeng, he was taken by Liu Qing, and after such a time, everyone had some inexplicable fear of this lupine scarf, and this person didn't know whether he could trust it, so he could only take it with him.

In any case, the Dingyu camp finally has a prototype, if the time when the first time the Huaiqing Mansion City was broken through, it was the day when the Dingqing Battalion was established, then after the second attack on Huaiqing Mansion City, the Dingyu Battalion is gradually moving towards his growth.

This is where Liu Qing's confidence comes from.

Just when Liu Qing in Maishan was planning the future, Cao Shinian's 1,000 ghost riders had already returned to Huaiqing Mansion City again, and behind him, followed by Wang Zike's 20,000 Beijing camp army, plus the local Qianhu Guard, there were nearly 50,000 men and horses, and this net was laid here in northern Henan.

Looking at Huaiqing Mansion City, which had almost become a ruin, listening to the words between those surviving officials and gentry, Wang Zike's face was a little ugly, Cao Shinian's words were true, and his own Beijing camp actually did such a thing.

And Cao Shinian's face is not very good-looking, this red general is really a little hateful. This time the incident was a bit beyond his expectations, the city was broken for the second time in just a few days, which made the local officials in northern Henan also frightened, and it was already reported to the Jingshi through the channel again and again.

And yesterday, the holy decree of Jingshi has arrived, and it severely reprimanded him, and the clear-eyed person knows that it is not his responsibility, but Yang Yongchang deliberately insisted on the fact that Cao Shinian was the overall person in charge of northern Henan, which made Emperor Jiachong throw his anger at him.

This made him angry with Yang Yongchang at the same time, but also to Liu Qing, he had a kind of quarterly desire to get rid of the feelings, he knew in his heart that now he was a little helpless against Yang Yongchang, so he could only prove himself by exterminating the thieves as soon as possible.

Besides, he actually looks down on the thieves from the bottom of his heart, that Red General, isn't he the defeated general of the Ghost Mask Rider, the perennial victory, this little marquis is inevitably contaminated with a trace of unique arrogance.

He said to the officials below who were mainly Wang Zike: "Search, even if it is three feet over, we must find where General Chi is now." After speaking, he took out Cao Qianlie's order again, and the meaning of it was self-evident.

"Yes." Hearing Cao Shinian's words, all the officials below hurriedly spoke, full of a trace of fear, especially Wang Zike always felt that Cao Shinian's eyes were looking at him.

Looking at Cao Shinian's expression at this moment, Wang Zike has a trace of fear in his heart, no one knows the doorway better than him, Lord Shoufu is very unpleasant to see Lord Dingguo, on the other hand, Lord Dingguo is not so respectful when he looks at Lord Shoufu, and now the wind is not in the right direction, he has been assigned to Dingguo Gong, and the small shoes in the future must be indispensable.

Thinking of this, Wang Zike could only sigh secretly, but he also had his own thoughts, as long as he could exterminate this group of thieves alone, wouldn't he be able to earn face for Lord Shoufu, at that time, hum.

And Cao Shinian didn't know what Wang Zike was thinking at the moment, so he could only ask everyone to hurry up to find the whereabouts of General Chi, and he was also returning to the barracks, and he still had a very important matter to deal with quickly.

A few days ago, his uncle, that is, Cao Tianlie, the Duke of Dingguo, gave him a letter, but this letter was just a private letter, but the content of the explanation made Cao Shinian have to pay attention to it.

The letter said that a branch of their Cao family, that is, the current Huaiqing prefect Cao Xuanwang, was captured by thieves, and Cao Shinian was required to ensure the safety of their family.

Seeing this letter, Cao Shinian had to pay attention to it, his uncle Dingguo Gong was a righteous and majestic person, and there was a trace of worry in the letter, from the letter, Cao Shinian could see that his distant elder and his uncle must have a very deep friendship, and in fact, Cao Tianlie and Cao Xuanwang did have a very good relationship.

Dingguo Mansion is a big family, every year some branches will come to settle down elsewhere, this is also a way of survival of the big family, and Cao Xuanwang is Jiachong's three-year jinshi, when he entered Beijing to catch the exam, and Cao Qianlie met, the two sides hit it off at first sight, and compared the family tree, knowing that both sides are a bloodline person, and the relationship is even more intimate.

And Cao Wenlie, Cao Shinian's biological father, was also young and frivolous with his eldest brother and Cao Xuanwang at that time, at that time, in the distant Jingshi, the three of them were called "Cao's Sanying".

However, later Cao Xuanwang went to the local government to be an official, and Cao Qianlie and Cao Wenlie, brothers became knights and stationed in Beijing, and with the passage of time, this story slowly became a little silent, so Cao Shinian didn't know everything in it.

But this does not hinder Cao Shinian's mood, he admires his uncle very much, in his opinion, his uncle Cao Qianlie is almost omnipotent, invincible, invincible, the general trend of the world is in his chest, and the world is in full view.
