In the middle of the night, a fast horse galloped down the long and silent street, making the sound of horses' hooves.

Suddenly, I heard the neighing of the horses, and someone shouted, "Who broke into the government office at night?" ”

"Jiangnan has an urgent secret letter, and it must be handed over to Shaozai."

After a group of people approached, they recognized the waist card of the person's clothing, and then hugged their fists and said politely: "It turned out to be a brother from the Duwei Mansion, you can get off the horse and rest for a while, and I will report to the young master." ”

After a while, Yang Lin put on a brocade robe, walked out, and walked quickly to the study.

"What's the report?"

The person who came took out a letter from his arms and said, "This is Zhang Xun's handwritten letter, and I want to hand it over to Shaozai for review." ”

A personal guard took it, unfolded it, and handed it to Yang Lin. Picking it up and reading it, Yang Lin said with a smile: "After all, Uncle Zhang is from an official family, and he doesn't see the problem very thoroughly. Slowly change, a hundred years may not be effective, when the decision continues to suffer from chaos.

I have 60,000 elite soldiers in Bianliang, which can be said to have been piled up with money, and it is time to take them out and see how the blade is after a long training. ”

"Come on, pen and ink are waiting."

A letter came to Bianliang, 10,000 of the 60,000 forbidden troops rode out of Kaifeng Mansion, swords and banners like a forest, armor and iron shining, and the majestic posture made the people of Kaifeng talk about it.

Yang Lin is in Dali, and it will take half a month to send the letter to Bianliang at the earliest, after this letter goes out, plus the marching time, when the Jingying Forbidden Army arrives in Jiangnan, it is already a month later.

In the city of Hangzhou, the sky is boiling, and the streets are full of scholars and people making trouble.

The gentry in the south of the Yangtze River instigated the scholars in the clan, and then spent money to buy off some people, and surrounded the patrol office.

Many soldiers were ordered to take off their armor and mingle in it, responsible for coaxing. Countless people were coerced into joining the torrent, and at first the crowd was quite restrained, just besieging the government office and shouting to rectify the corrupt officials.

The people got the news that the imperial court sent the ten governors of Jiangnan to come here in order to dismantle the box soldiers, collect heavy taxes, and recruit a new army. The Jiangnan Governor and the Governor's Mansion were bent on deducting the soldiers' salaries to the people of Jiangnan and adding five miscellaneous taxes out of thin air.

This is all a matter of chasing after the wind and shadows, and those who have a little brain don't believe it, but many people unconsciously give up their brains when they follow the crowd.

Many shabby settlements in the south of the Yangtze River, after receiving the money, made the most trouble.

Uncle Zhang looked at the chaos outside from the high-rise building at night, and he was so angry that he wanted to pack up his troops and horses and go out to quell the chaos.

Yin Muhong grabbed him stiffly, only saying that it was not time, Zhang Shuye was stunned: "Diao people are in trouble, it's not time yet?" ”

Yin Muhong sneered and said, "Look at these people, they are all sturdy young people, with little experience and no status, if there is no one to support them, they dare to take a step closer to the government office?" ”

He stayed by Yang Lin's side for a long time, and the trick of "dying of public anger", he and Yang Lin had already played perfectly.

The number of these people's roads is like a child's nonsense in his eyes, so it's embarrassing to get an axe.

Uncle Zhang thought about it carefully and felt that it made a lot of sense, and then became even more angry: "If there is still a mastermind behind the scenes, it is even more punishable." ”

Yin Muhong said with a smile: "Let's not rush to make a move first, such a small scene is not enough to lead to thunder means, we will get used to them for a while." ”

"Accustomed to them?"

"That's right, let them jump for a while."

By the end of the day, the sky was still gray, the wind was tight, and there was no one on the streets outside Hangzhou.

An old man on the city tower scalded a pot of soju and enjoyed himself with two plates of side dishes.

These soldiers worked hard all day long, and one person carried the salary of seven or eight people, and did the work of seven or eight people, but the income was only one person's weight.

The others were all included in their own pockets by the officials, this is the origin of the so-called more than 1.3 million soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty.

Suddenly, a bright light came from the distance, seven or eight cavalry approached quickly, the old pawn was startled, there was a battalion stationed on the city tower tonight, but this so-called battalion was actually only three people, and the other two rabbit cubs were still sleeping.

He kicked the snoring young descendant beside him and said, "Get up!" ”

The three of them craned their necks from the city tower and looked down, only to see that there were no large troops behind seven or eight people.

"Open the city gate, and the Beijing camp will prohibit the army from doing business."

The old man took two people and went downstairs tremblingly and opened the gate of Hangzhou.

"A huge city, just the three of you defending?" The look on the face of the person who came was incredible.

Led by Liu Qi, he was unusually admitted to the Beijing Camp Forbidden Army by Yang Lin, and he was already in command of the Ma Army, with more than 800 horses under his command.

The old pawn gritted his teeth and smiled: "Our three families have been guarding the city for generations, and both of their old sons and fathers are dead, and now it is their turn, and the little old man still has a few days to live, so he will guard for my unsuccessful son for a few days." ”

Liu Qi shook his head secretly, what kind of bird army is this, it is simply ridiculous. Isn't there a clear-eyed person in Jiangnan? Even if he neglects his duties on weekdays, and now that it is eventful, he doesn't even know how many people to send as sentinels?

What are you doing with such a rabble...

After a farcical conversation, the seven men controlled the three soldiers and took the northern city of Hangzhou in their hands.

After dawn, the people who had rested all night and regained their energy poured into the streets again.

This time they were not so honest, chaos was frequent, and most of the shops and workshops in Hangzhou City chose to open at this time.

Behind them, there are some Jiangnan gentry, and many of these shops are their industry.

Anyone who goes out into trouble in the streets can get a small amount of cloth, oil, salt, or food from here.

Slowly, there were more and more people, and gradually the water around the patrol house was blocked. On the streets on both sides of the road, in the luxurious restaurants, groups of nobles in brocade clothes, leaning on the red and emeralds, beauties serving wine and wandering remains, occasionally holding on to the railing to look at their masterpieces.

Eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, playing with the head of the Oiran line, the scum left between their teeth is enough to let the rebels below drive for them, it's good to be rich...

Stones began to be thrown at the door, and the gate was full of potholes, and the crowd was mobilized by the people in charge of the heckling, and some of the bold and brainless began to throw stones into the courtyard.

Someone set fire outside the courtyard walls, and the situation slowly became uncontrollable. In the smoky government office, many of the governor's officials were injured, and one was even hit with a stone, and his brain was covered in blood, and he was carried into the backyard for treatment.

Yin Muhong, who was on the small floor, looked at all this, and a cruel smile suddenly flashed at the corner of his mouth: "Set off the cannon flowers!" ”

With a bang, a huge sound sounded in the sky, and after Liu Qi on the city tower heard it, he ordered to go down and open the city gate.
