Chapter 44: Gunsmith Today's second update
After the four of them left, Lin Yi pondered, many of these generals in the city are the henchmen of the garrison lord Wang Cheng, they don't know that there is me Lin Yi, they only know that there is a garrison Wang Cheng who is afraid of the enemy and afraid of war, how can this be done, it will be bad at the critical moment, and the general must be changed immediately, not to mention anything else, the four guards must be changed.
But in special times, the matter of changing generals is not trivial. The main reason is that Lin Yi has just arrived, for Lin Yi and the more than 1,000 old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers, both sides are fresh faces, and at this time, changing generals and moving the whole body must be cautious.
Lin Yi took Xiaoying and others down to the city, and immediately came to see Zu Keyong and Wang Jian.
Now the injuries of these two people have stabilized, but they can't get out of bed yet, but their brains are good, and they can give Lin Yi ideas and be a staff officer, and Lin Yi ordered Zhang Shouye to be invited.
After these few things, Lin Yi knew that this Zhang Shouye was a rare good official among Yongping's staff, not to mention whether he was greedy or not, honest or not, loyal to the Ming Dynasty, loyal to the court, and concerned about the people, in comparison, this is a good official. To defend Yongping City, he is a available candidate, and there are many things that Lin Yi intends to consult him.
Tui guan since the Tang Dynasty, after the development of the five dynasties of the Song and Yuan dynasties, to the Ming Dynasty of the Tui official from the sixth grade or the seventh grade of the official civil officials, each prefecture and county are set up one, belongs to the deputy position, in charge of the criminal name, praise the code.
Don't look at the push official is a six or seven grade sesame official, or a deputy position, but it is the first official position of the new jinshi in the Ming Dynasty, it can be seen that the imperial court attaches great importance to the push official, and it also shows the importance of this official position, and its power and responsibility are probably equivalent to the public security department in later generations.
The Ming Dynasty also produced a lot of officials who made achievements, such as Yuan Keli, who enforced the law impartially and was not afraid of violence, and impeached the Sipin Imperial Hall, which shocked for a while.
Now this Yongping magistrate Zhang Shouye, who is also an official loyal to the Ming court, is also busy sweating profusely, seeing Lin Yi is full of interest, even the family wealth of the magistrate, the prefect and other staff, as well as the businessmen, wealthy and local tyrants and gentry, their money has been collected, a total of 50,000 taels of silver.
Of course, Lin Yi is also very happy, money leads to the divine path, and money can make ghosts grind, and with this batch of silver, the problem will be solved.
It seems that the Ming Dynasty is not out of money, the silver is smuggled, the court has no money, the common people have no money, and those officials and businessmen and wealthy households, local tyrants and inferior gentry have silver.
Next, Lin Yi proposed the matter of changing generals.
Wang Jian frowned when he heard this: "My lord, changing generals in battle is a taboo for soldiers, and if it causes a mutiny among soldiers, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Lin Yi said: "Lord Wang is reasonable, and this Lin also has considerations. It's just that if you don't change generals, Lin can assert that the four guards are now Wang Cheng's henchmen, don't look at the silver now, they are excited, only promised, and they don't recognize people when the silver is in their pockets, and they may not be able to obey Lin's military orders at critical moments, and there is a mess at the city gate, and the consequences are unimaginable. ”
"Raised by a son of a bitch, how did Wang Chengxiong become a garrison, if he was under the command of Lao Tzu, he would have been wiped out a long time ago!"
Zu Keyong scolded, his head shook like a rattle, this matter was too tricky for him, let him go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, and it was no problem to command the troops to charge, this kind of brain-using thing was his shortcoming.
"It......'s really urgent," Zhang Shouye, the official of the promotion, stroked his beard in his hand, paced back and forth, thinking about it.
After a while, Zhang Shouye said: "This official also feels that he must change the four guards, Wang Cheng, this kid is a corrupt official, and most of the people he has cultivated are corrupt people, and they are embarrassed and useful." However, now that everyone is watching Lord Lin kill one, and he has used strict orders to increase the reward of the oath master, those old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers are estimated to have been deterred by Lord Lin, and it may not be impossible to change the generals at this time. ”
Lin Yi said: "Change will be inevitable, it is urgent, and we must make a decision immediately." Lin is a shallow learner and a newcomer, and I hope you can recommend a few suitable candidates. ”
Three stinkers, one Zhuge Liang. As soon as these civil and military officers discussed, the four guards soon had a candidate.
If the Tartars are coming, it must be the West Gate that bears the brunt, so the West Gate is very important. unanimously suggested, Lin Yi asked Zhang Shouye to personally lead people to guard the West Gate, and Zhang Shouye did not refuse.
Among the 18 people who came to Lin Yi, 12 people can now directly participate in the battle, among these twelve people, there is a general flag commander Zhao Tingshou, and the two small flag commanders are Yang Fang and Zhao Sheng, both of whom are the old subordinates of Ning Yuanjun Zu Keyong, and the survivors who can follow Zu Keyong and Lin Yi to kill the current are definitely the elite of the elite.
After Zu Keyong's recommendation, Lin Yi immediately entrusted him with a heavy task, ordering the three flag chiefs to guard the south gate, the east gate and the north gate respectively, Lin Yi held a meeting with the new four gate guards, Zhang Shouye needless to say, for many years as an official, experienced, mainly three flag commanders, the first to perform heavy duties, and no henchmen, Lin Yi told them to be extremely cautious, discerning, set an example, do not take it lightly, otherwise it is a trivial matter to lose the city, harm the people, and the crime is unforgivable.
Then, the four will immediately arrive at the handover.
Sure enough, the handover of the four main generals was surprisingly smooth, and they did not encounter the slightest resistance, but the four of them did not dare to be careless at all, and immediately set out to find out the basic situation of the subordinate generals and cultivate their cronies.
Next, Lin Yidu gave Xiaoying and Dongsheng a special task, so that the two of them didn't have to worry about the battle at the head of the city, and arranged a few errands for him from the Tuiguan Yamen, so that they could lead people to mobilize the people to help defend the city, of course, they had to give some silver, which should be called recruitment.
Xiaoying and Dongsheng took the order......
Lin Yi led people to the top of the city for the second time, and now the city is busy, Zhang Hua, Erhu, He Tao, Wang Qi four people have returned to the city to hand over the order, the nearby people have all withdrawn into the city, within a radius of ten miles, all the things that can be taken are transported into the city, and the rest are all destroyed on the spot.
Lin Yi stood at the head of the west city, guarding the main general, accompanied by Zhang Shouye, the city's magistrate, and the Tartars could be seen galloping in the distance, the dust and sand were all over the sky, and in the blink of an eye, the soldiers were coming to the city.
Lin Yi ordered the four gates to be closed, the drawbridge to be pulled up, and the jack gate to be lowered, without his order, no one was allowed to open the city, and those who violated the order were beheaded. The soldiers at the head of the city were ready to fight, and they immediately entered the first level of combat readiness.
Amin took a large number of Tartars to burn and loot along the way, and the first period of life was very nourishing, killing, arsoning, robbing, adultery, and everywhere he went, the flames were blazing and wailing everywhere.
But later, especially within ten miles of the city, there was not a single bird feather left for him.
However, Amin was happy when he saw Yongping City, which for him could be described as a revisit to his old place, and he had a special taste in his heart.
Because he fell in love with this place five years ago, and after he and Azig took this city, they also went in to live for a while, and they felt good about themselves, if it wasn't for Huang Taiji who had to transfer him back, he was really willing to divide it here and become a hegemon.
Now, Amin has made up his mind. After taking Yongping, he vowed never to go back. The thousands of soldiers and generals brought were all elites with blue flags and red flags, and after Yue Tuo's illness was cured, the two of them took this as their home and took root in Yongping and never left. There are elite soldiers, strong cities, mountains and rivers, and the people are simple, which is much stronger than those barbaric places outside the gates.
What's more, I don't have to go back to see Huang Taiji's face!
The Tartars galloped and rushed to the bank of the moat in the blink of an eye.
The moat is wide, the gates are closed, the drawbridge hangs high, and the walls glow bronze at sunset, giving it a heavy feel.
However, the army on the head of the city is sparse and sparse, and the banners of the Ming army and various generals flying high are all in a dilapidated and decadent color.
After Amin read it, his big fleshy face showed a contemptuous and smug attitude, and he pointed in the air with a horsewhip and shouted to the city through the moat: "It is difficult for the south to be on the city, open the city quickly, otherwise Benbel will kill into the city, and the chickens and dogs will not be left!"
"Benbel came here five years ago, and now you still can't hold on, don't try to resist, have you heard of my Amin's prestige?" ……
His words were amplified by his Tartar generals, and the sound shook through the sky.
He shouted several times, but there was no movement on the city.
Of course, Amin didn't know that when he was showing off his might and shouting under the city wall, Lin Yi at this time was also standing at the battlement at the head of the city, and when he saw Amin talking wildly below, he took a three-eyed firearm from a firearms soldier.
As a special soldier, he is a master of playing with firearms, what long guns and short guns, big guns and small guns, the speed of disassembly and assembly can be calculated in seconds, and the shooting results are also 100 shots, daggers and military stabs, all kinds of bombs, airplanes, tanks, ships, rockets, parachutes, diving, it can be said that water, land and air are omnipotent.
But now how to take this three-eyed firecracker, how to look awkward, does this old antique work? The firearms of the Ming Dynasty!
Lin Yi's slanderous and jerky actions surprised the people around him, Zhang Hua, He Tao, Erhu, Wang Qi and others are also old comrades-in-arms with Lin Yi, and said secretly: "Lord Lin still plays this thing?" We've never touched ......."
Especially the firearm soldier next to him, after giving the gun to Lin Yi, seeing that Lin Yi was so unfamiliar, he was puzzled, since the adults couldn't let go of the guns, why did they have to go beyond the bounds? He hastened to explain to you how to use the Three-Eyed Gun.
Lin Yi listened without saying a word, put the gun on the battlement, and began to aim like a three-eight big cover......
At this time, Amin outside the city shouted several times, but no one paid attention to him, neither opened the city nor accosted him, and there was no movement.
Amin was on fire, and when he arrived at the moat, he bent his bow and arrows, and with a whoosh, a sharp arrow broke through the air, flew more than 100 meters, and then shot to the city, a veteran of the Ming army, unable to dodge, fell in a pool of blood with a scream.
"Siege!" Amin let out a loud shout.
But before his shout fell, there was a crisp sound from the top of the city, and after a puff of white smoke, Amin felt a chill on his head, and red blood came down......
