Chapter 42: The Old Marshal Sends Out Troops
Chapter 42: The Old Marshal Sends Out Troops
Lin He and Xie Fang had pondered countless times, hoping to find out the truth of Yu Niang's case, but now, the truth was in front of their eyes, and these two did not have the slightest joy at all.
Xie Rizi, a liar, spoke very methodically, and the two of them only understood the relationship between the scene he described and Yu Niang's case after a little brainstorm.
The old woman who was beheaded should be Yu Niang's mother-in-law, and the head of the Ming Sect, whom they called the Heavenly King, was Yu Niang's husband before remarrying...... Why did Granny Li suddenly kill her mother? It's very simple, she found out that Yu Niang secretly met with her ex-husband, and felt that she was against women's morals!
Why did my mother-in-law suddenly disappear? It's also very simple, she was taken away by Yu Niang's ex-husband! Before they could come to investigate, the big man took the lead!
But all this information is not as good as the title that Xie Rizi confided - the king of heaven.
Xie Fang's face turned slightly pale, he glanced at Lin He calmly, and then said to Jin Tian: "Shut his mouth, you two take this guy with me!" ”
Jin Tian picked up the piece of firewood again, the blood stains on the firewood were blackened, and Xie Rivezi fainted with a scream, saving Jin Tian a lot of things.
"This matter is not easy to do, the court has long hated the matter of Mingjiao, and now that Jiangling Mansion has dug up such a rebel, I must tell my father, and he will make arrangements, this matter is no longer something that the two of us can decide!"
Lin He nodded immediately, and that was what he meant when he came over to Xie Fang. He faintly felt that something was wrong before, and went to ask Xie Fang for help, just thinking that if there was any problem, Xie Lin's head would be relatively big and he could afford to carry this pot.
After all, he used lynching to try the deeds of Mingjiao, which is not easy to cover up at the beginning, plus the sect's rebellion is an extremely sensitive matter in all dynasties, a little bit worse, maybe Lin and this little fish will also have to drown in this pool of deep water.
Hearing Xie Fang say this, Lin He breathed a sigh of relief: "Uncle Zhong, drive the family's carriage out, and I will escort this guy to Xie Mansion with Gongzi Xie, Jin Tian, you bring him with me!" ”
Lin He didn't say anything nonsense that if you let people run away, you will be cut by a thousand knives, who can be a guard in a big family like the Xu family in this year, which one is a fool? Jin Tian may be a little more honest, but if he is an idiot who doesn't know the severity, Lin Yue will definitely not arrange for him to enter the Lin family.
Jin Tian also figured out the seriousness of the matter at this time, seeing that Xie Rizi had fainted, he still stretched out his hand uneasily, and with a plop, the firewood was inserted into Xie Rizi's mouth again, this time it really hurts to look at, Xie Fang couldn't help wiping the cold sweat, Xie Rizi was even more convulsed in a coma, and he didn't know if there would be any serious problems.
There was nothing to say all the way, the carriage galloped, and soon came to the Xie Mansion, and the servants who came to report the news had already explained, the gate of the Xie Mansion was opened, and the carriage rushed directly under the guidance of Xie Fang. This is quite a faux pas!
It wasn't until before the lobby that Lin and a few people got out of the car. As soon as he landed, he looked up and was immediately stunned.
I saw Xie Lin, who was over seventy years old with fluttering white hair, and after a while, he was already wearing light armor all over his body, and he was sitting majestically in the lobby, with a five-foot-long big knife in his hand, which was quite inconsistent with his slightly thin body.
Seeing Lin He's stunned stupidity, Xie Lin stroked his beard and snorted dissatisfiedly: "Could it be that in your mind, the old man is a rotten Confucian who has no power to restrain the chicken?" ”
Lin He lowered his head, today's Xie Lin and the usual judgment were like two people, just sitting there, not even moving, under the slanting eyes, Lin He actually felt that his legs were trembling faintly. He gradually realized in his heart that this was murderous!
Although Xie Lin is a civil servant, he spends almost all of his time on horseback except for governing the place, and this is a scholar who implements the six arts of scholars quite thoroughly. As the saying goes, Wen can raise the pen to settle the world, and Wu can go to the horse to set the world.
It's just that......
Lin He was secretly worried, after all, this Xie Lin was over seventy years old, and according to history, Xie Lin should be buried at this time...... If it weren't for his own dose of penicillin, this old man would still be rebellious, and he would have been afraid that it would be rotten in the soil.
Lin He glanced at Xie Fang with slanted eyes, but saw that his face was as usual, and even let out a sigh of relief, obviously the pressure of the Ming Sect made this fifteen-year-old young man a little overwhelmed. And all the pressure does not exist after seeing Xie Lin.
"Father, the prisoner has been brought and confirmed, and it is indeed the remnant of Mingjiao. He confessed that in the Dahong Rice Shop on East Street, there was a big man of their Ming Sect, Pan Huan, who was said to have run away from the displaced people in Quang Nam. ”
"Quang Nam?"
Xie Lin squinted: "I can't imagine that the remnants of the Ming Sect are so cunning, the land of Guangnan, hehe, what a means!" ”
"Come on, take the prisoner to the back room and take care of it! He is not allowed to come into contact with anyone! ”
"Where is the old man's own soldiers!"
Xie Lin shouted loudly, and the response was like thunder!
"The armor is here!"
Hundreds of neatly cloaked soldiers suddenly emerged from the shadows of the Xie Mansion. Lin You just looked around for a week, and immediately felt shocked in his heart, although these soldiers were not tall, their expressions were not hideous, and even their expressions were too cold, but he subconsciously wanted to stay away from these people.
This is a hundred battles!
In fact, the current war is very different from that of later generations, limited to communication conditions and command methods, and it is difficult for the commander's instructions to be directly transmitted to the grassroots troops as in later generations, so the commander-in-chief must have a strong armed force by his side to ensure the commander's safety.
On the battle array, once there is a problem in the commander's formation, resulting in the failure to issue orders such as flag orders and drum orders in time, the subordinate troops lacking command can easily collapse and move the whole body, which is often the beginning of the rout of the army.
Therefore, when the ancient army was fighting, the commander must have a group of the most loyal and powerful combat units around him, and most of these troops were the commander's servants. These family servants are all retired from the army, limited to shares, after all, raising such a strong manpower, it is easy to attract the emperor's suspicion, therefore, like Xie Lin, there are more than a hundred strong family members, even if it is very powerful.
These family members are Xie Lin's talisman on the battlefield, and when they are advantageous, they are the guarantee of the Chinese army's battalion, and when they are disadvantaged, they are the last ray of life around Xie Lin.
How can such a team not be strong?
Seeing that Xie Lin had already lifted the knife, Lin He said loudly with some concern: "Gong Xie can't be impulsive, if you use the knife without permission, I'm afraid that it will be in the way with Gong Xie, do you want to inform Lord Zhizhou and the transfer envoy before taking action?" ”
Xie Lin snorted angrily, and the long knife turned into a knife flower, if it wasn't for Lin He's quick hiding, he would have almost confessed to him this time.
"Ignorant child, the military law has been decided, and the military order has been issued, but those who disturb the morale of the army will be decided!"
"Goal! Dahong rice shop! ”
"Let's go!"
Lin He watched Xie Lin turn over and get on the horse, and went out with his family in a menacing manner.
He was still a little worried, the old man's move, it was really taboo!
Xie Fang rolled his eyes at him, yawned and said helplessly: "I don't know what you about, why do you need to worry about my father's affairs?" ”
"Daddy got the emperor's order, the right to know the four states, was ordered to clean up the rebellion, and now he hasn't returned to Beijing to pay the order, and now my father is the biggest around, not to mention that the emperor's order itself is to sweep the rebellion, and the name is justified."
"Okay, okay, scattered, go to sleep......"
Lin Yu smiled bitterly, he was salty and eating radishes. But Xie Fang's heart is really big, his father is seventy years old and has been in the battle formation, he still has the heart to sleep?
