Chapter 55: Planning
Cellar? This really shocked Liu Chang!
The reason why I want to open Yang's house is that there has always been a legend that the Yang family has a cellar that hides thousands of taels of silver, as long as this cellar is opened, it will be a mountain of gold and silver, which is enough for Liu Chang's small army for half a year.
It's just that although this cellar is rumored to be miraculous, it is not easy to find the cellar in a hurry after opening the Yang Mansion, so Liu Chang asked, "How do you know about this cellar?" What's hidden inside? ”
Shi Yunqing didn't know much: "Since the thief swallowed up my family's gold and silver, he naturally wanted to hide it in the cellar, but my mother found out, but I really don't know how much gold and silver there is in this cellar." ”
The "my mother" he said was the Shi family who Shi Degong had remarried in recent years, and it is said that he was only seven or eight years older than Shi Yunqing, but the relationship was so good that he was about the same as his mother and son: "But according to my mother, the cellar entry was done by the stone thief and a few brothers, and it was never a fake outsider." ”
Liu Chang asked: "Is there really such a cellar where gold and silver are hidden?" ”
"There is no half-truth, if it is a half-lie, please check and chop off my head and feed it to the dogs."
Liu Chang asked some more details, but it was similar to what Liu Chang knew, the Yang Mansion where Yang Yingde lived was an old mansion, in addition to Yang Yingde's family, there were also many Yang clans, and there were seventy or eighty young people who could be immediately pulled into the battle to fight, and what made Liu Chang even more excited was that the Yang Mansion also had foreign guns.
"What I have seen with my own eyes is almost exactly the same as the foreign gun in the hand of this Yuntian Zongyun brother, there are seven such foreign guns in the house."
"Exactly the same?"
"At least the villain's eyes can't see the difference!"
It seems that this Yang Yingde also bought some foreign guns, which made the brothers of Nanxi Sentinel cheer and jump: "Check, it seems that Yang Shanren not only wants to send silver, but also foreign guns to our brothers!" ”
"Sooner rather than later, let's do it!"
"yes, check, didn't you say it? If you don't take it, you will be blamed! ”
Liu Chang is used to being careful: "After a day of practice today, everyone has worked hard, sleep well tomorrow morning, and then we won't practice, and we will go out to buy salt tomorrow afternoon." ”
He added: "This time the whole sentry of the salt dragon gun whistle and the second row of Nanxi Nan are in charge, Huo Qiu, you give me a good look at the house, and it will be your turn to buy salt next time." ”
In fact, these dragon lance posts and Nanxi posts have jointly dispatched a part of their troops to the nearby salt works to buy salt, and after the first start, there is no need to send the entire sentinel to protect the salt, with Liu Chang's prestige, a small number of troops is enough.
Therefore, everyone understood the meaning of Liu Chang's words: "Have a good rest tomorrow morning, and cross the river tomorrow afternoon to open Yang's house in one go." ”
Everyone's mood was very high, and Huo Qiu was a little dissatisfied: "Check, you should bring the first row!" ”
The first platoon is the infantry platoon that has achieved most of the flintlock pistols, which is the essence of the Nanxi outpost, but Liu Chang told him: "We have to send a tiger to watch the house, and the rock village cannot afford to lose." ”
Shi Yunqing is also a smart person: "Tomorrow I am willing to cross the river with the inspection point to buy salt, I am most familiar with this Yang mansion inside and out!" Besides, I have a big ship in my hands. ”
As soon as they heard that Shi Yunqing had a boat in his hand, everyone paid attention: "What boat?" ”
"It's best to have a boat, we can get rid of Ye Niangzi and do it ourselves!"
"Brother Shi, I'll help you operate the boat, I'm an old sailor, and I've played with the rice boat and the sampan in the rice boat."
Shi Yunqing replied: "It's a rice boat that my father hid near Panshi Village before his death, the draft is very deep, it can carry forty or fifty people in normal times, and it is absolutely no problem to squeeze hundreds of people." ”
Liu Chang nodded: "Just enough to ferry us over and transport some private salt, it's decided!" Tomorrow we'll go over and carry some salt. ”
It's just that everyone knows that this time it must be snowflake-like silver, not snowflake-like white salt.
Almost at the same time, there were also people in the south of the Oujiang River who paid attention to Panshi Village.
Two adults wearing python robes stared at the rock village under the remnant sun, and one of them even involuntarily touched his top, Wuding food or Wuding cooking, it depends on whether he can take this rock village.
There were already people on the side who were galloping quickly, and when they walked a little bit, they saw that it was a green battalion general in their thirties, and he knelt down with a plop: "Mark the right battalion guerrilla Zhuo Dalin has seen Lord Futai, and he has seen Lord Zhentai!" ”
One of these two people is the prefect of Wenzhou Ruichun, and the other is Ye Bingzhong, the deputy general of the Ruian Association and the acting chief soldier of Wenzhou Town, which can be said to be the highest military and political chief of the entire Wenzhou Prefecture.
It's just that there are both Zhejiang salt envoys and Wenchu Daodao platforms in Fucheng, and they want to personally sit in Fucheng to prevent mistakes, so they can only drive these two prefects and general soldiers with the word "acting" on their titles to the front line.
According to the grade, the prefect of Wenzhou is the fourth grade, and the general army of Wenzhou town is the second grade, which should be much higher than the prefect of Wenzhou, but in actual operation, it is the prefect who is more powerful and has more power, and the power that can be grasped is much greater, but it is above the general army.
But this Ruichun prefect was born in Mengbaqi, so it was a little reluctant for him to make suggestions, let alone such a decisive matter, Ye Bingzhong asked his old department without giving in: "Zhuo Guerrilla, has the Hongkou on the other side been clear?" ”
"Lord Baozhentai, someone has been sent to listen clearly, there are 500 men and women in the Panshi Village, the old and the weak are mixed, there are about two sentinels who can fight, there are all swords and guns, and there are one or two hundred shotguns, and a small cannon."
Zhuo Dalin's intelligence work was quite good, and he knew the details of Panshi Village clearly, so a hint of joy appeared on Ye Bingzhong's face, but he didn't forget to compliment his old boss: "Yun Si is really a god, a god!" ”
Ruichun is a person who does not have many opinions, in history he finally died in the prefect of Huzhou, when the power of Huzhou was captured by Zhao Jingxian, his prefect was simply a decoration, and finally the Taiping army broke through Huzhou, although he did not have many opinions, but because he was Mengbaqi, he was unwilling to surrender to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and died unyielding with the whole family.
And after hearing Ye Bingzhong's words, Ruichun also showed a smile: "Yun Si is a god, and Zhentai's plan is not bad!" It's just that in this Jiangbei area, in addition to Panshi Village, are there still red turbans? ”
Zhuo Dalin also heard clearly: "Lord Futai, please rest assured that the main force of the Red Kou is now besieging the Dajing camp, even if they return in a hurry, at least it will take a day and a night to reach Panshi Village!" ”
"As for the thief deputy marshal Ni Tingmo, although there are more than 1,000 people, they are far away at the junction of Jiangbei and Wen, and they can't be rescued."
He continued: "On the front line of the river, there are only these five hundred thieves in the Panshi Village, in addition, the Hongkou is still in the county seat recently, but the number of troops is only a few hundred, and self-protection is still a problem. ”
Ruichun was still relieved: "What do you mean is that no matter how many soldiers and horses we have crossed, we will only deal with hundreds of red soldiers in the rock village?" Is it true that there are only these five hundred red cowards? What if there are reinforcements from the Red Bandits? ”
