Chapter 540 South pacifies the people
After Du Yinxi parked his troops outside the city, he only brought Man Da Zhuang and a few guards into the city.
He is nearly fifty years old, but he walks extremely fast, "What about Fu Shangrui?" ”
Chen Youlong and the others hurriedly followed him, their clothes and armor rubbing loudly, "Back to Futai, Fu Thief and Liu Thief ran east, they must have gone to take refuge in Duoduo." ”
When Du Yinxi heard this, he stopped, but walked up quickly, "Fu Shangrui is familiar with the terrain of Hubei, and he knows that our army is armed, so there will be endless troubles if he is let go." ”
Chen Youlong lowered his head, "The last general is incompetent." ”
"It's not your fault for that." As he walked, he suddenly changed the topic and asked, "Where is the Qing army now?" ”
"It should be out of Huangzhou Mansion soon." Chen Youlong thought for a while and added: "From Huanggang to Wuchang, there are no soldiers and horses to defend, and many horses and horses in the east have been transferred by Fu thieves. ”
"The soldiers and horses of Sanjiangkou and Bailuji have also withdrawn?"
"It's all gone!"
Du Yinxi's face sank when he heard this, and he asked again: "Where are the men and horses of Inspector He?" ”
"The last general also entered the city today, and he doesn't know the situation of the superintendent."
"How many people are there in Wuchang?"
"There are still more than 10,000 people in the last general, plus Wang Ding. In addition, there are also some people who have figured out that Fu Thief went to surrender to clear out of Fu Thief one after another and returned from the east, which cannot be counted for the time being. ”
Du Yinxi stopped again, frowned, and said: "This person, no matter how to defend Wuchang, the city wall is not satisfied." ”
The generals stopped, and there was silence.
Du Yinxi locked his eyebrows and thought for a while, and said to Chen Youlong: "General Chen, you immediately send a fast horse to Chengtianfu and urge Inspector He to quickly lead the troops across the river. ”
Chen Youlong immediately hugged his fists and promised, the only one who could not give He Tengjiao face like this was to block Yinxi.
At this time, Du Yinxi nodded, and ordered Man Dazhuang again: "Mandu Town, you take the sailor to the east of the Sanjiang Estuary immediately, be sure to block the Qing soldiers' ships, when to withdraw, wait for the order of the general." ”
Sailing on the Yangtze River, one is to go downstream, the other is to go upstream, go down the water needless to say, go upstream, in addition to relying on the pulp, is to operate the sail, even if a good sailor is not downwind, but also by adjusting the angle of the sail, so that the ship sails, if there is no technology, then it can only be like Duoduo, manual fiber.
"Lord Futai, rest assured, the last general will definitely live up to his mission." Man Dazhuang solemnly agreed.
Du Yinxi said again: "Mandu Town is a water division, who of the generals is willing to go together." ”
Several generals glanced at each other, and Wang Ding and Yan Wenjie clasped their fists and said: "The last general is willing to take 4,000 men and horses from the headquarters to guard the Sanjiangkou." ”
Du Yinxi nodded approvingly, "At the end of the Han Dynasty, Sanjiangkou Zhou Lang set fire and defeated Cao Cao, Ben Fu did not ask the two generals to defeat Duoduo, but he wanted to be able to delay the Qing army for some time, once He Du Shi arrived in Wuchang, Ben Fu immediately ordered the two to retreat into the city. ”
"Futai rest assured, but there is a soldier and a pawn, and the Qing army will never be in Wuchang." The faces of the two generals were full of determination.
"Great!" Plug Yinxi praised, "On the day of returning to the city, Ben Fu should lead the horses for the two!" ”
The three of them immediately clenched their fists and left, and Du Yinxi looked at their backs, looked at them for a while, and waved his hand: "Enter the city!" ”
A few people walked quickly, and only after entering the city gate did they feel that the atmosphere in Wuchang City was not right, and the more they went into the city, the more strange they felt, and there were no people on the street?
This is the largest city in Huguang, although it has been burned down and wars several times, and the household registration has suffered heavy losses, but when He Tengjiao moved the people of northern Hubei Province, he resettled more than 100,000 people here, and it did not become like this.
Chen Youlong saw Du Yinxi's expression, and hurriedly explained: "Futai, I went to the yamen to petition." ”
After listening to this, he went straight to the direction of the government, and now that the governor is not there, the governor has surrendered, and Wuchang can be said to be leaderless.
After a few people walked for a while, they were still separated by two streets, and they heard the sound of people in front of them, and when they turned a street corner, they found that there was no road. Because the streets are all occupied by the people, and the water that is surrounded cannot be drained!
This is the reason why Chen Youlong was in a hurry to ask Yin Xi to enter the city, so he was almost surrounded in the ya, and now only You Youlun, the governor of Wuchang, is surrounded in it.
In just a few days, the people of Wuchang first heard that hundreds of thousands of Qing troops had entered the Kou, and then Liu Chengyin fled back to Wuchang first, and then Chen Youlong's troops also retreated, and there was a fire fight in the city, how could the people of Wuchang not be frightened.
For a time, all kinds of rumors were inevitable, some believed that Fu Shangrui surrendered to the Qing, some said that Chen Youlong was sent by the Qing soldiers to drive away the governor, and then sacrifice the city, and some said that the official army was ready to abandon Wuchang and retreat to Hunan, in short, the people were shaken.
Just one year has passed since the last Huguang War, and the people have just settled down, and the hair on their heads has just been able to be tied up again, so do they have to shave their hair again, especially the people who have seen the slaughter and plundering of the Qing soldiers, and they are suddenly panicked.
Some people came to the government, hoping to hold Wuchang, because Wang Yan killed the Eight Banners outside Wuchang City, and dozens of important members of the Qing court died in Wuchang, and the Qing soldiers reoccupied Wuchang There is no reason not to retaliate, and most of them will slaughter the city.
Chen Youlong didn't think so at first, and came forward to promise that he would stick to the city, but he didn't expect that the people didn't believe him, and they were still unwilling to disperse, but gathered more and more.
The general suggested that he directly send troops to disperse, but in this way, I am afraid that the gentry and the people really think that he is the one who is ready to surrender to the Qing, so he rejected the suggestion, but he has no other way, so he has no other way but to let Zhizhou You Youlun come forward to appease the people, and he slipped away through the back door and went out of the city to ask for people.
At this time, You Youlun at the entrance of the yamen was assuring everyone that if it was an ordinary capital city, Zhizhou would basically be able to speak, but Wuchang was the provincial capital, and Zhizhou's words would have no weight.
At this time, the people's attention was on You Youlun, and they did not find Du Yinxi and his party, but he was dressed in a scarlet robe, a jade belt, and a brocade chicken, and there was a group of generals behind him.
Chen Youlong and the others immediately stepped forward, protected Du Yinxi behind them, and shouted loudly: "Lord Nanfu, don't be rude, if you have anything to say, send a few respected squires into the mansion to talk in detail." ”
"Nanfu? It's the blocking platform that is coming! There was an exclamation from the crowd, he was a scholar, and he might have fame. He is in his thirties and has a dignified appearance.
There was a commotion in the crowd, the prestige of Plug Yinxi in Huguang is very high, Hubei was broken by the war, a large number of refugees are Plug Yinxi resettled, in addition, Hubei has always eaten Hunan's grain, and the people are naturally very grateful to him.
"Lord Futai, Wuchang can't be lost!" At this time, the scholar stood in the crowd and saluted, crying. The surrounding crowd also echoed, "Please Futai to save the Chu people", and knelt down in an instant.
Seeing this, Du Yinxi was moved, and said loudly: "This official, although he is Nanfu, is willing to live and die with Wuchang." You can rest assured, this official has sent troops to Sanjiangkou to delay the Qing army, and later Inspector He will also return to Wuchang, our officials and people are united to protect Wuchang! ”
