Chapter 109: Secret Communication
At the end of the second day, Chen Ming's troops successfully arrived at Zhangjiazhuang, ten miles away from Gaomi City. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
This Zhangjiazhuang is located on the Wulong River, between two hills, which can accommodate Chen Ming's 4,000 men and horses, and the geographical location is also quite hidden and reliable.
Without waiting for the army to set up the camp, Chen Ming called Mao Yushan, who was sent by Zhang Er to be in charge of liaison.
"Dashanzi! You try to get in touch with Mr. Xu Qian's people. Tell him that our department will officially attack the city tomorrow, and let them cooperate when the time comes, and don't let the big fish escape! Chen commanded.
"Yes, Chief Chen. The subordinates immediately took a few brothers with them. Mao Yushan agreed, and immediately took his three brothers to Gaomi County.
At this time, Xu Fu had changed his name as "Xu Haidong" as agreed. He claimed to be the head of the industry who fled from Liaodong, and took a group of brothers to survive. It is said that when he heard that this incense sect was in trouble, he robbed some rich gentry of gold and silver materials and came to defect.
There were not many people brought to Gaomi County by Wu De and Xiao Zishan, and the total was only more than 200 people.
However, fortunately, among the more than 200 people, dozens of them are said to be heroes from the mountains, and they have some rules and regulations in fighting wars. Therefore, the Wenxiang Sect was able to smoothly attack the 100 military forts outside Gaomi County, and kill the 100 official exhibitions.
After this group of heroes infiltrated Gaomi City, they rushed into the county government in one go, killed Cheng Dong's family in Gaomi County, and finally completely controlled Gaomi County.
However, in the final analysis, Wu De and Xiao Zishan, the two big leaders of the Wenxiang Sect, did not have many people available in Gaomi City, and they were really afraid that the gentry and officials in the city would collude to rebel and rebel.
It wasn't until later, when Xu Haidong brought nearly 1,000 brothers to vote, that they finally had a reassurance.
This Xu Haidong not only brought people who could completely control Gaomi City, but also gave Wu De and Xiao Zishan a large sum of gold, silver, jewelry and antiques.
After discussing with the two, it was decided that Xu Haidong would raid all the gentry in Gaomi City first, and take the money, food and materials of these rich families as his own. At the same time, you can also kill these rich merchants and landlords, so that you can better control this "fiefdom".
Of course, it is also to let this Xu Haidong make some merits by the way, so as to repay Wen Dehe, the co-emperor of the "Wen Dynasty", and invite him to be crowned.
The "co-lord of the Great Emperor" Wen Desi was overjoyed after receiving the report from Wu De and Xiao Zishan, and immediately let people quickly pass the decree and named Xu Haidong as the great Sima and mighty general of the Wen Dynasty.
Just after the unitary hour of this day, Xu Fugang, Wu De, and Xiao Zishan returned to the camp after drinking, and the soldiers guarding the camp gate came to report: "Mr. Qian, someone from your hometown is here." Say it's your cousin! ”
"My cousin? Let them in! Xu Fu estimated that it might be the liaison staff from Fushan Bay who came, and immediately ordered Mao Yushan and the other three to come in.
"Big cousin! I'm a cousin from my hometown, and I have a message for you! Mao Yushan looked at Xu Fu and said calmly.
After Mao Yushan was trained by Zhang Erzhao, he has been working on the hidden front. He knew Xu Fu, who was a high-ranking officer in Fushan Bay, but Xu Fu didn't know him.
"You say it's my cousin, why don't I know you?" Xu Fu asked with a smile.
"My cousin laughed! We've seen it at a young age. It's just that when I grew up, I followed your uncle, who is my father, to the Wa Kingdom to look for immortal medicine. I haven't seen each other for seven or eight years, and it's not surprising that my eldest cousin doesn't recognize me. Mao Yushan also smiled.
"Oh, have you ever asked for the elixir?" Xu Fu asked again.
"Please, as long as the eldest cousin has a medicine, it can be used!" Mao Yushan replied.
"It's your own people!" Xu Fu said. The few soldiers on guard beside him immediately put away their swords and guns.
Because before leaving, Zhang Er had already made an agreement with the chiefs of various ministries to recognize only code words and not people. If the code is right, it is your own person.
"Mao Yushan of the Military Intelligence Department, I will contact you in the future on the order of Director Zhang!" Mao Yushan gave a military salute.
"Zhang Er is here? Which other chief officer came with you? Xu Fu asked.
"Report to Mr. Xu Qian, it's Lord Chen Ming!" Mao Yushan replied.
"Oh, it's this kid! Tell us about them! ”
"Chen Shoubei brought 4,000 men, only ten miles away from the county seat of Gaomi. Camp in Zhangjiazhuang by the Wulong River. Chen Garrison will officially attack the city tomorrow, and he will let your troops cooperate when they arrive, don't let the big fish escape! Mao Yushan Road.
"Good! You go back and report to Chen Shoubei immediately. When the army arrives tomorrow, I will open the west gate to answer, and our soldiers will tie red scarves around their necks. Those who didn't tie a red scarf and held a weapon were all taught by smelling incense. Xu Fu said after thinking about it.
Some time ago, when he attacked the house of a local tyrant and a bad gentleman in the countryside, he put up five or six red silk pieces that he had copied from his house, and waited for such a time to distinguish between friend and foe.
Well, now, it can finally come in handy!
"Okay! Mr. Xu Qian, we will go to the communication immediately. Mao Yushan gave Xu Fu a military salute.
Then, he turned back and instructed the two companions who came with him: "Mingjie, big bull! The two of you go back first, and report Mr. Xu Qian's arrangements to Chen Shoubei truthfully. Be safe on the road! ”
After the two of them followed one of Xu Fu's captains out, Mao Yushan said to Xu Fu again: "Mr. Xu Qian!" Lend me half a piece of red silk. There are still our people in Fushan Bay in this Gaomi City! I'll have to get in touch with them and get them to tie up their red scarves so they don't attack each other!" ”
"I said, how can this rabble of the Smelling Fragrance Sect capture a hundred military forts and occupy the county seat of Gaomi? It turns out that there are our people in it! It seems that this turmoil is completely under the control of adults! Yes! I'll give you half a piece of red silk! Xu Fu suddenly realized.
"Mr. Xu Qian! Please be cautious, there are some things that you just need to understand. If you talk too much, when will it lead to trouble. Mao Yushan reminded.
"I'm also talking about this in my own camp." Xu Fu's face flushed, and then a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes.
However, he quickly regained his calmness, walked to Mao Yushan's side with a smile on his face, and said, "Thank you Brother Shanzi for reminding him!" Xu will arrange the wine and food, and after you finish the wine and food, I will ask my brother to escort you to find someone. I said the wrong thing today, and I'm going to ask the adults for my guilt. ”
Xu Fu knew that he had said something that was very taboo against Wang Rui, and he thought about it for a moment, and he would kill this agent of the Military Intelligence Department.
However, he soon came to his senses. Since there are so many secret agents in Fushan Bay in the Wenxiang Sect, there must also be an eye line of the military intelligence department among the subordinate soldiers and officers in his own army.
Instead of taking risks for such an unobtrusive trivial matter and burying his future life, it is better to honestly ask Wang Rui to admit his guilt.
Xu Fu understands Wang Rui's character, if you really want to admit your mistake so frankly, Wang Rui may just make a joke and pass. But if you think about being clever, as you just did, you may soon be in trouble.
Lord Wang acted ruthlessly, and a high-level officer like Xu Fu had seen it a long time ago.
It's okay, it's just a thought! Xu Fu took advantage of the fact that people were not paying attention and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.
"Xu Qian always understands! However, this matter is also to be reported to Director Zhang. Mao Yushan said with a smile.
"Uh-huh! Then bother the Shanzi brothers! However, it's best to report it directly to the Shogun! Xu Fu smiled and spoke, while holding Mao Yushan's hand, and put a gold ingot into Mao Yushan's palm.
Mao Yushan's hand sank, knowing that it was a gold ingot weighing about five taels.
He accepted it casually and said with a smile: "My subordinates obey orders!" ”
