Chapter 137: Red Lady?
Almighty Cultivation Supreme
When it comes to smelling incense, Fan Ruohai still looks jealous.
In the sixth year of Chongzhen, Lin Yilun, the leader of the Wenxiang Sect, launched a huge uprising in Anling Town, the capital of Wengzhou, Shandong.
Jiang Yi was at the mouth of Shuanghekou in Caozhou, Zhou Ba was in Cao County, Qiu Wei was in Anxingji, and Tang Xianglin was in Shanxian County.
I have to say that the Wenxiang Sect Leader Lin Yilun's abacus is very good.
Anling Town is located at the junction of Shandong and Henan, is the weak point of the military strength of the guard, Shanxian County to Anling Town near almost no imperial court big city and fort, are mostly county towns and villages, once a large-scale chaos occurs, it is difficult for the imperial court to send troops to suppress in a period of time.
Usually this place belongs to the three regardless, the people of Wengzhou Mansion in Shandong came to arrest them, and the prisoners ran to Henan, and the errand officers from Henan came and ran back to Wengzhou Mansion.
In such a situation, the officials of Wengzhou Mansion and Henan could only stare dryly, and there was nothing they could do.
Even if it is reported to the provincial government to cooperate, it must have the cooperation of the local health center, unless it is a messenger from the imperial court, the rest of the local officials are really unwilling to toss back and forth, thankless.
It took half a year for the uprising to be resolved, but almost all of the fish and shrimp were caught, and it would be nice to have a few incense owners.
At the moment, although the Wenxiang Sect is temporarily dormant and has not made any major moves except to preach its teachings and attract its followers, no one dares to guarantee that they will not suddenly emerge from other places and start an uprising again.
The Wenxiang Sect is actually a branch of the White Lotus Sect, the root system is hidden very deeply, the root system of the White Lotus Sect is developed, and it has not been completely eradicated in the Ming Dynasty.
There is only one small wharf in Qixian County, compared to the wharf outside Jining City, it is simply poor and dilapidated, after Wang Zheng's fleet docked on the shore, the entire wharf is almost invisible to other ships.
Followed by Xing Yidao and the Yanding team, they took the lead to go ashore, carefully looked around, and found no ambush, only then did a crew jump ashore and tie the cable to the stake.
Wang Zheng landed on the shore in turn with the four sentinels, Dong Youyin and the four sentinels hugged Wang Zheng tightly, looking around, their eyes were quite vigilant, and even Dong Youyin and Xing Yidao had already held their hands on the hilt of the knife on their waists.
To be honest, no one has figured out what the purpose is when they go ashore this time, and even if this small county town where birds don't is burned down, it has nothing to do with them.
But doubts are doubts, and no one asks without opening their eyes, the general has always done things in a measured manner, and things in the army are the same, anyway, this time it is impossible to go ashore to join in the fun.
For a long time, everyone has also been accustomed to following orders, and after going ashore, they are vigilantly watching their surroundings, and it doesn't look like it's very peaceful.
Xing Yidao took Yanding to guard the dock, Wang Zheng and Dong Youyin led the four sentinels to walk to the county seat, and slowly saw the banner on the county seat.
When I got closer, I saw that the city gate was wide open, and there was not even an official official to guard the gate.
There was no obstacle to entering the county, but Wang Zheng found that there were still quite a lot of people in this Qi County, which was completely different from the lifeless county towns that passed all the way.
Many people who were hungry and unclothed beggars squatted on the side of the road, looking at Wang Zheng and his party with surprised and puzzled eyes.
Fan Ruohai looked very afraid of the people around him, followed closely in the middle of Wen Dengbing, and said in a low voice:
"General, let's go back, these people can't be the mob of the Smelling Fragrance Cult."
Wang Zheng didn't have the slightest intention of going back, but after listening to Fan Ruohai's words, he also felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong, so he held his hand on the steel knife handed down by the family and asked:
"What, is it easy to join this Smelling Fragrance Sect?"
"At the beginning, they almost said that they would go in, and they would give you a lot of benefits to lure, but now there are more people who can't survive, and there are more sect members, and these cults are divided into three, six, nine and so on, and the lowest mob is the same as before, and they are willing to become cannon fodder after being bewitched."
Dong Youyin also raised interest, and asked in a loud voice: "What now?" ”
"If you want to completely make them believe in you, you still need an ancient method, a blood alliance, and some people say that you want to set up a name paper and hold a ceremony to initiate the church."
Speaking of this, Fan Ruohai shook his head:
"At that time, you won't be able to turn over, and let these cults tie you to his ship! If some of the things they assigned to you are done, your status in the sect will be higher and higher, but if you don't do it, they will report it to the government, and the government knows that it can't afford to provoke the Smelling Fragrance Sect, so they mostly turn a blind eye to accept this substitute for the dead ghost. ”
Walking on the street, he suddenly smelled a burning smell, and when a team officer looked closer, he almost didn't vomit on the spot, and he kept retching.
"Yes, yes... Vomit...! ”
In front of everyone's eyes was a charred person, already unrecognizable, his skin was covered with black coke, and there was a burst of meat fragrance.
As if he had been tied to firewood and burned alive, Wang Zheng squatted down and picked up a waist knife on the ground.
That's right, this is exactly the cross-handled knife used by the yamen officers, it seems that there are some problems here, so let's go to the yamen first and ask the local magistrates and officers.
Thinking of this, Wang Zheng's brows were tightly locked, and he suddenly pulled out his knife.
This is like an order, Dong Youyin also immediately pulled out the steel knife, the officers and captains of each sentry team all drew their knives, Wen Dengbing clenched his spear and stared around vigilantly.
"The dog officers and soldiers are coming, kill the officers and soldiers!"
Suddenly, I don't know what shouts came from nowhere, and I don't know if Wang Zheng heard it wrong, it actually seemed to come out of a woman's mouth.
However, Wang Zheng didn't have the heart to think about this anymore, this voice had not yet landed, and an unknown number of thieves had rushed out from around.
"Don't panic! Array! ”
"Tight Formation!!"
Wang Zheng shouted the order, and the officers of the various sentry officers followed the order, and in the blink of an eye, the soldiers of the Wendeng battalion skillfully formed a defensive formation, aiming the tips of their guns at these people who rushed out, and they did not move like a mountain.
At this time, Wang Zheng had the strength to look carefully, they looked like bandits in a certain place, all wrapped in black turbans, and the ones they held in their hands were not the same as ordinary rebels, they were all waist knives.
The bandits did not hesitate, thinking that this group of officers and soldiers, like the others, would scatter and flee if they rushed up, so they rushed according to the gun array.
However, this time it was a full four outposts and nearly 800 regular Wendeng battalion soldiers.
Not to mention that these bandits, whose number does not seem to be as large as Wendeng's soldiers, is that if there are two thousand, Wang Zheng is confident that he will win.
This kind of war Wen Dengbing has experienced too much in Ninghai, Ninghai Prefecture City is waiting for a formation, Wang Zheng used one hundred and ninety-five people to win nearly two thousand water thieves, even if these hundreds of thieves are holding a water waist knife, it is nothing to him.
Wang Zheng's composure and self-confidence greatly encouraged the soldiers, no one panicked, and the soldiers' eyes were full of determination.
The bandits who rushed up seemed to be facing such a tight iron hedgehog for the first time, and the shouts of the officers and soldiers of the dog suddenly turned into a miserable howl, and they were pierced into bloody hedgehogs, threw corpses on the ground, and fled in all directions.
"Wait!"
A big thief with a big axe, his face full of anger, and when he was about to command another charge, there was a coquettish shout from behind.
