Chapter 58: Bandit General Zheng Kuo
Jia Rudao looked at the wailing square, and then looked at the three easily recognizable gilded characters of "Lin'an Mansion" on the high door, and finally affirmed that the place in front of him was indeed the Lin'an Mansion.
Since this is the Lin'an Mansion Office, there is no doubt that those who are chased and beaten by the soldiers in front of the palace in their official robes are all officials under the Lin'an Mansion.
Didn't the palace division and the Lin'an Mansion cooperate to arrest the assassins? So which one did you see in front of the palace soldiers beating up the officials of Lin'an Mansion?
After this trouble, is it possible for the two governments to continue to cooperate?
There are a lot of officials in and out of Lin'an Mansion, and Zheng Kuo obviously can't include everyone in the scope of the attack, but they just target the little officials who just blocked and arrested Xu Ru.
As for the onlookers, seeing that their colleagues were chased by the soldiers in front of the palace, they almost had no way to go to the sky and no way to enter the ground, and they all scattered one after another, fearing that they would harm the pond fish.
Zheng Kuo is a well-known thug, and when he encounters such a madman, if he doesn't take the initiative to find trouble, he will already make these little officials eager to burn high incense and thank their ancestors for blessing, how dare they step forward to stop it.
At the moment when everyone was running around with oil on the soles of their feet, Jia Nidao, who had just gotten off the sedan chair and watched for a while and had not moved his steps, was extremely prominent.
Zheng Kuo, who was originally arrogant and smiling, turned around and saw Jia Rudao with his hands on his face.
This kid, watching a play? These people are juggling for this kid to see.
Looking at Jia Rudao, who was standing firmly in place with his hands behind his back, a nameless fire rose in Zheng Kuo's heart for no reason.
"Humph!" Zheng Kuobao's eyes were full of fierce light, and he raised his feet and strode towards Jia Rudao.
The officials who had originally scattered and fled saw that Zheng Kuo finally had a new goal, and they all breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts. However, after seeing the people clearly, the faces of some Lin'an officials showed a look of schadenfreude with expectation.
That "bandit general" Zheng Kuo doesn't seem to know the master.
Zheng Kuo's nickname of "bandit general" is not a secret in Lin'an City, and even Zheng Kuo himself knows it. But he is not ashamed, but proud.
The bandit general doesn't know him, but there are still people in Lin'an Mansion who know Jia Yidao.
There's a good show to watch!
"General, General!"
It's a pity that just after taking a step, Zheng Kuo was stopped by a personal soldier beside him.
"Huh?" Zheng Kuo snorted, and looked back impatiently at the pro-soldier who was pulling his sleeve.
"General, the book...... Kid is not easy to mess with! ”
Although the pro-soldier was trembling with his legs trembling by Zheng Kuo's snort, he still dutifully reminded softly.
"What? Do you know him? Zheng Kuo frowned, and pointed at Jia Rudao with a grin.
"No, no, the little ones don't know him. The general looked at the four soldiers behind the boy. Naturally, the soldiers didn't dare to point at Jia Nidao like Zheng Kuo, but pointed at Jia Nidao behind him.
Zheng Kuo is extremely dissatisfied with the behavior of his own soldiers, what he annoys the most is to use his brain, but his favorite thing is to use his fists to solve problems. However, he still patiently glanced behind Jia Yidao, he knew that it was absolutely impossible or dare not play with his own soldiers.
"That's ...... The inner sanctum is straight? ”
Zheng Kuo's eyes were extremely good, and he looked at it for a while, and said in disbelief.
"The general is really clever! Little admiration! The soldiers naturally knew what the lord they were waiting for liked to listen to the most, and hurriedly bowed their waists and sent a loud ass with a face of worship.
Sure enough, when Zheng Kuo heard the flattery of his own soldiers, a flash of color flashed on his face.
"What's that kid's coming from?"
As the deputy commander of the front division of the palace, although Zheng Kuo's head has always been not very good, he knows very well what the value of the inner temple is. Because the inner sanctum had been under the jurisdiction of the temple chief for several years.
The front division of the palace and the division of the guard horse army and the guard infantry division are in charge of the forbidden army, collectively known as the three ya, and the commanders of the front classes and the infantry and cavalry in front of the palace, and are in charge of its control, training, taking turns to defend the emperor, guarding, moving, punishing and rewarding and other government decrees.
And Zhubanzhi is actually a collective term for Zhuban and Zhuzhi.
The classes are: the commander in front of the palace, the inner hall straight, the scattered members, the scattered commanders, the scattered heads, the scattered waiting, the golden gun class, the east and west classes, the arrow class, the scattered straight, the Jun Rongzhi and so on. Zhuzhi has: Royal Dragon Straight, Royal Dragon Bone Duozi Straight, Royal Dragon Bow and Arrow Straight, Royal Dragon Crossbow Straight, etc. Each class is collectively called Zhubanzhi, which is under the control of the front division of the palace and is responsible for the garrison around the emperor.
Banzhi's status in the forbidden army far exceeds that of other arms. Generally, it is played by people who are "excellent in martial arts". In addition to being the emperor's guard, he sometimes participated in battles, and some also served as honor guards, such as Jun Rongzhi, which was actually a royal band. In the various periods of Jianlong, Xining and the Southern Song Dynasty, although the quota of Banzhi has changed, it has always been the closest forbidden army to the emperor.
Of course, all classes are under the control of the front division of the palace, and that was a few years ago.
With Zhao Yun splitting the hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops of the Sixteenth Road to which the Sanya belonged to establish the Imperial Front Army, and the Zhubanzhi, who had been used as the emperor's guard, how could Zhao Yun rest assured that he would be handed over to the palace front division controlled by the royal family who was not very good with him?
After the defeat of the troops in Luo three years ago, before Zhao Yun abolished the Sanya Forbidden Army with low combat effectiveness, the first to dismiss and transfer was the guards of the Zhuban Forbidden Army under the command of the front division of the palace.
Now these squads and guards are under the direct jurisdiction of the emperor, and they must be transferred by Zhao Yun's oral or hand edicts. Since it is directly controlled by the emperor, the status of the direct forbidden army of all classes is naturally rising, and the salary and treatment they enjoy are much higher than the Imperial Front Nine Road Army formed by Zhao Yun, as for the Sanya Forbidden Army that has been abandoned by Zhao Yun, it is not to mention.
And the inner temple is the closest to the emperor among the forbidden army classes. Because from the name, it is known that they are all guards who are responsible for the guard and garrison of the emperor's inner hall, that is, the guards around Zhao Yun.
At this moment, the emperor's guard wearing the armor of the inner temple of the forbidden army appeared behind the kid who was watching the play, and he was obviously still guarding the kid, even if he was the deputy commander of the front of the palace, but in the face of Jia Nidao, who was guarded by the direct forbidden army in the inner hall, Zheng Kuo knew that he had to think twice.
How could he be a nobody, who could let the guards around the emperor come to escort him.
The front division of the palace was already unlucky enough, and this time he deliberately pinched the little officials of Lin'an Mansion, just to make Lin'an Mansion more interesting when he was arrested later, and not to take credit from the front division of the palace, oh, it's oil and water.
I think Yu Tianxi also understands the truth of "Xiucai meets soldiers, and it is unreasonable", isn't it?
Zheng Kuo is not worried that this matter will be stabbed to Zhao Yun, and the only thing that can be used in the city is the three-way forbidden army of the palace front division, unless Zhao Yun really makes up his mind to transfer the two armies of the imperial front army that blocked the main roads outside into the city, otherwise the only one who can rely on is the palace front division.
However, the entry of the imperial army into the city will inevitably make the people of Lin'an City, who are already panicked, fluctuate, after all, the imperial army is the most stubborn garrison army in Lin'an City.
Although the reason for Meng Hui's assassination has not yet been ascertained, in the eyes of many people in the DPRK and China, there must be a shadow of the Mongols behind it. If the Imperial Front Army, which garrisoned the North Lin'an City Road, was transferred into the city, then there would be a huge gap between Lin'an City and the Jinghu Theater.
Meng Hui originally secretly returned to Beijing, but he was still assassinated, so obviously the news that he was not sitting on the front line in Huangzhou has naturally been grasped by some people, especially the Mongols, once the Mongols suddenly invaded the south at this time, if the Jinghu defense line was broken a little, the two imperial front troops that existed as a reserve were transferred to Lin'an City, and they could not catch up with the battle line in time to plug the gap, and the consequences at that time were probably not borne by anyone.
From Huangzhou to Lin'an City, if there is no defense of the Imperial Army, although there is a lot of water in the south of the Yangtze River, the speed of the Mongolian iron cavalry has been weakened somewhat, but even so, I am afraid that it will still take less than three days for the Mongols to drive all the way to Lin'an City.
Zhao Yun saw this very clearly, and the Manchu civil and military forces of the Great Song Dynasty also knew it.
This is also for what, obviously this time Zhao Yun can take advantage of Meng Heng's assassination to take down the former commander of Zhao Qidian, but after all, it is just the reason why he gently put it down after mentioning the most.
The Imperial Front Army can block the transportation arteries around Lin'an City, but it must not be easily mobilized back to Lin'an City. In addition, the transfer of the army, the amount of money and food spent is even more astronomical, which is too much pressure on the already not very abundant treasury.
It was precisely because Zhao Qi knew that he had left his palace front division, and Zhao Yun had no way to find the assassin in Lin'an City, which had more than a million dollars, so he would have the heart to take this opportunity to make a profit. Although the front division of the palace is not as big as before, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, not to mention that since the existence of the front division of the palace, he has been responsible for the daily defense of Lin'an City, and no one knows the situation in Lin'an City better than them.
The top is interesting, and the people below are naturally happy. On the contrary, what the real purpose is, but it has long been forgotten by the people below.
"What's that kid all about? Do you know? Zheng Kuo frowned, feeling a little unwilling in his heart.
So many people are watching, especially the officials of Lin'an Mansion around them. From their eyes, Zheng Kuo knew that many people were watching what they would do, and if they were cowardly at this time, it would be a bit embarrassing to spread the rumors.
"This ...... General, the little one doesn't know. Seeing that Zheng Kuo was unwilling, the soldiers had the intention to dissuade him, but in the end they swallowed all the words back.
This pro-soldier knows very well that Zheng Kuo may not be fine if he provokes that scholar, but if he provokes Zheng Kuo now, then something will happen to him.
"Humph!" Zheng Kuo snorted, looked at Jia Rudao and looked at the officials of Lin'an Mansion who stopped and watched from afar, but his heart became more and more unhappy.
The eyes of those damn Lin'an officials looked like they were laughing at themselves.
Just when Zheng Kuo felt uncomfortable, he suddenly found that the hateful boy had moved, and he was walking in the direction of himself.
