Just when Shi Liang was thinking about 'beautiful things', hundreds of miles away in the north of Hanyang Mansion and at the southern end of Dawu County, Ah Gui, who was only with a part of the pro-army and a group of staff, was also eating a simple dinner. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

He did not go south to Xiaogan with the army. Because the army that came out of Henan was only a simple army of more than 20,000 people, not a complete army, and Ah Gui, who stayed behind, racked his brains to raise money and food for the army, so he was still more than 100 miles away from the front line. In the early years, he returned to Xinjiang from the Dingbian general Zhaohui, broke Huo Jizhan, fought against Yaerqiang, promoted to the cabinet bachelor, moved to the warehouse field squire, and gave the cloud cavalry captain the post. Later into the Imperial Academy. Then there is Shaanxi Admiral Ma Quan Sasuke, although the former Shaanxi Admiral Wang Tenglong has been exempted from capital crimes, but he has only climbed to the fourth rank of the capital division until now, which is still far from the original Admiral from the first rank.

Aligon's letter for help was also sent from Wuchang to Ah Gui's desk, and the Fu Han army only used artillery bombardment during the day and raids at night. It's just that the thief army in Henan is different from the Qing army, they all wear iron armor and rattan iron armor, and they are not afraid of hand-to-hand combat with the Qing army at all. Now the situation is turning, and Aligon is using the tricks of the Fu Han army to defend the old nest of Henan to defend against the attack of the Fu Han army on Wuchang, and the attacking Fu Han army is using the tricks of the original Ali Gon to deal with the Qing army.

It's a very interesting scene, but it's the Qing army that is tragic.

The original Qing army could not gnaw at the positions garrisoned by the Fu Han army at night, and the current Qing army could not stop the attack of the Fu Han army at night. Ah Gui hadn't slept well for the past two nights, and he was thinking about this problem without free time in his mind, which was simply unsolvable.

With the current firearms, muskets are almost useless at night, and spears and broadswords are still reliable in night battles. And the sword and gun fight depends on the courage and equipment of the soldiers, and it is difficult for the Qing army to have an advantage in both of these two areas. Could it be that Emperor Shangshu pulled the soldiers of the Eight Banners in the Jianrui Battalion and the Fengtai Battalion to the battlefield? They wore cotton armor, which to a certain extent offset the advantage of the armor of the Fu Han army, but how many banner soldiers were there? How many Han people are there? Besides, where are the current flag soldiers still as brave as they were back then? If you really run out of elites, I'm afraid the situation will be even worse.

And in this night battle, the Qing army's very dominant horse team was almost useless. Taking Phoenix Mountain in Wuchang as an example, the battlefield is full of ditches and potholes, which is not a place for horse teams at all. Ah Gui racked his brains, and it was difficult to think of any way to block such an offensive of the Fu Han army......

As for the Henan army, the Sichuan army, and the people and horses of Hunan, that is, the current battle situation, Ah Gui still has a certain hope. If the armies from all walks of life can really rush to their positions quickly, all in place, and contain the Fu Han army attacking Wuchang from the north, west, and south, and the defenders in Wuchang City can muster up blood and courage to fight the attacking Fu Han army to the end, maybe the Fu Han army will really be in vain.

Ah Gui estimated the military strength of the Fu Han army, Chen Ming put people in the south of the Yangtze River, Anqing and Jiujiang also added a lot of people, as well as Huangzhou Mansion, the Fu Han army fully occupied the Huangzhou Mansion, and even the Luo Tian and Jute in the ravines and ravines, and the troops of the Fu Han army were killed. After Wang Wenxi, the prefect of Huangzhou, fell to Luotian, he disappeared. Ah Gui knew what Wang Wenxi was doing, that is, he absconded.

Now there are more and more officials in the Qing Dynasty who are greedy for life and afraid of death. Thinking that the officials in Henan have given birth to a giant like the Chen family under their rule, they must be incompetent. But even those incompetent magistrates, after the Chen family raised troops, also died one after another, but they also lined Ah Gui's appetite more than Wang Wenxi's generation.

Gui didn't even know when she fell asleep. only knew that it was hazy, and he seemed to be carried to the bed, and he continued to sleep. Knowing that a few terrible screams came, in the dead of night, the screams that pierced the night made people feel creepy.

Gui opened her eyes suddenly.

The pro-soldiers had already mounted their horses, and the few horsemen on duty at night galloped in the direction from which the screams came under the beckoning of a small number of horse armor soldiers.

When Gui got dressed and walked out of the tent, he saw the northeast of his camp, and Gui remembered that there was a small village there, and when he was camping, some of the guards proposed to buy some meat from that village, but Gui stopped him. Now the dark village suddenly boiled, the shouts shook the sky, the screams were endless, and gradually the light of the fire was lit, which was that a house had been set on fire.

Ah Gui quietly looked at this village in the distance.

At about tea time, several pro-soldiers who went to investigate rushed back and rolled down in front of Aguima to report: "Yuzhongtang, there are mobs attacking and plundering Zhuangzi, killing people and setting fires. ”

"How many mobs are there?" Gui frowned slightly. He didn't mean that this place couldn't be the Fu Han army, and the Fu Han army wouldn't loot the villages.

"About a hundred and ten people." The pro-army replied.

Ah Gui groaned slightly, waved his hand, and said, "Go and scatter them, but don't chase them." "One hundred and ten mobs are not worth mentioning, even if there are five or ten times more, the three or four hundred pro-army around Ah Gui can also calm them without hindrance. What makes Ah Gui melancholy is the world of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and it has only been less than two years, and the people have already shown a chaotic scene.

Mob, mob......

Several Eight Banner officers beside Ah Gui glanced at each other, and one of them retreated with his fists clenched, and took fifty or sixty horsemen like sharp arrows to the village where the firelight had already dyed half of the black curtain at this time.

After a meal, under the slight moonlight, several pro-soldiers who had just left led a group of people to the front of the Agui camp, and in the dark night, there were many shadows, a group of people were men, women, old and young, screaming, shouting and scolding, mixed together.

An officer of the Eight Banners was guarding Ah Gui's side, and at this moment he rode his horse to meet him, shouting loudly: "Come quietly, dare not obey orders, and kill them!" The murderous words immediately quieted the crowd, and even if some people couldn't control their crying, they forcibly lowered their voices.

"Lord Zhongtang, this group of people was met outside the Zhuangzi by the small ones. I wanted them to wait on the side, but these people knew that Lord Zhongtang was here, so they had to come and kowtow. ”

This is a group of fleeing people, if it weren't for the good luck of being bumped into by Agui's pro-army, it would be a group of lost dogs. There were twenty or thirty men and women, all of them with panicked expressions on their faces, some of them limping, and some of them seemed to be injured and had blood on their bodies.

But the eyes that looked at all the Eight Banners soldiers in the camp were full of endless gratitude.

The thin man at the head was the landlord of the village, surnamed Huang, and most of the men and women around him were his family, neighbors, and slaves.

The young man behind the yellow landlord was carrying his father, who was the son of the yellow landlord, and now he was out of breath.

A few torches were lit, and Ah Gui walked out in official robes, splitting the pro-soldiers surrounded by this group of people like waves. Everyone knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Gui from afar. "Thank you, thank you, thank you, ......

The yellow landlord was a little bolder, and knelt down and moved twice, "I beg the big man to leave his name, so that the people can know who the big master is." This life-saving grace is recreated. I'll wait for the **** to eat fasting and chant Buddha in the future, and pray for the blessing of the eldest lord......"

Ah Gui smiled, Qingqing waved his hand, "You come up." Compared with the commemoration of the common people, Ah Gui is now more concerned about the origin of the rioters and mobs. Isn't that a lot of things here......

An officer beside Ah Gui saw Ah Gui beckoning, and then said to the Huang landlord: "You go over, Lord Zhongtang has something to ask you." Then he waited for the rest of the people, "You are all waiting here." ”

The already burly figure is even taller with a lightning rod, the face is murderous under the torch, and the voice is cold, the group below is at most the owner of a small land in the countryside, who dares to move?

"Grass people Huang Baihe, I've seen Lord Zhongtang." Huang Baihe still has some knowledge, when he heard the word 'Zhongtang', his eyes were about to protrude, and when he arrived in front of Ah Gui, he knelt down and kowtowed respectfully. This is a much higher official than the county magistrate who they have realized.

"Why was your Zhuangzi robbed? Where did the mob come from? Gui asked puzzled.

Huang Baihe cried with a sad face: "The kid knows that those people will rebel sooner or later." Jia Liujin, who is the leader, as well as Gao Er and Ma Tieshan, are all ruffians in the surrounding villages. I heard the day before yesterday that they cut off the heads of chickens and burned yellow paper, drank blood wine, and sent someone to report to the county master, but the county has not taken it seriously. Who would have thought that they would kill tonight......"

Ah Gui breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that he was just a ruffian in the countryside, and even if such people broke the Zhuangzi, they would just loot, and they would disperse in all directions, and they would not cause a big disaster. Although such an incident also shows the turmoil of the Qing Dynasty and the opposition to a certain extent, it is finally a great luck in misfortune.

As he was talking, the sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and one of the guards rolled off his horse and said loudly: "Yu Zhongtang, the mob has been dispersed, and more than twenty and one leader have been arrested." ”

Huang Baihe's face immediately turned red, his eyes flashed with bitter hatred, he got up and wanted to run, but after taking two steps, he knelt down with a puff, and kowtowed to Ah Gui vigorously: "Ask Lord Zhongtang to be the master, ask Lord Zhongtang to be the master......"

Ah Gui said without a half-point look on his face: "Bring the person who is the leader up, and the rest will be executed on the spot." ”

The sound of horses' hooves in the distance was the return of the previous group of vest soldiers. There was a person on the saddle of the led officer, and he ran to Ah Gui, and with a lift of his hand, the man rolled to the ground, and he snorted in pain, and his face happened to be eye-to-eye with Huang Baihe.

"Lord Zhongtang, this person is the thief leader Jia Liujin...... "That is really turned into ashes, and Huang Baihe also recognizes it."

Ah Gui sighed softly in his heart, looking at Jia Liujin, who was scared in front of him, and discarded his subordinates with one color, and immediately a pro-army mentioned Jia Liujin and dragged him away, and a terrible scream was Jia Liujin's last voice left in this world. Is he really just an ordinary ruffian, and he has a lot of courage? I'm scared in front of myself. If it weren't for Chen Wei's turbulent society, this kind of person would be a local gangster all his life, bullying a weak person in the countryside, where he dared to gang up to kill people and rob villages?

It's all that damn Chen Rebellious. Let the imperial court work hard to maintain the country, decades of peace and prosperity, all ruined! (To be continued.) )
