Chapter Thirty-Seven: Turning to Shucheng

"My lord is wise, don't look at me Hu Yongxiang usually loves to fight, but the people I am most convinced of besides you are Yuan Heizi and Old Man Lu! They are far above me! I thought Hu Yongxiang was unconvinced, but I didn't expect him to be a sincere person.

Among the camps, only Hu Yongxiang's record can be compared with Lu Yaoling, and seeing that he also expressed his position like this, everyone was also convinced.

"The blind man has nothing to say about fighting, but don't be proud, I think there are many people in the army who are better than you, and that Wang Haiyang is also very good!" Yuan Hongmo said.

"Him!" Hu Yongxiang thought about it, scratched his head, and said, "He is also a good man!" ”

"Dashun, you go to the blind man tomorrow to be a pawn commander and have some experience!" Wang Jingyuan thought about it, and he could still be a famous general in actual combat, so he said to Peng Da.

"Obedience!"

"You can't eat yet! I've been talking about military affairs! Jiang Wan saw that Wang Jingyuan's dinner table was endless, and pouted.

"Okay, Xianda will fill it up for him!" Wang Jingyuan admits defeat.

"This name is not good" Long Fengfei, an old talent, studied Ding Xianda's name and said, "'Xianda'? Don't you hear that 'from the hometown to the first to hold the scriptures and ask', often referring to the seniors, your name is not humble enough! ”

Faced with the old pedant's fault, Ding Xianda said respectfully: "Sir, this name was given by my father, my father is a farmer and thinks I will develop in the future, so he started this, or Mr. will change it for me?" ”

"Change?" Long Fengwei didn't expect this kid to be so calm.

"You'll change it for him!" Yuan Hongmo is also making foolish noise.

"Let me think about it, not only to follow your father's beautiful vision, but also to listen to it! What do you think of 'Ruchang'? ”

"Ding Ruchang?" Wang Jingyuan didn't swallow a sip of wine, and squirted out, but he didn't expect Ding Xianda to be Ding Ruchang.

"Sir, my lord, I will be called Ding Ruchang in the future!" Ding Xianda became Ding Ruchang.

Admiral Ding Ruchang of the Qing Dynasty? Wang Jingyuan repeatedly looked at this young man who was still named Ding Xianda just now. In the Sino-Japanese First Sino-Japanese Naval Battle, Ding Ruchang ran out of ammunition and food, died in his country, and the whole army was annihilated. Although he was loyal to the country, he was born as a cavalry general, and he was not familiar with water warfare, and it was in vain to reluctantly become a naval commander.

After the right Eighth Army conquered Lujiang, the flank of the Qing army in Shucheng was completely exposed, and Xu Hong, the magistrate of Lujiang County, who had the responsibility of defending the territory, had to bring troops back to help, and the local regimental training of Lujiang County, Hu Zuqian, Wu Tingxiang and other troops also left the battlefield of Beikip Pass one after another, guarding the township. For a time, the morale of the Qing army in Beikip Guan plummeted, and Hu Yihuang seized this opportunity and ordered all units to take turns to attack.

On October 28, Hu Yihuang defeated the Qing army, killed Zhu Linqi, the head of the criminal department, and Hengxing, the chief soldier of Hanzhong Town, fled north, and the Taiping army broke through the defense line of Beikip Pass, pointing directly at Shucheng County, where Lu Xianji, the chief general of the Qing army, was stationed in the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Engineering and Lu Xianji, the left Shilang of the Criminal Department. Lu Xianji begged for help from all sides, and fortunately, Li Hongzhang, who led the troops from Chaohu, returned to Hefei to discuss with his father Li Wen'an, and collected more than 1,000 troops from Hefei Dongxiang to help.

After Hu Yihuang crossed the North Kip Pass, he immediately sent his henchman Liu Shengcai, the general commander of Jinqi, to lead the army to defend the Lujiang River, and transferred Wang Jingyuan to lead the troops to attack the important town of Sanhe, an important town in Shucheng, in order to prevent the enemy from the direction of Luzhou.

Wang Jingyuan was very reluctant to hand over Lujiang City to Liu Shengcai, but he knew that Hu Yihuang was eager to get a foothold, Luzhou was the place where he made a name for himself, and the nearby states and counties were his forbidden places!

On the night of the fifth day of November, Wang Jingyuan led his army to raid Sanhe Town and quickly seized various important places in the northern boundary of the town. The next day, Hu Yihuang and Zeng Tianyang besieged Shucheng, and the Qing army Lu Xianji was terrified and closed the city without fighting.

Shucheng was besieged, and many officials and wealthy businessmen escaped in advance and flocked to Sanhe to prepare to flee to Hefei. After Wang Jingyuan attacked Sanhe at night, he occupied a landlord's compound and blocked the entire town, but asked Wang Haiyang to guard the avenue and pretend to be a Qing army, come to catch one by one, but seized a lot of gold and silver. In the afternoon of the same day, Wang Haiyang came back with a sack, and nervously invited Wang Jingyuan to the backyard alone, saying that he wanted the chief master to personally inspect it. As soon as Wang Jingyuan untied the sack, he didn't expect that it was a beautiful woman inside, and then he became angry, roaring wildly, and scolded Wang Haiyang to the point of blood.

Wang Jingyuan has always been strict in administering the army, and the abduction of women is the business of bandits, and he will never allow his subordinates to bring the habits of bandits to the Eighth Army, especially Wang Haiyang. This unruly guy later dared to kill his boss Li Shixian, Huo and his subordinates. With the expansion of the troops, Wang Haiyang, Cheng Xueqi, and Ding Ruchang met unexpectedly, and they were able to fight but also had many bad deeds. Wang Jingyuan could not condone them to do whatever they wanted, stifled their murderous nature, and maximized their talents on the basis of being able to control them, otherwise they would eventually be attacked by them.

After Wang Haiyang was scolded wildly, he had to send the woman back. This woman fled to Sanhe with her family today, and unfortunately met Wang Haiyang, a reckless man. Wang Haiyang, who was born as a bandit, was accustomed to robbing homes and abducting women in the Dingyuan Mountains. This is not to detain this young woman on the road, thinking that the chief master is a man, and there will always be this need, which may hinder the precept of abstinence in heaven, but he, as a subordinate, always has to share the burden from above, so he took it upon himself to give them to Wang Jingyuan. Unexpectedly, he was scolded by Wang Jingyuan and was almost dealt with by military law, at this time, Wang Haiyang couldn't wait to get rid of this woman as soon as possible.

However, to Wang Haiyang's surprise, the woman's father, a stubborn private school teacher, shouted and screamed when he snatched his daughter, stalking him, and finally had to knock him unconscious. Now when he sent his daughter back, he asked to see Wang Jingyuan, saying that he wanted to seek justice in person. This can make Wang Haiyang depressed, adults don't want your daughter anymore, don't go back to steal fun by yourself, what kind of justice do you want, this is not self-seeking and unpleasant. Wang Hailin came up with an idea to beat up this stubborn old man, but he was stopped by his brother, and he was scolded for making a mistake just now, so wouldn't he really be subject to military law if he does it again? Wang Haiyang accepted his fate, and led Mr. Private School to see Wang Jingyuan and wait for disposal.

The old gentleman's name is Gao Chongshan, he is a famous talent in Shucheng, he has a lot of land, and he has three daughters under his knees. This is not Hu Yihuang's army broke through the Bei Kip Pass into the siege of Shu City, Gao Chongshan's family escaped before the siege, I wanted to hide in Chaoxian County for a while, but I didn't think that it was intercepted before it reached Sanhe, and a group of Taiping troops seized the silver and two not to mention, and the sixteen-year-old eldest daughter Gao Rong was also robbed. Gao Laoxiu was powerless, he couldn't grab it, he couldn't beat it, and when he was howling, his daughter was sent back. But you can't send it back! With Lao Gao's temper, he has to fight to the death with this group of people.

After entering the town, Gao Chongshan realized that something was wrong, the people walking on the street were wearing yellow robes and long hair shawls, this is the legendary long hair? Lao Gao muttered in his heart, but he is not the one to retreat!

"Wang Jingyuan, the Jinba General System of the Lower Taiping Army, I don't know Mr. Gao's name?" Wang Jingyuan cordially received the old man who had come to complain in the main hall.

"The contemptible Shucheng is noble and good, and it is the contemptible daughter that the general has taken away!"

Everyone was shocked, and they all looked at Wang Jingyuan, especially Jiang Wan, with straight eyes.

"Misunderstanding! Pure misunderstanding! Wang Jingyuan tried his best to explain: "I won't give it back to you, Wang Haiyang!" Didn't you send it back? ”

"Send it back, send it back early! This old gentleman insists on coming, and he can't hold it! ”

"It's the contemptible people themselves who want to come, your army has been called the teacher of benevolence and righteousness for a long time, is it also benevolent and righteous to kidnap wives and daughters! Now that the name of the contemptible daughter has been damaged, the general will see what to do! ”

"What should I do?" Wang Jingyuan was depressed, didn't he touch his daughter yet, why should he be in charge? Gao Chongshan, Shucheng people are high and good! This is not Ye Yunlai's father-in-law! Ye Yun married his eldest daughter when he came to Shoushucheng, and later married his sister-in-law to Cheng Xueqi! Could it be that you still have to go to Ye Yun?

"Otherwise, you will marry his daughter!" Jiang Wan was angry.

"Nonsense, the kingdom of heaven prohibits marrying wives!"

"Not allowed to take a wife? It's not against humanity! "Exalted and good.

Hearing this, Wang Jingyuan was puzzled and said, "Hey, I said that old man, do you really want to marry your daughter to me?" ”

"This? Your home is hairy with you...... No, the Taiping Army is broken, my big family is gone, it doesn't hurt to marry my daughter to you, besides, the world is undecided, the general is young and the dragon and phoenix among the people, it shouldn't be insulting the little girl! ”

Could it be that Gao Chongshan married his daughter to Ye Yun in this way? This is not a bet on the daughter, opportunistic! No way! can't give his entire father-in-law for no reason, besides, Jiang Wan ......

Long Fengbi saw that Wang Jingyuan wanted to refuse, so he hurriedly pulled him and said, "My lord, take a step to speak!" ”

Wang Jingyuan followed him to the side, only to hear Long Fengwei say: "I have heard that Gao Chongshan has read poetry and books for a long time, and I have heard that in the township, why don't you allow him to be accepted first, and then marry him when the ban is lifted in heaven!" ”

"If you take it for your own use, you can't marry her daughter!" Besides, you don't know that Wan'er and I ......."

"Then your lord, you look at it, talent is rare!"

"Let me think about ......"

Jiang Wan stared at Wang Jingyuan closely, although the two of them had already promised each other in their hearts, but these three wives and four concubines were not nothing, and now they could only hate this Gao Chongshan, and their daughters could be promised to others at will, they were really not a good father!

"This ...... This, how does Mr. Gao think of my subordinate? Wang Jingyuan pointed to Wang Haidao.

"Although this lord is reckless, he is strong and strong, and he is a good general!"

"Okay, how about him being your son-in-law, he is my most important brigade commander!"

"My lord, how can I?" Wang Haiyang couldn't believe it.

"Why not, if you have taken people captive, you have to marry them! In a year or two, the kingdom of heaven will lift the ban and they will get married, and this matter is decided! "Wang Jingyuan is serious and authentic.

"What level is he, not as high as your status!" Gao Chongshan seemed reluctant.

"Wang Haiyang is my cronies, a very important member of the tiger general, and he is currently the brigade commander! In our army, the brigade commander can also be regarded as a middle and high-level general. ”

"He's a mid-level general? No, the contemptible man also has two daughters, can the general accept ......?"
