Chapter 589: On the banks of the Songjiang River, the Quartet moves
Chapter 589 Songjiang Bank, Quartet Moves
Ma Binlun had a voice in his heart that kept telling him, what Zhao Yougong said was true, if His Royal Highness wanted to take him Ma Binlun in order to seize the military power in Jiangnan, it would make sense, but what about Fu Zhao, is it necessary for His Royal Highness the dignified King Qin to waste time on Fu Zhao? can pay Zhao to kill the good and take the risk, how can this kind of thing be believed? But there are some things that have to be believed, because His Highness said that the three hundred heads are still in the county office. MC Mobile Network
Killing good and risking merit is not unfamiliar to generals, because doing so is tantamount to losing all conscience, and livestock is inferior. Fu Zhao, who has tried his best to promote and entrust him with important tasks over the years, actually killed Liang and risked his merits, for a while, Ma Binlun sat paralyzed on the ground, he felt that no amount of explanation was useless, if Fu Zhao's killing of Liang and his merits was true, then it would be forgivable for His Highness to cut him with a thousand knives.
"General Ma, do you have anything else to say?"
"Your Highness, the last general really doesn't know, Fu Zhao him" Before he finished speaking, Ma Binlun closed his mouth in a daze, he felt like a fool. Fu Zhao did so many things, but as the main general, he didn't know it, not to mention that His Royal Highness King Qin didn't believe it, and even he couldn't convince himself. Ma Binlun stopped, but Liang Fangluo said loudly, "Your Highness, General Ma must have been framed, you can't fall for someone else's evil!" β
"Wronged? Come on, escort Fu Zhao up! With an order, Tang Miao brought Fu Zhao, who was waiting outside, into the tent, and as soon as Fu Zhao entered the big tent, he glanced at Ma Binlun, and then lowered his head in shame. As soon as Ma Binlun saw Fu Zhao, he didn't know where the strength came from, so he struggled and wanted to pounce on Fu Zhao, "Dog thief, Ma Mou trusts you so much, why do you want to harm Mou like this." β
Listening to Ma Binlun's scolding, Fu Zhao's face was even more guilty. He fell to his knees. Stiffening his neck, he said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, all the previous things were done by the villain alone, and they have nothing to do with General Ma. β
Zhao Yougong was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but look at Tang Miao, Tang Miao was also shocked, obviously not expecting Fu Zhao to change his words temporarily. was about to be reprimanded, but saw Fu Zhao's body trembling and lying on the ground softly. A trace of blood slowly oozed from the corner of his mouth. Fu Zhao actually bit his tongue and committed suicide, and he actually used his life to defend Ma Binlun. What a loyal man. Zhao Yougong's face was cloudy, and a trace of confusion flashed in Tang Miao's eyes, Ma Binlun was framed?
Fu Zhao committed suicide, Ma Binlun sat on the ground with a miserable smile, Fu Zhao seemed to be swearing to defend him Ma Binlun, but in fact, he did so. Doesn't it show that the two have a great relationship? Ma Binlun didn't know where to offend Fu Zhao. The surname Fu even died and dragged his horse to hell. Indeed, as Ma Binlun thought, Zhao Yougong's face became more and more gloomy. There was a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and after waving his hand to drag Ma Binlun and the others down, Zhao Yougong put away his smile and sat in the chair with a sad face. In fact, Fu Zhao's death did not deepen Zhao Yougong's hatred for Ma Binlun, on the contrary, there was a trace of suspicion. One qiΔ is too perfect, since the army withdrew from Qinglong Town, all the spearheads were pointed at Ma Binlun, especially Fu Zhao's death, which seemed to be protecting Ma Binlun, but it actually pushed Ma Binlun into the bottomless abyss.
All indications are that Ma Binlun deserves to be killed, and sometimes there is more evidence, which is not a good thing. Zhao Yougong has always felt that there is no perfect thing in the world, just like to impeach a person, no matter how bad that person is, how many people are impeached, there are still people to protect, people live for a lifetime, who does not have relatives and friends, let alone above the officialdom, so it is normal for unfavorable situations to occur, just right, when everyone unanimously impeaches a certain person, it is necessary to think about it. Now the current situation is similar to the impeachment of the imperial court, squinted his eyes, and thought carefully, "When Fu Zhao was interrogated, was there anything abnormal?" β
In fact, Tang Miao had already recalled the previous incident, and when he heard Zhao Yougong ask, he immediately arched his hand and said, "Back to Your Highness, there is no abnormality, but now that I think about it, my subordinates feel that it is a little hasty, and I don't rule out the possibility that Fu Zhao deliberately led it, if there is enough time to leave my subordinates for interrogation, I should be able to let Fu Zhao confide the truth." It's just that right now, Fu Zhao is dead. β
"In other words, what Fu Zhao said before may be false?"
"Yes, this possibility is not ruled out, Your Highness, what to do now? Fu Zhao is dead, the clue is broken, what should this Ma Binlun do? β
"Lock it up first, but all the guards will be replaced by personal soldiers, and in addition, Ma Binlun, Liang Fangluo, father and son will be personally responsible for you" After the order went down, Tang Miao withdrew from the camp. Zhao Yougong thought about it, beckoned Sanniang to whisper a few words, and then Sanniang left Wujiang County in a hurry.
On August 24, according to the agreed plan, Ma Binlun was pushed to the entrance of the vegetable market in Wujiang County at noon, and this time Ning Guoxiao, who was under the control of Ma Budu of Suzhou Prefecture, personally supervised and beheaded, and at noon, an order was issued, and the executioner cut more than 300 knives alive on Ma Binlun's body before taking Ma Binlun's life. Ma Binlun's death was applauded by some people, while others were sad.
But as far as the whole Jiangnan is concerned, Ma Binlun is a small soldier and horse commander, and he is really not a big man, but on the same night that Ma Binlun was killed, Gu Mingtao, the former deputy general of Ma Binlun's cronies and now the guard general of Deqing County in Huzhou, led his troops to mutiny, and led more than 1,000 of his cronies to escape from Deqing County and join Li Tianrun in Hangzhou that night. The matter in Deqing County is not big, and what is even more severe is that Ma Binlun died, and the entire Wujiang County was completely unstable. This time is not a simple anger, more than 10,000 troops in the West Camp surrounded the entire Wujiang County, although Niu Gao made preparations in advance, but the two sides really want to move troops, which is not a good thing. Due to the great changes in Wujiang County, Xiao Yue and others stationed in Tonghui Town were afraid that Zhao Yougong would make a mistake, so they immediately withdrew from Tonghui Town and withdrew to the north bank of Songjiang, while the thieves of Qinglong Town took the opportunity to go all the way north and captured a large area on the south bank of Songjiang.
On August 25, Cao Ying, the commander of Xiuzhou's soldiers and horses, ordered to erect a ladder, and he personally beat his horse to the city and shouted to the city, "Today, we are waiting for the siege of the city, just to seek justice, and I hope that His Royal Highness the King of Qin will come forward to say something, why should General Ma be cut with a thousand knives?" I can't wait! β
Ning Guoxiao stood at the head of the city, his expression was full of anxiety, although he had seen a lot of winds and waves, but it was the first time he had seen the situation in front of him, but he still had to force himself to calm down, "Cao Ying, you are so bold." Led the crowd to mutiny. and attack His Royal Highness the King of Qin, do you know what the crime is? β
"General Ning, at this juncture, it's too late to say anything, isn't it just death? It's a big deal that Lao Tzu patted his ass and went to Fang La to find a way to survive, and he also saved all kinds of bird gas here! β
"Cao Ying. Do you really want to rebel? β
"What about the other way around? Hmph, that Bird Highness killed Fu Zhao, and now Ma Binlun is also dead. Can he still let Cao go? β
"Hmph, what a traitor Cao Ying. I'll let you die today" Ning Guoxiao suddenly sneered, clapped his hands, and there was one more person beside him, only to see that person was wearing silver armor, with broad shoulders, a bulging forehead, and bright eyes. See this person. The city was in chaos. Even some of the timid ones were already pale with fright.
Isn't the one at the head of the city Ma Binlun who was put at the entrance of the vegetable market a few days ago? At this time, Ma Binlun stood majestically at the head of the city, without even a little injury on his face. How is it like a man who has been slashed by a thousand swords? What the hell is going on, and why did Ma Binlun come back from the dead?
In fact, it's not complicated to say, since Zhao Yougong had doubts about Ma Binlun's matter, he asked Sanniang to quietly leave Wujiang County and go to Suzhou Mansion, and brought Azhu to Wujiang in the middle of the night. After that, find a death row prisoner who is about the same size as Ma Binlun, and add Azhu's amazing disguise technique, it is easy to create a fake Ma Binlun. At the beginning, Zhao Yougong was not sure that Ma Binlun must have been wronged, and finding a death row prisoner to replace Ma Binlun was just a two-handed preparation. When Cao Ying relied on the resentment of the soldiers of the Western Battalion against the imperial court and organized a mutiny of the soldiers, Zhao Yougong was glad that he had made preparations.
As soon as she saw Ma Binlun, Cao Ying's face became frightened, in fact, Cao Ying knew very well that Ma Binlun was still alive, and this mutiny was about to fail, and whether he Cao Ying could survive depends on how fast he escaped.
"Cao Ying, someone in vain put his heart on you, I didn't expect you to treat a certain family like this. Fu Zhao was instigated by you, sue sΓΉ Ma, who are you working for? Ma Binlun said, Tie Qing shouted at the soldiers under the city with a blue face, "Brothers, Cao Ying is a thief, don't wait for his evil deeds, quickly put down your weapons, His Royal Highness the King of Qin should not be blamed for the past." β
Cao Ying's expression changed dramatically, and he didn't even have the mind to explain, so he ran out of the horse, and ran out of more than ten zhang in an instant, but unfortunately Cao Ying's speed was fast, and there was an arrow faster than him, and he didn't go far, Cao Ying snorted in pain and fell off the horse. Shi Wengong put away his strong bow, his face showed disdain, such a straw bag, he dared to gather a crowd to mutiny, he really didn't know whether he was alive or dead.
Cao Ying died so simply, Zhao Yougong, who was standing behind him and watching, couldn't help frowning, he originally wanted to catch Cao Ying and ask questions, but now it seems that there is no chance. However, Zhao Yougong will not blame Shi Wengong, Cao Ying is so greedy for life and afraid of death, it is estimated that he doesn't know anything important, and, looking at the mystery of this conspiracy, eighty percent is a ghost who listens to Yuge, because in addition to listening to Yuge, Zhao Yougong has never found any organization that can have such a big hand.
Since it is determined that Ma Binlun was framed, the previous charges should naturally be canceled, and with Ma Binlun's acquittal, Liang Fanglue's father and son also left the cell. At the same time, Zhao Yougong remembered that Ma Binlun had been in Jiangnan for a long time, so he stationed him in Wuxingtang, and Ning Guoxiao changed his town to Kunshan County.
Although a conspiracy has survived temporarily, there are still many mysteries that have not yet been solved, the most interesting of which is what happened to the grain and grass stored in Qinglong Town. It doesn't matter if Zhao Yougong is more serious, or if he is dead-eyed, in short, he still keeps staring at this matter, if he doesn't understand the problem of food, he always feels uneasy in his heart.
Finally, the hard work paid off, Zhao Yougong has been staring at the food puzzle, and even Tang Miao and Shi Bao have to do their best to investigate, and two days later, that is, on August 27, a little progress has finally been made. When Ma Binlun was stationed in Qinglong Town before, in addition to Ma Binlun himself and the deputy general Tang Wenyuan, it was the treasurer Xue Yang who checked the warehousing and inspected it on weekdays. Ma Binlun has no problem, Tang Wenyuan has already died in battle, so the only one who can find out something is only the treasurer Xue Yang. This Xue Yang is a native of Wujiang County, since the army withdrew to the West Camp, he returned to live in the county mansion, Tang Miao since learning about Xue Yang's people, immediately sent his cronies to Xue Yang's mansion to raise people, but when he arrived at Xue's house, he found that Xue Yang was stabbed to death in the study.
The Xue family cried, Xue Yang sat in the chair with his face up, a sharp short knife in his chest, and the paper was placed very flat on the table in front of him, as if nothing had happened.
Looking at Xue Yang in front of him, Tang Miao sighed secretly, but he didn't expect to be a step late. As soon as Xue Yang died, he finally traced the clues of the Dao, and suddenly disappeared again.
As soon as Xue Yang died, Tang Miao immediately sent the news to Zhao Yougong, in this regard, what else could Zhao Yougong say except sigh and sigh bad luck? Although the clues are gone, it leaves Zhao Yougong with a feeling that Ma Binlun's matter does not seem to be over.
Due to the accident in Wujiang County, Xiao Yue and Gao Chong withdrew the army to the north bank of Songjiang, causing the entire south of Songjiang to be occupied by thieves, and Zhao Yougong's desire to capture Qinglong Town within a few days could only be shattered. In desperation, Zhao Yougong could only go to the front line to ponder how to recross the Songjiang River, and when the war clouds on both sides of the Songjiang River were thick, Fang La also rushed to Lin'an, Hangzhou from Muzhou. Lin'an, is a rich place in Hangzhou, a palace is extremely luxurious, at this time a broad figure, eyes like a heavy jujube middle-aged man sitting in the palace, a solemn face, this person is Fang La. Although Fang La has been raising troops for many years and has killed countless people, his face is by no means ruthless, if he doesn't know, he thinks that Fang La is a rich man.
Recently, Fang La's life has not been easy, to be precise, since he came to Ding**, he has felt a huge pressure, and he has heard for a long time that he can fight well, and there are many unbelief, but several small-scale fights in Xiuzhou, coupled with Zhao Yougong's thunderous means in Suzhou Mansion, are enough for Fang La's heart. There are more than 20 people in the palace, Chinese Wu Quan, Prime Minister Fang Fei, Shen Shou, and Bachelor Huanyi.
In the Lin'an Palace, Fang La gathered his subordinates to discuss major matters, and on the north bank of the Songjiang River, Ding ** had also been gearing up, and at the same time, Song Jiang and Lu Junyi also led more than 40,000 troops into Huzhou by two routes, and Tong Guan arrived at the Dongjin River in the south of Yizhou with Xin Xingzong as the general. As for how to cross the Songjiang River, Zhao Yougong had already made a decision, and at midnight on August 28, Hu Yanzhuo and Guan Sheng led the troops to Shanghai for business. Shanghai is a northeastern town in Xiuzhou, where the Songjiang River and the Huangpu River intersect, although it looks inconspicuous, but this is the future of Shanghai, maybe others do not pay attention to here, but Zhao Yougong feels that this is an opportunity. That night, Hu Yanzhuo and Guan Sheng entered the Huangpu River from Songjiang in small boats, followed the Huangpu River to the south, and then turned west along the Huangpu River to the south of Biting County. At the end of August 29, an army of 5,000 suddenly appeared outside the city of Biting County and launched a fierce attack on the county without warning. (To be continued.) (lw0γ om))
