Chapter 332: Lubu's Victory (Part II)

Named Chaozhou soldiers sent to report to the Son of Heaven?

Liang Mingyuan was stunned for a moment, and then laughed out loud, a named Chaozhou general soldier dared to send someone to Lubu to report the victory, this is really him. Damn, it makes people laugh and lose their big teeth.

Liang Mingyuan's subordinates also burst out laughing, what is the Named General Soldier, can they not know? A small county town can live in a few registered soldiers, and such goods dare to report to the Son of Heaven? Real him. Damn, I'm not afraid to flash my waist.

The Taiping army was very confused by the laughter of Liang Mingyuan and his subordinates, and they didn't know why these people laughed.

Liang Shuanghu, a native of Jiangxi, was the leader of the Taiping Army's team to report victory, and Guo Shao, the ambassador of the Liangzi Township Salt Patrol Office, served as the envoy.

Liang Shuanghu has never done this kind of thing, and he doesn't know how to deal with the people of Kunming, let alone how to report this victory, so he listened to what Guo Shao said along the way, and the Lubu just made was also Guo Shao's idea, saying that Lubu could make the people in Kunming City and the officials in the court know the prestige of the Taiping Army, and the Son of Heaven would also pay special attention to it.

Liang Shuanghu is also illiterate, I don't know what Guo Shao wrote on the square silk cloth, before he came, he asked his old boss Shao Jiugong for instructions on what to do in Kunming, Shao Jiugong didn't say anything else, just let him ask Guo Shao more in trouble, just do what Guo Shao wanted. It is said that Guo Shao is a scholar, the ink in his stomach is much more than ours, and he knows a lot of things, since the marshal asked him to be a good messenger, then we will listen to him, and we must not make our own opinions, otherwise it is not only the face of our Taiping Army that will be lost by making jokes in Kunming. It is even more embarrassing for our Jiangxi people.

Liang Shuanghu is a sincere person and a dead eye, he listens to everything Shao Jiugong says. So along the way, he didn't make any decisions about anything, only listened to Guo Shao's orders, and even shouted one by one, and really praised Guo Shao to the sky.

According to Guo Shao's intentions, Lu Bu was raised, but the people in Kunming City laughed at them, Liang Shuanghu felt that something was wrong, and it was not good to ask people directly what they were laughing at. asked Guo Shao in a low voice: "Master Guo, what are they laughing at?" ”

Guo Shao coughed lightly, he was also very confused about this question. Before the surrender of the Taiping Army. He is only an ambassador of the Bapin Salt Patrol Station, and he has seen the world not much more than Liang Shuanghu, and this revelation is also the idea he has in mind now, how to operate it. Actually, he didn't know. Now Lubu typed out. The name was also reported, but the people laughed, making him think that he had made a mistake.

Guo Shao was also embarrassed to tell Liang Shuanghu that he might have made a mistake with Lubu, so he stubbornly bowed his hand to Liang Mingyuan and said: "This general, I came all the way from Guangdong to report the victory to the Son of Heaven, but I don't know when the general asked me to wait to enter the city to face the saint?" ”

"Into the city?"

Liang Mingyuan suppressed his laughter and secretly said that these guys are really thick-skinned.

He looked Guo Shao up and down, not answering the other party. Instead, he asked with a smile: "What is the surname of the chief soldier of your family?" ”

Guo Shao was just about to speak, but Liang Shuanghu shouted first: "My family's chief soldier's surname is Zhou Mingshixiang." ”

"Zhou Shixiang?"

Liang Mingyuan seemed to think that he had heard the name somewhere. But he couldn't remember it for a while, thinking that the other party was a registered Chaozhou general soldier, so he asked: "So, you are from Guangdong?" ”

Guo Shaosheng was afraid that Liang Shuanghu would steal the words again, so he hurriedly said: "Exactly, I waited for Kunming to land in Guangxi from Xiangshan, Guangdong a month ago, and it took more than a month to arrive. After speaking, he remembered something, and hurriedly said: "Oh, by the way, when I came, I didn't know that Nanning had fallen into the hands of the Qing army, and I fought with them." ”

"Did you fight the Qing army in Guangxi?"

Liang Mingyuan couldn't help but look at the more than 100 strong men of the Taiping Army again, nodded, and praised: "You can escape, you do have some ability." ”

"Escape?"

Guo Shao was stunned, and was about to say that they didn't escape, but Liang Shuanghu shouted proudly: "This general, we didn't escape, but beat the Qing army away." ”

"Just you more than 100 people to beat the Qing army away?"

Most of the Qing troops in Guangxi were the banner soldiers of the Han army under Kong Youde, Liang Mingyuan had fought with them back then, and knew that these people were very difficult, so he would not let go of them, unless they hurt them, or they would kill you. Therefore, he didn't believe that the Taiping army in front of him, which only had more than 100 people, could beat the Qing army he encountered on the road and ran away, and then calmly came from Guangxi to Kunming.

Liang Mingyuan's subordinates also sneered, this time Liang Shuanghu and the Taiping army could see it, it turned out that people didn't believe them at all.

Liang Shuanghu blushed and shouted: "This general, I, Liang Shuanghu, have never said big things, our brothers did beat those demons away, if you don't believe it, ask our brothers one by one." ”

These words made the soldiers on the other side laugh again, how can there be such a verification in the world.

Liang Mingyuan shook his head with a smile, knowing that this Liang Shuanghu was a rough man, so he didn't continue to ridicule the other party, but only asked Guo Shao: "What victory did your Zhou General Soldier send you to report to the imperial court?" ”

Speaking of business, Guo Shao hurriedly said: "Our Taiping army fought twice with the Qing army in Guangzhou, and captured 218 Manchurian true Tartar heads, and beheaded 856 Han army banner soldiers under Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao, more than 3,230 Guangdong green battalion soldiers, and captured 3,150 Qing soldiers, and 14 Manchurian soldiers surrendered to our Taiping army, including one leader. Therefore, the chief soldier of my family specially ordered us to come to Kunming to report the victory to the Son of Heaven! ”

After Guo Shao finished speaking, Liang Shuanghu snorted and pointed to the carriage lanes behind him: "These cars are loaded with military flags captured from the Tartars, and the other is the cut off real Tartar heads, my marshal specially asked us to bring them over to ask the court to verify them, if you don't believe it, check it on the spot, and see if what we say is true or false!" ”

As soon as the two of them spoke, Liang Mingyuan's own soldiers were buzzing.

"True Tartar head? Is it really a real Tartar head in the car? ”

"Brag, how could the real Tartars surrender to my Ming army?"

"These people said that even the military flags full of eight banners have been surrendered, and it seems that it is true. Otherwise, you will know the authenticity of things as soon as they are checked, and if you really want to brag, you won't get some fake things out, right? ”

“”

The soldiers were discussing. Everyone's eyes fell on the carriages and mule carts behind Liang Shuanghu.

"Test, see if what they say is true or false, if it is false, the brothers will not beat them to death!" One of the soldiers shouted.

Someone from the Taiping army fought back, shouting: "It can't be fake, it can't be fake, everything is here." We're not afraid of you coming to test it! ”

"If it's fake, just wait!"

"If it's true, are you going to let us beat us up too!"

"Hey. If it's true, what if Lao Tzu lets you beat you up! ”

“”

The people below quarreled, and Liang Shuanghu was also holding back the fire in his heart, sulking for the other party to underestimate himself. Therefore, Liang Mingyuan was not taken care of.

Guo Shao saw that this was not the case. Hurriedly said to Liang Mingyuan: "This general, do you want to take a look?" ”

"Test!"

The smile on Liang Mingyuan's face had long since disappeared, he turned over and jumped off his mount and walked to the side of the carriages, where two quick subordinates took the lead in lifting the linen and hay covering the carriages.

"Lime!"

Everyone looked into the car, which was covered with a layer of lime.

Could it be that under the lime is really the head of a tartar?

Liang Mingyuan and the others all took a breath, anyone could get the heads of the Green Battalion and the Han Army, but the heads of the real Manchurian Tartars were not so easy to get. In the battle of Hengbao that year, although the king of Jin beheaded the Manchu prince Nikan. But in the end, there were only more than 1,000 True Manchurian Tartar heads, and now a small registered soldier has also won more than 200 True Manchurian Tartar heads. That's a great thing.

Seeing Liang Mingyuan and the others standing by the carriage and not moving, Liang Shuanghu thought they were scared, so he said on the side: "It's hot, the head of the Tartar can't be saved, I'm afraid of rotting, so my handsome man asked someone to spread lime and salt on it, but it's not just buried inside, the head of the Tartar is soaked in wine and placed at the bottom." On the way, I once opened an altar and saw it, and it wasn't rotten at all! ”

After hearing this, one of Liang Mingyuan's subordinates reached out and grabbed a handful of lime, and sure enough, there were a lot of large salt particles in this lime.

Liang Mingyuan snorted slightly and ordered his subordinates: "Take out the jar!" ”

"Yes, General!"

At that moment, a few soldiers reached out and pulled in the carriage, and after a while, they touched a few jars. One of the soldiers carefully took out one of the jars, and when he saw that it was not only sealed with kraft paper, but also smeared with a layer of mud, he patted off the sealing mud and took out the dagger he carried with him to cut open the cover.

The moment the cover was opened, a smell of wine came to my face.

The soldier sniffed with his nose, and the wine was very fragrant, but when he sniffed it again, he found that the wine tasted strange.

The opening of the jar is huge, and depending on the size, you can really put a head in it. He looked into the jar, and there was indeed a head soaked in the clear wine, and it was not clear from above that the person's appearance could not be seen, but he could only see that the forehead of the head was extremely smooth, and there was indeed a pigtail of money on the back of the head.

"General?" The soldier looked at Liang Mingyuan and asked what to do next.

"Smash it open!"

When the soldier heard this, he hurriedly lifted the wine jar with all his might, and then the jar was smashed to the ground, and the wine jar shattered open, and the wine inside flowed to the ground, and a human head rolled down the wine to his feet.

"Pick it up and check it!"

Liang Mingyuan stared at the human head motionlessly.

The soldier was also a veteran, and he had inspected the head of the real Tartar, and bent down to pick up the head that was a little wrinkled by the wine, not afraid at all, nor taboo, and pinched the mouth of the Tartar's head with his hand, revealing the yellow teeth that were suddenly full of yellow teeth.

After looking at it carefully, the soldier turned around and shouted: "General, it's a real Tartar!" ”

"Show me!"

Liang Mingyuan stepped forward with some excitement and lifted the braid on the back of his head, held it high, and after careful examination, confirmed that this was indeed the head of a real Manchurian Tartar.

Guo Shao stepped forward very happily and said, "This general, is there a mistake at the first level?" ”

"Again!"

Liang Mingyuan ignored Guo Shao, but ordered his subordinates to re-examine the head. At this time, it was not a few people who came to inspect, dozens of soldiers came up, pulled lime from car to car, and took out the wine jar, but listening to the sound of the wine jar smashing the ground and cracking, the heads of the real tartars were taken out by the soldiers for careful inspection.

"That's right, it's a real Tartar's head!"

"Me too!"

"There are a few altars here!"

“”

With the shouts of the soldiers, the heads of the real Manchurian Tartars were raised and stacked together, and the number was indeed 214 as claimed by the Taiping Army.

Suddenly, a soldier cried out in a broken voice with a head in his hand: "What's the matter with this Tartar head?" ”

Several soldiers around thought that they had finally found the head of a fake Tartar, and they surrounded it, and Liang Mingyuan also walked over to check it out for himself. But that head was indeed a real Tartar head, but for some reason, this head had been stitched with needles and threads from top to bottom, and the top to bottom crack was as hideous as a centipede. When I looked at the head carefully, it felt very light, as if the inside of the head was empty.

Liang Mingyuan's subordinates came over and whispered: "General, the number of heads is right, and those military flags are indeed full of eight banners, you can't be wrong!" ”

Liang Mingyuan exhaled and glanced at Liang Shuanghu, who was already proud: "You wait here, I'll go into the city to personally give you a gift!" (To be continued.) )
