In Tongling, Chizhou Prefecture, after listening to the latest military situation reported by Han Kedong, the magistrate Chen Zhongqing's cheeks suddenly turned pale, and he said in disbelief: "Didn't Zhekou collapse itself, why did he gather thousands of people to attack my Tongling?" ”

Han Qian also had a bitter face, the situation was originally very good, but after hearing that Zhejiang Kou was collapsing, he hurriedly led his troops to hunt down and kill the fleeing Zhejiang Kou. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info so many days, although the harvest is not large, but there are still 100 heads. You must know that these Zhejiang Kou are not the money rattail pigtails of the new dynasty Yazheng, but the real bundle of hair and long hair, so there is no killing at all, but the end is a great military exploit, and when the head is handed over, he Han Kedong will stand out from the crowd, and it is difficult to think of underdevelopment. But who the hell knew that just a few days after the good days, those frightened Zhekou gathered and killed again. It is said that they were killed from Jiangbei, and they attacked the city all the way, and they made a lot of noise, God knows what those people in Jiangbei were eating!

"My lord, Zhekou dares to do this, is it that the bandits have gone and returned?"

It was Lu Bangding, the master of Chen Zhixian County, who spoke and Xiucai from Shaoxing, Zhejiang. Counting up, the Tongling County Ya has changed seven masters, but this Master Lu is an iron bench, and he has not moved his nest for more than ten years, so that there are more people in Tongling City who know Master Lu than those who know the county respect. It can really be described as an iron-beaten master, a county lord of flowing water.

"It's possible, otherwise Zhekou wouldn't be so bold and dare to turn back!"

Han Qian always felt that Master Lu's guess was likely to be true, otherwise he wouldn't be able to explain that Zhekou was embarrassed to run to Jiangbei a few days ago, but now he dared to gather people to crash into Jiangnan. The spies he sent out could see clearly, and the Zhejiang Kou fleet, which had been scattered by a bang, had now regrouped, and the posture had the meaning of breaking the river again, and now Nanjing was afraid that it would be killed by the pirates again!

Chen Zhixian couldn't sit still, he hurriedly said to Han Qian: "Zhekou has a few thousand people, I'm afraid we can't hold it with few soldiers, Han Qian should quickly send someone to Fucheng and Wuhu to ask for help, otherwise we will be finished!" ”

Han Qian hesitated for a moment, but he swept away the bitterness on his face, and Chen Zhixian, who was very calm, said: "Don't go to ask for help, let's do it anyway." ”

"Anyway?" Master Lu was stunned.

"Anyway!" Chen Zhixian was also stunned, but he said more than Master Lu.

"We've already lowered Zhekou once last time, and they can still trust us this time? Han Qian still thinks twice, if Zhekou loses again, what should we do? ”

Master Lu objected to it again, he didn't want to make a mess like last time, he was worried every day, and listened to the movement outside when he slept at night, for fear that the soldiers of Fucheng would come to hunt down and kill them who had defected to the enemy.

"We have killed so many Zhekou, can Zhekou really let us go? No, no, this can't work, I think it's better to go and ask for help. ”

Chen Zhixian didn't want to do it anyway, he was also a Jinshi anyway, just drop once, and he really can't do it again, if he really wants to do this, won't he become a capricious villain. Besides, when Zhekou came, he changed his name to Siming; As soon as the bandits were defeated, he changed his name to Chungcheong; If you listen to Mr. Chen Qian, wouldn't you have to change your name back to Siming? In ancient times, Meng's mother moved three times, is it possible that today he Chen Zhixian wants to change his name three times? What is this?

Mr. Han Qian made up his mind, he gritted his teeth and said: "Far water can't quench the thirst of the near, pointing to the soldiers of Fucheng and Wuhu to save us, I'm afraid we will already go to the ghost gate." At this juncture, don't think about those useless things, save your life first. ”

"There's no other way?"

Chen Zhixian looked bitter, and Master Lu was also bitter.

Han Qian gave him a blank look: "Even if Fucheng and Wuhu receive the news and can send troops to save us, we will have to resist Zhejiang Kou alone for a few days, there are hundreds of defenders in the city right now, but there are thousands of people in Zhejiang, when the time comes, what will we do to stop it?" It's really going to be a critical time, will the county zun go to kill the enemy or Master Lu go to kill the enemy? ”

"I..."

Master Lu coughed lightly twice, joke, he is a dignified staff master, and there has been no reason for a master to go to the battlefield since ancient times!

Chen Zhixian also had a sneering face, and he didn't think much of Han Qianzong's words, how could his dignified county magistrate, who was born as a top three-class jinshi, fight like a big-headed soldier? This... This is so insulting!

"It's really not good, why don't we run?" Master Lu suggested that he thought this method was better than anyway.

I don't want Chen Zhixian to shake his head like a wave drum: "I can't run, this run, the lives of the whole family in this county will be lost!" ”

Mr. Han Qian glared at Master Lu, he can run as a master, can he and Chen Zhixian run! If you really want to run away, you will inevitably be punished by the Qing court when you turn back, and you will still be a dead person, so it is better to see again and wait and see the wind. Although this is a very dangerous thing, it is much better than being killed with your hands tied. Besides, this Tongling is his territory, and the family business he has purchased for many years is also in Tongling, so he abandoned it like this, which is more fatal than killing him. The so-called stay in the green mountains, not afraid of no firewood, as long as Tongling is in his hands one day, he will have room to turn around. If there is really no territory, what is the difference between him and a salted fish?

"Don't think about it, listen to me, let's do it anyway. Anyway, Zhekou will take us as his own people, and when the time comes, he will not only be able to save his life, but also keep Tongling, why not? Han Qian tried his best to persuade these two people, bent on pulling them into the water again.

"Then let's kill so many Zhekou?"

Master Lu was a little worried, and he also regretted it greatly, he had known that the bandit Zhekou would go and come back, so he should have persuaded the county lord and Han Qian not to kill and leave a way back.

Mr. Han Qian was not worried about this, he said: "That's each for its own master, what is there to say, now that we are lost, he can't chill the heart of our Tongling official gentry, right?" If it really doesn't work, I'll find a few scapegoats to go out. ”

"Then what if Zhekou loses again?" Chen Zhixian was still a little hesitant, and always felt that Han Qianzong's method was not safe.

Han Qian didn't think about it and said, "Do you need to say this?" Of course, we will continue to be our Qing officials, we already have experience, and we are not very familiar with doing it again. ”

Chen Zhixian and Master Lu were speechless, they used to feel that they were already thick-skinned enough, and they didn't want to compare with Han Qianzong, it was a small witch who saw a big witch.

Chen Zhixian sighed: "Aren't we the ones who have come and gone become repeated villains?" ”

Mr. Han Qian said, "Which is more important, reputation or life?" ”

"Of course, lives matter." Chen Zhixian said honestly that he was really afraid of death.

"That's the end of it!" Mr. Han Qian made the final decision: "We're going to be anyway, right away!" ”

Chen Zhixian didn't say anything, but obviously acquiesced. Master Lu thought about it, but he couldn't think of any other way to save his life immediately besides anyway, so he nodded in agreement. However, he asked Mr. Han Qian: "What if someone refuses to join us anyway?" ”

"Won't come with us?" Han Qian's eyes showed a fierce look, "Then we will convict him of being a thief, give him a white knife to enter, and a red knife to come out!" ”

"I can only do this, the specific things are presided over by President Lao Hanqian, this county's heart is really uncertain, it is better to burn incense and worship the Buddha."

When Chen Zhixian walked to the door, he felt something in his heart again, and said to President Han Qian and Master Lu: "In this world, it is not easy to be an official, it is not easy..."
