Chapter 11 The road is uneven
Listening to Zhang Miao's emotion, Wu Yi was a little puzzled: "Why did Senior Brother say this? ”
"Chen Gong wrote two things in the letter, one of which is to recommend Ziyuan you to help the official, as the so-called famous teacher produces a high apprentice, Ziyuan is very happy to come to the official, so there is no difficulty in this matter. But the second thing is that Chen Gong asked his official to eliminate the Taiping Dao forces in the territory, so as to prevent the Taiping Dao from taking advantage www.biquge.info of the opportunity of the catastrophe from heaven to wantonly win over the people's hearts and plot against them. Speaking of which, Taiping Dao has greatly expanded its power in recent years, and this official will naturally not be unaware if he is not blind or deaf, but if he really wants to clear the Taiping Dao forces in the territory, it is far from enough to rely on the power of the county guard.
Regardless of the fact that the imperial court is now controlled by the eunuch party, Taiping Dao and the eunuch party are inextricably linked. This official could not get the troop transfer document issued by the imperial court, and he could not use the large-scale troop transfer to clear out the Taiping Dao forces in the territory. Even if the official wants to use the private soldiers to do something to those Taiping Dao, you can also see that the disaster in the county is serious, and the books and slips of the counties and townships requesting rescue of grain and grass are about to pile up. Zhang Miao threw the bundle of bamboo slips he had just reviewed on the desk aside, his eyes full of exhaustion and sorrow.
Wu Yi knew that Zhang Miao was not lying, this year, Yanzhou was hit by a locust plague, and the overwhelming locust storm did not grow anywhere. Although Chenliu County is not the most severely affected place in Yanzhou, there are still some counties and townships affected by neighboring counties, and seeing that the crops in the fields are eaten by locusts, the people all put their hopes for survival on the government. If at this time, Zhang Miao used the grain and grass that should be allocated for disaster relief to clear Taiping Dao, then Taiping Dao only needs to bewitch those hungry people a little, but I am afraid that Zhang Miao will not even be able to sit down in this county guard.
"The predicament encountered by the senior brother was expected by the teacher, and the reason why the teacher sent me back to Chenliu was also to hope that I could mobilize my father to fund to help the senior brother solve some of the problems. I had already talked with my father last night, and he was willing to donate 10,000 yuan and 20,000 yuan of grain and grass to supply the needs of the soldiers who cleared Taiping Road this time. If the senior brother feels that this money is not enough, the father is willing to contact the rest of the families in the county to donate together. ”
Zhang Miao still hesitated a little when he heard Wu Yi's words: "If you can get the big families in the county to donate money and food, it will not only alleviate the disaster in the county, but also mobilize a group of troops to clear the Taiping Dao forces in the territory." It's just that after all, Taiping Dao has become a climate, and there is collusion with the eunuch party, if this war goes well, it is better to say, if there is a ........"
"The teacher plans and then acts, since he wants to deal with this Taiping Dao, he will naturally not leave them with life. In addition to this Chen Liu, the teacher also contacted many surrounding states and counties to attack the Taiping Road together. If Taiping Dao is tied up and captured, as long as Taiping Dao dares to resist, there will be officials in Luoyang who will immediately play the Son of Heaven, and Taiping Dao will collude with the sect members of Zhuzhou County to launch a rebellion.
At that time, the saint will be furious, and if the eunuchs still dare to speak for the Taiping Dao, I am afraid that the saint will not be able to bypass them today. And it won't take long for the imperial court to organize a group of central troops to come to 'quell the rebellion', no matter how good or bad our war with Taiping Dao is developing at that time, it is all fighting against rebellion, only meritorious service and no guilt! ”
This trick is the authentic 'official forced rebellion', no matter how powerful Taiping Dao is, after all, it is a non-governmental organization, as long as Zhang Miao and them deal with you in the name of the government, you can't resist, otherwise you will rebel and rebel!
Zhang Miao's face finally overflowed with a smile when he heard this: "Chen Gong is worthy of being a famous man in the world, and this kind of strategy can be described as a last resort!" Since Chen Gong has arranged things so properly, if this official shirks again, wouldn't it be worthy of his kindness to Chen Gong back then? Ziyuan, from today onwards, this official will appoint you as a staff member of the county guard's office, specifically responsible for contacting the families in the county. When the grain and grass are sufficient, we will start to the Taiping Road in the territory. ”
"No!"
After Wu Yi received an appointment from Zhang Miao, he left the county guard mansion with great satisfaction, and returned home to discuss with his father Wu Ke, and his father Wu Ke took the initiative to take over the task of connecting the families in the county.
Chen stayed in the Spring and Autumn Period, which belonged to Zheng Land, and was later invaded by Chen, so it was named Chen Liu, and during the Warring States Period, King Wei Hui named this place Daliang and set Wei Capital and this place. After Qin Shi Huang ruled the world, he abolished the feudal counties and established this place as Chenliu County, which belonged to the Sanchuan County until Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty divided Henan County into Henan County, and re-placed this place as Chenliu County and extended it to this day.
As the county seat of Chenliu County, Chenliucheng is located in the Central Plains in all directions, so the city gathers businessmen from all over the world. The streets of the city are full of pedestrians, and the brocade robes of the northern Horse River can be bought in this market. Although this is Wu Yi's hometown, Wu Yi has lived in Yingchuan College for most of these years, and everything here is as fresh as Xu Shu around him.
While strolling along the way, he suddenly heard a woman's cry from the alley in front of him, Wu Yi and Xu Shu glanced at each other, and led the two guards behind him into the alley quickly.
"Daddy! Daddy, wake up!! Woo~~~~ Thief! You thieves don't die well!! ”
As soon as I entered the alley, I saw a young woman lying on the body of an old man in ragged clothes crying, the old man's head seemed to have been hit hard, and blood flowed down the uneven ground, from such a large pool of blood stains, it can be seen that the old man is basically no longer saved.
The houses in the alley were ordinary people, but they were all huddled in their doors and shivering at the moment, and the reason for this was that there were five or six strong men standing behind the woman, with a sinister smile on their faces and clubs in their hands, and they were by no means good people at first glance.
"The head of the house seems that your daughter is a blessing to your daughter, but the old thing is impatient to live, and he dares to find a bastard and hurt the head of the house. Hum! Think you can escape by hiding in Jiwu County to Chen Liucheng afterwards? But I didn't know that the head of the family had already moved the family business to Chen Liucheng a few years ago, and you guys simply sent it to the door yourself! Brothers, tie up this woman and send her back to the house, and let her know when the head of the house returns. ”
A strong man in the lead spoke arrogantly, and the wooden stick in his hand was stained with blood, so it was obvious that he was one of the perpetrators.
"Stop!"
Seeing that several strong men were ready to arrest people, Xu Shu, who was most unaccustomed to bullying the weak in his life, immediately drew his sword in his hand and shouted loudly, if it weren't for Chen Liucheng here, if he committed a murder, he might have affected his own lord, I'm afraid he would have already poked a few transparent holes in each of these fanatics.
A few strong men didn't expect that there would be someone here who was 'nosy', and when they looked up and saw that Xu Shu was still ready to teach him a lesson, but when he saw Wu Yi with two sword guards coming over, a few guys who bullied the weak and were afraid of the hard immediately hesitated.
"We are the disciples of Chen Liu's Li family, if these friends can make it convenient to leave, if they encounter any difficulties in Chen Liu in the future, they can come to Li Mansion to find me Li Si for help."
The strong man in the lead just didn't want to get entangled with these guys who were obviously not ordinary people, in his opinion, these people might just be impulsive, and they would definitely turn around and leave after hearing the name Chen Liuli they represented.
