Chapter 230: Ulzhou Troubles (II)
Outside, the cool breeze gusted and the yin wind whistled, but the interior was warm like spring, and a sneer came out. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Yuan Shaogong was still the same cynical look, he leaned lazily on the thick fragrant wood seat, and this sneer was naturally made by him.
His eyes that were always bent in the past were also full of light at this time, although he still looked like he was ignoring them, but today they were a little different.
He is not stupid, Xiao Yi's incident today is equivalent to a wake-up call to himself, he has been the president of Qianzhou for so long, and he has no real power under his hands, not that he really doesn't understand anything, on the contrary, it is because he knows a lot that he doesn't care about anything.
At this time, he said to the officer in front of him: "I guess there will be something happening in the next two days, although there are not many people, but you have to watch and watch for me, and don't let them get involved in anything." ”
After receiving the order, the officer of the Ding team was also a little puzzled, and said, "My lord, don't you remind the Lord of Ethics, I am afraid of my duty..."
"Afraid of what?"
Without waiting for the Ding team officer to reply, Yuan Shaogong asked himself and replied: "I'm afraid that Cao Biao and they won't be able to make trouble?" ”
He snorted coldly and said, "Stupid! That Xiao Yi climbed from a small tun official to his current position, can he do it without two brushes? ”
He said: "You don't have to make any moves, tell them, just let me stay at home and watch the play." He suddenly remembered something, and ordered: "Come back, inform Zhou Ding, let him not make a mistake!" ”
Yuan Shaogong is also a little incomprehensible to Xiao Yi, and on the surface, he has the impression that he is a martial artist from a small place, who doesn't understand anything, and is very lustful.
But he carefully pondered Xiao Yi's promotion path, and he can now be sure that under Xiao Yi's simple appearance, there must be a ruthless heart hidden.
He had heard of the name of the Yong'an Army, which was originally unheard of, but in recent months, it suddenly appeared on Datong East Road, and the name shook East Road, and now the entire East Road knows about this army, but most people don't know much about it.
This is by no means groundless, and it is also heard that Xiao Yi and Lu Xiangsheng seem to have some kind of broken relationship, such a person he does not want to be an enemy of him, and he does not expect Xiao Yi to treat him as his own.
He only wants to keep his current glory and official position, and even if he doesn't save it, he is satisfied.
The officer of the Ding team was ordered to go, and Yuan Shaogong took the servant girl behind him into his arms, and kissed the servant girl on the pink face of the servant girl, causing the servant girl to be disobedient for a while.
Immediately afterwards, some cold voices came out: "Cao Biao, Ma Chongen, and Xiang Zhicheng, these three fools, have been flying in front of the official on weekdays, and they don't put the official in their eyes at all, this time I will see how you will die!" ”
……
August 16 of the third year of Chongzhen, this day is an unforgettable day for the current military and civilians of Ulzhou City.
Early in the morning, a strong wind howled over the city of Ulju, blowing a rare strong wind and sand, and a strong haze of wind and haze, which was not a good phenomenon in everyone's impression.
Even at this time, many people believed that the sudden haze was a sign of the atmosphere of the sword soldiers.
Sure enough, as soon as the sky was dawning, officers and soldiers who were hard to see on weekdays actually appeared from everywhere, armed with swords and guns, and even carried some special flags.
The people who got up early to catch the market avoided it, and some of the brave people looked over, and they were shocked by the words written on the flag.
"Loyalty and righteousness serve the country, and the court does not pay salaries!"
"Asking for military salaries is justified!"
They held all kinds of flags and went in the direction of the Ulju Prefecture and the Ulju Prefecture, and many people shouted in the middle of the crowd to arouse the enthusiasm of those officers and men.
"I'm struggling to practice, but I'm hungry and cold, and I'm waiting for justice!"
Among them, the people who are at the forefront are some people with rough appearances and arrogant behavior, and those who have a heart can see that they are strong and strong, and their every move does not look like ordinary officers and soldiers, they are the subordinates of Cao Biao, Ma Chongen and Xiang Zhicheng.
Most of them were almost all ruffians on weekdays, and of course there were many ruffians who were rampant in the streets and markets on weekdays, and they were mixed in, and they together were more than the officers and soldiers who were making trouble, and at this time they got a military uniform from somewhere, and walked all the way with knives and guns.
These people came out in a huge way, although there were not thousands, but there were hundreds of people in total, and in comparison, the rebellion in Peach Blossom Fort seemed a bit childish.
Most of them are disorderly, none of the generals come forward, and even those family members dare not show up when they are involved, so there is no organization.
Such a thing happened in the state city, and none of Cao Biao, Ma Chongen, Xiang Zhicheng and others, who had been powerful and blessed on weekdays, saw it, and their mansion was closed without any movement, and even Zhenfu Yuan Shaogong didn't know where to go.
These officers and men came all the way with their faces covered with meat, and some of the small stalls and vendors they passed by were all knocked over, and no one came to stop them, and they became even more presumptuous, and even left the procession in groups of three or five, rushed into the shops on the side of the road, smashed and looted.
At this time, the people finally knew what was happening, and someone shouted: "The officers and soldiers are in trouble!" ”
Officers and soldiers are paid, which is synonymous with making everyone tremble at this time, Xiao Yi led the army into Taiyuan Mansion to aid the suppression, and happened to meet the officers and soldiers of Dingxian County, and the Yongan Army entered the city in time to quell the chaos, so as to exterminate the rebellious army, but Dingxian County is still empty.
The rebellion of the officers and soldiers in the state city is a big deal, Dingxian and Taohuabao are only small places in the final analysis, and the city of Ulzhou is very big, and the officers and soldiers are uncontrolled, and they have long forgotten what they came out to do in the first place.
There was a burst of chickens and dogs jumping in the streets, men screaming, women wailing, and countless people fleeing in all directions.
On weekdays, they are poor military households, and at most they can only go to the Qinglou to have fun, at this time, when they see the women on the street, they are like jackals and beasts, holding down a woman on the street, and the heart-rending screams are coming, and they are actually doing that kind of thing openly on the street!
Cao Biao and others didn't expect that the military discipline of their subordinates would be so unbearable, and how long had it been, they threw down their banners one after another, like wolves seeing sheep, burning and looting everywhere, and they had degenerated from an official army to a complete chaotic army.
……
In the governance of Ulzhou Chengzhou, Wang Zhan has long lost his former calm appearance, and when he heard the trouble, it was like a thunderbolt from the sky, and the rest of the civil officials were like this.
There was no warning of what happened, how could it be so good, what did Cao Biao do to eat, and his subordinates didn't even know about it? !
How terrible it is for officers and soldiers to make trouble, even if Wang Zhan and others have not personally experienced it, they have heard a lot, they kill people and set fires, they do all kinds of evil, and they do everything they do.
And he is more worried about the safety of his own state governance, God knows if the newly appointed integrity officer Xiao Yi can pacify the rebellious army, even if it is appeased afterwards, it will definitely be a heavy loss both inside and outside.
He was frightened, and the clerical officials around him were also frightened like a mess, on weekdays they boasted about big and small things, but at this time they still had to rely on the generals, they were powerless, and they could make the rebels turn into jade silk with just one mouth?
Wang Zhan suddenly remembered that he immediately ordered the state officials to mobilize the people of the palace to protect the state government, as for going out to quell the chaos, he had never thought about it, he didn't have the ability to do this kind of thing. (To be continued.) )
