Since that day and Li Guo divided their troops in Yuezhou, Pang Yue and Gao Yigong led more than 30,000 men and horses along the Yangtze River all the way to Jingzhou, almost no resistance along the way, and the whole army arrived at Jianli County on this day.

The county seat of Jianli is located in the southeast corner of Jingzhou Prefecture, on the north bank of the Yangtze River, and has been under the rule of the Manchu Qing Dynasty for nearly two years. There was no regular Qing army garrison in the city, except for the three classes of government officials who had recently recruited hundreds of villagers.

Jianli County Commander was also interested, seeing that the Ming army was huge and the flag was in the air, he was unwilling to use his mantis arm as a car, so he simply opened the city and surrendered.

The first to enter the city was the newly formed sailor battalion in Huguang Town. Since the departure from Yuezhou, the 2,000 officers and men of the battalion have been acting as the vanguard and undertaking the task of covering the convoy of baggage boats on the water. After a smooth march along the way, I enjoyed the thrill of breaking through the bamboo, and I was full of spirit and high morale.

Pang Yue had also ordered that if there was a small city along the river that took the initiative to surrender, the Yangwei battalion could send soldiers to land and enter the city first according to the situation, and make all kinds of arrangements for the subsequent army. If there is resistance, do not act rashly, and leave it to the main army to deal with.

With this permission, Xu Sanbao naturally no longer worried about anything, and saw the white flag at the head of Jianli County from a distance, and his heart was overjoyed, and he immediately ordered to dock, leaving some officers and soldiers on the ship to continue to cover the baggage fleet that had also been moored, and then personally took his subordinates to land and run to the county seat. Of course, Yi Liankui was not far behind, and also followed with his own henchmen.

At the gate of the city, the Jianli County Commander had already taken all the officials and officials and a group of gentry in the city to wait here, and saw Xu Sanbao and others arrive majestically. Hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Xiaguan Wang Youhe, on behalf of the gentry and people of Jianli County, I am here to welcome the Ming Wangshi!" ”

"Welcome to the Great Ming King!" The servants and gentry who followed also fell to their knees. His forehead was on the ground, and he echoed tremblingly.

Xu Sanbao has been working as a bandit for a long time before, and he has always been a villain and a scum in the eyes of good people, even if no one dares to say it in person, he doesn't know how many times he has been poked in the back. And when he was on the island, he was only the third in a thousand years, and he had to look at Song Heihu and Shui Fei's faces every day, and the grievances and depression in his heart were really inhumane.

But now. Seeing that the county lord who had always been high in his impression was also lying at his feet begging for mercy like a dog, the huge psychological rebound made Xu Sanbao feel as happy as if he was in the clouds.

"The lower officials and others have surrendered. I also hope that Wang Shi ...... "Seeing that all the characters who came to him were fierce and villainous, the powerless Jianli County Commander couldn't help but shudder in his heart, and cautiously spoke, intending to euphemistically persuade them to surrender on his own initiative. When you go into the city, you will do less iniquity.

"Look at your grandma's legs! Are you so fucking afraid that Lao Tzu will take your life? Xu Sanbao squinted and interrupted the words of the county order. Lao Tzu is a dignified guerrilla general of the Ming Dynasty, and he is very busy with official affairs, so he has no time to worry about goods like you. You old boy is the county master appointed by the Tartars, right? Is the city cleared? Oh, it's already net. How many Tartar garrisons were there in that city? No? Only Xiang Yong? Oh, all the fucking put down their weapons and knelt over there, didn't they? Very good, yes, Lao Tzu likes to be cheerful! What should I say? What is it called and why is the object coming? ”

"Returning to your lordship. It is a person who knows the times for Junjie! Wang Xianling smiled carefully.

"Stop talking nonsense, you Tartar County Master. Let's lead the way in front, go to the Guancang Mansion Treasury in the city first, and the rest of the people will continue to kneel here honestly! See? The follow-up army is already coming this way! Also, Old Five, you take a team of brothers to pile up all the weapons of the village brave, and then show me the people! If you get out of the pool, I'll screw your kid's head off! ”

"Okay, brother, don't worry!" Xu Sanbao's clan brother Xu Lao Wu happily responded and ran towards the gathering place of Xiangyong with a team of soldiers.

"The subordinate obeys, obeys!" Wang Xianling nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and responded again and again, but sighed helplessly in his heart: I thought that I had studied the book of sages and sages for many years before I was able to enter the office, but today I have to be so humble in front of a vulgar and unscrupulous man, it is really humiliating, sad, and lamentable!

Under the guidance of the county order, Xu Sanbao and the others swaggered towards the direction of the Cangli Mansion.

When he was in Yuezhou that day, Pang Yue confessed that during the Northern Expedition, the military assets and property seized by the Yangwei Battalion could be distributed by the officers and soldiers in the battalion, and there was no need to hand them over for the time being. But at the same time, there was a strict definition of the concept of seizure, which must be all kinds of military assets and property in the name of the Qing army or the Manchu local government, and in addition, if the property of the gentry and common people was also classified as "seized" without authorization, it would be severely punished.

Xu Sanbao also had a preliminary understanding of Pang Yue's temperament of doing what he said and killing decisively, and he didn't dare to do it for the time being, but he was still very interested in sweeping the Cangli Mansion of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. No matter how much he grabbed, it was his own, which was so much to his liking, as if it was tailor-made for him.

Speaking of which, this is also one of the means that Pang Yue used to motivate Xu Sanbao and others. People like Xu Sanbao in the Yangwei camp have no concept of loyalty and righteousness, at least for the time being, and it is impossible for them to change their minds in a short period of time. At present, when it is time to employ people, it is too late to train them, and the best way is to grasp their weaknesses, satisfy their vanity as much as possible, and then lure them with profits, and if necessary, let them vote for more names. That way, at least in the short term, nothing will go wrong. This time, the Yangwei battalion was dispatched to open the way and surrender, and the standard of battlefield rewards was raised, and then the rule that they did not have to be handed over if they were captured, in order to do so.

In doing so, it seems that the rest of the battalions in Huguang Town will lose some of their capture, but in fact, this is not necessarily the case. Because of important towns such as Jingzhou, of course Xu Sanbao and others could not take it independently, and the Cangli Mansion Treasury also had its own soldiers from other battalions to receive it, and it was unlikely that they would have their share. As for some small counties along the way, how much silver can be compared to the grain storage depot? It doesn't hurt to give it to them.

Xu Sanbao's luck is good, the county official warehouse has just recently received a sum of autumn grain. Among them, there are thousands of stones of grain in stock, and there are also more than 1,000 taels of silver in the treasury, and copper coins are counted separately.

"All the money has been removed! All move to the ship! Send someone to watch the grain first. It is estimated that the army will have to rest here for a day or two, and then contact the grain store in the city later, and exchange the grain for cash! What the? Afraid that the rest of the battalions will come to rob it? What kind of birdheart are you here? Da Shuai is a man of words, how can he allow others to come nonsense? Xu Sanbao smiled happily and commanded.

Seeing Xu Sanbao's arrogant face, Yi Liankui was extremely disgusted and disgusted, and didn't say anything on his face. But in his heart, he scolded disdainfully: something!

Probably aware of Yi Liankui's unhappiness, Xu Sanbao snorted coldly, and piled up a little smile that didn't smile: "Brother Yi, don't worry." As the battalion officer of our battalion, I will distribute the seized property fairly. I won't let any of my brothers suffer. Even if the brothers of Yuezhou Shuiying had worked under the Tartars and fought with our Lao Xu, now they have worked together under the same banner. In my eyes, they are also like brothers. ”

I don't know if it's intentional or not. Xu Sanbao's words were affectionate on the surface, but in them, he was armed with a gun and a stick, and he "worked under the hands of the Tartars", and he "fought with our old Xu Ye", revealing the scars of the Yuezhou Water Camp in the Yangwei camp crisply, and he completely put himself in the heroic position of "heroically resisting the Tartars".

Don't look at Yi Liankui is quite deferential in front of Pang Yue, in fact, he is not a person to be messed with, if he is really like a clay man, he has no blood. At the beginning, he would not have been the capital of Yuezhou Water Camp. At this moment, when I heard Xu Sanbao say this, I was really angry in my heart. It's about to have a seizure.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Wang Xianling came over uninterestingly, laughing with him, but it was more ugly than crying, and he said again and again, half cautiously and half pleadingly: "Two lords, you can take all this grain, but this year, five hundred taels of treasury silver were borrowed from the big families in the city, and they should be levied by the government for the time being." Can you leave some for the lower officials? Otherwise, the Xiaguan's family has always been poor, and I am afraid that they will not be able to return, and the livelihood of the family will not be able to be maintained. Please also ask the two adults to be gracious! ”

Xu Sanbao glared at the bull's eye: "Fuck you!" You look at Lao Tzu and is good at bullying, isn't it? Still leaving you some? You old bastard is not ashamed, shave a money rat tail and give it to the Tartar as a dog, Lao Tzu didn't cut you with a knife, it's already a grace! You can't afford it, your whole family hasn't eaten or drunk about Lao Tzu's birds? Selling your children or going to the street to be called Hanako is your own business, and it should be your retribution for you old bastard! Get lost! ”

Wang Xianling trembled, knelt on the ground, and pleaded with Yi Liankui with a sad face: "This lord, Xia Guan was confused for a while, and he was forced to become the county official of the captive court because of the butcher's knife of the Tartar, and he still regrets it. Now that the Ming Dynasty has recovered the lost land, the lower officials have no shame to stay here anymore, so they resigned today and let the Marquis of Dingwu punish him. But the family of the lower official is innocent, if they can't pay off the hundreds of taels of silver, I'm afraid they really can't make a living! The lord beside you is jealous and hateful, and the lower official knows, but your lord, you should understand the lower official, at that time, the steel knife of the Tartar was held on his neck, and the lower official had to surrender. Please be gracious! ”

Yi Liankui was stunned for a moment before he reacted, kicked Wang Xian Ling, and scolded: "Get out of your mother!" I understand you ball! ”

Wang Xianling's words vaguely implied that Yi Liankui, like himself, had shaved his hair and combed his braids, and it could be said that he was also a fallen person at the end of the world, and he should understand his hardships better than Xu Sanbao. But he may not know that shaving his hair and combing his braids is a scar for Yi Liankui, and since the formation of the Yangwei Battalion, he has not suffered the ridicule of Xu Sanbao and others. And this scar has just been uncovered by Xu Sanbao, but Wang Xianling has to come up again to increase his strength, and the anger in Yi Liankui's heart really can't be suppressed.

Before Wang Xianling could get up, Yi Liankui stepped forward and kicked him down again, pulled out his waist knife with a "poof", and continued to scold: "You old bastard is pitiful now!" Since you are the first Jianli County Commander appointed by the Imperial Court, then the people of the county shaved their hair, was it a notice that you sent someone to post?! What is written on it, grandpa, I don't read it and I know, keep your head without hair, keep your hair without your head, right?! How many people in the county who refuse to shave their hair have you killed?! Don't say it's five hundred taels of silver, even five million taels or fifty million taels won't be able to atone for the sins of your old bastard! If you don't get out, grandpa will hack you alive!! ”

Wang Xianling was suddenly frightened, and even fled as if he was crawling and flying.

Just as Xu Sanbao and Yi Liankui were receiving the treasury of Cangli's mansion, the army had arrived near the city gate, and Pang Yue and Gao Yigong had already entered the city with some of their men and horses. (To be continued.) )
