Thinking of this, Pei Yan admired Lord Futai even more. www.biquge.info It turned out that Lord Futai released the news to tempt the Japanese to come to Nanqiao Wharf to loot, just to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger.

If these wealthy businessmen have acquaintances, they will disband these smuggling forces on their own, and the so-called "woe trouble" will be solved. If these wealthy businessmen don't know each other, then the end is the beheaded widows at Nanqiao Wharf.

The governor has the power to cut first and then play, and Lord Futai is the order of the Son of Heaven, so naturally there is no trust problem.

Almost all the officials in Nanzhi and Zhejiang Province knew that the ravages were due to the collusion of businessmen and widows, but everyone regarded it as not seeing, and the Lord Futai was really admirable in this regard.

"General Pei, this official can only make a general decision, and the specific implementation must be General Lao Pei."

Pei Yan didn't even dare to say it. The other party is the governor of Nanzhi who was ordered by the Son of Heaven, and he is unspeakably expensive, he is just a five-grade thousand households responsible for training the new army, and the difference in status is too great.

Don't say that there is a difference in status, that is, how can civil officials of the same rank take military attachés in their eyes?

The civil officials are arrogant and arrogant, which is also the reason why Pei Yan does not like to deal with civil officials.

Xie Shen is an exception, and Wang Shouren is the second.

These two people made Pei Yan's impression of civil officials greatly changed, and it turned out that there were good people among civil officials.

For Wang Shouren, it is indeed necessary to rely on Pei Yan, because the combat effectiveness of the new army is much higher than that of the general guard army.

This can be clearly seen from the battle of Nanqiao Pier.

The river officials and soldiers were at a loss in the face of the murderous Japanese invaders, and if Pei Yan hadn't led his troops to arrive, they didn't know what would have happened.

The flintlock pistol is indeed sharp, Wang Shouren has seen it when he was in Beijing, and this time he admires its power.

There is another point that Wang Shouren is worried about. That is, will the local officials and military or the government collude with the Japanese bandits?

You must know that the number of Japanese soldiers is less than that of the official army, why do you beat the official army every time? It would be too far-fetched to explain it by mere coincidence.

Wang Shouren thinks that there may really be something unsavvy in this.

After all, these robbers are smugglers raised by wealthy local businessmen, and the local wealthy businessmen are big taxpayers. It doesn't matter whether it's a county or a government, it's all supported by these rich businessmen. If these wealthy businessmen had hinted at the government and offered a large sum of gold and silver, the government might not have turned a blind eye.

After all, it is a long-standing problem. Why should things that can't be solved by the ex be solved when they come here?

Magistrates are all reappointed every three years, and as soon as the term of office is up, they pat their butts and leave, so why bother to make trouble with local rich businessmen and affect the evaluation of officials?

As for the imperial court, because of its mindset, it is not strange to see the incompetence of the locality.

If there is really a capable general in the place, and there are back and forth with the Japanese invaders, I am afraid that the court will feel uncomfortable.

The new army is different, they were recruited, they do not have the scruples of professional soldiers in the guard, they don't have to look at the face of the local government, and daring to fight is exactly what Wang Shouren needs.

If Wang Shouren wants to make a difference in the southeast, he must rely on these new armies.

Counting on those guards who are rotten to the bone is simply a fool's dream.

"General Pei has also worked hard, let's go back and rest first. If there is a new plan, this official will inform General Pei in time. ”

Pei Yan nodded, hugged his fist at Wang Shouren and said, "The last general will obey the order!" ”

After Pei Yan left, Wang Shouren frowned and shook his head.

The situation is more complicated than he thought. Originally, he thought that he could catch a few alive, but who would have thought that these wouldn't care whether they were real or fake wouldn't be able to fight to the death, and none of them would beg for life.

The clue to man's death is completely broken. Wang Shouren can't ask the painter to paint the portraits of the heads of the Japanese Kou one by one, and then go to the whole Songjiang and even Nanzhi to compare them one by one, right?

This shows that these wealthy businessmen still have some ability to buy people's hearts.

If his judgment was correct, the collusion between officials, businessmen, and widows led to the warlords becoming stubborn diseases and long-term illnesses.

Now that we know where the symptoms are, it's time to prescribe the right medicine.

"Lord Futai, Lord Ren of Huating County asks to see you."

A relative came to report and made Wang Shouren jump out of meditation.

He waved his hand and said, "Invite him in." ”

Speaking of which, the idea of using Kampot as bait to lure the Japanese to take the bait was still Ren Yanbin's idea, and he made a great contribution to this matter.

Ren County Ling obviously also heard about the victory at Nanqiao Wharf, and as soon as he entered the yahall, he smiled and said: "Congratulations to Lord Futai, you have made a great contribution to the imperial court." ”

"Oh? What is the merit of this official? ”

Wang Shouren said with a smile as he stroked his beard.

"Naturally, it's the work of leveling the widows. As soon as Lord Futai arrived, he killed more than 100 Japanese robbers, which was something that had never happened before. The local people have been suffering from the Japanese for a long time, and being able to behead a few levels is already a great achievement. This time, the adults beheaded more than 100 people, which was naturally a great achievement. ”

This Ren Yanbin is very well-informed.

Wang Shouren smiled and said nothing, which made Ren Xianling feel very uncertain.

What does Lord Futai mean, is it because his sycophants are not in place?

No, Ren Yanbin had rehearsed many times in advance before coming, and the effect should be first-class.

Ren Xianling's heart was empty, so he had to ask tentatively: "Lord Futai, don't you think that this credit is not big enough?" ”

"It's not, it's just that this plan was issued by the county order, how can this official take it for himself and ask the court for credit?"

Hearing this, the county magistrate breathed a sigh of relief.

"Lord Futai's words are wrong, although this plan is from a humble position, but the specific arrangements are from the hands of adults. If the Battle of Nanqiao had not been carefully arranged by adults, how could it have been so successful? If the adults are not able to receive this service, then the lowly position will be ashamed and die. ”

Tsk, this Ren county order is really a set of sycophants. The key is that others can almost do it, but Ren County Ling is photographed until the sky is dark, the sun and the moon are dark, and the face does not change color and the heart does not beat.

"How can this official have such a great credit as you say."

Wang Shouren smiled bitterly: "It should be your credit, the official will not rob it, and after a while, the official will write a recital to ask for credit for the generals, and the county order should be the first credit." ”

Hearing this, Ren Yanbin was a little hesitant. He was a little confused about Wang Shouren's true meaning.

What Shangguan said is sometimes true and false, false and real. If there are things you can't disbelieve, and you can't believe them all.

Take the matter of Pingwei as an example, he doesn't believe that Wang Shouren doesn't value credit at all, but it doesn't seem like Wang Shouren just pretending to be a gesture. Maybe Wang Shouren doesn't want to take the credit alone.

Ren Yanbin's ability to comprehend people's hearts has reached the realm, and he paused and said: "Thank you for your love, but Lord Pingwei must be the first merit." It is enough to attach a name to the lowly position, otherwise the lowly position will not dare to accept it. ”
