"I am Liu Fei, the commander of Guangchangbo, there are people in the city who are in turmoil, and I am guarding this gate by the military order of Prince Yu and Guangchangbo, and those who do not have a military order are not allowed to pass!"

A general at the gate of the Great East shouted majestically to a group of about 100 elite soldiers.

The leader of this team of elite soldiers said angrily: "Ma, Lao Tzu was ordered by Prince Yu to go to Zhenhuai Gate to meet. ”

Liu Fei heard it and carefully identified it, and then said with a smile: "It turned out to be the uncle of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, misunderstanding, misunderstanding, the water washed the Dragon King Temple, you have always been invited!" ”

With a wave of his hand, the soldier behind him moved out of the way.

The army of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty had no doubts, and was in a hurry to be ordered to converge, and immediately drilled into the city gate hole.

But as soon as he entered, he felt that something was not right, and there was a large pile of corpses next to him.

He couldn't help but ask, "Why is that?" ”

Liu Fei followed closely: "This is the corpse of the rebels?" ”

Han Baqi Zuo Ling was deeply suspicious, and his hand touched the handle of the knife, but in an instant he felt a pain in his left armpit, and a knife had already stabbed in.

At the same time, he saw a flash of cold light, and his advancing soldiers, who were attacked at the same time, were the soldiers known as Guangchangbo in the doorway, and their spears pierced the side of their own soldiers almost at the same time.

"Mah, that's a lot of nonsense!"

Liu Fei pulled out his knife and threw the Han Eight Banner Leader aside, and his subordinates immediately lifted their corpses and threw them into the crowd, not blocking the way.

"Master Xie, there is another deal coming to the door!"

At this time, a soldier shouted in a low voice.

Liu Fei strode out and scolded the soldier: "Lao Tzu is Liu Fei, Guang Changbo's subordinate Qianzong, remember it for Lao Tzu, and he is screaming and beating you with a military stick!" ”

As he spoke, a group of soldiers ran forward to the city gate, and when they saw that the city gate was guarded by soldiers, they immediately stopped.

Liu Fei walked out a few steps alone and shouted loudly: "I am Liu Fei, the general manager of Guangchangbo, there are people in the city who are in turmoil, and I am guarding this gate under the orders of Prince Yu and Guangchangbo." No one is allowed to pass without a military order! ”

Outside the Dadong Gate, Zhao Kang was also confronting a group of Qing troops at this time.

"I am Liu Kang, the general manager of Guangchangbo, there are people in the city who are in turmoil, and I am guarding this gate by the order of Prince Yu and Guangchangbo. No one is allowed to pass without a military order! ”

But the response from the other side was a string of Ula bird language, which Zhao Kang couldn't understand at all.

I was immediately annoyed in my heart, and I was unlucky to run into the Eight Banners or the Eight Banners of Meng, if only the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty were good, Kuang entered the city gate. It's easy to solve.

Without waiting for Zhao Kang to say a second sentence, the other party had already pulled out a knife.

Zhao Kang didn't say a word, the whole army charged, and the other party had about a hundred people, and he had thousands of people.

There was no accident in the result of the battle, more than 100 Eight Banner soldiers were all killed, and the corpses were dragged into the city gate cave and hidden.

But no one dared to move lightly. The seizure of private possession was to be beheaded, Haizhou seized so many at that time, and everyone was given hundreds of taels of silver, but in the end, it was found that a person was beheaded for a few taels of silver in four games.

And in the army, it is impossible to keep secrets, and whoever takes the silver will always be exposed, no matter when. Once it is found out, it is a matter of losing the head, but if you don't hide it privately, you will end up with some of it.

So no one touched the bodies. I don't want to see how many things the Tartars have robbed, and if I can't help it, it's a bad thing.

Even if the recruit doesn't have this experience, if he wants to make some extra money, he will be immediately stopped by the officers who have experienced it, and if he can't get it, he will have to beat it up first.

After putting away the corpse. Zhao Kang continued to pretend to be Liu Liangzuo's subordinate Qianzong, leaning on the door and smiling to greet the Qing army from all walks of life.

What Zhao Kang didn't know was that Duoduo had helped them a lot, and after he fled in a hurry, he immediately asked the soldiers guarding the gate to rush to Dongguan Street and other areas where the Eight Banners were concentrated, holding his arrows, to pass the order, so that the scattered robbing soldiers heard the military order and immediately assembled at the Zhenhuai Gate.

As a result, these scattered Eight Banners did not dare to slack off, so scattered and rushed back, fortunately, the Eight Banners have always acted in Niulu, although they were scattered when they looted, but once they were greeted, they could quickly gather a Niulu, and life and battles were like this, so they could also assemble a team of 100 people, if they were replaced by those three or five groups of descendants, I am afraid that even ten people would be enough to choke together, and it would be impossible to return to help without an hour.

So under Duoduo's military order, one by one, the well-disciplined Eight Banners soldiers, one hundred and one hundred, converged to the two city gates like oil, and finally died very aggrieved under the swords of Zhao Kang and Xie Fei.

Governor's Palace.

Yang Chao is drinking tea, there are so many good things, although Duoduo himself did not come forward to rob, but his subordinates still obediently handed over more than half of the looting, of course, it is limited to the Eight Banners, and the soldiers have not yet had this consciousness and have no habit of surrendering for the time being.

Of course, the place where the Eight Banners robbed is not a level better than the surrender of the soldiers, and the places where the surrendered soldiers are basically slums, and they can be assigned to some places where craftsmen live, which is already considered lucky, and the Eight Banners, especially the Eight Banners, the land they are allocated are all fat and oily salt merchant gardens, which family is not a rich man with millions of family assets.

It's just that Yang Chao found that Duoduo only handed over more than five million taels of silver here, as well as a large number of pearls and jades and the like, either the Eight Banners soldiers did not grab the silver cellar of the Hao merchants, or they had not found it yet.

In fact, it is likely that the wealthy merchants have already run away, and the servants who stayed to watch the house did not know where the silver cellar was, so they couldn't grab it if they wanted to.

But there is no need to hide these jewels such as gold, jewelry, and jade, they are all daily necessities for their families, and if they are not taken away, they can only be snatched away by the Eight Banners.

In addition to these, other luxury goods are readily available, what is the Longjing of West Lake Shifeng, and there are many fine wines that have been cellared for 30 years.

Yang Chao found that a pot of tea in a small white jade jar, needless to say, is a good thing, just the flawless white jade jar is worth thousands of taels of silver, can the tea be worse?

So I asked someone to drink tea with her, and this person drank this is Hangzhou's Longjing, or the authentic best of Shifeng.

"Miss Wei is in good taste!"

Yang Chao will never be able to drink what kind of tea this is, and it is already good to be able to drink green tea.

Wei Shuzhen shook her head and said, "Without him, only Shuer!" ”

"Young lady, what do you think?"

Ge Nenniang was also there, not that Yang Chao wanted her to follow, but that she didn't leave at all, she said that she could dance an eighteen-pound big knife and wear a double-layer armor. Eighteen kinds of martial arts are proficient, why can't they kill the enemy together.

So they went into the city with the army and fought together, and they had already killed several people. Seeing her murderous appearance without blinking, Yang Chao had nothing to say, this woman was fiercer than his most elite soldiers, except for the machismo in his heart that a woman should not hold a knife, Yang Chao couldn't find any reason to drive her away.

So after the military affairs were assigned. Yang Chao immediately led his troops back to the Governor's Mansion and resolutely brought Ge Nenniang over.

Ge Nenniang refused at first, his father was killed by the Eight Banners, and she naturally wanted to kill a few more Tartars to avenge her if she had this opportunity.

But Yang Chao asked her whether she came to protect herself or take revenge, and Ge Nenniang honestly said that she was protecting Yang Chao.

So she could only follow Yang Chao honestly.

Ge Nenniang took several sips and shook her head: "I can't drink it." ”

Not every official lady knows everything, Ge Nenniang's family is just a family of military generals, and you can find a master to teach you piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. But the taste of daily life is not something that can not be cultivated by several generations, and the so-called three generations of wealth and nobility know how to dress and eat, which is not a joke.

And the Wei family is an official eunuch family, and they don't know how rich they have been for generations, Wei Shuzhen's qin, chess, calligraphy and painting are not to mention, that's just basic skills, like what kind of clothing and taste are not much better than the girls of Qinhuaihe.

"Uncle Yang counterattacked back so quickly, it really surprised the little woman. The little woman substituted tea for wine. Dare to toast the uncle, and hope that the uncle will not dislike it! ”

Wei Shuzhen poured another cup of tea, the tea was brewed by her, and it was brewed very slowly. Make sure that the shade is appropriate before drinking.

Yang Chao took the teacup with a smile: "Miss Wei serves tea, dare to disobey her fate." ”

Yang Chao drank it in one gulp, a mouthful of fragrance, and it seemed that it felt that the brewing was not the same, as for what was different. But I can't taste it.

Wei Shuzhen lowered her head and chuckled, drinking tea is not a cow drink, and she didn't pay attention to it.

Suddenly sighed: "Uncle Zhongyi has counterattacked, and the little girl's wish has been fulfilled, so she can bring good news to her father." ”

Wei Shuzhen still wants to be martyred!

Yang Chao called her to drink tea, just to dissolve her emotions, it is better to die than to live, in the face of this kind of upheaval in the family and country, women are involuntarily, if they are out of control, how many people will have to die.

Yang Chao couldn't help but persuade: "Miss Wei has a good life, why should she take her own life?" ”

Wei Shuzhen said: "There is no love in this life!" ”

Yang Chao understands in his heart that mourning is greater than heart death, and how important it is to lose control for ancient people, especially women.

Xiucai Jinshi surrendered, they didn't say anything themselves, but if the woman in the family was insulted, they had to write a big book, if they didn't commit suicide, it would be like the sky had fallen.

Yang Chao sighed: "It's a pity to have such a good time." ”

Wei Shuzhen said: "As a woman, I can't pick my shoulders, I can't lift my hands, and I don't have the talent to serve the country, and I don't have the honor left, what a pity!" ”

Women under the religious system have strong self-esteem and lose their reputation, and they feel from the bottom of their hearts that they are a rotten thing, and there is really no point in living.

But Wei Shuzhen's words made Yang Chao move, she just seemed to feel that survival was meaningless, so finding something meaningful for her would save her life, she lacked a motivation to survive.

Thinking of this, Yang Chao said tentatively: "Miss Wei must not be so contemptuous, who said that women are inferior to men." Don't talk about others, let's just say that we are young girls, and we can cut people with a big knife. ”

When Ge Nenniang heard about herself, she was proud, but her face turned red.

Wei Shuzhen smiled: "The little girl doesn't have the ability of Miss Ge!" ”

Yang Chao said with a smile: "You have other skills, great skills, not only to fight a war, but also to have food and salary." ”

Wei Shuzhen shook her head and said: "Although the Wei family has a little money, the uncles and brothers are still there, but the little woman can't be the master." ”

Yang Chao said with a smile: "It's not that you want the Wei family to raise donations, but if Miss Wei comes forward and can raise millions of taels of military funds for you, I don't know if Miss Wei is willing to do it?" ”

Wei Shuzhen didn't believe it at all: "Uncle Zhongyi laughed." ”

Yang Chao said seriously: "This is not a joke. Miss Wei is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and etiquette and music articles, but she is not lost to the famous prostitutes of Qinhuaihe. ”

Wei Shuzhen jumped up suddenly, her face flushed: "Is Uncle Zhongyi laughing at the little girl's intemperance and cheapness?" ”

After speaking, he sneered: "If Uncle Zhongyi thinks that the little girl can raise some military funds by selling it to the Qinglou, then Uncle Zhongyi will ask for it, and the little woman will not dare to disobey, but the little woman will never steal to pick up customers." ”

This woman is too sensitive.

Yang Chao shook his head and said: "It's not to sell you, it's not to let you sell yourself, it's to let you sell things!" As for what it is, I won't tell you first. Just say if you want to! ”

Wei Shuzhen was suddenly embarrassed, she overreacted, but her heart was too complicated during this time.

In this case, the little woman has an unshirkable responsibility. If you can help your uncle, on the day when you see your uncle's northern expedition to the Central Plains and the recovery of one hundred and two rivers and mountains, the little woman will also have the face to face her father's spirit in the sky. But if the uncle makes fun of the little girl, although the little woman can't take the uncle, what about it. But if it spreads out, I'm afraid that Uncle Yu won't look good on his face. ”

Yang Chao said: "Don't worry. But I'm afraid you're going to have a hard time. I won't tell you the truth, my concubine went to the Wa Kingdom last year, and sold hundreds of thousands of taels of commercial goods in the Wa Kingdom, and every tael of silver was a knife in the hands of my soldiers and a grain in his mouth. ”

Wei Shuzhen's face changed slightly, and Yang Chao's expression changed, letting her concubine go to the Wa Kingdom, what kind of person is this. It's too characterless, and there is no heart and liver.

It's just that she didn't say it, but she was thinking in her heart that if she changed to herself and went to the Wa Kingdom, it didn't seem to be a bad thing to earn hundreds of thousands of taels of silver for the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty.

Seeing that Wei Shuzhen had rekindled hope, Yang Chao said goodbye to her appropriately. Then I went to deal with military affairs.

The battle situation keeps coming back, and it's all normal at the moment.

Yang Chao asked Xie Fei and Zhao Kang to each lead 1,000 soldiers to block the large and small east gates, which were the necessary places for the east and west cities to pass through, and most of the Qing army was gathered in the east city at this time. To go to the Zhenhuai Gate, you must pass through these two gates.

Therefore, leaving Zhao Kang and Xie Fei to guard, one to kill the other, the Qing army was like a refueling tactic, just sending them to death.

In addition to these two gates, in the middle of the old city. There are also eight stone arch bridges on the Wen River, which connects the north and south.

From the northernmost Kui Bridge to the southernmost Yiji Bridge, there were 300 soldiers guarding each bridge, which was equivalent to interrupting the traffic between the two sides of the bridge.

There were also ten commanders, a total of 4,000 men, who consulted in the streets of Xicheng, and killed the soldiers when they encountered them.

Xicheng is an old city, inhabited by gentry, although not as rich as the merchants of Dongcheng, but much stronger than ordinary people, most of them are wealthy families.

Therefore, it is impossible for the entire Xicheng to be plundered by the surrendered troops, but the looting of the territory of the Ten Thousand Han Eight Banners and the Meng Eight Banners, Yang Chao has inquired about these situations clearly, and any one of the surrendered troops is clear about the division of these territories, after all, Duoduo has emphasized to them many times the territory of each army, and does not let them cross the border to plunder.

Dealing with the 10,000 Menghan Eight Banners that were scattered and looted, Yang Chao dispatched a strict formation of 4,000 troops, and the odds of victory should be very large, and at this time, the Eight Banners of all departments actually began to move towards Zhenhuai Gate, but the traffic was blocked by Yang Chao, so they could not assemble too large-scale.

And they didn't know what was going on at all, they only knew that they hurried over and assembled according to the military order, so they didn't waste time restoring the formation, basically the same as where the city gate was, at most about a hundred people, but in the face of batch after batch of ironclad elites who intercepted and killed them along the streets.

Because of the plunder, most of them did not wear armor, so their fate was already doomed, and most of them died helplessly under the charge of a dozen or dozens of ironclad soldiers who were waiting for four hundred.

Yang Chao himself only had more than 1,000 people around him, so he sat in the Governor's Palace, the first thing was to protect the property here, and the second was to let his subordinates rest and recuperate.

These more than 1,000 people are veterans, the most elite veterans, among whom they have not participated in the bloody battle in Haizhou, but also those who are strong in Haizhou and have experienced the most bloody battles.

Leave these people to rest, and then it's time for them to do their most important work.

An hour later, the general corps, who had completed the clearance operation according to the scheduled task, began to return to the governor's palace to resume his life.

These men divided each of them into a larger street in the west of the city, and then from east to west, or from south to north, killed people on sight, just one back and forth, and then returned to the governor's palace.

They cleared the main streets, and most of them were concentrated in the prosperous areas on both sides of the Wen River, and the territory robbed by the Eight Banners soldiers was also mainly concentrated in this area.

Then it's time for Yang Chao to attack.

When the last one returned the corps to the Governor's Mansion to rest, Yang Chao immediately set off with more than a thousand elites, targeting Zhenhuaimen.

Zhao Kang and Xie Fei both sent back information, saying that Duoduo was in Zhenhuaimen.

Yang Chao plans to have a king-to-king relationship with Duoduo and destroy him with his own hands! (To be continued.) )
