Zhan Yuan stared at Zhuang Yingchang and Zhang Wentai and said: "Lao Zhuang, Lao Zhang, it's not that the three of us are suspicious, if Kong Youde's rebellious army captures Dengzhou, and the Dengzhou Navy Division is occupied by him, so the government and the opposition have nothing to say." However, if the Pingdu Prefecture Flood Camp robs these many warships during the rebellion, no matter what the purpose, how will you explain it to the emperor and the ministers of the court in the future? Could it be that you Pingdu Prefecture Flood Camp can still keep these boats for yourself, even if you Pingdu Prefecture Flood Camp can keep these boats for yourself, you two also know how much investment it takes to afford a sailor, can you afford it? Do you have a place to moor so many ships in Pingdu Prefecture? ”

Zhuang Yingchang and Zhang Wentai actually had no idea about Feng Jian's judgment that Kong Youde's rebellious troops captured Dengzhou City, but the two of them were responsible for persuasion, but they couldn't show their cowardice no matter what.

Zhang Wentai was more anxious, and said: "If the three of you don't want to make this fortune, and you don't want to get this opportunity, I will leave without saying a word to Lao Zhuang......

Zhuang Yingchang gave Zhang Wentai a look, and said, "The three must have received the news that Kong Youde and Li Jiucheng led their troops to rebel. ”

Seeing that the three of them nodded, Zhuang Yingchang continued: "Kong Youde's rebellious soldiers have conquered Linyi, Lingxian, Shanghe, Deping, and Qingcheng five prefectures and counties in seven days, burning and plundering everywhere, and now they are leading their troops to Dengzhou at night. ”

The three of them changed color on their faces and began to realize that Kong Youde's rebellious soldiers were not making a small fight, but really brought trouble.

Zhuang Yingchang continued: "According to the news obtained by our garrison lord, Governor Sun has mobilized the general soldier Zhang Tao to lead the Liao soldiers and the Dengzhou general soldier Zhang Keda to lead the Dengzhou main battalion to guard outside Dengzhou City, ready to fight to the death with Kong Youde's rebellious soldiers!" ”

Hearing this, the three of them looked relieved. Niu Liang interjected: "Isn't this enough, the army led by the two general soldiers of Dengzhou City is several times larger than the chaotic soldiers." The rebellion will surely be quelled. ”

Zhuang Yingchang said: "Don't hide the news of more than three people, all of them are the news sent back by the spies scattered by our garrison lords, and the rebels will coerce the local young people into the rebel army everywhere they go. Now there are tens of thousands. We, the garrison, are also preparing for a rainy day. If Dengzhou City is lost, we can lead the sailors to escape from the hands of the rebels in time, not only from the suffering of the slavery of the rebels. For a few adults, a few of them have made a fortune because of this, why not! ”

Lan Zhengji, who had not spoken, smacked his lips and said: "In the final analysis, it is your state flood camp garrison officer who has set his sights on the hundred boats of the Navy Division, and wants to take advantage of the chaos to get hold of our Navy Division's big boats." ”

Speaking of which, Zhuang Yingchang and Zhang Wentai really don't have the potential to be lobbyists, but the three people in front of them take the initiative.

Zhang Wentai was more impatient: "You don't have to worry about Lao Lan, I'll only ask three." If you really want Kong Youde's rebels to capture Dengzhou, do you three want to make this windfall! ”

Niu Liang's blessed boats have a bad life, they not only have to support their families, but also usher in all kinds of people.

Sometimes the military salary has not been paid for several months, and the military salary has to take care of a large group of subordinates under him, so it is good to honor the boss!

Two thousand taels of silver caught up with their ten-year military salary, and the three of them were already happy in their hearts, and this matter was not much risk to them, as long as the chaotic troops could not capture Dengzhou. They didn't have to flee in a boat.

Even if the rebels capture Dengzhou, they flee by boat, and report to the court afterwards, maybe they will be rewarded by the court, which is really a good calculation!

The reason why the three of them pushed back was just to get more benefits. Now I see that Zhang Wentai has some signs of turning his face, but it is not good to handle it again.

Niu Liang glanced at the silver ticket on the table, and answered: "Lao Zhuang and Lao Zhang, don't talk about it." We've all heard about the deeds of your garrison lords, and we've heard of people who even the emperor has praised! You've only been following him for over four months. So obedient to him, it seems that your garrison is very unusual. That's it. The three of us agreed to get involved. ”

Zhuang Yingchang breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Don't worry, our garrison has clear grievances, as long as you keep your promises and act according to the agreement, we can ensure that you have a good future, official positions, money, and women are indispensable." Let's talk about ugly things ahead, if that person has bad intentions and intends to be ineffective against our state flood camp, not to mention our garrison adults, even our state flood camp will never give up! ”

Niu Liang and the three of them looked at each other a few times, and said: "We used to be colleagues in the sailors, and now we are under the grace of your guards, so we can only concentrate on handling this matter well!" Please tell you, Lord Garrison, that the three of us are willing to take this matter. ”

Zhuang Yingchang picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "In this way, Lao Zhang and I will toast you on behalf of the garrison!" And please come to the ship for a moment. ”

At this moment, in the Denglai Governor's Office, after getting the news of the rebellion of the Liao soldiers led by General Kong Youde to the headquarters, the six departments and rooms that had been sealed and stopped working were urgently ordered by the governor to return to the office.

"Kong Youde only raises an immature white-eyed wolf, the governor trusts him so much, who would have thought that he would stab the governor Sun in turn, where is he going to put Sun Daren!"

"Kong Youde's trouble, our Denglai will definitely be affected, the governor and others can change places and still be officials, but it has hurt us little people, the court has reappointed a governor, and our pockets will be deflated again!"

The officials of the governor's yamen had different thoughts and gathered together to whisper, and no one noticed that there were a few strangers dressed as ordinary officials in the official office.

On the surface, they are looking for someone to do something, but secretly they are looking at the terrain and roads in the official office.

Sun Yuanhua, the governor of Denglai, sat in the back hall of the official office, his face was solemn, and his staff members sat around him, and the future and fate of the staff were closely related to the governor, and they were also deeply worried about the future of the governor.

Sun Yuanhua turned his head and asked a middle-aged Confucian student in his forties sitting next to him: "Qingping, I want to add a reply to Lord Shoufu, just say that Benfu has been arranged, and the rebels will soon be subdued. In addition, send someone to send 100 Dongzhu, 20 catties of wild ginseng, 100 mink skins, and 5,000 taels of silver to the Shoufu Lord's house, and this matter must be handled quickly! ”

"Do as your lord commands." This Confucian student, who was called Qingping by Sun Yuanhua, bowed down and agreed.

He continued: "Your Excellency, please forgive me for speaking bluntly, now all factions in the court have written to impeach your lord, believing that your lord is the culprit of this rebellion. The faction of Shiwen Tiren, the second assistant of the cabinet, took advantage of the opportunity of Wang Daochun, the governor of Shandong, and Yu Yinggui, the governor of Shaanxi Province, to impeach the adults repeatedly, and pointed the spearhead of this incident at Lord Zhou Yanru, the first assistant of the governor. Trying to take advantage of the opportunity to bring down Shousuke-sama! The Governor should cheer up and fight to the death with such crumbs! ”

Sun Yuanhua rubbed his forehead dejectedly and said: "Qingping, we both have the friendship of fellow villagers with Lord Zhou, and we rely on Lord Zhou to take care of us, so we can't do things only according to our own preferences." ”

Saying that, Sun Yuanhua's face turned to resentment and said: "Hateful, Yu Yinggui said in the impeachment chapter that it was not Kong Youde who instructed the Dengzhou soldiers to rebel, but my Sun Yuanhua; It was not my Sun Yuanhua who contributed to Kong Youde's rebellion, but Lord Zhou Yanru, the first assistant. ”

Qingping and the staff present shouted and scolded Yu Yinggui for being shameless.

Sun Yuanhua sighed and said: "Thanks to the Emperor Shengming, in his recital, he refuted his 'wanton slander and blasphemy', and ordered this thief to be demoted by three levels as a punishment. Wen Tiren wanted to grab the position of the first assistant, and tried all kinds of means, but in the end, Lord Zhou's position of the first assistant was not done well! ”

Qing Ping nodded and said: "Later Sheng thinks that there is a first assistant in the imperial court to take care of him, and the top priority is to quickly eliminate Kong Youde's chaotic army and control the unfavorable situation to a minimum." ”

Sun Yuanhua said confidently: "Benfu has ordered the general soldier Zhang Tao to lead the Liao soldiers and the Dengzhou general soldier Zhang Keda to lead the Dengzhou battalion to guard outside Dengzhou City, the men and horses of the two general soldiers are several times that of Kong Youde's rebellious soldiers, and the Liao soldiers led by Zhang Tao are even more elite soldiers in a hundred battles, and it is not a problem to annihilate Kong Youde's rebellious soldiers in one fell swoop!" ”

Qingping suggested: "My lord, Mr. Zhang's troops are all Liao soldiers, and Kong Youde's rebellious soldiers are also Liao soldiers, it is best to let Mr. Zhang persuade Kong Youde's rebellious soldiers to abandon their weapons and surrender, and our soldiers will take them down without blood, so that the governor can also have less to bear." ”

Sun Yuanhua sighed and said: "Hey, Qingping, you don't know, since July this year, Huang Taiji, the leader of Dongnu, first sent troops to besiege Dalinghe City, and in November, he joined the tribes of Eastern and Western Mongolia to divide their troops from Xifengkou, Longjingkou, Da'ankou and other passes into the hinterland of Daming to plunder, Zhao Shujiao, Mangui and other general soldiers died in battle. The emperor and the ministers of the court were in a hurry, and suddenly Kong Youde led the troops to rebel, and the chaotic soldiers burned and looted all the way, making the county government uneasy. This just gives the emperor and the ministers of the court an excuse to shirk their responsibilities, even if Benfu surrenders Kong Youde's rebellious soldiers, it is impossible to escape the blame, and the position of this governor cannot be done! ”

Qing Ping hurriedly said to Sun Yuan: "Your Excellency doesn't need to worry too much, as long as you quickly quell this rebellion and arrest the culprit, the first assistant Zhou Ge Lao in the court, there will always be something to take care of your lord." ”

Sun Yuanhua said with a depressed face: "Qingping is reasonable, there is Lord Shoufu here, and the official is not in the official position, but now he is angry and hateful about Kong Youde's rebellion, Mao Wenlong was killed, and when he was in danger, Kong Youde and other Dongjiang Liao people came to defect, Benfu treated him so kindly, I never thought that he would stab me in the back." Hey, it's the old man who is dizzy and doesn't know anyone! ”

Dengzhou Sailor Battalion, Pingdu Prefecture Flood Camp Dafu Ship Feng Jian cabin, Zhuang Yingchang and Zhang Wentai sat under Feng Jian.

Feng Jian said with a smile: "So you two former colleagues promised to cooperate with us to drive away the sailor's ship when the rebels came." ”！！ (To be continued......)
