After Liang Hong returned to Beijing, Liu Jin immediately took him into the palace, summoned the cabinet and the six ministries and nine secretaries, and publicly accused the Bazhou Xiangma thief who was called by the adults to be arrogant and untamed, and refused to be an official, and could not abide by the constraints of military discipline, so he rebelled. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info These people are familiar with the situation of the military camp, attack and kill the anti-theft camp garrison children, seize the armory, and occupy Bazhou City. That's what we know so far."

In front of him, it was a person dressed as an ordinary soldier, and the emperor ordered Yang Ling to be placed under house arrest, and this holy decree still had to be obeyed, so Yang Ling's spies had no choice but to put on Song Xiaoai's officer and soldier costumes and sneak in to report the situation.

Cheng Qiyun frowned and asked, "Zheng Heyi, what is the situation in Bazhou?" ”

The spies in front of him, Zheng Heyi said with a difficult face: "Second gear, I just sent someone to Bazhou to investigate, as for what the situation is, I don't know yet." ”

Cheng Qiyun said unhappily: "I have handed over all the affairs of the capital to you, why can't you even inquire about such a little news?" ”

Zheng Heyi said nervously: "The second gear, there are about 3,500 of our capable people who have separated from the inner factory, most of whom have been transferred by you to Liaodong, Jiangnan and southern Fujian, and there are less than 200 people left in Hebei, most of which are used to listen to news in Beijing and ensure the safety of the country, and the small Bazhou has not taken care of it."

Cheng Qiyun knew that he was telling the truth, and said that there were only more than 2,000 capable forces in the inner factory, even if there were 20,000, and the huge country would be sprinkled, there would be no one to be seen, and the small Bazhou had never been the focus of their attention. In addition, after the three factories and one guard fell into the hands of Liu Jin, the inner factory must be careful and careful in the area near Gyeonggi in Hebei Province to prevent this mysterious force from being revealed.

It's just that he has never taken Bazhou in his eyes, and he can't be an unpredictable prophet. Why weirdos? Now that Yang Ling is under house arrest because he is annoyed, some of the blame is inhuman, so he just snorted slightly and did not say anything more.

Yang Ling smiled mildly and said, "Don't blame Xiao Zheng, who would have thought that Liu Jin and I were playing Tai Chi here, and a civil uprising in Xiao Bazhou would actually affect the battle situation?" ”

With a slight smile, he muttered again: "The return of the horse thieves should have been properly arranged, and I have tried my best to disperse them, but they are all natives of Bazhou, and there are only hundreds of people in total.

Alas, Zhang Mao is worth hundreds of millions, and Liu Liu, Liu Qi, Xing Laohu and others also have families. After they have been convicted of the case and appointed to official positions, will they rebel with a mere few hundred people and more than 1,000 people because they do not abide by military discipline? There must be something different inside. If I can find a reason for their rebellion, maybe that will be the reason for me to get away with it."

Zheng Heyi said movingly: "In this case, I will go to Bazhou in person immediately, and I must hear the real news."

Yang Ling nodded, shook his head again, closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, and sighed lightly: "If I could stay in Bazhou for a few more days, there would be no such turmoil, but unfortunately, people are not as good as heaven, the Empress Dowager died suddenly, leaving me only three days, I want to rush within three days, dispose of all the corrupt officials in Bazhou, and recruit the horse thieves in Bazhou."

Alas, he then went to Beijing to deploy and make every effort to deal with Liu Jin. In the middle, there is a farce of choosing a horse, a little Bazhou...... Who would have thought that the little Bazhou would poke a big leak."

He glanced at Zheng Heyi and said, "You don't have to leave in a hurry, there will be two more people coming in a while, wait for me to arrange it, you go with them."

After a while, Song Xiaoai brought two soldiers in and said, "Guogong."

Although the two soldiers were dressed ordinarily, they looked extraordinary and magnificent, which did not match an ordinary soldier. One with a white face and clear eyebrows is Wu Han, a cavalry captain, and the other is burly, a little more calm than Wu Han, it is Xu Tai, the chief officer of the four armies outside the Beijing Division.

The two of them took a step forward and bowed to salute: "Humble Counselor Guogong".

Yang Ling nodded, smiled at the two generals and said, "You sit, you don't have to be formal."

The two sat down, and Yang Ling first said to Xu Tai: "I heard that the emperor ordered you to lead troops to Bazhou to quell the rebellion?" ”

Xu Tai's waist was straight, his hands were pressed to his knees, and he was completely a military temperament, and replied respectfully: Do you know what the deputy marshal commanded? ”

The commander of the four armies, the mighty general Zhu Shou, is the current emperor, and the deputy marshal is Yang Ling, but these two marshals have had a lot of things recently, and the four armies outside are nothing serious, just daily training matters, so they rarely come to teach. Lian Delu, the former second-tier head of the inner factory, is now in the Liaodong Army, and Peng Jizu is a deputy general under Xu Tai.

Yang Ling said: "The people of Bazhou are fierce, the people are still martial, and for a hundred years have been raising horses for the imperial court, the people are extremely exquisite, I have seen more than 100 horse thieves charging into battle, momentum like a rainbow, as I expected, the combat power is only higher than the Tatar iron cavalry outside the pass. Although they are few in number, they are familiar with the local terrain and characters, and you must not be careless when you go to suppress bandits."

Ma Tai really didn't pay attention to the thousands of rebellious people, and when he heard Yang Ling's careful instructions, he hurriedly said: "Obey orders." The emperor mobilized the four foreign armies, and personally summoned the lowly post, and if he wanted the lowly position, he would put down the rebellion as soon as possible, and many senior officials in the court and the central government accused the deputy marshal of tolerating and raising adultery and luring wolves into the house, and demanded that the emperor hold the deputy marshal accountable.

The deputy marshal was relieved, and according to his humble position, the emperor was so cautious and used the elite of the Beijing army to quell more than 1,000 rebellious people, just to calm down the rebellion as soon as possible, reduce the impact of this matter, and turn the big matter into a small one, so as to avoid the responsibility of the national prince. If you go to Bazhou with a humble position, you will definitely do your best to quell the rebellion as soon as possible and rescue the deputy marshal from misfortune."

Yang Ling nodded, pointed at Zheng Heyi and said: "This is one of my subordinates, you also take it, I suspect that Bazhou Xiangma is descending and rebelling, there must be a hidden secret, you go here, try to find out the reason."

Cheng Qiyun's eyes moved, and she interjected: "My lord, if there is really something hidden in the rebellion of the horse thieves, when you look for some people who know to come back to Beijing as witnesses, if the humble position is not bad, Liang Hong should be the one who knows the truth." If the horse thieves rebel, there is no hidden secret, such as being a thief and an official, being despised and coerced by others, and extorting money, this kind of thing is not uncommon, since Liu Jin wants to use this as an excuse to attack adults, he will not be able to win the trust of people if he has no evidence."

Yang Ling woke up with a word, pondered for a moment, and said, "Yes, what you said is reasonable." Xu Tai, Bazhou Tuiguan Hua Yu, is upright and loyal, if the Xiangma thief is indeed blackmailed and forced to rebel, you can invite Hua Tuiguan back to Beijing as a witness."

It is said that Bazhou City has been lost, and the life of Huatui officials is not yet known. If Huatui official has unfortunately died in the line of duty, who can still use it? ”

"Those officials are at both ends of the tail, now that I am under house arrest, Liu Jin is in the limelight again, I am afraid that those officials may not dare to come forward to testify. I have a great kindness to Mu Jing, a student in Gu'an County, if this person knows the details, he will definitely help me, but unfortunately he may not know about Bazhou...... By the way, and Jiang Bin! Jiang Bin is my old friend, and he is also Zhang Mao's cousin, he once helped me persuade Zhang Mao to surrender, and Zhang Mao rebelled again, he may know the reason.

This man is not expected to rebel, and there is no news of this man's rebellion in the news that comes back, so act on the opportunity, if you can find him, it will be a favorable witness, and if this person is not to be found, you will have to act on the opportunity."

Seeing Xu Tai take Zheng Heyi out, Wu Han arched his hand and said, "My lord, what do you need to do with your humble duties?" ”

The relaxed look on Yang Ling's face disappeared, and he stood up and said in a deep voice: "Han, there is really a big thing for you to do this time. Liu Jin has brought disaster to the country and the people, and the harm is very serious, whether you can get rid of this traitor or not depends on you! ”

A trace of fierceness flashed across Wu Han's face, and a murderous chill oozed from the candlelight, and he replied awe-inspiringly: "My lord, I understand my humble duties. The rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband, whether it is for the sake of the Ming Dynasty or for the safety of adults, except for Liu Jin, I Wu Han have no hesitation! I don't know when the adults want me to do it, Han is so desperate that he will assassinate Liu Jin's old thief under the sword! ”

Yang Ling was stunned: "Assassination? Who wants you to assassinate Liu Jin? ”

Wu Han was also stunned when he heard this, and said suspiciously: "Isn't the adult going to get rid of Liu Jin's old thief?" ”

Cheng Qiyun smiled and said: "Idiot, now the whole world knows that adults and Liu Jin are at odds, Liu Jin was assassinated, who is the spearhead pointing at?" Besides, this is not a confrontation between the two armies, as a courtier, to assassinate and eliminate political enemies, this life will not be able to sleep peacefully, once one day the mistake is exposed, will it not be a disaster of annihilation? ”

Wu Han's face turned red, and he said abruptly: "What do you mean by ......?" ”

Yang Ling looked him up and down, and said to Cheng Qiyun: "Yun'er, are you sure?" ”

Cheng Qiyun walked up to Wu Han, pinched his shoulder, held up his chin, and looked up and down with a pair of flattering eyes, Song Xiaoai was a little breathless when she saw it: Cheng Qiyun is not an adult's ......, how can she tease Xiao Wu?

Miss Song's eyes widened, and she didn't know how to refuse. Wu Han reacted after a moment of stunnedness, and said after eating: Second stall head, what is this for? ”

saw Cheng Qiyun smile back at Yang Ling, and said, "My lord, General Wu has just arrived at the military department, and there are very few people in the Beijing division who know him. Besides, if you pretend to be a subordinate, few people will pay attention to it, and you will be sure to change his appearance if you are lowly in your position."

She turned her eyes, Ying Ying looked at Song Xiaoai, whose face was slightly red, and said, "Except for General Song and other people who are very close, even if they meet on the other side, others may not be able to recognize them." ”

Ling said happily: "Captain Wu Han will take leave and return to his hometown from tomorrow for a month. Xiao Wu, I'm going to entrust you to be a sedan chair man for a while! ”

Let's carry the latest talk

******************

At Liu Jin's house, Zhang Wenmian and Liu Jin were discussing secretly in the study.

Liu Jin laughed and said: "This is really Jiren's own natural appearance, Yang Ling wants to bring down our family, but the horse thief he recruited is reversed, this is really a cocoon."

Zhang Wenmian saw that he looked overjoyed, and said: "Liu Gong, this is not the time to be happy, Xu Tai's army has gone to Bazhou, you didn't tell others about the situation we discussed, right?" ”

Liu Jin took a sip of the tea, and said with a smile: "No, no, this kind of headless thing, the fewer people who know about it, the better, even if it is our own brother, there is no need to tell him to know."

Zhang Wenmian put his mind at ease and said with a smile: "That's good." The rebellion of the Bazhou Xiangma thieves is just an opportunity, we have to take advantage of the victory to chase the opportunity, expand this opportunity, and make Yang Ling lose his position. It is better to be equipped with military equipment, and never suffer in the future".

Liu Jin also laughed and said, "That's nature. More than 1,000 rebellious people rebelled, but the emperor didn't take it to heart, only put Yang Ling under house arrest at home, and sent his people to take care of him, obviously wanting to quell the rebellion as soon as possible and turn the big thing into a small one to exonerate him. This time, the overseer is Liang Hong, and our family has secretly instructed him to hold Xu Tai's hind legs, and our family can also drag it out when it comes to money and food. This gang of robbers must be allowed to make a big fuss, so big that even the emperor can't protect Yang Ling, hum hum ......."

Zhang Wenmian nodded, thought about it carefully, and said: "Liang Hong's blackmailing of the horse thieves is not a fair and honest thing, Liang Hong has not publicized it, and the horse thieves will not beg those officials who already look down on them, so there should be few people who know about forcing them to rebel." Now that the officials of the DPRK and the Central Committee are afraid of the books in your hands and dare not persecute Liu Gong, Liu Chengyi should take this opportunity to completely defeat Yang Ling. so that he has no chance to turn over".

Liu Jin nodded with a smile, and at this time, Menzi hurriedly came in to report: "Father-in-law, Gongzi Lu is here."

Liu Jin was in good spirits when he was in good spirits on a happy event, and he smiled when he heard the words: "The son is here?" Hurry up and invite him in."

In the second gate, Lu Shijie stepped down from the sedan chair, dusted off his robe, and said: "I'll go to see Liu Gong, the second housekeeper, arrange a place for the sedan chair drivers, I want to live in Liu Gong's mansion today."

Lu Shijie is the celebrity in front of Liu Jin, and he often lives in the mansion, so the second housekeeper doesn't want to think about it, and Lian Xin said with a smile: "Yes, yes, son, please come in, these small things will be arranged."

Four sedan chairmen carried the empty sedan chair and followed the second steward towards the servant's room. The four sedan chair drivers are all good young men, and among them is a tall young man with a dark face and thick eyebrows, walking with an empty sedan chair while carefully observing the surrounding situation.

Liu Jin's private residence is not qualified to be guarded by the government, but Liu Jin himself has hired many family guards to protect the courtyard, Yang Yu and Shi Wenyi, the two scum of the Jinyi Guard, in order to please him, sent the Jinyi Guard to guard the periphery, and the defense is not strict, but the defense work has always been tight on the outside and loose on the inside, and no one is full of guards in the backyard of his inner house all day long.

The surrounding houses, roads, and corner gates were all exactly the same as the shapes drawn by Lu Shijie, and Wu Han had long since memorized them, and at this time he mainly observed the people who came and went, the specific distances between the buildings, including the height of the walls of the houses, the rockeries between the houses, the flower beds, and the places where he could hide his whereabouts.

Lu Shijie originally had four fixed sedan drivers, but the one in charge of lifting the sedan curtain made a little mistake. When the sedan chair arrived at the construction site, Lu Gongzi didn't pay attention when he got out of the sedan chair, and tripped himself up, Lu Gongzi was a scholar of Sven, and he lost such a big face in front of his subordinates, and he couldn't help but be annoyed and angry, so he quit the sedan chair man.

Lu Gongzi has always looked above the top when he walks, not looking at the top of his feet, and the construction site is bumpy, who is to blame for this? The sedan chair man was unlucky, but a servant who was carrying a stone next to him acted numbly, and quickly threw a stone and grabbed him to help him up, Lu Gongzi was happy, and pointed him out as his sedan chair man, this person is Xiao Wu, now called Xiao Guan.

When the head of the sedan chair saw Wu Handong looking around, he called: "Xiaoguan, there are many rules in big households, don't look around." Let's go, Master Liu's food is fragrant, even our bitter haha also have wine to drink, let's drink a few cups in a while."

Xiao Guan hurriedly laughed and said: "Okay, listen to the head, the little head is so beautiful to see such a big house."

When the second housekeeper heard this, he sneered, glanced at him disdainfully, and said with a smile: "Boy, you can see it for a long time, pretty?" This is the servant's room, if you see our Liu Gong's residence, hehe, magnificent, that is heaven on earth."

When Liu Jin saw Lu Shijie coming in, he greeted him with a smile: "Master Lu, how is the progress in Xuanming Palace?" ”

Lu Shijie said: "Liu Gong rest assured. By May, at the latest, the hall will be built."

Liu Jin raised his eyebrows and said, "That's good, that's good." At that time, inviting the emperor and the queen mother to celebrate the completion of Xuanming Palace is a great achievement for our family. ”

Lu Shijie said with concern: "Liu Gong, these are small things, but what I am worried about is the general trend of the court." Coerced with letters and stickers, although the hundred officials would not stand on Yang Ling's side, but the more Xiao Ke thought about it, the more worried he felt, the hundred officials were so jealous of his father-in-law, sooner or later he would cause trouble, and his father-in-law should have taken precautions as soon as possible."

Liu Jin smiled: "There are many people who hate our family, what's the matter with a few more?" It doesn't matter if you hate me, he has to have the ability to bring me down, looking at the government and the opposition, such a person is just Yang Ling now. And Yang Ling ...... Hmph, if the war in Bazhou is not extinguished, he will be finished. Without Yang Ling, none of the others have been put in the eyes of our family."

Lu Shijie heard what Liu Jin said, and his heart moved: Liu Jin dared to risk the world's greatness and use his power to deliberately expand the war in Bazhou, so as to add guilt to the national government?

Lu Shijie's heart was cold, but this kind of thing could never be asked. He returned to his seat with Liu Jin and Zhang Wenmian, and then said sincerely: "Liu Gong, Xiao Ke came today just for this matter." In Xiaoke's opinion, deterring hundreds of officials, and taking advantage of both grace and power, is the long-term plan.

Xiao Ke said one thing, Wen Mian must know, in the past, when Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, crusaded against Wang Lang, he also got thousands of books, calligraphy and paintings, poems and gift lists that his courtiers usually interact with Wang Lang.

And what about Emperor Guangwu of Han? He burned the letter in public, saying that the hundred officials and Wang Lang interacted, no matter what the reason, they would not be investigated, and the civil and military officials were ashamed and grateful, and many people knelt in front of him and wept bitterly to repent of their mistakes. ”

Zhang Wenmian nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, this matter is recorded in the history books, and the students also know about it." What does Lu Gongzi mean by destroying all the letters to reassure people's hearts? But...... Liu Xiu burned the letter left by Wang Lang, Liu Gong and privately saved a letter from a hundred officials, and now he burned it himself, can he attract people's hearts? ”

Lu Shijie said: "No, what Xiao Ke means, is not to let the father-in-law destroy the letters of the hundred officials, but that the father-in-law has the letters of the hundred officials in his hand, which will inevitably cause the resentment of the hundred officials, even if he does not dare to embarrass his father-in-law, it will not be good to be passive and snub to the father-in-law's orders in the future."

I mean, the father-in-law might as well take out the letter box and let Xiao Ke and Wen Mian check it, those who are in a high official position and have some weight in the letters will be bundled into a separate part for retention, and those with lower official positions and the content of the letters will not be enough to threaten the other party into another one, and after Yang Ling is defeated and no longer a threat, return the letters of these people to them.

Then let's let out the wind to the outside world, and say that these people are loyal to their father-in-law, so the father-in-law returned the letter. In this way, these officials must be grateful. Other officials must also be faithful to their father-in-law, and hope that one day his father-in-law will return it to them, so that it is better to fish with bait than to coerce and coercion completely, and to divide those people."

Zhang Wenmian pondered for a moment, and said: "What Lu Gongzi said is reasonable, one hit and one pull, one tight and one loose, it is the best way to control people, Liu Gong might as well adopt it."

As soon as Liu Jin saw that the two think tanks were saying this, he happily said: "Listen to you, housekeeper?" Call the chief butler and take out the secret box. ”

After a while, Liu Jin's relative, Liu Erhan, who is now the chief housekeeper of Liu's mansion, hurried over, listened to Liu Jin's instructions, and hurriedly pushed open the bookshelf on the side, revealing a small copper door on the wall.

When Lu Shijie saw this, a treacherous and inexplicable brilliance quietly flashed in his eyes......

******************

Xu Tai's army finally arrived in Bazhou, looking at the cangyi, the entire Bazhou city has completely changed after the military disaster. Everywhere were people who helped the old and the young to flee, and they did not settle down because Xu Tai's army had arrived.

Liang Hong led the men and horses back to his town guard mansion, only to see that the original magnificent mansion had been turned into a flat ground, and there was still smoke curling on the ruins, so he couldn't help but jump to his feet and scold.

Liang Hong was scolding, and the two people sneaked over. As soon as the soldiers shouted over there, Liang Hong, who was hoarse and powerful, immediately avoided behind the officers and soldiers, stared at the two eyes, and saw that the two people were covered with ashes, like a pair of little ghosts, jumping and shouting at him, while waving his hands: "Liang Gonggong, Liang Zhenshou, we are Hu Bantou and Du Bantou of Zhizhou Yamen, my name is Du Xingyuan, do you remember?" Lord Zhizhou, please eat and drink, we are here to send a post."

Liang Hong had an impression when he heard this, and after taking a closer look, he was indeed familiar, so he said tremblingly: If it's them, bring them over, wait, search your body first! ”

The two squad leaders were searched, and then they were escorted by the soldiers to the front, and when the two squad leaders arrived in front of them, they knelt down there with a "poof" and cried loudly: "Father-in-law, you want to avenge us." Xiangma has stolen into the city, and Bazhou has been looted......".

Who burned my house? ”

Where are the horse thieves now? ”

Liang Hong and Xu Tai asked in unison.

Du Xingyuan wiped his big face, and said with a sad face: "We don't know who burned it, we don't know where the horse thieves are, Bazhou City was breached, Zhizhou, Tongzhi, Tuiguan and other officials all died in battle, Jiang Guerrilla recaptured Bazhou City, and then it was broken again, and the world was burned and killed repeatedly."

The little ones changed into the clothes of the people, and only then did they escape with their lives. Now the soldiers are in chaos, the horse thieves are recruiting troops and buying horses to loot everywhere, and the Jiang guerrilla soldiers don't know where they have gone...... My baby, my mother, it's all gone, ahhh......hhh

When Zheng Heyi heard that Hua Tuiguan was killed in battle, his heart couldn't help but sink, and he shouted: "Don't cry, General Xu is at the emperor's behest and dominates the state, just to quell the rebellion and eliminate the horse thieves, quickly tell everything you know!" ”

Du Xingyuan was drunk by him, stopped crying, and then told what he knew one by one.

It turned out that Zhang Mao and others attacked the city that night, and it was impossible to hold Bazhou City, except for the inspection department and the third class of officials in the city, how could there be any available manpower, but as the lord of a state, you can only defend and not retreat, and you would rather die in battle, if you dare to escape, it will be the fate of Shangcai Shikou.

Therefore, the new Zhizhou Lord had to lead all the official personnel to fight in the city, Hua Tuiguan's physical injury was not healed and limped up the city wall, the horse thieves have hooks to climb the treasure hook, as well as the ladder taken from the anti-theft camp, the city wall of Bazhou is not high, and the city wall is not taken care of at all, an hour later, the horse attacked the city, began to set fire everywhere, and then opened the city gate, introduced a large group of people, and the first catastrophe in Bazhou City began.

The rich families of Bazhou City were unlucky first, and then the people with a little wealth were also looted, and then the beautiful women began to be insulted, and the whole city was in chaos, and the fleeing crowds opened the city gate and fled in all directions.

Before dawn, Zhang Mao took control of the whole city and began to recruit troops, some people who had been oppressed by the government for a long time, and the ruffians who took advantage of the chaos to rob, rob property, and ** women tasted the sweetness, and at the same time, for their own safety, they responded one after another and joined Zhang Mao's team. More than 300 people reached the height of the sky, and 1,200 people were exhibited.

Liu Liu and Liu Qi were overjoyed when they saw the situation, and only by showing their men and horses could they have the ability to confront the imperial court, so they immediately asked to lead troops to the battle, and while the news had not spread, they quickly attacked Wen'an, Gu'an, Yongqing, and Xiongxian.

Zhang Mao also knew that the top priority was to strengthen himself quickly, so he agreed without hesitation, and assigned Liu Liu, Feng Lei and others to lead an army each, and at the same time attacked various counties and towns. However, there are still many things in Bazhou City that have not been dealt with, and some grain, grass, gold and silver have not yet been collected, so Zhang Mao volunteered to stay in Bazhou to deal with it.

Liu Liu and the others were worried that Jiang Bin was close at hand and came to attack when they heard the news, but Zhang Mao was very confident in Jiang Bin, believing that he would not abandon his brotherhood for the sake of the imperial court. Besides, if Jiang Bin leads the army to attack, he can escape at any time, and if there are too many people to fight, it will not be a problem to escape. Liu Liu Liu and Liu Qi knew his skills, thought about it for a while, and considered that the opportunity was fleeting, so they agreed.

Zhang Mao left 60 elite soldiers and 120 newly recruited brothers, searched one large house after another, and was hurriedly collecting property, someone came to report, and the guerrilla general Jiang Bin led 12 cavalry to knock on the city to ask for a meeting. Zhang Mao stepped on the seat of Lord Zhizhou, laughed when he heard the news, and said to the left and right: "How? My brother only led twelve horsemen to ask for a meeting, obviously came to vote for me, hahaha, hurry up and meet me."

Zhang Maoxing rushed out of the city with people, only to see Jiang Bin leading twelve horsemen and cronies. He was standing on the side of the city gate, and when he saw him out of the city, he rode his horse and rode alone, and when he saw him, he was surprised: "I just went to the anti-theft camp, and it was ruined." The guerrillas scattered and fled. How did Big Brother really turn the other around? ”

Zhang Mao laughed and said, "Isn't Liang Hong an old thief?" The blackmail is countless and the persecution is too great, our brother can't stand this pickled anger, so he simply opposes his mother. Brother, you are a big official, the future is bright, brother is not difficult for you, I don't lead troops to attack your military camp, you don't come to me to be unlucky, the little Bazhou can't keep me, enough military salaries, the eldest brother will go away, don't embarrass you in your territory, how about it? ”

Jiang Bin snorted and scolded: "Fart, is an official amazing?" If you are a thief, your brother is a guerrilla general, it is difficult to guarantee that you will not be evil, I have calculated it, if you want to rebel, the court will look at me even more unpleasantly, this official does not do it, brother will rebel with you! ”

Zhang Mao was overjoyed, stared at him and said, "Is this true? ”

Jiang Bin said angrily: "Naturally, take it seriously! Don't you believe me? These brothers are my good brothers who share life and death, brought from Xuanfu, I told them, they are willing to follow me, didn't I come to vote for you? My military horse had just taken over, and I couldn't rest assured that I didn't dare to tell them what I thought, so I ...... There are only a few people here, and they can't help the eldest brother, and I feel that some of them don't have the face to see you."

Zhang Mao shook the reins of the horse, circled the horse and stood with him, and said arrogantly: "If I don't believe you, the eldest brother will not only lead these few people out of the city." What are the officers and soldiers afraid of? Brothers, you alone, is enough to enter the city with thousands of elite soldiers, and in the future, our two brothers will fight and sit together in the country! ”

Jiang Bin and Zhang Mao clasped their palms, laughed, and then galloped into the city and joined the gang.

At noon, the two of them were in the lobby of Zhizhou, looking at the gold and jade treasures collected in front of them, and made a wine table with the official case of Lord Zhizhou, a big bowl of wine and a large mouthful of meat, and drank heartily, discussing the trend after recruiting troops and buying horses.

The two drank at the same table, and when they drank to the fullest, Jiang Bin suddenly smashed the sea bowl, only to be stunned, and Zhang Mao, who was drunk and hazy, had a huge pain in his neck, cut the artery, and blood gushed out, splashing Jiang Bin's face.

Zhang Mao roared and slashed out with one palm, Jiang Bin had already prepared and had already rebounded and retreated. Zhang Maoji pointed at him and shouted angrily: "Treacherous boy! As soon as he spoke, his eyes were dazzled, and he was already unsteady on his feet.

Jiang Bin's regiment retreated, and immediately took off the two swords hanging on the pillar, and carried the knives like wheels, without hesitation, only to hear a sound, the big head waved into the air, Jiang Bin stabbed on the tip of the knife, and shouted: "The thief chief is dead, who dares to resist?" ”

I saw that he was dressed in iron armor and cold, his face was drenched in blood, and the double knives in his hands were raised, and the head of the knife was a human head with angry eyes, as if he was alive, it was really a terrifying person's seven souls and six spirits.

As soon as his twelve fierce soldiers from the Xuanfu border army saw that the general succeeded, they immediately jumped up, and the wind swept away the leaves, slaughtering several bandits in the hall, and when Liu Twenty-seven, who was searching in the city, heard the news and led people to come, Jiang Bin had led twelve horsemen out of the city, and joined the brigade waiting in the dense forest for several miles, and killed the generals again, and Bazhou City was lost.

Liu Liu and others, who were successful in the county road, heard the news sent by Liu Twenty-seven, and when they heard that Zhang Maozhong had been killed, they immediately felt gallbladder, and led several armies to kill Bazhou. In this battle, Liu Liu's side attacked the city with all his might, regardless of casualties. Although the soldiers in his hands are untrained, their martial arts and equestrian skills are extraordinary, and they are by no means invincible to ordinary people.

After fighting for half a day, he actually rushed into the city again, Jiang Bin saw that the situation was not good, and immediately collected the remnants of the army to withdraw from the city, and Bazhou changed hands again. The horse thieves vented their anger on the people, and countless families were poisoned.

Jiang Bin heard that his cousin had rebelled, and this time it was a public rebellion, which was by no means an easy and forgivable crime when he was a horse thief last time, and he also took a lot of thought. If you don't send troops, because of the relationship between the two, you will be impeached by the imperial court, and this official can't do it. If he sent troops, his generals were suspicious of him, and they were always worried that he would conspire with Zhang Mao to bury him, so how could he win by sending troops? Jiang Bin was in an awkward dilemma.

If he wants him to give up his splendid future, he will never rebel with Zhang Mao, but if he doesn't kill Zhang Mao now, his good future will be ruined by Zhang Mao. Jiang Bin thought about it, and finally made up his mind and decided to kill Zhang Mao.

Wealth and danger are sought, and the opportunity has to be fought for by yourself. Zhang Mao is now the one who ruined his future, and he is also the one who can send him high-ranking officials. Once he made up his mind, Jiang Bin no longer looked ahead, and he gathered his generals and colonels. explained his intentions in person, and stated that he rushed into the city, took Zhang Mao's level, and then led the army into the city, despite this, the generals were still skeptical, but they finally nodded and agreed, so there was this fraudulent plan.

Jiang Bin's soldiers and horses are thousands of people, although according to Yang Ling's words, the combat power is not as good as the elite of Xiangma, but it is the most elite army in Bazhou, and the imperial court sent a large army to exterminate the bandits. They are the most effective local force to help suppress thieves. Even if the low walls of Bazhou City are thin and unfavorable to hold, it was captured by the Xiangma thieves for half a day......

Xu Tai's expression became serious, and he immediately ordered the whole army to enter the city and station, and sent horse scouts to find out the movements of the horse thieves, so as to decide the march of the army. Zheng Heyi heard that Jiang Bin led the remnants of the army to flee, and now his whereabouts are unknown, he couldn't help but be very anxious, this person is an important person designated by the national government, it may be related to the national security crisis, Hua Yu is dead, if this person is good again, how to find out the truth about the rebellion in Bazhou?

As soon as the army was stationed, Zheng Heyi quietly went to see Xu Tai and explained his worries to him. Xu Tai was also anxious to find Jiang Bin, but now that the entire Bazhou government had been completely destroyed, the army was like a blind man and a blind horse, and he didn't know anything about the situation, and besides, the army could not carry two days' rations, and the baggage vehicles were all behind, so it was impossible for the army to wander aimlessly.

The two discussed for a long time, and decided to send some small teams of people, led by Du Bantou, Hu Bantou and some officials who fled back, disguised as a small group of refugees, and asked around for news of Jiang Bin, and if they could find him, they would ask him to come to Bazhou to meet him, and at the same time collect information about the horse thieves.

A team of scouts were sent out, Zheng Heyi went to the prominent places in the city to make some marks, hoping that the people in his inner factory could come to contact him in time when they saw it, but Bazhou had already made a mess, all the news channels were destroyed in the war, and the remaining intelligence personnel were fighting on their own, and the fixed message transmission personnel and transmission nodes in the middle no longer existed, and the efficiency became extremely low.

******************

In the reeds outside Zhaojiazhuang in Wen'an County, Jiang Bin led more than a dozen brothers to avoid it, many of his brothers were injured, and a soldier tore off a strip of clothing to wrap the wound on his arm, and said hatefully: "Damn, these crop men are really despised." My lord, these horse thieves are more ruthless than Tartars, let's get out of here."

Jiang Bin lay lazily on the reed ground, looked at the blue sky with two knives on his pillow, and said, "What a fart!" If my men and horses are the brothers of our border army, is it so cowardly? As soon as I heard that there were bandits everywhere, even the generals and colonels only cared about asking how their hometowns were, and they were worried about their own villages and relatives, and the hearts of the people were not aligned, I had just arrived, and I couldn't control this group of waste, otherwise I would ......."

When he said this, he suddenly sat up and whispered, "Silence! ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand to signal everyone not to speak, and at the same time gently grabbed the handle of the knife, only to hear the sound of the rope, as if someone was walking through the grass, and his subordinates all raised their knives in their hands, holding their breath and paying attention. After a while, a figure flashed out, and two soldiers jumped up like a tiger pounced on a sheep, and threw the man to the ground, with a blade across the man's neck, frightening the man to scream: "Spare your life, spare your life, the small one is just an ordinary person, and the strong men are ...... gracious."

Let's carry the latest talk

Jiang Bin put his mind at ease and shouted in a low voice: "Shut up!" I'm going to kill you again! Get him up. ”

The man was pulled up by two soldiers, and it turned out to be a white and fat woman, with a round figure, fine skin and tender meat, and a plain cloth towel wrapped around her head.

Jiang Bin looked up and down suspiciously, and when the woman saw Jiang Bin, her two little eyes widened. After a long time, the two suddenly said in unison: "It's you?!" ”

The man was overjoyed, patted his fat chest and said, "But I'm scared to death, I thought I had met a bandit, Master Jiang, why are you hiding here?" ”

Jiang Bin snorted and said, "Where am I hiding?" My people were scattered, and I just took them here to wrap up their wounds and rest. Qiao County Order, how do you ...... Gu'an County was also captured by bandits? ”

Gu'an County Ling Qiao Yushu was dressed as a woman, he tore off the green cloth towel on his head, wiped the sweat on his face and the reed flowers stained on it, and said: "Isn't it, how can there be any soldiers in Gu'an, I saw the opportunity early as soon as the horse thieves attacked, and quickly took off the official robe and changed into women's clothes and slipped out." They only cared about stealing things, and no one paid attention to me."

Jiang Bin pouted and said, "Just like you, the horse is too lazy to touch you, why don't you bring it alone?" ”

Qiao Zhixian cried and said, "I can't take care of it." I didn't dare to go back to Gu'an, so I hid all the way to here. On the way, I heard that the imperial court has sent a large army, and now it is stationed in Bazhou City, but I have the responsibility to defend the land, and I am not going to go or returning to Gu'an, this is really a dilemma." [Heaven's Kiss Hand-hitting]

When Jiang Bin heard that the imperial army had arrived, he couldn't help but be overjoyed: "The imperial court has sent troops?" Haha, that's easy to do, let's go back to Lord Bazhou immediately, you have three classes of servants, and you have the responsibility to defend the land? It's almost the same as having corpses in the land. Don't hide in Tibet, go back to Bazhou with me, I'll help you talk about it, just say that you lead the government to defend to the death, but the enemy is strong and I am weak, after the loss of Gu'an, I wanted to die with the city, but fortunately, the official led the army to the enemy to fight fiercely, and only rescued you, so isn't it irresponsible? ”

Jiang Bin said a few words, a great achievement, Qiao Yushu was grateful when he heard it, and hurriedly grabbed Jiang Bin with two oily fat hands, and said with tears in his eyes: "Thank you Lord Jiang, thank you Lord Jiang, Lord Jiang is really my reborn parents, Qiao has nothing to repay, I have a widowed sister who ...... at home."

Jiang Bin waved his hand impatiently and said: "Excuse me, forget it, your sister will count on the Wang Meiren who has just married the door, this army is chaotic, and the ** of ten is over."

He shook his head regretfully, lifted the double knife and said: "Let's go, there are too many people who have joined the bandits, there are people everywhere, and Liu Liu and Liu Qi seem to be aiming at me and they are taking the road back to Bazhou."

He led more than a dozen people to walk quietly along the edge of the reeds for a while, suddenly waved his hand back, and then fell down, and the people behind hurriedly crouched on the ground. Qiao Yushu was nervous, the whole person fell down, and the soldier next to him wanted to scold his mother, but fortunately, the people outside were also running for their lives, and no one paid attention to it.

I saw a burly man in a green robe, holding a girl in his arms, and a beautiful woman with a slender figure like a willow in his right hand, who was hurrying along the soil stalk beside the reeds. The beautiful young woman was a pair of small feet, running and staggering on this rough road, and staggered despite the man's support.

As soon as Jiang Bin was about to grow up and call people, he heard the sound of chasing and shouting from behind the man, and immediately fell down again, looking through the faint gap between the reeds. I saw that the woman heard the shouting, her heart was anxious, she twisted her foot, and knelt on the ground in pain, and the thick eyebrows and big eyes, the extremely rough man asked urgently: "Lady, how are you?" ”

The woman cried and said, "Xianggong, the slave family can't do anything, you can run away with the child quickly, leave me alone."

Dahan hurriedly said: "Then what's the matter, hurry up, I'll carry you away."

At this moment, the pursuers had arrived, and the big man looked back, very anxious, and had no choice but to put down the little doll that was only five or six years old, and said: "Guard your mother, don't leave", and turned back to meet him.

Unexpectedly, this big man has good skills, the three or four men who caught up have knives and sticks, and he can deal with them with his bare hands, but he just wants to have scruples, and he never dares to hurt people, but he just yells: "Zhao is just an ordinary person, why are you heroes working hard to force each other?" ”

A chaotic soldier peeked at the beautiful young woman holding her daughter ** and said: "Such an excellent little lady is really rare, a few brothers work hard, and as a result, this rough man, brother, I will take the lead, hahahaha......."

As he spoke, he ran over and tore the girl doll open, and the young woman screamed, and he threw herself to the ground, so he went to pull her shirt.

"Xianggong, Xianggong save me ......". The young woman was teary-eyed and screamed for help.

The big man turned his head and looked, he was furious, he didn't dare to hurt anyone, at this time, he picked up a pair of bowl-sized iron fists and swung left and right, no one could be the one, forced everyone to disperse, jumped in a tiger step, pounced over, grabbed the big man who was indecent to his wife, and hit him to death on the spot with an iron fist on the sun.

The bandits were furious, and they all gathered around, and the big man picked up the stick next to the dead body, which made the wind whine, and several big men couldn't get close for a while. At this moment, a large group of horses chased after him, and the leading man was Liu Liu.

Jiang Bin was shocked, knowing that since he appeared, he would follow the bandits and kill his cousin, Liu Liu hated himself to the bone, if he revealed his whereabouts today, it would be difficult to escape, so he fell to the ground, held his breath, and didn't dare to say a word again.

Liu Liu saw that the big man was dressed in extraordinary martial arts, his god was majestic, and he was a good man, so he waved his hand and said: "Go up a few, don't hurt him." Liu Liu's side of the horse thieves immediately rushed out of a few people, although the Han Dynasty's martial arts were high, it was difficult to defeat the crowd after all, plus his wife and daughter were beside him, and he didn't dare to escape, so he was captured alive.

The steel knife was added to the neck, and the big man was still unconvinced, his eyes glared angrily, and he wanted to breathe fire. Liu Liu stepped forward and shouted, "Who are you?" Dare to go wild! ”

The big man replied with disgust: "What a stupid robber, don't you even know the madman Zhao in Wen'an County?" ”

Liu Liu has always admired the courageous heroes, he is also from Wen'an County, how do you not know that this Zhao Xiucai, who is righteous and squandering money, and is righteous and chivalrous, when he heard it, he couldn't help but be in awe, and hurriedly arched his hand and said: "It turned out to be Mr. Zhao, who has admired the name of chivalry for a long time, but unfortunately he has never been familiar with it before, so he was offended, and he begged Mr. for forgiveness!" ”

Zhao Sui stepped forward and said: "You go your way, I go my way, why be polite to me?" ”

Liu Liu raised his eyebrows and said: "Corrupt officials and corrupt officials are all over the world, and we are forced by him, so we have no choice but to do this business." Mr. Jinde is here, if he is willing to help and instruct everything, I am willing to be ordered to teach, I don't know what Mr. Zhao thinks? ”

Zhao Sui looked up to the sky and laughed: "With you, can you also win the world?" ”

Liu Liu was not shocked or angry, and said with a smile: "Princes and generals, would you rather have a kind?" The success, the prince, the loser, the thief, the hero after success or failure, it is inevitable that he will be glamorous, in fact, the hegemon who has achieved hegemony in ancient times, before the great cause is completed, what is the difference with me? ”

Zhao Sui didn't expect this robber to have such knowledge, so he couldn't help but look at him differently, and his face was a little arrogant. Liu Liu observed the words, and said with a smile: "Come on, don't embarrass the lady and children, respectfully ask Mr. to return to the village, and Liu will ask for advice."

He knew that Zhao Sui was bold and righteous, and when he came forward for the poor, he was not only loved, but also repeatedly excluded by the government. Zhao Sui has long been dissatisfied with the government, and he loves his wife and children deeply, so he may not be able to succeed by threatening each other.

Zhao Sui's wife and daughter were in the hands of others, so they had no choice but to follow him to the village. The robbers guarded Liu Liu, surrounded Zhao Sui and rushed away, seeing the wind shaking the reeds and returning to silence, Jiang Bin jumped up and said: "Liu Liu is back to the village, this is a good opportunity, let's go quickly, immediately go to Bazhou to report the news, and lead the army to attack!" ”

******************

The war in Bazhou continued, due to the delay of Liu Jin in the DPRK, Liang Hong indiscriminately contained the action in the army, and the war lasted for a long time, and Bazhou became more and more erosive and uncontrollable.

According to the news from Beijing, the Xiangma thieves absorbed Zhao Sui, the living beings of Wen'an County, and Zhao Sui scattered all his family wealth, and 500 people, including his brothers Zhao Pan and Zhao Hao, as well as his family members and tenants, joined the anti-thieves, and appointed the deputy marshal of the Xiangma thief Liu Hui, and changed his name to Zhao Huaizhong.

With his strict military discipline and unified orders, the horse thieves, who were originally like guerrilla soldiers scattered and robbed everywhere aimlessly, began to act purposefully, attacking the city, killing officials, and suppressing the gentry and landlords.

More and more troops were absorbed, and Boye, Raoyang, Nangong, Wuji, Dongming and other counties were captured, and the officers and soldiers of the local guard station fled. Although the border army of Xu Taidi can fight, the horse thieves come and go like the wind. And familiar with the terrain of Bazhou, you can gallop hundreds of miles in a day and night. just avoided the Beijing army, only focused on suppressing the gentry everywhere and absorbing the subordinates, and Xu Tai was restrained by Liang Hong. They can only follow behind and clean up the mess for them, and now the rebel forces have nearly 15,000 people.

The news was sent back to Jingshi. Six shocked, the Son of Heaven was shocked, Liu Jin and his faction made a big noise, constantly asking for more troops to quell the rebellion, asking to kill Yang Ling to thank the world, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse, originally thought that the rebellion could be quelled quickly, Yang Ling was only slightly reprimanded The officials also noticed the severity of the situation, the sky was clear in Beijing, the spring breeze was warm, but the hearts of the officials were gloomy.

On the evening of this day, Zheng Heyi took a person to Beijing and quietly infiltrated the Yang Mansion under Song Xiaoai's arrangement. That night, the study room in Yang's mansion was bright and did not go out all night.

On the night of the second day, the mansions of Li Dongyang, Yang Tinghe, Jiao Fang, Yang Yiqing and other adults also welcomed a guest. They were worried about the situation in the DPRK and China, and they didn't sleep, and when the mysterious visitor left, their mansion was even brighter, and it didn't go out all night.

At the same time, many civil and military officials in Beijing were aroused in the middle of the night, when these adults got up from the bed in confusion and hurriedly walked into the living room, holding the old worship sticker of Jiaoge, the mysterious person waiting in the living room smiled and presented a worship box, and then said no, and said goodbye. When they opened the box full of doubts, what was placed inside was the letters, gift lists, calligraphy and paintings between themselves and Liu Jin......

Mu Bin, Dai Yi, Zhang Yong and others also stayed awake all night, and what is even more rare is that the Beizhen Fusi Ordnance Bureau, which never started work at night, someone held Mu Bin's handwritten letter and called the door, which "jingle bell" all night long, I don't know what to create, the old man who kept vigil was very curious, but unfortunately the access control was all changed to Mu Bin's henchmen, and no one was allowed to step into half a step.

The day dawned, and hundreds of officials were approaching.

Li Dongyang carried a notice of peace in Zhao Sui's own handwriting, which listed Liu Jin's 30 major crimes, 60 minor crimes, and the reasons for raising an army to attack the imperial court. He stood straight at the front of the hundred officials, full of energy.

For a long time, this assistant adult, who likes to live behind the scenes and calmly lay out, knows that now is the time to stand in front of the stage and defeat his opponent in a dignified manner.

The Weiguo Mansion was still under the strict guard of the guards, but Yang Ling wore a python robe and jade belt, and sat in the study, with a cup of fragrant tea in front of him, and the smoke curling. He is now under house arrest, but he looks like he is about to face the king.

Opposite him sat a tiger general, dressed in armor, but deliberately covered with scars, his face smeared with blood, holding a small fan in his hand, fanning the ground with all his might, as if to fan the blood as soon as possible.

Weird, a kind of frightening weirdness......

Liu Jin went to the palace in good spirits, and the ministers were not qualified to discuss politics, but Liu Jin has been a frequent visitor to the court these days. I spent the night talking with a few henchmen last night, and I was a little sleepy, but he was scrappy. He decided to take advantage of the good situation of the chaos in Bazhou, and concentrate his forces today to completely defeat Yang Ling in one go, so that it would be difficult for him to turn over.

A python robe, with two sleeves on the front chest and back, a total of four pythons, sitting on a python robe, among the Manchu Dynasty, only he Liu Jin and Yang Ling won this honor. However, from then on, he was the only one in the world, under the real one person, above ten thousand.

Liu Jin smiled slightly, and looked at the officials with his hand on the jade belt, just like a king looking at the humble and obedient courtiers who submitted at his feet. Suddenly, he felt a little strange, those eyes were a little cold, a faint coldness, like a group of beasts devouring flesh.

An inexplicable chill rose up from his back.

At this moment, Emperor Zhengde ascended to the dynasty, and he was wearing a dragon robe, a winged crown, and a five-clawed golden dragon robe.
