Chapter 52
When Fu Chamin walked into the inn, there was a monk waiting for him in the last seat in the lobby, Fu Chamin was not a person who liked to think about things before and after, nor was he the kind of person who thought too much and too complicated, but he knew that when he walked into this inn, it meant that he was in big trouble......
If it was three or five years earlier, he would have a lot of things to choose from, and the worst would be to follow the red flag to conquer the east and the west to make some military exploits, in that case, now he may have some land somewhere in Shenyang, more than a dozen clothed minions, but Fu Chamin thinks that he is not a person who can live like that at all, just like a vest suddenly becomes a charging armored man, before he was stationed by Li Yongfang, who has been active in western Liaoning, and has been working for Houjin Sixia to inquire about the news, Fushun may not remember such a detailed work of him at all, In terms of the meticulous work in which the result is everything, he does not have much to boast about.
In the era when the old khan presided over the room, he sent a large number of craftsmen and craftsmen from all walks of life to infiltrate the rebellion to listen to the situation, spread rumors, and bribe the local guards and local gentry. At that time, the Eight Banners were not good at attacking Jiancheng, so they had to send a large number of meticulous work, external attack and internal response, invincible, Kaiyuan, Tieling, Qinghe, Fushun, Guangning, Shenyang, etc. were all beaten in this way.
Compared with other detailed works, Fu Chamin only made a small contribution when Houjin attacked Shenyang, that is, he disguised himself as a servant of a gentry surnamed Ye and entered Shenyang first. At the same time, there were nearly 100 people who entered the city, and the people of the entire Shenyang knew that "slaves and spies are everywhere", but they couldn't stand the mediocrity of the Ming Kingdom. The generals were incompetent, and later when the soldiers and horses of the Eight Banners gathered under the city, the fine work in the city ignited the powder magazine, and the city was panicked for a long time. A large number of outstanding fine works were sent to the area of Beijing to investigate the news, but soon, Li Yongfang made a statement because of the massacre of the Han people in Fuzhou by Lao Khan. As a result, he was trained and gradually fell out of favor, and Fu Chamin, who was not excellent, was also forgotten.
Fu Chamin spent more than a year in Shenyang, and then Lushun Yangbo Group rose rapidly. Huang Taiji, who was in a hurry, took the initiative to see Li Yongfang for the first time. Later, after the order came down, Fu Chamin and a few fine workers took it to Phi Dao, and finally lurked in Lushun after all the hardships.
Fu Chamin quickly swept it with the corner of his eye, and after nothing abnormal, he sat down opposite the monk, at this moment, the monk stretched out his index finger and clicked three times on the table, Fu Chamin nodded and did the same, but the difference was that he used his left hand. Fu Chamin's hanging heart was relaxed, and he first turned over the cup that was buckled on the table and put it in front of the monk. Picked up the teapot and filled it for him, and after doing all this, Fu Chamin carefully looked at this somewhat eye-catching connector.
"I'm your newest connector, my name is Gang Atai," the monk smiled and looked at him playfully.
Fu Chamin nodded and did not make a sound.
The monk then whispered in a loud voice: "As of the twentieth of last month, all the details we sent to Lushun have been exposed, except for you, what is the name of the one who infiltrated Jinzhou?" Li Zhongfa? ”
Fu Chamin naturally wouldn't ask how this connector would know about Li Zhongfa, he sighed and said, "Yes, it's him"
"What did you think at the time?" The monk got up and went to the next table to get a small bowl, replaced the small bowl with a missing mouth in his hand, and asked curiously when he came back: "I heard that Li Zhongfa was hanged in front of the representative of Tunpu, you were there at the time, right?" ”
Fu Chamin carefully looked at this Gang Atai's face, and said, "This is the end of the fine work, and there is nothing I can do."
Gang Atai smiled slightly and said, "Don't you feel scared?" Seeing Li Zhongfa hanged, you don't have any other thoughts? ”
Fu Chamin said with some vigilance: "Didn't Fushun's forehead pass away?" Who sent you? ”
Gang Atai said with a calm face: "I am Gang Atai, the third son of Fushun Eyu, on the order of the Great Khan, I came to see you this time."
Fu Chamin was a little shocked, looked at Gang Atai and said, "On the orders of the Great Khan? ”
Gang Atai didn't answer, but asked him repeatedly: "Li Zhongfa was hanged, what do you think?" ”
Fu Chamin was furious, raised his voice and said, "What do you want to say?" ”
"Li Zhongfa is the last" Gang Atai said thoughtfully: "He is the last one sent by his father to southern Liaonan, if I remember correctly, my father sent a total of eight capable workers, the first was Wang Shun, and then in Tieling made great contributions to Xiaoshan, and then Jiao Jun, Jiao Jun confessed Lei Biao and Li Xinmin, one after another, and finally it was Li Zhongfa's turn to ......"
Gangatai stared at Fu Chamin again and said, "The price we paid is not small, are you scared?" Why don't I transfer you back to Shenyang and reunite with your family? ”
Fu Chamin was silent for a long time before he said with a glimmer of hope: "Since the adult has taken over the presiding room of Fushun's forehead, he follows the orders of the adult, but the little one thinks to himself, the adult is afraid that he will not let the villain go back easily, right?" ”
"We're not talking about good endings, are we? Originally, you just made a great achievement, and it is understandable to transfer you back, I can't let you hide in the dark all the time and not breathe, do you understand what I mean? Gang Atai said nonchalantly
"The villain doesn't want to go around in circles" Fu Chamin made up his mind: "What do adults want to do?" ”
"I want you to stay in the cold for a while, from now on, you have to take the initiative and preside over the intelligence network in Lushun, this is your task and the helper sent to you" Gang Atai pushed a note to Fu Chamin.
Fu Chamin quickly took the note and glanced at it, the note was written in Manchu, and it listed a lot of news that needed to be spied on, such as the gunpowder formula, the two-wheel artillery production process, etc., as well as the composition of the Iron Fist Brigade and the Rock Brigade, the names of generals at all levels, etc., and there were several names written crookedly below.
"If your father's forehead is still there, he will definitely not send me any helpers" Fu Chamin sneered and crumpled the note. Then the cover of the teacup swallowed the note into his stomach.
"Oh?" Gangatai looked at Fu Chatai with some surprise and said, "What do you say?" ”
Fu Chamin shook his head and said: "Here in Lushun, the more joy you toss, the faster you die." The atmosphere here is completely different from other places in the Ming Dynasty, my lord, do you know that the villain's qualifications are mediocre, and he was originally not in the eyes of Fu Shun's forehead, but at that time, Shenyang did not stay in detail and did not do much, so the villain was also sent to make up a number. But do you know why Wang Shun and Xiaoshan have cold bones. The villain is alive and well? ”
Just now, Atai's curiosity was aroused, and he didn't care about Fu Chamin's rudeness at the moment, and asked, "Tell me, what's the scene?" ”
Fu Chamin said: "Back then, the villain just infiltrated Lushun. Fortunately, a master pointed out a word. In Lushun, you need to perform in your true colors, and it's often too late."
Seeing Gang Atai's thoughtful appearance, Fu Chamin suddenly pointed to the table by the door and said, "My lord, look at the two scholars at that table, what is abnormal?" ”
Just now Atai quietly swept the table at the door, and saw that the two of them were sometimes talking like a river and sometimes whispering, which seemed to be no different from ordinary Confucian students. But he suddenly thought of something, but he couldn't grasp the point vaguely.
"They're not from here in Lushun. You can see it at a glance," Fu Chamin said
Gang Atai looked at it carefully for a long time and said: "I also think that these two scholars are a little out of place with the Han people in Lushun, but I don't know where there is a problem."
Fu Chamin said again: "Did you see the innkeeper?" ”
Gang Atai nodded: "This proprietress has a pair of poisonous eyes, and I have been staring at me sneakily when I entered the store, this thief-like attitude, I really don't know how she still has a business to do." ”
Fu Chamin suddenly laughed and said: "A few people in the store, in fact, the most suspicious thing is you, your monk's clothes are too new, as if you have just put them on, when you walk, you can tell that you have been riding a horse for a long time, and also, is the adult's bald head shaved before leaving?" If someone lifts your monk's hat, you will immediately notice the inconsistencies, and the most important thing is that you don't have to look at people with your eyes, but you are used to squinting at people with your peripheral eyes, if you are noticed by someone from the Gendarmerie Division. Just search it, my lord, the dagger you hide in the sole of your shoes, the golden beans sewn on the collar will be exposed immediately, and it is not easy for adults to enter Lushun City alive with such a swagger, why do you think this boss lady is no longer guarding against you? That's because the villain sat at this table......"
Gangatai was immediately furious, has this meticulous work been out of the organization for too long, and even forgot about the superiority and humility? However, thinking that Lushun was left with him as a person who could pass on information, Gang Atai endured it, and said with a smile: "Lushun is not a Longtan tiger's den, I just came when Atai wanted to, and left if he wanted to, although this boss lady was a thief, it didn't reach the point of alarmism, right?" ”
Fu Chamin shook his head, and said to the two scholars: "They will soon be taken away for questioning by the people of the Lushun Military Police Division, and at the latest tonight, their details will be inquired clearly."
Gang Atai's face was full of mockery, this meticulous work was alarmist, it was nothing more than a different way to cry about his hardships, and Gang Atai saw through this person's coercive mentality at a glance.
Suddenly, the proprietress walked up to the guy and whispered a few words, the guy nodded while looking at the two of them, and after a while, the guy lifted the curtain and ran out.
Just Atai was shocked, at this moment he really felt the crisis, no wonder those experienced and meticulous works sent by his father have lost their hands in Lushun, it turns out that Lushun has really laid a net!
Gangatai said with a panicked face: "Let's hurry up, the gendarmerie department is coming, but I'm afraid it won't be easy to prevaricate."
Fu Chamin said coldly: "It's late, my lord, that guy will report to the sergeants patrolling the street first, those sergeants will not make their own decisions, they will stay at the door of the inn, while reporting to the people of the gendarmerie department, at this time to go out and really call this place three hundred taels of silver." ”
Just when Atai was anxious, the door curtain was lifted, and suddenly more than a dozen red-clothed and red-armored sergeants poured in, these sergeants were full of murderous aura, carrying waist knives, with short guns stuck in their waists, and a few of them were guarding at the door with strong crossbows, and the people of the gendarmerie department came much faster than expected, just Atai subconsciously wanted to stand up, and a hand suddenly reached over and pressed his shoulder.
At that time, he glanced left and right, and walked straight towards the two scholars, who were frightened by this posture, and stood up and looked blankly.
"You," the man said, pointing to the two of them, "where are you from?" What do you have to do in my Lushun? ”
One of the older scholars smiled and said, "Isn't this official a little misunderstood?" My two brothers traveled all the way, occasionally coming to Lushun. If you leave tomorrow, there are clouds in the book, and it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. ”
The man snorted coldly, "Lushun faces the Tartars. Did you come here to travel? I don't believe it to the ghost, I can't say it, so let's go with us. ”
The other scholar was furious when he heard this, and drew his sword with a bang, and before he could raise his head, several powerful crossbows were already in front of them, and the scholar was stunned. Several wolf-like sergeants punched him in the face, followed by several men who pounced on him and twisted him tightly. Another scholar was also tied up like a rice dumpling
"Lang Lang Qiankun, in broad daylight, you dare to wait, hmm, hmm......" The scholar who used force had not finished speaking. A sergeant shoved the kernel in
Another scholar saw that the situation was not good. didn't dare to resist and hurriedly smiled: "Official, misunderstanding, misunderstanding, our brother is here to ask to see General Zhenguo......"
"General Zhenguo is what you want to see? Take it with me! ”
The man waved his hand, and a sergeant shoved the scholar a few times, and the sergeant was furious, and he violently knocked off the scholar's hat, grabbed him by the hair, and dragged him out.
"You dare to disregard human life. There is no royal law left, my two brothers are Jinshi. Oh, lightly, alas, I, Ruan Dacheng, will not wait for you to rest......"
Just now Atai felt a chill hit his heart, it was the first time he had taught Lushun the barbarism, those two were scholars, what kind of jinshi did they just say, that was Wenqu Xing? Da Ming scholars don't dare to report their backgrounds indiscriminately, and the courage of the Lushun Gendarmerie Division is too big, right? I don't even give a chance to explain.
After the leader was dragged out, he suddenly changed to a person, and muttered a few words to the troubled proprietress with a spring breeze on his face, the two laughed for a while, and the leader turned around, Gang Atai just looked at him with four eyes, the man was slightly stunned, and his face immediately returned to the appearance of the yin owl just now, just Ah Tai was scared of him, and stood up involuntarily again, this time no one reached out to stop him.
Fu Chamin sighed slightly, slowly stood up, and whispered to Gang Atai: "Keep your expression as usual, just like in your own home." ”
Fu Chamin stepped over the wooden bench and arched his hand towards the man from a distance: "Mighty Fort Tun Changhong Sanqiang has seen Lord Huang"
Huang Jiucheng, the Lushun Military Police Division, felt that this monk was a little strange, but he didn't expect Hong Sanqiang from Weifeng Fort to be here, he nodded at Hong Sanqiang with a smile and said, "It turned out to be Lao Hong, what are you doing?" ”
Fu Chamin smiled so much that the wrinkles on his face were stretched, and said: "No, a few days ago, Han Laosan's mother passed away in Tunli, and he couldn't leave the banquet, so he asked me to find some monks for him to do a dharma, I just happened to come to Lushun on business, so I should get down, no, this is the master of Beitong who came to Dengzhou to place an order in Yongping, and he is discussing with me how big the altar to set up." ”
"What's going on?" Huang Jiucheng asked curiously
Fu Chamin said with a smile: "Master Ma, who is not yet a high-yield crop department, can toss our tun chiefs miserably, saying that next year we will free up 500 acres of good land to grow tobacco, and we will send people to learn planting techniques, poor old Hongdu is so old, and I have to ask those dolls for advice."
Huang Jiucheng laughed when he heard this, he walked to the table and glanced at Gang Atai, Gang Atai hurriedly smiled at him, and whispered a Buddha name, Huang Jiucheng ignored him, nodded and said to Cha Min: "Lao Hong, didn't scare you just now, right?" ”
Fu Chamin shook his head: "The more I look, the more I feel that those two scholars are sneaky, and their eyes have never left the General's Mansion, especially when Lord He and they came out, these two people's eyes are about to fall out, I saw that the sister of the Wang family had already prepared, and knew that these two guys couldn't escape, so there was nothing to do." ”
When Huang Jiucheng heard Fu Chamin's words, his face became solemn, and he asked rhetorically, "They have been staring at the General's Mansion?" ”
Fu Chamin nodded, but shouted to the proprietress: "Sister of the Wang family, these two guys must be sent by the Tatar slaves, they can't be wrong, I Lao Hong has been in Liaodong for ten years, and I smell the smell of sheep on their bodies from afar, sister, you have reported meritorious, and you have to invite me Lao Hong to drink a bowl if you get a bonus."
That Wang Qiaoyun laughed proudly, and then shouted at Fu Chamin: "I'm not you, staring at Qian all day long, the adult said, the Tatar slaves like to use the room the most, let them report back, where is our good life?" ”
Huang Jiucheng also smiled slightly when he heard this, turned his head to look at Gang Atai, Gang Atai's heart was shocked, thinking of Fu Chamin's words, he tried his best to keep his face unchanged, and put his legs together.
"Your monk's robe is new, huh?" Huang Jiucheng seemed to say something unconsciously, Fu Chamin looked at Gang Atai with a smile, and did not mean to open his mouth to relieve the siege.
Gang Atai stiffened his head and said in a slightly southern accent: "My lord, the little monk likes to be clean the most, and there are two sets of monk's clothes that must be changed and washed once a day."
Huang Jiucheng became interested, stretched out his hand and said, "What about Du?" Take a look? ”
Just now Atai hurriedly unwrapped the package and handed it over, Huang Jiucheng flipped through it and said casually: "Why Chouhua?" ”
Gang Atai was stunned, Fu Chamin secretly kicked him, and Gang Atai reacted: "Yes, my lord, the name of the little monk and lay family is He Chouhua, who has been a monk for many years, and the common name has been forgotten for a while." ”
Huang Jiucheng nodded, talked and laughed with Fu Chamin, remembered the two scholars, then said goodbye and turned to leave, just Ah Tai secretly touched a handful of sweat, and then felt that the soul returned to the body.
"How?" Fu Chamin looked at Gang Atai with a smile, Gang Atai exhaled, and said in a low voice: "It's dangerous, it's dangerous!" ”
"Therefore, if you want to rebuild the intelligence network, you have to give some grace, and it is the right way to develop a few in the Lushun area, so you don't have to send helpers, send one to die," Fu Chamin said
Gang Atai didn't get angry, but nodded and said: "The matter of rebuilding the intelligence network is according to your opinion, those are not in a hurry for the time being, it's just this gunpowder formula or something, it was the Great Khan who personally asked, it is very important, the Great Khan also personally promised you, as long as you can find out these internal information, I will remember your first merit, and seal your son as the ...... of Lazhangjing."
Just before Atai could finish speaking, he was interrupted, Fu Chamin shook his head and said, "How easy is it to find out the gunpowder formula?" The gunpowder factory is heavily guarded, and the selected craftsmen are all old people who have been transferred from Shandong, not to hide it from the adults, the villain also had this idea at the beginning, but it is useless to approach those craftsmen, only a few people have mastered the formula, and the villain has been in Lushun for so long, and even the names of the craftsmen who have mastered the formula can't be found."
Just when Atai opened his mouth, he never expected Lushun's secrecy work to be so meticulous, based on what he had seen and heard along the way, he sometimes even felt that this Lushun was not the place of the Great Ming Kingdom.
Fu Chamin saw that Gang Atai's face was full of frustration, so he said: "The adults don't have to be anxious, the villain has another important information here, and it happens that the adults are here, so they will directly reveal it to the adults and bring it back, and the Great Khan must be very happy to learn about it."
"The two battalions of the Panshi Brigade have set off, I heard that they are going to aid the Beijing Division, and there are different opinions about the location of the garrison, but it must be Changping, Tongzhou or Tianjin, the two battalions are about 3,000 people, seven or eight artillery pieces, and the equipment is neat, if we meet the Eight Banners, we must be careful to ......"
Gangatai was immediately overjoyed, and said: "This news is urgent, if I don't know about the Eight Banners and bump into the Lushun soldiers headlong, won't I repeat the old story of the Battle of Iron Mountain?" I will go back to-morrow and send someone to inform the Great Khan to prepare carefully. ”
Fu Chamin shook his head: "My lord, before I go back, I have to find some real monks for the villain to come back, if the Dharma in the castle can't be done, the problem will be big......" (to be continued......)
