Chapter 493: Xu Gongzi who is suspected of crossing over
In the face of the sudden rebellion, the civil and military performance of the entire Liudu was even more embarrassing than the last time the Japanese invaders came. The dignified Wei Guogong ran away, and the rest of the civil and military forces closed their doors and became turtles with shrunken heads.
Not to mention what will happen to the imperial court, the gentry and people in Nanjing alone look down on them, at this time, suddenly a person stepped forward and recruited a rebellion, the momentum was like a rainbow, and the big guy was like grabbing a life-saving straw. As soon as they inquired, this person was still Tang Yi, the minister of the Qin Mission, and they were even more excited.
It is worthy of the Wenqu stars in the sky who have descended to earth, that is, they have more ability than those rice buckets, all the gentry and big families, officials of Zhishi, wealthy businessmen, and big guys have all taken action, gathered their subordinates, and gathered from all directions, Tang Yi has more and more people in his hands, and the morale of the rebellious army has been frustrated.
Tan Guang's mouth is skimmed to the sky, who has the ability? No Guogong Shangshu can compare to the adults of our family. Tan Guang only felt that his blood was surging, no matter how many rebels there were in front of him, they were not his opponents.
"Sir, kill!" He excitedly asked for battle.
"Kill you!"
Tang Yi glared at him fiercely, "Stupid, look at these people, which one can fight?" β
In a word, Tan Guang was reminded, and he looked around blankly, although there were many people, the ingredients were too complicated. There are rebels who have just surrendered, officials from the government, families from various provinces, and large family slaves, and even a group of people watching the excitement.
They said that they were a rabble, and they all exalted them.
The ones who really have combat effectiveness are Tang Yi's guards, as for those rebels, if they don't turn against each other in a fight, it's not bad.
Tan Guang's heart that had just surged was all gone, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, which secretly reached Tang Yi's ear. He whispered, "My lord, let's run!" It's okay if we're dead, but you can't have an accident! β
"Don't talk about that unlucky one, none of us will be fine." Tang Yi rolled his eyes and ordered: "You go and give the order and tell all the soldiers and civilians." It is a hundred zhang away from the Yamen of the household department, set up an encirclement, do not go forward, and do not go far. β
"Yes."
Tan Guang obediently went down to make arrangements, and Tang Yi called Yang Ningcai from Shangyuan Zhi County over again.
"You go and pick out some loud officials and shout at the rebels inside, so that everyone can hear clearly."
"Humble duty understands!" Yang Ningcai gritted his teeth and said: "The lowly position will make them surrender quickly, if they don't surrender, they will be dead!" β
Tang Yi rolled his eyes. "Lord Yang, if you are impatient, just shout." Yang Ning was stunned, scratching his head, with a bewildered demeanor. Tang Yi pulled him aside, "Lord Yang, do you know that the fish is dead and the net is broken?" Do you want to fight to the death with the rebels inside? β
Sweat ran down his sideburns, and his face turned pale. Hurriedly shook his head.
"Don't say anything that can't be lowered, tell the people inside. Benchincha was willing to negotiate with them, asking them to send a representative and make a request, and as long as it was reasonable, he would definitely agree to them. β
Yang Ningcai was not stupid, and he understood: "Is it to appease them?" β
"Almost. Try to delay as much time as possible, in short, soften their fighting spirit, divide and disintegrate, and drag on for longer. The more beneficial it is for us. β
"Your Excellency is clever!"
Yang Ning personally led a group of officials to the front of the household and shouted at the top of his voice.
"Brothers inside, don't get excited, Lord Qincha Tang has already said, you are all true heroes of the anti-Japanese war, good men, the court will not treat you badly, don't listen to the instigation of others. Lord Tang is the champion of the six heads, the protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven, Lord Qincha, he is fair and discerning, what else are you worried about? β
β¦β¦
Yang Ningcai tried his best to play Tang Yi's signboard, not to mention it, it did have an effect. First, Tang Yi dealt with the Dou Yu case and accumulated a good image; Second, the six champions, Wen Kuixing in the sky, ordinary soldiers are somewhat in awe of him; Thirdly, these rebels had grievances in their hearts and distrusted the officials in Nanjing, but they had a trace of good thoughts about the distant Emperor Zhu.
Soon, the people inside began to discuss who to send as a representative and what conditions to make.
They were arguing inside, and Tang Yi was observing outside, secretly relieved. What he is most afraid of is that these rebels are desperate and fight, no matter how much ability he has, it is useless.
On the contrary, as long as they are willing to negotiate, they are winners no matter what the negotiation turns out.
Tang Yi's judgment was right, just when the chaotic army had not yet found out the representatives, what Jiangning Governor's Mansion, Yingtian Governor's Mansion, Patrol City Imperial History, the head of the military department, the military governor's mansion, officials large and small, not to mention people, even dogs came running.
If they don't come, their heads will have to move.
At this time, don't care about the size of your official position, and obey Tang Yi's arrangement. Tang Yi was not polite, he assigned officials to surround the rebels from all sides, and waited for them, besieging them without attacking.
Tang Yi clearly knew that the troops in his hands would fight rashly, and it would be difficult for the gutter to capsize. Therefore, he chose to be relatively safe to overpower others, and he firmly believed that time was on his side.
The rebels inside didn't notice Tang Yi's plan at all, they really selected representatives, and Tang Yi also sent people to talk to them. You come and go, and it's time to hold the lamp. Tang Yi was very considerate, and asked people to send gruel to the rebels inside, and steamed tens of thousands of large meat buns, so that everyone could talk after they were full.
In the middle of the night, supper, millet gruel, and white-flour steamed buns were delivered, and the rebels stared at them and stuffed them into their stomachs.
After eating, there were dozens of rebel family members, who stood outside, pulling their throats, telling the people inside that everything was fine, the court did not embarrass them, and they should obey the Qingtian Lord and not make a big mistake.
Hearing the cries one after another, the rebels inside turned soft, tears dripping, and soaked their clothes. Not to mention how much they regret it, if they really lost their lives, what hope does the family have!
After repeated Huairou offensives, the morale of the army was completely shaken and collapsed, and some rebels actually took advantage of the night to sneak out, and Tang Yi was overjoyed when he got the report.
"I finally can't hold on." Tang Yi slapped his thigh excitedly and instructed: "Pass the order, all the sergeants who abandon the darkness and turn to the light, don't be embarrassed, they will be rewarded with five taels of silver and three stones of grain." β
Tan Guang didn't move, wondering: "My lord, where will I get the money and food?" We don't have any of them? β
"Not yet?" Tang Yi's voice raised an octave, and he said angrily: "What about Xu Pengju, he is determined to sacrifice his life and wealth, right?" β
Tang Yi was really angry, and now Xu Pengju is still reluctant to take the money, he is simply an iron rooster.
"Come on, go to the Wei Mansion with this official!"
Just about to leave, suddenly a convoy appeared, from far to near, led by two people, one was Sun Keyuan, the other was not very old, very heroic, wearing bright armor, through the light of the torch, Tang Yi was shocked: how could it be him!
This person jumped off his horse, took a few steps in front of Tang Yi, and respectfully touched the ground on one knee.
"The last general, Xu Bangyang, paid a visit to Lord Qincha."
"It's Xu Gongzi!" Tang Yipi smiled and said, "Why are you here, Ling Zun?" β
"Lord Qiqi, my father is still raising food, and he can't rush over for a while, so he is specially ordered to carry 80,000 taels of silver and 5,000 stone of grain, and come to the emergency situation, if it is not enough, it will be transferred one after another."
Xu Bangyang is humble and calm, and he is completely two people who are flying and domineering at the beginning, and in an instant, Tang Yi wonders if he has also crossed over?
From the inside to the outside, looking carefully, there was nothing unusual, Tang Yi nodded reluctantly, and said, "There is Lao Xu Gongzi, immediately hand over the silver and grain to Lord Yang." β
"Yes!" Xu Bangyang turned around and said goodbye, and led the convoy to Yang Ningcai, the next scene made Tang Yi's jaw drop in shock, Xu Bangyang actually reached out and grabbed a bag of grain, carried it off the car, and moved it to the side to pile it up like the people.
What are you kidding, doesn't this kid have a habit of cleanliness? Isn't it the young master's lamb that Grandpa Guo loves the most? He actually did physical work, and the sun did not come out of the west, but from the south, from the north!
If there are two people before and after, they can bend and stretch, bear hardships and stand hard work, this is a typical crossing symptom!
Could it be that he inadvertently erected a big enemy? At this moment, Tang Yi took out the fire gun and broke Xu Bangyang's impulse.
Sun Keyuan, who was standing next to him, saw the master's surprise, he didn't know the past of these two, and simply sighed: "Master, this Xu Gongzi is not simple. When I went to look for Xu Pengju, he couldn't give up his money and didn't agree to anything. It was Xu Gongzi who stood up, he persuaded Wei Guogong, and Xu Pengju agreed to give 50,000 taels of silver, only the remaining 30,000 taels, and 5,000 stone of grain, which Xu Gongzi took out from his own name. It is rare for a father and son to act so differently! β
Tang Yi felt more and more uncomfortable, "Have you inquired, what happened to this Xu Gongzi, such as suddenly falling into the water, falling into a coma, or being repented of his marriage?" Did he say any nonsense? All in all, what's out of the ordinary? β
Sun Keyuan's face was full of black lines, and he said in his heart, Master, have people offended you, why don't you want to do something good?
"The disciple has inquired, Xu Gongzi is nothing unusual, but more than five years ago, he joined the army alone, under the subordinates of Liu Jingshao, the deputy envoy of the military garrison, I heard that he was brave in battle, full of wisdom, and has been promoted to the general manager of Qian, and he has just broken the Japanese in Miaowan, and his meritorious service is not small." Sun Keyuan said with great admiration: "It is not easy for a child of a family to be willing to start as a small soldier, risk arrows and stones, and go into battle to kill the enemy. β
Tang Yi narrowed his eyes, more than five years, isn't this exactly after the last conflict between himself and Xu Bangyang?
It is said that setbacks make people progress, could it be that it was their own stimulation that made this guy turn upside down? It seems that there is a chance, and it should really be talked about.
The night was busy and tense, with more than 300 rebels surrendering before and after, and rebels scattered elsewhere also surrendered one after another. The chaos in the city is finally over, and the chaotic army at this time, except for the household department, that is, the Zhenwu battalion, is concentrated in two places, and Tang Yi's heart is finally relaxed.
