Chapter 866: Wang Tong is in Linqingzhou

"General Qi understands it. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Wang Tong naturally understood the words relayed by Qi Wu, but he came to the current situation step by step, not because he wanted to do this, which was helpless.
"Qi Dashuai also said that many of the pro-soldiers and generals he grinded down are accustomed to the north, and they are all old, and it is inconvenient to live in Guangdong, and they miss the north, and I heard that the Guihua City recruited these veterans and veterans to serve as caravan guards, and they also want to ask for personal favors with Hou Ye, and want to settle those people over."
"What kind of favor is this, you come to tell me this, there are already a lot of veterans and veterans on the road, just stuff them into the Sanjiang Commercial Bank."
Wang Tong opened his mouth and said, Qi Wu smiled and agreed there, Wang Tong's place of residence is far away from the Linyu Shi Canal Wharf, and there is also a distance from the city, it is a quiet place with beautiful scenery, the end of September is already late autumn, the climate is quite pleasant, Wang Tong is very suitable for recuperation here, he and Qi Wu said this, and then said: "You go to the paperwork and ask how the fold is written, and show it to me." ”
As soon as he said this, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and Han Gang hurriedly walked into the house, saluted and said, "Master Hou, there is news from the south of the Yangtze River, saying that there is a big incident in Songjiang Mansion......"
The Xu family in Songjiang is the instigator behind Liao Lang, the dragon king of Taihu Lake, not many people know about this matter, and in the eyes of most people, the Xu family, who represents the local gentry, and Liao Lang, the leader of the bandits, are incompatible.
After Qin Cha left, the Dragon King of Taihu Lake, who had disappeared for a while, suddenly appeared, contacted the outlaws everywhere, and said that he wanted to avenge the Puyuan monk.
To say that the monk Puyuan has a relationship with this Liao Lang, few people believe it, but Songjiang Xufu is one of the richest in the world, and if he really wants to break his family, there must be inexhaustible benefits.
There are thousands of Taihu pirates controlled by Liao Lang, and it is rumored that they are all military training, which is very elite, and it should not be a big problem for these thousands of elites to break through a rich family.
Such a big event, it is difficult to make a big profit, but it is definitely beneficial to fish in troubled waters, and Liao Lang left the silver first, this kind of style is more convincing, if there is no prospect of making a big profit, how can he be so willing to spend.
In Liao Lang's team that day, there were quite a few people planted by the Xu family, but after that battle, a number of people were killed and wounded, and the group that fled back was also sent away by the Xu family, for fear of revealing flaws.
Without these people, the news of what Liao Lang really did was well concealed, not to mention that Liao Lang had been in the dark for many years, and the outlaws he sent people to invite were also lawless, but they didn't know much about the news here.
There are many people who will be suspicious of such a big case, but Liao Lang spent money for nothing, and deceived people to set up a trick and did not take the cash, everyone believed it.
The waterways and lakes are dotted all over the south of the Yangtze River, and the big bandits hide in the waterways and use the waterways to operate, and no one will be discovered at all.
And what makes these outlaws recruited by Liao Lang more sure of this matter is that it is said that there are also many characters on the sea who want to participate, and the area south of the Yangtze River, the land and sea are quite closely connected, and the news on the sea has also been heard from time to time, and when I heard that those pirates were also going to do this, I felt more sure while admiring Liao Lang's vast travel.
Pirates are no better than these outlaws on the mainland, pirates do not obey the king's law, crisscross the sea, and claim the king on the sea, compared to pirates, Liao Lang and other bandits on the lake and river are much worse.
Compared with Liao Lang's recruitment, Sha Dongning's convening staff is much more rigorous, but it is also much more efficient.
When Wang Tong left Tianjin Wei, the two gunboats Feilu and Zhenhai also left from Tianjin Wei Port and went all the way south.
Among the various forces of Wang Tong, the Huwei Army is the forbidden army system, the Jinyi Wei Division is the internal security system, the army and internal guard of the Ming Dynasty, their supreme commander is the son of the Ming Dynasty, and even the Tianjin Division is the financial and taxation agency sent by the Ming Dynasty.
But the fleets at sea are different, and the armed merchant ships starting from the Feilu are all private property in Wang Tong's name, and it is Wang Tong who pays them salaries and dividends.
Moreover, the composition of the fleet at sea is mostly pirates lured by Wang Tong's coercion and profit, these people were lawless in the past, and they were willing to say it back then, and now they are unwilling to go away from the nourishment and obedience of living on the ship.
This kind of Wang Tong's order is a holy decree, and it is natural to order to move, and since Sha Dacheng led people back and forth between Liaozhen and Tianjin Wei, many of Sha Dacheng's sailors have also joined Wang Tong's fleet.
This time, the ships went south, and the crews and sailors on the two armed merchant ships specially arranged a lot of Sha Dacheng's men, also for the convenience of the nearest place.
Sha Dacheng's fleet was originally active in Zhejiang and Fujian, and Songjiang also often came and went, and the Sha family had a very high status at sea, and the large and small forces that were active at sea in this area had to give some face.
This Sha Dongning first contacted the two sea ships, and then drove directly to Hangshi Mansion and Ningbo Mansion, recruiting along the way.
Not to mention the reputation of the Sha family in Haishi, not to mention the tempting of the Xu family's goal, Sha Dongning left a lot of silver, which is enough to make people tempted.
There is a thing quite interesting, on land, the people recruited by Liao Lang heard that there were strong men on the sea to join, and they all felt confident, and the people on the sea heard that there were people from Liao Lang to join, and they also felt that there were local snakes on the waterway to participate, and the grasp was much greater, and they had more confidence in each other.
The monk Puyuan was killed, and the disciples were arrested and put in prison, the Xu family didn't pay attention to it at all, but sent the people they contacted away, Liao Lang was silent, and the Xu family also sent the people who contacted him away.
The Xu family was safe and sound in this investigation, but it also made a cadre a little chilled, everyone fought for you to live and die, your Xu family didn't care about it at all, but said that it would be lost, but what really scared everyone was Wang Tong's means, from Nanjing all the way to Songjiang, how many people died along the way.
Those famous characters in Pingsuli were all cleaned up like chopping melons and vegetables in front of Wang Tong's personal guards, and there was a river of blood along the way, and the people were not finished in the past, and the local government was checked like a sieve, and everyone made a fortune with each other on weekdays, and they all gave each other a face.
This time Wang Tong ordered, no one cared, the five tigers of the Zhao family in Suzhou, the role of Su Shi rampant in Pingsuli, Wang Tong was put in prison with a word, and the people in Su Shi Mansion were afraid that some things would be exposed, so they were emaciated to death in the prison that night, and they reasoned there.
If you want to say that after Wang Tong's assassination, quietly go back to the north, things should be stopped, who would have thought that the Jinyiwei in Nanjing and the local began to pull the net, it is said that the Beijing side also sent people to supervise, the local is like a gust of wind, everyone must do things honestly, dare not take the lead, or they don't know how to die.
In such a situation, naturally no one asked the Xu family for news, and the Xu family also felt that this time the evil turned into good fortune, the Xu family didn't have to do anything, just waited quietly, then Wang Tong couldn't find any fault, so he could only leave in a huff, why bother to pay attention to these lower nine streams who can't get on the table and will only do bad things.
Although there is already a faint news circulating on the ground in the south of the Yangtze River, no one has reached the Xu family, and the Xu family is unwilling to pay attention to it, and you have the audacity to say that you should also consider the fierceness of Liao Lang and the pirates.
……
In September, Songjiang also has a bit of a chill in the morning and evening, and occasionally it starts to fog.
According to the legends of the farmers in the countryside, this fog comes from the sea, and there are demons hidden in it, and if people walk outside, they will be caught and eaten.
However, when the fog is foggy, it is night, everyone rests at home, and they will not go out to hang out, and the demon's words are just to scare the children when they talk about it, and if there are really demons, there are no people living in the shed of the field in this weather, and those people are not eaten by any demons.
Ten miles south of the Huating Pavilion in Songjiang Fucheng, there is a shack next to the river, it is said that there is nothing to steal in the field this season, Li Laohan sleeps here is a picture, to say that there are demons in this fog, Li Laohan does not believe it, he has slept like this for decades, and it is not good.
I drank two pots of old wine with dried fish, and fell asleep in the shed, and I don't know what time it was at night, this Li Laohan was awakened by the movement in the night, and probed out of the shack, but saw that there seemed to be light on one side, and when I looked closely, it was two red lights that were approaching this side.
At this time, there was already a mist, and the shadows were not clear at night, only the two points of red light floating, if it was a lantern, it would not be so far away and go hand in hand, could it be a big snake Thinking of this, Li Laohan broke out in cold sweat, trembling and fell to the ground, and he didn't dare to take a breath.
Calculating that the "big snake" was going to pass, Li Laohan, who didn't dare to look up, seemed to hear the sound of horses' hooves and the sound of paddling in the river and soil, which was even more weird......
The sound of horses' hooves is far away, and the sound of oars scraping water on the river has passed for a long time, Li Laohan trembled on the ground and did not dare to move, at this time his brain was a little sober, but he remembered that he had heard that if there was fog in the boat at night, someone on the shore should be guided by a lantern, could it be that the two points of red light on the net were the lanterns on both sides of the river, just thinking of this, but he heard a muffled sound in the direction of Fucheng, as if it was thunder, and it should not rain in the sky?
"The shells must be found, and all the places where the shells fly must be dismantled and burned"
Sha Dongning's face was covered with a cloth, and he said in a deep voice, the people around him all agreed loudly, not far away, the gate of Xufu had been blasted open, and the shouts and cries inside had already sounded, and a large number of murderers with weapons rushed in!
