179 Dog Officer
At the local level, with the imperial history of the right capital of the Imperial Court and the squire of the military department, the governor of Shaanxi was caught off guard by this, and he was inexplicably frightened by current affairs.
He is already 76 years old, proficient in medicine, especially in gynecology, and is the author of "Jiyin Compendium" and "Jiyang Compendium". As for the administration and military affairs, they are completely laymen.
When he succeeded Yuan Keli as the governor of Denglai, he changed Yuan Keli's countermeasures, and had a stalemate with Mao Wenlong, the chief soldier of Dongjiang Town, and the relationship was extremely poor, and finally had to be transferred.
When he came to the post of the governor of the three sides, he withheld military salaries, so that the Guyuan garrison under his nose mutinied because of lack of salary.
After a series of events such as the mutinous army robbing the state treasury and attacking Jingyang, Fuping, and Sanyuan, and the guerrilla Li Ying being captured, he saw the fate of the former governor of Shaanxi and the former governor of Yansui, and finally committed suicide at the end of the first year of Chongzhen.
The commanders of the general army in various localities did not dare to stand idly by and watch any longer, and finally sent troops to suppress them, but caused the mutinous soldiers to flee in all directions, thus greatly strengthening the strength of the Shaanxi rebel contingent at the end of the Ming Dynasty.
In the Ming court, both the Donglin Party and the Chu Party were surprised when they heard the news. The seriousness of the matter in Shaanxi is beyond their imagination. After several parties discussed, there was a compromise soon, and finally asked Emperor Chongzhen to send the right attendant of the military department and Yang He, the imperial historian of the capital, to replace the position of Wu Zhiwang, the governor of the three sides.
Of course, that's all for later, and things are still developing gradually.
At noon on this day, although the sun was already high in the sky, the climate was still unusually cold. The water of the Yellow River has been frozen for many days, and people and horses will not be able to travel to and from the river.
At the downstream ferry, which is about 30 miles away from Baode Prefecture in Shanxi, it is rare for people to be buzzing. If you look closely, it is an army stationed on the shore, driving a group of people to pave the road on the ice of the Yellow River with dead grass and branches.
These people wore everything, but even so, when the cold wind blew, they were still shivering from the cold.
Near them, there were men in green clothes and felt hats, who were also holding sticks, supervising them. One of them seems to be the leader. He was still urging loudly: "Hurry up, move faster, don't let the governor wait for a long time." It's freezing on this day, just in case it freezes the governor. Do you want this cheap life? ”
Suddenly, an older man threw himself on the ice with a thud. When the others gathered around to look, they were chased away by those with sticks. After a little look, he told the leader, "Steward Hou." That old man Wang is out of breath! ”
"If it's not angry, it's out of gas, what's the fuss, just pull it aside." With an impatient expression, Steward Hou waved his hand casually and continued to urge them to supervise the work of those people.
After a long while, the road was finally paved to the other side of the Yellow River. When the steward saw this, he immediately slipped away to the shore.
He saw that his master was accompanying the governor on the side of the sedan chair, and hurriedly went over to whisper with a smiling face: "Master, it has been spread to the other side." ”
This old man's name is Ye Tianlong, and he is only five or six miles away from the ferry port. As soon as he heard the steward's advice, he looked up at himself. Immediately approached the sedan chair, regardless of whether the people inside could see it or not, it was already full of flattering smiles, and carefully said: "The road has been paved, tired adults have been waiting for a long time!" ”
After a while, a middle-aged male voice came from inside, and he couldn't hear whether he was happy or unhappy, but said lightly: "Yes, it's bothered after all!" When the official arrives, he will write a letter to the same year as the capital teacher. ”
Ye Tianlong was overjoyed when he heard it. Another bunch of gratitude mixed with sycophants blurted out. But the people in the sedan chair ignored him, and there was only the movement of pedaling the sedan chair.
"Your Excellency has an order, let's go!" The people on the side immediately shouted, and the crowd surged. Escorted the sedan chair to start crossing the Yellow River.
Seeing that the old man ignored the cold wind, the steward Hou was still smiling and sending it off, so he smiled and patted his ass and said: "Master, with the letter of the governor and the relationship between the uncle in Beijing, it will definitely be possible." ”
At this time, the tail of the official army had reached the center of the river. And no one paid attention to them. Ye Tianlong turned around and walked towards a four-person sedan chair parked on the side of the road, and instructed Steward Hou: "Go back, a few more will freeze to death, and there will be a few fewer laborers in the field next year." ”
At this time, at a bend a few miles upstream of the ferry, several people were showing their heads and using binoculars to see the situation just now.
"Childe, he is another dog official who doesn't treat the common people as people. Halfway through the river just now, we will be able to defeat them. Liu Daneng first put down the telescope and said with a little hatred.
Hu Guang also put down the binoculars and sighed slightly, you can really see this kind of thing anywhere.
He turned his head to look at Liu Daneng and replied, "Look at the sign that opened the way, it should be the new governor of Yansui." brought so many people to escort himself to office, and took this road to avoid Fugu County. It can be seen that this dog official is just a mediocre person who can get by. ”
"If we attack them, not to mention whether those officers and soldiers will resist desperately for fear of the governor's mistake, even if we win them, it will not do us any good."
"Why, at least one dog officer can be killed!" When Liu Daneng heard this, he asked puzzledly.
Hu Guang turned around and walked towards the team not far away, while explaining to Liu Daneng, who was following him: "The more mediocre and incompetent the governor of Yansui is, the more beneficial it will be for us, after all, our current strength is too weak. I guess according to the temperament of this dog official, I guess he is also the kind who can't work hard, and he won't actively deal with us, this is one of them. ”
Speaking of this, he turned his head to look at Li Dingguo beside him, and saw that he was listening carefully, and secretly praised in his heart, and then turned back and continued: "Second, even if we lose many brothers and kill that dog official, but after all, this is a high-ranking official like the governor, who died in our hands, even if it is for the sake of the face of the imperial court, we must concentrate our forces and energy to exterminate us first." ”
"We are not strong enough, although we can make a splash, but it is not desirable. At present, the most suitable for us is the countermeasures used by Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang. ”
Hu Guang suddenly stopped, turned around and faced Liu Daneng and Li Dingguo, who were following him on the left and right: "Build a high wall, accumulate grain, and slowly become king!" ”
As soon as he said this, he immediately remembered the biggest problem that had been buried in his heart. Build a high wall, build a high wall, where do we tell the heavenly army to go and build a high wall?
I have confirmed one from Yan'an Mansion. There is too little information available to measure it. However, as you can imagine, even if it is confirmed that it is more suitable as a base than Fugu, it will definitely be difficult.
His brows couldn't help frowning, he turned back, waved his hand and said, "Let's go, act according to the plan, clean him up first." (To be continued.) )
