Chapter Thirty-Eight: Jeju Changes

After Huang An came out of the camp in Shijie Village, he fled to Yuncheng County on horseback.

Seeing the rout along the way, they asked them to gather their men and horses and go to Yuncheng County.

Huang An hurried to Yuncheng County, and it was already afternoon.

There were already some horse soldiers in the city who had fled back first, and they were all shouting at the hotels and teahouses in the city.

The people of the city closed their doors, and the people who worked in the streets went into hiding.

but like a thief entering the city.

Huang An ignored the Ma Jun in the store and came straight to the county office.

After walking for a while, I saw dozens of men in front of me.

The first three people, the face in the center is black and the body is short, and the big man on the left is eight feet four or five long, with a tiger beard, one foot and five inches long, the face is like a heavy jujube, and the eyes are like Lang Xing, and the raw one looks like Guan Yun. The man on the right is seven feet five inches long, with a purple begonia skin and a fan-circled beard.

The black man in Huang Anzhi is a priest in Yuncheng County, who is called Song Jiang in time.

Although he is just a small official, he is the head snake of the county, no matter who is the magistrate of the county, he must rely on him in order to smooth the decree of Yuncheng County.

Huang Anwei has been a general for many years, and he also knows some things about officialdom, and many states and counties have local big families as officials, although these officials are not in the stream, but the more powerful ones can coerce officials.

Many civil officials did not have a good face for the military generals, but they did not dare to despise these officials, just because local government affairs depended on these officials.

Song Jiang glanced at the horse army riding in the distance, and did not recognize Huang An, who had been stripped of his armor and changed his horse, but thought that it was an ordinary horse army who had lost his armor and abandoned his armor, and let the male in the back stay outside, and only took Zhu Tong and Lei Heng into the restaurant where Xiao'er had just been asked to report to the official.

More than a dozen forbidden soldiers in the store sat at three tables, still scolding.

The shopkeeper cowered and hid aside, and there were two slap marks on his face, apparently having been beaten before.

Seeing Song Jiang and the two of them coming in, he shouted as if he saw a savior: "Oshi." ”

A forbidden soldier who was eating wine raised his head, looked at the black dwarf man who came first, and said with a smile: "Oshi? Even if the magistrate is here, the old men also want to eat and drink. ”

Another forbidden soldier also looked at Song Jiang mockingly: "When you ask for wine money, you have to wait for General Huang to come back, and we don't have it at this time." ”

Song Jiang arched his hand and said: "Song Jiang is not here to ask everyone for wine, but to invite everyone to move to the barracks to eat wine." Everyone went to Liangshan to suppress thieves, also so that the people would not be disturbed by thieves, how do we not know. The county will work with the big families in the city to pay for the purchase of wine and meat for everyone and send it to the camp. Please also ask everyone to move to the barracks, lest there will be too many people coming back later, and they will all eat and drink in the city, and it will be difficult to clean up when something happens. ”

More than a dozen forbidden soldiers originally thought that these Yuncheng County officials were here to get them, and they were not afraid of a fight, but they didn't expect Song Jiang to invite them to the barracks to eat and drink.

The forbidden soldiers looked at each other, and one got up with his head and said, "Since Abshige said so, then we will all go to the barracks and wait for General Huang." But the money for wine here? ”

Song Jiang saw that these forbidden soldiers were willing to leave, and said with a smile: "I'll take care of the wine money here, if it weren't for the fact that there was something in the yamen, Song Jiang should invite everyone to eat again." ”

The forbidden army for the head arched his hand and said: "Song Zhisi is bold, our brother is not a rude person, we will go with you to tell the horse army who came back first to go to the barracks to eat and drink." ”

Song Jiang was also a little worried about running into a ruffian, and when he saw someone in the army speaking for him, he hurriedly bowed his hand and said, "Song Jiang thanked you on behalf of the people in the city. ”

"Well said, well said."

When Huang An rode to the front, he was also a little surprised when he saw Song Jiang and more than a dozen forbidden soldiers walking out talking and laughing.

These forbidden soldiers don't have eggs when they encounter strongmen, but they don't talk so well to others.

"General Huang!"

Song Jiang and the forbidden army at the head walked out into the street, and they were taking a photo with Huang An, and they were also full of accidents.

The forbidden army behind saw Huang An and hurriedly saluted.

Huang An nodded at Song Jiang, didn't want to pay attention to what happened, and shouted at the forbidden army: "Pass my order, everyone who enters the city will go back to the barracks, and all violators will be beheaded for public display." ”

"Yes."

Seeing that Huang An was angry, those forbidden soldiers hurriedly responded and went separately to inform the forbidden troops in the city.

Song Jiang was also relieved when he saw that Huang An had passed on the general's order, and stepped forward and arched his hand: "Song Jiang has seen General Huang. ”

Huang An nodded in reply, then kicked his horse and walked forward.

After today's battle, he also knew that the Liangshan strongman was not something he could deal with, and if he stayed any longer, he would die sooner or later, so it was better to ask for punishment and transfer to other places.

Since he was not going to serve as an official in Jeju, he didn't bother to talk much to this little official.

Huang An walked to the county government and returned to the barracks.

That night, the retreating soldiers and horses basically returned to Yuncheng County, and no one dared to flee without permission except for those killed by the Liangshan soldiers and horses.

The law does not blame the public, and there is not much of a sin in fleeing on the battlefield, but if you become a deserter, you will not be stabbed if you are caught.

The six battalions suffered less than 100 casualties, but most of their armor was lost, which was similar to the previous situation.

The next day, Huang An ordered the soldiers and horses of each battalion to return to their defensive positions.

The soldiers and horses of the 3rd Battalion of Jeju were also assigned to be led by a military attachΓ©, and he hurried back to Jeju on horseback.

When he arrived in Jeju, Huang An went straight to the government office, saw Zhizhou, and said that the Liangshan thieves were very good, and it was difficult for him to arrest the Liangshan thieves, and he lost his troops and generals, so he was willing to write a letter to confess his guilt, and asked the imperial court to send another military future to guard Jeju.

Jeju Zhizhou got the news of Huang An's defeat last night, but he didn't expect the Liangshan thieves to be so powerful, and Huang An, who was born in martial arts, wanted to escape.

The matter of Liangshan thieves robbing Cai Zhen has reached Tokyo, but fortunately, Liangshan thieves are in the previous Xiaoju, and he can shirk one or two.

However, this defeat had to be punished by the imperial court, and Huang An wrote a letter to ask for guilt just to give the court an explanation.

If you change a general, you can't say that you can still exterminate the Liangshan bandits, which is better than Huang Anqiang, who has no fighting spirit.

Thinking of this, Jeju Zhiju did not hide the defeat with Huang An like his predecessor.

After some discussion, the two each wrote a plea.

After more than ten days, an official document came from the imperial court, and Huang An returned to Beijing to await trial, and the Privy Council sent another person to guard Jeju.

After more than ten days, the new Jeju regimental training envoy arrived.

Before the military general arrived in Jeju, he heard that the strongmen of Liangshan were doing the way for heaven and robbing the rich to help the poor, and after arriving in Jeju and inquiring about the details of Huang An's defeat, he did not dare to indiscriminately respond to Zhizhou.

Zhizhou also knew that the Jeju forbidden army was not helpful, so he did not urge the new general, but asked him to reorganize his soldiers and horses, and after training his soldiers, he went to capture the Liangshan thieves, so as not to be defeated again. At the same time, he sent a document to the counties in the territory, ordering them to guard the territory and be careful of the Liangshan thieves coming to loot again.

After Yangsan robbed Sanguchi Town and Hachae Town, most of the big families in Jeju moved to Jeju, and the rest moved to the nearest counties.
