Outside, the guns were rumbling, and above the lobby of the Yamen, there was a lively chat. Gu Zhenhua also sat with these businessmen who came to complain.
"In the past, we in China always boasted of being the superior country of the Celestial Empire, thinking that we were rich and prosperous, the first in the world, and surrounded by barbarians. But now that Xiyi has crossed the ocean and come to our land, they have brought in ships of silver in exchange for our silk and porcelain, so do you think they are still barbarians? ā
"No, not at all!" Gu Zhenhua waved his fist and said: "On the contrary, they are very rich, they have a lot of gold and silver, these are exactly what we need." According to the old road of Shinong industry and commerce in the past, circling around the land, we will never get rich, and sooner or later we will be caught up by those barbarians. ā
Some well-informed businessmen heard Gu Zhenhua's words and nodded frequently.
"Grandpa Guo, that's right, but what should we do?"
"It's very simple, agriculture and commerce are all the foundation, and the country is based on industry. In the future, the imperial court will protect the merchants, encourage industry, let you go out and make more money, and even grab more overseas plastered land. Why are there rogues? The reason is very simple, is it annexation, in the past, all dynasties wanted to suppress annexation. But don't forget that there are more and more hukou in the world, and even if the gentry and merchants spit out all the land, they can't solve the problem. Only by expanding outward and grabbing more land can we meet the needs. ā
Gu Zhenhua said with a smile: "Maybe you don't understand what's going on for a while, but I hope you understand that Benjue is not trying to eliminate the gentry and merchants, on the contrary, Benjue wants to protect the gentry and make you richer." We want to make the lives of the people of Daming better! ā
Smack, smack, smack......
The applause grew stronger. The eyes of the more than 100 people were all bright. This grandfather of the country is really different from ordinary officials, and what he says has reached his heart, how to listen to it, how to make sense!
At this moment, rumbling war drums suddenly sounded outside.
Gu Zhenhua raised his eyebrows, and suddenly smiled: "Let's wait a little longer, the sky in Huguang is about to change!" ā
Gu Zhenhua walked out of the lobby quickly. Kang Dali asked people to bring over the war horse.
"Grandpa Guo, Captain Xie and Captain Yuan have all come in with men and horses, Zuo Mengeng and they are finished!"
"A bunch of local chickens and tile dogs. It's not worth mentioning, you go to give an order, and anyone who encounters a rebel and harms the people will be killed. No mercy! ā
"Yes."
Gu Zhenhua was surrounded by his entourage. Out of the yamen. At this time, Zhou Yingjie was commanding the troops to launch a counteroffensive. Lu Guangzu and Li Guoying attacked An ** separately. These two generals used all the strength to eat milk, but they couldn't help An ** at all, and they also lost a soldier!
In fact, they are not to blame, Huguang's army is too bad, and the only advantage is the number of people. But in the street fighting, the numerical advantage was suppressed again, and under Gu Zhenhua's care, An ** trained in street fighting. That was definitely ahead of its time.
The soldiers used the ruins of their houses as cover to take advantage of the range of their firearms. Attack the opponent calmly. The corpses on the ground are piled up like a mountain, but they just can't gnaw this hard bone!
Lu Guangzu had already sent all the 500 families under his command, but more than 200 people were killed, and the rest said that they would not rush forward.
The house leak happened to rain overnight, and at this time, the war outside the city was hot, Xie Bin swept Zhang Yingxiang with his men and horses, and killed him in the city.
After Lu Guangzu received the report, he knew very well that the victory was completely gone, and the top priority was to save his life. Therefore, he took the remnants of his family and quietly retreated.
The main general is gone, and the people under him are even more panicked, one runs, two runs, and suddenly it is like an avalanche, and these people are quickly defeated.
An**'s opponent from the beginning was the Tartars, that is, the Guan Ning army, and after getting used to these strong soldiers, he was a little uncomfortable in the face of these garbage.
Zhou Yingjie couldn't help but scold: "What the hell, just died so many people, I can't stand it, Lao Tzu hasn't killed it yet!" Listen, big guys, give me a chase, don't let them go! ā
The soldiers also held back a wave of resentment in their stomachs, and when they received the order, they all screamed. In the direction of the main entrance, Xiong Xin and they rushed to the forefront.
"Don't think about running!" Xiong Xin caught up with a leader in a few steps, and the other party was already frightened, and his men were already dead and wounded when they were charging. In his eyes, Ann ** is a group of deadly Hades.
He was fleeing for his life, Xiong Xin took a few steps, reached his back, raised the three-edged thorn high, and struck hard, just stabbing this guy in the back of the heart, and suddenly a bloody arrow shot out, and the body fell to the ground, convulsed for a while, and lost his life.
"Follow me, don't let them go!"
The dozen or so enemy troops in front were chased and cornered, so they could only turn around. The guys gritted their teeth and said breathlessly: "Everyone is a soldier, why don't you forgive, don't forget that the dog jumps over the wall in a hurry!" ā
They were so frightened that they couldn't use words, Xiong Xin sneered: "If you have the ability, you can jump off the wall, and if you don't have the ability, you will leave your life behind!" ā
Xiong Xin said, holding the bayonet, he stabbed it, and the other party jumped away dangerously, and gave Xiong Xin a knife with a wave of his hand. According to common sense, Xiong Xin should have withdrawn the bayonet and defended, but he did not do so, but pierced the bayonet again, this time more ruthless and faster!
"Boy, you don't want to die!" The other party screamed in fright.
He saw that he really couldn't dodge, but fortunately he really died together, he gritted his teeth and slashed at the bear's heart. But just when his knife was still more than a foot away from Xiong's heart, a three-edged thorn suddenly appeared in front of him.
Clang!
The knife was shaken to the ground, and the three-edged thorn in Xiong Xin's hand had pierced into the opponent's chest.
"Stupid, will you fight with you as Lao Tzu? Brethren, go up together! ā
An **'s strong coordination ability was vividly wielded, although the other party was a large number of people, although he had rich experience in fighting, but it was useless, in less than a quarter of an hour, there were already more than a dozen corpses in front of Xiong Xin.
They were covered in blood, and their intestines were still hanging from the triangular thorns. It's like a ghost crawling out of hell. Rushing forward, the other party did not dare to fight at all, or ran away. Either kneel down and surrender.
In the front door, An** is like a bamboo, and it is the same in the back, Li Guoying was repaired even worse by the grenadiers, and the elite of his subordinates was lost, and he couldn't care about the pain on his body, so he could only lie on the back of the horse and run away desperately.
But just as he was running forward. Suddenly, the war horse let out a mournful roar and fell to the ground. It turned out that the war horse was shot in the ass and was beaten to a bloody pulp.
Li Guoying fell heavily to the ground. He struggled to get up, but he had injuries to one leg and one wrist, and it was extremely difficult.
"Bastard, you all come to help Lao Tzu. There is no Lao Tzu. Don't think about it! ā
He cried out heartbreakingly, and finally a few family members ran over to save him. But a few safety ** rushed out not far away, the fire bolt sounded, and the soldiers who rushed to the front fell off their horses, and the rest of the people suddenly changed color when they saw it!
This is not a joke, it has come to this time. Who is willing to exchange their lives for Li Guoying.
"Stay put, let's go first!"
They fled. was so angry that Li Guoying scolded bitterly, and all the ugly words came out, but there was no way at all. He could only use his hands and feet at the same time, and ran into the alley with a rolling belt.
But Luo Xiaoyu and the others had already rushed behind him, Luo Xiaoyu flew up and kicked Li Guoying's waist, this guy sighed, fell to the ground, and became a prisoner of An **.
On the other side, Yuan Zongdi and Li Wanqing led people to catch Zuo Mengeng, and they escorted the young marshal to the periphery of the Yamen of the Imperial Envoy, and they happened to collide with Gu Zhenhua.
"Grandpa Guo, I didn't disgrace my mission and caught Zuo Mengeng!"
Gu Zhenhua hurriedly flashed his eyes, only to see a few soldiers pushing and shoving, pushing a young man in front of him, his helmet was gone, his armor was scattered, unkempt, and his shoulders were still bleeding.
"Hahaha, Zuo Mengeng, you have become a prisoner of Benjue, how do you feel?"
"Gu Zhenhua, you are despicable!" Zuo Mengeng said unceremoniously: "From the very beginning, sell weapons to Huguang, that merchant was sent by you, instigated us to fight, and then you took advantage of the fisherman!" ā
"You're not too stupid, now you've finally figured it out, but Ben Jue told you, your father and son have been doing evil for many years, this is called full of evil, and it's time to reckoning!"
Gu Zhenhua looked left and right, and sneered: "Escort Zuo Mengeng to the barracks and prepare for a public trial!" ā
"Gu Zhenhua, you can't do this to me, I am the Duke of Eguo, and I am sealed by the imperial court, you don't have this power!"
Zuo Mengeng was still shouting, someone had already taken a black rag and didn't know what it was for, and stuffed it directly into his mouth.
At this time, Li Wanqing also hurried to Gu Zhenhua's face, knelt down and kowtowed.
"The villain mistakenly followed the Zuo father and son, and he was deeply guilty, and he asked Grandpa Guo to atone for his sins!"
"General Li, get up, it's not too late for the so-called prodigal son to turn back. You've caught the last chance! Gu Zhenhua said: "Listen, immediately control the whole city, arrest all the defeated soldiers for me, especially those generals, try to capture them alive, they are responsible for their own viciousness!" ā
As soon as he heard Gu Zhenhua's words, Li Wanqing's heart trembled, it seemed that he was lucky and escaped the catastrophe, thinking about the methods of this Ji Guogong's rectification, what would happen to those who fell into his hands, it was unimaginable!
Zuo Mengeng was caught, and the battle in the city had come to an end. An** stands out on all sides, mainly to arrest people. There were too many captives, so they could only be temporarily taken to an open space outside the city, dark and oppressive, with no end in sight.
Zuo Liangyu hasn't done much good things over the years, but he has collected a lot of people. However, Zuo Mengeng later surrendered to the Tartars with 200,000 soldiers, and all of them became the vanguard and lackeys of the Tartars.
Now that the warlord group of Huguang has been eradicated, it is equivalent to reducing another disaster for the land of China!
The battle lasted for almost half a day, collecting the rout, capturing the prisoners, and busy all night. Among the original 300,000 horses, he fought with Wang Yuncheng and lost 20,000 or 30,000, and after deducting the 670,000 horses and horses who returned to Shun such as Ma Jinzhong, Li Wanqing, and Jin Shenghuan, Zuo Mengeng still had at least 15 people in his hands.
After a chaotic battle, An ** killed at least 10,000 people, captured more than 100,000, and another 30,000 or 40,000 escaped.
I can't cover the sky with a big hand, after all, there are only five regiments, and it is quite good to be able to catch so many people, but Gu Zhenhua is not satisfied.
"Listen, these rebels are potential bandits, even traitors! We must not tolerate them, immediately arrange manpower, and chase them separately for me, and we must eliminate them to the greatest extent. ā
"Grandpa Guo, you see that we don't have enough manpower, can we reward the heroes from all over the world and let them come forward to help arrest them!" Wu Kaijie built yƬ road.
Gu Zhenhua nodded without hesitation: "Yes, you can arrange it immediately." ā
At this time, Ma Jinzhong and Jin Shengheng rushed over, followed by a middle-aged general behind them.
"Grandpa Guo, this is Deng Wenhuan, the chief soldier of the Navy, he is the fourth grandson of Deng Zilong and Lord Deng, with a family history, and several people are familiar with water warfare!"
When Gu Zhenhua heard this, he hurriedly took the initiative to laugh and said: "I have long heard that the loyal martyrs of the ancestors went to Korea to fight against the Japanese in that year, and General Deng died on the battlefield, which can be called tragic. I heard that the Japanese Kou had cut off Lord Deng's rank, I have already told Shen Tingyang to ask him to pay attention to the situation in Japan, as long as he finds the whereabouts of the head, he will act immediately, whether it is to send troops or spend money, in short, let Lord Deng's bones be complete! ā
When Deng Wenhuan heard this, he knelt on the ground, tears flowing, this tough guy cried like a child. Deng Zilong is the god of their descendants! As soon as Gu Zhenhua opened his mouth, he said this, and Deng Wenhuan was suddenly felt.
"Ji Guogong, how many years, the court didn't think about returning to the head of the ancestors, my descendants of the Deng family have forgotten about it, but you can take it to heart, lowly duty, lowly on behalf of the Deng family, thank you for your great kindness!"
Bang bang bang!
Deng Wenhuan kowtowed. Ma Jinzhong and Jin Shenghuan on the side also nodded secretly, and the two of them spent a lot of time to persuade Deng Wenhuan. It's just that Deng Wenhuan is upright and doesn't like An **, they are afraid that this guy will cause trouble. How do you know that Gu Zhenhua's few words moved him to this point, this person is really incomparable!
"General Deng, you get up first, since you are still leading the sailor, it should fall on your shoulders to get back the matter of Lord Deng. Be a good man who runs rampant all over the world and exalts overseas! ā
"Thank you, Grandpa Guo!" Deng Wenhuan wiped his tears and said loudly: "The 18,350 brothers in the Sailor Battalion are all obeying the orders of Grandpa Guo!" ā
For three days in a row, people from all walks of life also came back, and the city of Wuchang gradually became quiet, and the blood and water on the streets were cleaned up.
The trembling people came to the streets, but a notice awaited them.
"Listen, Zuo's father and son have been in trouble for many years, and they have done all the evil things, and Ji Guogong decided to put them on trial and judgment. It's on the edge of the Yangtze River, if you want to cut off your head, let's go and see it! (To be continued......)
