Volume 2 Half Landscape and Half Fate 113 Take the initiative
Ye Shengyu sneered: "This official is new at any time, but Lord Qiu's voice has also been heard. The so-called 'friends are open, friendly and soft, friends are good, and they are damaged', people like Lord Qiu's are really unwilling to make friends. Let's go back! ”
(The Analects of Ji)
This is Ye Shengyu using the words of Sage Kong's "three bad friends" to insult Qiu Yizhi, the Qiu Yizhi in question can still maintain restraint, but Lin Shuhan next to him is already furious.
I saw him take a step forward and say: "Lord Ye is really familiar with the sayings of the sage, so Han Sheng wants to ask the Lord what does it mean to say 'the benevolent must have courage'?" What does it mean to be 'not righteous and courageous'? I don't think the adults have any idea of counterinsurgency, but they are afraid of the fierceness of the Japanese and the power of Lord Qiu to quell the rebellion, and they want to be a turtle with a shrunken head here. What do the benevolence, righteousness, and courage in the mouth of the saints have to do with adults? ”
He scolded not enough, and then scolded: "The lord guards the pastoral side, and the people in the jurisdiction are poisoned, which is unkind; It is unjust for a colleague to give aid and not receive it; Sitting in the study did not dare to quell the rebellion, because it was not brave. How can an unkind, unjust, and courageous official like you, with so many sage books, just read them in the belly of a dog, how can he be the parents of a common people? ”
Ye Shengyu was scolded by him so that his face was blue and white, and he stumbled for a long time before he squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "You...... How dare you insult the imperial court...... Know...... Convicted? ”
"Humph!" Lin Shuhan snorted again, "Like you, you dare to claim to be an official of the imperial court?" It's just a beetle! You don't have to painstakingly investigate Han Sheng's identity, I am Lin Shuhan, and I seem to be a little famous in Jiangnan, and if the adults want to arrest me, they will do it. Hansheng is still busy, so I won't accompany him! ”
With that, Lin Shuhan turned around and was about to walk out the door.
Lin Shuhan's words were exactly what Qiu Yizhi wanted to say but couldn't say because of the official voice, and he also felt very comfortable after listening carefully, and almost mocked Ye Shengyu and said, "I'm not going to accompany you, we'll have a date later." With that, he beckoned Yu Chi Jiming to leave.
Halfway through, Qiu Yizhi turned his head again and added to Ye Shengyu, who was sitting behind the desk: "This fake widow, I don't want to be lowly anymore, just leave it to the adults to report the credit." Then he looked up to the sky and laughed.
Ye Shengyu didn't know which nerve was touched by Qiu Yizhi, so he suddenly became angry, picked up the inkstone on the table, slapped it on the table, and shouted: "Joke! I'm here where you say you want to come? Just go? Come on, these people are suspected of being a gangster, arrest them for me! ”
When Qiu Yizhi heard this, he turned his head, a contemptuous smile rose on the corner of his mouth, ignored Ye Shengyu at all, and walked straight out of the door.
Ye Shengyu saw that he didn't take himself in his eyes at all, and his heart was even more annoyed, and he shouted: "Wu Changxi, are you stupid?" Don't hurry up and arrest these people for me! ”
Wu Changxi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, hurriedly took a step up, and made a gesture to Ye Shengyu: "Lord Ye, this Lord Qiu also has a relationship with the last general, I dare to guarantee with my life, Lord Qiu will never secretly communicate with the Japanese." ”
Wu Changxi's words were extremely polite, but when Ye Shengyu heard them, they were very harsh, and he scolded loudly: "You are a martial artist, what do you know?" If I tell you to catch it, you will catch it! Give me less noise here! ”
The so-called official level crushed people to death, Wu Changxi couldn't listen to the unmistakable order of his boss Ye Shengyu, so he hurriedly caught up with Qiu Yizhi, and greeted more than a dozen soldiers around him, and surrounded the three of Qiu Yizhi.
Seeing this, Yu Chi Ji immediately stepped forward, protected in front of Qiu Yizhi, and pulled out the short knife that Wen Lingjiao gave her beside her.
Seeing this, Qiu Yi hurriedly pulled Wei Chi Jiming aside and said to Wu Changxi: "General Wu, you and I are old friends, do you also think that there is a suspicion of fornication with the Japanese in the next place?" ”
Wu Changxi said with a sad face: "This ...... The last general can trust Lord Qiu, but since it is an order from our state Lord Muye, the last general does not dare to disobey it. Although Lord Ye is a little mean, he is not an unreasonable person, if the adult can admit defeat and say a few soft words, he will be a few colleagues and friends in the end, presumably Lord Ye will not be embarrassed by Lord Qiu. ”
Qiu Yizhi's mouth was full, and he was about to speak, but he saw a person running up briskly from outside the palace, and he ran so panicked that he tripped on the threshold and suddenly fell into the mud.
Seeing that this person was so embarrassed, Wu Changxi put Qiu Yizhi aside for the time being, picked the person up, and said angrily: "Zhang Laosan, what are you panicking about?" I'm not afraid of breaking my face! ”
The third Zhang finally stood firm, and stammered: "General, general, general, general, something is wrong, the Japanese are attacking!" ”
"What!" Wu Changxi exclaimed, "We are here in the yamen of the state capital, and there are many people, do the Japanese have such courage to dare to attack?" ”
Zhang Laosan hurriedly replied: "General, when is it, do I dare to talk nonsense?" The general didn't believe it, so he went outside to have a look, and I don't know who said that there were a lot of gold and silver treasures in the palace, and there were already more than 300 widows gathered outside! ”
Seeing Wang Lao Wu's nervous expression, Wu Changxi already believed him, and hurriedly asked, "What about General Li?" His big camp was right next to him, so how could he allow the Japanese to attack the important places of the government? ”
Zhang Laosan replied with a crying voice: "General Li...... General Lee's head was picked out...... The official army camp of the state capital is afraid that it will also be captured by the Japanese invaders! ”
Wu Changxi became more and more surprised when he heard this, this Zhonglang general surnamed Li was the highest military governor in Mingzhou, if it was really as Zhang Laosan said, even he was killed by the Japanese Invaders, then it was not unexpected for the Japanese Invaders to attack the government office.
Thinking of this, Wu Changxi calmed down, dragged a soldier beside him, and said, "You just run outside to take a look, see how things are, and come back immediately to restore your life." ”
He turned to Qiu Yizhi again and said: "Lord Qiu, please be calm and stay here for a while, if it is really a big attack by the Japanese invaders, presumably when you use people, Lord Ye will not embarrass your lord." ”
As he was talking, the soldier who had been sent out by Wu Changxi to inquire about the situation had also returned, and said with a face full of horror: "General, the Japanese are really attacking...... That, General Li's head was cut off and inserted on a bamboo pole to show the public! ”
Wu Changxi heard this, knew that something was wrong, and hurried to Ye Shengyu's side without saying a word.
After the move, Wu Changxi ran back again.
Qiu Yizhi saw that in addition to the nervousness and anxiety on his face, there was also a little helpless look, so he asked, "General Wu, what does Lord Ye have to do with him?" ”
Wu Changxi sighed and said: "Lord Ye didn't mention Lord Qiu at all, but he just wanted the last general to strictly guard the government office, and he couldn't easily go out to quell the rebellion." ”
Qiu Yizhi was also stunned, and then said: "It doesn't make sense to deal with it like this." How can our dignified local yamen be blocked by the Japanese invaders? If you can keep it for a while like a turtle with a shrunken head like this, can you still keep it for a lifetime? Even if they can really hold it, if they can't attack, they will be angry and angry, and they will definitely be angry with the people in the city, wouldn't it be even more uncontrollable? ”
Wu Changxi sighed again: "This is the truth, and the last general also understands it." But Lord Ye is a Shangguan after all, how can the last general disobey his orders? ”
"Petropolitan! Impotent! Qiu Yizhi shouted, "You are a general, you don't think about how to defend your family and defend the country, kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, and use your brains on this kind of uploading and distributing things all day long, what big things can you achieve?" It's good for you to protect Lord Ye here, but you don't have such patience below, so you have to go out to fight the Japanese Kou, just ask you not to stop it. ”
After that, Qiu Yizhi led Lin Shuhan and Wen Lingjiao to the door.
Wu Changxi was scolded by Qiu Yizhi and his face was flushed, and he held back for a long time, and finally stimulated the blood in his chest, and said to Qiu Yizhi's back: "Master Qiu, go slowly, and I will act with you at the end!" ”
Wu Changxi said this, but after all, he was only a school inspector, and his soldiers obeyed his orders, but there were only four or five hundred people, and now there were only more than two hundred people who could be mobilized. I heard that there were nearly 300 Japanese soldiers outside the gate, and these soldiers under my own command were definitely not enough.
Therefore, Wu Changxi connected several comrades who guarded the Mingzhou Mansion - some of them were willing to go out to fight, and some were unwilling; Although some people are willing to fight, they are only willing to send troops for Wu Changxi's dispatch due to Ye Shengyu's ban, and they are unwilling to lead the army to fight - in short, it took a lot of effort for Wu Changxi to cobble together more than 500 people.
So Wu Changxi asked someone to open the main gate of the Mingzhou Mansion, and the soldiers under his command lined up against the wall, facing those who were showing off their might.
Qiu Yizhi saw that although Wu Changxi was quite a general, his sergeants were listless and obviously had no combat effectiveness; Seeing the violentness of the Japanese on the opposite side, there was another person in the queue wearing a red helmet and red armor, holding a short fan, who seemed to be the commander of the Chinese army.
Qiu Yizhi said to Wu Changxi: "General Wu, I'm not afraid that you will be blamed. I have fought against the Japanese Invaders a few times before, and I know that the Wolves are fierce and abnormal, and they are quite martial arts, so I am afraid that these soldiers under the command of the general may not be able to compete with them head-on......"
Wu Changxi nodded while listening, and secretly thought: At the beginning, in Shanyin County, this Qiu Yizhi was able to resist the siege of tens of thousands of officers and soldiers with only about 20 personal soldiers; Now even he has a high look at those Japanese robbers, presumably these old and weak soldiers under his command may not be able to kill the Japanese robbers.
I only heard Qiu Yizhi continue: "Has the general ever seen the man in red armor in the Japanese army opposite? If it is true in the following predictions, this person must be the leader of the Japanese Bandits. There is a saying that 'the thief captures the king first, and the man shoots the horse first', as long as the person is killed, the wolf is bound to be in chaos, and it will be much easier to deal with. ”
Wu Changxi listened, and also felt that Qiu Yizhi's method was deep in the art of war, so he nodded busily: "What Lord Qiu said is extremely true. I wonder what adults do? ”
Qiu Yizhi said: "General Lao Fuwu led his soldiers to put on a frontal attack posture, and advanced towards the Japanese with great fanfare, just don't engage with their short troops. There are more than a dozen personal soldiers under his command, although the number is small, but they are all soldiers who can recruit and fight, and there are horses to help them fight, as long as they detour out of the side streets, they may be able to kill the Japanese by surprise and pick their leaders out of the battle! ”
Wu Changxi pondered for a moment, nodded happily and said, "Brilliant plan!" Then the general will do as he is told! ”
Qiu Yizhi also nodded, and said, "There is one more thing." The two girls next to him, as well as this Mr. Lin, are all powerless. When the charge was made, General Wu was also asked to be able to save one or two. ”
Qiu Yizhi saw that Wu Changxi agreed, so he agreed with him to make a code, and then ordered his own soldiers and lieutenant Chi Jiming, and stepped on the war horses together, and did not directly attack the Japanese invaders, but went around in a big circle in the direction behind the palace.
