5-26 The princess arrives
General Li Peng, who bravely rushed to the front line, had his saber snatched from his front teeth and had one of his front teeth knocked out, and he finally retreated to the rear under the escort of his own soldiers, and in annoyance, he gave the order to change his weapons.
Don't think that the officers and soldiers of our Suzhou Wei can only play rattan and bamboo sticks, which are used to solve the internal contradictions of the people, and to deal with a brutal enemy like the patrol tiger, we must use swords, guns, bows and crossbows.
Just as the outpost of Suzhou Wei was defeated by the city patrol tigers, the soldiers at the back of the queue had already finished wearing armor, and with the officer's command, they lined up in a neat phalanx and pressed over step by step to the beat of the drum.
After the comrades in indigo robes retreated, what appeared in front of the city patrol tigers was an iron curtain, the soldiers in iron armor all over their bodies advanced with small flower guns in their hands, the cold light of the spear tip was shining, and the steel knives in the hands of the soldiers in the back row were even brighter as autumn water, and the city patrol tigers couldn't help but look at the wooden sticks in their hands, one by one, they were frightened, and with the two teams of archers seizing the roofs on both sides of the road, aiming the bows and crossbows at them, the fighting will of the city patrol tigers finally collapsed, I don't know who took the lead in running first, and then all the people and horses turned around and fled so fast that even the feather arrows shot by the archers could not catch up。
This battle was a tragic victory, and when Li Peng stood in front of Liu Ziguang, his head was bandaged, his face was covered with blood, and he had a heroic image of a bloody battle.
"My lord, the last general didn't embarrass you, I single-handedly killed seven in and seven out of thousands of patrolling tigers, personally captured the enemy general alive, and then ......escaped by him," Li Peng described the tragic scene at that time with a leaky mouth, and several hundreds of households with their sleeves rolled up and covered in blood also followed the gossiping help, and Liu Ziguang was quite moved to hear it.
"Li Qianhu is really the tiger general at that time, and he also came to pour a good glass of wine." Liu Ziguang took the liquor brought by the guards and personally held it in front of Li Peng
"Tiger General, please drink this cup to the full." Li Peng took the wine, drank it, and drank the liquor, which stimulated the gums that had just lost his teeth, and he grinned in pain, but in order to maintain the demeanor of a tough guy, he was stunned and said nothing, and the empty sea bowl was displayed upside down, and his face was still full of high-spirited and confident smiles, and the hundreds of households under his command hurriedly clapped and applauded.
"Li Qianhu was supposed to recruit your ministry to come, and it was really a commission." Liu Ziguang said and ordered someone to unfold a topographical map of Shanghai, and Li Peng quickly changed his expression to a solemn expression and leaned over.
"You see, here and here, you all need to send personnel to guard it, as well as the patrol tasks around the pavilion, and the detention tasks of the prisoners in the city ship, Li Qianhu is responsible for it, and the responsibility is heavy, brother." Liu Ziguang patted Li Peng on the shoulder.
"Now is an eventful season, Shanghai Road is the top priority of Jiangnan's fiscal and tax revenues, these corrupt officials have completely finished the official letter, but they are also embarrassed by the officials everywhere, now the court is very busy, temporarily can't take care of this stall, we have been favored by the emperor for many years, we should take responsibility at this juncture, etc., these corrupt officials in Shanghai Road have to vacate a lot of seats, Li Qianhu's family has relatives and friends, although they are recommended to come and raise their talents, they don't avoid relatives." Shanghai is a world of flowers, there are more opportunities to make money, Li Peng heard that there was such a good thing, his little eyes suddenly widened, and he slapped his chest: "My lord, we will fight wherever you point, and we will fight in the wind and fire, all by your words, and the lives of our thousands of brothers in Suzhou will be handed over to you!" ”
"After the good deed is accomplished, this official will ensure that you will be the commander. And he is the commander of the Shanghai Guard. Liu Ziguang saw his expression, and immediately agreed to be the commander of the Shanghai Guard, but it is a great thing, there is more oil and water here than Suzhou, not to mention that he can be promoted to a higher level.
Then, Liu Ziguang clearly explained the tasks one by one, and set the password for the Nanchang troops and the Suzhou troops to work together, and the code before Li Peng left the pavilion.
Walking out of the gate of the pavilion, a gust of autumn wind blew through, and the soldiers put the big man on Li Peng's body in time, and General Li, who was dressed in black and red in the red, stood on the steps, crossed his waist with one hand and held a horse whip in the other.
"Senhe-sama, please get on the horse." The hundreds of households under his command were flattered and brought a horse, and they were in a hurry, and they did not transport the war horse over, this horse was a civilian horse temporarily requisitioned from the common people.
Li Peng glared at the man: "In the future, General Li will be called a commander, and he will be a serious general, so you don't always have a thousand households and a thousand households are short." *********************************************************************, the Suzhou troops quickly took control of the Bund wharf and the city, and also sent a team of people to patrol around the pavilion where Liu Ziguang was staying.
Although there are not many people, but the critical moment can really come in handy, this thousand Suzhou troops to the Shanghai officials brought a considerable psychological shock, many people began to inquire around whether the imperial court is going to purge Shanghai officialdom, on the other hand, the transfer of Suzhou troops into Shanghai to carry out military affairs further aroused the indignation of the imperial historians, they generously stated, wrote hard, and turned the snowflakes to the capital.
Shanghai Dao has always been Cheng Liangjue's independent kingdom, all the officials were promoted by him, the generals of the internal guard and the water division are also his protégés, the rich merchants and wealthy families in the city are inextricably linked with him, and more importantly, the Cheng family itself has a century-old foundation, the descendants of the Jiangnan wealthy family Cheng surname are all over the sea, Cheng Liangjue, as the Cheng family's longhouse, holds the position of the patriarch, he can become the governor of Shanghai Dao, and the strength of the Cheng family has a dense and separable relationship, the Cheng family has always been very low-key, not like Lai Youwei, the general swagger, people believe in the truth of muffled wealth, on the surface is not obvious, in fact, the business has already been done overseas, wealth is more than Lai Youwei, I don't know moreLess times.
Therefore, the fate of the entire Shanghai Dao high society is tied to Cheng Liangjue, Cheng Liangjue stays in the governor's seat for a day, they can live a day with peace of mind, if one day Governor Cheng falls, and another person who doesn't know what to call comes to power, they will be very sad, in short, Shanghai needs a governor sent by the imperial court, but a governor who can represent their interests.
And Liu Ziguang is precisely challenging their bottom line, the entry of the Suzhou army is proof of this, and the Shanghai Road began to respond, first releasing weapons to the patrol city and cleaning the streets, and then the forbidden army of Shanghai Wei and the local troops of Shanghai Bingbei Road entered the city to be on duty, and the personnel on both sides could not help but have some friction, fortunately, the high-level officials had strict orders not to openly fight, otherwise the entire Shanghai Beach would be a river of blood.
At this moment, the eldest princess arrived at Shanghai Railway Station by the train, Zhu Cheng finally visited Zhenjiang, Changzhou, Wuxi, and Suzhou as if she was tortured, and came to the city where her sweetheart was.
Since entering the palace, in order to correct the various things that the eldest princess has cultivated among the people
"Indecent" habits, those female officers didn't bother to think about anything
"Smile without showing teeth, walk without moving skirt", drink water and eat are particular, after a few months, I finally developed a little good habit, this is good to go out, all the old habits have been restored, Zhu Cheng is like a white butterfly floating on the station platform, there is no princess style at all, and even everyone is not like a lady, it looks like a foreign woman who went to Shanghai to beg for a living.
Such a beautiful woman appeared on the platform of the station, immediately attracted the attention of the patrol tigers stationed at the station, several bigwig-level characters appeared almost at the same time, since the last time the patrol tiger and Suzhou guard station fired, Shanghai Road has strengthened the defense force of the railway station, the most elite patrol city five tigers with their subordinates have been transferred, these guys from the ruffian background saw a water spirit woman passing in front of them, they couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva and holding the new waist knife, and the appearance of the magnificent.
"Little lady, stop, the official wants to check you." The fifth of the five tigers, an emaciated yellow-faced man, majestically blocked the way of the eldest princess.
The current Zhu Cheng is no longer the same as the fisherman girl by Hongze Lake before, she knows that her identity is unspeakably expensive, and before leaving the palace, the mother concubine also explained, when she must protect herself, if she is bullied by a scoundrel old lady like before, it will be the face of the old Zhu family and the face of the emperor.
Therefore, when the eldest princess faced a group of city patrol tigers in official uniforms, she did not take the liberty of answering, but looked around at her guards.
The eldest princess's dozen or so guards are all carefully selected, their hands and feet are sharp, and their eyes are also alive, the eldest princess can get rid of those palace maids, and they can't get rid of them, and when they see a guy who can't open their eyes, they actually dare to block the way towards the eldest princess, and several guards immediately rushed up, and between the princess and the city patrol tiger, they stretched out their hands to push those city patrol tigers.
The guards are all errand men in the palace, and they usually see a lot of first-class officials, where will they put these few places that can't see the color of the clothes, zf supernumerary personnel in their eyes, who know that they can't be pushed down, you know, these guys are all the best in the city patrol tigers, and they are from the Lian family.
The guards were all tall, condescending, looking at the boys in dark green robes with disdain, their fingers turned from their chests to the tip of their noses, and they ordered cleanly: "Get out!" ”
