Chapter 858: Everything is getting better
Don't say that the gentry of Jining Prefecture, even the governor of Shandong have complained greatly, in previous years, when such a thing happened, the Lu Wangfu would stiffen his neck and make trouble, my family is the royal blood, the elders of the Son of Heaven, everything in the world is my Zhu family, it's just a hurry, are you so trying to do wrong?
But this time it was very quiet, many industries and many stewards of Lu Wangfu in Jining Prefecture withdrew silently, and Lu Wangfu also arranged for its subordinate wealthy businessmen to take out nearly 10,000 taels of silver to work for the army, and put such a big capital on a defeated army, everyone thought that Lu Wangfu was crazy.
The official people of Jining Prefecture have a lot of dealings with the Lu Wangfu, even if it is fully contracted, there are people who want to run errands, saying that the Lu Wangfu is not the same as before, the head of the director Shi is all white, the person seems to be dozens of years old, and the eunuch Xiong who is in charge of the affairs is nowhere to be found.
Zhao Ziying's brigade ignored the shaking of Jining Prefecture and the big and small affairs of Yanzhou Fusheng, he just returned to Xuzhou according to the fixed plan.
When they arrived in Yutai County, the local gentry and people came to work for the army, this time it was not a conspiracy of the Xiangxiang Sect, but a real role of local fame, they knew the news earlier than other places, and sent food supplies and more than a dozen large animals, which was all for the small Yutai, and the gentry who came to the labor army also swore that if the army needed, the county could levy civilian materials at any time.
What is even more unexpected, but in fact it is also expected, Yutai Zhixian sent his henchmen and family members to ask if the army was going to attack the county seat, saying that if it was going to fight, he would hang up the seal and leave, and there would never be any obstacle to the army, and even help make the defense of the city gate more convenient.
The answer to this Zhao Jin is also very simple, he doesn't want to rebel, and he won't attack the city, but the rules will definitely change in the future, wait for someone from Xuzhou
Hearing this reply, Yutai Zhixian breathed a sigh of relief, Yutai County and Xuzhou are adjacent, naturally know the rules of Xuzhou, several court officials are still pinching their noses and being stable, as for the other things to change, the current situation, can continue to stay, can save their lives and leave office, how dare you expect anything else.
However, the gentry and people of Yutai County are quite happy, if Zhao Ziying stands firm, the Liao salary of Yutai County will not have to be paid, which is a great thing.
No matter how the official and the people reacted, the two sides did one thing in unison, that is, to get rid of the Wenxiang Sect and completely drive out this sect, from the gentry and local tyrants to the common people, everyone was separated from the sect, and if anyone hid their secrets, it was the public enemy of the whole county, and everyone knew Zhao Jin's attitude towards the Wenxiang Sect.
When he came out of Yutai County, Ma Chonghao, who was waiting in the camp in Xuzhou, sent people to inquire, saying that in the camp at the junction of Xuzhou and Shandong, there were people sent by Nanzhili and Henan from all sides, and the purpose of their coming was very simple, that is, to see the victory or defeat of the Zhao Ziying camp this time, to see if it was true or false.
If it interferes with confidentiality, then Ma Chonghao will send someone to disperse, if it is just to see the quality, then Ma Chonghao will not move.
Zhao Jin's answer was to strictly guard against people with ulterior motives, and others stayed there to watch.
When Zhao Ziying's brigade entered the territory of Xuzhou, it was the gongs and drums were noisy, and the firecrackers were ringing in unison, for the gentry and local tyrants in Xuzhou, for all forces, since Zhao Ziying said that he had won a big victory, he must have won, this time a big victory, no matter what happens in the future, at least Zhao Jin in Xuzhou will have a long time to town, so he naturally has to come over early to flatter.
In addition to the people of Xuzhou who eat pot pulp, there are also many strict looks, full of fierce riders, many people know at a glance that they have been in the army, or have excellent martial arts, but these people do not carry weapons, just ride horses to watch.
These people watched very carefully, from the appearance of Zhao Ziying's queue, they couldn't take their eyes off it, staring very closely, when they saw that Zhao Ziying's family was full of energy, and they couldn't see any haggard and injured looks, everyone's expressions were more solemn, and at the same time, there were more puzzled looks.
"They must be strange when they look at our team so neatly, thinking that the victory of the same strength is about the same, it makes no sense that we have no casualties, but they can't see our casualties, and they suspect that we are cheating." Zhao Jin and his companions were in the team, and when they saw the expressions of those people, they smiled and guessed.
When the families of the regiments and teams walked past and looked at the carts loaded with the booty, the suspicion on the faces of these people disappeared, and only horror remained.
Too much loot can be faked, there are coal and iron giants like the Xu family in Jingshan, don't say it's this thing, even if the six thousand officers and soldiers are all dressed here, they can be gathered, but such a large amount of material transportation must not be hidden, and the blood stains and dust on the helmet and felt hat, it is really difficult to make it old to this point, not to mention the flags, these flags can be said to be one of the most important things on the battlefield, seeing here, no one wants to cheat or something like that, and then I saw the weapons piled up on the car.
There are so many loot, and it is already crazy to suspect fraud, not to mention that Jining Prefecture is so close to Nanzhili, no matter how much you hide it, the news will arrive soon, and it is enough to have this evidence.
After seeing this scene, many people who came to observe it left one after another, and they had to hurry up and report the news to all places, so that all places could react in time
"Master, Guo Shangyou, the governor of Fengyang, arranged two teams of messengers in our Xuzhou, one team with a fold is to ask the imperial court to send an additional army, together with Nanzhili and all kinds of soldiers and horses will suppress Xuzhou, and the other team is the chaos of the people There is no grievance, the Holy Son of Heaven does not have to use the sword soldiers in his reign, when he is merciful, he is appeased, if his subordinates are not mistaken, now is the team that sent the appeasement to the fold on the road." Ma Chonghao said with a smile.
The first brigade led by Lu Da stopped on the north bank of the Yellow River in Xuzhou, and was still stationed near Xujia in Jingshan, and at the same time there were 1,500 regiments on this side, while Zhao Jin and the rest of the troops did not delay and hurried back to Xuzhou City on the south bank of the Yellow River.
This time, instead of going directly to Hejiazhuang to station, the team came to the vicinity of Xuzhou City, and Wang Zhaojing met the team at the ferry, and then went to Xuzhou City together
Elsewhere, I also have to ask Zhao Jin whether he is a rebellion, if he does, the city will open the city gate, and there will be no obstacles, in this Xuzhou City, there is no need to think so much, I heard that Zhao Jin is coming back, the city gate is wide open, and all parts of the city are organized, and the labor army is quite solemn to respond, which is led by the real power figures in the yamen, from the master to the secretary of each room have contributed money and people.
All kinds of spoils are displayed outside the city gate, the Zhao Ziying personal guards follow Zhao into the city, the first regiment and the second regiment are resting outside the city, and one-third of the families of each regiment can take a vacation to visit relatives, which is almost all the families in Xuzhou City.
After seeing the spoils of war, the already small doubts in Xuzhou City also disappeared, and everyone had to set up a banquet and set up wine, and invited Zhao Jin to appreciate the light and celebrate Zhao Ziying
However, Zhao Jin was rejected, and his answer was very simple, he only rested here for two nights, and then he had to go back to Hejiazhuang.
The reason why he wanted to stop in Xuzhou was also to tell everyone that Zhao Ziying went to Shandong to fight this time and returned with a big victory, and at the same time got along with the Yamen of Xuzhou Zhizhou safely, which was also a gesture to the outside, and Zhao Ziying did not want to rebel.
But Tong Huaizu, the governor of Xuzhou, is also not surprised, Zhao Shiyi is also worried that Tong Huaizu will find a short time to die Daming or something, and deliberately arranged for the eyeliner of the inner house to star, as a result, Tong Huaizu poured himself quite easily, and then looked at the writing, as usual.
At night, Zhao Jin rested in the original old house, and several people went back to their respective homes, and the personal guards were on full alert, for fear that others would take this opportunity to sneak attack.
"This time for the younger brother's family, the brothers led the team to be born and died, the younger brother is grateful, and the brothers are worshiped by me." At the private banquet of several brothers, Wang Zhaojing solemnly got up with wine and bowed.
Zhao Jin hurriedly got up to stop him, and the others also stood up and didn't accept it, Zhao Jin said directly: "I know that if you don't do this, you won't be able to express your gratitude, but your own brother can't make such a mistake." ”
The others echoed, Wang Zhaojing shook his head, took the wine glass and drank it all, sighed and said: "When the junior brother heard that the official army was not four thousand but six thousand, he was really frightened, in case the brothers made a mistake, the younger brother is really"
"Don't say anything like this, the real danger this time is not that the enemy has increased troops, but that we only showed that the other side had artillery before the start of the war, and this is the most dangerous." Zhao Jin said with emotion.
He sighed like this, but the others didn't feel anything, Zhao Jin smiled and continued: "I can know the artillery in advance, thanks to a relative of the Cai family of Cai Juren, for his credit, I promised the Cai family to come back, there are many people in the Cai family who are studying, you come and keep an eye on it, don't go to the road of fame, do something for our Zhao Ziying."
Over there, Wang Zhaojing agreed, but his mind was not on it, and he asked a little eagerly: "Big brother, since everything has been realized as expected, how about my father's side?" ”
When he came back this time, Wang Zhaojing's state looked much better than before, as if he was back to normal, but if something happened to his flesh-and-blood relatives, how could he not be anxious.
Speaking of this topic, Zhao Jin patted Wang Zhaojing on the shoulder, sighed and said: "I can only say that it has started to get better, but what the real result is, we can only depend on the fate of heaven to get to this point." ”
Wang Zhaojing was silent for a while, then nodded, sighed bitterly, and drank the wine glass.
"What day is it?" Wang Youshan in the prison asked.
The jailer not far away responded listlessly: "Today is the thirteenth day of September, I said Lord Wang, you ask every day, what's the use of this, isn't it annoying to calculate the days?" ”
