Chapter 142: Taking advantage of the situation to oppress others
Chen Hao quickly calmed down, this is the biggest advantage of his character, no matter what happens, he can calmly analyze. In order to accomplish the task, it is necessary to use external forces, that is, it is necessary to rely on the county patrol battalion. If you want the county patrol battalion to send troops to encircle and suppress, the key lies in the county order Shi Hong, and if you want the county to send Shi Hong's troops, there are no more than two means, one is to buy, and the other is coercion.
It became impossible to buy Shi Hong after the intervention of Xuanyuan Sword, after all, it was impossible for Chen Hao to compete with Xuanyuan Sword stupidly for financial resources, and the county ordered Shi Hong himself to be unwilling to take risks. Bribery doesn't work, if you want to patrol the battalion, you can only coerce, but how can you coerce Shi Hong into submission without any official position?
Although Chen Hao's current fighting and marksmanship skills are good, there are more people who are better than him, if he openly threatens Shi Hong, Shi Hong will not be afraid, and he will be on the blacklist of the official government. The use of force will not work, Shi Hong's status is above himself, and the only way to do it is to use external force.
Chen Hao suddenly had an idea, and the stunt of killing people with a knife was suddenly triggered, and he quickly had an idea. He took out a blank piece of paper, and then wrote a letter to Nie Shicheng, the governor of Zhili.
"When the grass people returned to Xiangnan Province, what they saw and heard was appalling, and they had to disturb the boss. In Yongshun County, southern Hunan, there were bandits Zheng Laosan who gathered to rebel, and more than 1,000 people gathered in Longshan to poison Longshan, and they did all kinds of evil and robbery. There is a squire Yu Youwen, the family is quite rich, Zheng Laosan led the bandits to break his house, the family of the old and the young were not spared, and the three-year-old child was also poisoned. ”
"Yongshun County ordered Shi Hong to neglect his duties, because he was afraid of Zheng Laosan's obscenity, he deceived and lied that the bandits had been exterminated, and turned a blind eye to Zheng Laosan's wrongdoing. Nowadays, Yongshun is sparsely populated, the fields and houses are barren, the people are unbearable, and the families are broken and countless people have died. The grass people took the liberty of begging the Admiral to go to the imperial court, send heavenly soldiers to exterminate the bandits as soon as possible, and return a good and prosperous ......"
After writing the letter, Chen Hao called the third thief and said with a serious face; "Shanhai, you hurry up and go to Zhili to hand over this letter to Lord Nie, the governor of Zhili, this act is very important, there must be no mistakes, if you can complete this task, I will definitely reuse it in the future."
The third thief took the letter and hid it closely, and said with a smile: "Master, don't worry about me!" I was forced when I first talked to you, but in the past few days I have found that I don't have to worry about doing things under my master, and I don't have a shortage of money to spend, and I like this kind of life very much. The lord asked me to find out the news of those bandits, and I found that I was very suitable for such a thing, and I think that the lord is a person who does great things, and he will definitely have a future in the future with you, so I will definitely complete the task. ”
Chen Hao patted the thief on the shoulder and said, "Please, after you arrived at the Langfang Nie Lord Barracks, you said that you were sending a letter for me, and he would meet you." ”
Seeing off the thief Chen Hao did not make any other arrangements, he returned to Shuangfeng County in a carriage. The players who Xuanyuan Sword arranged to spy on Chen Hao didn't know what he was trying to do! can only follow to Shuangfeng County and monitor every inch.
After receiving a report from his subordinates that Chen Ba had advanced the Wang family's mansion, Xuanyuan Jian said in surprise: "This Chen Baxian really has some ability, no one can become a disciple of Wang Minyun, but he succeeded." Everyone knows that the Wang family's mansion is Qiu Jin's husband's family, and there are countless people who want to go in to visit Qiu Jin, but no one can get in, but he just came to Xiangnan and went in. ”
The subordinate smiled: "Could it be that Chen Baxian has some secrets?" It's just that the "War" game is an independent production of the intelligent computer Genesis, and it can't be because of the human factor, he should just be lucky! ”
Xuanyuan Jian pondered for a moment and said: "No matter how he does it, he must strengthen the surveillance for me, I will see how he can deal with the bandits of Poison Dragon Mountain without the help of the government, could it be that Qiu Jin can still help him?" ”
Xuanyuan Jian is really right, Qiu Jin can help, Tang Qunying was also there when Chen Hao entered the Wang family's mansion. Seeing Chen Hao, Tang Qunying teased: "Where has the little brother Baxian been recently?" Sister Qiu Jin also said that she would learn martial arts with you for a few days, but she couldn't find anyone.
Chen Hao sighed and said: "It's a long story, I heard that there is a group of bandits in Yongshun who are doing evil, so I went to check it out, and it was shocking at a glance." ”
Qiu Jin and Tang Qunying quickly became interested, Tang Qunying smiled and said: "Don't sell Guanzi to the younger brother of Baxian, how shocking, let's talk about our sisters." ”
After Chen Hao told the situation of Zheng Laosan bandits in Yongshun County, Tang Qunying took the case and said: "What is the reason why these bandits exterminate humanity and not kill them?" Little brother Baxian, I will go to Yongshun with you, and I will definitely eliminate harm for the people. ”
Qiu Jin also said angrily: "That dog official Shi Hong is even more hateful, in order not to take risks, he even connived at the bandits. I wrote a letter to my husband, asking him to go to the court to punish the crime of the dog official, so that he could send troops to kill the bandits as soon as possible. ”
Chen Hao nodded and said: "Jianhu Woman is right, although Sister Tang has excellent marksmanship, but those bandits have nearly 1,000 people and more than 200 guns, and it is not easy to kill them single-handedly." If Sister Tang wants to eliminate harm for the people, wait until the day when the imperial court sends troops to encircle and suppress you, and then you and I will go to help, and we will definitely give the people justice. ”
With Nie Shicheng and Qiu Jin's husband Wang Tingjun writing a letter, even if the imperial court does not remove Shi Hong, it should order the extermination of the bandits. The reason why Chen Hao dragged Tang Qunying with him was because Tang Qunying's marksmanship was superb, and if the Xuanyuan Sword people wanted to play a little trick when encircling and suppressing the bandits, it was just right for them to learn the marksmanship of the "old woman with two guns".
Qiu Jin quickly wrote the letter, and then handed it to a martial arts nurse, asking him to go to the capital to deliver the letter to Wang Tingjun, the head of the household department. Chen Hao's plan has been fully realized, and the rest of the time only needs to be patient, when the government sends troops to encircle and suppress Poison Dragon Mountain, he will find a way to separate the relationship between Li Dahu and Zheng Laosan, and help the officers and soldiers to take Poison Dragon Mountain in one fell swoop.
Chen Hao lived in the inn, visited Qiu Jin with Tang Qunying every day, and competed with Qiu Jin to improve his martial arts. About a week later, the letter of return from the nursing home sent by Qiu Jin had been handed over to Wang Tingjun, and the third thief also rushed to Shuangfeng County to tell Chen Hao that he had handed over the letter to Nie Shicheng, the governor of Zhili.
In the Forbidden City, after the worship of hundreds of officials, the Empress Dowager Cixi said lightly: "Nie Shicheng, the governor of Zhili, neglected his duties in Yongshun Zhi County in Xiangxi, and the bandit Zheng Lao burned and looted everywhere, do you have anything to say?" ”
Wang Tingjun, the head of the household department, came out and said: "The minister's ancestral home is in southern Hunan, and recently a letter was brought to his home, saying that the bandit Zheng Laosan did all kinds of evil, and the people of Xiangxi Mansion were panicked, and I hope that the queen mother will send troops to exterminate the bandits as soon as possible, so as not to destroy the people." ”
Cixi snorted coldly and said, "Duanfang, the mourning family remembers that the county ordered Shi Hong to take your way, right?" A few days ago, you told the mourning family that Shi Hong recruited the Xiangxi bandits, and the people of Xiangxi lived and worked in peace and contentment, what else do you have to say now? ”
Duan Fang hurriedly came out and said: "Empress Dowager Qiqi, it must be a rebellion after the bandits recruit An, this kind of bandit recruitment is an expedient measure, and it is necessary to cut down the grass and eradicate it in order to return peace to the party." ”
The Empress Dowager Cixi waved her hand and said: "The mourning family is lacking, if the bandits have not been cleared up within a month, you pass a word to Zhang Zhidong for the mourning family, saying that even hundreds of bandits cannot be cleared, what does the mourning family want him to eat, the governor of Huguang?" ”
Duan Fang came down in a cold sweat, Shi Hong was recommended by him to take office, and Zhang Zhidong gave him a face. If it was really because of Shi Hong's problem that Zhang Zhidong was reprimanded, how would Duan Fang face Zhang Zhidong in the future? The top priority is to let Shi Hong send troops immediately and clear out the bandit Zheng Laosan first, so that there will be an explanation to the Queen Mother, and Zhang Zhidong will not be implicated.
After Duan Fang returned home, he wrote a sternly worded letter, and asked his henchmen to send it to Yongshun and hand it to Shi Hong, who was sweating profusely after reading Duan Fang's letter. He was a mere seven-rank official, and he was sued to Cixi for dereliction of duty, if he couldn't eliminate the bandits in Poison Dragon Mountain beautifully, he wouldn't be able to keep his black hat, and his life might not be guaranteed.
Shi Hong burned the letter, went out and said loudly; "Come on, go and call Deng Qianhu for me."
The county patrol battalion originally had 1,500 people, but the previous county commander failed to encircle and suppress the poisonous dragon mountain, and lost several hundred people. Since Shi Hong did not mean to exterminate the bandits after taking office, Deng Wentong did not make up the shortcoming??????????????????????????????? , a total of six or seven hundred soldiers, and the rest were all eaten by him. After being reprimanded by Shi Hong, Deng Wentong had to make up for the gap and forced the soldiers to train, and he looked a little better.
Shi Hong asked his subordinates to find the stranger Chen Baxian, but the innkeeper said that he had left, and Shi Hong gave up the idea of blackmail. As long as there is an opportunity to make money, he will not let it go, in his opinion, it is necessary to exterminate Zheng Laosan now, and the alien Chen Baxian still doesn't know, if he is found, he can also extort a sum of money in the name of avenging his uncle.
Chen Hao had actually returned to Yongshun County, and he followed Tang Qunying by his side, but he did not go to the county magistrate Liu Ziyuan, but tied up Li Dahu, who had just come out of the Qinglou, with Tang Qunying's cooperation. Under coercion and temptation, Li Dahu, who was already dissatisfied with Zheng Laosan, agreed to turn against the water and took Chen Hao and Tang Qunying to Poison Dragon Mountain.
In the Poison Dragon Mountain Gathering Hall, Zheng Laosan sat on a tiger skin chair, and when he saw Li Dahu, he laughed and said, "Where are you going to be merry and happy, why did you bring two strangers to the mountain?" ”
Li Dahu grinned and said: "I met the officers and soldiers in the county seat, and thanks to the help of these two friends, I got out of trouble, and they came to join the gang." ”
A player next to Li Dahu whispered a few words to Zheng Laosan, and Zheng Laosan said with a fierce glint in his eyes: "Third child, you take these unknown people up the mountain, what if they are spies of the imperial court?" ”
Li Dahu said with a displeased face: "Boss, how did you not say anything about the problem when you received ten strangers at a time a few days ago, why did I bring two friends up the mountain to have a problem?" These two are my lifesavers, if they are spies, then those strangers you take are more likely spies, right? ”
