Chapter 322: Yang He begging for death

I don't know when it began, there was a trend of being an official and not repairing the government, maybe it was simply to show that he was thrifty, or he didn't want to spend money to repair the county government that belonged to the government, anyway, in the Ming Dynasty, looking at it, the county government as the administrative center of a county, most of them were dilapidated.

The same is true of Daning County, as the governor of the three sides, in order to deal with the largest anti-thief army in the Ming Dynasty, Yang He stationed troops in Daning County, which is only a river away from Yanchang, and at the same time, in order to stimulate morale, his handsome tent was set up in Daning County.

Daning County is only separated by a river from Yanchang, and Wang Zhi's daily actions are also easy to spread here, forced by the pressure of Wang Jiajun, the rich households in Daning County are basically ten rooms and nine empty, and those who can run have run away, and a large number of idle houses have been idle.

It stands to reason that Yang He should find a mansion left by a wealthy family to open a government and build a trilateral military government for the prime minister, but Yang He set up the governor's yamen in the dilapidated county government very unreasonably.

At this time, Yang He was sitting in the slightly dilapidated county government hall drinking by himself, and there was only one old servant serving by his side, and he would drink to the fullest, and he would loudly scold the "traitor", not at all like the majestic governor in the military tent before, but like an ordinary old man who was angry and could only use wine to kill his sorrows.

The reason why he was so depressed was because he knew that he was about to die.

Ever since he learned about Wang Jiajun's policy from those spies who came back a few days ago, he has been haunted by fear all day long, and the policy of the traitor is completely to dig up the roots of their warrior clan, or the kind that does not leave a living mouth.

As a proponent of a policy of appeasement for the thieves, Yang He had sympathy for the bankrupt and hungry, but he could not change the fact that he belonged to the noble class.

Wang Zhi's approach in this world made it clear that he wanted to eradicate the scholar class and then support a new class. Although Yang He didn't understand this thoroughly, he saw it very clearly.

There are only individuals who betray the class, there is no class that betrays interests. As a scholar who believed in the way of Confucius and Mencius, Yang He immediately regarded Wang Zhi as a great enemy of life and death, and would put him to death as soon as possible.

In fact, he did the same, he knew very well that with his own troops, it was almost impossible to win against the Wang army, but he still used the death order to order the generals to prepare to send troops, and at the same time a handwritten letter was sent out, some were written to the nearby states and counties to mobilize grain and grass, and there were also farewell letters to the family, but more were written to the imperial court and some colleagues, which directly pointed to the danger of Wang Zhi, and pointed out that if necessary, the Liaodong Iron Cavalry could be transferred into the pass to suppress bandits.

In the end, in the choice of class interests and national righteousness, this capable minister, who has been praised in the history books, still chose class interests, perhaps because of the limitations of his vision.

But no matter how limited his vision is, Yang He knows that after this battle, he will definitely die. Whether he was killed by the enemy in the war, or he was imprisoned for his defeat and died (by suicide), Yang He did not feel that he could have a second fate.

"Yang De, you have been serving me for forty years!" Yang He asked the old servant on the side.

"The little one has been waiting for the master since he was just enlightened." The old servant replied respectfully.

"Tomorrow, you can go back to the capital and hand over this letter to Wen Qiao in person." Yang He took out a letter from his arms and handed it to the old servant, although he had sent a lot of letters to his home before, but those were all official channels, and the confidentiality was not very good, and some private words were not suitable for others to know.

"After the letter is delivered, you will go back to your hometown in Wuling!"

Speaking of this, the old servant couldn't hear the meaning of farewell in Yang He's words, and immediately an old tear swam out: "Master, why are you so ......?"

“……”

Yang He was about to say something, when a loud bang suddenly came from the direction of the city gate, and after being stunned for a few seconds, Yang He shouted loudly: "Someone! ”

Although there were only two of them in this small courtyard, there were many pro-soldiers outside, and when they heard the sound, a few pro-soldiers immediately rushed in, and Yang He immediately ordered: "Go and find out what's going on?" ”

After receiving the order, several pro-soldiers immediately went to inquire about the news, and Yang He also gathered his pro-soldiers to prepare to go out to have a look, but as soon as he walked to the gate of the county office, the pro-soldiers who had been sent out to inquire about the news came back with a crawl.

"What's the alarm?"

"Report to my lord, I don't know where a large army of thieves came, they blew open the city gate, they have already entered the city, and they are about to go to the county office."

"What?" Hearing the report of his own soldiers, Yang He's eyes immediately widened, his garrison was so broken? Although he had long planned to retreat to Puxian once the thief army came, he didn't expect the thief army to come so quickly and so fiercely.

Wang Zhi, who had any gate, opened the passage to a certain city gate in Daning County directly in front of the military formation, and then used a magnifying light to enlarge any gate, and under the stunned expression of the city gate guard, a battalion of soldiers passed through any gate to the front of the city gate.

Although the guards had already begun to close the city gate and send people to report the news to the city, Wang Zhi, who did not want to wait any longer, did not give him time to react, and before the soldiers of the second battalion came, he rushed to the city gate alone and collapsed the city gate with one punch.

In this way, Wang Jiajun easily entered Daning County.

The details are not very clear to Yang He, but this does not prevent him from putting on a show.

"Follow me to the enemy!"

Yang He pulled out the sword at his waist as a decoration and held it high, looking like he wanted to be loyal to the country.

When the guards next to him saw him doing this, they immediately stepped forward and hugged him: "My lord, the city gate has been broken, and it is impossible to do it. ”

Yang He really wanted to take the lead in the charge, but he was just making a show just now, waiting for the guards to come forward to stop him, and he didn't mean to go down, and let the guards drag him away.

Under the support of the guards, Yang He took an old servant to break through to the south city gate, and gathered a lot of defeated soldiers and people on the way, such a big target, naturally discovered by the second division that entered the city, but found that there was no intention to stop them, because as soon as he entered the city, Wang Zhi divided his troops to seize other city gates, and it was much easier to seize the city gate from inside the city than outside the city.

Yang He and his party were one step later than the soldiers of the Wang family army who went to control the city gate, and when they arrived at the south city gate, they encountered not their own people, but the muzzle of the machine gun in the black hole.

Yang He knew very well that Wang Jiajun had a powerful musket that could be fired continuously, but he had never seen this kind of magical musket once, so in the face of the muzzle of the machine gun, he chose to let the gathered rout charge and try to break through the city gate guarded by only a dozen people.

However, as soon as the gunshots rang out, he was stunned. (To be continued.) )
