Chapter 415: Pirates
The Xuanjiao Taoist Temple was very lively, although there was a small episode, Liu Yuanxiang reacted very quickly, and immediately pressed it down, without causing too much turmoil.
The people all came to ask for blessings, and how could they have the heart to get to the bottom of it and care about a strange woman.
The group took Deng Jian's wife to the empty room, and the door outside was guarded to prevent outsiders from entering, and Chu Mei said, "This lady, you can get up." Fang just deliberately pretended to be dizzy, so what's the matter?"
Deng Jian's wife opened her eyes and knew that she was in a safe place, so she got up and gave Liu Yuanxiang, Chu Meiren, Xiao Fluttershy, Mi Yan, and Hua Erniang a salute, and whispered, "Don't be surprised when you bumped into a few ladies just now!"
"Who are you, what's the matter with us?" Mi Yan looked at her warily.
Deng Jian's wife replied softly: "Queen of the People's Clan, before the King of Danyang arrived in Daliang and ...... at the banquet."
She explained the cause and effect in detail, and Liu Yuanxiang understood it.
Of course, Ning Ze said this matter, and he would not hide it from his wives, so they all knew about Deng Jian.
Ning Ze also expected that Deng Jian would try to contact him, after all, his loyalty was so low and his situation was so poor, put himself in his shoes and think about it, how many people could resist the temptation when they encountered such a situation?
It's just that I didn't expect Deng Jian to let his wife go out in person.
Deng Jian's wife, Wang, finished speaking, expressing her husband's intention to take refuge in Huaguo, and looked at Liu Yuanxiang and them nervously.
After figuring out the situation, Liu Yuanxiang showed a warm smile, stepped forward to hold Wang's hand, and said softly: "I see! Madame is really a heroine among women, which is really admirable." You two made the right decision, but today you were still too reckless!"
"Why?" Wang asked curiously.
"Madame pretended to be dizzy in the Xuanjiao Taoist Temple, so many people watched, it was easy to cause a topic. Chu Meiren explained beside her, "If you delay a little longer, you will attract more attention." Fortunately, we reacted and immediately took you away and pushed the topic down. Otherwise, after this news spreads, contrary to your expectations, the entire Daliang County will know. ”
When Wang heard this, his face changed slightly: "The people's daughter is smart and thoughtful, I hope to forgive me!"
"It's okay!" Liu Yuanxiang said, "It's better to be careful next time." ”
"Then my husband's matter ......"
"I know everything about this," Liu Yuanxiang said, "The prince has the ability to know people, and he praises General Deng." If the general can get along, he will definitely be able to be reused! However, in Daliang County, everything must be done carefully, and at this time it is not allowed to be publicized, and General Deng had better do everything as usual and be patient a little. Before the prince left, he must make plans for General Deng and his family. ”
Wang was overjoyed and thanked again and again.
Wait until Deng Jian comes home in the evening and inform him of this incident.
Deng Jian was also extremely happy, he didn't expect King Danyang to attach so much importance to himself, it seems that it is really time to operate, and the husband and wife are doing everything as usual, so as not to be seen by outsiders.
Liu Yuanxiang informed her husband of the situation of the Wang family, Ning Ze was not surprised, if Deng Jian was unmoved, then there was no need to pay attention to it. In this case, I don't know how to grasp the opportunity when I see it, and no matter how good my ability is, it's useless. Fortunately, it's clever enough to be used.
He was already thinking about how [Pencil www.qbxs.xyz] how to help Deng Jian and his family leave, of course, not only Deng Jian.
In the next few days, before the celebration of the centennial parade of Xuanjiao, Ning Ze took his wife to play around Daliang County, and often met some civil and military officials in the county in his spare time, inviting them to chat a few words and praise them.
Sima Fa sent people to keep an eye on Ning Ze and understand what he did every day.
But the officials that Ning Ze has contacted will also let people secretly investigate to ensure that the two sides have nothing to do with each other. Monitor them at the same time to see who has been socializing too much with Ning Ze, or who is overly enthusiastic.
Ning Ze knew that someone was watching him from the virtual map.
Although Daliang County is full of red dots representing hostile forces, it is still very eye-catching to follow behind him all the time.
He specifically looked for some officials and generals with very low loyalty, or relatively low, passing ability values or relatively good ones, of course, not just to say a few words.
It is rare to visit the enemy city, of course, you have to see the needle and rebel against some civilian and military generals who are already dissatisfied with their own situation, or have the ability to be ignored.
Huaguo is employing people, and there is an extreme shortage of talents. Rebellion is also one of the means of attracting talent, and it is easier than recruiting people by themselves.
This kind of thing is also being done by the enemy, and the meticulous work stationed in China is also trying his best to plot against his own officials and generals.
Of course, there is Ning Ze on the Huaguo side, and he praises and rewards every three or five times, and tries to keep the loyalty of officials and generals in various places in the safety line, so it is difficult to rebel. The power of the system is so strong that so far the three forces have exhausted their means and have not succeeded once.
It's different on their side, without the existence of a system like Ning Ze, naturally they can't see the loyalty of the generals, and it is impossible to prevent them in advance like Ning Ze and raise their loyalty in advance.
Ning Ze locked on to the targets and contacted them one by one, but Sima Fa couldn't catch direct evidence.
Every time he met these civil and military generals, it was an "accidental" act, and he didn't make an appointment in advance, but he just bumped into each other suddenly.
Why is this possible?
This is the role of underground intelligence, and a large number of detailed works in China have been uncovered, resulting in a blow to the intelligence work of various forces. However, the underground intelligence agents lurking in various forces in China are very hidden, and although a few are unlucky enough to be caught, the underground intelligence network is still operating normally.
Through this underground information, it is easy to grasp the whereabouts of some officials and generals in Daliang County.
When Ning Ze and his wife dangled under Sima Fa's nose, a wave of pirates appeared on the side of Loushan County and launched an offensive against the city that Wang Wei had just occupied.
Pirates wouldn't have suddenly appeared here, let alone be so bold.
Under normal circumstances, they would only plunder passing merchant ships and try to avoid the imperial soldiers. Occasionally attack coastal villages and towns to plunder, and it is impossible to take the initiative to attack the city.
The reason why this happened was that Ma Jian issued an amnesty, as long as the pirates sent troops to attack Loushan and help recapture the city, they could pardon their crimes, and even clear their identities and give Nan Cheng an official position.
Ma Jian is unwilling to do this kind of thing, after all, these are all heinous pirates, who often do evil and harm the people.
It's just that Wang Wei occupied Loushan County, and because the capital Wubao County was seriously damaged, he had no way to recapture the lost city.
Feng Qiao suggested that Ma Jian use pirates against Wang Wei.
First, it can prevent Wang Wei from consolidating Loushan County, and second, it can also take Wang Wei's hands to eliminate pirates, killing two birds with one stone.
The benefits offered to pirates are simply not visible and tangible.
Even if the pirates really defeat Loushan County, I am afraid that more than half of it has been damaged, and it will be destroyed directly when the time comes.
Knowing that he was not really recruiting pirates as officials, but just using them, Ma Jian reluctantly agreed and wrote a "holy decree" to send to the pirates' lair.
As pirates, most of them are low-level people whose lives are not satisfactory, where can you see the hidden murderous motives?
Most people were very happy when they saw the holy decree and Nancheng's promise.
With such a great opportunity, naturally it is impossible to miss it.
So all the pirates in the surrounding sea area were summoned, gathered their forces and rushed to Loushan to launch an offensive against Wang Wei.
Wang Wei has experienced a hundred battles and has rich experience. And he was born in the navy and knows water warfare very well.
After following Ning Ze for many years, he has also learned a lot in the art of war, and he has a powerful army in his hands, and Loushan County as his backing, so he is not afraid of pirates at all.
The two sides engaged in a fierce battle in the waters of Loushan County, and the pirates could not take any advantage.
Seeing that Wang Wei's bone was not easy to gnaw, he wanted to take down Loushan County and Ma Jian's invitation, and it was not easy to get everything promised by the other party, so the pirates stopped the offensive for the time being and gathered together to discuss countermeasures.
In fact, there is nothing to discuss, most of the pirates are illiterate who can't read a single word, only a few of them can read and write, and their education level is also very low, and they can keep accounts in ordinary times, but they don't know anything about the art of war.
It is better to gather the strongest fighters among the pirates of all walks of life, wait until the evening to quietly swim to the shore, and sneak into the port of Loushan County to carry out a night attack.
So the pirates from all walks of life who united sent out the best on their side to form a temporary death squad, and waited until late at night to quietly log in from the side and go in the direction of the port of Loushan County.
These pirates came to the port and launched a surprise attack directly on the defenders' barracks.
Unexpectedly, they rushed into the camp, but they were surrounded by Wang Wei's army.
Wang Wei followed Ning Ze to the east and west, how could he not know the various situations he might encounter during the war?
The pirates are encircled, and they have no choice but to fight their way out.
Wang Wei's side was well prepared, and naturally he focused on annihilating these pirates, so how could he let them go?
After a night of fighting, the pirate death squad was almost wiped out, and the survivors gave up resistance and became prisoners.
The death squad was taken, and Wang Wei took the plan, obtained detailed information from the captives, and relaxed the false signal to the pirates.
The pirates received a false signal, thinking that the death squad had succeeded and had taken the port, and happily sailed over.
However, it was Wang Wei's main fleet that came out from all directions to greet him. Directly open your mouth and "swallow" the pirate fleet in one gulp.
The surrounded pirates resisted desperately, and Wang Wei took Wei Ji and Feng Bing to surround them on three sides, completely cutting off the other party's escape route.
After the fierce battle, the pirates lost more than half of them, and they knew that they could not resist it. In order to survive, he had to surrender to Wang Wei, present Ma Jian's "holy decree", and explain the cause and effect.
Wang Wei accepted the surrender of the pirates, incorporated them, and strengthened the army. All pirate ships were also incorporated into the army.
At the same time, he ordered Feng Bing to send people from all walks of life to take him to each pirate lair to retrieve the materials they had looted and obtained, and use them for the construction of the city defense of Loushan County and the expansion of the army.
Knowing that the pirates were taken down by Wang Wei, there was not much damage to his army, and even Wang Wei used the pirates to enhance his own strength, Ma Jian was extremely depressed.
