Chapter 142: Deep Well Fort

In the deep well fort, two soldiers hid in the hole of the city gate to avoid the wind blowing, and rusty spears were thrown on the ground.

Just boasted that when the imperial army went out to conquer Karaqin, a veteran unintentionally glanced out, and then was stunned, and saw dozens of horsemen on the official road in the distance, coming towards Shenjing Fort.

"Is the garrison back?" The younger soldier said.

The veteran shook his head: "It doesn't look like it, I was also on duty when the garrison left, so I brought a dozen or so personal soldiers, and I didn't have so many horses." ”

"Where did that come from?" The young soldier wondered.

"No matter how much, little biaozi, you have fast legs, go to the garrison mansion to deliver the letter first." The veteran commanded.

The Mongols have not invaded for decades, and there are naturally no bandits in the military town of Xuanfu, so they can only come from the official army. No matter where the officers and soldiers come from, they must inform the garrison as soon as possible.

The young soldier named Biaozi ran away, and the veteran straightened up and walked outside the fort gate.

In less than a moment, the cavalry came to the gate of the fort, and looking at the dress of this group of knights, the old army was shocked.

More than 40 people, half of them were brocade clothes, half of them were officers and soldiers with bright armor, carrying swords and swords, all riding high-headed horses, and a reserve horse carrying supplies, and the equipment was several times stronger than the dozens of family members in the garrison.

"You're the only one guarding the door of this deep well fort?" The knight at the head of the group, dressed in a turquoise brocade suit and a goose hat, asked condescendingly.

The veteran didn't dare to slack off, and said with a smile on his face: "There is also a companion, I went to the garrison to report the news, dare to ask the lord?" ”

The knight said expressionlessly: "Jinyi Wei Baihu Chang Wu, I was ordered to come to Shenjing Fort on business. ”

So saying, he beat his horse and went to the castle. Yes, he is the unlucky Jinyi captain Chang Wu who was sent to arrest Li Zicheng at the beginning, and now he has been promoted to 100 households, and this time he was ordered to come to Shenjing Fort to investigate the case and be responsible for Qingtian.

The veteran didn't dare to stop it, and hurriedly avoided it, it turned out to be Jinyi Wei, could it be that the garrison had committed any case?

Chang Wu rode his horse towards the castle and rushed straight to the tallest mansion, which was the Shenjing Fort Garrison.

However, when he arrived, he saw that the door of the mansion was closed.

Chang Wu waved his hand, and some of his subordinates jumped off their horses and walked over to pat the door knocker.

"If the garrison is not there, we will not accept outsiders." A moment later, a slightly panicked voice came from inside.

Chang Wu smiled coldly and raised his voice: "Jinyiwei was ordered to investigate the case, and the people inside immediately opened the door!"

In the garrison mansion, a young man in a brocade robe had a gloomy face, and there were more than two dozen sergeants standing around him, all of whom looked panicked. Jin Yiwei is the emperor's pro-army, specializing in arresting major cases, and his name is also known to the border town soldiers.

The young man at the head is named Liu Guan, who is the eldest son of Liu Zhi, the garrison of Shenjing Fort, and is also the next generation of Shenjing Fort garrison. All around him are the families raised by the Liu family.

"His Majesty the Emperor has returned to Jingshi, whose order are you serving? My Liu family has been fighting for the Ming Dynasty for generations, what sin have I committed? Liu Guan gritted his teeth and shouted outside.

Chang Wu said coldly: "I was ordered by Lord Hong, the governor of Xuanda, to thoroughly investigate the military rebellion in Xuanfu in October. Do you dare to resist the order and disrespect it? ”

Liu Guan said angrily: "At the time of the mutiny, my father was in Xuanhua City, how could it be related to the rebellion? Don't be framed! ”

Chang Wu sneered: "Liu Zhi was in Xuanhua City at that time, but Liu Zhi's son Liu Guan and others were not there, and it was Liu Guan and others who instigated the rebellion!" ”

"Hugh is going to talk nonsense! I didn't! Liu Guanqi's face turned red. He is the son of a thousand households, and the next one is a thousand households, and some of them are silver, so why incite the military households to make trouble for a few taels of silver?

Chang Wu smiled: "Since there is none, then open the door." If you really didn't participate, you will naturally be cleared. ”

Liu Guan said angrily: "Do you think I am a three-year-old child? In the hands of your Jinyi guards, even if there is no crime, they will be tortured into tricks. ”

The reason why Liu Guan is like a great enemy is because he has received news from Xuanhua City and knows that his father Liu Zhi has been imprisoned. Before he could figure out a way to rescue his father, Jinyiwei suddenly came to Shenjing Fort, which was obviously aimed at the Liu family.

This month, there were faint rumors in Xuanfu that the emperor was going to take action against the generals of Xuanfu and change the military system. At first, Liu Guan didn't believe it, but now he really believes it, the emperor and the new governor of Xuanda are really going to do something to the generals of Xuanfu!

Chang Wu said coldly: "If you don't open the door, you will resist the court, you will rebel, I will give you a quarter of an hour, and after a quarter of an hour, you will storm the door of the house, and if you resist, you will be killed!" ”

"Young master, just fight with them, let them see whose world this deep well fort is!" Han Lei, the captain of the family, shouted angrily.

"Yes, fight with them!" The rest of the family also shouted.

In the frontier military town, the imperial court is too far away from the ordinary military households, and the garrisons are the days of the military households, and these families are more than three times the salary of ordinary military households, and they are the private soldiers of the garrison government, and they are only loyal to the garrison father and son, this phenomenon is very common in the late Ming Dynasty.

Liu Guan's expression was complicated, and he had the urge to order the killing for a while. However, he forcibly held back.

He knew that with his power in Shenjing Fort, it would be easy to kill all these people outside, but there was still an army of the imperial court in Xuanhua City!

"Let's go, let's go over the wall from behind and leave." Liu Guan gritted his teeth.

Even if you do it to people outside, you can't be in the garrison mansion!

A quarter of an hour later, Chang Wu ordered to bang on the door, and several Praetorian Guard soldiers carried a log and slammed into the door of the house, and after a few blows, the door collapsed, and Chang Wu rushed into the house with his men.

After a burst of chickens and dogs, the people in the garrison were forcibly gathered in a flower hall. The wives and concubines of the garrison Liu Zhi are all there, but his eldest son Liu Zhi is missing, as well as most of the family members in the house.

"Search!" The corners of Chang Wu's mouth twitched, and he ordered.

Chang Wu was not surprised by Liu Zhi's escape. After all, Shenjing Fort is people's territory, and there are more than 1,000 military households in the fort, so it is too difficult to catch the willow crown.

However, the Liu family's family is here, and it is nothing to escape a willow crown, and Chang Wu's main task is not to capture the willow crown, but to clear the field in Shenjing Fort!

However, after some inventory, the result surprised Chang Wu that he did not find the land deed book in the mansion, which would bring some trouble to the inventory of the military field.

Could it be that this willow crown actually sensed his intention to come? Chang Wu thought to himself.

"No matter, anyway, most of the military fields to which this Shenjing Fort belongs belong to the Liu family. Tomorrow we will begin to measure all the fields and distribute them to other military households in the fort, and how many waves can be set off by just one willow crown? Chang Wu sneered.
