Volume 2 Heroes in Troubled Times Chapter 165: Soldiers Don't Get Tired of Deception (2)
"Wang Zhixian, is it?"
Wang Mu nodded, Ling Jingyang introduced himself to him lightly, he was Ling Jingyang, the left mighty general of the rear camp of the Dashun army, Wang Mu heard that Ling Jingyang was the left mighty general, and hurriedly gave him the benefit of bowing, after all, this Zuo Weiwu general belongs to a senior general, much higher than his Qipin county order.
"General Ling, the lower official is the magistrate of Guangling County, and it is the responsibility of the official to defend the territory, the general wants to make achievements here, and the lower official does not support or oppose it, I just hope that the general will not hurt the innocent."
Ling Jingyang smiled, and he said, "Lord Wang, you can take away all the people you think are innocent, but do you think I will let you take away a group of people, and then leak the top-secret information that our army has set up in Guangling City?" ”
Wang Mu paused, he didn't know what Ling Jingyang was going to do?
"You just said that the rebels are assembled in Andong Zhongtunwei, Wang Zhixian, let me ask you, do you still have a Ming in your heart?"
Li Rufeng and Murong Tu are not surprised, after all, they were both Ming soldiers before, and Ling Jingyang was also asking Wang Mu, what is his attitude towards the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty?
Wang Mu closed his eyes and thought for a while before he opened his mouth to show his attitude.
"The lower officials thought that the scholars had the world in mind, and the Ming Dynasty was defeated in Jiangbei, but there was still a court in the south of the Yangtze River, and the lower officials did not have that ability, and if they had the ability, they would have taken the family to Yingtianfu a long time ago, vowing to exterminate the group of criminals, expel the Jiannu, and let the Sun and Moon military flag reappear in the world."
Li Rufeng listened to Wang Mu's bunch of nonsense, and Murong Tu made a look, Murong Tu hurriedly retired with Ling Jingyang, Ling Jingyang nodded, and ordered Li Rufeng to rush back to Wei County, and bring all the troops and baggage in Wei County to Guangling County.
After Li Rufeng and Murong Tu went down, Ling Jingyang asked Wang Mu to sit down, he wanted to have a good chat with Wang Mu, and Wang Mu also sat down happily and talked with Ling Jingyang.
"Lord Wang, I heard that there are national thieves in Shanxi, I don't know if this is true or not?"
Ling Jingyang was talking about Jiang Liang and Fan Yongdou and other businessmen who betrayed the country and sought profits, but Wang Mu mistakenly thought that Ling Jingyang was just talking about Jiang Huang, he was originally optimistic about Jiang Huang anyway, but Jiang Huang surrendered to the Qing army anyway, which made his hot heart instantly cold.
"General Ling, do you mean General Jiang?"
"No, no, Jiang Zongbing is a national thief, but there are small national thieves under him, these national thieves send valuable materials to the Jiannu outside the Guan, without their blood transfusion, the Jiannu outside the Guankou would not have grown so fast."
Wang Mu is a magistrate in Shanxi, and he knows the situation in Shanxi very well, as soon as Ling Jingyang said this, he immediately understood, Ling Jingyang was talking about some merchants in Shanxi, as a local official, of course he knew that these merchants had close contacts with Jiannu and Mongolia.
In some merchants' homes, the shop is Jiannu's intelligence den in Shanxi, but there are still people above these merchants, and he is a small county magistrate, and he has not seen it because he has no ability to uproot these merchants and intelligence stations.
But in his heart, he longed for an external force to kill these national thieves, and he suddenly thought of how many big shops there were in Guangling County?
"General, there are several shops in our county, and I heard that there is a big relationship behind them, maybe these people are the national thieves in the mouths of adults."
Ling Jingyang thought of these things in Wei County, because Wei County was captured by the Dashun army, and the soldiers and civilians in it had already run clean, and almost all of them were Dashun soldiers and their families, so he thought that there must be these national thieves and businessmen in other states and counties in Shanxi, and it happened that Wang Mu talked to him about this.
He asked Wang Mu if there were any of these shops?
Wang Mu didn't know this, after all, he was focused on the militia group, but he could lead Ling Jingyang to the shop to have a look, maybe there were still people in the shop?
Ling Jingyang didn't come forward, he said to Wang Mu: "Lord Wang, if you help us, you are helping Da Ming, understand?" ”
Wang Mu didn't react for a while, Ling Jingyang smiled and didn't say anything, although Wang Mu didn't understand, but he was still willing to help Ling Jingyang, he took Ling Jingyang's entrustment, walked around the city, and found five shops including the Fan family, and there were still garrisons in the shops.
I heard that Wang Zhixian came to the shop, and the people in these shops showed great enthusiasm, among which the shopkeeper of the Fan family was very enthusiastic, and the head of the Fan family had an order, as long as he surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, the Fan family should be treated warmly by the first shop in Shanxi.
Wang Zhixian looked at the shopkeeper of the Fan family with a flattering face, and said deliberately: "There is a big tree behind the Fan family." ”
The shopkeeper of the Fan family is Fan Yongdou's distant nephew, named Fan Honghuo, who intends to have a prosperous business, he modestly said to Wang Mu that the Fan family is only doing things for the master, and congratulations to Wang Zhixian for getting an elite soldier, which is gratifying.
Wang Mu moved his mind and said to him: "Fan shopkeeper, my soldiers and horses are proud soldiers, if your master wants, I will give it to your master." ”
This is an army, Fan Honghuo can't ask for it, he has a high status in the Fan family, but recently news came from Datong City, saying that the merchants of Miyun Town were building a bridge in the middle, and there was also a Dashun army soldier who wanted to surrender to the Qing army.
The one who set up a bridge for the merchants of Miyun Town was his cousin Fan Guangjin, if the cousin introduced a soldier to the master, he would not be able to compete with Fan Guangjin in the future.
He hurriedly made a gesture of invitation to Wang Mu, wanting to take a step to talk to Wang Mu in further detail, but Wang Mu was sloppy and said to him: "This is an arrogant soldier, can the shopkeeper Fan call the shots?" ”
Isn't that a slap in the face? Fan Hong stood up angrily and told Wang Mu that the Fan family's business in Ulzhou was his own decision, and he had the ability to call the shots, if Wang Zhixian could persuade this soldier and horse to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, he would give Wang Mu a lot of good words with his master, and Wang Mu would rise step by step in the future.
Wang Mu nodded lightly and said to Fan Honghuo: "Tonight, come to the house for dinner, the general of the Dashun Army will also come, and everyone will chat while eating." ”
Fan Honghuo was so overjoyed that after he sent Wang Mu away, he deliberately came to the basement of the shop, turned around, stopped in front of the door of an inconspicuous basement, and knocked very carefully.
A voice rang out inside.
"Come in."
Fan Honghuo gently pushed open the door and looked at his master's back to him, he lowered his head to greet his master.
"Congratulations to the master, the slave has good news today, and I am here to share it with the master."
The master in Fan Honghuo's mouth is the leader of the Manchu Dynasty's underground spy organization in the states and counties of Datong Prefecture, and each leader is from the Liupinhu Military Academy, especially Jiang Huang's surrender to the Qing Dynasty, the Qing army scouts, and the fine work is even more pervasive, almost high-sounding into Datong Mansion and other places in Shanxi.
There is also an espionage organization in Guangling County, and the leader is named Yasiha, a veteran of the Eight Banners who can speak fluently, and he said to Fan Honghuo: "Well, you are very smart, does this army know the roots?" ”
