Chapter 184: Oh no, King Pingnan and Ao Bai are reversed together! (Ask for a subscription, ask for a monthly pass)
"The eldest lady, the second lady, the little county lord, don't worry, there is no worship in Xin'an County, absolutely not! The worship in the Fengtian Mansion of General Hu in Shenzhen is what I pretended! The army of Xin'an County is not the king of the west, but the Heaven and Earth Society and the Yanping Royal Mansion of Dayuan Island."
In the small hall in the castle of Macao, he was talking to the two sisters Wu Xiaosu and Wu Xiaogang, as well as Yang Xiaohuan, as well as Wang Shiyuan, the highest "master" who stayed in the Macao commercial market, and said that the "deep worship" He Tianran had just come from Xiangdao.
Wang Zhongxiao really didn't say anything about "keeping secrets", under his repeated admonitions, the secret of "Ao Bai is dead" is now only known to Wang Fuchen, Wang Zhongxiao, Wang Zhongyi, Wang Zhongxian, Wang Zhongren, Wang An, Wang Quan, Yu Deshui, Wang Jizhen and other nine people! Not to mention that people at He Tianran's level don't know, even Wang Shiyuan, Chen Yonghua, and Yang Qilong, the three core members of the Heaven and Earth Society, don't know that Ao Bai has turned to ashes.
As for Wu Xiaosu, Wu Xiaogang, and Yang Xiaohuan, the three big and small ladies, they don't know that Ao Bai didn't hang up. Oh, if Wang Zhongxiao hadn't leaked this matter when he was asleep and talking in his sleep, Wu Xiaowu and Yang Xiaohuan would definitely not know. As for Wu Xiaogang, she hasn't officially taken up her post yet, no, it's going to bed!
And not only did these three not know that Aobai had turned into ashes, they didn't even know that "Deep Aobai" was a fake. It wasn't until now that they learned about it from He Tianran.
Of course, this is not a deliberate leak of secrets by He Tiantian, but an act of order.
Because Wang Zhongxiao is now an independent warlord with territory and an army - 20,000 soldiers in three counties and one pass, the territory is not large, but the strength is not weak, and he can be regarded as the No. 1 player in the chaotic times of the late Qing Dynasty that came in advance.
And at this point, according to the practice of the feudal society, Wang Zhongxiao also has to arrange an heir for himself.
Although the heir may not be able to really inherit, Wang Zhongxiao is only in his early twenties now, and he can't die after watching it for a while, but the arrangement still has to be arranged, and with the heir, the followers below can feel at ease.
And the heir he arranged for himself is, of course, his son-in-law Wang Xiuqing - although Xiuquan is older than him and is the eldest son, but the heir is Xiuqing after all. And Xiuquan is Xiuqing's alternate, ranking in the second position.
The reason for this arrangement is actually for two reasons, one is to deprive Wang Fuchen and Wang Jizhen of the inheritance rights of the three counties and one pass and the 20,000 Guangdong township troops.
If it wasn't arranged earlier, who knows if there will be a father's kindness and filial piety, brother's friend and brother's respect?
This one is a living Lu Bu, a little living Lu Bu, and a treacherous Wang Jizhen who seems to be loyal and treacherous. Believe in them, or believe in the beginning of man, the nature of evil!
The second reason is that Wang Zhongxiao arranged for Wang Xiuqing to succeed him, and he was also responsible for his subordinates.
Because without Wang Zhongxiao as a leader, the plate he left behind would not be able to win the world no matter what, how could Wang Fuchen and Wang Jizhen have that level? Instead of tossing around, let's join Wu Sangui's camp and lie flat!
Although the current Wu Xiaosu is still called Yang Xiaosu to the outside world, Wang Zhongxiao's most confidant subordinates already know that she is Wu Guogui's daughter.
Therefore, Wang Zhongxiao's arrangement is to ensure the bottom of his subordinates, so that everyone can follow Wang Zhongxiao with peace of mind.
And since Wang Zhongxiao has determined the inheritance of Wang Xiuqing's little doll, the "queen mother" Wu Xiaosu is going to pick up the script of "Ma Niangniang" as "Rabbit Niangniang".
So when Wang Zhongxiao left Macao this time, he had already told him that the Ao Bai on the Xiangdao Island next door was actually his own person, and he was dressed by He Tianran's beard - this He Dabeard was Wu Guogui's personal soldier, and he was still a person in the "Rabbit Niangniang"!
However, Wang Zhongxiao was in a hurry to send troops to cut Shang Kexi, and did not talk to the "Rabbit Niangniang" in detail, but just gave He Tianran an order, asking him to quickly bring some people to Macao to defend the "Rabbit Niangniang" and worship the young master by the way.
I also told Xiao Su that if there is anything I don't understand, I can ask He Nature. Anyway, He Tianran didn't know much.
"What about Suzhou Aobai and Wenzhou Aobai before?" Wu Xiaowu still doesn't give up, how can he not know where Ao Bai is? Ao Bai must have taken refuge in her grandfather Wu Sangui.
Wu Ao joins forces, the world is in hand!
"That's me!" He Tianran patted his chest, "Suzhou Aobai is me, Wenzhou Aobai is me, Shenzhen Aobai is still me!" ”
"What? That's all you? Wu Xiaogang on the side was surprised, "Where is the real Aobai?" ”
"Little county lord," He Tianran spread his hands, "I don't know about this. He may have hid in some deep mountain and old forest to live in seclusion, or maybe he found a place where no one was there and cut himself off. ”
"Brother Big Beard is right, the sky is big, a character like Ao Bai really wants to hide, where is it so easy for others to find? He doesn't even have to retreat to the mountains, as long as he changes his name and surname, he can still live in peace. ”
Wang Shiyuan agreed with He Tianran's remarks, and went one step further and put forward a more reasonable hiding plan.
He should be the person who knows how to hide the most in the whole world, just now, he ostensibly serves as the general manager of the Macau Commercial Market and the chief treasurer of the Guangdong Customs Road Bank in the name of Wang Fuchen's cousin, but in fact he is hiding!
Wang Fuchen's cousin, the governor of Macau, and the chief shopkeeper of the bank, make it impossible for people to associate him with the third prince Zhu, the chief helmsman of the Heaven and Earth Society.
And among the high-level leaders of the Heaven and Earth Society, only a very few people know that he is the third prince of Zhu who "can never be killed".
"Where is the Ao Bai going to hide?" This time it was Yang Xiaohuan who asked the question.
She knows more secrets than Wu Xiaosu, except for the matter of turning ashes into ashes, she doesn't know, she knows most of Wang Zhongxiao's secrets, for example, she knows Wang Shiyuan's true identity.
Wang Shiyuan said half-jokingly: "It's possible anywhere, maybe Ao Bai is hiding in our Macau business market?" ”
Hiding in Macau?
Several people present were stunned, as if it was really possible!
Isn't the most "free" city in the world now Macau? People from all over the world can come, including Aobai, of course. It doesn't seem to be a place to worship here!
Moreover, people who move into the Macau business market do not need any "road guides", they only need to report their names and register a Macao household registration when they enter the customs. Moreover, there are also a lot of commercial halls, silver accounts, and money banks in Macao, which is very convenient for money to enter and exit, and there are many ways to make money - many maritime merchants have the need for financing!
I don't know if it's really a coincidence, just when Wang Shiyuan, the "mayor" of Macau, was joking about the whereabouts of Aobai, the head of the patrol house in the Macau commercial market, it was Zhang Twenty-one, the old man of the third prince of Zhu, who was now renamed Zhang Baosan (Bao Zhu Third Prince) Strong man, hurried to the outside of the lobby, opened his throat and shouted: "Manager Wang, the humble post has just received a secret report. Ao Bai infiltrated the Macau business market and wanted to cause trouble in Macau! ”
"What?"
"Is that so?"
"Mr. Wang, you"
Wu Xiaosuo, Yang Xiaohuan, and Wu Xiaogang all looked at Wang Shiyuan with a surprised look - your crow mouth is really powerful!
Wang Shiyuan didn't expect that he would actually say a prophecy, so he hurriedly called Zhang Baosan in and asked him, "Twenty-one, what's going on?" ”
"Manager Wang," Zhang Baosan said, "This morning, a person claiming to be a servant of the Huang family in Xinhui Eling ran to patrol the Yamen and said that Huang Linsheng of the Huang family in Eling was disguised as a merchant in Foshan, and led Ao Bai and a group of dead soldiers under the Pingnan Wang clan to sneak into Aomen, and also colluded with several new gentry to prepare for a big trouble in Macau. It is also said that Chen Shikai of Humen Town will also lead the naval army from Lingdingyang to raid Macao together! ”
Wang Shiyuan gasped: "Twenty-one, is this person reliable?" ”
Zhang Baosan nodded and said, "It's not bad. I asked in person, so I shouldn't be able to fake it. ”
Wu Xiaowu frowned beautifully, and her face was solemn: "I really didn't expect Ao Bai to take refuge in Shang Kexi!" ”
Wang Shiyuan frowned and analyzed: "This is also reasonable. The friendship between the monk and the monk is older, but he is not very familiar with the king of the west. Perhaps when he was outside the Guan, the monk Ao Bai had already had a fateful friendship. ”
This Wang Shiyuan is still quite good at reasoning, and it is quite logical!
"That's right!" Wu Xiaowu nodded, and then looked at He Tianran: "Big hair. Now that Macau is empty, there can be no chaos! ”
Although Wang Zhongxiao's Guangdong Township Army has quite a large number of people, the Township Army is not a standing army after all, and even if it is not a busy agricultural army now, it is impossible for all the people to be stationed in a few walled military camps in Macao to receive training.
Therefore, after Wang Zhongxiao took away 6,000 township soldiers, there were less than 800 township soldiers left in Macao, most of whom were gunners and garrisons guarding forts in various walled cities.
Otherwise, Wang Zhongxiao would not have ordered He Tianran to bring two hundred iron soldiers to Macao to watch the scene.
Since I'm here to see the field, why are you waiting for? He stood up suddenly, patted his chest and said, "Madam, don't worry, I'll take my brother to arrest this Aobai!" ”
Wang Shiyuan also stood up: "Big beard, I will go to the Macao Express Class and the Zhuang Class with you on the 21st Belt to catch Aobai!" ”
Then he turned back to Wu Xiaosu and said, "Madam, close the castle gate, no matter what chaos happens outside, don't open the door." As long as the castle is not lost, the principal's foundation remains. ”
Macau Castle is the location of the Jingwu School, the Restoration School, the Guangdong Customs Road, the Guangdong Customs Bank, and the Macao Artillery Factory, and also stores a large amount of gold, silver, grain, gunpowder, and guns.
Moreover, the family members of Wang Zhongxiao, the middle and upper class members of the group, also live in the Macau castle!
As long as the castle is not lost, everything is under control!
Wu Xiaosuo, this lady is also worthy of being a tiger girl, she is not a layman in the military, she nodded, and said confidently: "You can rest assured, with me guarding the castle with the big guys, even if Shang Kexi brings the soldiers to fight, he will definitely not be able to take it!" ”
She didn't say this casually, the drill of mobilizing female dependents and servants to guard the Macau castle had been carried out many times! Moreover, most of the ladies and servants in the castle have participated in shooting training and can correctly master the loading and shooting of arquebuses. Of course, it is not possible to go out of the city to fight in the field, but there is really nothing wrong with holding the castle.
At the same time, in the hotel where Huang Linsheng and Wang Guodong were hiding, which had not yet opened, the air was already so tense that it was about to burn!
Because the people here have already discovered that someone has escaped!
The name of the person who escaped was Huang Xiaogou, a slave of Huang Linsheng's Huang Siye's family, and he was sold into the Huang family when he was a child, and after he arrived at the Huang family, he followed Huang Linsheng as a slave. The name of "puppy" was given to him by Huang Linsheng.
Huang Linsheng trusted him very much and took him with him when he went to Guangzhou. So he missed the "Three Counties Juntian" - "Three Counties Juntian" of course also includes "Emancipated Slaves"!
The slaves of the local tyrants of the three counties must also be liberated, become free men, and participate in Juntian.
So if this Huang puppy hadn't been born with Huang Lin to Guangzhou, then he would not only have personal freedom now, but also get land, and most likely he would have become a township soldier in the three counties. However, he is now the first Huang Linsheng and the credit of "Guangzhou Aobai", which will definitely allow him to get more benefits!
"This, this, how is this good? I really didn't expect this minion to dare to rebel against Wang Xietai, can you hurry up and get an idea? ”
Huang Linsheng has completely messed up, and he has forgotten that it was not his minion Huang Xiaopu, who rebelled this time, but himself!
Wang Guodong glanced at him, speechless in his heart for a while. Who are these people? I don't even know that I'm rebelling! No wonder his men betrayed him!
Thinking of this, he waved his hand violently, interrupting Huang Linsheng's words, and then looked at a room full of extremely nervous anti-thieves, and said calmly: "What if the anti-thieves in Macao know that we are going to rebel?" The yellow puppy didn't know if my worship was fake. Now it's Ao Bai in Macau! Wang Zhongxiao wants to be in Macao, and he may be able to stabilize. He's taken the GIs away now, and there's only a few small fish and shrimp left. What's the Macau governor's name? ”
"It's called Wang Shiyuan!"
Someone replied.
"I've never heard of it!" Wang Guodong snorted, gritted his teeth, and gave the order to start the incident, "Start working immediately, and raise the banner of General Hu in Fengtian. Take Macao, all the kings and thieves, and drive away the Hulu! ”
"Take Macao, punish the king and thief, and drive away the Hulu!"
Wang Guodong waved his hand: "Let's go!" ”
"Fengtian has an order to ask General Hu Ao: take Macao, punish the king and thief, and drive Hu Lu!"
"Take Macao, punish the king and thief, and drive away the Hulu."
"Bang Bang Bang"
On the 10th day of October in the 11th year of Kangxi's reign, on an otherwise calm afternoon, in a corner of the Macao commercial market near the inner harbor of Haojiang, suddenly a group of thugs wearing round-necked robes, red scarves or red hoods on their heads, and holding sharp knives or muskets in their hands, played the banner of "Fengtian to fight General Hu Ao", and also openly shouted the slogan "Zhu Wang drives Hu away".
The number of this group of thugs is not large, at the beginning, there were only about 200 people in Dingtian, even if Macao was empty, the total number of garrison village soldiers, fast squads, and strong squads was more than 1,000, and they could be completely suppressed.
But this group of thugs played the banner of Aobai, which is a bit fooling Everyone knows that Aobai is in Xinhui next door, which is a big force with more than 10,000 people, and it is also Wu Sangui's person.
Now that Wang Zhongxiao is on the expedition with the main force, if Wu Sanwei and Ao Bai take advantage of the weakness to take Macao, can Macao be defended?
More people responded to this flicker!
There are already hundreds of landlords in the three counties who have lost their land in the Macau commercial market, and they have just lost their land, although they have all taken a small piece of land in Macao as compensation, but now the prosperity of the Macao commercial market is still relatively limited, and they have not received much benefit, so it is the most dissatisfied time.
I dreamed that someone could make a scene, even if I couldn't turn the sky upside down, it would be good to give the surname Wang a little hardship!
Now that I hear that Aobai is calling, what else is there to say? Hurry up and respond, maybe you can mix up with the heroes of the old Wu family, and won't the land come back?
In addition, the role of that Huang Lin is not small, although these gentry of the three counties who were moved to Macao do not know Aobai, but everyone knows the fourth master of Huang Si in Xinhui Eling!
The northwest part of Macau's commercial market suddenly became chaotic.
Hundreds or thousands of rioters, all holding their heads in red cloth and carrying sticks or swords – swords are not controlled in the Macau commercial market, but arquebuses are not allowed to be carried into the market without permission. Maritime merchants who came to trade in Macao either left their muskets on board or handed them over to the commercial market management yamen below the customs road for safekeeping. However, some of the thugs under the hands of "Aobai" still got arquebuses, and at this time they were holding muskets and firing indiscriminately, and some people were holding lit torches and burning houses everywhere!
For a time, this gang of thugs actually caused chaos in a commercial market in Macao, and the "good people and loyal businessmen" who had not participated in the uprising also became in an uproar.
"Ao Bai is coming."
"Oh no, King Pingnan and Ao Bai are reversed together!"
"King Pingnan is reversed!"
