Chapter 138: The fifth brother doesn't like people

"Lu Heng, why bother?"

Qian Daotai felt sorry for the Yichang prefect, since he had to give it sooner or later, what did he have to do with this seed just now!

Waste time.

It's also a pity that there are fifteen really full members.

The more I thought about it, the more distressed I became, and I couldn't help shaking my head there, looking embarrassed.

Wang Wu looked puzzled, and couldn't help but ask why this Daotai lord who was afraid of death looked like he had been robbed at home.

"Ugh"

Qian Daotai did not dare to hide it, and frankly said that if these Manchurian generals wanted the Qing court to pay for redemption, they would ask for 5,000 taels per person.

"Even if the Qing court refuses to pay, their families can make it up, fifteen is seventy-five thousand taels, alas."

A sigh, as if the money was missing from his Qian Wentao's pocket.

"Oh."

Wang Wu nodded slightly after hearing this, looking very reasonable.

He didn't dare to guarantee others, so he asked Ao Bai to pay for his brother to redeem him, and he was sure to send the silver without saying a word.

It's not 5,000 taels, at least 50,000.

The price is higher, Wang Wu may not be able to cooperate, let the broken leg Mu Lima kill a few Ming army guards and successfully "escape", and compose a hymn for the return of heroes for the Eight Banners, so as to save the next day for Ao Bai and reduce the impact of the defeat on his governance.

However, this matter is not urgent at the moment, and it must be squeezed out of Mulima's surplus value before it can be considered.

You have to find a middleman.

casually asked Qian Wentao again: "How much silver does Qian Daotai think you are worth?" ”

"Huh?"

Qian Wentao's face turned pale, he quickly shook his head, and said with a smile: "The general said that he was joking, the subordinate officials are worthless, they are worthless and do not hide from the general, the subordinate officials are really abandoning the dark and turning to the light, changing their minds, and are willing to atone for the past."

A heartfelt remark almost burst into tears.

It's not that it's a lie, it's really that there's no turning back.

Today, all the officials in Yichang City saw Qian Daotai shouting for the Ming army, so they really wanted the family to pay for him to ransom him.

Da Ming doesn't want his life, Da Qing wants it!

I can only follow the Ming army to the end.

Wang Wu smiled and ignored this Daotai master who was greedy for life and afraid of death.

The food and materials needed by the Ming army were being sent out in horse-drawn carts in Yichang City.

At first, he used a rope to hang down, but later Wang Wu found that this was too inefficient, and he had to delay it for a day.

Let people inform the Qing army in the city, the Ming army retreated five miles, so that the Qing army does not have to worry about the Ming army seizing the door, and can rest assured that the food and materials needed by the Ming army will be sent out from the city gate.

It's more efficient, and it's good for everyone.

Wang Wu really didn't have much interest in entering the city.

Before the momentum rises, what is the use of occupying a prefecture?

10,000 people eat three days of grain, plus salt, vegetable oil, pig and mutton, and the beans that Wang Wu asked for for the war horse, the portion is very large, but Yichang still has it as a capital city, but there is no two hundred carts that can't fit it at all.

Naturally, all the wagons that sent things out were detained by the Ming army, and the coachman was put back.

Ten thousand taels of silver were also brought in a wagon.

Wang Wu asked for this silver not to pay the soldiers who followed him, because the Ming army did not need to pay at all at the moment.

He planned to be able to buy much-needed supplies for the Ming army through some gray areas when he encountered difficulties.

Even when he was chased by the Qing army, he tried to see if he could spend money to buy a road.

Didn't Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong do this back then?

Money is a thing, and it is also common to change dynasties.

With some rabbits and dead dogs, maybe you can play with it.

It was the soldiers of the Green Battalion who sent things to the Ming army, and there were no official officials in the city who came forward to connect with the Ming army, and they were responsible for the two prefects' yamen and six room secretaries.

In this regard, Wang Wu expressed his understanding.

After all, no one can afford to be accused of being an enemy.

The question is, just don't show up?

Typical ear-covering and bell theft.

What's even more funny to Wang Wu is that the two booksellers who are responsible for delivering things still have the courage to ask him for a document at the end.

It is not the receipt document presented by Wang Yaowu, the general of Daming Huguang, but the receipt document of Mu Lima, the general of Jingxi of the Great Qing Dynasty, stamped with the general's seal.

I don't know what the people in the city think.

What is the difference between General Jingxi and the Ming army in the hands of the Ming army?

However, he still wrote the receiving document in line with the principle of friendliness, and finally picked up the general seal of Mulima and stamped it, and after thinking about it, he asked Zhang Pengyu to take the seal of the governor of Huguang and stamped it.

It probably means buy one get one free.

The people sent the things, of course Wang Wu would not be treacherous, and immediately ordered the whole army to set off around the city and advance to Jingzhou in the east.

But before the team set off, Wang Wu had the remaining three Manchurian deputies among the captives called over in one place.

There were six deputy capitals with Mulima on the expedition, in addition to the dead Hobusso, Santu and Suwayan, who had just been cut down, there were still Mohai, the deputy capital of the Zhenghong Banner, the deputy capital of the Blue Banner, and the Zhun Tower, the deputy capital of the Blue Banner.

Among the three, Mo Haizu was one of the so-called five founding ministers of the Qing court.

Mo Hai was also the first to be brought over to see Wang Wu.

Wang Wu got straight to the point: "Do you want to go back?" ”

Mo Hai was stunned, not understanding the meaning of the young general in front of him.

Wang Wu chuckled, meaning that as long as Mo Hai wrote him a guarantee that he would not be an enemy of the Ming army, he could be secretly released later.

As a result, Mo Hai categorically refused.

How could he have embarrassed Amma!

Since the moment he was captured, he has already had the will to die, how can he do something that insults his ancestors!

"Alright, you can go back."

Wang Wu was not angry, and asked people to bring Mo Hai back, and asked people to bring Turge, the deputy capital of the Zhenglan Banner, over.

Same question, but this time with a different answer.

Turg actually agreed to write a guarantee that he would not be an enemy of the Ming army!

"You are a smart person, the stupid people in this world die early, and the smart people can live longer."

Wang Wu praised Turg very satisfied, and asked him to write a letter of guarantee for Turg.

Autograph with clay fingerprints, in addition to the blue flag of Turg and the deputy capital seal.

Picked up the guarantee written by Turg and looked at it, and after blowing it again and waiting to dry, Wang Wu carefully folded it and put it in his arms, bowed his head and gave a few words to Zhang Pengyu, the palm flag.

Later, when the Ming army continued to advance eastward, the deputy commander of the Zhenglan Banner suddenly struggled to rope restraint and jumped into the forest when he passed through a dense forest.

The Ming army immediately chased after them, but because the mountains were high and the forests were dense, they actually asked people to run away, so angry that the Ming soldiers took fire guns and bombarded the mountains and forests.

Seeing this, the other Manchurian captives also wanted to do the same, but none of them could break free from the rope, and could only look enviously at the direction in which Turg had disappeared.

The dog in front of the team asked Wang Wu with a puzzled face: "Fifth brother, that's a Tartar deputy commander, the official is so big, what are you doing with him in a good manner?" ”

"It's nothing, I'm just looking at the Yichang prefect who doesn't like it."

The corners of Wang Wu's mouth were slightly upturned, and he looked in a good mood.

The dog is more and more confused: What does the fifth brother's dislike look at the prefect of the house has to do with letting go of the Tartar deputy capital?

I don't understand it, but I feel that the fifth brother is very powerful.
