Chapter 55: A Visit to the Sage

I didn't know that Luo Luohun had practiced arching horses since he was a child, and his body was strong. It was his personal guards who cushioned him, perhaps because the caliber of the shells was too small. In short, Luo Luohun couldn't die for a while. But things aren't going to get much better.

In the face of such an unexpected situation, where does Man Dahai have the heart to care about Chongqing City. He didn't dare to report to Hauge, but he didn't dare not report it. After hesitating again and again, I still reported the matter here as it was. As for how Hauge was angry, that's another matter.

Zeng Ying waited in Chongqing City for three days, and finally had no choice. Finally Kaesong surrendered.

However, when Zeng Ying opened the city, Zeng Ying's headquarters was no longer many, and there were only thousands of soldiers. In addition, Wang Long's losses in Chongqing were not small, so Zeng Ying did not get any high treatment, but he was just named an idle official and sent to Nanjing with his family.

After Wang Lung captured Chongqing Mansion, Hu Tang, the governor of Sichuan, immediately had something to do, he took over all the general affairs of Chongqing, and even selected two or three thousand people from Zeng Ying's army as the governor's target. Faced with the complicated situation in Sichuan, Wang Long did not dare to leave Chongqing. But they did not dare to enter the Sichuan Basin rashly. Instead, with Chongqing as the center, he cautiously expanded his influence in all directions.

At this time, news came that Haoge defeated Yang Zhan under the city of Chengdu, and Yang Zhan withdrew from Chengdu. Hauge continued his pursuit southward.

The situation in central Sichuan continued to evolve, but the Xia army's military operations in Sichuan were coming to an end.

Guangzhou, Zhenhai Building.

Zhang Xuan pinched a letter and looked at the familiar street scene of Guangzhou City.

As the commanding heights of Guangzhou City, standing on the Zhenhai Tower, you can overlook many streets in Guangzhou City. From last year to the present, after Zhang Xuan's rectification, Guangzhou's economic development has also had some looks. At least in the city of Guangzhou, the appearance of those red-haired, yellow-haired foreigners can illustrate this.

Although Macau is the location of customs.

But Guangzhou is the center of Guangdong's economy, and when Zhang Xuan opens up customs, the impact on Guangzhou will be greater than that on Macau.

In the bustling street, all kinds of shouts even reached Zhang Xuan's ears. In this scene full of market atmosphere, Zhang Xuan received the news of Zhang Xianzhong's death.

Zhang Xuan was mentally prepared for Zhang Xianzhong's death, but now that he heard it, he still sighed slightly in his heart. I don't know what to sigh about.

"Childe," the little girl came over with a brocade robe and said, "Isn't Childe going to visit the Cantonese literati today?" Why don't you change your clothes soon? It's too late for a while. ”

Zhang Xuan said: "Just come." Then he folded the letter and put it aside, and said secretly: "It's better not to let Xiaoya know." ”

Xiaoya is everywhere too

counted as begging for food under Zhang Xianzhong.

After a while, Xiaoya sorted out Zhang Xuan's clothes, dressed in a green shirt, with no other color, combing a bun, a jade belt around his waist, and a jade pendant hanging on the jade belt. plus Zhang Xuan's original appearance. When everyone saw it, they would think that he was just a young showman, but they didn't know that he was a general who sat in Tiannan and held more than 100,000 elite soldiers.

Waiting for Zhang Xuan to go downstairs. He Wuyu was already waiting outside.

Since the last time, Zhang Xuan's time to see Fu Shangrui has been short, and the time to see He Wuyu has been long, and this time to visit the gentry from all over Guangdong is He Wusu's idea.

He Wufu gave Zhang Xuan a salute. Zhang Xuan asked, "Who do you want to see today?" ”

He Wuyu said: "Does the general know Zhang Jiayu? ”

Zhang Xuan said: "Naturally, I know Mr. Zhiyuan. Will you go and see him today? ”

Zhang Jiayu is also a person whose name Zhang Xuan has heard in later generations. Zhang Xuan paid special attention to one or two, above ordinary people, the reason is very simple, there is a legend that Zhang Jiayu once surrendered to Li Zicheng when Li Zicheng entered Beijing.

Some say yes, some say no.

Some people also said that Li Zicheng threatened Zhang Jiayu with Zhang Jiayu's parents, and he surrendered.

It was rumored that Zhang Xuan couldn't figure it out for a while.

However, his later memories vaguely remember Zhang Jiayu's local anti-Qing heroes in Guangdong. There are still some abilities.

In the past two months, Zhang Xuan has focused on political affairs, of course, because there are already certain rules in the army, Zhang Xuan only needs to find time to keep an eye on it, and he doesn't need to watch it all the time, but at the end of the political affairs, there are thousands of things and all kinds of complicated. And it moves the whole body.

made Zhang Xuan's spirit exhausted.

He always felt that he was not the lord of Guangdong, but a guest of Guangdong. In fact, the rule of Guangdong is separated by several layers. It's like a castle built on the beach, just on the Wuzhou side, a big defeat, it is estimated that the whole of Guangdong is full of smoke.

His profound meaning arrived, without the support of the local gentry in Guangdong. He can't be the lord of Guangdong anyway. If there is a Guangdong celebrity to serve as the governor of Guangdong. Zhang Xuan's rule over Guangdong is much easier.

This is also why Luo's father and son don't look at Qian Qianyi much. still let Qian Qianyi be the head of the civil officials, even now, there is no intention of changing.

In Guangzhou, he also needs a figure like Qian Qianyi.

Although He Wuyu is also a celebrity in Guangdong. But the reputation is bad. Many people look down on him. Even now He Wuyu prefers to pull the Guangdong celebrities onto the warships of the Xia army, so that his surrender is inconspicuous.

Zhang Jiayu is from Dongguan, but Zhang Jiayu is here

There are also other courtyards in Guangdong. He Wuyu had already inquired clearly, and Zhang Jiayu was in Guangzhou City these days. That's why I visited today.

Even if Zhang Xuan was a light car, he already had more than 100 guards, and almost all the streets were occupied. It's not that Zhang Xuan is domineering, but he has to do it. Zhang Xuan knew very well that his control over Guangdong, especially the city of Guangzhou, was not very deep.

During the Shaowu period, Hu Tang was in the city of Guangzhou and could ambush hundreds of people. And now it is Zhang Xuan's turn to call the shots, and he is still not sure that there are no other opposition forces in Guangzhou. The gentry everywhere are all local snakes, and it is never a big deal to ambush hundreds of men and horses.

Managing a large city of millions of people has never been a difficult thing to do. It was the past and the present.

Even since Zhang Xuan entered Guangzhou, he has been living in Zhenhai Building. Not necessarily to prevent assassination.

He Wusu went up and knocked on the door, and after a while, the door opened, and a young man in his twenties came out, his eyes swept around, looked at He Wuju and said, "Who are you looking for?" ”

He Wuyu looked at the young man, and said with some hesitation: "Are you Jiazhen?" It's all grown so big. ”

This young man is Zhang Jiayu's younger brother, Zhang Jiazhen. He said with some hesitation, "Are you?" ”

He Wuyu said: "Why don't you know me, just call me Brother He, the general is visiting, please come out to greet your eldest brother." ”

Zhang Jiazhen saluted and said, "I'm sorry, Brother He, my eldest brother is not in Guangzhou. ”

He Wuyu's eyes shrank, he was absolutely sure that Zhang Jiayu had entered Guangzhou City, and he had just come over. You can't be mistaken. Since Zhang Jiazhen said so, it means that one of the two of them was mistaken, but He Wuyu didn't think it was him.

Zhang Xuan had already gotten out of the carriage at this moment and said, "Why don't you come in and sit down?" ”

He Wuyu immediately said to Zhang Jiazhen: "Why don't you meet the general?" ”

Although Zhang Jiazhen was respectful, Zhang Xuan saw a trace of unruliness in Zhang Jiazhen's eyes. This kind of look is often seen in the army. Knowing that this Zhang Jiazhen City Mansion has not yet cultivated to his home, he said: "Today, I came in a micro-service, so I don't need to salute to visit friends." ”

Zhang Jiazhen's body relaxed slightly, and said, "Thank you, General." It's just that my brother is really not at home. ”

Zhang Xuan believed that He Wuyu would not lie to himself on this matter, so he could only explain one thing, and Zhang Jiayu avoided it.

Zhang Xuan's heart moved, his eyes swept over Zhang Jiazhen's body, but he saw a lot of things, smiled slightly, and said: "Although I came here to meet Mr. Zhiyuan, but seeing this Brother Zhang, it is not in vain. Didn't Brother Zhang invite us in for a cup of tea? ”

Zhang Jiazhen just said: "Since the general has Yaxing, how dare I disobey?" Please. ”
