Chapter 773: Counterattack (3)
Jinling, as an important city in the south of the Yangtze River, had special local military affairs before Daqing was divided, and belonged to the "Qingyong Army".
The Qingyong Army was previously an army under the direct control of the imperial court and played the purpose of supervising and guarding the cities south of the Yangtze River. The prefects of each city have the right to ask for it, but they do not have the right to call it.
But after the division of Daqing, the Qingyong army was transferred to the frontier, resulting in the cities south of the Yangtze River having no government and no army.
It stands to reason that this is not a big problem. Daqing has issued a ban on weapons for many years, and has always strictly managed the private possession of weapons and the formation of gangs. Even if there is a government and no army, there is no big problem. What's more, it is not an easy task to raise an army.
But even so, this interval is five years, and the changes that have occurred in this period are very big. The secret operation of the Qinglian Sect has finally paid off.
Luo Haotian's more than 3,000 troops are the elite raised by the Qinglian Sect! Although Baihua has long known that Luo Haotian has two hearts, he has also thought about doing something to Luo Haotian.
And the reason why he has not done it for a long time is, on the one hand, because killing Luo Haotian will cause panic among the prefects of other cities. On the other hand, it is because of the 3,000 troops in the city.
I have to say that Luo Haotian is dormant very well. For such a long time, although Baihua has reminded the emperor of Nanqing many times, the emperor of Nanqing has never moved.
Now it's suddenly difficult, but everything is ready......
Judging from the current power structure in Jinling City, it can be said that Jinling City has now fallen into the hands of the Qinglian Sect and Luo Haotian. The only way to recapture it is to storm it!
"Does the other party know that we have troops hidden in the city?" Brother Shi thought for a long time, and then turned his head and asked Baihua again.
Baihua shook her head, "I shouldn't know!" However, it's hard to say, if you move now, I'm just afraid of ...... will reveal your whereabouts! ”
Although she didn't say it explicitly, the meaning was already quite obvious, she hoped that Shi Yuan would stop moving for the time being and see what the other party was going to do. After all, if you want to start a fight in Jinling City, it means that there will be a lot of casualties.
"Leaking whereabouts? I'm afraid it's too late, I've already asked someone to inform them and transfer them to this Lin Mansion!" ”
"Transferred to the Lin Mansion? In this way, it is better to take root in this city and think long-term! Although Shi Yuan's words startled Baihua, after listening to Shi Yuan's words, she still stabilized and muttered.
But...... Brother Shi shook his head, "Think about it in the long run? I didn't think about it that way, and transferring them to the Lin Mansion was just convenient for my deployment. Everyone else has already hit me, and I still have to think about it in the long run? I'm sorry, I can't do that! ”
"So what are you going to do? This Jinling City has now gathered tens of thousands of scholars, they are all the pillars of my Daqing, if there is a war, countless casualties, you will be infamous for eternity! Knowing that Shi Yuan was not persuaded so easily, Baihua sighed helplessly, and said conclusively.
After hearing Baihua finish speaking, Brother Shi really flashed a trace of hesitation. Baihua thought that he had listened to his words, but Brother Shi's hesitation was only because he had figured out something.
For a long time, he didn't understand why the Qinglian Sect chose to do it at the Jiangnan Poetry Society. Until then, he also felt that this was just the other party's suspicious plan. It wasn't until Bai Hua said this now that he reacted, it turned out to be ...... When choosing the Jiangnan Poetry Club, there is also such a layer of effect.
Whether it was before Daqing or in Daqing, where Confucianism was vigorous, scholars have always been extremely important. In the name of the Jiangnan Poetry Society, all the scholars of Nanqing and Beiqing were gathered and encircled in this Jinling City to become their "hostages......
In this way, even if the tens of thousands of refugees in Yangzhou can't stop the reinforcements, it will be difficult for them to rush to Jinling. With so many scholars, if you die because of the siege, then your infamy through the ages will not be washed away even if you jump into the Yangtze River!
This scheming strategy, if it weren't for his own sideways, I'm afraid that the world might really change.
"Infamy through the ages? It's always going to have to be carried by someone! What's more, it doesn't necessarily mean that I have to bear this eternal infamy, right? Baihua waited for a long time, but she didn't expect Brother Shi to say such a sentence.
"You...... How can you be so stubborn? Baihua was a little speechless.
"If you don't work, you can't be stubborn! If I don't do it, do you have any other way, Hundred Flowers Girl? ”
"It's not that I won't let you do it, but I just have to think long-term and choose the opportunity to act."
"Think long-term? Are you waiting for the reinforcements you invited to arrive? At that time, I don't have to bear this eternal infamy? Brother Shi's tone was a little playful.
Shi Yuan said that he was thinking, but Baihua was not embarrassed: "That's right, I do think so, but don't forget, if you lose, my Bishui Zhai will follow you for a long time!" ”
Brother Shi heard it, and originally wanted to say "what does it have to do with me", but after thinking about it, the other party came to save himself in a hurry. I've already been slapped before, and if I say that again, I'm a little suspicious of being beaten.
"Failure? Rest assured! Even if it's for Qinglu and Lao Wang, I won't lose! ”
"Good! Then you can hear it! ”
"Simple! Just kill Mo Lingtian and catch Luo Haotian! "What Brother Shi said seemed to be an extremely ordinary thing.
Baihua was a little speechless, how could she not know that this was the easiest solution, but it was so easy?
"Don't forget the golden-headed snake I killed!"
Seeing Baihua's face full of disbelief, Brother Shi opened his mouth to remind him. Then he put away the rabbit gun in his hand and turned to look in the direction of the bamboo courtyard.
I talked with Baihua here for a long time, but Shen Wei, who went to the bamboo courtyard before, had already returned. It's just that when Shi Yuan turned his head to look, in addition to Shen Wei, there was Lin Yingyue!
At this time, the courtyard was full of corpses, and although the night was dark, it was still a little shocking. If Lin Yingyue sees it, this will not be good!
Taking advantage of the lights in the courtyard, he saw Lin Yingyue walking towards him, but Brother Shi didn't say anything more to Baihuaduo and hurriedly walked over......
"Yue'er, why are you here? It's so late, go back and rest! ”
After approaching, looking at Shen Wei's embarrassed expression, Brother Shi also knew that it must be Lin Yingyue who was going to follow, and she couldn't dissuade her. deliberately blocked in front of Lin Yingyue, and then asked.
The tears on Lin Yingyue's face hadn't dried yet, although they were blocked by Shi Yuan, she still saw some scenes in the courtyard when she stood here.
"My Lin Mansion has suffered this calamity, how can I be alone? Grandpa he ...... Is he alright? He asked in a faint tone.
