On October 28 of the first year of Chongzhen, Yue Shenghe, the governor of Yansui, summoned Hong Chengchou at the governor's yamen, both of them had serious expressions, and it seemed that the matter was not small.

Yue Shenghe took the document and said to Hong Chengchou: "Now Shaanxi is already in chaos, the people are in turmoil, and the emperor is furious, and now the governor of Shaanxi, Hu Yanyan, has been dismissed and sent to prison, and has issued a decree to the official to fully assist the governor of the three sides, Lord Yang, to exterminate the bandits, and Lord Yang has already sent a document to let the official dispatch troops to exterminate the rebel king Jiayin of Fugu. ”

Hong Chengchou listened, and couldn't help but think secretly, for a while, Hong Chengchou said: "The trilateral governor Lord Yang advocates the strategy of "suppressing and appeasing both, focusing on fussing", so, it is indeed a good move to mobilize troops to exterminate the rebel king Jiayin of Fugu, and now this rebel is like a banner of thieves everywhere, as long as he is exterminated, the rebels everywhere will inevitably fear the power of the imperial court, so it will be much easier to appease them again. ”

Speaking of this, Hong Chengchou just changed his words, and said: "But what's the use of appeasing them, when these traitors kill people with the hoe in their hands, they are no longer a peasant, even if they are temporarily intimidated by the power of the court and accept the appeasement, but once the court can't give them proper placement, their requirements can't be met, they will immediately rebel, and then it will be another turmoil, so isn't it in vain, waste money and food!" ”

Yue Shenghe also thought about it carefully after hearing this, and then couldn't help sighing, and said: "Yan Yan, the strategy to suppress bandits is approved by the emperor, and in any case, it is not something that our courtiers can discuss in vain. ”

After speaking, Yue Shenghe paused, and said again: "I want to send the garrison You Shijin and Hao Sanbao to exterminate the rebel king Jiayin in Fugu, these two are controlled by you, Yan Yan, you are both civil and military, and you are talented, as long as you exterminate the traitor, you will be reused by the court, and his future is limitless, and this official is very confident in you!" ”

Hong Chengchou bowed respectfully and said: "My lord is very loving, and the lower officials are inscribed with a sense of guilt, but if you want to exterminate the Fugu rebels, you still need one person!" ”

Yue Shenghe couldn't help asking, "Who?" As long as he is under the command of this official, no matter who he is, you can say anything about Yan Yan! ”

Hong Chengchou replied angrily: "He Renlong! ”

Yue Shenghe listened, couldn't help but be stunned, and then said with a smile: "Who did I take a fancy to Yan Yanyan, it turned out to be He Renlong, although he is also brave, but not long ago he was beaten by a group of chaotic people. ”

Hong Chengchou shook his head slightly, and said: "My lord doesn't know, if you want to exterminate the rebels in Fugu, you have to be He Renlong!" ”

Yue Shenghe smiled dumbly, this He Renlong was so valued by Hong Chengchou, which made him a little surprised, but he didn't bother to pay attention to it, just a He Renlong, he didn't pay attention to it, so with a wave of his hand, he transferred He Renlong to Hong Chengchou and let them set off together.

Out of the governor's yamen, Hong Chengchou immediately came to He Renlong's camp, and now He Renlong's body has already recovered, and he is training soldiers and horses in the military camp every day, in order to take revenge!

Hearing that Hong Chengchou was coming, He Renlong didn't dare to slack off, and went to greet him in person and invited Hong Chengchou to the big tent.

After a salute, He Renlong couldn't help asking: "I don't know what the adults are here for, if there is anything, you can send someone to call the general, why bother the adults to come in person." ”

Hong Chengchou waved his hand slightly and said: "General He has been doing well recently, looking at the general's complexion, I think he has already recovered, it is really gratifying!" ”

He Renlong clenched his fists and said: "Thanks to the great help of the adults during this period of time, the last will be no worries, rest assured that it will be raised, the kindness of the adults, the last will not dare to forget, in the future, the adults will be sent, and the last will go to the soup and the fire, and they will not give up." ”

Hong Chengchou smiled slightly, looked at He Renlong, and was extremely satisfied, and then his face turned straight and said, "General, don't hide it, your chance to take revenge has come!" ”

When He Renlong heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked, and said hurriedly: "Please tell me in detail!" ”

Hong Chengchou stood up, walked to the big tent, lifted the curtain, and saw that the soldiers outside were practicing and killing, majestic, and his heart was also comforted.

Then he turned around and said to He Renlong: "Now that Shaanxi is in turmoil, the governor of the three sides has asked the governor to send troops to exterminate the Fugu rebels, and the lord has handed over this matter to the official, and the official intends to lead you, as well as You Shijin and Hao Sanbao, take you to exterminate the bandits, and when the Fugu rebels are exterminated, the official will go with you to Mizhi, and your wish will be fulfilled." ”

When He Renlong heard this, his blood immediately boiled, this dispatch is amazing, plus You Shijin and Hao Sanbao, that is an army of nearly 2,000, and it is led by Hong Chengchou, the official who knows the soldiers, and the extermination of the rebel thief is not yet captured!

When the time comes, as long as the dog thief is still there, and the army carries the power of victory, it will definitely be like the autumn wind sweeping the leaves for the dog thief, and the dog thief will definitely be killed!

Thinking of this, He Renlong immediately knelt down on one knee, clenched his fists heavily and said: "Thank you, my lord, my lord treats me so kindly, and I will not be able to repay you, but I can only sell the meat of this body to my lord!" ”

Hong Chengchou hurriedly helped He Renlong up, patted him on the shoulder, and said: "What is the general doing, you and I are colleagues, we should take care of each other, where do you need to say such heavy words, don't do this in the future!" ”

He Renlong nodded gratefully, and asked impatiently, "I don't know when the adults will leave?" ”

Hong Chengchou said: "Three days later, when the grain and grass are ready, you can send troops to quell the rebellion, this official will put the words here today, as long as the bandit is still in the rice fat, this official will send his head to the general, so that the general can get what he wants!" ”

He Renlong was moved by his red eyes, such a Shangguan, it is really worth repaying with his life,

He Renlong clenched his fists heavily and said, "Thank you, sir!" ”

After Hong Chengchou left, He Renlong immediately called He Dao and their hundreds of households, and said to them: "You go back now to prepare, three days later, this general will accompany Lord Hong to send troops to suppress bandits, and then it will be the time when we will be ashamed!" ”

Speaking of this, He Renlong's murderous aura poured out all over his body, and the entire big tent became a piece of slaughter, He Dao and they were all shocked, everyone did not dare to slack off, and they all clenched their fists to receive their orders, and said in unison: "Obey the general's orders!" ”
