Chapter 404: Re-entry into Chengmai
Things in Changhua are on the right track according to the original plan. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć On Lingao's side, Huang Mengjia finally waited for the Qionghai five-year pistol produced by the arsenal overtime, and led the special combat team to Chengmai.
Chengmai's vigilance was no better than that of other states and counties, and even a team of more than 100 people like the special combat team did not arouse the vigilance of the soldiers defending the city.
Everyone in the special combat team is strong and sturdy, and wearing the clothes of the common people can't hide the fierce temperament on their bodies, Huang Mengjia was worried about encountering trouble at the city gate, but the soldiers just charged them a few more money and let them into the city.
After they all entered the city, a young soldier looked back at them curiously and asked the veteran next to him: "This group of people seems to be a little strange, the merchants are not like the merchants, but they enter the city in groups......
The veteran spat out the stalk of grass in his mouth and said lazily: "What if there are weird, what if there is no weirdness?" Even if they are scheming mountain bandits, if they break through the checkpoint and enter the city, can we stop it? ā
The young soldier replied honestly: "I can't stop it, maybe I will take my own life." ā
"That's it, a few of us, just stand at the door and make a show to scare and scare the people, don't think about those useless ones. Even if the sky falls, it's a high top, and it can't hit us......" Halfway through his words, the veteran's eyes lit up and stared at a merchant carrying a burden, and walked up with a shout, "Stop, what's in the burden?" According to his experience, this kind of person is a bit of oil and water to squeeze and will not be risky, and is the most suitable target for extortion.
The veteran didn't expect that what he said casually just now was actually the truth.
When the special combat team arrived at the gate of the county office, it was noon, and the whole street was quiet except for two officials who were drowsy at the door.
Huang Mengjia looked at the gate of the yamen and felt a little emotion in his heart. Three years ago, because of a grudge with his predecessor Lin Sanfeng, the county magistrate, he wanted to capture Chengmai County for revenge, and finally accumulated some family funds, but when he put it into action, he hit a wall and returned from the siege. In the end, he surrendered to Xia Nanhou, and easily took revenge, not only killing Lin Sanfeng with his own hands, but also looting in the county, almost emptying half of Chengmai County.
According to Xia Nan's plan, the purpose of this revisit was to capture the county government, close the city gates, loot large households, create an atmosphere of panic, and achieve the goal of shocking the surrounding counties and the prefect's yamen. In other words, in the name of mountain bandits, they caused trouble in the county, so that everyone could see the fate of offending the Qiongzhou battalion, and on the surface, people couldn't catch it.
The inner courtyard of the county government.
Liu Zezhong rested in the room, and after drinking a few glasses of wine, he couldn't help but feel sleepy and fell asleep on the chair. After falling asleep, he had a dream: the Qiongzhou battalion rebelled, and the first target was Chengmai County, and the fragile city defense could not resist the opponent's offensive at all, and the city fell in a drum. The leading general went directly to the county office, put the knife on his neck, and asked with a cruel smile: "When the case was first taken, did you ever think about today?" ā
Since seeing the amazing strength of the Qiongzhou battalion with his own eyes, Liu Zezhong regretted being so impulsive at the time, but he couldn't pull his face to mend the relationship afterwards, and he has been in a panic mood since returning to Chengmai. Chengmai is too close to Lingao, there is really any wind and grass, and the court is beyond the reach of the whip.
Perhaps the dream was too real, and he woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he found that there was really a knife in front of him.
Rubbing his eyes vigorously and opening them again, yes, it was really a steel knife, close to his neck, his skin could feel the coldness of the blade, and there was a group of fierce men standing in front of him, blocking the room with water.
He trembled and asked, "Good man, what are you doing, can you put down the knife and talk slowly?" ā
The man holding the knife was an unusually burly man, who asked with a sneer: "Liu Daxian Ling, when the case was auctioned in Lingao, did you ever think that there would be today?" ā
This sentence is too similar to the words in the dream just now, Liu Zezhong was in a trance, and he couldn't tell whether this was a dream or reality. He secretly pinched his thigh, shivering in pain, yes, it wasn't a dream.
The revenge actually came so quickly, this summer Nan looked like Svenwen, but he didn't expect such a revenge, and he couldn't tolerate the overnight revenge. If it weren't for the knife on his neck, Liu Zezhong would have knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, he said anxiously: "Good man is impulsive, if you have something to say." I offended your general, but it was also an unintentional mistake. You help, bring a message to General Xia Shen, just say that I, Liu Zezhong, am willing to admit my mistakes and make amends, and let him surround my life. As long as you're willing to help spread the word, I'll give you the silver, okay? ā
This strong man was Huang Mengjia, and he sneered and said, "Oh? How much money will I be given to pass the word? ā
Seeing that the other party was relieved, Liu Zezhong was overjoyed, gently blocked the steel knife in front of him, and said with a smile: "The hero comes with me." ā
He took Huang Mengjia to the inner room, took out a package, and handed it to Huang Mengjia in pain, "Good man, all of them are here, and they are all for you." ā
Huang Mengjia took the package and weighed it, and it was estimated that it was only about three hundred taels of silver. He casually handed it to the team members behind him, "Take it and share it with the brothers." ā
Liu Zezhong complimented: "A good man is sympathetic to his subordinates and benevolent enough." ā
Huang Mengjia smiled, he really didn't care about this bit of silver. Mo said that his annual military salary is so much, and he can get a few thousand taels of dividends from Tiannan Commercial Bank, so he will not be tempted by this small profit, if it reaches the general's ears, it will be worth the loss. If you don't give it too much to the special combat team, you won't have this concern, and even if the general knows about it, he will praise him for showing compassion to his subordinates.
"Well, you have also taken out the silver, and you have said everything that needs to be said. Come, tie him up. ā
Liu Zezhong was shocked: "Hero, why is this?" But too little silver? I spent a lot of money to make up for this shortage, and I only had so much cash around me, if it was too little, I could find a way to find a way for the big families in the city. ā
"Hehe, it has nothing to do with silver. My family wants to stand up and kill chickens to show monkeys, so I have to wronged you, a rising bird. ā
The two special combat team members stepped forward, ignored Liu Zezhong's shouting, tied him up tightly, and then stuffed a rag to gag his mouth.
"Leave a few men to watch him, and the rest will follow me to seal the gates."
Simon.
The old soldier and the young soldier were knocking on the hawker's bamboo pole, but he heard a dense sound of footsteps, and turned to see that the one hundred and eighty sturdy men who had entered the city not long ago were running towards him, holding a swarthy iron rod in his hand.
The young soldier was amazed and said to the veteran, "Isn't this the same group that entered the city just now?" ā
The veteran has much more experience than him, and hurriedly pulled him to hide in the corner, "The person who came is not good, it looks like something is going to happen, and thirty-six strategies to hide are the best plan." (To be continued.) )
