Chapter 19: Bad luck
"Mom, Geng Jimao is too deceitful!"
Luoding City, in the Yamen of Luoding Zhizhou in the original Ming Dynasty, after reading the letter sent by his eldest brother Kong Guozhi from Guangzhou, Kong Guoliang, the general manager of the green camp, was immediately angry, and he was so angry that he smashed the tea bowl in his hand on the spot, and the stool was also kicked over.
Shao Jiugong, the general manager sitting opposite, was so frightened that he hurriedly stepped forward and persuaded: "Thousand total anger, thousand total anger!" ”
"Anger? Can Lao Tzu's anger be breathed? ”
Shao Jiugong didn't persuade it, but as soon as he persuaded Kong Guoliang, he was even more angry, and he opened his mouth and scolded: "Dog, why is his Geng Jimao's soldiers eating and drinking spicy food in Guangzhou City, and Lao Tzu wants to gnaw cabbage in this ghost place!" On the same day, Chaozhou was broken, he Geng Jimao and the Manchurians did not let us enter the city, and the brothers watched them rob in the city, and threw thousands of taels of silver to our Jiangxi soldiers, and before they returned to Guangzhou, they sent us to this ghost place, and this fucking deception is not such a deception! ”
"This thing is something that King Jingnan did wrong, but don't be angry, the official level crushes people to death, not to mention that they are vassal kings."
Shao Jiugong also felt guilty in his heart, but he couldn't help that Geng Jimao was the king of Jingnan sealed by the imperial court, and his arms couldn't twist his thighs, so they just had 10,000 more complaints, could it be possible to still fight a lawsuit with the feudal king of the imperial court? This anger can only be swallowed in the stomach, and there is nowhere to spill it!
"Geng Jimao, isn't that kid his father died early to become the prince? If it weren't for my two brothers, would he have been able to conquer Chaozhou? There is no such way to demolish the bridge across the river! You haven't seen him like that in Chaozhou, following General Hahamu like a dog, where is there a prince look, if it weren't for our Jiangxi soldiers desperately rushing ahead, the two or three thousand soldiers and horses under him would not even be enough to stuff Hao Shangjiu's teeth! ”
Thinking of the battle of Chaozhou, Geng Jimao relied on the support of Hahamu, used the Jiangxi soldiers and Guangdong soldiers as cannon fodder, and after breaking the city, he led his own feudal soldiers and Hahamu's Manchurian soldiers to directly slaughter a Chaozhou city, killing more than 100,000 Chaozhou people alive, Kong Guoliang hated it so much. However, it was not Geng Jimao and Hahamu who hated the slaughter of the city, but hated that they had no part in it, so they could only watch Geng and Ha transport the wealth accumulated by Hao Shangjiu for many years and the property of the people of Chaozhou back to Guangzhou in hundreds of carts. When others eat meat, he can't even gnaw a bone, can he not hate!
Shao Jiugong was also depressed in the Battle of Chaozhou, but he didn't dare to scold the vassal king like Kong Guoliang, so he could only change the conversation and ask, "What did the chief soldier say?" ”
"Don't mention my eldest brother, every time I go back to the letter, I always tell me to endure, endure, endure, endure, when is this fucking endurance!" Kong Guoliang slapped the letter on the table casually, his cheeks bulging with anger.
"The chief soldier is also thinking about President Qian and the brothers, our Jiangxi soldiers are guest soldiers, if we really offend the king of Jingnan, the brothers will have to drink the northwest wind." Shao Jiugong's head is not confused, and he doesn't need to guess to know why Kong Guozhi persuaded his brother to endure this breath, isn't there no way, if there is really a way, can he bear it?
Kong Guoliang didn't fork the road: "Can a living person still suffocate urine to death?" There is no place to stay here, there is a place to stay here. According to me, the eldest brother led us back to Jiangxi directly, what is the matter of being angry in Guangdong. The meritorious service is also his Manchurian and the two princes, our Jiangxi soldiers are a fart in their eyes, and they won't feel distressed when they die! ”
My man!
Kong Guoliang's words almost didn't make Shao Jiugong tremble, and said in his heart, if your Kong brothers really want to bring troops back to Jiangxi without an order from the imperial court, then they will become a thief, but I am afraid that before they leave Guangdong, they will call the soldiers of Pingnan and Jingnan to be destroyed, and they will have to be beheaded all over the house. It doesn't matter if your Kong family is all over the house, don't harm our subordinates.
Fortunately, Kong Guoliang is also angry, his two brothers brought 3,000 soldiers to Guangdong last year, and most of the losses in Chaozhou were lost in the first battle, and now in addition to the 200 people under Kong Guozhi in Guangzhou, he has more than 400 people. If the three thousand men and horses were really unscathed, Geng Jimao could send them so casually and send them three melons and two dates to Luoding?
Kong Guoliang scolded Geng Jimao a few more words, and then kept his head silent.
Shao Jiugong pondered: "Do you want to no longer hand over the envelope and ask for official documents?" ”
Hearing this, Kong Guoliang said angrily: "Hand over a fart, Geng Jimao really wants to agree to adjust our defense, my eldest brother won't even be able to enter his palace!" After speaking, he kicked the stool in front of him aside, picked up the horsewhip on the table and said, "Let's go, go out for a walk with me, stay in this broken yamen and get fucking sick." ”
"Hey, good!"
Shao Jiugong hurriedly rushed out of the house and ordered someone to prepare a horse for Kong Guoliang
Shao Jiugong accompanied Kong Guoliang out of the yamen but didn't know where to go, there was no scenery in front of him except for the dilapidated street, and the pedestrians on the street were even more pitiful. The dilapidated houses and deserted streets are full of dead air, which makes people feel more and more bored.
The Ming and Qing dynasties fought in Guangdong for seven or eight years, no county was not affected by the military disaster, the provincial capital of Guangzhou was slaughtered by the Qing army, the 100,000 people slaughtered in Chaozhou City and the provincial capital are simply insignificant, you must know that the Qing army entered the city of Guangzhou after killing people on sight, whether it was the old man or the baby or the woman, they were all slaughtered by the Qing army, killing more than 700,000 people in Guangzhou, making the huge city of Guangzhou empty, and its tragedy was not lower than that of Yangzhou in ten days.
The provincial capital is still like this, and the rest of the places can naturally be imagined, compared to Luoding is still good, at least the Qing army did not massacre the city, making Luoding City the only city in Luoding Prefecture that is still inhabited, which is probably related to the need for the Qing army to enslave the people, otherwise what they eat and drink, and where do they drive the people.
Kong Guoliang actually didn't have any purpose, he was just too stuffy in the Zhizhou Yamen, and his heart was blocked, so he wanted to come out for a walk, and it didn't matter where he went. After walking around the city and coming to the east gate, Kong Guoliang immediately looked there for a while, except for two Taoist priests and a few villagers who went into the city to sell firewood, no one came in and out, and immediately felt that it was not interesting, and secretly scolded this Luo Ding is really a bird who doesn't, is so poor that even the merchants refuse to come, so that he can't get any oil and water.
Seeing Master Qian coming, the Qing soldiers guarding the door hurriedly came over to salute, Kong Guoliang waved his hand impatiently, signaling them to go about their own business, and he was really not interested in the people who saw him appear and avoided them in the distance to whip them a few times.
Boredom, Kong Guoliang decided to go back, and after shouting at Shao Jiugong, he turned the horse's head and wanted to go back, but the horse's body just turned around, but he saw another bald monk wearing a broken monk's robe and walked in from the city gate.
"Phew, just past two Taoist priests, and a bald donkey came, it's really fucking bad luck, I have to go back to find that little lady to go to bad luck."
Thinking of the daughter of the Lin family's filial piety, Kong Guoliang suddenly became interested, and he was horny, so he rushed forward, startling the pedestrians in the distance to scream and dodge.
