Early Ming Dynasty: Turning Clouds and Rains into New Learning Saints

Chapter 148 No No No No

"Oops, the county official is injured, please save him!"

Hearing the shouting, many people stopped to check, and sure enough they saw Daotong lying on the ground.

Daotong was indeed a good county magistrate, so much so that when many people saw him, they turned around and tried to save their magistrate, risking the danger of the bandits coming over from the opposite side.

Unexpectedly, their county magistrate, classmate Daotong, jumped up from the ground, waved to them, and shouted eagerly: "Quick, everyone get aside, leave the official road, and disperse!"

Those people in Zhuang were all confused when they saw this scene. What do you mean?Isn't this okay, County Lord?

Seeing this, Dao Tong was very anxious.

He felt something was wrong just now, so he lay down on the ground and listened. He was sure that it was absolutely true, and a large-scale cavalry army was galloping towards them.

These Cantonese people didn't know much about the cavalry charge, but as Mongolians, it was definitely very clear.

It's not like the pikemen formed a formation. If they were just scattered like this, they would definitely be knocked to pieces.

"The court's reinforcements, the court's cavalry army has arrived, if you don't want to die, run away!" Dao Tong shouted loudly, leaping on his horse and taking the lead to hide under the official road.

Fortunately, his prestige was enough. Although the people who heard it didn't understand what it meant, or they were far away and couldn't hear clearly, they all fled to both sides of the official road when they saw what the county magistrate did.

Just at this moment, at the turning point at the foot of the official road, a cavalry force appeared rushing towards them.

The iron hooves rumbled, and the dust they brought up almost covered the sky and the sun, and it was unknown how many cavalry troops there were.

Red mandarin duck jerseys, hunting flags, and tall horses marched hand in hand, galloping towards them with a "rumbling" sound.

Anyone who sees it will feel insignificant.It feels like in front of this cavalry, no matter who it is, will be torn to pieces.

Even Daotong, who had witnessed the war in the north, was dumbfounded.

It's not that he was stunned because he saw an elite force.

But the cavalry army is definitely a rare commodity for Guangdong.With such a large-scale cavalry dispatch, people who didn't know it thought there was a large-scale rebellion, at least 10,000+.

Moreover, the cavalry in front of him is emerging from the foot of the mountain in a steady stream. Daotong is sure that this cavalry can only be the cavalry under the command of Marquis Yongjia. In other places, there are no more than a hundred cavalry at most, and it is not as good as the cavalry in front of him. This cavalry army is equally elite.

When the cavalry saw a chaotic crowd in front of them, they all drew out their spears and sabers, like beasts baring their fangs, as if they were about to kill.

When Dao Tong saw it, he was startled. He immediately rode a horse to meet him from the field on the side of the official road. At the same time, relying on his Mongolian talent, he stood on the horse and waved.

I have to say, this is eye-catching enough.

Especially in Guangdong, being able to stand on the back of a running horse is not unique, but it is probably close to it.

The official uniform he was wearing was also very eye-catching.Able to convey a signal accurately: This is a team led by a Ming County magistrate.

own people!
The cavalry vanguard stopped in time and continued to run along the official road without spreading out.

However, those bandit teams would not be so lucky without Dao Tong's reminder.They crowded on the official road, holding their flags, and were chasing in a scattered group. When they saw the cavalry appearing, they were immediately frightened.

"What's going on? Where am I? What am I doing..."

This cavalry had obviously received military orders. Seeing these bandits, they unsheathed their swords and guns again and exposed their fangs.

It just so happened that these bandits had seen this kind of formation, and when they saw the iron hooves of the cavalry charging, they were frightened and didn't know how to deal with it. They just turned around and ran away.The few smart people quickly fled to both sides of the official road.

It was like a flood bursting through the embankment, and like the bandits' team being like paper. In short, the cavalry's charging momentum was unstoppable, and it pierced through the bandits' team in one go, and did not stop, continuing to rumble. The land goes away.

Minzhuang of Panyu County looked at this scene. Everyone was dumbfounded and dumbfounded. Many people even trembled at the sight.

If it hadn't been for the county magistrate just now, he would have been beaten to pieces by this cavalry just like the bandit, right?

Waves of cavalry rumbled past.

Suddenly, a cavalry army stopped on the official road closest to Daotong, neatly.

The leader was wearing a general's armor, with the word "zhu" embroidered on a flag behind him.

The visor was lifted up, revealing Zhu Liangzu's face. He shouted to Daotong with a little ridicule: "The magistrate of Panyu County in the Ming Dynasty is juggling here. Is there nothing to do?"

The two of them are enemies and should not be dealt with.

However, one is just a county magistrate, and the other is a hereditary marquis of the Ming Dynasty.

When Dao Tong heard this, even though he didn't want to, he still jumped off his horse, bowed his head and bowed to salute, but his voice in reply was firm and powerful, without the slightest fear: "The official has received the letter from the prince consort asking for help, and is leading the troops to Rescue!"

"It's just you?" Zhu Liangzu laughed again, and then said, "Since I'm here to help, I don't need you anymore. How can you go back there!"

After finishing speaking, he put on his helmet again and rode away.

Daotong raised his head and looked at the retreating Marquis Yongjia, feeling a little surprised.

He did not expect that it would be Marquis Yongjia who personally led the troops to Xiangshan County.Moreover, he also brought all the cavalry under his command.

So how worthy and capable is the history of Xiangshan County, that Marquis Yongjia paid so much attention to it?
This way of beating is basically like an adult beating a child. No, it's an adult beating a baby, or a newborn, isn't it?

Send out a hundred elite iron cavalry and you can go sideways.However, Marquis Yongjia not only led the troops himself, but also brought all three thousand cavalry under his command?

!!!

Generally speaking, it is indeed a big deal out of a molehill.Even if the consort and the princess were really in danger, there was no need to send three thousand cavalry troops.Because they are just dealing with a mere Dianshi, there is no difference between one hundred cavalry and three thousand cavalry.

Moreover, the prince-in-law's letter for reinforcements was sent to the Guangdong Dusi, to Qi Xiang, asking him to borrow troops to rush for reinforcements.Originally, there was nothing wrong with Marquis Yongjia, and his son didn't even need to take action.

As a result, Marquis Yongjia came here in person!

Is it Yongjia Hou Xian's panic?On this hot day in Guangdong, you are still sweating?

Absolutely not!

Zhu Liangzu was just showing how much he valued the prince-in-law and the princess. He made such a big fanfare and went to such great lengths to save the prince-son-in-law and the princess. No matter what, the prince-son-in-law would miss him.

What the prime minister told us didn't go well at first. Now, is there a breakthrough?
Although it is true that he is not comfortable hiding in a military camp and being served by a woman, he has a background of leading soldiers in wars and has led soldiers on many expeditions in bad weather. There is nothing unaccustomed to this kind of thing.

Iron hoof continued to move south, and Zhu Liangzu was still very happy.

The reinforcements are all cavalry, so the speed will be much faster.The best time is when the prince consort and the princess are in danger, and he leads the cavalry like a magic weapon descending from the sky, saving the prince consort and the princess in one fell swoop. This not only fulfills the prime minister's instructions, but also allows him to live with the prince consort. friendship.

This abacus has finally come to fruition!

Zhu Liangzu looked up at the sun, and was quite satisfied with the speed.It is estimated that it will be here soon.

Before setting off, he looked at the map. According to what the reporting sergeant had pointed out, the consort and the princess were probably in a village ahead.

I just hope that Dianshi is a really capable person and has captured the consort and the princess, but he knows the seriousness and does not dare to kill the consort and the princess.

While he was thinking, he suddenly felt that the sound of horse hooves seemed to have become quieter, so he immediately looked up.But they saw that the cavalry vanguard in front had stopped at the entrance of a village. It was obvious that they had arrived.

This time, he became energetic.

I wonder what happened to the consort and the princess?

Has that classic history come yet?Have you threatened the consort and the princess?It's time for you to show up, you can't let yourself down, right?
"Report!" A cavalryman galloped over and stopped suddenly to report, "The prince consort and the princess are in the village, please come over!"

When Zhu Liangzu heard this, he felt depressed.It sounds like the prince consort and the princess are fine?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but hate that Dianshi. What did he do for food?At least get something done!
At this time, he really wanted to help Na Dianshi!
But obviously, there is no point in thinking about it anymore.

Zhu Liangzu no longer worried about it, let go of these thoughts, and immediately drove his horse forward to the village.

After arriving at the entrance of the village, he suddenly saw a large number of people tied up under a big tree.At a glance, there were probably about a hundred of them.Some of them were still wearing the clothes of county officials.

Most of the people were tied up listlessly, and no injuries could be seen on their bodies. Only five or six people could see that their wounds were bandaged.In addition, several bodies were seen.

Among them was a big fat man, who was tied up alone and was staring dumbfoundedly at the cavalry that kept arriving and filling the road.

This feature is very obvious. After all, there are not many fat people like this in Guangdong.And Zhu Liangzu heard that the man in the history of Xiangshan County who might threaten the consort and the princess was a big fat man.

It seems that this big fat man is here, but he is so incompetent that he was actually taken care of by the prince-in-law himself?

What a waste!
With this thought in his mind, he continued riding forward.

Entering the village, Qi Xiang, who was the first to arrive with the vanguard, and the guards around the consort were already waiting here, welcoming him into the village and heading towards the center of the village.

What kind of person is Zhu Liangzu? With just a glance, he found that there was no sign of fighting in this village.It is estimated that the useless Dianshi was subdued without posing any threat to the village.

It really stinks!
Zhu Liangzu frowned a few times, but he didn't mind too much.He was just a little curious. Not to mention the prince-in-law, the princess was a wealthy woman. How could she survive in such a smelly village?
Looking at the curious heads in the thatched house, Zhu Liangzu didn't bother to pay attention, and soon reached the middle of the village and saw the consort and the princess.

The status of a captain consort is comparable to that of a duke, but in fact, if you really want to say it, his status is still a little bit worse than that of a top marquis.

But the princess is also here. No matter how awesome the outsider is, she is the biological daughter of the emperor.

Zhu Liangzu was a good man. When he saw the princess and the consort standing up, he didn't support him. He immediately got off his horse, laughed and walked over and said: "Consort, princess, we meet again!"

Zhang Yifan really didn't expect that Marquis Yongjia would come in person and lead a cavalry army with such great fanfare. Even though he had solved the crisis, he was still grateful in his heart. He immediately smiled and said to Marquis Yongjia: "Marquis Yongjia Come to help, I will definitely emphasize one or two points in the report to my father, thank you for your hard work!"

Zhu Liangzu originally smiled and said, no matter what, the prince-in-law definitely owed him a favor.

As a result, he didn't expect that the consort would be so grateful to him and would go out of his way to express his merits to him. Suddenly, he was a little dumbfounded.

Zhu Liangzu came to his senses and said quickly: "Husband-in-law, I didn't do anything when I came here, and I didn't have any merit, so there is no need to report to the emperor!"

"No, no, no!" After hearing this, Zhang Yifan immediately shook his head and said seriously, "Although I solved this problem myself, you personally led the troops to come to the rescue. I still need to accept this kindness, and I will definitely show my credit to you! "

"No, no, no!" After hearing this, Zhu Liangzu became anxious and said quickly, "I really have no merit. Don't show me credit. Don't show me credit!"

"You really don't want to show off your merits?" Zhang Yifan was a little surprised after hearing this, and immediately confirmed.

When Zhu Liangzu heard this, he nodded quickly and replied: "No!"

"Let's show off our merits!" Zhang Yifan was moved in his heart and continued, "Otherwise, I will feel very sorry!"

"No, no, no!" Zhu Liangzu didn't know whether it was because the weather was too hot or something, but there was obviously a little more sweat on his forehead, "Don't show off, it's really nothing!"

"No!" After hearing this, Zhang Yifan became more resolute and said to him, "It's such a hot day, so I bother you to come here. I'm sorry if I don't express my gratitude!"

When Zhu Liangzu heard this, he suddenly became anxious, a bit like an ant on a hot pot.

In the end, he had no choice but to smile and said to Zhang Yifan a little embarrassedly: "Well... this, Prince Consort, it's like this. I came with three thousand cavalry troops. Your Majesty... you may blame him."

"Why?" After hearing this, Zhang Yifan understood what was going on, but he still pretended to be stupid and asked directly pretending to be curious.

Zhu Liangzu was helpless. Seeing the consort like this, if he didn't explain clearly, he would definitely show his merit for him.So, he had no choice but to explain: "It costs a lot to send out three thousand cavalry troops. Just to deal with a Dianshi, it will cost military resources, and your Majesty will not be happy."

When Zhang Yifan heard this, he thought to himself, as expected, he had guessed it.

This Marquis of Yongjia came to reinforce with such fanfare just to make himself grateful. However, for the founding emperor who had a background of leading troops in wars, the price of using a three thousand cavalry army was naturally clear.It's just a case of fighting against a Dianshi. It only shows that this general is unqualified!

Even if Zhu Yuanzhang did not punish him, he would still leave such an impression.For Zhu Liangzu, he definitely didn't want it.

Understanding this, Zhang Yifan said regretfully: "I still feel sorry for you if I don't show you my merit!"

"No, no, no!" When Zhu Liangzu heard this, he quickly replied, "It's okay, it's okay, it's really okay! If your consort has anything to do next, just ask, your majesty won't have to worry about these little things!"

At this time, he really regretted having mobilized so many troops.In order for the consort not to report it, I have to owe him a favor!
Why bother?
After hearing this, Zhang Yifan said with a little regret: "In this case, we have to forget it. If Marquis Yongjia is free, he can do a little favor and stay in Xiangshan County for two days, and borrow some troops to clean up the remnants of Dianshi. , I will straighten out the county government affairs?"

"No problem!" When Zhu Liangzu heard this, he actually didn't want to, but on the surface, he agreed immediately.

It seems that I have to stay in Xiangshan County for a few days.

On Zhang Yifan's side, someone called Zhang San again. After giving him some instructions, he set off back to the county government office.

When Zhu Liangzu accompanied the consort and the princess to the village entrance again, he looked at the big fat man who was tied up. He felt angry and asked Zhang Yifan, "I wonder how the consort dealt with these people?"

If the big fat man had been more aggressive and threatened the prince consort and the princess, or even made a bigger fuss, he would not be too conspicuous if he brought so many cavalry troops.

However, it would be too obvious that he was making a fuss out of a molehill if the consort directly took care of it without him having to do anything.

In short, this big fat man is too incompetent!
Yongjiahou's idea is actually a bit unfair to Ma Ruhai.

No matter what, Ma Ruhai is also a person, otherwise he would not be able to become the top tyrant in Xiangshan County, the kind that can cover the sky with one hand.

If we really want to blame him, we can only blame Ma Ruhai for having too small a vision and not seeing much of the world.

In this one-third of an acre of land in Xiangshan County, he is indeed a powerful figure.However, it doesn't stop there.

The men he has snagged, including the Five Kings with the Golden Sword, the Tyrant with the Iron Sand Palm, and other men of the world, are absolutely fine if they fight alone and oppress the people.

However, when they faced soldiers fighting in real battlefields, the gap suddenly emerged.

At that time, when Ma Ruhai led more than 90 of his men to attack the village, he faced Zhu Wu who led five soldiers and guards to charge on horseback.

Zhu Wu and his five companions were all the absolute elites of the Ming Dynasty's army. They were either the vassal's personal guards or the emperor's personal guards. When they charged on horseback, their momentum was unmatched by these gangsters.

Just facing their charge, there is a kind of fearless aura, the kind that rushes up and perishes with you.Ma Ruhai's men became frightened as soon as they met.

When Zhu Wu and others rode close, they picked up their bows and arrows, and shot a few people rushing in front to death. The others were frightened and did not say anything about running away. They just tried to avoid the horses' heads that rushed over. No one could do that. Have the courage to face the charge of Zhu Wu and others.

In the end, in just one round, Zhu Wu captured the thief first and directly captured the exposed fat man Ma Ruhai.

Under the threat of You Qi, Ma Ruhai was arrested again. After a lot of coercion and inducement, these gangsters all chose to surrender.

　Ask for support!
