Great Qing Dynasty talker

Chapter 167 Hailancha, what exactly did you do to Yu Bashi? ?

Ergou ran to the position and took out his telescope to observe. Sure enough, there were alive Qing soldiers crawling on the ground, dragging long blood stains.

Gee, how sad.

Forget it if you have missing arms or legs, you can't save them.

He stared at the two who were slightly injured, and they looked like they were still intact.

"You go and carry the person back."

"What if he resists and screams?"

"Then give him a knife and reward you with roast leg of lamb when he comes back. You must have never eaten it, right?"

After a while, the three cooks came back.

One of them was still bleeding from the tip of his knife. It was obvious that someone didn't know how to show off.

"Hero, don't kill me, I surrender."

Obviously, this was a green soldier who knew the current affairs. The uniform in front of Yue Xiong was stained red with blood.

Liu Wu asked in one breath:

"How many battalions are here? How many people? Who commands them? Are there artillery? How many cavalry are there?"

"Cooperate well and I will treat your injuries and give you meat to eat."

……

Liu Wu, Li Dahu, Li Ergou, and Wang Liu found a room.

"Seventy percent of the Jiangnan Green Camp's troops have arrived, just as the lord expected, and everything is exactly right."

"Yes, hold on tight and let Jiangnan Green Camp bleed dry."

Ergou suddenly trembled and his voice trembled:
"The officers and soldiers have no cannons, so they are not afraid of any attack. But what will we do when the Susong Town Navy warship arrives?"

"The warships can't hit us by firing cannons on the river, but they can unload the cannons and drag them to land to bombard us."

This reminder made everyone's hearts skip a beat.

broken!

He missed a step. Fukangan is not a fool and will definitely do this.

Ergou said solemnly:
"According to the information given by the prisoners, all the main battleships in Susong Town are here. How come there are only one or two hundred artillery pieces?"

"Uncle Liu, even if a hundred cannons were pulled ashore to blast us, wouldn't those cooks outside the house blow up their nests?"

……

Silence, dead silence.

The four of them only listened to the noise of fortifications being fortified outside and busy eating.

All four hearts are sinking!

It may have been a mistake to scuttle the warship in advance.

If the warship was still there, Su Song's navy would not dare to unload all the cannons.

"At this point, I would like to ask, what other plans does the lord have?" Wang Liu finally couldn't help it anymore.

Liu Wu felt that there was really no need to keep it secret, so he told him:

"Hold on, exhaust the elite Jiangnan Green Camp, and then reinforcements will appear."

"when?"

"The Lord said, we just have to hold on, reinforcements will fall from the sky."

"Why does it sound so unreliable? Then after winning the battle, how will we arrange these more than 1000 brothers?"

Liu Wu smiled bitterly:
"Brother Six, how many of the more than 1000 brothers do you think will survive to win?"

Wang Liu was thunderous and closed his eyes.

Yes, most people will die here.

But he had no face to blame Liu Wu and these two little brothers.They have the same chance of dying in battle, and they are still gambling with their lives!

……

"It would be great if Wu Sibuy's horse team was here."

"Hehe, what a beautiful thought."

"Uncle Liu, why didn't you install more artillery on the ship when you came? If there were a few heavy cannons over 24 pounds, they could suppress the Qing artillery from a long distance."

"The cabin is fully equipped with gunpowder, lead bullets, and cannonballs. Otherwise, this defensive battle will not last for two days, and we will have to run out of ammunition and fight hand-to-hand with the officers and soldiers."

Wang Liu suddenly said: "Fortify the fort embankment!"

"what?"

"At the entrance of the town, build two sloped earth walls. When shelling, retreat behind the low walls."

"Can you stop a cannonball?"

"It's impossible to completely block it, but it can block part of it. I looked at the terrain and found that the officers and soldiers were shorter than us."

Wang Liu made a gesture, and Liu Wu understood it instantly.

"Brother Six, take people to build embankments."

"Do not worry."

As an excellent miner, mining is his strength.

When it comes to doing things, Wang Liu is still very reliable.

……

However, the matter in Yangzhou Prefecture seems less reliable.

Imperial envoy Qian Feng received an anonymous letter threatening him not to delve further into the shady story of the salt transportation between Huaihe River and Huaihe River, otherwise he would be asked to leave Yangzhou City.

The tone of the letter was very arrogant, including the sentence "The country belongs to the emperor, and life belongs to one's own family", which successfully inspired Qian Erluzi's fighting spirit.

He slammed the table: "Here comes someone."

Two guards in yellow mantles immediately entered the tent, cupping their hands and saying, "Sir, what are your orders?"

"Bring Yuba Shi here quickly. I am going to interrogate him."

"Whoo."

The two guards, although reluctant.

It's not easy to live in peace at this late night. Think of yourself as Qianlong.

But he still followed the order, ordered 50 green battalion soldiers, a prison car, and wandered to the Yanyun Division Yamen.

The street outside the Yanyun Division's Yamen has always been guarded by soldiers from the Yanqing Battalion.

After checking the imperial envoy's order, they moved away from the horse.

You Bashi, who looked embarrassed, was pushed into the prison car with his eyes closed.

In the imperial envoy's office, Hai Lancha entered the big tent holding several Jiangnan emergency military reports.

"Sir Qian, the latest military report from Jiangnan."

"Oh? But Mr. Fu captured the bandit leader?"

"Master Fu led 7000 elite troops to surround the entire main force of the bandits on the banks of the Huangpu River in Songjiang Prefecture, and is currently under siege."

Qian Feng was overjoyed and took action:

"God bless the Qing Dynasty! Master Fukang'an is a veteran of the country, and this battle will be won."

Hailancha also nodded, he also felt that Fukangan would win.

Although he was a little jealous of Fukang'an's "originality", he still recognized his military talents in his heart.

In terms of bravery, he is the best batulu in the Qing Dynasty.

But when it comes to commanding group operations, Fukang'an is better than him.

"Hai Dutong, don't leave yet. I'll accompany you to interrogate You Bashi later."

Seeing Hai Lancha's confusion, Qian Feng smiled and explained:
"I have just sent someone to pick up the prisoner. He will be there in a moment."

"How many people went?"

"I don't know this. I just ordered the two guards outside the tent."

……

The bear-like Hai Lancha quickly jumped out of the tent.

After a while, he returned again.

"Sir Qian, I am afraid of fraud, so I will lead a team of cavalry to respond."

"well."

Qian Feng was a little embarrassed, wondering if it could be so serious.

A gust of wind blew in, and the letters and official documents on the case fell to the ground one after another.

When he picked up the anonymous letter, he suddenly felt shocked. It was not good.

Counted!
"Quick, quick, go rescue Mr. Hai."

Hailancha led a group of guards and just ran a few miles when he heard the sound of fighting.

There was also the sound of musket shooting.

"Spread out to avoid being ambushed."

The cavalry all had bows and arrows in hand, slowed down their horses, and advanced cautiously.

In the alley, the sound of horse hooves was still very harsh.

And You Bashi, who was in the prison car, looked around in horror, his head buzzing.

A group of masked men chanted, "Kill the officers and soldiers, rescue Mr. You."

Who wants to rescue him?Why so rude?The technique is so crude?

A guard in a yellow mantle fell quietly next to the prison car.

He was hit in the throat by a lead bullet and fell from his horse.

His eyes were wide open, as if telling the world: I am not willing to give in, I would have had a very bright future.

Even a Lan Ling guard can become a state magistrate after a few years.

……

Seeing the Qing army's reinforcements arriving, the masked men whistled and ran into the houses on both sides.

Hailancha rode a black horse and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Yuba Shi in the prison car was safe and sound.

He hit his fingers holding the wooden railing hard with the scabbard.

"You're such a bad official, you're so anxious that you jump over the wall."

"Master Hai, Xianguan was framed. Xianguan doesn't know these assassins. This is a trap."

Looking at You Bashi who kept howling and crying bitterly, Hailancha, a man outside the customs, felt disgusted.

He suddenly turned his head and spat into You's mouth.

Suddenly, the world became quiet.

He smiled happily when he saw Yuba Shi retching and writhing in pain in the prison car.

At this moment, he seemed to have returned to when he was 5 years old.I met a bear in the mountain forest, struggling and roaring in a pit.

He picked up a pile of stones and slowly smashed them.

As soon as the bear howled, a stone was smashed into its mouth.

Finally, he cut open the bear's stomach and picked out six bloody stones.

Hailancha's childhood was such a bloody romance.

……

"Thank you, Du Tong, the assassins escaped too fast to catch up."

"Well, withdraw your troops."

Hailan took a look at the dark houses and gave up the plan of digging three feet into the ground.

A ragtag group of people, if they fight in the wild, they can be killed in two rounds.

However, let’s forget about this complicated street fighting.

The guards under his command try not to cause casualties.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to explain when I return to the capital.

Behind every guard is one or more prominent families.

If their nephew dies, they will hate themselves.

Who said that Hailancha is a wild man and doesn't understand the ways of the world? We just grew up wild and acted wildly, but our hearts are still delicate.

The imperial envoy went to the camp,

Qian Feng looked at You Bashi who was turning blue and twitching on the ground in confusion.

"What's up with him?"

The guards did not dare to answer and suppressed their laughter. It cannot be said that they were poisoned by Hai Dutong.

Hailancha's rough face turned slightly red, and he dragged You out with one hand and induced vomiting.

After a while, there was an earth-shattering sound of vomiting.

Qian Feng wanted to go out and have a look, but he still held back.

He thought of some rumors, such as cows and country heavy tanks.

Facts have proved that he is wise.

If you look at it, you may lose your appetite for tomorrow's large boiled dried shredded noodles, three-packed buns, and Biluochun tea.

……

You Bashi's face turned pale, and he was dragged in again, carrying a faint stench.

Qian Feng slapped the table:
"You Bashi, as an official of the imperial court, you don't want to repay the emperor's favor and just line your own pockets. You actually collude with the rebellious party? Are you worthy of the emperor's kindness?"

"Sir Qian, if I say that there are experts behind all of this, do you believe it?"

"Of course I don't believe it."

"Hehehe, you are just a fool, you only know one thing."

Seeing that the prisoner was still rude, two guards came up and slapped him.

The beating caused bleeding from the mouth and nose, and one of the teeth fell out.

You Bashi wiped away the blood foam with his sleeve and said with a sad smile:
"You idiot, I'll make a bet with you. Fukangan won't live long, and he might die before me."

Qian Feng waved his hand:
"Take this shameless man and escort him to the capital with heavy troops and hand him over to the Ministry of Punishment and the Three Laws Division for trial."

"By the way, I will send the money obtained from ransacking the house to the capital together with a register."

"Whoo."

The guards dragged away the bloody gourd-like You Bashi.

In the big tent, only Qian Feng and Hai Lancha were left.

"Do you believe it?"

"Do not believe."

The two of them quickly put this matter behind them and focused on big things!

The Yizheng Canal is still being dredged.

The new sluice has just been built, but the bigger challenge is dredging the countless volumes of sediment.

"If the water transportation is blocked, the capital will not be peaceful. Recruit another 2 people and send all the soldiers in Hebiao to dig the river. Then post a notice offering a reward to those who are proficient in river management. If they can dredge Yizheng within 10 days Canal, I recommend him to be an official in Nanhe Governor's Mansion."

"That's what Mr. Qian said."

……

In Suzhou Prefecture, Li Yu often went to the governor's office to inquire when water transportation would be restored.

Zhu Gui had no doubt about this at all, but felt it was normal.

In his understanding, Li Yu's contribution to raising grain will be complete only when water transportation has been restored and water ships have arrived in Tongzhou.

Otherwise, his achievements will be greatly reduced.

The actual county magistrate he promised may also fall through.

Reasonable and logical.

He worriedly told Li Yu about the current situation in Jiangbei, and told him not to worry too much.

Qian Feng is a capable official, not a censor who just talks.

When people are united, the canal is open.

If [-] people can't do it, then [-] people can carry the river.

The court did not care about casualties, as long as the canal was open.We can overcome any difficulties by giving full play to the human resources advantages of Daqing.

For a moment, Li Yu thought of a famous saying:

No matter how great the difficulty is divided by [-] million, it is nothing but a trivial matter.

However, you can also think about it the other way around,

No matter how weak the power is, multiplied by thirty million, it is a huge wave.

After leaving the Chief Envoy's Yamen, Li Yu went to the Magistrate's Yamen.

As usual, I brought an inconspicuous piece of jewelry to Mrs. Huang.

"It won't be an example next time. It won't be an example next time."

Faced with Huang Wenyun's repeated warnings and teachings, what else could I say?
Once you master the principles of local specialties, you can theoretically mix well with any dynasty.

After all, people are all about saying one thing and doing another.

Surprise, criticize, understand, become ~
……

After leaving the prefect's Yamen, the porter Ling Aliu followed quietly.

"busy?"

"Master Li, a thief was caught in the prison, and he said he was your old friend."

"Oh? Whose last name is who?"

"The little one didn't ask, thinking that this matter couldn't be made public, so I quietly brought the person out. You go and have a look. If it's real, take it away. If it's a fake, the little one will help take care of it."

Li Yu smiled. He didn't expect that the concierge was quite good at doing things.

It seems that the Wangbei Tower business he opened is good and he has made enough money.

Only then will he be determined to make peace for himself, not to mention that such trivial matters really need someone to keep an eye on.

In the carriage, a man with his hands and feet tied stared directly at him.

It was obvious that he was a stranger, with a sinister face, and he looked like he had failed many business ventures.

"I'm Li Yu."

"What?"

"I said, I'm Li Yu. I heard you were looking for me?"

"Yeah, let me go. I'm Captain Smith's boatswain."

Li Yu was stunned for a moment, and was instantly attacked crazily by the lost memory.

Smith, the Irish sailor and potato lover, was coerced by himself to go to the capital and pretend to be an envoy of the Siris mission.

He didn't die?
The public security in Nanyang is so good now.

Thinking of this, he smiled and said: "From now on, shut up. Don't speak until I let you speak."

Ling Ahliu was very happy and felt that he had done a successful little thing for Mr. Li.

Li Yu and his party took this distant guest into Xujiang Park.

The park’s fence is still under construction.

Originally it was just a brick wall, but now it is a brick wall with rammed earth.

The reason is very good. The world is not peaceful and thieves are rampant.

What if the thieves come to Suzhou? This possibility not only exists, but is also very high.

Therefore, the merchants in the park worked together to
A "security fee" was paid to strengthen the fence and build watchtowers every [-] meters.

……

Li Yu could swear by Luo Shui that the money was not collected by him forcibly, but paid voluntarily by the merchants.

He just decided to take on this defense task out of a strong sense of social responsibility.

It happened that the Dongshan team training camp was overcrowded.

100 people were selected from them and allowed to graduate and join the glorious Xujiang Park security department.

Security, not security.

Changing the word order means the meanings are vastly different.

The security guards were armed with long sticks and spearheads hanging from their waists, and were dressed in black.

Patrol the wall on time every day and stand guard.

Li Yuanwu, the magistrate of Wuxian County, came once and greatly appreciated it.

Just this method of separating the spear head and the spear stick is very particular, and it perfectly avoids some taboos in the Qing Dynasty.

On the outside of the wall, the heads of some thieves were hung.

In short, the park is a pure land.Wind can enter, rain can enter, but soldiers and bandits are not allowed to enter.

It was the circular warehouse next to the dock, and the voices of doubt were too loud.

Even Huang Wenyun has made insinuations several times, implying that you cannot cross the line and don't treat everyone in the world as a fool.

In the Qing Dynasty, Haiyan and Heqing, who do you want to guard against?

I believe you are just being a bit domineering and have no ill intentions.But others are not as kind as me.

Li Yu has a headache!
How can I stop the people in the world from talking and believe in my "loyalty"?
