Crazy at the end of the Ming Dynasty

The robber led Wu Shigong through a small forest and came to a ruined temple.By this time, the sky had completely darkened.Wu Shigong and the others lit the torches and searched the dilapidated temple carefully.No one was found, and it is estimated that the robbers just now did not dare to return to this ruined temple.

Wu Shigong sent several groups of guards to ambush around the ruined temple as secret guards. They followed the robber through the back gate of the ruined temple and walked for a while on a winding path lined with shrubs on both sides. Came to a small yard surrounded by bamboo fences.

As soon as they entered the small courtyard, Wu Shigong and the others were startled.The small courtyard is full of carts full of goods, and there are more than a dozen horses locked in the grass shed in the small courtyard eating hay.

Wu Shigong thought to himself: "It seems that these robbers are the group who hijacked Guide to the Jining caravan, and all the goods they robbed are hidden here."

Wu Shigong asked the robber about the situation of their group.

The robber replied: "Grandpa, the group of us are all people from the nearby village called by the monks in this temple. The disaster is too serious now, so we will do some cheap business together. However, The little ones don't know where those monks came from, but they only know that the leaders in our village are very respectful to them."

It has been a long time since Wu Shigong traveled to the Ming Dynasty.He understood that the "stockade" mentioned by the robber meant the bandit den.If the robber hadn't lied, these monks were able to gather several groups of bandits to rob together, which probably has some origins.

Wu Shigong asked the robber repeatedly, wanting to know the origins of those monks, but the robber couldn't tell the reason.Seeing that he couldn't ask any more questions, Wu Shigong gestured to the guard behind the robber. The guard stabbed him with the knife in his hand, and the robber struggled a few times, then lay still on the ground.

At this moment, the sound of gunshots suddenly came from the direction of the ruined temple. Wu Shigong and the others immediately took out the weapons around them and ran towards the ruined temple.

After arriving at the ruined temple, I saw only a person lying on the ground of the main hall of the ruined temple, with a big hole in his chest blasted out by the firecrackers, and he couldn't die anymore.And a few sentry guards surrounded the corpse with weapons in their hands.

"What happened?" Wu Shigong asked.

"My lord, that man sneaked in sneakily, and was discovered by our secret whistle, and he was killed here."

Wu Shigong checked the corpse and found that the corpse was another monk.

That monk was also unlucky, he didn't come sooner or later, he came when Wu Shigong and the others went to the small courtyard.Seeing that there was no fire in the ruined temple, he thought that there was no one in the ruined temple, so he walked in, but he was beaten to death by those secret sentries.

Wu Shigong looked at the monk's body, and his mind brightened: that monk alone would never have taken away the goods in the courtyard.This shows that there are still gold, silver and jewelry hidden in this ruined temple.

As soon as Wu Shigong shared his thoughts with the guards, everyone immediately got excited and searched the ruined temple up and down.Finally, a hidden partition was found under the Buddha statue in the main hall, which contained more than 800 taels of silver.

Wu Shigong asked the guards to search the corpse of the robber they brought back again, and found another seven or eighty taels of silver.In this way, the harvest this time is not small.In addition to those goods, more than 80 taels of silver came into the account.

Wu Shigong was also afraid of long nights and dreams. After harnessing all the carts with horses, Wu Shigong and the others immediately left the ruined temple and came to the road.They simply formed a big circle with carts on the road, lit a few piles of firewood, and spent the night on the road.

The next day, as soon as the sun rose, Wu Shigong and the others set off with a cart.They didn't even enter Guide Mansion City, but when they passed by Guide Mansion City, they sent two guards to report the robbers to old man Zhao Ming.The rest of the people hurried all the way back to Qianhusuo Fortress as fast as they could.

After returning to the fortress of Qianhusuo, Wu Shigong immediately found a merchant in the small town to estimate the value of the goods on the cart.After estimating the value, Wu Shigong recruited all the bosses like Xue Yongli.

Wu Shigong knew in modern times: the matter of dividing spoils is the thing that accumulates the most group popularity, and it is also the thing that causes the most conflicts.Therefore, he must clearly distribute the spoils of this time.

In front of these leaders, Wu Shigong carefully calculated the value of the spoils.In the end, the silver, goods, horses and weapons were converted into a total of 500 taels of silver.

Once the calculation was completed, Wu Shigong immediately took out 500 taels of silver and distributed them.Except for those guards who took part in the battle, the soldiers and auxiliary personnel in Qianhusuo Fortress were more or less allocated.Including Yang Goudan, the blacksmith and several apprentices in his blacksmith workshop.There are also those fifty teenagers who are Wu Shigong's servants.

Even Yang Goudan's wife got a share.Yang Goudan's wife is in the fortress of Qianhusuo, and she is very popular.Because, in the fortress of Qianhusuo, there are basically big men, and Yang Goudan's wife basically responds to requests for some sewing and mending.

In addition, her eldest son, Yang Rusong, also performed very well during the cavalry training, and the relationship with his companions was also very harmonious.So until now, Yang Goudan's attempt to take a concubine has not been successful.Yang Goudan was also in the fortress of Qianhusuo, and could not get the support of a single person.It is estimated that Yang Goudan will vent his anger on iron materials in his whole life.

In Guide Mansion City, after hearing the report from the guards sent by Wu Shigong, the beard on the fat face of the old man Zhao Ming was trembling with joy.Because, Wu Shigong is too good, I gave him some credit.

In the Ming Dynasty, whether it was suppressing bandits or killing enemies, military merits were calculated with the heads of bandits and enemies.Wu Shigong just killed the robbers and threw them in the ruined temple, without cutting off their heads at all.As long as the old man Zhao Ming leads someone there and hacks the head of the dead person, he can get military merit. Why doesn't this make the old man Zhao Ming happy?

In fact, in these days, some people who escaped from the hijacked caravan have reported to the government, and also reported to the Guide Mansion.The Governor of Guide Mansion ordered the old man Zhao Ming to lead troops to encircle and suppress.

However, how dare the old man Zhao Ming?The old man Zhao Ming's dragon spirit and tiger fierceness were used to deal with tender grass on the bed, not against vicious gangsters.Therefore, the old man Zhao Ming always finds various reasons and refuses to send troops.

Now, a big pie fell from the sky, and the old man Zhao Ming immediately decided to order troops to set off.However, the old man Zhao Ming is very good at being a man.Before leaving, he also sent someone to send a letter to the governor of Guide Mansion.

The governor of Guide Mansion was also overjoyed after receiving the report.In the Ming Dynasty, local instability was a major stain on the achievements of local officials.These days, the governor of Guide Mansion is doing everything possible to cover up the cover, not wanting to let the news of the robbers in Guide Mansion spread to the ears of his superiors.

The governor of Guide Mansion is still praying to gods and worshiping Buddha. I hope that these robbers will eat up soon in Guide Mansion and go to other prefectures and counties to harm others soon.

Unexpectedly, I got such good news.Now the governor of Guide Mansion is not only free of political stains, but old man Zhao Ming even gave him some credit.Then why hesitate?The governor of Guide Mansion immediately ordered his guard leader to bring most of his guards and yamen servants together with old man Zhao Ming's soldiers and horses to kill the corpses of the robbers.

In the end, a total of nearly 600 people gathered, led by the guards sent by Wu Shigong, and arrived at the county where the ruined temple was located.

The county magistrate of that county heard that he could take credit for his merits, so he also sent out the county government servants.These people came to the ruined temple together, and first of all they cut off the heads of those corpses.Then, in the name of sweeping up the bandits, they had a great time extorting money near the ruined temple.After such a delay, more than ten days passed.

At this time, the defensive force of Guide Prefecture City has been reduced by more than half.
