Southern Song Dynasty military god

Chapter 437 General, It's Difficult

Han Shizhong, known as the "General", of course, his real official position is not this, it is just a folk title.

Among the folks in the Southern Song Dynasty, Han Shizhong's reputation was excellent, not only because he turned the tide, but the story between him and Liang Hongyu also became the talk of the common people after dinner, which made his reputation even more popular.

Therefore, Han Shizhong led the army into the city, and most of the people in Gongzhou City welcomed it.

In contrast, for Liu Wei, because of the distance, his reputation is not obvious, and even the only thing he has is notoriety.In this era without network communications, most of what civilians can know comes from official voices.

At least most people don't think that those who are posted on several city gates and wanted by the court are good people.

From this point of view, Gongzhou is really not a place that is beneficial to Liu Wei.When Han Shizhong entered the city and issued the order to close the city, although there were complaints from the people, they had not yet reached the point of explosion.

But the current way of closing the city that only enters and cannot be closed, if it is delayed for too long, it will always cause inconvenience to people's lives. Even if people appreciate you in their hearts, in the end, these appreciations will be obliterated and turned into hatred.

Han Shizhong was not afraid of the hatred of Gongzhou people, but he was worried about the impact on his reputation after these remarks spread.Although Han Shizhong is just a general, he actually cherishes his feathers very much.

Therefore, Han Shizhong had to hurry up, and after the city was closed, he began to act secretly to search and arrest Liu Wei.

The search and arrest in the whole city, if it is light, spares life, if it is serious, it may even lead to a civil uprising.For Han Shizhong's order to search and arrest the whole process, the county magistrate of Gongzhou opposed it in his heart.But it was useless for him to object, Han Shizhong's rank was much higher than him, and more importantly, Han Shizhong had soldiers in his hands!

Anytime, anywhere, in the final analysis, fists are used to speak, and only those with strong strength have the right to speak.

As soon as the search and arrest operation started, Han Shizhong sat in the county government office. On the one hand, it was located in the center of the city, which was convenient for dealing with emergencies. It was a violation of his orders. Only by sitting here can the effect of this raid be guaranteed.

As for whether Liu Weiji's subordinates were really in Gongzhou City, Han Shizhong was only [-]% sure in his mind, but just now, the news of an urgent [-] miles boosted Han Shizhong's confidence to [-]% or [-]%.

Dama Jindao sat in the main hall of the county yamen, Han Shizhong, with a bowl of tea in front of him. From morning to noon, he hardly moved a single bit. This patience alone is comparable to ordinary people.

From time to time, generals under Han Shizhong's command walked into the main hall to report the situation to Han Shizhong.Because Han Shizhong took conspicuousness as his base camp, not far from where Han Shizhong sat, there were several generals, standing in front of a huge hanging map, marking the gathered news carefully. on the map.

This map is naturally a sketch of Gongzhou City. Although it may not be very accurate, at least there are every street and alley in Gongzhou City on it. Han Shizhong's soldiers and horses conduct a carpet search according to the street. , unless Liu Wei puts on his wings and flies out of the city, he will eventually show his feet.

However, the county magistrate of Gongzhou did not have Han Shizhong's certainty in his heart. In his opinion, the longer the delay in this level of search and arrest, the more serious the consequences would be!If it really triggers a civil uprising, Han Shizhong will lead the army to pat the buttocks, and he, the county magistrate, will not be the only one to solve the remaining mess.

Yu Nong was dissatisfied with Han Shizhong in his heart, but the county magistrate's expression became more respectful.

"Master Han, if there is nothing for your subordinates here, and your subordinates want to go down to eat first, sir, it's already noon, and you should also eat, and you must not hurt your body because of business!"

"Oh? Master Lin, if you want to go to eat, please feel free to do it yourself. I don't need to worry about Master Lin's own mood!"

Han Shizhong didn't even raise his eyelids. Han Shizhong didn't love or hate this county magistrate Lin, and the two of them had no friendship in the past. After all, it was just cooperation at work, and Han Shizhong didn't need to show good looks to him at all. Look, his only request is that magistrate Lin should not interfere with his work, that's all.

County magistrate Lin with an ugly face walked out of the main hall of the yamen that belonged to him with square steps. The smile that had accumulated on his face disappeared immediately, and turned into resentment.

"My lord, is the general still busy inside?"

As soon as County Magistrate Lin came out, a yamen servant wandering around walked over and flattered him.

"Humph!"

Let out a cold snort from his nostrils, the Lin county magistrate didn't have to act in front of his own yamen servant, not only his face was ugly, but then he said: "I hope that he will get nothing in Gongzhou City!"

"Why did your lord say such a thing?"

The yamen servant didn't seem to understand why, so he asked.

"Isn't it? If he really captured Liu Wei on his territory, you, as the court, would think it was due to him? Hmph, at that time, he might join me in the memorial, Impeaching the official is ineffective and the rule is not strict! Hey, didn’t everyone lead a team to search and arrest, Zhang San, why are you still here?”

"If I go back to my lord, the younger one is going to lead the team. Unfortunately, just as my lord hoped, I got nothing, so I will come back naturally. If my lord has some errands, how about everyone around me?" Zhang San, with a full face Flattering, half-bent, talking to County Magistrate Lin.

"So fast? That's fine, let's go, I'm going to find a place, I'm happy!"

County magistrate Lin felt aggrieved, and finally had a chance to let go, so he naturally wanted to relax, and for men, the best way to relax and vent was of course to find a woman.

Although Gongzhou City is not big, although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs. Gongzhou City has everything that a city should have.Like Goulan Yard, there are several in Gongzhou City, but they are of different grades.

As a county magistrate, Master Lin would only go to the highest-grade courtyard called "Wanhua Palace".Although Han Shizhong is now closing down the city, all walks of life have not closed down because of this. On the contrary, wherever they can stay overnight, the business is booming.

Wanhua Palace is no exception, because the closed city can only enter but not exit. Some businessmen stranded in Gongzhou City will naturally find a place to spend the night. If they have money, staying in Wanhua Palace can be regarded as legitimate. A kind of "joy in bitterness".

As soon as Master Lin stepped into the Wanhua Palace, he naturally received a warm welcome. However, as a frequent visitor to the Wanhua Palace, Master Lin did not need too much introduction from the old bustard. I entered the Tianzi No. [-] room, which is usually not used by anyone.

Before entering the room, Mr. Lin specifically asked Zhang San, the yamen servant, to stand guard at the gate of Wanhua Palace, and if Han Shizhong had something to do, he had to hurry to pass it on.It's a pity that Mr. Lin never imagined that Zhang San, who is super obedient to him on the surface, is a person who "is in Cao Ying and his heart is in Han".

Master Lin entered the room with his front foot, but Zhang San slipped away with his back foot.

Not long after, a young man appeared at the entrance of Wanhua Palace. This young man was tall and handsome. As soon as he entered Wanhua Palace, the old bustard with poisonous eyes could tell at a glance that this young man was a distinguished guest. Hurry up to say hello.

The young man didn't talk too much, he stuffed a small Kuaiyin ingot into his wife's palm, and successfully got the right to stay in Tianzi No. [-] room. .

The sky turned dark, and the Wanhua Palace became more lively, but this kind of excitement was limited to the downstairs. As the most expensive room in the Wanhua Palace, it was much quieter in comparison. After all, this place is used to receive For distinguished guests, and distinguished guests often don't like to be disturbed by others, so when the Wanhua Palace was laid out at the beginning, it was considered.

It is normal for a person like Mr. Lin to stay in Wanhua Palace for one or two nights. Without his order, even the old bustard of Wanhua Palace would not dare to knock on the door easily.

To the old bustard's surprise, the young gentleman who lived in Tianzi's No. [-] room actually paid for the room and the girl to stay overnight.Since everyone has already paid the money, the old bustard has no reason to disagree, only secret joy in his heart.

It's time to light the lanterns, and the county government office is brightly lit.

Han Shizhong, who had been sitting in the lobby since he got up in the morning, was still sitting high at this moment, and his posture didn't seem to have changed in any way. The only difference was that Han Shizhong's face had become extremely ugly.

Tens of thousands of soldiers have been mobilized, and the entire Gongzhou City has almost been turned over. As a result, he has been busy all day, but there is no result at all. How can Han Shizhong be in a good mood?
Hunting a group of people in a city gave Han Shizhong the feeling that it was more difficult than fighting a war.Facing the fierce Jin soldiers, Han Shizhong had never been so frustrated before.

Liu Wei is powerful, and Han Shizhong knew in his heart that in the past, he even regarded Liu Wei as the hope among the younger generation of generals in the Song Dynasty.But Han Shizhong still believed that Liu Wei was just a young man, hiding in Gongzhou City with a small number of men, but how did he escape such a massive search?

Could it be that they really found a place to dig a hole and hid it?
"No news yet?"

Seeing that the sky outside was getting darker and darker, Han Shizhong couldn't bear it after all, and asked for the first time.

The few generals who were still busy in front of the map were also complaining in their hearts at this moment. They hadn't left the lobby all day, and judging by their current state, they might stay up all night.At this time Han Shizhong spoke, and a general hurriedly stepped forward and said:

"My lord, I've searched almost the whole city. At present, this area is the only one, but according to the servants in the county government office, there are beggars living in that area."

"Beggars? Hey, why did you miss this place! Or do you think that Liu Yi won't hide among a group of beggars, check it out for me, check it out now!"

Han Shizhong slammed the table suddenly and angrily reprimanded several generals.
