Chapter 158 Great Victory in Ningbo Mansion

Chi Qiguang received Huaiying's handwritten letter, and after reading it, he pondered for a moment, looked at the soldiers who were still waiting for his order, and said, "You took the heads to the Ministry of War, and the noise became more and more serious when you entered Beijing. The bigger the better, the best is that everyone who sees you along the way knows that you have wiped out the Japanese pirates."

After a pause, he raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "Huaiying has done a good job. The lucky boat is dedicated to the imperial court. I will send someone to take over the sandboat."

When the soldiers were ordered to leave, Chi Qiguang thought of the chart he had given to Huaiying.

Huaiying said in the letter that experienced soldiers had checked the corpses of the Japanese pirates, and said that the Japanese pirates had been dead for about two days before they came to the island, while Ji Sibo left Ningbo Mansion three days ago.

Huaiying had some doubts about Ji Sibo, but he was not sure, so he told him his guess.

But after Chi Qiguang listened to his guess, a figure suddenly appeared in his mind.

Ji Fushou.
If Ji Sibo didn't have this ability, what about Ji Fushou?
For some reason, he intuitively felt that this matter had something to do with her.The islands of Japanese pirates do not have charts, so they cannot be found in the vast sea, and she is in Ningbo Mansion. Song Xing and the others happened to be dead, and the British government was thrown in by people with high martial arts skills to smuggle lists and charts.

If he hadn't intervened to send Huaiying there, and Ji Sibo had stayed in Ningbo Mansion as commander-in-chief, what would have happened now?

He thought for a while, shook his head helplessly, and murmured: "Forget it, now that things have come to an end, I still have to think about how to take the next step. The matter is different from my plan. I originally wanted to choke their throats secretly to make them afraid. Now it’s time to confront it clearly.”

He asked Huaiying to go to Ningbo Mansion because he wanted to deal with Wang Yu and the others, since he couldn't do it in the dark, he should do it in the open.But this time, it made Wang Yu and the others frightened and asked them to come to negotiate terms with their British government.

His slender fingers lightly tapped on the copy, and the voice of "Du Tu Tu" sounded in the study, "More than 600 heads are enough for Huaiying to be promoted to a fourth-rank general. He is not suitable to stay in Ningbo Mansion now. We still have to reassign someone to be the commander-in-chief."

The benefits of smuggling are too great. Among them are the third prince's natal family and the fourth prince's wife's family. If they are allowed to continue to grab money, if these families use their money to recruit soldiers and horses when they seize the throne, then they will have to pay for their money. is a trouble.

Therefore, he must ensure that the commander-in-chief of the Ningbo Mansion is firmly in the hands of the British government, so that Wang Yu and the others will be afraid, and they will not dare to tear themselves apart with the British government until the fish dies and the net is broken.

Chi Qiguang recalled the cronies who were with Huaiying, and wrote down a name.He blew on the ink, and took the paper to the British Duke.

After listening to what he said, the British Duke sighed with a smile, "I originally wanted Huaiying to go to Ningbo Mansion to exercise, but after less than half a month, he had such great military achievements."

This kind of military merit is still not wanted by others, it can be picked up for nothing, and the British Duke will lament Huaiying's good luck.However, the British Duke would rather that Huaiying had achieved military exploits by fighting Japanese pirates with real swords and guns, otherwise he would go to the Northwest battlefield in the future and wonder if he would be able to save his life on the battlefield.

Yingying stood up and said to Chi Qiguang: "Father, go back to the room and change some clothes before going to the Ministry of War."

At this time, outside the city gate, there were six or seven people guarding two flatbed carts full of wooden boxes and walking towards the city. Soldiers, wipe out more than 600 Japanese pirates!"

The flatbed car moved very slowly because there were three layers of wooden boxes on it, and the wooden boxes were easy to fall when walking too fast.

So all the people on the street where the flatbed truck passed heard the news of the great victory of Ningbo Mansion.

The common people couldn't believe it, and some brave people asked, "Master, is what you said true?"

As if to prove that he was not lying, the convoy stopped, and one of the military masters sat on the horse, opened the wooden box, and revealed the heads inside, "Look, these are the heads of Japanese pirates!"

"vomit--"

The man's head exuded a stench, and there were maggots crawling around. The eyeballs were eaten by maggots, revealing the empty eye sockets, which was terrifying.

Seeing that the stench began to spread, the man hurriedly covered the wooden box. Many of the people retched, because of the disgusting appearance of the head, they all stayed away from the flatbed truck, for fear that the maggots would fall out.

In the corner beside the street, Ji Fushou and Ji Sibo watched the scene quietly.

Coincidentally, they also happened to arrive in the capital today, and they saw the two flatbed trucks in the suburbs of Beijing, but they did not expect that they would come from Ningbo.

Ji Fushou waited for the flatbed truck to pass by, glanced at Ji Sibo, and said in a low voice, "It seems that someone took away the credit for your hard work all night."

Ji Sibo looked normal and shrugged, "I couldn't get the military merit in the first place. Huaiying got it, and that was his own ability. If he went to the island a few days later and his body rotted, he wouldn't be able to get the military merit."

Regarding this matter, Ji Sibo took it easy, anyway, even if he had no military merits, he would be happy if he killed those Japanese.

But he has a question, "Auntie, how does Huaiying know how to go to the island?"

Ji Fushou's eyes flickered, "Let's go, maybe we'll find out in a few days."

The flatbed truck hadn't reached the Ministry of War yet, and those well-informed knew about the great victory in Ningbo Mansion.

Especially some people with a guilty conscience sent people to inquire about the news one after another. Even Zhongshuling Wang Yu paid great attention to this matter.

When the flatbed truck arrived at the Ministry of War, the British Duke also happened to arrive at the Ministry of War.

When the soldiers saw the Duke of England, they dismounted and saluted him.The British prince waved his hand and led them into the military office with a smile on his face.

The Minister of the Ministry of War had received the news a long time ago, and he was waiting in the lobby of the Yamen, with the Minister of the Ministry of War and others beside him.

Seeing the Duke of England coming in with two flatbed carts, the Secretary of the Ministry of War laughed heartily, "I have heard about the great victory in Ningbo Mansion. Congratulations to the Duke of England."

Thinking back to the fact that I was the one who decided to sell a favor to the British Duke, and now that the British Duke's nephew has wiped out so many Japanese pirates and made great contributions, this favor is a good one.

The British Duke also bowed his hands to him with a red face, "Master Cheng is also happy, I have another strong general in my court."

Minister of the Ministry of War laughed loudly, "It's extremely, the Duke of the State came in and sat down. Let them do the counting of the heads. After verifying the military merits, I will ask for the merits of Huaiying's nephew!"

The British official followed the Minister of the Ministry of War to the value house in a good manner. It happened that he also had something to discuss with the Minister of the Ministry of War. In the courtyard of the lobby, the Minister of the Ministry of War was left with a small official to count the heads of the Japanese pirates and verify military merits.
