Chapter 423 Capture of Qinglong City

Luo Hongfan said: "Qinglong City's defenders are relatively small, and 500 people should be enough to attack the city, but Weiyang City is heavily guarded, and the number of garrison troops is unknown. The chairman asked General Chen to take only 500 people to attack the city. Isn't it a bit of an adventure?"

Chen Huanzhi said: "Since Gu Quan can lead 500 people to attack Qinglong City, I, Chen Huanzhi, only need the same force to attack Weiyang City, so I don't have to worry about Master Luo."

Huang Xiaohu said: "Basically, the siege is to allow victory and not defeat, so I want you two to issue a military order. If you can't break through the city within ten days, then you can only deal with it by military law. What do you two agree?" ?”

Chen Huanzhi said: "I'm sure there is no problem, I don't know what to do with Gu Quanyi?"

Gu Quan said: "Gu Quan is willing to issue a military order. If Gu Quan cannot take down Qinglong City within ten days, he is willing to be punished by military law!"

Chen Huanzhi also said: "I, Chen Huanzhi, am willing to issue a military order. If I, Chen Huanzhi, cannot take down Weiyang City within ten days, I am willing to accept military law punishment!"

Huang Xiaohu said happily: "Okay, since the two generals are willing to issue a military order, I will give you three days to select soldiers and prepare supplies. After three days, the time will start to count. I hope you can capture the army within the specified time. city."

Huang Xiaohu deliberately provoked the two generals in such a way that he hoped that they could do their best. In fact, even if they failed to capture the city in the end, Huang Xiaohu would not really execute them.

After Gu Quan and Chen Huanzhi left, Luo Hongfan said to Huang Xiaohu: "Gu Quan attacked Qinglong City, because he had a close relationship with the defenders, and Qinglong City was short of guards, so the city would be destroyed within ten days; but Weiyang City has a heavy army. The guarded place, I don't know if General Chen can break through the city within ten days?"

Huang Xiaohu said with a smile: "Lord Luo, you want to know if General Chen can't break through Weiyang City, will I really punish him with military law, right?"

Luo Hongfan said: "I do have this intention, but I really want to know what the Chairman's plan is."

Huang Xiaohu said: "If the city cannot be captured within ten days, it will definitely be punished by military law, but I have my own clever plan, and I will never really hurt their lives, but you also know, Mr. Luo, since the military order has been issued, it will definitely be punished by the military law." You have to put on a show, otherwise you won’t be able to convince the public, right?”

Luo Hongfan said: "Mr. Chairman, now is the time for employing people. Although General Chen is reckless, he is an upright man. This person will definitely help Mr. Chairman achieve great success, so I hope Mr. Chairman will not hurt you with emotion. General Chen's life."

Huang Xiaohu asked: "Why do you feel that Master Luo seems to be sure that General Chen will not be able to break through the city within ten days?"

Luo Hongfan said: "With 3000 soldiers and horses, he attacked Weiyang City because of his will. At the beginning, the troops who attacked Panlong County were more than [-] people. Chairman, the guards of Weiyang City are not worse than those of Panlong County, so I I think that General Chen's going here is probably more or less auspicious."

Huang Xiaohu said: "Don't worry, I naturally have a way to help General Chen break the city!"

Luo Hongfan asked in surprise: "Oh, does the chairman really have a plan?"

Huang Xiaohu nodded, and said: "You will know when the time comes, this time I also want to teach General Chen a lesson, but as Master Luo said, now is the time to employ people, so I will not lose General Chen easily Such talent."

Three days later, Gu Quan and Chen Huanzhi led their respective armies to prepare to leave. Before leaving, Huang Xiaohu arranged for two messengers from each army, and asked them to use the pigeons to pass the news on their behalf.

After Gu Quan and Chen Huanzhi's army left, Luo Hongfan said to Huang Xiaohu: "It will take two days to go to Qinglong City, even if it is a quick march, but it will take at least three days to go to Weiyang City, so within two or three days, we can only wait. General Chen only has seven days to attack the city, and after a three-day march, he must rest for a day, so the time is really tight!"

Huang Xiaohu said: "I have arranged for a messenger, and I will use the pigeons to send the news, so Master Luo and I just need to wait for the news here."

Luo Hongfan said: "Flying pigeons to pass on letters? I don't know where the chairman can find pigeons for training?"

Huang Xiaohu said with a smile: "I happened to meet a pigeon breeder in Panlong County, and then I bought them all, and after a little training, they can help me pass the news, which is really very convenient."

Luo Hongfan said happily: "In this way, we really just need to wait patiently."

While waiting, Huang Xiaohu received a pigeon letter from Guo Yi, to the effect that everything went well and he was about to arrive in the coastal area.Judging from the time, Guo Yi and the others should have been away for more than two weeks.

Huang Xiaohu delivered the letter, in addition to comforting and encouraging Guo Yi and the others to bring back as many special craftsmen and skilled workers as possible, especially handmade craftsmen.Moreover, Huang Xiaohu also suggested that when returning, try to recruit capable people and strangers who can be accommodated along the way.

Three days later, Huang Xiaohu received a message from Gu Quan's army, to the effect that he had arrived at Qinglong City, and was going to secretly discuss an agreement with the guard Wang Hu, so that he should be able to take down Qinglong City without bloodshed.

Huang Xiaohu was overjoyed, and immediately asked Luo Hongfan to edit the book himself, and replied: If you can take down Qinglong City without bloodshed, Gu Quan will be rewarded as the general of Qinglong City, and his friend Wang Hu will be the garrison general.

On the fifth day, Huang Xiaohu received a letter from Chen Huanzhi to attack Weiyang City, to the effect that he had arrived near Weiyang City and was planning to attack the city on another day.

On the sixth day, Gu Quan delivered a letter. It turned out that Qinglong City had already been taken, and now we are waiting for Huang Xiaohu's instructions to make arrangements.

After Huang Xiaohu received the letter, he immediately discussed with Luo Hongfan.

Luo Hongfan said: "At this time, the chairman will finally go to Qinglong City in person to appease the people and promulgate new policies at the same time."

Huang Xiaohu said: "I think it's better for the two of us to go there together."

Luo Hongfan said: "What about Panlong County?"

Huang Xiaohu said: "Lord Luo, don't worry, I will arrange for brother Zixuan to act as the county magistrate temporarily, and the general of the forbidden army, Ji Wu, can be in charge of the city defense."

Luo Hongfan said: "Since the chairman asked me to go, I can't postpone it, so when shall we go?"

Huang Xiaohu said: "We are going to leave tomorrow, so I will reply to Gu Quan and them now, saying that we will arrive in Qinglong City in the next day."

Luo Hongfan said: "That's fine, but who will the president plan to arrange to be in charge of Qinglong City?"

Huang Xiaohu said: "Gu Quan will definitely stay in Qinglong City to take charge of the guard work. Gu Quan's friend, the original guard Wang Hu will definitely stay to assist Gu Quan. It's just that I don't have a suitable candidate for the chief executive of Qinglong City. I wonder if Lord Luo has any suitable recommendations?"

"Chief Executive?" Luo Hongfan didn't quite understand the meaning.

Huang Xiaohu explained: "It's the same position as you. The county magistrate of Qinglong County, I usually call him the county magistrate."

Luo Hongfan said: "This needs a trustworthy candidate. I can recommend someone. This person is a dog."

Huang Xiaohu said happily: "Lord Luo, your son's words are the best, but is your son okay?"

Luo Hongfan said: "Although the success is not enough, it can still follow the rules, and the dog is benevolent and selfless, so it can be barely competent."

Huang Xiaohu said: "As a matter of fact, it's good to be loyal, and we can also guide him in some things. Besides, Gu Quan is Lord Luo's confidant and beloved general. I think your son should be able to get along well with him."

Luo Hongfan said: "It is precisely because of the consideration of the general's safety that I recommend the dog rashly. Please don't be overwhelmed, Mr. President."

Huang Xiaohu said: "Why would I be overwhelmed? Qinglong City was not in my consideration originally. I also listened to Master Luo's idea and asked Gu Quan recommended by Master Luo to lead troops to attack Qinglong City. Now I have won it." After that, it is natural that someone whom Lord Luo trusts will be needed to serve as the chief executive, and I think it is very good that Lord Luo can recommend his son."

Luo Hongfan said: "If the chairman has no objection, then this is the decision."

Huang Xiaohu said, "What's your son's name?"

Luo Hongfan said: "Luo Yun, Zifengxiang, is my adopted son. When I adopted him, he was only five years old, and now it has been more than ten years."

Huang Xiaohu said: "So it's your adopted son, who is his real father?"

Luo Hongfan said: "I don't know, when I met him, his parents had already died of illness, and he was wandering here. My wife saw that he was pitiful and well-behaved, so he kindly adopted him."

Huang Xiaohu said: "Didn't you get the honor?"

Luo Hongfan said: "Yizi Luo Yun has been following me, knowledgeable and reasonable, but he has no fame, because he only wants to help me, so he has been doing some clerical work under my hands."

Huang Xiaohu said: "That's good, at least you are familiar with the management of the county seat. Lord Luo, please inform Luo Yun that you will go to Qinglong City with us tomorrow."

Luo Hongfan said: "Obey!"

That night, Huang Xiaohu found Huang Zixuan and Ji Wu, then called Zhao Yali and Zhang Yalan, and said to them: "I'm going to Qinglong City tomorrow, and I need to arrange some things now."

Zhao Yali asked: "Could it be that Qinglong City has already been captured? So fast?"

Huang Xiaohu said: "It is true that Qinglong City has been captured, so we have to go to arrange the next work. In the few days I am away, brother Zixuan will temporarily act as the county magistrate, and Ji Wu will be in charge The work of city defense."

Huang Zixuan said: "My lord, I'm worried that I won't be able to take on this great responsibility."

Huang Xiaohu said: "That's why I informed you that brother Zixuan has any problems. You two, Zhao Yali and Zhang Yalan, help him, and Ji Wu, you also need to protect the safety of our relatives, understand?"

Zhao Yali said: "Hu Zi, how many days are you going?"

Huang Xiaohu said: "It will take less than ten days to go back and forth, so you don't have to worry. If you can't handle it in ten days, then I will be really disappointed."

Ji Wu said: "Brother Huzi, I will ask my two sisters if I have anything to do. Don't worry."

Huang Zixuan said: "Since it is only a temporary acting county magistrate, there is nothing to say. If there is a problem, I will naturally discuss it with the president's wife."

Zhao Yali said: "Huzi, then you can rest assured, Zhang Yalan and I will help you for a few days, there should be no problem."

Zhang Yalan also said: "We take the tiger to work in the county government, no one should be rude to us."

Huang Xiaohu said: "Proceed with caution. Anyway, I will return as soon as I go. In case of trouble, you can use larks or carrier pigeons to send messages to me, understand?"

Zhang Yalan and Zhao Yali expressed their understanding.
