Number of People

  Chapter 47 The Politics of this Era

  Feng Ziying slept soundly.

  Going north to Linqing from Dongchang Mansion, I chose to depart at Xu time. Feng Ziying, who had been suffering for two days and one night, couldn't stand it any longer, so she fell asleep on the boat.

   This sleep lasted until the Clippers passed Daijiawan, and only a few miles away from Linqingzhou City, Zuo Liangyu woke him up.

  Both Chen Jingxuan and Zhao Wenzhao felt unusual for Feng Ziying's peaceful sleep.

  Faced with such a big battle that cannot be judged, this son dared to fall asleep soundly before the battle. If he didn't have a little courage, he really couldn't do it, and this son was only twelve years old.

  If Gan Luo can worship the prime minister twelve times, he can go out twelve times? But in any case, Feng Ziying's performance made Chen Jingxuan and Zhao Wenzhao's feelings in their hearts rise to another level.

   "Is it here?" Feng Ziying stood at the bow of the big boat.

  The speed of the boat slowly slowed down, and a dolphin approached quickly. This was provided by the Shanshan Grain Gang. It accommodated more people than the Shansuo boat, and the speed was slightly slower.

   "Well, Zhao and a brother, plus Mr. Qin, are with this little brother." Zhao Wenzhao is very polite: "Please rest assured, Mr. Feng, Zhao guarantees the safety of this little brother..."

  For the Jin Yiwei, they can be polite to the censors and officials, but they can be polite to the generals and others, but Zhao Wenzhao still maintains respect for Feng Ziying in terms of etiquette.

   This kind of respect even made the other general banner who followed him feel a little unbelievable.

  Even if this person can provide some help for this campaign, isn’t that also a good opportunity for those gangsters to make meritorious deeds and atone for their crimes?

"Lord Zhao Baihu, I wish that after this battle, Zhao Baihu will be able to call Zhao Qianhu next time, but I also hope that Zhao Baihu will keep his promise, not only for the safety of my brother, but also for our previous The things I mentioned, I don't want things to turn out to be unmanageable in the end. Well, before leaving, Mr. Patrolman also specifically mentioned to Mr. Commander-in-Chief that this year's water transportation is about to start. If it delays the water transportation, I'm afraid who It's not good either."

  Feng Ziying had to remind Zhao Wenzhao, who was beaming with joy, that this guy was a little carried away, and if he didn't, he would cross the bottom line.

  Chen Jingxuan specifically reminded the other party, but the effect was not good.

Zhang Jin is gone, and the only person who can restrain the other party is gone. Chen Jingxuan can't shout anymore. Once he can't control it, Linqing City will be destroyed. It's okay to lose money and things, but once the fire is raised, it will be difficult. Take control.

  He can only use Qiao Yingjia's tiger skin as a banner. In fact, has Qiao Yingjia ever discussed these matters with him?

Zhao Wenzhao froze slightly, Chen Jingxuan treated this young man very politely, and Master Qianhu also secretly told people to check the details of this person, which shows that this person is extraordinary, just because there is Qiao Yingjia behind him, people have to weigh a few times It is said that Mr. Cao suffered a dark loss because of this.

   "Don't worry, Mr. Feng, Mr. Qianhu has orders, Zhao does not dare to go beyond." Zhao Wenzhao nodded.

   It's no wonder that they didn't dare to overstep. This group of Jinyiwei will restrain themselves a little in front of civil officials. Today, such an opportunity is once in a thousand years, how can they give up easily?

  Even the gang of soldiers under Chen Jingxuan are gearing up, let alone this gang of cannibals?

  He can only do his best so that the other party will not be too presumptuous. I hope Chen Jingxuan can rein in these wild horses.

   "Erlang, you take Zhao Baihu and Qin Bazong to go. Remember, don't be too fussy, and let Uncle Wang and the others act according to our original agreement."

  Feng Ziying didn't have much to say at this time.

   It stands to reason that his going might reassure Wang Chaozuo more, but a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, he is not noble enough to ignore his own safety.

  Last night, he had no choice but to go out for the swim. He no longer wanted to take such a risk. After finally taking the trip, even Lin Luoli saw him. How could he easily lose his life?

  As more than 30 large ships approached the outer city of Linqing, the entire outer city of Linqing seemed to wake up suddenly at a certain moment.

This is less than 10 o'clock in the morning, and it is also the time when human beings are most sleepy during the day. Although the rebellious army also sent out secret sentries and responded immediately, no matter from which point of view, this kind of people who have never been through the battlefield It is difficult for a team to make a correct response.

  Accompanied by the clamor and noise in the outer city, as well as the fire that soared into the sky, the situation in the entire Linqing City immediately collapsed and became uncontrollable.

   There is only one battalion of Cao Bing, no more than a few hundred people, but it is enough for this gang of bandits.

  Feng Ziying didn't intend to be a hero at all.

  In this kind of situation, even a stream of arrows can buy one's life, and a thieves who come out of nowhere can also put oneself in a state of death with a single knife.

  Therefore, it is most suitable to obediently follow Chen Jingxuan, Zhao Wenzhao and their party while chatting and laughing happily, and the mast and scull are wiped out.

  Chen Jingxuan's two generals lead a team each, the South Road breaks in from Nanshuimen and Jingdai Gate, while the East Road breaks in directly along the East Water Gate.

  The rebel army fought fiercely with Cao Bing on the East Water Gate, but as the willow households led by Wang Chaozuo suddenly fled, the entire East Water Gate immediately opened wide.

  The gang of Lifu in the south even whistled and scattered, which only caused chaos in the entire outer city. Many places were set on fire by bandits, causing chaos, but this was of no use in turning the tide of the battle.

   It can be said that the whole battle is basically lackluster, without any exciting highlights.

This is only in Feng Ziying's opinion. In fact, Feng Ziying is also very clear that after he successfully persuaded Cao Bing to fight, there is no suspense in this war. .

There is no time to integrate, and the chaotic army, which is still arguing about what to do next, encounters a super-efficient cavalry raid at night, coupled with the deliberate "collapse" of the internal response, this battle, do you think? You can't lose.

  The frenzied fighting power of the White Lotus Cult bandits only broke out once when they fled from Xiyanmen and Jingximen.

Hundreds of fanatical believers fought fiercely with the soldiers in Shi Hutong and Sanguan Temple, but in front of the organized soldiers, these religious bandits, who were almost all supported by weapons such as bamboo poles, guns, hatchets, etc., could not last long , perhaps their only idea is to keep the West Yanmen Gate so that most people can escape from Linqing City.

   "Zhao Baihu, I will take my leave." Feng Ziying couldn't help but sigh inwardly when he saw Wang Chaozuo leaving with a guard in Jinyi in a little confusion.

  No way, if you do something wrong, you have to pay the price. If you want to keep the hundreds of willow weavers in Weijia Hutong, you have to cooperate with the government.

Fortunately, the Bailian sect bandits have already dispersed and fled, and everything can be blamed on them, while the willow weavers were just being used by others, and they took a wrong step. With Wang Chaozuo, the leader, repenting and fighting back, it was regarded as a slap in the face. These hundreds of households escaped bad luck.

Zuo Liangyu also seemed to feel something, the previous excitement, satisfaction, and some indescribable wildness were slowly fading away at this time, and then turned into a slightly unfamiliar hesitation and confusion, Then it fell into silence.

  Feng Ziying can even understand the reversal brought about by such a young mind after encountering countless shocks in a day, or this is the price that needs to be paid for growth.

   "Brother Feng, where is Uncle Wang..." Zuo Liangyu muttered for a long time, and finally opened his mouth.

"Erlang, as I said, what I promised will not change." Feng Ziying looked at Zuo Liangyu's immature face, which was already somewhat stern, "I have already agreed with Zhao Baihu, Mr. There is no problem there, Linqing prefectural capital may be a little more troublesome, but I greeted Deacon Wang of the Liang Gang and asked him to clear it up for me."

   "Then why did Zhao Baihu still..." Zuo Liangyu pursed his lips stubbornly.

"Erlang, you don't just have to admit your mistakes when you do something wrong." Feng Ziying sighed, "It's actually a good thing for Jin Yiwei to intervene, and it's also an explanation for Linqing Prefecture. The government will not be too probing, and Deacon Wang will take care of it, so basically there will be no major problems."

  Zuo Liangyu seems to understand, after all, he has never been in contact with the government, or people in the government at this level.

From last night to today, within twenty-four hours, his little brain has accepted too many things that he has never seen, heard, or thought about before, plus excitement, fear, and agitation. The intertwining had already made him exhausted, but he was not sleepy at all.

Wang Chaozuo's blank and helpless eyes before leaving made him realize that the problem must not be so simple, but he didn't know what to do. His only reliance was the elder brother Feng who regarded himself as a brother. Although this brother Feng is actually only half a year older than him.

Of course, Wang Chaozuo’s problem will not be solved so easily. Civil uprising has risen to bandit chaos. It's not that easy.

"Brother Feng, will Uncle Wang be okay?" Zuo Liangyu asked persistently, perhaps just wanting to explain to himself, his eyes fixed on Feng Ziying's face, as if as long as Feng Ziying said something, everything would be fine. question.

   "Erlang, there will be no major problems." Feng Ziying took a deep breath, "Even if there is, I will find a way to solve it. I believe you, Brother Feng."
