Recapture Qingxing County?

Both Lao Yi Cheng and Commander Cui had troubled expressions. They stopped at Deming Station simply because it was two hours away from Qingxing. Secondly and most importantly, the Tatar soldier's sword was missing, and Hong Jinglai's sword was missing.

They met.

How terrible are the Tatar soldiers? If we go to recapture Qingxing County now, aren't we just kidding with our own lives?

But Hong Jinglai was not afraid. There were thousands of Tatar soldiers and only a few dozen Shekovs at best.

They may not have conquered any counties at all, but simply obeyed local orders and collapsed without fighting. Now they may be roasting wild ducks at the mouth of the Tumen River.

Of course, dozens of people from Shekov came over and fought hard, killing Hong Jinglai and swallowing his idea of ​​​​steam engines.

But Hong Jinglai now has dozens of subordinates, and not a single one is a rookie. At worst, there are only a few of them as Tsarist Russian explorers. How can they afford to kill so many people?

"I have made up my mind!" Hong Jinglai waved to Li Zaichao.

"Choose two people who can ride a horse, preferably without night blindness."

"Han Yicheng, since you have discovered the Tatar affair, now you are going to send three beams of smoke and send a letter to Xianxing and Hanyang!"

"Captain Cui, as a member of the city guard, you should write the report immediately! Forget it, I will write it and you sign it!"

After saying that, Hong Jinglai took a pen and paper and reported to Hanyang in the name of Commander Cui.

Naturally, Cui Zhengji is now nominally holding firm in Xiongmuyi City waiting for reinforcements, while hundreds of Tatar cavalry forwards are wreaking havoc in the territory.

Da Yi solemnly boasted about Cui Zhengji's generosity and courage that he would devote himself to death, and expressed that he would live and die with Xiongmu City and protect the people of the area.

Furthermore, it was written that the Tatar situation was serious, and all parties could no longer communicate with each other, so they could only send dead soldiers out of the city. Report the news that the Tatar soldiers had conquered the entire county, the people were killed, and there were wars all over the place.

I sincerely request your Majesty, for the sake of the people who are guarding the territory of this city, to quickly send the ministers to recruit them and come to lead the troops to suppress them.

Cui Zhengji blushed after reading this letter. He had run away long ago and was holding on to nothing. Let alone holding on, he didn't even wait and see. It was true that he abandoned the people and ignored them.

"This... Xiongwu is afraid..." Of course Cui Zhengji wanted to brag in front of the king of Hanyang, but Xiongwu might have been destroyed long ago, and he did not dare to say that the city was still there.

"Don't worry, Xiongwu must be intact! Sign it!" Hong Jinglai grabbed Cui Zhengji's hand and signed.

Now I can’t leave even if I want to!

The smoke rose quickly in the inn, and within a few minutes, the smoke also rose in Luye, and later at Xindong, Zhuyu, Nanyun, Fuju and other stations, the smoke also lit up in sequence.

News of the Tatar attack will surely reach Hanyang within three days!

Cui Zhengji's letter will be the only one from a local official in Qingxing County. Based on this, Cui Zhengji can be regarded as a great achievement. In the future, when the whole county is restored, he will be able to become an undefeated beauty.

Name, you may be able to fill the post of county magistrate.

He asked Han Que (Yi Cheng) to pick out two of the best stage horses in the post, and ordered a Pu Bing and one of Li Zai Chao's men to quickly deliver the message to Xianxing. Li Zai Chao's subordinate was purely to monitor Pu Bing, for fear that this would happen.

The coward ran away.

The other thing is to write another letter and give it to Min Tingyue, informing him that the actual Tatar army only has less than a hundred horses. Hong Jinglai's men can be expelled from the country. With the miracle of recovery in vain, he asked him to quickly bring over his younger brother Min Jingyue.

The best thing is to serve as an ambassador to the north and south of Hamgyeong, and the last thing is to get a patrol envoy to the six towns of Hamhung and come to celebrate.

As long as he reaches Qingxing, he is guaranteed to be able to command Ruoding, first defeat Qingxing, then seize the mountain, and finally surround him on all sides, and attack Lushan. It will be useless to behead the troops, the Tatar army will be defeated, and there will be no chance of drowning those who are full of beans in the river.

Hong Jinglai himself had a great relationship with this Tatar invasion, and he had to find someone to cover it up and wipe his ass. Instead of begging Min Tingyue afterwards, it would be better to give the Min family a huge contribution now.

Needless to say, everyone can understand the relationship between this.

Even if it was known that Shekov was attracted by Hong Jinglai, Min Tinghye would still cover up for Hong Jinglai for this side benefit, and even help Hong Jinglai do some small work to mention it to others.

This letter cannot be given to anyone else, only Han Sanshi can be trusted completely. Let him rest his horse without resting, use Hong Jinglai's horse tag to recruit official horses along the way, and send it to Hanyang.

You must make it clear to Min Tinghuo carefully that as long as Min Jinghuo comes as an ambassador, it will be fine. He does not need to bring any governor's battalion or raise any money or food. Shekov can stay at the mouth of the Tumen River for at most ten or eight days.

Won't have to wait long.

All that's left is to catch young men along the street!

That's right! Is it realistic for fifty people to take over the entire county? At least a few hundred strong men are captured, and then the so-called army of two or three thousand is a bit like that.

As for the name, just say that they are the rebels and the local merchant protection group. Anyway, it is an old tradition to use the merchant merchants to suppress civil unrest. When Min Tinghye suppressed the rebellion of Zheng Shenshi, he used Huanghaidao.

Insurance provider.

And there is another advantage to this. Even if the expenses of three thousand people are paid, not a penny is actually spent. The money will all fall into the pockets of the Min family. Fighting wars means making money, which is a huge sum of money.

The people fleeing along the way were already in chaos, but before it was over, they suddenly saw strong men rushing in like wolves and tigers, and they arrested the strong men on sight, completely unreasonable.

Hong Jinglai stood on a cart and started shouting!

"This lord is in charge of Xiongwu! Now I am recruiting local soldiers, good men, and military officials to come with me to recapture Qingxing!"

There were only a few people who responded. Although the policy of deploying soldiers among the people existed, the soldiers were no different from the common people. They had not fought for more than a hundred years and had long since become serfs. Who would be willing to come out to serve as soldiers.

"Stop calling me sir, if we can recruit soldiers, Qingxing County Supervisor will not abandon the city and leave! Who doesn't know the serious crime of abandoning the county?"

Cui Zhengji was helpless. He had been on the trial committee for several years and had long seen through the reality of the whole county.

What can be done? The officers and generals have no will to persevere, and the soldiers have no desire to protect the land. Not to mention the rout if they encounter the enemy, now it is completely rout because of the rumors that the thieves are coming. Not only the officers and soldiers have lost their morale, but also the people have begun to lose their respect for the government.

Enough confidence.

The world is so corrupt!

Fortunately, Li Zaichao succeeded in catching Ding. Crowds of people along the way were jumping up and down, crying and screaming for their lives. But soon, Ding Zhuang, a young man of three hundred people, old and young, was captured and penned like pigs and sheep in the courtyard of the inn.

.

"One or two hundred more will be enough!" Looking at the old, weak, women and children begging and crying outside the inn, Hong Jinglai finally softened his heart.

"Sir, please let me go. I'm not a soldier! I'm a good citizen! There are seniors and juniors in the family. I don't want to die!"

A short, dark-skinned man knelt down in front of Hong Jinglai. He wanted to come up and grab Hong Jinglai's legs, but he didn't dare to reach out. He banged his head on the dirt and kowtowed, begging Hong Jinglai.
Chapter completed!
