Chapter 734 Asking for favors with a gesture

Hong Ahsi stopped the massacre in time, knowing in his heart that these sailors would be needed by the navy built by Admiral Chen Tianhua in the future.

"The order goes down. Anyone who surrenders will not be beaten or scolded at will, and the prisoners must be treated preferentially." Hong Asi issued the order. Everyone was stunned. Only Luo Longyun and a few people could understand it.

The military orders were overwhelming, and although the saltmen such as Ma Desan felt resentful, they did not dare to mistreat the prisoners.

It is said that the two battalions led by Na Hui came to reinforce Xiang Hong. As soon as they approached the mouth of the bay, they heard reports from scouts that General Xiang's troops had been defeated, the entire army was wiped out, and Xiang Hong himself was killed.

Na Hui was shocked. He had experienced the power of Hong Bantian's cavalry last time and quickly ordered a withdrawal, but it was too late.

Only two gunshots could be heard, "Boom, boom..." before and after Hong Bantian's overwhelming cavalry rushed out from both ends of the army. Thousands of salt soldiers in the middle rushed out with guns and swords, and all of a sudden the two Hui soldiers were killed.

Camp, surrounded by everyone.

Na Hui never expected this in his dreams, but Hong Bantian had already anticipated this and laid an ambush and a trap in advance.

"If you surrender your gun and don't kill, the rebels will give preferential treatment to the prisoners!"

"Na Hui, Hong Bantian respects you as a man. Surrender. Please don't resist inaction any more. It will only lead to death."

"..."

There were deafening shouts all around. Many officers and soldiers put down their weapons and surrendered with their hands on their heads before Commander Na Hui could speak.

As long as someone takes the initiative, they will follow the trend as fast as lightning, and the team of more than 1,300 people will surrender one after another like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.

Na Hui was desperate. He closed his eyes tightly and took out a pistol from his waist to commit suicide, but his men snatched it away.

He felt aggrieved. Last time he was attacked from behind by Hong Bantian, and this time he was ambushed again. How could his ancestors retain their dignity?



At this point, all the elite troops of the Nazan Army were gone. When the news spread back to the county, Zheng Daoming, the former magistrate, turned green with fright. Can the county still be defended?

After Nazan heard this, he was so angry that he vomited blood and couldn't help but slumped down on the chair. His whole body kept shaking and twitching, and his breathing was rapid. It was very worrying that he wouldn't be able to take a breath, so he passed away.

"What to do? What to do?"

Nazan finally recovered from the huge blow, and the previous indifference finally turned into bitter wine. Now the Yanding riots have spread like wildfire, and the bandit leader Hong Bantian has directed his troops towards Chongming County.

According to reports from scouts, if tens of thousands of people were to attack, what could he use to defend it?

He really regretted that he did not conscientiously build a strong army and change firearms. At this time, all the wealth, beauty, gold, silver and jewelry were just floating clouds. Could he have taken these things and run away?

I'm afraid that even if it's my own family, even Beijing Zijin City won't let me go, and I'm still a dead man.

The huge body was pacing back and forth in the hall, with beads of sweat rolling down his face. As his footprints fell in the hall, two marks gradually formed. Everyone in the hall held their breath, and no one dared to do so at this time.

To offend the Lord Admiral.

"Did Zhejiang Army Chen Tianhua call you back?"

"Report to the army, not yet!"

"You bastard, I sent you a telegram and urged you, saying that there is a huge emergency here and the county is about to be attacked. Doesn't he want to be the governor?" Nazan was furious.

"yes…"

After losing his temper and walking around in circles, Nazan finally remembered that there were still his counselors in the hall. These people ate his food, drank his food, used his food, and took his food. It was useless at this critical moment.

Woolen cloth?

"Are you all mute? What should we do now? Think of a way quickly. If you can't think of a way, before Hong Bantian cuts off my head, I will cut off your heads first!" Nazan roared.

Everyone shuddered immediately. In addition to his ability to make money, this admiral was unparalleled in the world. He also did what he said when it came to cutting off people's heads. Immediately, they all started talking and came up with bad ideas.

What about recruiting troops to reorganize a strong army, and what about dividing the country and recruiting bandit leaders?

There were divergent opinions in the main hall, and a group of counselors even quarreled with each other, all of them blushing and emphasizing that what they said was the right way.

But Nazan is not stupid. He knows these bullshit ideas as soon as he hears them. None of them are reliable. Recruiting troops and reorganizing a strong army is a joke. The two battalions of strong soldiers that I worked so hard to manage were destroyed without even taking a chance. This was done in a hurry.

A bunch of sailors have no use except wasting money.

After dividing the country and recruiting the bandit leader, Hong Bantian now has the victory in hand. If he kills me and has everything, will he surrender to me?

Nazan glanced around the main hall with fierce eyes, and finally found a person who was bowing his head in deep thought, but it was his most valued Master Ge, Ge Sichen.

"Master Ge, don't you have any good ideas?" he asked gloomily.

When everyone heard that the Admiral had set his sights on Ge Sichen, they immediately closed their mouths and looked at the chief master to see what good ideas he could come up with.

Ge Sichen raised his head and said with a mournful face: "Sir, what you just said is that water far away cannot save the fire close by. Based on someone's idea, the current plan is to ask for help!"

"Asking for help?" Na Zan said: "Who can I ask for help from? I didn't listen to your instructions and sent a telegram to Chen Tianhua, but he didn't reply. It's like nothing happened!"

"Sir, with all due respect, it is time for us to beg others to send troops, and we must be begging for help. In my opinion, before the county town is besieged by floods for half a day, the military gate should immediately leave the city and go to Hangzhou City, or Meiguang City.

Go to Xincheng and find Chen Tianhua and request him face to face. If you do this to Corporal Xian, he won't be able to get past him!" Ge Sixen said with certainty.

"That's right!" Nazan's eyes lit up.

In fact, Ge Sichen mentioned it a few days ago and asked Nazan to go there in person and bring gifts to visit Chen Tianhua.

But Nazan couldn't do it because he was a relative of the emperor and a relative of the royal family. He couldn't lower his dignity to ask for help. This was equivalent to killing him.

This Manchu people call it a show, a disciple of the Eight Banners, go and plead with a Han official?

It’s really about saving face and suffering!

Now that death was imminent, Nazan had to reconsider.

"Army, at one moment and another, Chen Tianhua has powerful soldiers and generals who are all veterans of the war. Unlike our Chongming Navy, who have never been on the battlefield and are tied up when a fight begins. We changed to Zhejiang

Veterans like these on the battlefield will definitely succeed immediately. Besides, he is the governor of Chongming. As long as you are willing to ask for help, I guess Chen Tianhua will definitely send troops to help." Ge Sichen said.

"But this Chen Tianhua is a well-known big profiteer. He can't afford to start early without profit. Why should he send troops to help me?" Nazan said hesitantly.

Ge Sichen couldn't laugh or cry after hearing this, "Hey, sir, you are begging Chen Tianhua to send troops in vain. Of course he is not willing to do it. But if you are willing to pay the price, as long as the price is big enough, then why is Chen Tianhua not willing? As long as the warlord is willing to support it.

After paying a departure fee, casualty pensions, etc., Chen Tianhua will definitely send troops over. By then, he will have the money and secure his position as the governor of Chongming, while we will exterminate the bandits, make a deal with the peak, and keep it.
