Under the protection of Uncle Erzhu, the mountain commander rode his horse to the military camp stationed near the state capital.
Because the incident happened too suddenly, coupled with the poor transmission of government orders at this time.
Therefore, after Ruian County was raided by pirates, the military camp stationed near the state capital showed no response.
In the eyes of the court officials, the problem caused by sea bandits was nothing more than scabies. Compared with the strong rise of the Mongol and Tuzhen tribes faced by the court's frontier soldiers in the frontier fortress, it was really nothing to mention.
Among all the princes in the court, Zhang Julu, the chief minister of the court, was probably the only one who paid enough attention to the problem of pirates.
However, due to Zhang Julu's implementation of reforms, he offended many officials in the court to a great extent and offended the interests of landlords all over the world.
If at this time, he devotes his energy to dealing with the pirates, some short-sighted princes in the court will take the opportunity to attack him.
Therefore, the matter was put on hold again and again, until now the pirates were so rampant that they attacked Ruian County.
With Zhang Julu's ability as the first assistant, he did not do nothing to deal with the pirate troubles.
By transferring Wang Mingyang to the post of prefect in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, his meaning was already very clear.
However, the timing chosen by the pirates was really tricky. The prefect Wang Mingyang went to Beijing to report on his duties, and the Ruian County boss Chen Sizhi left office.
This is undoubtedly the best opportunity.
"Open the door, open the door!"
"I am Tang Ruocheng, the top three Jinshi of the Xuanren Dynasty. I have an order from the prefect, Wang Shouren, to open the door quickly!"
Tang Ruocheng looked at the sentry guarding near the military camp and said loudly.
The soldier looked at Tang Ruocheng warily and refused to open the door and put it in.
It wasn't until the team leader who received the notification came here and saw that the person coming was none other than Tang Ruocheng, the headmaster of Luyang Academy, that he decided to let him go!
"It's Mr. Tang, the mountain chief of Luyang Academy. I saw that he had been with the prefect. At that time, Mr. Tang also brought some people to the military camp to teach for a few days!"
"It is said that scholars have high standards and low skills, and they look down on our warriors as soldiers."
"Mr. Tang is an exception!" With that said, the soldiers put Tang Ruocheng and others into the military camp.
Under the leadership of Xiao Bing, Tang Ruocheng quickly met the generals of the state garrison, all of whom commanded Cao Minde.
"This is the order from the magistrate. I hope the general can listen to my arrangements!"
Tang Ruocheng stroked his beard, looked at the garrison general, and said to the commander, Cao Minde.
After hearing what Tang Ruocheng said, Cao Minde, the general commander, took a closer look at the message on the oracle, with a look of embarrassment on his face.
Although he confirmed that the letter was indeed from the prefect Wang Shouren, the words also had the meaning of Zhang Julu, the chief minister of the dynasty.
But with just a handwriting, he really didn't dare to take too many actions.
"General Cao, how are you?" Tang Ruocheng saw Cao Minde's entanglement and contradiction and asked.
"Mr. Tang, please forgive me for not being able to obey my orders."
"Although it is true that the order in your hands belongs to the prefect, the prefect was also granted the power to control the mobilization of soldiers and horses by the imperial court years ago!"
"But the general has not seen the prefect himself, nor has he seen the tiger talisman needed to mobilize the army."
"If the general can easily mobilize his troops to fight the pirates, even if the general can defeat the pirates and win the battle!"
"But the general is also afraid that a civil servant will read the book, which will cost the general's life!"
Cao Minde sighed, and he could only say to Tang Ruocheng.
However, after hearing what Cao Minde said, Tang Ruocheng's expression did not change at all.
He seemed to have expected what Cao Minde would say.
However, the mountain chief Tang Ruocheng was amazed at Huang Tinghui's wisdom and intelligence.
Because Huang Tinghui seemed to have a countermeasure for his doubts about Cao Minde.
…
The inspection master finally gathered his troops, and together with Huang Tinghui and some villagers from Huangjia Village, set off towards Ruian County.
At this time, there were still many teachers and students from Luyang Academy, and Zhang Cheng's brothers gathered the patrol troops and horses that had been dismissed by the new county master in Ruian County.
Most of these soldiers and horses have been systematically trained, and their combat effectiveness is naturally much stronger than that of ordinary people.
Therefore, they can play a huge role in the battle against pirates.
"Brother Hui, do you think Mr. Tang can persuade the commander of the capital?"
"If you can't persuade the capital commander, will your method still work?"
Zhang Cheng asked with some confusion.
"Don't worry. As a military general, what you fear most in Dasheng Kingdom is the revenge from civil servants."
"The commander-in-chief of the capital already had conflicts with some high-ranking local officials in the state capital. Now he can't wait to join the command of the prefect."
"As long as it doesn't exceed his authority, he will naturally turn a blind eye."
"And in extraordinary times, do extraordinary things."
"I think Commander-in-Chief is not so stupid that he cannot make changes."
"Even if the commander is stubborn, I still have a backup plan, but the success rate of this backup plan may be much lower!"
"We have done everything we can, and all that is left is to do our best and obey fate!"
At this point, Huang Tinghui was unwilling to say any more.
Things have been arranged at this point, as to whether these pirates can be dealt with in one go.
It all depends on destiny!
However, Huang Tinghui believes that destiny will not stand on these pirates.
"It is said that the minds of scholars are the smartest. I agree with this!"
"But if I want to say that I have ever seen the smartest scholar, you must be Tinghui!"
Zhang Cheng said to Huang Tinghui from the bottom of his heart.
"Brother Zhang is overly praised!"
"There are so many smart scholars in the world, and there are many smarter than Tinghui."
"Everything Tinghui did today was just to avenge the people of Ruian County!"
"Today, none of these beasts can escape!"
Huang Tinghui gritted his teeth, almost breaking his teeth.
"Don't worry, Brother Hui, they can't escape!"
"I want to build these bastards into Jingguan one by one!"
"Only in this way can I eliminate the hatred in my heart." Zhang Cheng also said fiercely.
Just when Huang Tinghui, Zhang Cheng and others led this inspection team of only one to two hundred people and the rural soldiers rushed to Ruian County.
The patrol team in the city, which was still fighting with the pirates, was complaining endlessly.
"Damn, the attack of these pirates is really too strong!"
"If there are no reinforcements, I will be completely doomed today!" Looking at the inexhaustible pirates surrounding the mansion, the inspector felt his scalp numb.
After these pirates massacred the city yesterday, their troops also gathered.
Therefore, even if you guard a tall house, it is easy to defend but difficult to attack.
It was only a matter of time before they were attacked by pirates.
"Little bastard, why did you come here?"
"I don't know how I can explain to your father if you run away with that yellow boy and you die here."
Xu Wei looked at Li Zisong, shook his head and said.
As for Li Zisong, he didn't have the slightest fear or regret. He looked at Xu Wei and said, "Teacher, don't worry!"
"Brother will come to save us!"
At this moment, Li Zisong was more convinced than Xu Wei.
