Chapter 43: The Wicked General

However, when Wang Juren saw that General Meng's attitude was a little cold, he was still polite and said with courage:

“It’s below.↖”

General Meng took out a document from his arms, and said in a faint slight way, as if the repeater had read:

"In the year of the Gengzi, Wang Zhongming, a juren, was very talented, and was not afraid of difficulties, and was loyal to the country and turned the tide. Therefore, he was appointed as the magistrate of the county."

After finishing reading, General Meng said lightly:

"Congratulations to Magistrate Wang. This document was taken down by me from the state. From now on, we will live and die with Shangqiang. I hope everyone can work together and make more convenient!"

Juren Wang, Oh, no, Magistrate Wang was already smiling happily at this time:

"General Meng is so kind."

**

However, County Magistrate Wang didn't know that after the copy he wrote a few days ago was sent out in a hurry, it could be said that it caused a great shock in the prefecture. It was originally several hundred miles away from the coastline, but it was originally the core hinterland and a safe area, and it was foolproof. How could I know that the East Pirates would go up the river and even be attacked here?

The first reaction at the moment was to mobilize troops, but at this time the troops were concentrated on the coast, and there was no troops to adjust for a moment. At the same time, he could only piece together such a cavalry.

The position of the magistrate of Shangqiang County is also a difficult problem. At that time, the magistrate immediately wanted to transfer a person who was mature and knowledgeable about military affairs to guard Shangqiang County. There must be someone in his heart. He was still following his usual ideas how to deal with a series of battles made by his subordinates around the empty seat of Shangqiang County. After all, it is recognized as a fat person.

However, the prefect was surprised to find that the best candidate in his mind was actually "saying" and staying in the door!!

Even after the news of Shangqiang County was released, his private home was deserted. There was no one else. Not to mention anything else, when Zhou County Magistrate competed for Shangqiang County Magistrate's position, he had eight competitors!

-----------You know that at the same time, there are only six people who have turned the highest record of Miss Fangfang, the top brand of "Colorful Nightclub".

That period was the sweetest time since the prefect took office. None of them, it was a gift that was lenient. He counted the money until he was cramped. He was so crowded. So he had been looking forward to the time when Shangqiang County was in short supply again. But things were different and everything was gone. When this moment finally came, the reality was so cold and cruel...

Of course, the prefect is also an old man, and he quickly understood the truth. Youdao is one time and another, and Youdao is an official for thousands of miles, just for wealth. Why was the position of Shangqiang County magistrate so popular before? It was because Shangqiang County was rich, so naturally it was rich. And it was a superior county, with a population of twice as high as that of lower-level counties, with enough oil and water, and great power. If you go there to be an official, you will be called a small prefect.

But now, even the county pirates in the East Sea have been broken, and they have probably robbed them. So there is nothing to do with money!

This first made the major candidates' thoughts as hot as fire.

The news that came next shocked them even more. Why is Shangqiang County now in a vacant position?

It turned out that the East China Pirates riots, and even the county government was surrounded and burned. Not to mention the whole county magistrate's family, even the assistant officials and others died! This is too much! Who can guarantee that such a tragedy will not happen again after taking office?

At this time, Shangqiang County was not only poor, but also had to face the terrifying danger of the whole family's death after taking office. How could this be an official? I would rather go to jail!

Therefore, the prefect does not look at the problem from a dialectical but progressive perspective. Instead, he has been staying for two or three years to analyze this matter, and there will definitely be a judgment error. In fact, those who are waiting to be vacant now would rather give gifts and pass the joints than behead them to Shangqiang County, let alone take the initiative to ask for their own lives.

In desperation, the prefect could only stick to his own opinions, start from public spirit, take the initiative to surrender to the nobles to visit the official he liked, and tell him earnestly about his values ​​of him, the full friendship between the two, the deep grace of knowing each other, and how dangerous the situation in Shangqiang County was at this time, how the people were in dire straits, how they hoped that he would take office to save him... How could he have high hopes for him to turn the tide.

And then...and...

There is nothing more!

It would be fine if the prefect didn't go. As soon as he went, he told the candidate how Shangqiang's people were in dire straits. The official he valued was probably after a series of extremely complicated psychological struggles that night, then hugged his beautiful wife, looked at his young son, gritted his teeth, and thought he would forget it, but his beautiful wife and young son could not push them into the fire pit.

So, he fled with his family and abandoned his official position overnight...

His escape made the magistrate a little unable to get out of Taiwan, and his subordinates were a little dissatisfied. It was obviously the matter of the Ministry of Personnel when the county magistrate Shangqiang was missing. Wouldn't you push this matter to him and ask him to send a surrender? Why do you have to force yourself and these people to die?

But the prefect also has his difficulties. If this matter is pushed to the Ministry of Personnel, the administrative agencies above will be slow to do things, and there will be war everywhere at this time, so they will definitely be very busy. It will take at least half a year to send a new magistrate to come. Under normal circumstances, if the magistrate is in a missed accident, such as dying from the yamen, there will naturally be a county magistrate to temporarily replace him. Well, even if the magistrate has an accident, the county magistrate will still be the master!

However, Shangqiang County was taken down! If the Ministry of Personnel sent people to come down and Shangqiang County was completely in chaos during the gap in the past six months, then the situation would be ruined. When the exam was applied, wouldn’t it be the last to hit the prefect?

Therefore, the prefect was helpless. He sighed and read the report written by Juren Wang, he found his resume and looked at it. He felt that he was quite eye-catching. After all, he was a Juren, so he would not be too outrageous in his promotion. So he could only pinch his nose and accept it. He comforted himself that there was still someone who was willing to come out to take charge and appointed him as a magistrate.

As for the rules of becoming an official in another place, I don’t care about so many rules. When the war is settled and he is transferred away, the most important thing now is to stabilize the situation of Shangqiang County, and we must protect the county town!

**

Next, General Meng asked Shangqiang County carefully about the configuration of troops, the number of soldiers in the number of soldiers, and his face looked even more ugly. It seemed that the situation at this time was much worse than he expected.

After the subsequent banquet, General Meng didn't say much, just like a dull gourd. Someone else said something. He only said half of the time, and his alcohol tolerance seemed to be very poor. After drinking a few drinks, he was drunk and vomited out directly, making the table messy. People next to him hurriedly came up to support him, and then asked his personal soldiers to take him down to rest.

And while being helped to leave the seat, something even more shocking happened. General Meng actually leaned against his own soldiers and cried out loud. He sobbed:

"I regret it, I regret it..."

When everyone saw this situation, they looked at each other and thought to themselves why the imperial court sent such a pustule. However, it was not convenient to say it in person.

About one or two days later, there were good things and acquaintances among the cavalry, and then the whole story was revealed:

It turned out that the cavalry that came to assist Shangqiang County at this time was originally pieced together. It was sent out during the training and was divided into three parts:

The most seven or eight hundred people were brought by Meng Zhusheng.

The second was the former Victory Army led by Gong Duwei Gong. At this time, there were the largest number of people, with a total of six hundred people.

Finally, it was led by Feng Heng, the commander of the Yum Army, with about 400 people.

Meng Zhusheng looked very pussy, so why could he lead this cavalry? But it was because his family background was a general, and he sent him down to the gilded one. If he had the skills under his command, Xiao Meng was still a trick, and he was not a completely cowardly, but at least he was a qualified cavalry.

However, Xiao Meng's personality probably has a lot to do with his father's excessive suppression when he was young. He seems cowardly, autistic, and not good at socializing with others. In fact, he usually manages this army and relies on four generals. These four generals are old, familiar with people, and have big faces. When they are having a drink and having sex, they can get money. They have to play hard fighting with knives, so they can barely grasp these people.

However, not long ago, when Meng Zhusheng was rushing outside Shangqiang County, the order was very unpopular.

Because the officers below are all fighting old wars, they know that Mercedes-Benz is at the end of their strength and their horsepower is exhausted. At this time, they are like dying. According to the usual performance of this Commander Meng, it is really hard to convince people. They can give you face, but now they still jump down even though they know the fire pit? These military men don’t care about the above orders!

Therefore, the two sides were in a stalemate at that time. Meng Zhusheng probably read too many military books, and he wanted to kill someone to establish his authority in anger!

Tsk tsk, this murder and establish authority also requires the occasion, and it varies from person to person. You are a commander who has no morale to the army at all. Wouldn't you add fuel to the fire at this time? Is it counterproductive?

Therefore, he suddenly fell into a deadlock. At this time, Meng Zhusheng also felt that it was difficult to get on the verge of a tiger. If this matter cannot be resolved smoothly, he would obviously not be able to stay here.

Finally, the generals who followed Meng Zhusheng also knew that there was only one way to resolve the current deadlock. They protected Meng Zhusheng and dismounted, then replaced them with iron armor, and then started to form a charge formation with two or three hundred cavalry who could still command.

In a moment, I suddenly got the pain of the group of people who were clamoring.

You know, the coach's leader said "fight with me" and the coach's order "fight with me" are completely different things.

At least in name, Meng Zhusheng is also their leader. If Meng Zhusheng leads people to fight and the rest of the people do not follow, the consequences will be very serious. Even if it is a big deal, the person who loses his head will definitely be a thorn in trouble.

More importantly, Dongxia also has regulations. Once the main generals rushed in front and died in battle, while the other generals present were still alive, they did not make any major contributions (such as killing enemies with the same position), they would behead the head coach for being buried with them. Even if the assassin was killed on the spot, they would always bend them to the end and go back to their hometown to farm.

The situation was very obvious at that time. Meng Zhusheng rushed down with seven or eight hundred people around him, and he would die. If he died here in battle, the survivors would definitely be questioned and investigated by the above, asking where you were when the head coach died in battle?

If Feng Heng and Gong Yi were still huddled behind, then they would definitely be able to answer: I am cheering for the commander/I am applauding the commander/We have differences with the commander, so we asked him to sell his blood.

In this case, it goes without saying that the Military Law Department will definitely make their heads fall to the ground. Not only that, even their family members and relatives will be demoted to slaves and sold, and all the sold silver will be sent to the Meng family.

Therefore, when Meng Zhusheng fought, the rest of the people also knew that they were powerful and had to fight.

However, in order to break the death situation at that time, Meng Zhusheng also paid a very heavy price. As the pioneer, he must have suffered the most casualties, even reaching 60% to 70%, and the injured were all trusted and direct descendants. In order to cover him, three of the four generals around him died, and one remaining was seriously injured.

After this battle, the Meng family's strength in this cavalry suddenly dropped to the lowest point.

What's even more terrible is that after they rushed into the city, they would quickly figure out the situation in Shangqiang County, and naturally they would find that the situation in Shangqiang County was quite strange at that time, not like Meng Zhusheng imagined that it was about to collapse. That is to say, after they came here, they could hide around the battlefield and sit patiently on the mountain to watch the tiger fight. While drinking some water for the tired horses, feeding some bean cakes, fried dough sticks, eggs and other hard materials, letting them rest and rest, and while also finding the best fighter to capture.

As long as there is an hour of buffering time, the horse's horsepower can recover by about 60%. If the entire army attacks at that time, no matter the impact force or something, it will be two or three times the previous one. It is even more impossible for any horsepower to be exhausted and eventually fall into a siege!

After discovering this, all the soldiers were very angry and spread it to everyone's knowledge. They kept saying "one general is incompetent and killed the three armies" all the time. Commander Meng's psychological quality was poor, and he was autistic and cowardly. After discovering the truth, even he himself doubted himself and could not face the fact that the four loyal generals died. He looked a little dazed every day, feeling like he killed these loyal people.

So he, a big man, cried out after getting drunk, but in fact he was filled with strong sadness and loss of composure, and of course he also had doubled his self-blame. In today's terms, what he needed most was an excellent psychologist.

***

It was probably the third day after the cavalry entered the city, Lin Fengjin was collecting and analyzing the information outside the city. As a result, the butler of the Ji family strode in and sighed:

"Young Master, you guy! Something big happened?"

Lin Fengjin raised his eyebrows and said:

"What big thing happened?"

Butler Ji said with a bitter face:

"Just just now, the people from the wing army came to the mansion to find someone, saying that the new military men were also placed on the school ground. Didn't you bring the horse to take care of the horse and put it there? As a result, the military men looked at it and looked up and held it directly! Someone came to stop him and waited on the horse with a whip. Your guard was furious after hearing this and rushed over. Alas! The men under your command all had a hot personality. When they met the group of Qiu Bas, something big might happen!"

After hearing this, Lin Fengjin smiled and said:

"Oh, so that's it, I'll go and have a look."

Butler Ji thought to himself, why can you laugh? These military men are all fearless people. It would be a disaster for them to anger them, but they dare not say it out loud, so they had to follow them in a hurry.

The temporary county government is not far from the school ground. After about half a cup of tea, Lin Fengjin saw from a distance that his horse had been led out by a group of military men, constantly stroking and watching, all of them shining. The deputy manager in the horse supervision was chasing a big man and begging:

"Mr. Jun, I can't do it, really can't do it. This is the one who led the subordinates of Mr. Lin from the Ji family who came to foster us, not the villain!"

The man was probably bored by hearing this and shouted angrily:

"Gengkengkengkengkeng, it is his honor to be able to fall in love with his horse! My brothers rushed for 400 miles in three days to rescue you thieves, and they ran into the East Pirates' camp without even drinking water. Hundreds of people died. Shouldn't they give some compensation? I'll talk about it here again, thinking that my steel knife is a vegetarian!?"

Just as the man finished speaking, a slightly stiff voice came from beside him:

"Just because you want to ride my horse? Are you worthy?"

The man from Zhao was furious after hearing this. He rolled up his sleeves and stood up. He turned his head and looked over. He immediately realized that the man was standing with his back to the sun. The sun was dazzling and he couldn't see his face clearly for a while, but it did not prevent him from cursing:

"Whose crotch is broken, and your broken jb thing is exposed, why is grandpa not worthy of riding your horse?"

As soon as the Zhao family started to curse, the soldiers present immediately caught sight of each other and gathered together, even pulling out half of the steel knife on their waists as if they were demonstrating!

The man sneered, and suddenly took out a long bow from behind, bent his bow and shot it! It was so fast that it was so fast that it was lightning.

After the arrow was shot out, it shot into the heart of the Zhao family man with a "bang". However, the arrow should have been broken, and it was like this. The Zhao family man felt a severe pain in his chest, and suddenly staggered backwards and leaned against the wall next to him.

Immediately afterwards, the man's arrows came out like the wind, and five arrows were shot in a row. He heard a series of crisp sounds of "aggressive" sounds. The first arrow shot into the left ear of the Zhao family man, the second arrow shot into his right ear, the third arrow shot through his left armpit, the fourth arrow shot through his right armpit, and the fifth arrow shot into the center of his crotch, close to the two shaking things below...

As soon as these five arrows were released, the fierce man Zhao's family felt so uncomfortable that his chest was so painful that he suspected that his ribs might have broken and he could not even exudate his breath. Secondly, he was tied to the wall next to him by the five arrows. He was like a specimen and could not move at all. He couldn't catch it in one breath, but his head tilted and he fell into a coma.

Immediately afterwards, the person who came to provoke waved his hand and saw a dozen people rushing out from behind him. They bent their bows and arrows and shot them at the unlucky Zhao family. The arrows suddenly fell like rain. The sound of arrows shooting into the wooden boards was endless, and finally the word "death" was shot next to them.

The soldiers next to them all opened their mouths wide, holding them stunned, and even dazzled, and they almost couldn't believe their eyes. The funniest thing was that there was a soldier who was holding a bowl of noodles and eating them hard. After watching the other party's shooting skills, the bowl of noodles in his hand was tilted and half of them were poured out. However, the man had no feeling at all.

It would be fine if it were ordinary people, especially these fighting soldiers, who knew the power of these people, especially the word "death" that ejaculated not only showed superb shooting skills, but also showed the rare tacit understanding of these people.

The man looked at the dazed military men and said proudly:

"If you want our horse, you can take my arrow and never get killed. Of course, you will serve it with both hands, but if you don't have this ability, you will get as far as you go!"

Who are these military men present? They are all fierce, domineering and arrogant men with blood on the blade. Who has the idle intention to reason with you? However, these military men on the school are not even more fierce, because they have already felt a momentum from the people, a momentum that is more domineering and arrogant than them!
