"This~~? How is this possible? General Liu is an unparalleled hero. Even if he borrows ten courages from his students, students, students, would not dare! General Liu, you, you better not make such a joke with your students!"
Mr. Huang was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he kept trembling and saluting!
"Haha!" Liu Ruyi smiled slightly, looked into Mr. Huang's eyes and said, "I hope so!"
After Liu Ruyi finished speaking, he suddenly patted Mr. Huang's shoulder hard, waved to the guards behind him, and strode towards the prefect's Yamen!
Mr. Huang was completely unprepared. His body was unsteady and he almost fell to the ground! He stared blankly at the soldiers filing in, and lowered his head respectfully, but his two rows of yellow teeth were clenched tightly.
!
……………………
The Dezhou Magistrate's Office occupies a large area and is divided into three entrances and three exits.
On the periphery of the first floor are the public rooms of the yamen and various scribes. On weekdays, the prefect reviews cases and works here. On the second floor, there is a small garden, and the architectural layout is obviously much more refined. This is the prefect's residence.
In the study room, only people with a certain status can come here and be summoned by the prefect! The third floor is the inner courtyard of the prefect. It is a personal privacy area and outsiders are not allowed to enter!
At this time, Yan Jizu was going to meet Liu Ruyi in the study room in the middle courtyard on the second floor!
It was early in the morning and the weather was very cold. The clerks in the yamen in the front yard had not yet gone to work. The entire yamen was very quiet. Liu Ruyi and his party soon arrived at the entrance to the middle courtyard!
But there are dozens of elite soldiers guarding it!
"General Liu, this is where the governor is stationed! Please ask General Liu to bring only twenty soldiers in!" The gatekeeper is a member of the Qianhu family under Chen Guowei. He is less than thirty years old, tall, strong, and vigorous, with a waist
There was a silver saber hanging on it, and it stopped coldly in front of Liu Ruyi and his party!
"You bitch, you're blind! It's the governor who wants to meet our general, why don't you get out of the way!" How could Xiao Liu'er ignore the cold faces of these thousands of households? He cursed and wanted to rush.
Go forward and take action!
But Liu Ruyi stretched out her hand to stop Xiao Liuer, took out a bag of golden beans from her arms, stepped forward and handed it to the hands of the thousands of households, and said with a smile: "Brother, since you know who I am, please do me a favor.
ah!"
The Qianhu family was stunned. He obviously did not expect that Liu Ruyi, who was considered arrogant and domineering by others, would be so polite. He instinctively opened the small pocket and took a look. Suddenly, the golden light dazzled his eyes!
"Haha! Although Mr. Liu is a rough man, he also knows that it is not easy for the brothers! Let me distribute these yellow and white things to the sons and daughters to buy some wine. They can be regarded as a meeting gift for me, Mr. Liu!" Liu Ruyi!
He looked at these thousands of households with a smile!
"Liu, General Liu, it's not that I don't give you face because of my humble position! It's just that this is an order from above! I'm humble in my position, and there's nothing I can do about it!" People are short-tongued and soft-handed, and these thousands of households are holding on to this one tightly.
The golden beans are loosened a lot by the words!
Liu Ruyi climbed up from the lowest level of the military, so he naturally knows the difficulties of these low-level officers!
The current Ming Dynasty is suffering from natural and man-made disasters and the economy is depressed. Like this Qianhu household in front of him, he is a soldier under Chen Guowei. He does not have a military camp. His pure income can only be obtained by drinking the blood of soldiers, unless he has other ways.
, Otherwise, if you can earn one thousand taels a year, you would be thankful!
The Ming Dynasty's current finances are extremely difficult to make ends meet. It is extremely rare to be able to pay wages twice a year. And according to Chen Guowei's temperament, he is afraid that he will still take a big share. This will actually fall on these thousands of households.
The silver coins in my hand will be discounted by another 35%!
Six hundred and fifty taels, excluding those to support the family, those left for wives and children, and those for favor expenses, in the end, what is left in the hands of these thousands of households, I am afraid it would be good to have fifty taels!
What is money?
To paraphrase a famous advertising slogan from later generations, ‘Without sound, no matter how good the play is, it won’t work!’ In the same way, without money, even if you are Pan An, you may not be able to keep your wife and children!
"Brother, I haven't asked you for your surname yet! We are all brothers from Shandong. From now on, Liu will need more support from his brothers!" Liu Ruyi looked into his eyes, as if she wanted to see through him!
"It's a humble position, it's a humble position, Qiu Man, you can't be like General Liu!" Qianhu Qiu Man lowered his head respectfully, obviously a little flattered, but his big hands held the golden bean a little tighter!
"Haha! Qiu Qianhu is too modest!" Liu Ruyi said with a smile, "These brothers are all Liu's personal soldiers, so why don't you ask Brother Qiu to do it for your convenience! In the future, if Brother Qiu is of any use to Liu, he only needs to
Just come to Caishi Town and find me!"
"General Liu, no, it's not that I don't want to give you face! In fact, because this is a strict order from above, I can't do anything about it! Let's do this!" Qiu Man gritted his teeth, "General Liu, you, bring a hundred people in
, I’ll hide it from you! No matter how much, no matter how much, there’s nothing I can do!”
Liu Ruyi nodded slightly. One hundred people were enough to deal with emergencies! Although Chen Guowei wanted to kill him, his men were not monolithic!
"So, thank you Brother Qiu! Haha, Liu will go to meet the governor first. When I have time in the afternoon, I will treat you to a drink!" Liu Ruyi cupped her hand and whispered a few words into Xiao Liu'er's ear.
Er nodded and quickly ran to the rear to give orders.
"Thank you, General Liu, for your understanding. Thank you, General Liu, for your understanding, little brother!" Although Qiu Man was much older than Liu Ruyi, the little brother's words were so natural. He quickly ordered the soldiers around him to open the courtyard door and respectfully greet Liu Ruyi.
Make way!
Liu Ruyi walked into the courtyard with a smile, but her face instantly turned cold. She called to Xiao Liu'er and said, "Be careful, we should be here!"
……………………
At this time, Mr. Huang accompanied Chen Guowei and quickly walked to the courtyard gate. Chen Guowei glanced at the soldiers not far away and said to Qiu Man in a cold voice: "Has Liu Ruyi gone in?"
Qiu Man was startled and said hurriedly: "We've already gone in! His humble position stopped all his soldiers!"
Chen Guowei had no expression on his face and lowered his voice in Qiu Man's ear: "Guard this door carefully! If anyone dares to break in, he will be killed without mercy!"
Seeing that Qiu Man was still in a daze, Chen Guowei immediately put on a smile and said: "Xiao Qiu, your time with me is not short! Work hard! After today, I will promote you to a guerrilla officer!"
"Eh? Yes!" Qiu Man quickly nodded happily, but he was surprised in his heart. What happened today? First he got rich, and then he got promoted. Could it be that his good luck has come?
Chen Guowei led Mr. Huang quickly into the courtyard. After a moment, a black man with a muddy face crawled out from the grass on the side, "Sir, they are already here!"
Chen Guowei turned his head and glanced at Mr. Huang. Mr. Huang nodded vigorously. Chen Guowei gritted his teeth and said, "Mom, if you are not poisonous, you will not be a husband! Send the signal and take action!!!"
"yes!"
For a moment, two shrill arrows shot through the air. In an instant, the garden in front was filled with noise, and there were shouts of death everywhere!
Chen Guowei and Mr. Huang looked at each other and smiled at the same time, "Damn it, little bastard, I'll see how you die this time!"
……………………
In the open space in the center of the garden, seven or eight hundred people poured out from all around, holding various blades, like a pack of hungry wolves, rushing towards Liu Ruyi and his party!
"Young master, what should I do? There are too many people here! Otherwise, let's take a step back first!" Xiao Liu'er didn't expect that Chen Guowei would spend such a large amount of money. He was afraid that Liu Ruyi would be injured, so he wanted to protect Liu Ruyi.
Rush back to the courtyard gate just now!
"Why are you panicking?" Liu Ruyi looked at the officers and soldiers who were already fighting with the soldiers in front, with a sneer at the corner of his mouth, "It's better to jump out! Just kill them all at once! Liu'er, hurry up, you take two
Ten people, occupy that rockery first! For the rest of the brothers, the spearmen are in front and the cannon soldiers are behind. Let me stabilize the situation first!"
"Yes!" All the soldiers responded in unison, quickly protecting Liu Ruyi, heading towards the rockery on the east side, fighting and retreating!
At this time, the soldiers outside the courtyard also heard the noise and rushed towards the courtyard gate like crazy. Chen Guowei was shocked and shouted loudly to the officers and soldiers: "Quick! Charge up quickly! Whoever cuts off Liu Ruyi's dog head will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver."
, promoted to the third level! Quickly, destroy them!"
The officers and soldiers dispatched by Chen Guowei this time were obviously elite, all with bright swords and armor, and their actions were orderly! When they heard Chen Guowei's heavy reward, they felt like they had been given blood, and they rushed towards the edge of the rockery with all their lives.
Pounce!
However, the one hundred soldiers under Liu Ruyi's command, although small in number, were all elites in hundreds of battles. They were warriors who had truly experienced the test of the Qing army. They took advantage of the favorable high terrain beside the rockery to constantly fight against the officers and soldiers under Chen Guowei's command.
Tangled together!
The sound of gunshots and shouts of killing were overwhelming!
After watching for nearly a quarter of an hour, but still unable to win, Chen Guowei couldn't help but become a little anxious, and hurriedly said to Mr. Huang on the side: "This little bastard is so difficult! What should we do now?"
Mr. Huang is just a scholar who can make small conspiracies and scheme against individuals. This is his strength. However, he has never seen such a bloody scene, and he never thought that Liu Ruyi's combat power would be so amazing. He hurriedly reassured: "
Mr. Chen, don’t panic now! We must capture them quickly before their reinforcements come in! But, but, this, why does this little bastard have so many people around him? Didn’t he say there were only twenty people?
?”
Chen Guowei was stunned, right! Aren't there twenty people? There are more than a hundred people here. What the hell is going on? Could it be, could it be that Qiu Man?
Chen Guowei opened his eyes fiercely. This matter was too big. Except for a few trusted officers who took action, he did not leak the news. And at the courtyard gate, in order to prevent Liu Ruyi from becoming suspicious, he even arranged a daily schedule
Qianhu Qiuman, the most disliked by him, the coldest-tempered, but the most stable in his work, but, who would have thought that something could go wrong!
"Damn! That bastard! Sooner or later, I will have to settle accounts with him!" Chen Guowei yelled with authority!
But at this moment, there was a loud "bang" outside the courtyard gate, and the air wave spread dozens of meters away. Qiu Man rolled and crawled in front of Chen Guowei, and said in shock: "Sir, the courtyard gate, the courtyard gate is blocked."
They exploded!"
