Thinking about the people killed by Chen Yaofeng, Tie Mo felt like he had been tricked by others. He wouldn't be used as a knife by others, right?
The Northern Shanxi Army camped outside Balipo Town, and Tie Mo's camp was at the innermost side of the camp. Within a quarter of an hour after returning to the camp, Li Yuanqing and Chen Yaofeng led most of their troops back. Once they returned to the camp,
, Li Yuanqing left Chen Yaofeng to arrange for the prisoners, and hurriedly found Tie Mo. At this time, Wang Zuogao
Zhou Dingshan and Zhou Dingshan were also there, and Li Yuanqing didn't hide anything. He cupped his hands and said, "Supervisor, I always feel that what happened today is a bit strange. The bandit soldiers retreated in an orderly manner, and there are people supporting them in the south of the city. It seems that they are retreating on purpose."
The general was afraid of being deceived, so he didn't pursue it further, but stopped when he reached the stone quarry in the south of the city."
What Li Yuanqing said confirmed Tie Mo's worries on the other hand. Wang Zuoguan thought for a while and said slowly, "Superintendent, it seems that there is no peace among these bandits. If we deal with it properly, maybe there will be some success."
What a great harvest.”
Tie Mo nodded lightly and ordered the Intelligence Department to do their best to inquire about Luo Rucai's situation. Everyone was chatting and discussing whether to conquer Mianchi County as soon as possible. At this time, they heard a noise outside. Not long after, Chen Yaofeng walked in from outside and said with cupped hands.
, "Reporting to the Superintendent, there is a prisoner named Ye Qing outside who is clamoring to see you."
Li Yuanqing frowned and glared at Chen Yaofeng, "It's really nonsense. A bandit captured a soldier and can see the supervisor if he wants? Ask him what he wants first."
Chen Yaofeng also knew that he was a little reckless, but he smiled bitterly and said, "Back to General Li, I have asked him many times, but the guy just refused to tell him. He had to meet the superintendent before telling the truth."
It's interesting. A prisoner can have such a big breath. Isn't he afraid of death? Li Yuanqing was about to say something, but Tie Mo raised his hand and said, "Bring him in. I would like to hear what this prisoner has to say."
After a while, Chen Yaofeng escorted a middle-aged man into the tent. What surprised Tie Mo was that this middle-aged man was not a thief dressed in a blue turban. He was of medium height, slightly fat, wearing a long robe, and his jaw was
Under his beautiful beard, he didn't look like a thief, but rather like a teacher. When the man saw Tie Mo, he cupped his hands with some uneasiness, "The sinner Ye Qing has seen the superintendent."
"Excuse me, I heard that you are going to see me. Now that you have met, you should say something, right? Haha, but I have something to remind you. If what you say is useless, don't blame me.
The supervisor is ruthless."
Tie Mo had a smile on his face, but it gave people a strong pressure. Ye Qing was obviously not a brave person. He trembled tremblingly, cupped his hands, and said after a long while, "Supervisor, I mean... I beg you, Supervisor."
Spare the life of little lady Qinglian!"
Qing Lian? Tie Mo couldn't help frowning, and looked at Wang Zuoguan next to him. Wang Zuoguan was also puzzled. What was the relationship between Ye Qing and Qing Lian? Why did he plead for Qing Lian? In fact, Tie Mo did not
He had thought about how to deal with Qing Lian. He might keep him or kill him, but he didn't show it at this time. He sneered with a cold face and said, "Who are you? Why should I listen to you?"
"This... this little man has something big to report to the Superintendent, and he is willing to... exchange it for the life of Miss Qing Lian!"
"Let's talk about it first. If what you said is indeed of great benefit, I will spare Qinglian's life." Tie Mo winked, and Chen Yaofeng put one hand on the saber. This could not be more obvious.
Well, if what Ye Qing said was useless, not only would Qing Lian die, but even Ye Qing would be buried on the spot.
Ye Qing had never seen such a scene before. He wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his sleeves and then spoke slowly. Listening to Ye Qing's words, Tie Mo also knew a lot of things.
It turns out that this Ye Qing was originally the housekeeper of the Xu Shen family, a wealthy family in Jiexiu County. Luo Rucai, who had just launched an army four years ago, plundered Jiexiu County and killed Xu Shen's family. It was Ye Qing who led the family's entrustment and led Xu Shen's only daughter.
He left Jiexiu County. However, he escaped from Jiexiu County and lived outside for two years, but still couldn't escape. One day, Wang Li led his troops to plunder and happened to run into Ye Qing's family.
Wang Li, who had no children even in his middle age, fell in love with Qing Lian at first sight. He also knew that Qing Lian was an orphan and not the biological daughter of Ye Qing and his wife, so he recognized Qing Lian as his adopted daughter. Wang Li wanted to take Qing Lian with him, but Ye Qing also
What could he do? In his heart, Ye Qing felt that he was unwilling to let Wang Li take away Qing Lian. When he looted Jiexiu County and killed the Xu family, old and young, Wang Li had a share.
In the end, Qing Lian still followed Wang Li. Although she knew that her surname was Xu, she didn't know that she had a deep hatred with Luo Rucai and others. She waited until Qing Lian was older and had great kung fu, but her personality was more like a boy than a boy, and she was one-sided.
Very straightforward, seriously
He is a person who can't hide things. Ye Qing originally wanted to tell Xu Qinglian the truth as soon as possible, but he was afraid that this young lady would not be able to hide things and would be exposed in front of Wang Li and others, so he kept hiding it from her and just wanted to wait.
She should stay away from Luo Rucai and others.
This time when the Shanxi Army attacked Mianchi, Ye Qing thought it was a good opportunity to leave Luo Rucai, so he sent his mother-in-law to Daming Mansion first, and when there was a chance, he led the Qing Alliance to join the army. But the plan could not keep up with the changes, and the generals were fighting in front of the battle.
, but the young lady of Qinglian attacked rashly and became a prisoner. This frightened Ye Qing very much. He had no choice but to become a prisoner to see if he could save the young lady's life.
Of course, this is not what Ye Qing said. The most important thing is the conflict between Luo Rucai's power. Although Luo Rucai is the leader of the rebel army, his control over his subordinates is not as good as that of Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng. In recent years, Luo Rucai has robbed the rich and given to the poor.
The slogan was to share the money gained and keep it, which won a lot of hearts.
Originally, Luo Rucai's control over his troops was getting better and better, but at this time, during the battle at Ziwu Valley, Chuang Wang Gao Yingxiang was captured alive by the court, and the people under his command suddenly became more active.
Gao Yingxiang was captured alive by the court and was bound to die. However, the rebels were still there. A country with good principles cannot be without a king for a day. The rebels from all walks of life wanted to elect a new king of Chuang. However, Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong were half-hearted in their voices, but Luo Rucai was the least vocal.
Now everyone under Luo Rucai has begun to form cliques to seize power, among which two factions are the most prominent. One of them is the Dongshan Tiger King De Ding's faction, and the other is the Bald Eagle Gu Feilang's faction.
Wang Li, Yamashita Ying and others have been with Luo Rucai for many years, and naturally they supported Luo Rucai's rise to power. But Chen Zhonghe was different. He was able to climb to his current position entirely because of military merit. He did not have much gratitude to Luo Rucai, and Chen Zhonghe
this person
The most respected man is Li Zicheng, who happened to have made great achievements in conquering the city. Chen Zhonghe didn't want Luo Rucai to gain power, so he supported Gu Feilang, the bald eagle. The loss of Yamashita Hide and others in the battle south of Mianchi City was half intentional and half unintentional.
.
After hearing what Ye Qing said, Tie Mo smiled happily. It seems that there are fights wherever there are people. Now he is waiting to confirm whether what Ye Qing said is true or false. If everything is true, he should take advantage of it.
.
At night, he ate some simple meals in the tent. Halfway through the meal, Tie Mo remembered that he had forgotten someone. At this time, there was a Qing couplet tied in the tent.
Little Huang Ying also learned bad things. After catching Qing Lian, she actually threw her into the water and washed her. At this moment, Qing Lian was wrapped in a broad robe, with her shawl hanging loose. Her shoes had gone somewhere, and she was naked.
Tianzu, curled up with two slender legs. His big black eyes looked around wildly, his mouth whined, and he wanted to speak, but unfortunately he was stuffed with a piece of cloth.
Qing Lian was restless at first, but gradually he became more honest. Looking at the food on Tie Mo's table, he was somewhat surprised. It was just two simple dishes, which were not much better than what the soldiers outside were eating.
But I was very happy eating it.
At this moment, Qing Lian's little mind was already a little overwhelmed. Is that guy really Tie Mo, the governor of the five provinces?
In the past, I followed my adoptive father to visit many counties. The young masters there would not only eat delicacies from the mountains and seas, but also four dishes and one soup. The food eaten by the governors of the five provinces was too shabby. Qing Lian took a curious look at it.
, there was a growl in the stomach, it seemed that he was hungry. Coincidentally, Tie Mo also turned his face and looked over, and intentionally or unintentionally flashed the porridge bowl in his hand towards Qing Lian.
"Oh, I forgot about you. Are you hungry?"
For some reason, when she saw that guy's self-righteous smile, she became very angry. The little lady Qinglian tilted her head, acting like a silent thief sharing a meal at the same table. Unfortunately, there was a growl in her stomach, which completely made her blush.
I'm so embarrassed. This belly is really disappointing. It doesn't scream early in the morning or late in the evening, but it screams at this time.
Tie Mo didn't want to starve Xu Qinglian to death. Maybe this little girl would be of great use. Nunuzui, Xiao Huangying put down the bowl and chopsticks and kept Qing Lian's hand over. He loosened the ties, but Xu Qinglian didn't eat. He just kept his eyes wide open.
Big eyes looking left and right.
"Don't eat? It's better if you don't eat. This will save money for me, the governor. It's best not to eat for the rest of your life!"
After hearing this, Xu Qinglian became angry and refused to be served. He filled a bowl of porridge and began to eat and drink. He kept muttering, "Smelly man, I eat and drink you so much that I feel sorry for you."
...eat eat eat... eat eat eat...."
Looking at Xu Qinglian who looked like a hungry ghost in front of him, Tie Mo grinned and shook his head in confusion. Damn it, there is such a top-notch woman like Qing Lian in the world. It's so funny.
After taking a short rest after the meal, a sound of cursing came from the Tie Mo Tent. The soldiers guarding outside just covered their mouths and snickered, and no one was worried that something would happen. At this time, Xu Qinglian was lying motionless on the couch, wearing a loose robe.
It was slumped, and the hem was lifted up, revealing a pair of beautiful wheat-colored legs.
The little lady Qinglian was really ashamed, but she liked that feeling a little bit, so she scolded her, and the little lady Qinglian, who was not afraid of anything, actually cried.
"Smelly man, stop it...wuwu...stop it quickly..."
The big tears couldn't stop for a moment, and the crying was so sad that Tie Mo was dumbfounded, and the little Huang Ying who was watching the excitement was also dumbfounded.
The little lady from Qinglian cried like the sea bursting from the embankment, but it was a bit unexpected. Wasn’t the little lady from Qinglian all-powerful before, even more awesome than the little Huang Yingzi? Why has she become an ordinary girl now?
When Xu Qinglian cried, Xiao Huangying suddenly felt that it was no longer interesting. She grabbed Qinglian's little face and yelled fiercely, "Cry, cry, cry, why are you crying? Aren't you capable? You can't stand this?
"
"You... you bully people... how can you be like you? Kill if you want, eat if you want, torture people, make them feel as uncomfortable as ghosts..." The little lady Qinglian pouted.
She still spoke plausibly, as if what she said made sense.
Little Huangying had a cold temperament, but she couldn't help but be amused by Qinglian at this moment. She ate whatever she wanted and felt as uncomfortable as a ghost. This little girl was really a weirdo. At this time, Zhou Dingshan's voice came from outside the tent, pinching Qingqing
Looking at Lian's little face, Tie Mo straightened his clothes and stood up, "Xiao Huangying, please train this girl well. I will come as soon as I go."
Training? How could little Huang Ying know how to train people? Torturing them was more like it. So as soon as the Iron Supervisor left, Xiao Huang Ying came up with another trick to tease Qing Lian, which only made Qing Lian's little lady breathless and tears streaming down her face.
Sha Diao was waiting outside the tent. When he saw Tie Mo, he told the information he had obtained. What Sha Diao said was not much different from what Ye Qing said. Moreover, Sha Diao also brought a very important news. The Sha Diao was stationed in Shaoyuan a few days ago.
Wang Deding, the East Mountain Tiger of the town, led his army to Xin'an County. Wang Deding did this, which is very interesting. Xin'an County is in the west of Pingshaoyuan Town and north of Mianchi.
The three places are horns with each other, and occupying Xin'an seems to be a restriction on the imperial army, but is this really the case? Tie Mo doesn't think that Wang Deding's more than 20,000 people can contain the imperial army. With the combat effectiveness of the Northern Shanxi Army, plus the
The strategy of Liu Guoneng and Zhou Dingshan was to leave only one person near Xin'an, and Wang Deding would not be able to move even a little bit. It would be hard to say who would contain who at that time.
"Superintendent, my subordinates believe that Wang Deding's troops sent to Xin'an are not aimed at our army. If he wanted to defend the north, he should have sent troops to Xin'an early. Why wait until now? Therefore, my subordinates believe that Wang Deding's troops sent to Xin'an were not aimed at Chen Zhonghe's troops in Mianchi.
Come."
Sha Diao's guess coincided with Tie Mo's. They walked side by side and asked in a low voice, "Why do you think you are here for Chen Zhonghe?"
"The struggle for power between Wang Deding and Gu Feilang has actually reached the point of incompatibility. I heard that this military strategy in Mianchi was not Luo Rucai's intention, but Wang Deding's private decision. Mianchi is far away from Hangu Pass, and Gu Feilang's power is still there.
We have not reached the vicinity of Hangu Pass. Chen Zhonghe and his troops have entered Mianchi. As long as our Northern Shanxi Army raises troops to move northward, regardless of the outcome, Wang De will be given the opportunity to defeat Chen Zhonghe."
"Well, what Sha Diao said is reasonable, and I think so too. This can also explain why Chen Zhonghe rushed to kill Yamashita Hide and others today."
Having said this, Tie Mo scratched his forehead with his finger and smiled with some emotion. If he thought Chen Zhonghe was a bit stupid before, but now, he found that Chen Zhonghe is not only not stupid, but also very smart. If Chen Zhonghe
Instead of losing the lives of Yamashita Hide and others, we can keep Yamashita Hide and Lu
Hui and others cooperated with Wang Deding internally and externally, and Chen Zhonghe's more than 4,000 direct soldiers were left at the mercy of others. Now that Yamashita Ying and others are dead, nearly 10,000 rebel soldiers near Mianchi are all under the command of Chen Zhonghe, and Wang Deding has no internal reinforcements.
If you want to destroy Chen Zhonghe, you have to think carefully.
