Chapter 2067 Gui Zi Scroll: Follow the law and take the initiative

 Feng Ziying was stunned for a moment, then realized that she didn't expect that Xia Zhiling actually knew Lian Guoshi and the Hou Xun and Hou Ke brothers. But then he thought about it, Lian Guoshi was from Yongcheng, and the Hou brothers were from Shangqiu. It looked like

This person should also be from Henan.

"Master Xia is from Henan?" Feng Ziying asked with a smile: "Are you familiar with Junyu and Ruogu Ruomu?"

"We have some acquaintance." Seeing Feng Ziying practice state affairs, brother Hou Xun and Hou Ke expressed great respect in their words, Xia Zhiling also felt at ease, "I am from Guangshan, and I belong to the same hometown as Junyu, Ruogu and Ruomu."

"Oh, Guangshan is a great place. I am a native of Mr. Zhongshan. No wonder. No wonder Master Xia can still defend Wubao County under such circumstances. The court is lucky."

The Mr. Zhongshan in Feng Ziying's words is of course not the Mr. Zhongshan hundreds of years later, but Cai Yizhong, a big shot who served as the Minister of Rites in the late Yuanxi years. Feng Ziying has the impression that Cai Yizhong was also a strong figure in the fight against the eunuchs in the previous Ming Dynasty, but there is no such thing in this life.

After Emperor Yonglong came to the throne, Cai Yizhong became an official due to illness.

In fact, what Feng Ziying doesn't know is that if history has not changed, Xia Zhiling is still a member of the Donglin Party, and is the backbone of Donglin's 108 generals.

It was far less than Cai Yi at Zhongda, so Feng Ziying just didn’t remember it.

Xia Zhiling also looked proud when mentioning Cai Yizhong. When he heard Feng Ziying praise him, his face became more beautiful and his impression of Feng Ziying became even better.

"Your Excellency, you are exaggerating. I am just in my position, so I have to fulfill my responsibilities. I dare not forget about the country because of my humble position."

The situation still depends on big manpower to turn the tide. If something goes wrong here in Wu Fort, even the lower officials will not be able to afford it."

Feng Ziying slightly nodded, very satisfied with Xia Zhiling's attitude, but her words were very firm: "Master Xia can persevere unyielding, could it be that I, the governor of Shaanxi, can stay on the other side of the Yellow River and watch Wubao fall to the hands of thieves?

?”

"Your Majesty, what you said is wrong. Fort Wu was lost and will be recaptured in the future. And if your Majesty is unlucky, how can the imperial court send someone who can take over the overall situation of Shaanxi in a short period of time?" Xia Zhiling shook his head repeatedly, his face full of anxiety.

, "When the night is almost over, I will try to find a way to send you off as soon as possible. You must go to the skin as soon as possible..."

Feng Ziying was also a little moved in her heart, and the other party was also kind-hearted, but for herself, the more difficult and dangerous the situation, even Xia Zhiling felt desperate, if she could get this situation back, it would greatly boost the people's morale.

The morale has also made the group of Luli people still sitting in the Xi'an Mansion sleepless.

"Master Xia, you think that I am putting myself in danger by coming to Wu Fort, but I thought that I might be able to solve the problem by coming here. Maybe it is a bit risky, but Wu Fort is not a dispensable place. If it falls, from Yulin Town

The vast area between Fushi and Fushi may completely fall into the hands of thieves, and if Wubao falls, the Yuqiu Ferry will definitely fall into the hands of thieves, which will also pose a threat to Shanxi. If the Shanxi thieves are strong

If they are connected together, it will be even more difficult to control." Feng Ziying shook her head: "That's why I came here."

Xia Zhiling was refreshed and looked at Feng Ziying eagerly, "Your Excellency, are you coming with a large army?"

Of course, Xia Zhiling knew Feng Ziying's background. His father was the governor of the Three Kingdoms, but he was currently away on an expedition. However, Feng Ziying was still the governor of Shaanxi, so if he wanted to mobilize the Yulin army, it was not impossible.

To Xia Zhiling's disappointment, Feng Ziying shook her head: "I came south from Datong Starry Night, where can I bring troops? The situation in Shanxi is also not good, we can't expect Shanxi Town to support us in Shaanxi, right? I have contacted Yulin Town,

But there are many restrictions on how they can send troops, and it takes time. It is very difficult to get to Wu Fort."

Xia Zhiling sighed, knowing that he had some extravagant hopes.

Yulin Town is only willing to operate on the Jiazhou, Suide, and Mizhi lines. The relationship between Yan'an Prefecture and Yulin Town is constantly at odds. They complained to each other at the court. Now they are still expected to go south, and I am afraid that they will have to let the Yan'an Prefecture

A bunch of people from the Yamen went to bow their heads.

But until the last moment, I'm afraid the people in Yan'an Prefecture would not be willing to do this, especially if they let a fourth-grade civil servant bow to a group of warriors for help, it would be better to kill them.

Seeing Xia Zhiling's disappointed look, Feng Ziying smiled lightly: "It seems that Mr. Xia has no confidence in me."

"I don't dare." Xia Zhiling said with some embarrassment: "It's just that you may not know something. There are three to four thousand rebel troops besieging the city outside, and it is still growing. It is said that there are also rebel troops in Jiazhou.

Heading towards Wubao, they all want to break through Wubao City and get a share of the pie. When you came in, you probably saw the stupid people in the lobby still arguing there. Haha, the water in the cauldron is boiling. Just wait for these people

It's ridiculous that they are still feeling good about themselves..."

"Although they are stupid people, if they are used properly, they may not be unable to play some role." Feng Ziying looked at the other party. He knew that if this guy's spirit collapsed, it would be difficult to fight this battle. He must kill this guy.

Fighting spirit aroused, "Master Xia, does he know where I served before becoming the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture?"

Xia Zhiling hesitated for a moment, thought for a while and then said, "I heard that Jun Yu mentioned that he should be the co-president of Yongping Mansion. He is now taking over your position."

"Yes, it only took me less than a year and a half to go from being the magistrate of Yongping Prefecture to being the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture, from the fifth rank to the fourth rank. Even though Feng was from the Hanlin Academy, I am afraid that it would be difficult to convince the public, but I

The official was appointed as the Prime Minister of Shuntian, but no one in the court could object. Even now that I have only served as Prime Minister of Shuntian for a year and a half before patrolling Shaanxi, I have something to rely on. Does Mr. Xia know why I rely on it?"

Although Xia Zhiling knew that Feng Ziying was promoted very quickly, he still thought that this guy might be because he was a compilation writer in the Hanlin Academy. However, it was a bit strange that the censors had no objection to such an unexpected rise.

, so I suddenly became curious.

"Without anything else, I was in Yongping Prefecture with a few thousand Yong civilians, relying on the favorable terrain, to fight the tens of thousands of Inner Khalkha cavalry heading south. This group of Inner Khalkha people conquered the Santun Camp in one fell swoop

After annihilating the Beijing camp's 100,000-strong army, the momentum was at its peak. However, with the help of thousands of civilians, I beat the Inner Khalkhas to a pulp and retreated in embarrassment. Relying on this great achievement and the addition of Chahar

The invasion of the capital from the south frightened the people of the capital, and my return to Shuntian Prefecture gave the people confidence, so the court decided to appoint me as the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture."

Feng Ziying's tone was full of unquestionable confidence and his eyes were bright.

This was a situation that Xia Zhiling didn't know about. In Yongping Mansion, thousands of people fought against tens of thousands of Mongolian cavalry, and they actually won. This sounds like a fantasy and is unbelievable.

But it makes no sense for Xia Zhiling to believe that Feng Ziying lied about this kind of thing.

After you get down, you can ask anyone casually and you will know whether it is true or not. If a governor told such a lie, it would be too shameful and would only make people look down upon him.

It seems that this governor who was born in Wuxun of Bian Town is really capable of literary and military skills. Perhaps it is due to his family education. If this is the case, there is really some hope.

"But sir, there are only a few hundred people and a few domestic servants in Wubao City now..."

"But the rebels outside are not worth mentioning. Can they compare with the Mongols?" Feng Ziying's temper became even higher, full of disdain for the rebels outside the city: "Does Master Xia know that I

How did the officer enter the city? With only fifty taels of silver, he came in alone and bribed the rebel army's small leader easily. With such military discipline, a mere mob is worthy of fighting? Let alone winning the war."

These words made Xia Zhiling irrefutable. The military discipline of the rebels outside the city was very bad. Otherwise, the gentry in the city would not have had the confidence to bribe the leaders of the rebels.

"I also know that there are still rebels heading towards Fort Wu. I feel that this is not even a bad thing. The more teams there are, the harder it is for these ragtag groups to unify their views and command, and it is easier to take advantage of the contradictions among them in a war.

Dishe came to defeat them one by one. They are just a bunch of mud-legged people. A few months ago, they only knew how to sow and raise seedlings in the fields, cut wheat and collect grain. Now they can say that they are an army capable of fighting. Mr. Xia, do you think it is possible?

?”

Feng Ziying's words were reasonable and well-founded, and it was difficult to answer Xia Zhiling's question.

"Sir, it's just that the people and servants in this city are all scattered and scattered, and..., well,..." Xia Zhiling sighed and could only shake his head.

Feng Ziying could guess what the situation was. It was nothing more than that these gentry and country squires and their servants were doing their own thing and it was difficult to direct them. If this situation could not be changed, Wubao City could not be defended by just a few hundred people.

"Master Xia, since I am here this time, I will naturally unite all the forces in the city that can resist and defend the city. If anyone still regards these people as private forces and tries to have their own way without restraint, then I will

I think that he is colluding with the rebels outside the city, colluding with each other, and is even suspected of collaborating with others, so he should be dealt with decisively!"

Feng Ziying's every word is like gold and iron falling to the ground.

Xia Zhiling's heart trembled. Only then did he realize that although the other party was young and he was the only one in front of him, he was an imperial envoy and the governor of Shaanxi!

In the entire land of Shaanxi, whether it is the Yulin Army or the Shaanxi Chengxuan Administrative Envoy Department and the Punishing and Prosecution Envoy Department, they all fall under his jurisdiction and command. If anyone dares to question and resist his decision, whether it is officials, civilians, gentry, merchants, or the army,

He has the right to execute categorically!
