Chapter 96: Acting in the Barracks and Catching Big Fish

Although it was drizzling, it was raining very densely, shrouding the entire land in a mist of rain and mist, blowing with the north wind, and quickly disappearing the group of cavalry. The biting cold wind was still blowing,

The drizzle was still falling, and a group of more than thirty cavalrymen patrolled from north to south along the east bank of the canal. Their speed was not fast, and from time to time there was condensation on the raincoats and bamboo hats on their heads.

Raindrops fell. Although it was windy and rainy, no one complained or moved. From a distance, they looked like a group of scarecrows on horseback.

Zhang Wenyuan looked back at his subordinates and was very satisfied with their performance. Although the military discipline of the Han army recruited by Dahari was lax and most of the soldiers were lazy soldiers and ruffians, Zhang Wenyuan did not follow the crowd. He demanded of his subordinates

He is very strict, and whenever he has the opportunity, he will also use the same requirements to restrain the soldiers of other troops and stop their actions of harassing the people. Therefore, he does not have many friends in the army, but he is very confident. He has always believed that if he abandons

Excluding firing weapons, the soldiers you train can at least be on par with the elite troops of the famous Chinese Revolutionary Army and the soldiers of the Eight Banners Army.

Zhang Wenyuan was thinking to himself when he suddenly heard one of his soldiers shouting: "Look, Commander, there are a few figures over there!" Zhang Wenyuan followed the soldier's hand and saw a place a hundred feet away from his left hand.

There were a few blurry figures, and you couldn't tell them at all if you didn't look carefully. He glanced at the soldier with satisfaction and said, "Very good! Go back and record your merits for you! Follow me!" After that, he turned his horse.

Head, ran towards those figures. Those people were obviously riding horses, but their horses were not as fast as war horses, and they stopped when they heard Zhang Wenyuan’s shout, so Zhang Wenyuan quickly hurried on

Got on them.

There were five of these people in total, all wearing raincoats and bamboo hats. Their faces could not be seen clearly. Behind them, there were five carriages. Zhang Wenyuan ordered his men to draw their swords and surround the five people. Then he urged his horses forward.

Asked: "Who are you? Where are you from? Where are you going?" Hearing his unique voice, one of them took off the bamboo hat on his head, looked at Zhang Wenyuan and said, "What? Zhang Youyi doesn't recognize me, Chen."

"?" At this time, Zhang Wenyuan finally saw the man's face clearly and said: "It turns out to be Brother Chen. Now that the war is in chaos, where are you going?"

The man surnamed Chen smiled bitterly and said in a low voice: "There is no way! I can't ignore my business! You know, I sell everything. Now that there is a war, although other businesses are difficult to do, this food can be

It has become in short supply! I am going to buy food now and prepare to transport it back to Yangzhou City to sell it at a high price. To tell you the truth, I know that because of the increase in the number of people in Yangzhou City, you have eaten up the food quickly. Now those "

"Refugees" have begun to eat people! Especially your army cannot be short of food! Your General Nadakhari was afraid that the army would have no food to eat and rioted, so he had to buy food at a high price, and because the army outside the city had internal strife in order to grab food,

A lot of people died, so he has transferred most of the troops outside the city back to the city! Zhang Guerbi, I am here to help you, General Dahari, solve your problems!"

Zhang Wenyuan sighed secretly after hearing this. He didn't know the current situation in Yangzhou City, so he echoed: "So that's it! No wonder those Eight Banners Army cavalry who usually show off their power are gone! It turns out they were transferred back to the city.

I don't know yet." The man surnamed Chen said: "There is a war going on now, and the Chinese Revolutionary Army is also short of food. General Dahari has issued a military order. If you send food to the Chinese Revolutionary Army, you are siding with the enemy. I am afraid that I will be attacked.

General Dahari was killed for collaborating with the enemy. He wanted to secretly go to the south to buy grain and sell it in Yangzhou. Unexpectedly, he met a guerrilla master. It became clear to him that I was indeed going to Yangzhou to sell grain. General, I asked you to see how many times we met.

For your sake, just believe me! If the general doesn’t believe it, I will go back to Yangzhou immediately, no, I will go back to Nanjing!" After saying that, he started to walk back.

Zhang Wenyuan knew what the man named Chen meant. General Dahari had issued a military order that all those who could bring food would be secretly robbed for collaborating with the enemy, because he did not have so much money to buy food at high prices, but once the merchants could bring the food

If it was safely transported to Yangzhou City, he couldn't rob it so blatantly. If it was a blatant robbery, a fool would transport the grain to sell it, and he wouldn't be able to get the grain. The underground soldiers secretly robbed the grain halfway, and Dahari also said something.

, saying that it was all the private behavior of his soldiers, and he must investigate and deal with it strictly. The key is to verify and deal with it strictly. If it is not verified, it will not be dealt with strictly. When will it be verified? Wait a hundred and eighty years.

Hearing the words of the man surnamed Chen, Zhang Wenyuan blushed a little at his boss's shameless behavior. Zhang Wenyuan hurriedly stopped him and said: "Wait! You said that the Chinese Revolutionary Army is also short of food? Oh, then, who knew you were selling food?

You are still spying on the military. I don’t know if what you are telling is the truth, but I must send you to the camp and ask General Dahari to punish you. If what you are telling the truth, then maybe General Dahari can spare your life.

, and maybe even reward you! In this case, I will send ten soldiers to take you to the camp." After saying that, he turned around and ordered the soldiers to do as he did, ignoring the man's pleading.

When his subordinates took away the grim-faced man and his entourage, Zhang Wenyuan decided to sneak to the other side in person and carefully inquire about the other side's reality to see if what the man said was true. Fortunately, the cavalry on the other side had long been gone.

There was no trace of Zhang Wenyuan, so Zhang Wenyuan and his men successfully found a small fishing boat and crossed the canal. When Zhang Wenyuan crossed the river, the grain merchant was trying to bribe Zhang Wenyuan's ten men. He took out the package

Fifty taels of silver were handed to one of the soldiers and said: "Brothers, thank you for your hard work! This is a little thought from me. It's not a sign of respect. Please accept it." The soldier glanced at the silver and his eyes shone.

, although they were veterans who followed Zhang Wenyuan and were paid a little more than the recruits who had never seen military pay, after all, they had not seen military pay for more than half a year. The money was really tempting! But then he thought of Zhang Wenyuan.

He had no choice but to swallow his breath and said: "We have given a death order from the president. We will not accept any money from people with unknown origins and unknown purposes. Otherwise, we will give you twenty military sticks at the least, and give us 20 military sticks at the most serious.

Then behead! You are now a prisoner under our escort, do you want us to let you go? You still have given up! We cannot accept this money!"

The look on the man's face darkened, but then he regained his trademark smile and said, "Look at what you said, this is really my wish. Could it be that the military master thinks the money is too little? It doesn't matter, I'm here

There are also fifty taels of silver, please accept it!" After saying that, he ordered his followers to take out fifty taels of silver. The ten soldiers looked at each other for a few times, and the leader finally gritted his teeth, stretched out his hand to take the silver, and said

: "Then thank you so much, Shopkeeper Chen! By the way, I don't know what to call Shopkeeper Chen? Where is his surname?" Shopkeeper Chen said with a smile: "My name is Chen Dashan. I am from Zhili. Chongzhen of the previous dynasty raised his family in the 15th year of his reign.

I moved to Nanjing and dealt in cloth, grain, medicinal materials, and other groceries. In short, I did whatever I wanted to make money! May I ask what I call the military master?" The soldier said: "My surname is Tian, ​​and I am a senior, so you can call me Brother Tian.

!" Shopkeeper Chen said: "I don't dare, I don't dare. I'll call you Brother Tian, ​​the military master!" Tian Shichang said: "What's the point of not daring? You businessmen are just timid. By the way, I just heard you and us talking about the boss.

Talking, it seems that you are very familiar with each other!" Shopkeeper Chen said: "Yes! I went to General Zhang Wenyuan's military camp several times last year, and I could see Zhang Guobi in the military camp every time. We even drank together! Yes.

Why did he become the boss again? Did he quarrel with someone again?" Tian Shichang said: "It was not just a quarrel, he also started a fight with someone! That person is also a guerrilla, his surname is Zhao, and his name is Dahari

The nephew of the distant cousin of a Han concubine of the general. He was lazy during military training and allowed his soldiers to rob civilian girls. Zhang Youyi couldn't see it, so he beat him up. As a result, he sued him, so Luo Youyi

He becomes Boss Luo."

Dahari's camp rushed to







Shopkeeper Chen, who was walking behind, breathed a long sigh of relief, because he knew that his name was not Chen Dashan, but Liu Xiaoliu. He was a subordinate of Wang Xiaolong, the commander of the special reconnaissance team of the Chinese Revolutionary Army, and he was also a special agent.

The commander of the reconnaissance team, the person in charge of the Jianghuai area, went to Dahari's camp. His purpose was not to make sworn friends with a few soldiers, but to have more important things to do!

Lieutenant General Liu Fengqing was wearing an ordinary soldier's military uniform and a large-brimmed hat to block his appearance. He stood on the city wall of the north gate of Yangzhou. He looked towards the city, starting from a place more than half a mile away from the city wall, next to

There are many shacks in the residential areas. It can be seen that only a few of those shacks have people moving outside, while most of the shacks are lifeless.

Lieutenant General Liu Fengqing gritted his teeth and cursed: "Who is so unscrupulous as to spread the word about me driving nearby villagers into the city to be used as cannon fodder? I have no choice but to spread it out! You can just spread the word, but those...

The refugees also know that if it hadn't been for the timely rescue by the personal guards just now, I would have been beaten to death by that group of crazy thugs!" He silently paid tribute to those who told the refugees the truth about his ancestors.

of women.

Yangzhou City was closed five days ago by General Dahari's order. All city gates were heavily guarded, and all suspension bridges were raised. Patrolling reconnaissance troops were sent out, and all personnel were prohibited from entering or leaving. Without General Dahari's order, anyone who dared to forcefully

Anyone who breaks in will be killed on the spot!

At this time, all the villagers near Yangzhou had been arrested by Manchu soldiers. In order to prevent Xizuo from being mixed in with the refugees, and to prevent chaos when entering the city and causing Xizuo to slip out of the city, Dahari prohibited everyone from entering or exiting the city.

Seeing that the city gate was closed, the refugees had no choice but to move elsewhere. However, there were still many people who either had no food or simply could not walk. They set up shacks outside Yangzhou City and resigned themselves to their fate. In addition to ordering the city to be closed,

Outside the gate, Dahari also ordered the army stationed outside the city to enter the city.

Different from the Manchu and Qing troops guarding the city, Zhang Huahan led a large army and began to encircle Yangzhou City. He sent the commander of Chen Zilong's cavalry regiment to lead his cavalry regiment and a division of troops under Division Commander Chen Mingming to secretly station themselves fifty miles north of the city.

In a forest, always ready for battle.

Zhang Huahan also ordered the soldiers in the six earthen villages outside the city to tear down all the walls of the villages and move them all into the encircled company camp. He also sent people to run to Yangzhou City overnight and set up a highland outside the city gate closest to Yangzhou City.

A series of mines and gunpowder barrels were buried a foot below the ground, and several gunpowder barrels used for detonation were hidden under the high ground.

Afterwards, Zhang Huahan sent a message overnight to Captain Hai Dafu of the Navy's First Fleet, who was commanding the canal operations, asking him to transfer the naval division in the canal to his command.

After these preparations were completed, Zhang Huahan ordered the soldiers to start "acting" in the city. Some soldiers were sent to the walls of the military camp to beat each other and pretend to fight for steamed buns, while other soldiers were specifically in the camp.

They fired a few shots to the east of the military camp, and then ran to the west of the military camp to fire a few more shots. The remaining soldiers set up firewood and set fire to the few open spaces in the city, making a scene of chaos.

At the beginning, the militiamen of the nearby Chinese Revolutionary Army, who were cooperating in transporting grain and fodder and cooperating with the regular army of the Chinese Revolutionary Army, thought it was a mutiny by the regular army. They were extremely frightened and rushed to the military camp for emergency response. However, they came to their senses after entering.

I felt that those "rebels" didn't seem to be serious about their mutiny, and they seemed to be joking. They actually smiled during the fight, so they went to the military camp to find the officers to inquire about the whole story. However, these Chinese Revolutionary Army militiamen

Not only did the people in the army fail to find out what happened, but they were detained and not allowed to leave the barracks. In order to prevent spies from sneaking in, Zhang Huahan issued an order that everyone was not allowed to leave once they entered. Those who left would be charged with collaborating with the enemy and killed without mercy.

, the militia troops of the Chinese Revolutionary Army finally discovered that all this was just a show. As for who to show it to, they did not know. Of course, there were also smart people who knew that it was to show the Manchu Qing Army in Yangzhou City. The Chinese Revolutionary Army

The militia troops and some regular army soldiers with no missions just stood aside and watched the fun. Sometimes they came up with ideas and even participated directly to make the fun more intense and realistic.

In order to test the effect, Zhang Huahan even went outside the camp to observe it. From the outside, he could see that the inside of the camp was filled with thick throats. The soldiers of the Chinese Revolutionary Army at the head of the camp were fighting in a group, and several officers were on the scene.

When they came to stop them, they even "beat" the officers together. People who didn't know what was going on would definitely think that there was a riot in the barracks when they saw this scene. But in order to prevent real riots from happening, Zhang Huahan stepped up patrols and caught everyone who was caught.

Anyone who really takes advantage of the situation, whether an officer or a soldier, will be shot on the spot!
