Chapter 125 Scum

When the news of He Tengjiao's killing spread throughout Huguang, the talents in Yuezhou City woke up as if they were dreaming. Gu Yanwu and Yuan Jixian were speechless, only sighing.

Hou Xuanyan made a gesture like a thunderous moment, which seemed to be a temporary act and acted recklessly. In fact, he began to plan as early as Changzhou. Later, he entered Fuzhou to meet the saint for this moment. People like He Tengjiao and Shi Kefa must die, otherwise they would let such people stole the high position, and then Yangzhou is everywhere in China. Incompetence is not a death sentence, but at the critical moment of the country's destruction and the genocide, it is still so incompetent that it should be a death sentence that should be crushed and ashes.

Following Hou Xuanyan, Xia Wanchun looked at Hou Xuanyan with a strange look. Only he clearly remembered that when he wrote a letter to the court in Changzhou, Hou Xuan spoke and asked He Tengjiao to welcome the sacred carriage, with a strange smile.

Hou Xuanyan was a little bit furious when he saw him and asked dissatisfiedly: "I see you are absent-minded, what are you thinking?"

Xia Wanchun smirked and covered up, "We killed He Tengjiao and Zhang Kuang, but there are so many counties in Huguang, and the money, grain, soldiers and horses are originally in the hands of He Tengjiao. I was wondering how to take over."

When Hou Xuanyan heard this, his eyes lit up, and became interested, and asked quickly: "Did you think of any idea?"

Xia Wanchun's face turned red, she shook her head, then lowered her head, and whispered: You are so treacherous, I'm afraid you've thought about it long ago.

Hou Xuanyan smiled and said, "I have planned this for a long time."

“…”

There are sixteen prefectures under the jurisdiction of Huguang Province, including Wuchang Prefecture and Xiangyang Prefecture, which fell into the hands of the Tatars. There are also battlefields like Jingzhou Prefecture, which are both sides, and are fighting at all times.

In the prefectures to the south and the counties and counties under the jurisdiction, there were constantly trampling by the elite cavalry. The chief officials of each county went to Changsha under the escort of the army.

Seven days later, it was already the golden autumn season. Among the golden chrysanthemums at the foot of Yuelu Mountain, Hou Xuanyan met these local officials.

On the small tables, there were a few plates of side dishes and a pot of wine. The people who came were all prefectures from various prefectures and some magistrates from major counties. They also knew that He Tengjiao was killed. This incident should have caused huge waves in Huguang. Who knew that the thunder and rain were loud. Everything was going on step by step, as if there had never been a governor named He Tengjiao in Huguang.

In order to raise food and money for his 30,000 military commanders, He Tengjiao made the Hunan people angry and resentful. The nearby counties were deeply hurt by it. More people were secretly happy when they heard that He Tengjiao was killed.

Hou Xuanyan raised his glass and said, "Today, all counties and counties are all parents. As an official, one should benefit the people. It is a pity that He Tengjiao imposes heavy taxes and makes the people live in poverty. Fortunately, He Tengjiao has been executed, and the various measures he has set to harm the people must be stopped immediately."

Hou Xuanyan, who thought that a burst of cheers would burst out from the crowd, looked at the quiet crowd and could feel their despair from a distance.

Hou Xuanyan picked a prefect who wanted to speak but stopped and said, "I see you looking around and trying, but what do you have to say to me?"

This person happened to be Zheng Hanqing, the governor of Hengzhou. He paused, made up his mind and said angrily: "Report to the commander-in-chief, although He Tengjiao is dead, his minions, Huang Chaoxuan, Zhang Xianbi and others, follow suit, and even become more and more powerful. These people rely on their soldiers to ravage the place and poison the countryside. Our Hengzhou was forced by Huang Chaoxuan's soldiers day and night, and the people had fled everywhere. Even those who stayed were forced to go to their wits. The people who committed suicide every day did not leave hundreds of households. It is said that Hubei Tartars killed people like mahjong, but they did not know that Hunan's soldiers were more terrible than Tartars."

When Zheng Hanqing talked about the emotions, he burst into tears. The officials from other counties around him felt empathy and were secretly wiping his tears.

Hou Xuanyan's face turned pale. He thought he had mastered these places, but he didn't expect that there were still such a group of scums.

These people are typical examples of being brave enough to abuse the people and being afraid of foreign wars. Since the Tartars entered the pass, most of the people surrendered.

Hou Xuanyan said angrily: "These scums ignore military discipline. As parents, don't you dare to take care of them?"

Zheng Hanqing replied: "These people rely on He Tengjiao's support, and with their soldiers and horses, how can we do anything to them? The constable and yamen runners in the yamen are not opponents of these soldiers."

"It's so fucking bad! What kind of world is this? These dog thieves are more hateful than Tartars!" Hou Xuanyan cursed a few times, turned around and asked, "My order is very clear. The officials in charge of civil and military officials of various prefectures are coming here to gather. Are these people here?"

Qin He shook his head and said, "Huang Chaoxuan, Zhang Xianbi, and Cao Zhijian, didn't come."

Hou Xuanyan said loudly: "You go back to your respective counties and counties. Three days later, I will lead my army to go there. You must cooperate with me and kill all these bastards."

Some of the people suffered a lot, their faces showed joy, and a few of them looked bad. They were with Huang Chaoxuan and others, and they didn't know how much money they had been greedy. These people were afraid that Hou Xuanyan would catch them all in one go, and after they were ready to leave the table, they would hurry up and report the news.

After everyone dispersed, Xia Wanchun asked, "Master General, why do you have to wait for three days? There are wars in Jingzhou and Wuchang, so we need to fight and decide quickly."

Hou Xuanyan said hatefully: "Huguang is familiar, and the world is full. Even children know this folk song. Such a fertile soil for producing food can be made hungry by them. If they don't kill them, they won't have to attack the Tartars. They will be finished.

I said that it was to confuse them for three days. Today, there were too many people at the table, and there would definitely be rumors. If I say this, they will relax their vigilance in these three days, and our chances will be greater. Our Feng-like camp marched like the wind. This time we use blitzkrieg to set off tonight, using the blood of these beasts to warn other soldiers. We are on the front line to resist the Tartars. If anyone dares to hide behind to abuse the people, I will make him die ugly."

Xia Wanchun bowed and took the order, Hou Xuanyan asked, "Do you know where these people are stationed?"

Xia Wanchun patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, General Manager, I have kept the garrison map in my heart these days at the yamen office, and there is no mistake."

"Okay! Go back and sharpen your knife, and go kill the dog tonight!"
