After the Jeju governor received the "redeeming bill" from the Yangshan bandits, he exploded on the spot:
"Ordinary soldiers have thirty guans, armored soldiers have 60 guans, and cavalry have 100 guans..."
"I'm afraid these Liangshan bandits are either crazy or crazy because of their poverty!"
Marquis Yu of Liang Zhongshu's house, who was waiting for the news at the Yamen, also laughed angrily after reading the 'bill':
"If you weren't crazy, how could you dare to rob the birthday card given to the Grand Master?"
After a while.
When Marquis Yu saw that the governor of Jeju frowned, he couldn't help but remind him:
"Master Taishou, He Tao is just a loser, please continue to send people to suppress the bandits!"
"Natural, natural!"
The governor of Jeju knew that if he did not recover the 100,000 yuan, his life and fortune would be in trouble, so he did not dare to neglect and quickly sent someone to call the regiment commander Huang An.
He Tao's previous official position was to arrest envoys in Sandu, and his status was similar to that of the director of Jeju.
Huang An, the training commander of this regiment, has a status similar to that of the commander of the armed police.
Unlike He Qing, who could only muster 800 soldiers, Huang An, as the training envoy of the Jeju regiment, should have 5,000 soldiers and horses under his command.
Of course, Huang An only has two thousand soldiers and horses under his command when everyone has to live on empty wages.
Huang An heard that the governor of Jeju was going to send himself to attack the Liangshan bandits. When he went to the government office to take orders, he fell off his horse and broke his leg.
The news reached the governor of Jeju, who was so angry that he smashed many valuable porcelains on the spot:
"They are all a bunch of losers!"
Seeing that his generals were so cowardly, the governor of Jeju had no choice but to send someone to find the military commander of Jeju.
This military commander is similar to a military division commander, and he should have six to seven thousand soldiers and horses under his command.
It is a pity that Jeju Prefecture has not experienced war for a long time, and the soldiers and horses under the command are even more starved. There are only two to three thousand people under their command, and most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled.
When the military supervisor came to the Yamen and learned that Fu Yin was going to send him to encircle and suppress the Liangshan bandits, his complexion immediately changed and he was about to refuse.
But before he opened his mouth, he saw the Jeju governor's face was gloomy, his forehead was dark, and his eyes were fierce. He didn't dare to say anything if he refused.
However, he would never dare to ask him to lead troops to Liangshan.
After hesitating again and again, the commander of the army and horses coughed lightly and said with a flattering smile:
"Master Taishou, the Liangshan bandits are hiding in eight hundred water pools. It is really difficult to find a needle in a haystack with only the horse infantry under the general's command who don't know how to swim!"
When the governor of Jeju Province saw the military commander mentioning the difficulty, he knew it was the truth, so he could only calmly ask:
"Then what plan do you have to suppress the bandits?"
"The final general has three strategies: upper, middle and lower!"
The soldiers and horses were supervising the appearance of military advisors in the drama. They stretched out their hands to smooth the stubble on their chins and said:
"The best strategy is to report the true situation to the Grand Master and ask the Grand Master to send a navy to assist. As soon as the navy arrives, the Liangshan bandits will become a turtle in the urn, at our disposal!"
After hearing this, the governor of Jeju agreed very much.
However, when he looked at Marquis Yu of the Liang Mansion who had been listening, he saw that he had no reaction, so he could only let the Superintendent of Soldiers and Horses continue to talk about the other two plans.
Seeing this, all the soldiers and horses could only say helplessly:
"The best strategy is to select our own soldiers who are good at water-based skills and train them. It can take as long as a year and a half, or as short as three to five months, and it can be effective!"
This time, the governor of Jeju shook his head and said:
"Grand Master Jun's decree only gave half a month to annihilate the bandits and get back the birthday card before the end of the month. We don't have time to train soldiers at all, so you should tell us what to do!"
The soldiers and horses all monitored and heard that the Taishi Mansion only gave half a month, so they could only sigh and said:
"Since the first two strategies don't work, we can only... let us fill this shortfall first..."
"Hmm? Wonderful!"
Jeju Prefecture Yin's eyes lit up instantly, and he said to Yuhou Xi of Liang Prefecture:
"Sir, what do you think of the governor's plan? Why don't you let me first fill in the birthday outline for Lord Zhongshu? How about we discuss the matter of annihilating the bandits in the long term?"
"Then let's do it!"
Marquis Yu of the Liang Mansion showed a trace of unhappiness on the surface, but in fact his heart was about to burst with joy.
You should know that both Xie Duguan and the two Marquises of Liang Mansion who escorted the birth planner concealed the truth:
That is, as soon as the One Hundred Thousand Birthday Plan left Daming Mansion, it was stolen by someone using the trick of stealing the sky and exchanging it with the sun.
The Liangshan bandits only robbed dozens of boxes of stones.
If the Jeju Prefecture really wiped out the Liangshan bandits, but failed to find the birth date, and finally learned the truth, the Liang Prefecture's Yuhou and the Xie Duguan would all be held responsible.
Now, the governor of Jeju has volunteered to help fill this shortfall, and naturally everyone is happy.
The three of them discussed it.
The governor of Jeju first reported to the superiors and asked for support.
The reason for requesting support is, as the Military Supervisor said, the Liangshan bandits are hiding in the Eight Hundred Water Ponds and need the navy's assistance.
And in order to increase credibility, the Jeju Governor also reported that in order to suppress the bandits, the Jeju Governor sent two thousand soldiers and horses who were not water-resistant to suppress the bandits. As a result, they encountered a storm and all of them were wiped out.
After submitting this document requesting assistance, the Jeju government directly deducted the free pay of 1,200 people, and also asked for the pension of 2,000 government soldiers.
After some operations, although the governor of Jeju gained some fame, he also made no less than 30,000 gu in blood.
As for the imperial navy, which is temporarily unable to come to suppress the bandits, it has nothing to do with Jeju Prefecture.
Anyway, the governor of Jeju took the 30,000 guan of silver he earned and added another 30,000 guan of his own, making up 60,000 guan.
Huang An, the supervisor of the army and horsemen and the commander of the regiment, each took 20,000 guan and put together a 100,000 "birthday guide" and handed it to Marquis Yu of Liang Mansion to send to the Grand Master's Mansion.
My dear, there will be more after this chapter, please click on the next page to continue, there will be more exciting things to come!
Cai Jing did not continue to embarrass the governor of Jeju because of the "lost and found" birthday card.
At this point, the Jeju government's campaign to annihilate the Yangshan bandits came to an end.
Of course, this is official news.
Among the people, the whole Jeju Prefecture was in an uproar as soon as the news came out that two thousand soldiers and horses of Jeju Prefecture went out to fight, but were completely wiped out.
The families of those captives cried for father and mother, but they could only choose to accept their fate.
After all, sending troops to fight means life and death.
However, ordinary captive families did not know the truth, but He Tao's wife, He Wang, learned the truth through her husband's old relationship.
Mrs. He Wang is not willing to give up her man.
After learning that her husband's ransom required one thousand taels of silver, he sold his family property and scraped together some here and there.
End of July.
He Wang gave the one thousand taels of silver she had collected to her brother-in-law He Qing, and asked He Qing to take the money to Liangshan to redeem He Tao.
After He Tao was ransomed, he became a 'gangster' with no identity.
Under such circumstances, he could only leave Jeju with his wife in despair and find another way out.
Then half a month.
Liangshan had been paying attention to the government movements, and noticed that the Jeju government had no action, so he slowly lowered his guard.
It seems that the birthday issue has really been settled.
In late August, after an autumn rain, the weather turned cooler.
Su Mingzhe found Qiao Lie and entrusted him with the affairs of the village. He was going to Cangzhou to see if he could persuade Lin Chong to join him.
Just do it.
On the same day, he asked Sanlian to help him pack his luggage.
Both Pan Jinlian and Bai Yulian obediently went to pack the man's clothes and utensils, but Jin Cuilian came to the man's side with a worried look on her face:
"Your Majesty, Cangzhou has a long road, high mountains and long rivers. You must take care of yourself! Don't drink cold water, eat raw food, and add more clothes in time..."
Jin Cuilian used to be Zhao Yuanwai's wife, but Zhao Yuanwai disappeared because of a long trip.
Jin Cuilian doesn't want to be a widow again.
Seeing this, Pan Jinlian and Bai Yulian also leaned over and said heart-warming words.
Seeing that the three girls were well-behaved, Su Mingzhe felt proud and couldn't help but laugh:
"Don't worry, beauties, I have always been strong and strong, don't you know?"
After hearing this, the three girls immediately blushed.
In the past two months of getting along, the three women would be killed by the man even if they joined forces.
If one of the sisters is unwell, at night, the remaining two girls will have no choice but to ask for their own blessings.
Seeing the shy and timid appearance of the three girls, Su Mingzhe not only moved his index finger:
