Wang Xian is the governor of Fusi Town in Beizhen, and is the spy chief second only to Ji Gang. He may not be able to get more than a thousand people to cross the river safely under a tight blockade, but if only two or three of his people can cross the river quietly,
If Jiangdu couldn't do it, he, the leader of Fusi in Beizhen, should be killed by a headlong collision.
In fact, just when Wei Wuque's eyes were drawn to the ferry dock, Wang Xian, Ling Xiao and Yang Rong had already boarded a boat on the riverside that came to meet them. Under the cover of the mist on the river, they quickly arrived at the south bank of the river.
As soon as they landed, they were met by Wu Wei and Yan Qing who came to greet them. Wang Xian was now completely safe.
It’s just that he really can’t laugh. With his powerful position today, he was chased like a lost dog in the Ming Dynasty. In the end, he had to cut off the tail of a gecko to sneak across the river. It was really a great shame and humiliation in his life!
"As long as you arrive safely, sir." Wu Wei naturally understood his mood at the moment. Seeing Wang Xian's pale face, he hurriedly comforted him softly: "We will release the news soon. I believe that as long as the other side knows that you have returned to Beijing, there will be no problem."
It is necessary to embarrass General Mo and them."
"Yes." Wang Xian nodded and said with a slightly calmer expression, "Where are the others?"
"Sir, the situation in Beijing is tense right now," Wu Wei said with a gloomy expression, "Brothers don't dare to leave their posts without permission, so we can only let us be the representatives."
"What happened?" Wang Xian asked with a frown.
"Let's talk about it after we get back to Beijing." Yan Qing sighed and said, "You will know when you see it."
"Go back to Beijing!" Wang Xian scowled, slapped his horse's butt hard, and rushed out first. He felt like there was a fire in his chest. If he didn't let it out, it would burn him to ashes!
After running like this all the way to the gate of Hanxi, Wang Xian had to rein in his horse because there was also a melee there. Both sides of the melee were soldiers wearing Ming military uniforms. Although the two sides did not use swords and guns, they punched and kicked
Kick without mercy, like some life-or-death enemy.
"How many days has it been since the emperor left Beijing?" Wang Xian asked with a frown, "Has military discipline become so chaotic?"
"Hey, it's hard to explain in one sentence." Wu Wei sighed: "Ever since the King of Han privately built Tiance's left and right guards, this kind of situation has happened frequently."
"Has the so-called Tiance left and right guards of the King of Han... been approved by the Ministry of War?" Wang Xian had received several reports on the road. Wang Xian still knew something about what was happening in the capital.
"No, Fang Butang has been delaying the approval," Wu Wei said in a deep voice: "But the King of Han still went his own way and continued to recruit troops. Now the two guards have four to five thousand troops. It is said that a navy was built on the Yangtze River. The Ministry of War did not
To establish the establishment, the Ministry of Household Affairs naturally did not provide food and fodder, and the Ministry of Works did not provide weapons. He asked Tiance Guards and the Royal Guards to provide equipment and fodder for these people to use, and then they went to the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Works to make trouble with nothing.
The capital is smoky all day long.”
"Is the King of Han seeking death?" Wang Xian frowned and asked.
"With Jigang here and King Zhao in Beijing, it is difficult for the emperor to know the true situation in the capital." Wu Wei sighed: "By the time the news reached the emperor's ears, it had already been ten times and eight times. It was obvious that he had lost his head.
The matter is a little out of line. The King of Han was attacked just now, and the emperor feels sorry for him, so naturally he will not blame him."
At this time, the person who went to inquire about the information came back and reported to Wang Xian: "My lord, I have inquired clearly. It is the people from Tiance's left guard who robbed the grain trucks transported into the capital outside the city and want to transport them."
As we entered the city, we were met by Xu Yelu, the commander of the Xicheng soldiers and horses, who led his troops to block the west gate of the Han Dynasty and demanded that they hand over their grain carts. The two sides disagreed and started fighting."
"The King of Han has raised a group of bandits!" Yan Qing said angrily: "They are really becoming more and more useless!"
Listening to the discussion of his men, Wang Xian did not speak, but squinted his eyes in the direction of the west gate of Han Dynasty, because he saw another army coming to support, and judging by their appearance, they should be the guards of the Han Palace.
"Hit me hard!" With an order, the guards of the Han Palace rushed into the battle group with iron rods. As long as they were not from Tiance's left guard, they knocked them down with sticks. Because neither side had any soldiers before.
Blade, this time Xu Yelu's men suffered a big loss. Soon they were beaten to pieces, and countless people had their hands and feet broken off.
Seeing the tragic situation of his men in mourning, Xu Yelu's eyes were split open, and he yelled at the leader of the guards of the Han Palace: "Wei Xian, are you going to rebel? How dare you do such a cruel thing!"
The man named Wei Xian was the commander of the King of Han's right guard. Hearing this, he sneered and said: "You dare to touch my people in the Han Dynasty. It should be a death penalty. It's just the prince's kindness that only gives you such a light punishment!"
"Don't try to confuse right and wrong!" Xu Yelu said angrily: "They were obviously the ones who robbed the army rations first!"
"That's not called robbing military rations! It's only natural to serve as soldiers to eat!" Wei Xian said plausibly: "Since the Ministry of Revenue does not give us military rations, we can only find our own way." Then he flicked his horsewhip and said: "Enter the city!
"
A group of soldiers from the Han Palace pushed the grain cart and marched into the city in a show of force. Xu Yelu's face turned livid with anger, and he clenched his fists again and again, but in the end he did not stop him. He just ordered his men to rescue the injured.
Evacuated the city gate.
After the chaos passed, the flow of people at Hanxi Gate finally resumed, but they were obviously shocked by the scene just now. The bustling scene in the past was gone. Almost no one dared to make loud noises, and the atmosphere was very depressed.
"Let's go into the city." Wang Xian, who had witnessed the whole process, frowned in a Sichuan shape. He had read intelligence that the people in the Han Palace were now lawless, but no matter how rich his imagination, he could not imagine that they were already lawless.
To this extent.
When he entered the capital and walked on the familiar streets on horseback, he obviously felt that the market was much deserted. Many shops were simply closed, and even those who were open for business had sad faces.
"What's going on?" Wang Xian asked curiously: "Have those soldiers from the Han Palace already started to rob shops?"
"This is not the work of the Han Palace," Wu Wei quickly replied, "but the work of Ji Gang."
"What did he do?" Wang Xian asked in a deep voice.
"These days, Ji Gang's people are searching for spies all over the city. His minions have arrested many of us without saying anything. They have also extended their black hands to businessmen and used various methods to extort money. For example, they rushed into stores first and used the name of spies to
Arrest the shop owner, and then hint that the family will use money to redeem the person. If the money is not given, the person arrested will be tortured to death. Only by paying the money can the person be exempted from torture. If you want to get the person out, you have to go bankrupt..."
Wu Wei sighed and said: "In short, these two are crazy, they are all crazy."
"Go back to the Yamen." At this moment, Wang Xian's anger had been replaced by surprise. He asked someone to tell his family and went straight back to the Zhenfusi Yamen...
Outside the Fusi Yamen in Beizhen, there was still a crowd of people. The Jin Yiwei at the door stood upright. Suddenly, they heard the sound of horse hooves at the street entrance. The Jin Yiwei officers and soldiers were about to set up their horses vigilantly, but they saw the leading cavalry holding the reins of the horses.
, show your body!
"It's your lord!" The guards in royal robes were surprised and happy. They knelt down on one knee and said in unison: "Kowtow to your lord, I welcome you back to the Yamen!"
"Thank you for your hard work!" Wang Xian nodded and rode in!
Nothing could be seen from outside the yamen, but as soon as he entered the yamen, Wang Xian could not control his anger again - no wonder only Wu Wei and Yan Qing went to the river to pick him up. It turned out that Erhei, Zhou Yong, and Zhu
9. Zhou Yi and others were all injured, ranging from broken muscles and broken bones to severe bruises and swollen faces. In order to prevent themselves from getting angry as soon as they got off the boat, of course they could not go to greet them.
"Sir..." When all the cronies saw Wang Xian coming back, they were all excited. Even a tough guy like Zhu Jiuye couldn't help but burst into tears. The ordinary officers and soldiers of Beizhen Fusi started sobbing directly.
, just like a child who was bullied and finally got his parents back.
Wang Xian comforted the officers and soldiers with a few gentle words, and Wu Wei interrupted: "At least let me wash my face and change my clothes first." The officers and soldiers surrounding him dispersed.
Seeing his men so awake, Wang Xian didn't bother to wash his face. He closed the door and asked, "Can we talk now?"
"Hey..." All the close friends in the room sighed in unison.
"It's like this. Your Excellency left the capital, and Ji Gang's group of disciples launched a counterattack." Wu Weihen said: "We spent half a year to establish strongholds inside and outside the capital, and the spies we planted were all attacked.
Their destruction. Up to seven or eight points a day could be destroyed, and more than a hundred people were arrested. Jiuye and the others led people to put out fires everywhere, and they did it countless times with Ji Gang's people... After all, we were still single with a small number of people, and finally fell.
We ended up getting injured and failed to protect our power."
"Sir..." Everyone said with shame, "We have a great responsibility."
"If the power falls, it can be rebuilt. If you have three strengths and two weaknesses, where can I find such a group of life and death brothers?" Although Wang Xian had a straight face, he had already entered the role of the governor of Beizhen Fusi Town.
"Sir..." This call was full of emotion.
"But we, Beizhen Fusi, are not to be insulted lightly!" Wang Xian said solemnly: "Whatever they have done to me, I will pay back tenfold in the future!"
"Repay tenfold!" the brothers shouted in unison, sweeping away the depressed atmosphere.
However, he was angry and angry. To deal with a huge enemy like Ji Gang, especially when the King of Han also showed his fangs, Wang Xian had to make plans...
After comforting the injured brothers, Wang Xian, Wu Wei, Yan Qing and Yang Rong entered the security room.
"I introduced you just now." Wang Xian said to Yan Qing and Wu Weidao: "Now I have to introduce it again. General Yang has a reputation as a wise general in Shanxi. If it were not for this chance meeting, I would not be able to recruit him."
The three met again, and they all knew that Wang Xian had directly introduced Yang Rong into the highest think tank circle. Wu Wei and Yan Qing were better off, because the same scene had already happened to Yan Qing once. But on Yang Rong's side
, but he was so moved. He thought that as an outsider like him, who was still unclear about Zhu Meigui, Wang Xian would be a hard-working person at best even if he used himself, but he didn’t expect that he would directly pull him into the core.
power level.
In an instant, the crowd of four to fifty people suddenly felt like they would die for their confidants.
