The outer city of Linqing has gradually settled down.
As the cavalry soldiers entered the city, the bandits fled, and the gangs of scoundrels in the city who fished in troubled waters also dispersed. At this time, the people from the inspection department began to go out in large numbers and began to search for the thieves who had slipped through the door from house to house.
The remaining 100-household guard in the inner city guard station was also divided into several small banners and began patrolling to maintain public order in the city.
In short, the social security in the city has stabilized.
Of course, such a big thing happened, and the number of casualties inside and outside the city exceeded a thousand. Even if the Cao army won a complete victory in this battle, dozens of people were still killed.
War is so cruel, and this kind of sweeping sweep may seem blood-curdling, but in the end it will cause casualties.
The Linqing Rebellion was swept away in an unprecedented and devastating manner, and both Chen Jingxuan and Jin Yiwei were surprised.
Chen Jingxuan and Zhao Wenzhao thought that it would be smoother. After all, the strength of the two sides changed. Before the officers and soldiers could react, the bandits could cause trouble to one side with their bravery. But when the actual organized army encountered
, they will soon realize that pure bloody courage cannot be relied upon.
The bandits paid a bloody price for their immaturity this time, but maybe it won't be that simple next time.
This is the conclusion that Feng Ziying and Zhang Jin came to respectively, but no one cares about this. That will all happen in the future, maybe three years, maybe five years. By then, who will be still there? Who can tell clearly?
Feng You and the others watched Feng Ziying step into the door of Feng's house with expressions that were difficult to describe.
Such an incredible scene was accomplished almost overnight. Feng You felt that he had underestimated this brother Keng too much before.
But when he saw the little flag from Jinyiwei following Feng Ziying step by step, as if he was escorting her, Feng You really couldn't figure out how Brother Keng did it overnight.
Feng You was certainly puzzled, but Jia Yucun and Xue Jun were even more shocked.
Especially Jiayu Village.
He was originally extremely passionate about fame, wealth and career, and this time he came to Beijing with the intention of trying again no matter what, so he tried to please Lin Ruhai at all costs, and finally got this opportunity. Unexpectedly, the twelve or thirteen-year-old young man in front of him actually
He is so capable that even Jin Yiwei is willing to protect him.
He doesn't know what's weird here, but there is no doubt that this young man has a good background. It's just that General Shenwu, let alone the retired general after Wu Xun, even if he is in office now, it is impossible for Jin Yiwei to be so respectful.
ah.
Jia Yucun is still aware of these royal eagle dogs, and he has his eyes set high above his head. In addition to being somewhat restrained when facing the civil servants in Beijing and China, ordinary local officials are somewhat afraid of these people.
As for Xue Jun, not to mention, merchants, even imperial merchants, are the main targets of this group of Jin Yiwei who take advantage of the situation to find trouble and blackmail.
The Xue family was often targeted by such people when they were in Jinling. Although they were not serious, things like this that happened from time to time were always frightening, and now Jin Yiwei has become this person's target.
Guarded?
Even Feng Ziying herself was a little confused and didn't know why the situation turned out like this.
He didn't know if this was because he had gone too far, but even so, at least Jin Yiwei wouldn't be like this, right?
If I really want to be exposed, I don’t know what the consequences will be.
But now he is riding a tiger and is in trouble.
What Feng Ziying didn't know was that his previous skillful operation had made several people a little unpredictable about him, and they didn't know who was standing behind him.
Governor Qiao Yingjia, who was regarded by several other parties as his biggest "backer", was also wondering how Feng Ziying could get involved with Jin Yiwei? And why did Chen Jingxuan, the chief water transport officer who had either pushed or delayed the matter, suddenly become so concerned about the matter?
Are you getting active?
Chen Jingxuan is also fearful, Qiao Yingjia's sudden change of temperament is unpredictable, is Jin Yiwei's intervention a matchmaker for the Feng family boy?
Similarly, for Zhang Jin, when it was discovered that Feng Ziying had entered and left the residences of Chen Jingxuan and Qiao Yingjia, Chen Qiao and Chen Qiao changed their attitudes drastically and joined forces to trick Li Sancai, causing Li Sancai's face and Feng Ziying's image to be greatly damaged.
It suddenly became unfathomable.
No matter what the truth is, Feng Ziying can only hold on tight now.
"Brother Keng, is it over like this?" A group of people sat down in the hall.
The Jin Yiwei sent Feng Ziying to him, looked at Feng You, and then said goodbye and left.
After experiencing this wave, although it only lasted two days and two nights, for this group of people, even if they had to live and die together, the feeling was still somewhat different.
Moreover, everyone knows the basics. The Feng family is also a noble family, and the Jia family, the Xue family and the Feng family can barely be considered to be close friends. With such a friendship, it is naturally extraordinary.
"It's almost the same." Feng Ziying nodded, "Uncle You, and Uncle Fu, thank you for your hard work. Master Jia, Mr. Xue, are you okay too?"
Several people quickly thanked me.
"When did the bandits in the house escape?"
"Some of them left during the day yesterday, and some of the others left this morning. As soon as there was any movement this morning, these guys were like wasps that had their nest stung. They immediately got up and ran out. By that time, there was already chaos in the city. Everyone guessed it.
The army should have arrived, but I didn’t expect it to arrive so quickly..."
Feng You hesitated for a moment, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he shook his head and did not say anything, probably because he felt it was inappropriate in this situation.
"Everyone is fine. Fortunately, the officers and soldiers arrived in time." Feng Ziying didn't say much.
However, everyone knows that a lot of things must have happened in these two days and nights. The Cao army's ability to attack Linqing with such rapidity has exceeded the best expectations of the few people who stayed in the secret room.
According to the results of their discussion, it would be great if the officers and soldiers could arrive within three days, and the drinking water and dry food in the secret room were prepared based on seven days.
But in just two days, it all came crashing down.
They were all curious about how Feng Ziying persuaded the Governor of Water Transport to send troops, and how he was able to establish a relationship with Jin Yiwei, and this relationship seemed to be not very shallow.
After Feng Ziying left, Jia Yucun and Xue Jun discussed with each other and both felt that the difficulty was too high and the possibility was very low.
The Governor of Water Transport is not that easy to meet, and it is even more difficult to persuade him to send troops.
They even hoped that this gang of thieves would be unable to stay any longer and leave the Feng Mansion, but of course this was also a low hope.
I never thought that something that seemed impossible would come true so smoothly.
"Master Jia, there is still some chaos in the city. If you want to enter Beijing, it is best to delay for a day or two. The passing ships on the pier have been temporarily suspended. This is mainly to prevent the bandits from escaping through the water." Feng Ziying introduced.
.
It has been discovered that many religious bandits come from southern Shandong, which is also a rather strange situation.
The spies installed by the Jin Yiwei within the bandits also confirmed some of Wang Chao Zuo's explanations. This time, the White Lotus cult bandits' arrangements were a bit chaotic and hasty. It seemed that they were not prepared for a rebellion at all, or that they had no such idea at all.
, but more like a show-off attempt.
Of course, this may have a lot to do with the fact that the harsh demands of the tax supervisors had a great impact on the weavers, kiln workers, laborers and merchants around Linqing. This was the trigger.
It is said that there were some disagreements and disputes among the high-level leaders of the cult bandits about the next step, which ultimately led to the delay in making any decision. This gave the government and army an opportunity. Otherwise, if they had taken advantage of the situation yesterday and captured the inner city, the situation would have been very different.
It's completely different.
"Thank you Mr. Feng for reminding me. As long as the public security in the city is no longer a problem and we feel at ease, it doesn't matter if we stay for an extra day or two." Jia Yucun smiled and responded: "I just need to tell the people who are still on the boat.
