"I think when my team was just opened, there were only a dozen people and seven or eight guns. When the imperial army chased me, I was dizzy. Thanks to Aqing's wife, she told me to hide myself in the water tank."
On the official road, Jia Liu, wearing a yellow mandarin jacket, rode on a white horse and shook his head.
Pedestrians along the way turned sideways and did not dare to look directly.
Official authority penetrates people.
The white horse was brought back specially by Master Fu Sheng'a when he was passing through Chongzhou. Not only did he return the horse, Master Fu also gave Jia Tulu a hundred taels of gold as a gift, which was a good expense on the road.
Jia Liu didn't think it was too little. He knew that Mr. Fu was in a tight situation right now.
As usual, he should first go to the Governor's Yamen to pay a visit to the Governor, and then set off for Beijing after being lectured by the Governor.
It is a pity that the Governor personally led the Guizhou soldiers who came for reinforcements yesterday to go to Menggu Bridge, another important pass, to defend the enemy soldiers.
This move is an attempt to make up for the situation.
After all, the emperor was very angry after the Jinchuan defeat.
Frontline generals including Agui, Fukang'an, Ha Guoxing, Mingliang, etc. are now making "active" deployments, but they are all trying to fool the capital.
With such a failure and such huge losses, how can we still have the strength to "recover" the lost ground?
Don't expect to be able to breathe again for half a year.
Lord Boqing'e ignored the busy military affairs and personally came to see Uneng Ijatulu out of the city.
Chairman Li didn't come, he might be busy with the matter of purchasing an official position.
Seeing Master Bo's sneaky look, Jia Liu knew that something was up.
Sure enough, something happened.
"When the emperor sees you, he will definitely ask you about the situation here."
Master Bo wanted to speak but stopped.
Jia Liu did not hesitate and immediately expressed his loyalty: "I understand this humble position, sir, don't worry!"
"That's good, that's good,"
Mr. Bo trusted Jia Liu, so he told Jia Tulu one more thing.
"Yesterday the emperor sent a decree, asking the governor to redeem Wen Zhongtang and Hai Dutong from the bandits and wait for the bodies of the fallen soldiers."
Jia Liu said smoothly: "It should be so. How can we let loyal ministers and good generals die in the wilderness?"
Having said this, he paused and looked up at Mr. Bo.
There is something in the old boy's words.
"Dongge, no, brother Shikai, don't you have a way over there? Do you think so?"
Mr. Bo actually wanted to take advantage of Jia Liu's visit to the capital to set up a direct line with the thieves!
Vice President Bo has a bone in the back of his head.
Absolutely not!
Lao Bo wants to directly establish a line with the opponent, how can Jia Liu eat both sides?
However, there were 5,000 or 6,000 Qing soldiers killed in the battle, and Qianlong ordered that the corpses be redeemed, so the redemption fee was prohibitive.
Not to mention Wen Fu, the body of Hailancha, Qianlong's favorite general, was worth thirty to fifty thousand taels.
If you operate it well, it is not impossible to make millions in one sitting.
Jia Liu was very angry, what Qianlong would call him to the capital now, it would be done later.
However, you can’t have your cake and eat it too.
After Jia Liu tactfully expressed that he had no way out with the bandits, Mr. Bo was a little disappointed, but Shikai Xiandi refused to let him make a fortune to make up for the losses. What can he do? Will he fall out?
He had no choice but to say a few more polite words before leaving in frustration.
Jia Liu hesitated for a moment, not wanting to call Lao Bo back, but wondering whether to give this opportunity to make a fortune to Lao Li.
But thinking that this matter was ordered by Qianlong, so many people knew about it, and it was such a solemn matter to redeem fallen soldiers, he could no longer be unscrupulous and make money from it.
There is also a way to steal.
Immediately the order was sent to set off for Beijing.
Chongzhou is a war zone. Although there are many speculative businessmen, the market is obviously not as lively as Chengdu, so Jia Liu plans to purchase Sichuan local products in Chengdu.
After all, this trip back to Beijing can be regarded as a homecoming. I would be sorry if I didn’t bring a few carts of local specialties back to the Eight Banners folks in Xiliu Hutong, as well as my father, sister, brother-in-law, and others. In addition, I have to bring some delicious food to the two babies.
nephew.
After purchasing three large carts of Sichuan local products, Jia Liu took out a stamp and asked Yang Zhi to go to a bank with two soldiers to withdraw five thousand taels of silver.
He led people to watch from a distance.
This is a test to see if you can get money in this chapter.
If you cannot get it, destroy these seals immediately without leaving any future trouble.
As a result, Yang Zhi and three others came out carrying money bags.
Gu Bing
When Jia Liu saw this, he quickly asked someone to help him carry the silver into the car. Looking at the ingots of white silver, he was really happy.
Jumped on the carriage, hugged Goudan and ordered to continue setting off.
After riding on the carriage for more than an hour, Jia Liu felt uncomfortable, so he jumped out of the carriage and rode. Sure enough, he felt very different.
Pedestrians along the way, whether they were officials, soldiers, or civilians, immediately became very respectful when they saw Jia Liu wearing a yellow mantle, with envy and awe in their eyes.
Just like this, they traveled during the day and stayed at a free inn at night. Half a month later, Jia Liu and his party entered Hanzhong Prefecture in Shaanxi Province.
Jia Liu, who had long since stopped showing off his interest in riding horses, lay in Hua Gou Xiong's arms and fell asleep, with a copy of "The First Collection of Imperial Poems of Qianlong" covering his face.
In order to improve his cultural literacy, Jia Liu really studied hard in the past two days, in order to make his poetry friend Qianlong highly affirm his literary talents.
There is a poem written by Jia Liu last night on the notebook under Hua Gouxiong's butt.
Two sentences.
The Qing Dynasty was really big, from east to west.
Jia Liu hasn't thought of the next two lines yet, because the two lines above are too good and the tone is too high, making it difficult to pick up.
When he was sleeping soundly, Yang Zhi's voice came to his ears: "Master, my stomach hurts and I need to poop!"
Being woken up, Jia Liu was furious: "Damn it, lazy people poop a lot."
Reluctantly, we ordered to stop to make it easier for everyone to go.
Yang Zhi covered his stomach, took the straw paper and went into the forest.
"Liuzi, do you think my father would be sad to see me like this?"
Chang Bingzhong's injury is basically healed, but his walking is a little uneven.
"How could it be? It's too late to be happy,"
While chatting with Lao Chang, he suddenly heard Yang Zhigui shouting: "Master, rebel! Master, rebel!"
This loud shout frightened Jia Liu so much that he fell down on the spot.
Old Chang was so frightened that he quickly climbed under the car.
The guarding Sauron soldiers, flag soldiers, and camp soldiers were all good soldiers. When they heard that there were rebels, they immediately picked up their weapons and looked around.
A dozen breaths without the sound of a gunshot.
Jia Liu patted his butt and stood up, when he saw Shuan Zhu running over with his pants in a panic.
There is a ghost rebel behind!
"What are you talking about!"
Jia Liu was so angry that he wanted to kick Yang Zhi several times.
"No, young master, there is really a rebel, over there, over there!"
Seeing that the young master didn't believe it, Yang Zhi quickly pointed to the depths of the forest.
Um?
In broad daylight, can there really be rebels in Shaanxi in the peaceful and prosperous age?
"superior!"
Jia Liu waved his hand, and Madri and Liu De quickly led the men to hold the spears and the bows to move toward the forest.
Under the protection of Yang Yuchun, Jia Liu also hunched forward quietly.
Hua Gou Xiong was also loyal. When he saw something was wrong, he quickly climbed out of the car and followed Mr. Jia with his butt twisting.
But there are no ghosts in the forest.
There is a very grand tomb beside the forest, it looks like it was newly built.
If he hadn't discovered it in time, Jia Liu almost stepped on the landmine planted by Shuan Zhu.
After Liu De, Madri and the others searched around, they came over and shook their heads at Mr. Jia.
"Where are the rebels!"
Jia Liu is about to have an attack. It's just that the Shuan Zhu thing doesn't work. Don't hold him back.
"Master, it's true, look!"
In order to prove his innocence, Yang Zhi pulled the young master to the tomb and pointed to the tombstone erected in front for the young master to see for himself.
"What are you looking at?"
Jia Liuchao looked at the tombstone and saw that the owners of the tombstone were a couple named Hu. One was born in the 35th year of Kangxi's reign and the other was born in the 37th year of Kangxi's reign. They were not rebels.
Just as he was about to have a seizure, Shuan Zhu pointed to the two big characters on the tombstone and said with certainty: "Master, if this isn't a rebel, it's something else!"
Um?
Jia Liu was stunned.
The two big characters Shuan Zhu refers to are "Huang Kao".
