Chapter 86 - Set the storm
Lan Yiqing, Lai Yuanjue and other bandit leaders gathered tens of thousands of people in the mountains of Huichao Prefectures, and formed a village in the dangerous place, with a joint camp of 800 miles.
Eight hundred miles of mountains! When a hundred thousand troops were scattered in, no one could see many people. Moreover, the soldiers in Guangxi had to suppress the local natives, and most of them could not be transferred except for a few elite troops.
Guangdong's troops are also very involved in all aspects. After all, Yin Zhengmao can mobilize at most more than 50,000 troops.
With the level of Xu Wei and Xu's military advisor, you can naturally see it at a glance. With such a small number of people, there is no other way except to concentrate superior forces and directly attack the core area of the rebels.
Yin Zhengmao was greedy and his military talent was the best among civil officials. How could he divide his troops into thin air and lose his already stretched forces?
"Do you think he is stupid?" Zhao Hao asked with a sip of tea and smiled.
"Oh..." Xu Wei suddenly realized, pointed at Zhao Hao and cursed, "I just said he can't be so stupid. Isn't it delicious to push from Huizhou all the way east to Chaozhou? The governor of Guangdong and Guangxi wants to teach a small Jieyang County a lesson, so how can he personally take the army to suppress the enemy? It turns out that it was all the rumors made by you!"
"So that's how it is!" Paul Tang, who was serving tea and pouring water on the side, suddenly realized.
It turned out that the young master was seven points true and three points false, and he used the false things to scare Lin Daoqian. Lin Daoqian believed it was true, so in order to save his life, he naturally had to work hard for Zhao Hao.
He couldn't help but worry, "Will Lin Daoqian be extremely smart? Can he see through it when he turns back?"
"He is just a pirate who recruits the amnesty. No matter how shrewd he is, he is just a little smart. His eyes are always confined to Chaozhou Prefecture, and he is completely disgusted with the officialdom in the provincial capital. Not to mention the Governor's Mansion far away in Zhaoqing." Xu Wei shook his head and smiled, "Besides, my son is so cautious. It is said that he has to change three places to sleep at night. When he heard this news, he would rather believe in it than not. Moreover, he is still in such a big business now, and he will never bet on his fortune."
"I understand." Paul Tang suddenly realized.
"There is another point. Are you doing less stupid things that the government army has done incredible?" Zhao Hao smiled teasingly and said, "Lin Daoqian and the government army have been dealing with ten years. I wonder if they shouldn't do what they should have done and do what they shouldn't do?"
"Haha, that's right." Tang Baolu echoed and said, "I heard that the Tumu Fort back then was because Wang Zhen suddenly wanted to return home in glory. He had to drag an army of 800,000 to detour his hometown, so he was done, right?"
"Hehe, the Ming Dynasty will be over sooner or later." Xu Wei sneered and asked Zhao Hao again: "What should I do if the governor's army doesn't come then? Are you going to make a plan change and you'll be able to make a comeback?"
"I will tell him that I spent a lot of money to find out from the Governor's aides that it was fake to divide the troops, to confuse the bandits. As long as we pay a lot of military labor, the Governor will write off the old accounts..." Zhao Haoyun said calmly.
"Okay, shameless enough. I'm really going to be sold by you, and I'll count the money for you." Xu Wei stretched his waist and got up, ended the night talk and said, "I'm going to sleep with the little beauty."
"Don't forget to figure out where the person asked him to send him." Zhao Hao told him, took a shower, went back to the house to sleep with his sisters.
As for Paul Tang, who was alone here, he had to take a shower and go to bed...
~~
The next morning, the governor's fleet left the lower tail, and Zhao Hao naturally followed.
Before leaving, looking at Lin Dao's white face, a pair of dark circles appeared on his face. Mr. Zhao couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that Xiao Linzi had not been asleep last night.
That's right. There are too many things that cannot be understood in the future. He had to force him to give up thinking completely and lie down and let him beat him to finish it.
The next day, the fleet returned to Chenghai County, entered the Han River, and arrived at the Fucheng a few days later.
When they learned that the governor had arrived, Liu Zixing, Yue Yunpeng and others knew that they would be too much trouble, so they showed up and persuaded the people surrounding the government office to leave.
Mr. Zhao, who had regained his freedom, quickly went out to greet the officials and gentry of Chaozhou Prefecture, and as soon as he passed Fenghuangzhou, he met Lin Zhongcheng's fleet.
When he came to Lin Run, he heard Lin Zhongcheng laughing loudly and said, "Hahaha, it's really where we don't meet in life. Zhuang Yuan Gong, we're meeting again."
Zhao Shouzheng couldn't help but feel ashamed and claimed to be guilty.
"It's okay, Chaozhou has been in chaos recently. How can it be if no one is in charge? It's right for you not to leave." Lin Run would certainly not care about him, and looked at his arm hanging on his chest with concern and said, "How is it recovering?"
"It's nothing big, it's not easy to lift chopsticks and pens, so it's not easy." Zhao Shouzheng actually didn't have to hang his arms at all, but he was guilty and had to give him more sympathy.
"You've done a good job. Let's talk back and forth. I'll say a few words to everyone first." After Lin Run said that, he turned his gaze to the Chaozhou officials and gentry who had kneeled all over the ground.
"Please get up, please." Everyone heard him say slowly and clearly:
"Before, the hasty replacement of the Hou Prefecture was to ignore the result of public opinion, which led to a series of chaos, so the main responsibility was not on you..." Lin Run set the chaos in the past two months in front of the provincial officials and the officials and gentry in the palace.
The purpose of his coming was to calm people's hearts and get Chaozhou City and even Chaozhou Prefecture back on track as soon as possible.
As for whether he would offend the Governor, Lin Run didn't care at all. He had already given face if he didn't study his book.
As expected, as soon as this statement came out, the officials and gentry in Chaozhou were obviously relaxed a lot of nervous expressions. It was all fake to say that they were not afraid of the province's accountability. If they really met the governor who was on behalf of the Tianzhang, they were actually afraid of death.
Fortunately, Lin Zhongcheng took the responsibility as soon as he came. The officials and gentry breathed a sigh of relief and quickly apologized for guilt, saying that they did not notice the chaos in advance and did not protect Master Fu Zun well, so they asked the Chief Secretary to punish him.
Lin Run naturally generously stated that no matter what, winning the Chaozhou defense battle is a great achievement. Even if you have any mistakes before, you can still lose your merits. Everyone should put down your burden and look forward.
Chaozhou officials and gentry bowed to the teachings, and several were still grateful and cried out with a cry...
So under the main theme of putting the overall situation first, the trouble caused by Prefect Li was put aside. Let’s talk about when the clues were found when the Chaozhou Prefecture, the Censorate and the Jinyiwei people found the clues.
Before that, everyone should eat and drink, and life should continue.
So from this point of view, it would be better that Master Li would never be able to find it.
~~
After the grand welcoming ceremony, Chaozhou officials and gentlemen welcomed the Chief of the Central Committee into the city.
After the reception banquet, Lin Run returned directly to his own business. Chaozhou City naturally had a governor's headquarters, and the scale was quite large.
Lin Run took a short bath, changed into a thin summer robe, and met Zhao Shouzheng in the signing room with cicadas roaring.
"How is it? I didn't expect that Chaoshan guys are so difficult to deal with, right?" Lin Run joked, and walked around the desk and came to the row of official hat chairs against the wall, and sat with him.
"I really didn't expect it." Zhao Shouzheng smiled bitterly and said, "You don't know. People are staring outside the yamen day and night, just as if I'm afraid I will run away secretly."
"But it is a miracle that you can get the love of Chaozhou people in such a short time." Lin Run couldn't help but laugh and said, "Hey, why did I say 're Again'?"
The two couldn't help but smile at each other, and at the same time they remembered the first meeting in the Governor Yingtian, Nanjing a few years ago.
It was raining at that time, and the flood situation in Wuzhong was very serious, so Lin Run was naturally worried. In addition, he had always hated the nerd who was not good at seeing the nerd, so he would certainly be very resistant to the sudden inexperienced new top scholar in the court to serve as the magistrate of Kunshan County, where the flood control task was the most difficult.
Therefore, the atmosphere of the first meeting is definitely not harmonious.
To be honest, after the school entrance exam, Lin Run did not have a high evaluation of Zhao Shouzheng. Although Zhao Shouzheng obviously did his homework in the questions he asked him, his answers could only be considered as normal, and it sounded like an endorsement.
The slightly stagnant thoughts and the scholarly response made Lin Run feel bad. He even prepared to go to Kunshan himself to make up for Zhao Shouzheng...
However, the result was that he was very wrong. Zhao Zhuangyuan, who unexpectedly converged the people of Kunshan in a very short time, led them to block the flood, and then created the miracle of "one month to form a dike". He finally built a three-hundred-mile dike, turning the beggar Kunshan, which was severely flooded every year, into a land of fish and rice.
Although the most important reason for Zhao Zhuangyuan has a good son, Zhao Shouzheng's achievements and abilities must not be erased.
Moreover, Zhao Shou created another miracle in Chaozhou. This time, he didn’t have his son’s help?
Therefore, Lin Zhongcheng praised with conscience: "I am worthy of being the top scholar, it is extraordinary! It turns out that gold will shine wherever I go."
Mr. Zhao blushed and said humbly: "The officials have just done their duty."
"Not many people remember to be an official now." Lin Run couldn't help but sigh and said, "No wonder the people of Chaozhou are reluctant to leave you."
"The officials are just... just for the right time. I see that they are also in a hurry to seek medical treatment. I don't care whether the straw can help my life. I will hold on to it first. I will calm down after this period of time." Zhao Shouzheng hurriedly smiled helplessly and said, "I don't know that they are putting me on the fire and roasting me."
"Oh?" Lin Run was stunned, then he understood what he meant, and waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, the governor Hou is governor Hou, you are you, your situation is completely different."
"Oh, no matter what, the lower officials deeply realized the helplessness of the governor Hou. It's really 'I can't argue with you, but sigh with both hands'. But don't worry, I've already told those people that if they make any unfair requests to you, I will have to jump into the river to understand my mind."
