I'm a detective for Dongchang

The Jiangyin County Mansion located in the city was established by Da Jin after recovering Jiangyin City. This mansion used to be the governor's mansion where the original Bagan town lord lived. Jiangyin is rich in geomantic omen.

In the main room, a man dressed in red is at the head, with a handsome face, two sword eyebrows slanted into the temples, a pair of phoenix eyes looking forward, a high nose bridge, and thin lips tightly closed. Jiangyin's court officials are listed on both sides. Although the sound of cannons was heard in the distance, everyone knew that Da Jin's reinforcements had arrived, and they seemed to be elite soldiers in the capital. After the remaining enemies in the city were wiped out, not only Jiangyin, but Da Jin would also take advantage of the situation to advance south. This southern expedition can be said to be a success!

The atmosphere in the hall was solemn, and the person sitting at the head was Yuan Yanxi, the governor of the factory who came from the capital. At this moment, he was sitting there with a gloomy expression, and the civil servants and generals on both sides were silent.

Qian Youan, who was kneeling in the hall, also lowered his head nervously. He knew the situation in Jiangyin very well. He knew exactly who Mao Mingzhong listened to and what he asked him to do.Originally, after learning that Bagan broke through the city gate, he knew that he was powerless, and he wanted to please Mao Mingzhong so that his family would not be ruined in the future.

But when Da Jin's reinforcements arrived, Qian You'an knew that the situation had changed drastically, and Mao Mingzhong was gone.

So he wanted to express his loyalty to the visitor quickly and cut himself on the spot, but when he put the sword on his neck, he couldn't let go of that hand. The scene of Deng Bingnan's blood splattered on the ground just now made him hesitate, but This hesitation made him the first person caught by the reinforcements.With a dead face, all he can think about now is all kinds of torture. If he can be beheaded with a single knife, I am afraid it will be the favor of the supervisor of the factory.

after all……

The prestigious Dongchang has never shown mercy to anyone.

"Master Qian, there is no need to do this!"

Just as Qian You'an was thinking about how the big factory supervisor would punish him, a voice came to his ears.

"Master, although you said that this city is not your fault, but in the eyes of this governor, the master still has the merit of dedicating the city..."

Could it be that the governor of the factory was going to humiliate himself in this way, just when Qian Youan couldn't understand the meaning of Yuan Yanxi's words, he only heard the handsome man say again:
"Come on, hurry up and untie him!"

what! ?

Now Qian You'an was completely confused... What the hell is going on here?

Looking at Qian Youan who was kneeling on the ground with a puzzled face, Yuan Yanxi sneered in his heart.

Chang Chonghu wanted to give this Jiangyin to Bagan without anyone knowing it, to show his determination and attitude to win over Zhu Duorang, and sent people to blackmail the local merchants and landlords, not only ordering them to buy food, grass and armaments in the three nearby provinces at high prices, but also Exorbitant taxes were imposed on them, thus monopolizing all the reserves of the imperial court in the hands of their own people.With the war at the border, Jiangyin was only occupied, and the reinforcements in Jingzhou were unable to receive the rations for a long time, and they could not last for a few days even after they broke out of the camp. Without supplies, it was a fatal blow to the army.

Yuan Yanxi had received news from Anzhuang a long time ago, so he applied for the Southern Expedition in person, in order to eradicate Chang Chonghu's right-hand man in Jiangyin——Mao Mingzhong.

"Factory Superintendent, Jiangyin's garrison Mao Mingzhong is asking for a visit..." Lei Ming came in to report in a low voice.

Can't wait?

Yuan Yanxi raised his eyebrows, "Let him come in!"

"Let Jiangyin guard Mao Mingzhong!"

"Jiangyin's defense Mao Mingzhong see Yuan Factory Superintendent!" He seemed a little cautious in his words and actions. He clearly planned everything very carefully. Nantong Pass had already set up numerous ambushes, and Chang Shan, a close relative of the Chang family, and Chang Yao, a distant relative, participated in the battle in person. How could it be possible for this group of reinforcements from the capital to arrive first.

Mao Mingzhong didn't dare to raise his head, thinking about Yuan Yanxi's weight, whether Chang Shan and Chang Yao had already been arrested?He is not considered an old fritter steeped in officialdom, but he is also much more qualified than the kid at the head, Dongchang?snort!
The sky is high, the emperor is far away, the people are few and the public is more...

What can you do with me?
Mao Mingzhong was thinking about countermeasures, but Yuan Yanxi didn't let him get up, but made him kneel in front of him.

"The governor heard that at the south gate of the city, General Mao took the lead and entered the enemy's line. Only then did he keep the south gate intact, and with five thousand remnants, he killed nearly ten thousand Pu's troops..."

Staring at Mao Mingzhong who was kneeling on one knee, Yuan Yanxi frowned slightly. If someone else heard the news, they would definitely be impressed by his bravery. The hero who dared to lead the way, let alone others, was himself. Leading five thousand remnants of the army did not feel that he could withstand the desperate onslaught of tens of thousands of enemies.

As a general, Yuan Yanxi naturally appreciates such talents.

Haha, what a pity...he sneered in his heart.

"General Mao, not only impressed the common people, but also made Yuan Mou feel inferior." Then, he changed the subject, habitually tapped the table, and said in a cold tone: "But, why did I still hear that this time? The north gate and west gate of the city that were captured were severely understrength, while the other had only [-] enemy troops, and the east gate, which had not been captured like the south gate, had assembled tens of thousands of elite soldiers under the general's command."

"Yuan wants to hear it, General Mao...Which song is this?"

"I'm wronged." Mao Mingzhong didn't see any panic, he just curled his lips, bowed his hands and shouted that he was wronged.

"Mao does not have the ability to foretell, but in terms of the distribution of troops, Mao failed to predict this time and is willing to be punished."

"General Mao, don't worry, listen to the person who wronged you, what do you say?"

Yuan Yanxi motioned to Lei Ming, and after a while, a person lying on a stretcher was carried in.

Mao Mingzhong narrowed his eyes and glanced to the side, startled in his heart.

It's him? !
Jiang Guozhang.

"This Vice-General Jiang said something that contradicted what General Mao said. He also said...General Mao originally planned to dedicate Jiangyin to the current king of Bagan, Zhu Dalang, if..."

Yuan Yanxi pointed at Jiang Shizhong, but before he could finish speaking, Jiang Shizhong, who was killed or wounded more than half of his team, was angry at Mao Mingzhong and asked, as if an enemy had met him.

"General! Why don't you send troops!!"

Sensing the murderous intent in the opponent's eyes, Mao Mingzhong was speechless immediately, this person shouldn't be!It shouldn't be here!

If it was said that he only felt that Yuan Yanxi was difficult to deal with before, then facing the murderous intent in the eyes of his subordinates, he couldn't help but tremble when he spoke.

"National seal..."

The murderous intent emanating from Jiang Guozhang's body made everyone in the hall stunned, except for Yuan Yanxi's party. Qian You'an even stepped aside quickly, for fear of hurting himself.

When no one responded, Jiang Guozhang suddenly saw Jiang Guozhang sitting up from the stretcher with all his strength, struggling to 'climb' towards Mao Mingzhong:

"You bastard, ungrateful bastard, pay back the lives of our brothers in the army..."

When he could reach Mao Mingzhong's hand, he pulled out the sword from his waist and pointed it at the opponent. He didn't care where his upper body was. All he could think about was the corpses of thousands of Dajin soldiers outside the city and inside the city.

Just when he pointed his sword at Mao Mingzhong's neck and wanted to seal his throat with a sword, he was interrupted by Yuan Yanxi's stern voice, and the sword in his hand was instantly knocked off, and he fell to the ground with a plop before he could react.

"Vice General Jiang, it's important to take care of your health."

The strong wind and the sudden words lifted Jiang Shizhong up, and asked someone to take a soft seat to settle him aside, and asked the accompanying military doctor to diagnose and treat him.

This scene was in stark contrast to Mao Mingzhong who was kneeling on the ground waiting to be dealt with.

"Director Yuan, this Mao Mingzhong, who will avenge his kindness, first used the strategy of slowing down the army to trap our army in fire and water, and then killed thousands of brothers in the north of the city. If I don't kill him, how can I be worthy of the brothers who died in battle!!" He roared angrily .

Jiang Guozhang, who had been blinded by the hatred of his family and country, didn't care about other things. He struggled to get up, easily snatched the dagger from the waist of the person around him, and rushed forward with all his strength. The dagger fell into Mao Mingzhong's body in an instant.

"You..." Mao Mingzhong, who had been stabbed, didn't even come to scream for help, his eyes were as big as copper bells, and they were about to fall out of their sockets at any time.

It was only at this time that Kuangfeng came "long overdue", grabbed Jiang Guozhang's shoulders, and gently dragged him away.

And Mao Mingzhong fell to the ground slowly, trembling all over, is he going to die... no... no...

Seeing that the plan is about to be completed, those endless glory and wealth...

But after a while, the boundless darkness and countless figures overwhelmed him, waving his hands in horror, trying to drive away those innocent souls who were demanding their lives, shouting: "No, go away, go away..."

"Miao Wanhuo! When are you going to see it!?" Yuan Yanxi joked unhurriedly.

"Tsk!" Only one person jumped out from his right hand.

"I can't die just by looking at it." He caught Mao Mingzhong's pulse, curled his lips nonchalantly, and looked at Jiang Guozhang who was sitting on the chair, "I'm almost dying, and I want to kill people, I'm overthinking my power."

"It's not in the vitals, cut, I don't want to get my hands dirty."

"Hey, you! Come here and bandage him, remember, don't make him too comfortable, just leave your breath and go back to Beijing." After Miao Wanhuo gloated, he took his precious medicine pot and disappeared outside the courtyard.

Yuan Yanxi shook his head and asked Lei Ming, "How is the rest of the garrison?"

"Back to the master, there are still three thousand available, and the rest..." Lei Ming couldn't bear to continue.

With a bang, the table shattered, Yuan Yanxi stood up abruptly and strode out:

"Follow me to kill the enemy!"

"Boom, boom..."

In the early morning, the sound of drums reverberated in the school grounds. The sound of the drum was very urgent, and the sound of the drum beat everyone's heart.

"Assembly, emergency assembly..."

Amid the rapid drumming, the captains kept shouting loudly in front of the tarpaulin tents.

Amidst their shouts, the soldiers in the tent quickly put on their crimson blue military uniforms, and when they rushed out of the tent, they hurriedly took down their spears from the weapon racks in front of the tent. Put on the gunpowder pouch and the marching bag.

"Receive the marching supplies according to the regulations, and pay attention to checking the equipment!" They assembled quickly as if they were training, while the officers and assistants on the school ground kept shouting loudly.

"To get water here, everyone must fill up the water tank..." The soldiers and officials in charge of distributing supplies kept yelling so that no one would miss it. After all, these are life-saving things, just like the one-foot-high bamboo tube. The water tank is like a finished water tank, which is not very eye-catching, but on such a hot day, if you are thirsty on the march, you can all point to the bamboo water tank.

"Finally, the food has arrived."

"We are saved, reinforcements are coming!"

"I heard that the young master of the Marquis of Zhenyuan personally led the team to send troops to the south."

"What little master, that's the governor of the East Factory."

"It turns out that the governor of Dachang is not as terrible as the rumors said. Look at his posture, you can see that he is a general who has led soldiers and fought in battle."

"Brothers, let's cheer up and beat out the Bagan people! Let them experience the real power!"

Finally, when everything was ready, the remaining [-] garrison soldiers, according to Yuan Yanxi's words, left the school grounds in the city with their swords and guns in neat steps.

Go!Take the city back!

"The factory supervisor, plus the 5000 garrison, we have a total of about [-] people. The spies reported that in addition to the more than [-] people who have entered the city in Bagan, there are still more than [-] people who are marching here."

Yuan Yanxi frowned. The number of people was too far away. Jiangyin is now being attacked from east to west, which is equivalent to being attacked from both sides. How to keep the lives of the people safe is to break through the siege and join Prince Jing.

"Factory Superintendent!" Kuangfeng ran into the big tent, as if he had something important to report.

"Say!"

"Someone asked to see him outside, claiming to be from the Loyalty Self-Defense Battalion spontaneously formed by the people in the city."

Loyalty, Self-Defense Battalion?

"pass!"

half an hour later

For the Jiangyin people, they were a little surprised. Although they knew that one day, the loyal army would definitely go out, but they didn't expect it to be so soon.

At this time, the south gate of Jiangyin City was full of people. Thousands of people came here spontaneously to see off the loyal army. After all, most of them were locals from Jiangyin, and they watched them go to war. People on the side of the road watched their departure with tears in their eyes, especially the family members of the soldiers. They held their children and watched the troops going out on the side of the road, trying to find their family members from the crowd.There are always some people calling their husbands or sons' names, and some people keep stuffing eggs, fruits, biscuits and other food into the hands of the soldiers.

"Father, you must come back alive..."

"Boy, come back alive..."

"I want dad, dad..."

Amidst the people's cries, the atmosphere at the South Gate seemed a bit heavy, and Yuan Yanxi, who was riding on a horse, had a serious face.

Originally, he thought he would be able to see the scene of "pray for death in battle", but he didn't expect that those women would cry "come back alive". As tragic as parting from life and death.

"Stand at attention, everyone raise their heads!"

Yuan Yanxi, who was on a horse, rode his horse and ran to the foot of the south gate, shouting loudly at the soldiers with sad faces.

"Tell me, what is written on it!" The horsewhip in his hand pointed to the stone tablet embedded in the city wall of the south gate.

The Land of Loyalty!Each character on the stele is two feet square, so that everyone can clearly see these four characters.

"The Land of Loyalty!"

The voices of the sad-faced soldiers were a little messy and not very orderly.

"Louder, I can't hear you!"

"The Land of Loyalty!"

A thunderous roar finally burst out from the voices of the group of soldiers uniformly and powerfully, but Yuan Yanxi, who was riding on the horse, still shouted "I can't hear you!" He even shouted instinctively.

"The Land of Loyalty!"

"The Land of Loyalty!"

……

It wasn't just one person shouting, it wasn't just the officers and soldiers of the Loyalty Army shouting these four words, but everyone, everyone inside and outside the South Gate shouted loudly the four words that the hundred thousand Jiangyin people exchanged for with their lives and blood. words.All the voices merged into one voice. These simple but heavy words slowly dispelled the feelings of parting in people's hearts, and slowly dispelled people's lingering feelings for their loved ones.

Emotions can affect each other. When these simple four words continue to collide with people's souls, the fear in people's hearts gradually fades away, and there is only a kind of excitement that has never been seen before.When that inexplicable turmoil gathered in everyone's chest, someone did not know who sang there.

"The cloud follows the dragon, the wind follows the tiger, fame and wealth, dust and earth..."

This is a song that the people of Dajin are all too familiar with. Everyone in Dajin is familiar with this song. Hundreds of years ago, they sang this song to overthrow the rule of the old tyrannical monarch. Heshan returned to the hands of Dajin people, and now, once again, this song is sung in the voices of everyone again...

"Good man, don't leave your parents, just for the common people and not for the Lord..."

Transition, Yuan Factory Governor set off to return to Beijing
