Kowloon wins

Chapter 284 Collecting the Net (Part [-])

"My lord, Huai'an is a great victory!"

It was just dawn, and Hong Qing, who hadn't slept soundly all night, woke up, walked out of the bedroom with hazy eyes, and before she finished yawning, she saw the guard Wang Kai rushing in from the courtyard door with sweat profusely, and rushed to grab it. In front of Hong Qing, a Daqian rushed to report.

"Oh? Tell me, what's the situation now?"

Seeing that Wang Kai, who followed Li Minxing to Huai'an, had arrived, Hong Qing's remaining drowsiness was gone, she raised her brows, and hurriedly asked questions.

"Returning to my little prince, General Geng made a surprise attack on the salt patrol camp last night. He took down all the suspects in one fell swoop. In addition, the Admiral Yao Cheng and General Yao of the Jinling Navy have led their troops to intercept all the salt boats. Chen Biao and others All the thieves were captured. Under General Li's sudden interrogation, all the thieves confessed that Liu Ba-nu was the mastermind behind this smuggling of salt. Come!"

Although Wang Kai didn't participate in the battle last night, he participated in the whole process of the sudden trial, and galloped his horse for more than two hundred miles. What happened last night was concisely reported.

"Okay! Let's go down and rest, come here!"

Hearing that the result of the battle was so brilliant, the big stone hanging in Hong Qing's heart finally fell to the ground, and she clapped her hands with great joy, and let out a loud shout.

"Subordinates are here!"

As soon as Hong Qing finished speaking, Li Shun, the vice-commander of the guards who was waiting outside the courtyard, snatched in from outside and promised loudly.

"Decree: The garrison battalion in the city must be assembled immediately, and Benbele will have a military exercise!"

Hong Qing looked at Li Shun solemnly, and squeezed out a very sinister sentence from between her teeth.

"twitter!"

Upon hearing this order, Li Shun didn't dare to be negligent, and hastily complied, leading a few palace guards and rushing out of the mansion, riding his horse towards the military camp in the north of the city...

"The last Yangzhou garrison, Sun Sange, sees the imperial envoy!"

On the small high platform of the Martial Arts Field in the north of the city, Sun Sange, the guerrilla general of Yangzhou Garrison Battalion, quickly walked up to Hong Qing who was sitting in the middle of the high platform. , not for anything else, just because Hong Qing has been serving as magistrate temporarily for nearly half a year, but she has never been to the barracks.

"Sun Sange, can you be convicted?"

After Hong Qing looked at Sun Sange with great interest for a long time, then her face became serious, and she yelled at him with a slap in the face.

"Ah, the final general doesn't know what the imperial envoy means? The final general is innocent!"

Hearing Hong Qing's words were very cold, Sun Sange couldn't help being taken aback, raised his head suddenly, and protested in surprise.

"Well, you are not guilty. As an official of the imperial court, you hold military power, but you don't want to serve the imperial court. You are in cahoots with Liu Baerv, bullying men and women, how is it different from bandits? Come, take off this guy and put him in prison !"

Sun Sange and Liu Ba Nv have a very close personal relationship, they have always been called brothers and sisters, and they have often done things like buying people's land by force. The people's grievances have long been aroused, and Hong Qing has more than a dozen pieces of pleading papers secretly drawn by Wang Panshou, so he is not in a hurry It was just because she was afraid of bewildering others, but now, since it was time to meet Tu Qiong, how could Hong Qing speak politely, and with a wave of her hand, she already ruthlessly ordered.

"twitter!"

As soon as Hong Qing finished speaking, several guards of the palace immediately agreed, and all rushed forward to capture Sun Sange on the spot.

"Wait a minute, you are reckless, and you will not accept it!"

Seeing that the situation was not right, Sun Sange's eyes turned red, he jumped up, and roared wildly.

"Not convinced? Hey, okay, Ben Baylor will convince you, come here, Xuan!"

It is true that Hong Qing wants to take down Sun Sange, but the main purpose is to subdue the morale of the garrison battalion, so she doesn't mind spending more effort, seeing Sun Sange shouting dissatisfaction, she is not in a hurry to take him down , waved his hand, motioning the guards to step back, then smiled disdainfully, and waved his hand to Guan Yu standing beside him to read out the pleadings.

"My lord imperial envoy, the grasslanders bowed and kowtowed at Wangjiaba for hundreds of years. The grasslanders have grievances and want to appeal. I ask the imperial envoy to be the master of the villain. The grasslanders originally had a hundred acres of fertile land, which has been passed down for three generations. In the 38th year of Kangxi, the land boundary was lost due to floods. That Liu Ba'v used this to covet the grassland's farmland, and even colluded with Sun Sange, the then commander-in-chief of the garrison battalion, to kill the grasslander's second son, frame the grasslander's involvement with the bandits, and rob the grasslander's land...

"My lord, the imperial envoy, Chen Chunshu, a grassroots man, bows and kowtows..."

……

Although the rain watcher was young, he was courageous and never stage-frightened. He made his promise, and loudly announced the papers in his hand one by one, until Sun Sange's complexion was as pale as paper. Under the gushing cold sweat, the sweat drenched his heavy clothes, and his whole body was as wet as if he had been fished out of the water.

"Enough! Sun Sange, do you have anything else to say, huh?"

This meeting was nothing more than the declaration of four pleading papers, Sun Sange was already on the verge of collapse, so Hong Qing didn't let Guan Yu continue reading, and glanced coldly at the embarrassed Sun Sange , asked in a calm tone.

"The last general, the last general, ah, this is all a false accusation, the last general refuses to accept, the last general refuses to accept!"

Facing the fate of certain death, Sun Sange obviously panicked, but he still refused to give in, roaring arrogantly.

"Take it!"

The evidence of the crime is clear, so Hong Qing stopped talking nonsense with him, and sternly shouted, several palace guards rushed over, took off Sun Sange's hat without any explanation, and cut his hands behind his back tied them up, and dragged them out regardless.

"There are still many people among you who collude with Sun Sange. According to the law, you should be punished. However, the so-called heaven has the virtue of good life, and Ben Baylor is not willing to be too harsh. Today, if you can obey orders, Ben Baylor will be here. This is a guarantee, and all your mistakes before today will be forgiven, if not, you will be punished for several crimes, don’t blame Ben Baylor for being unpredictable, and those who are willing to obey orders, raise your right hand!"

Taking down Sun Sange is not the goal, but just a means. What Hong Qing wants is to control the military power, and she will not do anything to kill them all, so she suddenly got up, looked around at the officers and soldiers lined up under the high platform, and was very impressed. Generously announced the decree of forgetting the past.

"Shh!"

The commander of the garrison battalion stationed in Yangzhou, all the officers can't clean their buttocks, it's just a question of whether there is more or less shit. Seeing that Sun Sange was taken down earlier, I couldn't help feeling a little nervous, lest Hongqing would not follow through. I want to get to the bottom of the big guy's culpability. At this moment, when I heard that Hong Qing actually planned to enlarge the guy, no one dared to hesitate. No, Hong Qing's voice had just fallen, and more than a thousand officers and soldiers were already in unison. He raised his right hand brushily.

"It's so good, come with Ben Baylor, send troops to Liu's town, capture Liu Banu alive, and set off!"

Now that the general's heart had been subdued, Hong Qing didn't want to procrastinate any longer, and she didn't say any more rhetorical words of encouragement. She just waved her hand and gave a loud order, then walked down the high platform quickly, and led the army straight to Go to Liujia Town, three miles outside the city...

"Um……"

In the study of the Yanyun Envoy Yamen, He Mingfu was sitting in front of the copywriting in a state of distraught, tapping his fingers on the table unconsciously, uttering a long muffled groan, frowning tightly, and looking worried, but if you really want to tell the truth He was really troubled, but he couldn't really say it out, he just had a vague feeling that something serious was about to happen.

"Report, my lord, the imperial envoy suddenly led the garrison out of Beicheng, and went straight to Liujia Town."

He Mingfu's premonition was really accurate, and just as he was about to get up and go around the front yard, he saw a Geshiha rushing in from the outside, and reported anxiously.

"What? What does Sun Sange do for food? How can he be allowed to mess around like this!"

Hearing that Hongqing led the army to Liujia Town, He Mingfu jumped up in shock, and asked with eyes wide open.

"My lord, I have never seen General Sun in the army. I asked an acquaintance privately, and I just learned that General Sun has been captured by the imperial envoy. It is rumored that the dispatch of troops this time is to capture Liu Ba Nv."

Seeing that He Mingfu lost his composure like this, the Ghoshha who came to report the news did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly reported the news he knew one by one.

"Damn! Nonsense, nonsense!"

Hearing what Nagoshha said, He Mingfu's eyes turned red immediately, and he cursed angrily, not because of anything else, but because He Mingfu had received many benefits from Liu Banu in the past, and the accumulated amount was already It was enough to make He Mingfu's head move. If Liu Banu was captured by Hong Qing just like that, then He Mingfu's days before he would die would be numbered.

"My lord, do you think you want to send a letter to shopkeeper Liu right now?"

Ghoshha, who came to report the letter, was He Mingfu's confidant. Seeing his master's fury, he panicked, hurriedly took a step closer, and self-righteously came up with an idea.

"It's too late, hurry up, prepare the sedan chair, no, prepare the horse, I will go to Liujia Town immediately!"

Knowing that it is difficult to stop Hong Qing who holds the imperial decree in Liujia Town at this time, but if he can't stop Hong Qing's actions, He Mingfu really can't imagine what his end will be like. Planning to go all out, he waved his hand impatiently and yelled anxiously.

"Ah, chirp, I'll do it now, little one!"

Hearing that He Mingfu was planning to fight Hongqing head-on in person, that Geshha was taken aback immediately, and was about to speak, but saw He Mingfu's eyes were already staring fiercely at him, and he dared not say any more. , hastily responded, and rushed out of the study room. After a while, as He Mingfu rushed out of the lobby in a hurry, the entire salt transportation made the yamen completely confused, and he didn't know the so-called officials. While asking each other, they all hurried to the place where the sedan chairs were parked, hurriedly followed behind He Mingfu and his group who had left in the dust, and rushed towards Liujia Town in a noisy manner.
