Chapter 122 Follow-up

Wei Zhongxian was unwilling to be a target, so it would be great if he didn't add fuel to the fire. The other civil servants in the court were now in a rebellion, and the nobles... were forced to helpless when he was involved in the Beijing camp. At this time, he might be singing and dancing to the fullest and peaceful way to see the jokes of the emperor!
And the faint foundation he cultivated is not worth mentioning under the boiling and booming sky!
even……
Suddenly, Zhu Youjian couldn't help but feel a sense of horror in his heart.
Is this sudden attack a temporary plan or a long time planning?
And it happened to be during this special period when Yongweiying left Beijing!
"Let Cao Huachun come here!"
"Cheng'en, please send someone to send a message to Li Xiu immediately..."
"Also, Cheng'en, please go and inspect the Nei Cao Army quickly!"
A series of decrees were issued. Zhu Youjian looked around at the eunuchs and palace maids kneeling in the hall, as if they had thought of something, snorted coldly, suddenly turned around, returned to the table, picked up the pen and grinded the ink, and started writing something on the paper...
Li Xiu naturally didn't know about the sudden turmoil in the capital court. When he first submitted a memorial, his thoughts were completely pulled by the Later Jin Dynasty, but he just wanted to avoid the tragic scene in history as much as possible.
Naturally, he didn't expect that his memorial not only did not play the expected role, but instead became the fuse of the storm in the capital!
At this moment, the camp outside Zhending City, although the night was dark, had no sign of quietness at all.
The bonfires were burning, completely illuminating every corner of the camp. The soldiers patrol and the horses were exploring and the roars were running around, which was very lively.
Especially the temporary prison where prisoners were imprisoned was even more noisy at this moment. Although the battle in Zhending Mansion was huge, there were only a few thousand people who were killed or injured. Compared with the huge scale of Li Erdong's unit, this number of casualties is really not worth mentioning.
And these tens of thousands of prisoners naturally became the current focus.
Teams of soldiers wearing armor and holding sharp soldiers shuttled through various cages. Under the recognition of many victims, they lifted the rebels hidden among the victims out, and fell directly in front of many victims, and were stained with blood on the spot.
As for whether it will be injured by mistake or killed by mistake, this question will obviously not be cared about by any soldier.
After all, although Li Xiu had issued a military order that he could not harm the people for no reason, the victims in front of him could not be regarded as civilians, but rebel bandits!
The killing lasted all night, and the corpses who transported the bodies did not stop overnight.
But for Li Xiu, all this is far from over.
Whether it is the clearance of the remaining bandits in various counties in Zhending Prefecture, the recruitment and selection of auxiliary soldiers, or even the most important resettlement of disaster victims, he needs to take charge of it.
At dawn, the army divided its troops again and headed towards the counties occupied by the bandits in Zhending Prefecture.
Li Xiu was still in charge of the central army, and at this moment, the central army commander's tent also welcomed a visitor that Li Xiu had never expected!
Lu Xiangsheng!
One of the few remarkable generals in the late Ming Dynasty history, and they were also literati generals!
What surprised Li Xiu the most was that Lu Xiangsheng came to pay homage as the prefect of Zhending Prefecture.
This made Li Xiu a little confused. In his opinion, the prefect of Zhending was just a completely useless thing. With one blind operation, it directly caused the thief to rise!
He had already found out the details of the Zhending Prefect, but no matter how he looked at it, it should have nothing to do with Lu Xiangsheng...
After talking for a few sentences, Lu Xiangsheng obviously saw Li Xiu's doubts and explained with a wry smile. Only then did Li Xiu realize it suddenly.
"In the battle yesterday, the brave guards were so fierce that they really shocked me. The general was the best in the world to command troops and govern the army!"
"Haha, wherever you are, it depends on your Majesty's trust and support. You are only two thousand remaining soldiers, but you can resist the siege of tens of thousands of thieves for several days. This is the real use of troops like a god!"
"Shame! It's up to the soldiers who dare to fight!"
That being said, the complacent between Lu Xiangsheng's eyebrows was uncontrollable. The fact was true. If he hadn't arrived, with Xu Ningyuan's idiotic virtue, this true Dingfu City would have been fallen long ago!
After some polite praise, the two got back to the point.
"I wonder what the general is going to deal with the prisoners of Li thieves?"
Li Xiu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, his eyes fixed on Lu Xiangsheng, who could not see the change in his expression. After pondering for a while, he said: "Li thieves are rampant, but the vast majority of the victims are innocent people wrapped in them. After I chose some young and strong people to make up for the losses of our headquarters, the rest will be settled by you!"
After saying that, Li Xiu paused for a while and added:
"Of course, if Zhending Mansion has no power to resettle, then the book will send people to the imperial village to resettle the victims..."
"If the general believes that, these victims will stay in Zhending Mansion!"
Lu Xiangsheng immediately said: "In this trouble with Li Zhe, Zhending Mansion is in chaos and the people are in serious loss. These victims will definitely place them properly!"
“So great!”
Li Xiu also nodded. It would be a great thing for Zhending Mansion to take over. Otherwise, if tens of thousands of victims were required to take over, it would be a huge burden!
After receiving Li Xiu's exact answer, Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The Zhending Mansion had become a mess by the guy who was operating it all over the place.
The guy patted his butt and left. This mess must be ended up with him. Otherwise, the position of prefect would have to be dead!
"But the remaining bandits in Zhending have to ask the general to send troops to clear one or two out of the way. The general is relieved. I will try my best to raise food, grass and weapons for the general to ensure that the general's army needs!"
Hearing this, Li Xiu rarely showed joy. He naturally has no shortage of food and grass at present, but it does not mean that there is no shortage in the future.
The food and grass allocated by the court were allocated according to the organization of the Yongwei Camp. Although there would be some surplus at the request of Zhu Youjian, it was not much.
Nowadays, he has selected young and strong men to train auxiliary soldiers. This additional force needs to raise food and grass by himself.
Although Zhu Youjian specially allocated an additional batch of food, grass, weapons, weapons, and a large amount of silver from the inner court before leaving, and ordered all prefectures and counties along the way to cooperate, many things were not as easy as imagined. The style of lip service was not uncommon in the Ming Dynasty officialdom.
What's more, in this famineous place, it is not easy to buy and raise food and grass. It is also an unexpected surprise that Lu Xiangsheng can cooperate like this.
With the cooperation of Lu Xiangsheng and the many food and supplies saved before, as long as you keep this period of time and return to the capital, everything will be fine.
Chapter completed!
