Chapter thirteen entrusted with important tasks
Liu Si came out and saw Zhao Ming squinting his eyes at him. He subconsciously wanted to run away, but Zhao Ming grabbed the back of the clothes and dragged them into the alley to bully him.
After coming out of Xingchuntang, Zhao Ming felt something was wrong, and there must be something wrong with that Chen Shoujie.
Jiangyin's situation is very dangerous. If you are not careful, you will never get rid of it. Zhao Ming does not want any problems.
So he left Xingchun Hall, asked Chen Shoujie's house, and came straight over, but unexpectedly he happened to see Liu Si coming out.
"Are you finished reporting?" Zhao Ming pulled Liu Si to the corner of the wall, "What is Chen Ruizhi, what do you say?"
"Hero..." Liu Si was almost collapsed. When he saw Zhao Ming's fist raised, he quickly confessed, "Shouge Chen said that when the Qing soldiers arrived, he would come to deal with the heroes then!"
"The Qing soldiers, Male Gobi!" Zhao Ming punched Liu Si's stomach, causing pain to make his nose and tears come out, and he was filled with his heart.
At this time, Zhao Ming understood that Jiangyin City was not a solid piece. Chen Mingyu wanted to resist the Qing Dynasty, but Chen Ruizhi did not think that as a garrison, he could not suppress the anger of the people in the city, so he pretended to support the anti-Qing Dynasty. In fact, he wanted to cooperate with the Qing army inside and outside to calm the turmoil in Jiangyin and suppress the situation.
Chen Ruizhi heard some news and thought Chen Mingyu had more help, so he wanted to take him down so that he could deal with Chen Mingyu.
If this is the case, then this Chen Shoujie is an unstable factor and must be eliminated.
Zhao Ming mentioned Liu Si, stared at him and asked, "How many soldiers do you Guan Gang Chen have?"
"Five hundred people." Liu Si answered questions and answers.
Chen Shoujiede was not worthy of his position and actually colluded with the Qing soldiers. I should have done the position of the garrison.
Zhao Ming was thinking, outside the alley, Xu Yong chased after him, "Brother Zhao, Mr. Chen is looking for you."
Zhao Ming originally wanted to go in directly and arrest Chen Ruizhi before talking about it. However, he was an outsider after all, and there was no evidence, so it was not appropriate to take action rashly. It would be best to get Chen Mingyu's support.
In addition, Chen Ruizhi had five hundred subordinates, and he took action rashly, which might cause turmoil. Instead, he gave the Qing army an opportunity to find a prestigious person to act together.
At that time, I will hold Chen Ruizhi and he will stabilize the hearts of the people so that he can avoid turmoil in the city and take over the troops smoothly.
Thinking of this, Zhao Ming suddenly gently tidied up Liu Si's clothes, and then gently patted his cheek, "Don't be nervous, what are the actions of someone surnamed Chen? Let me tell me immediately, I won't treat you badly, do you understand?"
After saying that, Zhao Ming punched Liu Si's head with another punch, which made the wall fall out, making Liu Si nodded like pounding garlic.
Zhao Ming then turned around and said to Xu Yong at the entrance of the alley: "I'm here!"
Several people continued to discuss in Chen Ruizhi's house. The scholar said, "Shouge Chen, the Qing army has arrived outside the city now. I thought we could not wait any longer. We must control the situation as soon as possible, release the county magistrate Fang, let him take charge of the overall situation, and write to the Qing army, saying that we are willing to shave our hair and surrender, otherwise we will be in danger of our lives once the war begins."
"Yes! Guard! King Yu has already made clear orders to fight against the Qing army, and the city will not be kept. Think about Yangzhou, and it is better to surrender quickly. Chen Mingyu and the rioters will not implicate us!" Another person spoke.
Chen Ruizhi had a dark face, "You are right, you really can't wait any longer. If you wait any longer, there will only be more and more rioters gathering. I will take action now!"
Soon, Zhao Ming and Xu used the city head. He found that the defense on the city was much better than when he entered the city, and it was not as chaotic as when he entered the city.
At this time, Chen Mingyu and Zheng Sen came over. When they saw that Zhao Ming was like nothing, Chen Mingyu looked surprised: "What Damu said is true. Bo'an is a powerful soldier. I feel relieved if there are two people in Jiangyin City."
Zhao Ming clasped his fists and said, "Sir, I'm sorry. If you have anything, just give me instructions. Zhao is willing to do whatever he wants."
Chen Mingyu smiled and said, "Now the enemy soldiers are coming to the city, I was elected by the soldiers in the city to lead everyone to fight against the Qing Dynasty. However, I was just a minor official in charge of prisons and was not proficient in defending the city, so I wanted to hand over this important task to Bo'an and Damu."
Chen Mingyu was the leader of the anti-Qing Dynasty in the city, but he didn't know much about military affairs. He had no idea how to defend and what to do next. He just didn't want to shave his head and was elected by the gentry and civilians in the city as the leader.
Zhao Ming was happy, but calmed down and found that he could not fight. He just rushed around with his strength and had no experience in defending the city. Zheng Sen was just starting out and his level was probably limited. It would be better to let people in history command the defense, and he could defend at least 81 days.
This made Zhao Ming a little disappointed. It turned out that I was just a reckless man!
Thinking of this, Zhao Ming clasped his fists and said, "Zhao is willing to take on this important task, but the city has four sides, so I and Damu are not enough. Do you have any other talents in Jiangyin? I need help."
Chen Mingyu thought for a while, "Yan Yingyuan and Feng Houdun are my colleagues. Their abilities are far better than me and can help."
Zhao Ming nodded, and when he heard these two names, he immediately felt relieved.
The three anti-Qing emperors gathered together and held on for 81 days was guaranteed. In addition, Zheng Sen and I were crying.
This time, not only do you have to become famous, but you also have to take the opportunity to learn something secretly to see how Yan Yingyuan defends the city.
"Then I'll invite them to you, Mr. Zhao!" Zhao Ming said with a smile.
Chen Mingyu nodded and said, "Then I'll go and invite you now."
Zhao Ming waved his hand, "Don't rush for a moment, now there is one thing that must be done as soon as possible!"
"I don't know what?" Chen Mingyu said in confusion.
Zhao Ming lowered his voice, "Jiannu's troops are at the city, and the city must be determined to fight the Qing Dynasty. Is there anyone in this city that does not support the fight against the Qing Dynasty? Such people, as well as Jiannu's careful work in the city, must be cleaned up immediately to prevent them from cooperating with the Qing army inside and outside."
Zheng Sen nodded, "Brother Bo'an has thought it through carefully. We have just entered the city and don't know what's going on in the city. Sir, tell us what's going on in the city!"
Chen Mingyu said: "The gentry and people in the city have put the pseudo-magistrate Fang Heng in prison. The gentry and people expressed that they would never shave their hair and fight against the Qing soldiers!"
Zhao Ming sneered, "I don't think there should be people in the city who are obsessed with obedience due to the situation. The guard Chen Ruizhi had a problem, so he sent someone to bring me."
Chen Mingyu's face changed. At this moment, he climbed the city steps and suddenly a noise came. Zheng Sen walked over and saw a group of soldiers separated by a sword with spears and swords. He led a team of soldiers to the top of the city, held the hilt of the knife and said proudly: "Mr. Chen, our guards ask you to come over, and there are important things to discuss."
Zhao Ming raised his eyebrows and said that he was so angry that he actually sent someone to invite him.
