Of course, Chen Yingliang is not a man who is too crazy. It is no problem to dare to speak wildly about four or five thousand chaotic thieves. He is confident enough to dare to say such things. The two most elite school groups of the National Army will defeat them.

A mob of only four or five thousand people is simply a simpler thing than eating and drinking water. For Chen Yingliang, the only two problems in this war are how to lure the Tian brothers and Zhang Qian.

The main force went to the Yongcheng battlefield to die, the second is to capture the thief first, how to defeat the three bandit leaders, the Tian brothers and Zhang Qian.

Chen Yingliang himself has this confidence, but Xu Minlian and Dong You and other new colleagues do not have this confidence. After struggling to get up from the ground, Xu Minlian said to Chen Yingliang with a wry smile: "Chen Zanzhi is loyal to the country, and he is worried about national affairs. I admire him very much, but

However, I think Chen Zanzhi is probably not very clear about the situation in Qiao County. It is probably impossible to eliminate the two black and white thieves and Zhang Qian’s rioters within three days."

"Yes, Chen Zanzhi, you are too confused about the situation in Qiao County." Xie Weiping, the Yongcheng Palace Supervisor, probably felt that Chen Yingliang was furious and was young and arrogant, so he took the conversation and said, "Qiao County is a second-class county."

There is only one medium-sized eagle in the territory, and there are only five regiments of troops under his command, and they are not satisfied with the unit. Just guarding the security of six counties and Tongji Canal, the troops are already in short supply. How can it be wiped out within three days?

The three major thieves?”

Chen Yingliang did not answer, but turned to Dong You and asked: "Mr. Dong, how many government soldiers are there in Yongcheng? How many auxiliary soldiers are there? How many servants are there?"

"There are two regiments of the government soldiers in terms of reputation, but in fact there are only three hundred people." Dong You replied truthfully: "There are six hundred auxiliary soldiers and more than one hundred servants, but the equipment of the auxiliary soldiers and servants is very poor.

Basically, there are only one person with a horizontal sword, and there are very few armor and bows and arrows. Also, the military troops are not fully equipped, and less than fifty people have war horses."

Although he was prepared and had long expected that the situation of the army in Qiao County would be not very good. After learning the truth, Chen Yingliang was still stunned and asked in surprise: "What did the two regiments of the government soldiers have

There are about three hundred people? Almost one-quarter of them are short of staff?”

"There are too many deserters." Dong You replied dejectedly: "The floods were severe at the beginning of Daye. Except for Yongcheng County, all the six counties in Qiao County were severely damaged. The equal fields received by the soldiers of the government were almost unrecovered, and they were not starved to death and flooded.

Death means he cannot afford weapons, armor and war horses, and was forced to be a deserter. Later, the emperor conquered Goguryeo for the first time. Almost no one of the soldiers who had been transferred from Qiao County to participate in the war came back, and the number of troops was greatly reduced. This year's second conquest was held on the day of the year.

Goguryeo, the soldiers in the palace were afraid of being sent to Goguryeo to participate in the war, and more soldiers were deserters, and some Yu Qian directly surrendered to the thieves, so no matter how much the local Yingyang general Fang Kuangfang was recruited, they would be no matter what.

I can't get all the soldiers."

Chen Yingliang was silent, and then he believed that the sentence in the Sui book H was a soldier. It was not a bragging thing. If this continues, the woman who swept the floor had to be transferred into the army to serve as the military soldier. Xu Minlian comforted Chen Yingliang and said, "Chen Zanzhi doesn't have to worry about it."

In view of the serious abandonment of Juntian, I have written to the court to request the re-division of Juntian in Qiao County and recruit the troops of the government. The court also agreed. After a while, the troops of Qiao County should be able to make up for the entire army."

Of course, Chen Yingliang would not believe Xu Minlian's promise that was far away. Fortunately, Chen Yingliang never expected local officers and soldiers in Qiao County, so Chen Yingliang was not in a hurry. He just asked Xu Minlian and others to retreat, and then the service army arrived two days later.

The news from Yongcheng was told to Xu Minlian and others in a low voice, and at the same time, he told Xu Minlian and others to keep it confidential and not to leak the news, so as not to scare away the Tian brothers and Zhang Qian.

Originally, Chen Yingliang thought that Xu Minlian, Dong You and others would be ecstatic and confident when they learned that the Servant Army was about to arrive. Unexpectedly, after Xu Minlian learned that the Servant Army had only two regiments of troops, he was shocked instead of being happy.

, and asked tremblingly, "Chen Zanzhi, are you kidding? The two regiments of the National Army, are you thinking of destroying the four or five thousand rioters of Zhang Qian and the Black and White thieves? The National Army can fight again

, not that great, right?"

"I brought four dissatisfied regiments to serve the National Army and beat more than 50,000 rioters head-on. Chen Yingliang became angry and said, "I forgot to tell you that the service army and I are advancing eastward this time

, and also cut off the head of the great gang of Jibei, Lu Mingxing, and defeated the Wagang thief army of Xu Shiyi, the head of the Wagang thief, on the road."

The timid Xu Minlian screamed again. Chen Yingliang then introduced what happened on the road to Qiao County in the east. He shamelessly put the credit for killing Lu Mingxing's head on himself, and explained that

He left the service army and came to Yongcheng first to arrange tactics to deal with the Tian brothers and Zhang Qian. He persuaded him, but he forced Xu Minlian and others to believe that the two regiments of the service army were confident that they would defeat the Tian brothers and Zhang Qian.

Although he reluctantly believed it, Xu Minlian was still very worried and asked again: "Chen Zanzhi, the service army is indeed well-known, but this time they just passed by Qiao County and could not station bandits in Qiao County for a long time, Zhang Qian and the two thieves of Hei and White

I hide in the mountains and forests again, and I like to run away when I see the situation is not good. Is it still difficult to wipe them out?"

"This is also the reason why I came to Yongcheng in advance." Chen Yingliang smiled and asked, "Premier Xu, Magistrate Dong County, Xie Gongjian, you have been in Qiao County for a long time, so I must have some concerns about the situation of the two thieves in Hei and White and Zhang Qian and Zhang Qian.

Understand what are the biggest personality traits of the Black and White Thief and Zhang Qian? Do you know?"

Xu Minlian, Dong You and Xie Weiping looked at each other, and then replied in unison: "There are greedy for money and lust, and the three thieves are all this kind of virtue."

"Especially the two black and white thieves." Dong You added: "The rioter Zhang Qian has finished robbing, and at least he has left a piece of clothes for the robbed merchants. The two black and white thieves have finished robbing, and they don't even let go of the clothes on the dead bodies.

Even women's clothes were not spared. So the servants under the command of the lower officials had experience. When they saw that the corpse had clothes, they knew that it was Zhang Qian's thief. If there were no clothes on the corpse, they must be the two black and white thieves.

"

"I don't even let go of the corpse and clothes. It seems that I'm really greedy." Chen Yingliang smiled and thought for a moment. Chen Yingliang asked again: "Mr. Dong County Magistrate, we just said that Tongjiqu has been very bad recently.

Taiping, the culprits of the non-peace are of course the two thieves, the Black and White thieves and Zhang Qian. So have they attacked Yongcheng Wharf before? Did they directly rob Yongcheng Wharf?"

"No," Dong You replied truthfully: "Whether it is Zhang Qian or the two black and white thieves, they have never dared to attack Yongcheng Wharf before. Tongjiqu Wharf can be said to be the lifeblood of Yongcheng, and the two groups of

The soldiers of the palace were stationed next to the dock, and the auxiliary soldiers were guarding them very closely, so the black and white thieves and Zhang Qian had never dared to attack the dock before. But..."

Speaking of this, Dong You quickly closed his mouth and looked at Xu Minlian next to him timidly. Chen Yingliang observed his words and said hurriedly: "But what? County Magistrate Dong, please speak out without any hesitation. Don't worry, I know Qiao County.

It’s not your fault that the more thieves become bigger and bigger. You won’t care about it, just talk with confidence.”

After saying that, Chen Yingliang turned to Xu Minlian carefully and bowed and said, "Premier Xu, please give up your hand. If County Magistrate Dong said anything wrong, please forgive me."

"Of course." Xu Minlian nodded and said to Dong You: "Tell me, it's okay, you don't know who I am? I impeached Fu Jiande because he missed the problem when drinking flowers and wine. The grain was robbed so much. You are

Yongcheng County Magistrate, am I not implicating you yet?”

"Then the officials said it straight." Dong You had the confidence and gritted his teeth and said, "But now the two thieves in Hei and White and Zhang Qianju may not dare not rob the Yongcheng Wharf. When the officials heard the wind, the two thieves in Hei and White had already released them.

He said that the officers and soldiers of Yongcheng were just like this and were not their opponents at all, so they were going to make another big deal. The officials suspected that the big deal they were talking about might refer to Yongcheng Wharf."

"Where did you hear these rumors?" Chen Yingliang quickly asked, "Also, why did the two thieves in Black and White say that the officers and soldiers of Yongcheng are just like this? They are not their opponents at all?"

After all the rumors heard, Dong You certainly would not have any hidden secrets and said directly: "I'm going to hide the news from the inside line of the Black and White Thief team, and the Black and White Thief team was occupied.

In Mangdang Mountain and Yushan, there were many thieves under their command, who were locals in Yongcheng. After the last time the grain was robbed, the subordinates were afraid that something big would happen again and lost their heads, so they arranged a reliable team of people who had sneaked into the two black and white thieves.

Inquire about their news for me and grasp their movements. These news were what I arranged for the insider to find out."

"As for why the two thieves in black and white said that our Yongcheng official army was nothing great, it was all because of the good things of Fu Jiande, the lustful idiot Yu." Dong You added with a depressed expression: "Last time the two thieves in black and white robbed the canal ship, Fu Jiande went to rescue the canal grain,

I heard that there was hope to repel the thieves, but Fu Jiande was so immersed in Huajiu that he was afraid of death that he suddenly took the lead in running for life. Our team immediately dispersed, and they all followed him and were killed by the thieves.

, lost a lot of weapons and armor, so the two black and white thieves felt that our Yongcheng officers and soldiers were nothing great, and they were no longer so scared and afraid."

Chen Yingliang showed joy because Chen Yingliang understood that his ex Fu Jiande had accidentally left him a good foundation, which was a good foundation for both the inside and the outside. Unexpectedly, Dong You bowed to Xu Minlian again and said: "Xu

Prefect, the matter has come to this point, and the officials dare not hide it from you anymore. Today, outside the city, the officials report to you the murder case of the ship hijacking. It does not fully explain that the murder case actually happened next to the Yongcheng Wharf.

It is less than three miles away from the pier. Xiaguan is very worried now. If this continues, the two black and white thieves will sooner or later attack Yongcheng pier."

"So close?"

Xu Minlian was shocked, and Chen Yingliang was also surprised and hurriedly asked Dong You about the situation. After Dong You replied truthfully, Chen Yingliang not only annoyed the incompetence of his subordinates and the rampant thieves, but also showed an ecstatic expression and said: "

I really didn’t expect that the rioters were so rampant that we would be even more sure this time.”

Xu Minlian, who had a pretty good official voice, rolled his eyes at Chen Yingliang, thinking that the people of Qiao County were so unlucky yesterday, and there were such rampant bandits in the territory, why did he even get such a bad heart and a bad heart and a rioter who was praised by the rioters? Chen Yingliang

Ignoring Xu Minlian's rolling eyes, the triangle eyes were spinning for a while, Chen Yingliang suddenly asked again: "Mr. Dong, you just said that there are two regiments of troops stationed in Yongcheng, so the schools of these two regiments

Is the wei reliable? It’s not about fighting, but about being a human being, and not betrayal the secrets about the major events of the thief suppression.”

"This..." Dong You hesitated for a moment before saying, "I don't know much about Li Cai and Li Captain Li, but Zhang Huaishen should be fine. The subordinates have a lot of contact with him and know that he is a straightforward person.

, there is no genius."

"Captain Li Cai is reliable, too." Xu Minlian also said, "He is a filial son and a local. Last time his mother was seriously ill and found countless medical doctors but could not be cured. I heard that I was proficient in medical skills, so I went to work specifically.

I went to Qiao County to ask me to treat his mother's illness. I was too busy with official business and refused a few words, so he knelt down and begged me. I was moved by his filial piety, so I put down my business and went to his house to cure him.

My mother, he is very grateful to me and always said that as long as I have any orders, he will repay my kindness even if he goes through fire and water. By the way, I remember that he has a younger brother, who is also a soldier in the palace. I also met him at that time, and he is also a very good person.

Nice young man.”

"Okay." Chen Yingliang was even more happy and hurriedly bowed to Xu Minlian and said, "Premier Xu, the magistrate of Dong County, Xie Gongjian, and the lower officials are now preparing to arrange a plan to suppress the thief to lead the snake out of the cave. This plan requires yours

We will cooperate with you with all our strength and please don’t refuse to give up on your family, country and court.”

"It's all for the great affairs of the court. Chen Zanzhi doesn't have to be polite, please just say it's okay."

Xu Minlian nodded first, and Dong You and Xie Weiping nodded without hesitation. Chen Yingliang was overjoyed and hurriedly introduced his plan to these new colleagues in a low voice, and then said confidently: "Three sirs, I

Dare to say that this plan is more than 80% sure of success. As long as the black and white thieves and Zhang Qian can be led to Yongcheng Wharf, I will definitely be able to destroy them, destroy their arrogance, and let Qiao

The Tongji Canal in the county can be safe and sound for a long time. And you can rest assured that even if this plan fails, we can say that it will suffer almost no losses. At most, two messengers and some money and food pensions are sacrificed, which is irrelevant.

.”

As the head of a county holding the money and grain of Qiao County, Xu Minlian had no problem with the little money and grain that Chen Yingliang needed, and did not care much about whether the two messengers were killed. Xu Minlian was worried about another layer and said hesitantly:

Chen Zanzhi, it would be great if your plan succeeds, but if it fails, or is seen through by Zhang Qian and the two thieves of black and white, then we will be in trouble. In their rage, they will definitely plunder the canal more rampantly. Maybe

Will you wait for the service army to leave and really attack Yongcheng Wharf?"

"Premier Xu, if we don't do this, will the thieves like Zhang Qian and Tian brothers let the Tongjiqu Canal be let go?" Chen Yingliang said calmly: "Premier Xu, the court has arranged for me to serve as an assistant for you in order to make me feel good.

Help you quickly suppress the thieves and chaos in the county and ensure the smooth flow of the Tongji Canal. However, it is hard for a good cook to cook without rice. Without an army, I don’t know when the situation of the thieves and chaos in the Tongji Canal is now rampant, and I don’t know when it will be

Suppress the two rioters, the Tian brothers and Zhang Qian. Therefore, if you want to severely damage the rioters in the country as soon as possible, and no longer repeat the mistakes of the last time the grain was robbed, now is the only chance."

Chen Yingliang's words awakened Xu Minlian. Considering that his tolerance strategy during this period had made the Tian brothers and Zhang Qian even more promising, and he also knew that if he did not help Chen Yingliang set up this trap, the rioters in the county would have been.

The Tongji Canal, which is rich, will not let go, Xu Minlian gritted his teeth and nodded and said, "Chen Zan is reasonable, okay, everything is up to your arrangements. County Magistrate Dong, you will send someone to take Li Ziwei and Zhang immediately

The captain invites us and we will act according to our plan.”

After arranging the preliminary work of the plan, he accompanied Xu Minlian, Xie Weiping and others to attend the welcoming dinner prepared by Dong You's county government funds, it was already dark. Chen Yingliang, who was tired from the journey, then followed Xu Minlian to the inn.

—In order to keep it a secret, Chen Yingliang not only used a pseudonym in the inn, but also fabricated the identity of a Taifu who was sent to the Dongdu. Fortunately, Xu Minlian was proof, Chen Yingliang didn't even need to forge official documents, so he directly led Changsun Wuji and Ma Sanbao

Waiting for people to move into the inn.
