Chapter 4
"What happened?" Seeing that the chief was anxious, Jiang Chi didn't blame him for not being ignorant of the rules, but instead asked, "The sky is falling or the earth is falling?"
Yasi was taken aback for a moment, but then smiled wryly: "My lord, the sky didn't fall and the ground didn't sink, but those bastard golden soldiers are restless."
Da Jin has always wanted to slowly nibble away at the Song Dynasty to support himself, so burning, killing and looting naturally happened from time to time. The Imperial City Secretary not only spied on the details of court officials, but also shouldered foreign spies. Out to loot.
The Jin soldiers didn't dare to be blatant, they just used the name of bandits to plunder small towns, but Jiang Chi was extremely angry, "I've heard that the Jin people are cruel and heartless, if they go out to rob, how can I be as big as you?" How can the people of Song Dynasty live?"
Jiang lacked a look of anger, the people in the world are so innocent, they only want three meals a day, but there are still some people who don't want to let them go, they are bullied by local officials, burned, killed and looted by foreigners and bandits, how tragic is it?
Influenced by the 21st century, and also as the chief executive of the imperial city, he felt that he should do something, and shouted: "Call two teams of guards, and come with me to meet those bastard golden dogs!"
The Kingdom of Jin once suppressed Bianliang in the Northern Song Dynasty. Now that the Southern Song Dynasty is gradually becoming stable, they are restless again. They are afraid that something will happen to the Southern Song Dynasty, and they send and plunder from time to time in order to weaken the Southern Song Dynasty court.
"But my lord, even though the opponent has only a thousand people, their overall combat effectiveness is still stronger than ours." Ya Si reported that although the Kingdom of Jin had begun to decay, the troops dispatched were all elite soldiers.
It's okay for the guards of the Imperial City Department to do a little spying, but it's a lot worse to fight and kill people, I'm afraid it's not someone's opponent.
"If you can't fight, you have to fight. Now that I have a little success in Taoism, I just practice my skills." With a wave of his hand, Jiang Que's attitude was firm.
As long as someone like the prince is not leading the army, there are not many masters. He just needs to take the guards to fight to vent his hatred.
"Yes!" Yasi nodded and went down to prepare, and he didn't dare to disobey in the slightest. Not only were the rules of Huangcheng Secretary strict, but Jiang Que was also notorious.
After the escort left, Jiang Chi knocked on the case table, "Now that the centipedes of the Kingdom of Jin are dead but not stiff, it is still a confidant of my Song Dynasty. No wonder the emperors of the Southern Song Dynasty in history wanted to unite with Mongolia, or secretly push hands to let Mongolia If the Kingdom of Jin is destroyed, the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun were all in the hands of the Kingdom of Jin, so how could others sleep soundly in the couch, not to mention the innocent people of Song Dynasty who suffered, of course Mongolia is not a good thing."
Now that he is the commissioner of the imperial city, he has to do some things.
"Hey, Brother Jiang, have you left the customs?" Jiang Xiao was thinking, when a clear and clear voice like the chirping of an oriole rang in his ears, and Huang Rong's pretty figure appeared in his eyes.
Now she eats well and dresses warmly. She no longer has the miserable days of wandering outside alone. She is naturally very happy. Seeing that Jiang Xiao is still frowning, she can't help but say: "You seem unhappy? Could it be that I am here today?" Isn't it pretty? Or do you not like me anymore?"
Forehead!
Jiang Que's face was full of black lines, why does this girl like to think too much.
Quickly explained: "You are very beautiful, and I like it very much, but I have to go out today. Jin Guozhong has sent a small team of soldiers to the south to pretend to be bandits and rob. As the imperial city secretary, I must take care of it."
As soon as she heard that Jiang Xiao was going out, Huang Rong immediately became interested, "Then I'll go too."
"No, it's too dangerous." Jiang Xiao shook his head, people die in war, not to go sightseeing.
"Oh, Brother Jiang, why don't you take me with you, anyway, I'm not afraid if you're here." Huang Rong looked convinced of Jiang's lack, and he widened his eyes and wanted to refute, but he couldn't find any reason. He was not Huang Rong. Who can control others.
He simply stopped talking, and when the personnel from the Imperial City Department arrived, they would set off immediately, and naturally they would not care about Huang Rong.
But after people came, Huang Rong took the lead to win a horse, and followed Jiang Chiu all the way, making him dumbfounded, so he had to take it along with him on the road.
The Jin soldiers went south to plunder Changzhou, that is, the Jiangsu area in later generations. Jiang Xiao decided to teach these bastards an unforgettable lesson, or deterrence - since they pretended to be bandits, they should be killed as bandits.
Two thousand troops roared northward, but they were mighty and mighty.
Many real horse thieves and bandits trembled when they heard the sound. For a while, the whole area around the official road was extremely calm, and they were afraid that they would offend the people of the Imperial City Secretary, and they would be upset if they made a fuss.
Even the government in this area has stopped doing anything, bullies no longer bully men and women, and the reputation has improved for a while, and there is a scene of prosperity and rule.
Along the way, Huang Rong was stunned, "You, you have such a great reputation? You are even scarier than my father."
"It's not that I have the prestige, it's that the Imperial City Secretary has the prestige. No matter the white way or the underworld, or the grass and lakes, anyone who has concerns dare not easily provoke my Imperial City Secretary." Jiang Xiao explained that once provoked, he would not die It goes on and on, and the Imperial City Secretary is backed by the officials, so it is clear at a glance who lives and who dies.
"Then you are really notorious enough." Huang Rong covered her mouth and smiled coquettishly, the reputation of the Imperial City Secretary was probably more intimidating than the big villains in the rivers and lakes.
Jiang Xiao shook his head, but explained: "Huangcheng Secretary is a vicious dog raised by the government, and he is not afraid of being protected by the government."
No matter which generation of officials, no matter whether they are insane or not, they all treat the Imperial City Secretary equally, and they all like to control such a vicious dog to balance the court.
"My lord, I have a report from Chazi. A thousand gold soldiers are on a Niutou mountain near Changzhou. They colluded with local bandits and put all the looted property in the mountain. They are planning to look for another opportunity to strike." Come to report that the details of the rebellious Jin soldiers have been found out, and one general will lead the army.
"God helps me so much, but I can take down the big group of golden soldiers and bandits together, and take the money and put it into my imperial city department." Those who died fled, and their money was naturally plundered by those golden soldiers.
Jiang Xiao intends to come and eat black, kill the gold soldiers and bandits, loot the money back to the Imperial City Division, part of it will be handed over, and part of it can be used as the internal funds of the Imperial City Division, and can also buy some expensive elixir to aid in cultivation .
No one has too much money, so Jiang Chi can't let go of such a black opportunity. The property in Jin Bing's hands is all taken from the hands of the people of the Han family. Even if he wants to return it, there is no way to return it. Spending it out can also bring some circulation to the market.
"Soldiers sent to Changzhou Niutoushan, cover up the traces along the way, don't be discovered by others, I will catch them by surprise." Jiang Que ordered to get up, and took two thousand Imperial City Siweiyi to go north.
Along the way, Huang Rong not only didn't complain about suffering or tiredness, on the contrary, she enjoyed the free air outside, Jiang Chi sighed secretly, this girl was born restless and didn't like quietness.
Changzhou, Niutoushan.
Heigou Village was originally a well-known bandit on Niutou Mountain, who committed all kinds of crimes, including burning, killing and looting. Yes, it depends on the meaning of not leaving.
"Village Master, Jin Bing settled in our village. I will wait for food and shelter, and we need to provide women for them to enjoy. If they are a little careless, they will be beaten and scolded. If things go on like this, I don't want to say how much money will be lost. I'm afraid brothers We have long been divorced, and our Heigou village may not get any benefits."
The military adviser in the cottage frowned, and warned the muscular bearded man, and the bearded man was naturally Cao Heigou, the leader of the Heigou village. The younger brother became a bandit and a bandit.
I was originally a person with no ambitions, and when the military master said that Jin Bing was not, he quickly stopped him and said: "The military master said carefully, it is a common practice for Jin soldiers to go south, but I have bad luck in Heigou Village, and I am happy to serve these masters. Let them leave early."
Other than that, he couldn't think of any way to counter it. Although there are only a thousand Jin soldiers, they are the regular army of the Jin Kingdom, and they are still elites. There are only a few people in Heigou Village, and there are only one or two hundred people playing with knives and sticks. How to fight against it? ?
Even if he wanted to, he was powerless. Shaking his head, he had no choice but to say frankly: "The military commander should stop persuading the village master. We are fish and meat, and the gold soldiers are knives."
He was also very helpless, and he knew that Jin Bing was a villain, but there was nothing he could do.
After Cao Heigou left, the military adviser was left alone for a long time, and he sighed: "Maybe this is the cause and effect that the Buddhists said. In Heigou Village, it is never unreasonable to bully the people on weekdays, and it is never lenient to rob money and women." , but now it is because of the number of days that it is robbed by others.
No, he, Cao Heigou, wants to serve the Jin people, but I, Wang Qi, don't want to. "His fate in this life is very unfavorable, and he has been displaced so far that he has acquired the initial stage of cultivation. He originally wanted to use the resources of Heigou Village to continue his cultivation, but now it seems that it is inappropriate.
Five days later, Jiang Chi and his group came to the foot of Niutou Mountain in Changzhou. Looking at the winding mountain, the lush trees stood tall, and the smoke from cooking here was lingering. One could tell that there were thieves in the mountain at a glance.
"Are those golden dogs still in the cottage?" Jiang Que asked one of the guards next to him, if those golden soldiers ran away, why not go for nothing.
Hearing this, the abbot hurriedly replied: "My lord, according to Chazi's report, the thousand gold soldiers are enjoying themselves in the Black Dog Village on Niutou Mountain. They are drunk and dreamy all day long. If we sneak attack, we will have a lot to do. Well, get in touch with the military division in Heigou Village, if we cooperate inside and outside, we will be able to take it."
However, Jiang Xiao frowned, and said in confusion: "Counterfeit military division? Is it reliable? Don't trap us in."
"Don't worry, my lord. The investigation is clear. The military advisor is Wang Qi. He was a down-and-out scholar in his early years. He has never been successful, so he abandoned his studies and turned to martial arts to live in seclusion in this black dog village. He was raised with the resources of the cottage, but since After Jin Bing came, their life was difficult, and they ate all leftovers from Jin Bing, and it was normal to have complaints." Ya Si explained.
Jiang Kuang nodded, but scolded: "That's what they deserve, but what should be used has to be used. Let's make a lot of preparations. We will sneak attack on the cottage tomorrow night, so that Wang Qi will be ready."
No matter what Wang Qi's plan is, as the Imperial City Secretary of the imperial court, forgive him for not daring to play tricks, even if he really dared, he still has a way to resolve it.
the next night.
The night was dark and windy without a trace of moonlight, it was really a good night to kill, Jiang Chi personally led the team, and two thousand imperial city guards followed him, preparing to attack and kill the golden soldiers in Heigou Village.
With Wang Qi opening the secret whistle and the gate, it would be much easier to sneak attack on those drunk and dreaming guys. The only thing that worried Jiang Chi was that the girl Huang Rong also went with her. She insisted on protecting him, which made his early days of the day after tomorrow. It seemed fake, but because of Huang Rong's good intentions and her mid-acquired cultivation, she agreed.
And this night is destined to be a sleepless night!
