Han’s Son is Not a Slave

Chapter 51: Ming Army

In Deqing City, the news that Luo Ding was occupied by bandits had already spread, and it was Jiang Er, a friend of Lu Chang’s family.

Jiang Er got the master’s order, sneaked out from the gap in Luoding’s city wall while the night was dark, and then went straight to Deqing. .

After entering the city, Jiang Er did not report to the green camp first, but went straight to the Deqing county government office, because Lu Gongming, the magistrate of Deqing county, was the uncle of his own boss, and it was easy to say if he had this kind of kinship.

Hearing that Luo Ding called the bandits to take over, Kong Guoliang, the head of the garrison green camp, died, and the bandits blackmailed and extorted all over the city. Not a single big gentry was spared. Lu Gongming was so angry that his beard was curled up. He took the county chief Wu Changshou straight to the green camp station, and asked the guard Zhang Dade to send troops to suppress the bandits quickly.

I don’t want to, Zhang Dade has no interest in sending troops to suppress the bandits, because most bandits will run away after robbing them, and will not wait for officers and soldiers to come and suppress them. Could it be that he was supposed to lead his troops all over the mountain to find the bandits’ old nest? Besides, he was Deqing’s garrison, not Luo Ding’s garrison. Luo Ding told the bandits to occupy him.

If it was not the bandits but the Ming army who captured Luo Ding, Zhang Dade would immediately send troops to fight, of course, provided that the opponent was not Li Dingguo’s troops. It’s really Li Tiger’s soldier. He Zhang Mazi would not dare to touch the tiger’s **** even if he had the guts of a bear’s heart and a leopard, but if those Nanming’s miscellaneous cards were to touch Zhang Dade’s tiger’s butt, he wouldn’t be beaten for nothing.

Why are the bandits not interested in fighting, but are interested in fighting the Ming army?

The reason is that fighting bandits is to protect the country and the people; fighting the Ming army is to open up territory for the court. There is a big difference between the two. The former cannot slaughter the city, but the latter can slaughter the city in the city afterwards. Not only can it grab a lot of money, but it can also be awarded by the court. Such a good thing, who would not be willing to do it?

Zhang Dade deliberately asked Jiang Er again, and after confirming that the group of people were bandits under the flag of Li Ding, all his heart was lightened, and he wanted to see off the guests lazily.

The garrison set the tone, and the thousand commanders and the generals under the commander naturally realized what they were interested in, and they all shouted that the soldiers could not be sent, but they could send troops. Otherwise, the Green Camp brothers wouldn’t have the time to make a trip to Luoding.

These ignorant Qiu Ba!

Lu Gongming, who was born in the 14th year of Chongzhen, was really angry at this group of warriors. He insisted on his temper and talked for a long time.

In desperation, Lu Gongming had no choice but to go back and write an official document to Zhaoqing Mansion overnight. In the official document, Zhang Dade really scolded him, and asked the Zhaoqing prefect to inform the general soldier to send a document to suppress the bandits, so that the people in Luoding would not suffer from bandits.

Jiang Er was anxious when he could not wait for the Green Camp to set off, but no matter how anxious he was, there was nothing he could do. What could he do if the Green Camp did not send troops, he could only stay at the county office and wait for news.

On this day, just after lunch, Lu Gongming was holding a tea bowl to digest food, and Song Tong, the security guard of Xihe Town, broke in shouting: “Xianzun, something is bad, the Ming army is calling!”

“What? Ming Jun is calling?!”

“Bang bang”, the tea bowl fell to the ground, and Lu Gongming jumped up, full of panic. He had been an official for several years, and what he was most afraid of was hearing the call of the Ming army, which meant that he was the county magistrate. Life is not guaranteed. The court’s laws were very strict, and people who lost land and abandoned soil would have their heads beheaded, so the Ming army was not good at it, and it was hard to take their innocent officials and sacrifice flags between them.

“I saw it with my own eyes, the Ming army crossed the West River and came to the county town under the banner!” Song Tong was out of breath, but he was running hard all the way, but he finally saw him. The situation is said.

Haven’t hit the county yet?

Lu Gongming felt somewhat relieved, and asked Song Tong: “How many soldiers and horses does the Ming army have, and whose flag is it fighting?”

Song Tong said with a bitter face: “Xianzun, the little one is in a hurry to come back to report the letter. How dare you look close? I really don’t know how many people there are, but the small one can see clearly what it is called Taipingying!”

“Taiping Camp?”

Lu Gongming made a quick turn in his mind and confirmed that he had never heard of the camp head of the Ming army, nor was it the head of Li Dingguo’s troops, so he stopped panicking, and after a moment of indulgence, he led people to the green camp.

…………

Before entering the house, I heard the sound of a horse slinging from the house.

“bump!”

“Thirty thousand!”

“Bullshit!”

“Your lord is really lucky!”

“Haha… don’t flatter, hurry up and get the money, get the money…”

“…”

These Qiu Ba are so excited!

Hearing the sound of horses hanging in the house, Lu Gongming was full of slander. The two personal soldiers who pushed open the gate rushed in and said eagerly, “Master Zhang, the Ming army is coming, you should take someone to defend the city!”

The game was in good spirits, and Lu Gongming suddenly rushed in, looking like a dead father and mother, and saying that the Ming army had come over, which made Zhang Dade, who had just slapped the table, angrily, and said: “Nonsense, my soldiers on the top of the city are watching, there are really Ming troops coming, can they not come to report?”

Seeing Zhang Dade’s disbelief, Lu Gongming stomped his feet anxiously: “The Ming army has just crossed the Xihedu and hasn’t reached the city yet!”

“Really?” Zhang Dade was stunned, and UU reading www.uukanshu.com wondered: “Where did the Ming army come from?”

“He’s coming from Luo Ding’s direction!” Lu Gongming pointed to the west.

“Luo Ding?” Zhang Dade was stunned again, and became more confused, “Isn’t that place occupied by bandits, where did the Ming army come from?”

How could Lu Gongming know what was going on, “Sir, let’s hurry up and take a look at the city, don’t let the Ming army break the city!”

“Damn it!”

Zhang Dade pushed away the card in front of him, scolded angrily, and shouted to the men who were still looking at him stupidly: “What are you still doing sitting there, you haven’t even looked at me!”

“Hey! 喳!”

Only then did the subordinates react, and they rushed out in a panic. After a while, they rushed out of the camp with their respective Green Battalion soldiers.

Lu Gongming followed Zhang Dade to the city wall. Before reaching the city wall, he heard the bell on the city gate.

There is a big bell hanging on the city gate, which usually does not ring. It will only ring when the enemy is found outside the city. Hearing the sound of the bell, Zhang Dade and the others were all startled. They were sure that there was a Ming army coming over. They dared to delay and rushed to the city wall.

After going to the city, I saw that a Ming army was slowly approaching the city wall outside the city, playing the banner of “Taiping Camp”. However, the number of people is not much, a rough scan, there are only a hundred or ten people.

“Just so many people?”

Zhang Dade and Lu Gongming questioned at the same time: Do the Ming army dare to fight Deqing?
