Volume 1 Sleepy Shallows 010¡¾Night Attack¡¿

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    For smart people, some truths make sense.

    Wang Yongshi, Fei Yinghuan, Wei Jianxiong and others were completely caught in a misunderstanding. They only thought about how to defend the county seat, but never thought about taking the initiative to attack.

    After all, this is the first year of Chongzhen, and peasant uprisings have not yet become a common phenomenon.

    ?As a county magistrate, Wang Yongshi encountered the peasant army for the first time, and he only had a few yamen servants in his hands, and the defenders of the city had to recruit township bravery overnight.

    Zhao Han's suggestion was purely temporary, and he didn't even know the enemy's intelligence.

    At that time, he saw Master Li's head being carried along the street to show the public, so he made up his mind to take a gamble.

    The magistrate is a ruthless person who can kill the master and common people!

    Since he is a ruthless person, then give a risky strategy.  This is called watching people order dishes, and it is also called asking customers to kill chickens.

    If it was replaced by a mediocre official, Zhao Han would definitely offer a conservative strategy, so that he would not be boring himself.

    ? When I returned to the county office again, the treatment was different, and I was escorted and guided by officials throughout the process.

    Although Zhao Han made great achievements, he was not complacent. He cupped his hands respectfully and said, "Dare to ask the old man's name."

    It is estimated that the magistrate of Wang County killed people to establish his prestige, and Zhao Han learned that the county appreciates him. The official did not dare to neglect, and replied with a smile: "Mianzun, surnamed Yang, called Shouzhong, is just a small official in the county government office."

    "It turned out to be Mr. Yang." Zhao Han complimented.

    The clerk hurriedly said, "I dare not call you Mr."

    Chatting all the way, gradually reaching the gate of the county government.

    There is a pavilion on the west side of the gate, and the ground is obviously worn out, so people must come in and out frequently.

    Zhao Han asked casually: "What is that?"

    The civil official introduced: "This is the Shenming Pavilion, which is specially used for reconciliation of small cases."

    Zhao Han was quite interested and asked for details.

    ?After some explanations by the civil officials, Zhao Han's inherent cognition was overturned. It turns out that the trial of cases in the Ming Dynasty did not directly beat the drums.

    On the west side of the gate of the county government, there must be a Shenming Pavilion.

    For civil cases such as property disputes and fights, you must first go to the Shenming Pavilion for persuasion.

    ?The Lijia chiefs from both sides of the case, as well as the relevant officials of the county government, presented their interests to the parties together.  If you can settle out of court, you don't need to go to court.  If both parties are unwilling to make concessions, then the case will be filed with drumming, and the county magistrate will personally go up to the court for trial.

    Is it very familiar?

    Judicial mediation!

    This thing was pioneered by Zhu Yuanzhang, and it can liberate the governors of states and counties from all over the world from trivial matters.

    Of course there are also flaws.

    Following the corruption of Ming Dynasty officials, the chief officials of the county government began to slack off, leaving everything to be handled by the civil servants.  Civil officials can collude with Lijia Chief to coerce the parties to make concessions during the judicial mediation stage, resulting in the disadvantaged party always suffering from being dumb, and many old officials even control civil power because of this.

    Since traveling back to ancient times, we must understand various social situations, otherwise we will not know which door to go to in a lawsuit in the future.

    Seeing Zhao Han asking this and that, he seemed to be very interested in the county government, so the civil servants took the initiative to act as a guest tour guide.

    He pointed to the second gate of the county government office and said: "This is the gate of ceremonies, which is not often opened. Only when the county magistrate takes office, welcomes distinguished guests, sacrifices and celebrations will the gate of ceremonies be opened to enter and exit."

    Zhao Han immediately understood: "The door of etiquette."

    "Young master is correct," the civil official pointed to the side gate on the east side of Yimen, "this is the human gate, also known as Ximen, for the county lords and relatives to come and go."

    Zhao Han pointed to the side door on the west side and asked, "Where is that door?"

    The civil official explained: "That is the ghost gate, also known as the absolute gate. It is used to arraign serious offenders, or escort death row prisoners to execution."

    Zhao Han said: "Unlucky."

    "Isn't it just bad luck? It's windy if you get close." The official said with a smile.

    Inside the gate of Yi is the lobby, where the county magistrate Shengtang hears cases.

    On the east and west sides of the lobby, there are money and grain depots and military equipment depots, and the six rooms of the county government are located on the left and right.  The money and grain depot is in charge of the county magistrate, which is equivalent to the financial office and archives room; the military equipment depot is in charge of the Dian Shi, and there are instruments of torture, weapons and their lists in it.

    "In front is the gate of the house, and it is inconvenient for me to send it off." The official stopped walking.

    Zhao Han cupped his hands and said, "Thank you."

    The gate of the house is separated from the inside and outside, and there is a porter guard. If you want to see the magistrate, you must notify the county magistrate.

    Inside the gate of the house is the second hall, the real daily office of the magistrate, through the second hall to the living inner house of the magistrate.

    Zhao Han stopped and walked along the way, keeping in mind the layout of the county government.

    This thing is standard, north and south.OK, remember one and remember all.

    "Young master, you are back," the maid said with a smile, "The hospital just delivered the medicine, and I am going to cook it."

    Zhao Han hurriedly said: "Let my sister worry about it."

    After talking for a few words, the maid went to decoct the medicine.

    Zhao Han came to the hospital bed and put his hand on the little sister's forehead. He was still a little hot, but his body temperature had dropped.

    Just afraid of repeating again, ups and downs, which makes people worry.

    Zhao Han got up and walked to the window, opened the window to see the scenery outside, but what he thought about was whether the night attack went well

    With heavy rewards, there must be brave men. Five hundred strong men were quickly recruited, and there were dozens more.

    Wang Yongshi temporarily organized the more than 500 strong men into twelve teams.

    Another twenty-four people were selected to serve as Wu Zhang and Wu deputy respectively.  They don't do flag command training either, they just march forward when they beat the drums, and retreat when they hear the gongs.

    It doesn't matter if they make mistakes on the battlefield, their enemies are worse anyway.

    After killing pigs and making rice, filling his stomach, and drinking a bowl of Zhuangxing wine, Wang Yongshi led the troops to set off in person.

    Marching forward with a torch, Wang Yongshi said as he walked, "Brother Dazhao, do you still plan to continue the imperial examination?"

    Fei Yinghuan held the hilt of his sword in one hand, held the torch high in the other, and sighed: "I won the exam when I was weak, and I have been in the general examination for twenty years. It is impossible to give up halfway, right?"

    "If you keep failing in the imperial examination, is it possible that you will have to take the exam for another 20 years?" Wang Yongshi persuaded, "Don't take the exam again, let the money go to the official department, and with the shadow of your ancestor Fei's ancestors, you can easily pass the exam."  Get a magistrate."

    Fei Yinghuan muttered: "I took the Jinshi exam not for myself, but for the entire Yanshan Fei family."

    Wang Yongshi stopped talking, feeling that Fei Yinghuan was very pitiful.

    The Fei family in Qianshan Mountain reached its peak in the sixth, seventh and eighth generations, with an average of two Jinshi in each generation, and countless Juren and Xiucai.

    Uncles and nephews are ranked first, father and son are in the top five, and brothers are both cabinet members.

    What a sight!

    However, starting from the ninth generation, the Fei family in Qianshan began to decline, and there was not even a Jinshi.

    The tenth generation was even worse. They were all scholars, and Fei Yinghuan was the only one.

    He is the hope of the whole family, the chief patriarch of the Fei family, and the separated Henglin Fei family, Hekou Fei family, Lieqiao Fei family, Ehu Fei familyall count on him to shine on the family, how dare Fei Yinghuan not continue to test  go down?

    Fei Yinghuan said: "Don't mention these things, today's smooth killing of thieves is considered a meritorious service on the battlefield."

    Wang Yongshi shook his head and sighed: "What kind of meritorious service is this? It's just a group of hungry people who have nowhere to go. Brother Dazhao will fight tonight, but brother Yu will fight in the future. It is my battlefield to benefit one side. Jinghai County is waiting for prosperity.  How much effort does it take to regain some vitality."

    Fei Yinghuan comforted: "You comfort the people, I study, let's encourage you together."

    "Da da da da!"

    In the dark, a horse gallops forward.

    Wei Jianxiong got off his horse and said, "Young Master, the county lord, put out the torch soon."

    Wang Yongshi asked: "How is the enemy's situation?"

    Wei Jianxiong sneered and said: "That bandit is the first to break the sky, and he doesn't know how to fight at all. Not to mention sending out sentries, he didn't even set up a camp. The thieves scattered in the houses in the town, and only threw a few people outside the town to watch the night."

    Wang Yongshi was instantly relieved that the battle would surely be won, and he immediately ordered: "Extinguish all the torches, grab the belts of your companions from front to back, and march in silence with chopsticks in your mouth!"

    More than five hundred warriors gradually approached Duliu Town.

    Fei Yinghuan and Wei Jianxiong, master and servant, led more than 200 people in ambush in the south of Zhennan to wait for orders.

    Wang Yongshi personally led more than 200 people and went around to the east of the town to prepare for a surprise attack.

    West of the town is the canal.

    Zhenbei was left for the rioters to flee.

    Wang Yongshi quietly went around to the east side of the town, rested for a while, and said to Chen Dianshi, who was carrying a big drum, "You come to play the drum!"

    "Obey!" Chen Dianshi was quite disturbed, but also a little excited.

    Wang Yongshi said again: "Send the order down and light the torch!"

    "Boom boom boom boom boom!"

    "Kill, smash the thieves!"

    In the dead of night, dull drums sounded, and torches were lit, accompanied by fierce shouts.

    In the direction of Zhennan, Fei Yinghuan immediately led the crowd to respond.

    Hundreds of temporarily recruited warriors planted more than 3,000 torches on the ground, waved the torches and shouted loudly, instantly creating the illusion of thousands of troops.
