In Daluo City, Jiaozhou, Zeng Dagon, who was a quiet naval envoy, also looked into the distance with a sense of feeling, and had the illusion that something bad had happened; in fact, during the siege of the city. , The atmosphere in the city was a little weird and worried, but he couldn't tell why. Therefore, he can only step up the patrol in the city, and check and put an end to those deceptive words that confuse the crowd in his eyes.
But all kinds of non-theories and rumors are still endless like weeds, and they spread quickly in the city.
The grass thief camp outside the city is still attacking with all kinds of equipment every day, and the number of pontoons built on the Zhuluan River is increasing. Every day, you can see various flags coming in droves. . It made him feel that he was completely abandoned by these local tycoons, big households and people.
He could only prohibit the civilians and civilians from going up to the city, but he could not prevent the unity and native soldiers who helped defend the city, and spread his own knowledge privately; even if he beheaded more than a dozen people and beaten an army of dozens of people. Stick, but there is still no way to change this situation. On the contrary, it has made those cases of prevarication and procrastination and violation of Yin and Yang become more obvious and common.
Therefore, during this period of time, he was really unwilling to eat and was troubled day and night. Even the gentle and charming of Xinna's concubine, as well as the first-hand water dragon soup he was good at, could not calm his anxiety and doubts.
After all, he was just a military commander who had the courage to do things and was the first to fight. How to deploy troops and generals on the battlefield to capture the flag and defeat the enemy, or to fight against the enemy based on the city is certainly his good point; but how to manage this It is his obvious shortcoming to manage the heart of the city and handle the relationship with the big family in the city. So he has to make good use of the current stalemate situation.
For example, under the current threat of foreign enemies, he also needs time to slowly adapt and adapt, and get along with those famous people and families. This is also the most basic homework for an Annan Protector and Jinghai Jiedu Envoy; in fact, it has been inherited by successive protectors and managers. No matter who is in charge and in power, these local clans and tycoons and their natives are indispensable. The assistance and cooperation of the soldiers; in order to open up the situation in this place in southern Xinjiang, or to make a difference and accomplish something. Especially in the situation where the chaos of the imperial court is more than just having no time to go south, but the grass thieves are stealing from outside the ridge.
Thinking of this, he became a little bit angry again, because the invisible control and resistance in the city made his original plan to reorganize the army and wait for an opportunity to carry out a large-scale counterattack, which was delayed again and again. After all, there are only a few hundred people in the close team he brought. It is no better than the grass thieves outside the city to have a whole army that can suppress the situation; but he can only rely heavily on and draw soldiers from those places for help.
So even if he wants to plan a counterattack in a short time to stabilize the people, he must compromise and tolerate those cities with resources in exchange for their support and assistance; of course this is only temporary, he can only Said so relieved to himself.
Of course, once he successfully defeated the grass thieves outside the city and established authority, the majority of these big households in the city would not have the value of continuing; it was like he was in the Northern Army. Like the stories that have been done to those stubborn or insatiable tycoons, there are ways and means to concoct them.
But before that, they will only be able to see the changing situation in front of them, so they must see appropriate encouragement and hope in their areas of expertise. After thinking about these joints again, he called on the spot his pro-military Yan Zeng Quanxing and asked on the spot:
"How are the preparations in the army, how many people can go with me..."
"Among the camp soldiers and the united children, it is possible to make up three camps of men and horses..."
Zeng Quanxing replied meticulously.
"In addition, there are some gathered guards. If you misappropriate armor from other places, you can barely make up the outfit of the four camps..."
"Then don't wait any longer..."
Zeng Dagon said decisively.
"Waiting for the opportunity to gradually replace him from the city. To make him full and rest and wait outside Dong Luomen, I should have another use..."
"promise..."
After Zeng Quanxing took the order, he called Li Haoran, the Confucian Eye Officer of the Protectorate, who was in charge of monitoring the city's movements.
"Is there anything unusual in the city lately..."
"However, there are a lot of banquets at the Gaoming Palace, and the crowds are often full of friends..."
Li Haoran thought about it a little bit.
"Other than that, the big family Su and, who intend to enter into a marriage with their children, have already exchanged employment letters..."
"..."
"Then Fan Changshi Office, can you do anything about it..."
After hearing some things from him, Zeng Dagon asked again with a little impatience.
"According to the reports from the people below, this person has been administering a book at home. He has never left the house..."
Hearing this name, Kong Eye Officer Li Haoran's eyes flickered before continuing;
"That's good,"
Zeng Dagon let out a sigh of relief unconsciously.
"If you don't, don't blame me for not remembering old feelings..."
To be honest, he still has some fear in his heart for this well-known figure in the local area, and he was released from the thieves' army. If it weren't for the somewhat constrained or rat-injured device here, he would have sent someone to resolve such instability factors long ago.
As for the old sentiment, it is even more a joke. Many years ago, he was only a small school in front of Gao Ling’s public account, and the other party is already one of the important staff of Zuo Mu. It is true that he has nothing to do with self-sufficient intersection mutual affection. But the current plan, this one is a little more useful.
"Some of these days are also thinking about it again and again... for the tens of thousands of people in this city... or just give up one or two soldiers..."
Afterwards, he said to Fan Chuocheng who was brought to the palace.
"Specially asked Fan Sheng to work hard and take a trip outside the city..."
However, after Fan Chuo was taken out, his sincere and solemn expression disappeared suddenly, and his eyes became sharp and sharp again. The remaining usefulness of this fan is in this case, hoping to let the grass thieves relax their vigilance and guard, and achieve the desired effect.
As for his own fate, whether he was killed by the chaos or became the object of venting the anger of those angry grass thieves, then dying in the thieves army was not the result of his benevolence and benevolence without retribution.
At this time, on the dense clouds in the sky, there was a sudden roar of faint thunder, but there was a faint electric light accumulating in it, just like Zeng Dagon's mood at this moment, but it is rushing and rolling; and Let him feel at this moment as if God was helping; because if he didn't surprise him, the rainy season in the land of Annan was about to come.
Whether this is for the defending party or for the things he is about to do, it is a great news and time. (End of this chapter)
