East Factory Governor

Chapter 389 Qin Shuhuai's Smile
Qin Shuhuai sat on the horse, staring at Wang Hannian with cold eyes, neither retreating nor advancing.

Meng Hu, Lai San'er and others were all gearing up and getting ready, they waited for Qin Shuhuai's order and rushed in immediately.

From their point of view, the city gate is open now, and they are all cavalry, if they force their way through, they will definitely be able to break into the city!
As long as you enter the city, who is really so bold as to dare to attack the imperial envoy?

At this time, Zhang Xiao, who was usually the calmest, came over immediately, leaned into Qin Shuhuai's ear and said, "Master, please think twice."

Li Jingting also came up and said in a low voice, "My lord, it looks like Yang He is ready. If we force our way in now, we can just give him a handle."

Qin Shuhuai waved his hands expressionlessly, signaling them to back off.

In fact, his previous thought was the same as that of Meng Hu, Lai San'er and others, thinking that as long as he rushed to the city, Yang He would not dare to do anything to him.

But now, he has changed his mind.

If Yang He just wanted to show himself off, then he would have closed the city gate, because this was the safest way, allowing him to pretend to be aggressive and avoiding a real fight between the two sides.

But he didn't close the gates!

This means that he is not afraid of a fight between the two sides, and he even hopes to break in by himself!
Dozens of soldiers were blocked at the door. If they wanted to rush in, even if they didn't do anything on their own side, these soldiers would be injured by the horses.

In this way, no matter where you go to reason, it will be regarded as your first move!
If you attack the officers and soldiers, then the name of rebellion cannot escape.

At that time, Yang He is bound to close the city gate and mobilize the garrison in the city to "suppress" in the name of countering the rebellion.For him, it would be best if he could kill himself. If he couldn't kill himself, he could at least wipe out the thousand and five hundred people.

I have no one under my command, and I was labeled as a "rebel". Even with the imperial decree of Chongzhen, there is no way to gain a foothold on the three sides.

You must know that Chongzhen's imperial decree is only auxiliary. If his imperial decree is really so effective, why do you still come to the three sides?Chongzhen himself decreed that all Donglin Party posts should be removed.

So you can't follow Yang He's way!
But you think I can't help it?
If you, Yang He, have Zhang Liang's plan, I will have the wall ladder!

Thinking of this, Qin Shuhuai said coldly to Wang Hannian, "Wang Hannian, go back and tell Yang He that he wants to invite Ben Shaobao to enter Taiyuan City. It's not that easy! In a few days, I want him to kneel at the gate of the city to welcome Ben Shaobao in. !"

Then, he turned his horse's head and said to everyone, "Turn around and go to Wuyuan camp!"

Lai San'er became anxious when he heard it, and immediately came up and said, "Guard master, let's go now? If you lose, you don't lose. Why are we afraid of him?"

Meng Hu also said angrily, "That's right, this old man surnamed Wang has insulted you so much, I'm just about to drag him off his horse and beat him up!"

Qin Shuhuai said in a tone of ice, "I said withdraw!"

When Lai San'er and Meng Hu heard this, they had no choice but to angrily swallow what they wanted to say, and waved to the Jianghe Gang brothers, signaling to retreat.

Wang Hannian looked at Qin Shuhuai's back as he went away, and smiled disdainfully, "The demon of Ming Dynasty? Hehe, it's just a yellow-haired kid. I want to fight Yang Du, but I'm still young!"

More than 30 people headed south all the way to Wuyuan Camp, [-] miles south of Taiyuan City.

Qin Shuhuai remained silent along the way, and Meng Hu and the others did not dare to disturb him when they saw this, so they followed silently.

Morale was a bit low. The members of the Jianghe gang had never suffered such a loss, and everyone was filled with righteous indignation and held back their anger.

When it was getting dark, we finally arrived at Wuyuan Camp.

The Wuyuan camp had [-] soldiers and horses, led by Wang Chengce, the deputy general of Shanxi.Wang Chengce is Wang Baochang's nephew of the same family, but he is about the same age as Wang Baochang. He has always been Wang Baochang's confidant, and naturally he is also Yang He's confidant.

Yang He wanted to transfer 500 people from Qin Shuhuai to Wuyuan Camp, just to make Wang Chengce look after the 500 people.

After Qin Shuhuai arrived at the Wuyuan camp, there were still no important officials to greet him, only two guerrilla generals came out to welcome Qin Shuhuai into the camp on behalf of Wang Chengce.

When the Jianghe Gang and Jin Yiwei saw that a small deputy commander didn't care about Qin Shuhuai, they became even more angry.

Qin Shuhuai didn't say a word, and followed the two guerrilla generals into the camp.

The two guerrilla generals led the more than 500 people to an open space in the camp, and one of them said to Qin Shuhuai, "Qin Shaobao, we only have this open space, so you and your brothers can stay here. By the way, no matter if it’s a tent or something, if you need anything, just ask the general, and the general will definitely help to raise it.”

Qin Shuhuai glanced at the open space, and saw that the open space was slightly sunken compared to the surrounding terrain.If it rains at night, or the snow melts into water, there will definitely be floods in the camp.

Obviously, this was intentional by Wang Chengce.

This is the rhythm that Donglin Party intends to teach itself how to be a human being?
Qin Shuhuai smiled, not very pretty, even a little scary under the shadow of the torch.

"Where's your Vice President Wang?" Qin Shuhuai asked.

"Returning to my lord, General Wang is busy with military affairs. He is currently discussing with other generals the matter of suppressing bandits, so he cannot come to pick him up in person. I ask Qin Shaobao to forgive me."

"Take me to see him."

"This……"

Qin Shuhuai said word by word, "This Shaobao wants to read out the imperial decree, do you want to resist the decree?"

Yang He can despise the imperial decree, but the two little guerrilla generals dare not.

The two were startled, and one of them hurriedly said, "Don't dare, Shaobao, please come with me. However, you brothers, let's camp here first."

Meng Hu was furious, he pulled out his long knife and put it on the man's neck, and said angrily, "Bold! The Imperial Envoy's personal soldier, is it your turn to command?"

"No, no, that's not what it means."

The two generals suddenly had cramps in their calves and hurriedly denied it.

Then obediently lead the way.

Qin Shuhuai led more than 500 people to Wang Chengce's tent. The other soldiers in the camp saw that they were brought by two generals, so they didn't ask any more questions.

They didn't dare to ask too much.The deputy chief slapped the imperial envoy's face, why are we going to join in the fun?Haven't you heard that the imperial envoy is the world-renowned Qin Shaobao, who dared to provoke him?

In front of Wang Chengce's tent, there was a group of loyal soldiers in the center. Seeing that Qin Shuhuai had brought so many people, he immediately came up to block the way, "Stop, this is the general's camp, your camp is not here."

Qin Shuhuai said to Meng Hu gloomily, "What are you still doing?"

As soon as the words were finished, before Meng Hu could issue an order, the suffocated Jiang He gang pulled out their weapons and put them on the necks of that group of soldiers, and the rest of them immediately surrounded the camp.

Several teams of patrolling soldiers nearby were dumbfounded when they saw it, not knowing whether to help or not to help.

Qin Shuhuai said coldly, "I am an imperial envoy who was ordered by the emperor to inspect the three sides. Now I have to thoroughly investigate the military equipment and food and payment accounts of the Wuyuan camp. All idlers and others will stand back, otherwise they will be killed."

Sure enough, these people stopped immediately.But in the darkness, a few people ran out quietly.

Qin Shuhuai got off the horse, and before getting off the horse, he secretly took something XZ from the cloth pouch on the horse's back and stuffed it into his sleeve.

Then he brought Meng Hu and Lai San'er into the camp.

Wang Chengce stood up, and led the two lieutenants to casually cup their hands at Qin Shuhuai, and then said flatly, "My next official, Shanxi Deputy Commander Wang Chengce, welcomes the Imperial Envoy and Prince Shaobao Qin."

After that, he sat back on his seat and never looked at Qin Shuhuai again.

Qin Shuhuai looked around the camp and saw a few maps on the table, as if they were really studying the bandits.

But this is not important.

He put the things in his sleeves on the table.

It's two small bottles of shochu, for warming up on the road.

When Wang Chengce and the two lieutenants saw it, they couldn't help laughing in their hearts. Did the imperial envoy come here specially to treat us to a drink?He thought he could get close to us by doing this?ridiculous!
Is it funny?
Qin Shuhuai indeed smiled sinisterly.

Then he yelled, "Bold Wang Chengce, how dare you drink and indulge in the barracks! Someone, tie me up!"
