Be the emperor from the postman

Chapter 27

Hong Chengchou frowned and remained silent.

The situation in Shaanxi has deteriorated to this point, and the governor still wants to appease him?

Even if these traitors were allowed to go home to farm, they would only continue to be thieves under the drought and lack of food.

There is no way to wipe out the thieves in a short time.

If the imperial court can't provide food relief, and can't quickly quell the rebellion, then there is no way to appease them.

Hong Chengchou thought secretly, since he couldn't solve the problem of food for the rebels in the future, he should solve all the rebels!

In this way, there is no one to feed, and there is no need for food.

Of course, he will not explain this to Yang He, who wants to appease the rebels!

After all, the thieves are also citizens of Daming.

"He Jinchao, a postman, must have killed officials and rebelled in desperation." Yang He stroked his beard and said:
"This person is quite brave and resourceful, and he can force wealthy households in the city to take the initiative to give him things, and he has some tricks.

You can write him a letter and tell him to surrender and disband the team, so that he can avoid the death penalty and come to my account to listen to the order. "

Hong Chengchou did not expect that Yang He would pay attention to a small postman.

"The old man just wants a thousand dollars to buy a horse bone."

Hong Chengchou stood up, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, He Jinzhao, since this thief has killed an official and tasted the sweetness, I'm afraid he won't surrender easily."

Yang He also knew, but no matter what, he had to take action.

He wants to set an example of someone who knows how to return from a wrong path.

It doesn't seem so flimsy to write a memorial to His Majesty at that time, and I beg His Majesty to give me more time.

"Let's do this first."

"Yes."

Hong Chengchou responded, and immediately wrote a letter.

Yang He was very satisfied after reading it, and just wanted to ask someone to send him away: "Yanyan, do you think He Jinzhao can read?"

Hong Chengchou was taken aback by the question, and his essay persuading surrender was brilliant.

He Jinzhao couldn't read, so didn't he show his eyebrows to the blind?

"Probably literate, but not many."

Yang He thought for a while, and wrote a new letter:
"He Jinchao, if you surrender to the imperial court, you will be spared the death penalty, and you will be used under my tent. Your future will be limitless."

"Master is wise."

Hong Chengchou immediately tore up his gorgeous article persuading surrender.

Yang He put down the pen in his hand: "Hey, it's good to save some Ming people from dying."

"My lord, we will hurry up to encircle and suppress the king and Gao's thieves. The court's rations won't arrive, and we need to ask the gentry in Qingyang City to provide some rations and grass."

"The old man will go and beg them himself."

The trilateral governor's mansion was originally in Guyuan, but Guyuan was defeated and was looted. Wang Jiayin and others gathered in Huanglong Mountain between Qingyang and Yan'an to hide.

Hong Chengchou nodded, took the letter and went to find the messenger himself.

"General He, I want your son He Zan to deliver the letter."

He Huchen is now serving as the commander-in-chief of Ningxia, hunting and killing the rebel Zhou Dawang, and under the orders of Governor Yang He, he and Hong Chengchou encircled and suppressed Wang Jiayin and others.

Don't look at him as a general soldier, but he is still inferior to Hong Chengchou, a civil official.

"What letter?"

Hong Chengchou briefly said the governor's order.

He Huchen thought for a while: "My son is still young, and under impulse, he is easy to provoke the rebels, and he never returns."

"I heard that your son is brave and like a father. If he can come back successfully, I will definitely recommend him as the general in the army."

Before He Huchen could speak, his son He Zan said, "I'm willing to go."

"it is good."

Hong Chengchou stood up and patted He Zan on the shoulder:

"You inquire about He Jinzhao's truth, and in the end you tell He Jinzhao that Wang Jiayin and others gathered in Huanglong Mountain."

"I understand."

He Huchen was a little worried about his son, so he sent fifty riders to protect him and deliver the letter.

If the gang of thieves are weak, they will be wiped out directly.

If there is no chance, send the letter and come back.

All in all, it is quite considerate to be recommended as general manager after sending a letter.

Hong Chengchou would rather have these thieves gather together, saving him from encircling and suppressing them one by one.

When there are many people, there are many thoughts, so who do you listen to?
They have more conflicts.

In Ganquan City.

The person at the fourth whistle finally put on new clothes, and at the same time, He Jinzhao spent money to find the Sun family to order a small thin quilt.

With the purchase of Dang Shousu, a private salt dealer, he bought a large amount of salt and customized the military kettle.

There is also training in summer, so drink more light salt water.

The most important thing is to buy some bows and arrows to support the cavalry.

The firecrackers were not purchased, only a dozen or so antique three-eyed blunderbusses were found in the county government arsenal.

Southern soldiers like to use bird guns, while northern soldiers feel unsafe and easily hurt themselves.

The main reason is official corruption. Even if the craftsmen are highly skilled, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

The bird guns they made were not up to standard at all.

Coupled with the opportunity of the battle, there is more gunpowder and less gunpowder, which is always a delay.

He Jinzhao was running with the soldiers carrying a heavy load.

"Just think about it, what you are carrying on your back is food."

"Captain."

Gao Yigong immediately jumped off the horse, walked to the side and whispered: "There is a situation."

He Jinzhao ran out of the team and let others take the lead.

"what's up?"

"Outside the city, there is a messenger who claims to be the governor of the three sides, Yang He, and wants to see you. He looks like an official army, and he brought fifty fully armed cavalry with him."

He Jinzhao followed Gao Yigong to the top of the city, he didn't expect the officers and soldiers to come so quickly.

Observe carefully, there are fifty cavalrymen outside the city, and their equipment, there are proper heavy weapons.

The soldiers on the city wall were all sweating.

The government finally came.

There is no doubt that the people are afraid of officials.

Even though many people became rebels and walked on the road of rebellion, when they saw officials, they felt guilty.

He Zan watched the flags fluttering on the city wall, running past a group of neatly formed soldiers from time to time.

It made him very cautious, it didn't look like he could win it with just fifty rides.

When he arrived in Ganquan County from Qingyang, he didn't rush to see the messenger, but sent someone to investigate carefully, and met the local local snake Fan's family.

After learning a lot about the situation, he only showed up outside Ganquan County today.

"He Jinchao, my name is He Zan, and my father is He Huchen, the commander-in-chief of Ningxia. Do you dare to go out of the city to tell me?"

Dang Shousu leaned his head on the wall and asked, "Your relatives?"

He Jinzhao shook his head, he didn't have such rich relatives.

"He Zan, right? Do you dare to enter the city to tell me?" He Jinzhao roared from the city.

"Master, don't fall for the enemy's aggressive tactics."

The captain of the guards on the side whispered to He Zan: "I see that the rogues on the city wall are quite organized in their marching, and it doesn't seem like a postman can do it."

He Zan nodded, but he felt that He Jinzhao, who was oppressed in the past, killed officials and rebelled when he was desperate.

People with the same surname will build relationships when they meet, telling that they belonged to one family 500 years ago.

"If I go to the city, what will you do if you take me?" He Zan shouted out of nowhere: "I have already guessed your little thoughts."
