Ding Ze couldn't bear Zhu'er leaving like this.
He turned around and knelt in front of Xu He and said: "Master, Zhu'er is my brother who grew up with me. Please..."
Before Ding Ze finished speaking, he was helped up by Xu He: "Ding Ze, I also regard Zhu'er as a brother, but with his character, if he stays in group training, something will happen to him in the future, either from group training or from himself. "
"Then..." Ding Ze wanted to say something for Zhu'er.
Xu He smiled and said: "He is still too unstable. Let's wait two years before talking. I will write to Uncle Zheng to explain the matter!"
Hearing that Xu He just wanted to use this incident to temper Zhu'er's temperament, not to dislike him, Ding Ze sighed and said: "Young Master has worked hard, I will tell Zhu'er."
After saying that, he took the money Xu He didn't send out last night and chased him out.
Unexpectedly, when he chased him out, the door of Xu's house was crowded with people, and his shadow was nowhere to be seen. Ding Ze was about to squeeze out of the crowd to chase, but he didn't expect Zhang Jingxian's personal soldiers to come.
Ding Ze looked outside the crowd and didn't find Zhu'er, so he could only deal with Xu He's matter first and lead the soldier in. As for Zhu'er, he could only go to Kuancha afterwards to calm him down. .
The soldiers came to invite Xu He to discuss matters, but Xu He went out again before he had any rest.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the door, the people saw it was him, and all the men, women, old and children shouted excitedly.
"Mr. Xu, Mr. Xu, Mr. Jie Yuanlang, is here!"
"Thank you Mr. Xu for surviving!"
"Well done, Mr. Xu. We Hailing people will always remember your kindness!"
"Mr. Xu, have the Japanese pirates left? Why don't you open the city gate? Have the Japanese pirates not left yet?"
…
Looking at the enthusiastic people, Xu He had no time to stop and speak one by one. He could only raise his hands and say before getting on the bus: "Dear fellow villagers, the Japanese pirates have retreated temporarily. The government is encircling and suppressing them. Everyone, please go home. There will be news soon. !”
After saying that, he got into the carriage and left with the help of Ding Ze and Zhang Jingxian's soldiers.
When I arrived at the Yamen, I saw that Chen Hua, Qin Lie and Zhou Bi had all been invited over.
When Qin Lie and Zhou Bi saw Xu He, they quickly stood up from the last seat and bowed to greet Xu He.
Seeing this, Xu He frowned and said, "The Japanese pirates have gone to the port!"
Zhang Jingxian and Chen Hua looked at each other in confusion, while Qin Lie and Zhou Bi sighed in their hearts, this man has an exquisite heart with seven orifices.
I saw him and the two of them being summoned by Zhang Jingxian, and I knew what had happened.
Zhang Jingxian said: "Speak loudly, if things are as Zhou Liangfu said, the Japanese pirates have gone to the port!"
Xu He said directly: "Sir, how is the port now? How many Japanese pirates have been detected? How is the situation on the river?"
Zhang Jingxian said: "The Japanese pirates arrived at the port at five o'clock today, and the port was caught off guard. But fortunately, we had already reminded everyone to be alert, so many wealthy households, banks, and ordinary people at the port fled to Xingang and Yangzhou for refuge. There was almost no one at the port. , the Japanese pirates went and pounced in vain!"
When Xu He heard this, his eyebrows immediately relaxed. This was the rare good news in this period of time.
"Chen Yingzhao is also smart. He discussed with the people of Caosi Yamen early and sent troops to escort the people of Caosi Yamen. He transported the money for crossing the river to Yangzhou and deposited it. He just left yesterday afternoon and the Japanese pirates came in the evening!"
Xu He nodded when he heard this. The last time he saw Chen Yingzhao in Huancha, he found that this man was very smart and knew how to adapt to changes. He was not an ordinary mediocre person, so he suggested to Zhang Jingxian that he should let Zhang Jingxian Chen Yingzhao personally stationed himself at the mouth of the canal.
It seems that my arrangement has indeed had an effect, and the effect is gratifying.
Chen Hua said at this time: "According to the news sent by Commander Chen, there were less than a thousand Japanese pirates on land. They failed to attack the port before dawn. At dawn, they divided their troops and went all the way to Yangzhou. Some of them followed them. The defenders of Xingang are facing a confrontation!"
Zhang Jingxian said worriedly at this time: "Speak loudly, Chen Yingzhao only left two thousand soldiers and horses to garrison in Yangzhou. I'm worried that if there is any loss in Yangzhou..."
Yangzhou is a big city in the southeast. If something happens, the superiors will be furious. Zhang Jingxian is understandably worried.
But Xu He shook his head and said: "The Japanese pirates went to Yangzhou purely to seek death. They will not be so stupid. For this plan, we only need to guard two places to survive the crisis safely!"
Countless experiences have verified Xu He's words. When Zhang Jingxian heard what he said so confidently, he was overjoyed and said in his heart: "Liangsheng, please tell me!"
Xu He said: "First, guard Xingang and prevent Japanese pirates from sneaking into the river from under the eyes of Yangzhou Wei. Chen Yingzhao is strictly ordered to kill these Japanese pirates on the shore! But be careful, you cannot be attacked by Japanese pirates on the river and on the shore by land and water!"
Zhang Jingxian was surprised when he heard this: "Are you saying that Yangzhou was a feint attack and the real goal of the Japanese pirates was Xingang?"
Chen Hua said: "Liangsheng, have you guessed wrong? There are only a few Japanese pirates. Commander Chen brought a full two thousand men and horses, and also built many trenches along the Xingang River!"
Xu He said: "There is no use in large numbers. The Japanese pirates have support from the river. In order to unite the large group of people, they will fight to the death!"
Zhang Jingxian's face, which had been a little happy just now, no longer had a smile on his face.
Xu He said: "First and second, sir, we must send a man and horse to the north of Rugao to garrison Baiju Pavilion!"
"ah!"
"this……"
When Zhang Jingxian and Chen Hua heard the words Baiju Pavilion, they were so shocked that they broke into cold sweat.
Yes, Baiju Pavilion is where the Xiaoling Mausoleum of the Wei Dynasty was located.
If the Japanese pirates attack this place, one of them will be counted as one, not to mention being an official, even whether they can save their lives will be a problem.
Xiaoling Guards usually have Xiaoling Guards, but the soldiers and horses of Xiaoling Guards have silver pewter spear heads, which look majestic, but in fact they are just old soldiers standing guard.
Tell them to fight the Japanese pirates to the death, stop joking.
Baiju Pavilion is under the jurisdiction of Yancheng County and is actually not within the jurisdiction of Zhang Jingxian's Haiphong Road.
But it happens to be close to Yangzhou Mansion, and it is related to the emperor's ancestors. If something happens, who knows whether the superiors will be angry with him.
Zhang Jingxian has already figured out the powerful relationship. He looked at Xu He gratefully and said: "Liangsheng, you have to mobilize troops for the first and second items, but where will the troops come from?"
"Gaoyouwei sent a thousand soldiers and horses to the south of Xiaoling to defend it!"
"Your Excellency still needs to remove people from Hailing County. Even if it is a hundred or fifty people, they will have to be removed. When the time comes, the court will ask about this matter, Your Excellency..."
He didn't say it clearly, but Zhang Jingxian already understood.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Xu He really put himself in his shoes in every aspect.
The Qianhu Army in Hailing was defeated, and the Qianhu Army in Tongzhou collapsed before they could engage the enemy.
What does this mean? It shows that he has neglected his duties in preparing the coastal defense force!
But if you work hard at this time and help guard Xiaoling Guard...
At this moment, Qin Lie came forward and said: "Two gentlemen, Young Master, Qin Lie has requested me to lead a regiment of trained troops to kill the bandits in Xingang!"
"Huh?" Zhang Jingxian looked at Qin Lie in surprise.
