"Brother Daniel? Are you at home?"
Guancheng County, south of the city, in front of a house.
"Zai Zai Zai, Xu Fangzheng, why are you here?"
The door of the house opened and Liu Rengui walked out. This guy even changed his name after sneaking into Guancheng County last month. Now his name is Ren Daniu.
"Alas! Aren't the officers and soldiers of the county government looking for Ye Xian Cheng everywhere? They also say that he is a rebel, but Ye Xian Cheng is so good to the people on weekdays, how can he be a rebel? I am becoming more and more dissatisfied with this world. I don’t understand! Oh, Daniel, in a while, the officers and soldiers will check our shop, so I will go to each house in advance to see if anyone has hidden Ye Xian Cheng! "
Xu Fang was an old man in his sixties, with a kind face and a kind face. He looked at Liu Rengui and talked for a long time before explaining his true purpose.
In the Tang Dynasty, when there was a city system of squares, there was naturally a square official. This square official was not only responsible for the opening and closing of the square gates, but also maintained the order within the square on weekdays.
Liu Rengui was slightly shocked, but he pretended to complain in frustration: "Fangzheng, why is this city and county so chaotic recently? The county magistrate of the county government was actually regarded as a spy, and the city gates were closed every day to prevent others from letting anyone in. Get out, hey, you said we were originally here to help people manage the city and county's purchase of goods, but this delay has been almost a month, what a huge loss, what a huge loss!"
Xu Fangzheng couldn't bear hearing this. He had heard about Liu Rengui's "experience" before, and now that he was "trapped" in Guancheng, he sympathized with him, so Xu Fangzheng comforted him and said: "Big cow, This is all caused by the government. I don’t want to see you lose money, old man! Now you can live here with peace of mind. When the city gate opens, I will come over and tell you!"
Liu Rengui said gratefully: "Hey! Thank you Xu Fangzheng! Oh, um, you are here to check for spies, Fangzheng, please come in and take a look!"
Xu Fangzheng nodded slightly and said, "Okay, I'll go in and take a look first!"
After that, he walked towards the courtyard with his hands behind his back.
"Hey! Is Xu Fangzheng coming?"
"Xu Fangzheng!"
In the courtyard, Liu Rengui's "brothers" saw Xu Fangzheng coming in and hurriedly came over to say hello. Xu Fangzheng nodded and walked straight to the back room.
As a result, naturally he didn't see a single "outsider".
"Xu Fangzheng, have you finished checking? Apart from rough guys like us, where else will anyone come here?"
A quarter of an hour later, Liu Rengui saw Xu Fang walking out of the side yard and hurriedly approached him and asked.
"Well! There are no outsiders. That big brother and little brother, I won't bother you anymore. Say goodbye!"
Xu Fangzheng bowed his hands and said goodbye.
Liu Rengui watched him leave, then turned to look at the big men behind him, and said: "Old Feng, when someone comes from the county government, you can help me deal with it. During the day, I met with Mr. Wang. If today If he personally leads the search tonight, he may recognize me, and I will go to the tunnel tonight to accompany Wei Zuocheng and the others!"
"Okay! Don't worry, Sir, I, Old Feng, will handle it carefully!"
An older middle-aged man responded with his fists clasped.
Liu Rengui nodded, went to clean up inside the house, and then jumped into the well...
Half an hour later, the house was slapped again.
"Bang, bang, bang! Open the door, open the door, the government is investigating!"
Lao Feng, who had previously promised Liu Rengui to deal with the officers and soldiers, quickly opened the door.
"Come on, come on! Hey, fellow military lords, come in and have a sip of tea!"
Old Feng said with a smile on his face.
Because he saw that among this group of people, they were all wearing the clothes of county government agents, and no one was wearing official uniforms, which meant that the chief secretary did not come in person.
If the King of Hell doesn't come, then these little devils will surely be able to get rid of them with some benefits.
"Hmph! I heard Xu Fangzheng say that none of you are locals. Where did you come from? Are there any other unidentified people staying here today?"
The leader said arrogantly.
By the way, if low-level officials like them go to search people's houses, how can they live their lives if they don't find ways to collect some money and money from the people?
Old Feng stuffed a few Tang Yuan cards with great discernment and said: "Master Jun, we came to Guancheng County to buy goods for a boss in Xuzhou. Unexpectedly, Guancheng County stopped letting people leave the city. We will live here temporarily! This house has always been occupied by us, and no outsiders have ever come here!"
The catcher nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well, I won't know until I check if there are any outsiders. Come in and search for me. Be gentle and don't damage other people's things!"
As the saying goes, eating people is short-tongued and soft-handed, so the head catcher is also a smart man.
"yes!"
Five government officials entered the mansion, and the head catcher was invited to the front hall to drink tea. .
Two quarters of an hour later, a group of people went out and left. Naturally, Ye Minglei was not found inside. It was a near miss!
………………………
Chang'an, Lantian County, Yunshan No. 1 Villa.
It was late at night, but the lights in the study room in the other courtyard were still on.
"Liu Rengui! I wonder if this Liu Rengui is the Liu Rengui in history!"
Li Zexuan leaned on his chair and looked at the information on the table that Li Yu had sent in the morning. He was in a daze for a while.
During the day, his focus was on the rebellion of the Cui family, and he did not pay attention to a key figure in this matter-Liu Rengui!
If he remembers well, Liu Rengui was a very famous general in the Tang Dynasty. In the third year of Longshuo, Emperor Gaozong, the Japanese state became increasingly powerful and began to expand its ambitions. At that time, Emperor Tenji of Japan attempted to occupy the Korean Peninsula and then the mainland. Therefore, he supported Baekje against Silla. And sent nearly 50,000 troops and thousands of warships to directly confront Datang.
At that time, Liu Rengui of the Tang Dynasty only led 7,000 people. He encountered the main force of the Japanese army at the mouth of Baijiang River. In a great battle, the Japanese army was almost completely wiped out.
In the Battle of Baijiangkou, the Tang Dynasty navy gave full play to its advantages and defeated the Japanese navy, which had several times its own strength and ships. It can be called a classic naval battle in which a small number defeated a large number. This battle was the first battle between China and Japan as national entities. It was also the earliest known international battle in Northeast Asia. The final result was the victory of the Tang Dynasty and Silla coalition forces. Basically, It established the political, economic and cultural pattern of Northeast Asia for more than a thousand years.
At the same time, this war can be regarded as teaching Japan a lesson, allowing Japan to recognize the huge gap between itself and the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, until Toyotomi Hideyoshi invaded Korea in 1592, Japan never dared to attack Korea again for nearly a thousand years. China goes to war.
"Feiji, tomorrow you will go to Zhengzhou with the army. After you go, you can stay with Tiedan, or you can work as a personal guard for Uncle Li! If you meet a person named Liu Rengui, if he is in danger, you can If you can help, do your best! After destroying the rebels, take Liu Rengui back to Chang'an, I want to see him!"
Li Zexuan came to the door and ordered Pang Feiji outside.
He was an angry young man, and in his modern eyes, Liu Rengui was an out-and-out national hero. He not only enhanced the national prestige, but also ensured that China would not be invaded by the Japanese for nearly a thousand years. Such a person, he is very I want to see it in person!
"Master Marquis, if my subordinate goes to Zhengzhou, who will protect you?"
Pang Feiji said somewhat reluctantly.
Li Zexuan glared and said angrily: "Am I protecting you? Or are you protecting me? Do I still need your protection? Just go if you are told. This matter is very important to me! Go and take care of it!"
After that, he went directly back to the house to sleep.
Pang Feiji scratched his head and had no choice but to go back to pack his bags.
