PS: Thanks to book friend He Cheng for promising the reward.
Fugu County soon fell into the hands of Wang Jiayin and others.
The doors of every household in the city were closed, and Wang Jiayin and his people surrounded the doors of several wealthy households in the city.
"A few people go over and break the door open." Wang Jiayin looked at the closed door in front of him and ordered the people around him to break the door.
Several big men came up, carrying logs they found from nowhere, and came to the door of this house.
Boom!
The round log was hit by several men against the large wooden door in front of them, making a dull wooden sound, but the large wooden door only trembled and was not knocked open.
"Keep hitting." Wang Jiayin ordered while standing on the street outside the door.
Several men carried logs and bumped them against the large wooden door in front of them one after another.
Bang!
After being hit many times, the big wooden door finally couldn't withstand it and was knocked open by a log. Several servants who were standing behind the door were also knocked out as the wooden door was knocked open.
"Brothers, follow me and fight in!"
Huang Hu yelled and rushed in first with a knife in his hand. He caught up with the servant who was fleeing into the yard and raised his hand to strike with the knife.
Some of the rebels outside the door rushed into the yard with Huang Hu.
"Chief, the people from the Tiger Flag are here."
A rebel quickly ran to Wang Jiayin's side and brought him the news that someone from the Tiger Flag was coming.
Wang Jiayin, who was about to enter the yard, looked at the person and asked, "Where is he?"
"It was arranged at the county government office." The rebel replied.
Wang Jiayin turned to the person next to him and said: "Go and tell Huang Hu that this place is left to him. I have something to do and I will go back to the Yamen first."
After explaining, he took the messenger and left in a hurry.
There was such a big chaos in the city, and there were no pedestrians on the street for a long time. Only some ruffians dared to take advantage of the chaos in the city. Several shops close to the street were broken into and robbed of their contents. Families nearby were also implicated.
The county government office is located on the busiest street in the city. Almost all the wealthy families in the city live on this street or in adjacent streets.
Wang Jiayin took the people to the county government and left.
Before he reached the county government office, he saw several war horses outside the county government office. All of them had shiny hair and straight and thick limbs.
Having served as a frontier soldier, he knew the good horses on the grassland. The horses in front of him were rare even among the frontier soldiers. Only generals of rank five or above could ride such good horses.
Standing next to several war horses was a cavalryman wearing a half-cuirass, with two hand muskets on his waist. In the pocket on the horse's back was a riding musket that was shorter than a normal musket. There is a saber hanging on the other side.
Wang Jiayin's eyes showed envy.
Iron armor, fire guns, and war horses are all things he does not have, and they are also the things he is most in short supply at the moment. If his soldiers and horses can have these things, he will have the courage to confront the border troops in Yansui Town head-on.
"Chief, there are people inside." The rebel who delivered Wang Jiayin's letter reminded him in a low voice.
Wang Jiayin looked away from the war horses and the people with the tiger flag in front of her, and stepped into the county government office.
When approaching the lobby of the county government office, Wang Jiayin saw the people in the lobby and walked over quickly. He said with a big smile: "Haha, Brother Wu came at the right time. Brother, I have already captured Fugu County."
"Brother, I would like to congratulate Chief Wang first." The person standing in the lobby turned around, smiled and hugged Wang Jiayin, who was walking over.
Wang Jiayin greeted with a smile: "Brother Wu, please stop standing here. Let's go to the back office. I'll ask the people below to prepare a table of food. We won't come back until we get drunk today."
With that said, he put his arms around the other party and walked towards the back office.
The corpses outside the back office had long been taken away and disposed of, but there were still a lot of blood stains on the ground, which had now turned black and hardened, and a slight stench remained.
After entering the back office, Wang Jiayin sat on the main seat with a golden sword. He smiled and said to the people he brought: "Brother Wu will find a place to do it by himself. Now the entire county belongs to me."
Wu Hao walked to a seat relatively close to Wang Jiayin and sat down.
"Come here, find out all the good tea from that dog official and let me, brother Wu, have a taste." Wang Jiayin told the rebels beside him, then turned to look at Wu Hao and said, "Brother Wu is here, I think it is for my brother. Did you bring good news?"
A rebel who followed Wang Jiayin ran to boil water and make tea.
Wu Hao turned slightly sideways, looked at Wang Jiayin and said with a smile: "There is indeed good news, but I don't know if Leader Wang is willing to accept it?"
"What good news? Are your Tiger Flags going to support me with some armor? Just give me a few dozen sets of the kind of armor your people wear. I don't want too many fire guns. Five will be enough. If It would be better if there are war horses. You also know that my brother is very poor here. Although there are some mules and horses, there are no real good horses." Wang Jiayin moved closer to Wu Hao.
As a frontier soldier, he has seen too many problems with firearms. He values cold weapons like knives and guns more than firearms like muskets.
Wu Hao said with a smile: "The things that Chief Wang wants are indeed not much, but has Chief Wang ever thought about it, even if he has these things, can he deal with the soldiers and horses of Yansui Town?"
Wang Jiayin frowned when he heard this.
The rebels under him have dozens of sets of half-breastplates and several fire guns. Although it can greatly improve the strength of the rebels under his command, he has no confidence in facing the soldiers and horses of Yansui Town. There is no certainty at all, because there is no way they can be the military opponents of Yansui Town.
When Wu Hao saw that Wang Jiayin was silent, he continued: "I have a way so that the leader Wang will no longer have to worry about the soldiers and horses in Yansui Town."
"What can I do?" Wang Jiayin blurted out.
The pressure on him from Yansui Town is too great, and Fugu County is so close to Yansui Town, so he can retake Fugu County from his hands at any time.
Wu Hao said: "Chief Wang can join our Tiger Banner. As long as Chief Wang is willing, the position of Fugu County Magistrate will be yours, Chief Wang."
"County magistrate?" Wang Jiayin looked thoughtful and asked, "What should I do with the rebels under my command?"
Wu Hao said: "Those who are willing to stay, as long as they are of appropriate age and in good health, can become our heavy soldiers for the Tiger Flag, or they can return to their hometown to become peasant soldiers."
"So all my men will be dispersed?" Wang Jiayin frowned deeply, "What should we do in Fugu County? The troops from Yansui Town may come to Fugu County at any time."
Wu Hao said with a smile: "Don't worry, Chief Wang, the Tiger Character Banner's army is already ready to go and can enter Shaanxi and come to Fugu County at any time."
