Taizhou city defense originally had 2,000 people, half of whom were assigned to garrison along the coast, and the remaining half were left to guard the city. They cannot be described as "old soldiers", but "eating and waiting to die" is more appropriate.
How can a soldier who is so thin and languid, so fat and full of fat and loses his majesty win a battle?
The soldiers are lazy and have no other choice but one word: practice!
"Starting from today, there will be twenty laps each in the morning, noon and evening at the training ground. Don't eat until you finish. If you can't stand it, get out as soon as possible to avoid wasting rice!"
"Also, this is Military Commander Chen Rencai. You may not respect me, but you must respect him. As for why, the biggest reason I can think of is that his family is very rich. If you want to eat meat, , we must first make him happy.”
"I dare to kill that Ma Jiuye in the street today, and tomorrow I will lead the army to destroy his Majiazhuang. With the sword and gun in hand, I want to protect my family and the country, and eliminate harm for the people. If you don't have the courage, go to the city gate. Look at Ma Jiu’s hanging corpse!”
"Brothers from Taizhou City, Mr. Chen didn't bring any greeting gifts today. He bought ten fat pigs with his own money. Is there anyone in the army who knows how to kill pigs?"
"I know how to do it! My ancestors are pig killers!"
"Okay, when the fat pig arrives, let's boil water to sharpen the knife and cook a meat meal first!"
"Hurrah!"
A soldier is in a raging state, and a general is in a raging nest.
Today Jiang Yuntian killed Ma Jiu in the street. His domineering and calming effect was enough to boost the morale of the army.
Those who can become soldiers are not cowards. What they need is a general who can give them strength. Jiang Yuntian happens to have this kind of personality charm.
night.
late at night.
The night without falling snow was still bitingly cold.
Song Che lit a candle, and Song Che sat on the small couch and wrote some military regulations and recruitment matters.
No matter how weak the army is, it is still a sword. If you want to use it to kill people, you must sharpen it.
"gentlemen!"
Coco suddenly poked his head in from outside the tent, with the word "surprise" written unabashedly on his face.
"What's the matter?"
"Who do you think is here?" Ke Ke gave it up first.
Song Che smiled and shook his head, "Let her come in."
Coco retracted her head, but after a while, a man in black robe walked into the camp. She took off her hat, revealing her beautiful face that could never be admired.
"There is tea on the stove, and it is very warm. You can decide for yourself." Song Che said softly.
Ning Yehong walked to the stove and sat down, turning the backs of her hands to warm them. After a moment of silence, she said:
"I opened an inn opposite the Salt Store to better monitor the Ma family. The reason why I pretended to be like that was to attract guests from the Ma family. If you want to obtain information, you must first establish a good relationship with them."
Song Che said softly "Hmm".
silence,
In the silence, the teapot hummed.
Ning Yehong first made a cup and gave it to Song Che, taking the opportunity to peek at the writing.
Song Che turned sideways and folded the book so that she could not read it, "Military aircraft are important matters, and no one else can watch them."
"Tch... I don't care about a dog that protects its food."
She sat back by the stove again, poured herself a cup of hot tea, held it in her hand and sipped it while saying: "The mission in Chuzhou is over, I am no longer Mrs. Chu."
Song Che said softly "Hmm".
She added: "I have no special feelings for Chu Shike, and nothing has ever happened to me. It's all for the mission, including my words and deeds at the inn today."
"Um."
"You're not angry with me or prejudiced against me, are you?"
"Um."
"You are quite generous."
"Um."
"It seems stingy at the moment."
"Um."
"You pig head!"
"Uh-huh?"
Song Che raised his head, "Damn it, this little bitch."
"Hehehe..." Ning Yehong smiled from ear to ear, "I didn't expect you to be so smart and fall into my trap. I'm laughing to death. I'm laughing to death."
Song Che's lips twitched and he sighed: "Let's get down to business."
"Then let me tell you about the Ma family first..."
The Ma family cannot be regarded as a pure business family, but a large landowner in Taizhou.
Five miles west of Taizhou City, there is "Majiazhuang". It has more than 1,000 households for generations, a population of nearly 10,000, and more than 2,000 villagers who are capable of recruiting and fighting, which is more than the Taizhou city defense army;
In addition to ordinary farming, the Ma family is mainly engaged in the seafood and dry goods business. Compared with the big businessmen, the Ma family is not rich, but the family is powerful and very united. It is for this reason that they dare not take the state government seriously.
After the fall of the Yang family, it was the Ma family who took over the three salt farms under his command in Dafeng County, Chuzhou. From then on, the Ma family started the salt selling business.
In addition to Taizhou City, Ma's Salt Company has branches in every county. They colluded with Japanese pirates to provide a stable supply of salt, and relied on their own power to monopolize the salt price in Taizhou.
Song Che once remembered that the merchant who introduced the Japanese pirates into the city was also named Ma, and he was also engaged in the seafood business. He used kelp to wrap Japanese knives... Various signs proved that the Ma family was the "snakehead" who colluded with the Japanese pirates.
There are three people in charge of the Ma family. The eldest, Ma You, is the owner of the village and is in charge of the affairs of the village. The second, the second, is the leader of the "Majia Gang" and manages all the villagers. The third, Ma Chun, is in charge of the salt shop and seafood business;
These three are the biological sons of Ma Taigong, Ma Qu, and the remaining Ma Si to Ma Thirteen are all members of the Ma family tree and close relatives.
A united clan and clan who get together to do bad things is no different from bandits, but it is more difficult than suppressing bandits.
"Nowadays, soldiers and horses everywhere are busy guarding customs. Who has the energy to deal with these bullies? Alas..."
Ning Yehong sighed.
Even if they have the energy, the officials will choose to turn a blind eye to this type of clan. After all, going to war will cost more people and money than accommodating them.
"If they don't collude with the Japanese pirates, they can still allow them to multiply and thrive. Selling the country is unforgivable. The Ma family must disappear in Taizhou."
Song Che fell into deep thought.
If you want to remove this huge cancer, you must cut through the knot quickly and wait for a chance variable.
Where does the opportunity come from?
Where do the variables come from?
Ning Yehong longed and looked forward to Song Che, without a trace of doubt in her eyes.
After a long time, the tea cooled down, but Song Che still said nothing.
She poured a cup of hot tea instead of the cup of herbal tea and sighed: "I wish I could help you, but there is really nothing I can do about using my brain."
"Some favors don't necessarily require using your brain to do."
Song Che's eyes were hot, and Ning Yehong also noticed the heat. She subconsciously wanted to step back, but Song Che grabbed her hand first, pulled her gently, and hugged her into his arms.
"You're here again..."
With her ability, there were ten thousand ways to break free, but she seemed weak and powerless.
Song Che smiled and said, "You may not believe it, but when a lonely man is comforted, his brain can become a thousand times brighter."
Ning Yehong muttered: "If you're lustful, you're lustful. You say it so grandly..."
"Hehehe..." Song Che laughed.
"Hehehe..." She also laughed.
"why are you laughing?"
"I'm laughing and you're laughing. If you laugh, it means you've figured out a way."
There is a saying that once a person becomes happy, he will secrete 'dopamine', which can make the brain spin faster and generate countless thoughts.
Of course, there are also physiological reactions caused by hormonal collisions.
Because she was too beautiful, Song Che had a plan in mind.
