Chapter seven hundred and ninety-two how to choose

It is recorded in the Shangqiu County Chronicle in another time and space.

In the Wanli period, when Lu Ganjian was the magistrate of Shangqiu County, he encountered the Renwu invasion, and then the whole city was ashes.

The year of Renwu is the tenth year of Wanli.

Lin Yanchao took office in Shangqiu, the Fucheng City, Guide Prefecture in December of the 10th year of Wanli.

Although Lin Yanchao is a time traveler, he has never read local chronicles such as Shangqiu County Chronicles in his previous life.

Therefore, he had no idea that Shangqiu would encounter this riot in history, which eventually led to the ashes of Shangqiu, the city of Guide Prefecture, and was "aborted county" for more than ten years. In history, refugees and hungry people broke through the city, which was only common in the Chongzhen year. In the early years of Wanli, the Ming Dynasty was in its prosperous era. How could such a thing happen? Lin Yanchao could never have imagined.

If Lin Yanchao had known this, even if he was beaten to death, he would not have come to Shangqiu to take office at this stall.

This day is the tenth year of Wanli and the last day of the Renwu year of Wanli.

The people in Shangqiu City set off lights and set off firecrackers.

Although there has been a flood this year, the city is home to large households. As long as Shangqiu City is not flooded, this disaster will be of no use to them.

The price of rice in the city has soared, with rice prices of five cents per dou and wheat of three cents per dou.

You should know that at that time, one liang of rice and one liang of wheat were only seven cents of rice.

With such huge profits, although Su Yan repeatedly ordered the officials under the law to not easily ingrench food for disaster relief, many clerks still took risks.

Officials are fat, and hungry people outside the city cannot have enough food, but the wealthy people in the city do not have this concern. Not only does the master eat well, but even hundreds and thousands of servants below are all free of food and clothing.

The rich family smells of wine and meat, and there are bones that are frozen to death on the road.

Originally, the government office sealed the government office, but the local office sealed it on the 20th day of the 11th lunar month, but Guide Mansion was delayed until the 26th day of the 11th lunar month.

At this time, the officials from the sixth house in the yamen should have been allowed to go home for the New Year, but under Su Yan's strict rule, many officials still stayed on duty.

The prefect, the magistrate, and the magistrate were all foreign officials, and they were in the government office for food, accommodation and holidays, so it didn't matter. However, the officials in the government office were all locals, hoping to go home early, but on this day, the prefect still refused to let anyone go, so the officials of the sixth house secretly greeted all the prefects and 18 generations of ancestors.

However, Lin Yanchao admired Su Yan's move.

You should know that after the yamen seal, most officials will go on holidays and go home for the New Year, so they cannot supervise the local area.

Therefore, there are old customs, seals from the government, and poor people can't help but steal small things.

If someone is robbed, as long as it is not a major property, the government will not pursue it on the day of sealing.

This is not only in the local area, but also in the capital under the feet of the emperor. When the yamen sealed, shameless people were in groups of three or five, disturbing the streets and looting and beating the people.

So this is also the time when public security cases occur frequently.

Under Su Yan's strict rule, at least in the city was still fine. Therefore, Lin Yanchao was drinking tea with peace of mind in the lobby of the government office.

Although he and Su Yan were not in harmony, everyone was still smiling.

Lin Yanchao is not that tough person. After all, he is the prefect, so it is not wise to do anything to him.

Lin Yanchao asked his master Qiu Mingshan to establish a relationship with the prefect and discuss major issues.

In the officialdom, it is common for two officials to not be able to pee a trap. If you discuss it in person, you will often start arguing after a few words, and you may have to confiscate the guys and fight. Therefore, the masters play a role, which is called "The second masters talk about the masters on their behalf."

So in the government office, Lin Yanchao and the prefect don’t talk much, but there is no gap between them in government affairs, so they do everything they should do.

Although Qiu Mingshan is a villain, he is a local snake after all, and Sun Chengzong is not good at contributing to the relationship. Therefore, thanks to the two masters' interactions, the relationship between Lin Yanchao and Su Yan did not continue to deteriorate.

The official document was signed in Su Yan's place and then handed over to Lin Yanchao for signature. The two of them could get things done without saying a word throughout the process.

This morning.

The officials in the government office were not interested in everything, and they were counting on when Su Yan would be kind enough to let the officials go home for the New Year.

But at this moment, a military general strode to the court to correct the official documents after the case was corrected, saying, "The last general, Yu Dazhong, the general of Guide Camp, has met the Lord of the State Council, and I don't know what to call me?"

Lin Yanchao looked at Yu Dazhong, the general of Guide Mansion.

But seeing this general Zi Tang's face, wearing a water-grinding lock helmet and lock armor,

Lin Yanchao was used to seeing the three major camp soldiers who were strong outside the outside world in the capital, but he saw that the general was majestic and agreed with Lin Yanchao's image as a powerful general.

Su Yan said, "The magistrate of Yucheng reported that there were bandits and bandits in the territory, and they were even approaching the county town. He was afraid that there were few soldiers in Yucheng City that could not resist, so he sought help. Our mansion wanted to order you to lead troops to drive away the bandits."

Yu Dazhong clasped his fists and said, "You reported to the Mansion, it's the end of the year, and the soldiers are unwilling to fight, not to mention that the army has already owed wages within half a year. At this time, the army may be dissatisfied with the morale."

"If the bandits attacked the city, would the officers and soldiers in the camp say they were unwilling to fight? How do you manage the camp on weekdays?" Su Yan asked.

Yu Dazhong bowed his head and said, "Mr. Futai is not unwilling to go. How many bandits in Yucheng are distributed? The generals do not know anything about it. It is better to send a detailed investigation before sending troops. If Futai is worried about the safety of Yucheng, according to Futai, Yucheng seems that although Yucheng is small, if a small group of bandits come, it is no problem to defend the city."

Listening to Yu Dazhong's words, Lin Yanchao also felt that it made sense. The enemy's situation was unclear and leaving the city to fight without authorization is a taboo in military strategists, unless you have an absolute chance of winning.

Su Yan could not hear anyone's advice and sneered: "General Yu, are you afraid to fight? The last time when the Lord Bing Beidao came, you boasted about how brave your two hundred clans were, and my mansion was also honored, but now only a few thieves are so scared that you dare not leave the city."

When Yu Dazhong heard this, he looked ashamed and angry and said, "Reporting to Futai, Mo General is not afraid of death, but is afraid that Mo General will not be in Futai, and the Futai will make any mistakes. Since this is the case, I beg the Lord Futai to guard the city, and Mo General will lead his servants out of the city to kill the thieves."

Su Yan nodded and said, "This mansion will know that before the thief's power is intensified, General Yu Gan will immediately wipe out the thief."

Lin Yanchao did not object after hearing this. As soon as he and Su Yan were disagreeing, he would not be beneficial to oppose him at this time.

Secondly, Lin Yanchao also "understood the enemy" and believed that the bandits would not be too serious. After all, the chance of this is too low.

In fact, in the 32nd year of Jiajing, Shi Shangzhao, a native of Zhecheng in Guide, led thousands of people to destroy the Guide Mansion City, and then destroyed more than 20 prefectures, prefectures, and county towns, causing the largest peasant uprising in Henan during the Jiajing period.

But no one could have imagined this situation at present. In the tenth year of Wanli in history, the invasion that captured Guide Prefecture came as scheduled.

After Yu Dazhong left, the officers and soldiers led by him were ambushed by the bandits.

This bandit is not a hungry man, but a few of the most famous horses from Shandong.

They were desperate in Shandong, and this time they took advantage of the bottom of the Yellow River, so they went south to Henan to work a big deal.

At present, hungry people were everywhere in Henan. After several Shandong Xiangma passed through, hungry people gathered to destroy Yu County. Then, they forced the Yu County Magistrate to write a letter and lured Guide Prefecture to send troops to rescue him.

As a result, the reinforcements led by Yu Dazhong were ambushed by the horses on the way and the official army was defeated.

Then the thief brought nearly ten thousand people to Guide City.

At noon, the officials in the yamen finally agreed to go home for the New Year.

Even Lin Yanchao was unintentionally waiting in the government office. At this moment, he saw several officials rushing into the government office.

Lin Yanchao didn't care. When he went to the back hall, he saw Qiu Mingshan rushing forward, looking at no one on the left and right, and said anxiously: "Dongweng, let me talk with you one step."

Lin Yanchao nodded and walked with him to a hidden place. At this time, Qiu Mingshan said, "The big thing in Dongweng is wrong, and Yucheng County is destroyed by traitors."

Lin Yanchao was surprised and asked, "What? How did you learn about this news? Didn't the Duke send General Yu Shen to quell the rebellion?"

Qiu Mingshan said in a panic: "I don't know this. I heard that General Yu's officers and soldiers were defeated for some reason. Now the rioters are rushing to the city, and there are many thieves."

Lin Yanchao couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "No, then I will report to the mansion immediately and let him be prepared early."

Qiu Mingshan grabbed Lin Yanchao and shook his head and said, "It's too late for Dongweng."

"How come it's too late?"

Qiu Mingshan said: "The most elite troops in the mansion were taken away by Yu Dazhong. At present, there are only guards in the mansion that cannot fight. It is also time for holidays. If the bandits come to kill, there will be no panic. What's more, the Lord of the Mansion has always ruled with harsh laws, and the mansion has long been resentful. If the rioters come to the mansion, the victims who are not allowed to enter the city outside the city will be resentful and will join the bandits instead. How can they stop it?"

"So I'm so humble to ask Dongweng for help. When the news was still unclear, I quickly left the city. It would be too late if it was too late."

Lin Yanchao said angrily: "What are you saying? This minister is the local official of our government. If he leaves his post without hesitation at this time and abandons the people in the city, he will not say that his future will be destroyed, and he will be imprisoned."

Qiu Mingshan smiled and said, "Dongweng, the official seal official of our mansion is the magistrate. If he abandons the city and flees, he will definitely be dead. But Dongweng is a magistrate and is a second-level official, so he will not be responsible. Even if the court pursues the matter later, the crime will be more minor. Dongweng can be said that he was ordered to inspect outside, and the river worker or the folk customs, and he will make up any reason. If Master Shen Ge talks for Dongwen on the temple, there will be no serious crime."

"What's more, if the city is broken, the Lord of the Mansion will either die or be imprisoned. Dongweng, go and invite reinforcements to return to the mansion, quell the bandits and chaos, and clean up the mess. At that time, it will not be a crime, but will be a meritorious. In this way, our official, Dongweng, you will follow the lead. We will say whatever we want and eradicate the political enemy of the Mansion will do it. Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?"

After a few words from Qiu Mingshan, Lin Yanchao couldn't help but say, "No, this is a escaping at the last battle, and he is guilty of his duties, and he is guilty of the people of our province."

Qiu Mingshan knelt down after hearing this and said in tears: "When has it been? If the city is broken, it will be burned. Not only the people in the city, but also the officials will be the same. Dong Weng should not think about himself, but also think about his family!"

Lin Yanchao couldn't help but feel nervous when he heard this. How should he choose?
