The second Thousand three hundred thirty-eight of the battle for the capital (twenty-seven)
Xia Shuji glanced at Zhang Xinxia, Xu San said carefully: "The situation in the city is complicated. So many people from the militia enter the city, which will only make the situation even more complicated... In this way, tomorrow morning, food and supplies will be sent out of the city... The militia will rest outside the city, waiting for orders!"
"…The officials obey the order!"
After Xia Shuji left, Zhang Xinxia snorted, "... Our brothers were born and died for His Majesty, but Hangzhou City was right in front of us. This woman actually let our brothers sleep in the open... We still have more than a thousand people, so we will endure it tonight?"
Xu San said calmly, "Brother may have blamed Mrs. Zhenyi for wrongly."
"oh?"
"Brother, just imagine, we were responsible for Xiushui according to Your Majesty's secret order, right?"
"Yes, so what?"
"Why should your Majesty use our mere militia group to control the troops in the world?"
"This... what is a mere militia, third brother, don't underestimate yourself... We are the ministers of the dragon when His Majesty dived into the residence. Our name was given to him by His Majesty?!"
"Brother, that's not what he said... Can we compare with the guards of the Northern Expedition Army? Even Lin Wei, the commander of each prefecture, has a much stronger combat power than us... Brother, don't believe it, how is Liu Yuan's troops better than us?"
Speaking of Liu Yuan, Zhang Xinxia fell silent.
Xu San continued: "Although you can't guess your Majesty's thoughts, one thing is certain...that is, the current changes must be different from the past. What Your Majesty wants is not killing people, otherwise, you can just adjust the army to quell the rebellion!"
Zhang Xinxia frowned and said, "But Your Majesty sent someone to send an order to come to Hangzhou to protect the Wu Prince's Mansion and the Mo family... If you can't enter the city, how can you protect it?"
Xu San thought for a while and said, "It's right... this is really difficult to deal with!"
The two looked at each other. After a while, Xu San suddenly said, "Mrs. Zhenyi just told the militia that the militia could not enter the city... and did not say that we could not enter the city!"
Zhang Xinxia was stunned, "What do you mean by this?"
"Select dozens of old militia leaders and follow you and I to the city... In this way, we can not only obey the king's orders, but also deal with the orders of Mrs. Zhenyi... After all, we are also following the orders, and Mrs. Zhenyi cannot blame us!"
Zhang Xinxia was happy and then worried, "But the city gate is closed, how can I enter the city?"
Xu San smiled and said, "Before Mrs. Zhenyi came, I had sent someone to reconnaissance... The person guarding the city gate was the old acquaintance we had when we entered the city, and the friendship we had created... Although we could not let the militia enter the city, one or twenty people could still be harmonious."
Zhang Xinxia thought for a while and said, "Outside the city...you and I have entered the city, what should I do if the militia group?"
This made Xu San stunned, and then said, "How about this, I will take people into the city, and my brother will manage the militia in the urban management?"
"No!" Zhang Xinxia flatly refused, "I am the garrison of the militia, you are just a county magistrate... It's not your turn to do this!"
Xu San immediately retorted: "Brother, you and my brother have been in custody for many years... You have been guarding, but I, Xu San, are just a county magistrate, and have broken an arm... Why, can't I let some credit for my younger brother? Besides, the weather outside the city is cold, so I can't let my younger brother go to the city to have a hot meal!"
Zhang Xinxia was silent for a while and shook his head firmly, "No... If you change to something else, your brother will let you go, but today's matter cannot be let go... You also said that you have broken your arm... Third brother, you can't let you throw another arm..."
"Brother, you can't be so unreasonable..."
"This matter is decided. I will bring people into the city and you will manage the militia outside the city!"
"Can……!"
"This is an order!" Zhang Xinxia shouted softly, "What is the identity of Mo's mother and son? You and I know it clearly. If there is an accident, the consequences will be unimaginable... You can't do this with one arm!"
Xu San could only respond, "Then...well, brother, please take care of yourself!"
Zhang Xinxia grinned, "Don't worry, since Mrs. Zhenyi ordered the militia to prevent the militia from entering the city, there were naturally deployments, and there were tens of thousands of soldiers in the city..."
Speaking of this, Zhang Xinxia's smile froze and said to Xu San, "Third brother, I beg you something... If so... you have to help your brother raise your nephew to adulthood!"
Xu San's eyes heated up and he looked at Zhang Xinxia deeply, "...Okay! I agree!"
Zhang Xinxia let out a sigh and looked at the city gate that was faintly visible in the dark, "Fortunately, His Majesty was the one who presided over justice in the Xiushui Retrograde case, otherwise, you and I would have died long ago... As long as His Majesty can use us, we have to fight to the death... Third, if something really happens in the city, you have to remember that even if you are the only one left in the end, you will have to die at the gate of the King of Wu's Mansion!"
"Brother, I... wrote it down!"
....
In front of the gate of the King of Wu’s Mansion.
When Xia Shuji came back, she happened to run into Yang Tingshu, the prefect of Hangzhou who had been waiting for a long time.
After a few simple sentences, I went to the former General's Mansion's Office's Council Hall in the front courtyard of the royal palace.
"I dare to ask Mrs. Zhenyi... After hearing the news, Zhang Xinxia and others led the Xiushui militia to request an entry into the city... Xiaguan was worried that the militia would cause an unknown chaos in the militia... So, Xiaguan wanted to have a good time with Mrs. Zhenyi first and listen to what you meant by Madam!"
Xia Shuji glanced at Yang Tingshu, "Where is the mansion soldier that Mrs. Yang asked him to mobilize?"
Yang Tingshu hurriedly replied, "At that time, the officials have sent someone to order the mobilization of the government troops. However, the government troops are in the city. The garrison outside the city is far away, so it takes time to mobilize... According to the nearest garrison, the fastest one must be around Yin hour before they can reach the surrounding area of the palace... At that time, the officials will personally deploy defense and patrol matters... Please rest assured Mrs. Zhenyi!"
Originally, the closest place of the mansion was the martial arts field at Qiantangmen, but after the two times the mansions participated in the chaos, the martial arts field was abolished. Now the nearest place of the mansion is the former General Mansion north of Houchaomen.
Yang Tingshu did not lie, and sent someone to send orders to dispatch troops and gather troops to come. It really took a lot of time.
Xia Shuji said in a deep voice: "It's halfway through Xu, and it's nearly four hours to reach Yin... Do you know, if something happens in these four hours, what will happen?!"
Yang Tingshu couldn't answer, so he could only say, "Why... the lower officials transferred the government yamen runners to the surrounding area of the royal palace to support him?"
"How many people can there be?"
"The service staff is more than thirty, the constable is more than twenty... about sixty or seventy people!"
Xia Shuji hesitated for a moment, "Okay, it's better to prepare for the future than to make an irregular adjustment... Lord Yang will do it quickly!"
"Okay, okay..." Yang Tingshu responded and asked, "That matter to the militia outside the city..."
"Mrs. My wife has been placed in the city and the militia will not enter the city for the time being, and she will only wait outside the city... Lord Yang, tomorrow morning, I have to trouble the adults to arrange for people to send some food and supplies to the city."
"Okay, okay... the matter is in charge... Then the official said goodbye?"
"Adult message delivery!"
