Chapter 157 Mutiny? Only Lin Aiqing can solve it!

Sure enough, in less than a stick of incense, someone came and told Lin Beifan to go to the imperial study.

When Lin Beifan arrived, the other court officials had already arrived. With a serious expression on his face, he looked at the Empress sitting in front of the desk.

At this time, I didn’t care about bowing to salute anymore, and stood obediently behind all the officials.

The empress glanced at the crowd and found that they were all there. She said angrily, “Just 800 miles away, there was a mutiny in Tangzhou! Several stabbing soldiers beheaded the general and the general, and led an army of 30,000 into the In the mountains and plains, fallen grasses are bandits, and they are currently facing off against the imperial soldiers and horses, the situation is very serious!”

All the officials were in an uproar!

There has been a mutiny, and the situation is indeed very serious!

“Your Majesty, what is the reason?” An old minister raised his hands and asked.

“What is the reason, you can see for yourself!”

The empress threw down the eight hundred li urgent document and let all the officials circulate it.

The local generals and partial generals embezzled the soldiers’ salaries for a long time, causing the soldiers to sweat and sweat, and they couldn’t get the treatment they deserved. Even eating was a problem.

In addition, these generals beat or scolded the soldiers under their command, and the two sides had long-standing grievances.

The final trigger was a general who blatantly molested the soldier’s wife.

The soldiers who had been under pressure for a long time finally couldn’t bear it anymore and provoked a mutiny!

A few powerful soldiers took the lead to become these generals, and then led other soldiers to rebel!

The empress stood up against the case, and said with gritted teeth: “They are so courageous, they dare to greedy the imperial court’s military pay! They also insulted the soldiers at will and molested the soldiers’ wives! How can they look like an imperial order? Now it’s all right, the mutiny has changed, and all the troubles are gone. 07 Throwing it to me is really unreasonable! Unreasonable!”

“Your Majesty, please calm down!” All the officials said in unison.

“How do you let me calm my anger?” The empress said angrily: “Now the political situation in the court is unstable, there are various vassals outside the court spying on the court, and border countries are ready to move! But at this time, they are still adding to the chaos? What if It’s not that they are dead, I really want to pull them out and kill them again!”

All the officials remained silent.

At this moment, the Empress turned her head to look at the Minister of the Ministry of War, and said angrily, “Li Kaiguang, what should you do?”

Li Kaiguang, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, was stunned, and quickly stood up: “Your Majesty…”

The empress shouted loudly: “As the minister of the Ministry of War, you are in charge of military affairs throughout the country, and are responsible for supervising generals and military officers everywhere! However, you don’t even know about Tangzhou’s general soldiers embezzling military salaries and mistreating soldiers! Tell me, are you responsible? Is there an unshirkable responsibility? Tell me, what should you do?”

Minister of the Ministry of War felt extremely wronged!

This matter was obviously not done by him, but he was the one to bear the blame!

Now he also wants to pull out that group of generals and kill them again!

Without hesitation, he wondered whether he had committed the Tai Sui recently and kept encountering such weird and unlucky things?

He did an ordinary training on the water, but he encountered a group of martial arts masters, and the training failed!

Now I didn’t do anything, but disaster came!

“I’m guilty!” Li Kaiguang, Minister of the Ministry of War, immediately bowed his head and admitted his mistake.

The empress is right, although he did not do this, but as Minister of the Ministry of War, he bears the unshirkable responsibility!

“Your crime, remember for now! The most important thing now is to solve the Tangzhou mutiny. We must cut through the mess quickly, otherwise the longer the time drags on, the worse it will be for us Great Wu!” The empress said calmly.

“Your Majesty’s words are absolutely true!” All the officials spoke in unison.

“The question now is, how to deal with this matter, and who will deal with it?”

All the officials expressed their opinions, and the final consensus was to persuade them to surrender. If they couldn’t be persuaded, they could only suppress it by force. The mutiny must be resolved quickly.

“Then who to send?” the Empress asked again.

All the officials looked at each other in blank dismay. This matter is very difficult, and it is not a good job.

If they don’t solve it well, it may affect their careers.

The Minister of the Ministry of Industry stood up and said, “Your Majesty, I wish to make atonement!”

He knew that at this moment, even if he didn’t want to stand up, he had to stand up!

“But, you have messed up so many things, I can’t trust you!” the empress sarcastically said.

Li Kaiguang’s face was full of aggrieved.

The empress cast her eyes on Lin Beifan who was fishing behind Baiguan: “Lin Aiqing, I will leave this matter to you!”

Lin Beifan was stunned: “Your Majesty, did you find the wrong person? I can’t do it!”

The Empress smiled and said: “Ai Qing, I didn’t find the wrong person! The reason why I chose you is because you have always been quick-witted and can solve many difficult problems! And you are eloquent and eloquent, so you can negotiate The personnel are the most suitable! Take out your three-inch tongue and persuade them to surrender!”

Lin Beifan blinked: “Your Majesty, don’t you think highly of me?”

“Not at all!” The empress shook her head and said, “You went to Leiyun Temple before, and you abducted an old monk with a Buddhist spirit to your home! Later, you met two masters, the sword fairy and the sword saint , It’s you fighting the lotus again and becoming their confidant! Look, you can convince even the grand master, but you can’t convince a group of warriors?”

Lin Beifan was a little panicked: “But, what if I can’t be persuaded? I don’t know how to fight!”

The Empress sneered inwardly.

Pretend to me again!

The previous agrarian revolution theory, the three major methods of guerrilla warfare, mobile warfare, and mine warfare, the mass line of encircling the city from the countryside, and other strategic methods and ideas, even I have benefited a lot from listening to them!

Your level of military art can be called a master of military strategy!

If even you don’t know how to fight, no one in the world will!

“Lin Aiqing, don’t refuse! I believe that you are the most suitable among the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, and there is absolutely no second choice! If this matter is resolved smoothly, I will definitely reward you a lot!” The empress promised loudly.

“Your Majesty’s words are very true. This matter must be sacrificed to the wine!”

“Jijiu is eloquent and resourceful. It is most appropriate for him to be in charge of this matter!”

“As soon as the sacrificial wine comes out, it will definitely be a success!”

……

All the officials spoke one after another, strongly recommending it!

Lin Beifan was trembling with anger, these old bastards are playing tricks again!

Look back and find an opportunity to copy your house!

In desperation, Lin Beifan had no choice but to accept the order: “I obey the order!”

That night, after dinner, Lin Beifan set off immediately, and hurried on the road overnight.

Accompanying them were Mo Rushuang and the officials sent by the imperial court to protect Lin Beifan.

The little princess also followed secretly, saying that he wanted to protect Lin Beifan, but in fact he just wanted to join in the fun.

After two nights and one day of traveling, I finally arrived in Tangzhou in the middle of the night of the second day.

Mr. Liu, the local magistrate, greeted Lin Beifan in person: “I have seen Mr. Jijiu, I have seen Princess Yunying! The officials have prepared meals to clean up the dust for everyone!”

“We’ll talk about the clean-up later. How is the situation now?” Lin Beifan asked straight to the point.

Liu Zhifu smiled wryly and said: “The situation is still very tense! At present, the two sides are confronting each other with the Panshan River as the boundary! As long as we cross the boundary, they will not attack indiscriminately, and many officials in the government have been injured!”

“Also, there was a battle last night! Due to lack of food, the rebels went down the mountain to snatch food and grass with our soldiers and horses! Fortunately, the casualties were not heavy, otherwise this officer would really have a hard time ending!”

< p>
Lin Beifan nodded.

“I don’t know how the court plans to resolve this matter?” Prefect Liu asked cautiously.

“The main thing is to persuade them to surrender. If it doesn’t work, we can only send troops to suppress it! All problems must be resolved within a week! Otherwise, this situation will be exploited by those who want to, and the consequences will be disastrous!” Lin Beifan said.

Liu Zhifu nodded with a serious expression.

Then, Lin Beifan followed Liu Zhifu to the scene to have a look.

It was late at night, and most of the rebels were already asleep. The forest on the mountain looked dark and extremely quiet.

However, a few pairs of cautious eyes could still be seen among the pitch-black vegetation.

“Go back and rest first, and make plans tomorrow!” Lin Beifan turned and went back.

At this time, Lin Beifan’s arrival had already alarmed the rebels on the mountain.

A person ran up the mountain in a panic and woke up a sleeping person: “Boss, a new official has come down the mountain, he should be sent by the imperial court!”

This so-called boss is a young man, tall and mighty, with strong limbs, and that arm is as thick as someone else’s thigh. The skin is dark, and when the eyes are opened, the eyes are bright and very energetic.

“Who is this person and what does he look like?”

“I can’t recognize him, but he looks very young, less than 20 years old, with red lips and white teeth! However, the other party is wearing a crimson official uniform, and looks at least a fourth-rank official! It’s not easy to be a fourth-rank official at such a young age Ah!”

As he spoke, his tone was full of envy.

“The fourth-rank official who is less than 20 years old seems to be Lin Beifan, the new champion who has already served as a sacrificial wine!” The young man called the boss nodded thoughtfully.

“The new champion Lin Beifan?”

“I heard that he is very talented, and he is also very favored and trusted by the empress, so he has been promoted to 4 levels in a few months! He has also received various rewards, and the family can’t fit it!”

“However, I heard that he is still a big corrupt official, and he has corrupted millions of taels within a few months of taking office!”

“Another dog officer, I really want to kill him!”

“Dog officials will die!”

……

Everyone was very excited.

They hate corrupt officials the most!

If it wasn’t for those corrupt officials who took away their military pay, they wouldn’t have fallen into such a situation!

Now a bigger corrupt official has come, and they are so angry that they want to use the knife!

“Boss, what shall we do next?”

“Should we continue to confront the imperial court, or should we go to the back of the mountain and become a bandit? According to my suggestion, just rebel directly. With our ability, we can go anywhere without worrying about food!”

“It’s better to seek refuge with other princes! I heard that the king of Jiangnan has a lot of money and is currently recruiting soldiers. It seems that he is going to do something big. We can follow him to eat and drink!”

“The king of Jibei is also good! I heard that he is a corporal and treats everyone very well. He is a good prince!”

“Boss, tell me, we will all listen to you!”

……

Everyone looked at the young man in front of them anxiously, waiting for his decision.

From this we can see how prestigious this young man is.

The young man waved his hand: “Brothers, stay safe and don’t be impatient! Let’s see the court’s attitude tomorrow. Anyway, I am a big bull, and I will definitely make you wronged!”

Everyone nodded.
