第十三节临高人的对策
“赏钱好说。龙腾小说网ltxs520.com”吴县令一脸苦笑，比起送去的五十两银子，这三十石米还真算不了什么，“赞府辛苦了。”
“事关阖城安危，安敢言辛苦。只是那李千户拿捏的很，卑职说尽了好话，才肯拨三十人。那些炮药铅子，不用也就罢了，若用了还得双倍还他。”吴亚年近四十，是个胖子，保养的很好，看起来比县令年轻多了。他是杂佐出身，没科甲正途的人那么有想法，日子倒过得逍遥自在。
“这也怪不得他，”吴令低着头，叹气道，“卫所之事，朝廷上下尽人皆知。他那里那有可用之兵？就算有，也不过些老弱病残，逃不脱的人罢了。”
“明府说的是。”吴亚点头道，正说着话，门子来禀，县里的主簿、训导都来了，典史正带人巡逻，一时来不了，教谕则去请士绅们了。明代绅权很重，地方绅士往往能干涉地方行政，所以县内每有大事，请士绅们来商议总是不错的。
所谓士绅，是个复杂的阶层，上起朝廷大臣，封疆大吏，下及官宦家属、豪强地主，乃及因丁忧、革职、致仕等各种缘故返回原籍的官员；身有科名而未出仕的举人进士。都可以包括在内。他们因种种关系，和省级封疆大吏及朝廷有相当密切的联系，更有手眼通天直达皇宫内廷的。州县衙门的七品八品九品官儿们，尽可在平民百姓跟前充老爷，但在这些乡绅面前就要大打折扣。
临高因为是边鄙小县，士绅拢共也没几个，有的地方偏远，海盗波及不到的也就不来了。有的自设村寨招募乡勇的，此时要坐镇守御，自然也不便来。也就是在县城里和周边几个都图的绅士，他们利益相关，自然要来。
眼见人都来得差不多了，吴明晋低声问身边的师爷：“刘先生还没到吗？”
“回老爷，冯教谕亲自去接了，一会就到。”
他点点头，把这花厅里的士绅们都看了一遍。虽花厅里，已然坐了十多个人，有的趾高气扬，有的唯唯诺诺，也有的故作深沉，拈须不语。
“诸位父老，”吴明晋没有客套，直接把谈话转入正题，“眼下的局面：海贼势大盘踞博铺不去。巨舶快船满港，明日定会溯河而上一路纵掠，局面危矣！吴赞府今日冒死出城求援，明日可到卫所兵丁三十，然而卫所之兵，不过借以壮势，断不可倚靠！”
这番话说得声色俱厉，听得人不免都骚动起来。吴亚知道这不过是常见的敲山震虎而已，把局势夸大到十二万分的危险，目的无非就是勒逼这些士绅们献粮捐银。他身为这县里的老县丞，深知如今朝廷上下财政败坏到极点。临高去年又遭了台风洪水，秋粮损失大半，但是朝廷征收的三饷却不免，县里已经很窘迫了，连民壮和弓手的粮饷都欠了好几个月。如今又要防着海贼攻城，请援兵，募民壮，都得花钱。
眼看这群人都惴惴不安，吴大令才缓缓道：“本官承乏来此，守土有责。城存与存，城亡与亡。各位或世受国恩，或为本城绅衿，或为科甲正途，守城之事，责无旁贷。请各与本官同心协力，共守此城，打退海贼进攻，保全城官绅百姓平安无事。不知各位有主张？”
众人忙起身道：“原惟大人马首！”
吴明晋见气氛不错，这才将他的打算说了出来：“本县虽然是小城，围长也有六百余丈，现在城中兵丁民壮不过一百余人，要分守三门，城内又涌进了许多百姓，难保没有海贼的内应，仅靠皂隶弹压，恐怕力不从心。我欲添募民壮二百人，协力守城。”
一位绅士说：“明府如此忠心，实是全城官绅士民之福。可是如今海贼只在博铺，并无深入县内之举，添募民壮，是否有骇视听？”
另一个也忙说：“添募民壮守御，自是良策，然去年台风洪水之后，民生凋敝，若非危急之刻，不可出此惊扰士民之策呀！”
这些滑头士绅个个都是一脸难色。纷纷诉起苦来，无非是朝廷加派繁重，去年又是遭灾，佃户们多有饿死逃亡的……
也有的说琼崖参将的巡船三日必到博铺，官军一到，海贼即使不遁去，汤将军守土有责，必会起白沙水寨之兵来讨伐。
吴明晋脸色愈来愈难看，忽听门外有人道：“城池危在旦夕，诸位还在吝惜几个钱财！”说着话，冯教谕带来两个亲随，用一张藤椅将一位中年人抬了进来。众人忙纷纷起来见礼，甚是恭敬。连吴令也趋步上前，连称：“老先生”。
这位瘫痪多年的中年人，就是临高历史上赫赫有名的刘大霖，字孟良。万历四十七年进士，这是临高自唐代置县以来第一个进士。不过登科后他即瘫痪不起，所以没有出仕。
他此时不过四十出头，正值壮年，虽然身体瘫痪不利行走，但是于地方还是颇为热心的。他家就在县城西门内，一听吴令有请，没有推脱就来了。
吴明晋道：“老先生于此有何良策？”
刘大霖道：“民壮是要募的。贼此刻不动，难道明日也不动了？贼人大股出动岂能只是为占个博铺？博铺离这里才三十里路，贼人朝发午至，待到兵临城下，玉石俱焚，诸位的身家还有得救么？”
他歪了下身子，身边的家仆忙帮他挪动了一下：“如今兵备颓废，还指望汤参将的人马？！诸位没听得探子回报，海贼都乘大铁船，不用帆桨来去自如么？白沙水寨就是倾巢而来，又能如何？”
