Today is a sunny day, and it is also a day for the bigwigs of the military forces in Wonju to gather and meet the new governor.

Lin Yue looked at the seventy or eighty people in the audience, and couldn't help but scratch his cheeks, which was completely different from what he imagined.

But looking at the dozens of crooked people in front of him, all with flattering smiles, what about the mighty and unruly warriors who said that they were good? Seeing that these people did not come empty-handed, some carried sausages, some held baskets of eggs, and some carried a big carp, this should be a greeting gift......

Lin Yue asked Su Shun beside him with a blank face: "What's going on?"

Su Shun hurriedly said: "My lord, all the military attaches who have positions in Yuanzhou are here. ”

Lin Yue smiled bitterly: "How do you look at the old and the young, it doesn't look like it." ”

Under the leadership of Su Shun, everyone saluted the new commander-in-chief, and Lin Yue saw a trembling old man, who was afraid that he was sixty or seventy years old.

Lin Yue asked, "Are you also an officer?"

The old man hurriedly said: "Don't dare, my lord, the humble position is the head of the Black Tiger Mountain." ”

Lin Yue's face turned dark: "No, isn't there a gang of robbers on Black Tiger Mountain? Where is the garrison?"

The old man could only laugh, it was not easy to answer, Lin Yue turned his head and asked Su Shun: "What the hell is going on?"

It turns out that this Yuanzhou is far away from the war and stable and rich, and has long not cultivated military equipment, and it is not even satisfied with the establishment, even so, there are a large number of people in the army who do not do anything, and the general generals of the past dynasties are also the children of the family who are airborne in the capital, after all, the scope of this to the capital, and it is also there for a day to walk slowly, so many young family officials are not willing to run too far away as officials, so they gather together to run near the capital.

Nearly two years ago, the Holy Maiden Sect divided troops to attack Taoguan, once the breakthrough could not be killed in two days, those young masters and officials were afraid, so they tried their best to run to the capital, the last general soldier left a year ago, and he left in office, and he did not leave office at all, that is to say, Yuanzhou has been in a situation where someone is an official, but the person who is an official is not in office. Lin Yue can be regarded as an eye-opener, such a country is not wronged when it dies.

Seeing that Su Shun explained the ins and outs to Lin Yue, Lin Yue didn't look excessive, and the old man also put his mind at ease, it seems that the new chief's temperament is okay, anyway, he doesn't have a few years to live, so he simply asked: "That, Lord Commander, in fact, I haven't received my salary for more than a year." ”

Lin Yue was stunned: "What? What's going on? Yuanzhou is also considered a front line according to the deployment, so it stands to reason that double pay should not be implemented in wartime?"

Su Shun smiled bitterly: "This may be related to the predecessor, Rong Beizhi will tell you in private." ”

Lin Yue nodded: "Since you haven't been paid for a year, you shouldn't be able to live, why don't you look like it?" Looking at the people in front of him, although it doesn't seem like a good life, it doesn't seem like he can't live.

The old man sighed and said: "Adults don't know, in fact, about the problem of salary, I had it when I was young, either intermittently, or was wantonly deducted, and now most of the brothers in the army are actually busy with side jobs, otherwise they really can't support a family." ”

Lin Yue looked at these people, although not everyone dared to stand up and speak like this old man, but they all had a worried expression on their faces. It seems that although everyone has a side job, they are not doing very well, and there are all kinds of gifts to Shangguan today. In fact, they were also worried in their hearts, the last time they saw the former chief soldier, they made the chief soldier from a big family very unhappy, but the family was raised there, but there was no punishment, anyway, he was just here to mess around.

But who wants to fight together, this general soldier swept away all the double salaries during the war, and all those who could fight in Yuanzhou were transferred, and the rest were just ordinary people who were nominal military positions.

Lin Yue was interested: "Then in this case, why don't you directly serve the people and live a small life in peace?" You must know that even if you don't go to the battlefield but are stationed in the place, as a military officer, it is also indispensable to do some daily exercises. "Not to mention Lin Yue's appointment, he said that he wanted to meet people, but they didn't come from all over Yuanzhou.

The old man smiled bitterly and said: "My lord, if the military position can still be exempted, if we are only afraid of serving the people, we are afraid that we will have to serve everywhere, and we really want to go to the royal tomb, it will be a life of nine deaths." ”

Lin Yue shook his head, by the way, there is still this stubble, a lot of laborers have been recruited to repair the royal tomb, but because of the rebellion of the laborers of the royal tomb in the south, it has been made in vain all these years, and it is really possible that the matter of drawing Ding will happen again.

Lin Yue didn't want to talk to them more, but Lin Yue accepted all the things they sent, in fact, sometimes accepting gifts is the greatest courtesy, which is also the reason that Lin Yue has been an official all these years. Although it's just some sausages, pickled eggs, etc......

Send these officers away, let's call them officers. Lin Yue asked about the military salary again, and after Su Shunyi's explanation, he understood that they had indeed not received the military salary for more than a year, and most of them were people who did not have hope for this, on weekdays, some of them killed pigs and slaughtered sheep, some sold along the street, and some worked for a short time, as long as they could be safe and secure and not be dragged to serve, they would be satisfied, and it was precisely because of this why the predecessor didn't care about this matter, that is, to eat some real salary in addition to eating empty sounds.

After explaining, Su Shun immediately said: "My lord, look, there are more than ten nobles who invite you to dinner tonight, and dozens of big families will also invite you to ...... tomorrow."

Lin Yue understands that although in the eyes of the Duke of Dingnan's Mansion and the Marquis of Zhushun's Mansion, he is just a small person, but in the hearts of some small nobles, he is a new star in the future officialdom, not only has a real official position, but also a regular title, and what is even more rare is that these are obtained by himself, which proves that this person has his own ability and connections, coupled with Lin Yue's current age, I believe that there are still many people who want to sell well and tie up. Tonight is a treat for the scholars, and tomorrow night's big families should be some landlords and wealthy merchants, and because of the hierarchy, these two groups of people should be separated.

After Su Shun finished speaking, he asked, "My lord, ...... you look?"

Lin Yue said: "Go, of course you have to go, eat big households, why don't you go, oh yes, do you know where my fiefdom is?"

Su Shun said: "This villain doesn't know, but you can go to Anling County Ya to ask." ”

Lin Yue was named Anlingjun, and Anling County was under the rule of Yuanzhou, in fact, logically speaking, nobles with fiefs could not be officials in the fiefdom, but this rule has long been observed, and this time Lin Yue was first named Anlingjun, as for the official position of the general soldier is operated by the Taishi Mo Yunhai, the purpose is also to allow Lin Yue to be able to respond around the capital, the battle for the throne has changed from dark to light, and Mo Yunhai has to prepare early.

When Lin Yue and Su Shun set off for Anling County, outside the side gate of the Marquis of Zhushun's Mansion, two people wearing long windbreakers and hats came, who were the men and women outside Yuanzhou City.

The male voice said first: "If you are dead, you are still buried in the ground, and if you are not a cultivator, it will be difficult for ordinary people to find out." ”

The female voice also said: "Something is wrong, this is obviously done so as not to cause trouble, if it is really a powerful monk, how can he have this scruple?" After all, no matter how great the power of the Marquis of Zhushun in the world is, it is not the opponent of these monks, and if a subordinate woman kills it, will anyone avenge her?

The male voice shook his head: "I don't know, but the target is dead, which is a good thing, so let this resentment go with the wind." ”

The female voice was silent and turned to leave, while the male voice followed.

……

Lin Yue and Su Shun came out of the Anling County Government in the afternoon, for Lin Yue's arrival, the Anling County Lieutenant also showed great enthusiasm, after all, Lin Yue's fief is under his rule, and everyone will still come and go often in the future, as for which land it is, in fact, as long as it is not indicated in the edict, generally speaking, the person who is entitled can be selected within the scope of the seal.

Although Lin Yue was named Anling Jun, in fact, there were only 500 households, but if it was placed in Anling County, it would be regarded as a big household, and the county lieutenant also said that in addition to Wujie Town, the public land of the entire Anling County could be selected at will to accommodate 500 households. Because Wujiezhen has the family of the former prime minister, it is not easy to divide Lin Yue.

Lin Yue immediately said that he wanted to see the land, and the county lieutenant also expressed his understanding, he thought that Lin Yue was going to inspect the quality of the land, but in fact, Lin Yue thought of another matter.

After leaving the county Yalin Yue, he said: "You go back first, I want to see an old man." ”

Su Shun said: "My lord, there is a banquet in the evening, you see ......" Lin Yue naturally understood that Su Shun was worried about his delay.

Lin Yue waved his hand: "Don't worry, I don't have to ride a horse to drive, just wait for the flying sword to come out, and it will only be a matter of time to go back and forth." Hearing this, Su Shun was also relieved, Lin Yue stepped on the flying sword and returned to the city, what effort would it take.

After Su Shun left, Lin Yue walked in the opposite direction, and the old man he saw today reminded him that there was still a group of robbers under his rule.

On Black Tiger Mountain, there is still a little distance from the cottage.

Lin Yue walked on this quiet path, and once talked to Xiao Qilin about the matter of Black Tiger Mountain, and he didn't think much about it, but since he knew that he could choose a fief in Anling County, Lin Yue had a plan.

As he was walking, there was a sound of children frolicking on the side of the road, Lin Yue paced over, but saw a few children sitting on the tree stump, or leaning against the trunk of the tree, watching a girl boxing, this girl is not very old, about fourteen or fifteen years old, and his student blonde princess Ji Ya is about the same.

Lin Yue recognized this girl at a glance as Lei Fang, the daughter of Lei Daren, the leader of the Black Tiger Mountain Cottage 'Nine Rings Invincible', and it was even more moving after two years, and after two years to twenty-eight years, I don't know how many young people I want to charm, Lin Yue also maliciously thought that with Lei Daren's rough appearance, this is really a daughter?

Seeing that Lei Fang's set of boxing methods was quite powerful, the surrounding friends were also clapping their little hands excitedly, but Lin Yue shook his head, this set of boxing methods should be rigid and soft, and Lei Fang practiced too fiercely, and he couldn't get it back when he hit it, so it couldn't be regarded as a superior boxing technique.

After practicing boxing, Lei Fang was about to beckon his little friend to leave, but he saw Lin Yue smiling on the side of the road, "It's you!!" Seeing Lin Yue's face, Lei Fang was angry, and suddenly swung his fist at Lin Yue.
