The soldiers of Xihe County did not know what was going on, so they hurriedly closed the city gate, and a group of people went up to the city tower and became vigilant.

Seeing that the city gate was closed, Fang Ling said lightly: "The soldiers of Xihe County are quite vigilant. ”

Luo Zhi suddenly snorted, he didn't know whether Fang Ling's words were praising or reproaching, at this time, any mistake could make him lose his head, he almost used his strength to eat 'milk', and shouted out the loudest volume since he was born: "What kind of city gate is closed, I didn't see that His Royal Highness the King of Shicheng has arrived!"

The voice spread far away, and when everyone saw that it was Luo Xian Ling who spoke, they hurriedly opened the city gate again.

Seeing the city gate slowly open, Luo Zhi only felt that his throat hurt, but he didn't forget to flatter him and smile: "Your Highness, the city gate is open." ”

Fang Ling didn't look at him, but said lightly, "The order goes down, and all the county soldiers will gather outside the city and wait for the order." ”

Luo Wei didn't dare to hesitate, and shouted with all his might: "Don't call the county lieutenant of Qu yet!"

When the soldiers defending the city saw that Luo Xianling was angry, they also panicked one by one, and hurriedly ran to call someone.

After a while, a fat middle-aged man ran over, and at first glance, he was taking a nap at home, and at this time he didn't even wear his official hat, and a strap dragged like a tail behind his back.

As soon as the county lieutenant Qu saw the hundreds of soldiers outside, all of them were strong and strong, and then saw Luo Xianling's face was stunned, and he hurriedly bowed down to the ground and said: "The minister will meet His Highness, and meet Lord Luo." ”

Fang Ling asked lightly: "Captain Qu, how many county soldiers are there in Xihe County?"

Lieutenant Qu subconsciously glanced at Luo Value, Luo Value didn't want to be dragged back by this guy, and said with a cold face: "Your Highness asks you, you will answer truthfully!"

Lieutenant Qu hurriedly responded: "There are a total of two hundred and ninety-one people. ”

Fang Ling knew the number of people, and he knew that anyone who had an official position in the army must be the children of the Wang clan, and the reason why he asked like this was to see Luo Zhi's status, and with the help of him, he could really take these soldiers for his own use.

Luo Wei cautiously glanced at Fang Ling, and immediately ordered, "Pass the order, and all the county soldiers will gather outside the city. ”

The county lieutenant did not dare to hesitate, and shouted to the soldiers in front of the city gate: "Go to the barracks immediately, spread the order of Lord Luo, and all the soldiers will gather here!"

The soldier didn't know what was happening, so he hurried into the city.

After a while, more than half of the soldiers hurried in, all of them young men of good blood, all neat in military uniforms and full of energy.

After a while, the remaining fifty or sixty county soldiers rushed over slowly, these people were older, one by one, loose, some even yawned, they didn't even wear their clothes properly, and the knife was hung on their waists very casually.

Seeing that Fang Ling had brought more than a hundred soldiers, although he was a little curious, he was not nervous, and some were still talking in a whisper.

Fang Ling glanced at these people and said lightly: "All the soldiers are out of line!"

So, ten of these fifty or sixty people came out, and among them was Xu Bing, who was at the city gate that day.

Then, Fang Ling asked the county lieutenant Qu, "County lieutenant Qu, how many years have you been a county lieutenant?"

"This, ten...... Decade. Lieutenant Qu didn't know the purpose of Fang Ling's question, so he thought about it before answering.

"Ten years, that's 120 months. Fang Ling smiled faintly and gestured towards Dong Canghai, and Dong Canghai ordered the soldiers to "insert" the wooden stakes they carried with him into the ground one by one.

Just when everyone was puzzled, Fang Ling Nunu said: "You cut 120 knives at the stake." ”

"Huh?" Lieutenant Qu couldn't help but be stunned.

"Ah what, this is the most basic military training, what must be done every day, Your Highness tells you to do it, you will do it!" Dong Canghai roared, and the huge internal force rolled in like a wave, and more than 300 people were shocked to the point that their eardrums were numb.

Seeing that Luo County's order was silent, Qu County Lieutenant hurriedly pulled out the knife, but pulled it out a few times before pulling out the knife, standing in front of the stake, he shouted, and then cut down with a knife, the knife was cut to the wood, but it was not pulled out for a long time, and finally kicked the wood with his foot before pulling the knife out.

The military standard has several pounds of weight, and the machete is every soldier from the beginning of the army to learn, don't look at the simple chopping stake, but the force is too large, easy to get stuck on the wood, the force is small, and can not cut in, but also to the angle, speed, etc., under the long-term training, the soldier can master the appropriate strength, so as to kill the enemy with a knife.

Fang Ling sneered and said to Luo Zhi: "Luo County Order, it seems that this county lieutenant is not very good, how can he be called a county lieutenant at such a level?"

"This ...... Your Highness, the minister has been busy with affairs, and this training of soldiers is entrusted to the county lieutenant. Luo Wei was shocked and hurriedly pushed the responsibility away.

Yu Zhengqi couldn't help wiping his sweat, and his heart was uneasy.

Fang Ling said lightly: "Then according to you, what should be done?"

"This ...... The post of county lieutenant should be removed!" Luo Zhi has been in officialdom for a long time, and he suddenly understood, and hurriedly said loudly.

As soon as he said this, the county lieutenant of Qu couldn't help but be stunned, but Luo Wei didn't wait for him to speak, and scolded loudly: "Captain Qu, as a county lieutenant, you can't even use machetes, how can you be competent?

As soon as Luo Wei spoke, all the soldiers looked at each other, and after a while, two soldiers came up and carefully pulled off the official hat and uniform of the Qu County Lieutenant.

Fang Ling watched quietly, naturally knowing what these people were thinking, the Qu family was also one of the wang clans, the origin of this Qu County Lieutenant was not small, who knew if Luo Zhi was acting in front of his Royal Highness, and he would recover after he left.

Then, Fang Ling said: "Next, when it comes to your military affairs, please." ”

The soldiers hesitated for a moment, but they still walked up, and if they were able to become soldiers in the county, they must be the children of the Wang clan, who were all in front of the guard and the back on weekdays, and where had they practiced any swordsmanship? Some didn't even know how to draw a sword.

As a result, two soldiers were the same as the Qu County Lieutenant, and they couldn't even pull it out when they cut it down, and although the other soldiers cut it a few times, they were immediately so thunderous that they were out of breath, and they didn't even have the strength to lift the knife.

Fang Ling glanced at Luo Value, Luo Value immediately comprehended, and ordered loudly: "You, as soldiers, don't even know how to use machetes, so all of them will be dismissed!"

The soldiers looked at each other, but they didn't take this to heart, and they threw their official hats and swords to the ground and stood aside.

Fang Ling said lightly to the ordinary soldiers: "Then, now it's your turn, whoever can cut 120 knives has the possibility of becoming a soldier and a county lieutenant." ”

Seeing Fang Ling say this, the county lieutenant Qu and the soldiers couldn't help but smile at the corners of their mouths, they just thought it was a joke, let the civilians manage the children of the Wang clan, isn't it a joke?

The soldiers are also looking at me and I look at you, full of hesitation, I have lived in Xihe County since I was a child, everyone knows how powerful the Wang clan is, and now it is strong, and when His Royal Highness leaves, this official position will not have to fall.

Fang Ling glanced at Xu Bingshi lightly and said, "Xu Bingshi, what's so funny?"

Xu Bingshi arched his hand casually, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, I didn't laugh, I just think that Your Highness, you are too 'bothered' about this trivial matter of sesame mung beans......"

Fang Ling suddenly became angry, and shouted loudly: "Presumptuous, he actually regarded the military aircraft as a trivial matter, and regarded military training as child's play, giggling in front of this king, and not seeing the king's law!

Fang Ling needed to find someone to open the knife, but when he saw Xu Bingshi talking, he immediately charged Xu Bingshi with a bunch of crimes, and then two people rushed forward to tie Xu Bingshi.

Xu Bingshi was taken aback, and took two steps back in a bit of a panic and said: "You dare! Our Xu family is a prestigious family, which of you dares to do something to me!"

As soon as he said this, Lieutenant Qu and the other soldiers also straightened their waists and stopped in front of Xu Bingshi, with a disdainful sneer on their faces.

Fang Ling waved his hand and shouted, "Tie them all up for me!"

More than a dozen soldiers immediately rushed up, and everyone was very tired after cutting a few stakes, but at this time, who had the strength to resist, they were all tied up with almost no effort, and all of them were stuffed with white cloths in their mouths.

Then, a path was dispersed among the people, and the soldiers pushed out a prisoner cart, and Qu County Lieutenant and others were immediately stuffed into the prisoner cart.

When they saw this, everyone was taken aback, everyone thought that this King of Shicheng was just making a show, but who expected that even people were tied to the prisoner cart now.

Fang Ling said in a deep voice at this time: "This king is here today to rectify Xihe County, you should all know about this king's banquet for the two county wang clans today, the patriarchs of each wang clan do not see the king's law, disobey the order, and have been thrown into prison by this king! From now on, remove the post of Luo Zhixian order, and the soldiers of the whole county will be directly commanded by this king, if there is any disobedience and disobedience, there will be no forgiveness!"

As soon as these words came out, more than a hundred soldiers behind him shouted at the same time: "Yes!"

Luo Wei was taken aback by this voice, and the whole person was empty, Yu Zhengqi whispered comforting: "It's good to be able to lose your life." ”

Hearing that the patriarch had been arrested, and the county orders and soldiers had all been dismissed, everyone knew that the King of Shicheng was moving seriously, and the county lieutenant and the soldiers were like being struck by lightning, and they couldn't come back to their senses for a while.

Fang Ling swept over everyone at this time and said: "This king is determined to change the malpractice of Xihe County, what is in front of you is an opportunity to make contributions, whoever has the courage to 'color', who has the strength, who can take the lead in cutting 120 knives, who can become the county's soldiers!"

As soon as he said this, the crowd suddenly became agitated, and immediately several people strode out, picked them up, and slashed at the stake.
