Chapter 69: The Army Arrives at the Rooster

After Hou Kaishan and a few people left, Lu Yuan was about to go to Jiming Mountain, when Sihu Zuo Kongqian walked in.

"Lord County Order, there is an official letter from the imperial court." He held a piece of paper in both hands.

Lu Yuan took a look and found that there were two copies, one for himself and one for Li Xiancheng.

When I opened my share, I saw that it was a commendation document sent by the ministry, saying that Lu Yuan had a good way of governing She County, sweeping away traitors and evils, and benefiting one party, so he issued a special encouragement.

Lu Yuan unceremoniously opened the document to Li Xiancheng, this official document was also from the Ministry of Officials, but it was an official document reprimanding and demoting.

Reprimanded Li Xiancheng, Yuan Zhushu, and Li County Lieutenant for not only not governing the county well, but also slandering and slandering the officials when the county order was vacant, and each of them was demoted by one level.

After the three were demoted, Li Xiancheng became the ninth grade, and the other two became the ninth grade.

Thinking that the imperial history had quietly come and knew Ding Wei's crime, so he folded to the officials, Lu Yuan was very happy in his heart, but when he thought that this was the king's policy, he was a little sentimental.

"Take it to Li Xiancheng." He handed over the official document from Li Xiancheng.

After Kong Qian left, Zhan Yuan led a woman in again.

Lu Yuan glanced at it and immediately remembered that this woman was with Jin Yuanwu that day.

"My lord, this is my subordinate sister Jin Lanzhi, she... …… She also wants to be famous under the command of adults. ”

His voice trembled a little, and he looked extremely uneasy, if it weren't for Jin Lanzhi's combination of soft and hard to force him for a few days, he would never dare to make such a request.

Lu Yuan flipped through his memories and found that the Southern Tang Dynasty did not stipulate that women were not allowed to catch fast.

However, it is against the law of etiquette to let a woman show her head and be caught quickly, and if she is known from above, she will be reprimanded, so there are very few women who catch fast.

Thinking of this, he asked with a smile: "Is your senior sister martial arts as good as you?" ”

Jin Lanzhi saw that Lu Yuan was extremely kind and bold, and said loudly: "Lord Lu, Zhanyuan can't beat me!" ”

She is telling the truth, because Zhanyuan will give in every time he makes a move with her, so every time she loses, she thinks she is more powerful.

In fact, the martial arts of the two were originally about the same, but now after Zhan Yuanxin learned the three-yuan gong, he has surpassed her by one line.

"Okay, I read that you are a daughter, and the county government does not have a women's official uniform, so I will allow you not to wear a public uniform, but the other rules of the yamen must be strictly observed!"

Jin Lanzhi was overjoyed, women are born with beautiful sex, and her biggest mental obstacle to catching fast is to wear fast catching clothes, but in order to be with Zhanyuan and her brother, she endured it, but she didn't expect Lu Yuan to be so reasonable.

"Thank you, Lord Lu, I will definitely help you catch some more wicked people." Jin Lanzhi said coquettishly.

"Go ahead." Lu Yuan smiled and nodded.

After the two left, Lu Yuan returned to the back house and called Lu Yutong, and the two went to Jiming Mountain.

Seeing Qin Youyu's sister and brother, Qin Youyu had already changed into men's clothes and looked very handsome.

"Let's go."

"Brother Qin, I'm going to borrow your horse." Lu Yuan said.

"Brother Lu is polite, raising horses for many days, use it for a while, Brother Lu might as well feel the difference between the horses I have trained and the county horses?"

Lu Yuan nodded, Qin Quan's horses didn't look very majestic, he was indeed a little curious.

"Yutong, let's go out for a while, you wait for us here." He explained to Lu Yutong.

"I'm going too." Lu Yutong shook Lu Yuan's arm and said.

"We all have to ride horses, you're still too young to ride a horse, it won't take long for us to come back, Yu Hitomi is good, play here."

Lu Yutong thought to himself: "Although I have learned light skills, I will definitely not be able to outrun the horse." ”

"Okay then." She nodded helplessly.

Qin Quan raised a total of five horses, each of the three of them chose one to ride, and walked down the mountain, Lu Yuan looked back, and saw Lu Yutong's small figure standing at the door looking at this side, so he beckoned, but the little girl just stared at this side blankly, and did not wave to respond.

Lu Yuan didn't look any more and went down the mountain.

After the three of them went down the mountain and rode on horseback, Lu Yuan finally learned Qin Quan's horse raising skills, and the horse under his seat not only galloped like a horse's hooves, but also was well-behaved and obedient, and it was effortless to control, making him feel the fun of riding.

Not long after, the three of them walked around the city to the east gate, met Hou Kaishan's four people, and did not stay long, so they ran to the camp together.

Lu Yuan took the six people to the hillside where the king was waiting for him, asked Qin Youyu for a token, and entered the military camp alone to transfer troops.

Jin Yuanwu's heart sank when he saw the barracks, and he asked Hou Kaishan: "Brother Hou, I don't know what Lord Lu is doing here?" ”

"Come here to transfer troops, the adults are ready to exterminate the eleven villages." Hou Kaishan said solemnly.

Looking at the continuous camp below, Jin Yuanwu felt a burst of excitement in his heart, he quickly thought of Lu Yuan's intention to bring the four of them here, but he didn't expect that as soon as he came to the county office, he would have the opportunity to lead the troops to suppress the bandits, there is no doubt that this will be a great opportunity to make meritorious contributions.

The only strange thing is that the two people who came on horseback with Lord Lu, these two people have never seen them before, and they look very young, could it be that they are guides for themselves and others?

After waiting for a while, Lu Yuan led a battalion of soldiers and horses to the hillside, and he was followed by a big man in armor, who was the same man who escorted Fu Lei's prisoner car in the tea shed that day.

His name is Wang Meng, and after Lu Yuan saw him in the military tent, he remembered his brave performance that day, so he specially chose his battalion.

Hou Kaishan and the others immediately stepped forward, and Lu Yuan pointed to the Qin sisters and brothers and said:

"Commander Wang, you lead the troops to follow behind them, and you need to listen to their dispatch along the way, and rush to Jiming Mountain, and we will arrive later."

He was worried about being recognized for walking with the military horses.

Wang Meng glanced at Qin Youyu and the others, and said loudly:

"General Zhang has instructed, I will do whatever Lord Lu says, and Lord Lu just orders."

It's just that he was commanded by Lu Yuan, after all, he was also an official of the imperial court, and now he was arranged to listen to the command of these two boys, and the boss in his heart was not happy.

"Then I'll be one step ahead." Qin Youyu said in a deep voice, his voice neutral.

Saying that, riding forward first, Wang Meng arched his hand to Lu Yuan, and followed with soldiers and horses, and there were several carriages in the team, which were loaded with bows and crossbows and arrows.

"My lord, I don't know who those two are?" Jin Yuanwu waited for them to go away, and then stepped forward and asked.

"I'm going to exterminate Eleven Villages, do you know?" Lu Yuan did not answer the rhetorical question.

"Yes."

"After that, the two of them will be the generals, and the soldiers will be divided into two ways, responsible for suppressing the bandits, I am ready to let you and Hou Bantou assist the two of them, except for Hou Yue and Yuan Qing, you two can choose twenty capable officials in the three classes of officials."

Hearing that those two people were the generals, Jin Yuanwu was a little disappointed in his heart, and he was a little more curious and competitive about these two people, and thought: "I don't know where they are sacred, so trusted by Lord Lu." ”

"My subordinates understood."

When the army went away, Lu Yuan's five people made a detour and headed towards Jiming Mountain first.

After waiting for a long time at the Houshan Grain Depot, Qin Youyu and the two finally led the army over, Lu Yuan suddenly realized that the soldiers and horses in this battalion did not bring a camp tent, and asked:

"Qin Yu, do you want me to send some tents from the county government?" Qin Yu is the pseudonym of Qin Youyu's men's clothing.

"My two hundred and fifty men will not be needed." Qin Youyu smiled.

"I don't need it here." Qin Quan immediately interfaced.

Lu Yuan nodded and said to Wang Meng: "Commander Wang, you will divide your troops into two teams, and you and the deputy commander will each lead one team. ”

"What the county magistrate said, Lao Wang had to do it." Wang Meng snorted.

Although he didn't know Lu Yuan's intentions, he planned to transfer the elite two hundred and fifty people to his command.

"Brother Lu, the top ten teams of the first, second and third capitals are divided into one team, and the rest of the people are the other team, what do you think." Qin Youyu saw through his mind and said.

One "capital" is one hundred people, and there are twenty "soldiers", and each army has a captain.

Lu Yuan secretly praised her for being careful, so that the two armies would be very fair, and no one would suffer, so he gave an order to Wang Meng.

Wang Meng had no choice but to comply, and his dissatisfaction was even heavier.

Qin Youyu knew that his younger brother was arrogant and would definitely not want Wang Meng's team, so he offered to command Wang Meng's team, but Lu Yuan did not allow it.

After the arrangements were made, Lu Yuan was worried about Lu Yutong, and the official affairs of the county government had not yet been dealt with today, so he left Jin Yuanwu and the four of them and said to them:

"Jin Zhutou, you and Yuanqing follow Qin Quan, Hou Bantou, you and Peng Yue follow Qin Yu, today you first familiarize yourself with Qin Yu, starting tomorrow, each bring twenty officials to report here, don't worry about the affairs of the county government, everything will wait until the bandits are successful, and then take care of it."

After saying that, he went on his own.
