Two hours later

It's noon, and the continuous heat of August has rarely been relieved today, and the continuous light rain drifts down from the sky, bringing a long-lost coolness to the county.

Hua Wenzheng of the county government has already obtained all the battle information of this dispatch.

After being silent for half a pillar of incense, the second son, who was born in the Marquis of Zhijing's mansion, was in disbelief that Master Xin, who reported to him, once again confirmed the truth of the matter, until Master Xin vouched for his life, Hua Wenzheng finally smiled, and the laughter became louder and louder.

"Heaven help me, God help me."

No wonder Hua Wenzheng was so excited, as Qingyuan's parents, he knew much more information about the suppression of bandits in the imperial court than Huang Dahu and Yan Kui.

The main purpose of the imperial court's suppression of bandits this time was the three major cottages of the first line of heaven, Heifengling, and White Snake Valley, and even the military department Shangshu Hongguang, who supervised the battle, personally ordered that none of the three major villages should be left, and the bandit leaders must all be ambushed, which shows how strong the imperial court is in suppressing bandits this time.

It was precisely because he saw that the attitude of the imperial court was so resolute that Hua Wenzheng felt that there was a great hope of success in this crackdown on bandits, so he used his connections to seek the position of Qingyuan County Commander, in order to make a contribution in the battle against bandits and increase his resume.

It's just that according to Hua Wenzheng's previous plan, a big head like Heifengling will definitely be conscripted by the main force of the imperial court's bandit army, and he will not have the strength to mix in if he can't get involved.

Therefore, he put the goal of seeking credit for the overall logistics, the supply of grain and grass, and the cooperation with the bandit army to clean up all the small bandits in the territory except for the Black Wind Ridge.

In Hua Wenzheng's calculations, if these two things are done well, even if he can't grab the lead of the bandit army, it is enough to rank first in the credit book, so he will be so active in supporting Yan Kui to set up a militia group, in order to rely on Yan Kui's bravery to exterminate those small bandits who are wandering around Qingyuan.

It's like Yan Kui killed a gust of wind and a gang alone.

…………

As a result, Hua Wenzheng never expected that Yan Kui would be so powerful, and after the militia practiced for a month, he would take people to the Black Wind Ridge.

And the most important thing is that Yan Kui not only scared, but also won a big victory.

Killed the second leader of Qingfeng Ridge and exterminated more than 200 captured bandits.........

Hua Wenzheng fucking wanted to move a mirror, facing himself in the mirror, praising his wisdom of knowing people, praising Yan Kui, the pearl of Mengchen, and how he was discovered by himself and single-handedly let it regain its light.

In the hall

Looking at Hua Wenzheng, who was already out of shape, Master Xin didn't have any intention of laughing, after all, he treated others with himself, and in exchange for Hua Wenzheng, he picked up such a big credit for nothing, and he was afraid that he would have to go crazy on the spot.

But you can't keep letting Hua Wen laugh here, Master Xin looked at the gap, and said with a needle: "Dong Weng, now the Huang County Lieutenant and the Yan Regiment are less than five miles away from the county seat, you see our ........."

As soon as he heard this, Hua Wenzheng slowly regained his composure, but the smile on his face still didn't go down, and Hua Daxian Zunzhi waved proudly: "Come on, give me an order to the people of the whole city to welcome the heroes of the bandits." ”

Master Xin looked at Hua Wenzheng, who was on the rise, moved his mouth, and finally didn't say anything to spoil the fun, he turned around and went out to prepare, and Hua Wenzheng also turned around excitedly, ready to wear an official uniform and show his face in front of the people of the city.

…………

Half an hour later

At the gate of the south of the county seat, the people who had already rushed to hear the news were overcrowded, and Dutou Gu Shang led his subordinates to maintain order, while scolding Hua Wenzheng in his heart for spreading the news of the victory of the official army.

Originally, because Huang Dahu led a part of the county to support Bali Town, he was short of manpower, and now Hua Wenzheng has made such a big battle.

Doesn't that make trouble for him?

Now there are no less than four or five thousand people watching at the city gate, if something goes wrong, he has to scout the melon, thinking of this, Gu Shang's heart is even more angry, and the voice of shouting in his mouth has unconsciously increased a lot.

"Let's all let go of the back, don't crowd around, if anyone delays the army to enter the city for a while, the whip in the master's hand will not spare people."

When it was changed to the side, naturally no one dared to shout with Gu Shang, but today the common people were quite excited when they heard that the official army had won the battle and exterminated the second leader of Heifengling.

"Dutou, did our officers and soldiers really defeat the bandits of the Black Wind Ridge?"

Although he was annoyed that Hua Wenzheng had caused trouble to himself, as a county official and a native of Qingyuan, Gu Shang was still very happy about the heavy attack on Heifengling, and even had the mood to talk a few words with the people.

"The notices at the entrance of the county government have been posted, is this matter still fake?

Master, I heard the scout's report with my own ears that Ye Yunfan, the second leader of Black Maple Ridge, was killed on the spot by Yan Tuanlian of the militia group, and hundreds of his minions were killed or injured, staining the rocky ground red.

and the bandit leader Luo Biao, who was chased by the officials and fled in embarrassment, and almost lost his life, if it weren't for his luck, Heifengling would be completely finished today. ”

…………

Gu Shang, as the head of the yamen, said something of credibility extraordinary, and the people surrounding him immediately burst into cheers.

In the past few years, Luo Biao has taken the bandits of Heifengling to do evil in Qingyuan, and the common people are deeply disgusted with it, and they can't eat its flesh and sleep on its skin.

Seeing this, Gu Shang on the side couldn't help but smile faintly, don't look at him in the county government is the head of the military affairs, but Gu Shang still has some experience of his own psychology for these people.

In all fairness, the court of the Northern Jin Dynasty is not a good official government, Qingyuan is also stained with the light close to the capital, and the common people are living a good life, while other prefectures and counties in the Northern Jin Dynasty can eat enough every day, which is the biggest dream of the people.

Of course, the "rich" people of Qingyuan also have a lot of their own suffering.

For example, the government levied taxes and miscellaneous taxes, the large gentry annexed land, the officers and soldiers were like bandits, the powerful oppressed the good, and regarded human life as a mustard, and the days of Qingyuan were not as peaceful as they were.

Liang was robbing people's girls on the street in broad daylight, and no official people came forward to stop it, which is the best proof of this.

It stands to reason that the common people are living in such a dire situation, and they must have complaints about the government in their hearts, but Qingyuan is a bandit land, and he suffers from bandits all year round.

Compared with the government's soft knife killing, these bandits led by Heifengling brutally killed people and seized money, which undoubtedly suffered more straightforwardly from the resentment and resistance of the people.

This is also the reason why the common people immediately rejoiced when they heard that Heifengling was deflated.

As everyone knows, sometimes a soft knife kills people more painfully and heavily.........

…………

Just as Gu Shang was thinking about the philosophical relationship between the officials, bandits, and the people, a few people squeezed in the crowd on the other side.

The leader is a scholar, handsome in appearance, elegant in temperament, and extraordinary clothing can show the superiority of this family background, and the two entourages in front of him also verify this.

In addition to the scholar and the two entourage, the remaining people are three young girls with white faces, although they can't see their appearance clearly, but they can also get a glimpse of it from their beautiful posture.

At this time, the three young girls huddled together, kept looking at the city gate, and saw that no one had come, and some of them looked at the scholar in a hurry, and asked crisply.

"Xu Dalang, that Yan Kui...... Did the group practice really come in from the South City Gate, I brought the eldest sister to you, you can't lie to me. ”

The scholar smiled indifferently, and pointed to the street with a folding fan in his hand: "Second lady, don't worry, you see the many officials maintained on this street, if the victorious officials and soldiers don't enter the city from here, why should the county government send so many people over." ”

The "second lady" was persuaded by the scholar and continued to wait patiently, but after a while, she couldn't help but lean next to the other girl and asked with a smile.

"Third sister, this Yan Kui is so powerful, he has made such a great contribution in less than two days since he left our house, no wonder he is known as the first good man in Qingyuan."

"Third Sister" couldn't help but nod when she heard this, and said with a weak and inaudible tattoo: "Engong, he is indeed extraordinary, and he is a great hero of our Qingyuan."

"Yo-yo."

The voice of the "third sister" was small, and others didn't listen to it, but the "second lady" was now next to it, and the words of the "third sister" fell into the ears of the "second lady" without missing a word.

This "second lady" with a rather frank and refreshing personality immediately exaggerated twice, and then ran to the girl next to her, who had not spoken, hugged her jade arm and shook it gently, and said with a smile: "Eldest sister, it's terrible, our little sister really has a heart for that Yan Kui." ”

As soon as these words came out, the "eldest sister" in the mouth of the "second lady" didn't wait for anything, and the "third sister" on the side couldn't feel the ridicule of the "second lady", and walked over in shame to catch the culprit and punish him, and suddenly, the horn sounded at the city gate.

The officers and soldiers are about to enter the city.

Regardless of the fight, the three girls looked at the city gate together with the scholars, and after dozens of breaths, several horsemen dressed in matching armor entered the city, and while galloping to the county office, they kept drinking on the street.

"Great victory, the second leader of Heifengling was ambushed, the bandit leader Luo Biao was defeated and retreated, and our army captured hundreds of bandits, a great victory."

As soon as the words fell, a loud shout of "Wansheng" suddenly came from outside the city, followed by countless male voices.

For a time, the word "Wansheng" sounded like thunder, resounding through half of the county.

………

"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!"

The people surrounding the city gate were already overjoyed because of the news of the victory of the official army over Heifengling, but now when they saw this exciting scene, they were even more excited, and their mouths involuntarily shouted the slogan of "Wansheng" together with the outside of the city.

With the shouts of the people in regret, the horses' hooves were crisp, the footsteps were bursting, Huang Dahu and Yan Kui were in parallel, leading a team of officers and soldiers with solemn faces and uniform faces behind them, and slowly marched into the city gate.

And the people, who saw that the official army finally appeared, immediately gave even greater cheers.

In the crowd, the "third sister" looked at Yan Kui who was riding on a horse, his face was full of coldness, and the beautiful eyes hidden under Bai Sha were transformed into infinite tenderness, but not far from her, the second lady's eyes were firmly fixed on a sturdy figure with a bow and arrow behind Yan Kui.

It was Chen Xingxiao, one of Yan Kui's eight small cold-faced arrows............
