It took Zhu Wen and the others more than an hour to bury all the robbers who were killed, and as for their own soldiers, they were all cremated and cleaned up. Originally, Zeng Yu wanted to bring them all back, but considering the weather and time, he could only deal with it like this. Zhang Fuguang's dead guards were treated in the same way, and the nine seriously injured were made on improvised stretchers and carried by other uninjured guards.

The rest of the journey went smoothly, Zhang Fuguang left the seriously injured guards in Anyi County, and left a few people to take care of them, and then they continued to Anping County.

Half a month later, they finally returned to the confines of Anping County. During this period, Zhang Fuguang and the others once again passed through the village of the Yellow Turban Sect that they first used when they met Zeng Yu, Zeng Yu and the others originally wanted to stay overnight, but the other party said that they would not provide help now. Zeng Yu and they could only continue to hurry, when they left the village, Zeng Yu vaguely heard the sound of shouting and killing during training in the village, he was silently startled, it seems that the Yellow Turban Road incident is very close.

When he arrived outside Anping County, Zeng Yu proposed to Zhang Fuguang: "Fuguang, do you want to go to Lingyunzhuang with me first, we don't know the situation in the county seat at present, and it may be dangerous for you to venture in." ”

Zhang Fuguang thought for a while, "That's all it can be." ”

So the whole caravan walked to the east of the county seat, and when they came to the location of Lingyunzhuang, they saw a large fortress surrounded by a tall courtyard wall, which at first glance extended hundreds of meters long, enclosing the entire manor.

As soon as Zeng Yu and his team approached, several villagers dressed as guards came over vigilantly. But when they saw Zeng Yu, the leader of the group, they hurriedly knelt down on one knee and saluted, and shouted respectfully: "My subordinates have seen the lord." ”

Although he knew that there would be a big change in Lingyunzhuang, Zeng Yu didn't expect it to change so much, he asked a few villagers to be exempt from courtesy, and asked them: "Nothing has happened to the manor recently, can Yachuan be inside?" ”

"Lord Qi, everything is fine in the manor, Lord Liu and several other adults are inside, everyone is waiting for the lord to come back." One of them replied happily, with gratitude and fanaticism in his tone. They are all former villagers, and they have loyalty to Zeng Yu, the lord who gave them a free identity, which is incomparable to outsiders.

"Well, I'll go over now, and you guys go about your business."

Guo Jia followed Zeng Yu into Lingyun Village, and he saw that everything in the manor was planned in an orderly manner, with a big road in the center, leading directly to the mansion in the center of the manor. On the left side of the main road is a large school yard where a group of soldiers are training, and on the right hand side are rows of barracks.

He said to Zeng Yu: "Lord, our Lingyunzhuang is a big military fortress, is the lord planning to train troops here?" ”

"That's right, I'm planning to recruit homeless people and select young people from them for training. However, I don't think these soldiers have just been trained. Zeng Yu nodded and replied.

"Lord, they should be soldiers of the Ruishi Battalion, look at the person in front, is it very similar to Ziwu." Zhu Wen had been staring at these trained soldiers, and he saw that the person in the lead seemed to be Wang Qing.

The other party also saw them and walked over quickly, Zeng Yu saw that it was indeed Wang Qing.

"Big brother!" Wang Qing listened one step ahead and saluted Zeng Yu with a fist.

"Long time no see, Ziwu." Zeng Yu stepped forward and gave Wang Qing a bear hug.

Then Zeng Yu introduced Wang Qing to others, Guo Jia just saw the group of trained soldiers, and he could see that these people were all elites, and the ability of any single soldier was not inferior to the current Zeng Yu's own soldiers. When he learned from Zeng Yu that these soldiers were all trained by Wang Qing, he had a deep admiration for Wang Qing. And Wang Qing felt from Zeng Yu's introduction to Guo Jia that Zeng Yu attached great importance to Guo Jia, and he was also curious about what Guo Jia was capable of.

As soon as they finished introducing each other, Zeng Yu saw Liu Neng and them walking out of the mansion in the center of the manor, and they should have known the news of Zeng Yu's return and came to greet them. Sure enough, they walked straight to Zeng Yu and saluted Zeng Yu with their fists, "Meet the lord!" ”

"No need to be polite!"

"Thank you, Lord Xie, you have been in a hurry, it should be hard work In addition, let's go to the mansion first."

"It's fine. Chengyong, you took your own soldiers and the guards of the caravan to rest first, and now we have arrived in Lingyunzhuang, and we are safe. ”

"Yes!" At this time, other people naturally came over and took Zhu Wen and all the relatives and guards to rest below.

"Fengxiao, Fuguang, you come with me, and we will discuss the next things." Zeng Yu said to Guo Jia and Zhang Fuguang.

After entering the meeting hall of the manor mansion, Zeng Yu sat in the main seat, and the others sat on the left and right. Zeng Yu took a look, saw that everyone was there, and said: "I am going to Luoyang, and I have already obtained the official certificate appointing me as the commander of Anping County by the imperial court. ”

Liu Neng and Wang Qing were still worried before, but now they are very happy to hear the exact news that Zeng Yu said himself. Wang Qing asked, "Big brother, when will you take office?" ”

"It's okay at any time, but Anping County has always been controlled by Cui Yu and the three major families, and if you want to sit firmly, you need to plan carefully."

Then Zeng Yu continued, "Ziwu, this time you and Wu Ming came over, how many people did you bring in total?" ”

Wang Qing reported the strength of the Ruishi Battalion and the Shooter Battalion to Zeng Yu, and at the same time told Zeng Yu about the situation they discussed when Zeng Yu had not come back before. When Zeng Yu heard Wang Qing say that he was enough to suppress the other party in terms of combat power, he said: "Ziwu has worked hard, it seems that the development of the unclothed army is good." ”

"The eldest brother has won the award, and the unclothed army has developed to the current level, and the second brother's credit is greater than mine."

"I remember everyone's contributions, not only you and Zijin, but also Zhou Cang and them, as well as the brothers who are doing it." Zeng Yu said with emotion.

"Thank you (big brother)!" Everyone clenched their fists and said.

Zeng Yu waved his hand, and then asked Liu Neng: "Yachuan, before I leave, let you inquire about Yin Zhuo's news, I don't know what to gain?" ”

He had been thinking about Yin Zhuo this person, and after knowing that it was enough to take Anping County in other aspects, he now wanted to know if there was any hope of subduing Yin Zhuo.

Liu Neng knew that Zeng Yu valued Yin Zhuo, in fact, after they understood Yin Zhuo's ability, they also felt that such a person should be in their own hands, otherwise once they were subdued by others, it would be a big obstacle for Zeng Yu's side. As they investigated Yin Zhuo, they found that Yin Zhuo's abilities were not above any of them, and even far superior to them in some aspects.

They investigated and learned that this Yin Zhuo may be a descendant of Guan Zhong, the prime minister of Qi during the Spring and Autumn Period. Guan Zhong's seventh grandson, Guan Xiu, was expelled by Qi Qingtian's family, fled from Qi to Chu, and was named Yinyi Doctor, so he was also known as Yin Doctor. The descendants of Yin Xiu took Fengyi as their surname and called Yin, forming a Yin surname. And Yin Zhuo should be the descendants of this branch, which is also after they came into contact with Yin Zhuo, they found that Yin Zhuo's major seemed to be the authentic "Guanzi", and these decrees he made in Anping County were from the light and heavy chapter of "Guanzi".

Zeng Yu had also guessed Yin Zhuo's possible identity before, after all, in this era, Guan Zhong is the only one who pays attention to business in governing the country. At present, there are not many exchanges between various schools of thought, and if it weren't for the fact that Guiguzi had disciples who were fellow practitioners and had left copied versions of some chapters in the "Guanzi", they might not have known Guan Zhong's specific thoughts.

"Do you think this person can be co-opted by us?" Zeng Yu asked.

"My lord, Zhiyuan and I have been in contact with him separately. found that the other party was also successful in learning and wanted to enter the WTO to display his talents, and the reason why he chose Cui Yu was only because he was the first person he met, and then Anping County just met his requirements. We have tried, but the other party has not explicitly refused, and I believe that the main lord will be able to convince the other party. Liu Neng thought for a moment and replied.

"Okay, in that case, we'll head to the county seat in three days. Ziwu, Wu Ming, you lead the unclothed army with me. Zeng Yu clapped his head.

"My lord, what about us?" Liu Neng heard that Zeng Yu only brought the unclothed army into the county seat, and hurriedly asked.

"I'm going to settle everything at once, so there will definitely be a fight, you are not good at battlefield battles, so stay in Lingyun Village and wait for news."

"But ....."

Liu Neng wanted to say, but Wang Qing interrupted him, "Yachuan, it's for your good that the eldest brother asked you not to come over." With my Ruishi battalion and Wu Ming's shooter battalion, we will soon be able to control the county seat, and I will notify you to deal with the aftermath at that time. ”

"Ziwu is right, it's decided like this first."

"My lord, what about me?" Zhang Fuguang found that Zeng Yu and the others did not mention the Zhang family, and he couldn't help but ask at this time.

"Brother Zhang, you stay here, I have already asked someone to send a letter to the Zhang family to tell them that you have returned safely." After Liu Neng saw Zhang Fuguang, he had already sent the name of the village to Zhang's house to deliver a letter at Zeng Yu's prompt.

They are also worried that the Zhang family will be destroyed by Cui Yu and others who jumped off the wall in a hurry, and when Zhang Fuguang is there, they will be able to quickly integrate the strength of the Zhang family and other small families to stabilize Anping County.

"But what's wrong with my Zhang family?" After Zhang Fuguang listened to Liu Neng's words, he became worried.

"At present, all the important tasks of the Zhang family have been monitored by Cui Yu, and your father and second uncle have not come out in the family for a long time, because the Zhang family has more than a thousand private guards, and they are still safe for the time being. But we are worried that the other party is in a hurry to attack you, so I suggest that Brother Zhang it is better for you to stay here for the time being. ”

"Then please help me pay attention to my Zhang family." Zhang Fuguang asked Zeng Yu.

"Don't worry, once the other party makes a move, we will be very fast, and we can arrive in half a day." Zeng Yu said.

"Thank you, sir!"

"Alright, let's go our separate ways. Ziwu, you stay! ”
