Watching the Bozhou army team go away, the owner of Ma Zhai and Huo Bao glanced at each other, and both of them had more lightness in their eyes.

The affairs of the Bozhou Army should be left to worry about the third apprentice.

More than 3,000 horses and more than a dozen generals were divided into three factions, and it was a mess.

If the three disciples are not integrated, I am afraid that there will be chaos in the future.

If the team is integrated in three ways, it will inevitably be suspected of exclusivity.

In addition, Marshal Liu's three sons are gone, no matter what the inside situation is, Tusan's reputation will not be good.

Huo Bao didn't gloat, but he didn't want to expand too much.

Otherwise, it would not be the Jinling Domain, and it would not be possible to say that it would confront Jinling before other forces.

The owner of the horse village is also similar to Huo Bao.

It can tolerate the expansion of the three bases, but it must be within the moderate range.

If that line is crossed, even if the Bozhou army does not drag its feet inside, the Chuzhou army will have to pull the strings.

"Liu Biao is good, but it's a pity!"

The owner of the horse village is really reluctant.

This Liu Biao, if he stays in the Chuzhou Army, he will also be a general. Even if it can't be compared to the water into the brave martial arts, it will not be too far behind.

As for Han Xishan, his face is written with bends and bends, which is obviously inappropriate.

As for Chen Yi and Chen Dazhi's uncles and nephews, Ma Zhai didn't mention it.

Chen Yi is a person in the countryside, even if he has some knowledge, how strong can he be.

The civilian officials under the Chuzhou army, if they pull out any of them, they will not be weaker than Chen Yi.

Huo Bao also has a good impression of Liu Biao.

If Liu Biao was the son of Marshal Liu, not his nephew, or if Marshal Liu had given up his son earlier and made this nephew the heir, Bozhou Jun would not have changed his surname.

"I just hope that we will start and finish well with the third apprentice......"

The owner of the horse village inexplicably came up with this idea.

One mountain does not tolerate two tigers, and his so-called "good beginning and good ending" is naturally one day to lead the Bozhou army to join the Chuzhou army, so that Liu Biao can also be in the Chuzhou army.

As for the third apprentice, he can lead the troops alone from Monk Feng.

And he is Huo Wu's in-law, and he is different from Monk Feng.

It's just that the owner of the horse village also understands in his heart that a heroic figure like Tu San will not be willing to live under others.

The power of the Chuzhou army has risen sharply, but it has not reached the point where the three disciples are willing to bow down and be vassals.

"It's time for Uncle Cousin to come back!"

Huo Bao looked in the direction of Lingshui.

Now that Lingshui is rightly returned to the Chuzhou army, there is no need to be in a hurry.

Besides, with Deng Jian's temperament, he has exhausted his patience to achieve this step, and I am afraid that he has no heart to pay attention to specific matters.

Most of them still told Huo Wu secretly and asked Huo Wu to arrange this matter.

……

In the afternoon of the next day, Deng Jian returned to Chuzhou.

Of the 6,000 soldiers he brought, 3,000 returned, and another 3,000 soldiers stayed in Lingshui with Shuijin to guard it.

A county town, like the soldiers of Chuzhou Prefecture, but no one thinks it is wrong.

After all, Lingshui was under the rule of the Bozhou army before, and it had only gone through siege warfare, and the people's hearts were unstable.

It is also reasonable to be heavily guarded.

The personnel of the Chuzhou Army were previously in the hands of Huo Wu and the master of Ma Zhai.

However, with the expansion of the territory of the Chuzhou Army, it was not designated to the county level.

According to the rules, Lingshui Zhixian can be discussed by the Chuzhou Zhizhou and Chuzhou Governors.

Wang Duwei still has a lesson from the past, where do you dare to recommend Xinzhi County personnel casually?

He worked hard here, and all the achievements he saved were erased due to improper recommendation, but there was no place to cry out for injustice.

This time, he didn't point fingers anyway.

As for Bi Zhizhou, he has only been in Chuzhou for half a month, and he is still unfamiliar with the place, and it is even more difficult to arrange candidates for Xinzhi County.

In fact, he also has a candidate in mind, that is, the elderly nephew who follows him.

It's just that he understands that this is cheap at the moment.

Whether it is the vacated Quyang Zhi County or the Lingshui Zhi County, his nephew is not suitable.

Even if "the virtuous do not avoid relatives", there is no reason for uncles and nephews to be superiors and subordinates.

That's too ignorant.

It is best to pass the official examination in Jinling and go to other state capitals to start.

The Chuzhou army fought in several state capitals, and there were not one or two magistrates who opened the city gates along the way.

How can Bi Zhizhou stand out from the crowd and be directly promoted to Daizhizhou?

It's just Huo Wu's favor to Chaohu Water Master.

If Bi Zhizhou is mediocre, I am afraid that he will be the first generation of Zhizhou.

Only by operating with heart, making every effort, and managing the place well, can we truly gain a foothold in the Chuzhou Army.

The two chief officials did not interfere in the personnel, and the master of the horse village pointed out a person under his command, who was the cousin of Xiong Qianhu, who was not good at war, so he followed the master of the horse village to do chores, and it was better to be careful and cautious.

"Go to Lingshui to temporarily act as the county commander, don't have much to do, maintain stability is essential, everything will be arranged by Jinling!" The owner of the horse village explained.

The man respectfully agreed, and went to Lingshui without mentioning it.

Deng Jian looked at the owner of the horse village and smiled.

What is this to see?

Just arrange for henchmen to go over?

The owner of the horse village smiled: "Congratulations to Deng Ye, you have made a great contribution!" ”

As for what the credit, it goes without saying.

Bi Zhizhou and Wang Duwei were beside him, just for the sake of Lingshui's belonging, and also to congratulate Deng Jian.

Deng Jian said with a smile: "It's okay to fight, but the others are very boring!" Speaking of this, he said to Wang Duwei: "Lingshui County was chaotic before, although it was cleaned up in July, and now it has passed in March, and the bandits have some resurgence appearances, and they still need to be rectified!" ”

Wang Duwei's spirit was shocked, and he immediately responded: "Yes, my subordinates will take people to Lingshui to clear the place from tomorrow!" ”

He is still carrying it on his back now, and he is not afraid of having errands, but he is afraid of being idle.

Some of them have made meritorious contributions, erased their mistakes, and their hearts are also steady.

There is no need to compare with others, only Li Qianhu is in front, which is enough for him to catch up.

Now it is no longer Li Qianhu, it is the prefect of Luzhou.

At the beginning, both of them were thousands of households under Deng Jian, and only Li Zhifu was good at general affairs and took care of Quyang County's affairs, so they fell into Huo Wu's eyes.

Governor Li is one step faster, step by step.

The two are now a lieutenant and a prefect, both of whom are one character, but they are different in the end.

Wang Duwei is also the earliest old man in the Chuzhou army, and it can be seen that the Chuzhou military personnel have important identity and qualifications, and their ability is more important, and they do not choose between relatives and relatives.

The three under Deng Jian's command are now all prominent.

There are four people under the command of the master of the horse village, two of whom came out, one of whom asked for guilt, and one of whom wiped out everyone.

The three people under Du Laoba's command have flawed character and insufficient ability, and they are all unknown.

Of the four people under Monk Feng's command, one of them was already the governor of Hezhou.

It's just that the monk will be good at military training, and now he is training the new barracks in Hezhou, and most of them will return to Jinling in the future.

The candidate to replace him should be the lieutenant of Hanshan County, Tang Guang's old department.

Huo Bao was very curious about the mineral deposits in Lingshui.

It's just that in front of Wang Duwei and Bi Zhizhou, he endured it and didn't ask.

When the two of them went down, there were only three people left, and Huo Bao said, "Uncle Cousin, what is there in Lingshui?" Iron ore? Silver? ”

The owner of the horse village also had sparkling eyes, staring at Deng Jian.

"Gold Mine!"

Deng Jian raised his eyebrows.

Huo Bao and the owner of the horse village were both stunned.

Gold mine!

Something more expensive than silver and iron, no wonder Marshal Liu and General Han hid the news to death.

Neither of them asked Deng Jian about the source of information.

Deng Jian took the initiative to mention: "It was the fifth brother who got the news and privately ordered me to take the opportunity to go back to Lingshui ......" Speaking of this, he glanced at Huo Bao and said: "Marshal Liu's people went to Songjiang to buy salt, and in order to avoid people's eyes, they chose a remote salt farm, which happened to be the salt field under Xiaobao's name......"

The person in charge of staying behind over there was the person from the Ninth Master, who had a pair of sharp eyes, and saw that it was a new mineral gold, so he sent someone to send an urgent letter to Huo Wu.

In all fairness.

Over there, Huo Wu learned that the Bozhou Army might have a gold mine, and someone from the Huo family in Binjiang took the initiative to surrender.

It was Huo Man's son and grandson, who couldn't stand the hardships of the hard labor camp, and asked to see Huo Wu on the grounds of secret affairs.

What he was talking about was the "secret base" of the Bozhou Army in Dongshan.

The daughter of the Han clan married by the Huo family, her father is in charge of that "secret base".

In my daily life, I brought some news out.

The Huo family didn't know about the mine, so they only regarded it as the back hand left by General Han, carrying the private soldiers raised by Marshal Liu on their backs.

Now that they are in trouble, they regard this "secret base" as a lifesaver.

Dongshan, which is also in the Black Python Mountain, is next to the direction of Lingshui County.

The temple where the disciples first became monks was in Dongshan.

The owner of the horse village smiled.

Gold and silver are hard currencies.

Whether the Chuzhou army went north to sell horses or went south to collect grain, they were short of money.

Huo Bao was secretly tongued.

That's Daddy's luck.

If the news came later, and Tu San had already taken over Lingshui, the news of this gold mine should almost be known.

At that time, in addition to the hard robbery, where can the Chuzhou army go back to Lingshui?

A gold mine, one gain and one loss, the distance between Chuzhou and Bozhou has widened again.

Although the luck of the third apprentice is also good, compared to his father, it is not enough.

According to the warlock's statement, the purple qi on the father's body is thicker than that of the third apprentice.

……

After the matter in Chuzhou, on October 13, Huo Bao and Ma Zhaizhu, Deng Jian and others left Chuzhou and returned.

accompanied by an old monk and several members of the monitoring team.

The old monk was in good spirits, and the dense frowns on his face before were stretched a lot.

Fighting with people is endlessly fun.

Besides, it's to protect the people.

Since the old monk is a "dead man", he is not worried about affecting his children and grandchildren, so he is very conscientious.

Quyang's "tax increase case" is not uncommon to say.

Local corruption and official exploitation in Daning are all in this pattern.

Quyang officials think that they act in a measured manner (only increase commercial tax, not agricultural tax), have a strong backing (Deng Jian, the head general of Huo Wu and his in-laws), and are famous for his teacher (Ma Juzi is married, and Miss Xiuxiu is ready to marry), so he acts confidently.

The old monk thought clearly, and when he returned to Jinling, he would talk to Huo Wu about local county governance.

The county magistrate, county lieutenant and other auxiliary officials can use locals, but the county magistrate must not use locals.

Otherwise, there are too many involved, even if you are good, you will inevitably have in-laws.

The Daning Dynasty is now about to collapse, but the Daning official system is coming with the previous dynasty and has been passed down from generation to generation, which has merits.

Even if the Chuzhou army had the intention of replacing it, there was no need to completely deny the Daning official system.

The article of "being an official in a different place" cannot only be implemented in the state capital, but also as a county.

Because most of the officials who have been selected and used by the Chuzhou Army are from Chuzhou, Hezhou, and Luzhou.

The official examination in Jinling is the tenth day of October.

The official test of the Taiping Mansion has not yet been decided.

The Taiping Mansion was originally decided, and it was close to the imperial court's territory, so how to plan it will have to be seen again.

("It is basic to be an official for a hundred miles...... Even if it is a county, it is better to be a different county, otherwise it is easy to hinder the county......")

……

On October 15, Huo Bao, Deng Jian and others crossed the river and returned to Jinling.

Walking to the airport today, there is only this one more, and I owe a watch, and I will go back and make up for it ^_^
