Chapter 43: Timely Rain King Bo
Night.
The curtain call.
In the study room of the east courtyard of the Qin Mansion, Qin Qiong frowned.
Cousin Luo Wu is not the kind of person who speaks casually, since he dares to say it, there must be a certain reason.
"I know Wang Bo."
After a long time, Qin Qiong sighed.
"Not only do I know him, but I also want to call him brother."
This was something Luo Feng didn't expect, he only thought that since Wang Bo had served in Qi County, Qin Qiong might know him, but he couldn't imagine that they didn't just know each other.
Qin Qiong picked up the scissors to fry the wick in the oil lamp and turned it on again.
Putting down the scissors, he spoke.
"Speaking of Wang Bolai in Licheng, everyone knows it, and people give him a nickname and timely rain."
Wang Bo used to be a blacksmith, later became a government soldier, and then later made meritorious service and transferred to Qi County to serve. Before Wang Bo was imprisoned, he was appointed as the official of Qi County Fa Cao to participate in the military.
Fa Cao is similar to the modern Public Security Bureau, Sui Shu Guanzhi: Fa Cao, judicial participation in the military, palm prison Li Fa, supervising thieves, knowing that bribes are not entered.
The upper, middle and lower counties of the Sui Dynasty all had Sihu and judicial two Cao, and Qi County had five Cao, such as Judicial Cao, and there was no Sibing Cao. In Jingxian County, there are six Cao, such as Sigong, Sicang, Justice, Siyue, Sishi, and Sihu;
At the county level, the six Cao are all matched, each performing its own duties.
Wang Bo can do a county law, similar to the director of the municipal public security bureau, the position is not low, and the power is not small. It is precisely because he once sat in such an important position that he was implicated and imprisoned in the later infighting in the officialdom of Qi County.
No matter how he later stood on the wrong team and lost his position, when he was in office, he was also in a high position in Qi County, and he was relatively easy to make friends, so both black and white were extremely well-connected.
Qin Qiong was also very uneven when he was young, so he entered the yamen a lot, and it was at that time that he met Facao Wang Bo.
Wang Bo is a good person, he admires Qin Qiong very much, he likes Qin Qiong, a hot-blooded and righteous young man, he has never felt sorry for him, and even protects him from time to time.
For Qin Qiong, Wang Bo and him are also teachers and friends, he takes care of him, and often instructs him in bow and horse martial arts.
"Later, Brother Wang was imprisoned, and I also ran for him with my friends, and finally he was released from prison, but he was unwilling to stay in Licheng anymore and returned to his hometown in Zouping.
"Second brother, I have also heard of Wang Bo's reputation, but I don't dare to lie to you about such things, I am ninety percent sure, Zhishilang is Wang Bo, and Wang Bo is the one who robbed Zhangqiu's grain and people."
"Why did he do that?" Qin Qiong asked.
"I don't know about this, maybe there's something inside this."
"Impossible, why did Brother Wang rob the food of the government, why did he rob the people and ask for ransom? Although he was confiscated of his family wealth after he was imprisoned, he later went out of Cyprus with his friends to do business, and he also accumulated a lot of money, and he is not young now, so there is no reason to do such a thing. ”
Qin Qiong still didn't believe it.
In his eyes, Wang Bo is a bold and righteous person, light on wealth and righteousness, righteous and thin, and he is not a person who values money.
"Second brother must have not seen Wang Dalang for a long time, why don't you go to Zou Ping to see him, maybe you can understand something?" Luo Feng suggested.
He was very sure in his heart that Wang Bo was Zhishilang, but now that Qin Qiong and Wang Bo had this relationship, then the matter couldn't come directly.
"Have you told anyone else about this?"
"Not yet, I originally planned to inquire about Wang Bo's news with you first, and then report the matter to Zhang Juncheng."
Qin Qiong sighed, "Don't tell Zhang Juncheng about this matter for the time being, if you know that Shilang is not Brother Wang, then you may be in a disadvantageous position for him." You don't know, because this Zhishilang not only robbed Zhangqiu's grain and people, but also robbed several counties to send grain and people to the county seat, all asking for ransom, this matter has already provoked Taishou and Juncheng to be angry, especially Zhang Juncheng has placed a heavy reward, looking for clues to Zhishilang, once he finds his traces, he will definitely personally lead troops to exterminate him! ”
"Second brother, you said that if Wang Dalang is really this Zhishilang, what should I do?" Luo Feng asked.
"We'll talk about it then."
Because of Wang Bo's matter, Qin Qiong was a little depressed, and the joy of the two brothers meeting again was also diluted a lot.
Early the next morning, Luo Feng went to the yamen to run an errand first.
With official documents in hand, it is normal to see Zhang Xutuo, the county minister.
A young man in the county town led Luo Feng to the school field in the north of the city, which had been abandoned for a long time, but as soon as Zhang Xutuo arrived, he immediately asked people to reorganize it, and then personally trained the soldiers in the county town, and ordered the counties to transport grain and grass and send the people to the county for training.
The county soldiers who originally existed in name only, but they quickly re-put up the shelves, and now Zhang Xutuo has 12 regiments of Qi County soldiers, each with 200 people.
Each regiment has two brigades, one brigade of 100 people, and two teams.
A team of 50 people has jurisdiction over five groups, each group of 10 people.
Among them, three regiments of county soldiers are stationed in the county town, and nine counties under Qi County, each county is stationed with one regiment.
The soldiers of Qi County are all young and strong men recruited from among the people, and they are all good people, and these people take turns to train in the county.
It is said that the 12th regiment is formed, a total of 2,400 people, but in fact, it is four or five times the number of people who are strong, so that his county soldiers can have 12 regiments all year round.
In addition to training, these county soldiers also have to undertake patrols, catch thieves and other tasks.
When Zhang Xutuo took office, the wind and fire were in full swing, and the school field in the north of the county town was revitalized, and the sound of training was heard every day.
Luo Feng followed the white straight, and was only able to come in after being inspected by most of the guards, and saw all the way that the camp was neat and orderly, and the county soldiers trained in the camp were all wearing uniform blue hakama.
No frolicking, no noise.
Seeing such a scene, Luo Feng secretly admired it in his heart.
It is not easy to set up rules for farmers in a county in a short period of time. Although he Luo Feng does not understand military affairs, he also knows that the most important foundation of an army is discipline.
Only under iron-like discipline can it be possible for these people, who were originally just ordinary people, to quickly coalesce and twist into a rope to form a fighting army.
Although the soldiers of the state and county are only local militia forces, they can still quickly pull up a fight under the hands of Zhang Xutuo, a fierce general on the battlefield.
"Report, Yu Juncheng, Zhangqiu catches Luo Wu and asks to see him."
The white straight boy reported loudly to the review stand.
In the distance, Zhang Xutuo, who was dressed in armor, waved his hand.
When he came closer, Luo Feng found that Zhang Xutuo was wearing a full set of armor, and the whole person looked even more powerful.
"Luo Wulang, meet again, it seems that you have started to be a catcher." Zhang Xutuo stretched out his hand and motioned for him to sit down.
"Luo Wu meets Jun Cheng!"
