Chapter 194: Entering Runan

If it weren't for the fact that in recent years, the Yellow Turban Gepi thieves in Runan County, He Yi and He Man, and the three thieves Liu Bi, Huang Shao, and Gong Du in Sangshan County, continued to initiate chaos, making it difficult for Runan County to live in peace in recent years. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoHundreds of thousands of people and scholars left Runan to take refuge in Yangzhou and other prefectures and counties, how could Runan County fall from the most populous county to the second.

Now that General Han Fuguo, who is powerful in the northern Xinjiang, has taken the post of Taishou in Runan, the Yellow Turban thieves will be frightened, and the county in Runan can also have a good life.

When 20,000 elite troops in iron armor came from Yinqiang County in the north, the people of Zhaoling County were shocked, and they were all silent and shocked. After a long time after the army, the people of Zhaoling County ran around with infinite joy. General Han Fuguo led the 20,000 male army to take up the post of Taishou of Runan, and whoever dared to cause chaos in a county in Runan would be in peace.

Zhen Yi stood on the city gate in frustration and looked at Han Yi's army passing by, Han Yi had no intention of entering Zhaoling County. He only led more than 100 horsemen to the direction of Jishi Township in the north of the city, which was the location of Han Yi's former Jishi Township Marquis Mansion, and would become Zhaoling Houfu in the future.

Zhen Yi originally wanted to greet Han Yi with a strong posture and show Han Yi what a strong order is. I didn't want Han Yi to take my Zhaoling County Order in my eyes at all, which made Zhen Yi feel uncomfortable.

I think that Han Yi was just a dispensable little person in Zhen Yi's eyes back then. At this time, Zhen Yi has also become a dispensable little person in Han Yi's eyes, this huge change is only between three or four years, how can Zhen Yi be willing.

In a fit of anger and urgency, Zhen Yi suddenly spit out another mouthful of blood, and his whole body was lighter. Zhen Yi snorted coldly, since you Han Yi don't put this official in his eyes, this official wants to come to you and get in the way. After thinking about it, he let people drive out of the city and go straight to Jishi Township in the north of the city.

Han Yi took Han Bin and his newborn daughter Han Tong and child Han Fan, under the guidance of Qiu Gong, Lu Ping, and Gao District, and returned to the Hou Mansion where he had never returned after he had built it.

Houfu was built in Xingshuwang Village, Jishi Township, and the gate of the mansion is just opposite to the thousand-year-old Xingshuwang in the village. It's just that the Zhaoling Marquis Mansion is also built like the large and small Wu forts all over Runan, which is of great military use and has a very strong defense ability, but it is not good at all in terms of comfort.

Han Yi frowned and asked, "What?" Is there such a turmoil in Runan County? ”

Lu Ping shook his head and said: "It's just chaos, the two thieves of Gepi and Sangshan have not been exterminated since the first year of Zhongping. They no longer conquered cities as before, but only occupied deep mountains and dense forests, and scattered out to plunder the villagers, making it impossible for the people of the entire Runan County to live in peace at all. The predecessor was too incompetent, the county soldiers were afraid of death, and the people could not get down, so they had to build forts one after another to defend themselves. ”

Qiu Gong also said: "Runan County is east of Jianyang County, and the people are almost living in dire straits. Although the people west of Haiyang County are stronger, they are always worried that the Yellow Turban Moth thieves will come madly and break the peace in the west. ”

Lu Ping said with a smile: "But now it's okay, the master has led 20,000 troops back this time, and the two thieves of Ge Pi and Sangshan will definitely disperse when they hear the wind and turn to him." Runan County will also be cleared. ”

Han Yi nodded and knocked on his head, he was exhausted by the newborn two children these days, and now that he finally came to Runan, he must be better.

Han Yi asked, "How are the Qiu and Zhu families doing now?" ”

The hall was silent, Qiu Gong and Lu Ping looked at each other for a long time, and finally Lu Ping had to bite the bullet and said: "The old man of the Qiu family has been so angry that he has fallen ill since his master was named the Marquis of Ji Shiting, and he strictly ordered the young man of Rui to go to Luoyang City to seek officials. When the master was given the title of Ji Shixiang, the old man Qiu died of illness in a sullen manner. ”

"Dead?" Han Yi looked at Lu Ping in astonishment, and then at Qiu Gong. Seeing that the two of them nodded again and again, they asked again, "What about Brother Rui?" ”

"After returning to his hometown to take care of Old Man Qiu's funeral, after keeping filial piety for half a year, Gongzi Rui sold his family property according to the will and went to Luoyang."

Han Yi was silent, he had been in Luoyang for a long time, and he didn't see Qiu Rui come to look for him, presumably Qiu Qing had a grudge against Qiu Rui and had a will. Han Yi sighed and asked again, "What about the Zhu family?" What about Ning'er and Yan'er? ”

Qiu Gong said with a smile: "The two Qiu and Zhu families have always walked together, and when the old man Qiu passed away, how good can the Zhu family be." When the owner of the Zhu family was still a pavilion marquis, he died of anger. The Zhu family had to go to Luoyang to live earlier. Listening to Gongzi Rui, the eldest prince Ning and the second son of Yan have been worshipping under a famous scholar in Luoyang, and their current studies are quite good. However, Yan Er Gongzi seems to be more fond of martial arts, although he is only nine years old, he is nearly six feet tall, and his figure is also very strong. ”

Han Yi nodded, it seems that Yan'er's figure is more like his mother. Alas, they are all in Luoyang City, if Dong Zhuojun knows about it, it would not be good to use them to blackmail him. Let's hope they're safe.

Han Yi said: "Since there is no one in Zhaoling City, so be it." The people of the eastern part of Runan are in dire straits, and I, as a county warden, have no intention of living comfortably here. It's better to go to Pingyu City early to take office, and prepare for the suppression of thieves and the people. ”

Qiu Gong asked, "Since the master has returned to Runan, can we go to Pingyu together to serve you?" ”

"Whatever you want, just leave a few people to guard this waiting house."

After a little tidying up, Han Yi took the first step to chase the army, leaving Qiu Gong, Lu Ping, Gao Qu and others to pack up and salute, and escort Han Bin, Han Tong and Han Fan to Pingyu City together. When Zhen Yi arrived at the Zhaoling Marquis Mansion in a carriage slowly, he saw Qiu Gong, Lu Ping, Gao Qu and others going all the way to the east.

Three days later, after some cumbersome etiquette, with the support of all the officials in Runan, Han Yi successfully assumed the post of Runan Taishou.

On the second day, Han Yi dispatched two armies. All the way, Che Jing and Li Feng were the mainstay, and Chu Hu, Mu Shun, Zhong Jin, Zhong Shen, Yang Ke, Wen Ji, Zhao Zhichang and others led 6,000 troops to conquer Gepi thieves; On the other hand, Zhou Ge and Yu Hua were the mainstays, and Yin Li, Deng Dang, Jiao Rong, Zhang Nan, Tai Shici, Zhang Fen, Zhang Sheng and others led 6,000 troops to conquer the Sang bandits.

Most of the generals of these two armies are natives of Runan, and in the early years, they had conquered the Yellow Turban Thieves in Runan, and they were all old opponents, so they didn't need special guides and special adaptation to the climate.

After Han Yi looked at the household registration in Runan County, he was very dissatisfied with Juncheng, Zhu Cao and others, and said: "Runan County has been in turmoil for many years, why is this household registration still the household registration in the Guanghe period?" ”

Runan County said: "Back to the palace, it is precisely because of the turmoil in Runan County that the successive Taishou have no time to deal with the household registration. Because it is settled today, maybe tomorrow the people will be scattered. ”

Han Yi asked, "Then as the official in charge of Runan, how can you know the number of Dingkou and taxes in this county?" ”

Runan County said: "This, there are 37 counties in Runan, and there are 21 counties in the west that still have a fixed number every year, and they can always justify themselves more or less, and the difference is not much." In recent years, the 16 counties in the eastern part of the country have often been in arrears, mostly because thieves are rampant in the county borders, the harvest is insufficient, or there is still a shortage, and they do not pay taxes properly, and they often ask the prefectures and counties for supplies for disaster relief. ”

"Oh?" Han Yi asked, "From what you can see, these sixteen counties are really in such a predicament?" ”

Runan County bowed his head and said nothing, and after Han Yi pondered for a while, he asked again: "Which county in Runan County has the most arrears of money and grain?" ”

Runan County said, "This ...... When Guangluxun Zhao Jun was in Guangluxun, he once asked Haiyang County to pay 10% of the grain produced every year to offset taxes. Since last year, there has been no grain payment in Haiyang County. Because many of the county soldiers were needed to resist the moth thieves, they ignored it. In addition, there are no account books handed over so far this year, so I don't plan to hand them in this year. In this way, it is the most outstanding payment in Haiyang County. ”

"Oh, after the soldiers of Jianyang County begged for thieves, there was a reward in the county?"

"Who said no, every time the soldiers of the county of Snapper are rewarded. Otherwise, who will come to serve? ”

"Is this county magistrate still willing?"

"The magistrate of Gan County has already been promoted, and the order of the county of Snapper County has been Ding Ju Ding Jun since the year before last."

When he first arrived in Chongyang County, Runan County, he was almost driven away by the citizens of Jianyang County because of taxes. Soon after, Ding Ju discovered that as long as he agreed with the tax rate recognized by the people of the county, and did not have any demands from the county people, the county residents could faithfully support him as the county decree and would never cause chaos. If you want to collect miscellaneous taxes on the basis of the second tax, you will be immediately driven away by the citizens of Snapper County, and you will not show mercy.

After Ding Ju grasped this situation, his life in Jianyang County suddenly became much better. It can even be coerced by the soldiers of Haiyang County to go out of the county to beg for thieves, and the payment of taxes can be deferred or even not paid. This allowed Ding Ju to use his hands in it and embezzle the county wealth on a large scale.

In just two years, Ding Ju embezzled 200,000 stone of grain in the county and sold it at a high price to neighboring counties that were short of grain. At the peak, it was sold for 500 yuan a stone, and after deducting expenses, Ding Juke can be said to have made a net income of 60 million yuan. Ding Ju, who was only called a mere 600 stones, smiled from ear to ear, even if a county was too guarded, he couldn't get so much money, and there was almost no public resentment at all.

It's just that from the day Han Yi led the troops into Runan, Ding Ju was a little panicked. With so many strong troops in hand, do you still need the help of the soldiers of Snappy County? If there is no threat of the Runan moth thief, can he still sit in the position of county commander of Jianyang County?

"Report ...... The county gentleman, Han Taishou sent two thousands of troops on the two roads early yesterday morning to conquer the two thieves of Gepi and Sangshan. ”

"Sure enough." Ding Ju couldn't help but wail. Without waiting for Ding Ju to vent the resentment in his heart, someone came to report and said: "The county gentleman, there is an envoy in the county who is here, and the county magistrate is ordered to go to the county immediately to report on his work......
