As soon as Li Ge and the two left, only the people brought by Qin Feng and Liao Hui, the guard of Zhengyang County, were left in the house, Qin Feng waved his hand, and most of the people retreated, and in the house, only Wang Hou, Ma Monkey, Tian Zhen and Liao Hui and other Liao Liao people remained. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Qin Feng looked up at the roof, thoughtfully, Wang Hou lowered his head and flicked the tea powder with the lid of the cup, the corners of his mouth smiled, the horse monkey absentmindedly played with a knife in his hand, looking like he had nothing to do with himself, but Tian Zhen looked at Liao Hui with a serious face.

Liao Hui's sweat suddenly fell. His body trembled a little, his legs were weak, and he knelt down in front of Qin Feng with a bang.

"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty!"

Qin Feng lowered his head to look at him, but he didn't let him get up, stared at him for a long time, and said lightly: "I was indeed guilty before, but fortunately, it is not too late for you to realize it. ”

"The minister must be guilty of meritorious service." Liao Hui kowtowed repeatedly.

Qin Feng took a deep breath: "The matter of Zhengyang County is more complicated than I imagined, the family holds power and forms a party for personal gain, it is really shocking, the imperial court decree, when it reaches the government, it will sink into the sea, and it can no longer be implemented, it seems that it must be thoroughly cleaned to eradicate this cancer." ”

"The guilty minister must attach his wings to His Majesty's horsetail, but His Majesty's horse is the head." Liao Hui just kowtowed.

"Liao Hui, whether you really want to serve the imperial court or are forced by the form, you can be regarded as saving your Liao family, hum, as for the Li Ge family, don't blame me for being ruthless." Qin Feng sneered: "I have given them a chance, if they honestly obey the dispatch of the imperial court and obey the imperial decrees after returning to the Ming Dynasty, then no one will touch them, but they think that it is still the same as before, and they want to occupy one side and become a soil emperor as they did during the reign of Qianyue, which is a self-defeating road." ”

"Your Majesty is absolutely right." Liao Hui sweated and fell to the ground, and in a moment, a large piece of wet water was in front of him.

"Promotion and wealth, people's common feelings, follow the right path, abide by the law, can still be wealthy, Shayang five families, is an example, their previous strength, compared to your Zhengyang Haoqiang, but far behind, but now, they are attached to the tail of the court, dedicated to the court, of course, the court also has rich returns, now the reputation of the Shayang five families in the world, how can Zhengyang these local tyrants compare? If there is a good example, where do you not follow it, but you want to take the crooked door and ramp, isn't it a self-defeating road? Qin Feng looked at Liao Hui and chuckled: "Liao Hui, you have lost your way and returned, and in the future, the Liao family will definitely carry forward in your hands." ”

"Everything is a gift from His Majesty." Liao Hui nodded repeatedly.

"You'll have to work on your own." Qin Feng waved his hand, "Get up and speak, now Li Ge, these two crazy guys, how far have they come?" You should know that. ”

"Yes." Liao Hui got up from the ground, lowered his head and said: "Now it's not just food, they have started to smuggle steel and weapons to Fuyuan, because of these things, the price is higher over there." ”

"What about you? Can they still trust you as much as they used to? After all, it's a head-killing business. Qin Feng asked.

"Back to Your Majesty's words, in order to trap the ministers, they let the ministers join the business of smuggling grain, and in order not to make them suspicious, the ministers agreed to do it with them after consulting the royal officials." Liao Hui glanced at Wang Hou and saw Wang Hou nodding slightly, so he was relieved.

"During this time, how much grain was smuggled approximately? Steel and weapons? ”

"The grain is the most, since last year, they have smuggled a small amount to Fuyuan to this year, and the amount of smuggling has increased greatly, and it has reached as much as one million stones." Liao Hui said: "These accounts have been kept privately by the ministers, and Your Majesty can check them at any time." ”

Qin Feng said in amazement: "It's only been a long time, and it has already reached such a large amount, and it is really desperate for money." Such a large amount of smuggling out, but the price of grain in Zhengyang County did not fluctuate, and Yuejing City was not affected in the slightest, Wang Ministry, it seems that we still underestimate the strength of Zhengyang County! ”

"Zhengyang is in my Ming Dynasty, it is the largest and most fertile place, Zhengyang's strong heritage is very deep, Your Majesty, this action must be carefully planned, a slight mistake may cause a catastrophe." Wang Houdao.

"Yes, it's intertwined, and it triggers the whole body when you move." Qin Feng was a little heavy, "Fortunately, with such an internal response as Lord Liao, it makes us a little easier." Lord Liao, this matter, even your family is not allowed to disclose, there is a spy of Li Ge'er clan among them, Zhengyang is strong and strong, married to each other, intertwined, and has complex entanglements of interests, except for your absolute trust henchmen who must participate in this operation, they must be kept secret, those people can know these things, and they must be approved by the Eagle's Nest before you can let in the participation. ”

Liao Hui nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, the ministers have been tight-lipped until now, and they don't even know about their wives and children." ”

"In this operation, the county soldiers are the top priority." Qin Feng nodded with satisfaction: "In the early stage, you did a good job of rectifying the county soldiers step by step, but now that you have taken out Li Bo, even if the county soldiers are completely in your hands, their combat effectiveness is obviously not enough to undertake such a heavy task in the future, so we must strengthen our strength in this regard." ”

"Your Majesty, please."

"First of all, the county soldiers will be expanded, and the 3,000 county soldiers will be expanded to 5,000 people, the reason, take Jiang Haokun as an example, in order to prevent war, expand the county soldiers, protect the front grain road, prevent barbarian spies from infiltrating and so on. You just cheated Li Wei once, in the minds of Li Ge and the others, you did this just to strengthen your own strength and have the capital to compete with them, so although you are not happy, you will not be suspicious. "Qin Feng said.

"But the newly recruited soldiers, the combat effectiveness is even more worrying!" Liao Hui thought of the responsibilities that these county soldiers would have to bear in the next big plan, and couldn't help but be a little worried.

Qin Feng smiled but did not speak.

Wang Hou knocked the lid of the cup on the edge of the teacup: "My Liao Junshou, where is your little bit of cleverness?" Those county soldiers are even incomparable to the army under the command of Li Ge and the others, and can they still compete with the barbarians? The focus of His Majesty's words is on the 2,000 newly recruited. ”

Liao Hui suddenly realized: "These two thousand people are not recruits, but transferred from the existing troops?" ”

Qin Feng nodded: "In order to hide people's eyes, these two thousand veterans will be drawn from various departments, and then join the county soldiers in the name of recruits, and the generals of various departments of the imperial court cannot participate, but I have prepared a general for you, probably when these veterans arrive, this person will also arrive in Zhengyang County, didn't you just drive away that Li Bo?" After this man arrived, he became the deputy commander of the county soldiers, of course, in terms of combat, you should listen to him, just be a good logistics steward for him. ”

"I understand." Liao Hui nodded, but he muttered a little in his heart, the generals in the court can't command, so who will this person be designated by His Majesty? It is certainly not an unknown person, otherwise how could His Majesty be willing to hand over such a heavy burden to others?

"In order to make up for the lack of strength in Zhengyang County, the Eagle Falcon of the Eagle's Nest will arrive in Zhengyang County in various names in the near future, and before the war breaks out, they will assist Liao County to guard you to clean up the people of Li Ge'er clan in the city, and after the cleanup is completed, these people can also assemble into an army. General Tian, how many people can Eagle Falcon be transferred to Zhengyang County this time? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, there are a total of five hundred people who can concentrate the Eagle Falcon in Zhengyang County, and of course these five hundred people are veterans. Some of them are now in place, lurking around some important people of the Li Ge Er clan, and the worst can meet these people at any time. Tian Kang smiled and said: "When the time comes, with just one order, the important people of Li Ge'er clan in the city will disappear as soon as possible." ”

"There are still a few months to arrange, we must be fine and fine, I don't want to entangle with the barbarians, I just want to finish the battle and remove this hidden danger in one fell swoop." Qin Feng said: "At the beginning, the four counties of the Northland were surrounded and not fought, firstly, because the country's financial resources were not sustained, secondly, the soldiers were tired after many years of fighting, and thirdly, I also had the intention of training the soldiers, and used the barbarians to practice their hands, hehe, I didn't expect that in the end, I actually caught the two big fish of Li Weige Township, which is not bad, and the matter of Zhengyang County can be solved together." After this battle, Zhengyang County was the sea and the river was clear, and the imperial court decree was unimpeded and made greater contributions to the Ming Kingdom. ”

"After all, the war will continue to Zhengyang County, and after this battle, Zhengyang County will still suffer large losses." Wang Hou sighed and said: "Li Ge and the others, the lard is blinded, isn't it good to be honest?" ”

"If there is gain, there will be loss, we can't think of good things, as long as this battle is resolved as soon as possible, then Zhengyang's losses can be minimized. When the time comes, there will be local officials like Lord Liao who will come out to appease the people and restore the situation, and it won't be long before Zhengyang County will return to its pre-war state. ”

Hearing Qin Feng's words, Liao Hui fell a big stone in his heart, no matter what, His Majesty has not planned to cross the river and tear down the bridge, after this battle, he can still play a role, as long as the credit is big enough, he can atone for his previous sins.

"Your Majesty, it's just that I still have a doubt, how could Your Majesty expect that Li Ge and the others would eventually collude with the barbarians, open the defense line, and let the barbarians drive straight in?"

The horse monkey sneered: "This is not simple, they smuggled such things with the barbarians, this is ready-made evidence, dare not listen to the barbarians, will they live long?" The barbarian only had to threaten the evidence slightly, and the two dogs would inevitably obey. ”

"It's not all!" Qin Feng frowned, "What I'm most worried about now is that the Qin people will also make trouble!" ”
