Chapter 87 Liu Yi complained

Chang'an is turbulent, and the turmoil in Lingnan is even more treacherous than Chang'an.

After all, everything in Chang'an is just in the dark, and now in Lingnan, it is killing people on the street in broad daylight, and no one dares to care - in fact, it is not that no one dares to care, but there is really powerlessness, some remote counties in Lingnan, there are only a dozen arrests and more than 100 officers and soldiers patrolling the city, and such a configuration can only be pretended.

But what about the murderers? There were more than 100 men on either side, all of them well-armed, well-trained, and combat-ready compared to the patrol officers and men who were just messing around.

In such an obvious contrast, there is only one task left for the patrol officers and soldiers or to capture the fast, that is, to wait for the two sides to merge and then come to the scene to collect the body.

"Your Highness, I've been suffocated to death these days." Liu Yi traveled thousands of miles to cross the state, and complained in front of Li Zhen with a bitter face: "In just over a month, the mountain goods factory I established was robbed three times, the treasury was burned twice, and even the only two streets in the county were smashed several times. I myself was almost injured by mistake twice, and Zheng Yuan was injured in a conflict, and he is still sick in bed...... Your Highness, this matter can't be endured any longer, and if we endure it any longer, we may really have to die in office for no apparent reason. You've got to get me a solution, or I'm really going to have to pick and choose. ”

Liu Yi as the county commander of Zhenyang County, Zhenyang County is located in the north of Yuezhou, almost connected to Shaozhou, deep in the mountains, is a first-class remote place, the people are fierce, do not obey discipline, typical poor mountains and bad water out of the people.

However, since Liu Yi served as the commander of Zhenyang County, he destroyed all the bandits and barbarians in the territory, and the family was strong, and the atmosphere in Zhenyang County has changed greatly.

Internally, he also established various mountain goods processing factories, recruited workers to process various mountain goods, and transported them to Yuezhou through waterways for sale, making a lot of profits. For a time, Zhenyang County actually appeared as a prelude to great governance.

However, the good times did not last long, seeing that the living conditions in Zhenyang were getting better and better, and the people gradually had smiles on their faces, Liu Yi was preparing to work harder to build more factories and push the living standards of Zhenyang one step further, reaching the middle county (the Tang Dynasty evaluated the level of a county, not only to comment on the population, but also to pay taxes, if the number of people is enough but the taxes cannot be paid, it will also not reach the corresponding level, and if the taxes are enough, the population is not so important), Li Zhen has a moth on his side.

In order to paralyze the major forces, let them rest assured and seize control of Silver Island, the entire Lingnan army was transferred to other places by him, which also caused the void of Lingnan's defense.

Those forces that had long coveted the wealth of Zhenyang immediately ordered those bandits and bandits to invade Zhenyang. Of course, Liu Yi was unwilling to let the fruits of his labor be robbed, but he was powerless, with such a small garrison in Zhenyang County, it was impossible for him to be the opponent of the bandits, coupled with Li Zhen's order, he could only watch the bandits rob Zhenyang County again and again.

"Don't worry, don't worry, have a cup of tea first, you speak slowly." Li Zhen smiled and handed him a cup of tea, Liu Yi was not the first person to complain to himself, he had long been used to it.

"Which side of the shots are you?"

"Suck!"

Liu Yi took a sip of tea, sighed and said: "If only I knew which side of the shot, I just didn't know which side of the shot, so I came to you-Your Highness, this matter really can't be endured anymore, don't you know how hateful the thieves are now, they dare to run to the county seat to move knives in broad daylight, just the people were injured by mistake, do you know how many?" This is just the people, if we continue to indulge, they should kill the officials and rebel. ”

"You don't have to worry about that, they don't have the guts yet." Li Zhen smiled: "At least before the ownership of Yindao is clear, they don't have the courage to kill officials, and after the ownership of Yindao is implemented, do you think they still have the ability to cause trouble to Lingnan again?" ”

"But I'm afraid that in the end, they will kill the red eye, and they won't care about anything." Liu Yi's slightly green face couldn't help but show a little worry: "Now they have not only mobilized the elite, but also the bandits under their control are also active everywhere. And I am also worried about another thing, before I came in just now, I also had an exchange with Liu Huizheng, the commander of Panyu County, who was also suffering from thieves and chaos, and this was the case in other counties.

That is to say, the bandits in the entire Yuezhou have been dispersed, even if the major forces fight to defeat in the end, there are bandits in various places who can attack the county at any time, and we want to punish them, they can also make chaos everywhere at any time. Even if a common man dies, it will be more than worth the loss for us. ”

"You're a little bit wrong." Li Zhen stretched out a finger and corrected: "There are no bandits in Yuezhou anymore, because of my plan to suppress bandits, the bandits in Yuezhou have already been wiped out." Now these bandits who are making trouble are actually because they can't bear our encirclement and suppression, and they have come from all over Lingnan - and this is also one of my plans, that is, to dilute the number of bandits in Lingnan as a whole. ”

"Dilution? His Highness means. ”

"In the past, Lingnan was full of bandits, as long as you find a random mountain, you can see the traces of bandits, the density is extremely high, even the rarest place, within a hundred miles, there are at least three bandit dens, what does this mean, do you understand?"

Without giving Liu Yi a chance to answer, Li Zhen continued: "This means that as long as these bandits want to make trouble, as long as the forces behind them want chaos in Lingnan, the whole Lingnan will be chaotic in an instant, and we don't even have a chance to react in the face of such chaos."

But now it is different, and my anti-bandit team has gone to various parts of Lingnan to eliminate bandits. Among them, Yuezhou and the adjacent Wuzhou have been cleared, and the bandit army has also been drawn to other places. In other words, there has been a power vacuum in these two places, and the major forces that have noticed my purpose, do you think they will relocate the bandits under their control to these two places? ”

"Absolutely." Liu Yi said without hesitation: "Your Highness, your attitude now is very clear, that is, you are ready to exterminate all bandits in all states and counties in Lingnan, that is to say, the bandits in these places will sooner or later compete with Your Highness's army of bandits, and with the quality of bandits, how can they be the opponents of the bandit suppression army?" In order to ensure their own safety, they will definitely move - but there are only two trouser lines that can hide from our soldiers, one is outside Lingnan, and the other is to find a vacuum of power to live in. ”
