Chapter 309: Hu Lindai County
"The newcomer is too timid, didn't the long history tell him, the county is heavily guarded, the city walls are thick, and the troops in the north help each other, as long as the beacon fire is lit and the message is passed on, there will be reinforcements coming soon, and there is no need to be so close to the enemy. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
At the gate of Dai County, the soldiers guarding the gate were muttering.
With the departure of the previous Taishou, the entire city has returned to calm, at least on the surface, but even their soldiers know very well that the new Taishou will gradually grasp the situation of the city, whether it is smooth or empty, they will have to go through a game.
However, as soon as one of the soldiers here finished speaking, someone put forward a different opinion.
"I see, the new Taishou's order is actually to fight for power and suppress the people of several major families, so as to grasp the authority, the so-called strengthening of the city defense is just an excuse, and it is not necessarily cowardice."
It was another soldier who was drinking from a wooden cup, and he said with a smile when he put down the cup.
It turned out that when the land area had not left, Chen Zhi issued an order, saying that he should let the lieutenant pay attention to it, gather the soldiers inside and outside the city, and take precautions, and even sent an order to let the people and cloth clothes inside and outside the city go out as much as possible in the past few days, and stay in Wubao and villages.
This is not the end, even the two hundred members of Chen Zhi himself have been mobilized, familiar with the terrain and situation, and arranged the guard situation according to Chen Zhi's training method.
In addition, when Liu Bao introduced the situation in the city, Chen Zhi also specially inquired about the situation of the granary, and personally went over to inspect it, which made the relevant officials and officials very nervous, thinking that Chen Zhi was going to thoroughly investigate the cat, but he didn't expect Chen Zhi to go over, and he didn't delve into it, but just asked how long the grain in the warehouse would last if the city was besieged.
After learning that it could support him for three or four months, he nodded and put his mind at ease.
With this kind of action, many people say that this new Taishou may be because Daixian is located on the border and is afraid of the attack of the Hu people, so regardless of other things, it is a sign of timidity to arrange the city defense first.
Even the guards at the gate talked about it.
The person who spoke first asked with a smile: "Li Tou, you are the oldest, tell me, the new Taishou, do you have the ability?" Can you control the scene? ”
"I can't see this, these officials and masters, they are not something we can see through, they are families, and they are official positions, there are a lot, my old Li can't understand, but I know a little," the soldier holding the cup and being called Li Tou lowered his voice slightly, "The four major families in this city don't like the original Taishou very much." ”
"And this?" The other person was surprised, "Didn't you say that they had a tacit understanding in the past three years, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to spread out this situation." ”
"Hey! You're still young and can't understand the Tao here," Li Tou smiled, he enjoyed the gaze of the soldier on the other side, "Do you know that when Lu Taishou took office, he didn't do anything?" ”
"I know, I didn't have an errand at that time, but my father was a soldier in the city, he said, at that time, there were a few soldiers who relied on their family and the Tang family to get involved, and they made a fuss, and they were caught by the newcomer Lu Taishou, and they were directly taken into prison, and even the Tang family was subjected to the seedlings, and Tang Dian, who was the captain at the time, resigned, and the Tang family has not slowed down until now, and in the past two years, in the four major families, almost all of them are at the bottom."
"Yes, in fact, this is to kill chickens and set an example for monkeys, and it is the three fires of the new official taking office! Not only Lu Taishou is like this, but the same is true of the two Taishou before him, and further forward, although I don't know clearly, but I think it's about the same. Li Tou stroked his beard and said in a tone from a person who came over: "These people who are officials pay attention to one in power, so they must establish authority and make people afraid of him, so as to establish authority, so that people can obey him, our generation of counties, generations of counties, the most face-saving is the four major families of Zhu, Wang, Zheng and Tang, and there is the Liu family, which has also risen up with the support of Lu Taishou in the past two years, and Lu Taishou directly took the Tang family to establish his authority and shocked the other three, so the next governance will be much smoother." ”
"So that's what happened!" The first person understood, and couldn't help but show an expression of admiration, "Then this new Taishou can't catch the sore feet of the four major families, so he wants to use the city defense as an excuse to show his authority?" ”
"You kid is quite clever, you understand the Tao so quickly." Li Tou laughed, and was about to teach the other party some more life experience, but was interrupted by a fast horse galloping in the distance, he followed the sound and looked at a man with a panicked look on the horse.
Rumble!
With the fast horse entering the city, the four gates of Dai County were all shut.
At the same time, a piece of news was also put on the table of the major officials in the city, as well as several family leaders.
"Lu Taishou was besieged by the Huns, the convoy was wiped out, and Taishou didn't know if he was alive or dead?"
When they got the news, Dai Jun was shocked from top to bottom, but before they could really digest the news, another piece of news came that made them even more uneasy.
The cavalry that had besieged and annihilated the convoy in the land area was heading straight for Dai County!
So, all the people in the city who had some strength panicked and gathered in the court.
"This group of people is likely to be the Huns, which is an even more ferocious race than the Xianbei people! Taishou, I must ask for help! ”
In the public court, Zheng Shi, one of the captains, suggested loudly to Chen Zhi, and his expression was a little flustered.
Chen Zhi waved his hand to calm him down, and said: "When I entered Dai County, I had already sent someone to the north to communicate with the general who led the troops in Tuntian, but at that time he replied that he did not dare to act without the order of the general, so I agreed with him that if there were Hu soldiers and horses invading Dai County, he would rush to the aid as soon as possible, and the offenders would be repelled, and I believe that the other side has already set off now." ”
"That's good, that's good!" Zheng Shi was slightly relieved and did his back.
Immediately afterwards, several more officials arrived, and when Gong Cao Shi Lanluo saw this, he stepped out and said: "Taishou, almost all the people who should come have come, if you have anything to say, you can make it clear." "This Gong Cao Shi is responsible for the dethronement, that is, the promotion and promotion of officials, control personnel, quite powerful, and have a very high prestige among officials.
Chen Zhi nodded, his eyes turned, his gaze swept over everyone's bodies, looked at the faces full of panic, doubts and worries, and said calmly: "Since everyone has arrived, then the official will talk about the situation first." ”
It may be that everyone gathered together, giving them confidence, or Chen Zhi's calm expression infected everyone, and the gathered officials could have seen a burst of uneasiness and whispering, but as soon as Chen Zhi spoke, they all stopped and focused on Chen Zhi.
"You all know the current situation, there is a Hu cavalry galloping outside the city, the preliminary judgment is the Hun team, they have annihilated Lu Taishou's convoy, Lu Taishou now lives and dies I don't know, there is news that this cavalry is rushing to Chaodai County, although there is no specific information, but it will probably appear outside the city soon."
Hearing the news about the land area, many people showed signs of concern.
Geng Qing, whose facial features were torn out, couldn't help but say: "This group of Hu people is quite murderous, they are here, I don't know what they have in mind, they must pay attention to it!" We don't have many soldiers and horses in Dai County, so we have to gather them as soon as possible to prevent accidents. ”
Chen Zhi shook his head and said: "Your worries are mainly because of the annihilation of Lu Taishou's convoy, if you put aside this situation, just look at the cavalry itself, in fact, there is no need to worry too much, this does not need to be told to you by this official, you have been an official in Daixian for many years, you have seen more battles than this official, and you have seen more Hu people than this official, and now the situation, you should know very well, as long as you hold the city, we will be undefeated!" ”
Everyone's fear comes mostly from what happened to the former Taishou, if the Taishou is replaced by an ordinary person, or just an ordinary horse team, when the news comes, it is impossible for the county to have such a big reaction, and these officials will not be able to show such a look.
"The soldiers and horses of the Hu people can appear in the hinterland of Daijun without being discovered, indicating that they have detoured the path, and if they can not be discovered by the border guards, it proves that there are a lot of people, and they can quickly annihilate Lu Taishou's convoy, which shows that the combat power is outstanding, because Lu Taishou's family is also an elite drill, so this is an elite cavalry squad with rapid action ability, combat power, and a small number of people, the purpose is to be fast, once this advantage is lost, there is nothing to be afraid of, as long as we hold on to the city, the enemy army will not be supplied, It is also necessary to guard against reinforcements, and it is a disadvantage to have no place to stand. ”
After Chen Zhi's words were finished, the officials looked at each other a few times and let go of their worries.
The county magistrate Shi Liu Bao suddenly remembered something and opened his mouth to speak, but in the end he held back, and asked how to arrange it in the future and how to evacuate the people.
"Hu people have limited manpower, and they are cavalry, the purpose is not to attack the city, and there is no ability to attack the city, this time Bendai County came, nothing more than to intimidate, as long as they hold the city gate, hold on to it, then the thieves will retreat, this time will not be very long, Hu people ride fast horses, will definitely not bring a lot of dry food, and they come around again, and they can still have a record of surprise, since they are exposed, they should worry about how to go back, in fact, they just need to let them think that the reinforcements are coming, and they don't have to work hard at all, they can retreat from the enemy, so that the people can not be affected, Besides, I have already asked people to go to the countryside to give orders, which should have a warning effect. ”
After hearing this, Liu Bao breathed a long sigh of relief, turned to the official and said, "Taishou has arrangements, you can rest assured." ”
As soon as the words fell, a person came in a hurry, shouting as he ran: "Here!" Here it comes! The soldiers and horses of the Hu people had already rushed over, and they were about to reach the city gate, and their shouts could be heard! They, they still carry a head! ”
