Chapter 15: Wrapping Up
In the room, there was a strange silence, and the door of the bedroom had been kicked and broken, but seeing Meng Hu's burly body blocked at the door, like an angry tiger, staring at him fiercely, Sen Ran said: "The surname Qiu, Meng Hu's head is here, if you have the ability, you can get it now." ”
"Brother Zhao Xian, what does this mean!?" Qiu Chi's face changed greatly, and he subconsciously took two steps back, turning his head to look at Ye Zhao.
But he saw Ye Zhao kneeling on the seat as if he had a whole time, smiled and took a sip of tea: "This tea soup is really not ordinary unpleasant." ”
"Zhao Ye, you dare to calculate against me!?" Qiu Chi looked at Ye Zhao and said sharply.
"Calculation? Sort of. Ye Zhao nodded.
"This is my inn! You can't get out! Qiu Chi said sharply.
"I know this is your inn, but it's all about the ...... in your inn Man, I really don't know where your confidence comes from? Ye Zhao looked at Qiu Chi, shook his head and laughed.
"Someone!" Qiu Chi's face changed, and he said sharply.
The main door of the room was opened, and when he saw the shopkeeper of the inn following Gao Sheng in, he glanced at Qiu Chi with some fear, and finally arched his hand towards Ye Zhaoyi and said, "My lord, the inn has been controlled." ”
"Luo Jing, you are such a big dog!" Qiu Chi's eyes were a little red, his own people were rebelled, and he didn't even realize it.
"I've lived in this inn for half a month, you don't think I'm just a lot of money and have nowhere to spend it, right?" Ye Zhao stood up, patted Qiu Chi on the shoulder and said, "In comparison, I still prefer the resources in your hands, ninety percent of Ma Cheng's wealth, after being sucked by Guo Cheng for so many years, it's time to replace people." ”
"Since you know that I am a person who is too guarded, you should know that even if you arrest me, you can't take those things, besides, I still have six hundred gangs under my hands, eight hundred Karasuma people, just with the two hundred rabble in your hands that have just gathered, I'm afraid it will be ......" Qiu Chi gritted his teeth and said.
"No, I'll take it, as for those people under you, Brother Qiu thinks, are those people thirty miles away from the city elite?" Ye Zhao smiled: "If you are surprised, what do you think will be the chance of winning?" ”
"You...... Collusion with Ye Zhao!? Qiu Chi looked at Ye Zhao speechless in shock, as if to confirm Ye Zhao's words, and there were already bursts of chaotic fighting sounds outside.
"Don't worry, I'll deal with those Karasuma people first, eight hundred Karasuma, it's not a small number, these people, get rid of it first, as for your group of rabble...... Ye Zhao turned his head to look at Meng Hu: "What else do you have to say now?" ”
"Meng Hu, see the lord!" Meng Hu took a deep breath and knelt down towards Ye Zhao and bowed.
"Lord...... Lord? Qiu Chi frowned and looked at Ye Zhao.
"The lord of my family is the magistrate of Macheng County and the lieutenant of the cavalry, and Ye Zhao of Hanoi is it!" Gao Sheng pushed Qiu Chi to the ground and sneered: "You are really funny, my lord, how can you collude with yourself?" ”
"Ye Zhao, Zhao Ye ......" Qiu Chi couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, looking at Ye Zhao, the smile on his face was a little bitter, and he shook his head and said: "I should have thought of it a long time ago, but County Magistrate Ye did not hesitate to go deep into the tiger's den, and Qiu admired this courage." ”
"Think too highly of yourself, Tiger's Den?" Ye Zhao shook his head, ignored him, turned his head to look at Meng Hu and said: "Take your people, cooperate with Guan Hai, subdue the forces under Qiu Chi, send people to block the city gate, and prohibit anyone from entering or leaving until the chaos in the city subsides." ”
"Whoa!" Meng Hu nodded, glanced at Qiu Chi coldly, turned around and left.
Qiu Chi sat down on the ground weakly, he knew that the forces he had managed in this horse city for many years were completely finished, with Meng Hu's help, his subordinates did not sit in charge by themselves, how to resist, Qiu Chi even had no doubt that the vast majority of his subordinates would surrender without hesitation, as for loyalty...... Qiu Chi didn't think that those people were just gathered together because of money, as long as Ye Zhao was willing to let them continue to live and give them more sweetness, those people would not hesitate to betray themselves.
"Looks like you're prepared." Looking at Ye Zhao, Qiu Chi could understand the horror of this person at this moment, and they had unconsciously and quietly pulled up such a big force in this horse city, and now that Meng Hu had taken refuge, those under him were gone, and I am afraid that they would soon be subdued, as for the Karasuma people...... Qiu Chi didn't think much of it.
"This official does not fight a battle that is uncertain." Ye Zhao smiled: "If you want to blame yourself, blame yourself for being too light on the enemy, from the beginning of Gao Liucheng's impatient Guo Cheng wanted to drive me to Macheng, I knew that this Macheng might not be so easy to enter, and then after my subordinates were attacked, Guo Cheng urged me to go to work as soon as possible several times, even if he wanted my life, it was too urgent." ”
"I see." Qiu Chi smiled bitterly: "Then I don't know what the adults are going to do with me?" ”
"There is a shortage of scribes under this official now, if you want, you can stay." Ye Zhao stretched his legs out and knelt down in this way, which was really not very comfortable.
"Aren't you afraid that I will betray you?" Qiu Chi raised his head and looked at Ye Zhao.
"Why rebel?" Ye Zhao looked at Qiu Chi curiously: "In terms of family background and connections, this official is no worse than that Guo Cheng, in terms of rights, although he is too guarded, but in this Macheng, the imperial court has already allowed me the right to be autonomous, and there is a school of military power in hand, in terms of talent, hehe, I don't underestimate him, Mr. Qiu thinks, Guo Quan, this person, is worthy of being my enemy?" ”
Qiu Chi didn't speak, frowning and looking at Ye Zhao.
"The position of the county leader, think about it, I will not pursue the family assets you have accumulated over the years, and serve me well in the future, Ye will not treat his own people badly, Guo Cheng gave you just a little wealth, what I can give you is what he can never give you." Ye Zhao patted him on the shoulder and stood up.
"Late ...... Thank you, Lord. When Qiu Chi heard this, he knelt on the ground with a wry smile and kowtowed to Ye Zhao, the position of the county is not high, but Qiu Chi has served under Guo Cheng for many years, but he is still a trader, even the small officials have never let him do it, wealth is sometimes really not as important as status, Qiu Chi knows very well that this is Ye Zhao now has no one available at hand, so he will be allowed to serve as the county leader, once this opportunity is missed, after Ye Zhao has completely established a foothold in this horse city, there are many poor disciples who are willing to be used by Ye Zhao in this generation of counties.
"I like to work with smart people." Ye Zhao looked at Qiu Chi with satisfaction, although he was not loyal, but before he had enough benefits, this kind of person was the most unlikely to betray.
"I don't know what the lord wants to do with that Agul?" Qiu Chi asked.
"What do you think?" Ye Zhao didn't answer, but asked rhetorically.
"Back to the lord, my subordinates think that this person should not be moved lightly." Qiu Chi bowed and said.
Ye Zhao nodded, did not speak, Qiu Chi bowed down and said: "Selling war horses is one of the main interests of my horse city, if this person is driven away, in a short period of time, it will be difficult for us to find a tribe like the Aguli tribe that can sell our war horses in large quantities, as for the human trade, ......"
Qiu Chi looked up at Ye Zhao, a little unsure of what Ye Zhao meant, after all, according to Han law, human trafficking is expressly prohibited.
"The human trafficking continues, but the way it is traded has to be changed." Ye Zhao thought silently.
"Please make it clear." Qiu Chi hurriedly bowed and said.
"First, the Han people on the grassland, as long as they have it in their hands, no matter how much, we want it, of course, the price cannot be set by them." Ye Zhao stretched out two fingers and said, "Second, on the grassland, no matter which tribe, women, children who are no more than three feet tall, as long as he dares to sell them, we dare to accept them." ”
Qiu Chi waited for a while, and after seeing that Ye Zhao didn't add anything, he nodded slowly and said, "Those people from Karasuma ......"
"Keep fighting." Ye Zhao turned his head to look at Qiu Chi: "A horse city, there are more than a thousand Karasuma soldiers, doesn't Mr. Qiu think it's too much?" ”
"My subordinates know." Qiu Chi's heart was cold, although he didn't treat the Karasuma people very well before, but with just one sentence, hundreds of heads fell to the ground, and the methods of his new lord were really not ordinary ruthless.
Seeing that Ye Zhao had no other instructions, Qiu Chi immediately bowed down and retreated.
Last night, Ding Li quietly entered the city with his men and horses under the response of Gao Sheng and Guan Hai, leaving only an empty camp outside the city, and as soon as he got Ye Zhao's order the next day, he immediately took the elite to kill the Karasuma people's place, and the Karasuma people who were caught off guard were killed in a hurry, and when they wanted to get out of the city, the city had been sealed by Meng Hu with people, and the eight hundred Wuhuan people were wiped out after an hour of melee, and when Aguli got the news, the body had been dragged out of the city and buried.
Qiu Chi's forces were also successfully received by Ye Zhao, since he took office here, he naturally did not allow any more forces beyond his control, Qiu Chi was named a county official by Ye Zhao, and Meng Hu was also made a warehouse official by Ye Zhao, as for the people under the command of the two, Ye Zhao selected some to join the army, and the others were sent to all walks of life in Macheng, and as for some other small gangs in the city, they were all dismissed by Ye Zhao.
"My lord, then Aguli led people to ask for a meeting outside the door." The next day, Ye Zhao officially moved into the county office, and before he could clean up, Qiu Chi hurriedly ran in and said to Ye Zhao.
"Oh?" Ye Zhao didn't have any surprise when he heard this, yesterday day, in order to rectify the forces in the city, the city gate was not opened, Aguli had the heart to rescue, but a group of Wuhuan cavalry, even if the city of Macheng was in tatters, it was difficult to attack it, but I didn't expect that as soon as the city gate was opened today, the other party was impatient to come in.
"Bring him in, Guan Hai, you come with me, if his people dare to mess around, Aguli doesn't have to kill him, but whoever moves under his command will kill him." A touch of coldness flashed in Ye Zhao's eyes.
"Whoa!" Guan Hai agreed and left with Qiu Chi.
