Chapter 102: The incident happened suddenly
Cheng Zhong was sitting in an inn in Dangyang County, and his entourage was reporting the situation to him. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Chengzhong asked: "Is the Wang family boy back?" ”
"Dangyang Chang had already returned from Lankou the day before yesterday, and yesterday he was accompanied by Li Mao, Kong Xun and the three elders of various townships to inspect the Dangyang River." The entourage reported, "The county government posted a notice today that another 200 soldiers will be recruited on the 20th of the first lunar month, and displaced people will be recruited in February to continue to rectify the Dangyang River." ”
"It seems that the Wang family kid didn't take the robbery of Lankouju to heart," Cheng Zhong got up and walked to the window to look outside, "If this person completes the remediation of the Dangyang River, there will be tens of thousands of acres of land in Dangyang County." Even if according to this man's previous promise, as long as he joined the army, he would give each soldier ten acres of land, but only four thousand acres were used, and there were still large tracts of land that could be distributed to the landless. In order to keep their own fields and harvests, they will definitely fight to the death with the thieves and bandits who came to plunder, and they still dare to do it in Lvlin Mountain, no wonder some people want to deal with him now. ”
"But this person has been sued by the people twice, when the Yang bandits have not been pacified, and the green forest bandits have been brought in, whether they can keep the position of the head of the Yang is unknown?"
"As long as the Yang bandits don't come out to cause chaos, the Wang family kid will be fine when he becomes the head of the Yang, and the original will of the court is just to let this person pacify the Yang bandits. What's more, the green forest bandits are involved in the three counties, not a county in Dangyang can deal with, if it is transmitted to Chang'an, including Jingzhou Mu, the three counties will be questioned, Nanyang Taishou Sun Pet was appointed as Nanyang Taishou because of the meritorious report of the king of Dongping, I am afraid that it is about to be sealed, and Nanjun Taishou will not be the emperor to be made the prince to contribute, which are all the emperor's cronies. If Wang An is punished but not these two people, what if someone in the center comes out to make trouble? Losing two official positions of 2,000 stone for the sake of a person with 500 stone is more than worth the loss! The matter of the Green Forest Bandits, the Taishou of the Three Counties and the Mu of Jingzhou are afraid that they will not report it to the center, even if someone hands the chapter to Chang'an, in order to save His Majesty's worry, someone will definitely intercept it and not let the emperor know. ”
"The big boss knows so much."
"This was all taught to me by others some time ago, I pondered for a while, and then the boy from the Wang family gave me another lesson. Only then did I realize that if I wanted to survive, I had to know the situation in the DPRK and China. Chengzhong felt a little regretful, he knew that he was late.
"No wonder Nanjun Taishou is about to send a sailor to attack us, and the big boss will come to Dangyang to make friends with the Wang family."
Cheng Zhong sighed, walked back and sat down and said: "Most of the sailors and the water masters are from fishermen, everyone is related to each other, and the two sides often show mercy when they fight, which is also the reason why the water masters are endless, and the officials of the imperial court know it, so the water division formed by Wu Jianglong is not recruited in Nanjun, but from Yizhou and Yangzhou, and the county soldiers who guard Jiangling City are also transferred from the counties of Nanjun in the name of changing defenses, and the original Jiangling soldiers are transferred to the counties, this time it is really going to be done." ”
The entourage comforted: "If you can't defeat the official army, the big guy can still escape to Jiangxia County." In the past, whenever the official army entered the suppression, would the big boss send the brothers' families to Jiangxia? Nanjun couldn't stay anymore and fled to Jiangxia County, and Jiangxia County couldn't stay anymore and returned to Nanjun. ”
"Jiangxia is too shou to be replaced, and now the Taishou is Yin rewarding Yin Zixin, and I have also found out what this person has done. This person has no mercy on thieves, and he has a great reputation in Chang'an, which makes thieves flee when they hear about it. Cheng Zhong turned to look at his entourage, "Do you want to know how this person dealt with the bandits who did evil in Chang'an when he was doing Chang'an Order?" ”
"The big boss also knows that his subordinates grew up by the river, never left Nanjun, and knows very little about the outside world."
"But you dare not say hello, and run to Jiangling to save people privately," "When the first emperor, the thieves and rangers in Chang'an City did not obey the control, and even the court officials dared to kill, so Yin Xian was appointed as the Chang'an Order, after this person arrived, he dug a few large pits that were several feet deep called 'Tiger's Den', and the thieves and rangers who were caught, ten people let go of one person, and the rest were put into the tiger's den, when the number of people in the tiger's den reached one hundred, the cave was sealed with a big stone, and after a few days it was opened, and the inside were all dead, and the family could retrieve the body after a hundred days. This person used this method to kill nearly a thousand people, and the surviving thieves in Chang'an stayed honestly, while those from other places ran back to their respective counties, not daring to covet Chang'an. Are you afraid of encountering such a Taishou? ”
"The big boss is ready to send the brothers' families to Dangyang?"
Cheng nodded his head: "That's right, so I personally came over to discuss with the Wang family boy." ”
"But if there is something about the Green Forest Bandits, this person's position as the head of the sun is only afraid that it will not be guaranteed, right?"
Cheng Zhong smiled: "This person finally saved your sweetheart's life, why do you say that?" Whether or not to keep the official position is a matter for the Wang family, and I just want to keep the brother's family small. ”
"It's not this person who rescued people," Sui whispered from the girl, "it's the person who saved Sun Xiaoniang." ”
"In short, the boy of the Wang family is kind to you," Cheng Zhong looked at his entourage and said, "I am a well-known figure in the court and in the rivers and lakes, even if I surrender to the imperial court, I will definitely deal with it, either exile or confiscation, and these people will be handed over to you in the future." ”
The entourage looked terrified: "Why did the big boss say this?" ”
Cheng Zhong just wanted to speak, but someone outside shouted: "It's a fight, it's a fight." ”
Someone asked, "Who started fighting?" ”
"Are those rangers fighting again?"
"These rangers are going to repair the Dangyang River?"
"No, no," the person who came took a few breaths and said loudly, "It's Sun Xiaoniang and Jiang Tunchang who are fighting at the North City Gate." ”
At this moment, the whole inn was in a sensation, everyone ran out, Chengzhong got up and ran to the window, only to see many people rushing out of the house and rushing to the city gate, so he said to his entourage: "You also go and see." Ask why you did it? ”
At this moment, Wang An, Shi Duan, Dong Xuan and Kong Xun were discussing things in the county government, Wang An stood in front of the map and nodded at Ruoxian: "If the county we can't count on, we used to think that if the county soldiers are strong and strong, the result is just an empty shelf, and it is useless." If the wealthy families in the county have been hooking up with Lulinshan for a long time, if we want to deal with Lulinshan, it is equivalent to flipping their dining table, and these people are going to fight with us. Moreover, if the transaction between the county and the green forest mountain is probably not only involved in the wealthy families of the county, if the officials of the Taishou Mansion cannot be settled, how can the transaction between them last for twenty or thirty years? I am afraid that the wealthy families of Xiangyang and Jiangling are also involved in the transaction with Lulin Mountain. ”
Shi Duan first came out with questions: "But Dangyang County alone can't deal with Green Forest Mountain." ”
"This official doesn't plan to deal with the entire Green Forest Mountain," Wang An looked at Shi Duan, "There is a wrongdoer, and there is a debtor." This official only needs to eradicate this group of bandits surnamed Wang, and deter the rest of the small forces in Lulin Mountain, so that they will not dare to act rashly. ”
Kong Xun said: "But the news that the Wei brothers got from interrogating the captives, the power of the surname Wang is not small, and the number of bandits under his control is more than 3,000 people, I don't know what the county zun has planned?" Can you inform the inferior people? ”
Wang An took out a booklet from his arms and handed it to Shi Duan: "This is the news that others have heard, you can take a look first." You are the people of the trust of the officials, and this is what you can see, but remember that what is written on it is not to be passed on. ”
After the three of them read it, Kong Xun returned the booklet to Wang An and asked, "Is the news credible?" ”
"At present, it is still being verified," Wang An stuffed the booklet into his arms, "and everyone began to arrange it based on the authenticity and credibility of the news." ”
At this time, Tian Dalang reported outside the house: "Qiyu County Zun, Sun Xiaoniang and Jiang Tun Chang are competing at the North City Gate. ”
