"It's really you! Do you really want to bring us down the water thieves? Jiang Qin was overjoyed when he heard that Lu An did not deny his identity, and his tone was vaguely incredulous.

"I'm newly appointed, it's a time when there is a shortage of manpower, with your ability, if you come over, I can make you a meritorious officer!" Lu An chuckled. He hasn't officially taken office yet, and now he doesn't even have a trustworthy person under his hands, even if he has a little ability, he will reuse it, not to mention a historical general like Jiang Qin who has reached the level of a second-rate famous general.

"Thank you, General, uh! Thank you, Lord! Jiang Qin is willing to be a pawn under the lord's men! Jiang Qin immediately bowed his head and bowed. Who is willing to be a water thief if there is an official, not to mention that it is a world-famous hero like Lu An who personally surrenders, which makes Jiang Qin feel more face-saving.

"Hahahahaha! Get up! You go back to Wuling with me, I will make you a thief Cao Peng, but we have a word first, if you submit to me, you will not be able to do this thing of robbing the house in the future! Lu An let out a long laugh, helped him up, and then warned him.

"Please rest assured! If I become an official soldier, I will have a regular career! Naturally, it won't be fooled around like before! Saying that, Jiang Qin scratched his head again, and said with some embarrassment: "Lord, I still have something to ask for!" ”

"Say!"

"These brothers of mine are all from poor families, and they really don't have anything to eat, so they follow me to mix this bloody business, but we also have morality, only rob the rich businessmen, not the people! Therefore, I beg my lord, can you help my brothers find a job to do, it is better than doing this lifeless thing every day! Jiang Qin turned his head to look at the water thieves not far from him, gritted his teeth and spoke. Although it was a bit unreasonable to make a request knowing that he had just taken refuge, since he had come out to mix, he had to be righteous, and he couldn't go to be an official and soldier as the boss himself, and then ignore the brothers.

"Oh? Is that all these people are? Hearing this, Lu An looked at the water thieves around him playfully, these people are all extraordinary in nature, and they are all powerful, otherwise they would not be able to do the promising profession of water thieves, but in other words, if they can recruit them, as long as they are trained a little, they are an elite army that is good at water warfare.

"Huh! This is only a part, there are still more than 1,000 people who are still in the village today and have not come out, and my eldest brother is in charge! Jiang Qin scratched his head and said with some embarrassment.

"You still have a big brother?" Lu An was a little surprised.

"Eh, it's my brother, called Zhou Tai, he's much more powerful than me! If the lord doesn't dislike it, I'll let my eldest brother surrender too!" He must be very happy to be an official soldier! Jiang Qin rubbed his hands and said.

"Zhou Tai?" Lu An read softly, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Jiang Qin, how about I give you a task now?" ”

"My lord, please speak!"

"You don't have to go back to Wuling with me now, I let you take your brothers back now and bring your eldest brother Zhou Tai to return together, and your brothers, if you are willing to come, I can arrange for the regular army of the imperial court under me, and distribute the money every month, and those who come will not refuse!" Lu An Zhengse.

"This, why did the lord trust me so much when he first met? Aren't you afraid I'll run away? Jiang Qin was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned a little red with excitement, and he was actually a little choked up between his words. Over the years, he has been the leader of the water thieves, although his life is okay, there is wine and meat all of a sudden, but he can't see the light after all, like a rat crossing the street, he is despised by others, even his parents in his hometown are implicated by himself, and he is blamed a lot.

"I'm sure you won't want to be a water thief forever!" When Lu An heard this, he chuckled and patted him on the shoulder, without saying much. In this era, being able to be an official means mixing with the emperor's grain, although not to mention how noble, but compared to the thieves that everyone shouts and beats, it is not a little bit stronger, even if it is the most powerful Black Mountain thief Zhang Yan, he is also despised by the world, not to mention that they are water thieves who do not have much climate.

"Thanks to the trust of the lord, I will definitely bring my eldest brother to serve together." Jiang Qin respectfully bowed his head towards Lu An, and said firmly.

"In that case, then go ahead! I will wait for you in Wuling, don't let me down! Lu An smiled, and when he saw that the building boat was gradually driving over, he jumped up and returned to the building boat.

"I will definitely live up to the trust of my lord!" Jiang Qin gave up his hand! Then he turned around and walked away with his own water thieves.

"Sorry! Mr. Fengxiao, I can't be angry for you this time! Lu An walked up to Guo Jia and apologized to him slightly.

"That's why you believe these water thieves will come back?" Guo Jia had just seen the whole process on the boat, and then he couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, I think that although the leader of the water thieves is rough and arrogant in appearance, he has a small heart, and he has some foresight, there is no way out when he is a water thief, and he can't be a lifetime, he is an understanding person, and he will definitely come back!" Lu An nodded, he was quite confident in this. That Jiang Qin has such force, I believe that he is not willing to be a water thief, of course, if he really doesn't know how to lift and doesn't return, then don't blame him for settling accounts after the autumn.

"You're big!" Guo Jia's eyes flashed with a hint of appreciation, this person and the leader of the water thieves only met for the first time, so they dared to let him go, believing that he would bring the soldiers and horses back to serve, such a strength, rare in the world.

"The so-called suspicious people don't need to be used, the employment is not suspicious, and those who want to do great things should be informal! If you can't even do this, how can you have the confidence to let Mr. Fengxiao return to your heart! Lu An put his shoulder on his shoulder and pretended to be affectionate.

"Cut!" Guo Jia shook his shoulders, shook Lu An's shoulders away, and went straight back to the cabin alone.

After this episode, there was no other turmoil on the way, and Lu An and his party marched on the river for ten days, and finally arrived at the end of the trip, arriving at Linyuan County, the seat of Wuling County.

"Meet Taishou-sama!"

Hearing that the new Taishou was coming, not only Linyuan, but also the other eleven counties under the rule of Wuling also sent officials out to greet them, and they lined up in a mighty line at the gate of the city!

"Come in with me! What does it look like to be blocked at the gates of this city! It's all hindering people from traveling! Seeing that this series of officials blocked the gate of the city, Lu An frowned and said unceremoniously. This time he came with troops, it can be said that he has no fear, who knows what kind of virtue these officials are, they still have to observe it carefully, and quickly establish their prestige.
