Chapter 240: The Order of Linyi

Zhang Chu led people to the east gate of Linyi City, and Linyi Zhixian immediately saw the difference between the people who came. Zhang Chu, like other soldiers of the Security Army www.biquge.info wears a black military uniform, no different from the material to the standard, except that he carries a unique generalissimo epaulette on his shoulder. Of course, the magistrate couldn't understand the rank of the security army, but with his years of experience in officialdom, he judged the difference between Zhang Chu from the people around him and the respectful eyes of Zhang Chu. Don't look at this as a young man in his twenties, maybe he is the key person who can decide everyone's life and death.

"Welcome the king into the city." The magistrate didn't know what to say to Zhang Chu, and he didn't even think about what to call himself, but he couldn't help but speak, so he had to welcome him first. In fact, he also knew that it didn't matter if he liked it or not, the security army would come if he wanted to.

"Who are you?" Zhang Chu looked at the dress of the magistrate and guessed his identity very well.

"The villain is Wang Guobin, the former magistrate of Linyi County, and now he is leading the people of Linyi to surrender to the king." The kingdom of Linyi Zhixian said respectfully to Zhang Chu.

"Don't call me any king, I'm Zhang Chu, the marshal of the security army, you can call me marshal." Zhang Chu is very uncomfortable with being called the king, the king is either the king of the mountain who robs the house, or the old monster who sent some demons to patrol the mountain, in short, he is not a character on the stage.

"It's the big handsome, remember the little one, I'll take you into the city." Wang Guobin was mentally prepared, the person in front of him must be a leader of the security army, but he didn't expect that this young man was Zhang Chu, the commander of the security army, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised in his heart, and spoke more respectfully.

"Wang Guobin, what is your background, you have been here for a few years." Zhang Chu ordered the soldiers to disperse the people who greeted him, and then followed Wang Guobin towards the city, asking as he went.

"I am a Jinshi in the first year of Chongzhen, and it has been four years since I came to Linyi." Wang Guobin was not happy when he mentioned the title of the gold list he was proud of, and even hoped that he had not won the award before, so that he was still studying in his hometown, and although his life was hard, there was no danger of losing his head.

Zhang Chu couldn't help but glance at Wang Guobin a few more times, but he didn't expect that this person was still a Jinshi, and this is also the top dozens of students in the national exam. Seeing that Wang Guobin is in his forties, he should have worked hard in the field for many years before high school.

While walking, Wang Guobin introduced the population and geography of Linyi County to Zhang Chu. It seems that he, the magistrate, knows quite well about the situation in the county.

When I came to the county office, I saw that the soldiers of the security army had controlled both inside and outside, and a team leader came over to report to Zhang Chu that all the people in the county government had been controlled and that the county government was safe. Zhang Chu then led people into the county office.

The servants in the county government have all been gathered together and controlled by the security forces, leaving only the family of Wang Guobin, the county magistrate, hiding in the corner of the courtyard, looking at the security guards coming and going with horror. When Zhang Chu and the others came in, they saw that Wang Guobin, who was accompanying him, seemed to see a savior, but he didn't say anything, just nervously observing there, and they didn't understand what the situation was now.

"This is your family?" Zhang Chu saw a large number of men and women in the courtyard in front of the house and asked Wang Guobin. thought that this Wang Guobin could really give birth, and it seemed that there should be no less than 20 people of all ages. This guy should be a grandfather.

"This is my family, please spare them." Wang Guobin became nervous all of a sudden, and all the way over Zhang Chu just asked him about the situation in the county, and didn't say what to do with him, which made him even more nervous, so he had to come forward and beg to save his family first.

"You can't live in this county government, take them to other places to settle first, as for you, you have meritorious service in dedicating the city, you can spare you from dying, if you want, you can take your family and leave Linyi. But you have to think about it, what will happen to you when you go back to the court, not only will you not be able to keep your official position, but it is also difficult to say whether you can keep your head or not. Zhang Chu was really a little worried about Wang Guobin's life. Emperor Chongzhen was still very resolute in killing these low-level petty officials who lost their cities and lands. Not to mention that this Wang Guobin has another charge of being a thief, which basically has no way to live.

"Please save me." Wang Guobin is still familiar with the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty and knows what he will face.

"If you want to live, you can change your name and work here with me, but this place doesn't have the same life as before." Zhang Chu still hopes that Wang Guobin will stay, there are many bad people among the readers, and they must surpass the people who have not read in proportion, but they must have mastered the tool of writing and a certain amount of knowledge, and it is a pity not to use it. As an otaku, Zhang Chu didn't think about so many problems before, but when he had his own territory and a population of hundreds of thousands under his governance, he found that a problem that had to be solved was in front of him, whether to rely on the poor people at the bottom to manage, or to rely on scholars and some so-called social elites to govern, so far Zhang Chu has no definite answer.

"I stay, willing to serve the commander." In the face of life and death, Wang Guobin chose life first, and as for how long he can live, it depends on Zhang Chu's strength. Zhang Chu even defeated the hundreds of thousands of officers and troops led by the governor of the three sides, and this life should have been a long time. And the crime of being a thief is already confirmed, so I don't care about adding one more article to do things for the thief.

"Okay, then you are still working in Linyi, but you have to remember that the rules of the security army are completely different from those of the Ming Dynasty, I will send someone to be the magistrate of Linyi, and you will be the deputy to assist him, and at the same time, you must also carefully study the rules of the security army, and don't lose your life because of old habits." Zhang Chu patiently admonished.

"Good! Good. I will do what the security forces do. "Although he suddenly changed from an arbitrary county lord to someone else's deputy, as long as his life was saved at this time, it was a happy thing.

Zhang Chu's expedition was to occupy Yuncheng and hold on for a long time, so he not only brought a large number of troops, but also transferred many administrative personnel from all over Zhongyang to accompany him. After the occupation of Linyi, Zhang Chu immediately transferred these people and set up a new government agency. Although the new organization retained a large number of personnel from the old yamen, its functions and methods were very different.

The people of Linyi soon discovered the difference under the management of the security forces. The first to appear on the streets were the security forces to maintain order. They walked in the streets and alleys of Linyi in groups, and in front of the team were led by officials from the former county government, and when they found that there were suspicious people on the street, they immediately stepped forward to investigate. There are street gangsters who bully the market and make trouble for no reason on the street and beat them with wooden sticks in their hands, and there are not a few street gangsters who break their legs and break their ribs, and it is even more common to break their heads and bleed.

Some old scholars in the city couldn't help but shake their heads secretly, this thief is still a thief, and he doesn't understand the teachings of saints at all, how can there be a reason to beat people on the street.

However, under the chaos of the security army, Linyi City was also quiet, and there were even fewer people quarreling in the market. The patrolling security guards were happy to walk around the city with sticks every day, and rarely harassed the lives of the people. The people went from initial fear to habituation. The people finally understood that the stick was only aimed at those who wanted to do bad things, and that the people who had been in peace were far from being beaten with the stick.
