**************

Unconsciously, the three years of Zhongping came quietly.

Thanks to Zheng Xuan's huge reputation, the recruitment list prepared by him was posted in the ten counties under the jurisdiction of Yangcheng County for less than a month, and hundreds of talents from all walks of life came to the renovated Tobu City.

The county magistrates of Gaomi and Anqiu counties also went to Dongwu City to meet Taishou Liu Cun after meeting Zheng Xuan, a celebrity in their hometown, and under Liu Cun's hospitality and earnest advice, they expressed their peace of mind and made every effort to repay.

In just two months, Liu Cun's Taishou Mansion included more than 80 talented people from all walks of life with rich administrative experience, most of whom were depressed and unwilling to be the children of poor families.

Liu Cun issued the first order since he took office as the county warden, the "Reclamation Order," in the form of a public announcement, and solemnly promised for the first time that the land would be owned by individuals, and the local government would issue a title deed and be exempt from tax for two years.

The people of the counties, who had long admired Liu Cun's name of benevolence, rejoiced and shouted that the heavens had opened their eyes, and Liu Cun was able to fill in the list of officials and the approximate number of acres of land at the county, county, and township levels before the end of the year, and sent a special person to send them to the imperial court as soon as possible.

To Liu Cun's great satisfaction, under the command of Dongguan County Magistrate Zhao Rong, Dong'an County Lieutenant Yan Shen, and Dongwu County Lieutenant Zhai Yue, his 15,000 soldiers skillfully used tactics such as harassing and provoking the enemy and luring the enemy into depth, and finally in the decisive battle on the 8th of December, they inflicted heavy losses on the 30,000 Yellow Turban Army of Taishan County, which had invaded the nest, and achieved the record of killing more than 4,000 people and capturing more than 7,000 people.

After the war, the interrogation of the prisoners revealed that Zhang Chang, the commander of the Qu Shuai who died in the chaos, was the leader of the Yellow Turban thief Kou Kou who led his troops to rob the caravan and slaughter dozens of guards a few months ago, and the Qu Shuai Zhai Mian, who was shot off his horse by the fierce general Yan Shen and beheaded him, was the culprit who secretly colluded with the Langya Xu family and led more than 2,400 Jiaoshan rogues to attack and slaughter the Wang family and attack Zhushan.

There is a regret in this battle, Taishan Yellow Turban Coach Zhang Rao luckily escaped, led more than 10,000 remnants of the rampant west to hide into the reckless Mount Tai, Zhao Rong and others were limited by the force can not pursue, after the war learned that the general who led more than 10,000 remnants of the successful escape was the famous Yellow Turban general Zhang Rao, Zhao Rong and others regretted, and quickly submitted the detailed battle report to Liu Cun.

Liu Cun, who received the battle report, sighed, and the hatred that had been lingering in his heart dissipated, and he ordered Qin Yi, the chief of the guard, to immediately send the news of revenge back to Zhushan, and held a solemn sacrifice ceremony to comfort the souls of the brothers who had been killed in the past.

After this battle, the Taishan Yellow Turban, which suffered heavy losses, no longer dared to covet the two counties of Dongguan and Dong'an, which were strong and strong, and the eleven counties of Chengyang County have since entered Liu Cun's control, and the hearts of the army and the people have also been completely settled down because of this war.

On the morning of the third day after New Year's Day, Liu Cun, who was in a good mood, arrived in Linzi City, brought rich gifts, and went to the Assassin's Mansion to meet Shangguan Wang Ren.

Liu Cun knows that Wang Ren's ancestral home is Langya, a hundred years ago the whole clan has moved from Langya County to the south of the Wangcheng Kaiyang, the Wang family is a veritable famous family of the Han Dynasty, Wang Ren has been an official of the Han Dynasty for seven generations, three of which are Confucian, two ancestors are doctors and Dasikong, and won the honor of marquis.

What Liu Cun didn't know was that the "lying on the ice and seeking carp" in the twenty-four filial pieties was what Wang Ren's grandson Wang Xiang would do in the future, and the location was on the Chahe River downstream of Yishui under Liu Cun's rule.

Although the Langya Wang family has been distinguished for many generations, it has gradually fallen silent in Wang Ren's generation, and Wang Ren has not been as powerful as before in addition to being quite prestigious in Confucianism, so although Wang Ren is very annoyed by Liu Cun's bad attitude towards the wealthy family, and resents Liu Cun's refusal to reduce the Wang family's land tax and commercial tax, he is really helpless against Liu Cun.

Knowing each other, Liu Cun didn't have any scruples about Wang Ren, but on the surface, he still took the initiative to give gifts with respect for his boss.

Wang Ren saw that Liu Cun brought a rich gift to visit respectfully, and he didn't want to say anything, he, the Qingzhou assassin history, only supervised the place on behalf of the emperor, and only had the right to picket impeachment, no right to dispose of and personnel, and no military power, therefore, not only did he not dare to rectify Liu Cun, but he was afraid of the edict of appointment issued to Liu Cun by Emperor Liu Hong, and was afraid of Liu Cun's reputation and the growing influence of Langya Academy behind him, so he was polite to Liu Cun, but he was only a routine encouragement, and he served tea to the guests.

Leaving the small Thorn History Mansion, Liu Cun was quite annoyed by Wang Ren's arrogance and coldness, but thinking of the Wang clan in Langya County, who was forced by himself to buy wheat land and move his family to Kaiyang Wangcheng, Liu Cun himself was embarrassed and annoyed.

Walking on the cold wind blowing on the desolate Linzi Street, Liu Cun suddenly felt confused, not knowing where to go, what to do, and it seemed that there was something he hadn't done yet.

Seeing this, Qin Yi, the chief of the guard, suggested: "Lord, haven't you read Donglai Taishi Ci several times? ”

Liu Cun patted his head: "I said, I always feel that I forgot something important, go!" Let's go to Huang County! ”

"This is going? There are still 500 miles from here to Huangxian! Qin Yi looked at the two-wheeled custom carriages of the five armies behind him, as well as the twenty-five guards, and felt that the escort strength was insufficient, and he was very embarrassed for a while.

Liu Cun knew what Qin Yi was thinking at a glance: "There are enough people, let Xiao Si and them drive three empty cars to the Chengnan Warehouse, and entrust the caravan to transport the goods and send them back to Dongwu by the way when they return, and then lead a few good horses to chase after us, more than 20 people and two carriages with gifts, and there are horses on the road to change and go faster!" ”

"Yes!" Qin Yi immediately ordered a few brothers to drive the three empty carriages back to the Langya Chamber of Commerce warehouse in the south of the city, and then pick a few more good horses to chase after them slowly.

Liu Cun's mount is a blue-gray horse from the north of the Jizhou Gongsun family, the head of the horse is handsome, open-minded, the four hooves are long and strong, the body is unusually tall, Tian Mu, who is good at horses, once said when he gave the horse to Liu Cun:

"This horse has the bloodline of horses in the Western Regions, the sprint is fast and enduring, and the amount of food is also large, twice that of the average Saibei horse, fortunately, it is not a picky eater, and the lord will take it for the time being!"

Liu Cun took over the horse and quickly liked it, this only four-year-old male blue gray horse, whether it is sprint or endurance, is no worse than the black Eli horse that has been sent to the horse farm to do **, and this horse is very obedient, more and more humane, Liu Cun rode it to practice riding and shooting and practicing guns, feeling better and better, as for the large amount of food, hehe! Liu Cun directly ignored the question.

Qin Yi, who was riding his horse side by side, saw a smile on Liu Cun's face, and asked loudly with joy: "Lord, is that Tai Shi Ci really worthy of being invited by the Lord himself?" ”

Liu Cun didn't know how to answer for a while, thought about it and said to Qin Yi: "Mr. Lu's caravan has inquired clearly for me, Tai Shi Ci is only twenty years old this year, last autumn in the Nanshan Hunt in Huang County, he repeatedly showed his stunt of wearing Yang in a hundred steps, and Lord Cai Boqi, who presided over the hunt, cherished his talent and wanted to grant him a martial position, but he was opposed by all the officials under his door, thinking that many of the children of the big clan are nearly thirty years old and still have an undecided future, and it is not appropriate to requisition the children of the Hanmen Tai Shi Ci, Lord Cai has no choice but to give up, as for whether Tai Shi Ci is superior in martial arts, I don't know, but there's a saying that there is no vanity under fame, and I think it's still exciting. ”

Qin Yi nodded slowly: "It is very unusual to be able to have a stunt of piercing Yang in a hundred steps, at least my subordinates can't do it." ”

Liu Cun Zhengse said: "You have your strengths, your swordsmanship and fighting are very good, Xu Sheng and Zhai Yue can't beat you under the horse, I don't dare to say that I can defeat you, you have made great progress in practicing the art of war, this is the advantage you should carry forward." In fact, for the generals, there is no need to take the lead in fighting bravely, it is the responsibility of the soldiers, and the goal pursued by a qualified general is to be ten thousand enemies. ”

"Thank you, my lord, my subordinates remember!"

Qin Yi every time he listens to Liu Cun's teachings, he has a harvest, and he has made great progress in the past year, if it weren't for his two wives who only gave birth to a daughter for him, so that the old boxer Qin Zhi, who was looking forward to holding his grandson, often thought about it, Liu Cun would have put him down to lead the troops to hone.

"Lord, will Tai Shi Ci obey the Lord's call?" Qin Yi asked suddenly.

Liu Cun also has no confidence in this: "I don't know, I heard that Tai Shici's father died early and his family was poor, but he was very filial to his mother, practiced martial arts every day, was sincere and trustworthy, and constantly improved himself. ”

After a pause, Liu Cun said again: "Donglai County is located in a remote area and the people are simple, and the Quartet has been peaceful for decades, unlike our western Qingzhou, Xuzhou, and Yuzhou bandits, it is estimated that because of this, Donglai Taishou Mansion and the counties under its jurisdiction have not had a permanent army for decades, and the post of county lieutenant is led by Taishou, and there are only two soldiers and 800 soldiers under his command. ”

"Then between the spring and summer of last year, Donglai, Beihai and the Yellow River suffered a big locust plague, I heard that the fish in the rivers and the ** on the mountains in Donglai were eaten up, otherwise Cai Boqi Taishou would not personally preside over the large-scale autumn hunt, it can be seen how difficult the people's life is, and in recent years, the taxes collected by the imperial court have not decreased but increased, and the lives of the common people are becoming more and more difficult.
