One family is happy and one is sad, here Wang Youzhi and his family are full of joy because of Chen Liqing's arrival, but on the other side, the atmosphere in the county government is not so pleasant.

"Lord Zeng, we want an explanation!"

"Lord Zeng, the Wang family is colluding with foreign thieves under our noses, preparing to plot against our Weng'an, do you really look down like this?"

"Yes, Lord Zeng, you have to give us a head out in this matter!"

In the hall of the county government, a group of people with unkind faces roared in front of Zeng Rongchu, only to see this group of people, some with scars on their faces, some with braids that have been cut short, and some with horizontal faces, among a bunch of people, there is no good person to see.

This group of people is the boss of the gangs in Weng'an County.

Three thousand unknown people are stationed outside the city, and they are also in contact with Wang Youzhi, which makes it impossible for this group of people to sit still. The Kitchen Knife Gang and the Horse Gang, who were still fighting at noon today, were able to put aside their noon hatred at this time and come here to find an explanation together. As for the other gangs that usually have grievances, they also put aside their hatred at this time, and they are united in their anger to resist foreign enemies together.

At this moment, the county seat of Weng'an is a rare unity.

It's just that Zeng Rongchu clearly knows that this group of talents is not so united, if it weren't for Wang Youzhi's strength suddenly increasing too outrageously, how could they put down their past hatred unanimously and crusade against Wang Youzhi together?

Although these thoughts flashed in his heart, Zeng Rongchu knew that he had to give these people an explanation first, so he raised his hand.

Suddenly, the bigwigs from all walks of life who were still noisy just now actually quieted down obediently.

This move made Zeng Rongchu smile bitterly in his heart, where would he, the county magistrate, have this kind of prestige, and now he can actually use Wang Youzhi's majesty to fake the tiger's might, which is unpredictable.

With a wry smile, Zeng Rongchu said: "I know everyone's feelings, but this time, you really don't have to worry, those people outside are just sent by the governor to help us exterminate the bandits, and they have nothing to do with Old Man Wang's family." ”

"Exterminate bandits, exterminate what bandits?"

Sure enough, Zeng Rongchu's words continued, and these bigwigs couldn't help but feel relaxed, but the word bandit quickly alerted them again.

"The bandits are those bandits outside our county, and the governor knows that these bandits are disturbing our Weng'an, so he specially asked Pingyue Chen Shoucheng to summon the group to practice and eliminate the bandits." Zeng Rongchu explained.

Before, he also felt worried about the three thousand people stationed outside the city, after all, it was three thousand. At this time of year, although the control of the Qing Zheng Axe is not as good as before. But after all, it is still a situation of unity and stability. In such a situation, it is quite worrying that there are suddenly more than 3,000 people in the army.

Fortunately, Chen Liqing and the others had already expected this, and reported to the governor through Liu Yu of Pingyue Zhixian County, and then with the cooperation of Master Fan Wei, the three thousand teams of Pingyue were just a small team training team in Shen Yuqing. A small team training team is now suddenly going to exterminate the bandits in Guizhou, although Shen Yuqing is quite surprised, but under Fan Wei's blowing, he doesn't care too much, and even asks Fan Wei to draw up legal procedures for Chen Liqing and their team. Then after handing over the matter to Fan Wei, he went to visit the mountains and rivers to read calligraphy and painting.

This governor of Guizhou, Shen Yuqing, was the fourth son of the famous Shen Baozhen, and Shen Baozhen was Lin Zexu's son-in-law. Shen Yuqing, who was born in such a family, was about to go to Henan in 1909 to serve as a political envoy, but it is rumored that he suddenly became the governor of Guizhou through some means when the previous governor Pang Hongshu was impeached and transferred.

Don't pursue the promotion and transfer in the middle, anyway, he happened to be the year when Chen Liqing came to this world, and he also went to Guizhou to serve as the governor.

When he came to Guizhou, he was still a little worried, where did he know that although Guizhou is backward and closed, the scenery and landscape are really good, and it is the place where the famous sage Wang Yangming enlightened, there is also a culture here. He himself writes well, and after coming to Guiyang, he indulged in calligraphy and painting tours, plus Hua Zhihong in Guiyang, Ren Kecheng did what he liked. He was in this flattering atmosphere all day long, where did he still have the heart to manage a small place like Pingyue.

Guizhou is just a foothold in his career, and as for what kind of development it will become, it is not very important to Shen Yuqing.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that he had served as governor for less than two years, and the power in Guizhou actually ended in his hands.

Therefore, for such a provincial elder, Chen Liqing is still very easy to fool.

"Team training, suppressing bandits?" The people below listened to Zeng Rongchu say this, and after being stunned for a second, someone immediately shouted out unhappily: "Why? Why should we take care of the affairs of Weng'an, why should the people of Pingyue take care of it, is it that we have no one in Weng'an? ”

"Yes, why did the governor want them to suppress the bandits?" These bosses were indignant and had a sense of humiliation.

For a while, this group of people couldn't find the governor to vent, and they could only roar at Zeng Rongchu one by one.

Zeng Rongchu was sandwiched on both sides, but he became a gas bag.

"Alas, I don't know how the governor arranged this......" Looking at the appearance of this group of bandits, Zeng Rongchu also sighed helplessly.

In fact, he thought in his heart that maybe the governor knew about the chaos in their Weng'an, and the people he sent were just to exterminate the bandits in front of him. How could it be possible to let the Weng'an people suppress the bandits themselves.

Isn't that a thief shouting to catch a thief?

In the past few years, it is not that there have been no such instructions, but let the Weng'an people suppress the bandits themselves, often without any results at all, but have become a legal excuse for every fight in the city, not only has no effect, but also causes innocent deaths of civilians. And this time, maybe the above has changed a method of suppressing bandits, and let other counties organize regimental training to suppress bandits, and there will be no problem.

Zeng Rongchu guessed this in his heart, but he naturally didn't dare to say it.

"By the way, I also have an edict from the governor here, because Pingyue is here to help us suppress the bandits, so their food and salary will be paid by our Weng'an County...... Now that the big guys have just come here, can we just discuss the issue of food and salary......" These big guys have not finished their anger, and Zeng Rongchu threw out such a bombshell news again.

"Why, why should we come out!"

The bigwigs were stunned for a moment, and then they yelled in disbelief.

came out of the county town, and discussed with them, which means that these bigwigs want to contribute money to fund, and they can also use this method to collect some money in the first few bandits. But they never expected that someone would use the same method to make up their minds on them this time.

Zeng Rongchu raised the document in his hand with a wry smile, and said weakly: "But the governor's edict is instructed like this......" At this moment, seeing this group of people react like this, Zeng Rongchu was secretly happy in his heart.

And looking at the paperwork in Zeng Rongchu's hand, this group of bigwigs suddenly seemed to be stuck in the neck, and they were speechless.

On the side, Chen Lijun and his uncle and their group also finished eating.

"Uncle, you also know the purpose of this visit, you can talk to my eldest brother now, what forces are there near and in the city of Weng'an?"

After the meal, everyone knew what major matters were to be discussed, and as soon as they walked into Wang Youzhi's study, Chen Liqing asked for Chen Lijun.

"Force, let's let your eldest cousin talk about it." Wang Youzhi asked Wang Dezhi to say.

And Wang Dezhi glanced at Chen Lijun, stood up and immediately found a map.

"Xiaojun, Xiaoqing, the distribution of our forces in Weng'an has been marked here by me, you can take a look......" He spread out the map, and Chen Liqing and Chen Lijun hurriedly surrounded him.

"On our side, there are about two levels of forces, and the big forces generally have nests outside the county seat."

"Let me first talk about the three powerful bandit groups around Weng'an, in the three directions outside the city. Lin Hongying in the south of the city, there are about 500 people, more than a dozen guns, and now the Hongying Hall in our city is their hall. ”

"Zhou Mingjie in the north of the city, Yang Zongda in the Guanyin Cave in the east of the city."

"They have a kitchen knife gang and a horse gang in the city."

"These two bandit groups also have guns, even Zhou Mingjie's group, and a machine gun bought at a high price from Yucheng......"

Wang Dezhi began to introduce the personnel and weapons of the three bandit gangs one by one.

"And in the next city, in addition to the Tangkou gang of the three bandits, there is also a group of our family."

"Others, the second-level forces have a series of small gangs such as the Axe Gang and the Broadsword Society......"

Wang Dezhi used this simple diagram to introduce it, and Chen Lijun and Chen Liqing immediately had a clear understanding of the distribution of Weng'an's forces.

"And machine guns...... Cousin, you bandits, they're too bold, aren't they? Chen Lijun pointed to the distribution of forces in Zhou Mingjie's group, with a shocked expression on his face.

During this period, if there was a machine gun, it was called a cannon by the troops. Even Chen Lijun's new military camp in Nanchang only had two machine guns. But now, he actually found out that a bandit group actually has guns. Chen Lijun was shocked.

"Don't worry, Xiaojun, don't think they have machine guns? Our family also has one, otherwise how would your uncle still have a foothold in Weng'an. Seeing Chen Lijun's shock, Wang Youzhi next to him comforted him.

"Uncle, we also have machine guns, where are they?" Chen Liqing immediately became interested.

"Also, uncle, how did you get this machine gun, and is it possible to continue to get it?" Chen Liqing then asked.

Needless to say, the role of thermal weapons in the next war is needless to say, and Chen Liqing also knows how huge the role is.

Now he is short of a way to import weapons, and being able to get some weapons such as machine guns from his uncle's side can save him a lot of thought.
