Chapter 307: Fear of Death

After the letter was written, Jiang Long immediately sent someone to send it to Chu Lu quickly.

Immediately afterwards, he gave an order to the sergeant of the inspection department and the officer in the county government to set off for Hewu County early tomorrow morning.

At that time, only a few people were left in Lingtong County.

Let them explain clearly to their relatives when they go home today, and say goodbye by the way.

On the battlefield, there will inevitably be casualties, and it is not certain which one will go out of the river, and when it comes back, there may only be a corpse left.

Of course, if anyone who fights bravely and is strong enough to slash and kill horse bandits and alien sergeants, then there will be a rich reward after the war.

Both the head of a horse bandit and the head of an alien sergeant can be exchanged for money.

The salary of the border army is not high, and it has to be deducted by the upper layers, so most of the border troops hope to have a war to fight.

Otherwise, you won't even be able to support your family.

The sergeants of the Lingtong County Inspection Department and the county officials have subsidies to receive in addition to silver.

Enough to feed a family.

Neither they nor their families want them to go to war if they could.

However, Jiang Long had already given the order, and none of them dared to resist.

In the frontier areas, wars are frequent.

It is both right and necessary for officials to help each other.

Ren is Lingtong County is now far richer and stronger than the surrounding counties, and it is impossible to be alone.

If you have the ability, you have to help.

Moreover, the people of Hewu County are also the people of Daqi.

Jiang Long couldn't watch the people of Daqi die under the butcher's knives of horse bandits and alien soldiers.

Although he is the commander of Lingtong County, he is not only the people of Lingtong County in his eyes.

After the letter was sent to Lu Lu, Jiang Long summoned Cheng Ze and Xiao Fan to discuss all matters in the county, and he had to settle down before leaving.

Xiao Fan did not approve of Jiang Long personally leading his soldiers to the battlefield.

The sword has no eyes!

Even if Jiang Long's skills have been recognized by everyone, his life will still be in danger.

If you're unlucky, a stray arrow can kill you.

It's just that after Jiang Long made up his mind, he didn't listen to persuasion at all.

Cheng Ze did not do much persuasion, and discussed with Jiang Long the arrangements for many things in the county.

Especially after Jiang Long took away most of the officers and sergeants, the defense of Lingtong County must be taken seriously.

Now that the outer river has successfully diverted water, people from outside can only swim through the water without crossing a few suspension bridges that were designed earlier.

Who would dare to go into the water on such a cold day?

Nearby, no one will make ships either.

As for the sheepskin felling, it can be pierced with a single arrow without being shot at all, causing it to leak air.

At that time, if the people on the fells can't swim, then they can only be drowned.

In addition, the carrying capacity of sheepskin felling is poor, and a felling can sit three or four people.

And Jiang Long did not relax his vigilance because of the extra natural defense shield, and he always rode a horse and patrolled the river bank.

Now that Jianglong wants to take most of the people away, the best way is to urgently recruit a certain number of people to fill the vacancy.

In particular, there are more people guarding the suspension bridge.

On the bank of the river, the suspension bridge is made of five-inch thick wooden planks and is bordered with iron sheets.

It is ten zhang wide, and under normal circumstances, it will not crowd even if a large number of caravans pass through the river.

According to the topography and the old trade routes, Jianglong made a total of four such suspension bridges.

At night, it is hoisted with arm-thick chains.

If someone comes at night, they won't let them in again.

The only way to come is to rest on the other side of the river for the night, and then enter the city tomorrow.

Because it is located in a plain area, if a large number of troops are coming, it is completely possible to see and lift the drawbridge in advance.

At that time, even if the other party has thousands of troops, it will not be able to kill.

Although Jiang Long's previous design was extremely thorough, the number of guards did not dare to reduce and slacken.

A small group of troops came to Lingtong County, and they couldn't do anything.

But if a large army and horses enter Lingtong County, it will be the end of the people being slaughtered and the city destroyed.

That day, Jiang Long and Cheng Ze Xiao Fan discussed for a long time.

The next day, all the people gathered in the county office.

The county Cheng Zhou Xi and others all wish Jiang Long a safe return as soon as possible.

Lord Bo Wanggui also reminded him, saying that Jiang Long was gone, and Chang Qian was afraid that he would rely on his identity and make a fuss.

When Jiang Long discussed with Cheng Ze and Xiao Fan yesterday, he really forgot about this stubble.

Xia Lin is a member of the second prince's camp, an ally, and he is a bit older.

That champion Lang Han Qing, seeing that Chang Qian was always suffering under Jiang Long, did not dare to do much to persuade him, but pretended to be deaf and dumb, as if he didn't know anything.

These two don't make a fuss.

But Chang Qian, it's really impossible to guard against it.

Otherwise, Jiang Long is gone, Chang Qian is playing tricks based on his identity and background, and no one can control this person.

Moreover, Chang Qian was ordered to come to Lingtong County to assist Jiang Long, and he could completely interfere in the county's government affairs at that time.

Don't make a mess of Lingtong County, which Jiang Long has worked so hard to govern.

Jiang Long thought for a moment, and a flash of inspiration flashed.

When he returned to the room, he took a pen and wrote an excerpt, which he would hand to Pang Chengan.

Then he ordered all the people and went straight to the direction of Chang Qian's inn.

Chang Qian received a letter from Peng Xi yesterday, knowing that Jiang Long was going to leave Lingtong County with his soldiers and horses today and go to Hewu County to help suppress the bandits.

Why don't you send someone to send back the excerpt, the content on it has not spread.

Therefore, for the time being, no one knew that there would be 8,000 alien troops in Lu Dao to invade Hewu County.

Chang Qian only hoped that Jiang Long could die on the battlefield in order to relieve the hatred in his heart.

At the same time, it was also an idea.

Lingtong County is without Jingjianglong, who else dares to disobey him?

At that time, he can completely take the government affairs in Lingtong County into his own hands and concentrate the power of the whole county.

Thinking about it like this, the result was that Chang Qian still didn't sleep well last night.

But not frightened, but excited.

Before coming to Northern Xinjiang, he was ambitious and ambitious, thinking that he must perform well and make more political achievements.

Lay a solid foundation for your career.

In the previous three years in the Hanlin Academy, in addition to the work in hand, in fact, it was more to let them understand the operation of the imperial court.

Enrich your experience.

Basically, there are no opportunities for meritorious performance.

But it's a different story.

It's just that he thought about it before, but he didn't want to be crushed by Jiang Long as soon as he came to Lingtong County.

Don't talk about the limelight, steal political achievements, it's simply a suffocating nest!

So Chang Qian made up his mind that as soon as Jiang Long left, he would show his strength.

Because of excitement, Chang Qian didn't lie in bed, and after coming to Lingtong County, he got up early in the morning.

Just as Yahuan was asked to serve the food, he heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from the street outside.

Chang Qian, who was disturbed, couldn't help but look slightly gloomy.

If he was in the capital, who would dare to ride a horse so fast near him?

If he is not happy, he will inevitably be rewarded with a whip.

Chang Qianqiang suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart, and gave himself vegetables by Yahuan, but as soon as he ate two bites, he heard a sound of footsteps in the corridor.

The inn has been chartered by him, who dares to break in?

Chang Qian was immediately furious, but then realized that something was wrong.

In Lingtong County, apart from Jiang Long, who else dares to go straight through like this?

His face changed greatly, and as soon as he stood up from the table, he heard the sound of the maid ring woman blocking the door.

Outside the door, Jiang Long, who had already walked to the door, just stretched out his hand lightly and pushed his mother-in-law and Yahuan aside with a little force.

Then open the door.

Seeing that it was Jiang Long who came to the door, Chang Qian's face was ugly.

He didn't provoke Jiang Long again, what did this person come to the door for?

Chang Qian stared at Jiang Long and was puzzled.

"Lord Chang, there have been several horse bandits and small armies of different races in Hewu County recently, and the county commander of Hewu County has asked this official to come here, do you think this official should help?" Jiang Long looked at Chang Qian and asked with a smile.

Chang Qian didn't understand why Jiang Long wanted to ask himself this question.

After thinking for a while, he replied: "Hewu County is adjacent to Lingtong County, if you have the ability, it is naturally the best to help." ”

"This official knows that Lord Chang will not ignore it."

Jiang Long Ha Lu Ha Da Lu smiled, and then said: "Then please ask Master Chang to follow this official and go to Hewu County together." ”

"What?"

Chang Qian was shocked, "This official doesn't want to go." ”

It was going to be on the battlefield, and Chang Qian didn't live enough.

"Master Chang, you just said you were going to help." Jiang Long shrugged, "If you want to help Lingxian, how can you do it without bringing soldiers and horses?"

You can't just pay lip service to it. ”

Chang Qian's face was flushed, but he was silent.

Even if he loses face, he should not go to a dangerous place like the battlefield.

What's a shame?

Life is the most important thing!

"If Lord Chang doesn't answer, the official will assume that Lord Chang will go to Hewu County with the official by default."

Jiang Long said and looked at the Changfu Yahuan next to him, "Why don't you hurry up and pack up your belongings for Lord Chang, you must find a few more thick cotton clothes to come out." ”

"No ......"

Chang Qian saw that Jiang Long was coming hard, so he was frightened and hurriedly drank Yahuan.

It's just that Jiang Long has reached out, circled his neck, and covered his mouth.

"Time is urgent, let's go downstairs first."

Jiang Long put his arms around Chang Qian, and hurried downstairs first.

Chang Qian is anxious and wants to struggle, but where can he break it?

Don't look at Jiang Long's figure is not fat or clear, but when it comes to strength, it is not comparable to ordinary strong men.

Not to mention a weak scholar like Chang Qian.

Jiang Long can easily lift it up with one hand.

Out of the house, came to the corridor, and while going downstairs, Jiang Long lowered his voice and snorted coldly, "Don't you want Peng Xi to help find a way to find trouble with the official?"

It seems that you have suffered one after another, but you have not been taught a lesson.

This official is not muddy, I will come to you first! ”

Hearing Jiang Long say this, Chang Qian's face turned pale in shock.

It turned out that his conversation with Peng Xi yesterday had reached Jiang Long's ears.

Who betrayed himself?

Peng Xi?

The maid-in-law beside her......

Neither!

Chang Qian just turned his brain to this aspect, and he reacted, this is not the time to think about who betrayed him.

The most important thing now is how to stay in Lingtong County and not go to the battlefield.

There are no eyes on the battlefield, he is so thin, how can he come back?

Chang Qian's frightened body trembled, and his legs trembled.

But when he wanted to speak, Jiang Long covered his mouth and didn't give him a chance at all.

Jiang Long's footsteps were hurrying fast, obviously not joking.

Chang Qian didn't want to die, and when he arrived downstairs at the inn, Jiang Long's big hand had just been taken away, and he couldn't care about his identity and face anymore, and begged bitterly.

"Master Jing, just spare me this time!"

"I don't dare to make bad ideas anymore!"

"I've been sick and weak since I was a child, let alone going to the battlefield, but I can't stand it when I just blow a cold wind."

"Brother Jing, you have a lot, don't worry about me."

"As long as Brother Jing lets me go this time, I will definitely help you say good things in front of my grandfather in the future."
