Chapter 287: Appointment, news of the broken city
lived in the city for a day, and for a day, a few cronies and soldiers did not attract the attention of others at all after dressing up, and then they explored the place where the woman was harbored in the city.
Bai Yan didn't stay long.
Leaving a few cronies to monitor in Qicheng, Bai Yan ordered people to return to Shanwu City to transfer people, while taking Wei Lao to continue to the next city.
Pingcheng, Lao, Juyang, Wuzhou, Loufu.
Bai Yan slowly investigated the specific situation in Yanmen County along one city after another, from the mouth of the real 'people', to the city guarding the county order, down to the township chief Qin Shu, all of them inquired clearly.
The prosperous times in the historical books and ancient books, as well as the people recorded, Bai Yan knew in his heart that they were all false, but at least those 'people' were not real cultivators.
The people in the ancient Jane are the surnames of hundreds of families.
can have a surname in this world, and retrospectively, the ancestors have a history.
Therefore, its people may not really be cultivators, and if you want to inquire about the situation in a city through these people, the results obtained are often not true.
The only way to really think about the specific situation of a place is to really start with the farmers.
From farming, harvests, and taxes, to trivial matters in the village, as long as you go to the county or township, you can always ask more questions patiently.
In the past, after Shang Ying entered Qin, before formulating Qin laws, he also went deep into the townships and pavilions of Qin, saw the humanities of Qin step by step, and asked the old Qin people and cultivators.
So.
In the end, Shang Ying wrote the Qin law that hit the nail on the head.
Bai Yan is also preparing for this.
Compared with the sages and capable ministers of later generations, Bai Yan's requirements are not high, and he can manage a county well now.
Inside the city.
Wei Lao looked at Bai Yan who was inquiring about the situation and walked back, and couldn't help frowning slightly.
At this moment, in the other direction, a man in his twenties, followed by a man in cloth, came to Bai Yan.
"General, people have brought!"
The man in cloth came to Bai Yan and said with his hand, and after seeing Bai Yan nodding, he stood aside.
"General White!"
And the man in his twenties, dressed in official clothes, saw Bai Yan, his face was a little frightened, and after coming to Bai Yan, he hurriedly bowed his hand.
"No need to be polite!"
After Bai Yan simply returned the salute, he put down his hands.
"I called Wen Wuwu here today, just to ask, is there a problem in this building that forcibly robs the women of the cultivators, and sells them to others and the Huns?"
Bai Yan looked at the man in front of him and asked softly.
This man's name is Ji Sheng, the Ji family is not a big family in Lou Fu, but there was a doctor in the ancestor, Zhao Guo's doctor, so the family can be passed on to Ji Sheng's generation, although there is no ancestral glory, but in the sophisticated Zhao country, he can still be an official.
Before, in Shanwu, this Ji Sheng also went with the clansmen, although the Yi clan couldn't take out anything valuable, Bai Yan still noticed this man named Yi Sheng, who was not accepted by others.
After that, Bai Yan sent people to dress up in disguise, went to the building to inquire, and soon knew the ins and outs of the matter, and had a good impression of Yisheng.
"Ahh
When Yisheng heard Bai Yan's words, his face couldn't help but be surprised.
Looking at the young Qin Zuoshu in front of him, how could Yisheng not hear that this young general was preparing to investigate the plunder.
He grew up in Zhao Kingdom, and in the past 20 years, it was the first time he had seen people and things he had seen, and an adult in a high position would take care of this matter.
"Yes!"
Yisheng bowed to Bai Yan, his face full of hesitation.
After saying this word simply, he could see that Yisheng's face was full of confusion.
After the city tower was captured by the Qin army, Yisheng was continued to be appointed as an official of Lou Fu, but the position was different from before.
Wen is harmless, the so-called fair officer, who is in charge of inspecting prisons and reviewing case files to prevent wrongful imprisonment.
In the past, Zhao Guo also had a harmless text, but all along, in Zhao State, this was a dispensable position.
looked at the chief of the left in front of him.
Yisheng was a little unsure, whether this was a whim, or if he really had the intention to investigate.
Even if you have the heart to investigate, once you learn about the twists and turns, will this Qin Zuoshu still call the shots?
Inside the city.
Under the scorching sun, there is no green shade, and when the breeze blows, countless dead leaves fall.
And outside a farmhouse garden that is extremely simple, with holes in the fence that can be used by pedestrians.
Bai Yan looked at Yisheng, looking at this man who had offended many powerful people because he was not used to seeing injustices.
After leaving Shanwu, Bai Yan, who had never asked the local officials, broke the routine this time.
"Tell me, how many officials are involved in this in Loufu City!"
Bai Yan asked softly.
Yisheng was dressed in the clothes of an official of the Qin State, with a sharp sword at his waist, and looked at Bai Yan in front of him.
When Yu Guang saw the dilapidated Xiao Yuan behind Bai Yan, he seemed to have made up his mind, no matter what, since an adult finally asked in person, why should he be afraid of offending people again.
And thinking of the various good deeds of the Qin Zuo chief in front of him, giving food to the people, it is rumored that in Qinshang County, he did not hesitate to risk losing his official position and let the people migrate.
Yisheng's heartbeat was slightly rapid.
Think about it.
"General Hui, go up to the city guards, and go down to the city gate guards, there are ninety-two people in total."
Yisheng bowed his hand to Bai Yan, and then thought about it: "After the famine, the number of words of the plundered women is doubled, and the women in other places are all sent to the building to trouble, and they enter the city in the middle of the night, and if the Huns have needs, they are all sent out of the city gate in the middle of the night." ”
After Yisheng finished speaking, he took a hard breath and sighed.
At this moment, even Yisheng didn't know why he was so stubborn after his parents cried and shook their heads.
However, when I think of those women who were sold, I used to endure it, but now I can't help it.
Times ten.
This is the most conservative estimate of Yisheng.
Under Yisheng's gaze, Bai Yan took out a small object from his arms, a duwei's seal.
"In a day's time, the Iron Rider will be on standby outside the building, and you will be at your disposal! Bai Yan didn't want to see any more women being sold out of the city! ”
Bai Yan handed over the token to Yisheng and looked into Yisheng's eyes: "As for the city guard and those officials, after the investigation, there will be evidence to punish the crime, and if there is no evidence, I will deal with it one day!" ”
Old man Wei looked at Bai Yan and heard Bai Yan's words, he was not too surprised, but looked at the official.
If it is true, it is as Bai Yan said.
Then this man called Yisheng is indeed worth cultivating.
And if you see it wrong, you don't need to panic, Bai Yan has a back hand, if you see the wrong person, it will be the man's death soon.
"No!"
Yisheng's expression was sluggish, and he came back to his senses after a while, and after receiving the Du Wei Yin, seeing Bai Yan's eyes, Yisheng's heart was full of warmth, and more of a blessing.
Because Yisheng vaguely felt that Qin Zuoshu, who was in front of him, was really preparing to take care of the plundering of Yanmen at the moment.
Bai Yan watched Yisheng take the seal, and before he could say anything, suddenly two cronies walked in the distance.
"General, there's news from Handan!"
A cronie took out a roll of bamboo slips from his bosom and handed it to Bai Yan.
Bai Yan took the bamboo slip and glanced at Wei Lao.
Then, under the gaze of Old Man Wei and Yisheng, it slowly opened.
Bai Yan looked at the contents.
"General Wang Jian has led the army to break through Handan!"
After Bai Yan finished reading the bamboo slips, he said softly that he did not hide the news.
"The city is broken!"
Old Man Wei frowned slightly when he heard Bai Yan's words.
Wei Lao knew that Handan broke the city.
This also means that there is not much time left for Bai Yan to plunder and the rectification of Yanmen officials.
Whether it is Bai Yu of Xianyang or Wei Lao, they all judge that after Handan breaks the city, Yingzheng will most likely rush to Handan from Xianyang, Qin State.
In terms of guarding safety, whether it is combat performance, bravery, or even iron cavalry accessories, there is no army that can compare to the iron cavalry under Bai Yan.
