Chapter 335: Subduing Huo Cheng
The soldiers' recognition of Chen Zhi is what Su Qi'an wants to see, and Chen Zhi has not lived up to Su Qi'an's expectations, and now he can be regarded as a member of the Dongshan Army.
After this war, Chen Zhi has undergone an obvious transformation, coupled with his own good command skills, and now he can integrate with the soldiers, he will become the target of Su Qi'an's key training in the future.
Everyone stayed in Yangliu County for seven or eight days, and went out of the city to search for Huo Cheng, who was a female assassin, and returned with troops at this time.
Su Qi'an led people out of the city to greet him, and after a simple greeting, Huo Cheng had a little apology on his face, and the search for seven or eight days was carried out with the help of Long Wei.
They caught up with the female Assassin on the border of Willow County, and the two sides immediately fought, but eventually let her escape.
But Huo Cheng immediately told Su Qi'an that he would immediately send assistance to the surrounding county guards, saying that he would also catch this female assassin.
Because of the fight between the two sides, the female assassin did not retreat with her whole body, but was injured, this is a good opportunity, Huo Cheng said that he would not let go of this opportunity.
Seeing that Huo Cheng made up his mind and was about to give the order, he was stopped by Su Qi'an.
It has taken so long, too much manpower and material resources have been spent, and besides, this female assassin has already fled Yangliu County, which is so big that it is really of little sense to issue an order and ask for the assistance of the county guards.
What are the guards of several counties in Jiaozhou, Su Qi'an knows at a guess, but he is not so kind, since the female assassin has escaped, let's escape, and this matter will end here.
It was not that Su Qi was kind, but that this person's assassination gave Su Qi'an a killing intent that was not very strong, as if he came to complete the task.
Regardless of whether the assassination is successful or not, there should be no next time, and Su Qi'an doesn't know why he has this idea, but he always has this feeling in his mind.
Moreover, this time the bandits of Quanjiaozhou attacked Yangliu County, and Huo Cheng had already told him in private that it was Qingcheng County guarding behind the scenes.
The other county guards don't have to do anything, and if they receive a request for help from Yangliu County, they should not know.
Such an effortless thing, several other county guards naturally agreed.
The choice of the ambush location in Yangliu County was originally acquiesced by Huo Cheng's consent, who knew that this bandit and Qingcheng County were guarding behind him and sold him directly.
If it weren't for Su Qi'an's timely reinforcements, and the Dragon Guard Divine Soldiers of the Nine Princesses descending from the sky, the two sides would have finally lifted the crisis.
Since Qingcheng County is unkind, don't blame him for being unjust, and directly inform Su Qi'an of the situation this time, the causes and consequences.
thought that Su Qi'an would blame and punish him, but who would have thought that Su Qi'an probably guessed that he didn't say anything, and he didn't punish him at all, so he laughed it directly.
This made Huo Cheng very moved, with this kind of bearing and pattern, he was worthy of being a member of the royal family, and he only had deep admiration for Su Qi'an.
first rescued Yangliu County City and let him be rescued from life and death, and then learned that he was not half to blame for the truth of the matter, especially this time to hunt down the female assassin, Su Qi'an had no intention of blaming.
Huo Cheng is not a fool, he has been a county guard for so many years, so he naturally knows when to know the current affairs.
immediately said that in the future, as long as Su Qi'an uses his own, as long as he says a word, Huo Cheng will definitely follow the work of dogs and horses.
Su Qi'an's repeated tolerance of Huo Cheng was for his words.
Huo Cheng's personality is okay, in addition to being a little strict in managing the administration of a county, but in general, he is a good official who loves the people.
The reason why he agreed to Qingcheng County Shou's plan was for his son's life in the final analysis, which Su Qi'an could understand.
Su Qi'an wants to gain a firm foothold in Jiaozhou and develop and grow, and it is not a wise move to blindly make enemies.
Huo Cheng can be used by him, and the other county guards should be able to, if they want to make them obey their orders, I am afraid that they will have to think of a way to do it to those protons.
Of course, this is a later story, what Su Qi'an thinks about now, but the development plan of Yangliu County.
How good the geographical location of Yangliu County is, there is no need for Su Qi'an to say anything, it is a natural grain area, and it is also a plain that is extremely suitable for growing grain
Region.
While Huo Cheng was out to hunt down female assassins, Su Qi'an changed some of the harsh laws in the county city, and outside the county city, that is, in front of the city gate, there was an endless plain.
Several small strongholds were built, which were outposts of the county, and were not only responsible for the security of the surrounding county, but also responsible for the protection of the surrounding wasteland.
Affected by the bandits before, Huo Cheng could only gather the people and retreat in the city.
Nowadays, the banditry has been basically eliminated, and the land in front of the city gate can be fully utilized.
Blind passive defense has never been Su Qi'an's style of play, this time highlighting the front line and expanding the territorial scope.
Reclamation of wasteland can not only increase grain production, but also allow the people in the city to settle in the city and relieve the pressure in the city.
The establishment of a few strongholds is just a prototype, this is not Su Qi'an's real purpose, what he wants is to establish a new city, not to mention doubling the expansion of the county seat, at least one-third.
The intentions of Su Qi'an's new city planning, how can Huo Cheng not see it.
Once the new city is established and the endless land in front of the city gate is used, the size of the county town will not only be increased by half, but also make up for the disadvantage of the previous county town, which can only be relegated to passive defense in the city and cannot take the initiative to attack.
After making up for this piece, Yangliu County City can be attacked and defended in the future, not to mention what bandits are encountered, even if the army comes, Huo Cheng has the ability to deal with it.
For the establishment of the new city, Huo Cheng had the idea very early, but because there was no support at home, no financial resources, and bandits were raging outside, the plan was directly shelved.
And Su Qi'an's arrival was not only to propose to build a new city, but to do it directly for him, if he was short of people, Su Qi'an also promised him to transfer a wave of skilled craftsmen and management personnel from Tucheng County to relieve the pressure for him.
Hearing this promise, Huo Cheng's face was excited, but this is not over, Su Qi'an promised Huo Cheng one thing, about staying in the state city and becoming the son of a proton, Su Qi'an will find a way to rescue him.
It was this sentence that almost brought the notoriously strict county guard to tears.
Regardless of whether Su Qi'an could save his son or not, Su Qi'an was the first to promise him.
In Jiaozhou, all officials, big and small, know that Li Kang is the heaven of Jiaozhou, even if they are dissatisfied, they will never dare to be an enemy of Li Kang, and most of them act according to orders.
Like Su Qi'an, Huo Cheng is the first time he has seen it, and Su Qi'an dares to say this, which shows that he has the strength to say this.
From the intention of helping to expand the new city and the training of various talents sent by Huo Cheng, it can be seen that Su Qi'an's ambition is not small.
There is definitely more than one county, it is likely to be the entire Jiaozhou, and this plot has to be said to be very big.
But even if he knew about the plot, Huo Cheng didn't have any intention of denouncing, on the contrary, he was very optimistic about Su Qi'an.
Li Kang has ruled Jiaozhou for many years, and it is time to change new blood, looking at Wu Yong, who is the county commander of a county, he is busy running before and after, Huo Cheng has already made a choice in his heart.
Even if he failed this time, Huo Cheng did not regret it, under the rule and management of Li Kang, Huo Cheng's enthusiasm when he was young had long been cold, and he only thought about managing his own one-third of an acre, and the rest had nothing to do with him.
can know that when he met Su Qi'an, after experiencing a series of things, Huo Cheng's cold heart gradually became hot.
After years of silence, it's time for a change.
After Huo Cheng returned to the city, Su Qi'an stayed in Yangliu County for another seven or eight days, assisting Huo Cheng in improving the management system in the city, building a new city, and patrolling the local soldiers.
and a group of skilled craftsmen from Tucheng County, after the management personnel were in place, Su Qi'an took everyone before leaving.
At the gate of the city, Huo Cheng said goodbye to Su Qi'an, and in the past few days, he has learned a lot from Su Qi'an, and he admires Su Qi'an even more.
If it weren't for Su Qi'an's something to return, what to say, he would have to keep Su Qi'an for a while.
The two sides clasped their fists and signaled, Su Qi'an and the others got into the carriage, and watched everyone leave under Huo Cheng's gaze.
Huo Cheng's gaze retracted, his fists clenched, his eyes revealing deep firmness,
Su Qi'an is like a beacon, which has already pointed him in the direction of development.
Now he just needs to do it according to the plan, watching Su Qi'an's convoy gradually move away, Huo Cheng muttered softly, "Don't worry, sir, I will definitely live up to Mr. expectations, and wait for Mr. to shine in Jiaozhou."
Su Qi'an, who returned all the way, sat in the carriage, and there were only nine princesses in the car, as for Chen Zhi, Wu Yong, Song Biao and others, they were all riding horses and accompanying them.
The time spent in Yangliu County is a bit long, and it adds up to about 20 days before and after, and the bandits in Jiaozhou are basically cleared, and it is not suitable to stay any longer.
The purpose of this time in Yangliu County has basically been achieved, and Su Qi'an has to take people back to Tucheng County.
The bandits have been cleared, and then you can manage Tucheng County well, and when the time comes, it will be the day when you really have a showdown with Qingcheng County.
Su Qi'an wants to develop, but he is not limited to the small Tucheng, his second step is to take Qingcheng County.
It's just that the time is not ripe, and he has to wait until after this year's autumn harvest, and he is doing it, and his planning and arrangement, if he wants to see the effect, he has to take time.
After spending so much effort, Su Qi'an didn't just want the so-called triple compensation, his real purpose was far from this.
Except for the Ninth Princess, and the part of the people he sent, he didn't know anything else.
Knowing Su Qi'an's plan, the Ninth Princess was quite shocked, and he was shocked by Su Qi'an's boldness.
Once discovered, it is likely to lose the whole game, but Su Qi'an is very confident.
Although he didn't know where his confidence came from, this kind of self-confidence attracted the ninth princess.
It didn't take long for everyone to return, and they arrived in Tucheng County, and as soon as they got off the carriage, their subordinates came to report.
The threefold compensation from the Qingcheng County Guard and the High Priest had already been sent half a day ago, asking Su Qi'an how to deal with it.
This news made Su Qi'an smile playfully, and it was really ingenious to send it at this time node.
Su Qi'an stayed in Yangliu County for more than 20 days, and when he couldn't deliver it, he waited until Su Qi'an returned to the city.
This can only explain one reason, Su Qi'an's every move in Yangliu County is under the surveillance of Qingcheng County Guard.
