Fujian, Zhangzhou Prefecture.

At this moment, Tan Lun was writing the next letter to be handed over to the emperor, and at this moment, he heard a voice outside.

"Lord Governor, it's time for us to go!"

"Well, wait a minute, the official will be here soon."

After Tan Lun finished speaking, after putting away the unfinished letter on the bookcase, he immediately opened the door.

Outside the door, Tan Lun's personal guards had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw Tan Lun coming, they hurriedly knelt on the ground and saluted respectfully.

"I've seen the Governor!"

"Well, has the news arrived?"

I saw Tan Lun holding his hands behind his back, nodded, and asked.

"Report to the governor, according to your orders, the ordnance, food and grass needed by the army have been sent to the nearby guard post according to your order."

Tan Lun's personal guard didn't dare to slack off, and immediately responded.

"Well, in that case, let's go."

"Yes, Governor!"

……

Soon, Tan Lun and his personal guards rushed to the school field of the local health center, and along with them, there were officials of all sizes in Fujian Province.

Tan Lun stood on the school ground, looking at the solemn and neat soldiers in the audience, and couldn't help but say aloud.

"Well, that's good! Seeing your current appearance makes this official very pleased! ”

"This official is not wrong, you are all the brave elite men of my Ming Dynasty."

Tan Lun deliberately paused for a moment when he said this, and then continued.

"This official has fulfilled his promise before, and now, it's your turn!"

The soldiers in the audience, hearing Tan Lun's words, couldn't help but puff up their chests, making their whole person look more upright.

"Tell this official, how should we treat these bandits who are entrenched in Fujian, do all kinds of evil, and bring disaster to the people?"

Tan Lun said, withdrawing his gaze from the soldiers standing in the audience, and said word by word.

"Exterminate them all, not a single one will be left!"

"Kill, kill, kill!"

And in response to Tan Lun, there was a wave of sound that was like a rainbow and overwhelming, which shook people's ears and hurt.

"Okay, before leaving, this official will repeat the specific matters again!"

"The goal of this operation is to exterminate all bandits in Fujian, and anyone who resists on the way will be killed!"

"The proceeds of this seizure do not have to be handed over! All those who participated in the battle were given double their salaries, and in addition, the soldiers who unfortunately died in the battle could not only receive double pensions, but their families would also be properly resettled by the imperial court! ”

"If you have children in the family, you can go to the government-run volunteer school to study, and if there are elderly people in the family, the government will support them at the government's expense and send them to the end of their lives."

"I've finished my officer's words, do you have any opinions?"

As soon as the words fell, Tan Lun glanced over the faces of the soldiers in the audience with a very cold look.

At the scene, naturally, no sound came, and the silence was suffocating.

"Okay, in that case, pass on the officer's order, and the whole army will set off!"

I saw Tan Lun wave his hand violently and command in a deep voice.

"Yes!"

Soon, only to hear the sound of horses' hooves, this army, under the leadership of Tan Lun, the governor of Fujian, marched towards the area in Fujian where banditry was quite rampant.

And for the sake of safety, Tan Lun also deliberately brought dozens of Furlong machine guns as fire cover! At that time, first use the cannon to open the way.

……

Zhejiang, Zhejiang's Governor's Palace.

Since Hu Zongxian returned to Zhejiang from Jiangxi, as usual, he has lived an extraordinarily leisurely life.

In the early morning, when the sun had just risen, I saw Hu Zongxian lying on a recliner, basking in the sun.

At this moment, I saw a guard, who mustered up the courage to step forward and said in a low voice.

"Report to the Governor, this is a letter from your former staff member Xu Weituo!"

"Oh, Xu Wei?"

After listening to the report of his subordinates, Hu Zongxian was also quite surprised, and then got up from the recliner and took the letter.

"Alright, there's nothing going on here, you go down!"

"Yes, Lord Governor."

Seeing this, the guard immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and after saluting Hu Zongxian respectfully, he left quickly.

After the guards left, Hu Zongxian lay back in his chair and opened the envelope.

After Hu Zongxian finished reading the contents of the letter, he was silent for a long time and sighed.

"Wen Chang, Wen Chang, why are you suffering?"

"Even if you follow this official, you can ......"

After Hu Zongxian finished speaking, he put the envelope aside, picked up the teacup on the side, and took a sip.

In addition to the daily greetings, the content of the letter is Xu Wei's heartfelt thanks to Hu Zongxian, the boss! Xu Wei also mentioned in the letter that he has now returned to his hometown and is studying hard to prepare for the imperial examination in August this year.

"I hope you can pass the exam this time!"

After Hu Zongxian muttered this, he returned to his previous expression.

After a while, I saw Hu Zongxian throw aside the idle book in his hand, and then called the guards and commanded in a deep voice.

"Go and call Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou to the governor's mansion to the official, calculate the days, the reward of the imperial court should be coming soon."

"Yes, Lord Governor, my subordinates will go and inform the two generals!"

After answering the call, the guards on the side quickly left the governor's palace, and then rode on the fast horses that had been prepared for a long time, and set out on the road.

And Hu Zongxian did not have much hope for the court's possible reward this time.

In his opinion, his promotion speed is too fast, almost, he will rise to the next level after a battle.

Therefore, according to the past practice, it is time to suppress your promotion speed a little!

This reward should only be to reward yourself with some gold, silver and jewelry, plus a few words of encouragement.

Thinking of this, Hu Zongxian picked up the idle book that he had thrown aside and read it with relish.

……

"Drive!"

The previous guard, after receiving Hu Zongxian's orders, rode a fast horse and marched towards the place where the army was stationed, and in a short time, he arrived at his destination.

"Stop, what kind of person dares to trespass on the barracks!"

Before the guard could get close to the army camp, he was spotted by a nearby patrol sergeant, who scolded him.

"I'm from the Governor's Palace, and I'm here to have an extremely important matter, so I'll inform General Qi and General Yu!"

The guard looked at the soldiers who were gradually surrounding him, and couldn't help but swallow his spit, and at the same time raised his hands and said loudly.

"Is there a token to prove your identity?"

I saw that among these soldiers, the leader stepped forward and asked with a vigilant face.

"Yes, it's in my pocket, take it yourself!"

"Hmm."

Seeing this, the leading soldier approached slowly, groping carefully in the pockets mentioned by the guard.

"Found it, he is indeed from the Governor's Palace."

The leading soldier from earlier, after finding a token to prove his identity from the guard's pocket, breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned his gaze to his companion on the side and explained.

"Whew, what an offense, please forgive me!"

After confirming their identities, the previous soldiers stepped forward one after another to apologize to the guard.

"It's okay, why is it so tight near the barracks?"

Eventually, the guard couldn't contain his curiosity and asked the group of soldiers.

The soldiers glanced at each other, perhaps to make amends, and then explained.

"To tell you the truth, General Qi and General Yu are testing a new military formation inside, saying that no one is allowed to approach the barracks!"

"That's why the garrison near the barracks is so tight."
