Chapter 78: The 100-man white-headed soldier is meticulous
County office. The government was divided into two, half of which was used to defend the county government, and the other half was dispersed to the county.
Originally, Yinxian had only a small number of garrisons, half of them were empty salaries and half were white-headed soldiers. Later, Zeng Hong reported the situation to the house, and then divided the team of 100 people, saying that it was a team of 100 people, but in fact there were only 93 people, including centurion Chen You. It's almost the same, and Zeng Hong didn't say anything.
Zeng Hong wanted to go to the street, but was stopped by the county. No, he can only sit in the county government remote control.
"How long will it take for Chen You to arrive?" Zeng Hong asked. Although there are not many hundred people, they are not established in the county and are under the governor of Pingbo Province, so they are stationed outside the county seat. Therefore, from the occurrence of turmoil, and then the transfer of troops into the county, it will take a certain amount of reaction time.
"Zhang Dayou has already set off to have a cup of tea, he should have arrived at the camp at this time, adults don't have to worry, when Chen You enters the city, everything will be settled, and a group of rabble will not become a general trend." The county looked down on the unarmed people, and he thought that the suppression of the riots was only a matter of time. However, for the sake of prudence, he still took his wife and children to the backyard of the county government to accompany Mrs. County Ling. The other officials of the county government did the same.
The county Cheng said it easily, but Zeng Hong felt that it was not so easy to calm down. Otherwise, how could those rebellious ministers and thieves rise from Jintian and sweep the world?
At first, the adults in the temple didn't care, and they also thought that they were just chickens and dogs, and the loss of the city and town was just careless. When the flood thief settled in Tianjing, the adults in the temple were finally willing to look at people.
At first, there were many good news, as if everything was just like what the adults in the temple thought, but it was just a chicken and a dog. The turning point can be traced back to the source, which should be the publication of "Sharecroppers". Zeng Hong didn't know who Xinshuo was, what was the intention of writing this article, all he could see was that Xinshuo was full of sympathy for the people at the bottom, and the incitement of this article was very great for the people at the bottom who were sympathetic to Xinshuo.
It is difficult to say which side the new "Tenant Farmer" is leaning towards, but it can only be said that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom seized the opportunity and took the opportunity to take advantage of its advantage. There are masters in the Taiping Heavenly Realm, and this is already a fact determined by the government and the opposition.
"Still can't be careless." Zeng Hong reminded.
Zeng Hong turned his head and said to the county lieutenant: "I didn't care about you before, but now you have seen this situation, the thieves are menacing, the county soldiers must be full, you have to find a way." ”
The county lieutenant was ordered in public, his face was down, his face was very undaring, and he couldn't help but argue: "The county soldiers are enough, and they don't have to be thieves." ”
"The county soldiers must be sufficient, and the turmoil in the county has been quelled at this time, and we don't have to shrink back to the county office. Whether it is a thief or not, it is certain that there is an organization. The thieves are in the southwest, and there are refugees fleeing from other places every day, and life and death are up to you. It's not that I threaten you, if the city is broken, you will either be hacked to death by the rebels, or you will commit suicide for your relatives, all of which are to give an explanation to the court. You all know that the imperial court's recourse to the betrayer was besieged for three months, and then he surrendered to the ground, and the three clans were affected by him, and he himself did not live for a month. ”
Zeng Hong felt that he didn't need to say more at all, the imperial court had always been as ruthless as sweeping the leaves in autumn and winter, and he was more ruthless to them than to the thieves in Jintian. It is said that the thieves of the gold field can be recruited, and the betrayer must die.
The county lieutenant was speechless, and other officials who were originally close to him also persuaded him. It is indeed the most primitive instinct of human beings to live, and most things have to give way to life.
"That's right." Zeng Hong added as if he remembered something, "Don't persecute the good people, I don't want to try the case of Li Gui and Li Xiulan one day." ”
"My lord, this ...... Soldiers are afraid that they will not be able to recruit. "The county lieutenant is still self-aware, being a soldier in Dayan is not a good errand, how can he be recruited in a short time. At the same time, he complained fiercely about Zeng Hong's case in his heart, and everyone who escaped the robbery of the Wang family and sisters knew that they were all lamenting the good luck of the Wang brothers and sisters and climbed Jiang Ling. Don't want a retrial of such a case? The others will not be sued before you.
"I said, you can figure it out by yourself, legal and compliant." Zeng Hong's eyes fell on the county lieutenant, which made him very stressed.
"Yes." The county lieutenant reluctantly replied.
The backyard of the county government. All the family members were together, and none of them wanted to go back to their own yards.
Xu Ru could see that they were frightened on the way here, but it was not okay to keep going like this, and if they were too frightened, they would get sick. Tader tried to soothe everyone's emotions.
"Don't worry, you'll be safe here." Xu Ru said.
A few people agreed, and if everyone was usually eager to surround Mrs. County Commander like a bee butterfly.
"Don't sit still, everyone, it's just like everyone is so together, we can have a simple tea party, and I took out all the treasures I treasured to share." Xu Ru took out newspapers and novels.
Everyone who came to her could read, even if they didn't know it, they could read it with their ears and eyes.
Mrs. Li was uneasy, and she didn't have the heart to read any books, but she only glanced at it, and she couldn't take her eyes off it.
"This is the issue of My Fair Lady?" Mrs. Li exclaimed.
Even if Zhao Ruyi issued a military order, saying that this issue of Haixi would definitely explode, it would be better to print more of the issue, and the cautious editor-in-chief still decided to print it according to the original amount. This led to the relatively small distribution of newspapers in this issue, "My Fair Lady" became famous, almost everyone in the house had a copy, and there were other places to grab it, the newspaper was in short supply, and some local wives and ladies did not grab it.
Mrs. Li got off to a good start, and many people were attracted, and then the topic unconsciously turned to the book, and everyone exchanged their feelings with each other after reading, as if it was just an ordinary tea party.
Others can relax, but Xu Ru can't, she has to dispatch the people in the backyard, and the servants can stop them for half an hour if they use them well.
At this time, the gate of Yinxian County was closed, and the procession was neat at first, but it became chaotic later, and the small merchants and vendors on both sides of the street were the first to suffer, and all of them were beaten into profiteers. During this period, some people raised opinions, saying that they didn't go to the Du family to seek justice? But his voice was so small that it didn't even need to be stirred up, and it was drowned out by the various voices of others.
The two small workers in the Beiqu Lane teahouse planned to leave when they saw that the mess had been provoked. Their next task was to wander around the city gates and act on opportunities.
Although the white-headed soldiers are old, they have been soldiers until this age, and they naturally have something unique. They could see at a glance that something was wrong with the two of them, and they couldn't explain it, but it was different from the other rebels. At the same time, the two fine workers are also alert, and they immediately noticed that someone had been staring at them.
