"Not yet?! The tax made such a big thing that the court didn't send anyone to come? ”

"Could it be that something important has happened in the court that you can't take care of this tax?" Xiao Jing muttered to himself.

Thinking about it, Xiao Jing was suddenly dumbfounded and shook his head: "How big is a person's heart, and he is a little mayor who is still worried about going to the court?!" ”

Without thinking about it anymore, Xiao Jing turned his head to Niu Yang and said solemnly: "Lord Niu, do a good job of this taxation!" ”

Sitting up from his seat, Xiao Jing continued: "Lord Niu also knows that I have a village, and there may be more territories in the future, so it is impossible to stay in Daliu Town for a long time, and when Daliu Town is stable, I will return to my village, and then this Daliu Town will ......."

As he spoke, Xiao Jing glanced at Niu Yang meaningfully.

Niu Yang's heart moved when he was watched, and he quickly reacted, and after reacting, he was immediately excited, could it be ......

As if sensing that Niu Yang had something in mind, Xiao Jing continued:

"I know the talent of Lord Niu, so I am ready to reuse Lord Niu! But the premise is that Lord Niu needs to make enough contributions, otherwise he can't convince the public......"

Hearing this, Niu Yang completely understood, and his heart was even more excited, but his face still forcibly remained calm.

Originally, he took refuge in Xiao Jing, on the one hand, he was subdued by Xiao Jing's powerful army, and the demeanor of the 300 breaking 3000 yellow scarves made him unforgettable for a long time.

On the other hand, because of Xiao Jing's status as 'town mayor' and 'head of the first village in the world', and because he has never disturbed the people since he was stationed in Daliu Town, he pushed the boat along the river, and he ......

But he didn't expect Xiao Jing to be so 'big-bellied', regardless of his previous identity, and attach so much importance to him.

In a stirred mood, he blurted out: "Subordinates see the lord!" ”

"Haha, Lord Niu, please get up! In the future, we will work together and work together! ”

……

After serving as the mayor of Daliu Town, although there are a lot of things, I have to admit that the forces that Xiao Jing's men can control have skyrocketed a lot.

Daliu Town is not just a town, the area it can influence is actually very large on the map of the Eastern Han Dynasty, which has been expanded tenfold.

East to Woniu Mountain, north to the vast desert, south to half of the Woniu Plain, it can be said that with Daliu Town as the center, a radius of 30 miles is the sphere of influence of Daliu Town.

Among them, Natushi Village and Qinghe Village were not originally affiliated with Daliu Town, but they belonged to Daliu Town under the deterrence of Daliu Town's armed forces, and the output was handed over every month.

Even, to a certain extent, the barren mountain village of Xiao Jing was actually in the sphere of influence of Da Liu Town, and it should also be under the jurisdiction of Da Liu Town, but Xiao Jing rose too fast and the force was strong, which made the previous Da Liu Town dare not move lightly.

In Shanwu County, Daliu Town and Xiaohezhuang have always been the two most important subordinate towns.

After all, the food of the entire county depends on these two towns, and the right to speak is naturally very large, and even the mayors of the two towns can speak in Shanwu City or resist its decrees.

Therefore, don't look at Xiao Jing's victory over Daliu Town, it seems that everything is calm, but that is based on the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and Xiao Jing did not occupy it through capture, but Mayor Ma voluntarily handed over the official seal to Xiao Jing and occupied the 'name', otherwise, you see if the surrounding towns will jointly exterminate Xiao Jing, and then divide the tens of thousands of acres of grain fields in Daliu Town on the Woniu Plain!

Of course, other towns and towns covet the land of Daliu Town, and Xiao Jing is not covetous of the land of other towns, especially Xiaohezhuang, which is also located in the Woniu Plain.

It is a big town in Shanwu City, with nearly 50,000 acres of grain fields!

"Xiaohezhuang was besieged by the Yellow Turban, and its strength was damaged, and it dropped a lot!"

Xiao Jing received the news from the secret agent, and his eyes lit up.

"Although I can't clearly capture Xiaohezhuang, it is reasonable to occupy some land in Xiaohezhuang! After all, the two towns are deeply contradictory! No one can speak! ”

Now that the Yellow Turbans are in chaos, Shanwu City is surrounded by the Yellow Turbans, and they can't spare their hands, so they can just take the opportunity to get some benefits.

This Xiaohezhuang is hitting the muzzle of the gun, after all, it has had a conflict with the barren mountain village because of the 'salt mine' before, and now there are so many grain fields, who will he fight if he doesn't fight?

Having made up his mind, Xiao Jing summoned his dog-headed military advisor 'Deng Ren' and told him his thoughts.

Hearing Xiao Jing's thoughts, Deng Ren touched his beard, with an expected expression on his face.

After all, he saw early on that Xiao Jing was unwilling to be plain and ambitious, but it was precisely because of this that he decided to defect to him, after all, the military adviser of the mayor of a small town could not satisfy him!

Deng Ren nodded and said, "In principle, there is no problem!" ”

Immediately afterwards, he said: "But if you can avoid it, try not to occupy Xiaohezhuang without a 'name', which will be a taboo for the Han Dynasty!" ”

Due to the Han Dynasty's unique ability to send 'tax collectors' to all levels of 'towns', 'county seats', 'county seats', and 'state towns' to collect taxes, regardless of whether the Han Dynasty admits it or not, in fact, although there are different levels of towns, counties, counties, and prefectures, in a sense, the status is almost the same, after all, they can all reach the heavens!

There are even times when wealthy towns with large populations are more valued by the Han than some poor counties, after all, they pay more taxes!

However, the Han Dynasty also seems to have noticed the increasing 'independence' in various places, as well as the situation of large towns annexing small towns and cities occupying each other, so it is strictly forbidden to merge everywhere! As soon as they find out, the forbidden troops stationed in various places will launch extermination!

This is the source of the taboo in Deng Ren's mouth, which will not only cause hostile siege of the surrounding towns and cities, but also attract the forbidden troops stationed in the county town......

"I naturally know this, originally I didn't want to occupy Xiaohezhuang, I also wanted to occupy Xiaohezhuang's grain field on the Woniu Plain!" Xiao Jing said.

Although "War" is set in the Eastern Han Dynasty, it is very different from real history.

Deng Ren touched his beard thoughtfully, and quickly came to his heart, and said:

"The subordinates have understood what the lord meant, lord, now that the yellow turban is making trouble, it is better to take the opportunity to ......"

When Xiao Jing heard this, his heart moved, and he asked: "Is it possible that Deng Junshi's intention is to disguise himself as a yellow scarf and take the opportunity to invade their grain fields, and then ......?"

Deng Ren looked at Xiao Jing in surprise, nodded, and said:

"That's right, Xiaohezhuang is currently having some trouble dealing with the Yellow Turban, I'm afraid it won't be like us, and we still have the spare strength to send General Zhou to garrison the grain fields!"

"In other words, the lord first sent some troops to disguise themselves as 'yellow turbans' to occupy the grain fields, and then the lord led the army to recover the grain fields occupied by the yellow turbans, even if someone in Xiaohezhuang saw that something was wrong, they couldn't say anything, after all, we occupied the yellow turban grain field, not the grain field of Xiaohezhuang!"

There were some twists in the words, but Xiao Jing quickly understood the meaning of Deng Ren's operation.

It is nothing more than a bypass of the 'nominal' operation!

"Haha, great goodness!" Xiao Jing laughed.
