Chapter 41 Supporting Zhixian

However, Lin Fengjin secretly gave Squire Wang a look, frowned and said:

"However, it is necessary to warn you that it is not so easy to make a county order, especially at this time, many officials and adjutants in the county government have been martyred by thieves, and they are also responsible for post-disaster reconstruction to resist the pirates of the East China Sea, so it is bound to be complicated and difficult to deal with. ”

As soon as Lin Fengjin said this, it was as if he had poured cold water on these people who were keen on it.

Squire Wang is a person who has been a county magistrate, how can he not hear that Lin Fengjin is exaggerating, but he is helping him secretly, and he understands it at the moment, and sighs:

Lin Gongzi said very well, this is really a hot potato, difficult, difficult, difficult! The old man first stated that he would resolutely not go to such a position where people are roasted on the fire. ”

There is a way that is an ugly monster and two men will become immortals when they rob it, if everyone wants beautiful women, then they will become pit goods, and the rest of the staff will first clear up their involvement when they hear Wang Laofox, and after thinking about it carefully, they all feel that what Lin Fengjin said is very reasonable, and they are all cold-eyed and cold-eyed for a while, and they are unwilling to take on this drudgery.

Lin Fengjin frowned and said:

"Rank, now is not the time to excuse yourself, although this Xinzhi County is a hot potato, it has to be done by some of us!"

"To put it bluntly, any layout can not be seamless, the new county commander has been in office for a long time, may not be able to find out the suspicion of Zhou Papi's martyrdom, once he finds out and investigates it, is it such a coincidence that the East China Sea Pirates came to kill him? If you don't kill it, I probably went back to Northern Qi at that time, so what about the ranks? Just wait for the whole family to be noble and low, and all the people and children will go to Zhou Papi to be martyred!"

When Lin Fengjin said this, several members were entangled again. The location of Xinzhi County on this dog day must be accepted, and it must be done well!

Suddenly, Luo Yuanwai slapped his thigh and said:

"We don't have much experience, but Lao Wang has been a magistrate, he should know more about this, right?"

This sentence was originally intended for Lin Fengjin to say when they really didn't expect it, but I didn't expect Luo Yuanwai to be so knowledgeable and come to assist, Wang Yuanwai didn't know how many times he recommended himself in his heart, and he didn't know how long he was looking forward to this sentence, and he was overjoyed when he heard it. On his face, he took out the Oscar-like acting skills and said in amazement:

"This, how does this work?"

The rest of the people suddenly realized and said:

"Not bad, yes, just Lao Wang will do it!"

"It's all expected!"

"Lao Wang, you have to sacrifice for everyone. ”

Wang Yuan waved his hand again and again, but his heart was full of joy, and he said in fear:

"How is this possible?"

In the end, it was enough to keep the tone and tune, and then he sighed:

"You're going to roast me on the fire!"

Finally acquiesced in the matter.

In fact, as long as you have been an official, you will know, especially as a county magistrate. There is no need to bow down to everything at all, the first thing is to employ people, just grasp the power yourself, there are a total of six rooms under the county government. The six central departments correspond, and their leaders are appointed by the county order to serve as petty officials, called scribes or undertakers, who are directly responsible to the county order.

The six rooms are divided into left and right columns and front and back rows according to the vertical and horizontal columns. The longitudinal row is the left row of officials, households, and ceremonial three rooms. On the right, there are three rooms for soldiers, criminals, and workers; the horizontal row is the second room for officials and soldiers, the second room for households and criminals is the middle line, and the second room for ceremonies and workers is the rear line.

That's the case. The basic shelf is set up, and then someone will naturally work hard to give you a piece of Chen, do practical things, as long as you are diligent, go down and walk around more, focus on the key projects more, and don't be too ruthless in making money, which can enter the category of good officials.

Lin Feng said that there was a shortage of officials and adjutants, hey, three-legged toads are hard to find, and two-legged people are still missing, and they are not to let him be tortured, but to make him an official? As long as the wind is released, a large number of people will come to the door with silver in their hands.

Although Wang Yuanwai has only done one term of county order, but the sea has been up and down for decades, the county lieutenant, and the one who taught have also done it, for those officials and officials who died in Shangqiang County, they are all saying in their hearts that it is good to die, and they are screaming that they are dying well, and they are still too few to die, Zhou Zhixian has been an official here for a few years, and these people are obviously the cronies of Zhou Zhixian County, so how can Wang Yuanwai let go of these people?

Why do new officials need to burn three fires when they take office, one is to establish authority, and more importantly, to find some excuse to vacate key positions and install their own henchmen!

At this time, there was a sudden scream and commotion outside, and then it was quiet, and soon a man ran in and said:

"Childe, those van troops are in a commotion and want to come to put out the fire. ”

Lin Feng said quietly:

"And then?"

The human:

"After rushing in a wave, twenty or thirty people died and they were completely defeated, and according to the orders of the son, the generals led by him did not let go of any of them and shot six people. The county government heard the sound of reinforcements, and they also wanted to rush out to fight back, but they all died. ”

Lin Fengjin nodded:

"It seems that these guys can't make any waves, Lord County, I will leave thirty people for you, and then pick from the Ding Zhuang of our organization, which is enough to maintain order in the city, I will not delay, I will get up early tomorrow and go back to sleep first." ”

When Lin Feng called the county lord, Wang Yuanwai had not yet reacted, and was stunned before saying:

"Okay. ”

When Lin Fengjin left, the inside of the county government was already burned through the fire, and in the midst of the raging fire, Zhou County ordered Yangtian to cry out miserably:

"You rebels and thieves don't even give me a chance to surrender, you can't die well!!"

Then a burning beam collapsed and pressed down, and since then the figure of Zhou Xianling has not been seen again, and the others have long fallen on the way to escape.

Seeing that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, completely engulfing the county government, a tall man with a masked face said to his subordinates:

"What are you waiting for here? Lift up the corpses and throw them into the fire, and go back to sleep in the morning. ”

It was Lin Fengjin who created this farce.

He had sent people to select and detain one or two hundred East Sea pirates who were old, weak, sick, or slightly injured, and when the time came, he opened the door and let them escape and create chaos.

At the same time, the soldiers were divided into two routes, one was to take fifty or sixty people to the county government with Tianluo and Lin Li to set fire. The other half were divided into four or five groups, and in each group there were seven or eight cronies of the five gentry who had been captured, and they shouted along the streets, saying that the East Sea pirates had escaped, and that they should be coaxed to spread the word to the whole city.

At the same time, in order to prevent some "righteous and courageous" people from organizing to go to the county government to fight the fire and being smashed into the conspiracy, it is necessary to create a rather dangerous atmosphere outside. As soon as there is a sign of a gathering, then shoot an arrow at it. As long as you don't shoot at the point, it's good to nip this kind of bud in the bud.

As for the soldiers who came to the rescue, not to mention, since this armed force is in the hands of Zhou Zhixian, the officers have naturally been targeted for a long time, and they must only dare to confront the East China Sea pirates across the city wall, and their combat power can be imagined. With the help of a local snake like a gentleman, as soon as the soldiers moved, a signal was sent out, and Lin Fengjin sent twenty bows to ambush them on the way they had to go, first sniping from the shadows. killed the official with a head and a face, and then shot head-on, and the Xiang army immediately dispersed.

As for saving people, it was simpler, Lin Li first used the head-lowering bee to explore the way. Then he raided with local tyrant gold, directly solved the guards along the way, and after rescuing the five unlucky outsiders, he surrounded the county government to pile firewood. Pour oil and set fires.

Next, more than 50 people sparsely formed a circle in the dark and surrounded the county government. Whether it's the front door and the back door that want to run, the dog hole, the wall to escape, the fire that shines brightly, it's completely a live target.

It is not the fault of Zhou Zhixian that he is flying and domineering, the county official, that is Baili Hou! The magistrate of the county, the mansion of the broken family, everyone knows that it is extraordinarily majestic.

The biggest mistake of Zhou Zhixian is to provoke the wrong person at the wrong time!

Lin Feng killed him for two reasons:

First, Zhou Xianling is a fly buzzing around, annoying people.

What's more, Lin Fengjin found that the matter of the son of the owner was confusing, he and his subordinates were all foreigners, and they were not familiar with the place, so they had to use the power of the local authorities to get twice the result with half the effort, such as the most accurate information about the son of the owner was found out with the help of Squire Wang.

And Zhou County's order obviously can't help in this matter, so Lin Fengjin doesn't mind reciprocating the favor and helping him up to live the addiction of Zhixian, I believe that in this position, he will be more attentive.

When Lin Fengjin got up the next morning, there were already people outside beating gongs and drums and shouting, saying that naturally the thieves had been captured and killed, so don't panic the villagers.

At this time, the local gentry had already taken over the city, and with the strong support of the thirty subordinates sent by Lin Fengjin, and of course, the previous achievements of the squire Wang, he had successfully dispelled the minds of several competitors and took over the power vacuum left by Zhou Zhixian.

What surprised Lin Fengjin was that Wang Zhixian actually showed a considerable level in governance, pacifying the people, providing relief to the victims, and sending Ding Zhuang to build the city wall, etc., which can be said to be in an orderly manner.

However, Wang Zhixian has two major advantages, the first is that he is from a local gentry, and it can be said that he knows the roots of Shangqiang County, and his prestige is also very strong, and he can give full play to his potential, so he has always had a clear precept, that is, he cannot be an official in his own hometown.

The second is that after the people of Shangqiang County experienced two turmoil, they were really afraid, Wang Zhixian kidnapped the people from a certain kind of fear and asked them to pay money and food to send people, and this kind of behavior would definitely inspire the people to revolt in normal times, but under the tragic threat of the destruction of the family after the East China Sea pirates invaded, the people had a feeling of buying peace with money, so they were all willing.

Wang Zhixian's side made a fortune, but Lin Fengjin's side was in a stalemate-his investigation was stuck.

This is actually expected, after all, the time that has passed in this matter is calculated in "years", and the dead have become white bones, and he has worked hard, but unfortunately he is not Sherlock Holmes.

The matter of the old ancestor of the Ji family has not long passed, but Lin Fengjin is afraid of another thing: what if this old ancestor really did not die, and wanted to get out by cremation?

Lin Fengjin wasn't afraid of him. But it's a bit of a rat bogey, once this old thing turns his face in anger, kill himself or not? Keeping his hand on such a master is looking for death, and if he poisons his hand, it will be difficult to go back and sue Mr. Jiuyuan, it's hard to say sir, I accidentally killed your relatives

The rest is only the clue that Miss Zhen was seen in Huanghuadian, but Huanghuadian is a hundred and twenty miles away from here, and the family sent out by Wang Xianling has returned. But he fled back, and according to him, he saw the endless East China Sea coalition army, and it happened to be coming this way.

Lin Fengjin didn't believe much about what this family member said, because there were two former high-level leaders of the East China Sea Alliance Army around him, and they were clear about their total strength, and the main battle army of the East China Sea Alliance Army had gone back to rest, and the remaining tens of thousands of people had to be spread on the sea frontier of Dongxia. If you make it look like smoke everywhere, how many people can come? According to Lin Fengjin's inference, it will definitely not exceed 8,000!

8,000 people want to capture a large county like Shangqiang, with a population of 40,000 or 50,000. Well, if it is said that the Zhou County Order is still there, there is a certain hope, but unfortunately now they are facing the combination of the Wang County Order and the Jialin Seal. Not to mention anything else, the more than 100 red cavalry under Lin Fengjin are going to make these East China Sea coalition forces as big as a fight.

Even so, though. Lin Fengjin didn't dare to take it big, and really took a group of men to Huanghuadian, once he was surrounded, it would really be difficult to fly. So he could only endure it, but fortunately, Lin Fengjin also knew that he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry, so he wasn't in a hurry.

As this group of East China Sea coalition forces gradually approached, their number was also roughly detected, and the number was a little more than Lin Fengjin guessed, about 9,000 people, it seemed that the mud fish that had been beaten before had lost their armor and were the vanguard.

The tactics of the East China Sea countries are very different from those of the Central Plains, the strikers of the Central Plains countries are all elite, and the forward armies of the East China Sea countries are the weakest part of the combat power, and the intention is somewhat similar to Tian Ji horse racing, throwing their worst troops out of the thunder trap.

Obviously, the mudfish army suffered a loss, but they also found out the bottom of this Shangqiang County clearly, so their commander waved his army over, saying that it was looking for a field, or that it was taking advantage of the situation to enter, in short, it was coming.

Obviously, the incoming enemy army has attracted great attention from the residents of Shangqiang County, but Lin Fengjin is quite calm, just this only eight or nine thousand people, he must play the trick of concentrating on attacking one door, and the remaining three city gates are the way to retreat, even if there is any emergency, it is foolproof to escape with his red horse on horseback.

With the arrival of the East China Sea Coalition Army again, the atmosphere in the city is also tense, and there is an atmosphere of impending disaster at any time, but the one who should come is always coming, on the morning of the third day, the East China Sea Coalition Army began to officially attack the city, they actually ignored the existence of the moat, and directly set up a cloud ladder around the city gate, and at the same time, there were a few samurai who looked different and agile at a glance mixed in the crowd.

Obviously, their intention was very simple, that is, to rely on the strong personal combat power of the samurai to directly enter the city first, and first kill a clearing on top of the castle tower to cover the main force to enter the city. This tactic was very popular when the East China Sea Coalition Army landed newly, and it seems that these East China Sea pirates were either new Ding, or they had encountered soft persimmons in the previous battle and did not suffer losses.

At this time, Lin Fengjin stood next to him and did not speak, the person who commanded the battle was the new commander of the Xiang Army, who was invited by Wang Zhixian, and it was a martial artist named Fang Qi, who was also on the battlefield in his forties.

Lin Fengjin was also observing his expression, this person saw that the East China Sea Alliance Army had actually launched such an offensive, and the corners of his mouth showed a smile, but then he was not in a hurry, giving orders in an orderly manner, and nodded secretly in his heart.

After watching the people of the East China Sea Alliance Army charge up with the cloud ladder sword, Fang Qi ordered the archery, and the archers in the Xiang army definitely had no way to compare with the red cavalry under Lin Fengjin's men, but they still killed and injured twenty or thirty people under the dense coverage of the large number of people.

The group of people of the East China Sea Alliance rushed to the city wall thirty meters away, and the warriors mixed in it suddenly accelerated, holding a wooden shield in their right hand and quickly charged, wah, wow

At this time, Fang Qi said loudly:

"Get the net!"

Suddenly someone went to go, these nets are soaked in tung oil, originally used to pull the goods on the cart, but the thumb is the size of the hemp rope weaving, with tung oil soak, it can be said that it is extremely tough, the knife can not move, the only drawback is that it is afraid of fire.

When these samurai rushed to the bottom of the city, they had just jumped up on the city wall, and when it was dark above their heads, several large nets fell, and how could they cut them with their katanas?

At this time, the inhabitants of the city were united, many middle-aged men were helping to carry the rolling wood and stones, and the old, weak, sick and disabled boiled the dung and put it in a large pot and served it, which was the gold juice used to defend the city, and the scald caused by this thing splashed on the body would festered for a long time, which was very vicious.

After these warriors were trapped, they couldn't break free in a hurry, and they could not use their shields to pick up the rolling logs and stones that fell from the city, but what about the two full pots of foul-smelling gold juice that fell down with them? This thing is a viscous liquid, and the wooden shield can't stop it, let alone pick it with a knife.

In addition, these samurai want to go to the city with their bare hands, and they must not wear armor and other heavy objects, this foul-smelling gold juice poured on the body, and immediately soaked into it, if it is boiling water, it will flow away, but the gold juice is extremely viscous, and it can't be wiped off when it is pasted on the skin, and these samurai screamed in pain one by one, their lips turned white, and one of them was splashed with gold juice into their eyes and howled directly.

Of course, the defenders knew that these people were the backbone of the East Sea pirates, and they were afraid that someone would come to save them, so they were very motivated to throw things down, so the screams soon disappeared, and these samurai were directly buried under the city gate

And the East China Sea Alliance originally had some archers who wanted to suppress the city, but the red cavalry people around Lin Fengjin made up for this shortcoming invisibly, Lin Fengjin specially explained that they would be mixed in the crowd, and someone would hold the door panel to cover the side, and after the two sides shot at each other for a while, the red cavalry was wounded three, and the East China Sea Alliance Army did not have any archers at all.

After losing the suppression of the city's firepower, the defenders of the city can even scoop up the stenching gold juice and splash it under the city wall, in this case, Shangqiang County is still fully prepared in the big city, and it is really difficult to break the city, so the attacker quickly retreated several times faster than when charging.

At this time, a banner of the East China Sea Alliance Army outside the city was raised, and he looked at it and whispered to Lin Fengjin:

"Childe, this person who came is Da Dexin, who belongs to a very irritable and fierce character, I have seen with my own eyes, he threw his little trip into the cauldron to cook because of a little thing, and finally the meat of his legs was cooked, and the people kept screaming, and finally Da Dexin forced this man to eat his boiled leg meat, and then cut off his head. ”

"This person was originally a person from the first echelon, but he was ambushed and suffered a big loss when attacking Jiangnan, so he should have been relegated to this second echelon. ”

Lin Fengjin narrowed his eyes and said lightly:

"If this man falls into my hands, I must treat him well. (To be continued......)
