Chapter 1 New Officials Take Office!
Shanyin County, under the Guizhou Chengxuan Political Envoy Division, is located in the vast mountains, named after a big mountain at its back.
Since ancient times, Guizhou has many mountains and valleys, and although there are many water flows, the river channels are narrow and not suitable for navigation.
Therefore, since receiving the post of Shanyin County Commander, Lin Nuo and the others did not take a carriage, but were escorted by a group of guards with war swords on their waists and longbows on their backs, and rode directly all the way to the border of Guizhou.
For Lin Nuo's appointment, Hongzhi can be said to attach great importance to it, and directly dispatched hundreds of guards to escort him, so he did not encounter a long-eyed thief on the road, although the road was rugged, but he also reached the area where he served safely.
"Meet your lord!"
On the official road near Shanyin County, two burly men suddenly appeared and bowed in the direction of Lin Nuo.
These two people are Zhao Da and Zhao Er, who were rescued from Nanchang Mansion Prison by Xiu'er and wanted by the government later.
It's just that the two of them now, each with a beard on their faces, a fur hat on their heads, and a palpitating aura on their bodies, they are not extremely familiar people, and they can't recognize the true identities of the two at all.
"How's it going?"
Lin Nuo raised his hand and signaled the team to pause and rest, while he dismounted, walked to the woods on the side of the road with Zhao Da, and muttered quietly.
"After receiving the order of the adult last month, and having a new identity given by the adult, the two of us rushed to this Sanyin County non-stop, pretending to be a foot merchant, and learned about the general situation of this Sanyin County. ”
Zhao Da paused slightly, sorted out his words and continued: "This Shanyin County, located at the junction of Guizhou and Hunan, is the main post road connecting the Yunnan-Guizhou region to the Hunan region, and it is very prosperous with endless business travel!"
"Not far from the post road outside the city, there is a military camp with an army of thousands of people, nominally to protect the post road, but in fact to suppress all kinds of rebellions that may occur at any time!"
"The ethnic groups in Shanyin County are mixed, but mainly Han people, Yi people, Miao people, the previous county order is a Tusi of Yi people, after the county order is vacant, the county temporarily falls into a state of leaderlessness, the main book headed by Han people and the county headed by Miao people are inseparable, almost every three or five will have a group fight is a thing!"
Speaking of this, Zhao Da raised his hand and pointed to the county seat not far away, and continued: "The back of Shanyin County is close to the mountains, the terrain is rugged, and it is not suitable for living, but there are some barbarians living in the mountains, and they usually don't go out, they don't come into contact with the people, and only when there is not enough food, they will go out of the mountains to plunder!"
"To the east of Shanyin County, the terrain is relatively gentle, because the military camp is stationed not far from the east of the county, so most of the Han people live in the east of the city. As for the west and south of the city, the Yi and Miao people are mainly inhabited, and the free Tusi families rule. ”
"The county government is located in the center of the county, but it is basically an ornament, even if the original county order is still there, it is difficult to manage the entire Shanyin County, and most of the general things are discussed by several toasts in the county, and the county order is just the spokesperson of the toasts, responsible for maintaining the stability and balance between the toasts of all parties!"
"In addition, there are several strong underworld forces in Shanyin County, which have gathered a lot of outlaws, kidnapped for ransom, opened casinos, green buildings, and almost all of them are involved in the profiteering industry, which is very difficult to deal with!"
Hearing Zhao Da's narration, Lin Nuo nodded, there was not much surprise, this kind of area where various ethnic groups live together is indeed very troublesome to manage.
"Let's go, it's not too early, let's go to the city!"
Looking up at the sky, Lin Nuo turned over and got on his horse, and then with a wave of his big sleeves, the group stepped on the afterglow of the setting sun and entered the county town of Shanyin.
Lin Nuo and his entourage did not have the slightest intention of concealing it, such a large group of people entered the city, which naturally attracted a lot of onlookers, but perhaps the people here had long been accustomed to the situation of foreign businessmen, and they dispersed after watching it for a while, which did not cause much of a sensation.
Shanyin County is indeed a rather wealthy county seat, as far as the eye can see, shops and restaurants are lined up all over the street, and there is an endless stream of merchants and pedestrians coming and going on the street, all kinds of cries and selling voices come and go, and the local dialect and official dialect are mixed together, which seems to be very lively.
Of course, no matter how lively it is, it can't compare to the prosperity of the capital, so the surrounding guards don't care about it, and at this time, most of their eyes are on the Miao women wearing short skirts on the street.
In the Ming Dynasty, it was the first time they had seen a girl who was dressed so boldly and exposed!
For this kind of scene, the guards were naturally amazed, but Lin Nuo just glanced at it and stopped paying attention, he has two lifetimes of knowledge, no woman on the Internet has ever seen it, this scene can't arouse his interest at all!
And just as Lin Nuo was looking around, in a wine shop not far away, a Yi buyer seemed to have an argument with a Miao seller, and then started to move.
It didn't matter if it was a move, all of a sudden, some pedestrians on the street suddenly gathered quickly, some Miao and some Yi, each with bricks, wooden sticks and other weapons in their hands, and rushed into the store.
As for the other pedestrians, they did not look afraid at all, but gathered on both sides of the street one by one, watching the fun with gusto, and seeing them like that, they had long been accustomed to this kind of group fight.
In an instant, the originally simple battle between the two turned into a group fight, and this style of painting changed abruptly, Rao is Lin Nuo was well-informed, and he was a little stunned for a while.
"It seems that today is not an auspicious day for the zodiac to take office!"
Lin Nuo has an exact understanding of the fierce folk customs here, but since he has arrived in Shanyin County, he is the parent official of Shanyin County, and he can't turn a blind eye to someone making trouble under his nose!
"General Chen, please control all these people who are fighting and fighting!"
There were more than 100 guards on his trip, among which the leader was surnamed Chen, whose name was Chen Nan, and Lin Nuo didn't know what the other party's specific position was, and he was called a general along the way.
For the title of this general, Chen Nan seemed to be quite useful, and immediately hugged his fists and said: "Don't worry, my lord, just leave it to Lao Chen!"
I saw Chen Nan say hello, and in an instant, forty or fifty horsemen directly broke away from the team and scattered around, surrounding the wine shop in front.
"Arrest someone!"
Without any superfluous nonsense, Chen Nan gave an order, and in an instant, dozens of guards jumped directly from their horses, pulled out the long knives at their waists, and rushed into the shop one by one very excitedly.
In the past, they worked as janissaries in the palace, and there were almost no other tasks except standing guard and patrolling, but now they were assigned to carry out tasks, and this group of guards looked more excited than those who fought in groups, and screamed, knocking the people who were fighting to the ground.
