(If there is something to do today, it will be a change.) On New Year's Day, Lu Yuan has a three-day holiday, I don't go anywhere, I honestly stay in the dormitory codeword, write as much as possible, thank you for your support!)
Today, Chen Sanlang sat in the hall and looked through the affairs of the yamen. After all, he is a county order, and he should be inspected and asked, and he can't be vague, and he can't let Zhou Fencao do everything for him.
The files are done in detail, these are the manifestations of experience, and they are by no means something that can be completed by a new beginner.
The affairs of the county government were trivial, and the case did not happen much, and suddenly, a file report attracted Chen Sanlang's attention, and he looked carefully:
The southwest border of Jing County, with undulating peaks and mountains, is a land of poor mountains and bad waters. A while ago, a group of strongmen occupied the mountain as the king and planted a big flag, known as "Black Wind Village".
The strongman of Heifeng Village is strong in martial arts, coming and going like the wind, running down the mountain to commit crimes in two days, killing people and goods, the methods are bloody and cruel, and the time is not long, but he has committed a lot of crimes.
The county received a report, and after analyzing it, Zhou Fencao learned that this group of strongmen was powerful and could not be dealt with by the county government's arrest and fast government service, so he wrote to Nanyang Mansion and asked the government to send people to support the extermination.
This is in line with the rules and there is no problem.
You must know that one of the cases done by Heifeng Village is very representative, and the injured party is the "Zhenyuan Dart Bureau". They were responsible for escorting a rather valuable dart, almost all of the elite, eight dart masters, twenty executioners, and the head of the dart.
Such a force is quite good, and the head of the dart, Zheng Guohu, has a "dragon gossip palm" in one hand, and he has practiced perfectly, on the rivers and lakes. The name is well-known.
But the dart team was rushed and killed by the thieves of Black Wind Village, and they died, and the dart goods were robbed clean.
There is this reference. Zhou Fencao understood that this strongman was definitely not something that the county government could handle. So he sent a letter to the city, just waiting for a reply.
There are robbers who are making trouble in the territory, so Chen Sanlang can't be careless. It is our duty not to say the empty words of "serving as an official for one term and benefiting one party", and to be responsible for maintaining the stability of the ground under the jurisdiction.
"It looks like these thieves aren't a rabble. ”
Chen Sanlang covered his scroll and pondered. A frown furrowed.
The general trend of the world is faintly divided. All the major states and counties are secretly accumulating strength, condensing their qi and counting their fortunes, and rushing to turn into a hidden dragon. Under such a general trend, people's livelihood is difficult. Thieves breed naturally. Heifeng Village settled in the southwestern border of Jing County, most of which was due to its remoteness and complex terrain, which made it difficult for officers and soldiers to encircle and suppress it.
"Master Zhou, what do you think of this Black Wind Village?"
Zhou Fencao sat at the bottom of the place, waiting for Chen Sanlang to inquire at any time, and replied sonorously: "Lord Hui, this kind of thief is very harmful. Not killing is not enough to outrage the people. ”
Chen Sanlang nodded in approval: "It's just how to kill?"
Zhou Fencao said: "If nothing else, there will be soldiers in Nanyang soon." ”
After a pause, he said, "When the time comes, I may let the adults go with me." ”
This is officialdom practice. Understandable.
"I see. ”
As he was talking, a servant hurriedly came in and said, "My lord, someone from Nanyang is here." ”
Chen Sanlang said with a smile: "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive." ”
Below Zhou Fencao was confused and couldn't help asking: "My lord, who is Cao Cao?"
"Uh......"
Chen Sanlang knew that he was speechless. Hurriedly covered up: "It's just a folk proverb...... Let's go out and greet you. ”
It seems that Nanyang Mansion also attaches great importance to Heifeng Village. Three hundred officers and men were dispatched on this trip, led by a commander.
The dynasty military system, five people in one army, ten people in a team, one hundred people in one guard. Three hundred people are the three guards. Such a force is very impressive.
Of course, the soldiers of Fucheng are not outstanding in terms of combat power, they can only be said to be mediocre, lacking actual combat and bloody battles, and compared with the border soldiers in Liangzhou, they are completely different grades.
The officers and men stationed in the hinterland of the Central Plains usually maintain their condition through drills. It seems that Nanyang's military drills are good, and the officers and soldiers are in standard shape, and there are no old, weak, sick or disabled people.
The commander who led the troops was surnamed "Tan", he was slightly short, but his muscles were strong, strong and powerful, and his eyes were very bright, and he hugged his fists: "The last general, Tan Gao, has seen Lord Chen." ”
The salutation is decent, but the attitude is neither arrogant nor humble.
In the dynastic system, civil officials are respected, but the current generals are unruly, and they don't look down on civilian officials so much. If it weren't for the fact that Chen Sanlang still had the halo of a new champion, I was afraid that Tan Gao would not use the word "last general" in his words to show respect.
Chen Sanlang didn't care, and said with a smile: "Commander Tan has worked hard, please come in." ”
Today, it is impossible to set out to suppress the bandits immediately, and the number of 300 officers and soldiers is not small, and the county government cannot live there, so they have to arrange it nearby.
Zhou Fencao secretly observed, and saw that the officers and soldiers were strictly disciplined and had never disturbed the people, so he couldn't help but appreciate it very much, and Lao Huai was relieved.
At the reception banquet, Chen Sanlang and Tan Gao discussed the suppression of bandits, and Tan Gao analyzed: The Black Wind Village thief Kou is strong in martial arts, and he is by no means an ordinary bandit, most of them are composed of Wang Yang thieves on the rivers and lakes. This kind of thief is very capable, and he is cunning and cunning, which is quite difficult to deal with......
His analysis is very organized, from which it can be seen that it is not those blindly arrogant and self-righteous generals, but they appear to be stable.
Tan Gao said again: "Even if the thief has the skill, but a person is a person, there are crossbow arrows in the army, and if you kill them, you will not miss them." ”
It turned out that out of the 300 officers and soldiers, fifty crossbows and arrows were brought. This thing is an important strategic equipment, and it can shoot land immortals with thousands of arrows. Bows and arrows have been forbidden since ancient times. Folk people can hide knives, can carry swords, but must not hide bows and arrows, once found, it is a rebellion against the nine tribes.
Now that the officers and men have brought crossbow arrows, they have a greater grasp of this battle, and they are really prepared for the battle.
Zhou Fencao, who was accompanying him next to him, was worried that Chen Sanlang would offend Yuan Wenchang if he robbed the Jingxian county order, thus provoking retaliation and suppression. As we all know, the prefects of each prefecture and city are all members of the Yuan family. Then as long as they deliberately press the report, do not send people, or only pick some old, weak, sick and disabled to make a show.
In that case, Chen Sanlang will be under great pressure. If Heifeng Village is allowed to do evil, the impact will be bad, and he will not be able to take this county order. Officialdom is held accountable, and it is all about the person in charge who is directly responsible, and then we will talk about it.
Now it seems that Yuan Wenchang still has a certain measurement, or he doesn't look at the face of the monk to see the face of the Buddha. Anyway, Chen Sanlang is also an official appointed by the Son of Heaven, with a holy decree and a sword.
After the banquet, they dispersed to rest, and prepared to leave early tomorrow morning to go to Heifeng Village to suppress bandits.
After Tan Gao and others left, Zhou Fencao saw Chen Sanlang's solemn face and couldn't help asking, "My lord, you still seem to have doubts?"
Chen Sanlang smiled indifferently: "No, I just think that the prefect takes care of the overall situation and is high-spirited." ”
Zhou Fencao smiled, and he didn't believe it: "Do you think that Tan Commander is too well prepared and too thoughtful?"
"It's a bit of an idea. ”
Zhou Fencao stroked his beard: "Since this is the case, then you will bring more soldiers tomorrow." ”
Chen Sanlang said: "If something really happens, they won't work, just bring ten people." ”
Zhou Fencao understood: "That's right, hehe, fortunately, you have County Lieutenant Xu by your side, and she alone is enough to be caught by many officials." ”
Thinking of Xu Jun, Chen Sanlang's heart stabilized. However, just in case, he decided to bring crabs with him. Crab and externally, he has always acted as a guest of the Chen family, and taking him with him will not make people suspicious. As for why it's him, not Xiongping, it's because Xiongping is a fish, and his kung fu on land can't compare to a crab. And they naturally have to stay in the base camp and sit in the town.
There was nothing to do all night, and the next day, as soon as the eastern sky showed the white of the fish's belly, and the rooster had just made its first crow, Tan Gao and all the officers and soldiers got up, full of food and drink, and ready to go.
Chen Sanlang and the others over there were also not slacking off, getting up early, and the efficiency was very high. Chen Sanlang also does not sit in a sedan chair, but rides a horse.
Horseback riding is a technical and physical work, fortunately, Chen Sanlang has practiced, and he has ridden it, steadily, and has a bit of style.
Tan Gao looked at it and nodded secretly, expressing his appreciation: It seems that this champion is not a nerd who is dead studying. In the eyes of the generals, the current dynasty is all waste, not to mention going to the battlefield, it is a problem to enter the cave room.
"Lord Chen, if you can't gallop, just follow behind slowly. ”
Riding a horse does not mean that you can ride a horse, you have to run to be considered a skill.
Chen Sanlang replied with a smile: "It's okay, I'm used to running." ”
Xu Jun also rode on a horse and followed him, inseparable from the shadow.
Seeing such a woman with red lips and white teeth and picturesque eyebrows actually wearing the clothes of a county lieutenant, Tan Gao couldn't help but be surprised. However, he has eyesight, and at a glance he can see that Xu Jun is athletic, he is a practitioner, and his kung fu is not weak, it seems that he is a female middle woman, and he doesn't ask much, and shouts: "Let's go." ”
In the faint morning light, the team set off in a mighty way and opened the Black Wind Village. (To be continued)
