Tonglu County, Jiaxing Prefecture.

Lu Tong was in a bad mood recently and was smiling happily, which was hard to see for him who had always been self-disciplined.

"On July 27th, the Japanese pirates attacked the city for five consecutive days and tortured the people under the city. The city was full of emotions. At three o'clock that night, the Japanese pirates stole the city. The Ming army went out of the city through the East City Gate and drilled through the Japanese pirate lineup from the side..."

The goatee's aide smiled and complimented: "Beheading more than 130, capturing more than 70 prisoners, and killing the Japanese pirate leader Xiao Xian with his own hands. This is a great victory!"

Lu Tong, who stroked his beard, had a mentality of being better than being superior to being superior. You must know that even himself and Yu Dayou did not have such brilliant achievements this year except for the battle at Ligang.

For example, Yu Dayou, who is still in Sichuansha and the Japanese pirates, reported to the governor's office to the record of fighting... he captured seven prisoners and killed twenty-three enemies!

Goathu looked down at the battle report, "Hmm? That Songjiang scholar is also in Jiading... It's the one with the governor's yamen..."

"I know, Bin'er mentioned it in the letter." Lu Tong said twice. In the letter, his son praised the Qian family as if there was no unparalleled in the sky or the earth. However, if it was the truth, he owed the Qian family a considerable favor.

"But this battle..." Goathu was Lu Tong's personal aide, and he was also an old acquaintance with his personal soldiers. He couldn't help but say sadly: "There are many losses in the battle, and the Chuzhou Guard can no longer choose many useful ones."

Indeed, it was a big victory, but it was also a miserable victory.

Not to mention the others, 56 people were killed in battle after defending the city in five days and 2 times when they went out to meet the enemy. All the survivors were injured, and several of them were seriously injured and disabled.

More than 150 people were killed in the village war, the yamen runners, and the wealthy guards. Mourning clothes were everywhere in the city, and the county government was almost wiped out.

A total of more than 70 houses were demolished in the city, lost, and nearly 100 large-scale livestock were cut and killed.

Of course, for a small city like Jiading, there were great losses, but there were also many gains. At least they were killed and the captured Japanese pirates found a large amount of silver and wealth. In addition, the donation from the large households in the city before, the county magistrate Hu, who had come out of the mountain, looked energetic.

However, County Magistrate Hu was soon disappointed. He found that the subordinates who were originally respectful to him had changed their appearance. Not to mention the captains, yamen runners, clerks and clerks in each room, even the county magistrates and clerks, the clerks and officials ignored him.

Soon, County Magistrate Hu discovered that he was not just disappointed, but despair.

Gui Youguang, who was extremely famous, had many gentry in Suzhou Prefecture in the city, and even Sun Chengen, the mentor of the Hu County Magistrate, who had no exception, rejected this inaction-free county magistrate.

This is natural. Even the county magistrate who calmed down could accept this. For him, it was rare to escape.

However, this is not a good thing for Qian Yuan, because County Magistrate Hu had already thought of resigning and returning home. He knew that one day the Japanese pirates would attack again. Although he was an official for thousands of miles only for wealth, his life was even more precious.

So when the Hu County Magistrate Ma Shi was ignored, Qian Yuan helped to deal with the many troubles after the war at the request of Gui Youguang, Zhang County Magistrate and the county chief clerk, but he also brought Zheng Ruozeng to be a coolie.

It may be very troublesome for the people of the Ming Dynasty, but it is not difficult for Qian Yuan, who went to do business in his previous life and became his boss. What's more, after this battle, from county magistrates, yamen runners, and even the people, they all bowed to him.

After a busy day, Zheng Ruozengliu reached Gui Youguang's temporary residence. The two of them were both old friends and brother-in-law. Without needing to report, they drove straight into the study.

Gui Youguang, who was sitting at the table, held his pen and pondered, turned around and smiled, "Has the county government handled it?"

Zheng Ruozeng's mouth twitched. He thought he had a wide range of knowledge, but it was obviously far from comparable to that scholar Songjiang.

In fact, this is very normal. The requirements for such affairs in ancient times were far from comparable to those in later generations. Whether it is organizational capabilities, material allocation, financial management, Qian Yuan, who was the only one in his previous life, was considered unique in this era.

Although Zheng Ruozeng has been busy these days, he doesn't understand many of the links. However, he also keenly discovered that the young man had a unique way of dealing with government affairs, and the effect was very good.

After a few perfunctory words, Zheng Ruozeng glanced at the table and asked, "Did you say yesterday that you want to write an article about the siege of the Japanese pirates?"

"Yeah, the whole story of the Japanese pirates in Jiading County." Gui Youguang sighed.

Zheng Ruo once lowered his head and chanted: "Yu Niu and guard the city, and the thief came and went day after day. He witnessed the tragic poison, so he couldn't bear to say..."

Gui Youguang pondered for a moment and asked, "What do you think... Qian's family?"

Zheng Ruozeng blurted out, "If you can successfully pass the Jinshi, you should be a good minister in the world."

"Beru, is this evaluation too exaggerated?"

"It's not an exaggeration." Zheng Ruozeng stroked his beard and shook his head, "What I saw in this life is comparable to that of the Shuangjiang Gong."

Gui Youguang was shocked. Shuangjiang Gong was Nie Bao, who was once the magistrate of Huating and the magistrate of Suzhou. He is now the Grand Sima. He is very famous in the Susong area.

Although Nie Bao was not very famous in later generations, and many people even had the only impression of him, he was very famous during the Jiajing period.

He is as honest as a water official, with a righteous spirit, and is upright and honest, not afraid of the powerful, and is both civil and military. Nie Bao has long been regarded by the world as a famous figure.

Comparing Nie Bao and Qian Yuan with each other is a very high evaluation.

Gui Youguang nodded with a smile, held a pen and dipped it ink, and wrote a passage after the text.

"At that time, the officers and soldiers were defeated, the village braves were dispersed, the officials and the people were furious, and everyone was reluctant to let Qian Yuan, a student of Huating in Songjiang, called him to go out of the city to attack the thieves..."

Zheng Ruo once praised: "With Mr. Zhenchuan's Jinkou, the famous name of Qian's family can be spread all over the country."

"Maybe he doesn't appreciate it!" Gui Youguang was still very stubborn.

Well, Qian Yuan may not be able to appreciate this love.

Everything that happened later had a deep relationship with this article "The Book of the Original and Last of the Japanese Pirates in Jiading County". When this article spread, Qian Yuan's reputation soared, but it also involved him in things that he did not want to participate in.

However, even without this article, Qian Yuan was named among the senior officials in Nanzhili and Zhejiang.

Others didn't say that when the news reached the governor's office in Hangzhou, Wang Jun and Yukishi were first shocked and then overjoyed.

"The Qian family is really a lucky star for adults!" Yukishi smiled and said, "I wrote to the capital. If there is a victory at this time, it will be much easier for adults to be promoted."
