Chapter 135: Fighting the Autumn Wind
Liu Lang's unpretentious attitude made the welcome banquet very successful, especially Liu Lang agreed to his kinship relationship, and the guests and hosts enjoyed the meal.
However, Liu Lang rejected the garrison place that County Magistrate Wang was drunk and said nothing, which surprised the military and political officials from all walks of life in Andongcheng County.
You know, if County Magistrate Wang had not poured a few more cups of yellow soup or wanted to flatter his relatives, Colonel Liu of the Central Army, and with his stinginess and stinginess, how could he take the initiative to give Liu Lang the nearly 100 acres of land at the foot of the East Mountain in the east of the city? That was a good piece of land. Last time, a wealthy businessman wanted to build a cotton spinning factory and was willing to pay 120 silver coins per acre, but he was not willing to take action. Now he gave it away for nothing, and the Central Army colonel still doesn't want it.
County Magistrate Wang, who was a little awake, was still giving away more than 10,000 silver coins for himself, and it was heartbreaking. It was the money he had only been earned by several years as a county magistrate here. Unexpectedly, he was unexpectedly rejected. County Magistrate Wang, who was relieved, naturally had to repay his favor. He patted his chest and promised Liu Lang that as long as it was land in Andongcheng, Liu Lang's regiment headquarters would be fine.
Liu Lang was waiting for County Magistrate Wang Da’s words? The previous resident provided by County Magistrate Wang was actually very good. There were mountains on the edge of the city, which could protect the county town and carry out various military training. If it was a peaceful time, it would be the best choice for the independent regiment station.
But unfortunately, Liu Lang and his independent regiment will face the elite of the Black Hawk Imperial Army in the ancient city in 8 months. This garrison site with only 100 acres is too small.
Liu Lang laughed and stretched out his hand. Ji Yanxue spread the military Andong City map in his backpack on the table. Liu Lang stroked his fingers around one of the hills: "Then Liu is not polite, I'll choose this place."
County Magistrate Wang and the military and political officials were stunned. It was not that Liu Lang chose the place too important, but that it was too unscientific.
The mountain chosen by Liu Lang is located in Shuiling Mountain, which is located near the north. The ridge is called Bald Mountain from 2,276 meters to the south. From here to Shijialiang, which has fallen from more than 1,000 meters, the slope is mostly above 25 degrees, and the top of the mountain is round. The relative height difference between the deep and tangent valleys is generally between 500 and 800 meters.
The location Liu Lang chose was exactly at the intersection of Shuiling Mountain and Longmen Mountain twenty miles north of Andongcheng City. The intersection of Longmen, the front edge of Shuiling Mountain and the arc-shaped mountain in the north of the basin, forming a narrow and long front groove called the "Shuiling Corridor".
There are mountains, plains, and rivers passing through the mountains. If you want to visit there, it is a good place, but if you have been stationed for a long time, the conditions will be too difficult.
"Captain Liu, is the garrison there too far from the county town? If there are bandits, the fellow villagers will be in danger." Zhan Chengfang, the current commander of the city defense security, glanced at him and took the initiative to raise objections.
"Haha, the Independent Regiment stationed Andongcheng to ensure the safety of Dongcheng, but Liu's Independent Regiment is a newly established army. It has not yet recruited soldiers and has no way to start training. The venue here is open and can be guarded by danger. It is a good place for military training. As for the safety of the county town, you naturally have to ask Commander Zhan to worry more." Liu Lang smiled softly.
The little things that everyone here turned would naturally not escape Liu Lang's gaze. When Liu Lang's independent regiment with the name of the Central Army came, the most impact was naturally the city defense police commander of Andongcheng County. In an inappropriate sentence, if Liu Lang intervened in the city defense, he, the commander of the major city defense of Qiu Tongjun, would he have to leave in shame if he didn't dare to let anyone go. Then would he be the king of Andongcheng City like now, with a battalion of more than 300 troops like now, and he could be the king of Andongcheng City and be popular and spicy?
Liu Lang just now understood what he meant very well. He only knew how to control the defense of the entire Andongcheng area, and he didn't care about the defense of the county town.
"If you want it, Zhan will not let down the entrustedness of the delegation leader Liu, and will do whatever he wants to do for the safety of the people of Andongcheng City." Sure enough, when Zhan Chengfang heard Liu Lang's words, he was overjoyed and saluted Liu Lang with his feet and began to express his attitude: "Captain Liu, you have something to do, I, Zhan Chengfang, will do my best to satisfy you. Leave the barracks built by the Independent Regiment to the subordinates, and the soldiers will definitely be able to enter safely as soon as possible."
Interests are for exchange. Although they are not very official, Zhan Chengfang, who has been in the officialdom for a long time, is naturally a good player. He immediately reciprocates and undertakes the workload of the independent group barracks.
"Haha, then thank Commander Zhan." Liu Lang smiled and looked at the county government people who looked at each other, saying, "Everyone, Liu has already chosen a garrison. What suggestions do you have?"
I suggest you a hammer. The county magistrates and directors who were disgusted by Zhan Chengfang's shameless face finally understood the sinister intentions of the smiling fat colonel of the Central Army. He didn't want to offer sacrifices? He completely thought that 10,000 silver coins were not enough, so he let them collectively make up for the members.
More importantly, there is a bastard who has a bad name, and they really don’t have the courage to keep up.
According to the convention of the Kingdom period, the garrison commander was the supreme leader of the local area, and he could have the final say from the county magistrate to the clerk. Although Qiu Tongzhou was a bit special and they all supported the king on the surface, in fact, the old farmers from the king to the farming in Qiu Tongzhou knew that Qiu Tongzhou was the dish of eight big bosses. But this matter was a bit strange. A regiment-level central army that was inserted into his territory by the king did not cause any rebound from Liu Runsheng, the state government hundreds of miles away. Not only did it not rebound, but it also brought a confusing order to cooperate with the Independent Regiment of the Second Division of the Kingdom Army to hand over all defenses.
If it weren't for this order, would the local tyrants who didn't have much awe of the kingdom, would they flatter Liu Lang like this?
Although the guests and the host were all happy, the military and political parties of Andongcheng County were still united without any gaps, and Liu Lang had no chance to take advantage of any loopholes. However, when he finally chose a military base, Liu Lang just said something about defense and troubled you. He made Zhan Chengfang's idiot like a pug that picked up a bone. The temporary alliance collapsed.
Seeing that things have come to this point, what else can I say? From County Mayor Wang to other people who are qualified to attend the welcome banquet, they all strive to be the first, and allocated the daily affairs required by the thousand-ranking personnel of the Independent Group.
Chi Dakui and Lin Li couldn't help but be amazed. The superior was the superior, but after a meal, he distributed the cumbersome and huge daily expenses.
However, those damn local officials are really rich, with nearly 20,000 silver coins being paid so much as they are so stress-free.
