This is Song Wen's second visit to Taoshan County. The first time he came and went in a hurry was to register the young people he took in. At that time, he offered to pay taxes per capita, which made the tax collector very happy... everyone else did.
It's great that I tried every means to hide my account... and even reported it on my own initiative.
This time it was different, all the rural soldiers in Taoshan County had their heads cut off...he could be considered a figure in this county.
Song Wen rode into the city, and everyone was frightened by the heads he was pulling in the car. One of the most timid country soldiers actually peed his pants. The soldiers guarding the city, Ding Gu, were even more frightened by Song Wen and became submissive.
Cringe.
Some of the county government officials had seen this scene, and while Song Wen was escorting the carriage to the county government office, he rushed back and told the secretary and county captain who were still a little confused and suspicious.
County Captain Sun was speechless for a while, while Chief Meng was a little unsure...
"Master Sun, the soldiers in Qingshan Village are so tyrannical... I'm afraid Song Wen is not a person who listens to discipline! This is the first time..."
County Lieutenant Sun shook his head: "Master Chief, why are you bothering yourself? His Qingshan Village is in a remote location, so it would be a good thing to have more brave country soldiers. Besides, haven't all our people gone out to investigate? It is indeed that group of people who are running around."
The bandit who committed the crime first provoked Qingshan Village, and then the owner of Qingshan Village, Song Wen, became furious and mobilized to annihilate the group of heinous guys... Sir, if this matter spreads, it will be detrimental to our Taoshan County! But if it is
The volunteers from Qingshan Village turned into rural soldiers recruited and trained by me in Taoshan County, and that would be completely different!"
Chief Meng thought for a while and nodded: "Let's see what Song Wen's attitude is. If it doesn't work, just persuade him to guard his Qingshan Village. There is no room for two tigers in one mountain in Taoshan County. Ding Gu and Ding have had headaches for these years.
It’s quite practical, so there’s no need to replace it for county defense.”
Lieutenant Sun County nodded: "This is what I mean. No... give him more food and equipment and send him back. As long as he keeps his military achievements in suppressing bandits... it will be fine."
"Yes, open the old weapon store and let him take it as he pleases... The thought of those heads makes me sick. Investigating the military merits will be a hassle for Lord Wangsun."
"I don't dare to thank Master Meng for things that are within the scope of my official duties!"
Three large boxes were placed outside the gate of the Taoshan County government office, and there was a large group of curious melon-eating people inside and outside.
Taoshan County is too poor to support a few rural soldiers. Although it is only a few hundred miles away from Bianliang, the imperial army does not look down on this bird's land belonging to the North Beijing Road. Coupled with the deliberate concealment of local officials, Taoshan
In fact, the banditry problem in the county has always been serious.
These gangsters are running around. In this place with four thoroughfares that are all very fast, whoever comes to suppress the bandits, I will run away... If I come to suppress the bandits from the northwest road of Beijing, I will go to Hebei West Road or Hedong Road, Hedong, Hebei
I, the bandit suppressor, was running back, rushing back and forth in a chaotic manner. In addition, the roads in Daqing Mountain were difficult to navigate because of the high mountains and dense forests. There were three leaders and hundreds of thieves gathered on four or five hills, and hundreds of thieves were living there.
So the people in Taoshan County are very curious about the rural soldiers who can really suppress bandits and kill people... But when they see those heads, the people immediately wilt. This is too disgusting. These young-looking guys really dare to kill people?
Amazing... maybe I can feel a little more peaceful when I go out and walk in the future?
The rural soldiers guarding the county government trembled when they saw those heads. Then they looked at the murderous eyes of those young men and the fine waist knives hanging at their waists and felt even more envious.
There are also those thick short clothespins and jackets, cowhide belts and wrist guards, uniform clothes and uniform blue headscarves, all of which look energetic.
Look at the tattered mandarin duck jacket and rag boots on his body and the spear in his hand. It’s hard to compare with others and throw away goods!
The chief registrar and the county lieutenant put on airs and sent a personal entourage to announce that Song Wen had come in to pay homage.
Song Wen left two young men to guard the carriages, horses and heads, and then took An Chun and two tall young men into the county government office.
Deserted and shabby... This was Song Wen's first opinion of the county government. The wood and other materials were quite atmospheric, but the dark, old rotten air seemed to give off the same rotten smell as the stale imperial court.
The Song Dynasty is already old! Without the domineering and energetic spirit of Taizu Taizong, even the righteousness and peace of Renzong Shenzong have disappeared without a trace, leaving only the extravagant twilight energy and chaos... Just like this depressive county
Yamen is a virtue.
When they came to the courtyard of the back hall, they were meeting the heroes after all. The chief clerk and the county captain walked to the door of the main hall and looked out the door with their stands.
There was a soft sound of swords shaking and clanging. The county captain frowned and actually went to see Shangguan directly with his sword? It seems that Chief Meng's worry is not unreasonable? I originally thought about suppressing it and trying to win over him.
It's much easier... Now it seems that I really need to be more careful.
There were two young men in front of them, and the two behind them were. The first one was about twenty years old, and he looked so young that it was hard to believe. The young man next to him looked younger, and the two men behind him were better, but
They only look like they are in their twenties...but the aura and inexplicable arrogance of these people are really impressive and cannot be underestimated."
Lieutenant Sun County is quite knowledgeable, and he understood it as soon as he saw the way these men held the handles of their knives and their murderous intent... These guys must have really seen blood and killed people before!
Song Wen took a few steps forward, folded his hands and bowed to salute... "Song Wen, a common man, I have met these two adults! In the battle of Kushui Slope two years ago, our volunteer villagers from Qingshan Village fought in blood and beheaded twenty-one people, and captured the elderly, weak, women and children of the refugees.
One hundred and seventy-nine! Today the common people will bring the heads of beheaded thieves and the list of refugees to present to you..."
There was no kneeling down, and there was no groveling or groveling in order to please. The Lord Registrar could hardly understand why this young man who had sent people to give him gifts and money during the Chinese New Year was looking so murderous at this moment.
"Um... Master Song is so polite! You are loyal to the imperial court and spontaneously formed a village to protect your home and people. You are the real heroes. The bandits are causing chaos and persecuting the people. It is deplorable... I deeply express my gratitude to you for sharing the imperial court's worries in this way."
Glad, so..."
Chief Meng glanced at Sun Xianwei next to him. Sun Xianwei nodded slightly. Mr. Meng coughed and continued in a pretentious manner: "So I have reported it to the Commander-in-Chief of North Beijing Road and the Prefecture to seek help for you."
With this commendation, you will be recommended as the head of the rural soldiers, and a volunteer in Qingshan Village can also be organized into a battalion and have the title of rural soldiers."
Song Wen crossed his hands and bowed... "Song Wen would like to thank the Lord Registrar and Lord County Captain for their support. If it weren't for the two Lords sitting in charge of the county seat and making arrangements to relieve our worries, we volunteers would not dare to rashly start a fight with the thieves! 2
You sir have worked really hard..."
..."Well, on the road! Not bad...Although his attitude is a bit unruly, his stance is still good! It seems that this businessman from Bianliang is sensible, so it will be easy to handle."
County Captain Sun bowed his hands to the Registrar, then turned to Song Wen and said with a smile: "I knew Song Dutou was young, but I didn't expect him to be so young! Originally, Mr. Meng and I planned to summon Song Dutou to the county seat.
The matter of city defense has been taken over, but after all, Song Dutou still doesn’t have much experience... Why not go back to guard the countryside in Qingshan Village and train his subordinates well, which is also the right way."
Song Wen felt a little disgusted... You are so incompetent that you still despise me? I am not in the mood to invite you to this county town, but you can send me away with just one sentence and take all the credit? This chapter has been completed!
