Yin Chang's dispatch of troops from Binzhou was quickly reported to Guo Ning's case.
Guo Ning stretched out his hand to press the file: "Only six ships? That's three hundred people? It seems a little less, right?"
Xu Jin bowed slightly and said, "A message has been sent to Jinan on horseback, and some troubles will occur there. Within a day or two, Yin Chang will have to transfer people."
"good."
Guo Ning handed the file back, thought for a while, and ordered: "After he evacuates the troops, the Binzhou Salt Division will be handed over to Zhang Rong, and he will do whatever he wants. Then, for other places, you should go there in person... You are polite.
That's good. I want to use Yin Chang."
"Don't worry, Commander, I understand."
The chaos of the world is first reflected in the chaos of people's hearts, and those who clearly feel the chaos of people's hearts are warriors.
In the early days when the Jin Dynasty was strong, Meng'an's army was brave enough to fight and fight. Even the Han'er, Bohai, Khitan, and Xi troops who were forced to sign the army dared to take the lead and take the target. Such situations are rare nowadays.
As you can see, it is becoming increasingly difficult for the soldiers to rely on the majesty of the country to drive them. To maintain combat effectiveness, the army relies more and more on the mental skills and power of superior officers.
As a result, a large number of so-called heroes, including Guo Ning, were born. They all used self-taught methods to unite their tribes and took advantage of the chaotic state to rise one after another.
In this increasingly chaotic world, Guo Ning tried his best to reshape the system and tried to rely on the power of the system to turn the world around. But there are many people who are not like this, such as Yin Chang.
This does not mean that he has any malicious intentions, but that his vision or ambition is limited. Yin Chang subconsciously relies on the kind of chaotic state that is suitable for displaying his talents, so he is unwilling to be re-incorporated into the system and be in charge of everything.
This is the first time such a person appears under Guo Ning, but as he continues to expand, sooner or later there will be ten, a hundred, or even more.
Guo Ning was merciless in his attacks on local beetles, but he did not feel that it was necessary to push all the powerful people to the opposite side. Especially the fact that people like Yin Chang could rise in this world proved their talents.
Then, in addition to attacking, digestion or fusion is also a suitable method for those people who are suitable for their own use.
Yin Chang was right about this, he was really worth a fortune.
Unfortunately, Yin Chang was again confused about Guo Ning's complete thoughts.
He is still actively recruiting troops in Jinan.
After the old soldier named Shi Yan established a relief camp in Pingyin County, Dongping Prefecture, men and women came to surrender much faster. However, because there were many small groups of stragglers mixed in, and even some who had been involved in the chaotic situation.
A ruthless and fierce man, the security in the refugee camp suddenly deteriorated.
Yin Chang issued orders one after another, ordering his subordinates and the recruits who had received team training to strictly guard the camp gates, and the people of each camp were not allowed to move without authorization, let alone looting and disturbing the people. However, no matter how good the military orders were, even if there were those who refused to obey the orders.
.
One night, a vicious incident of murder and arson actually occurred, causing chaos between men and women in the two camps and even spreading to the surrounding areas.
This is not a trivial matter. If people panic and turbulence causes the camp to roar, it is possible that these thousands of people will disperse in a rush. When the Jin Dynasty was founded, the Southern Song Dynasty sent troops to the Northern Expedition. Several times, they heard about Zong Han, Lou Shi, etc.
The famous generals arrived, and hundreds of thousands of troops dispersed overnight.
Yin Chang went out that night and ordered his subordinates to suppress it. But tens of thousands of people started making noises, and it was dark late at night. How could the hundreds of people around him care about it?
There was chaos all night, and at the most embarrassing moment, Yin Chang only had five or six soldiers left, and all of them were sent out. It was not until the early morning of the next day that Shi Yan heard in Pingyin County that there was trouble in the Jinan camp.
After riding all night and leading people back all the way, the situation in several other camps was stabilized.
Because of this achievement, Yin Chang immediately promoted Shi Yan to the rank of general, and also gave him full power to suppress the refugees. Turning around, he once again sent out urgent messages.
A letter was sent to Laizhou, asking Guo Ning to continue to send food and supplies in accordance with the previous agreement to reassure people; a letter was sent to Binzhou, and another thousand people were dispatched to Jinan at starry night to coordinate the operation.
Yin Chang is the co-owner of many salt lords and small village leaders in Binzhou. He directly controls about 2,500 households, with a total of more than 10,000 men and women. With these 2,500 households, they support nearly two people on a daily basis.
The force of thousands of people shows Yin Chang's business methods and the richness of Binzhou's salt industry.
Many of these two thousand people are related to Yin Chang and are real soldiers. It was he who served as military commander in the imperial court, as a general in the Red Coat Army, as an ally with Li Quan, and even dared to interact with Guo Ning.
I have the confidence to return. But the quantity is a bit small after all.
Yin Chang became famous very early and had a deep foundation. However, as the situation progressed, the situation where hundreds of people could gather together to roar was gone forever. Nowadays, people like Guo Ning can stamp their feet and talk in the borders of Shandong.
The ruthless characters are the remaining branches of the Red Coat Army. Who doesn’t control tens of thousands of people?
If Yin Chang wanted to maintain his unshakable status as a powerful man in Shandong, he had to have more soldiers. In order to get more soldiers, he finally made up his mind, except for a small number of personal guards to protect his family, and all the two thousand soldiers were
Binzhou was drawn out.
As a result, Bohai County in Binzhou suddenly seemed deserted.
Especially the two connected inner squares in the south of the city were originally used as military camps and school grounds. Now there are only a few old sweepers left in the military camps.
Most of the other residents in Bohai County are concentrated on the east and west sides.
Most of the residents in the east are farmers from the surrounding villages, while those in the west rely on salt. The luxurious mansions of the salt lords are surrounded by countless simple houses.
Zhang Rong walked through the streets and could see that many nearby houses were in disrepair. Many brick walls had collapsed and were simply repaired with rammed earth or wooden boards. Even the buildings inside were like shacks, most of them dilapidated.
Zhang Rong walked slowly, and the road became narrower and narrower, turning into a deep alley. The alley was hot and humid and dirty, and the sewage remained in the low-lying areas for a long time. The footsteps of a group of people stepped on it, making a splashing sound.
After reaching the bottom of the alley and turning a few more corners, a very luxurious courtyard suddenly appeared.
Outside the courtyard, there were dozens of men with fierce expressions guarding them. Some of the men had scars on their bodies, or were missing eyes or arms, making them look even more ferocious.
When Zhang Rong approached, some of the men greeted him, some showed disdain, and a few looked up at the sky, pretending to be distant. On the contrary, they looked like servants, ignoring some rules.
She glanced at him twice, nodded, and led him in.
Zhang Rong walked into the courtyard and was startled by the grandeur of the courtyard. He couldn't help but look around. His eyes were fixed on the string of beads hanging down the corridor, and he didn't move away for a long time.
The servant stood still, waited impatiently for a moment, and reprimanded loudly: "What are you doing standing around here? You can't afford to delay official Chengzhi's affairs!"
The so-called Chengzhi official is Si Yanpang, the salt envoy stationed in Binzhou. This person's surname is Zhang, and his civil official rank is Chengzhi Lang, who is under the seventh rank. People who work on Yan Road dare not call him by his first name.
, only commensurate with Chengzhi officials.
Zhang Rong chuckled twice and quickened his pace.
Following the servant, he passed through two courtyards in succession, and then passed through the Moon Cave Gate before arriving at the inner courtyard. The study room in the inner courtyard was very spacious, enough for twenty or thirty people to meet and discuss, but at this time, except for Zhang Rong, there was no one else. Zhang
Rong sat here quietly and waited for a while.
Suddenly I heard someone shouting loudly in the back room of the study: "What? No one came? It's the first time every month, this is arranged!"
Then there was a burst of obscenities and curses.
Some people kept explaining with confusion in their voices, and their words were so soft that they couldn't be heard clearly.
The person who yelled and scolded was still angry: "Fart! How can there be any truth in this! Go and check immediately and see what they are crazy about! Do you think I, the salt judge, can't control them?"
The person explaining continued to persuade, but suddenly the table and chairs made a loud noise, as if they had been pushed down with force.
The man who was scolding stepped heavily and turned from the back compartment to the front. It was the owner of this mansion, Salt Judge Zhang. This man had gray hair but a rosy complexion. He looked pampered for many years, but he had some dark circles under his eyes.
, it is obvious that the drinking and sex are not stopping in daily life.
Zhang Yanpan put his hand on his hips and pointed at Zhang Rong's nose: "Who is this? Why haven't I seen him? Do you know where the others have gone?"
Zhang Rong chuckled: "There are a total of sixteen salt road heroes who should be here today; there are six Guan Gou under the Binzhou Division of the Yan Division in Shandong Province. Among these twenty-two people, three have been punished by the national law today.
Four of them committed suicide out of fear of crime, and the remaining fifteen people have now gone to the official office of the Binzhou Division to meet the new Salt Envoy."
"Fart! What kind of national law? What kind of suicide in fear of crime? What nonsense are you talking about... Shandong Salt Division has been abandoned for almost two years, and where did the Binzhou partition envoy come from? Why don't I know? Who is this person?"
Zhang Rong pointed to his face: "Ahem, it's me, Zhang Rong."
