Baihu official hall.
In the main hall, Liu Yan and Wang Bo sat on the right, and Liu Dayu, Shen Wenyun, and Liu Qunyi sat on the left. They sat opposite each other and ignored each other. The atmosphere was very strange.
At the top of the main hall, the team leader Wang Wenzhen looked at everyone with a frown on his face, a look of helplessness on his face. Chief Flag Officer Jia Hongyu stood next to Wang Wenzhen. He first looked at Liu Yan, smiled and nodded to Liu Yan, and then looked at Liu Dayu and the others. The smile on his face disappeared, and instead was slightly wrinkled. He frowned.
After a while, Wang Wenzhen saw that both parties were silent, so he said, "What? You mobilized a large number of people to make trouble here, but you didn't say anything. What are you doing?"
Then Wang Wenzhen pointed at Liu Yan and said, "Mr. Liu Qi, you speak first!"
Liu Yan cupped his fists and saluted, and said: "Master Qi, my subordinates don't know what happened. Today, Mr. Liu, General Qi of Huangshan Dun, and three other people led more than a hundred people to my Dapanbao to rob people, claiming that my subordinates It’s nonsense to take in their fugitive military households from all over the place!”
Liu Dayu stood up suddenly and said loudly: "Sir, my subordinates and others are by no means empty words. They all recognize the fleeing military households and subordinates. If General Liu Qi does not admit it, I suggest that your Excellency lead the team to Dapanbao. The subordinates and others will identify them one by one."
"joke!"
Liu Yan sneered and said: "Where is my Dapanbao? How can I let you act like this! Besides, whether you recognize it or not, it's all your own words. Who can believe it?"
Liu Qunyi also stood up and said: "So, General Liu Qi doesn't want to let him go!"
Liu Yan said: "Why should I give up my people to you? Who do you think you are!"
"you!"
Liu Dayu, Liu Qunyi, and Shen Wenyun were so angry that they all stood up and yelled at Liu Yan.
Not to be outdone, Liu Yan slammed the table and stood up, shouting and cursing with the three of them. Wang Bo on the side clenched his fists and stepped forward, pointed at Liu Dayu and cursed.
Seeing the postures of both parties, Wang Wenzhen also became angry and shouted: "That's enough! Sit down, this is the official hall of a hundred households, not on the street. You are all flag officers, not scolding shrews!" "
Seeing Wang Wenzhen getting angry, Liu Yan and Liu Dayu stopped and sat back down.
Liu Dayu glared at Liu Yan, then took out a letter, handed it to Wang Wenzhen, and said: "Sir, this is an autographed letter from Dai Baihu, the former Qianhu of Xiahe Village. Now Dai Baihu is in Qianhu. Dai Baihu, who is in charge of military household registration, has already known about it. If this matter cannot be handled properly today, I’m afraid it will be difficult for you to handle it at the Qianhu Office!"
Wang Wenzhen frowned immediately. He opened the letter and read it for a while, and his face became gloomy.
Jia Hongyu, who was standing next to him, sneered and said, "Why, you just started making trouble today. Dai Baihu, who is far away from Qianhu Station in front of Xiahe Village, already knew about it and even wrote a special letter. This is too fast. I'm afraid it's not the case." Can Dai Baihu predict the future?"
Liu Dayu was speechless. He and Mrs. Xu really had not thought of this. At this time, they just said: "Who is Dai Baihu? He naturally has the means to know the major events in Qianhu Office!"
At this time, Liu Yan saw that Wang Wenzhen's face became stern. Obviously Dai Baihu's autographed letter still had weight. At this time, Wang Wenzhen also felt that it was difficult, so he laughed and said, "I heard that Dai Baihu I have a good relationship with some of the gentry in our Wangjiazhuang, so someone from our side must have sent the news in advance!"
Liu Dayu suddenly felt uneasy. Wang Wenzhen couldn't tell what he was talking about and stared at Liu Dayu. He was posing a problem for himself.
Jia Hongyu also sneered and said: "It seems that it is difficult to guard against domestic thieves."
Upon seeing this, Shen Wenyun said hurriedly: "General Liu, don't change the subject. What we are talking about now is your taking in the fugitive military households!"
Liu Yan ignored Shen Wenyun, but continued: "I heard that Dai Baihu is very enterprising. Previously, the defense officer Zhang was in poor health, so Dai Baihu was spying on him. Is it true? "
A few days ago, Zhang Hailin, the defense officer of the Qianhu Station in front of Xiahe Village, fell ill. News spread in the Qianhu Station that Dai Baihu wanted to succeed the defense officer and started moving around.
It happened that Wang Wenzhen was also interested in this, and the two had some disagreements in the past, so Wang Wenzhen had great opinions on Dai Baihu.
At this time, Liu Yan mentioned the matter again, Wang Wenzhen's expression changed directly, and he said coldly to Liu Dayu: "Huh! Although Dai Baihu is in charge of military affairs, this is Wangjiazhuang, and I and him They all hold the position of Baihu, not his subordinates, so there is no need to write me any letters to convey orders!"
Liu Dayu's face immediately turned red when he heard this, and Liu Qunyi and Shen Wenyun's expressions also changed greatly. The three of them did not expect that Dai Baihu's autograph letter would have the opposite effect, and they all bowed their heads and saluted, thinking of countermeasures in their minds.
Wang Wenzhen said to Liu Yan again: "There is something wrong with General Liu Qi in this matter. Since we are all colleagues in the same Hundred Household Office, if we take in military households from other places, we can just say that we will just put them back. It will not hurt the harmony." "
Although Wang Wenzhen reprimanded Liu Dayu and others in front of Liu Yan, he still wanted to make peace with Dai Baihu. After all, Dai Baihu was in the Qianhu House in front of Xiahe Village, and Wang Wenzhen didn't really want to fall out with him.
Liu Yan understood in his heart, but still did not let go: "Master Qi, my subordinates have already said that the military households in my Dapan Fort are all refugees recruited from various places, and there is no other place for military households to flee!"
Seeing Liu Yan not giving him face, Wang Wenzhen was about to get angry, but was stopped by Jia Hongyu. Jia Hongyu whispered a few words of persuasion, and Wang Wenzhen looked better.
Liu Yan smiled, then stood up and clasped his fists and said, "Sir, it has been some time since your last visit to Dapanbao with the defense officer Zhang. Now Dapanbao is developing very fast. I sincerely ask you to continue to inspect Dapanbao." Go and inspect it.”
"Inspection? Now?"
Wang Wenzhen was a little confused by Liu Yan's operation. Wasn't he discussing the matter of escaping from the military household?
Jia Hongyu looked at Liu Yan, nodded thoughtfully, and then said in Wang Wenzhen's ear: "Sir, Mr. Liu said that there must be something going on. We might as well go there and see it on the ground." How about taking a look at those military households?"
Wang Wenzhen nodded and said, "Okay, let's go to Dapanbao to take a look."
Then Wang Wenzhen pointed at Liu Dayu and the other three and said, "Let's go together, too."
At dusk, everyone arrived at Dapanbao.
Liu Yan led Wang Wenzhen and his party to look around inside and outside Dapan Fort. Wang Wenzhen saw that everyone in the military household in the fort was smiling. Almost everyone's life was very good, at least better than the people in Wangjiazhuang. Everyone's faces were full of smiles. We can all see the joy of hope.
Wang Wenzhen and others also went to the military camp to have a look. Seeing that Liu Yan led Dapanbao to not only reclaim a large area of wasteland, but also the fort wall and internal facilities of the camp were almost completed. Their evaluation of Liu Yan instantly increased: " This Liu Yan is really a capable general!"
Compared to Wang Wenzhen's shock and joy, Liu Dayu and others were secretly frightened when they saw this. Especially Liu Dayu, he never expected that Liu Yan would develop Dapanbao into this after he had only been away for such a period of time. Look at the market. The situation inside and outside the fort is almost surpassing that of Wangjiazhuang!
The sky was getting dark, Liu Yan sent people in advance to bring back Zhang Yi's team from the salt field, plus Chen Xun's team who had returned from the military camp, and Miao Shao and Xu Ming's Ye Bu team. At this time, in Dapanbao All the people and horses are present.
Liu Yan immediately assembled five teams, including the Ye Bu Shu team, for training to demonstrate his training results to Wang Wenzhen, and also shocked Liu Dayu, Shen Wenyun, and Liu Qunyi.
As more than 80 soldiers from Dapanbao gathered in formation, and then practiced various subjects such as formation, marching, and battle formations one by one, especially when the gunners fired a volley, everyone's expressions changed drastically.
Wang Wenzhen was very happy. He had an elite soldier under his command out of thin air. In the future, he would be able to straighten his back in Qianhu Station.
Jia Hongyu thought to himself: "Oh my god, this General Liu Qi is really good. These dozens of people are really good soldiers. Even if they are placed in the Qianhu Station in front of Xiahe Village, no, even in Lingshan Acropolis, they are rare. elite soldiers!"
Liu Dayu looked at the drill ahead with a gloomy expression, and said to himself: "It seems that we need to discuss it with my uncle again. Liu Yan is already in a strong position and cannot be taken down by evil hands. We must consider it in the long term!"
Then Liu Dayu secretly said in his heart: "Originally, I wanted to use Liu Yan's excuse to take in the fugitive military households to vent my anger on my uncle. He failed to capture Wanfu Oil Factory last time. My uncle always hated Liu Yan. But looking at it today, this Liu Yan He is definitely not a kind person, I will have to be more cautious in the future!"
As for Liu Qunyi and Shen Wenyun, their faces were ashen at this time. They had obviously been suppressed by the more than 80 people in Liu Yan's hands. They looked at each other and both regretted following Liu Dayu to make trouble.
When the drill was over, Liu Dayu said goodbye directly to Wang Wenzhen, and then left angrily with his men.
Seeing Liu Dayu leaving, Liu Qunyi and Shen Wenyun also said goodbye and left together, each going back to their homes in despair.
Everyone in Dapanbao cheered when they saw this. The military households who escaped from Huangshan Dun, Shagou Dun and Fengshan Dun were also relieved when they saw this. Some women even burst into tears and finally escaped from the sea of suffering completely. In the future, they can Work hard in Dapanbao with peace of mind and live a prosperous and prosperous life!
"Everyone, please go back."
Liu Dayu and others left, and Liu Yan asked everyone in the castle to disperse. It was already getting late, so Liu Yan clasped his fists and said, "Why don't you and Brother Jia spend the night in the castle?"
Wang Wenzhen looked at the Dapanbao, which was still a bit crude. Naturally, it was not as good as his own Baihu Official Hall. Since making money from the soap business, Wang Wenzhen has renovated all the official halls of hundreds of households. Now they are very comfortable to live in.
When Liu Yan saw this, he smiled and said, "My lord, it's better to stay one night. I have something to report to your lord. This matter involves a big gift!"
Wang Wenzhen understood immediately and said to Jia Hongyu with a smile: "Well, since Mr. Liu Qi's hospitality is hard to refuse, let's stay here tonight."
