Chen Anzhi left Beigu in mid-autumn, and when he returned to Beigu, it was already a few days after the second snowfall in the southern foothills.
That is to say, go to Tiannan, go to Nangui Ridge, enter the true realm, and suppress the southern barbarians. This has been going back and forth for more than half a month, and it is already the middle of winter.
Compared to last time, there were a lot more of them this time, but one person was missing.
Zhen Wuming, Jia Pipi, and Anping, the three people he cared about most were all there. Sochi also led his three hundred imperial guards, waiting for his review with high spirits.
It's just that Wangcheng's Assistant Secretary Qin Buer, his first loser, didn't even bring Wangcheng's merchants to greet them.
"Tiannan County is closed, so the officials from various ministries are temporarily on the stand. General Dingnan asked people from the Wangcheng Merchant Department to help with the accounting and find out where the five million 'stolen' came from and who stole it.
After all, Qi Buli is in charge of the security of Wangcheng and County, so he can't go here all the time. "
Seeing Chen Anzhi's doubts, Jia Pipi explained.
"oh!"
After he understood it, he sent everyone back to find their respective mothers.
...
In the Wei Lai Hall, there were five people, who are now the five major disciples of Wei Lai Academy.
Originally, Chen Qingzhi wanted to run away, because he knew that the more he knew, the more tired he would be, but in the end, Chen Anzhi took him down.
So now there are six people in total discussing the matter.
"How is Master?"
Everyone sat down, and Chen Anzhi asked what he wanted to know most.
"Eat well, drink well, and gain a few pounds."
Zhen Wuming's answer was a little heartless, but he was telling the truth.
"Why did they let you back?"
Chen Anzhi couldn't figure it out.
Then Zhen Wuming said what Confucius said with his head shaking: "Wei is Chen Ye, Chen is Chen Ye, Wei is fake." He also said that Chen Anzhi wrote a poem in seven steps and two sentences of a spell master.
"Then, let you go like this and imprison you in Wangcheng?"
In an instant, Chen Anzhi seemed to understand a little bit, but he became even more confused.
"OK!"
Zhen Wuming returned listlessly.
He was the dignified Nan Yi Zhen Wuming, but he was imprisoned like this. Without the chance to fight in the world, how could he be angry?
However, he had to stay obediently because he was afraid that if he violated the prohibition, Confucius would be punished. Then at the bottom of Ce Tower that day, while drinking wine and gnawing chicken drumsticks, he yelled at him for being unfilial.
...
"Senior Brother An, since Master is safe, let's put this matter aside for now.
Bei Gu, no money again! "
As the supervisor of Beigu, he wants the money and he spends the money.
Jia Pipi doesn't know how to make money, and Tian An'an has already borrowed money from there almost threateningly. He wants to suppress the bandits for cash. The two major operations in Beigu and Nanshan have made the bandits in Dewang City disappear, and the big families in Wangcheng can also run away. almost.
He really didn't know where to raise money.
"Don't be impatient about money. Someone will send money in a few days. Do you think one million taels is enough?"
Chen Anzhi said with a smile.
"???"
After hearing Chen Anzhi's words, everyone's eyes widened.
If you open your mouth and get a million taels, who would be so generous?
"Qin Wushuang, are you okay?"
Instead of rushing to solve the mystery, he asked.
"In order to prevent him from being discovered, he pretended to be an old craftsman and did proofreading in my supervisor's office.
That old boy is quite useful. "
Speaking of Tan Wushuang, Anping smiled a little.
This old guy, one of the Three Heroes of Wangcheng, is not good at fighting, but he is indeed capable in taking charge.
"Huzi, you and Qiyu have escorted him in and out of Wangcheng three times in the past two days.
Anping, ask him to handwrite a copy of each of the things he did for Lai Junchen and what Zhuge Yu said in Nanshan in the little black book, and then stamp it with the seal of my Wangcheng boss.
I'll leave the errands to Brother Qing. "
Chen Anzhi issued three orders in a row, making everyone instantly aware that Chen Anzhi was going to prey on Lai Junchen again.
poor guy.
...
"Pippi, bring someone up!"
Seeing the three people leaving with the order, Zhen Wuming was also about to leave. He stopped him and gave instructions to Jia Pipi.
"I've met the young master!"
Not long after, Long Qing and Shang Yu entered the hall and paid homage to Chen Anzhi.
"How many people came back this time, and how many died?"
As soon as he saw the two of them, Chen Anzhi asked gloomily.
"If it weren't for Young Master's ingenious plan to encircle and suppress the southern barbarians, the demon-hunting army would have too much to worry about, and the northern barbarians would not dare to move. It is estimated that there will be less than ten people left.
This time, a total of 110 people left the demon hunt, and only half of the team remained in the North Valley.
They are all old friends who have lived and died together for ten years! "
Thinking of this cruelty, Long Qing couldn't help but feel talkative and emotional.
"On the occasion of Gucheng, I will erect a monument to remember their glory."
After Chen Anzhi finished speaking, he asked again:
"Do you want to join the army or stay in North Valley?"
"The army of the world, where else can we go besides Dingbei?"
Long Qing was confused.
"How is Dingnan?"
Chen Anzhi asked with a smile.
"Forget it, let's stay in Beigu!"
Upon hearing Dingnan, Long Qing was initially moved, but in the end he gave up his thoughts.
"In this case, you can help me refine my army. As a captain of Guogan, I have the authority of five hundred soldiers given by the emperor. I want you to completely refine those three hundred imperial guards into Chen.
Third child, if you are too busy, you can also join in and practice. Then you will sit in Beigu and guard our base camp. You must understand your subordinates.
Second brother, let the people from the mountains come out in batches, whether in the name of labor or for promotion, whatever you can think of, pull them out.
This time I have crippled the demon hunting army. After I force Lai Junchen to go to Weizhou, let's talk about the matter in Tiannan. The North Valley is my North Valley of Wei Lai. They don't need to endure hardship in the mountains.
Also, I want about three hundred elites to station themselves at Wei Lai Villa in Nanman Mountain in one month, and then secretly send people there to me.
This is the biggest gain from my trip and our biggest reliance in the future. "
After a long talk, after some arrangements, Chen Anzhi told the story of his trip and the true demon realm, which shocked several people present.
This is great news!
...
"Chief, something bad has happened!"
In the yamen of the Tiannan County Merchant Department, Lai Junchen, who had been sealed off, heard the shouts of his confidants, and his head started to grow.
Since Dingnan General Dingnan Huzhuo led the vanguard army to seal the city, he has almost cut off all contact with the outside world, and has lost control of everything. He has been miserable all day long.
"Don't make such a fuss, you are still a high-ranking county official.
Tell me, what kind of nonsense is this? "
These people who have nothing to do but shout about and criticize everything, can't they help him share his worries?
Lai Junchen said angrily.
"According to the joint recognition of Black Crow and Night Owl, when Dingnan was encircling and suppressing the Southern Barbarians, the demon hunting army was attacked, and nearly two thousand people were killed in the battle. The bodies were about to be transported to Tiannan, preparing to go to Wangcheng to let Nanshan and Identification of the guilty in North Valley.”
"puff!"
After hearing the report from his confidant, Lai Junchen became furious, his eyes blackened, and he fell to the ground spurting blood.
