Yu Biao, Dongzhou Wei, was the third in command of Houjiu County in Dongzhou. He was in charge of all military and government affairs in Houjiu County. He was the right-hand man of Dongzhou Mu Zhou Zibin.
This person is not only a high-ranking person, but also a ruthless character. In his early years, he went to the front line and fought on the battlefield, and he survived many mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
We are never lenient towards pirates and Japanese pirates, and we are also gentle towards the people within the territory. For the sake of the stability of the Houjiu County of Dongzhou, if any of the people within the territory are found to be colluding with the pirates and Japanese pirates, they will be executed.
Moreover, a joint sitting system was adopted. Those of the same clan, same street, or even the same village, depending on the seriousness of the case, should be punished, regardless of men, women, old and young. Anyone who was found to be harboring would be killed.
It is this almost cruel continuous sitting system that makes the people in the territory quite afraid of this person. When this continuous sitting system was first introduced, it was naturally opposed by some people.
However, under Yu Biao's iron-blooded suppression, the opposition quickly disappeared, and he himself also disappeared from the world.
Privately, local people even nicknamed Yu Biao, "Butcher."
How could he not know this title based on Yu Biao's identity, but he didn't mind, instead he was proud of it. What he wanted was that when the people of Houjiu County saw him, they would naturally be afraid of him and fear him.
Only in this way can he show his identity as a state captain. Even he was dispatched this time. All the people felt a pang of regret in their hearts. They didn't know who provoked Yu Biao again. This person's fate, no need to think about it, probably knew what would happen.
Two thousand state soldiers together with one thousand Danyang soldiers set off in a mighty manner. Judging from their marching speed, it was estimated that it would take three days to reach Yanglai County from Dongzhou City.
From the time Lu Wenliang left Yanglai County to the time he arrived in Dongzhou City, until they led the army to set off, it took six or seven days to arrive.
In six or seven days, most of Yanglai County was also ready, but Yu Biao didn't care at all.
In his opinion, it is just a small county town. No matter how prestigious the local magistrate is and how many people will gather the people to fight, it is nothing more than a mob at best.
In front of a real army, Fang Jingzhi cannot change the world.
Yu Biao, who was sitting on the horse, glanced around and looked at Lu Wenliang and Shen Yang who were following silently, and said with a bit of displeasure.
"Mr. Lu, you are also a county magistrate after all. You can serve as a county magistrate. Master Zhou Mu has great trust in you. You are not a novice. How come you can't even handle a lower-level county magistrate? This is such a disappointment to me. ”xь.
"And you, nephew Shen Xian, after all, you are also Brother Shen's biological son. You have been in charge of Danyang County for so many years, and you were actually blocked by a small county magistrate. This has spread back to Brother Shen's ears. How can you explain?"
The two of them naturally understood the knocking in Yu Biao's words and quickly explained.
"Master Zhou Wei, it's not that the official is incompetent in his work, but that this person has considerable prestige in the local area. It can be said that he responds to hundreds of calls. Moreover, a few days ago, he even colluded with an unknown person. Judging from the official and Nephew Shen Xian, , most likely related to pirates."
"Yes, Uncle Yu, my nephew saw it with his own eyes. Mr. Lu led troops to Yanglai County to inquire about the reason. Instead of being polite, Fang Jingzhi led an ambush."
"There are at least nearly a thousand people in the ambush, and the weapons in their hands are very fierce. How can a small local county have such a force? Even if it does, it has not been reported to the superior."
"This is not only treating Shangguan as useless, but also flouting the laws of the court. Lord Lu's retreat was also to avoid something bigger happening, so he came to the city to ask for help."
"I hope Uncle Yu will forgive me. There are so many troops in one county. If they let them act recklessly, Yanglai County will definitely become a place out of control. Then we will be in trouble."
"Now in Houjiu County, the only one who can intimidate the local area is you, Uncle Yu. If Uncle Yu doesn't care, who else can control this Dongzhou? I'll leave it to Uncle Yu this time."
Shenyang is worthy of being a businessman. When he said such words, he even flattered Yu Biao. Yu Biao's displeased expression was obviously relieved a lot.
Yu Biao nodded and said calmly, "Well, my nephew is right. If a small local county is not supervised, it is easy to cause trouble. If this person really wants to be with Hai
The collusion of thieves and Japanese pirates really made things difficult for Mr. Lu. "
"Don't worry. For the safety of Houjiu County, this matter has been decided by this captain. He is just a small county magistrate. He will eventually pay the price for his arrogance."
"I'll leave everything to Lord Zhou." Lu Wenliang clasped his fists, his face full of sincerity.
But when his eyes met with Shen Yang's, there was clearly a look of pride flashing in their eyes.
The three thousand troops were making a lot of noise along the way. Whether it was local people or some mountain bandits, they all fled away as soon as they heard the noise.
Obviously they knew the state soldiers dispatched this time and Yu Biao who led the team very well. If they got into trouble at this time, they would only think that their lives would be long.
As the army marched towards Yanglai County, some rumors spread.
Most of these rumors are that there are female cadres in Yanglai County, and the Yanglai County magistrate colludes with pirates. The evidence is conclusive. If not, how could Yuzhou Lieutenant lead an army to attack.
If the people in the county are still conscientious, they can open the city gate and run for their lives quickly, or they can abandon the secret and surrender to cooperate with Yuzhou Lieutenant to get rid of the female ganren county magistrate. If they do nothing, they will bear the consequences.
Such rumors spread directly around Yanglai County as the three thousand troops approached.
The originators of these rumors were none other than Shen Yang and Lu Wenliang, who ordered their men to spread them.
The two of them are not fools. Even if they have Yu Biao's support and support behind them, they still have to make some reactions.
The attackers must first of all act in the name of justice. If they were like him and led the Danyang soldiers without asking anything, they would end up falling into the pit set by Fang Jingzhi.
After suffering a loss once, Lu Wenliang would not be stupid enough to fall into the same pit twice.
After having a just reason, by spreading rumors, on the one hand, it puts pressure on Fang Jingzhi, and more importantly, it creates a panic situation for the people in the city. This is to attack people's hearts first.
The two of them had read through books on the art of war. Since Fang Jingzhi wanted to make plans, he would treat them in his own way.
Under such a sense of oppression, such rumors often have the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort.
Having been a county guard for many years, Lu Wenliang knew the mentality of these low-level untouchables quite well. There were a huge number of these untouchables, and if they were really to be utilized, they would indeed be a force that could not be ignored.
But these people are born to be despicable. Most of them are a group of people who follow the trend and follow the trend. As long as they are given some pressure and some threats. xь.
He would immediately change the direction of the situation and quickly change his position, so Lu Wenliang always felt that even if Fang Jingzhi led by example and won over the entire county people, so what if his prestige was very high!
When their army arrived, this time the leader was Yu Biaozhou Lieutenant, who was famous in Houjiu County. He didn't even need to show his face. Just hearing his name was enough to scare people to death.
Untouchables are untouchables, and they will only wake up when they are about to die. If people like this are not killed in batches, what will he, the governor of Danyang County, do in the future?
Before the army even approached, Lu Wenliang began to make calculations in his mind.
Three days passed by in a flash. Under the gaze of many people around, the three thousand troops led by Yu Biao finally arrived in Yanglai County.
In order to prevent an ambush like last time, as soon as the army approached the outskirts of Yanglai County, a thousand Danyang soldiers received orders and went straight to the woods on both sides to start searching.
In this operation, Lu Wenliang was still very stubborn. With the support of Yu Biao and two thousand state soldiers, he was not afraid of encountering any ambush.
At this moment, he wished he could fight those ambushes in the woods, so that Yu Biao wouldn't have to find any excuses. He could just give the order and two thousand state soldiers would come out in full force. .Ь.
In order to encircle Yanglai County this time, they were fully prepared. Heavy ballistae, catapults, as well as some heavy armored infantry and cavalry all came together.
With such equipment and strength, it can be said that attacking a small county town is easy.
It's a pity that Lu Wenliang's long-cherished ambush was in vain this time.
After all the exploration, Lin
It can be said that there is no one inside. It seems that all the ambush soldiers have withdrawn into the city.
Although I'm a little disappointed, it's okay to just catch the turtle in the jar.
At Lu Wenliang's signal, the Danyang soldiers took the lead and headed straight for Yanglai County ahead.
At this time, Yanglai County was somewhat deserted compared to three days ago. It was deserted, not a single person was around, and even the city gates were closed.
It seemed that they had long expected that Lu Wenliang and Shen Yang would lead the army to counterattack, and they were well prepared, with a posture of being ready.
Looking at the closed city gate in front of him, Lu Wenliang confidently rode forward under the protection of a group of soldiers and stopped about fifty feet away from the city gate.
This is Lu Wenliang's estimated safe position. In a small county town, even if there are sharp archers, it would be good if it could reach thirty feet. Forty feet is basically considered lucky, and fifty feet is simply impossible.
In order to set an example in front of Yu Biao, Lu Wenliang looked indifferent, passed the message through the soldiers, and said coldly.
"Fang Jingzhi, this time I am following the order of Lord Zhou Mu and working with Lord Zhou Wei to investigate Yanglai County's faults. Will you know the crime, Magistrate Fang!"
After the voice fell, Fang Jingzhi appeared again on the tower. Compared to last time, there were a few more unfamiliar faces around him, especially a young man in white who stood out next to him.
Lu Wenliang looked at it slightly. Although he could only get a rough idea due to the distance, according to his calculation, this person was probably the mysterious young man who had a conflict with Shen Yang and made suggestions for Fang Jingzhi.
Fang Jingzhi stood on the city tower and looked at the mighty people and horses below. Although the momentum was amazing, he was very calm and spoke unhurriedly.
"Humph, what Mr. Lu said is interesting. He has brought troops to visit Yanglai County again and again. How is this situation different from attacking a city? Mr. Lu made this move and asked the subordinates to plead guilty. I don't know who committed the crime."
