Nanfengzhou
When news of the defeat at Bingdaokou reached here, all the county and government offices were in chaos.
The person who is most worried about this matter is Wang Peng, the governor. After all, he is the highest official in the state.
"Lu Ming, you immediately dispatch all the soldiers to defend Nanfeng City for me no matter what!"
"Ge Qingyu, I order the people you recruited before to practice for me. In five days, I want to see them standing at the top of the city to defend Nanfeng City!"
"Du Youfeng, please help me move reinforcements to other counties. If any officials refuse to comply, they will be treated as treason."
Wang Peng quickly issued three orders, and the three of them immediately handed over and left.
Just when Wang Peng felt that it was still a little unsafe, Man rushed in.
Seeing Man Chong, Wang Peng's eyes flashed with strange color, because he finally got the good news!
"Sir, the imperial court has issued a rescue order, just let us hold on for more than a month!"
Wang Peng had a smile on his face when he heard that he only had to stick to it for more than a month, but what he didn't know was that this order had been changed, and it had just been changed!
"Very good, please help me convey the message and ask Du Youfeng to recruit county soldiers as soon as possible." Wang Peng said.
"Yes, sir." Man Chong slightly cupped his hands, but did not leave.
"What else is there?" Wang Peng frowned.
Man Chong thought about his words for a while, then raised his hand again and said, "Sir, the Xu family in Zheyang County already stinks, do you want us..."
Seeing Man Chong wiping his neck, Wang Peng nodded again and again: "Remember, we must get the recipe for Yellow River Drunk!"
"Yes, sir, I will definitely complete the mission!" Man Chong showed a gloomy smile, turned around and left the Governor's Mansion...
Zheyang County Government
While Mo Dongsheng was still reprimanding Chen Yanhe, news of the Northern Xinjiang Army's defeat at the crossing reached the county government.
Hearing such big news, Mo Dongsheng was startled at first, and then smiled inexplicably. Fortunately, he was prepared, otherwise he would have been helpless at this time.
Chen Yanhe, who was kneeling on the ground, was dumbfounded, because the Chen family was in a villa in the north of Zheyang County. If Nanfeng City failed to stop the Beimang army, then the Chen family would be completely doomed!
"Sir, I realize my mistake, and I am willing to give a thousand taels of silver to the Xu family as compensation." Chen Yanhe said quickly.
"oh?"
Mo Dongsheng was slightly startled. He never expected that this old boy would take money to eliminate the disaster so quickly.
Xu Que had told Mo Dongsheng before that as long as Chen Yanhe was willing to bleed, he would let Chen Yanhe go. Unexpectedly, the news of the defeat at the military crossing helped him...
Seeing that Mo Dongsheng didn't understand, Chen Yanhe said again: "If you are still not satisfied, sir, then I am willing to pay you two thousand taels of silver. Please let me go back."
"Is that so?"
Mo Dongsheng was really hesitant at this time. He thought he could knock more, but looking at Mo Dongsheng's appearance, he still held back.
"In that case, go back quickly and prepare some silver. I'll ask Cao Wei to pick it up later." Mo Dongsheng pretended to be thoughtful.
"Thank you, sir." Chen Yanhe stood up and raised his hands, turned around and hurriedly left the county office.
Seeing Chen Yanhe in such a hurry, Mo Dongsheng remembered Xu Que's words on the embankment that day...
"This brat, this is what your original intention was!" Mo Dongsheng smiled bitterly and shook his head.
If he had known that he could earn so much money for nothing, he should have agreed to Xu Que at that time. The result was great, the fat around his mouth was gone...
And just when he was thinking about the expansion of the new city, the official seal suddenly flashed.
Mo Dongsheng didn't hesitate, picked up the official seal, tapped it lightly, and a literary energy spread instantly.
When he saw that it was the governor who wanted to recruit soldiers, he hesitated a little, because Xu Que had previously told him that if it was a matter of governor, he would ignore it. If the other party wanted to be tough, just pull him off. .
"Your Majesty, take the order!"
Mo Dongsheng said politely, put away the officials and walked out of the main hall.
When he left the mansion, Mo Dongsheng came to Cao Wei. After explaining a few words to him, he flew towards the Xu mansion.
At this moment, in the Xu Mansion, the servants were quickly packing up various things, as if preparing for an escape.
Seeing four or five carriages driving out of Xu Mansion, Mo Dongsheng's eyes twitched a few times. Is it necessary to move so early?
"Brother Mo is here, why didn't you notify me so that I could have my servants prepare some refreshments for you." Xu Maocai said with a smile as he cupped his hands.
Mo Dongsheng didn't care about Xu Maocai's words, but asked: "Brother Xu, are you starting to move?"
"Oh, it wasn't me who moved, it was my two sons." Xu Maocai said with a smile: "They said they would move here in advance to get used to it, so as not to worry about not being able to adapt in a short period of time."
The corners of Mo Dongsheng's eyes twitched. He didn't believe this. Besides, the embankment had just been completed and the foundation of the new county seat had just been laid. It would take more than a month to build it.
What Mo Dongsheng didn't know was that the dilapidated houses on the river beach were gone, and various simple houses had even appeared. Even the ground was plowed a foot deep by the refugees. According to Xu Que, he didn't I hope people will live on top of the graves.
"Brother Mo, are you here because of the military crossing?" Xu Maocai asked.
Mo Dongsheng sighed: "Yes, I really fulfilled Nephew Xu Xian's guess. Now Nanfeng Prefecture will not be peaceful."
Xu Maocai nodded in agreement. In fact, he had just heard the news, but he didn't expect that Mo Dongsheng would come so quickly.
"Brother Mo, let's sit inside first. We'll discuss this matter later," Xu Maocai said.
"Okay." Mo Dongsheng nodded and followed Xu Maocai into the main hall.
As the servants finished serving tea, the Xu family also arrived in the main hall.
"Why haven't you seen nephew Xu Quexian?" Mo Dongsheng asked.
"This kid went out early in the morning, saying he was going to study new things." Horseman Wang Ruo said with a smile while playing with his whip.
When Mo Dongsheng heard what Wang Ruo said, and then thought about Xu Que's novel things, he understood.
"I just received a recruitment order from the governor Wang Peng. He wants to take away most of the government's troops. So, I came here to ask nephew Xu Xian what he can do?" Mo Dongsheng said.
Hearing the recruitment order again, Xu Maocai glanced at Xu Fan. Xu Fan understood, nodded and stood up and said, "Uncle Mo, please rest assured. I have already told you that this recruitment order will be gone tomorrow."
Mo Dongsheng didn't understand very well, so he asked: "Why is it gone tomorrow?"
"Because of this thing!" Xu Fan stepped forward and handed Mo Dongsheng an account: "This is what I prepared for Uncle Mo. As long as Uncle Mo submits this thing, Uncle Mo will not only be promoted, but also protect Zheyang County." Peace!”
When Mo Dongsheng saw a letter included in the account, he immediately opened the letter and checked it.
When he read the contents of the letter, he was shocked for a long time, because the letter not only explained how to deal with Wang Peng, but even the evidence of the crime and Qian Tong were in Xu Que's hands. Such methods... really amazing!
"Brother Mo, are you satisfied?" Xu Maocai asked with a smile.
"Satisfied, I can't repay the kindness of my second brother. When I get promoted, I will make the Xu family famous!" Mo Dongsheng stood up and thanked him.
"Brother Mo, let's forget about making a name for ourselves. As Que'er said, our Xu family hasn't had the time to show up yet. When our Xu family is born in the future, it won't be too late for Brother Mo to help!" Xu Maocai said with a smile.
Mo Dongsheng was puzzled, but he nodded and agreed.
"Okay, let's discuss what to do next." Xu Maocai said to everyone.
At this time, everyone also had various ideas and plans, and these things were all built on the new city.
Regarding these thoughts, Xu Fan also copied them down. When Xu Que comes back, they will also ask Xu Que for these suggestions.
Just when everyone was thinking about the new city, Li An stood up and said: "Second Master, Lord Mo County, although the new city is already under construction, have you ever thought about how to deal with the enemy Beimang army?"
Everyone was stunned. They had been thinking about how to defend before, but they really had not thought about how to fight.
"Mr. Li, do you have any idea?" Mo Dongsheng asked politely.
"Lord County Lord, you can call me Li An. I'm just an official." Li An slightly cupped his hands and said, "Meng County is now managed by two generals, Ma Guanxing and Zhang Feng. If I expected it right, they are waiting for me." It’s an opportunity for the big master to come out, so I want to negotiate with the two generals. Firstly, I can come up with a battle strategy, and secondly, we can also have a helper..."
