In Muxi County under the jurisdiction of Jiangzhou Prefecture, thousands of bandits have come from nowhere in the past few days and are looting everywhere. The surrounding people are disturbed and have no peace. They are also bold enough to attack the county seat. The panicked Muxi County Magistrate Li Tailong has locked up tightly.

At the city gate, hundreds of strong soldiers from the countryside were ordered together, plus three squads of government officials went to the city to guard it. Even the young and middle-aged people in the city came to the city with wooden sticks and shovels, and then Muxi County was barely defended.

The county magistrate Li Tailong immediately wrote a letter to the county governor and asked two strong cavalry to rush to Jiangzhou City with the letter to ask for help. With the virtue of these ruthless bandits, if the county town is broken, why not massacre the city? Is this okay?

Li Tailong thought about what was wrong, and at the same time wrote letters to the two surrounding county government offices to remind them to take precautions.

Thanks to these two letters from Mr. Li, the nearby Gaofang County and Dayan County were prepared in advance. As expected, these gangsters failed to take over Muxi County and turned around to attack the nearby Gaofang County. Seeing Gaofang County

They were also prepared and turned around to attack Dayan County, but they were also repulsed.

This group of thieves are still determined to be evil and hang around in several counties, coming to harass people from time to time. The people in the city are miserable. These bandits are just like dogs. Even if they don't bite, they are scary.

Three days later in the afternoon, in the back house of the Jiangzhou County Sheriff's Yamen, Jin County Shouzheng was discussing the matter with Tang Jiu Sheng, Jin Yunzhang, Tong Liang and Fatty. Tang Jiu Sheng was very proud, "Everyone, what is my idea? This time we will do it."

Now we can legitimately recruit troops and train the troops to be brave and protect the country and the people!"

It turns out that Tang Jiusheng bribed the leader of this group of bandits and deliberately looted several counties in Jiangzhou, creating the illusion that bandits were infested in Jiangzhou. This gave him an excuse to recruit soldiers and train local braves without arousing suspicion. In the future, these mountain bandits will be allowed to

The thief would come out every once in a while to deceive others.

The fat man chuckled and said: "Old Tang, you are the one who has the most damaging ideas! Now I have been promoted to coach of the team training!"

Tong Liang squirted out a sip of tea and said disdainfully: "Forget it if you are the team training envoy, the team training coach, is this also called an official? It is smaller than a sesame mung bean! Little fat man, if you are willing to be the team training coach, then you can

Go ahead and do it, I, my old boy, have no objections and will never argue with you!"

The fat man shook his big head and said with a joking smile: "No, no, it's up to you, old boy. I can't take away your official position, fat man. You, a great scholar with a lot of knowledge, come to be the coach of the team. What can I do, fat man?"

It’s funny even thinking about it. But if you don’t do this, how can you deceive others?”

Everyone was talking and laughing when suddenly a man floated down from the roof. This man was as light as

Hongmao, with white hair and white eyebrows, tall figure and ugly appearance, is none other than Yang Jingzhong, the notorious internal affairs manager of the Great Shang Kingdom.

Yang Jingzhong stood at the door, looking at Tang Jiusheng in the room and smiled slightly, "Young Master Tang, are you okay?"

Tang Jiusheng was startled and quickly stood up, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Hey, it's the chief manager, what kind of wind is it that brings you here today?" Tang Jiusheng turned around and introduced to Sheriff Jin and others: "Master Jin, Yun

Brother Zhang, Brother Tong, this is Lord Zhongshu Ling Yang Jingzhong Yang!"

Sheriff Jin was shocked and hurriedly stepped forward to salute and said with a smile: "I didn't know that Master Yang is here, but I am not here to greet you. Please forgive me!" Jin Yunzhang and Tong Liang also came forward to salute.

In fact, Yang Jingzhong has a bad reputation, and everyone dislikes the general manager in their hearts, but no one dares to show this emotion on their face. After all, this is a boss who can kill people if he turns against him. Only the fat man is standing there.

He didn't take it seriously, and naughtily went over and touched Yang Jingzhong's white eyebrows, "Old man Yang, long time no see!"

Yang Jingzhong didn't pay attention to the fat man's behavior. He laughed at County Sheriff Jin and joked: "You're welcome, Lord County Sheriff. You are the biggest in Jiangzhou City. We are very happy to have a cup of tea here."

Come on!" Sheriff Jin hurriedly gave up his seat to Yang Jingzhong and made tea himself. This man really couldn't afford to offend!

Yang Jingzhong sat on the chair with a smile on his face, "Mr. Tang, I heard that you were injured a few days ago. Our family is very concerned about you. I wonder if you are feeling better now?"

Tang Jiusheng smiled and said: "Thank you, General Manager, for caring about me. My injury has improved a lot, but I don't know why you came to Jiangzhou, General Manager?"

Yang Jingzhong sighed: "Our family went to Yuzhou, and together with Qi Daoming, the envoy of the Southwest Road, rushed to the Pingxi Palace to meet Yin Quan. The main reason was that our family had installed a spy in the palace. I heard that he had betrayed.

Our family was worried, so we went to see it in person, but to our surprise, she actually helped Yin Quan assassinate our family. Fortunately, our family knew the news in advance, otherwise we would have almost been killed."

Tang Jiusheng said with a smile: "It's probably because Yin Quan wanted you to follow him to achieve great things, but when you refused, he took the murderous intention. Although Yin Quan has high ambitions, he is too small-minded and does not have enough vision, so he cannot achieve great things.

, it’s the typical kind of high-minded but low-handedness.”

Yang Jingzhong said: "Who says it's not the case? But if Banzai is so kind to our family today, how can our family follow him to rebel against King Xi? Oh, by the way, we just heard you say that we want to train troops in Jiangzhou? Jiangzhou

Being so close to Yuzhou, aren't you afraid that Yin Quan will send someone to assassinate your training officer?"

Tong Liang couldn't help laughing at the side, "My dear, Tong Liang, I came from Tianchang Mansion and was a scholar who didn't even pass the examination. If I am to be the military training officer, Yin Quan will treat a little-known and poor scholar like me like me."

Do you take it seriously? That kind of Yin Quan is no longer Yin Quan!"

Yang Jingzhong laughed and said, "It's true that you are here! In fact, our family came here this time because we want to have a meal with the Sheriff, so we can talk slowly at the dinner table!"

Jin Dazhong stood up and said with a flattered look on his face: "Oh, Mr. Yang, you are serious! You are an honored guest that I cannot even invite! With your presence, my little county governor's office will be in full bloom!"

Yunzhang, send the order quickly and prepare the best food and wine!"

Jin Yunzhang agreed and walked out the door. Jin Dazhong thought for a while and called Jin Yunzhang to stop again, "Oh, forget it. You stay here and talk to Mr. Yang. I will go to the kitchen to give instructions myself!"

The dinner was sumptuous, and Yang Jingzhong was in high spirits. After drinking some wine, he chatted with Tang Jiu Sheng about some things at the dinner table. Tang Jiu Sheng took the opportunity to test again and persuaded Yang Jingzhong to return part of his power to the emperor. Yang Jingzhong readily agreed.

Tang Jiusheng was very surprised. He didn't know what kind of medicine the chief executive was selling in his gourd.

Tang Jiu Sheng didn't know what Yang Jingzhong was thinking. Maybe he was thinking too much, or maybe he had other plans. In any case, it is a good thing to return part of the government to the emperor. Take your time! Tang Jiu Sheng was wondering whether this matter was appropriate. Just now he

When asked if there was anything wrong with what he said, Yang Jingzhong wiped his mouth with his sleeve without caring about his image, and said that he had eaten and wanted to talk to Tang Jiusheng about something privately.

As a result, the two of them chatted for half the night in the garden of the Sheriff's Mansion. No one knew the content, and both of them kept it secret. After the chat, Yang Jingzhong quietly left the Sheriff's Mansion, asking Tang Jiusheng to take his place.

Thank you Lord Sheriff for your hospitality.

The next morning, the Jiangzhou County Sheriff's Office sent a thousand soldiers to reinforce Muxi County. A few days later, news came that the bandits had been driven away. In order to prevent these bandits from coming again, the County Sheriff's Office waited in Muxi.

The county began to recruit troops, organize team training, and train local heroes. A failed scholar named Tong Liang became the team training coach.

It is said that the reason why Tong Liang became the regimental training coach was because he was a good friend of the nephew of the county governor, so he got such a lucrative position. Everyone in the county sneered at him, what kind of soldiers could such a person train?
