Chapter 48 New City and County Magistrates
Xinshi County is located in the northwest direction of Wuji County.
In terms of geographical location, Xinshi County cannot compare with Wuji County, but Xinshi County has a strong county magistrate. The county magistrate is He Yun, who is in his early thirties, has a tall figure, a national face, a slightly cold eyes, thin lips, and a powerful manner. He has an extraordinary demeanor. He is a native of Xinshi County. He has not served as Xinshi County for a long time, and has only been half a year.
But in just half a year, He Yun has already taken control of the new city and county.
So far, He Yun has more than a thousand soldiers, several generals and countless staff members, and has strong strength. The purpose of He Yun's purchase of war horses is to further enhance his own strength.
Ma Yuan returned to Xinshi County and reported the robbery of the war horse.
He Yun was furious after hearing this, and immediately summoned his aides and said in a deep voice: "The newly appointed baby county magistrate of Wuji County robbed 600 war horses, which was simply a courageous person. Such a person must be beaten hard. This official intends to lead his troops to Wuji County to get back all the war horses and ask Wang Lei to compensate for the losses. What do you think?"
"Sir, Wuji County is adjacent to Xinshi County. If the adults take the lead in starting the war, once the matter reaches the ears of the provincial master, it will definitely affect the adult's future. I believe that the adults should adopt the strategy of politeness first and then military force, send people to Wuji County first, and ask the county magistrate of Wuji County to return all the war horses. If the matter is completed successfully, the adults can not pursue the matter. If the matter fails, it will not be too late for the adults to lead the army to attack again. Only then can the adults have a reasonable reason and not be criticized by the provincial master."
A staff member stroked the beard under his jaw and said slowly.
He Yun snorted and said, "If you offend me, you must punish me regardless of whether he returns the war horses or not. However, your suggestions are very good. Just follow your suggestions for the time being, first politely and then troop, so as not to ruin my impression in the hearts of the provincial governor."
The staff praised: "Sir, wise, let's make arrangements immediately."
He Yun nodded and discussed with his staff to enhance the strength of the new city and county. In He Yun's view, the black mountain bandits were in chaos, the court lost their prestige, and the country had entered a chaotic world, so they had to strengthen their strength to protect themselves. Because of this, He Yun constantly strengthened his own strength.
After everyone dispersed, the staff immediately arranged personnel to go to Wuji County.
...
Xinshi County and Wuji County are adjacent to each other, and the distance is not far. In less than two days, the envoy representing Xinshi County Magistrate He Yun had arrived at the county town of Wuji County and came to the county government office.
In the hall, Wang Lei sat high above.
Below, there are envoys sent by the magistrates of Xinshi County.
The envoy just bowed casually and did not respect Wang Lei in his words and deeds. He said arrogantly: "The following is the magistrate of Xinshi County and County to inform the adults, and asks the adults to immediately submit to the 600 robbed war horses. If the adults return the war horses, both sides will stop their troops and stop the situation and the situation will be calmed down; if the adults insist on not changing, they will bear the consequences at their own risk."
In the eyes of the envoy, Wang Lei in front of him was just a baby county magistrate.
It is easy to deal with such a child.
Therefore, the envoy's tone and manner in his speech was very arrogant, as if his identity was higher than that of Wang Lei.
Wang Lei sneered twice, waved his hand, and shouted: "Come here!"
A yamen runner walked in with a board in his hand, and Wang Lei ordered: "Call it out!"
The yamen runner got the order without hesitation. He waved the board in his hand and slapped the envoy's back with a bang. Although the force was not strong, it really hit the envoy's back, causing the envoy to stagger and fall to the ground, and his back felt even more painful. He stood up, looked at Wang Lei, and shouted: "You will definitely regret it if you offended the county magistrate of Xinshi County..."
As soon as the words fell, the wooden board in the yamen runner's hand fell down again.
"Bang!!"
The crisp sound of the wooden board hit the envoy's butt, causing the envoy to stagger and fall. This time, a dog even ate shit, causing the body to hurt. Under the stick of the yamen runner, the envoy stumbled and stood up and left as if he was running away.
Wang Lei did not take the envoy's affairs seriously and sent someone to invite Guo Jia and Du Ji to the study.
The three of them gathered together to discuss matters.
Wang Lei said the story of the envoy sent by Xinshi County and said in a deep voice: "The county magistrate of Xinshi County sent someone to demonstrate, and I directly called him back. The envoy was humiliated, and the county magistrate of Xinshi County empathized with it, and he must also feel that he was greatly humiliated and would definitely lead troops to kill him. This is an opportunity I created, and I am not afraid that he would not come, but afraid that he would not come."
Du Ji frowned, thinking that Wang Lei was too ostentatious.
Wang Lei continued: "What we are currently discussing is how to take over the new city and county, but Han Fu is not aware of it. It is quite difficult to control the new city and county without knowing it."
"Difficult, difficult!"
Du Ji shook his head, his eyebrows were solemn.
Guo Jia remained silent, and considered what Wang Lei mentioned. After thinking for a moment, he said, "If we want to take down the new city and county, there are many ways, and I have countless strategies. The key point is to hide Han Fu from the mention, which is a bit difficult."
Du Ji nodded and said, "I agree with Fengxiao!"
Wang Lei said: "I know it's difficult, but to strengthen our strength, we must do this."
"Unless, the people of the An** people take control of the new cities and counties."
Guo Jia frowned and made a suggestion.
A hint of joy flashed in Wang Lei's eyes and said, "It is indeed very difficult to control the new city and county, but it is not impossible to operate." After a pause, Wang Lei said, "The plan of Fengxiao is an idea, but it is not perfect enough. Think about it carefully. Now, let's discuss how to deal with the new city and county army."
The three of them discussed in the room and quickly determined the way to deal with it.
...
New city and county government.
After the envoy returned in a panic, he met the county magistrate He Yun in the hall. The envoy was sad and said loudly: "Sir, Wang Lei, the county magistrate of Wuji County, is too arrogant. Just as Bei Zhi told you that you would ask Wang Lei to return the war horse, Wang Lei brutally and unreasonably asked the yamen runners to bomb Bei Zhi out of the county yamen. Bei Zhi's waist, buttocks and other parts were severely hit, and he is still injured."
"Okay, Wang Lei, you're too bullying!"
He Yun stood up with murderous intent in his eyes. Since he became the county magistrate of Xinshi County, he has enjoyed the feeling of starry sky supporting the moon. Now that Wang Lei disobeyed his decision, the anger in He Yun's heart has been surging.
Must fight back!
He Yun took a deep breath and shouted, "Come here!"
"exist!"
A soldier quickly walked in and clasped his fists.
He Yun waved his hand and ordered: "Change all the soldiers from Xinshi County and follow the official to Wuji County. This time, the county magistrate Wang Lei of Wuji County will kneel down and beg for mercy."
"Sir, think twice!"
The staff stood up and said, "It is a good thing for the lord to lead the troops to go, but after all the soldiers of the army left, the new city and county will have no defensive power. Please leave some soldiers."
He Yun sneered twice and said, "I led the public to go. The county magistrate of Wuji County will definitely lead the public to defend, and there is no intention to attack. If you are too worried, go down and prepare and send troops with me."
The staff sighed softly, without too much persuasion, and left the county government to prepare.
Chapter completed!
