Chapter 104: Rogue and Invincible

Raising troops is not just about talking!

Without enough wealth, it will collapse at any time!

Soldiers are human beings too and have to live. Many of them join the army to support their families!

Wu Xin understood what Sun Yuan meant, weighed it for a moment and responded: "Jurong's army has been announced for recruitment. It can be withdrawn! The remaining two, continue to recruit as many as there are available!"

"Ah? Is there any difference?"

Sun Yuan was startled, then blurted out a question, and then reminded: "According to the laws of the Sui Dynasty, your current private army has been organized, and it is easy to cause trouble!"

Wu Xin thought for a while and quickly responded: "There is a difference! There are definitely not many Guards troops, and they will not exceed the full range of Jurong County. As for employment... well, employment, they are just long-term workers, and they are not registered in the military. Can you say

What?"

"ah?!"

Sun Yuan was stunned, his face changed drastically, and he looked at Wu Xin in disbelief.

Even Wen Renzhong, Wei Peng, Hong Bo and others present looked at Wu Xin in shock and horror.

Let’s leave aside the militia theory for now. It’s just an unreasonable statement anyway. There is no evidence, and it’s okay if no important ministers investigate. However, if someone insists on it, it will definitely be a nuisance!

The most important thing is the personal guards that Wu Xin talks about...

What is the Guards?

Generally speaking, only the Generalissimo of Arms and Horses can have this term. The others are called tribesmen, retainers, etc., and their number is very small. The last type is the rebels, those who intend to rebel, will be called the Guards.

What does this mean?

Everyone present is not stupid, and is quite smart!

"This county... will not and does not want to rebel. As long as the Sui Dynasty is still there, this is the county's promise. However, things are unpredictable and troubled times are looming now. This move is just a precautionary measure to protect ourselves!"

Wu Xin frowned, but he didn't expect that a momentary gaffe would make everyone aware of his ambition and rebellion. After thinking about it, he simply explained frankly.

"Gulu..."

Sun Yuan swallowed hard and said in a hoarse and trembling voice: "Da Sui...is the crisis really that bad?"

Everyone nodded in confusion and confusion.

Nowadays, the Great Sui Empire is so powerful that no one dares to disobey it. It also has millions of soldiers, so that the barbarians from all over the world dare not act rashly. Is there anyone who dares to rebel? Is there any force that can overthrow the Great Sui Dynasty?

Wu Xin pondered and asked rhetorically: "What do you think will happen if...the Holy Lord launches another expedition and it starts soon?"

"We have just been defeated, and the impact of the first expedition has not yet recovered. The Holy Emperor will not go on another expedition, right?" Wei Peng couldn't help but retort, no normal person would do that, let alone the Civil and Military Holy Emperor?!

"Everything in the world is unpredictable! As expected, the Holy Spirit will launch a second expedition in at least half a year. By then... what will happen to the world?"

Wu Xin pretended to be profound, looked at the prosperous Jurong City with a worried look on his face and said. After a pause, he sighed: "Your Majesty... I'm still a little anxious!"

Sun Yuan's eyes widened and he blurted out in disbelief: "Could it be that...the rumors that the Holy One wants to weaken or even destroy the noble clan are not rumors?"

Wu Xin was silent, looking at everyone present with sharp eyes, and solemnly reminded him without answering:

"What is said here must not be revealed at all, including to anyone in the family!"

"yes!"

Sun Yuan's body trembled, his face turned pale and he answered solemnly, and the others also looked solemn as they promised.

Who dares to say such nonsense?!

It ranges from the serious crime of rebellion to the less serious crime of deceiving the public with evil words.

Wu Xin nodded and did not dwell on the topic any more. He looked at Wu Lang and ordered: "Commander Wu Lang will take the lead and bring the Xin Wuwei reserve army back to Silver Spring Valley. Under familiar training, the county will return after a while!"

This is also the tangled place that Wu Xin is unable to separate himself from.

Now the county magistrate has not found a suitable candidate, so Wu Xin can only take charge personally.

However, Wu Xin did not train them personally, so the newcomers to Xin Wuwei could only develop the iron-blooded evil spirit, but not the military soul. If they were gathered into an army in a hurry, the formed military soul of the God of War might be brought down.

"Lord! The envoy from the county and city wants to see you!"

At this moment, a Xinwuwei came to report.

"It came very quickly, can't you wait?"

Wu Xin sneered and murmured, and then motioned for Xin Wuwei to bring him up.

"Sir..." Sun Yuan stopped talking.

The trouble of killing former county lieutenant Gao Huan is coming!

Sun Yuan and others still don't know that the trouble is not only this, but also Wu Xin's misappropriation of autumn taxes and autumn crops. Otherwise, it would not be just worry!

Only Jurong Dianshi and Wu Xin's confidants knew about the autumn tax and autumn grain, and it had not been spread for the time being. Dianshi did not dare to talk nonsense. He had even been suffering from insomnia and nightmares in recent days, and tried not to appear in front of Wu Xin for fear of being silenced by Wu Xin!

"County Magistrate Wu Xinwu, the day of autumn taxes has arrived. Other counties have already paid their taxes. Where is Jurong County?"

After a while, a group of four or five people went upstairs, and an old man in brocade clothes just appeared. With a domineering aura, he asked loudly!

Wu Xin had no expression on his face and responded naturally: "No! It was embezzled by Gao Xianwei and Li Xiancheng. I don't know where it went! How can I pay it to the county? I didn't even have the money to clean up the mess for them!"

"Presumptuous! In his position, he plans his own affairs. Is it possible that the magistrate of Wu County doesn't understand this?"

The old man in brocade glared and scolded angrily, then sneered and continued: "Besides, all of Gao County Lieutenant's wealth was confiscated by Wu County Magistrate. Aren't the autumn taxes and autumn grains in it? Did he grow wings and fly by himself?"

Wu Xin looked indifferent and responded calmly: "I don't know! According to Gao Xianwei's confidants, Gao Xianwei was collecting money for Wang Juncheng, and he probably has secretly handed it over. You should ask Wang Juncheng about these, not this county!"

"Bold! How dare you frame the Lord County Cheng?"

The face of the old man in brocade changed drastically. In the later stage of Qi refining, his momentum exploded, like a storm and waves pressing down on Wu Xin and yelling angrily.

Wu Xin still responded calmly: "It was not a frame-up made by this county, but by Gao County Lieutenant's confidants! At that time, all the forces in Jurong gathered together, everyone saw it and heard it with their own ears!"

"Well……"

The old man in brocade clothes was speechless and his face was extremely ugly. He didn't expect that Magistrate Wu could be so difficult to deal with at such a young age and feel so calm.

His thoughts were changing, and the old man in brocade continued again: "Hmph! Does Magistrate Wu want to rebel? Even if the autumn tax is insufficient, hasn't Magistrate Wu extorted countless amounts of money? The income of Guigu Trading Company alone is several times the autumn tax, right?

?Can’t we make up for the autumn tax?”

"They are completely two different things. How can they be confused?"

Wu Xin frowned and asked of course, and then continued: "Those are donations from many merchants to save the people of Jurong. How can they be extorted? How can they be used to fill Gao County Lieutenant's black account? It makes no sense at all!"

After finishing the words, he continued with a smile: "As for rebellion, it's better to speak cautiously... I don't know who wants to rebel. Anyway, this county and its cronies will never have the guts to steal autumn taxes or steal autumn grain!"

"How brave! Magistrate Wu actually dares to offend the superior and frame the superior!"

The old man in golden clothes narrowed his eyes, scolded in a cold voice, and then continued: "Everyone knows that the announced charity amount is less than 200,000, but the money extorted by Magistrate Wu is at least over 10 million, right? Besides, Wu Xin

There is a large-scale recruitment of troops. It is said that as of now, the number has exceeded 100,000. What does Magistrate Wu want to do?"

"One code, one code! This county also wants to ask the county magistrate where the autumn taxes and autumn grains have gone!"

Wu Xin's face darkened and he asked solemnly, which caused the old man in brocade to turn from dark to purple. He then heard Wu Xin continue:

"Take it from the people and use it for the people! No matter how much charity money is, it can only be used for the construction of Jurong and has nothing to do with the autumn tax! As for conscription... it is just employment, not military registration, just for repair...

Gao Xianwei, the confidant of the county magistrate, has been wreaking havoc for many years, leaving behind a mess!"

"As expected of a martial demon, he is indeed sharp-tongued and sharp-tongued...does he have any dignity?" The old man in brocade clothes was confused in his heart and shouted angrily.

"Talk about superiority and inferiority?! What's your status in this county and what's your status? If you want to talk, you can..."

Wu Xin said with a sneer, then changed his tone and said: "Throw it away!"

Throw it away?!

This is the third floor of the pavilion. It’s more than ten feet high. Do you want to throw someone to death?!
