Chapter 827

When asked about the Wu family in Zhenhai, Chen Zuqiang kept calm and hesitated for a long time before saying: "Sir, the Wu family in Zhenhai... They are a powerful force in the local area. They colluded with the pirates and plundered the people. This time, they cooperated internally and externally to conquer Zhenhai.

county..."

Long Chen looked at Chen Zu quietly and asked him to speak slowly.

"The people of Zhenhai were so filled with hatred that they fought back together with the government. The Wu family was destroyed, but Zhenhai County was still breached."

Long Chen nodded and asked: "Didn't you just say that no one colluded with the pirates? Why did the Wu family collude with the pirates again?"

Chen Zu looked embarrassed and hesitated: "The Wu family has been killed, so the official said that no one colluded with the pirates."

Long Chen suddenly said: "Yes, that's right."

Chen Zu smiled awkwardly, and the officials from the governor's office next to him also laughed.

Chen Zu was afraid that Long Chen would continue to ask, so he said: "Sir, the reception banquet is ready. Please take a seat."

Long Chen smiled and said: "Okay."

Chen Zu led him to the back office, where several tables of wine and food were neatly arranged. Long Chen sat at the upper table, and the governor Chen Zu sat with him.

"Let's toast Master Long together."

Chen Zu raised his glass, the officials toasted together, and Long Chen laughed and drank a glass.

Zhang Qian looked solemn next to her, while Wu Jian stood guard and refused to drink.

After a while of drinking and drinking, Long Chen seemed to be familiar with Chen Zu and his gang, and both parties were not so restrained.

"Chen Governor, this time the Holy Emperor only gave me 1,000 soldiers and horses. There are 100,000 pirates. There is a huge disparity in strength. I'm afraid I won't be able to kill them."

Long Chen put his arm around Chen Zu's shoulder and held the wine glass in the other hand.

Chen Zu said: "Sir, the pirates are powerful. I suggest you not to fight until the pirates retreat on their own."

Long Chen wondered: "The Holy One asked me to wipe out the pirates. If I passively avoid fighting, I'm afraid I won't be able to do the job."

Chen Zu looked blushing, but Long Chen knew that he was not drunk.

Chen Zu said helplessly: "Sir, the total number of troops in our governor's office is only 3,000, which is not enough even if we add it all up."

Long Chen said: "So, I am asking the Holy One to allow me to recruit troops on the spot. Does this local recruitment need to be arranged by Governor Chen?"

Chen Zu immediately agreed: "This is no problem. If your Majesty has your orders, your subordinates will definitely obey them."

"It's just that the local people are afraid of pirates. I don't dare to guarantee whether they can recruit soldiers."

Long Chen picked up the jug and poured a glass for Chen Zu. Chen Zu hurriedly held the cup with both hands and took it: "Understanding this, I just need the help of the governor to arrange it."

The dinner was very pleasant, and the drinking was very enjoyable. The maids of the house put on the candlesticks, a band of musicians came up, and then the dancers danced.

Chen Zu pointed at one of the dancers and said, "Sir, what do you think of that?"

Long Chen knew what Chen Zu meant and said with a smile: "Very good, but we have just arrived here and the pirates have not yet been defeated. Please slow down and leave it to me."

Chen Zu smiled and said: "No problem."

After watching the singing and dancing, it was already Xu hour.

Chen Zu said: "Sir, the resting place has been arranged. Please take a rest."

Long Chen declined politely: "The soldiers and horses are outside the city. I'm afraid of causing trouble, so I'd better go back to rest outside the city and come back tomorrow."

Without waiting for Chen Zu to persuade him to stay, Long Chen led Zhang Qian, Wu Jian and Xiaoqi to escort him out of the Governor's Mansion, while Chen Zu and a group of officials were sent outside the city.

"Please come back, Governor Chen. Tomorrow Japanese officials will go to the city to recruit troops."

Long Chen patted Chen Zu's shoulder.

Chen Zu paid homage and said, "Your Excellency cannot stay at the Governor's Mansion, and I will feel very uneasy."

Long Chen smiled and said: "When the pirates are defeated, give me a big room. I want all the dancers tonight."

Chen Zu's face lit up and he said with a smile: "I remember it, I will remember it!"

After saying goodbye, Long Chen returned to the camp. Lonely Carrie was patrolling, and the surrounding campfires were brightly lit.

"My lord is back."

Lonely Jiali has always been very nervous, worried that Long Chen is in danger.

Zhang Qian asked worriedly: "Sir, you drank so much of their wine."

Long Chen smiled and Wu Jian said: "My lord didn't drink. This is your unique skill."

Chen Zu's identity was suspicious. How could Long Chen drink their wine? The food on the table was not touched at all.

Zhang Qian asked doubtfully: "Is Colonel Wu so familiar with you?"

Wu Jian smiled awkwardly and did not answer. He couldn't say: My young general, I definitely know.

Long Chen said: "I'm fine. I didn't drink a drop of the wine just now."

"You guys rest, I'll go relieve myself."

Zhang Qian immediately followed him into the darkness. Dugu Jiali said in surprise: "My lord is making trouble, General Zhang is still following?"

Wu Jian smiled awkwardly: "This... the princess ordered General Zhang to protect you personally. Of course, we will do it together."

Dugu Jiali had a question mark on her face. It was the first time she had seen such a close-fitting protection: "This is too close-fitting."

Long Chen walked to the river. In the cool water, some fluorescent things were swimming under the water.

"You stay out of the way while I wait for someone else."

Long Chen was waiting for Feng He to come over.

Zhang Qian disagreed: "No, what if there is danger?"

Long Chen smiled and said: "My cultivation level is higher than yours now, right?"

Zhang Qian still disagreed: "At least I can help you block the knife."

this...

Feng He came out of the darkness and said with a smile: "General Zhang's loyalty can be seen in the sun and the moon. No wonder my lord trusts you so much."

Zhang Qian drew her dagger to warn him. She didn't trust Feng He very much.

"What's going on in Qianjiang County?"

Long Chen asked.

The people from Xichang entered the city and could come back to inquire about the news. Long Chen's entry into the city to inquire seemed unnecessary.

But for things like marching and fighting, you have to go to the front line in person to experience it firsthand.

Feng He said: "It's very complicated. This city has been controlled by pirates. The actual controller is Xu Zhi. You went to Xu Zhi during the day. How brave you are."

Long Chen went to Xu's house for a stroll during the day and bought Wu Xiangyun back. Feng He saw it.

Long Chen asked: "Besides Xu Zhi, who else is there? What happened to the governor Chen Zu?"

Feng He said: "In addition to Xu Zhi, there are two others. One is named Yuan Tengfei and the other is Wang Zhong. The three of them jointly control Qianjiang County. Xu Zhi is the leader of the thieves."

Zhang Qian couldn't help but ask: "You said Qianjiang County was controlled by pirates, but the city seems to be in order and the people's lives have not been affected."

I went to the city yesterday to see it, and at least it seemed normal on the surface.

Long Chen said: "Qianjiang County is where they sell stolen goods. They have to maintain order, so it seems pretty good."

To put it bluntly, these people regard this city as a stronghold for selling stolen goods and must protect the place.

Just like Xu's house during the day, there is a black market inside, where everything is bought and sold.

Feng He said: "Yes, that's it. They regard this place as their own territory. In order to attract buyers to sell stolen goods, the order here looks good."

Long Chen asked: "What happened to the governor Chen Zu?"

This is what Long Chen is most confused about. Since Chen Zu is a pirate, why should he report it?

This problem cannot be explained.
