In order to repel the group of wild monsters, Kinoji also suffered nearly ten casualties.
Despite his unimpressive appearance, Wen Hui was a local magistrate appointed by the consular government, and he had the minimum correct understanding. Wen Hui judged that the situation this year was unusual and that it would only become more and more difficult to continue to hold on, so he proposed to the settlers
It is recommended to temporarily leave and seek refuge in this city.
This was the most correct judgment made by Wen Hui during his two years in office, but it received a cold response from the settlers.
In the political structure of the territorial state, Liyang Mansion is taken for granted as the parent, while Kinoji is a bit like a rebellious teenager. He usually lives well and does not take his parents seriously, but when trouble comes, he can't shamelessly ask for help.
.No matter how hard Wen Hui tried to persuade, he was still completely unable to persuade those stubborn craftsmen whose heads were full of muscles.
Seeing that the situation was getting worse, Wen Hui was so anxious that he could do nothing.
After racking his brains after racking his brains, the helpless Ji Zheng finally came up with a not-so-smart solution.
Wen Hui first wrote a letter to the Changxia Palace for help, requesting that the Yuqi Battalion be sent to assist Kinye Ji Sali. The Yuqi Battalion is an elite cavalry group well-known in various countries, and it is also a force organization loyal to Liyang Prefecture. Its arrival at Kinye Ji is inevitable.
It can greatly strengthen the power of Ji Zheng's speech, and when they see the majestic Yuqi camp, the settlers may change their minds——
In other words, Wen Hui wanted to force Kinojisa to leave the danger zone by creating a fait accompli.
Of course, such an operation cannot be called a standard. However, in the history of Liyang Territory, there is indeed a precedent of using troops to forcefully evacuate a colony. As for the precedent of stubborn persistence that resulted in the destruction of a colony, the record is several times higher than the former!
The people of the territory are the most precious resource of the territory, and the management and protection of population resources are the responsibilities entrusted to Ji Zheng. In this sense, Wen Hui's judgment is not wrong. Even if the measures taken are a bit extreme, it is understandable, at least Gu
After hearing this, Chen felt impressed by the unremarkable Fat Ji Zheng in front of him.
"What a nonsense!"
Zhang Ji's expression and voice were filled with anger. As the authority of Changxia Palace, it was certainly impossible for him to approve such an illegal operation. "If this is the case, then the first thing you have to do is to report the situation in the letter.
, instead of using your brains and doing things without permission! If the government really sends the Feather Cavalry Battalion to help, but is damaged by monsters on the way, will you be responsible for the result? "
Few superiors like subordinates who make decisions without authorization, and the authority of the leadership does not tolerate provocation. Although Wen Hui's behavior is excusable due to circumstances, it is unforgivable due to logic. If he is pursued according to "lying about military information", then wait for Wen Hui
I'm afraid the punishment is not only dismissal from office and investigation, but also exile to hard labor.
"I'm in a humble position... There's nothing I can do about my humble position! Please forgive me! Please forgive me!"
Wen Hui kept banging his head on the floor, and there was a cry in his voice. Unfortunately, his round pumpkin-like face weakened the tragic effect, and instead made Gu Chen, who was watching, look a little funny. After all, Ji Zheng is also the parent official who governs the place.
, the fat man named Wen Hui is the only one to be so useless when his parents are officials.
Compared to the domineering officials who had become officials, Gu Chen felt that the trembling Fat Ji Zheng in front of him was more interesting. In addition, although when he accepted the commission, he thought that he would make the most of the soy sauce this time, but he did not expect that Kino Ji
This is an unexpected and bizarre situation, and it seems impossible to completely stay out of it.
"Sir Zhang Ji, I have a few words to ask Ji Zheng. Is it okay?"
"Huh?"
Gu Chen spoke unexpectedly, and the messenger with a frosty face showed a look of being caught off guard. In terms of authority, the Department of Juvenile Supervision is a first-class official with the same rank as the directors of various prefectures. Does Gu Chen want to intervene in local affairs?
, is not something he can decide.
"Wen Jizheng, I have a question." When Zhang Ji looked sideways, Gu Chen stepped forward as if he had acquiesced and said hello to Fat Ji Zheng on the ground. "I observed carefully when I came up earlier.
According to the conditions along the way to the village, several sections of fortifications before reaching the settlement are indeed in signs of emergency repair. It seems that this strange disaster is quite serious, at least you are not lying about this."
"Yes, yes?" Hearing the unexpected help, Wen Hui, trembling, raised his head and looked over.
"Since the situation is so serious that a group of wild monsters almost invaded the settlement and caused casualties to the residents, it means that the fortifications of the village can no longer be relied on, right? Then, why do the people of Kinoji insist on holding on to the settlement? That's what they believe
Can you hold it on your own?" Gu Chen asked matter-of-factly.
"This, this..." Wen Hui glanced at Zhang Ji next to him. Although he didn't know who the young man in civilian clothes was, judging from the messenger's attitude, he should be an important member of the government. Will he be found guilty of lying about military intelligence this time?
As for the exile to the Southern Barbarians, it might depend on the attitude of this adult.
As soon as he thought about this, Wen Hui quickly straightened his posture and answered with fear and fear.
"Tell me, your lord, um, Kinoji is a fortress built and reinforced by craftsmen from the community for generations. It has never been breached before, so the residents are very superstitious about it... um, even though they were panicked when the group of wild monsters attacked last time.
However, the group of wild monsters was quickly annihilated by a group of pioneers, and it did not cause much shaking."
"pioneer?"
"Yes. That group of pioneers are old acquaintances of the craftsman. They are quite powerful. They also said that as long as they gather in Kino, everything will be fine... Uh, so no matter how much I try to persuade them, no one listens.
Gotta go in."
"So that's it."
Wen Hui said with a sad face, while Gu Chen nodded in understanding.
The pioneers equipped with spiritual weapons have outstanding military force that can defeat wild monsters. They travel around the territory like a ranger and become a first-line barrier to suppress famines. Especially in remote settlements where the territory's force is difficult to reach, pioneers are often
He is revered as the local patron saint.
With the majestic pioneers on one side and the humble Jizheng on the other, the residents of Kino would believe that everyone knew everything with their toes. Seeing that Wen Hui could not convince Kinoji to evacuate, the key fell to this group who claimed to be able to hold on.
On the pioneers of the colony.
(Even the pioneers are involved, the situation seems to be getting very complicated...)
Gu Chen frowned inwardly.
The pioneers are active military envoys among the people. Although they are generally appreciated by the people, from the perspective of the consular government, they are an unruly armed force. The consular government cannot order the pioneers, and at most they can only hire them on a commissioned basis.
They went to solve some consular troubles. And judging from the current situation, the group of pioneers were obviously on the opposite side of the consular government. This was an extremely difficult situation for both parties to deal with.
Gu Chen and the Liyang pioneers were familiar with the relationship between assisting in the conquest of the Chaos Ruins Palace last time, but the person who directly handled the affairs was the messenger Zhang Ji. As long as Zhang Ji didn't speak, no matter what he said, it would not be his turn to overstep the mark.
Damn it. Thinking like this, Gu Chen turned his attention to the messenger one after another.
"Master Zhang Ji, what do you think?"
"Absurd." Zhang Ji gave a brief conclusion with a cold face. "It is the power of the Lingfu to govern Minoji, and Ji Zheng Wen Hui is the official of the Lingfu. Commoners who are civilians, who overstep their authority and usurp the throne without authorization, and use force to disrupt the government, should be punished.
