- Luo Chong walked slowly on the city wall. When he was about to reach the west gate, a flag official ran towards him, saluted and reported: "Master Qianhu, you came just in time. There is a group of people outside the west gate. The leader said The magistrate of Hengyuan County looked anxious and asked us to open the city gate to let him in. It was obvious at first glance that he was here to seek refuge.¡±
"Hengyuan County was captured?"
Luo Chong tilted his head: "The efficiency of the rebels is not bad."
Speeding up my steps, I came to the west gate. Looking down from the battlements, I saw a carriage and several people carrying heavy burdens.
The fat man who seemed to be the magistrate of Hengyuan stood next to the carriage, looking up and shouting: "I am really the magistrate of Hengyuan. Open the door for me quickly. Several of your households recognize me. Let me in quickly." ¡¡±
"I only mentioned hundreds of households, not thousands of households. I must know that the thousands of households in Guangling Town are no longer surnamed Zhao.
Luo Chong asked from above: "Has Hengyuan County fallen?"
"ah?"
The county magistrate of Hengyuan was only in his twenties, but he might be a little short-sighted and could not see Luo Chong's specific appearance. In addition, Luo Chong was wearing casual clothes and could not judge his official position, so he asked loudly below: "What's wrong with Luo Chong?" Please tell me, who are you?"
"Replacing a thousand households, Luo Dong."
"Ah! Luo Qianhu, Master Luo!"
The magistrate of Hengyuan raised his hands and saluted: "The lower official is Wei Guangliang, the magistrate of Hengyuan. I also ask Lord Qianhu to open the city gate and let me in."
"Don't worry, the rebels are still far away and they won't be able to kill them so quickly."
Luo Chong said slowly: "Besides, once the city gate is closed, there are many sandbags blocking it below. It's not just easy to open it. At least you have to ask for it."
"Thousands of households are in the fifth rank, the county magistrate is only in the seventh rank, and the largest upper-class county is only in the sixth rank. Although they emphasize culture over martial arts, there is a huge difference in rank, so there is no need for Luo Chong to coax him.
Wei Guangliang also knew these truths, so he took out a small baggage from the carriage and shouted: "Master Qianhu, this is my official seal and official uniform. You can verify it."
"No need to look at those."
Luo Chong waved his hand: "Look for any stone and I can carve it out exactly the same. I just ask you, has Hengyuan County fallen?"
"It seems not yet"
Wei Guangliang hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth: "But it will be a matter of time. There are only dozens of old and weak soldiers in Hengyuan County, so it is impossible to stop them."
Luo Chong¡¯s tone turned cold: ¡°In other words, you abandoned the people and ran away before you even saw the rebels?¡±
"Well¡¡"
Wei Guangliang was stunned for a moment, unable to answer clearly, but he said in his heart: Aren¡¯t we all like this? Who would stay there stupidly if they knew they were going to die?
People may not necessarily die. Officials who fall into the hands of rebels will die miserably, with their skin ripped apart, cramps, and thousands of cuts.
Hearing Luo Chong question himself like this, Wei Guangliang's heart skipped a beat: Could it be that he had met a strong person and couldn't bear to see me being such a fearful person?
If so, we can only escape to the next guardhouse.
Unexpectedly, Luo Chong then said: "Forget it, you are not a military attache, so I can forgive you for not having the courage and bloodiness. Open the door and let them in."
"ah!"
Wei Guangliang was overjoyed and bowed below, thanking him loudly.
"To be honest, if you run elsewhere, you and your family will be able to squeeze into the carriage, but the master and the slaves who can only walk will definitely not be able to hold on.
As everyone knows, Luo Chong is not a staunch person at all. If he encounters someone more powerful than himself in the chaos in the future, who will die bravely and generously? The thing to do, of course, is to run away.
"What kind of national justice, thousands of people, if the powerful Chaos can destroy a certain universe and rebuild everything, there will be no psychological burden at all.
With different heights, the standards for judging right and wrong will naturally be different.
There were not many sandbags piled up at the west gate. Soon, the city gate opened slowly. Wei Guangliang came in panting while trotting all the way. The domestic slave drove the carriage behind.
"Thank you, Mr. Qianhu."
Come in, it¡¯s safe, Wei Guangliang¡¯s face is shiny, and he suddenly becomes more energetic.
Luo Chong waved his hand and asked casually: "If you lose the county seat like this, aren't you afraid of being held accountable in the future?"
"It should be fine."
Wei Guangliang pulled a towel from the carriage to wipe his face, and said with a smile: "My father has some connections in the capital. Even if he can't keep his official position, he can still save his life. Besides, I don't care about that anymore, so I don't care. It¡¯s much better than dying at the hands of rebels.¡±
"OK"?You take your family to the inn to rest first, and we'll talk later. "
Luo Chong heard the subtle moans of the female family members in the car. They must have been in a curled-up position for too long. They suddenly moved and their legs cramped.
This Wei Guangliang is obviously one of them. There are four women stuffed in the small carriage. He is so young and cannot have such a big daughter. They must all be wives and concubines.
"Hey, hey, okay, okay."
Wei Guangliang responded from behind and shouted again: "I will freshen up a little and then go visit Mr. Qianhu."
There is an obvious hint that Luo Chong will be given a gift soon. Your wealth and life are in the hands of others, so how can you not give them some benefits?
The arrival of Wei Guangliang made Luo Chong change his mind slightly, so he called Ma Hanzi to him and gave him an order: Ten veterans and forty recruits, all on horseback, you lead them out to fight guerrillas!
Of course Ma Hanzi can understand that if these people practice well, they will be the scout brigade he will be in charge of in the future.
"In five days, we will bring back at least 200 heads."
Luo Chong set a target for him: "Don't think about killing good people and deceiving me with the heads of ordinary people. Do you think I can tell whether it is true or false?"
"I don't dare!"
Ma Hanzi¡¯s body was upright and his expression was solemn: ¡°The lives of my subordinates belong to thousands of households. I want to follow you and become a world-famous hero, not a despicable villain!¡±
"That's right."
Luo Chong patted him on the shoulder: "Practice your true skills, you are better than anything else."
??????????????????????????
Two hours later, Ma Hanzi led a team of fifty people and sixty horses and ran out of Guangling Town through the west gate. The extra ten horses would be used to carry heads or other harvests.
Luo Chong has long taught the most brilliant guerrilla tactics. It depends on how much he can understand and how much he can use it.
" If they really play well, these fifty cavalrymen can make those so-called Yaotian Army miserable and disturbed.
In the afternoon, Luo Chong received Wei Guangliang in his hall, who had changed into an official hat and official uniform after taking a bath. He was determined not to wear it as he was running for his life on the road.
As soon as he sat down, Wei Guangliang presented him with five hundred taels of silver notes, and said with a smile: "I know, this thing is too vulgar, but in extraordinary times, this is the lightest thing to carry on your body, so I ask for your forgiveness." ¡±
"It's not vulgar at all. It's much better than giving me jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, etc. It's troublesome to find a way to sell those things!"
Luo Chong is even more unruly. He will not refuse any gift from others, but he also said: "Just passing by my place, I opened the city gate and gave you five hundred taels. You are quite greedy."
"Greedy?"
Seeing that Luo Chong actually had this kind of virtue, Wei Guangliang completely relaxed, waved his hand and said: "You can't make much money by pointing out corruption and taking bribes. Fortunately, my father is rich, so I don't need to worry about it. So. Tell me, it¡¯s not a secret in Guangling territory anyway. My father is good at business and I, the county magistrate, bought it.¡±
Luo Chong nodded, pretending to be enlightened.
But Wei Guangliang said again: "Qianhu, don't look down on me, I am also a scholar, quite talented."
"Come on."
Luo Chong curled his lips: "Can you find someone else to take the exam for you?"
"No, no, no!"
Wei Guangliang shook his head vigorously: "I really took the exam myself. I'm not stupid, and I don't have much pressure to study. If I weren't playful, lustful and lazy, it wouldn't be a problem to take the exam."
"Haha, okay, I believe such a sincere answer."
Luo Chong laughed. In fact, he had just inquired with Mayor Han. Wei Guangliang was really not a fool. He had made great progress in Hengyuan County during his two years in office. Maybe it's because his family is rich and he doesn't need to exploit the people too much.
However, Mayor Han cannot deny the actual political achievements.
Facing death, he abandoned the people and ran away. This is a different matter. Whether he was afraid of death and whether he was confused or not should not be confused.
Next, Wei Guangliang felt that Luo Chong was quite easy-going and not difficult to get along with, so he asked tentatively: "Master Qianhu, I would like to ask, do you think you can defend Guangling Town?"
You must ask this question, and you must have some confidence in your heart. If it is really not possible, you have to rest for a day or two, and you have to continue heading south and continue running.
"Stop running away, stay here honestly."
Luo Chong understood what he meant and said: "Those rebels are not in my eyes at all. Not only can they hold on, but when the heat comes, I will send troops to encircle and suppress them and put an end to this rebellion."
"ah?"
Wei Guangliang was very surprised, but he had also heard of his reputation of killing hundreds of people, so he asked: "How many soldiers do Qianhu have?"
"It's not about having many soldiers, it's about being good."
Luo Chong was too lazy to talk and started asking for a bribe: "Two thousand taels! When the time comes, I'll help you take Hengyuan County back. Don't say you're running away, just say you come to my place to bring in reinforcements, and you can still keep this crown." Official hat.¡±
"this¡¡"
Wei Guangliang looked dumbfounded, and with just one mouth, of course he couldn't believe such big words, but for him, it was extremely tempting.
How can you be willing to throw away an official hat that you finally bought? If you can really keep it, it would be great. As for two thousand taels of silver, it's nothing. Dad will definitely be willing to pay for it.
If you lose money, you can make it again. If you are dismissed from office, your future official career will be completely ruined. If a dismissed official wants to be reinstated, there is no way he can even think about it without the emperor's special approval. No matter how rich my father is, he cannot bribe the emperor.
"Go back and think about it."
Luo Chong patted the banknotes on the table and said with a smile: "I'm not doing it for these things, but I think your brother is quite interesting (I want to say funny in my heart). Be a neighbor with me in Hengyuan. Compared with those It¡¯s much better to be a fool.¡±
"well."
Wei Guangliang took out his handkerchief, wiped his face as usual, and then told the truth: "Qianhu, I don't care about money, I'm just afraid of death. I'm not afraid of your jokes, even if I get pricked by a needle, I'll scream Half a day. If you can't hold on here, I will pay for it with my life"
"I'm not afraid of death? Am I stupider than you?"
Luo Chong snorted: "If I wasn't sure, would I stay here? And accept so many refugees? What do you think I think?" r1148 - Didn't finish reading?
