Qi Zhou studied the war note for a moment and pondered: "It's just a name, and the thieves in Black Mountain do not belong to each other. However, they all recommended Zhang Yan as commander, so the county magistrate does not need to worry too much." This consolation obviously did not work. Ling asked: "Even so, can Fan Yang cope with it?" Qi Zhou was silent. Indeed, Fan Yang can still cope with people like Li Damu and Zhang Lei Gong, but if "Feiyan" comes By the way, this Yan is very powerful, why not If you go directly to Zhuo County, how can you compete with our little Fan Yang? Just when Qi Zhou and Zhu Guang were silent, the county magistrate suddenly sighed: "It is better to imitate the county magistrate of Tang County." One sentence made the county magistrate change his face. This is not a joke! Although the county magistrate is a good old man, he is kind and diligent and has a wide reputation in the county! If he abandons his official position and flees, Fan Yangke will be gone! Seeing that the two deputies were frightened, Fan Yangling smiled bitterly and said: "It's just a joke. Well, tell me what to do." Fan Yang is just a small county, there is no garrison, and the armed force is only quick arresters and mature men. It's okay to deal with the rabble. This matter must be reported to the county, and the prefect is asked to send county troops to help. Now that the plan has been decided, the county magistrate immediately wrote the document. The three of them discussed the wording together. After drafting the package, they talked for a while before returning home. "You came on foot? Let me see you off." Qi Zhou said after leaving the county office. In fact, it was only a few steps away, but Zhu Guang still agreed. After getting into the car, the two sat opposite each other, neither of them speaking. I heard the wheels of the car creaking and shaking. "How many people are there in the county?" Zhu Guang asked after a long time. "There should be three to five thousand." Qi Zhou replied. Hearing Zhu Guang's worry, he added, "Although Zhuojun is not like your Yunzhongbian County, there are captains who specialize in military affairs, but the people here are strong, and the county soldiers are not idle." In the darkness, only Zhu heard Guang said in a low voice: "Zhang Yan dared to write the gauntlet first, which means that he has nothing to fear and should not be underestimated." "How could I not know this? But according to my speculation, Zhang Yan wrote the gauntlet early." " Huh? What do you say? " "You think, Zhang Yan is a bandit in the Black Mountains and he won't take action easily. If he comes here soon, how much benefit will he get even if he defeats Fan Yang? It's better to wait until May. Wouldn't it be nice to seize grain and destroy the city when you are mature? ""Then the reason for his early warning is" "Maybe it's like you said, he has no fear, and he doesn't take the county soldiers seriously. Therefore, he planned to attack Fan Yang from the east and attack from the west. When the county troops were transferred to Fan Yang, he was more likely to go straight to Zhuo County. " In the darkness, a light flashed in Zhu Guang's eyes: "What did you do just now? "Don't tell me?" "What did I say? Do you want me to remind the governor not to send troops? I am Fan Yangcheng!" Zhu Guang didn¡¯t know whether to laugh or cry, but after hearing what he said, he felt more at ease. Suddenly remembering what happened during the day, he asked tentatively: "I was patrolling outside the city today and saw a woman giving porridge" "Oh, that's my sister. Didn't I treat you to a drink that day? It was her." Listen. He spoke as usual, knowing that Qi's sister did not go back to complain, which made him feel more at ease. He praised: "I see that she specializes in giving porridge to women and children. Your sister is really compassionate." "Humph." Qi Zhou chuckled and said nothing. "What do you mean? Am I wrong?" "She just likes to join in the fun and have fun. See if she will go tomorrow. Alas, she is used to it. There is nothing you can do. She is just such a little sister. By then It will save you trouble if you find someone to marry. "That's right. Your parents are not here, and you can't escape this responsibility." "Who said you are not here? Get some rest early, I¡¯ll have to worry about you outside the city tomorrow.¡± ¡°I said that¡¯s all for the county magistrate. Why don¡¯t you go out to patrol the city for two days?¡± ¡°Haha! Forget it, if the hungry people outside the city make trouble. Get up, I can¡¯t shake it even in these two shakes.¡± After all this fuss, I don¡¯t feel hungry anymore. Return to the room, cover your head and go to sleep. Early the next morning, there was another porridge, side dishes and half a piece of cake. I originally pointed to Qi's sister to leave two bowls of porridge to eat, but I offended her yesterday and heard Qi Zhou say that she was just trying to be fresh and join in the fun. I guess there is no way to come today and she is hungry. . He took Gao Shun with him and went to the county office to order people and horses. He didn't care about responding to official documents and so on, and went out of the city to take charge. As soon as he walked out of the city gate, Lieutenant Zhu Xian gasped! There are more hungry people today than yesterday! How can this happen? Let alone May, can we last until the end of April? "County Lieutenant." Several men carrying swords ran in front of the horse and knelt down to block the way. Zhu Guang knew that one of them was a wanderer in the countryside, responsible for arresting thieves and maintaining public order. If the county lieutenant wants to be the police chief, then you?That's the police station chief. "Let's talk about something." Na Youyou stood up and reported with a frown: "Today, a group of people from Tang County, Zhongshan County, dozens of people, entered Fanyang territory from Xiaoren's jurisdiction. In the past few days, people from Tang County came to Fanyang to beg for food. The number of people is increasing day by day. Please ask the county captain to seal the road?" Looking at the crowd of people, Zhu Guang sighed: "Sealing the road is easy, but the hungry people can do anything if they want to survive. "Red eyes, how many people can stop you? The county magistrate is going to the county to ask for food. Let them do it." "No," Youyou said, and he was about to leave. "Come back." Zhu Guang called. "Although there is no need to stop the hungry people, you should be careful and be careful to prevent the Black Mountain bandits from mixing in." This is actually no different from empty talk. The people in the Zhuojun area are inherently fierce, and there are not a few people who wield swords and guns. The Black Mountain bandits have such faces. There is no tattoo, how can you identify it? After sending away the township officials, Zhu Guang led his people to continue patrolling. He rides a tall horse every day, and all the hungry people know that he is the county captain of this county. Who would not be in awe of him because he has heard of his reputation? He also saw with his own eyes that the men who instigated the robbery that day were executed on the spot by him. Who else dares to cause trouble? ¡°I heard that this is the food we eat, and there is still a share for others. "County Lieutenant." Gao Shun called out. "Huh?" When Zhu Guang looked back, he saw him staring in one direction. Looking over, I saw a large group of women and children gathered in front of a thatched shed. Behind the chopping board, the Qi girl was very busy. I don¡¯t know why I smiled, tightened my legs, and urged my horse to move forward. Before noon, Zhu Guang was really hungry. Gao Shun made him two bowls of porridge that was almost as clear as water. It was useless to drink it, and he urinated in two bowls. Riding on a horse is also a physical job, so I had no choice but to get off the horse, find an open space to sit on, and chew grass roots on the ground. Although it doesn¡¯t wrap your stomach, just taste the sweetness. It was a boring move at first, but seeing how moved he was in the eyes of the people, the county captain even fell for it! It must be because of his hard life. The number of hungry people who came to receive porridge today was more than three digits more than yesterday. It was past noon and the food was not finished yet. Zhu Guang was so hungry that he suddenly remembered the happy days of roasting fat sheep in the clouds. If there were roasted sheep at this time, he could eat one! After finally surviving until the hungry people were almost dispersed, he quickly asked his men to fetch the horse, but he saw that the big green horse had also lost weight in the past half month. Zhu Guang couldn't bear it, so he took the horse and walked. Whoever dared to ride among the entourage led the horse to the city. When passing by the Qijia soup kitchen, he turned his head and looked at it as he walked. I saw a servant girl touching Qi's daughter. She raised her head and met Zhu Guang's gaze. Seeing the apologetic smile on the other person's face, she curled her lips and tilted her head to one side. Zhu Guang didn¡¯t care much about it, he just wanted to go home. After walking a few steps, I heard a "Hey" coming from behind. Gao Shun looked at the young master and saw that the corner of his mouth was clearly raised, but he suppressed it, so he reached out and took the reins: "County Lieutenant, I will lead the horse back first." "Well, you go back first, I " I'm embarrassed to say that I'll eat two bowls first. Fortunately, although Gao Shun was taciturn, he was a sensible man. He said nothing and led the horse away. Zhu Xianwei glanced left and right and saw that no one was paying attention to him, so he pretended to be casual and moved to the hay shed. "I'm really sorry for yesterday. I'm so open-minded. I'm very sorry." "Humph, the county captain doesn't need to say nice things. There are more hungry people today and they've already run out of food." Qi's daughter said, tilting her head. "No? It doesn't matter, I just came to apologize to you." What did Zhu Guang say yesterday? In fact, in his original era, it was nothing at all. He teased the girl from the Qi family and said, "How old are you? Can you agree to this?" Originally, Qi¡¯s daughter was Qi Zhou¡¯s younger sister. He and Qi Zhou had a good relationship in public and private affairs, and he treated her as a younger sister. Seeing her cuteness, I just made a joke, and there are not so many etiquette in the North, so I didn't know that I would offend this girl. "Apologise? You don't dare. You are a high-ranking county captain, and I am just a little girl. If you get angry, how can you kill me with a knife?" The Qi girl's eyes widened, and her eyebrows moved when she spoke. Move with indescribable dexterity. Seeing that she was willing to greet him, Zhu Guang was obviously no longer angry, so he lowered his face again and feigned anger: "It's not good to be unreasonable. I praised you in front of your brother yesterday for being compassionate." " Really?" The Qi girl jumped like a bird, very happy. "Can my noble county lieutenant lie to you?" The Qi daughter then smiled, shrugged her nose, snorted, lowered her body again, and brought out two bowls of porridge. This time, most of them were rice dumplings. If it were normal, Zhu Guang would just think it was what was left from scraping the bottom of the pot. But now I understand??This is real stuff, the most satisfying! "You said it was gone?" "Ha, I lied to you!" Sister Qi supported the chopping board and fluttered her feet, as if it was a great thing to deceive the county captain. Looking at the two pear dimples, Zhu Guang smiled sincerely. It would be a real joy to have such a sister in the family. Seeing that he was just smiling, Qi's daughter urged: "Eat quickly, people are saying that even the county captain has eaten grass roots." Zhu Guang stopped talking and started eating from the bowl. He picked up his chopsticks and while he was devouring his food, he couldn't help but ask: "The county captain"
