Chapter 513 Misjudgment
When Master Gu finally figured out the content of the official document, he couldn't help but feel numb.Although he is mediocre, he is very clear about the meaning behind this official document pattern - the more vague the words, the more room for hints, the more important the matter is, and the more important it is to ignore.

Who knows which boss is staring at you coldly?
Fortunately, Mr. Ma is more powerful here. Knowing how much his proprietor has, he quickly responded-to urge the master to write a letter quickly, and he himself wrote a letter to his colleagues in the master circle. So he hastily dispatched three or four messengers to various yamen and private individuals in Guangzhou to inquire about the news.

In the next few days, the Zengcheng County Government, which had no news and a slow pace of life, received a lot of news.Even though the messages were messy, with contradictory and useless ones, they were enough to set the background of that document.

Then Zengcheng County was dumbfounded.No matter how you look at it, things are wrong: the official document asks here to go to Huangpu to recruit soldiers to suppress the bandits, which seems like a thankless job no matter how you look at it.For no reason, those battalion soldiers will listen to you as a county government?Who will pay for the suppression of bandits?From this point of view, maybe the new officer of the Xiong Zhijun took office, and he wanted to wear small shoes for that Cao Zongbing?

No wonder Zengcheng County made such a misjudgment: information in this era is extremely slow, and a government office in a remote county can't figure out the relationship between the big bosses in the provincial capital, and Master Gu doesn't know that Lao Xiong and Lao Cao are actually He was a close comrade-in-arms in Fujian.

In fact, even in the post-generation of information technology, unless there are extremely reliable first-hand channels, it is also unlikely that the county magistrates below can figure out the relationship between the big bosses in the province.If the levels are too far apart, there is naturally an information ceiling there.

On one side is the new civil service chief, and on the other is the general who holds the military power. Master Gu, who thought he was being rubbed among the big bosses, was completely panicked.

But Mr. Gu had to follow suit.In the current situation, knowing that someone behind him is waiting for him to activate, then he must activate.This is the sorrow of the little people. When something happens, they don't even have the option to play dead.

Two days later, the magistrate of Gu County, wearing a full set of official robes, got off the sedan chair nervously, and stood in front of the gate of Huangpu Military Port with a lot of agitation in his heart.

Seeing the sentinels standing in front of the door wearing olive green double-breasted blouses, strange cocked hats, armed with live ammunition, Master Gu shivered for no reason, and then exchanged a glance with Master Gu.

At this time, the long follower on the side automatically stepped forward and handed in the letter from the county magistrate Gu.The next moment, Master Gu saw the schoolboy on duty in front of him reaching for the post, and actually lowered his head to read it carefully.

"Zhemo can understand this person?" Master Gu couldn't help being startled by Xiao Snack.

The little school quickly broke the doubt in the master's mind: "Go, ride a horse and report to the adults, there is Gu Tai, the magistrate of Zengcheng County, asking to see him."

"Yes!"

After saying these words, the platoon leader on duty very familiarly pushed away the door bag money handed over by the entourage: "Guys, wait here first, and see if the adults can see you."

He didn't make things difficult to accept gifts, he didn't overbearing, and the primary school on duty was literate, which made Master Gu and his party very uncomfortable.

Not long after, the sentinel who had gone to report before came back on a strong and naive horse: "My lord, I invite Master Gu of Zengcheng County."

Thus, Master Gu met Wang Bowang, the commander of the Pioneering Army and the director of the Whampoa Military Port who was a guerrilla in the Ming army system.

Everything is not quite the same as in the image.

General Wang Shen met Master Gu and heard the purpose of the other party's coming to borrow troops to suppress the bandits, but he did not show a series of common actions of warriors such as sneering or swearing.

Not only did he not get angry, General Wang Shen even smiled all over his face, nodding repeatedly to agree to Master Gu's request.

After carefully observing General Wang Cang's face, and finding that the other party did not seem to be lying, Master Gu and Master Ma looked at each other again, and they both saw a look of relief in each other's eyes: This is fine, as long as today's test is passed, then after that If something goes wrong, Zengcheng County has a lot more room to dodge it.

The relieved magistrate Guda was in a much better mood, so he was ready to discuss the specific details with this General Wang Shen.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by General Wang Shen with a raised hand: "I have already promised that the whole thing is here, so there is no need to worry about it. There are a lot of people in Zengcheng County, so I ask Gu's parents to keep quiet about this matter." , just submit the official document.”

After saying this, General Wang Can ordered some soup to see off the guests.

"Hey, after all, we can't escape this catastrophe. These two fights are probably going to use the word 'drag'."

After coming out of the barracks, Master Gu's mood changed again.This general Wang Shen seemed to be easy to talk to, but he didn't mention the most important food and fodder for soldiers at all. This was obviously perfunctory, with the intention of procrastinating—Once again, Master Gu guessed the other party's mind correctly.

Master Gu and his party, who had no initiative in this matter, had no choice but to return home angrily.Fortunately, General Wang Shen has promised that Zengcheng County can reply to his superiors, so even if Mr. Gu removed a large part of his own family in this matter, he can now sit on the Diaoyutai.

However, Mr. Gu miscalculated again in the end. A week later, a few city gate guards rushed in from outside the county government gate, shouting all the way: "Master Xianzun, someone sent the head of Guitouwalaoqi! "

There are two reasons why the people who traveled through Zengcheng County took the knife.

First, Zengcheng is just to the east of the Huangpu Military Port, and the distance is short. "How can others sleep soundly on the side of the couch." It is the most convenient to deal with the bandits near Zengcheng first, whether it is in terms of logistics or military travel.

Second, Zengcheng has resources.

Even in the later generations with developed transportation, bulk materials such as building materials and cement will be unprofitable if they exceed a certain transportation distance.

Now that Guangzhou has started a vigorous large-scale infrastructure construction, it is completely impossible to keep up with the pace just by transporting cement from Taiwan to this side.Therefore, from the very beginning, Crossover Group designated a cement factory in Zengcheng County—the Zengcheng area has a large amount of limestone resources.

In addition to limestone, Zengcheng also has some small copper-iron mines, potash mines, and kaolin mines, all of which are needed for infrastructure construction.

Therefore, taking the Zengcheng area for surgery has become a matter of taking advantage of the trend. This is also the default location for the first operation since the establishment of the Pioneering Army.

The target is the Guitouwalao seven gangsters who ran away with He Biandan back then.

In fact, what County Magistrate Gu didn't know was that when he left Huangpu on the front foot that day, General Wang Can, who seemed calm and calm, had already ordered the mobilization of the entire army, began to arrange combat missions, and sent out scouts.
