Water Margin people

Liangshan Park.

"The recruits are well trained, they look good!"

Sun Lei smiled and looked at the [-] new recruits in front of him, all of whom had just been recruited, and with the concerted efforts of everyone, they looked like they had been recruited in just one month.

"It's all thanks to the brothers and veterans!"

Li Zhu said with a smile, it was only at this time that he realized how powerful those leaders and veterans in Liangshan were, and these people were very familiar with training recruits.

"Ha ha!"

Sun Lei laughed. The veterans were all trained by Lin Chong and Lu Zhishen. Naturally, they are not bad. Now it is only necessary to copy the painful experience of the new recruits to these new recruits.

After three months of recruit training, the soldiers will start training according to their individual abilities until they are divided into battalions.

"Brother, there is new news!"

Zhu Fu came with a notice.

"what news?"

Sun Lei looked at Zhu Fu.

"Brother, there is news in Yuncheng. A new county magistrate named Zhang Shuye has arrived. This guy is not easy. He issued many government orders as soon as he arrived, obviously aimed at us."

Zhu Fu handed the notice to Sun Lei.

"Uncle Zhang Ye!"

Sun Lei squinted his eyes at the notice and handed it to Xiao Jiasui and the others, while thinking about it himself, this person sounded familiar, it seemed that there was such a person.

"Brother, this person is a descendant of the general family. In his early years, he served as a recorder in Lanzhou under his father's shadow and joined the army. He led people to defeat the Qiang people in the northwest, and started to establish Xi'an Prefecture to guard the main roads and cut off the danger of the Qiang people."

"Later, he was transferred to many places. His writing skills were excellent, and he was praised by the emperor many times. He has been the Shaoyin of Kaifeng Prefecture. Later, he was awarded Jinshi's background, promoted to Yousi Yuanwailang, and was sent as a diplomatic mission to the Liao Kingdom."

"A few years ago, he was angered because his younger brother impeached Cai Jing, and was demoted to Xi'an Caochang Supervisor. In the past two years, it is said that he contributed a lot of articles to the emperor, and he was recalled to the capital as a secretary and junior supervisor. Later, he was promoted to Zhongshushe People, give things."

Wen Huanzhang knew a little about the officials of the Tokyo court, Zhang Shuye was quite talented and had a deep memory.

"Zhongshu Sheren, give Shizhong? Now transferred to Yuncheng county magistrate, it seems that he offended someone in the court and was demoted again."

Xiao Jiasui said, now that the imperial court is dim, promotion and demote are like child's play, Zhang Shuye, a scholar in the middle school, can be the prefect of a big state like Sijing at the lowest level.

"Regardless of being demoted or not, his new decree is extremely targeted!"

Li Zhu looked at the government orders on the notice, each of which was aimed at recruiting people in Liangshan. The rent of farmland in Liangshan was low, and Zhang Shuye also lowered the rent of farmland in Yuncheng; Enforcing the law, enforcing punishments, fighting crimes, and returning Yuncheng to the blue sky; Liang Shanbo resisted the exorbitant taxes of Xicheng, and Zhang Shuye also said that Yuncheng did not have Xicheng...

"This is not against me, this is against me!"

Sun Lei said with a smile, Zhang Shuye is already on the verge of breaking out.

"Brother, let's think of a way. Once this announcement comes out, the number of people who vote is much less! Why don't we make some more conditions."

Zhu Fu opened his mouth and said, during this period of time, people from the surrounding area were rushing to vote for Liangshan, but today suddenly there were not many, only civilians who had nothing were still coming.

"If there is less, there will be less. We want to expand, but we have to do it step by step, right? It is not a good thing to have too many people at once. Changing orders at night is also a great blow to reputation."

Sun Lei shook his head indifferently and said, reputation is far more attractive than profit, the reason why Zhang Shuye is able to stabilize people's hearts is because the government is more trustworthy than thieves in the eyes of ordinary people, and the reputation of the government has not been completely discredited.

"Brother is right. Blind expansion will make the interior unstable. No matter how many people there are, it will be nothing but a mess. Those who don't want to come don't need to force it."

Xu Guanzhong said approvingly.

Wen Huanzhang and Li Zhu also nodded slightly. Since ancient times, most of the rebels were reckless and impulsive, and they made a shocking momentum in an instant, but their destruction was only an instant. The reason is that the rapid expansion led to rapid internal instability. The descent becomes fragile.

"But this Shu Ye is quite talented!"

Sun Lei looked at the notice with a smile and said, being able to think of so many countermeasures in an instant, coupled with Wen Huanzhang's introduction, Sun Lei felt that Zhang Shuye was definitely a rare talent.

"My brother wants to accept this person, I'm afraid it will be difficult!"

Li Zhu looked at Sun Lei and said, from Wen Huanzhang's introduction, he could deduce that Zhang Shuye was quite strategic, had been in the officialdom for many years, knew how to be an official, and was extremely loyal to the court.

"It's difficult to find a way. Now we have too many people in Liangshan. Pei Xuan can't manage it alone. Several military advisers are busy with their affairs, and they can't manage those trivial matters. This uncle Ye looks good to me. As an official For many years, I have been an official all the way from the border to Tokyo, and I have been demoted to the outside world many times, so I have rich experience."

Sun Lei said with a smile that after a round of expansion, Liangshanbo now has a population of nearly 15, which is equivalent to the population of a large county.

For a bandit cottage, this is an extremely terrifying number. If there are too many people, it will be troublesome to manage. Pei Xuan is already a little bit powerless, and Sun Lei can't count on a group of good guys. Lu Zhishen's promotion is in Sun Lei's opinion. Neither are competent.

"Brother said so, Zhang Shuye is a good candidate. He has been a magistrate and magistrate in seven or eight cities, and he is quite famous in the local area."

Wen Huanzhang said.

"Send someone to Yuncheng to see what's going on, and ask about Zhang Shuye by the way."

Sun Lei looked at Zhu Fu and ordered.

"Brother, the navy is about to go out, and it may be a bit risky to attack Yuncheng at this time."

Zhu Wu said hesitantly, he was worried that the conflict with the official uniform would attract the officers and troops and affect the sailors' itinerary.

"Who said I'm going to fight Yuncheng? If I want to take this small town, I'll take it long ago. Zhang Shuye can't keep it by force. This kind of person would rather die than give in."

At this moment, Sun Lei already thought of Zhang Shuye. He was not familiar with the previous ones. He only remembered that Zhang Shuye was captured after the Jingkang disaster, and he hanged himself on the way to the north.

"Brother, do you want to push back?"

Xiao Jiasui looked at Sun Lei and asked, wanting to hear what good plans Sun Lei had.

"Haha, how many of the above decrees do you think can be realized?"

Sun Lei pointed at Zhang Shuye's notice with a smile.

"The taxation court has long had a fixed quota, and only the emperor can order a reduction; the West City is a means for Yang Jian and others to collect money, which represents the interests of a large group of people, and Zhang Shuye may not be able to stop it; It was almost sold out privately, and even a new county magistrate could not move the land of the gentry and local tyrants... I am afraid that only this kind of law enforcement can be done impartially, and the punishment can be done fairly, but it is only to catch some hairy people in the city. A thief is a model."

Wen Huanzhang analyzed that Zhang Shuye seemed to promise a lot, but there was only one thing he could barely do.

"It is full of empty words but can stabilize people's hearts. This trick is very powerful!"

Sun Lei nodded and said, Zhang Shuye used a blank paper to stabilize the restless people around him, Sun Lei admired this move, and later found that the civilians could not keep their promises, half of them could only swallow their anger.

"Actually, if Zhang Shuye is willing to collude with those corrupt officials, I can't help him, but he just wants to be that clean stream. All we have to do is watch from the sidelines, and those corrupt officials and thieves in the court will deal with them themselves. Zhang Shuye, send this person to us."

Sun Lei laughed, he can't blame himself for being bad, it's just that this filthy officialdom can't accommodate Qingliu.
