Chapter 71 0069 [Fish Leaping over the Dragon Gate]

There is no benefit to be gained, and this group of archers and soldiers are very disappointed.

But they knew they were wrong, and they didn't dare to make trouble.

Back at the foot of the cottage, Liu Yong did not dare to go up out of caution, but sent someone to check it out.

Seeing that there were no bandits on the gate of the village, he walked into the village alone.

……

In Juyi Hall, Han Zhen looked at Liu Yong with a half-smile.

"Brother, brother can't do anything about it. You know the virtues of these archers and soldiers. What's the use of practicing for three or five days every year? A bandit can run faster than his mother's rabbit..."

Liu Yong felt terrified when he saw it, so he bit the bullet and explained.

Han Zhen interrupted with a smile: "I know your difficulties, and I don't blame you."

call!
Liu Yong heaved a sigh of relief, knowing that the matter had been uncovered.

"It's useless for brothers to keep the corpses of Shi Bao and others, can you hand them over to brother?"

After Liu Yong finished speaking, he added another sentence: "Don't worry, I'm not someone who can't figure it out, brother, please make a price."

Hearing this, Han Zhen pondered and said, "Shi Bao's corpses are ten cattle, and the big and small bosses each have a donkey. Let's count the remaining two hundred bandit corpses together as thirty fat pigs. How about sending them to the cottage tomorrow?"

The price is not high, and it is only three or four hundred guan.

Three or four hundred pennies, in exchange for the achievement of suppressing bandits, anyone who is not a fool will agree.

"Brothers benevolent!"

Liu Yong raised his thumb and flattered him a little.

Anyway, he doesn't need to pay the money, Changzhi County will pay for it.

After negotiating, Liu Yong went down the mountain happily, and called a team of archers to cut his head.

This group of archers had followed him a long time ago, and they could be regarded as confidantes.

When they saw Han Zhen, they all looked terrified.

"Why panic, Han Er is my brother."

Liu Yong scolded, and then said sullenly: "This matter is rotten in the stomach, if anyone dares to say it, then don't blame me for not remembering the old love!"

"Boss, let's save it."

The archers heard the chill in his words and responded again and again.

The leader only needs to be the bandit leader and a group of big and small bosses, and the rest of the bandits are not even qualified to cut off their heads, only their left ear.

Commanding the archers to carry the sacks filled with heads and ears, Liu Yong said with a smile: "Brother, go back first, and send the pigs and cattle tomorrow."

"Let's go."

Han Zhen waved his hand.

After Liu Yong was sent away, the registration of the fleeing households also came to an end.

Han Zhen called the fugitives, dragged all the bandit's corpses to a wasteland, picked up firewood, and set them on fire.

Then the blood in the lobby was cleaned again.

By the time everything was done, it was almost evening.

There was no need for Han Zhen to order, as soon as the time came, the group of fleeing households took their bowls and came to a thatched shed to wait.

After a while, a fat cook led several waiters out of the kitchen carrying buckets of vegetable porridge.

The fat cook didn't run away. After all, in his opinion, no matter who the cottage changes, they have to eat, right?

Since he wanted to eat, he couldn't lose his life.

And to be honest, cooking meals for thousands of people at once is really impossible for ordinary people, so he is the most calm person in the whole village.

"Don't squeeze, arrange them all for grandpa."

Seeing the fugitives swarming forward, the fat cook knocked the wooden spoon heavily and said loudly: "The kindness of the master, I will give you thick porridge today."

The fugitives didn't believe it at first, but when a large spoonful of thick porridge with wild vegetables was poured into the bowl, they all gasped.

This is porridge, and wheat rice is nothing more than that.

For a moment, the escapees could not help but glance in the direction of Juyi Hall.

This new boss is much better than Shi Bao.

The fat cook made porridge for a while, then threw the wooden spoon to the helper, turned around and went into the kitchen, and started working on the dinner for Han Zhen and others.

……

……

However, after Liu Yong went down the mountain, he deliberately cleared out an ox cart, and piled the heads and bloody ears of Shi Bao and others on the ox cart.

After returning to the county seat, he beat gongs and drums all the way, and swaggered through the city, attracting all the people in the county to come to watch.

"It really wiped out Shibao!"

"Liu Dutou is really amazing."

"Good job!"

"Well done, these damn bandits killed my parents, took away my wife and children, woo woo..."

"..."

Hearing the amazement and admiration of the people, Liu Dutou was extremely proud.

Some people even knelt down in the street to express their gratitude.

All these people are close relatives who were poisoned by Shi Bao.

Liu Yong hurriedly jumped off his horse, helped these people up one by one, and comforted him: "Don't do this, it's my duty to suppress bandits, and it's really my fault for letting this stone treasure run rampant in the countryside for several years."

This behavior immediately attracted the onlookers to call for benevolence and righteousness.

Even those archer county soldiers felt honored, and each of them puffed up their chests.

After making a full circle around the county seat, he came to the county government office.

Changzhi County got the news early, and now with a smile in the corner of his eyes, he led three classes of yamen servants to wait at the door.

Of course he was happy to have achieved a feat of suppressing bandits for nothing.

Besides, Shi Bao is not some small bandit, but a real tiger.

With thousands of bandits under his command and tens of thousands of fugitives gathered together, he is really a giant bandit!
He said thousands, so it was thousands!

With this achievement as a foundation, plus the recruitment of Han Er when he leaves office, and some money to manage, are you afraid that you won't be able to become a Beijing official?

No way, I can still be that promoted official!

Thinking of this, the smile in the corners of Changzhi County's eyes grew stronger.

"The subordinates are lucky to live up to their fate!"

Liu Yong jumped off his horse and bowed.

"Ok!"

Chang Zhi County caressed his beard and said with a smile, "Liu Yong, you did a good job this time, you deserve the first place!"

Hearing this, Liu Yong hurriedly said: "This time the suppression of bandits all depends on the command of the county magistrate. He used his troops like a god, and his subordinates dare not take credit for it."

Changzhi County nodded in satisfaction, and then said loudly to the people who followed: "Fellow folks, now that the stone treasure has been removed, the official path will be safe in the future."

The common people all bowed to thank and shouted to the sky.

"You've worked hard waiting, let's go and get the reward money."

After pacifying the soldiers of the archers, Changzhi County led Liu Yong into the county government office amidst the sound of Qingtian Dalord.

"Then what did Han Er say?"

In the study, Chang Zhixian took a sip of tea.

Liu Yong replied truthfully: "Shi Bao's head has ten cattle, each of the big and small leaders has a donkey, and the remaining bandits have thirty fat pigs."

Changzhi County pondered and said: "Well, tomorrow you will work harder and send the pigs, cows and other livestock over."

Since Xu, Zheng, and Wu's families were eradicated last night, he has completely lost his grip in Linzi County, and the remaining wealthy businessmen can't make any waves.

Before sending five cattle to Xiaowang Village, it had to be done in batches to deceive people.

At this point, these concerns are gone.

"If there is nothing wrong with the county magistrate, the subordinates will go back first."

"and many more."

Changzhi County stopped him, and said slowly: "You have made great achievements in suppressing the bandits this time, and the county wants to recommend you as a county captain. Would you like it?"

County lieutenant?

Liu Yong's heartbeat suddenly accelerated and his breathing became short of breath.

After regaining his senses, he hurriedly responded: "This subordinate is willing, this subordinate is willing!"

Previously, Changzhi County had said that he would be recommended as the chief bookkeeper.

But Liu Yong knew very well in his heart that this was nothing but a big cake that would never be eaten.

In the Tang Dynasty, the requirements for the master book were not high.

If the subordinate staff has meritorious service, they can also be promoted to the master book.

But now, there are too many scholars and too many books.

As a result, there are only a few real vacancies every year, but there are hundreds of Jinshi vying for it.

This caused a sesame-sized Cong Jiupin master book to become a favorite.

Scholars have to be robbed, where is it the turn of the subordinates?

But the county lieutenant is different. Although he is the same as the master book, he is the same as the ninth rank, and he eats the same salary, but his actual status is much lower than the master book. He is the least popular sesame official.

Moreover, the position of county lieutenant was looked down upon by most scholars, just because he was a military officer.

In the early days of the Northern Song Dynasty, county lieutenants were thoroughly civil servants. In the mid-term, due to frequent uprisings in various places, they were changed to military officials.

With the lowest status and a military officer, naturally there are not many people vying for it.

But even so, for Liu Yong, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to jump into the dragon's gate.

No matter what, he is an official, which allows him to directly cross a class, from an official to an official!
Changzhi County reminded: "Don't be in a hurry to thank, the county is only recommending, and ultimately it depends on the state's intentions."

"Regardless of success or failure, Liu Yong is grateful for your support and support!" Liu Yong said sincerely.

Chang Zhixian waved his hand: "It's good to have this kind of heart, let's go."

"The subordinates will retire first."

After Liu Yong finished speaking, he turned and left the study.

Watching his leaving back, Chang Zhixian smiled slightly, rolled up his cuffs, and began to write the application form.

At first, he wanted to take the credit for himself. As for Liu Yong, he just wanted to reward some money.

Later, after thinking about it, I felt that if Liu Yong became a county lieutenant, he could also take on the responsibility of the master book, so that the court would not assign another master book.

This Liu Yong has a close relationship with Na Han Er.

In this way, your own business can be foolproof!
