After being exiled, I led my whole family to rebel.

Chapter 134 King of Caotou Mountain

Seeing this, Xu Huiming became even more nervous, fearing that something unexpected would happen at the critical moment, so he shouted loudly: "The archers on the city wall, throw all their bows and arrows off the tower! All the soldiers in the city threw away their weapons, stood on both sides of the road in the city, and greeted Lan County The new city lord enters the city——"

With the sound of "Kaicheng Surrender", the five thousand refugees outside heard it clearly, and they all jumped up excitedly. They ran around calling each other, eager to try.

Seeing that the refugees were agitated, Xu Yinxi was afraid that there would be more accidents due to the large number of people, so she quickly led people to suppress them, and repeatedly ordered them to follow orders when entering the city!
She even brought up what Xu Zhenying said before about dividing the land, and repeatedly emphasized that only those who obey the rules and obey the rules can divide the land. This move is tantamount to hitting the Achilles heel of the refugees. What the refugees fear most is that they are afraid of staying in the house forever. I have no fixed place, I am afraid of not having a household registration, I am afraid of not having a land.

Xu Yinxi's voice was so loud that it was smoking, and she repeated over and over again, "Only those who are obedient and obey the rules will get a share of the land! Pass it on, pass it on!"

She must make every refugee who comes into the city behave honestly.

This is what Xu Zhenying told her before she left. She must maintain order when entering the city, otherwise it will be a chaotic mess, and she is afraid that someone with good intentions will take the opportunity to cause trouble.

"Oh my god, we can enter the city, we can enter the city! Finally we don't have to starve and freeze all day long!"

"Master Xu, he actually did it!"

"I just said Mr. Xu will never break his promise!"

"When we enter the city, we will rob them of all their food. Why are they so lucky to have escaped disaster, but we have to be homeless and begging..."

"Are you crazy? Didn't you hear what the captain said repeatedly? After we enter the city, we are not allowed to rob, steal, or kill. If you dare to commit any crime, we will be expelled from Lan County! You finally found a place to stay. Do you still want to live like this? Spend your days begging?"

"I heard Mr. Xu say that he will allocate land to us when he enters the city. Is it true or false?"

"Really or not? We want to divide the land? Then we...then we don't have a home? We are good citizens!!"

"That's what you said! What I just heard is true, so we will do whatever the superiors say. If you don't obey and don't give you the land, then you will be really at a loss!"

Xu Zhenying had arranged a lot of things before setting off, and soon a large vanguard force formed to explore the road. They confiscated the weapons and weapons of everyone in the city along the way, but only distributed them to a few people in the trustworthy exile team for use. Suppress disobedient refugees who want to take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble.

Xu Yinxi, Fang Ningmo and others, with hoarse voices, shouted over and over: "Yes, yes, yes, just as we agreed last night, there will be a team of twenty people, and the team leader will organize his 20 people!" The squadron leader will report to us after checking the number of people!"

"Squadron leader, have your people line up! The people from the second brigade are following the first brigade. Stop arguing. You will have endless things to say after entering the city!"

"Where are the three teams? If anyone is missing, hurry up and call for them!"

"Everyone!" Xu Yinxi got a gong from somewhere and beat it with a "buzzing" sound. She stood on a high place without any stage fright. Her throat was congested and her voice was hoarse. "Everyone repeat the request to enter the city. !”

Then the refugees' feeble voices sounded intermittently: "Don't steal, don't rob, don't hurt others, obey orders, abide by the rules, and be good citizens!"

"Boom boom boom!"

There were a few more gongs.

At this moment, Xu Yinxi finally understood Feng'er's wise words of "sometimes you have to be a shrew." She pointed at the homeless people below with a gong and hammer, and said in a hoarse voice: "What's the matter? Your voice is so low, you didn't remember." You’re staying, but you still haven’t eaten! Don’t tell me that you haven’t eaten, and you just made porridge in the morning! If you don’t remember, then don’t go to the city at all!”

The refugees then shouted at the top of their lungs: "Don't steal, don't rob, don't hurt others, obey orders, obey the rules, and be good citizens!"

This time the voice was finally neat and powerful.

It's strange that along with these shouts, smiles miraculously appeared on the faces of the refugees.

It's great to have entered the city.

No more running around, no more using the ground as a bed and the sky as a mat...

They finally had a place to stay.

Compared with the happy faces of the refugees, everyone in the city looked as if they were mourning for their heirs, with panic on their faces. They stood on both sides of the road with their wives and children, watching helplessly as the refugees walked in.

They imagined that these refugees were so hungry that they would do anything, not to mention burning, killing, looting, and even committing rape and robbery.

Although Mr. Sun had sent someone to say hello in advance, saying that he had negotiated with this gang of bandits and that they would behave themselves after entering the city, everyone would rather believe in the hatchet in their hand than in this gang of bandits!

How can you put your life in the hands of others, not to mention these people are a bunch of reckless people!
Some old people in the city have experienced bandits taking over the city. They will never forget that bloody and cruel scene until they grow old. At this moment, they were standing on both sides with frightened faces. When they saw Xu Zhenying and others who walked in first, They all knelt down on both sides and shouted: "Welcome the king to the city!"

No matter how reluctant everyone was, they were afraid of offending the new king, so they forced out a smile and shouted loudly to show their enthusiasm.

Xu Zhenying felt that her life was over.

She is a girl with so much life, why can't she always get rid of the low and vulgar title of "king"?
"Everyone."

The new king spoke.

The common people knelt on both sides, lowering their heads and winking at each other, but also sighing. I wonder if the king wants them to pay food or people?

There isn’t much food in the city!

What should this king do if he takes it hard?

"Before I entered the city, I had restrained my men not to steal, rob, or hurt others, but to obey orders, obey the rules, and be good citizens! If you find any of them violating it, you are welcome to report it to me at any time. I will definitely Severe punishment without mercy!"

Alas, how could this be?

Everyone looked up to see the new king.

That king is so young. He looks like a child, with a childish look on his face and two shallow dimples on his lips.Although he is young, he has a strong posture and sharp eyes. He cannot be underestimated at a glance.

"Also, we people are temporarily staying in your city. Whether and when we can leave depends on the situation outside. You also know that there are rogues everywhere now, and we need a place to shelter from the wind and rain. Therefore, in During the stay, I, Xu Zhenying, will take over everything in Lan County. If you have any questions or any situation, you can report it to me, Xu Zhenying. From now on, I, Xu Zhenying, will work in the county government office. You are welcome to respond at any time."

It's over, it's over, this grass-headed king still needs to take care of government affairs.

Everyone's hearts were filled with despair. Although they were dissatisfied, they did not dare to express it, for fear that if they said one more word, their heads would move.

Everyone could really see the power of the black gunpowder.

Damn it, this kind of thief is allowed to master such a powerful weapon!

"Finally, I don't like people kneeling down to me. You don't have to kneel down when you see me in the future." Xu Zhenying waved his hand, "This is it for the time being. Everyone has closed the door tightly these days and is not allowed to go out without my order. If there is any problem, we will I’ll come looking for someone.”

Threats, outright threats.

It implies that if they disobey you, they will come and chop your head off.

Although everyone was thinking this, they also felt that this king seemed a little different from other bandit leaders.

At least he spoke politely, made the rules clear, and didn't go on a killing spree after entering the city.

Especially the refugees under his command, although they all look disheveled and fierce, they are orderly, orderly and orderly despite the noise.

As soon as the residents in the city heard Xu Zhenying's orders, they immediately went home and locked their doors, as if they were afraid of staying a second longer.

The shops in the city are closed, and there is no one except the refugees. As five thousand refugees continue to enter the city, accommodation, food, and excretion are all problems!
Siege is only a small problem, and then people's livelihood is a big problem!
Xu Zhenying led people into the county government office. As he walked, he set out tasks very quickly: "Master Sun, please ask someone to hand over the fish scale book. What is the population of the county, how many villages and townships it governs, and the population of each township? How much land is cultivated, how much grain is currently stored in the county, and give me a list of wealthy households in the city!"

Sun Qingchen was a little shocked. He, the county magistrate, the chief registrar, the master and others were escorted in, and he asked: "You won't kill me?"

Xu Zhenying frowned: "Why should I kill you?"

"How can you occupy the city without killing me? I will not surrender to you! I am an official of the imperial court, and I cannot surrender to the hands of a thief like you! If you chop me with a knife as soon as possible, I, Sun Qingchen, will never even frown. !" Xu Zhenying thought that he had forgotten about this, so he ordered Da Zhuang: "Take a few brothers to surround County Magistrate Sun's house. The people inside are not allowed to go in or out, and food is provided."

He then said to Sun Qingchen: "You have reminded me that now the lives of your whole family, old and young, are in my hands. I order you not to leave me within twenty steps. If you dare to take one step away, I will kill everyone in your family!"

Sun Qingchen's face turned pale, and he almost rushed over, shouting: "You thief! Thief! The city is also given to you, why do you want to embarrass my family?!"

Xu Zhenying smiled slightly, "Since you have said that I am a thief, why can't I make things difficult for your family? As long as you obey, I will keep your family safe."

This Sun Qingchen is a rare managerial talent, and more importantly, he is ready-made!off the shelf!

There are so many government affairs in Lan County that even the production team's donkeys can't finish them!
She had to hold Sun Qingchen in her hands no matter what.

She secretly confessed to Da Zhuang: "Be kind to Magistrate Sun's family and try to meet their needs as long as they are not excessive. We want Sun Qingchen to work hard for us, so don't offend me."

Da Zhuang took the order and left.

Jiang Yongkang had already taken his brothers to change the city defenses and repair the blown-out city gates. Now they were in charge of Lan County. If the city walls were loose, it would be dangerous if they encountered other bandits.

Xu Zhenying was sitting in the main seat of the county government hall. There were a huge crowd of people standing below, all with blank faces, as if they were waiting for her to make arrangements.

Xu Zhenying has a big head.

With more than 5000 people, the first problem is food.

Seeing that Sun Qingchen looked upright and refused to cooperate, Xu Zhenying started with Master Yan: "Master Yan, tell me about the situation in Lan County."

Chief Yan secretly thought that you, a young boy who doesn't even know a single Chinese character, still want to take over the government affairs of Lan County?Sun Qingchen just happened to be ignored, and it was time for him to show off.

He had to make people realize his value in order to save his life for a short time.

"Back to the king, there are seven villages in Lan County with a total population of 320 people. The registered cultivated area is 520 acres. There is not much food in the granary at present, which is enough to feed the 1 people in the city. Ten days. Because the situation in the city is not bad and people's homes have surplus food for the time being, the granary has not been opened yet. This is the key to the granary."

Master Yan even handed over the keys to the granary.

This behavior was immediately despised by Master Sun and Yang Xiancheng.

However, Master Yan felt that these two people were ignorant of the current affairs. The bandits had already entered the door, so it would be too ridiculous for them to talk about their integrity at this time.

"Ten days." Xu Zhenying sighed. As a relatively affluent county, Lan County has such little food reserves. It is easy to imagine how stretched the situation in other towns is. "Rich families should have food."

Master Yan immediately slapped the snake on the stick with an enigmatic look: "Yes, yes, it's just... not very cooperative..."

Xu Zhenying glanced at him lightly, but suppressed the question, making Master Yan a little embarrassed.

He originally thought that the new king would at least ask him how to plunder food from wealthy households, but he didn't know that he was ignored at all.

Master Yan secretly sarcasticly said, "They are indeed a group of grass-roots workers. Seeing how many of you are getting food, it is only right that he pack up and prepare to run away!"
"Okay, you go down first. I will call you if anything happens." Xu Zhenying withdrew the original administrative team of Lan County, leaving only Magistrate Sun on his side.

"We will resettle the refugees first. There are so many people standing on the streets. If there is nothing for them to do, they will definitely cause trouble."

Xu Yinxi became bolder and suggested: "There must be vacant houses in the city, or houses that are uninhabited by refugees. We might as well clear out a batch of them first and resettle some of the refugees. As for the rest..."

Feng'er said: "Whichever house has a big house, make some room for us! Aren't there a lot of wealthy families in the city? Their houses are big, let them squeeze in."

Xu Huiming said: "I'm afraid these squires are not so easy to talk to."

"If you don't want to talk, just kill a bunch of them, establish your authority first, don't worry about being disobedient!"

Feng'er actually knows how to shout and kill.

"When we first entered the city, we said we wouldn't kill anyone. Now we're just killing people in half a stick of incense? What's the difference between us and the bandits?"

Xu Zhenying raised her hand, "Fourth sister, you take a group of people to resettle a group of refugees first. Don't let them stand there and cause trouble. I will have people vacate the house as soon as possible and ensure that every refugee has a bed tonight. sleep."

Xu Yinxi took the order and left.

"Fourth uncle, you bring someone to meet the local squires and come over to gather. Tell them that I have something important to discuss and ask them to talk to the county government."

"For the rest of us, let's have a small meeting. There are a lot of affairs in the city, so we can probably discuss the division of labor."

Sun Qingchen felt a little strange when he heard Xu Zhenying's methodical arrangements. He didn't expect that this kid had some knowledge, and he was even more defensive.

"Grandma and the others are still in Ye County. I need to go to Ye County alone to check the situation. If the situation is good, bring them to Lan County. Who do you think is suitable?"

Everyone looked at each other, Xu Huijia stood up and said, "I'll go."

Huang Cui'e was a little reluctant, but also speechless.

Her thought was how comfortable it would be to be a mountain king in Lan County. She had just settled down and had to go into the mountains. What if she met a bandit again?
"Okay. You are allowed to pick ten people to go. Get the food from the granary first. Speaking of the granary, mother, please go to the granary to verify the weight later. From now on, you will be responsible for the food. How much do we eat every day? How much was used, who received it, and who signed it all have to go through you. You have to be responsible for the import and export of food in Lan County."

Miao was a little hesitant. She didn't know much about literacy and had never done anything like this before. She was afraid that she wouldn't be able to shoulder the responsibility.

But her daughter always had a way of doing things, and it was hard for her to refuse in front of so many people, so she had no choice but to nod in agreement.

Xu Zhenying naturally has her own reasons for arranging this.

In these critical times, food is the most precious resource. She believes that she can still control the people in the team. She sent Miao because Miao is her mother. If others make decisions about food, they have to weigh it carefully. She has the weight of Xu Zhenying!

"Second Aunt, you have a lot of experience in managing the backyard. All the food, drink and food of these five thousand refugees are left to you. You must manage them in groups and follow the group management method. You must make the refugees who come into the city behave. Don’t cause any trouble.”

Lian felt that the burden on her shoulders had become heavier.

"Fourth Aunt, there is not enough food in the city. Could you please organize a group of women among the refugees who are clever and have experience in breeding and planting to come to me for a meeting in the evening to study it."

As for what he was studying, Lian didn't ask, and Xu Zhenying didn't say anything either.

Anyway, Mrs. Lian understood and asked her to find a woman who knew how to work.As for what to do specifically, Xu Zhenying would definitely give instructions, so why should she ask more.

"As for the city defense and security issues, I will leave them to Jiang Yongkang. By the way, Feng'er and Xu Yinxi are my personal secretaries. They will follow me from now on to deliver messages and write documents for me. Feng'er, you will send this to me later." The matter was conveyed to Jiang Yongkang, asking him to work harder these days and to do a good job in protecting the city."

Feng'er felt both emotion and fear in her heart.

This time is different from doing business, this is government affairs!What can only a Jinshi master do, just hit her on the head like this?

Feng'er agreed in a daze.

At this moment, someone came to report that all the local squires had closed their doors. Her people went up and were rejected, but no one opened the door for her.

After Xu Degui's experience in exile, he also had a gangster spirit. He said coldly: "I'm afraid that when we entered the city, we promised not to kill anyone, which would give them face. They really think that we are weak and can be bullied, and now they want to take advantage of us. Shit and piss.”

Xu Dekai also said: "Indeed! These wealthy people may look down on us, and they are giving us a disincentive."

Sun Qingchen, who was behind Xu Zhenying, twitched his lips and sneered.

The local gentry colludes with powerful forces, and their forces are complicated. Some of them are closely related to the court ministers. It is impossible to move and make no sense. Otherwise, Sun Qingchen would not be so stretched.
