The best little eunuch

Chapter 43 The Captive Problem
Chapter 43 The Captive Problem
"There should be. The number of people in each village is different. I think the number of people in our Ruanjiazhai is very small, just over 700. Some large villages may have thousands of people." Ruan Ling'er explained to Lin Feng.Each village has a different situation, and the number of people is also different.

"As the chief rudder, your village is actually not the largest in number?" Lin Feng asked in disbelief.Ruan Ling'er only has 700 people, can those villages with a large number of people listen to her?

After giving Lin Feng a blank look, Ruan Ling'er said: "We are a green forest, and we are not more numerous than anyone else. Although the Ruan Family Village only has 700 people, they can be worth at least a few thousand people if we go out. They are all good players!" Ruan Ling'er, a member of her own village, is obviously very confident, which is also her pride.Although there are many people in other villages, compared to who can fight, it is definitely her Ruanjiazhai.

"Then...do these thousands of people listen to you?" Lin Feng asked as he began to think about how to use these thousands of people.The anti-insurgency army is short of manpower, if thousands of new troops can join, it will definitely be a timely help for the anti-insurgency army.

After thinking about it carefully, Ruan Ling'er said: "Most of them should listen to me. The eighteen villages are just an alliance. Although I am the chief helmsman of the eighteen villages, it is only to fight against the imperial court's encirclement and suppression." , In fact, the Eighteen Villages are independent of each other."

"Then how long will it take you to call them all to your village?" Lin Feng asked.If these people were gathered together and joined the counter-insurgency army, that would be the perfect result.Of course, all these are good ideas in Lin Feng's heart, and it is uncertain whether they will be successful.

"They are far and near. It will take at least half a month if all of them are summoned." Ruan Ling'er thought carefully and said.

Half a month, this time is indeed a bit long, Lin Feng asked: "How many people can come in two days?"

"In two days, people from the nearby cottages could only come here. There should only be more than 1000 people." Ruan Ling'er thought for a while and said.There are only a few cottages nearby, and most of them are far away from Ruanjiazhai.After all, the cottages are too concentrated, which will affect each other and cause the government to encircle and suppress them vigorously.

Adding more than 1000 people to the 700 people in Ruanjiazhai, there are almost 2000 people. 2000 people are not a small help for the counter-insurgency army. "Then can you call them all?"

Looking at Lin Feng vigilantly, Ruan Ling'er asked, "What did you ask them to do?" Ruan Ling'er was worried that Lin Feng was trying to take over all the Eighteen Villages in the south of the Yangtze River.In that case, she would never agree.

Knowing that Ruan Ling'er misunderstood what he meant, Lin Feng said: "That's right, I want them to do the imperial court a favor. After the matter is completed, the imperial court will definitely thank you well."

"So, you admit that you are a member of the imperial court?" Ruan Ling'er's last illusion was also shattered.Lin Feng is really a member of the imperial court, since ancient times there has been a conflict between officials and thieves.There is probably nothing between them.

"Yes, I am the imperial court's anti-insurgency army. I have an official seal, but I don't know where to throw it. But when I arrive at the anti-insurgency army's barracks, I can prove my identity." Lin Feng thought Ruan Ling'er didn't believe it. In his own words, he opened his mouth to explain.

"Your official seal is with me. I'll send someone to send it to you later." Ruan Ling'er said a little disappointed.

Hearing that the official seal was with Ruan Ling'er, Lin Feng said, "Now do you believe my identity?"

"I believe it. Did you ask me to call people here for something?" Ruan Ling'er asked. Although she knew that it was impossible between the two of them, Ruan Ling'er was still willing to help Lin Feng.Even though this might be a trick that Lin Feng set up for himself, in order to wipe out all the people in the Eighteen Villages in the south of the Yangtze River.

"I hope you can assist the imperial court in suppressing the rebellion. Don't worry, the imperial court will never forget your great help. When King Wu's rebellion is quelled, the imperial court will reward you for your merits. At that time, you can choose to join the army , or you can choose to go back to your hometown, and the court will ignore all the past events." Lin Feng stated his conditions.He felt that this was not bad for these green forest heroes.

"What if there are still people who want to stay on the mountain? Will the imperial court send a large army to encircle and suppress them?" Ruan Ling'er asked.Just as Lin Feng said, everyone has the right to choose their own life path, and there will definitely be some people who are unwilling to go down the mountain.That's why Ruan Ling'er asked this question.

After thinking for a while, Lin Feng said: "If they really don't want to go down the mountain, that's okay, as long as they don't do anything wrong, the court will not touch them."

"Okay! I promise to help you. I hope you are not using me." Ruan Ling'er replied almost without hesitation.

Called by Ruan Ling'er, the leaders of several nearby villages quickly rushed to Ruan's Village with their experts from their respective villages.For a while, the originally quiet Ruanjiazhai became boiling.

In the conference hall, Ruan Ling'er sat at the head, and Lin Feng sat beside her.

"I don't know why the chief helmsman summoned us here? He actually asked everyone to bring their own masters." The first to stand up and speak was Sun Xuanfeng, the head of the Sun Family Village.His Sun Family Village is also the largest in the vicinity.There are nearly a thousand people under his command, so besides Ruan Ling'er, this is the most attractive green forest nearby.

As soon as Sun Xuanfeng spoke, the other leaders started talking in a hurry, and immediately, the meeting room became noisy.

"Everyone be quiet." Ruan Linger raised her voice as much as possible and said, "Everyone be quiet, listen to me." Ruan Linger stood up, pointed at Lin Feng beside her, and said, "This is Lin Feng, the court's anti-rebellion general. "

"People from the imperial court?" For a moment, all the leaders present were on guard.Ruan Ling'er and the imperial court came together, could it be that they want to wipe out all of them?No wonder you let yourself bring everyone.

"What is the meaning of the chief rudder? Is it to let the imperial court wipe us out? Don't forget, we still have many brothers from the village who have not come, and they will avenge us!" Some impatient leaders have already started to attack Ruan. Ling'er spoke harshly.

"Everyone, be quiet." Seeing that the situation might get out of control, Lin Feng quickly stood up and said loudly, "Everyone, if the imperial court is trying to catch you all, do you think you can still sit in the conference hall so comfortingly?"

"Then what are you going to do?" Sun Xuanfeng asked.He could also see that the imperial court probably wouldn't deal with them, otherwise, as the first group of people who came to Ruan's Village, Sun Xuanfeng had already stayed in Ruan's Village for two days, and nothing happened during that time.

"Presumably, you all have heard about King Wu's rebellion against the imperial court?" Lin Feng asked.

"What does this have to do with us? That's your court's own business. Anyway, you are like a dog biting a dog, and the more fierce the bite, the better." Obviously, Sun Xuanfeng didn't like people from the court very much. It is very welcome.

Taking a step forward, Lin Feng walked up to Sun Xuanfeng and said, "This leader's words are wrong. Think about it, everyone, if King Wu's army messes up Jiangnan, then your business will not be good." Let’s do it. After all, it’s better to be in peace than in troubled times.”

"It's a big deal, brothers, just change places." Sun Xuanfeng said.If the war gets bigger and bigger, then this rich place in the south of the Yangtze River may be destroyed.At that time, people like them in the green forest had no food to eat.After all, the people at the foot of the mountain have nothing to eat, so who else are you going to grab?
"Haha, this leader, you said it lightly. May I ask if people from other places come to your site to grab food, will you agree?" Lin Feng asked.

"Of course I don't agree, this is my territory." Sun Xuanfeng said immediately.If they want people from other places to come to their side to grab food, then why did they set up this Eighteen Villages Alliance in the first place?Isn't it for the purpose of preventing people from other places from coming over?The Eighteen Villages are unanimous to the outside world, which also makes those crossing the river fearful.

"You see, the head of the family, you will not agree to people from other places coming to your site to grab food. The same reason, will people from other places allow you to go to their site to grab food?" Lin Feng continued to ask road.

When Lin Feng said this, Sun Xuanfeng also felt that it was so reasonable, and said: "You are right. But, what does this have to do with you calling us all here?"

"Of course there is a relationship. Now, we have common interests. And our purpose is also the same, that is to eradicate Wu Wang's rebellion." Lin Feng said passionately, in order to make these leaders agree to fight Wu Wu with him. king.

After Lin Feng finished speaking, Sun Xuanfeng sneered, and said: "Pull it down. This has nothing to do with us. If you want to beat King Wu, you go yourself. We don't want to die. We are not enough for King Wu's army." It's between the teeth." Obviously, Sun Xuanfeng is not the kind of person who is easily bewitched.

After listening to Sun Xuanfeng's words, Lin Feng thought bitterly in his heart: Why are you so unaware?The righteousness of the country should be the most important thing.However, Lin Feng could not say these words to them, even if he did, they would not listen to them.It's like the saying goes: When a scholar meets a soldier, he can't explain why.

Seeing that Lin Feng couldn't persuade these leaders, Ruan Ling'er quickly chimed in and said, "You leaders, don't you think what General Lin said is right? If King Wu's army and the court mess up Jiangnan, how will we survive in the future? Are you really going to go to another place, seek refuge with other people, live under someone else's roof, and live on the breath of others?"

"Prince Chief, I know what Lin is saying is right, but we can't help the imperial court. If the imperial court recovers, we can't turn around and beat us!" An older leader stood up. Come out and say.

"Uncle Zhou, you are overthinking. Over the years, hasn't the imperial court wiped us out? As long as we don't go too far, the imperial court will not send troops to exterminate us. And we have helped the imperial court a lot this time. The imperial court will never forget us." Ruan Ling'er said to Zhou Chai's village owner Zhou Yishui.

Zhou Zhoushui and Ruan Linger's father have a very good relationship, and Zhou Yishui has regarded Ruan Linger as his daughter since she was a child, so Ruan Linger has always been called Uncle Zhoushui.

"Yes, your Chief Steward is right. You have helped the court this time, and the court will never forget you. After defeating King Wu, if you wish, I can guarantee that you will join the army. If you are not fit Yes, I will also arrange to work in yamen in various places, and I will definitely not treat everyone badly." Lin Feng also hurriedly said while the iron was hot.He said what he had agreed with Ruan Ling'er in advance.

Glancing at Lin Feng, Zhou Zhoushui asked, "Can you be the master? How high are you?" Looking at Lin Feng's young age, Zhou Zhoushui felt that Lin Feng's official position must not be high.For a person with a low official position, his promise cannot be fulfilled to a large extent, because there are too many people above him.

Arching his hands at Zhou Yishui, Lin Feng said: "I am the general who suppressed the rebellion appointed by the imperial court. In terms of rank, he is the third grade."

These three types of generals are not often set up, and they are temporarily appointed by the court only when necessary, just like Lin Feng was appointed as the general to suppress the rebellion this time. Military power, great seal.And he, the counter-insurgency general, can be regarded as resigning.However, the grade will be preserved.

That is to say, in the future, Lin Feng will be awarded at least the third rank. He thought that through this counter-rebellion general, Lin Feng's rank will reach the third rank. military officer.Of course, Lin Feng is an eunuch in name, as for how the court will reward him, I don't know, because since the founding of this dynasty, no eunuch has ever led an army alone.Lin Feng was the first.

"That's at the same level as the commander-in-chief of the provinces." Zhou Yishui, who was familiar with the court system, said.The imperial court set up a governor in each province, and below the governor, there is a general soldier to assist the governor in managing the soldiers and horses of a province. The general soldier is the third grade.

"Now Chief Zhou can trust my words?" Lin Feng asked.I'm already at the same level as the chief soldier, you still don't believe me?This is not appropriate.
