Chapter 143 Suppression of bandits【6000 Subscription】

When Ning Chen heard that Wang Lin had come to find him,
The movement of drinking tea with his hands paused.

"Yuezhou banditry?"

Ning Chen repeated it, and then glanced at Xia Zhu who was pouring tea.

Ning Chen remembered that a few days ago, Xia Zhu was referring to her parents, who defected to her from Yuezhou because of famine and banditry.

Why has it been several days, and the banditry in Yuezhou has not subsided.

On the contrary, Wang Lin, the Minister of War, was alarmed.

After pondering for a while, Ning Chen said: "I have heard about the banditry of Wang Bingxiang.

My servant girl's family escaped from Yuezhou.

So I want to know more about the situation in Yuezhou and then make a decision. "

This matter must be understood in detail, after all, the event has been triggered.

You have to plan well.

In the past, the holy way was opened, and anything related to the holy way could not trigger events.

Now that it's finally going on, and another event is triggered, it must be planned carefully.

After all, this is a rare thing that requires hard work.

While taking the time to glance at the event options, he listened to Wang Lin talk about Yuezhou.

【Event selection】

[One, you refuse the Wanglin Mansion Guards to go out and get 100 [Loyalty] points. Afterwards, all evaluations related to the event will be automatically converted into corresponding reputation points. 】

[Second, you agree to the Wanglin Mansion's guards going on an expedition, and get [Ning] 100 points. Afterwards, all evaluations related to the event will be automatically converted into corresponding reputation points]

After looking at the options, Ning Chen restrained his thoughts and listened carefully to what Wang Lin said about Yuezhou.

After listening to Wang Lin's account of the Yuezhou incident, Ning Chen really felt that the Yuezhou bandits were really arrogant.

The reason why this matter came to Wang Lin.

The main reason is that the thugs in Yuezhou directly tied up the officials sent by the household department to collect grain.

If you rob ordinary people, the local government will naturally take care of this matter. As for whether to use force or not, that is another matter.

But now you have directly tied up the officials who have been ranked down by the court.

Especially now, when there is an urgent need to grab food, this is purely self-defeating.

"They have harvested two crops, are these bandits in Yuezhou hungry to die?

I have heard that bandits are everywhere in troubled times, but I have never heard of a bumper harvest year, and bandits are so rampant. "Ning Chen really expressed his incomprehension to these bandits in Yuezhou.

Wang Lin also analyzed to Ning Chen: "These bandits are most likely worried that after this bumper harvest, the government will turn around and liquidate them.

There was a famine in Yuezhou before, and these bandits in Yuezhou were very violent.

Now that the harvest is bumper again, they are of course worried about being liquidated.

So stop the grain collection and kidnap court officials, so that we can negotiate with the court at that time. "

Ning Chen nodded after hearing Wang Lin's analysis.

According to Wang Lin's analysis, those bandits are very likely to think so as Wang Lin said.

The Great Wu Dynasty was not the world Ning Chen came from.

In the Wu Dynasty, such things as Zhaoan still happened from time to time.

It is estimated that the bandits in Yuezhou also have the same calculation.

Taking another look at the event options, Ning Chen continued to ask: "President Wang, isn't the matter of suppressing the bandits originally a matter of the Fuwei Army? Why do you want to fight for it?"

Hearing Ning Chen asked this, Wang Lin couldn't help but say with some shame:

"Master Ning thinks you already know what Fuwei was like before.

It can be said that the previous guards were completely useless. "

Ning Chen continued to ask: "So if there was such a thing as suppressing bandits before, who would do it?"

Wang Lin said: "Basically, those military generals in the imperial court brought their own private soldiers to do such things. The government guards, at most, just cooperate."

According to the rules of the Wu Dynasty, generals can raise a certain number of private soldiers by themselves according to their grades.

For example, from a fifth-rank general, you can raise up to twenty private soldiers.

A military general of the fifth rank can raise up to fifty private soldiers.

From the fourth rank, you can raise less than [-] private soldiers.

The private soldiers here refer to real military personnel, and this is not counted as servants in the general's family.

So under normal circumstances, from the fifth-rank military generals who are more arrogant, counting the number of people who can be used by the family servants, it is roughly equivalent to a brigade.

The brigade is the establishment unit of the Wu Dynasty army. There are 100 people in a brigade and a brigade commander.

Although there are only 100 people, there is no problem at all to deal with ordinary bandits.

Because among these 100 people, not all of them are ordinary people.

Among them, there must be high-ranking warriors.

An entry-level warrior is at least equivalent to ten well-trained elite soldiers.

Among the 100 people, there are three or five martial arts masters, even if they are ninth rank.

That combat power is very terrifying, and it is absolutely easy to deal with ordinary bandits.

……

Now Wang Lin asked himself to fight for it, let the guards fight, Ning Chen understood what it meant.

It's nothing more than to rectify the name of the Fuwei army, and by the way, rectify his name as the soldier.

But there was one thing Ning Chen still couldn't figure out.

Suppressing bandits is of course beneficial.

For example, after the bandits are successfully suppressed, the imperial court will inevitably reward them with various rewards.

The most direct is the promotion of money and official position.

But banditry is not without risk.

Everyone should not be scrambling to go.

For this matter, he had to ask Wu Zhao to go through the back door, this Ning Chen couldn't figure it out.

After hearing Ning Chen's question, Wang Lin sighed and said helplessly:

"If Master Ning had been in the past, then no one would really compete with me for this job.

But it's different now. "

Ning Chen asked back, "What's the difference?"

Wang Lin said: "Master Ning, you opened the agricultural road and established Jiuding.

Then the next bandit suppression is directly linked to the national destiny.

Yuezhou's suppression of bandits is a clear indication of Bai Jian's credit and national destiny.

After returning, the rewards given by the court will definitely be more than before.

So at this time, everyone has to grab such a job. "

"So it is."

Ning Chen didn't think so deeply.

"Minister, let me ask one more question, how is the fighting power of our guards? Don't tell me that after I snatch it, the guards will be taken down by the bandits as soon as they go up. Then I will lose face?" Ning Chen said to Wang Lin. asked.

"Lord Ning, you can rest assured that after these two months of rectification of the government guards, the government guards have gathered a certain amount of combat power. There is still no problem in dealing with some bandits." Wang Lin assured, patted his chest.

When Wang Lin said that, Ning Chen knew what he should do.

Ning Chen would approve of the Fuwei Army's expedition, but only in favor of it.

What a joke.

You, Wang Lin, have strengthened the guards of the palace, and when the time comes, you will directly settle the bandits.

Directly eliminating harm for the people, what should I do with this [singer].

So I definitely agree with the Fuwei army going out, but if Wu Zhao does not choose the Fuwei army, then it has nothing to do with me.

"I'm relieved to have your words in mind.

Don't worry, soldier, when the time comes, I will fight for the chance for the guards. "

After Ning Chen thought about it, he patted his chest and assured Wang Lin.

Wang Lin got Ning Chen's guarantee, and said happily, "Then I would like to thank Master Ning, and I will send some people to prepare for the expedition."

Ning Chen said: "Prince Wang, you are too polite. I am also the right servant of the Ministry of War. If the Fuwei Army can regain its momentum, I am also Yourong."

Wang Lin praised again and again: "Master Ning is absolutely right."

After a pause, Wang Lin said to Ning Chen: "By the way, I heard that a new student came from the military family, and he was from Yunshan Academy.

Later, because he admired Lord Ning, he gave up his student status at Yunshan Academy and joined the military family. "

Ning Chen did not hide anything about Li Ziqiu.

So many people know about Li Ziqiu.

After all, with Li Ziqiu as a living example, it will be easier for Baijia Academy to recruit students.

"Wang Xiang intends to let him lead the army?" Ning Chen asked tentatively.

Wang Lindao: "How does Master Ning feel?"

Ning Chen said with a smile: "Wang Xiang really has a pair of discerning eyes.

Let me tell you, Wang Xiang, that Li Ziqiu is definitely a military genius.

From the current point of view, there is absolutely no problem in ranking among the top three military strategists. "

Ning Chen's words are definitely not fooling around.

Because so far, there are only three military strategists.

So Li Ziqiu must be the top three.

As for the Wizards, they are really Wizards.

It's just strange to see.

When Wang Lin heard that Ning Chen was so sure of Li Ziqiu, he immediately said happily, "Since Mr. Ning values ​​him so much, then I must be right to make him handsome."

Ning Chen smiled and said, "That's right, definitely right."

If Wang Lin is willing to make a fuss, let him do it. Anyway, the Fuwei Army couldn't go out in the end anyway.

"Lord Ning, I'll go talk to Li Ziqiu now and ask him to be the head coach of the bandit suppression."

Ning Chen nodded: "Your Majesty, please do as you please. Don't worry, Mr. Wang, Li Ziqiu will definitely go out with confidence."

Wang Lin's face was full of joy.

Wang Lin felt that this time, the Fuwei army would definitely be able to fight a beautiful turnaround.

Wang Lin happily left Ning Chen's place.

Ning Chen was equally happy.

Why?

Because this time, Ning Chen can get 100 [Ning] points if he lies flat.

When the time comes to convert it, it will be 10000 reputation points.

There is nothing more comfortable than lying on your back and paying off money from the sky.

On the morning of the second day, there were no accidents.

Lu Gao directly spoke about the banditry in Yuezhou with righteous indignation.

And after Lu Gao finished speaking, Hula stood up more than half of the generals at once.

All of them are fighting for the first place, wanting to personally lead troops to eliminate the banditry for the imperial court.

No way, after a day of thinking yesterday.

No matter how slow the reaction of these generals is, they now understand that the banditry in Yuezhou this time is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make great contributions.

And after this meritorious service, the imperial court must have given him a lot.

After all, this time it is directly accumulating luck for the imperial court.

If the court doesn't give much, who can desperately accumulate luck for the court?

After those generals scrambled for the first place, Wang Lin robbed them a lot.

Finally, he came out holding a wat board and said: "Your Highness, I think it is the duty of the Ministry of War to suppress bandits.

The minister thought that this time Yuezhou suppressed the bandits, he should send the government guards to go out. "

Hearing Wang Lin's suggestion, the general was quiet for about half a minute.

Then the generals made mocking and mocking voices one by one.

"Fujian? Can you still fight?"

"If you don't say anything, Wang Bingxiang, I'd forget that we still have the Fuwei Army?"

"Wang Bingxiang, if you let the guards go, are you going to suppress the bandits or send weapons to the bandits?"

"Minister, I speak straight. I think that if you send the guards, you are simply sending them to your death. The guards can still fight, and they won't be able to run fast if they escape."

These generals are indeed straightforward enough, the most important thing is that they are really merciless when they speak one by one.

The face that Wang Lin said is the same as opening a dyeing workshop, it will turn blue for a while, white for a while, and red for a while.

Seeing Wang Lin being attacked by the generals, the other civil officials didn't intend to stand up and help.

no way.

The Fuwei Army is really bad.

Helping at this time is tantamount to admitting that one's brain is not working.

Others Wang Lin can't count on him, Wang Lin can only look at Ning Chen.

Ning Chen saw Wang Lin looking at him, nodded to Wang Lin, and then stood up: "Your Highness, I agree with the proposal of the military minister."

After finishing speaking, Ning Chen stood back.

Wang Lin looked at Ning Chen who retreated, and was a little dazed for a while.

If you second it, it counts as helping?

Is this help too perfunctory?

Not to mention Wang Lin, even Wu Zhao could see it.

Ning Chen was really perfunctory.

As for those generals, because Ning Chen retreated too quickly, they didn't react at all, and Ning Chen came out to this matter.

They are still attacking Ning Chen.

Lin Dunxin, on the other hand, after hearing Ning Chen's proposal, stood up holding a wat board and said, "Your Highness, the old minister thinks that the guards of the government can be sent to suppress the bandits."

Ning Chen, who was standing there watching his nose and mind, suddenly heard Lin Dunxin's words.

He looked directly at Lin Dunxin with a murderous expression on his face.

"I'll clear the way for you, but you stabbed me in the back. You're a little bit unreasonable."

On the contrary, Wang Lin couldn't help but smile.

At the same time, he looked at Ning Chen again, showing a smile that I understood.

Seeing that the [Ning] point that can be obtained by lying flat is about to disappear.

Ning Chen planned to stand up and fight for reason.

But before Ning Chen stood up, Lin Dunxin spoke again: "Your Highness and old minister think that, except for the guards.

Similarly, one or two generals should be selected to go out at the same time as the Fuwei Army.

With this two-pronged approach, the banditry in Yuezhou can be resolved early. "

After listening to Lin Dunxin's words, Ning Chen stopped his feet as he was about to step forward.

Apparently, Lin Dunxin didn't believe in the capabilities of the Fuwei army.

The reason why he stood up was obviously to return Ning Chen's favor for helping to clear the way.

Wang Lin heard Lin Dunxin's proposal.

The brows could not help but wrinkle.

The guards and generals went out together.

This competition is all about speed.

The quality of the government guards is no longer at the same level as that of generals and private soldiers.

If the speed of the two is compared, the Fuwei Army probably won't be able to catch up with the horse.

Just when Wang Lin was going to continue fighting for it.

Wu Zhao directly said with a final word: "Just follow the method that the Prime Minister said, and use two prongs.

The Fuwei army and three of the generals set off to Yuezhou to suppress the bandits. "

"Sir, take orders!"

When Wu Zhao opened his mouth, that was the final word.

If you don't accept it, you have to accept it.

Moreover, such a result was not unacceptable to Wang Lin.

After all, the Fuwei Army has accumulated a lot and it is hard to return. I want Lin Dunxin and Wu Zhao to believe in the fighting power of the Fuwei Army all at once.

It's really hard.

It is already very good to be able to win a chance to go out together now.

Wang Lin's side took orders, but the military commander's side became noisy.

There are only three places.

There are more than [-] generals who stand up.

Who will go and who will not.

This is a problem.

Fortunately, Wu Zhao is experienced in handling such disputes.

Draw lots!

Whoever catches it is whoever it is.

This is fair and just, and the province has to reason with them.

To reason with Wu Fu, it is unless the work is tired and crooked.

After going through a strict lottery process, a total of three generals successfully stood out.

After confirming the appropriateness of sending troops, Wu Zhao immediately dispersed.

Wu Zhao didn't pay much attention to the banditry in Yuezhou.

It's just a mere banditry problem. It's not a big problem if there are three generals with private soldiers, plus the government guards.

What Wu Zhao needs to worry about is far from Yuezhou.

But in the northern border, southern border, and western regions.

These three sides are not too calm now.

The Wu Dynasty Jiuding is now in the world, and no one wants to see the Wu Dynasty grow bigger.

It's just that everyone is relatively restrained at the moment.

But if the Wu Dynasty had condensed the luck of the three tripods in advance, then everyone would not be so restrained.

In fact, what the three of them didn't know was that Wu Zhao had secretly gathered half of his luck here.

This half tripod luck, Wu Zhao discovered it when he left the East Palace after Ning Chen broke through.

Although he didn't know why he had gained half of his luck, but Wu Zhao knew that this half of his luck must be related to Ning Chen.

Of course, the facts are also related, because this is after Ning Chen exchanged with Wenshan Shuhai.

The power of Wenshan Shuhai exploded, which directly made the Great Wall of Righteous Qi more stable, and fed back to Wu Zhao's half-full luck.

……

After the court was over, Wang Lin quickly caught up with Ning Chen, and said to Ning Chen in a low voice: "Lord Ning, you should fight hard."

Ning Chen said to Wang Lin with a helpless face: "Prince Wang, think about it, what was our guard army like before.

You really made everyone believe that the Fuwei Army can suppress bandits.

I'm afraid this is not realistic, and the current result is already the best. "

Wang Lin sighed helplessly, then cupped his hands to Ning Chen, and said, "I know Master Ning has done his best. This result is indeed excellent. I shouldn't have complained to Master Ning just now."

Ning Chen waved his hands generously and said: "President Wang, we are all from the Ministry of War. We are all for the good of the Ministry of War. Xiang Wang is anxious, and I am also anxious.

But no matter how anxious we are, we can't change everyone's impression of the Fuwei Army all at once.

We can't be in a hurry, we have to take it step by step.

This time they can send troops together, and next time they might be able to send troops alone.

Let's change everyone's impression of the Fuwei Army, and we can't be in a hurry. "

After all, Bai --- prostituted Wang Lin as a favor, so Wang Lin complained to him about it, and Ning Chen was really not angry.

As for Lin Dunxin's side, it would be good if Ning Chen didn't blame him.

Thanks, that's simply impossible to thank.

If it weren't for Lin Dunxin, at the critical moment, he said the idea of ​​sending troops together.

Ning Chen broke Lin Dun's faith in the Holy Way.

"Does Master Ning have time?" Wang Lin asked Ning Chen.

"What orders does the king have?"

Wang Lindao: "Lord Ning, follow me to the camp of the government guards outside the city, and go with me to see those government guards who are preparing to go out."

"Alright."

Ning Chen nodded and agreed.

An hour later, Ning Chen and Wang Lin arrived at a camp of the guards outside Fengjing City.

In addition to the capital city of Fengjing, there are four prefectures and twenty counties nearby.

The four prefectural cities are in the dead corners of Fengjing.

The twenty counties are dotted all over, in the blank spaces between the prefectures and cities.

Cao Xing's Jing Zhaoyin is in charge of these four prefectures and [-] counties, plus some squares and cities in Fengjing City near the city gate.

The Fuwei Camp where Ning Chen and Wang Lin are currently located is the Fuwei Camp of Dongning Mansion.

According to the regulations, the four guards around Fengjing are all high-level guards.

Each prefecture should have a standard of 1200 people.

But at this moment in Dongning Mansion, Ning Chen only has 800 people.

And even with these 800 people, they can barely be regarded as neat and tidy.

The guards who are so close to Fengjing all have this virtue.

It is conceivable that it must be a virtue to be far away from Fengjing's Fuwei.

So it was only natural that Lin Dun believed in them and had no confidence in Fuwei.

"Lord Ning, tell everyone some words of honor." Wang Lin said to Ning Chen.

Ning Chen glanced at the guards below, hesitating for a moment.

Still decided to say some real strong words.

Anyway, these government guards don't even have a chance to go to Yuezhou, so why be mean to them.

Ning Chen cleared his throat, and then said loudly:

"Everyone!
Although I am the right servant of the Ministry of War.

But I don't know much about the Ministry of War.

But I know the grievances in your hearts,

I also know the pain in everyone's heart.

I know that everyone has a heart to serve the country.

It's just the previous inherent impression that made everyone look down on our guards.

Everyone is standing and pissing man.

No one is less than anyone else.

What others can do, I believe you can too.

I can't follow everyone across the state to support everyone.

But I sent Li Ziqiu, who has a deep research on military strategists in my Hundred Schools Academy, to everyone.

As long as you do what he says,

I don't believe that our government guards can't turn the sky over.

We have won the face by ourselves, and we don't like what others give us.

I might as well tell you straight, that [Tiger Might] wine is made by me.

I also named it.

What I want is the future, my house guard, Tiger!Tiger!Tiger! "

Ning Chen's provocative words directly made the guards below, who were distracted, stare at each other.

Seeing this scene, Ning Chen felt that his strength might be a bit too much.

So Ning Chen changed the subject directly and said:
"But even this time, we really couldn't save face.

That doesn't matter, we don't talk about heroes for a while.

Only when you hit the bottom can you rebound and be suppressed again.

It's not a bad thing for our guards.

Only when we are crushed more miserable, can we fly higher when we fly.

Let more people see that our guards are full of courage! "

"Tiger! Tiger! Tiger!"

Li Ziqiu, who was standing at the front, took the lead and yelled out after hearing Ning Chen's words.

It's just that after Li Ziqiu yelled, no one paid any attention to him.

On the contrary, everyone was watching Li Ziqiu.

It seems that such a fool came out of nowhere.

Such a government guard really made Ning Chen feel at ease.

　Thanks to Xiaoshu for the continuous rewards, and thanks to the passing-Douwu for the 5000 rewards. This is the first time I have received such a large amount of rewards. Thank you to the two bosses, Rui Sibai! ! !
