Chapter 82 There is an enemy again (please follow up)
  To the east of Fugu City, Guo Mansion.

Guo Xiangdong, the owner of "Yihe Hao" grain and oil store, is receiving a customer.

"Master Guo, you have also seen the fate of our Liu family. If we don't resist earlier, it will be too late by the time the knife is placed on our necks." Liu Tong, the housekeeper of Liu Jingsheng, a member of the Yulin Guard family, advised.

"But the last operation arranged by your Liu family failed. If it fails this time, won't it affect our Guo family even more?" Guo Xiangdong said worriedly.

"Master Guo, Lin Feng is a man but not a god. The last time was because of a traitor. Without the whistleblower from Baihu Station, how could we have failed.

Very few people know this time, and they will never leak the secret. Moreover, it was so cold that no one could imagine that anyone would attack the city. If our Liu family's power in the county hadn't been uprooted, we wouldn't need your help. Liu Tong continued.

"Really sure?" Guo Xiangdong asked next.

"Absolutely sure!" Liu Tong replied.

"Guo Lian, tell me?" Guo Xiangdong still couldn't make up his mind and asked his housekeeper.

"Master, our Yihe Hao used to occupy more than 80% of the Fugu grain and oil market, but now it has dropped to less than 40%.

Relying on the support of the county government, Li's Cereals and Oils became more and more aggressive. This time we were fined another 1000 taels of silver, which was also a crippling injury. If it continues, it will be difficult for us to make a living. "Guo Lian is responsible for the operation of the Yihe on weekdays, so he first discussed the business situation.

"Master Guo, the loss of business is a trivial matter. We are big families and there are always things like this and that. If that person named Lin gets caught, it will be like confiscation of the family and annihilation of the clan." Liu Tong gave another dose of strong medicine.

"Master, we can take a two-pronged approach. On the one hand, we can assist Liu Qianhu to see if we can deal with Lin Feng at once. On the other hand, we can go to the capital to find the master's clan brother, Guo Sheng, Guo Yushi of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and accuse Lin Feng. Regarding persecuting the gentry and blindly changing the land policy, we seek to resolve it through official negotiations." Guo Lianlian said.

Lin Feng confiscated 8,000 acres of land owned by the Liu family, converted most of it into county government-owned land, and then leased it to refugees for farming. This affected the lives of the landowners and squires.

"This matter is of great importance. Let me think about it again." Guo Xiangdong still hesitated. Matters related to the life and death of the family must be cautious.

"Master Guo, our Liu family still has a group of dead soldiers in the city. They will be responsible for the work then. All you have to do is do this..." Lin Tong leaned into Guo Xiangdong's ear and said a few words.

"This way, our risk is much smaller. Okay, our Guo family has done it!" Guo Xiangdong finally made up his mind, and another conspiracy was completed.

County government office.

Lin Feng was working in the room, and Lin Jiakang came in with Guo Zheng.

"Your Majesty, we have heard news that the Mongolian Tatars are preparing to invade the pass due to lack of supplies in winter.

A very unusual situation occurred in the border defense that Yulin Guard Liu Qianhu was in charge of. On the pretext of conducting some winter march training, they transferred all the defensive forces north of Fugu, as if to make room for the Mongolian Tatars. Once they invade, we in Fugu will be the first to suffer. " Guo Zhenghui reported.

The spies arranged by Tingfeng Pavilion in Qiangbao, Yulinwei Town were very effective, and it didn't take long to find out this important news.

The main reason is that the Ming Dynasty is leaking information everywhere, and Hou Jin has clearly discovered all the information, let alone the lowest guard station, which can be said to have no intelligence awareness.

"Oh, it seems that Liu Qianhu wants to use the Mongolian Tatars to deal with us." Lin Feng understood it as soon as he heard it.

"Your Majesty, the fighting power of the Mongolian Tatars is not comparable to that of the refugees. My little suggestion is to be fully prepared." Guo Zheng reminded.

"Of course. You Tingfeng Pavilion will continue to investigate and grasp the enemy's traces. You must pay attention to whether the Mongolian Tatars have invaded. You must also pay attention to whether Liu Qianhu will take the risk and personally lead troops to attack the city. The defense of Fugu I will arrange it." Lin Feng then ordered. After Guo Zheng left, Lin Feng immediately called Fang Tiezhu and Fang Xiaoyu and said to them: "Tie Zhu, Liu Qianhu of Yulin Guard has been preparing to make trouble again recently. He may let the Mongolian Tatars attack the county. You must be fully prepared.”

"Don't worry, county magistrate. Our civilian team is now strong and strong, and it will definitely be no problem to withstand small-scale attacks." Fang Tiezhu replied.

"That's good. Xiaoyu and your fishing team must focus on what's going on inside the county. You must not give them the chance to collude with others," Lin Feng emphasized.

"Don't worry, Lord County. The only ones who have enmity against us in the city are the Liu family and the Guo family of the Yihe. Now that the Liu family has been defeated, we should focus on the Guo family." Fang Xiaoyu said.

"Keep an eye on that Guo family, I always feel like there's something wrong." Lin Feng said.

"Understood, we will keep a close eye on it." Fang Xiaoyu said.

After the two left, Lin Feng still felt uneasy. After thinking about it, he wrote a warrant again, asking Lin Jiakang to be sent to Sitong Village immediately, and ordered Wang Qin to lead a team of guards secretly down the mountain and stationed in the county in order to deal with various emergencies. situation.

In the afternoon, Wang Qin came over with the Second Guard Squadron.

"President, one hundred escorts have quietly entered the city. We came in as a four-way express convoy to transport supplies, so we shouldn't have disturbed anyone." Wang Qin came over and reported.

Lin Feng poured a cup of tea himself and handed it over and said: "The weather is so cold, let's drink a cup of hot tea first."

"Thank you, President!" Wang Qin sat down, picked up the tea cup and drank without any courtesy.

"How many fire guns does your squadron have now?" Lin Feng asked.

"The squadron is now equipped with 50 firecrackers, 30 bows and arrows, and 20 team members are equipped with long knives for close combat." Wang Qin replied.

"The production of fire guns is still not increasing." Lin Feng was very depressed.

"Yes, but recently Captain Zhao is leading people from the ordnance factory to study the steam engine. He said that after the research is completed, it will greatly increase the production of fire guns." Wang Qin replied.

"You also know this."

"How could I not know? Captain Zhao is like a man possessed. He wishes he could spend twelve hours a day studying there. We have advised him several times to get some rest."

"He's a newbie. He spends all his time studying new technologies. When I'm free, I'll go and persuade him in person. It won't do any harm to my body."

"President, if there is nothing else, I will go and prepare first."

"Okay, go ahead. Your squadron will be on standby near the North City Gate first." Lin Feng finally gave the order.

"Yes!" Wang Qin took the order and left.

　The enemy is always restless and always wants to be the transport captain.
