Chapter 116 Controlling the Prefect's Mansion
All the officials were taken aback for a moment, and then a small official said, "It's Luo Tong who reported to the prefect. He used to be the deputy captain. Later, because he offended Zhang Shihe, Zhang Shihe sued the general manager Yuchi and was demoted to guard the city." soldier."

After intimidating all the officials, then the next thing Li Yizhi wants to rectify is naturally the county soldiers.

The county soldiers are different from the officials. The power of the officials comes from the prefect. As long as they are subdued, they will basically not be able to make trouble in the future.

But the county soldiers are different, because it is a kind of violent power in itself, and it must be fully grasped, and Zhang Yunhe's confidantes left behind must be eliminated, and replaced by people he trusts.

And he himself couldn't put too much energy on the county soldiers, so he had to find someone to manage them for him.

Whether this person is capable or not is second, and the ultimate thing is to have a grudge against Zhang Yunhe, because only such a person will be grateful to him and help him control the county soldiers wholeheartedly.

Li Yizhi chuckled, it was a surprise that he was a deputy captain.

Then thinking about coming to Luotong, whether it is strategy or prestige, it should not be bad, so it will be easier to control the county soldiers.

"Who is this Luo Tong, and what did he offend Zhang Yunhe?"

The little official replied: "Reporting to the prefect, Luo Tong is said to be the governor of Youzhou and the nephew of General Luo Yiluo. A year ago, Zhang Yunhe was appointed as the captain. He bought and sold military positions many times, and Luo Tong It was destroyed, so I held a grudge. But I was afraid of General Luo Yiluo, and I didn't dare to kill him, so I was only relegated to the city guard."

Li Yizhi nodded, and said: "Very well, you seem to know Luo Tong very well. Now go down and find Luo Tong."

"Yes, prefect!"

The little official agreed excitedly.

Now that Zhang Yunhe was killed, Luo Tong, as the original deputy captain, had a grudge against Zhang Yunhe, so there was a high probability that he might be appointed as the new captain.

"Xue Zhen, Gao Shouyi." Li Yizhi shouted.

The two men trembled, and quickly responded: "The lower official is here."

"Nowadays the world is in chaos and refugees are everywhere. Because we are close to the Jiangdu Palace, our Yangzhou has not experienced war for a long time. It is relatively stable, but it has also gathered a large number of refugees. Next, the focus of your work is to organize the refugees and reclaim wasteland. , the government will provide a set of agricultural tools and seeds, and lease them to the refugees, and try to complete the farming within one month."

Li Yizhi said: "This is the task I gave you, and I will inspect it in a month. If you complete it well, your 'warning' today will not only be cancelled, but you will also be rewarded. But if you do not complete it well, you will be punished severely." .”

"The subordinate takes orders!"

Xue Zhen and Gao Shouyi hurriedly agreed, not daring to refuse.

Li Yizhi waved his hand and said, "Okay, it's getting late, you all go down."

"promise!"

All the officials retreated one after another, Zhang Yunhe's body was also dragged away, and was quickly washed clean with clean water.

In the meeting hall, only Li Yizhi and Yin Kaishan were left.

"Master Yin."

"Subordinates are here."

Li Yizhi looked at Yin Kaishan, and pondered: "About the Bamboo Flower Gang, with my support in the future, you should stop doing things that bully the market, and you can do some legitimate businesses, such as opening restaurants and casinos. Not only make money, but also You can hear all kinds of news."

"Yes!"

Yin Kaishan is naturally happy to agree that he can make money decently, and they are not willing to bully ordinary people.

Li Yizhi said: "Also, in the future, we must pay attention to the cultivation of the quality of the disciples of the Bamboo Flower Gang, and build a good relationship with ordinary people, so that in the future, I can use you in a fair and honest manner."

"Yes, prefect, please keep this in mind."

"Well, there's nothing else to do, you can go back."

"Subordinates retire."

After Yin Kaishan left, Li Yizhi sat on the prefect's chair, closed his eyes and meditated.

He kept replaying the previous things in his mind, checking for gaps and making up for omissions, to see if there were any omissions or areas that needed improvement.

Li Yizhi doesn't think he is the kind of person who is amazingly talented, so he pays special attention to "introspection". Whether it is practicing or doing things, he will recall afterwards and reflect on himself.

Finally, he slowly opened his eyes, and said to himself: "There is nothing wrong with today's matter, and the next step is to write a memorial to Yang Guang to explain this matter, so as not to be caught by Yu Wenhua. .”

Although the captain was the prefect, he was appointed by the imperial court. Even if he made a mistake, it would not be Li Yizhi's turn to kill him. This was not only arrogance, but also violated the emperor's taboo.

Because military power is the most important thing for the emperors of all dynasties, no one is allowed to interfere without authorization.

But what happened today, Li Yizhi could have written that Zhang Yun and his subordinates committed crimes and intended to assassinate him, so he had no choice but to kill him on the spot.

With Yu Shiji and Pei Yun covering up, he didn't have to worry about Yu Wenhuaji's complaint at all.

Thinking of this, Li Yizhi came to the side hall where he worked, began to write the memorial, and called Kou Zhong.

"Kou Zhong, you personally deliver this memorial to the Jiangdu Palace and hand it over to Yu Shiji."

"Okay, don't worry, Boss Li, I will handle this matter properly."

Kou Zhong said excitedly, now he can enter the palace for a walk.

Li Yizhi shook his head, waved his hands and hurriedly said: "Okay, let's go quickly, don't miss the business."

…………

In the afternoon, Li Yizhi saw Luo Tong, a burly man about 30 years old with a stern face.

"Luo Tong greets the prefect!"

Li Yizhi held his right hand up, and said: "You don't need to be too polite, I'm calling you here this time, you must have guessed in your heart."

Luo Tong's expression was as usual, and he said: "This subordinate dare not try to figure out the eunuch's intentions."

"Since you don't dare to speculate, let me tell you. I have already submitted a memorial to the court to appoint you as the new captain. I believe the court will pass it smoothly."

Li Yizhi said: "Therefore, before the imperial court formally appoints you, you will be acting captain first."

A look of gratitude flashed in Luo Tong's eyes, he bowed and said, "Yes, prefect."

"After you take over, there are a few things that you need to do."

"Prefect, please give orders."

"The first thing is to get rid of Zhang Yunhe's confidantes. If there is no serious evil, it's fine to drive out the county soldiers, but if there is serious evil, you deal with it according to law."

"The second thing is to change all the soldiers in the prefect's mansion and replace them with your new commander."

"The third thing is to rectify the [-] county soldiers and the county soldiers in Jiangdu counties, cut off the old and weak, organize training, and eliminate the bandits and robbers in Jiangdu County."

Li Yizhi paused, looked at Luo Tong, and said, "Especially the third thing, do you have the confidence to complete it?"

Although Jiangdu County is where the Jiangdu Palace is located, the safe place is only around Yangzhou.

In fact, there are many bandits and bandits in every county, and there are even small groups of rebels, causing disasters everywhere.

If Li Yizhi wanted to develop Jiangdu County, the first thing he had to do was to clean up the bandits in the territory.

Without any hesitation, Luo Tong said in a deep voice, "The general will guarantee that the task will be completed."

Li Yizhi nodded and said, "Very well, I hope you don't let me down, go down."

…………

The storm in the prefect's mansion soon spread to the outside world.

All well-informed people know that the newly appointed prefect has completely controlled the prefect's mansion in just one day, and he is a ruthless character.

Jiangdu Palace.

Zhang Shihe's face was full of hatred. As soon as he received the news from the prefect's mansion, he immediately found Yu Wenhuaji, who was on duty, and lodged a complaint.

"My lord, this Li Yizhi is cruel and merciless, and will surely cause a catastrophe in the future, please deal with it as soon as possible."

Finally, Zhang Shihe shouted angrily.

He has no ability to avenge his brother, so he can only rely on Yu Wenhuaji.
