Chapter 11 The new official takes office

Chapter 16 Three Forces

Wang Baxu invited Lu Mingyue to the meeting hall. They were friends more than ten years ago. Later, they went their separate ways. Now they are on the same road. The latest chapter of the Holy Church

"Brother Mingyue, which fragrant wind blows you today?"

"Northwest wind! My brother is going to drink the Northwest wind, so I'm here to find you."

Seeing that Wang Bafeng's face turned a little pale, Lu Mingyue patted his shoulder and smiled: "Don't worry! I'm not here to ask you to borrow food and discuss major issues with you."

Everyone walked into the lobby and sat down. Wang Baxu gave Song Jingang a wink. Song Jingang smiled and said, "I don't know what Brother Lu's big thing refers to?"

Lu Mingyue took out a very thick piece of paper from her arms and spread it on the table, as if something was drawn on it.

"Let's have a look!"

Several people gathered up together, and Wang Baxu immediately exclaimed: "Zhuojun Cang Map!"

The picture shows the distribution map of the major warehouses in Zhuo County. It is Youzhou City to the north, Shuo Palace to the south, and Yongji Canal to the east. There are hundreds of large warehouses along Yongji Canal, including grain warehouses and arsenals. There is also a warehouse group by the Bao River.

To everyone's surprise, Lu Mingyue's map was very detailed, with marked marks in the granaries in various places, and various roads leading to the granaries.

When Song Jingang saw that a warehouse next to it was marked with red and a small path was drawn, he thought to himself, could it be that Lu Mingyue wanted to plan this warehouse?

Lu Mingyue smiled proudly and said, "This is what I have spent half a year on, and it took a lot of manpower."

Wang Baxu already understood what Lu Mingyue was referring to, which coincided with what he thought. However, Wang Baxu was not an ordinary farmer. He had read books and had knowledge. He also knew that those who do great things must have great risks. After pondering for a moment, Wang Baxu asked: "The officers and soldiers have 100,000 troops stationed. Do we have a chance?"

Lu Mingyue narrowed her eyes and said, "One hundred thousand troops is good, but 50,000 of the 100,000 troops are stationed in Linshuo Palace. In fact, there are only 50,000 troops stationed in the warehouse, but there are hundreds of warehouses, and there are also warehouses on Baohe. Can 50,000 officers and soldiers guard it? How about it, are you going to do something big?"

Wang Baxu turned around and looked at Song Jingang. On such a big thing, he would listen to Song Jingang's opinions. Song Jingang nodded slowly. Wang Baxu hit his fists and palms, and a word burst out from his lips: "Fuck!"

"Okay - happy!"

Lu Mingyue gave a thumbs up and praised, "Dare to do great things, it is worthy of being the true nature of a hero. The Holy Hall."

He was very energetic and pointed to a warehouse marked with a red circle. "This warehouse is quite special. It is half armor and half grain, and it is not large in scale. It has a thousand soldiers stationed, and it is far from Youzhou City."

"How many things are there?" Wang Baxu looked at the map and said.

"There are 30,000 sets of armor and 50,000 stones of grain. I only have armor and the grain belongs to you."

"We also want armor!" Song Jingang interjected from the side, his tone unambiguous.

Lu Mingyue stared at him for a while, and finally nodded, "Okay! Half of the family."

















As millions of troops heading to Liaodong, the pressure in Youzhou City suddenly eased, and the whole Youzhou became lighter, and the laughter of children began to be heard on the streets. The girls' dresses became bright, and shops opened one after another, and the guys shouted loudly at the door.

The most obvious thing is that there are more pedestrians on the street, and there are endless people entering and leaving the city. Many families go out for a walk with their families.

In front of a porcelain shop next to the gate of Nancheng, a soldier was buying a pair of white porcelain vases from Xing kilns. The soldier was named Liu Zhengyi, who was a personal soldier of Yang Yuanqing. Yang Yuanqing's personal soldiers were treated very generously, and their military salary was three times that of ordinary soldiers. In addition, Yang Yuanqing also gave each personal soldier land so that they had no worries and were loyal to themselves.

Today, when the personal soldier Liu Zhengyi was on holiday, he came out to buy some gifts for his family. He paid the money and carefully took the wooden box from the shopkeeper, turned around and prepared to return home. At this moment, a carriage ran into the city, and several horse-riding men were guarding next to the carriage.

At this time, the curtain of the car was opened, and a woman wearing a curtain was looking out at the situation in the city. Liu Zhengyi didn't care. In Youzhou City, there were many wealthy families with such a carriage. Perhaps a woman from some wealthy family returned from traveling.

He put the wooden box containing porcelain bottles into the horse bag, turned over the horse, and urged the horse to return to the military camp. But after walking a few steps, he found that the carriage had entered a narrow alley, where there were no wealthy families, and it was usually ordinary civilians. It was obviously a bit out of place for ordinary civilians to own such a carriage. It was precisely because of this that Liu Zhengyi, like many passers-by, looked at the carriage curiously for a few more.

The carriage had already entered the alley, followed by several horse-riding entourages. Suddenly, Liu Zhengyi saw a piece of thing exposed in one of the people's horse bags. Because this thing was too big and could not be stuffed into the horse bags, he could only be exposed outside. Seeing that there was a bow on the outside, at least most people would think so.

But Liu Zhengyi was shocked. He had experienced many battles and was very familiar with the various weapons of the army. He recognized that it was not the bow back, but the bow body of a military crossbow.

The military crossbow is the most forbidden thing among the people, but it appears next to an ordinary knight. Moreover, the swords worn by these horse-riding entourages are not ordinary knives, but the horizontal swords of the Sui army. Liu Zhengyi was stunned for a moment and watched them disappear into the alley.

He urged his horse to step forward and looked outside the alley. He saw the carriage driving into the innermost house. Liu Zhengyi was puzzled. He shook his head, turned his head and returned to the General Administration.

Back at the General Administration, Liu Zhengyi went to the horse house first to hand over the horse to the groom. Then he hurried to the gate with a wooden box, walked to the gate, and met Zhang Sheng, the leader of the guard, walking through the door. Liu Zhengyi immediately stood up and bowed.

"What are you going to buy?" Zhang Sheng asked with a smile.

"Report to the leader, I went to buy a pair of white porcelain vases and prepared to celebrate my grandfather's birthday. I plan to ask someone to return it to my hometown tomorrow."

"It's not bad, I'm quite filial."

Zhang Sheng patted his shoulder and smiled gently, "Go to bed quickly. You are on duty tonight. It's all night. You must not be careless these days, and you must never let the assassin sneak into the mansion again!"

"I understand!"

Liu Zhengyi took a few steps, but it seemed as if he realized it later. Zhang Sheng's words, "You must never let the assassin sneak into the mansion again!" were like a flash of lightning flashed through his mind. He suddenly thought of the military crossbow and turned around and said, "Person Zhang, there is something strange today."

"What strange thing?" Zhang Sheng stopped and asked.

"When I bought a vase today, I saw several horse riding men wearing horizontal swords, especially one of them actually carried a military crossbow, which was surprising."

Although the horizontal sword is a forbidden item, it is actually unstoppable. Local governments turn a blind eye, but military crossbows are different. The court strictly prohibits the civilian crossbows from making crossbows. Those who make crossbows privately are executed. Each official military crossbow is numbered and has extremely strict control. Moreover, craftsmen who can make crossbows in the country live in the capital, and there are very few crossbows in the people. This is also one of the reasons why the Yuan family was the culprit of the assassin at the time. Only Guanlong nobles like the Yuan family can use military crossbows.

Zhang Sheng's face became extremely serious, "Who is it? Is it a soldier?"

"I'm not a soldier. I thought it was a wealthy girl who came back from a trip, but unexpectedly their carriage entered an alley and the door of an ordinary family. The military crossbow was carried by one of the followers."

Due to his negligence in the assassination, Zhang Sheng became careful and he would not let go of any clues. Today his subordinates discovered unusual things, such as horizontal knives, military crossbows, carriages, and alleys, and alleys, which made him immediately feel alert.

He immediately ordered, "Take me there!"

Zhang Sheng led a few personal guards and followed Liu Zhengyi towards the south of the city.

















In the past two days, Yang Yuanqing has been considering how to deal with the two rebel armies in Zhuo County. Both Lu Mingyue and Song Jingang are famous figures in history. If they are not destroyed in time while they are weak, once they are allowed to grow up, it will pose a serious threat to Youzhou.

He had sent several scouts to investigate the situation of these two rebels. What made him a little embarrassed was that Lu Mingyue's nest was in Yanshan in the north, while Wang Baxu's nest was in Wuhui Mountain, both of which were high and dense forests. If he went into the mountains to suppress bandits, although he could destroy them, the price he paid was too high, which made him he hesitant. It would be better to force them down the mountain to force them down the mountain. In the plains, he could annihilate these two treacherous thieves at the lowest cost.

Yang Yuanqing thought that Zhang Xutuo wiped out Wang Bo because the rebels were cut off and he was forced to go down the mountain. Yang Yuanqing walked in the room with his hands behind his back. He needed to know the information about the rioters most now, but how can he get their information?

Just as Yang Yuanqing was pondering for a long time, Zhang Sheng, the leader of the personal guard, appeared at the door, "There is important information to report to the general."

"What's up?"

Zhang Sheng walked into the house and bowed: "The personal guard Liu Zhengyi accidentally discovered an information today."

Zhang Sheng explained in detail the process of Liu Zhengyi's discovery of the military crossbow and said, "So Bei Zhi took a few brothers to the alley to inspect. We dared not disturb each other. We set up several brothers on the second floor of a shop opposite the alley. He led by Liu Zhengyi to monitor the situation in the alley."

Yang Yuanqing also felt suspicious. Are these people the assassins who assassinated him? If so, who would they be?

"General, shouldn't you arrest someone?"

Yang Yuanqing pondered for a moment and said, "Don't alert the snake first. It's best to catch one of them and understand their situation before making a decision."

"I understand, monitor them first."

Zhang Sheng bowed and retreated. At this time, Yang Yuanqing suddenly thought of a way to obtain information from Wang Baxu. He immediately ordered: "Order Su Lie to come to see me!"

After a moment, Su Lie walked in quickly, knelt down on one knee and saluted: "I am in charge of the general manager!"

Yang Yuanqing ordered: "Take three thousand cavalry and immediately rushed to Wangsongzhuang, Yi County, Shanggu County, and arrested all the men, women, young and old in the village and took them back to Youzhou City."

"As for the order!"

Su Lie got up and was about to leave, but Yang Yuanqing stopped him, "Wait a minute!"
