Hua County Office.

Liang Chun, who had just recovered from a serious illness, was sitting in the center, looking down at the civil servants and military generals in the hall.

The civil officials sat on the left, and lined up in the back according to the size of the official position; the military generals were on the right, and the same order was also placed.

Ning Ze's arsenal order is sitting in the last position on the left, farthest from Liang Chun, and quite close to the gate.

The other officials around him sat upright, focusing on the prefect Liang Chun, and did not dare to distract him at all.

"Chief Register, how is the recruitment progress?" After all the officials sat down, Liang Chun looked to the left and asked.

"Report to the lord, a total of 3,779 young soldiers have been recruited!" Liang Jun, who was sitting in the first row on the left, quickly stood up and answered respectfully.

Calling the lord is the most loyal confidant, calling the Duke is the honorary title of the prefect, and calling the prefect is what ordinary people call it.

This place is basically a member of the Liang family, and Liang Chun is a leader, both public and private.

"3779 people?" Liang Chun's expression was not very satisfied. "It's too slow! I'll get tens of thousands of people in one month. Can it be achieved?"

"Report to the lord, it is the busy farming period, and it is a little difficult!" Liang Jun replied.

"No matter how difficult it is, you have to be fully charged, otherwise how can you guard the county city?" Liang Chun frowned, "A notice is posted that those who escape military service will be punished by the same family!"

"This..." Liang Jun turned around and looked around. The other civil officials were also embarrassed. They all knew Liang Chun's personality, so they had some doubts but did not raise them in person.

"I know this is not good, but now the thief is in full force, how can we deal with the lack of troops? This is the situation, so we have to do it!" Liang Chun sighed, "At the same time, we should try our best to appease the people."

"Yes..." Liang Jun bowed and took the order.

"Main Lord!" Liang Jun just sat down, Ning Ze in the corner stood up, "I have something to say."

The civil officials and generals on both sides turned to look at him, thinking that you would like to participate in the political discussion, just sit there honestly, why join in the fun?

When Liang Chun saw him get up, a look of displeasure appeared on his face.

When I saw him, I remembered the incident of the bandits in Pang Lishan. I was so embarrassed that I was displeased.

If possible, he didn't want Ning Ze to appear in the official office to participate in the political discussion. It was just that it was better to be face-saving, so he tried to be as calm as possible: "The arsenal order came forward to speak!"

"Xie Fuzun!" He spoke at the back, and could not hear clearly without yelling, so he called in front. Ning Ze left the seat and walked to the steps to bow and bowed, "I think recruitment is not a necessary move. At present, we should be polite to the people, with the busy spring farming as the leader, and at the same time repairing the city walls and restoring people's livelihood."

Liang Chun was even more unhappy. He really thought he was very important when he asked you to participate in the political discussion, right? He insisted on singing opposite me. He said in a deep voice: "Now Huajun lacks troops, how can he defend if there are thieves invasion?"

"Main Lord, as far as I know, Liang Yiyi Ant Thief does not attach so much importance to the Jinzhou area, after all, it is relatively remote. It is just that the bandits in various places in Jinzhou responded, and the momentum was not too great. Each county and city can suppress the bandits themselves." Ning Ze replied respectfully, "The biggest threat to Hua County is Liu Bao and Pang Lishan bandits. The two harms have been eliminated, and Hua County is as solid as a god. However, the wars have caused troubles, and the people are afraid that the people's hearts will be unstable, and it will be even worse for the forced recruitment of soldiers. At this moment, we should focus on appeaseing the people's hearts. When people's livelihood is restored, the people will naturally join the army..."

"Are you reminding me that my credit has not been rewarded before?" Liang Chun was very unhappy. "I will reward you for your credit, and I will punish you for your fault. I am not a person who has unknown rewards and punishments. You are still inexperienced and lack experience. First do your job well, and then talk about other things! Don't talk about official positions first, and then make contributions in the future and slowly promote your contributions. In this way, you will be rewarded with 50 gold, 100 pieces of cloth, 50 pieces of silk, and do more work and talk less in the future. Go back and sit down!"

In fact, Ning Ze knew that Liang Chun couldn't listen, mainly to show his presence. Facing the eyes of the civil and military officials on both sides, he told him to return to his seat quickly. He responded with a smile and retreated: "Xie Mansion to admire!"

When Ning Ze retreated to his seat, Liang Chun did not go to see him and turned to the other side: "The Cavalry Commander Liu Bao failed to suppress the thieves and rushed to the court to collect the crime. I have written to the court to supervise Liang Teng's civil and military talents. When his official was sick, he managed Hua County and made an indelible contribution to the extermination of the Pang Lishan bandits. He recommended him as the new Cavalry Commander, just waiting for the court to approve it. From now on, all the military affairs of Hua County will be handed over to Liang!"

"The emperor accepts the order!" Liang Teng stood up respectfully and saluted.

It's so shameless! Isn't it you who escaped by the bandits of Pang Lishan before? Isn't it yourself? I'll give all the responsibility for defeating the bandits to Liu Bao and send troops to escort him to Beijing to collect the crime. It's really true! Ning Ze closed his eyes in the corner and rested, secretly complaining in his heart.

Liang Chun asked about several important policy promotion processes, and then asked civil and military officials to offer suggestions on the current situation in Hua County.

At this moment, Ning Ze stopped talking, but just watched other civil and military officials express their opinions.

The Political Consultative Conference is in full swing, and Ningze is drowsy in the corner and only dozing off.

At this time, someone suddenly shouted outside: "Report——! The envoy of Tong County asked for a visit!"

"Cross!" Liang Chun quickly ordered.

The civil and military officials whispered, thinking that why did Tong County send envoys here? What's the situation? The two counties and cities are not adjacent and rarely come and go...

Soon, a soldier hurried into the hall and arrived in front of Liang Chun with silk books in his hands: "Prefect Liang! The lord ordered me to send me an urgent letter, please check it out!"

"I have nothing to do with Prefect Li, so why?" Liang Chun asked.

"You will know after reading the lord's handwritten book!"

“Support it!”

"Here!"

The guards went down the steps, took the silk book from the envoy's hand, and presented it to Liang Chun.

After opening the silk book and reading it carefully, Liang Chun's face changed and he slapped the table: "Damn it!"

"Why are the lord angry?" Liang Jun asked in confusion.

"Prince Li wrote that when the prison car passed through the General Ridge of Tongjun County, it was intercepted by the bandits. Our troops were wiped out, and the criminal generals Liu Bao and the bandit leaders of Pang Lishan were all kidnapped!"

"Ah?!" The civil and military officials were stunned and could not believe it at all.

"Where did the thief come from? He is so bold?" Liang Teng asked the envoy angrily.

"Cao Bolin (yang), General Ling, has always been a great trouble for the lord." The envoy replied respectfully, "There were only 3,000 bandit soldiers before, but it was not in a state of chaos. Now he surrendered to Liang Yi's ant thief and was granted the title of General Zhenbei of Liang Yi Tianguo. Recently, he recruited troops and gathered 100,000 people, which caused a disaster to the side. The bandit army is powerful and the lord lacks military strength. I specially ordered me to come and inform you and invite Liang Prefect to send troops to suppress the bandits together!"

"A hundred thousand people?" Liang Chun's face changed, "Hua County just wiped out the bandits of Pang Lishan, and the losses were serious. Now it is insufficient. Even if the troops are sent together, it is afraid it will be difficult to fight the bandits."

"Don't worry, prefect!" The envoy replied, "The lord asked for help from major prefectures and counties in Jinzhou at the same time to discuss the suppression of the thieves. If Cao Bo's life is too big, he will be connected with the Liang Yiyi Ant Thief, and Jinzhou will be in danger!"

Hearing this, Liang Chun closed his eyes and thought for a moment and stood up: "Indeed! If the thief army is allowed to rage, Hua County cannot protect itself. What's more, the criminal general Liu Bao and the bandit leader Pang Lishan escaped, so you should not be underestimated! But there are still some small problems within Hua County, and we need to discuss it. Come and take the envoy down to rest."

"Since that's the case, wait for the small ones, please reply as soon as possible!" The messenger was taken down to rest.

When he left, Liang Chun looked around the civil and military officials at the scene: "Cao Boxi caused chaos to rob Liu Bao, Pang Lishan bandits, and a 100,000 bandit troops occupied General Ridge. Li Tong, the prefect of Tong County, invited me to discuss the suppression of the bandits. What do you think?"

"Master!" Liang Teng immediately stood up, "We escorted Liu Bao and the bandit leader of Pang Lishan to the capital. The robbery was robbed halfway through. The matter was serious! First, the court learned that it would be blamed, and second, it would be a big deal to spread it to damage the reputation of our Liang family. What's more, Cao Bo's killing our officers and soldiers is really hateful! In my opinion, we should agree to the invitation of Prefect Li to send troops to Tong County to suppress the bandits together!"

"The supervisor's words are reasonable!" Liang Hong stood up and bowed, "The subordinate official agreed."

"We will discuss it!" Liang Kai, Liang Jing, Liang Yun, and Liang Shun naturally agreed with their father's opinion. As soon as the young masters spoke, other generals also stood up to support them.

The civil officials also agreed to send troops to suppress the thieves.

In contrast, Ning Ze was the only one in the corner who did not stand up to discuss it.

Liang Chun didn't care about Ning Ze, but Liang Teng glanced at him, so he turned around curiously: "Armorial Order, what do you think?"

Seeing his son asking Ning Ze, Liang Chun was unhappy and said to himself that he didn't say anything, what do you care about him? I wish this kid would shut up, but you still asked a question?

Ning Ze was also speechless, looking up and facing Liang Teng's eyes, thinking that your father doesn't want to listen to me, so you can just decide for yourself at this time?

But after being asked, the civil and military officials around him looked over together, pretending to be deaf and dumb, just not giving Liang Teng a face, so he had no choice but to get up and walk forward: "In my opinion, we should not send troops!"

You are determined to do the right thing with me? You have to go against any opinion! Liang Chun actually agreed to send troops in his heart. Although Tong County is quite far away from here, Liu Bao and Pang Lishan's bandit leader were robbed. As his son Liang Teng said, he must not ignore it. Other civil and military officials supported it, but this kid sang the opposite tune again.

Liang Teng was also a little surprised when he heard this, looking at Ning Ze in confusion: "Why does the Armored Order not agree with sending troops to suppress the thieves?"

"Although we can't get over the face, Huajun's troops are insufficient, and now there are difficulties in recruiting troops!" Ning Ze replied, "If we want to send troops to suppress the bandits, military strength and training are problems. Secondly, once we send troops, the city's defense is weak, so we must observe it! In my opinion, it is better to send envoys to pass on the message. The prefects jointly wrote a letter to ask the Governor of Jinzhou to send troops to suppress the bandits."

"The Armory Order," Liang Hong said, "The incompetent governor of Jinzhou, no one in the seven counties conquered him. Furthermore, a supervised governor is better than a person who controls real power."

Ning Ze looked at the other person with a smile.

In fact, Liang Hong just told him in person that we are all ambitious and ready to compete for the world. How could this undermined governor be able to plug in a mobile phone? The prefects of the seven counties of Jinzhou don’t take him seriously. Finally, you want him to suppress the thieves. If they take the opportunity to collect the troops of the seven counties, wouldn’t they be tied up in their own cocoon?

"Arsenal Order," Liang Chun thought for a moment and said, "What you want to do is to ensure that the army has sufficient equipment and there is no need to talk too much about other things! In this way, you will be given half a month to deliver 5,000 bamboo crossbows, 5,000 spears, and 10,000 shields as soon as possible. Is there any problem?"
