Chapter 266 Under the Big Tree
Time goes back to when Qin Sheng led his army to capture Black Wind Village
Shi Tianyi is a veteran of the Houcheng military camp. He joined the camp when he was just sixteen years old. Now he is eighteen, which makes him a veteran in the Houcheng military camp. He has also become a deputy captain, helping the team leader to manage a dozen soldiers.
A while ago, when people were in panic and thought that the Xianbei were going to attack, the county lieutenant, Lord Le, arranged for the Qin brothers to enter the military camp. At that time, he was thinking about the retreat and didn't pay attention.
Then, they were promoted to deputy captains, and the people in their Houcheng military camp discovered that they were quite capable in fighting, leading troops and training soldiers.
Not long after, Zhou Dama Jin and others were arranged into the Houcheng military camp, and were immediately promoted to team leaders. Several brothers of the Qin family were also arranged to assist them.
He had met Ma Jin and felt that he was a good match for him, so he often went to play with him. Then he realized something was wrong. On the surface, the Qin brothers were helping captains Zhou Da and Ma Jin manage the soldiers, but upon closer inspection, it was Zhou Da, Ma Jin and the others who were obeying their deputy captains' orders.
Later, he quietly asked Ma Jin, and Ma Jin treated him as his own and told him the truth without hiding anything from him.
It was then that he learned the identities of the Qin brothers.
This time he and his team members came to suppress the bandits as arranged by the higher-ups. Shi Tianyi also tried his best to persuade his captain to cooperate well. He wanted to see the abilities of the Qin family masters.
Leading them this time were Qin Zhao, the third master of the Qin family, and Qin Sheng, the sixth master.
These two masters were indeed quite capable. He had thought it would take at least three to five days to wipe out Black Wind Village. However, they only took a few hours to conquer it. Instead, it took quite a bit of time to capture the escaped fish and count the spoils.
Shi Tianyi discovered that Zhou Da and others worked very hard and were not the type of people who would just work without putting in any effort.
Shi Tianyi pulled Ma Jin, who was sweating profusely, and asked his doubts, "...I feel like you guys are so excited, why?"
Ma Jin replied while working, "Hurry up and finish the work so that we can prepare to conquer the next stronghold."
Shi Tianyi: "No, just because one bandit suppression operation was successful doesn't mean it will be successful every time. You guys are so active, are you okay?" God knows, he was very nervous when he followed this time.
"That was before. It's definitely different now. Let me tell you, Shi Tianyi, when we follow Sixth Master to fight bandits, it's different from how you usually fight bandits." Ma Jin said with a hint of mystery.
When the Sixth Master goes to war, the bandits and robbers will be wiped out. Even if things don't go well from time to time, it's just a process, and the ending will definitely be smooth!
What's the difference? Shi Tianyi wanted to ask, but the job was over. Ma Jin pulled him to work without saying a word.
Later, when Shi Tianyi joined them, he realized that the way people led troops to fight was indeed different.
After working for a while, Shi Tianyi raised another question: "Everyone is so well behaved." He couldn't help but ask.
Ma Jin looked at him with something wrong in his eyes. The Third and Sixth Masters led them to fight the bandits and would divide the spoils later, but they still hid the property secretly. Are they still human?
Shi Tianyi said angrily, "What are you looking at?" Despising him?
They had no choice but to do it that way. If they didn't steal a little, their work would be in vain. They worked hard but got nothing, which made them very annoyed.
After Ma Jin knew the reason, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, the situation you are worried about will never happen in the future." They believed that the Sixth Madam would not treat them unfairly.
Here, the soldiers were busy under Qin Zhao's command.
Qin Sheng personally led his men around the Black Wind Village and dug out some hidden gold, silver and jewelry, and then stopped working.
Although he had looted the village chief's hidden property, Qin Sheng was still not satisfied after a rough calculation.
This is a skinny chicken, probably the skinniest among the eighteen pheasants.
Qin Sheng felt depressed. It was not easy to take credit for this small amount of money with his wife.
If the deceased leader of the Black Wind Village heard Qin Sheng's evaluation, he would definitely be so angry that he would crawl out of the mass grave to protest. Houcheng is a poor county and has been looted by the Xianbei for years. How prosperous do you think the Black Wind Village located here can be?
At this time, Zhou Da came over and asked with a smile, "Sixth Master, let's go back and rest for a while. Are we ready for the next game?" This time the harvest was not small.
"Rest first."
"Sixth Master, we are not tired and don't need to rest." Let him see where they will fight next?
Qin Sheng glanced at him and said, "Don't dream. Those bandits are not in the territory of Houcheng. We can't move for the time being."
What? No next game? How could this be possible? Zhou Da almost jumped up when he heard this. "Why?"
"We've crossed the line. We are now soldiers of Houcheng and can only take care of Houcheng's affairs." He is also very annoyed, okay?
Zhou Da couldn't believe it. They had only done one job! At the moment, the brothers were in high spirits, rubbing their hands and preparing to sharpen their knives to attack the pigs and sheep, but suddenly they were told by Sixth Master that these pigs and sheep did not belong to them and could not be touched for the time being.
Don't overstep the boundaries.
This is such a bolt from the blue! When did bandits and robbers become so popular?
It didn't take long for the news to spread among the brothers, and everyone felt as if their enthusiasm had been dampened.
Later, when they took the people and property of Black Wind Village back to Houcheng County Government Office, they heard the good news that Lord Lu was promoted to the governor of Liaodong County.
Zhou Da asked expectantly, "Sixth Master, can we continue to suppress the bandits now?"
Now, the entire Liaodong County is under the jurisdiction of Lord Lu. Is there any place they can't go? No, right?
"It works." Qin Sheng was also happy. Sure enough, what his wife said was right.
"That's great!" Zhou Dama Jin and others could hardly hold back their cheers.
Lord Lu is still amazing.
Look, this is what it means to take shelter under a big tree.
The person above is one of us, so what's so difficult to do? This feeling is so fascinating! Zhou Da thought refreshedly.
"Everyone, finish your work tonight and go back to have a good rest. Tomorrow we'll discuss which stronghold to attack." Qin Sheng's eyebrows suddenly danced with joy. Here he came! He was going to squeeze as much money as possible for his wife.
On this side, Lu Desheng held a banquet at his home to entertain the previous members of the negotiation team.
Because of their contributions in the negotiations, in addition to Lü Desheng being appointed as the governor of Liaodong County by Zhai Ba, the governor Shi Tao and other members of the negotiation team such as Chen Ping, Liu Heshan, Guo Chunsheng, Li Dan, Le Guishan, Xue Xu and others were all rewarded.
However, in this negotiation, Lu Desheng took the greatest credit, and the governor took the second greatest credit. The rest was what they could share in the profits.
But even so, Chen Ping and Liu Heshan were satisfied. After all, they didn't contribute much, and the negotiations went so smoothly, so smoothly that it was unbelievable.
At this time, Chen Ping, Liu Heshan and others all had one idea, which was to follow Lord Lu and have meat to eat.
To Le Guicai, this was unbelievable. Before, Lü Desheng was a small county magistrate. He was the second-in-command of Liaocheng, second only to the county governor. Now, Zheng Xun had been transferred, and Lü Desheng had become his direct superior.
After Le Guicai, Chen Ping, Liu Heshan, Li Dan, Guo Chunsheng, Xue Xu, Xu Zheng and others took their seats, they looked at each other and saw the members invited by Lord Lu, and they had a rough idea in their minds.
At the banquet, Lu Desheng still spoke to them in a very friendly manner.
Lu Desheng raised his glass and said, "Come, let's drink this glass to the brim. The main reason I'm hosting you this banquet is that the smooth progress of this negotiation is the result of everyone's concerted efforts."
"Later, I will invite the county magistrates of the other fifteen counties to meet with each other, and then work together to manage and govern our Liaodong County well."
After saying that, Lu Desheng drank the wine in his glass first.
No one present is a fool. Lord Lu invited them first and then the others. This shows that he treats them as his confidants.
As long as they finish this cup, they will be the ones stirring the pot from now on.
Le Guishan, Chen Ping and Liu Heshan looked at each other for a moment, then drank the wine in one gulp.
