Jin'an Emperor

Chapter 107 God's will

After this era, Lu Qiang can no longer remember how many people he has offended, and there is no need to bother to think about this kind of thing.

Lu Qiang called Ding Si and asked him to forward Xie Wangzu's urgent letter to Dai Qianqiu. Lu Qianqian believed that Dai Qianqiu and they knew what to do.

It's just that if this matter continues to endure like this, won't the world underestimate itself? At present, another order was issued to Tan Daoji, ordering him to lead troops around the border. At the same time, he believed Liu Yi and asked him to thoroughly investigate the matter.

Although there were still 50 miles away, the Shangrao county magistrate still rushed over as soon as he got the news, but when he arrived, it was almost midnight.

Lu Qiang is not in the habit of going to bed early, and the news he received during the day is so sudden that no one dares to say whether there will be a future? But all he can do now is wait for the enemy to make another move, and wait for Qianqiu and Liu Sinu to send him messages as soon as possible.

Hearing that the Shangrao County magistrate came overnight, Lu Qiang was also a little surprised and ordered him to come in.

The name of Shangrao County magistrate is Meng Xu, who is almost 50 years old. It is said that he is still a decent official, but his family is in the middle of the family, so that he is still a county magistrate at this age. If he had a rich family, he would have spent money on a higher official position.

Because the area of Shangrao is close to Yangzhou, it has not been affected by the chaos of the Huan family. However, when Sun En rebelled before, this area was very harmful, and now it has only just started to get well.

Meng Xu didn't know the temperament of this young assassin, but he heard that he was very easy to kill, so he rushed over overnight, afraid that there would be a place to neglect and provoke the adult's murderous heart.

Lu Qiang ordered someone to bring tea to Meng Xu and talked to him peacefully for a while before finally appeasing him. However, when asking about local affairs, Meng County Magistrate's expression became unnatural.

Lu Qiang saw it and couldn't help moving slightly. Could it be that this is also a corrupt official? Or loyal to the Huan family? If that's the case, I don't mind killing a hundred policemen.

At present, he said quietly, "Is there any difficulty for Lord Meng? Say it and listen to it. Maybe this official can help you."

Meng Xu couldn't help sighing and said, "Adults don't know that Shangrao is a three-indifferent zone, that is, it does not belong to Yuzhang, Linchuan or Jian'an, but all three places want to take care of it, so sometimes the subordinates don't know who to listen to."

Is there such a thing?

In fact, Lu Qiang did not know that at this time, the Jin court was in chaos, and even many places were already in a state of anarchy, and some ambitious scholars and rich families would take the opportunity to expand their strength and include those places under their governance.

Lu Qiang's restructuring in Jing and Jiang has just begun, and many counties are still in the hands of the children of the Shimen, so this situation is not an exception as Meng Xu said.

With Lu Qiang's current right, it can solve this problem in just one sentence, but Lu Qiang doesn't think about it.

Shangrao has bordered Yangzhou. Such a place without clear authority is easy to be used by Yangzhou. Of course, if Yangzhou is also under its own rule, it will be another matter.

Lu Qiang pondered for a moment, picked up an official's evaluation book from several cases, smiled at Meng Xu, and said, "I know that you are an upright official and can treat the people well, so I plan to appoint you as the county guard of Shangrao County. I don't know if Lord Meng is willing?"

"shang... Shangrao County Guard?"

Meng Xu almost thought he had heard it wrong. He had thought that he had come to complain in the middle of the night, so he was accidentally promoted, but then he thought that Shangra was not big. I'm afraid it was a little difficult to expand it into a county. The counties on the side are either under the jurisdiction of Yuzhang County or within the direct jurisdiction of Linchuan and Jian'an, and those county guards are very deep. Do you think it's a big life if they want to take food from their mouths?

Lu Qiang seemed to see through Meng Xu's thoughts, clapped his hands, and then saw He Guangsheng pick up the curtain and come in.

"Adult"

Lu Qiang pointed to Meng Xu and said to He Guangsheng, "This is the new Shangrao County Guard. I now appoint you as the Sima of Shangrao County. I will order General Tan Daoji to transfer 500 soldiers to you. The rest will be recruited by yourself and form a team of 3,000 people as soon as possible. Do you understand what I mean?"

He Guangsheng was stunned and then turned over and knelt down: "But what did the villain do wrong? Does the adult want to drive the young one away?"

He Guangsheng, Wang Kai and a group of his own soldiers were the first to follow Lu Qiang. They have always been loyal. Lu Qiang can't treat them badly. At the same time, these people can be stationed in various places for him to truly control these places.

He Guangsheng was helped up with his own hands, patted him on the shoulder heavily, and laughed, "What are you thinking about? Practice well in the local area. After two years of waiting for you to become a general, I will transfer you back."

Then his face turned whole and said, "Shangrao is close to Yangzhou, and Yangzhou is the territory of Erliu. I leave you here, but it's not just as simple as conscripting troops. Do you understand?"

In fact, He Guangsheng also knew that Lu Qiang was giving him a future, but he was used to staying with Lu Qiang, so he would leave?

He turned over and knelt down again, and his voice was slightly choked: "General..."

General is Lu Qiang's earliest official position. No one has called him for a long time. He can't help reminding Lu Qiang of the most difficult days, and he is also sad.

He Guangsheng was pulled up and pretended to be angry, "What does a big man, mother-in-law, look like?" All right, let's clean it up. Let's go to Shangrao tomorrow morning."

Seeing that this was the point, He Guangsheng stopped saying anything. After bowing again, he was ready to withdraw. At this time, there was a sudden sound of rapid footsteps outside the account.

He Guangsheng rushed out and was about to ask questions, but he heard the bodyguard outside: "Your Excellency, I have caught several traitors who claimed to be hunters"

Why do you tell me everything?

Lu Qiang was trying to order someone to escort him first and hand it over to Sima Xiuzhi tomorrow. He suddenly understood that the guards must have thought that the hunters were coming for their own panther, so they came to report to themselves.

The black panther is very spiritual. No matter where it goes, it can always find it. Maybe the nearby hunters are happy to hunt it and want to kill it.

Dare to move the panther, which was similar to Lu Qiang's life, and Lu Qiang's eyes immediately stood up.

At this moment, Meng Xu suddenly said, "Your Excellency, can you let the subordinates go and have a look? Adults don't know. Recently, a wild horse came from the mountain. It often came to nearby farmers to make trouble and injured many people. The people couldn't bear to shoot because they saw this horse Shenjun. However, many rich families offered high prices to capture it alive, so many hunters came from all directions.

What a horse?

This term has been heard too much in later generations, but Lu Qiang knows what it means in this era. Mountains and rivers have not been harvested endlessly. Dense forests can be seen everywhere, and those unknown animals flashed from time to time.

So just like a panther, any animal can appear.

Just as he was about to agree to Meng Xu's request, he heard a long hiss in the distance. The sound resounded through the night sky, clear and far away, but he could hear the hiss of the horses.

From this time, even Lu Qiang became interested. What kind of horse is this? Can it have such a call? What he didn't expect was that with the hiss, all the horses in the barracks began to move uneasily.

When Lu Qiang walked out of the big account, he happened to hear the restless sound of the camp's civil war horse. He frowned and said, "What sound? What's wrong with the war horse?

Before the guards could answer, Meng Xu said first, "Your Excellency, this must be the horse to make trouble again."

Lu Qiang is very rational. Although he really wants a good horse, he will not lose the whole camp because of a horse. He frowned slightly and said, "Take my bow"

As soon as the words fell, the soldier in front of him was slightly restless. Lu Qiang stared at it, but saw the black panther staggering out of the shadow. He didn't know that it came out from there. He walked to Lu Qiang, rubbed his head against Lu Qiang's leg, and squatted beside Lu Qiang.

Lu Qiang can't help but be a little strange. This guy usually doesn't appear. What's going on today? However, it has to appear when it is about to shoot and disrupt the wild horse. What does it want to tell itself?

But the only thing that the wild horse is messing up is here. Is it coming for it?

Thinking of this, Lu Qiang couldn't help narrowing his eyes. Seeing the torch outside the tent, more than a dozen people were knocked to the ground by the guards and knew that they were the hunters the guards said.

He Guangsheng turned his head and said, "Let them go and let them take me to see what's going on?"

"Your Excellency, you can't take risks easily"

Zhou Kui rushed over from the side and heard that Lu Qiang was going to leave the camp, so he hurriedly dissuaded him.

After this disturbance, Sima Xiuzhi and others were also awakened and came to the door of the Chinese army to know what had happened.

Lu Qiang asked the hunters to go ahead and followed with the overlord's bow. Except for Sun Yao and Fan Wu, everyone else followed far behind, and the group groped away in the darkness.

In fact, the darkness at this time is not completely out of sight. The moon is round, the stars are shining, and the torches flash on the ground from time to time make people feel that this is a romantic night, and they can't feel nervous at all.

Lu Qiang found a hillside, asked his predecessors to put out the torch, and then stood quietly in the dark waiting for the upcoming wild horse.

In fact, he doesn't know whether the hunters will appear here. It's just a feeling, just like a black panther will suddenly come. He believes that this guy will never appear for no reason.

In fact, Lu Qiang did not know that the red rabbit horse given to him was hijacked by the navy in Xiangcheng County. As soon as he got off the boat, he broke free from the shackles and ran away.

I don't know if there is really God's will in this dark? The red rabbit Shenma ran all the way to the south. After crossing several counties, it actually ran to the mountains near Shangrao. At this time, Lu Qiang's southern patrol team also stationed near Shangrao.
