I gather power with my gift of God and build the heaven

Weiyuan County County Government Office, Magistrate Li Wenwen is enjoying tea leisurely.

"Da da da"

There was a rush of footsteps outside, and the figure of a government servant came closer, bowed and whispered:

"Sir, Master Wu wants to see you!"

"Huh~? Why is he here?"

Li Wenwen drank tea for a moment, and then said unhurriedly:

"Well~, bring him in!"

"yes!"

The visitor responded and then left quickly.

After a while, there was another sound of footsteps.

"Da da da"

Immediately afterwards, Wu Duoyun, who looked sad, quickly walked in.

"Plop!"

When he was more than one meter away from Li Wenwen, Wu Duoyun fell to his knees and said in a choked voice:

"Sir, please make the decision for your subordinates."

"Eh~? What does Mr. Wu mean by this? Please get up quickly, please get up quickly!"

More than that? Why is this so? "

After seeing Wu Duoyun like this, the county magistrate Li Wenwen couldn't help being startled. He stood up suddenly, walked quickly to Wu Duoyun, and helped him up.

Although he, as the county magistrate, was the highest official in Weiyuan County, Wu Duoyun was only the chief clerk.

However, as a local leader, some respect should still be given.

Otherwise, he may not be able to do things well, but if he wants to do something bad, he will definitely do it.

"Sir, my subordinates, subordinates, my family of fifty or sixty people were all killed by thieves.

Three thousand stones of grain and ten thousand taels of silver were all stolen by thieves."

Upon hearing the inquiry from the county magistrate Li Wenshu, Wu Duoyun couldn't help crying with runny nose and tears.

This is to let Wang Chao and the others know that they have to slap him in the face, which is really shameful.

Even if his pigs and dogs are included, there are only fifty or sixty people.

In fact, even if the Wu family's guards were included, they had killed about twenty people this time.

But when it comes to Wu Duoyun's mouth, this is more than doubled.

Moreover, there was food. Counting the distribution, it was only about 1,500 taels. As for gold and silver, the total amount was only more than 1,000 taels but less than 2,000 taels. This amount increased by more than five times.

On the other side, when Li Wenwen, the county magistrate, heard about three thousand stones of grain and ten thousand taels of silver, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he placed the teacup in his hand heavily on the crime scene.

"Snapped!"

"The thief is so bold! How dare he commit such a tragic act of extermination and robbery under my rule?"

"Master Wu, please hurry up. I will definitely find out and bring the thief to justice as soon as possible, and he will be punished."

Li Wenwen looked angry and kept thinking about how much gold and silver he could get if he wiped out this gang of gangsters.

And since Mr. Wu’s family has been wiped out, the only one left is alone. He doesn’t have the ability to compete with him for property, right?

However, you still need to ask when you need to.

"Well, Chief Wu, do you know the origin of that thief?"

"Sir, that's a group of hungry untouchables from our place. The leader of the thieves is called Dynasty. There are about two hundred people.

I have pity on my old father and mother. In the past, they did good deeds and often helped their neighbors.

Unexpectedly, those untouchables were so ungrateful that they killed more than a dozen or dozens of members of their family and robbed their property that had been accumulated for generations.

Sir, you must make decisions for your subordinates."

"More than two hundred people"

Li Wenwen frowned a little.

As for what Wu Duoyun said later, Li Wenshu didn't listen at all.

As for doing good deeds and helping neighbors, just listen to them.

If you really want to do good deeds and help your neighbors, you won't have thousands of stones of food at home, and the people under your rule will starve to the point of hunger and turn into rioters and plunder.

What he cares about is the number of thieves and how much property they have left.

However, he didn't take it too seriously. There were only a few hungry and anxious victims around him. Once the imperial officers and soldiers arrived, wouldn't they just run away?

After thinking about it for a while, Li Wenwen frowned and ordered:

"Go and call the county magistrate Wuchang and the commander Wu Ping."

In the Ming Dynasty, under normal circumstances, the suppression of bandits did not involve the dispatch of regular troops, let alone arrests of leaders and fast officers.

The head catcher and the fast catcher belong to the inspection department and are mainly responsible for catching thieves.

In fact, in most inland cities, Minzhuang recruited are the main personnel responsible for city defense and extermination of rebels.

In the first year of Tianshun, the recruitment of Minzhuang was formally included in the regulations for the first time.

Order to recruit strong people, saddle horses and equipment, and join the army to give them

From then on, the recruitment of civilians became more formalized and more stringent.

I train when I’m free and farm when I’m busy.

The training basically follows two exercises in spring, summer and autumn, three exercises in winter and three rest periods. It is important to not violate the farming season, and there are paper armors and waist knives.

Mainly as an auxiliary to the regular army, participating in the defense of the city, exterminating rebels, maintaining law and order, repairing the city, etc.

It can be seen that Minzhuang, who was initially recruited, is still very powerful.

It's a pity that as time goes by, this part will gradually become ineffective. Not to mention doing three days and resting three days, you may not be able to train twice throughout the year.

As for weapons, if you can have a rusty knife, it is already the work of the chief officer.

After all, even most of the regular army is lax in training and is almost useless, let alone the Minzhuang who are auxiliary to the army.

The number of people recruited is basically a thousand people in large counties, six to seven hundred people in small counties, and five hundred people in small counties.

As for Weiyuan County, although it is not a big county, it is not a small county either.

Normally, there should be nearly 600 people.

It's a pity that if the number of people they are recruiting now reaches two hundred, it would be a stroke of luck.

The fact is that there are only one hundred, fifty or sixty people in Weiyuan County, and they have not received much formal training.

Rather than saying that they are soldiers, it is better to say that they are ordinary farmers.

Therefore, when they heard that there was going to be a crackdown on bandits and that there were more than two hundred bandits, the people in Wuping became numb and their faces turned blue and white.

As the younger brother of the county magistrate Wuchang, Wu Ping relied on his connections in Wuchang to become the commander of Minzhuang, and he was quite impressive in the past.

However, let him lead the so-called strong people to suppress the bandits.

Damn it, is this going to cost you your life?

Even if it is just composed of some untouchables.

However, his men weren't much better.

Otherwise, if the bandits fail to suppress them, they will have their heads cut off by the bandits.

Seeing the change in Wu Ping's expression, Li Wenshu was already convinced.

However, his face was calm and he only spoke with a smile on his face.

"I believe that Commander Wu Ping will be able to win a decisive victory, defeat the rebels in one fell swoop, and capture and kill the leader of the dynasty."

"Aha, yes, yes yes!"

Wu Ping smiled a little reluctantly.

Although most of Minzhuang's situation is well understood, he can't always speak frankly here, so he can only muddle through with vague words.

"Hahaha, that's good, that's good. I'm here, waiting for the good news about Commander Wu Ping's victory."

After leaving the county government, Wu Ping couldn't help but look depressed.

"Brother, big brother, what should we do now?"

".Then continue to recruit Minzhuang."

Wuchang glanced at him sideways and said disapprovingly.

"But, but."

To gather these strong people together, they also need food and salary.

The most important thing is, what role can these temporarily summoned ministries play?

"Then let them prepare some dry food by themselves and get the rest from the county government."

"Is this, is this really okay?"

When Wu Ping heard that he was preparing his own dry food, his eyes lit up.

"Why not? There are just some random people on the left and right. When the officers and soldiers arrive, how much desire will they have to fight?

You can just gather those strong people and tidy them up a bit to make them look like that.

Do those rioters really dare to fight with the officers and soldiers? "

"Yes, yes, I listen to big brother."

In the next few days, Wu Ping began to gather people and conduct some queue training.

After more than ten days, it seems to be the same.

But at this time, a major event occurred that shocked the entire Shaanxi and was recorded in history, causing their bandit suppression operations to be suspended.

Whitewater Rebellion.

Shortly after Wang Dynasty and the others arrived at Niaoshu Mountain, on July 15th, Wang Er and others gathered a group of people, stormed into the county at night, killed the county magistrate Zhang Douyao, and opened a warehouse to release grain.

After more than ten days, the news finally spread throughout Shaanxi, and Li Wenwen was so shocked that his heart trembled.

Fortunately, this dynasty did not attack the county like Wang Er.

if not

Thinking of this, Li Wenwen couldn't help but feel a chill on his neck, and was secretly grateful.

Similarly, Wu Ping was also shocked. It seemed that these rioters were not so easy to deal with.

This made him repeatedly delay the time to go into the mountains to suppress the bandits, striving for longer training, and it would be better to gather more people.

In Niaoshu Mountain, when Wang Chao heard the news, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

The mighty peasant uprising in the late Ming Dynasty was finally about to begin.

However, Wang Er, who took the lead in the uprising, did not seem to last long.

An uprising would have touched the bottom line of the imperial court, and naturally it would be vigorously suppressed.

This is why the Dynasty never thought of attacking the county before.

They are just bandits at best and cannot attract much attention from the officials, leaving more time and space for them to develop.

When the mind enters the space of consciousness, a spiritual power ripples above it, like an ocean of spiritual power.

On the other side, except for a few remnant souls belonging to their side, the other remnant souls have been wiped out by the dynasty and turned into pure spiritual power. The divine power and cunning energy below have also grown several times.

As soon as the thought occurred, the ocean of spiritual power above began to droop down wisps of spiritual power, gradually integrating into the soul of the dynasty.

In an instant, Wang Dynasty felt a coolness in his soul, and began to grow slowly. After growing three inches in height, he felt that his soul was not as condensed as before.

The dynasty stopped absorbing spiritual power and began to condense its soul.

After his soul shrunk by an inch, Wang Chao felt that his soul had regained its previous condensation.

Wang Chao moved his gaze downwards and looked at the consciousness tag that was rising and falling in the center of the divine power and cunning energy.

Again, I ask all you guys who have votes to vote for recommendations, and those who don’t have votes to read more.

Thank you, little author! ∩_∩
