Chapter 906: Self-shaped curly snake

  Chapter 906 Self-character Scroll Local Snake

  Wu Yaoqing's face moved slightly.

   "You mean the frontier army?"

Theoretically, Kaiping Zhongtunwei and Xingzhou Youtunwei belong to the frontier army, but the frontier army referred to in Wu Yaoqing's words certainly does not refer to these garrison guards who mainly focus on reclamation and production, but refer to those who are really responsible for defending against the enemy. Jizhen army.

For example, the mobile troops directly under the command of the Jizhen Commander-in-Chief stationed in the Santun Camp, or the battalions stationed in various routes, such as the Songpeng Camp, Jianchang Camp, Yanhe Camp, Taitou Camp, and Shimen Zhai Camp. army.

   These are actual combat soldiers. Once the Chahar people invade, they will be directly pulled up to fight.

"Yes, this kind of ranger who can participate in the raid can only come from these battalions, and there are also in the guard army, but the number is not large, it is too obvious, and it is not easy to gather together, but the battalion randomly pulls After dozens of rides, it is not eye-catching." The voice of the visitor was very low, as if he sensed that Wu Yaoqing's face was not very good, "My lord, I have not been back for a long time. I stayed in the capital for a few years before. So some The relationship between acquaintances can only be picked up slowly, give me a little more time."

   "Which battalion can't be determined?" Wu Yaoqing pondered.

   "Jianchang Camp is the most likely. Of course, Santun Camp is also a possibility. There are the most troops stationed there, and training is frequently dispatched. There are many opportunities to find an excuse to escape."

  Wu Yaoqing nodded. The other party's performance was pretty good. In less than a year, he had basically figured out the situation on the front line, but there was still some gap in meeting his own requirements, and indeed needed more time and support.

   "Well, I see. You have to continue with the matter here. Don't be stingy about the expenses you need. You need to find out the situation of the camps in the north. You know what is involved in this matter." Wu Yaoqing reminded.

The visitor grinned, "Don't worry, my lord, I know the pros and cons. Is Xiao Feng Xiuzhuan's concubine? If such a big incident happened, wouldn't this be a slap in the face to Xiao Feng Xiuzhuan? Jizhen is still the governor of Feng. .”

   "It's good that you know, that's enough, then you can go about your business." Wu Yaoqing turned around and was about to leave.

   "My lord, there is another situation, I wonder if I need to pay attention to it?" The person who came was also about to leave, but stopped again.

   "Oh? Tell me." Of course, Wu Yaoqing's demands on them were not limited to the attack on Feng Ziying's family, but also required them to collect useful information from all aspects.

"I found out that many people in the village believed in Wenxiangjiao. This happened when we were still in our hometown here, but they were all from poor families. But this time when I came back, I found that many of them also had Those who believe this, for example, there are craftsmen and merchants in Zhenzi Town who also believe this, but they are very secretive, and the small ones discovered it by accident, and it seems that there are guards and even border soldiers who also communicate with them..."

  Wu Yaoqing was startled all of a sudden, Master Feng Wenxiangjiao specifically explained that he should pay special attention to it, but he didn't expect that he said that he hadn't found a suitable place as an entry point, and there was already a clue here.

   "Tell me about the specific situation, how did you find out, and why you say it has something to do with the Tunwei and the frontier army..."

The visitor introduced the situation in a rambling manner. It turned out that one of his relatives was an apprentice blacksmith in Xingzhou Youtunwei in Qian'an. He said that his master believed in Wenxiangjiao, and then he carefully took these things out of the other party's mouth. Condition.

  Wu Yaoqing pondered for a long time, "This is a big matter, don't be alarmed for now, you can find a way to touch more, but don't startle the snake, if possible, it's best for you and your relative to get in,..."

  ********

  As a magistrate of a government, Feng Ziying's most important job is the Qing army.

  Looking at the withered, wrinkled man in front of him, Feng Ziying nodded, "Sit down."

   "How can there be a small seat in front of adults?"

  Wen Cranchi's words made Feng Ziying feel a little amused, "Okay, old man, sit down, I heard that you have killed seven co-prefects and five prefects, how can you still pretend to be timid in front of me?"

   Being exposed by Feng Ziying, the man didn't care, he just laughed.

  Old officials like him are different from officials who come and go in the yamen like flowing water. Basically, if they don’t make mistakes, they will work until they retire due to old illness.

  He Song San Song Lao Ji'er is a veteran official of Yongping Mansion's military survey department. He is very familiar with military affairs in Yongping Mansion.

  Of course he can sit in this position for decades, so he is not a fool.

  He can clearly distinguish who has to hold, who has to go along, and who has to suffer.

He is still trying to get in touch with this person in front of him, because he is too famous, the famous Xiao Feng Xiuzhuan in the capital city, the only son of Feng Tang, the governor of Jiliao, the disciple of the imperial envoy of old Qi Ge and deputy Qiao Zuo, Why did he suddenly come to this corner of Yongping Mansion to be a fellow acquaintance?

Of course, Yongping Mansion cannot be considered a corner, but compared with Ningbo Mansion and Baoding Mansion, it must be far inferior. It is said that people can go to these places, but if they don’t go, they just come to your Yongping Mansion. Pingfu.

  Feng Ziying took office on the second day, he was sent a congratulatory gift in a proper manner, not light but not heavy, an inkstone and a narrow blade with sheath, implying both civil and military skills.

  Later, after Second Sister You and the others arrived, this guy went to the mansion to deliver some jewelry, and even brought two maids in the house to share.

Although it is not expensive, it is worth thirty or fifty taels of silver, but I like Second Sister You so much, I don’t care how much money it is worth, the key is to finally feel that the half master of being a concubine is known and even respected by outsiders The taste of recognition.

  On that day, Feng Ziying returned to the house, and the second sister You was very passionate, and even on the bed, she used all kinds of martial arts to flatter her, so that Feng Ziying couldn't help being so affectionate.

   "Old man, stop talking nonsense, how is the matter I explained to you last time?"

  Feng Ziying also knew that this person was old-fashioned, so she didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the point.

  For Feng Ziying, it doesn't matter whether you are oily, lame, tyrannical, or greedy.

  If you can’t do it, then you have to find out all the problems. If you do well, you can suppress any problems.

"My lord, the situation of the artisan households has been cleared and registered. There are a total of 892 households with 3,479 people." Song San said solemnly: "Among them, 687 households can still maintain their production capabilities. , one thousand and forty-nine people, and the rest are all due to old age or infirmity, or women and children,..."

  Feng Ziying nodded. It seems that although there are many households, there are not many craftsmen who can really use them. This is normal. After so many years of loosening, it is not bad to have such a situation.

   "What about the military households of Dongsheng Zuowei, Lu Longwei, and Yongpingwei?"

Hearing Feng Ziying ask this question, the wrinkles on Song San's face became denser, and after hesitating for a while, he said: "My lord, it's been a long time, twenty years, and in the meantime, we have experienced the merger of the three guards and the removal of all soldiers." The process of collecting Xingzhou Youtunwei has changed too much during this period, and many archives have already been annihilated and lost. It is too difficult to clean up one by one again,..."

Song San knew that this was a troublesome matter when it was brought up. No one thought that this new acquaintance would do this as soon as he came. What is the significance of these military households?

  These military households are either artisan households with clear identities, or farmers with no skills. They have already changed their status to civilian households, and even attached to the backs of these wealthy and powerful households. Are you here to clean up this? Are you looking for trouble?

"Old man, don't fool me here. I don't know that you have worked in the Kanhe Division for 27 years. Twenty years ago, you just changed from a **** to a secretary. It's time to perform well. You Do you dare to say that these archives have been lost? Believe it or not, I will use this to punish you?" Feng Ziying stared at the other party and said, "I know you have difficulties, but it doesn't matter. I don't want to feel sorry for anyone. I also know that these soldiers The households are all on the big tree now, and they ran to Kaiping Zhongtunwei. I have a way to bring them back. These big households are hiding, and I want you to clear them out for me..."

Of course Song San did not dare to lose these military household archives. He could only say that they might not be complete or detailed. of.

"My lord, why are you here? They are all hard-working people. This military grandma doesn't love her uncle, so what can you do if you clean it up? Can you assign them all and manage them as they did twenty years ago?" Get up? Where is the land around Lulong City? If you let them go to remote places to cultivate wasteland, it won't be long before they have to go into exile again, and there is not much left?"

  Song San is earnest.

Feng Ziying was unmoved, "Cleaning up is one thing, that's what I, a colleague, do, and you, the officer of the Brigade Survey and Coordination Division, have a duty to do it. As for how to deal with it after it's been cleaned up, that's up to the lord. What are you worrying about? Thousands of military households can’t just be annihilated in such a silent manner, right? Where’s the face of the court and where’s the law?”

  Song San heard some clues, and looked at Feng Ziying suspiciously, "My lord, do you have other ideas?"

These military households are now basically attached to the big households in Lulong County, and the land has long been broken up by these people and taken by various means. Now Feng Ziying wants to clean up this, it is simply a tiger's mouth Take food.

   This is to force these big families to spit out the meat they swallowed. Of course, Song San dare not destroy the archives of military households, but he dare not bear to let him face these big families head-on.

   There will be a wave at 12 o'clock tonight, and the brothers will support you with guaranteed monthly tickets!
