After the fairy disappeared

Chapter 722 The Trouble of Takigawa
After finishing speaking, he turned around and took a brocade box from the shelf, and handed it to He Lingchuan.

Inside is a document and a token.

"Congratulations, from now on, you are Commander He."

He Lingchuan thanked him for taking it, and played with the token over and over again.The day after he entered Panlong City, Zhong Shengguang and General Hong left the city, leaving only an order for him to take up a new post in Yuheng City.

Receiving the token meant that he was equal to Xiao Maoliang.Even in Panlong City, such a few jumps are rare.

Seeing that he was overjoyed, Wen Daolun couldn't help pouring cold water on him: "Don't be too happy, the promotion is usually because the work is not easy to do."

He Lingchuan didn't take it seriously: "It's a good job, where can I get it?"

In one year, he was promoted from a small patrol to be the commander of the Gale Army, isn't it enough for him to be a scumbag?
But he also understands that once he is promoted to lead the army, the work and tasks are not simply a matter of fighting and killing.

A new trial has begun.

Wen Daolun said with a smile: "Commander Xiao has done a good job, but Commander Zhong said that the northern line is still in a hurry to employ people, so I leave it here for you to practice and experience, just right."

He Lingchuan was very modest: "Master Wen taught me."

Wen Daolun, the commander, will be in charge of the planning and construction, finance, economy and trade, culture and education of Yuheng City and its subordinate towns in the future.

Yes, the garrison in Yuheng City, from recruiting to training, to patrolling and fighting, will be under the sole control of He Lingchuan from now on!
In such a troubled world, military power is greater than the sky.

This shows Zhong Shengguang's trust in He Lingchuan.

Such honors and favors are simply hard for ordinary Gale Sergeants to enjoy.

Wen Daolun took him to the guard camp next door to watch the sand table, while explaining:

"Our Yuheng City is the most east of Xilong City. It is an important border town. It faces the Jinyu Kingdom across the river. This river is the Yin River. After Xijin merged into Panlong City, Jinqiao has been very nervous, and Chen Bing has never closed the border. Withdrew. We went to the Yin River to fetch water and fish, but we were often confronted with yells and arrows from the other side."

He Lingchuan nodded.

Small countries like Jinzhu and Xixiang originally thought that they had the support of Baling and Beijia, and made things difficult and accused Panlong City in every possible way.Xiyun was suddenly destroyed by Panlong City, Jin Qiao was terrified, and it was inevitable that he overreacted.

"If it's just to defend against the golden stiletto, we don't need to spend a lot of time building Yuheng City." Wen Daolun didn't make a detour, and cut directly to the topic, "What Commander Zhong cares about is this Xilong trade route—it has been renamed It is the Takigawa trade route."

Zhong Shengguang hopes that the word "Xiyu" will disappear from history completely, so even the names of places and trade routes have to be changed.

He Lingchuan said at the right time: "I heard that bandits are rampant in the south of Xixiang?"

Before Zhong Shengguang took office, Panlong Huangyuan was originally a safe haven for bandits.Later, this fierce man single-handedly created the Gale Army, which swept across the entire Panlong Wasteland in less than two years.

After defeating Zhu Erniang, the current Panlong Wasteland is basically under the firm control of Panlong City, and it has been a long time since there has been any news of bandits.

"That's right. Xilian was originally only prosperous on the surface. Although the water and soil in the south are more abundant, there is no wasteland here and no tax collection. Therefore, the former Xilian Kingdom worked hard to manage the north-central region and turned a blind eye to the bandits in the south. Over time, the robbery It has become more and more serious, even threatening the trade route between Xilong and Baishawan."

It is not surprising that there are bandits on the side of the trade road.Light and darkness accompany each other, and every businessman understands that there are risks in doing business.

But when the robbers are all red mouthed and white teeth waiting to take a big bite, when the risk is greater than the benefit, the business traveler will naturally consider changing the route or giving up.

Then the income brought by this trade route to the host will be greatly reduced. Not only will the exchange of commercial goods be affected, but the towns along the trade route will also lose their source of vitality.

This was originally a problem for Xixiang; after taking Xixiang, it became a problem for Panlong City.

"The officers and soldiers of Xilong couldn't beat the bandits, there must be some reason?"

"The crux is all in Takikawa." Wen Daolun pointed to the southeast position on the sand table, "The bandit you captured was indeed from Takikawa."

He zoomed in on the sand table, and He Lingchuan could see a large swath of water in the southeast corner of Xixiang, which is on the east side of the commercial road.

"This is... a lake?" Good guy, there must be one or two hundred lakes here, right?Big and small, dotted around.

The southeast of Xilong is actually an out-and-out water town.

"Yes, this place was originally a land of fish and rice. Its area is about half of the Chipa Plateau. It is also rich in products and even has salt wells. Later, it encountered several turmoil, and Xilong failed to manage it properly. It has become the situation it is today." Wen Daolun smiled wryly, "There are 170 lakes in Takigawa, and there are more than 50 gangsters living in them. It can be said that there are chaos!"

He Lingchuan didn't even move his eyebrows: "They all make a living by robbing trade routes?"

Just pluck the wool from a sheep?

"They live in Takigawa. They usually farm and fish. They are bandits riding horses and whizzing around. Of course, they are not only robbing the southern trade routes, but also the villages in the central and northern regions. Sometimes they even go to the Jinyi country to fight the autumn wind." Wen Daolun shook his head. , "The people and bandits are one, this is the difficulty of extermination. The Xiyun Kingdom tried many times, but they all failed. It is said that the two generals of the Huyan family fell in Takigawa. Later, they simply let it go."

These bandits are not weak in combat. He Lingchuan had just fought with them on the way here and experienced it firsthand.

Although it is said that the Dafeng Army won... nonsense, the Dafeng Army has experienced hundreds of battles, and they are not afraid of the regular coalition forces of Shangbaling and Xianyou.If the original Xixiang army came to suppress, the winning rate with the bandits would be [-]. The bandits are [-], because they are not equipped with weapons.

If the battle had taken place in Takigawa, the home of the bandits, the situation might have been reversed.

"These gangs are also big and small, and some are high and low, right?" He Lingchuan has no doubt that there will be high and low, high and low, high and low where there are people.

"Of course." Wen Daolun nodded, "There are several big gangs in Takigawa, and it is said that other gangsters will pay tribute to them, whether it is looting or fishing goods."

He Lingchuan sneered: "I really think of myself as the emperor of the land."

"But Nishina has ignored them for a long time, and we are newcomers, so we don't know much about Takigawa's internal situation."

He Lingchuan understood: "This is my duty."

Wen Daolun said again: "By the way, since the destruction of the Xixiang Kingdom, there have been a few more bandits in Longchuan."

He Lingchuan reacted quickly: "Those who refused to surrender, led the remnants into Takigawa?"

"Yeah, we captured the Xixiang Palace too quickly, and some generals of Xixiang didn't react, and the country perished, and they refused to surrender. In the past few months, Commander Xiao has been busy leading the army to counter the rebellion, defeating several troops But these remnants gathered up again and hid in Takigawa."

"It's true that everyone is going to Takigawa." He Lingchuan rubbed his chin, "Interesting."
