Chapter 277
"My subordinates, Zhu Xiao, the magistrate of Baling County, and Zhang Yong, the magistrate of Huarong County, have met the governor!" Two men in plain clothes were quietly taken to Situ Changfeng's room by the guards that night.

"Please sit down, both of you. I'm really sorry for the trouble to come late at night." Situ Changfeng hastily stretched out his hand to invite.

"Thank you, Dudu. The two officials rushed to Yuezhou after receiving Lao Xiao's letter. If you need anything from Dudu, just ask." Zhu Xiao sat down and said, clasping his hands.

"I'm here for the first time, and I'm smeared about the situation in the two states, so I hope you can tell me the truth." Situ Changfeng said gratefully.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, the seven counties in the two prefectures under the governor's control this time are all near Dongting Lake, and they are all poor counties. Moreover, there are many water bandits in Dongting Lake, so the people live very hard.

As for the officials, some were dispatched from other places by the imperial court, and most of the rest were from local families. Among them, Xie Zhi, the prefect of Yuezhou, and Wang Ning, the prefect of Langzhou, belonged to Wang Xie of Jiangnan. Zhang, Gu and Lu's families. "Zhang Yong explained.

"Whether it's the three families of Wang, Xie and Xiao, or our four families of Zhu, Zhang, Gu, and Lu, the situation has long been in decline, but the two families of Wang and Xie have a profound heritage, and the Xiao family has Mr. Xiao, so they are much better than our four families." Zhu Xiao continued.

"Very good, thank you both very much. Please help me write down the families to which all the officials belong. It would be best if you could point out their abilities." Situ Changfeng said gratefully.

"Hehe, it's just a small matter, if you can help the governor, as for the food that the governor needs, each family has already started to prepare it, and it can be delivered at any time." Zhang Yong said quickly.

"There is no rush for food. We will inform you when we need it next time." Situ Changfeng said with satisfaction.

Then Zhang Yong and the two began to write with a pen, while Situ Changfeng checked them one by one.

After reading it, Situ Changfeng was secretly surprised. In these two prefectures, not to mention others, there are many talents. One Xiangyin county magistrate, Di Zhixun, is the father of the famous Di Renjie, and another Langzhou county lieutenant, Liu Renyuan, Also famous in another world, Chen Xiaode, Yuanjiang county magistrate, and Situ Changfeng also have reflections, so they should be famous people as well.

As for the others, they all bear the surname of the Jiangnan family. It can be seen that although these families are in decline, their strength cannot be underestimated.

"Although there are quite a few scholars from our four families, they are all in remote and wealthy places, and they are all appointed by the imperial court!" Seeing Situ Changfeng looking at the names, Zhang Yong said with a wry smile.

"En!" Situ Changfeng nodded, and he also believed what Zhang Yong said, because Yuezhou and Langzhou were poor and remote areas, and many officials were sent here.

In another world, the great poet Liu Yuxi was demoted to Langzhou.

Regarding the development of Yuezhou and Langzhou, Situ Changfeng already had many plans. Now that the personnel are roughly clarified, the ideas naturally come out.

The next day, Situ Changfeng took several people directly to the Yuezhou military camp.

"County Lieutenant Wang Xuxin has met the governor!" Wang Xuxin didn't expect Situ Changfeng to come to the barracks early in the morning, so he couldn't help feeling uneasy, and hurriedly ordered Sima, Master Bo, and the school lieutenant to meet him.

"Lieutenant Wang, call the soldiers, I want to see how the soldiers of Yuezhou are doing!" Situ Changfeng had already decided to use a quick knife to deal with the mess, he didn't want to slowly make false claims with these old foxes from the family.That would take too much time, and what is lacking in the development of the two states is time.

"Yes, the general will obey!" Wang Xuxin hurriedly clasped his fists to accept the order.

After a while, the Jujiang drum sounded, and Situ Changfeng also led people to the school grounds.

Just a glance at it, Situ Changfeng frowned secretly.

The Yuezhou sergeant reported that there were more than 8000 people, but Situ Changfeng saw that the number was more than [-] at most, and the armor was not complete. Most of them only had a spear, leather armor, and shields.

"Wang Junwei, the roster records that there are 8000 guards in Yuezhou. Anyone else went there? There are only dozens of shields in such a large Yuezhou military camp? Could it be that there are only a few hundred soldiers!" Situ Changfeng looked gloomy. , turned around and asked, the more he spoke, the more severe his tone became.

"The last general...the last general...Yuezhou is poor, and I really can't afford it. Please forgive me." Wang Xuxin stammered with sweat pouring down his forehead.

"My official sees that you are filling your own pockets, and you are not an official! Situ Changfeng shouted angrily, gnashing his teeth.

Come, take them all, and interrogate them one by one! " Immediately, without waiting for Wang Xuxin and others to make a defense, he waved his hand.

"Yes!" Immediately, the guards shouted and rushed forward.

"You..." Wang Xuxin couldn't believe that Situ Changfeng actually made a move directly, and in shock reached out his hand to grab the handle of the knife.

"Boom!" Situ Changfeng didn't even move, A Niu stepped forward, swung his fist, knocked Wang Xuxin to the ground with one punch, and stepped on the blade by the way, preventing him from moving.

Other army Sima, Zhu Bo, and Xiaowei were also taken down together.

"If it is found out that you have committed no violations of law and discipline, you will naturally be released, otherwise the law will not show mercy!" Situ Changfeng stared at several people and shouted sharply.Having said that, by looking at the expressions of several people, I know that none of their buttocks are clean.

"You may have heard about my new appointment as the Governor of Yuezhou, General Zhenxi, and Situ Changfeng, the Marquis of Yizhou. From today on, everyone must step up their training and must not violate military regulations. Of course, your military pay will be paid on time. , the ordnance will also be replaced." Situ Changfeng looked at the chattering soldiers below and shouted loudly, looking majestic with his military uniform.

"Ho! Ho! Ho!" Upon hearing this, the soldiers roared with joy.

"From now on, as long as people show good performance, they will be promoted according to their talents, so perform well." Situ Changfeng raised his hand and pressed down, and immediately fell silent, listening to him carefully.

"Du He! I appoint you as the Sima of Yuezhou County Lieutenant's Office, Zhang Wang, I appoint you as Yuezhou County Lieutenant's County Lieutenant, responsible for training and training soldiers." Situ Changfeng ordered again loudly.

"The last general obeys the order!" The two immediately went out to line up and embraced the order.

…………

Just as Situ Changfeng cleared the barracks with thunder, some people in Yuezhou City couldn't sit still.

The county guard, Xie Zhi, was fidgeting and walking back and forth in the hall.

"Master!" A guard hurriedly entered the hall.

"How is it? Is there any news from the barracks!" Xie Zhi grabbed the guard and asked.

"Returning to the master, there is no news. The barracks is under martial law, and the new governor's personal guards are guarding outside." The guard said respectfully.

"Something must have happened! Something must have happened!" Xie Zhi's face suddenly turned pale.

"Master!" The guard hurried forward to support the swaying Xie Zhi.

"Go to the island and let me know that the visitors are not friends but enemies." Xie Zhi clenched his fists and said in a low voice with a grim expression on his face.

"Yes, master, this subordinate will go right away." The guard clasped his fists and saluted, and immediately turned his head and left the door in response.
