He smiled slightly and said: "Everyone, I invited you here because I just received the appointment of Wang Qi, Prime Minister of Langya. He invited the old man to help him. This matter, the old man agreed."

"Mr. Duan, what are we people doing when we become officials?"

Among the crowd, another person spoke.

His name is Fan Gan.

Fan Gan's age is over seventy, he is the oldest among them.When he was young, he was the prefect of a county. Later, he retired and stayed at home, so he had nothing to do.

Fan Gan and Duan Jiuzhen have a good relationship and have been friends for many years.

The rest of the people also looked at Duan Jiuzhen.

They were all waiting for Duan Jiuzhen to speak.

Duan Jiuzhen stroked the gray beard under his chin, and said: "We work for Wang Qi, neither military affairs nor government affairs are involved, we are a separate system."

Fan Gan said, "What do you mean?"

Duan Jiuzhen said: "Wang Qi set up a supervision department alone, and the old man serves as the director, directly under Wang Qi. What our supervision department has to do is to monitor all places and counties under Wang Qi's jurisdiction."

"Once there are officials who are corrupt and break the law, or there are violations of law and discipline, or even unresolved matters, they will be reported to Wang Qi and let him arrange someone to deal with them."

"I think it's a good thing."

"Why are people's lives difficult? On the one hand, there are lawbreakers, and on the other hand, there are officials who are corrupt and pervert the law. So we put an end to this, the place will be cleaner, and the lives of the people will be better."

Duan Jiuzhen continued: "For us old men, I think it's good to do our best and do what we can for the rest of our lives."

After Fan Gan finished listening, he stroked his gray beard and said: "What Duan Gong said is very true, this matter, this old man is duty-bound."

"I'll wait, it's my duty."

The rest of the people also spoke one after another.

There are smiles on every face.

Now they are full of children and grandchildren, and their family life is relatively good, and they have nothing to do.Now, to be able to do such a thing, even if it is beneficial to the country and the people, I am willing.

Duan Jiuzhen smiled and said: "I know that you will not refuse. This matter is settled like this. Right now, we can prepare and discuss what to do."

"Next, we will head to Nanyang and start working on things."

"Now under Wang Qi's rule, there are Langya Country, Donghai County and Pengcheng Country. If you want to be able to monitor the places, you must understand these places clearly."

Duan Jiuzhen said: "We don't need to arrange people to stay in these places. But we need to be able to keep abreast of the local situation, so we have a lot of things to do, so we should discuss them carefully."

Fan Gan said seriously: "It's a bit difficult, but it's an obligation. This is a good thing."

Every old man's face is full of fighting spirit.

They have something to do.

This is very meaningful and a great thing to help the people.

Although they are old, they don't accept the old. In terms of fighting spirit, they are like young people, and they are very excited.Everyone was chatting, chatting, and discussing how to develop after seeing the supervisory department.

Chapter 419

The weather in January has rarely snowed.From time to time, the warm winter sun shines.Although it was still cold, it was much better without the heavy snow.

The people who are a little bit more diligent are already busy with spring plowing and are preparing ahead of time.

Wang Qi is now stationed in Pengcheng County.

After all, Zhang Yu has a lot of things to deal with when he is in office. Wang Qi must sort out all the things clearly before Wang Qi can go north.Wang Qi is now living in the military camp, after all, the Prime Minister's Mansion is Zhang Yu's residence.

Inside the Chinese army tent.

Wang Qi is looking at the local situation in Pengcheng Kingdom.

The area of ​​Pengcheng Kingdom is small, with many mountains and rivers. It does not have the advantage of being close to the sea in Donghai County, and it lacks a foundation for development.However, the main thing to do now is to develop farming and stabilize the situation.

When Wang Qi was flipping through the documents, Zhuge Feng and Zhou Zishan entered together.

The relationship between the two is very good now.

After all, they are all wise men.

The two have many topics in common, and many affairs are discussed together.

Zhuge Feng and Zhou Zishan entered, and after saluting to Wang Qi, Zhuge Feng said: "Second Brother, I came with the military advisor to capture the prisoners. We almost captured the entire Pengcheng Kingdom, and Donghai County is also under our control. I discussed with the military adviser that Chen Yan's captives should be released back. For us, releasing this group of people will actually help us."

Wang Qi said, "What do you mean?"

Zhuge Feng nodded to Zhou Zishan, motioning for Zhou Zishan to say.

Zhou Zishan smiled and said, "Zhuge Changshi said so."

Zhuge Feng didn't refuse, and took advantage of the situation and said: "The military adviser and I agree that many of this group of prisoners have actually been subdued by us and fear us."

"There are even many people who yearn for our Langya country and wish to work under our command. Therefore, there is no need for us to recruit such a group of people, and many people will be shaken in their hearts."

"Bringing them back will instead promote the power of our Langya Kingdom and shake Chen Yan's prestige."

"When we destroy Lu Shengqi in Qingzhou and deal with Chen Yan next, then these soldiers will at least lose their combat effectiveness when they encounter our surrender, and they may even be directly recruited by us."

Zhuge Feng said: "This step is the layout for the next step."

Zhou Zishan echoed: "Master, we are about to start a war with Lu Shengqi. It is very important to stabilize Chen Yan. Releasing the army to go back is enough to temporarily stabilize Lu Shengqi."

After Wang Qi listened, he also thought about it.

On Chen Yan's side, stability is the main priority.

In a short time, it should be impossible to start a war with Wang Qi again, after all, there is Kong Si supporting him.

Wang Qi thought for a while and said, "Since we want to release the captives, let's do so. Before we leave, I'll talk to them first, so as to make some connections, which will help us capture Xuzhou in the future."

"My lord is wise!"

Zhou Zishan and Zhuge Feng answered together.

Wang Qi stood up, took Zhou Zishan and Zhugefeng out of the camp, found Xiao Qingzhi, and asked Xiao Qingzhi to bring out all the prisoners in custody. More than 2 prisoners were all in the army, and they were always taken with them when they were on the road.

Whatever Wang Qi's soldiers ate, so did the prisoners.

From beginning to end, no prisoner was treated harshly.It was precisely because of this reason that many of Chen Yan's soldiers wanted to surrender to Wang Qi.

It didn't take long, and all the prisoners lined up.

Each of them was a prisoner with a ruddy complexion.

In this cold weather, there was no shortage of their clothes.All of them were dressed thickly, and most of the soldiers looked at Wang Qi with gratitude in their eyes.

Wang Qi never abused them.

Everyone was talking in a hurry, although the voice was very small, but there were too many people. More than 2 people were talking in low voices, which made the voice buzzing like a noisy vegetable market.

"quiet!"

Wang Qi stepped forward and shouted.

With one order, everyone was silent.

In the school grounds, there was no sound, there was no sound, and no one spoke.Everyone's eyes, neatly and neatly, fell on Wang Qi.

Wang Qi mentioned it in one breath, and shouted: "Soldiers, Mo Bao died, and Xu Youdao took you to surrender. You have had some time since you surrendered. According to the agreement between me and Chen Yan, Chen Yan put Donghai County and Pengcheng Kingdom, Ceded to me, and I will release you."

"Now I have controlled the East China Sea and Pengcheng Kingdom, so according to the agreement, it's time to release you."

"Let you return to Xiapi, Xuzhou."

Wang Qi said: "After all, all of you are Chen Yan's soldiers."

Whoa! !

There was an uproar in the army.

Many soldiers talked a lot, and many people even had expressions of resistance on their faces. Many people were unwilling to go back.

What are you going back for?

He is doing well under Wang Qi's command, why bother to go back?

Wang Qi quietly watched the scene where the soldiers were discussing. He saw many people talking, and he even heard some soldiers shouting that they did not want to go back and wanted to follow Wang Qi.

There were many voices, and they kept ringing.

Wang Qi let the soldiers discuss, and after a long while, he raised his hand and pressed down, signaling for everyone to be quiet.

After the soldiers stopped talking, Wang Qi continued: "I heard what you discussed just now, and many people said that they want to stay and work for me. It's great that you believe in me and are willing to follow me, thank you Your trust. But this time, I can't accept you."

As soon as these words came out, many soldiers showed even more disappointed expressions.

There was another discussion.

Wang Qi let the soldiers discuss again, and did not rush to speak.He wants to win the hearts of the soldiers, and at the same time make everyone go back willingly. This is Wang Qi's goal.

Wang Qi was not in a hurry, and let the soldiers continue their discussion.

"Master, we don't want to leave. We want to stay and serve the Prime Minister."

"I implore the Prime Minister to take him in."

"I implore the country to accept us."

Suddenly, soldiers in the crowd shouted.

The shouts of the soldiers gradually became orderly, and each soldier kept shouting.The voices came and went, resounding continuously, echoing in the barracks.

After Wang Qi heard it, a look of pride appeared on his face.

This is the result of heart-to-heart comparison.

If Wang Qi did not treat these captives as human beings, did not give them good food and clothes, treated them like cows and horses, and oppressed these captives wantonly, all the captives would not be so excited.

Wang Qi waited for a while before raising his hand and pressing down, signaling for everyone to be quiet.

The scene returned to calm again.

Wang Qi's voice was thick and loud, and he shouted: "Many of you are willing to submit to me and work for me. I thank you for your trust in this matter. I still say the same thing and cannot accept you."

"And I also request that all of you must return to Xiapi."

"why?"

"The reason is very simple. All of you are registered. Everyone is in the army and has their own names and places of origin. Now you are released to go back. If someone does not want to go back and wants to stay, then your family members in Xuzhou in Xiapi what to do?"

"Leave them alone?"

"impossible."

Wang Qi talked eloquently, with a sincere look, and said: "You have your own family members, and you must consider the safety of your family members. Moreover, even if you may lose your family members, you still have relatives and neighbors. If it is because you submit to me, It is also possible for relatives to be angered.”

"Chen Yan was defeated, and he was furious."

"It's impossible for him to deal with me, and he can't beat me, so now he's holding back his anger. If you don't go, you may be angered by Chen Yan, and it will easily affect your family and even relatives."

"So, you have to go back."

Wang Qi said: "You are willing to surrender to me. I will write this down. But you must go back, so today, I will not leave anyone behind, and all of you have to leave."

All the prisoners were even more moved when they heard Wang Qi's words.

Unexpectedly, Wang Qi was so considerate of them, and this was the reason why they were not kept.

In the hearts of the soldiers, they recognized Wang Qi even more.

I think Wang Qi is the real master of Ming Dynasty.

Wang Qi continued: "Everyone leave, I'll give you five days of dry food. Go south from Pengcheng Kingdom and enter Xiapi. Now that the heavy snow doesn't last, five days is enough to return to Xiapi."

"Xiao Qingzhi!"

Wang Qi gave an order.

"exist!"

Xiao Qingzhi immediately stood up and answered.

Wang Qidao: "Prepare dry food, distribute it to all soldiers, and let them leave."

"Yes!"
