trick

While the two were talking, they heard someone report that Mrs. Xie's family had come.

As soon as Yue Ming heard that these two people had come, he immediately stopped being entangled, and forced a smile to let the yamen servant invite them in.

Ye Yuanxian and the others didn't have too many pleasantries with the county magistrate, they were mentally strong, and they found out from a long distance that the county magistrate was in a hurry, so they asked each other after greeting each other:

"My lord, have you thought about how to resettle those refugees?"

Yue Ming couldn't help but plucked his beard again: "This matter is not easy to handle, and if you make a mistake, you will lose your head."

Ye Yuanxian smiled: "I have a plan here, do you want to hear it?"

"Naturally." Yue Ming nodded hastily: "Mr. Ye has any tricks, just tell me, I will definitely..."

How must it be?Yue Ming didn't even think about it yet.

The atmosphere was a bit awkward, Ye Yuanxian took his words very naturally: "Blocking is worse than getting through. If people flee for their lives to our county, we can't just shut them out. It's better to invite people to leave the city [-] Build a shelter inside and out."

Yue Ming was puzzled: "What is a shelter?"

Ye Yuanxian explained: "The shelter is actually meant to avoid disasters. After it is built, all the refugees will be placed there, and will be diagnosed and treated by specialized doctors. If there is no abnormality in the refugees after half a month, they can be allowed to enter the city. .”

Yue Ming's eyes lit up, but he was worried again: "The weather is still cold now, if we only build a few sheds, we can't keep warm at all, but if we build a house in a serious way, it will take a lot of time. thirsty!"

Ye Yuan raised his eyebrows and looked at Yue Ming with a lively expression: "It all depends on whether your lord can be ruthless enough to fight hard."

Yue Ming was puzzled: "Why did you say such a thing, sir?"

Ye Yuan said leisurely: "I remember that there is a bandit den on the mountain not far from the county seat. The leader of the bandit used to be a member of the Zhao family. Now that the leader of the bandit is dead, do you still want to keep the bandit for trouble?"

"This..." Yue Ming hesitated when he thought about the difficulty of suppressing bandits, but he couldn't help being moved when he thought about the benefits and reputation that this matter would bring him. No matter how you think about it, suppressing bandits and saving people is a good story that can be passed down .

"Why does your lord hesitate?" Xie Yifeng asked, looking at Yue Ming with scrutiny in his eyes.

It was only then that Yue Ming remembered that these two people in front of him were not just ordinary warlocks, they were also the masters of the current emperor, the veritable masters of the imperial court.

Thinking of this, Yue Ming's forehead was sweating, he knew that he had to do this, and there was no room for shrinking or negotiating.

Ye Yuanxian continued: "My lord is the lord of a county, and there are many things to consider. I can understand all these, but in comparison, suppressing bandits is the most convenient way. It depends on whether your lord agrees or not?"

Promise or not?Yue Ming thought, of course he agreed, otherwise would he be killed?

"What the two gentlemen said is true." Yue Ming wiped the sweat from his forehead: "I'll make arrangements now, and I'll make arrangements right now."

Ye Yuanxian chuckled lightly: "This matter needs to be discussed in the long run, so don't worry, my lord."

"Yes, yes." Yue Ming replied in fear, and the chief clerk on one side retreated with a very winking look, and went to call the other chief clerks stationed in the towns.

Ye Yuanxian and Xie Yifeng only stopped in the county office for a while before leaving. They wandered around the street and went to eat at the previous beef restaurant by the way.

On the other hand, Yue Ming quickly counted the troops, food and grass available in the county government, and calculated the materials needed to suppress the bandits this time. As for the strategy of suppressing the bandits, it must be discussed carefully when all the masters are present. thing.

One night passed, and on the second day at the rally in Pinghuai Town, there was only a yamen guard watching. When asked by someone familiar with it, the yamen guard said that he went to the county to learn the rules, and the county magistrate wanted to explain the rules to them. .

The rest of the people praised after hearing this: "Well said, the magistrate of the county often made rules for the yamen servants after he took office, and the county has completely settled down. Even in February and March, the county is not very safe, and it is difficult to go out to visit relatives." Don’t dare, for fear of being robbed by bandits on the way.”

"My lord, when will you give that bandit to..." Someone asked halfway before being hammered by a friend at the side. He hurriedly stopped the conversation and stopped talking, for fear of causing some disaster.

The yamen servant also seemed to have heard nothing, and continued to patrol forward with a smile.

Several large caravans left the city that afternoon. Everyone knew that it was not safe to do business in Spring. It was quite normal for several large caravans to travel together.

In the evening, a group of workers went out of the city chatting and laughing. Others asked them that a big client asked them to work. The wages were [-] copper coins a day, which was high. Customers, it will take several days.

Others only felt envious when they heard that Chunri was in the middle of the season, and it was a stroke of luck to find such a customer.

When it was completely dark, the tall and heavy city gates were slowly closed, and the streets of Xianchengli were almost deserted.

The people in the small village outside the city fell asleep peacefully after seeing this, and found nothing unusual.

At this time, on the mountain more than ten miles away in the county, more than 300 young and strong men took off all kinds of disguises, put on the uniform armor of the county government, and took out long guns, Wooden bows and other weapons come.

Not long after, everything was ready, and they could quickly reach the mountain where the bandits were just waiting for their lord's order.

Among the accompanying soldiers were a few young men dressed in black. They looked young but not weak in aura. Their skills were even better than the servants in the yamen. No one dared to underestimate them right now. .

These people are the servants of the Xie family. They have been in the military camp and know a lot about the war. They came out today to exercise their skills, and on the other hand, to fill the yamen.

Ye Yuanxian and Xie Yifeng didn't follow the bandits, they just need to make suggestions at the right time, there is no need to follow everything.

Ordinary people slept peacefully all night, but the hills [-] miles away from the county were screaming and killing, and the torches illuminated the hills like daytime. The animals in the mountains fled dozens of miles away with their tails between their ears.The smell of blood came from far away on the hilltop.

When the light of dawn quietly fell on the crowd, the soldiers who had killed all night realized their fatigue, but soon they rubbed their faces to drive away the fatigue, leaving only the joy of victory in their eyes.

They were victorious. Under the leadership of Yue Ming, they successfully wiped out most of the bandits, and the remaining leaders were also captured alive, waiting to be escorted back to the county government for interrogation.

Everyone looked at the heads of the house who were drooping like little chickens in the corner, and their eyes couldn't help but look a little pitiful. Thinking about how these people were about to escape under their noses last night, they were unexpectedly killed by a few young men in black. stop.

Those young men and the yamen servants couldn't help but smack their lips enviously. They only felt that the subordinates handed over by the master tiao were extremely capable. They, the old sticklers who had lived in the yamen for a long time, were not as capable as others. .

Seeing that the bandits were unable to defeat them last night, the leaders of the Second Leader, Third Leader, Fourth Leader, and Fifth Leader agreed to flee from four directions with their confidants and money, thinking that they would be able to escape.

Unexpectedly, not long after walking, they were blocked by two people who appeared out of nowhere. The head of the family thought that it would be easy for two-on-two bandits to deal with these lazy government servants. As a result, they lost an unknown number of front teeth , and a few ribs were broken.

Not to mention that there are countless large and small wounds on the body, and these black-clothed people who suddenly appeared have evil hearts. It hurts like hell.

In pain, these reckless men squatted on the spot like little chickens, only knowing how to moan and chirp, and could no longer think of running away.

Lekang County suppressed bandits and returned with a big victory.

When the common people heard the news, they applauded and praised the county magistrate like a river.

The bandits who were captured were all imprisoned and exiled, and those who were not guilty of death were all exiled outside the customs, and those who were imprisoned were all heinous and waited to be executed after the fall.

Everyone thought that the matter of suppressing the bandits was over like this, but they didn't expect that the county sent many yamen servants to take the workers to the bandit's den.

This time it was not to suppress the bandits. As soon as the workers arrived at the place, they took the guys who had eaten to clean up the houses damaged during the battle, and repaired the damaged furniture and stoves.

It took three days to tidy up the bandit den, but everyone still didn't know what the county magistrate was doing with the bandit den.

Until one day later, the people fleeing from Changping County appeared on the border of Lekang County, and the soldiers defending here were so frightened that they quickly reported the news to the county magistrate.

The news didn't spread, and everyone in Lekang County also knew that there were refugees coming from places infected by the plague and they were about to come to their county.

The people began to panic, and some secretly hoarded food in order to take the opportunity to drive up prices, and the stable Lekang County became visibly restless.

However, before the panic spread, the yamen ordered all the refugees to be resettled on a mountain twenty miles away from the county seat, where doctors would observe and treat them.

As soon as this news came out, combined with the previous incident of suppressing bandits, everyone understood the intention of Yamen to suppress bandits.

The landlords and squires who heard about this lamented that Yue Ming had become more and more unfathomable, and he handled this matter very well.The people also praised the county magistrate for his benevolence and righteousness, as if the sky was alive.

For a while, Yueming, the magistrate of Lekang County, had a great reputation, and it spread in several surrounding counties, and even reached the ears of the magistrate of Tianshun Prefecture soon after, and he praised him a lot.

And only a handful of people know who the author of this strategy is.

Refugees from Changping County were scattered all the way, plus those who went to other counties, not many actually went to Lekang County, only less than 600 people.

There were hundreds of bandits in the bandit den at its peak, so it occupied a large area and had enough houses, even if thousands of people were squeezed together, they could live there.

The food for these people is borne by the yamen and individuals. The yamen provides a meal of porridge and a meal of dry porridge a day, and they have to subsidize the rest.

Now the food, clothing and housing of these refugees can be considered to be properly resolved, the only thing left is diagnosis and treatment.

There are not many doctors in Lekang County, and most of them are not considered poor on weekdays. Almost no one wants to come to this barren mountain to treat refugees despite their good days.

What if I get infected?
