Speaking of which, it has been almost three months since he took office in February and shouted at Yuan Hong in public. Liu Cheng has not established his authority for almost three months. If he counts from the day after Spring Plowing when he showed his authority in the hall, it has been two months, especially since he has not taken action against the little Military Commander below.

Therefore, when he heard that someone really didn't follow the rules, he was not surprised but happy.

To put it bluntly, even if this general is General Who Pacifies the West, he can also rectify it... Because it is definitely not the ghost-looking Xie Shang who personally ordered me to go to the west of the city to call hundreds of refugees to come over, build the camp gate, and then specifically not allow food to be eaten.

At most, it was Xie Shang's cronies who did this, just in time for Xie Xuan to indulge in pornography.

So what is he afraid of?

Why is Xie Xuan so precocious and so easy to use, but he is not released to work with Fan Ning, but wants to stay in Shouchun? Isn't that the reason? Let Xie Shang see clearly, I know the upper-level political organization, and I know that Western Command belongs to you Xie Family, and I have no intention of getting involved.

Regardless of whether this kind of thing is reasonable or not, this is the way it is now anyway. You Liu Acheng haven't had a chance to serve on the table yet, so you just hide your thoughts and work hard for the overall situation while working hard to create opportunities to serve on the table.

We'll talk about the next thing later, let's not get into internal friction for now.

Zhu Chuo is very clear, and he immediately knew who he was talking about, Banner Chief, who was not returning, Liu Cheng also thought that this person might be here... Of course, even When Liu Huzi first came to Shouchun, he had to rely on fellow villager Jingkou, old grandson, to take care of him. Now one of the three buildings under his control is the grandson's son. This person must also have someone to rely on.

Ask again, the answer is Zhu Xian.

That's easy to handle.

Zhu Xian is an authentic Military Clan, the kind who respects political rules and is dedicated to supporting his family, which is different from the stinky Northern Migrants.

So, Liu Cheng immediately transferred back to Shouchun's government office, and at the same time asked Zhu Chuo to go ahead and call Zhu Xian. After returning, it turned out that brother Zhu Clan had already arrived, so he carefully asked about that person's other origins.

His surname is Guo, his name is Man, he is twenty-seven or eight years old, his hometown is Qiao Commandery, and the people who were defeated during the defeat three years ago moved to Huainan. Last year, he took advantage of the opportunity to replenish troops and joined the army to make Banner Chief.

He has no foundation and is indeed poor. This is probably why he doesn't follow the rules.

These are also consistent with previous relevant interviews and surveys.

"What are you going to do with the former army?" After the introduction, Zhu Xian was obviously uneasy.

The reason is very simple. According to the normal thinking, since people are here to seize power, they must have some favor and prestige. At this time, it is time to intervene in military affairs. The simplest and most direct way to gain authority in the military is to annex. Pick a mistake, kill the leader, annex them all, move the refugees in the rear to South of the Yangtze, replenish them into your own Manor, eat them up, and leave nothing behind.

Moreover, the current General Liu of the Vanguard Army, even if there are no entries that he cannot understand, just from the most basic Military Commander logic, he still has the strength and reputation to do it.

In other words, this Guo Man really hit it.

"Perform it in accordance with the law." Liu Cheng thought for a moment and gave the answer. "Just do whatever you want... but, General Zhu."

"Hey." Zhu Xian could only respond in uneasiness.

"I am determined to act in accordance with the law, but I am worried that these Huai River Refugee Commanders people have already become frightened and do not know what is good or bad." Liu Cheng took it seriously. "So we must be fully prepared."

"Of course." Zhu Xian nodded immediately, but still didn't know what "acting in accordance with the law" meant.

"General Zhu, can I trust you?" Liu Cheng suddenly asked.

This is the key.

Zhu Xian was somewhat resistant to Guo Man. After all, the guy was relatively close to him, but when it came to this matter, he had to make a basic statement, so he immediately responded, "What did the former army say? That day in the hall, We heard clearly and knew that the former army was doing business under the orders of Empress Dowager, the emperor and Tai Pavilion. Pacification of the West himself promised that subordinate generals like me should serve the former army in both public and private matters."

There are still stairs.

Of course, it is one thing for the Zhu family to place bets everywhere, and it is also true to be all-round and exquisite, but after all, Mao Muzhi was the number one general in the Xifu before he was airborne. How could he kowtow directly in a few months?

And Liu Cheng didn't mean it that way, so he nodded directly. "That's good."

After saying that, he ordered Xie Xuan again, "Go and call Wang Guan."

Xie Xuan took action, and Wang Xia had to come over conscientiously. After arriving, Liu Cheng asked Xie Xuan to introduce the situation.

To be fair, after listening to these descriptions, Wang Xia had exactly the same thoughts as Zhu Xian - did you hit the tip of your Gilt-Dyed Blade knife? Take the opportunity to eat it up and gain power? But who has to say this? Face, Zhu Xian must be more embarrassed. Guo Man, that guy was closer to you before. It is said that he was so poor that he didn't forget to ask the sergeant below to take Huai Prince Fish and send it to Zhu family.

It is precisely because of this that Wang Xia's mentality is obviously much more relaxed. "Since the former army wants to deal with it according to law, why should they ask me to do it? With General Zhu here, what can't be done?"

"That's what I said." Liu Cheng responded calmly. "I have dealt with Northern Migrants. Those Hebei people are really willing to rebel and kill people if they disagree. Of course Huai River region is much better, but I heard people say This Guo Man has been attached to Yao Xiang for a while. I'm worried that he has also contracted some problems. What if he doesn't know what to do, makes trouble, and disturbs Shouchun or Pacification of the West?"

This is a fair statement. No matter how bullshit Liu Cheng, the upstart, fights for power and profit, he will always care about Xie Shang's dignity and safety.

"Then what do the former soldiers want to do?" Wang Xia said seriously.

"I will ask General Zhu to call people to deal with it later." Liu Cheng said solemnly. "As soon as Deng Ren comes over, please ask Wang Guan to send his subordinates to surround Guo Man's camp in the northwest of the city to prevent unrest."

"Okay." Wang Xia thought for a moment and agreed very readily. "This is also simple."

His idea is very simple. It is his duty to control the situation. In addition, if Guo Man's subordinates are really controlled by his own people, even if they are really dealt with by Liu Cheng and enter the annexation stage, he can still take a big bite.

"That's good." Liu Cheng nodded immediately, and then urged them directly. "Please go to the two generals immediately. General Zhu calls for help, and General Wang will control the situation later."

Wang Xia and Zhu Xian each held their hands and came out together.

Coming out of the door, Wang Xia couldn't help but sneered at Zhu Xian, who had an obviously tense look on his face and had just hesitated to hand over his hand... The meaning was obvious, you fawn over all day long, and I don't know what you are fawning over? This kind of upstart who rose from Northern Migrants not only occupies the position above, but also wants to take advantage of the benefits below, how can you have any leftovers?

Zhu Xian felt depressed for a while, but he really had no choice. He couldn't offend Liu Cheng, a powerful person Shouchun, whom he had known for several months, over this matter. In addition, he had just received a promise, so he had no choice but to leave the city. As a result, he felt guilty and worried, so he simply stopped outside the city gate and asked his trusted knight to call for someone.

Guo Man didn't know anything about it, so he came after getting a message, and then he was surrounded by Zhu Xian's trusted knights. He handed over his weapons first, and then followed the opponent to the city in panic. He was inevitably scolded along the way. After questioning, it was only then that I realized that because of my greed for gain, I had actually bumped into the newly arrived ex-soldier. I couldn't help but panic completely, but I had already been profited, and I really couldn't help it. I just kept begging Zhu Xian for help.

Of course Zhu Xian promised to help, but he himself also felt guilty. Liu Cheng would definitely intervene in military affairs to establish his authority, and Wang Xia would definitely crowd around to watch his jokes. What could he do?

Only this Guo Man said it was pitiful. It was really not a big deal. Isn't it just that the peasant husbands were recruited and not given food? Those peasant husbands died in Huaibei tens of thousands when they were refugees. No one paid attention to it. Especially Wang Xia's laughter just now was a bit sullen, so as he listened, Zhu Xian became suffocated and decided to try his best to save this person.

You know that this is my dependence, even if you don't have any serious responsibilities, but you don't give me any face? I even sent my biological brother over.

Let's see how you implement it according to the law!

It was early summer, and the sky was getting late. When we arrived at Commandery Office, it was still bright. Zhu Xian led people in with a dark face, but did not notice at all that his youngest brother did not come out to greet them.

Instead of going to the hall, he was brought to the back Flower Hall.

Liu Cheng was sitting there, Xie Xuan was standing with a knife, and the Langya Wang Clan boy next to him was making tea... Seeing this scene, Zhu Xian felt a little guilty again, and when we talk about it later, he must have considered the bigger picture, not only the strength of the opponent's forces, but also if he made a noise in the Flower Hall, overturned the tea soup, and hurt anyone, he would have to pay for his future.

"Da Guo." Liu Cheng looked up and saw the person coming, as casually as when he went on a previous inspection visit. "You are here. Please sit down and drink tea...General Zhu has a serious personality. Didn't it scare you?"

Guo Man was already in a panic. Now he was so frightened that he didn't dare to step forward. Zhu Xian pushed him with a dark face and stepped forward to sit down.

"Da Guo, you should already know the matter. Let me ask you now, is it because the tribe moved to Huainan a little late, and there is no economic foundation at all. The sergeants and the tribe are so poor that they did such a shameful thing?" Liu Cheng first asked Wang Xianzhi to serve tea, and then asked softly.

"That's it, that's it." Guo Man spoke quickly, as if he had found a way out, so that his accent was distorted, and then he rambled on and listed all the difficulties he had faced in the past few years.

Liu Cheng was not in a hurry, listened carefully, and then sighed, "In terms of origin, I am also a Huai River region refugee, and like you, I am also a Qiao Commandery refugee. How could I not know the hardships of the refugees in the past few years? In terms of official position, I am Huainan Administrator, and your people are under my rule. It's General of the Vanguard Army who was ordered to assist Western Command. You are also half a subordinate, so this matter is all my responsibility. But I didn't know that your tribe is so poor. Especially since I went to your building to investigate before, and there were obvious signs, but I didn't delve into it. It can be seen that this matter is my responsibility in the first place. I didn't investigate clearly, and I didn't take care of you."

After saying that, he stood up and bowed his hands towards the other party. "This is my fault. Please forgive me, Da Guo."

Just when Zhu Guo and Wang Xie were both stunned, the man stood up and asked sincerely, "Da Guo, can you give me a month to privately transfer some money and silk from your home in the back to appease the refugee camps in Huainan that have been relocated less than three years ago as compensation?"

----I am the dividing line for asking for forgiveness----

In the past, Emperor Taizu prospered in Huai River region, and people in the world talked a lot about Luo Gong's merits. However, Emperor Taizu has been in Huai River region for many years, and he has accumulated every day, and has been favored and respected every month. Otherwise, how could it be that Luo Gong Huai River region made the decision? Lord's ancestors are also among them, and we should know it clearly.
