Chapter 226 Capturing the King
Qin Prajna left. She had a lot of things to do and it was impossible for her to waste her energy on a prefect. She also believed that with that document, Shen Qingzhou would definitely cooperate. It was a benefit, but also a death warrant. If he didn't cooperate, the Ministry of Personnel would not recognize who the Tongpan was.
However, she never expected that Shen Qingzhou had no intention of finding another judge and was just doing it part-time for the time being. It was not like he couldn't shoulder the burden.
As for the documents, he just put them there. As long as he didn't write them, he could control them a little. Who told you to do this? This is why you have to go through formal channels. Qin Prajna did it, but she just couldn't think of that she could withstand such temptation.
"Second brother, this is the next thing, take a look." Shen Qingzhou handed a glass to Shen Erniu.
"This, this is colored glass." Shen Erniu held it carefully. Ancient colored glass was very precious.
"This is glass. Let's do this first." Shen Qingzhou said, and the entire Dongyang Prefecture began to move.
Shen Erniu brought people from Shenjia Village and Zhangjia Village to establish the Shenjia Trading Company in the city and started doing business in Dongyang Prefecture.
Shen Qingzhou started to do what a prefect should do. The government office relied on his status to suppress the people temporarily. With this status, unless people wanted to rebel, there was nothing they could do to him for the time being. The most they could do was refuse to cooperate. But if they refused to cooperate, he really would not let them be officials, which put everyone in a dilemma.
Normally, this kind of young man can be bullied, but Shen Qingzhou is stubborn and stubborn, and everyone can't find any handle on him for the time being, so they have to wait.
Shen Qingzhou took this opportunity to run the government office normally and assigned tasks to each county on time. If anyone did not cooperate, they would be dismissed directly. He would not tolerate anyone.
Many people think that he has no intention of making progress. Having offended so many people, there is no way he can get promoted. However, Shen Qingzhou doesn't care.
Everyone is waiting for the time to collect taxes. By that time, no one will be able to collect the taxes. If you have the ability, chop off the heads of all the people and then no one will be able to punish you.
The good times didn't last long, as they reported that there were bandits blocking the road. What else could he say? Shen Qingzhou took this opportunity to take control of the government army himself.
He was not idle during this period. He captured Pan Wang and resolved many injustices in the city. He also personally sent Shen Sanyang to allocate funds to various counties. The most important thing was that no one in the government office dared to embezzle because of him. Anyone who dared to take bribes would be punished.
Because of this, his talent improved and he was able to write an amplified poem.
“When drawing a bow, use a strong one; when using an arrow, use a long one; when shooting a person, shoot the horse first; when capturing a thief, capture the leader first.” “Capture the Leader” was written in one breath. Even if it is only half of the poem, one can imagine the murderous intent in it because of the red tint on the rice paper.
Shen Qingzhou is a true god of killing. Even if his real body did not come, just this one poem can exude murderous aura.
This is a poem to strengthen the army. You can see it from Shen Qingzhou's writing. As long as he uses this poem, the archery skills of the soldiers under his command will be improved to a higher level.
This is nothing. He had done an experiment. If he used this poem and then sang "Song of the Frontier", the power of the tiger and leopard cavalry he could summon would be much higher, and he would definitely have the power of the fourth level.
When he arrived at the city, he realized that there were not many masters in Dongyang Prefecture. Most of the people on the Langya List were in the courts of major countries. Dongyang Prefecture was not very big, but very important. If it were not for Hetao, it would directly face Beiyan. Because of this, it was not very prosperous.
……
"Sir, we only have these few soldiers and horses. Isn't it a bit dangerous?" A young man in his thirties, holding a spear, said to Shen Qingzhou, who was sitting next to him at the wheel and wearing armor.
He was a palace soldier, not a general. Because there was no Tongpan at the moment and the deputy commander had been arrested, he was directly promoted by Shen Qingzhou to temporarily lead the palace army.
However, he had no control over anyone other than the one hundred or so brothers under his command. The reason he came to power was because he was indeed relatively honest and had a sense of justice, but his ability was just that.
Many people don't give face, but they don't give face secretly. Shen Qingzhou can't ask everyone to retreat, so he has to stabilize it for the time being.
This time, Shen Qingzhou directly asked him to take his soldiers with him to suppress the bandits. He thought Shen Qingzhou was crazy. What can such a small number of people do? They can protect themselves, but you are going to attack the largest stronghold in Dongyang Prefecture directly, which is supported by Beiyan.
That's right, there is a Swallow Mountain in Dongyang Prefecture, and the bandits there are called Swallow Bandits. They are powerful and often kill passing merchants. But they never step out of their own Swallow Mountain area. Passing merchants also know this, so they can only take a detour, at least two more days.
The government troops came to clear out the rebellion, but when there were too few people, they would come to provoke us, and when there were too many people, they would not come down the mountain. It was very disgusting.
"Don't worry, I have an insider." Shen Qingzhou said.
An hour later.
"Haha, there are only more than a hundred people, and you are so bold as to come to my Yanzi Mountain. Lord Shen, you never expected that your whereabouts have been exposed long ago." A bearded man carrying a large Guandao drove his horse forward and said.
"Listen to my command, fire in unison." Shen Qingzhou said, and the more than one hundred soldiers behind him understood it immediately. The distance was so far, so they just had to fire a wave and then run. The meaning was clear.
Many officials do this. Fighting and killing is dangerous, and they have to give an explanation when they return from doing something. It seems that the prefect also uses the same routine, and they still say that he is upright. Bah.
"Haha, bro, they think they are sharpshooters from such a distance."
"Haha."
“Haha. Ah.”
Suddenly, an arrow pierced through the two people who were laughing. The bearded man looked at each other. The man in armor in the lead was the one who did it. And what was that?
Five or six hundred people from both sides looked at a black figure above Shen Qingzhou's head. The figure made the same gesture as him, and then shot another arrow.
"To shoot a man, shoot his horse first; to capture a thief, capture his leader first." When a line of poetry sounded, many people felt as if they were hallucinating. They were still looking at the figure. The arrow in the big black shadow's hand merged with the arrow in the prefect's hand and went straight towards the enemy's leader.
"Playing tricks." The bearded man was frightened. What kind of martial arts was this? He knew martial arts, so he chopped with his sword. From such a distance, he didn't believe that the arrow would have any power.
"Good archery." Then, the arrow came out of his throat, and after mumbling something, he fell off his horse.
At the same time, many soldiers who followed Shen Qingzhou in archery also found that their arm strength had increased a lot, and their eyesight had also improved a lot.
The other side didn't have time to run away. After two rounds of arrow rain, more than 300 of them fell to the ground. Only about 100 were left. They had already fled. However, each arrow seemed to have eyes.
An hour later.
"Master Shen, this is Murong Yun, the leader of the bandit group Swallow Village. I didn't expect him to come down the mountain in person."
"Good, disguise yourself and follow me to Yanzi Mountain." Shen Qingzhou said.
"Yes." Many soldiers haven't reacted yet and don't know how they became stronger. However, it's a good thing.
Day two.
"what is that?"
At the gate of Dongyang City.
