Cangzhou.
The plunder three years ago has not recovered from the trauma of the city, which was devastated by barbarians. The population of Cangzhou is only 30000.
The decline of population and the abandonment of all kinds of industries are the true portrayal of Cangzhou at this time. However, since the government issued the order to cultivate farmland in winter, more and more people have come back to Cangzhou to cultivate farmland.
However, compared with the sparsely populated people, most of them are still businessmen who trade with each other. Some of these businessmen hold official proclamations, while more of them are smugglers who do not.
The trade of the barbarians in Dayu has always been strictly controlled, but in the face of the pressure of the barbarians, we have to open the border trade, but some trade is strictly prohibited in Dayu.
One is coal and iron, and the other is horses. Generally speaking, trade in war materials is prohibited unless there is a certificate issued by the government.
The last time the Wangs mentioned the trade with barbarians in Xiao Ming, they were afraid because they were guilty about the trade of coal and iron.
Different from the past, a group of well-equipped cavalry entered Cangzhou City at noon today, and the people in the city were almost scared to death when they saw the armor on the cavalry.
Because all the cavalry were wearing barbarian armor, and the horses were as strong as the barbarian horses. At first sight, they thought that the barbarian cavalry had entered the city. Only when they saw the Qingzhou flag clearly did they feel a little relieved.
According to Xiao Ming's order, Lu Fei led the elite cavalry of Qingzhou to Cangzhou day and night, and arrived at Cangzhou City in two days and one night.
This time, he was ordered to take down Cangzhou governor Chai Lingwu and Cangzhou governor Wei Tong and escort them to Qingzhou. If they resist, they can be killed on the spot!
Entering Cangzhou City, Lu Fei with 30 cavalry directly ran to Cangzhou government.
Chai Lingwu and Wei Tong, one is the son-in-law of the Qin family, the other is the concubine of the Wei family. In Lu Fei's opinion, neither of them is a good thing, and the four families should be cut to pieces.
Three years ago, the barbarians invaded Liuzhou. When the barbarians trampled on Liuzhou, the common people howled under the barbarians' hooves. However, the local aristocrats hid in their own strongholds and called on their families to defend themselves.
At that time, there were no more than 2000 barbarian cavalry soldiers in the six states, and nearly ten thousand of the four tribes. However, these rich families were all worried about the loss of their own tribes and refused to resist.
It was not until he led 3000 soldiers to defeat the barbarian vanguard troops in Cangzhou that the four tribes came late. Chai Lingwu and Wei Tong, who first entered Cangzhou City, saw that the barbarians were defeated, so they joined in the encirclement and suppression of the remaining barbarian cavalry.
After that, they claimed to be the first ones. The Qin family also invited a reward after the king of Qi returned to Qingzhou. At that time, the king of Qi had just been driven back from Chang'an and was still in shock.
When they saw that Cangzhou City was recaptured, they were overjoyed that Chai Lingwu was appointed governor of Cangzhou, and Wei Tong was appointed governor of Cangzhou. They were in charge of Cangzhou for three years.
At that time, Lu Fei could understand the feelings of the king of Qi. The limited army and the barbarians suffered heavy losses. He could only rely on the local aristocratic tribes. That's what he thought. At that time, except Qingzhou, the other five states were controlled by four families.
"Hey, hey, I didn't expect you to have today!" Fast horse gallop, Luffy heart is very happy.
In the past three years, he dared not speak out. How could Cangzhou, which had been bought by thousands of soldiers, be handed over to such a grudging generation? Now that Xiao Ming orders, these two murders will finally be killed.
When he arrived at Cangzhou yamen, Lu Fei got off his horse and went into the Yamen. His voice was like a loud bell. He roared, "where is the history of Chai CI? Your Highness has orders. Come and listen to them now!"
There were only a few people in the Yamen. One of the clerks said in a low voice, "Huilu Xiaowei, Chai Cishi is not here! "
" no! Where is he then? " Lu Feibao's eyes opened angrily, "say quickly, you've delayed a family's event. Take care of your skin! "
the officer was scared out of his wits. Of course, he had seen Lu Fei for several days when he came to Cangzhou last time. Moreover, three years ago, the name of Lu Fei's ferocity had already spread. He knew all about it. When he was so scared, he could not say," the assassin and the captain went to the bichun garden in the city. "
" hum! Two killers Lu Fei stepped out of the yamen, mounted his horse, raised his whip, and roared, "come with me and surround the bichun garden for me! "
" yes! "The thirty iron riders roared in unison, and the horses' hooves roared.
The officer was relieved. Seeing Lu Fei's posture, he was afraid that something might have happened. He quickly left the government office and went to the governor's office.
In bichun garden, Chai Lingwu and Wei Tong were pushing cups to hand over cups. In their arms, there were two beautiful women. Opposite them was a businessman in gorgeous clothes.
"Chai Cishi, governor of the Wei capital, thanks for your help in this horse affair, we can successfully send 1000 war horses out of the city. This is a gift from the king of Wei. Please accept it!" The merchant raised his hand to thank him.
Chai Lingwu pushes the merchant to open the wooden box in front of him. It is full of gold ingots. Wei Tong sees it and looks at Chai Lingwu. They nod slightly.
Since they came into charge of Cangzhou, the smugglers in and out of Cangzhou have always been looking forward to them. They often need to send money to get through.
In just three years, they ransacked hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.The three people were drinking to each other when suddenly there was a sound of horse neighing. Then there was a woman's scream on the first floor of bichun garden, waiting for their reaction.
The door of the room was kicked open, and Luffy came in with his right hand on the handle of the knife.
"Captain Lu!" Both Chai Lingwu and Wei Tong were surprised.
When they came back to their senses, Wei Tong was not happy and said, "Captain Lu, why are you here? What do you mean? "
Chai Lingwu is also contemptuous. They are far away from Cangzhou and have no idea of the change of Qingzhou. They look down upon Lu Fei and his Mangfu because of their local identity.
Lu Fei sees the situation inside the house, with a table full of delicacies and delicate beauties lying in their arms.
He was annoyed at Wei Tong's perfunctory construction of the corps and his delay in farming. He was even more annoyed at the thought that his soldiers worked hard in the fields and ate only a few bowls of porridge.
But then he burst out laughing and said, "offend, offend. The day before yesterday he was ordered by the king of Qi, so he came to Cangzhou. When he learned that they were here, he came to announce the order."
Wei Tong saw that Lu Fei was smiling. He was proud of Lu Fei's position in the army. His family background was not so good. In the end, it was up to them.
He said faintly, "I don't know what your highness wants?"
"I dare not. Your Highness has made great contributions to the two of you guarding Cangzhou for three years. I'm here to reward you. I'm here to recite for you." Lu Fei is still smiling.
Chai Lingwu and Wei Tong look at each other and smile at each other.
The businessman opposite them sneered at the words. They were rich in personal wealth in Cangzhou. They were connected with the king of Wei and the barbarians. Now the king of Qi wants to reward them. It's ridiculous. They are the most useless of all the princes.
Lu Fei then read: "Cangzhou governor Chai Lingwu, Cangzhou governor Wei Tong listen to the order!"
Chai Lingwu and Wei Tong stood up and bowed, "I'm here! "
" Chai Lingwu, Wei Tong, as the governor of Cangzhou, didn't want to defend the border. Instead, he secretly colluded with merchants to smuggle war horses, enrich his own pocket, and disobeyed the emperor's army by ordering Yin to serve Yang... "
Reading this, Chai Lingwu and Wei Tong were shocked. Wei Tong immediately put his hand on the handle of the knife at his waist, but the soldiers behind Lu Fei immediately stepped forward and pressed them on the ground.
“…… From now on, he will be removed from the post of governor and governor, and sent to Qingzhou prison. If he disobeys, he will be executed immediately! "
"Lufei, you're talking nonsense. I don't believe it's your Highness's order. I'm going to see your highness!" Chai Lingwu roared.
Wei Tong threatened: "Lu Fei, half of the Cangzhou garrison is my Qin family's song. If you dare to touch me, you don't want to go out of Cangzhou City!"
As soon as his voice fell, the sound of horse hissing came to mind downstairs, followed by the noise of soldiers.
