The tall city gate is open, like a ferocious beast opening its bloody mouth, waiting for prey to enter.
The armored men on both sides are the monster's fangs, used for chewing and crushing raw meat.
He Ananda stood under the city gate and raised his head. The city gate was covered with heads.
The heads were flying in the wind, and they were so densely packed that it was hard to count how many there were.
Among them were gray-haired old men, women stained with blood, and even half-grown children.
Their faces were numb, without joy or sorrow, they just stared silently at this man-eating world, waiting for its destruction.
"He Gong."
The clerk at the door looked at him with an uneasy expression.
He Ananda glanced at him and asked, "Are these the bandits that the county captain is attacking?"
The clerk raised his head and looked at the rows of heads. His face was ugly and he said, "They are bandits from outside the city."
"Well, that's it."
He Ananda said in a very stiff tone.
The clerk didn't dare to speak. He Ananda had just been promoted to the county tour leader, responsible for checking for thieves.
Then, dozens of thieves appeared in Cheng'an, and their heads were hung all over the city walls. It was a serious case of mass robberies.
He knew that Mr. He must be in a bad mood at this moment.
A group of dozens of thieves appeared outside the capital county. This is not the performance of the local sheriff. This is a disaster.
Mr. He hadn't warmed up the place he had just sat down, so he was probably about to get up and leave.
It's getting dark.
He Ananda dragged his embarrassed body back home with a sad face.
Several servants hurried forward, but He Ananda just waved his hand, ignored them, and went directly into the study.
Sitting in the study, he sighed again.
I thought that with the support of noble people, I could make up for the county captain's position with my merits, but I didn't expect that in the end, I was just wandering around. If it was just a wandering, that's it, and I met such a county captain.
The county captain had only been here four or five days, but the trouble he had caused was enough to cost He Anan his life.
This county captain, who was born in the Bohai Gao family, is stupid and bad!!
He always tries to put gold in his face, but he makes no sense. How can a direct descendant of the Gao family come here to be a mere ninth-rank official?
Absolutely ridiculous!!
A flash of anger flashed in his eyes, and he slammed the book beside him to the ground.
Suddenly a dark shadow flashed by the window.
He Anan shuddered, suddenly took off the sword on the wall, and pointed it outside, "Who?!"
There is no sound outside.
"Squeak~~"
The door was pushed open.
From the shadows, a rickety old man walked in.
He Ananda didn't speak, just stared at the other person coldly.
When the rickety man entered the door, he slowly straightened up and stretched his whole body.
He raised his head and looked at He Ananda.
He Ananda put away his sword, walked quickly to the door, and closed the door.
"Are you crazy?! How dare you come to my house?!"
he questioned.
At this moment, standing in front of He Ananda was Taozi's old acquaintance, the shopkeeper Wang Fu.
Wang Fu looks completely different from before, his face shape has changed, and he has lost a lot of weight in a short period of time.
The messy hair and beard made him almost look like a different person.
"Mr. He, don't worry, no one will see me."
"I am already a dead person. Even if someone sees me, it doesn't matter."
He Ananda was very angry, but did not dare to vent, "You should not come to my place no matter what!!"
Wang Fu's face was full of helplessness, "There is a madman outside the city leading an army of hundreds of people to kill people randomly."
"If I hadn't dodged in time, I would have been caught and beheaded."
"Are you all crazy?"
He Anan did not speak, his face was gloomy, and he looked directly at Wang Fu, "I kept saying that I was willing to die for the general, but now I come to me in order to live, trying to expose me, and it will ruin a big thing."
"Is there a more hateful villain in the world than you?"
Wang Fu's face was calm. He sat on the Xiaohu bed beside him and looked up at He Ananda.
"I'm not afraid of death, I would have died a long time ago."
"I only continue to stay here to fulfill the general's order."
He Ananda sat in front of him and said, "I saw him. He is in the county government office and Sanliyuan."
"Liu Taozi? No, he is not the most important now. Originally, the important thing was Liu Taozhi, but now it seems that Liu Taozhi doesn't care about his son at all and only took away his wife."
"Then Liu Taozi will not be that great to us."
"Then why don't you die?"
Wang Fu said calmly: "Someone else will handle Liu Taozi's affairs. My target is Gao Su."
"I need your help. I want his specific whereabouts."
He Ananda stared in surprise and exclaimed.
"Ha, you want Gao Su's whereabouts? Can I ask him for you?"
"I think you are crazy. So you can get Gao Su's whereabouts if you want?"
"Not to mention me, even that new madman doesn't deserve to meet Gao Su. The people we deal with are all Gao Su's domestic slaves!"
"Besides, there are more soldiers responsible for protecting him inside and outside the county government than there are county soldiers!"
"No one knows where Gao Su is or where he will come!"
After hearing what the other party said, Wang Fu smiled.
"That's why I came to find you. Just give me a ride. I've been my colleague for many years, haven't you always been expecting me to die?"
"You can find a way, right?"
"farmer."
The next day.
County government office, west backyard.
Gao Xun stood in the room, gently stroking the blood-stained armor in front of him with a gentle expression.
"This armor has followed me in battles for many years."
He suddenly looked at He Ananda beside him, his eyes full of arrogance, "But the thieves here are really vulnerable!"
"I charged into the bandits, slashing left and right, but not a single enemy was able to touch my armor!"
He Ananda stood beside him, his head lowered, his eyes extremely bright.
"Gaogong Shenwu is unmatched by anyone!"
When Gao Xun heard this, he couldn't help laughing loudly.
"To be honest, since I was a child, I have been said to have the legacy of a clan uncle!"
"My uncle has been compared to Xiang Ji. He has a peerless horse and is invincible in the world! I have also practiced martial arts since I was a child and imitated his behavior!"
"I am nineteen years old, but in Bohai, I can no longer find an opponent. No matter what kind of warrior they are, they can't survive a round in my hands!"
He Ananda nodded, "I have heard that Duke Gao is brave and invincible."
"We in Cheng'an County are also martial artists. The county captain is so brave that he will definitely be admired by everyone above and below him."
Gao Xun was stunned for a moment, then looked at He Ananda.
"What's your job in the county?"
"Wandering."
"For what?"
"The chief arrests, patrols and arrests."
"Well, then you must have good men under your command, right?"
"That's natural. This is an important place in the capital, and the people on my left and right are all brave men."
Gao Xun's eyes lit up, "Okay! Okay! Call these good guys over and compete with me in martial arts. If you can beat me, I'll reward you with a thousand coins!"
"Gao Gong, you are invincible in the world. Although the people around me have some martial arts skills, they are not enough to compete with you."
"I'm afraid it's inappropriate."
"No problem!! Just find it for me!"
"If you don't obey, I will punish you!!"
"only."
Gao Xun nodded happily and looked at him approvingly, "You are a good official. Don't imitate that person named Cao."
"Definitely not."
“Eat meat today!!”
The food official arrived at the inner courtyard with delicious food and shouted, and everyone stood up with smiles on their faces.
After everyone received the food, they all sat down. Zhang Li ordered: "Send some to the outer courtyard as well."
"only."
Everyone was busy, talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was much better than before.
Facts have proven that a qualified commander has a huge impact on the whole.
When He Xingseng was on duty, the government affairs were in chaos and the distribution was unfair. Whether it was casual officials or candidates, they were all exhausted and half dead. It can be said that "one general is incompetent and three armies are exhausted."
Zhang Li is different from him. Zhang Li knows how to assign errands, and at the same time, he will personally take on the most dangerous and important tasks.
The situation in Sanliyuan suddenly improved. Zhang Li would not deprive everyone of their food, nor would he condone the "lazy fishermen" who wanted to flatter him. Now everyone truly recognized this official.
Official Zhang was sitting in the middle of the crowd, surrounded by people, with a smile on his face.
"Starting from today, the county government will provide a meal of meat every five days, as well as vegetables and fruits. The county government has sent people to contact the big households in the county to make regular purchases."
"Thank you Mr. Zhang!"
"What do you want to thank me for? How can I have such ability? You have to be the county magistrate. The county magistrate deserves to be the county magistrate. This was all his original arrangement, but it has only been implemented now."
The clerk smiled and said: "We have to thank Mr. Zhang. If he were still the same person, how could this meat and vegetables fall into our mouths? Isn't it possible that he sold them all?"
Zhang Li smiled and shook his head.
"You people"
