Chapter 28: Things are not impossible

"Du Tou, my husband will call you to the lobby to discuss matters." A personal soldier ran to Zheng Zhi quickly.

Zheng Zhi nodded and answered, knowing in his heart that Xiao Zhong’s husband was going to convene all the officers above the head to discuss the matter, and the notice was sent to his subordinates to send the letter.

When Zheng Zhi walked into the lobby, forty or fifty people had gathered in the hall. It was obvious that everyone had arrived. Zheng Zhi also arrived in front of the hall and stood next to the desk in the hall. As the head of the personal soldiers, Zheng Zhi did not need to queue up with everyone in such an occasion, but stood directly in front of the seat of Zhong Shidao.

The people had arrived, and Zhong Shidao slowly walked out and sat down on the chair inside the table. At this time, forty or fifty officers stood in the hall, and Zheng Zhi, who was standing next to him with a tiger-backed and bear-backed waist.

"Silent!" As Zheng Zhi said something, the whole hall immediately became silent.

"Today I'm asking you to come, Huayin County has sent documents to me, Weizhou, and I want to send troops to suppress bandits." Zhong Shidao directly said what we are going to discuss today.

"Sir, do you want us to suppress the Shaohua Mountain?" asked the commander of the next battalion in the hall.

"It was Shaohua Mountain in Huayin County. The document said that after several suppression, they all returned in vain. Instead, the thiefs in Shaohua Mountain were even more imposing. This time, they paid 5,000 guan to invite someone. Do you think they would go?" asked Master Zhong.

When Zheng Zhi heard about Shaohua Mountain, he seemed to be familiar with it. It seemed that he had heard Shi Jin talk about Shaohua Mountain before. Shaohua Mountain was also related to Shi Jin. There was a village leader named Zhu Wu on the mountain. Zheng Zhi knew that Zhu Wu, the famous Shenji Military Advisor Zhu Wu in Water Margin. I still remember Shi Jin and said that the two of them, but Zheng Zhi didn't remember it at this time.

"Five thousand guan? My husband, this is too little. I heard that the thief leaders in Huayin had offered rewards of 3,000 guan, but this time our Weizhou army only produced 5,000 guan." The battalion commander said again. Five thousand guan is 5,000 guan, which sounds like a lot, but for an army, this little money is really nothing.

"Zheng Zhi, tell me." After hearing the commander's words, Zhong Shidao asked Zheng Zhidao again. Obviously, this kind of teacher is worthy of Zheng Zhi's wisdom.

Zheng Zhi thought that he came here just to listen to everyone's discussions and stand next to Master Zhong to act as a storefront. Master Zhong suddenly asked himself, but Zheng Zhi didn't react for a while.

"This... Lord Husband, money and grain are easy to talk about. If you ask for a lot of money and want to fight the army in Weizhou, you must be able to afford the price. I think Huayin has a clear idea and said 5,000 guan. I think they know that my husband has always been easy to talk to. But as long as they speak out, they will definitely get it together. The money and grain matter is not the point." Zheng Zhi said this and stopped for a moment, and it was also because Zheng Zhi was still organizing language in his mind.

"Oh, then what's the point?" Mr. Zhong asked again.

"If we want to talk about the key points, it must be whether we should be in charge of this matter at this time. In less than a month, the northwest prefectures will have to review it. At this time, we will go to Huayin, and it will take twenty days to go back and forth. If we suppress the bandits, the time will inevitably be rushed. If we do not achieve the full results, wouldn't it be a loss for my husband?" Zheng Zhi analyzed that if we really went to Huayin to suppress the bandits, the bandits would be suppressed for up to ten days. It would be okay to wipe out Zhu Wu, Shaohuashan, if it could not be solved for a while, and if we had to work together, it would be really not worth the loss.

"Well, Zheng Zhi, your idea coincides with someone. Time is too hasty. This time, the review of the matter is very important. Let's talk about it later. When you go back, you will definitely practice the part carefully. You will be able to do it in twenty days." Mr. Zhong said.

In fact, Zheng Zhi did not expect that the focus in Master Zhong’s mind was somewhat different from what Zheng Zhi said. How much money is spent in Huayin County, of course, the better. In fact, the place where you can really get a lot of money is the thief village in Shaohua Mountain. If you break the thief village, you will definitely get a lot of money, which is definitely not a few thousand guan. This kind of Master is hesitation between money and the colonel.

In the end, Zhong Shidao still felt that the university was more important. This university was directly related to the important assessment of whether Zhong Shidao could be promoted. For Zhong Shidao, it was also an exam related to his own political future.

In the evening, Zheng Zhi took Shi Jin back home. At this time, Wang Jin could barely get out of bed and walk around, sitting on the yard to guide Zheng Zhi and Shi Jin to practice this domineering shooting technique.

At this time, Zheng Zhi had basically learned all the marksmanship and was in the stage of integrating them. What you need most at this time is to practice constantly and practice over and over again. All Zheng Zhi usually practices marksmanship in Jingluo Mansion after tying Mao during the day.

When he was resting, Zheng Zhi told Shi Jin about the news he had heard in the Jingliu Mansion recently. Shi Jin was shocked when he heard that this little husband was going to attack Shaohua Mountain. The three leaders on Shaohua Mountain were very familiar with Shi Jin. Shi Jin could be regarded as having received the favor of Zhu Wu. Zhu Wu even brought Shi Jin to the end, but Shi Jin refused because he wanted to find his master.

Fortunately, Zheng Zhi said that Xiao Zhong’s husband did not put this matter temporarily, and he felt relieved. Shi Jin also had a rough understanding of the imperial guards in Weizhou these days. Zhu Wu and the other two had five or six hundred minions, and they would not be opponents. Even if there was a village defense, they would not be safe.

Later, Lu Da came again. In recent days, Lu Da often came to find Zheng Zhi and Shi Jin. It was because Lu Da had no friends in Weizhou and had no family. So he came to find the two brothers without any trouble.

The three of them came to the Pan Family Restaurant together, and they happened to meet the detective Radar and several colleagues who were having a drink at the Pan Family Restaurant. The few of them were polite to each other and sat directly on a table.

Zheng Zhi now knows that the radar has now become a head-in-chief. He was originally a street patrol constable, but he jumped into a head-in-chief. I think this radar has cost a lot of money.

After chatting, Zheng Zhi learned that the radar had just returned from the city today. A major case recently occurred in Weizhou. A large family in Pingliang in the west was slaughtered. The radar has been investigating the matter recently.

The administrative regions of the Song Dynasty were divided into the largest roads, equivalent to the current province, and then the prefectures, which were larger than the current prefecture-level cities, and then the county. Weizhou was under the rule of Qinfeng Road.

However, the administrative yamen of the Song Dynasty were complicated. In a region, there were many yamen in charge, including the governing government, the prefecture, the transfer commissioner, the prosecutor, the prosecutor, etc. The interweaving rights also led to many inconveniences in the Song Dynasty's governance. Just like the governing government, it had the power to control the military and political power of a place, but the prefect (the prefect) also had this right. The most direct problem was that when there were interests, they would compete for each other and shirke each other when there were troubles.

The complex ruling system like the Song Dynasty was mainly to prevent the warlord problems such as the Sui and Tang Dynasties. The Tang Dynasty's Jiedu system and a chief official's summary of the ownership of the place were also an important reason for the Anshi Rebellion.

Obviously, this criminal case was handled by the prefect and the Criminal Department. However, in theory, the Jingliufu also has the right to deal with criminal cases.

Halfway through the drinks, Radar stammered and said: "Official, Luti, the case of extermination has been almost confirmed, but the thief has been unable to capture it for a long time. This..."

After hearing this, Zheng Zhi knew that Radar wanted to ask him and Luda to help catch the thief directly, so he asked, "Who did it?"

"Cao Qi, Pingliang, is a man with great martial arts skills and dozens of minions under his command, which is really difficult to deal with. This time, we mobilized Pingliang, Weizhou, and several nearby counties, and more than 200 constables, but they still returned in vain and lost many people." Seeing Zheng Zhi's question, Radar quickly explained the situation.

"Haha... The Sa family has never heard of Cao Qi. You two hundred people can't beat dozens of others. It's really cowardly." After hearing this, Lu Da laughed. It's just that Lu Da's temperament is like this.

"Titha said that, Cao Qi was so powerful that he was so powerful that he killed dozens of people with his subordinates, but did not run away. He lived in a village in the countryside. He got countless money and was happy every day. The prefect had already issued a death order and ordered me to be arrested within a month. Alas... I was really desperate. The captain who just got was afraid he would hand over someone to hand him over." Radar looked helpless. He had just spent a lot of silver to get, and this happened before he could sit in a warm place.

"This matter is the matter of your magistrate's office. The Sa Family Minister will not take care of it too much. Even if you have to take care of it, your magistrate will come to talk to Xiaozhong's husband." Lu Da also understood the meaning of this radar, and spoke directly, which was an attitude that had nothing to do with me.

However, it is also about the idea. Such things must be said by the prefect and Xiaozhong Gong. This is what Master Zhong wants. The Jingluo Mansion and the prefect have always been mutually restrained. The Jingluo Mansion needs money and food, and some of them have to find the prefect's yamen. Therefore, the Jingluo Mansion also needs to hold the braids of the prefect's yamen in some matters.

After hearing Lu Da’s words, Rada’s expression became even more helpless. He didn’t understand these things. He just hoped that Zheng Zhi would help him to keep his position as the captain.

Zheng Zhi thought for a while and said, "It's not impossible to do anything."
