Chapter 1572 is afraid of death

Luo Chong was walking slowly on the city wall. When he was about to reach the Xicheng Gate, a banner official came to him and saluted and reported: "Master Qianhu, you happened to be here. There was a team of people outside the Ximen. The person in charge said that he was the magistrate of Hengyuan County. He looked in a panic and asked us to open the city gate and let him in. You can tell at a glance that he was also here to take refuge."

"Hengyuan County was captured?"

Luo Chong tilted his head: "The efficiency of the thief is pretty good."

He quickly stepped up and came to the west gate. Looking down from the battlement, there was a carriage and several people carrying big bags.

The fat man, who was suspected to be the magistrate of Hengyuan, stood beside the carriage, looked up and still shouted: "I am the magistrate of Hengyuan, open the door quickly. Your hundreds of households recognize me, let me in quickly..."

If you only mention a hundred households, not thousands of households, you must know that the thousand households in Guangling Town are no longer surnamed Zhao.

Luo Chong asked above: "Hengyuan County has fallen?"

"ah?"

The magistrate of Hengyuan is only in his twenties, but he may have a little myopia and cannot see Luo Chong's specific appearance. In addition, Luo Chong was wearing casual clothes and could not judge his official position, so he asked loudly below: "I would like to ask, who are you?"

"On behalf of Qianhu, Luo Dong."

"Ah! Luo Qianhu, Lord Luo!"

The magistrate of Hengyuan bowed and bowed: "The lower official is Wei Guangliang, the magistrate of Hengyuan. He also asked the Qianhu to open the city gate and let me in."

"Don't worry, the rebels are still far away, and they haven't come here so quickly."

Luo Chong said slowly, "Besides, once the city gate is closed, there are many sandbags blocked below. It is not something you can open just by saying it. At least you have to ask clearly."

Qianhu is the fifth rank, and the magistrate is only the seventh rank. The largest upper-class county is only the sixth rank. Although it emphasizes culture and over military, there is a huge difference in rank, and there is no need for Luo Chong to coax him.

Wei Guangliang also knew these principles, so he took out a small bag from the carriage and shouted: "Master Qianhu, this is my official seal and official uniform, you can verify it."

“Don’t look at those.”

Luo Chong waved his hand: "Look for a stone, I can carve the exact same one. I just ask you, has Hengyuan County fallen?"

"It seems that there isn't..."

Wei Guangliang hesitated for a moment, but told the truth: "But it will be a matter of time sooner or later. There are only a few dozen old, weak and disabled soldiers in Hengyuan County, which cannot be stopped."

Luo Chong's tone became cold: "In other words, before you saw the thief, you left the people and ran away?"

"Well……"

Wei Guangliang was stunned for a moment, and it was hard to answer openly, but he said in his heart: We are all like this. Even though we know we will die, who will stay there stupidly?

People may not die. If officials fall into the hands of thieves, they will be cut into skins and cramps, and cut into pieces, they will die miserably.

When Wei Guangliang heard Luo Chong questioning himself like this, he felt a sudden slap in his heart: Could it be that he met a tough guy who couldn't stand a fearful person like me?

If so, I can only escape to the next ward.

Unexpectedly, Luo Chong said next: "Forget it, you are not a military officer, you can understand that you don't have the courage and blood. Open the door and let them in."

"ah!"

Wei Guangliang was overjoyed, bowed below and thanked loudly.

To be honest, if you run somewhere else, you can still make do with yourself and your family in the carriage, but the master and slave who can only walk will definitely not be able to hold on.

Little did he know that Luo Chong was not a strong person at all. Not to mention anything else, if he met a person who was more awesome than himself in chaos in the future, who would die generously? What he should do was of course to run away.

What kind of national justice is the people, if the Chaos Powerful Man can destroy a certain universe and rebuild everything, there will be no psychological burden at all.

Different heights, the criteria for judging right and wrong are naturally different.

There were not many sandbags piled up at the west gate. Soon, the city gate slowly opened. Wei Guangliang trotted all the way and came in with a heavy breath. The slaves drove the carriage behind him.

"Thank you, Lord Qianhu."

It was safe to come in. Wei Guangliang's face was covered in oil and suddenly became much more energetic.

Luo Chong waved his hand and just asked casually: "If you lose the county town like this, aren't you afraid of being punished in the future?"

"It should be fine."

Wei Guangliang pulled a towel from the frame of the car and wiped his face, laughing: "My father has some ways in the capital. Even if he can't save his official position, he can still save his life. Besides, I don't care about that anymore, so it's much better than dying at the hands of a thief."

"Okay, you take your family to the inn to rest first, and let's talk later."

Luo Chong heard the subtle moans of the female family in the car. He must have been in a curled position for too long. He suddenly moved and his legs cramped.

Wei Guangliang is obviously one of them. There are four women in the small carriage. He is so young that he cannot have such a big daughter. He must be all wives and concubines.

"Hey, hey, okay, okay."

Wei Guangliang responded from behind and shouted again: "The official is a little cleaner, and then go to visit the Qianhu Lord."

There is obviously a hint that you will give Luo Chong a gift in a while. Your life is in the hands of others. How can you not give me some benefits?

Wei Guangliang's arrival made Luo Chong change his mind slightly, and then called Ma Hanzi in front of him and ordered him: Ten veterans, forty new recruits, all riding horses, you lead them out to fight guerrillas!

Of course, Ma Hanzi could understand that if these people were trained well, they would be the scout brigade he was in charge in the future.

"In five days, bring at least 200 heads back."

Luo Chong set an indicator for him: "Don't think about killing good people and using the heads of ordinary people to deceive me. Is it true or false? Do you think I can tell?"

"I don't dare!"

Ma Hanzi has a straight body and a solemn expression: "The lives of subordinates belong to thousands of households. I will follow you to be a hero in the world, not a despicable villain!"

"That's right."

Luo Chong patted his shoulder: "It is better to practice your true skills than anything else."

Rumble...

Two hours later, Ma Hanzi led a team, and fifty people and sixty war horses ran out of Guangling Town through the West Gate. The ten extra horses would be used to carry people's heads or other harvests.

Luo Chong has long taught the most brilliant guerrilla tactics, it depends on how much he can understand and how much he can perform.

If you can really play well, just these fifty cavalry can make the so-called Yaotian Army so anxious that it is too troublesome.

In the afternoon, Luo Chong received Wei Guangliang, who had been bathed in his hall and changed into an official hat and uniform, and fled on the road. He was determined not to wear it.

As soon as he sat down, Wei Guangliang gave him five hundred taels of silver notes and said with a smile: "The officials know that this thing is really vulgar, but in extraordinary times, this thing is the lightest on the body. Please forgive me."

"It's not vulgar at all. It's much better than giving me jewelry, calligraphy, paintings, etc. You have to find channels to sell those things, so please!"

Luo Chong was even more unconventional. He refused to give gifts from others, but he also said, "It's just that you can give me five hundred taels when you pass by me and open the city gate. You are quite greedy."

"greedy?"

Seeing that Luo Chong was also of this kind of virtue, Wei Guangliang completely relaxed and waved his hand and said, "It's really not worth making too much when pointing at corruption and bribery. Fortunately, my father has money, so I don't need to spend all these things. Let's put it this way, it's not a secret in Guangling's territory anyway. My father has the right to do business, so I bought it as the magistrate."

Luo Chong nodded and pretended to be enlightened.

However, Wei Guangliang said again: "Don't look down on me, I'm also a scholar, quite talented."

"Come on."

Luo Chong curled his lips: "Let's find someone else to take the exam?"

"No, no, no!"

Wei Guangliang shook his head vigorously: "I really did the exam myself. I am not stupid and there is not much pressure to study. If I weren't playful, lustful and lazy, it wouldn't be a problem for another exam to take the Juren."

"Haha, OK, I believe such a real answer."

Luo Chong laughed. In fact, he had already asked Mayor Han for inquiries. Wei Guangliang was really not a fool. He had been in office for two years and made Hengyuan County very successful. Perhaps it was because his family had money and did not need to exploit the people too much.

However, the real political achievements of Mayor Han could not deny them.

Faced with death, he threw away the people and ran away. This matter is another matter. It is impossible to confuse whether to be afraid of death or not and be confused.

Next, Wei Guangliang felt that Luo Chong was quite easy-going and not difficult to get along with, so he asked tentatively: "Master Qianhu, ask, "Do you think you can keep this Guangling Town?"

This must be asked, and you must have a clear idea in your heart. If it really doesn’t work, you have to rest for a day or two and continue to go south and continue running.

"Stop running, stay here honestly."

Luo Chong understood what he meant and said, "Those thieves are not in my eyes at all. Not only can they be defended, but when the time comes, I will also send troops to encircle and suppress the rebellion directly."

"ah?"

Wei Guangliang was very surprised, but he had heard of his name of killing a hundred people, so he asked: "How many soldiers are there in Qianhu?"

"There are not many soldiers, but the essence."

Luo Chong was too lazy to talk and started asking for bribes: "Two thousand taels! Then, help you take back Hengyuan County. Don't say you have run away, just say that you have come to me to bring reinforcements and can still protect this official hat."

"this……"

Wei Guangliang looked stunned. He only opened his mouth. Of course, he didn't dare to believe such big words, but it was extremely tempting to him.

How could I bear to throw away an official hat I finally bought? If I can really keep it, it would be better. As for two thousand taels of silver, it is nothing, and my father will definitely be willing to pay the money.

If you lose money, you can make another profit. If you are removed from office, your future official career will be completely abandoned. The officials who have been removed want to re-activate it. Without the emperor's special approval, you can't even think about it. No matter how rich my father is, he will never be able to bribe the emperor.

"Go back and think about it."

Luo Chong patted the silver notes on the table and said with a smile: "I'm not for these things, but I think that your man is quite interesting (I want to say funny). Being a neighbor with me in Hengyuan is much better than those stupid guys."

"well."

Wei Guangliang took out his handkerchief, wiped his face habitually, and then told the truth: "Qianhu, I don't feel sorry for money, I'm just afraid of death. I'm not afraid of you making jokes, if you get stabbed, I'll call you for a long time. If you can't keep it here, I will pay my life..."

"I'm not afraid of death? Am I stupider than you?"

Luo Chong snorted: "If I weren't sure, I would stay here? I've taken so many refugees? What do you think I think?" r1148
