199. The poor and outrageous Changsha County (please subscribe for a monthly ticket)

The next day.

Guan Yu put on his silver armor and carried the official seal of the prefect, followed by hundreds of soldiers, and headed for the county barracks outside the city.

The tents of the camp were in ruins, the weapons were embroidered, and there were no soldiers practicing. Only a dozen soldiers were busy in the kitchen.

Seeing this scene, Guan Yu's eyes darkened.

Changsha County has jurisdiction over thirteen counties.

Now his location is Linxiang County, which is the seat of Changsha County.

In a county, the soldiers of the county were so disorganized that he, a general who had killed countless enemies on the battlefield, was dumbfounded.

The guards behind Guan Yu were also stunned.

This... is worse than their Yellow Turban Army!

Yes, after Guan Yu returned from Cao Cao, Liu Bei assigned him five hundred Yellow Turbans as personal guards. Of course, under Guan Yu's training, these five hundred personal guards improved a lot.

"Beat the drum, gather the generals!" Guan Yu calmed down, held back the anger that was about to burst out, and spoke calmly.

"promise!"

…

After a while, the drums sounded.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

On the martial arts field, Guan Yu is standing on horseback and wearing armor.

"Who, the weather is so bad that no one can sleep?"

"That's right!"

"Who are you?"

Not long after, soldiers in twos and threes, not wearing armor but wearing simple clothes, took a look and saw the tall and mighty general on the horse in the martial arts field.

After another quarter of an hour, a middle-aged general with a few soldiers stood in front of Guan Yu and said, "My Majesty, Zhou Feng, the Prime Minister of Changsha County, has met the general."

He has also inquired about his personal soldiers. Today's person... is their new governor, a general who takes the enemy general's head among all the troops, a partial general, Han Shoutinghou, Guan Yu, Guan Yunchang!

Guan Yu ignored him and said, "Where is Junzheng?"

When Zhou Feng saw this, he secretly said, "It's bitter."

At this time, a man stood up from behind Zhou Feng, bowed his hands and saluted, "Li Biao, the commander of the army, has met the general."

"Li Junzheng, please take a closer look at how many of the soldiers in this army have violated military laws, and what punishments should be imposed?"

Li Biao still bent over, cupped his hands, and did not dare to speak.

If you really list them one by one, you can tear down the entire Changsha County.

"Are you all dumb?" Guan Yu sneered, "Left and right!"

"exist!"

"I will take them all. The county magistrate Zhou Feng will be punished with fifty lashes! The remaining officers will be punished by five lashes if their rank is lower than that of others. The ordinary soldiers will be lashed with ten lashes!"

"promise!"

Zhou Feng and others were stunned and were about to persuade them.

Then I saw soldiers running out of several camps. Some came to gather here, and some started to run out.

"Escapers, behead them immediately!"

"promise!"

…

After a whirlwind of heads, followed by another burst of whippings and screams, the military camp... finally became quiet.

Guan Yu looked at the roster... The book recorded that there were two thousand county soldiers, but in fact... there were only more than seven hundred. The rest were all paid for free, and this Zhou Feng... was the son-in-law of the former prefect Zhang Yuan.

.

This Changsha County is rotten from top to bottom.

It will take a lot of effort for him to repair it!

That's all, Bento must have repaid Liu Jingzhou's kindness for taking him in.

…

Zhangfu.

Wang Can came to visit.

A man with gray hair laughed and welcomed Wang Can into the door. It was the former prefect, Zhang Yuan.

Wang Can just responded with a faint smile.

This Changsha County is...even more extreme than he thought.

…

You County is one of the counties under Changsha County.

"I heard that Zhang Yuan has been replaced." A sturdy young man looked at the middle-aged general who was standing next to him, "What does Uncle Han Sheng think?"

"That Guan Yu is not an incompetent person." Huang Zhong frowned, "But... the situation over there in Linxiang..."

"Hey, if he can handle it well, he will be famous all over the world!" The young man laughed.

"Guan Yu can't talk nonsense about strong righteousness." Huang Zhong shook his head, "Guan Yu can capture Yan Liang among thousands of troops, which shows his bravery; the feudal prince still does not forget his sworn brother, which shows his loyalty. Such a person, no matter whether he can handle Changsha

This matter from the county...they are all brave generals who are famous in the world."

"Why is Uncle Han Sheng so serious?" Liu Pan, courtesy name, Yijian.

"If he comes to Changsha, he can organize the military and recuperate the people's livelihood. This will be a blessing to the common people."

"Isn't Zhongxuan here too?"

Huang Zhong sighed, even though he came here with a lot of talent, but the situation in Changsha County is so bad... it would be good if he didn't get so angry that he gave up his job.

Yes, he felt, even if he went...

I will also be very angry.

But he and Liu Pan had already reported the situation in Changsha County to Liu Biao... However, Liu Biao had no control at all. In the first few years after Liu Biao came, Liu Pan and he were able to guard You County, which was already an exchange of interests.

Now, the power in Liu Biao's hands was slowly concentrated, and with sufficient troops, he changed the position of Changsha governor, and these aristocratic families had no way to object.

"I hope everything goes well for them." Huang Zhong sighed.

Liu Pan smiled, then put on his armor and put on his weapon, "I'll go for a spin outside!"

…

It's night.

Guan Yu and Wang Can met at the Prefect's Mansion.

Neither of them knew how to speak. Seeing each other's appearance, they smiled bitterly in unison, and then shook their heads.

"General, let's talk first." Wang Can sighed.

"I went to the barracks. There were two thousand soldiers on the roster, but in fact they were only seven hundred. They were all old, weak, sick and disabled..." Guan Yu shook his head, "Today, I have whipped everyone in the barracks. It can be considered a little punishment."

It’s been straightened out a lot.”

"Hiss... that Zhou Feng is Zhang Yuan's son-in-law." Wang Can gritted his teeth, "Can went to Zhang's mansion. The mansion is as luxurious as the imperial palace!"

With a bang, Guan Yu slapped the table, "This Liu Jingzhou really gave us a hard job!"

"That's right." Wang Can was helpless, "Can had no choice but to make excuses in the Zhang Mansion. After getting all kinds of account books from the government office, he pretended to be drunk and was able to escape... When he came back, he saw all kinds of account books. In this government office,

Deficits after deficits!”

Guan Yu's face also darkened, "Since the two of us entered Changsha County, the people we saw along the way were not rich. This shows that his administration is harsh. This Zhang Yuan... is actually benefiting himself at the expense of the people!"

Wang Can nodded, "Fortunately... Can and A Chu compiled mathematics textbooks, which contained knowledge taught by laymen."

"A layman? A layman who grows flowers?"

"yes."

Guan Yu was silent, "What's the difference?"

"Historically, all the accounts recorded over the years, including receipts and expenditures, are in the same book." Wang Can explained, "But before that, I helped A Chu revise their mathematics textbook... There is a chapter in it, which is about
