Chapter 1173: Reward for Meritorious Service
Taizhou Governor Tan Lun's secret visit to Jingnan and Taiping this time can be said to have gained nothing, but it can also be said to have gained a lot.
There was no gain, because during this unannounced visit, Zhu Ping'an was not found to have killed the good and risked the merit.
There is a lot of gain, and it is also because of this unannounced visit that Zhu Ping'an did not find that Zhu Ping'an had the behavior of killing and risking merit. This further confirms the authenticity of Zhu Ping'an's monstrous feat of defending Jingnan and winning 795 Japanese Chiefs, and recovering Taiping and obtaining 29 Japanese Chiefs. Zhu Ping'an's great achievements are real, and the losses of the Taizhou capital this time have been reduced by nearly half, and two great achievements have been added. In this way, his political career has been preserved. Wouldn't that be a rewarding one!
After Tan Lun and his entourage returned to the capital of Taizhou, they received a report from the people below that Jingnan County had sent the heads of more than 800 Japanese robbers to the Taizhou Mansion, and also sent two war report documents stamped with the seal of Jingnan Zhixian County, an official document requesting tax reduction and exemption, and a request for a silver reward for the first meritorious service.
After Tan Lun received the news, he took Zuo Zhen without saying a word and went to inspect the head of the Japanese sent by Jingnan.
After receiving the heads of the Japanese invaders sent by Jingnan, the government officials were worried about where to store them, and finally placed them in the courtyard outside the prison, which was densely packed with a courtyard.
There is not much ground in the courtyard where the head of the widow can put his feet.
As soon as anyone enters the courtyard and sees this scene, goosebumps all over their bodies will rise. If you are timid, you probably have weak legs.
Tan Lun, the prefect of Taizhou, first entered the courtyard, and when he saw the head of the Japanese in this courtyard, he couldn't help but be excited, and took a deep breath before recovering his calm and calm appearance, and slowly walked into the courtyard.
Zuo Zhen, who was behind Tan Lun, even though he was born in the army, couldn't help but get goosebumps at this moment.
The two servants of the government are in the courtyard to check the head of the wolf, each holding a head of the wolf, the head still retains the hideous appearance of the wolf before death, the head is not careful, just like looking at antiques, carefully look at the hideous head in the hand, check the hairstyle, hair stubble, traces, teeth, ears and other facial features.
In addition to the two servants of the government in the courtyard, there are five officials of the government to help the servants, and there is also a high-spirited man in the clothes of the head of the Jingnan County Ya catcher, who looks five big and three thick, and a standard rough man, but his eyes are very sharp, and he pays attention to the head of the Japanese in the courtyard without blinking, as well as everyone who comes into contact with the head of the Japanese king.
"I've seen Fuzun."
The officials in the courtyard were the first to see Tan Lun and his party, and they hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
"I've seen Fuzun."
The two servants listened to the salute, and only then did they realize that the prefect Tan Lun was coming, and hurriedly followed the salute.
The two of them were in a hurry to salute, and when they saluted, they were still holding the head of the Japanese who had just looked at it in their hands, so I won't talk about this picture.
The head catcher of the Jingnan County Ya also followed suit.
"Excuse me, it's important to check the head, there's nothing to be courteous." Tan Lun smiled and waved his hand, signaling to continue to inspect the head.
As a result, Qi Zuo and the others devoted themselves to the inspection of the head again. More than 800 heads are not a small number, they have been inspecting for more than half an hour, and they have only checked less than 100 heads.
"General Zuo, look at the heads of these widows, what's the problem?" Tan Lun also took Zuo Zhen and the others to inspect the head of the Japanese in the courtyard, and after about the tea time, Tan Lun asked Zuo Zhen.
"Lord Hui, the last general carefully inspected the ten Japanese heads in this vicinity, of which there are three real Japanese heads, and the remaining seven are fake Japanese heads, all of them are in the prime of their thirties and forties, and they have not found any problems."
Zuo Zhen was squatting down to inspect the head of the Japanese Kou, listened to Tan Lun's question, took his eyes away from the head of the Japanese Kou, got up and hugged his fists and replied.
Zuo Zhen is no stranger to the Japanese Invaders, before being transferred to Taizhou Mansion, he once served as the general flag and deputy general in Ningbo Mansion, and fought against the Japanese Invaders many times, and the head of the Japanese Invaders has also handled more than ten pieces, and he knows more about the real and false Wolves than ordinary people.
After he entered the courtyard, he carefully inspected the heads of the ten Japanese Wokou, three of the ten Japanese Kou heads are real Japanese and seven are fake Japanese Wokes, whether it is a real Japanese or a fake Japanese There is no problem, there is no need to say that the real Japanese are very different from the people of the Ming Dynasty, and they cannot be faked, as for the hair stubble on the top of the head of the seven fake Japanese Woke, there are traces of several months, and it is not hastily shaved off, so naturally it is impossible to kill the good and take the merits.
"Hmph, of course there can't be a problem, these heads of the Japanese are all cut off from the heads of the Japanese invaders, what can be the problem."
Jing Nan, who had been paying attention to the movements of everyone in the yard next to him, couldn't help but snort at this moment, and muttered dissatisfiedly. These Japanese heads were all brought by Gongzi to fight and kill all of us, but I didn't expect to be suspected of having a problem. Questions? What's wrong with the head of the pirate that we cut off with our own hands?!
Although he muttered, he was five big and three thick, and his voice was loud, even if he muttered, he could hear it clearly in the yard.
"What a man, who are you?"
Hearing the man's muttering, Tan Lun, the prefect of Taizhou, noticed Jingnan, the head catcher who escorted the head and never left an inch, this person was five big and three thick, high-spirited and burly, and his muscular clothes were bulging, and a fierce spirit overflowed with words, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion and asked with interest.
"Back to my lord, the villain is Liu Dadao, the head catcher of Jingnan County, and he is my son-in-law, no, it is the county master who ordered me to escort the head to the government to report his merits and ask for a reward." The man replied with his fists clenched, his voice very loud.
"Since the head has been delivered, why are you still here if you don't go down to rest?" Zuo Zhen asked.
"Before I came, the county magistrate of my family carefully told me not to leave the heads of these widows, until the acceptance and inspection of the government are completed, and the acceptance note is received, and the villain can leave the head of the widows."
Liu Dadao replied with a loud voice.
"Never leave an inch, hehe, so many Japanese heads, you have been guarding every inch since you came to the present?" Zuo Zhen asked.
"Of course."
Liu Dadao nodded vigorously, along the way, no matter eating, drinking, Lazar or sleeping, he guaranteed that the head of the Japanese was within his line of sight.
"Guarding the heads of these widows every step of the way, aren't you afraid?" Zuo Zhen asked.
"Scared? Hahaha, when these widows are alive, I am not afraid, and I am still afraid of death?! Even if they are afraid, they are afraid of me. Of the ten heads you just accepted, I cut them all by hand. ”
Liu Dadao grinned, a mouthful of white teeth glistening in the sun, and stretched out his finger to point at the head of the widow at Zuo Zhen's feet.
