Chapter 31: Who Meets Whom?
Several townships in Linggu County were burned to death, not to mention the heavy casualties.
There were even thousands of people who were plundered up the mountain by the witch barbarians.
Coupled with the fact that the people were displaced and scattered, it is said that the county order was reported to the government, and the population of the entire Linggu County was reduced by nearly half this time.
The loss of other property and so on is incalculable
Now that I have arrived in Linggu County, I see that although there are many mountains, there are also a large number of fields, and they are all paddy fields, growing rice.
This is different from Liangzhou, Yuzhou, where chestnut rice is mostly grown, and although rice is planted, it is not a staple food.
Now seeing so much rice, Wang Zhenling is also happy to see it.
After all, in his previous life, a person who was used to eating rice ate those chestnut rice every day, but he was not used to it.
However, countless paddy fields were destroyed, and many pavilions were burned to the ground.
Along the way, there were people crying and mourning everywhere.
But it was a tragic scene after the catastrophe
"This disaster in the world, to put it mildly, is still the most tragic man-made disaster."
Wang Zhenling couldn't help but sigh lightly in his heart.
As for those Ruan Jing and the others, they were already full of righteous indignation, eager to catch up with those witches, snatch those people back, and kill all these witches
Although the county seat of Linggu County is not too large, it is a fairly regular county seat.
And unlike the rammed earth walls in the interior, the walls here are built of stone.
Because this place is mountainous and there are many stones, it is made of local materials.
Although the city is not too big, it is extremely strong and has an impressive defense.
Originally, it is said that it was a military fort built by the army of Wuman in Lingzhou in the south.
It is precisely because of this that this county seat has not been broken, otherwise, the deaths and injuries in the entire Linggu County will be even more severe
The origin of Linggu County is said to be because of Linggu Mountain
It is said that the imperial army captured the Wuman village in Linggu Mountain and seized a spiritual drum, which is rumored to be an ancient treasure.
Therefore, in order to commemorate this event, the mountain was renamed Linggu Mountain.
Later, this place was established as a county, and this place was called Linggu County.
The jurisdiction of Linggu County is very large, more than half of that of Danling County, and twice as large as Xiahe County.
However, the population is only about 60,000, the size of an ordinary county in the interior, and most of them live near the plains.
And those mountainous areas are mostly inhabited by witches.
When Yin Sheng took office, all the county officials of the entire Linggu County came out to greet him.
Even Yin Shengzhi saw a few witch barbarians wearing feathers and animal skins.
When I asked, I found out that these were all familiar barbarians who had begun to learn the Han life model and pay taxes for the imperial court.
It is said that these are all barbarians who volunteered to be the people because of the moralization of a good official Feng County Decree decades ago.
And these familiar barbarians, this time they were also very miserable by those barbarians, and they were also full of hatred for those barbarians
Wang Zhenling was initially handed over to the current Linggu County Commander, and Wang Zhenling was originally a little worried that the Linggu County Commander would not easily hand over the seal
After all, the authority of the imperial court is not good now, and once he hands over the seal, it is difficult for him to move elsewhere as an official.
Therefore, Wang Zhenling has made all kinds of preparations.
However, to Wang Zhenling's expectation, when Wang Zhenling came to hand over the big seal, the Linggu county commander was actually busy handing over the county seal to Wang Zhenling, and then hurriedly left with his subordinates.
"Could it be that this county magistrate has lost too much money in office, so he shouldn't leave office in a hurry."
Wang Zhenling was puzzled, because in the Dacheng court, local officials had great power.
has considerable financial power and military power, so there is no such thing as Wang Zhenling's previous life, when the transfer was empty, there was no such thing.
Therefore, this county magistrate should not be in such a hurry to leave office in a panic
It is estimated that it was also this time that Wu Man went down the mountain, which scared the county commander miserably
In this world, although there are many capable ministers and good officials who are loyal to their duties, most of the officials are also useless people who are vegetarian in the corpse position.
Look at the official atmosphere over the entire Linggu County court in the sky, so thin that it is not formed.
I couldn't help but shake my head again and again.
Obviously, it is estimated that this county magistrate is one of them
The official morale of a county is so bleak, and I don't know what this county magistrate did.
What disappointed Wang Zhenling even more was that when he came to Linggu, he had already returned the scepter to Yang Fu, originally thinking that when he came to Linggu County, he had the luck of a county, which was enough to suppress this and seal.
However, now that Linggu County's luck is so weak, Mo said that he has cultivated, and it is used to suppress the Xia and Yin Du
This made Wang Zhenling disappointed in his heart, and he couldn't help but scold these former county magistrates for being waste
Although there are many followers in Dacheng, there are many such incompetent people
It's just that even if he is incompetent, how can he corrupt the luck of a county to such a point
I'm afraid that this government and county court no longer have any prestige among the people
Wang Zhenling was still thinking about these in his heart, and he immediately knew what the reason was.
I heard a few laughs, and several carriages came side by side.
"The new county gentleman took office, why don't you hurry up and meet my head of the Bai family"
"And my Li family master"
"And my bear family master"
Immediately, I saw the county officials who originally welcomed Wang Zhenling, and when they saw these three carriages coming, they all abandoned Wang Zhenling, walked over, and bowed down in front of the three carriages.
The pattern of each county is similar, and the entrance of the county court is vast, which is equivalent to a small school field.
At this time, not only the officials and others, but also many people in the city gathered to watch the excitement.
"It's so majestic, it's so bad that it is to visit the Assassin County Guard, and it is only after the Assassin County Guard gets off the car that all the officials will bow down and give a salute.
And now, these officials, big and small, are afraid of these three families like tigers, and they haven't seen anyone yet, so they bow down to the carriage, and they are really majestic."
Wang Zhenling looked at this scene with a slight sneer on the corner of his mouth.
And Ruan Jing, Du Ming, Wang Hu and others behind Wang Zhenling were already furious, and reached out and pressed the hilt of the sword.
The Lord humiliated his ministers to death
They followed Wang Zhenling, and Wang Zhenling was equivalent to their lord.
And now that Wang Zhenling is the county commander, these county officials do not worship Wang Zhenling, but go to worship the three family heads, which is clearly not to put Wang Zhenling in their eyes
Even, these three family heads came at such a time, I am afraid that they deliberately came to the face of the king's true spirit.
For this piece of war, there were three carriages over there, but there was a loud shout, "The new county commander, don't hurry up and come over to meet the three family heads"
But the so-called heads of the three families never came out of the car, and actually asked Wang Zhenling to go over to meet like other county officials.
Is it tolerable or intolerable?
