Chapter 3 East Gate Five The servants of the yamen are all bullying the weak and afraid of the hard.
Seeing that Lin Xian Ling really shook his official authority, his arrogance was a lot shorter.
But just by the county magistrate and a half-sized boy blindly tossing, the last way to live for everyone was gone, and it was really unwilling.
After making eye contact with each other for a long time, someone finally suggested, "My lord has the heart to protect my family, and I am grateful."
But if you want to defend Guantao County, my subordinates think that we are still a little weaker."
"How long can you keep it.
The way out has been cut off, and the county has no other choice" Lin Xian Ling glanced at the speaker, and found that it was Li Laojiu, the most obedient cell leader in the yamen, and explained in a lower tone.
"Do you know how long I have to wait before I can bring reinforcements," Li Laojiu pursed his lips a few more times and asked with a wince.
Lin Xian Ling sighed in his heart when he was asked, groaned for a while, and replied calmly, "Maybe three days is enough."
The treasure of Wuyang County's county shou yuan has always had some friendship with this county, and he will not see death without help.
Wei Zheng, the chief secretary under his command, Wei Xuancheng is also known for being resourceful and decisive, and he will definitely help the county guard get an idea as soon as possible."
These words can be said to everyone to be courageous, but in fact, Lin Xianling himself doesn't believe it.
At present, the situation in Wuyang, Qinghe, and Jijun is very complicated.
Some counties and counties have already shown their banners in response to Yang Xuangan, while others have supported the imperial court with great fanfare.
And the pavilion Tao sandwiched between these two forces was not regarded as his own by either party.
Because Guantao did not listen to Zhang Liang's arrangement, the Jijun County Shouyuan Council regarded Guantao County as a lackey of the imperial court.
Wuyang and Qinghe counties regarded Guantao County as a place of possible rebellion because of the relationship between Lin County Ling and Yang Xuangan.
How to change Lin County's order in someone else's position, he will not send reinforcements to Guantao.
With Zhang Jincheng's hand to get rid of a potential enemy, why don't you do it As for the innocent dead people, that is Zhang Jincheng's sinful karma, what does it have to do with others After listening to the reply of the county magistrate, Li Laojiu gave up his hand with a smiling face again.
"If the reinforcements can come in three days, we may not have to fight to the death with Zhang Jincheng.
The thieves attacked Guantao, just for the sake of rice and grain in the city.
The adults haphazardly promised to give them some and told them not to enter the city.
Wouldn't it be a mutually satisfactory outcome?"
"You actually persuaded this county to use grain to fund the enemy," Lin Xianling asked angrily.
"This county is an official of the imperial court," he swallowed it back into his stomach halfway through his words, staring at Li Laojiu's face.
If Zhang Jin said that he was really willing to take the food and wealth and leave, why should he be stingy with a little money, anyway, he could always collect it in the end, it was better than having nothing left after the army was defeated.
"My lord, my lord, the little one doesn't mean that" Li Laojiu didn't understand the county commander's thoughts, and was so frightened by the feigned anger on his face that he waved his hand again and again, "The little one means, negotiate with him first."
Drive a hard bargain.
Thieves also do not want to be harmed, especially when several families fight together, it is easiest to compare with each other.
The villain meant to send an envoy to negotiate with Zhang Jincheng first to see what he wanted.
Then talk slowly, the longer the conversation, the better, if you can deal with one more day, it is better to die than to live.
If it is delayed until the reinforcements arrive," he rolled his eyes, the meaning of which was self-evident.
When Lin Xianling heard this, he felt more and more moved.
Put all the treasures on Cheng Xiaojiu alone, in case he can't deal with the bandits outside, he will have to wait for death.
And if one hand is ready to resist to the end, and the other hand is to bargain with Zhang Jincheng, there is no doubt that the possibility of avoiding disaster will increase a lot.
Although Li Laojiu has a little bit of a nest, at least there is a reasonable sentence, if you can deal with it one more day, it is better to die than to live Thinking of this, he stroked his beard and muttered in a low voice, "Well, the situation is so critical.
For the sake of the safety of the people of the county, the county had to temporarily abdicate power.
Desperately to damage some reputation, but also to talk to Zhang Thief and Snake.
It's just that the thief's mind has been cunning and changeable, and it's really hard to say whether he will really agree."
"Yes, definitely" lest Lin County Order continue to fight hard according to Cheng Xiaojiu's wishes, Guo Zhutou responded repeatedly.
"Judging from the experience of dealing with thieves for so many years, the more big the boss, the more he likes to pay attention to the rules of the rivers and lakes.
Let's send an envoy to him before the three-hour deadline comes, and even if he doesn't agree, he'll negotiate with your lordship.
After these negotiations, it is estimated that it will not be a big problem to drag on for two or three days.
If we show a little more sincerity during the negotiations," he rubbed his fingers and put on a posture of asking for favors, "Zhang Thief has won the sweetness, and he will not suspect our true intentions" "Oh" Lin Xianling was completely moved by Guo Zhutou's words, and his heart was eager to try.
From the last moment when he resolutely announced that he was going to fight the thief to the death and now decided to negotiate with Zhang Jincheng, such a huge change only cost him half a cup of tea.

It cannot be said that it is not "like a stream".
Cheng Xiaojiu was angry when he heard this, and he had the heart to insist on admonishing a few more words, saw the unpleasant hint in Dong Zhushu's eyes.
Everyone else wants to surrender without a fight, and it is not easy to take the initiative to negotiate with Zhang Jincheng while preparing for the battle.
If the two continue to insist on the main battle, it is not predictable whether they can still get the support of Lin County's order, and the others will definitely come up and pull back.
Without the support of his colleagues in the county office, just relying on the strength of one person to organize the villagers to fight against more than 100,000 rogues, it is tantamount to saying that Mengcheng Xiaojiu can read the meaning in the eyes of the master bookkeeper, sighed softly in his heart, and turned his regretful gaze to the window.
This temporarily requisitioned yard belonged to a medium-sized family in the city.
There are several large locust trees planted in front of the windows of the main house.
The leaves of the trees are green in June, and countless insects whose names do not know their names fall from the treetops with fuses hanging from their heads, and they are happily swinging in the shadows.
They are happy because they are ignorant and short-lived, and they never have to grieve over the coming of winter. "150,000 people, each person consumes one pound of grain per day, and it will consume 150,000 pounds."
"Fifteen hundred stone of grain a day, if you want him to retire from the army, at least we have to come up with two months' rations, otherwise the thief is afraid that it will be difficult to move" Ding Wuwu, the head of Hucao, was very considerate for the thief.
Now the price of grain in Guantao City has soared, and one stone of grain costs at least seventy yuan.
The thief's ration for two months was 90,000 stone of grain, or 6,300 yuan.
And the townsmen killed in the city for half a night and half a day, even counting the pension, and the total did not cost the county magistrate 300 hangings.
Thinking about the generosity and stinginess in this, I can't help but be angry.
"I'm afraid that the food alone is not enough, and I have to let the merchants in the city make another sum of money, in short, at least let Zhang Jincheng and his subordinates be excited" Guo Zhutou's voice came again, as if he was already the bookkeeper under Zhang Jincheng's command.
The officials consulted and discussed, and soon came up with a rather detailed plan.
First of all, Guantao County wants to make up a part of the grain, grass and wealth to send outside the city, imitating the strategy of Xuangao's reward master, so that the thieves can understand that Guantao City is very rich, and even if they are trapped for half a year, there will be no starvation to death.
Secondly, while treating the teacher, the messenger needed to make it clear to Zhang Jincheng euphemistically, that the county officials were not afraid of them, but could not bear to use their swords lightly and disturb the place.
So hopefully they're just passing by and don't stay longer.
Of course, the Tao County of the Pantang Pavilion will also give some discretion, and the initial consideration is to give a month's rice ration to the 150,000 army, and an additional consolation money for the leaders.
If Zhang Da is still not satisfied, the two sides might as well talk openly and honestly, and there is no need to meet each other.
"I'm afraid that Zhang Jin said that he took the money and grain, and he even regarded Guantao as a big fat sheep" Cheng Xiaojiu was really sad when he heard it, and couldn't help but interject in a low voice.
"Since he can command so many cottages, he must have a reputation," Lin Xian Ling's innocent eyes widened, and he said with a sigh of anticipation.
"I've never heard of being a thief and having credibility," Cheng Xiaojiu was so angry that he stomped his feet again and again.
When these words came out, a few headcatchers didn't like to hear it.
They have spoken out to prove that there is a way to steal, and it is easy not to break the contract for no reason.
They are all veterans with many years of experience in catching thieves, and Cheng Xiaojiu naturally can't talk about each other.
The directors of Cao calculated in their hearts the "inch head" before and after and the "consumption" in the transportation process, where can they still take care of whether Cheng Xiaojiu is reasonable, and successively opened their mouths for Guo and Jia.
"After all, the virtuous nephew has experienced few things" Seeing that the staff had basically reached a consensus, the county commander smiled and interrupted Cheng Xiaojiu's insistence.
"Don't you hear that there has been a saying that there are heroes in the green forest since ancient times, and besides, this county is just to delay time, and does not think about paying them benefits truthfully.
If it can be dragged until the reinforcements come, the rice, grain and wealth taken by the thieves must be doubled and spit out to the county."
Since the prefectural magistrates have said so.
Cheng Xiaojiu had no choice but to close his mouth for the time being.
Lin Deen comforted him a few more words as a senior elder, turned his face away, and continued to discuss the matter of the teacher with the staff.
Rice and grain can be temporarily withdrawn from the county treasury, and money and silk can also be temporarily advanced by the government.
Anyway, these expenditures are all to protect the people of the county, and in the end, they must be shared equally by the people.
But which one will take the position of Xuan Gao is really difficult for everyone.
That Zhang Jin said that he was a well-known moody person, and once he offended him, I was afraid that someone would immediately dig out his heart and liver to make a snack.
In the future, if there is any benefit in the county, it will never have anything to do with Mr.
"Xuan Gao".
"This messenger must be brave and resourceful, his position must not be too low, and he must also be eloquent and burly.
Otherwise, it will definitely make Zhang Thief look down on him, and it will damage the image of the county," Jia Zhutou suggested while looking at Cheng Xiaojiu with his eyes.
"Hmm" Lin Xianling nodded silently, feeling embarrassed.
If it is said that the most courageous and loyal person in the county, it may be Cheng Xiaojiu.
But in case Cheng Xiaojiu is eaten as a dish by Zhang Jin, when the thieves attack Guantao again, who will lead the troops to meet the battle If Cheng Xiaojiu is not allowed to go to the enemy camp as an envoy, any of the two headhunters will not be able to defect after seeing Zhang Jincheng.

As for Li Laojiu, Jiang Ye and others, they are either obscene, or greedy and timid, and they are sent to the enemy camp, I am afraid that they will make mistakes
