Chapter 83 Recruitment (Part 1)

Not to mention how Zhang Shun prepared his army and trained his cavalry. After "Zijinliang" returned part of the plundered property to Douzhuang according to the agreement with Zhang Daojun, released some of the captive people, and returned to the boundaries of Yangcheng, Zhang Daojun breathed a deep sigh of relief.

It turns out that even though Zhang Daojun seems confident, he is actually feeling uneasy. Although Douzhuang is impregnable, it is actually just a larger village. After all, the villagers have never seen the big world, and they are frightened by being besieged by thieves for so long. If there is any trouble, rebellion is also unknown, not to mention the losses during the battle to defend the city are not small, and supplies are also lacking.

After the thieves had retreated for a few days, Zhang Daojun sent people to repeatedly confirm that there was no danger, then he personally took a few servants, put on makeup, and hurried off to meet Song Tongyin, the governor of Shanxi. Zhang Daojun told Song Tongyin in detail about the situation of his own city defense and the surrender of the rebels, and he also beautified his performance in many ways.

After Song Tongyin listened, he hesitated and asked, "Shen Zhi, you know the military affairs well and have many contacts with bandits. What do you think of this matter?"

"In my opinion, the thieves are cunning, so they may not be trustworthy!" Zhang Daojun concluded after hearing this, "I heard that in the land of Shaanxi, the thieves rebelled and surrendered. After surrendering, cunning and cunning are considered ordinary things. Regardless of the Fu army, Whether you accept it or not, don’t lose your vigilance!”

"You are old enough to seek the country!" Song Tongyin, the governor of Shanxi, praised, "What you said is true, but whether you accept it or not, there is one thing that must be done! That is to send envoys to the bandit camp in time to negotiate."

"Firstly, it can calm the minds of thieves and prevent them from jumping over the wall; secondly, it can detect the thief's true identity and obtain information about the thief."

"Fu Jun, you really have a plan in mind!" Zhang Daojun patted his horse and said, "However, I would like to add one more thing. I don't believe that all thieves are of the same mind. We can look for loyal people among them to act as internal agents, and we can also look for ambitious people among them to sow discord."

"Wonderful! This is a very clever plan." Song Tong, the governor of Shanxi, said with a smile.

Sure enough, a few days later, "Zijinliang" received news that Shanxi Governor Song Tongyin sent an envoy to contact him. "Purple Golden Liang" was overjoyed and quickly summoned "Optimus Prime", "Lao Huihui" and "Eight King Kong" to greet him.

The person who came was no more than thirty years old. He had a goatee and looked a bit like a scholar. He was followed by a follower who was burly and should be his bodyguard. He was not arrogant when he saw "Purple Gold Liang" and held his hands in front of him. : "I have met Chief Wang. I am Liu Wei, the special envoy of the Shanxi Governor. Please take good care of me in the future."

Hearing this, "Purple Gold Liang" was immediately attracted to him and did not even dare to say anything, and invited him to sit on the table. The two of them talked about it, and finally the special envoy Li Wei took the seat, with "Purple Gold Liang" accompanying him at the bottom. The other rebels were quite aggrieved, but this man had a correct attitude, and "Purple Gold Liang" didn't mind, so he let it go.

Zhang Shun and Taoist Qiuxu looked on with cold eyes and said nothing, sitting and watching the "Purple Golden Liang" and the Shanxi governor's special envoy extolling each other. After several people had had enough wine and food, they started talking about business.

Liu Wei said seriously: "The governor of Shanxi has issued a decree: Since you have sincerely recruited people, you should return and occupy the county seat to show your sincerity in recruiting people!"

"Zijinliang" looked at the few people under his command and saw that they all had no objections, so he smiled and said: "Of course, we will evacuate Yangcheng County when we turn around. In addition, I will also issue an order to the 36th Battalion, if any have already occupied it." If the city is occupied, return it to the government; if you do not occupy the city, do not attack the city again."

Special envoy Liu Wei nodded upon hearing this and continued: "All the people captured and property plundered must be returned!"

"Purple Golden Liang" thought for a while, after recruiting people, he would be a high-ranking official and a generous salary. Why should he care about these things? He agreed without discussing it with everyone.

Liu Wei saw that there was no objection to this statement, so he continued: "You must gather in Jiuxian County, Yueyang County within half a month to accept the recruitment matter."

"This" "Zijinliang" also hesitated. He originally thought that his Thirty-sixth Battalion was everywhere, and the imperial court had recruited him, and he had to restrain the scattered rebels on his own. Unexpectedly, Shanxi Governor Song Tongyin's move made him Confused.

"What? Leader Wang can't restrain his subordinates?" Liu Wei said with a smile.

"Wherever, they are just scattered. It's not easy to contact them. I'm afraid they won't be able to arrive in time and miss the governor's important event." "Zijinliang" said with a smile.

"It's okay. It's reasonable to give a few days of grace." Special envoy Liu Wei was reasonable and said, "It's just that it's not easy for me to report to Fujun when I go back. If Fujun asks how many days can I contact him? How long will it take to get in touch? Jujiu County? I can't handle it anymore. How about this, I'll stay here for a few days, and when you finish contacting me and confirm the date, I will go back and report to our Fujun."

"Zijinliang" was very happy when he heard this and said: "It's so good, so good! There's no need to disturb us, as long as the special envoy doesn't dislike the simplicity of our place and our vulgarity."

The two of them were polite to each other and did not mention taking a rest. "Optimus Prime" Zhang Shun watched from beginning to end with cold eyes, and sneered in his heart: This "Purple Golden Beam" is so obsessed with profit that he will leave his family's life and death in the hands of others, and he is not afraid of dying without a burial place. If you leave the enemy's envoy in the camp, isn't it true that you are being looked down upon by the enemy? You must know that the so-called embassy in later generations is actually an intelligence agency. Civilians collect economic and political intelligence, and military attachés collect military and technical intelligence. This is basically a tacit understanding between countries. This "Purple Gold Liang" still naively thinks that the envoy is the envoy?

Not to mention what happened to others, when Liu Wei arrived at his resting place, he sent the "Purple Gold Liang" away. For several days, under the reception of "Purple Gold Liang", Liu Wei and the subordinates of "Purple Gold Liang" drank happily and became familiar with each other.

That night, he returned to the resting place drunk again, but he never thought that someone was waiting for him in the bedroom. Liu Wei was startled. He turned on the lamp and took a closer look. It turned out to be Han Tingxian, the military advisor of the "Purple Golden Liang". Liu Wei couldn't help but laugh and said: "It's already late at night, why did Han Junshi come to my place if he doesn't want to rest? I don't like Master Rabbit."

"The special envoy is joking." Han Tingxian nodded and said, "I am Han Tingxian, a native of Yichuan. Because the thieves robbed my hometown, I was unfortunately captured by the bandits and couldn't escape in the bandit camp. I came here today at a risk to Tell the special envoy my loyalty, and I am willing to accept the restraint and jurisdiction of Lord Fujun to the death."

"Haha! Who is Master Fujun that you deserve to be looked at by him?" Special envoy Liu Wei smiled and said, "If you are interested, just obey the orders of Duke Zhang, who is in command of the capital. Duke Zhang is entrusted by Master Fujun. , is solely responsible for this matter.”

Han Tingxian was overjoyed when he heard this. He quickly paid homage to the special envoy Liu Wei, vowing to obey the orders of Zhang Daojun, the commander of the capital, and gave Liu Wei a hundred taels of gold and silver. Liu Wei weighed the gold and silver, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
