Seeing that the landowners and businessmen were gone, Mei Pingdong, the magistrate of Huaiyuan County of the Tang Dynasty, touched the short beard on his chin again, and then murmured: Today they are gone, I am afraid that they will not be easily reconciled. Be on guard, lest there be any confusion! "

Immediately he beckoned, and then one of his entourage trotted over: "Sir, what are your orders?"

Mei Ping said: "You go to the tax bureau and the patrol police station to send a letter saying that those landlords and businessmen who came to the county office have been dismissed by this official, but you must also prevent them from causing trouble!"

The taxation process of the Tang Dynasty was not so harmonious from the very beginning. Basically, every place would bring violent bloodshed along with taxation.

Especially when the tax was first levied, there were always those who didn't give up or thought that the Tang Dynasty didn't dare to do anything to them, and there were always people, and there were many.

Of course, the Tang Dynasty knew that the law did not blame the public, otherwise they would all be killed, who would they turn to to collect taxes?

But there is also a word called killing chickens to warn monkeys!

Now, a group of Tang officials in Huaiyuan County are waiting for the chicken to jump out of it foolishly!

Sure enough, the next day, when the members of the tax inspection team were collecting taxes in Wangjia Village, several miles east of the county seat, they were resisted and even attacked by the mob, killing and injuring one member of the tax inspection team on the spot.

Under such circumstances, the tax officer who led the team withdrew decisively and quickly from this Wangjia Village!

Seeing a pseudo-Tang official in a grotesque Confucian uniform fleeing with a dozen dogs, Wang Shuangxi grinned, so much so that his buck teeth looked a little terrifying.

"Just these bastards, even dare to go to my Wang's family to run wild, and don't even look at what kind of family our Wang family is, how can those **** be compared!" After Wang Shuangxi said this, a young man next to him immediately said: " Dad, if you beat these fake Tang thieves like this, will it lead to disaster?"

Wang Shuangxi's face was stern: "What kind of disaster can happen, and it's not just our Wang family that does this. Look at it, just today, no family in Huaiyuan County will pay taxes!"

"Our Wang family has been working in Huaiyuan for hundreds of years, and has a deep foundation. We are afraid of what he will do. Moreover, even if this pseudo-Tang conquers the world and comes to Huaiyuan County, this Shangguan wants to govern the area, and there are also gentlemen like our Wang family. The county magistrate of the pseudo-Tang Dynasty can still manage those **** in person!"

At this time, someone next to him answered: "Big brother is right, since ancient times, the imperial power has not been sent to the countryside, and now the surnamed Mei is doing a town office and setting up a village chief, which shows that he wants to get involved in our clan. Internal affairs, how can family affairs allow them to be involved as officials?

Besides, if we follow their words, how much tax will our royal family have to pay? I'm afraid it will cost hundreds of taels of silver in another year! Even if our Wang family has a big business, we can't stand such a toss! "

Hearing what the elders above said, the young man could only sigh and stop talking.

At noon that day, Mei Pingdong got the news from the county tax bureau, saying that the six tax inspection teams sent out today were violently resisted.

Not long after, Mei Pingdong saw the two chiefs of the county tax bureau and the county patrol police bureau. After these two chiefs came to the county government office, they immediately said in the identity of their subordinates: "I see the county magistrate!"

Mei Pingdong naturally didn't know what Shangguan's profile was, and immediately stepped forward and said, "Master Lin, Master Feng, you're welcome, come, take the seat!"

Although the county tax bureau, the county patrol police station, and the inspectorate are all part of the subordinate organizations of the county government, everyone knows that the taxation and patrol police and the inspectorate in the Tang Dynasty worked independently.

The Inspectorate, the taxation and the patrol police are institutions with dual leadership. In addition to the county government, their respective direct superior departments can also lead them. Therefore, Mei Pingdong also has no absolute power to command these three institutions.

In terms of rank, the chief officials of these three institutions are only one level lower than Mei Pingdong, who is from the seventh rank.

Therefore, Mei Pingdong will naturally not treat them like ordinary subordinates, but will talk to him in a friendly manner!

"The two adults came together today, presumably for the sake of the gentry's tax resistance?" Mei Pingdong said without waiting for them to speak, "This official has just learned about this matter, and these people really think that we are the Tang Dynasty and the hypocrites. Just as cowardly, just kidding!"

Seeing Mei Pingdong's attitude, Master Lin and Master Feng were also relieved!

Immediately, Lin Chaotian, director of the Huaiyuan County Taxation Bureau, opened his mouth and said: "Yes, the gentry pays taxes as one, which is the national policy of the Tang Dynasty. How can I be shaken because of the resistance of a few landlords? This means to attack these false spies who oppose the tax policy of the country and the DPRK, and let them know that under our Datang rule, tax evasion and tax evasion are absolutely not allowed!"

Having said this, he took a deep breath, and then said in a very serious tone, "Even if he dies, he has to get up and pay the taxes he owes!"

At this time, Feng Laoliu, chief of the Huaiyuan County Patrol Bureau, said with a stern face: "Lord Lin is very true, under the rule of the Tang Dynasty, how can I tolerate these lawless armed confrontations, this matter must be severely punished, otherwise I will Huaiyuan County will never have peace!"

Having said this, he paused for a while, then took a few breaths and continued: "Just this morning, I received an order from the Privy Council's Logistics Department, ordering this county to improve the security of Huaiyuan County as soon as possible."

"Two adults, now the military is very dissatisfied with the public security order in Huaiyuan County. The logistics department's small-scale transport troops in Huaiyuan County have been attacked by local bandits many times. Although no actual losses were caused, this situation It must be changed, otherwise, the military will think that the county has been unable to maintain law and order in the county, and will send regular troops here!

And I have also found out that these men and horses who attacked my Wang Shi transport team are related to several big landlords in Huaiyuan County, one of which is the Wang family! "

Feng Laoliu, like most of the chiefs of county patrol police stations, is a retired military officer. Before retiring, he was a lieutenant, but he was a lieutenant whose gold content was not high. He was temporarily promoted before he retired. retired.

He was an old bandit back then, and because he was from Long Zao, he only got the title of an officer, but later with the regularization of the officers of the Tang Dynasty Wang Shi, a wild man like him lost the opportunity to continue to be promoted, so he and Like many people in similar circumstances, they chose to quit the front line and then served in the local patrol department.

Now that the various systems of the Tang Dynasty have been formalized, the chaotic titles such as arresting officers, robbery officers, sheriffs, and patrol officers have been unified and unified as patrol police. If there are problems such as the flood of civil servants and the difficulty of financial expenditure, the village-level police force has been abolished, and only one village sheriff has been established in each village.

At the same time, the manpower at the first level of the town will be increased. According to the size of the town, there will be several or more than ten patrolmen, and they will be under the jurisdiction of the town sheriff.

In the county, a patrol police station is set up, with a director, who has jurisdiction over a number of patrol officers.

The government has a patrol police station with a chief.

In the case of the province, there is no one for the time being, but it has been formulated in advance to set up a patrol police department.

Naturally, these titles were all arranged by Li Xuan!

Although it sounds strange to everyone, it's okay to call it strange, as long as you know that this is an official organization, you can do it.

Feng Laoliu retired from active service, because he did not retire from active service due to injuries or other reasons, but voluntarily requested to retire to make way for the new officer below, so the military temporarily promoted him to the rank of lieutenant before he retired.

After being discharged from the army in this way, the settlement will be more generous. At first, he worked in the Xiato Patrol Bureau of Liping House, and later he was transferred to Huaiyuan County to become the chief of the newly established Huaiyuan County Patrol Bureau.

As the number one in charge of maintaining law and order in Huaiyuan County, he naturally couldn't ignore the landlords who were armed to resist taxes.

Immediately continued: "I have also discussed with the battalion commander of the county burglary camp. He said that he has received the military order in advance. As long as our local government requests assistance with an official document, then they can send troops!"

Local robbery camps are under the dual jurisdiction of the local government and the military. If you want to use them, you must first get permission from the military.

However, maintaining law and order like this is the daily work of the above-ground robbery camps. In some troublesome places, the robbery camps often get permission in advance.

However, after the military has given permission in advance, local officials still need to issue official documents, so that they will officially send out to suppress the armed tax-resistant people.

Of course~www.wuxiaspot.com~ If there is a rebellion, the enemy sieges the city, etc., there is not so much trouble, and the protection of the country is not lost, especially if the county magistrate or other strategically important places are not lost, that is, the county arrests The existence of the pirate camp has military strategic significance.

Hearing these two people say this, Mei Pingdong nodded slightly and said, "Since that's the case, it's not too late, let's go to the thief camp!"

Soon, these three people appeared in the Huaiyuan County Chengnan Church, that is, the military camp of the Huaiyuan County Robbery Camp!

After hearing the words of the three adults, Fang Dongzhi, the battalion leader of Huaiyuan County's burglary camp, frowned slightly and said, "I'm afraid this is a bit difficult to handle. Now it's not one family or two rebellions, but six or more rebellions. I am afraid that it will be unsustainable to rely on my newly established robbery camp. My camp has just recruited soldiers for a few days. There are less than 200 people in total, and they are all recruits. Only the help of the garrison will do!"

In Huaiyuan County, where the three rivers meet, the military is naturally worried that they will only be guarded by a robbery camp that only stays in the city for a few days, so a garrison of about 500 people is left here. A few bowls of guns were left.

"Want to ask the garrison for help?" Mei Pingdong seemed a little hesitant when he heard this: "This is not good!"
