Chapter 109
Whoever created such rumors has absolutely no good intentions.How can it be so easy to suppress bandits?Moreover, in this era, due to excessive taxes, land annexation, and the hardships of farmers, there have been many home-based bandits.To eliminate such bandits is by no means a purely military issue.

But now the rumormongers are saying that as long as Li Buqi leads the troops away, all the problems will be solved, and the expectations of the common people will be aroused. When they see that Li Buqi has nothing to do with the bandits, they will be more hopeful and disappointed. bigger.This is a devious way to ruin Li Buqi's reputation.

Although Li Buqi's formation of a new army can be said to have moved the cheese of the nobles, so far no one has been found to have engaged in small tricks.So if you think about it with your ass, you know that it is the unhappy civil servants of the Privy Council. Before that, they had suggested to the emperor that Li Buqi go to suppress the bandits immediately.Li Buqi could have predicted that in a few days, someone would ask the emperor again to ask Li Buqi to suppress the bandits on the grounds of the people's ardent hope.

If you want to fix a person, let him do things. As long as you do things, you will have the opportunity to pick mistakes.This is the only method of office politics, and now someone wants to use this method to punish him.

This matter is very dangerous to Li Buqi, but it is not without opportunities.Whether it is danger or opportunity ultimately depends on whether Li Buqi can handle the matter of suppressing bandits well.This requires Li Zhang's assistance.

But the purpose of Li Buqi's meeting with Yang Silang today is not for this.He explained his plan to Yang Silang, Yang Silang thought it was feasible, he had the right manpower to do the job, as long as he had money, he was [-]% sure of success.So the three discussed some details and left quietly.

In order to cope with the imminent crisis, Li Buqi first helped Li Zhang put up the shelf of the Gyeonggi Police Department.When there is no other suitable manpower, Lian Guangzhi must be used as the eyes and ears of the Pirates Division.

When Lian Guangzhi came back from the brothel drunk again, Li Buqi pulled him into his study: "Brother has something on your mind recently?"

"Hey, did you see it?"

"Brother suddenly doesn't read books recently, and hangs around the brothel all day, so there must be something on his mind. It's just that the elder brother doesn't say anything, and the younger brother is not easy to ask. But what are the difficulties in school?"

Li Buqi broke the matter, and Lian Guangzhi confided: "My brother knows my brother. When I was young, my master told me that I didn't rely on the materials of Jinshi. I just didn't believe it, and I was afraid of those civil officials. I must sit on an equal footing with them, so I came to Bianliang. I really hope that I will make some friends in this place where the articles are flourishing. If it doesn't improve at all, it's not as good as Sun Xujiu, who has only been here for a few months."

"I just don't know how to recite poems and fu. It seems that the examination field is hopeless in this life. I feel uncomfortable. Even if I am an official, I will have to look at the faces of those civil servants in the future. It seems that I have to rely on divination and fortune-telling for my brother." A bowl of rice is eaten."

"Brother doesn't want to be an official?"

"What's the use of becoming an official if you don't pass the exam? Maybe those sour dings will be cheated at some point."

Li Buqi realized that there was no need to comfort Lian Guangzhi, he must have already made up his mind.So he went straight to the point and said: "Brother is right. But brother is also capable. Could it be that just watching this great country let those sour dingers ruin it?"

"But what else?"

"There is always a fight. If my brother is willing to help me, there will be a corner for those sour dings right now."

"They are so powerful, so what if they poach some corners?"

"Hehe, the embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in the ant's nest. Besides, we are not ants. As long as we do it properly, we foolish old men will move mountains. We will dig a little today and dig a little tomorrow. It won't take many years to dig out their foundations. By then, even skyscrapers will be destroyed." Just a light push and it falls."

"I know that brother has big ambitions. My calculation is really correct!" Lian Guangzhi slapped his thigh: "Brother, tell me how to do it?"

When Li Buqi talked about his plan, Lian Guangzhi was delighted to hear it: "Brother is a good planner! This must be very interesting to do, how can I be missing!"

With a goal in life, Lian Guangzhi returned to his original appearance, got up early in the morning to clean himself up, read for a while, and followed Li Buqi to see Li Zhang after dinner.

There is a shortage of people in the new yamen, and Li Zhang is very familiar with Lian Guangzhi, so he immediately appointed him as the Jiyi writer.

Lian Guangzhi had worked in the army, and Li Buqi confessed, so he helped Li Zhang borrow a few people from the Imperial City Division to help select personnel according to Li Buqi's plan.

Let the two of them get busy first, Li Buqi still needs to visit Zhou Qing who is locked up in Kaifeng County.

Now Zhou Qing's details have been found out, which is basically consistent with what Guo Dutou said.Moreover, Zhou Qing was indeed a bit brave and had some prestige in the army, so he was someone who could be used, so Li Buqi was interested in talking to Zhou Qing.

The death row in Kaifeng County rarely sees sunlight all year round and is full of stench.Li Buqi stepped into the prison door and couldn't help covering his nose with his sleeve.

Li Buqi is notorious among the public in Kaifeng, and everyone knows that he is not easy to mess with.The head of the prison obsequiously handed over two pills: "The officials put this on the nose to get rid of the bad smell."

Li Buqi waved his hands and followed the prisoner into the depths of the prison. The prisoner opened a cell, pushed a prisoner into another cell, nodded and bowed and said, "Mr. Li, Zhou Qing is in here."

Li Buqi just nodded and tossed a silver leaf to the prisoner, and the prisoner tactfully handed the oil lamp to Li Buqi and said, "Young one is waiting at the door, the official just call me after asking questions."

Through the dim light, Li Buqi saw a big man leaning against the wall looking up at him, his face was unkempt and he couldn't see his face clearly.He put the oil lamp on the lampstand and knelt down and said, "I am Li Buqi. Guo Dutou should have told you, right?"

The big man just sat up, but he still had a numb expression: "I don't know why the officials are here?"

"Guo Du asked me to save your life."

"Thank you, officer. But with my crime, can those big headscarves let me go? Could the officer let me out secretly?"

"This can't be done. Therefore, if we want to find another way, we have to wait for the opportunity."

The big man finally showed some concern: "I don't know what to do?"

Li Buqi said: "If you kill a civil official, the other civil officials will never let you go. Therefore, if you want to survive, you have to survive. I wonder if you dare to go to sea and deal with barbarians thousands of miles away?"

The big man didn't hesitate at all: "Isn't it just going to the sea? When I was in Cangzhou, I went to sea a lot. Anyway, I'm dead. If the official can give me a chance, my life will be the official's."

"Aren't you supporting the army in Cangzhou? How can you go to sea?"

The big man got up and said, "A lot of big turbans in Cangzhou went to Liao Kingdom by sea to make more money. They saw that I was good at water, so they asked me to be a sailor on the ship, and I also ran at sea for a year."

Huiyi is the trade conducted by the army.In order to make up for the lack of military expenditure, the imperial court often gave the frontline generals the right to return Yi, and there were often Hui Yi officers in the army.Cangzhou is located on the border of Song and Liao, so the object of Huiyi must be Liao.Moreover, Cangzhou is close to the sea, and you can go directly to Qianzhou, Jinzhou, Chenzhou, and Suzhou from the sea, so smuggling by sea is also normal.

This was a pleasant surprise.But Li Buqi still asked: "But the place I want you to go to is unpredictable, and you can't tell what you will encounter when you get there. It can be said that you are close to death, do you dare to go?"

"If you don't go, you will die. But I am not willing to die for a dog official like this!"

Li Buqi stood up and said: "Since you understand the situation clearly, you can try this matter. It's just that you need to wait patiently for the opportunity."

Walking to the door of the cell, he asked again: "If another official abused your ancestors in the street, would you still do it? I want you to tell the truth!"

"To tell you the truth, even if the dog official doesn't touch him to death, I will kill him at night. If there is another dog official who insults my ancestors, I won't do it in the street again. I will kill him at night and sweep him away." Clear the beginning and the end." The big man was silent for a while before he said.

Li Buqi nodded and said, "That's right. I hope you can survive."

After leaving the prison, Li Buqi told the prison chief: "Change that Zhou Qing to a better cell, and don't make him suffer."

The prison boss repeatedly agreed, not only because of the master's methods, but also because of the master's generous spending.
