Meng Jiuyou's expression changed when he saw Du Qi's group. He quickly went up to them and waited beside Du Qi's carriage. "Young master, we've dealt with them. After this, there will be no more hidden forces in Fushan county. We've eliminated nearly two thousand people this time. It's a great victory. "
Du Qi nodded. "Well done!"
Meng Jiuyou said, "Young master, you're too kind. It's all thanks to your guidance."
Du Qi said, "If it's yours, it's yours. This time, you were the one who came up with the plan to deal with this hidden force. This Young Master will remember your contributions in my heart. Do your job well and bring Fushan county to the next level. I hope that after I take Pandu County, you and I can meet there. "
Meng Jiuyou said, "I understand."
At this moment, Meng Jiuyou was even more excited.
Du Qi's words were actually a confirmation of what he had said earlier. He was promising to let him become the County Governor of Pandu County after they took over Songyang County.
Otherwise, why would he go to Pandu county?
Meng Jiuyou's fighting spirit was high. He wanted to run Fushan county better.
Only then could he live up to Du Qi's trust.
Du Qi turned and looked at Zong Ba. He had heard from Moledo that Zong Ba was very talented. He knew that Zong Ba was a fierce general on the battlefield.
This time, Zong Ba had also made a contribution.
He killed Li Xiao, Zhang Zhongjing, and the others and led his men to wipe out the bandits.
Du Qi said solemnly, "Zong Ba, you've done well this time, very well."
Zong Ba said, "Young master, you're too kind."
After a pause, Zong Ba said, "Young master, I have a request."
Du Qi said, "What is it?"
Zong Ba replied, "Young master, I hope to follow you to Yongye county and take up a position in the army. When teacher led the troops to Yongye county, I was going to follow. At that time, my teacher said that Fushan County needed someone to hold the fort, so I stayed behind. "
"But now, you no longer need me."
"Zhang Zhongjing, Li Xiao, Babur, and the others have been killed. Everything has been settled."
"From now on, Fushan County is safe."
"Moreover, the situation in Fushan County is relatively stable. The west side is near the sea and the east side is Yongye County. Although there are some neighboring places to the north and south, the strength of those places can't compare to Fushan County. "
Zong Ba said, "Young Master, this is my request. Please accept it."
Du Qi nodded and said, "Approved!"
Zong Ba was overjoyed, "Many thanks, Young Master."
With Du Qi, Zong Ba would be able to work under Mordor. Even though it was impossible for him to be able to take charge of the situation when he followed Mordor to Yongye County, it was impossible for him to do so. The problem was that they had the opportunity to continue fighting in Yongye County.
This was an excellent opportunity.
Zong Ba wanted to continue fighting on the battlefield.
Staying in Fushan County was impossible, so the best choice was to go to Yongye County.
Du Qi looked at Meng Jiuyou and said, "Meng Jiuyou, without Zong Ba here, can you stabilize the situation?"
Meng Jiuyou said firmly, "Absolutely no problem."
He was very confident.
After all, under the current circumstances, Fushan County was no longer a threat. Moreover, he had been the County Magistrate of Fushan County for a long time. Under such circumstances, if he still couldn't control Fushan County, he would be letting down Du Qi's trust and trust.
Du Qi nodded and said, "Alright, then you do what you need to do. I'm going to continue on my way."
"Yes!"
Meng Jiuyou bowed and stood to the side.
Du Qi led his men and continued on their way.
At this time, the soldiers had already pulled out a boat.
This boat was quite big and could hold more than two hundred people. Right now, there were less than a hundred people around Du Qi, including everyone else. Everyone was riding on a boat to cross the river, crossing the White Horse Crossing.
After the army crossed the river, they continued on their way.
They were heading to Yongye County.
Because Du Qi and his men were traveling very quickly, they arrived at Yongye County in less than a day. In Yongye County, as the County Magistrate, Zeng Cheng received news that Du Qi was about to arrive, so he personally went to the army camp and met Mordor there.
Zeng Cheng said, "General Mordor, Young Master has brought his men to Yongye County. Should we arrange for people to prepare and bring people to welcome him? "
Mordor said, "No need."
Zeng Cheng said, "Young Master is coming, don't we need to arrange for people to welcome him? After all, Young Master is of noble status. We should go and welcome him properly so that he won't be disappointed! "
Mordor chuckled.
He understood Ceng Cheng's meaning.
He was trying to flatter him.
He was deliberately trying to curry favor with Du Qi.
Mordor had followed Du Qi for more than ten years, so he knew Du Qi's temper very well. He shook his head and said, "Zeng Cheng, I won't go. If you want to go, just bring your county yamen runners to welcome them. "
"Yes!"
Zeng Cheng immediately agreed.
He was also a very opinionated person.
Now he came to see Mordor to listen to Mordor's opinion. Since Mordor was not going, he would go and welcome him himself.
Du Qi was coming, so he could not neglect it.
Zeng Cheng returned to the County Government and summoned the Deputy County Magistrate Fan Pingping and the others. Then he went to the south of Yongye County and waited quietly.
Time passed by little by little.
When it was close to five in the afternoon, Zeng Cheng was a little sleepy. Suddenly, someone shouted, "They're coming, they're coming."
With a cry of surprise, Zeng Cheng woke up at once.
His drowsiness had completely disappeared, and he no longer felt drowsy or sleepy. He opened his eyes wide and craned his neck to look at the official road in the distance. He saw a group of people moving at a steady pace.
There were not many people in the group, and they were heading to Yongye County.
The group of people was Du Qi and his men.
Zeng Cheng became excited and said, "Everyone, keep your eyes peeled. Come, let's go and welcome the young master."
"Yes!"
Everyone replied in unison.
Everyone in Yongye County knew the importance of this meeting. One had to know that Du Qi was the one who controlled the entire Fu Shan County and Yongye County. If Du Qi were to take a liking to him, everything would be fine. However, if they made Du Qi unhappy, it was possible that their official positions would be abolished immediately.
Therefore, they could not afford to offend Du Qi.
They had to leave a good impression on Du Qi.
Zeng Cheng and his men walked forward. It did not take long for them to arrive in front of Du Qi's group. Zeng Cheng lifted his robe and knelt on the ground. He said, "I am Zeng Cheng, the county magistrate of Yongye County. Welcome, young master."
"Welcome, young master!"
The rest of the people also spoke in unison.
Everyone had fawning smiles on their faces.
Du Qi was riding a horse. He frowned slightly when he saw Zeng Cheng and the other officials kneeling on the ground. Previously, when Moledo and Ceng Cheng were fighting, he had captured Ceng Cheng and made Ceng Cheng surrender.
Back then, Zeng Cheng was quite arrogant. However, he was now in such a situation.
Du Qi was a little disappointed.
Du Qi did not say much. After all, Yongye County had always been under Zeng Cheng's rule. He was capable. However, Zeng Cheng was frightened by Du Qi when he was captured. That was why he was in such a situation.
Du Qi nodded and said, "You may rise."
"Thank you, young master."
Zeng Cheng and the other officials thanked him in unison. Then, they stood at the side respectfully.
