As time passed, more and more people moved to the left. They were all standing on the left.
In the end, there were less than 20 people who wanted to leave the army.
These 20 people stood alone.
Du Qi nodded and said, "Since you have decided, those who want to stay and those who want to leave have thought it through. I won't say more. Those who want to stay, get into formation and get ready to go back. Those who want to leave, go up the mountain and pack your bags. I hope that after you leave, there won't be any more violations of the law. Otherwise, you will be killed! "
When the bandits who were about to leave heard this, they immediately flew away.
Du Qi asked the generals in the army to rearrange the people who were left behind, and then waited quietly. In less than two hours, everything on the mountain had been checked. Xue Rengui, Xiao Yuanqi, and Guo Xiaozheng had already gone down the mountain.
In fact, there were not many supplies in the mountain stronghold.
Money was limited.
The money they found was only 68,000 strings of cash. There were only 10,000 dans of grain on the mountain. In addition, there were some livestock on the mountain. Such a number was not much for Jin Shan, which had 800 people.
Xiao Yuanqi, Liu Zhengxi, and Guo Xiaozheng went down the mountain and joined Du Qi. They escorted all the supplies, including food, money, and livestock, and started to go back.
On the way back, Du Qi had already arranged someone to go to the county government of Jiuquan County to tell Ye Daosheng that the Jin Shan bandits had been taken down.
Ye Daosheng immediately called Yang Huaizhuang, the county deputy, over.
In addition, Ye Daosheng's assistant was also invited.
Ye Daosheng's assistant was called Shen Qiu.
Before, Shen Qiu was just a teacher in the Ye Family's private school. He was responsible for teaching the Ye Family's children knowledge and letting them study. After Ye Daosheng became the county magistrate, although he had the county deputy, the county deputy, and the assistants of various departments, in fact, he didn't have his own confidant. He needed an assistant who could give him advice.
Coincidentally, Ye Daosheng returned home and tested the children on their homework. They all answered very well.
Ye Daosheng called Shen Qiu over to give her a reward.
After some discussion, Ye Daosheng felt that Shen Qiu was a good person, so he hired Shen Qiu as his advisor to help him plan.
Ye Daosheng's eyes swept over Shen Qiu and Yang Huaizhuang as he spoke, "Just now, Pacifying West King has sent back a message saying that his troops have swept the Golden Mountain's bandits and killed their leader, Shen Biao. Now, the Golden Mountain Gang no longer existed in Jiuquan County. Our Jiuquan County has one less threat. Ping Xi Wang has sent back a message, what do you think? "
Yang Huaizhuang said, "County Magistrate, I think the reason why Ping Xiwang sent this letter is to ask you to publicize this matter and let all the people in Jiuquan County know about it. After all, if he did a good deed but didn't publicize it, it would be like walking in the dark. Now that Ping Xi Wang is in the Western Regions, he wants to make some achievements. Therefore, the matter of him taking down the Gold Mountain Bandits is the first big thing that must be publicized. "
"Not bad, not bad!"
Ye Daosheng stroked his beard and nodded. "Of course we have to carry out the publicity. Deputy County Magistrate Yang, you're in charge of this matter. Be sure to let all the people in Jiuquan County know about this matter. "
"Yes!"
Yang Huaizhuang solemnly complied.
Shen Qiu was in his early forties with an ordinary appearance, but he had read a lot and was quite resourceful. The only flaw was that Shen Qiu was born in a poor family and had been framed for having a bad moral character, so he had no way out.
In other words, he had enough to eat and wear.
That was all.
Shen Qiu's eyes lit up as he said, "County Magistrate, Ping Xiwang has returned in triumph. Although he only sent back a message, for you, it's not just a matter of announcing a great victory. "
Ye Daosheng slightly leaned forward and said, "Mr. Shen, tell me what else this official needs to do?"
Shen Qiu said, "A man always has something to seek in this world, whether it's fame, fortune, or what he wants. Although Ping Xiwang is very young and wise, he still needs fame and fortune. "
"Now that Ping Xiwang has returned in triumph, County Magistrate, please issue a notice to inform the people in Jiuquan County that County Magistrate will personally lead all the officials in Jiuquan County to welcome Ping Xiwang's triumphant return."
"The notice is to call all the people who are willing to go to welcome Ping Xiwang."
"Just imagine, Ping Xiwang's triumphant return, countless people will line the streets to welcome him and cheer for his return. How can Ping Xiwang not be excited after seeing such a grand scene? How can he not be grateful for County Magistrate's arrangement? "
Shen Qiu spoke frankly and confidently, "Even if Ping Xiwang doesn't say anything, he will definitely remember County Magistrate's efforts and will have a good impression of County Magistrate."
"Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!!!"
Ye Daosheng burst into laughter, looking very proud.
Shen Qiu's suggestion was excellent.
Ye Daosheng gave Shen Qiu a thumbs up and praised him. He then said, "Mr. Shen's plan seems simple, but it's to his liking, giving Ping Xiwang great praise. Just imagine, the people are cheering for Ping Xiwang's return and shouting 'long live Ping Xiwang'. Under such a scene, Ping Xiwang's heart will definitely be excited. This plan is indeed incomparably ingenious. "
Yang Huaizhuang glanced at Shen Qiu.
He also praised him inwardly.
Ye Daosheng's aide was really amazing. This matter of catering to his liking was done without leaving any trace.
He was an expert.
Shen Qiu smiled and said, "County Magistrate, you flatter me. Besides, we still have one more thing to do. Although we want to call on the people to welcome Ping Xiwang, no one knows what the atmosphere will be like. "
"In case, I say in case, no one cheers and no one is excited about Ping Xiwang's victory, then the situation will not be good. Therefore, we must make the welcoming ceremony unprecedented. When the people gather, we must arrange our people in the crowd. "
"In order to guide the atmosphere of the scene."
"In this way, even if the people don't speak, as long as our people take the lead, the people's emotions will certainly be aroused. After all, Jiuquan County has been suffering from the attacks of bandits for so many years, and the situation has always been worrying. Under such a premise, the people will certainly be very excited, so with our people, we can better mobilize the situation. "
Shen Qiu's arrangement was extremely meticulous.
This was his habit. When doing things, he must carefully arrange things properly.
Hearing this, Yang Huaizhuang's heart was full of admiration.
He was vaguely jealous.
If he had such an aide by his side, who could devise strategies and give advice, then perhaps he himself would not be in the current situation. Perhaps he could go higher and farther.
Yang Huaizhuang praised, "Mr. Shen's arrangement is indeed reasonable. County Magistrate, let's arrange it like this. The road from the county to Jinshan is not particularly far. It is estimated that the team led by Ping Xiwang will arrive at the county around 5 pm. Therefore, the time left for us is actually not much. At present, we must speed up the arrangement and preparation. "
Ye Daosheng ordered, "County Magistrate Yang, hurry up and arrange it. In short, this matter must be arranged well. If you don't arrange it well, I will punish you. "
"I will not disappoint the County Magistrate."
Yang Huaizhuang said seriously, "Please rest assured, County Magistrate. I only need two hours. In two hours, I guarantee that the news of Ping Xiwang's victory will be known to the whole city, and countless people will know that the County Magistrate is ready to welcome Ping Xiwang. "
"Go!"
Ye Daosheng waved his hand.
Yang Huaizhuang also knew that time was pressing, so he hurriedly left.
