“Li Changshi, go forward a few miles and then you will reach Qianmagou. But it will be almost evening after you arrive. I may not be able to return to the city before dark.”
On the dirt road between the countryside, a team of hundreds of knights rode their horses. A middle-aged man in the team said to Li Tai while rushing to the road.
After hearing this, Li Tai smiled and said, “Please rest assured that Zhao Shenjun is in this regard. The tents and camps in the team are ready, and even if you stay in the wild, you will not be exposed to the fields. It is just that Zhao Shenjun has to suffer the pain of staying in this wild.”
“It is a humble honor to be able to serve as a guide and inspect the village with Li Changshi.”
After hearing this, the middle-aged man hurriedly said, “This person’s name is Zhao Yan, who was the Warehouse Army who helped Li Tai organize the warehouse affairs book before.
After experiencing the incident before, Zhao Yan saw Li Tai’s extremely efficient ability to process complicated data and information with his own eyes, and couldn’t help but regard him as an idol. When he learned that Li Tai was going to select a guide to accompany him to inspect the ruling period, Zhao Yan quickly volunteered.
Like Zhao Gui, Zhao Yan both came from the Tianshui Zhao family. But unlike the Zhao Gui family who lived in Wuchuan, Zhao Yan lived in Tianshui for generations. He was a member of the Zhao family of Tianshui who was truly and well-off. Because of this background, he was recruited by Dugu Xin as a servant of the prefecture.
On the way, Li Tai asked again: “Zhao Shenjun, is this Qianmagou really the deepest part of the crux of the rural hatred on the surface. As long as it touches it, it can attract the attention of the masses?”
“I live in the village all year round. Although I don’t know all about the rural affairs, I remember most of what I heard and experienced. If I talk about the hatred of family and country for many lifetimes, it is really hard to assert. But if the Chief Secretary asked only the hatred between a few households in the village, Qianmagou is indeed the most cruel place in the rural fighting in recent years!”
After hearing this, Zhao Yan quickly said seriously: “The Li family and Quan family are both major families in the county, gathering their relatives and friends. There are almost thousands of people on each side, gathering near Qianmagou. After fighting for a whole afternoon, hundreds of deaths and injuries were each.
If it weren’t for disturbing the residents of other families in the vicinity to report the officials, the Hanoi Duke urgently dispatched people to calm down in this way, and there were more casualties and injuries. The blood feud between the two sides was formed, and even the prestige of the Hanoi Duke was hard to say… “
When talking about the rural battle that shocked the countryside and even the entire Longyou several years ago, Zhao Yan was also sighing, and Li Tai couldn’t help but widen his eyes after hearing this.
After a brief understanding of Qinzhou’s state affairs, Li Tai felt that although Dugu Xin was arbitrarily arbitrarily, his control over the local sentiment and situation was really not deep enough, so he wanted to strengthen this through some methods.
If you want to enhance your influence in the village, you must first enhance your sense of existence. If everyone doesn’t know that there is someone like him in Longyou, or they deliberately ignore him, even if they have a good idea, can they make a fuss?
He knows the many nobles in LongyouSince the Han Dynasty, he has moved the Guanzhong Jushi here to guard the border for the country. In addition to the planning of the Di and Qiang tribes, there are more than twenty families in Tianshui County that have famous reputations.
So many powerful aristocratic families with different powers live here for generations, and their connections and frictions are bound to be indispensable. Therefore, Li Tai planned to use a grudge to attract the attention of the masses, and then properly resolve the grudge incident in the grudge incident. This not only demonstrates the sense of existence but also reflects his ingenious means, but also helps him quickly gain a foothold and cultivate his own power. It is simply a win-win situation.
He thought this idea was good, but he didn’t expect that Zhao Yan, who joined the army, picked a village struggle for him with thousands of people. Dugu Xin couldn’t handle it even if he came forward, and one of them was also named Li.
“Is Zhao Shenjun, is this Li clan involved in the fight?…”
Li Tai hesitated for a moment before asking Zhao Yan again.
Zhao Yan nodded after hearing this and replied softly, “It is one of the villagers of Li Changshi’s clanyuan…”
After Li Tai heard this, his psychological activities became richer. The Li family in Longxi is already of many ethnic groups, and even the Li family in Longxi is distributed in Wuchuan, far away in the south of the desert, so the local surname Li in Longxi naturally has no iron porcelain.
Although they are already very distant from each other’s blood and feelings, Li Tai was also quite upset when he heard that the tribes left behind in Longxi organized a village fight of such a large scale and had not yet supported each other.
