Dongjiang City

With the destruction of the "Lingnan Jingguo Army", the power of most of the local gentry in Dongjiang City collapsed. The few gentry who did not openly oppose Lin Hongfei were also found by Chu Liangyi, the current mayor of Dongjiang City, to give them up.

Cleaned up.

At this time, Dongjiang City, the provincial capital, had been almost completely cleaned up by Chu Liangyi, and the few remaining local gentry were determined to follow Lin Hongfei.

In Shili Pavilion outside Dongjiang City, a team of hundreds of people, headed by Chu Liangyi, was waiting for Lin Hongfei's arrival.

At this time, Han Zhengxia, the head of the Han family, and Han Wenyuan, the head of the third bedroom, came up to him. Han Zhengxia said to Chu Liangyi with a flattering look on his face:

"Mayor Chu, when I see Marshal Lin later, I hope you can put in a few kind words for me!"

At the beginning, the Han family, one of several large families in Dongjiang City, chose to follow the then governor of Lingnan Province, Zhang Zhiqing, and join the "Lingnan Jingguo Army".

The first, second, and fifth houses of the Han family were all awarded by the Jingguo Army in Lingnan, and they were determined to fight against Lin Hongfei to the end.

Fortunately, Han Zhengxia, the third roommate of the Han family, noticed the gap between Zhang Zhiqing and Lin Hongfei in time, and believed that the Lingnan Jingguo Army would definitely lose. So he quickly led the Han family's third room to secretly contact Chu Liangyi, and became a thorn in the side of the Jiangbei Army within the Lingnan Jingguo Army.

.

Later, when the Lingnan Jingguo Army faced the Jiangbei Army's attack, they had no power to fight back. Within a few days, they were completely defeated. The members of the Han family's first, second, and fifth houses died, and only the third house did not suffer any losses.

.

After this battle, the family voice of the Han family in Dongjiang naturally transferred to the hands of the third family.

This time the Jiangbei Army was able to easily defeat the Lingnan Jingguo Army, and Han Zhengxia also put in some effort, so Chu Liangyi also called him to welcome Lin Hongfei's arrival.

Knowing that they would have the opportunity to meet Lin Hongfei, Han Zhengxia, Han Wenyuan and others were so happy that they couldn't sleep for several days. They really wanted to win Lin Hongfei's favor at this welcome ceremony, so as to get the best for themselves and the Han family.

benefits.

Chu Liangyi glanced at Han Zhengxia, Han Wenyuan and others who were all smiling, and naturally knew what they were thinking, so he smiled and said:

"Xia Gong, don't worry too much. I have followed the Marshal for many years, and I am most familiar with the Marshal's temperament."

"The commander-in-chief always rewards meritorious deeds and punishes delinquents!"

"In this battle with Zhang Zhiqing and the Jingguo Army, you, the third branch of the Han family, have contributed a lot. The commander-in-chief will not treat you badly!"

Han Zhengxia nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, I have known about the Marshal's character for a long time, but when we first met the Marshal, there must be something wrong with his words and deeds. I hope Mayor Chu can help put in a good word.

A few words!”

Chu Liangyi smiled and said: "Don't worry, Mr. Xia, the commander is not so narrow-minded. As long as you are truly loyal to the commander, the commander will not care about trivial things!"

"No matter how beautiful your words are, they can't compare to doing a practical thing for the commander-in-chief. I think Mr. Xia should know this truth!"

When Han Zhengxia heard this, with a hint of compliment on his face, he quickly responded: "That's natural. I still know this truth. Thank you Mayor Chu for reminding me!"

Next to him, several local gentry who were also invited to attend the welcome ceremony looked at Han Zhengxia with a bit of envy and jealousy in their eyes.

After the Jingguo Army incident, the original wealthy gentry families such as Han, Mu, and Xu were confiscated by soldiers led by Chu Liangyi. All the wealth accumulated by these families for generations was confiscated.

After the fall of these big families, a large amount of private interests were naturally released. Chu Liangyi had decided to distribute these private interests to the gentry of Dongjiang City who had previously supported the Jiangbei Army.

The principle of distribution is to see who has made the greatest contribution in defeating the Jingguo Army.

Obviously, the Han family headed by Han Zhengxia can naturally get the greatest benefits!

The third branch of the Han family has been suppressed for many years, and this time it is finally their turn to take the lead!

However, envy is envy, and jealousy is jealous. The remaining gentry have no intention of just admitting defeat. They have already made up their mind that in the coming days, they must spare no effort to support the Jiangbei Army, and wait until they encounter these distributed benefits.

When something good happens, you can also eat a big piece.

Everyone has been waiting near Shiliting since eight o'clock in the morning. As time goes by, it is now noon.

Although they had waited for a long time, there was no look of impatience on everyone's faces. They all patiently looked into the distance, waiting for Lin Hongfei's arrival.

When the watch hands on Chu Liangyi's wrist stopped at 1:13, the motorcade carrying Lin Hongfei finally appeared in everyone's sight!

"The commander is here!"

Just four words shook the spirits of everyone present, and the fatigue that had just filled their bodies was instantly swept away. Everyone immediately straightened their clothes, stood up straight, and put on the most flattering smiles, waiting for Lin Hongfei.

arrival.

Soon, with the roar of the engine, the motorcade stopped outside Shili Pavilion.

A captain of the guard quickly jumped out of the passenger seat of a car, and then trotted all the way to open the rear door of the car. His right hand with a white glove was suspended at the same height as the roof of the car.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Hongfei, dressed in general uniform, stepped out of the car, and his tall and muscular figure appeared in front of everyone.

Chu Liangyi walked over quickly, saluted and said: "Commander, my subordinates led the military and civilian representatives of Dongjiang City to welcome the commander-in-chief. It is a great blessing for the soldiers and civilians of Dongjiang to have the commander-in-chief come in person!"

Lin Hongfei laughed and said: "Liangyi, we old brothers should stop engaging in this arrogant thing. It's too outsider!"

Chu Liangyi also smiled: "How can that be done? It's hard for the commander to come to Dongjiang City, so he has to put up a big battle!"

"Farewell, it's better to engage in less battles like this. You know I don't like these things the most!"

"Okay, when the marshal comes next time, I will just bring a few old brothers here to greet him."

"Hey, that's right!"

After the two chatted and laughed for a while, Lin Hongfei looked at the so-called Dongjiang City military and civilian representatives behind him.

Naturally, there is no need to introduce those military and political officials. Basically, they all came from the Jiangbei military and political system and were all Lin Hongfei's old subordinates.

As for those representatives of the local gentry, Lin Hongfei looked a little strange.

At this time, Chu Liangyi called Han Zhengxia and others over, and then introduced them to Lin Hongfei one by one.

It was an extremely rare opportunity to communicate with Lin Hongfei face to face. Everyone suppressed the excitement in their hearts and greeted Lin Hongfei with smiles on their faces, fearing that they had failed to do something well and made Lin Hongfei dissatisfied.
