Chapter 160: Li Shen's Attack

The inspection brought bad news to Chen Sheng.W★w★Wく.

8★1    z     W      .

CoM

Two villages more than ten miles downstream of the river have been beaten up because of water sources!

Hearing this news, Chen Sheng frowned. Recently, there have been more than ten private fights caused by river disputes in Minzhong County every day, but these fights are small events. Officials from all over the country can adjust conflicts and make peace. Chen Sheng does not need to worry too much.

But the surrounding area of ​​Dongye is different.

After deciding his capital in Dongye, according to the strategy of the court, in order to better monitor the nobles of the two small dynasties of Ou and Yue, Chen Sheng ordered all the families and relatives of these people to migrate to Dongye to facilitate monitoring and management. After these wealthy nobles moved to Dongye, they bought land and opened up roads. Many villages were vassals on their land, and the forces behind the villages were mixed. Once conflicts arose, it was likely that the fuse for turmoil in central Fujian would be caused.

However, what Chen Sheng was most worried about was finally born.

Due to the lack of rainfall for several days, the water level of the river has dropped severely. In order to preserve the crops in the land, some villages have built embankments on adjacent rivers, cut off the river, blocked the water flow, and irrigated their own land.

But after the river is cut off, the downstream river will be exhausted and cut off. Not to mention irrigating crops, even the villagers' drinking water will cause certain difficulties. So the contradiction is agitated.

The upper reaches of the river is Zuoping Township. Zuoping Township has a population of more than 800 households, all of which are named Zuo. This town is one of the fiefs given to Dong'ou Jun Zuo Wuzhu by the imperial court, and the backstage is quite large. Therefore, these Guizhou people rely on the influence of Dong'ou Jun and do not take the people of Dili downstream seriously. Dili has a larger population, with more than 1,400 households. Seeing that the people in Zuoping Township bully people like this, they could not breathe this breath. Last night, the inner child brought hundreds of young people to dig up the embankment built by Zuoping Township.

Zuoping Township also sent people to garrison on the embankment. When they saw someone coming to do damage, they immediately notified the elders of the village. As a result, the two sides immediately started fighting. The people of Yue were not afraid of death when they fought. In the melee, both sides suffered losses. They died, and dozens of people were disabled, and they had a draw.

However, the fight between the Yue people is not enough to be fought. The two sides agreed to call their friends today and agreed to hold a duel this afternoon to decide the ownership of the water source based on the victory or defeat. The local government sent people to stop it, but was arrested and locked up.

Upon hearing this, Chen Sheng was furious: "Why didn't you tell me such a serious matter earlier?" Zuoping Township is not simple, but Dili is not a soft persimmon that can be pinched casually. Many of the most powerful vine armored soldiers of the Minyue Army who surrendered with Zuo Yao at the time were from Dili, and there were many Dongyue Jun's confidant generals. Once damaged, Dongyue Jun will definitely react. Although Zuo Wuzhu and Zuo Yao are both deposed kings, their influence in Fujian is still there. If the two of them use this matter to make trouble, they will have a headache.

Chen Sheng did not dare to be careless when such a thing happened. He immediately ordered Feng Long to bring two thousand elite troops to shock and control the chaotic situation. He also hurried to the scene with Xu Wugui and others.

...

Dongye County Weifu.

After just a few days of renovation, the County Magistrate's Mansion has become magnificent and luxurious. Compared with the County Magistrate's Mansion, except for the scale, the other software and hardware are much better than the County Magistrate's Mansion.

In the living room, Li Shen had a faint reserved smile on his face and drank happily with the two noble guests sitting opposite him. The two guests, one is Dong'ou Jun Zuo Wuzhu, and the other is Dongyue Jun Zuoyao. Two former enemies are now ill and have long been close. After the county magistrate Li Shen took office, he extended an olive branch to the two and put forward some irresistible conditions for the two, which made them fall in love with each other.

The fight between the two villages was actually deliberately created under the instructions of Li Shen to cooperate with some actions. However, Zuo Wuzhu and Zuo Yao only played a role in fanning the flames. The villages that had been resentful for a long time were naturally detonated by him. Zuo Yao and Zuo Wuzhu did not know Li Shen's real purpose, and they thought that the newly appointed county magistrate was dissatisfied with the county magistrate and deliberately stumbling to him. Both of them were masters of political struggle, so they naturally understood the seriousness of factional struggle in the court. Behind Li Shen were Li Si and the entire civil servant group. Chen Sheng had only one teacher, Wei Liao, who was weak. When Li Shen gave a signal of invitation, the two would naturally make the choice they thought were reasonable. The two really needed the forces in the court to support them.

"Thank you for your help. Li Shen borrowed this glass of wine and expressed his sincere thanks to Dong'oujun and Dongyuejun!" Li Shen raised the wine and nodded to Zuo Yao Zuo Wuzhu.

"I dare not, I dare not, it's just a matter of raising hands!" Zuo Yao and Zuo Wuzhu dared not begged and quickly bowed back to the gift. In order to show respect for Li Shen, the two wore the lord clothes given by the emperor, which were extremely thick. With their hands and feet raised, the aura of the superior still existed.

Although the heat is hard to eliminate, there is no trace of heat in the small living room. A large piece of hollowed-out blue field jade is filled with ice cubes, and the cold air emitted is enough to offset the heat in the entire living room.

A guard walked in and leaned into Li Shen's ear and whispered a few words. A faint smile appeared on Li Shen's face, and he was in a great mood. He ordered the maids to pour wine and drink with the guests.

Before he could drink two glasses of wine, the housekeeper walked in and leaned into Li Shen's ear and said a few more words. Li Shen frowned slightly, with a little disgusted expression. He waved his hand and said, "Let him go back, and I will say that I will know and take someone there in person later."

After receiving Chen Sheng's order, Feng Long naturally would not accept such a reply. The county magistrate ordered the Tai to lead two thousand troops to stand by. After receiving the order, he hurried to the county magistrate's mansion. Since Li Shen arrived, the military talismans were all in the hands of Li Shen. If Feng Long wanted to bring so many soldiers and horses to leave the camp, he must have Li Shen's military talismans.

But Li Shen did not want to send troops to the talisman. Feng Long looked angry outside the county magistrate's mansion. He himself was Yuemin, and knew that the fight between Yuemin was different from that in the Central Plains. Every village of Yuemin was equal to a small kingdom. Once friction occurred, war and death followed. Feng Yue tribe itself had experienced too many wars, and Feng Long knew even more that in the current environment, what would it lead to once a war occurred.
