Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 423 Don’t Dare to Lie

Yang Youcai arrived at the gate of the government office and peeked inside from a distance.

A clerk standing at the gate of the yamen waved at him when he saw this.

Yang Youcai sneaked closer with a smile on his face.

"Hey, this official, I heard that we need to register our identity and also receive money and food..."

The clerk was assigned to be responsible for reception at the gate because the notice had been posted for a long time and no one came to register.

Finally seeing a Yang Youcai, he praised him enthusiastically.

"I can tell you're a scholar, you're a sensible person. You're offering free money, food, and land, yet no one wants them. Isn't that ridiculous?"

"Hey, who said it wasn't? It's here."

"Please come in. There are officials in charge of registration. As long as the situation you describe is true, everything will be redeemed."

When Yang Youcai heard this, he became much bolder and stepped into the government office.

Hu Dapeng and his friends had nothing to do, so they waited in front of their house and chatted.

In less than half an hour, Yang Youcai was seen walking back from a distance with a happy look on his face.

He also carried a lot of things in his hands and on his shoulders.

Four or five neighbors stared blankly at him as he approached.

Yang Youcai passed by a few people, just nodded at them, and walked quickly towards home.

Hu Dapeng was unwilling and reached out to grab him.

"Old Yang, what's going on? Did the government give you money?"

Yang Youcai struggled for a while, but failed to break free from Hu Dapeng's hand, so he could only smile bitterly.

"You saw it, the rations are thirty kilograms, and the identity badge has been re-registered and confirmed."

Hu Dapeng's eyes widened. "Thirty kilograms? How many people's rations?"

"There are six people in my family, and each person gets 30 kilograms of grain per month. The government said it's a loan, and we have to pay it back after we grow the crops, but there's no interest."

"What about the money?"

"hehe..."

Yang Youcai just smiled foolishly and didn't say anything.

Old Yan also came over and looked Yang Youcai up and down nervously.

"You have talent. We have been neighbors for decades. We dare not lie to you."

Yang Youcai was anxious: "Old Yan, the food is here, the money..."

He patted his chest, then struggled to break free from Hu Dapeng's hand and strode away carrying the food.

Hu Dapeng was stunned for a moment and slapped his thigh.

"Holy crap, this is real! This idiot got there first."

After saying that, he hurried home.

Several neighbors also understood what was going on and immediately turned around and dispersed.

The clerk standing at the gate of the yamen saw Yang Youcai off, leaned against the wall bored, and looked up at the sky.

Unexpectedly, within half an hour, someone came running towards them.

The clerk hurried forward to receive him, but before he could say a few words, another person came running towards him.

He had no choice but to point to the entrance of the yamen and let them go in and register on their own.

In half a day, the government office in the city was crowded with people.

The clerk was sweating profusely and was shouting at people to line up, trying hard to maintain order.

After completing the registration, they came out of the yamen with a smile on their faces, carrying grain bags and bulging chests.

The crowd just roared.

"It's true, I said the Qingshui Army is different."

"Mr. Zhongyuan, have you ever seen anyone in Zhenxi who has been granted a title by the Emperor?"

"You were talking about using your head as a chamber pot."

"You're talking nonsense. Your chamber pot uses a human head."

"You're the one who's talking nonsense. You've wasted my time. If the money and grain are distributed, I'll go to your house for dinner."

"They've already distributed the money and food, what does it have to do with me?"

There was a burst of shouting and cursing.

The petty official was unable to maintain order, so he quickly asked for permission to dispatch a team of soldiers.

Gradually, the crowd was threatened with knives and guns and reluctantly formed two teams.

After registration at the government office, someone else took the list and went door to door to verify the situation.

Once someone is found to have committed fraud, the money, grain and land they have been given will be confiscated immediately and you will be marked out.

Not only will livelihood become a problem, but personal reputation will also be ruined.

Under the leadership of Wen Cheng and Chu Shijie, the prefectural capital began to implement various reform measures.

All the officials in the government office, big and small, were busy and exhausted.

In front of Lingdouzi Castle.

Bai Jing brought a few guards and greeted Lin Feng and his party at the official road outside the castle.

Lin Feng, together with several senior generals, chatted and laughed with Bai Jing as they entered the castle gate.

Inside the command center, Lin Feng looked at the piles of reports on the desk.

These reports have already passed through Bai Jing's hands, and opinions are written on them, but they have not been confirmed by Lin Feng.

Bai Jing brought the tea to Lin Feng, then gently massaged his shoulders and neck.

"Lin Feng, you really ran off to the capital city by yourself. You're being a bit reckless."

Lin Feng laughed: "Why, you don't even call me brother anymore?"

"Hmph, I feel aggrieved."

"If it weren't for this trip, I would have really forgotten the spirit of hard work in the beginning. Sitting behind the scenes for so long, my body and mind have rusted."

Bai Jing was shocked and asked, "You even fought with someone?"

"Well, a few martial arts masters, but they all died under my sword."

Lin Feng was quite proud.

"A martial arts master? How skilled?"

"Haha, anyway, not as tall as me."

"You are so beautiful."

The two joked for a while and then got down to business.

"How's the situation over there?"

"The new chief, Wanyan Wuji, has arrived at the camp with 20,000 men."

"Nothing happening?"

"There's no major movement for now, but there are a lot more Tartar cavalry nearby."

Lin Feng pondered: "This is just a thief who still has the will to steal. He's used to it. It's a disease that needs to be treated."

"How do we treat him, brother?"

Lin Feng turned his head and smiled at Bai Jing: "Hehehe... I just made a new weapon, let them have a taste of it."

Bai Jing looked curious: "What weapon? Is it your thunder?"

"Well, you know everything."

"Alas, you've made such a big noise, I'm afraid the whole world will know about it."

"Alright, if you know, you know. The Tartars may not yet know how powerful it is. Go collect a large amount of saltpeter, charcoal, and sulfur, and then make Wanyan Wuji sick."

Lin Feng smiled.

Wanyan Wuzhi led 20,000 troops and entered the camp, welcomed by Wanyan Qingtian and other generals.

In the central military tent, Wanyan Wuzhi sat in Wanyan Qingtian's position, while Wanyan Qingtian sat in the right row with Wendihan and Bilan.

The first person on the left is a short and stocky silver-armored stone pillar, and below him is a tall and strong silver-armored warrior, Du Lie.

Everyone had a sullen look on their faces and the tent was very quiet.

After a moment, Wanyan Wuji said in a deep voice.

"Of the original five camps, only one remains. Wanyan Qingtian, how did you fight this battle?"

Before Wanyan Qingtian could say anything, he heard Du Lie shouting.

"More than 40,000 people, half of them were killed, how dare you sit here?"

A man in silver armor seemed very arrogant for daring to scold Wanyan Qingtian in golden armor.

Wanyan Qingtian frowned and looked at Wanyan Wuji, only to see that he had no expression on his face.

"There's a man named Lin Feng in the west of the town. His Qingshui Army is very powerful and difficult to deal with. I've done my best."

"Hmph, the Qingshui Army, are they difficult to deal with?"

Du Lie snorted in disdain.

Wendy coughed and said, "Master, this Lin Feng is really powerful. We need..."

"Shut up, you're trying to show off to others. Are you still a real man?"

Wanyan Wuji scolded.
