Chapter 170 Xia Jing is here, everyone... is here! (Additional update 2)
"Shi Yong and Zhuang Ziqing have also completed the third ring of the mission for this term of Si Nong reserve in Shiyang Dongtian."
"They have the Tiger Dragon Army as their backing, and their situation is better than Zhao Xing's. However, these two have each failed to receive the best evaluation once." The third shadow commented.
"Third ring, give Zhao Xing some human resources. Transfer Xia Jing from the Azure Dragon Military Division to be the county lieutenant, and send some of the Shenwei Army's reserve troops over as well."
"He also transferred a small number of the people he was familiar with during the actual breakout."
The third shadow was emitting golden light, and the golden light vaguely showed the shape of a dragon wandering on its body. Obviously, the third shadow had a higher status.
"Well, this Zhao Xing is indeed worth training." The other two phantoms also nodded in agreement, "Let's do as King Tianyan wishes."
Yuncheng, Shao Wanjie's residence.
Zhao Xing was lying on a chair, leisurely enjoying the massage service of the cat-eared alien girl, while the phantom straw man 'Shao Wanjie' and the 'butler' were watching from the side.
"Master, when will the banquet start?" a Minotaur soldier came to report.
"According to the highest standards, fine wine and delicious food, all the best!" The shape-shifting straw man imitated Shao Wanjie's voice and expression.
It was too realistic, and with the mist surrounding the hot spring, Zhao Xing also used fog and shadow to cover it up, so he easily fooled his subordinates.
"I want to chat and have fun with Lord Zhao for three days and three nights. After you finish setting up the banquet by the Wenyu Pool, don't come over to disturb us. Go and have fun by yourselves."
"Yes, sir." The Minotaur soldier didn't notice anything wrong.
Because Shao Wanjie has always been like this.
Sometimes he would play with his subordinates for days and nights without asking about state affairs.
What’s more, he has just won over a seventh-rank official?
The pair of twin girls of a different race were used to entertain Lord Zhao. It can be imagined that Lord Zhao was really valued.
Next, as expected, no one approached the hot spring, this entertainment area. Even when the servants brought wine and delicious food, they all lowered their heads and did not dare to look up.
Zhao Xing took a quick look and couldn't help but sigh that Shao Wanjie was living a really good life.
He basically only looks for young women, and he likes exotic races, such as Catwoman, Leopard Woman... most of them exude exotic charm.
Moreover, Shao Wanjie only let them wear a thick layer of gauze, and their exquisite and graceful figures were faintly visible. The delicious food and beautiful women formed a double sensory impact.
"Luxury, too luxurious!" Zhao Xing was enjoying the wine fed by the beauty and tasting the delicious food. He casually patted the butt of a foreign girl and said, "Go, dance for me. I'm going to criticize you severely!"
"Yes, yes." The foreign girl shyly stepped back and then danced on the lawn.
On both sides of the lawn, there were musicians playing drums, and the music was pleasant to the ears.
Zhao Xing crossed his legs, looking extremely relaxed.
Not long after the dinner started, Long Xiao came back.
After seeing the scene below, my jaw dropped.
"You, are you Zhao Xing? Or Shao Wanjie?"
Zhao Xing hugged a dancer and said with a smile: "Why, you didn't recognize me after going to the temple? Come on, sit down and have something to eat."
Long Xiao sat down suspiciously, and immediately two maids came over. He stretched out his hand to fend them off and dismissed them: "It's not good for you to do this..."
Zhao Xing said nonchalantly: "I have been training in Shiyang Cave for so long, can't I enjoy myself?"
"Besides, we still have to stay here until someone comes upstairs, so we have to pretend to be more convincing."
Long Xiao said: "How come you are so skilled? I throw you into this kind of situation and you don't feel out of place at all."
Zhao Xingyi said sternly: "I am looking at this with a critical eye, studying how these corrupt officials are corrupt, understanding their corrupt psychology, so as to always be vigilant."
"Really..." Long Xiao muttered, "What you said makes sense, but I always feel something is weird."
"Don't talk about this anymore." Zhao Xing asked, "Have you finished everything?"
Long Xiao transmitted his voice: "Well, among the five departments of Yuncheng, the temple is the only place that Shao Wanjie dared not to touch. As soon as I led people there, the temple priest Shen Mingyu immediately led people to interrogate in front of the statue of justice. The charges were quickly confirmed and he was imprisoned."
"And Shen Mingyu told me that as long as you send a signal, he can take action immediately and capture all the remaining members. He has already sent out Yin spirits to blockade every direction in Yuncheng."
Zhao Xing nodded: "It seems that Shen Mingyu also knows that this time is different, and his reaction is quite fast."
The temple has supervisory duties. Doesn’t Shen Mingyu know about Shao Wanjie’s bad deeds? Of course he knows and has even impeached him. But the higher-ups are suppressing his control and not responding. What can he do?
But this time when Long Xiao went there, the higher-ups responded quickly. Shen Mingyu immediately knew that the opportunity had come, so he quickly made an action plan.
Long Xiao said: "What should we do next?"
Zhao Xing said: "It has nothing to do with us. We are just helping. Shao Wanjie, a seventh-rank official, needs someone from above to interrogate him. We are not needed to arrest the remaining members."
"So what? Do nothing?" Long Xiao asked.
"It's not like we're doing nothing." Zhao Xing slapped the maid's buttocks and said, "Keep playing the music, keep dancing!"
Long Xiao: “…”
Zhao Xing and Long Xiao's enjoyment lasted for two days and two nights.
Early in the morning of the third day, a large number of officials arrived in Yuncheng.
Shao Wanjie's residence was surrounded by people.
In addition, personnel from Fengmingshan Ming Mine, Sinongjian, Tiangongsi, Temple, Military Department, and Medical Department went to conduct an inventory.
Anyone who has anything to do with Shao Wanjie will be taken away.
After the people above arrived, Zhao Xing and Long Xiao immediately revealed their identities and were then released.
As for how to deal with Shao Wanjie and his remnants, Zhao Xing didn't care and didn't even ask a single question, acting as if he was staying out of the matter.
"We have to get more people quickly." Zhao Xing looked at the list of officials from various departments in Yuncheng and saw that a group of people were missing. He suddenly looked worried.
Without help, he would not be able to complete the governance by himself. When he was training in Shiyang Cave, there were always enough people, and each department had no shortage of manpower and tools.
However, the actual situation is completely different. Up to now, he has only started the preparation work.
Ling Yuan led his men to shift the focus of their work and cooperated with the Ministry of Agriculture Supervisor Zhang Zhong, Bao Wenshan, Jiang Xi, and He Fengnian to carry out the construction of dikes and dams within Yuncheng County.
But this is far from enough.
"Why are you frowning, sir? Now that Shao Wanjie, this cancer, is gone, government agencies have gradually regained their efficiency." Ling Yuan looked at the young man in front of him with respect in his heart.
He is so powerful that he can bring down Shao Wanjie just by saying so.
You don’t understand… Zhao Xing had no desire to explain to Ling Yuan.
His current third-round mission is related to his future plans.
Zhao Xing didn't really come to Yuncheng to settle down, so he had to see results as soon as possible.
How did the natural disaster come about? It must have been caused by the southern barbarians.
Since they occupy the upper reaches of Canglan River, the water witch above will be busy sweating as long as he moves the water veins slightly.
Zhao Xing knew without thinking that at this time, the various southern barbarian tribes had already sent a large number of manpower to approach the front line of Jiutian Yingyuan Prefecture.
There is no way. If the Great Zhou moves, the southern barbarian tribes will have to move.
Whether the Great Zhou was just training or really wanted to fight, as long as one side made a move, the other side had to make preparations of the same magnitude. Was the Great Zhou just training or really wanted to fight? The Nanman were not sure. After all, for more than two hundred years, the Great Zhou would occasionally make some small moves, and the same was true for the Nanman tribes.
Zhao Xing estimated that many military fortresses had appeared in the Fengming Mountains and the upper reaches of the Canglan River to the south, and there was even a team of water wizards who had begun to aim at Yuncheng and make it the target of natural disasters.
Zhao Xing was never the kind of person who passively took a beating and just defended himself.
He had to quickly complete the defense work in Yuncheng and lead a team to fight back.
Only in this way can you gain enough military merit.
Zhao Xing had memorized the Nanman topographic map and power distribution map during the reign of Emperor Jing, because this was the only major battle during the Jingxinli period, which had been played over and over again by players in previous lives.
In later generations, military exercises during the reign of Emperor Wu were all based on this battle, and it would be hard for Jun Si Nong to forget it.
"Come quickly! I need people! People!" Zhao Xing shouted in his heart.
For someone of his level, the window of opportunity to gain merit in the Pingman War was not very long.
Because the war escalated not long after it started.
When it comes to a certain level, if Zhao Xing continues to participate, the danger will outweigh the opportunities. He will not participate anymore and will even try to find a way to get out.
Take advantage of the time when Emperor Jing is opening champagne and bestowing rewards at halftime to quickly grab the rewards and run away, otherwise the credit you gained earlier will be lost later because of defeat.
"This is the last large-scale drill in Shiyang Cave Heaven. I only need to equip 70% of the equipment according to the specifications of the new recruit camp at that time, and I can use it to snowball."
"I don't expect a top student like Xia Jing, but a few dozen of the next-level professionals will be enough." Zhao Xing thought silently. "I hope Yan San's luck can be brought into play this time."
On the fifth day after the Shao Wanjie case, at the hour of Mao, Zhao Xing finally received reinforcements from above.
He immediately received a notification from the official seal that the list of officials in Yuncheng had been updated.
Zhao Xing immediately took out the mirror and took a look.
The first batch of recruitments were from the three divisions of warriors, totaling 513 people, including the seventh-rank position of Yuncheng County Lieutenant, which was also restored!
What Zhao Xing didn't expect was that among the first group of people, he saw the names of Xia Jing, Zhang Jie, Chen Fang and Hu Bing!
"Hahaha, my luck has exploded. Xia Jing was assigned here! Seventy-five people from the four major military divisions have arrived. Awesome!"
Zhao Xing suddenly jumped up from the bed excitedly.
"Meow?" Aotian Miao woke up from a deep sleep, yawned, and looked at Zhao Xing who was jumping and jumping on the bed in confusion. What was he so excited about so early in the morning?
I really don't understand humans.
Zhao Xing put on his clothes quickly.
Bring the three eighth-rank officers on duty at the Sinongjian, Zhang Zhong, Jiang Xi, and He Fengnian, onto the Swordfish flying boat.
Immediately flew out of Yuncheng.
To show his appreciation, he even went out of the city three miles to meet him.
After parking, the signal tower on the Swordfish Flying Boat kept lighting up.
Zhao Xing also cleared the haze in the sky, making the weather as warm as spring.
If he had the conditions, he would have wanted to call a group of musicians and dancers to serve as a welcoming guard of honor!
"Whoo~"
Not long after, a medium-sized tiger-dragon flying boat descended from the sky.
Soon Xia Jing jumped down from above.
As soon as he entered the territory of Yuncheng, he immediately looked at the list of Yuncheng officials.
After discovering Zhao Xing's name, Xia Jing was also quite happy.
The Du Shui Ling is actually Zhao Xing, what an amazing character!
If Zhao Xing is the military minister of agriculture, what can stop Xia Jing from making great achievements in this internship test?
"Brother Zhao!" Xia Jing trotted over. After seeing that it was really Zhao Xing and not someone with the same name, the prince of the Marquisate was also a little excited, "I didn't expect it to be you!"
"Brother Xia!" Zhao Xing also ran over and held Xia Jing's arm. "It feels like a long time since we last met!"
The words were a bit corny, but this was the fashion at that time, and many people would hug each other and call him brother when they were happy.
"With you as the Water Commander, I don't have to worry about natural disasters at all!" Xia Jing said with a smile.
"Now that you are the county lieutenant, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief." Zhao Xing said with a smile.
At this moment, a slightly teasing voice appeared:
"It seems that Brother Zhao only has Brother Xia in his eyes. He doesn't need us at all. Brothers, let's go."
"Brother Chen!" Zhao Xing immediately let go of Xia Jing's hand. "How could that be? It was me, Zhao, who neglected me. I apologize, I apologize."
"How do you compensate us?" Zhang Jie said with a smile, "You can't treat us with Ma Yu fruit, right? The young marquis can't stand it."
"Ugh~" Xia Jing seemed to have triggered some memory, and her body reacted and she immediately grabbed Zhang Jie's neck: "Asshole, who told you to bring it up!"
"Brother Zhang, you still have the nerve to say this?" Chen Fang laughed, "You were hugging Commander Liu's thighs and crying, 'Grandma!'"
"Hahahaha." Everyone burst into laughter.
"How can you all eat the same food as during training when you come here? Of course you have to eat something good!" Zhao Xing said proudly, "It just so happens that I got a batch of good things a few days ago. You all just follow me into the city. I will not let you down!"
"Let's go into the city!"
"Hahaha, hope there aren't any fish again."
"Ugh~ you bastard!"
The arrival of Xia Jing and his group was undoubtedly a shot in the arm for Zhao Xing. Not only did these people have outstanding abilities, but they also had their own background. For example, Xia Jing's Tiger Dragon Flying Boat was more advanced than his Swordfish Flying Boat. In addition, this group of people had connections and could obtain advanced intelligence, which was what Zhao Xing wanted most.
But the surprises are not over yet.
On the second day, the second group of people came, mainly mechanical engineers and agricultural officers.
Zhao Xing saw familiar faces such as Wang Ji, Han Bing, Che Shihai, and Cao Shuang among them.
On the third day, the third group of people arrived, mainly doctors and priests.
Zhao Xing glanced at the list and saw that Yuan Yang and Zhang Yi were there too!
"We're back. I feel it. Everyone is back!"
"The three fortunes of Yan San are well-deserved!"
Zhao Xing grinned like a fool. What could be more joyful than running into his old teammates?
Tan Tai Ming said: Yes.
As Yuncheng is a county-level city but has not received adequate supplies for many years, the prefectural government decided to make a one-time replenishment of the materials that should have been transferred to each department in Yuncheng over the past ten years.
Officials of this term do not need to deal with past accounts. Everything is based on the end of March of the 17th year of the Jingxin calendar!
