    The autumn weather in September is refreshing and refreshing.

    The autumn harvest has been completed in Lujiang County, and the people in every household have food and are smiling.  Especially this year, Lujiang County has another good harvest year.  The most important thing is that the government announced that taxes will be exempted this year, and corvee labor will also be reduced or exempted. Under these policies, the people's lives will be better, and every household will have a surplus of food.

    All counties in Lujiang County completely surrendered to Wang Qi.  Xunyang County, Juchao County and Wanxian County in the south are also under Wang Qi's control, and everything is progressing in an orderly manner.

    On this day, Qu Jin came to the military camp where Wang Qi was.

    Wang Qi mainly settled in the military camp.

    The Prefect¡¯s Mansion is still left to Gu Kang. After all, Gu Kang is still temporarily handling the affairs of Lujiang County.

    As Wang Qi¡¯s adviser, Qu Jin stayed with Wang Qi and was responsible for assisting Wang Qi in handling government affairs and also advising on military affairs.

    After Qu Jin stood still, he saluted and said: "Your Highness, I just received the news that Gu Kang's family has been delivered and they have successfully met up with Gu Kang. Next, Gu Kang will send the people to Nanyang County. Things here in Lujiang County  , and it comes to an end.¡±

    Wang Qidao: "There is nothing going on in Lujiang County itself. We don't know how the Chu State will respond for the time being. At the moment, we have to stay for a while to see what kind of war will happen."

    "Report!"

    At this moment, soldiers entered.

    The soldier stood still and said, "Your Highness, there is news from Prefect Lu. Please read it."

    Wang Qi took the letter and read it quickly.  After Wang Qi saw the content, his brows rose, slightly surprised.  Because the content in the letter is news about Yuan Wei.

    The letter stated that more than 10,000 elite troops led by Yuan Wei arrived at the border of Jiujiang County and have been wandering around the border and have never directly invaded Jiujiang County.

    Wang Qi was surprised because Yuan Wei was so timid.  Or maybe Yuan Wei is still thinking about killing people with a borrowed knife and using Gu Kang to weaken Wang Qi, and then Yuan Wei can fish in troubled waters.

    No matter what the situation is, at least Jiujiang County is extremely safe for the time being.

    Wang Qi told Qu Jin the news about Yuan Wei and said in a deep voice: "Jiujiang County is safe for the time being. So what we have to do is to stabilize Lujiang County and resolve the war with Chu State."

    Qu Jin said: "Your Highness, I believe that the Chu State may retaliate. However, although the Chu State is strong, the domestic situation may not be stable after Xiong Tai's death. Even if the Chu State sends troops, it will be limited. Our strength is completely  We can leave it to Yuan Wei and try to capture Yangzhou directly and destroy Yuan Wei."

    Wang Qidao: "It will be a matter of time to capture Yuan Wei, but we don't want to start the war now. The Qi State is still developing, and Yuan Wei is not weak and has enough strength. Now we need to consolidate the local foundation first, and then win it bit by bit.  Yuan Wei."

    Qu Jin said: "I understand, I understand."

    "Report!"

    At this moment, another soldier entered.

    The soldier said: "Your Highness, there is another urgent message from Prefect Lu from eight hundred miles away."

    Wang Qi took it and opened the letter to check.  The last letter was sent at the beginning, but I was not in a hurry, so I rushed a little slower.  This letter was more important, and the soldiers were ordered to deliver it as quickly as possible.

    So the two letters before and after were delivered almost at the same time.

    Wang Qi immediately laughed after watching it.

    Qu Jin was a little curious and asked, "Why is Your Highness laughing?"

    Wang Qidao: "The reason why I am laughing is because of the urgent news from Eight Hundred Miles just sent. When Yuan Wei received the news of Gu Kang's defeat and surrender, he led his troops to withdraw, left in despair, and never attacked Jiujiang County again.  "

    Qu Jin couldn¡¯t help but laugh.

    Yuan Wei is really as timid as a mouse.

    Retreating directly before launching an attack is simply a waste of being the king of a country.

    Qu Jin's eyes were sharp and he said: "Yuan Wei has turned pale continuously and has lost his courage. Even Yuan Wei himself does not understand the principles of governing the place, nor does he know how to truly march and fight. If Yuan Wei retreats, attacking Yuan Wei in the future will be even more difficult.  It was smooth.¡±

    Wang Qidao: "That's the truth, Qu Jin, but are there other things?"

    Qu Jin said: ¡°No more!¡±

    Immediately, he stood up and left, but when he reached the gate of the camp, he was stopped by Wang Qi.

    Qu Jin turned around and said, "Do you have any other instructions, Your Highness?"

    Wang Qi said in a deep voice: "Mr. Qu, after the matter in Lujiang County is settled, Gu Kang will go to Yinling County, Jiujiang County to take up his post and officially assume the position of Yangzhou Shepherd."Here in Jiang County, there is no one to take care of it, and a new chief officer is needed.  Are you willing to serve as the governor of Lujiang County?  "

    Qu Jin said: "I don't want to do this because of my humble position."

    Wang Qi was even more surprised when he heard this.

    Not willing?

    It is surprising that Qu Jin is not willing to serve as a local official.

    Wang Qi asked: "Why?"

    Qu Jin said: "The reason is very simple. The humble position does not have the ability to govern the local area. If we talk about advising on various strategies, the humble function is very clear. If I are really allowed to make my own decisions, I will be in trouble. I am suitable for making suggestions, and there are many people in power.  Big difficulty. At the most critical moment, Lujiang borders the Chu State, which is very critical. Therefore, I sincerely request Your Highness to rearrange someone to serve as the governor of Lujiang County."

    Wang Qi flicked his sleeves and said: "What you have to do is just to govern the place, and it will not involve leading troops to fight. I will arrange for troops to be stationed for the defense of Lujiang County. Now that you don't govern the place,  In the future, why should we govern local areas? Why should we stay in the central government? Experience in local governance is a must."

    Qu Jin fell silent after hearing this.

    Wang Qi¡¯s words make sense, but he is a little unsure of himself.  After all, he has never even served as a local county magistrate.  It stands to reason that he should be happy and excited that Wang Qi has entrusted him with an important task.

    Qu Jin is not of such a temperament.

    He didn¡¯t want to disappoint people, and he didn¡¯t want to do anything he wasn¡¯t sure about, so he just said he didn¡¯t want to.

    Qu Jin glanced at Wang Qi, and when he saw Wang Qi's insistence, he stopped talking and said directly: "I obey your orders, and I should do my best to live up to His Highness's high expectations."

    Wang Qi nodded and said, "Go ahead and get ready to take over. You and Gu Kang are already familiar with each other, so we can hand over things well."

    "yes!"

    Qu Jin responded and turned around to leave.

    Wang Qi looked at Qu Jin¡¯s leaving figure with a smile on his face.  Qu Jin has never governed a place before, so he feels uneasy, which is also very good.  Only when you have a sense of awe can you do things conscientiously.

    The most important thing is that Wang Qi believes in Qu Jin's ability. Qu Jin can assist Gu Kang in governing Lujiang County. If Qu Jin himself is left to manage the place well, it will not be a difficult task.

    Wang Qi just needs to delegate power.

    Government affairs are left to Gu Kang and Qu Jin, and what they have to do is to capture the army.

    This is the most fundamental thing. At any time, political power comes from the barrel of a gun.  Once you master the army, you also master the fundamentals.  The daily drills of Wang Qi's army are still continuing and have never stopped.

    Time passes, and in the evening, the sun sets.

    Outside the military camp, a carriage stopped.

    An old man with a bright head, his back slightly stooped, got off the carriage and walked over.

    The person who came was surprisingly Xiong Yuanxiang.

    He set off from Xiangyang and entered Xunyang County, Lujiang County by waterway. Then he went all the way north and arrived in Shu County in a short time.  As soon as Xiong Yuanxiang stood at the gate of the camp, he did not hide his life at all, and said directly: "I, Xiong Yuanxiang, came from Chu State. I have important matters to meet with the King of Qi. Please inform me."

    He is thin and even has a slightly stooped back, but when he opens his mouth, he has the air of a superior person, which gives people an unquestionable feeling.

    After the soldiers heard this, they quickly went to report it.

    After Wang Qi heard the news, his face was filled with surprise. It was actually someone from Chu State, especially someone with the surname Xiong.

    Is it to avenge Xiong Tai?

    The Chu State, the surname Xiong, and the previous Xiong Tai, as well as the news reported by Qu Jin, were combined with many factors. Wang Qi naturally connected the news and made speculations.

    Wang Qi was not careless at all. He directly ordered: "Xiahou Hu!"

    "exist!"

    Xia Houhu immediately responded.

    Wang Qi said: "Go and gather three hundred personal guards and follow me out of the camp. There is an old man coming outside the camp. He is from the Chu country. He may be a master at the Grand Master Realm. We need to test him out."

    "yes!"

    Xia Houhu immediately went to deliver the order.

    In a short time, Xia Houhu mobilized three hundred personal guards.  He came to Wang Qi's camp and reported: "Your Highness, everything is ready. All three hundred personal guards are outside the camp."

    Wang Qi said: "Let's go!"

    He got up and walked out.

    Xia Houhu also followed.

    Wang Qi has speculation in his mind and will not take it lightly.  Because he has never fought against a Grand Master and does not know how powerful the Grand Master is, Wang Qi must be cautious. He will not make fun of his own life.

    He is not alone.

    Rather, it represents countless people.

    Wang Qi walked straight to the entrance of the camp. As soon as Wang Qi arrived at the entrance of the camp, he waved his hand and the three hundred soldiers under his command quickly stepped forward and surrounded Xiong Yuanxiang.

    Xiong Yuanxiang was stunned.

    That old face full of vicissitudes of life is full of surprise and disbelief. What's going on?

    It shouldn¡¯t be like this.

    Normally, shouldn't it be that he said he had something to ask for, and Wang Qi met him in the tent? Then when he saw Wang Qi, he launched a surprise attack and killed Wang Qi with one blow?

    Wang Qi, however, directly led his troops out and surrounded him.

    What operation is this?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)He must be careful, he will not play with his own life.
