As noon approached, Li Jing, who was talking with Li Yan, received a report that it was Wang Jingwen, the governor of Dengzhou, Wang Jin, the envoy of Dengzhou navy, and Feng Zhang, the envoy of Daxiezhai, who had arrived on the island with hundreds of horses.

Li Jing quickly told Song Wen about the news. After hearing this, Song Wen's brows trembled for a few times, but was silent for a while before saying, "Since Wang Changshi, General Wang and General Feng are also here, let's send a few in to pick them up."

Wang Jingwen and his party soon arrived outside the castle city, and there were a lot of them, with more than 200. When the former king Jingwen was wearing a shallow round-necked official robe, Wang Jin and Feng Zhang were wearing mountain armor, phoenix winged helmets, lion straps on their waists, a kirin beast head swallowed shoulders, a long red silk cloak, and a ring sword hanging around their waists. The wharf was only a little distance from the castle city, but several people rode on the war horses transported from the boats.

Li Jing brought the main officers of the town to greet him, and then led them to Song Wen and Li Yin. Although Song Wen and Wang Jingwen were the most disagreeable, they were still hypocritical and polite in front of the crowd at this time and saluted each other. Feng Zhang and Wang Jin not only came by themselves, but also brought all the main officers under their command. Feng Xun, who came to Daxie Village before, was the deputy envoy, and now he brought all the generals of the five forts and seven garrisons in Daxie Village. Wang Jin also brought all the generals of the Navy camp here.

In addition to meeting Feng Zhang once after Cui Yunqing's departure banquet last time, this time Li Jing officially met Feng Zhang. When Li Jing came forward to pay a visit, Feng Zhang smiled and personally helped Li Jing up. He also personally introduced the main officers of Da Xie Village to him one by one, and the officers of each fortress also treated Li Jing very politely. If he had not met him, he would have thought it was a harmonious relationship between superiors and subordinates and friendly brothers. No one would have thought that both sides had been secretly plotting against each other.

Only when Wang Jin met Li Jing, his eyes twitched a few times, which seemed a little unnatural.

The civil and military officials of Dengzhou gathered in Shamen Island, and for a moment, there were horses everywhere on the island. Under the leadership of Li Jing, the officers followed behind to visit Shamen Town. The crowd visited the four temporary camps outside the city that burned the white land, and the thousand-hole pit dug at the foot of Phoenix Mountain, and the pile of pirate headless corpses that had just been thrown into the landfill before they could be filled. Then they also watched the Western City Wall that was completely destroyed in the battle last night, and the huge gap that was razed to the ground and the black and red blood stains sprinkled on the ground, the crowd reacted one by one.

Song Wen, Li Feng and others naturally praised Li Jing and others for their bravery and bravery. With hundreds of new recruits and some young and strong people, they not only resisted the sneak attacks of nearly a thousand pirates, but also wiped out the pirates.

Listening to their praise, Li Jing and others were also a little proud, especially Lin Wei and Wang Chong, who almost couldn't help but tell the crowd about the real battle situation of yesterday. Fortunately, Li Jing kept staring at them, and saw this and quickly stopped it carefully to avoid causing big trouble. If they knew that the pirates had more than 1,500 attacks yesterday, and there were more than 200 guards of the Wang family, the matter would have been a big deal. Not to mention whether it would have caused Song Wen and Wang Jin and others to fight directly on the island, but at least it can be imagined that those hundreds of prisoners would definitely not be able to keep them. Besides, the matter was really made public. Li Jing embezzled the Wang family's property and the craftsmen in the underground workshop might not be able to keep them.

Since Song Wen had previously stated that he would not touch Wang Jin for the time being, why should Li Jing cause trouble?

When the crowd entered the city, they were surprised to hear Li Jing pointing at the broken city wall and saying that he was going to rebuild the new city wall, the new city would be three times the original one, and the city wall would also use new drawings. When they saw the rough renderings of the new town, they were very surprised. Especially when Song Wen heard that the two new city walls in the original plan would cost 30,000 guan, they were moved. Now Li Jing said that Qianqian also wanted to slash the broken west city wall, and the north wall would be slashed, and the area of ​​the new city would be expanded again. In the end, the new city would be a city with a length of 1,55 steps from north to south, 500 steps from east to west, and 4,000 steps from circumference.

When he heard the plan introduced by Li Jing, even Song Wen showed a strange expression. The meaning was obviously to say that you are a small town and you can build a small castle. Can you build such a large city? The area of ​​a prefecture in Dengzhou City is only nearly nine miles in circumference. Da Xiezhai is still the superior of Shamen Town, but it is only 900 steps in circumference. At the level of Shamen Town, the castle is generally only about 400 steps. Now Li Jing is actually going to build a circumference of 400 steps, which is ten times the area of ​​the original area. It is even larger than that of Dengzhou City.

Song Wen opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say it out in public.

When Wang Jin, Feng Zhang and others heard the news, they obviously had a look of scammering and laughing at the face. If Li Jing really wanted to build such a city and use his drawings that cost twice as much as the cost of building an ordinary city wall, then this matter would definitely be interesting. They wanted to see, Li Jing did not get so much money, and he went to build such a city.

Li Jing saw all these expressions in his eyes, but smiled and said nothing. Of course, he could not really build such a city. He really planned to demolish all the 1ri walls on all sides and then rebuild the four walls according to the castle wall. However, although there were plans to expand the area of ​​some castles, it only expanded from the first four hundred steps to 1,600 steps, which was only 400 steps higher than the original plan. The reason why he suddenly said this was that this idea suddenly came up and said it casually was just to see everyone's reaction.

After seeing the layout of residents, military camps, offices, workshops and other arrangements on Li Jing's drawings, Song Wen and others frowned even more. According to this plan, Li Jing would not have been able to build it even if he spent ten years. Originally, everyone was shocked by Li Jing's ability when he saw Li Jing's one-eyed dragon. But now after seeing Li Jing's own plan, everyone thought that Li Jing was just like this, a stubborn and completely unwitting guy. Everyone was thinking that it was not Li Jing's amazing ability to defeat the pirates, but that the one-eyed dragon was so famous that it was too useless.

After reading the castle's new city plan, Song Wen took the crowd to visit the wounded in the medical team, and the families of soldiers and families temporarily placed in various places in the city. The crowd also raised 300 guan as a condolence pension. Originally, Song Wen and others were expecting that the wounded and the people would thank them after getting the money, but the actual result was that when everyone earned only fifty cents on average, everyone looked at these civil servants and generals not gratitude, but contempt. This made Song Wen and others very depressed, and even became a little angry, but they were embarrassed to make a fool of themselves, but they had to pretend to be angry. They didn't know that the pension, reward and relief funds that Li Jing had just given everyone was calculated in guan. Compared with that, just fifty cents were not as good as the wages for everyone in the workshop.

Song Wen had to think of a new topic on the way, and he asked Li Jing: "This time your unit suffered such heavy losses, and you have to recruit troops again next. Is there any lack of weapons in the entry?"

Li Jing replied: "Although the soldiers suffered heavy losses, in the years of famine, there are still many people willing to carry guns and eat food, and the enrollment is not bad. However, our military equipment is seriously insufficient. Before, many brothers were fighting with pirates with shoulder poles, bamboo poles, wooden sticks. If not, there would be such great casualties."

Song Wen looked surprised and asked, "When you took office before, didn't you go to Daxie Village to lead the weapons?"

Li Jing hurriedly explained the hundreds of spears and knives he had brought back to Daxie Village last time. Song Wen was anxious after hearing this, and his face was dark. He turned to Feng Zhang and said, "Shamen Town is the one who belongs to Daxie Village, so this weapon will naturally be released by Daxie Village. Li Zhen will recruit him to join the horse. Could it be that he will bring the weapons to take office by himself? What do you have to explain this matter? If you can't give a reason, then the hundreds of evil spirits who died in battle in Shamen Town will be counted on your head."

Feng Zhang looked a little ugly. Although his official position was under Song Wen, he was not actually under Song Wenzhi's jurisdiction. Now Song Wen completely treated him as a subordinate, which made him very unrelated. However, now that he was talking about this matter, he had no choice but to say: "I just heard about this matter. I went to other islands to inspect defense. I only left a silo at home, but he was ignorant." After pausing, he gritted his teeth and said: "I think this is the case. When I go back, I will let you go and pull out 300 sets of weapons. In addition, as a pension for the dead and injured brothers, each person who died in battle will be subsidized by five silos, and each person who was injured will be subsidized by two silos. To make up an integer, I will draw 10,000 silos to Shamen Town."

The pension was originally the responsibility of Da Xiezhai, but if Song Wenyao had not mentioned it in public, it would have been difficult to take the opportunity, Feng Zhang would never have pulled out a bronze. Now, it seems that it seems generous to pull out the money, but in fact it is just a responsibility to fulfill.

Song Wen ignored Feng Zhang and said coldly: "I remember when Shamen Town was still Shamen Shu, the defense area also included Niutuozi Island, Yangtuozi Island and Shaoji Island. Now Shamen Shu has been upgraded to Shamen Town, and I think the defense of these three islands should continue to be handed over to them. If they were asked to send some troops to station the three islands, there would be no pirates who came to the island in the future, and no one of them would have entered the pre-existing situation."

Listening to these meaningful words, Feng Zhang's face turned completely dark, but he couldn't give any powerful words to fight back. He had originally expected that Wang Jin could advance and retreat with him and help him. Unexpectedly, Wang Jin had no choice but to be disheartened since he went to the island. In the end, Feng Zhang had no choice but to agree to hand over the three islands of Yangtuozi Island, Niutuozi Island and Shaobing Island to Shamen Town under the pressure of Song Wen.

Song Wen looked around the crowd with satisfaction and said with some slightest saying: "Ji Yu is a talented person. He killed nearly a thousand thieves in one battle. Such achievements are extraordinary. Such brave generals and generals are a blessing for us Dengzhou. In the future, everyone can help you, and you must try your best to help."
