Chapter 75: Distribution of Power
Although he was very satisfied with Yang Tianfeng's attitude, Zong Hui still knew the priorities of the matter and said tactfully: "It's too early to withdraw from the army. Captain Yang should be in the city at this time, so it's time to help County Magistrate Yao."
"It doesn't matter whether I'm in the city or not." Yang Tianfeng explained: "County Magistrate Yao's subordinates are not enough. On the one hand, they can recruit soldiers, and on the other hand, I will also leave some people to help defend the city. Mr. Zong, please stay and command them."
"Isn't this good?" Zong Hui frowned slightly and said, "County Magistrate Yao still respects and trusts Captain Yang. If you do this, will the Self-Defense Force become two armed forces?"
Yang Tianfeng smiled coldly. He didn't want to command the self-defense force led by Song Qingpu. The day before he entered the city, he asked him to take over the county government's defense, which made him a little unhappy.
Zong Hui is a smart man. Yang Tianfeng's expression shows that he is already dissatisfied, and he may also be interested in taking advantage of the problem when withdrawing troops from the city. But now there must be an army in the city, and those under Song Qingpu still cannot bear this important task.
"Song Qingpu is young and has no consideration for his work. The county magistrate has scolded him hard." Zong Hui said: "Captain Yang has a broad mind, so don't bother with him."
Yang Tianfeng smoked without comment. In his opinion, if Yao Zongfa had no intention, Song Qingpu would not have been like this. It was just that the timing was wrong, and Song Qingpu was a little nervous. But these were not important to him, and he did not want to get involved in political struggles. Yao Zongfa was the county magistrate appointed by the State Government, and he was justified. He could not take this sign himself, and he would always develop outward.
The atmosphere in the room was a bit dull. Zong Hui smiled bitterly and continued to explain: "When County Magistrate Yao first came, he was also full of energy and ambitious, determined to do good things to benefit the country and the people, but he repeatedly encountered walls. Now he is indeed worried about gains and losses, and Captain Yang is grateful for this."
Haha, Yang Tianfeng chuckled twice and said, "Please ask Secretary Zong to go back and tell County Magistrate Yao that I will support any good things that benefit the country and the people. As for the setbacks, I hope County Magistrate Yao will cheer up again and let go of his hands and feet to do something. As for Song Qingpu, I don't care about him as much as he wants. In order to unify the military order, I think Song Qingpu's men can be transformed into police forces and be responsible for maintaining public order in the city. The self-defense team left in the city naturally has to be responsible for the city defense, and I think it will be commanded by Mr. Zong."
"Well, this suggestion is very good." Zong Hui nodded in agreement, sighed with relief, and said, "County Magistrate Yao advocates being based on meritorious people. The few people recommended by Captain Yang can be very useful after a little bit of crafting. In addition, Captain Yang has strong abilities and will be more tired, and the position of district mayor will also be pressed on you."
Exchange and exchange of interests are practices in the officialdom. Yang Tianfeng expressed his opinion, and Zong Hui naturally opened the price code of Yao Zongfa.
It was very good and fair. Both sides had basically achieved their respective goals, so they had a good conversation and returned with satisfaction.
Hehe, I have laid the foundation for you. Whatever I do depends on your courage. Yang Tianfeng sent the Zong family and his son to the door and waved goodbye. When he turned around and wanted to go back, he saw Han Ping'er coming over under the protection of two soldiers.
"I'm back." Yang Tianfeng greeted with a smile.
"Well, young master, you haven't rested yet?" Han Ping'er looked tired and forced herself to cheer up.
Yang Tianfeng looked carefully. There was a slap mark on Ping'er's left cheek. He couldn't help but frown and said, "Has he been beaten by that madman?"
Han Ping'er couldn't help but touch her face and smiled embarrassedly.
"Be careful in the future, go back and rest quickly!" Yang Tianfeng shook his head helplessly. Being a doctor is not an easy task.

Looking at the shacks one by one, Hu Zi was stunned. It was already dark, and it was not a solution to find them one by one. It was also inappropriate to shout loudly.
"Let's come and look for it again!" Zhengu said understandingly. Although she was anxious to see her relatives, she had to do so in this situation. Hu Zi patted her chest on the boat and promised that she would give up. He would naturally be difficult to say if she gave up.
"I will take someone to help you find it tomorrow. Anyway, they are in the city, so it's safe." Hu Zi hurriedly went down the donkey and said awkwardly: "Let's go, let's go to the Young Master's Mansion. Miss Du and the others probably have arrived long ago."
Well, the little girl nodded and followed Hu Zi forward along the street.
It was already dark, and there were no electric lights in the small county town. Usually, a sharp-toned steam lamp was lit on the larger shop, and a straw hat lamp was hung in the center of the smaller shop. The guy standing under the lamp sometimes couldn't even tell the difference between his nose and eyes.
After the Japanese rule, a large number of victims have flocked to the city. Although Yang Tianfeng's men are maintaining public order, people's hearts are still not very stable. Shops of all sizes are closed early, and there are even fewer bright places in the county town.
The two of them walked silently, and a wild dog rushed out from nowhere, scaring Zhengu and stretched out his hand to pull Huzi's sleeve.
"It's a wild dog, don't be afraid." Hu Zi patted the pistol on his waist and quickly comforted him.
Well, Zhengu responded with lingering fear, but her hands were not relaxed. Only in this way could she not tremble.
Several patrol soldiers came over, the leader knew Hu Zi, said hello enthusiastically and took the people away, but there was a strange look in his eyes.
"You know all the soldiers in the city?" Zhen Gu asked curiously.
"That's not necessarily." Hu Zi thought for a moment and replied, "I often follow the young master. They may know me, but I may not be able to call out my name, but it just looks familiar."
"They call you Master Hu?" Zhengu suddenly smiled secretly.
"Hehe!" Hu Zi scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Young master just shouted and played casually, but somehow it was spread out. If he shouted, it would be hard to stop it."
"It's a very majestic name, why should I take it back?" Zhengu couldn't help but grab Hu Zi's sleeves and turned a drunk man swaying from the corner of the street.
The drunk man was dressed in rags and staggered and sang. He stood up with his blood-red eyes, glanced at the Huzi and the others, and then sang in a higher voice, "The lovers in the world are looking for a good friend, beautiful girl, don't let her run away... Haha, haha!" The drunk man laughed wildly and turned to the west end of the street. There was a slight laughter coming from afar, like a thin sugar silk, whirling in the air.
Hu Zi looked at the drunk man and disappeared, and curiously learned to sing: "The lovers in the world are looking for a lover, beautiful girl, don't let her run away... Hehe, it's so interesting."
"What's the point?" Zhengu glared at him angrily, "You still have to learn this kind of nonsense."
