    It was getting late at this time, so Huang Mingyuan rushed to Ping'en County to prepare for a night's rest.

    Because Ping¡¯en and other places are close to the canal, there are many bandits plundering them.  Most of these bandits were from the local area, relying on their local knowledge to engage in guerrilla fights with the government troops.  Even though many officers and soldiers were well-equipped, they were taken advantage of by bandits and defeated.

    Although Huang Mingyuan and his men had five hundred elite cavalry, they did not dare to neglect them, for fear of falling into the trap of bandits.

    When Huang Mingyuan arrived at the city gate, a guard had noticed it and hurriedly closed the city gate.

    Huang Mingyuan ordered Xiong Kuohai to call the door, but he just didn't answer.  Until Xiong Kuohai revealed his identity and raised his flag, the opponent still ignored him and refused to open the city gate.  With no choice, Xiong Kuohai had no choice but to take out his official seal and throw it on top of the city for the other party to recognize.

    Not long after, the magistrate of Ping'en came to the city gate in a state of complete turmoil. When he saw Huang Mingyuan, he confessed to the death penalty and asked for forgiveness.

    Huang Mingyuan would not blame him for this, he just asked: "Since we have revealed our identities, why don't the officers and soldiers in the city believe us?"

    Speaking of this, the Ping'en County Magistrate also felt aggrieved.

    The bandits on all sides are too strong, and they plunder and plunder, and even the bold ones dare to attack the county town.  Ping'en County is a small county, with only a hundred government soldiers and hundreds of rural soldiers guarding it. The troops are insufficient, so naturally they dare not slack off, lest they break the city for thieves.

    These bandits are very cunning. Many bandits defeated the government troops and captured many of their flags and armor. They often pretended to be government troops and attacked the city.  Many cities were unprepared and were taken advantage of.

    A few days ago, a group of thieves pretended to be officers and soldiers of Wu'an County and came to call the city.  As soon as the officers and soldiers were ready, they allowed him to enter the city.  Fortunately, the defenders in the city discovered that the other party had a different identity in time, and there were not many thieves entering the city. They quickly mobilized troops to surround him, and after a bloody battle, they were driven out of the city.  Ping'en County officers and soldiers also suffered dozens of casualties.

    Since then, Ping'en County has been frightened three times a day. When it saw an army approaching, it immediately closed the city gate, let alone the government army or bandits.

    Huang Mingyuan said nothing after listening to the county magistrate's statement.

    It seems that the bandits in Hebei have passed the initial period of seeking food and clothing and have begun to enter the barbaric growth period.  This is the time when bandits are most destructive. The original system has been destroyed, but a new system has not been established. During this period, ordinary people cannot even guarantee their own life or death.

    Huang Mingyuan declined Magistrate Ping'en's invitation and simply took two bites of food before returning to his room.  Magistrate Ping'en watched helplessly, and did not dare to speak even if he wanted to curry favor.

    Huang Mingyuan ignored this and wrote a bandit suppression report overnight, requesting the emperor to set up a bandit suppression ambassador in Hebei and set up a standing army to wipe out bandits from all over the country; allow the soldiers from each county to cross the border to suppress bandits; county and county officials from various places will also suppress bandits  Bandits are included in the assessment

    It wasn¡¯t until the fourth watch that Huang Mingyuan finished writing the plan and had it sent back to Luoyang overnight.

    This is the period of rapid development of bandits, and it is also the time when they are most vulnerable, and it is easiest for the army to defeat them.  When the bandits take over the base area and complete their transformation, and then the government and army launch encirclement and suppression campaigns, the court will have to compete with the bandits for population and resources, and the difficulty will be great.

    No matter how Yang Guang deals with it, the bandits cannot be allowed to spread too much.

    Early the next morning, everyone had breakfast. Huang Mingyuan asked Su Yong to prepare some more food, and they were ready to set off.

    A group of people walked through the deserted streets. The city was exceptionally quiet, as if there was no life.

    Suddenly, there was a lot of noise at the entrance of a grain store on the street. Unexpectedly, Huang Mingyuan and his party encountered the woman from yesterday again.  I don¡¯t know how she got into the city.

    This woman is fighting with a strong man, and the thing in her hand is the jade pendant given by Huang Mingyuan yesterday.

    It turns out that this woman was rescued by Huang Mingyuan yesterday. Thinking that she was not far from the city, she came to the city overnight and wanted to exchange this jade pendant for some food.  But there are not only poor people in this world, but also evil people.

    Immediately, some rogues came to snatch her jade pendant.

    Of course, this woman couldn't compete with the rogue, and eventually the jade pendant was snatched away by him.  The woman fell on the ground and started to cry loudly.  The only bit of life left was gone, and the woman was full of despair.

    In this era of disorder, perhaps force is the only distribution factor.  Isn't it because evil people rob women of their property in public because this era has lost its order?

    There are constant natural disasters, heavy taxes, heavy labor, exploitative nobles, ferocious officials, murderous officers and soldiers below there are ferocious bandits, and vicious rogues. One day  The price of food is higher than that of a day

    People shouldHow to survive.

    In this world, good people are forced to become bad people by bad people.  How about not becoming a bandit or a rebel?

    "In this world, if one day the person you know who is kind to others, willing to give, and upright and righteous suddenly turns into a monster, you have to believe that it is because of this world."

    Huang Mingyuan could not remain indifferent after all, and was about to let Xiong Kuohai take action. At this time, a young man saw what was going on and stood up. He knocked down the rogue with three punches and two kicks, took the jade pendant from him, and handed it to the woman.  When the woman saw that the jade pendant had been lost and found, she was filled with joy and left with a lot of gratitude.

    "Perhaps she still may not be able to keep the jade pendant, nor may she be able to exchange it for food, or it may even attract the covetousness of evil people again, leading to greater disasters, but all of this is not a reason for us to refuse to save her.

    The young man was about to leave, Huang Mingyuan asked Xiong Kuohai to step forward to stop the young man and ask him his name.

    The young man was frightened when he saw Huang Mingyuan and his group, each holding a sword and a gun. When he saw that Huang Mingyuan looked kind and cheerful, he said that his name was Cheng Mingzhen, he was from this county and he was a ranger.

    Cheng Mingzhen was born into the common people. His father died young and he only had a widowed mother.  The Cheng family in Guangping is very famous, but apart from the surname Cheng, he has nothing to do with the Guangping Cheng family.

    He is not very old, but he is very good at kung fu. Relying on his martial arts skills, he became the ranger leader of Ping'en County at a young age. In fact, he is only fifteen years old.

    Cheng Mingzhen?

    Huang Mingyuan only felt that the name was familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was.  However, he can act bravely when seeing justice, and he is not greedy for people's money, so he can be regarded as a righteous man.

    Huang Mingyuan always felt that he should be a famous general in the future, so he accepted him as his adopted son.

    Cheng Mingzhen is young, but he is not stupid. Huang Mingyuan looks like a big shot at first glance. He has no roots and no status, how can he just be a knight-errant for the rest of his life.  Only by hugging Huang Mingyuan's thigh at this moment can we have a bright future in the future.

    Therefore, Cheng Mingzhen immediately knelt down and worshiped Huang Mingyuan, calling him "adopted father".

    Huang Mingyuan asked someone to give him a horse and send his family back to Zou Mountain, and then took him with him to Youzhou.

    Along the way north, there were countless refugees, and Huang Mingyuan also accepted hundreds of children in their 15s and 16s as boy scouts.  Although these children are all sallow and thin at this time, if they are trained a little, they will be a group of loyal and useful people.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
