It's better to be an empress than a county magistrate

Lu Feng led the troops from Xing County and directly broke through the bandits of Niutou Village from the middle, cutting the bandits in Niutou Village into two halves.

Then Lu Feng and Lu Yun took half of Xing County's troops and surrounded the bandits in front.

Lu Feng took Ling Xiao to surround the remaining bandits.

Soon, the bandits in Niutou Village had no resistance left and fell to their knees with their hands raised.

This sense of accomplishment is so exciting for young people like Ling Xiao and Lu Yun that it makes their blood boil.

Repeated victory will motivate them to work harder, let them taste the joy of victory, and constantly enhance their self-confidence.

This is a kind of self-confidence that is cultivated through practice and does not require too many words.

"Who is the boss here?" Lu Feng drew his sword and asked the bandits kneeling on the ground with cold eyes.

After a moment, a very thin, wretched-looking man moved forward.

"I am the fourth leader of Niutou Village."

"How many of you are in charge today?" Lu Feng put his sword on his neck.

The fourth boss was trembling all over. "We will send out three bosses, the second, third and me."

"But the second and third brothers were hacked to death by you just now."

"Please spare my life, sir! Please spare my life!"

"You are the small leaders of Niutou Village. Come to the front." Lu Feng said coldly.

These small leaders were unwilling to come out because they heard that the officials of Xing County would publicly try the small leaders and chop off their heads after the trial.

"The informant will be rewarded and can save his life." Lu Feng said coldly when he saw that no one crawled forward.

Soon, several small bandits pointed out the leader.

Then six or seven small leaders crawled to the front.

"Come out, a few people, tie up these small leaders and your fourth boss. Then follow me to the county seat of Song County."

"Everyone else should behave themselves, or I'll chop off your heads."

"Our Xing County officers and soldiers will not kill bandits indiscriminately. However, those who are disobedient and unruly are another matter."

So Lu Feng asked the small bandits of Niutou Village to take their fourth in command and six or seven leaders and follow him to the county seat of Song County.

The people in Song County breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the bandits leave.

At this time, Lu Feng and his men came back with the bandits.

The bandits no longer had any weapons in their hands at this time. They lined up in two long rows. The four leaders and several chiefs in front were all tied up.

Jia Rong ordered the soldiers guarding the city to open the gates.

He rode a horse and carriage out of the city to personally welcome Lu Feng and others.

He didn't expect that the soldiers from Xing County were so powerful that they captured all the bandits so quickly.

"Soldiers, heroes, please come in quickly." Jia Rong dismounted and personally held the reins for Lu Feng.

"Mr. Jia, you are so polite. There is no need for this. This is what we should do." Lu Feng said politely.

Although he didn't know what Lu Xingchen was going to do to Jia Wanhe, he estimated that he would cut a large piece of meat from Jia Wanhe.

In his previous life, Lu Xingchen was a very scheming person who would never suffer any loss.

Lu Xingchen is the kind of person who, once he makes up his mind to do something, will do it well.

"The crisis in Song County has been resolved. Most of the bandits in Niutou Village are here. Their fourth leader and seven small leaders have been tied up by me."

"I have decided to publicly execute them." Lu Feng looked at Jia Rong.

"What do you think, Mr. Jia?"

"Okay, I'll listen to you, Brother Lu. I'll personally host it for you, Brother Lu." Jia Rong nodded repeatedly in agreement.

He knew that if the soldiers from Xing County had not helped to rescue Song County, Song County might have become the territory of these bandits by now.

So Lu Feng held a public trial of the bandits from Niutou Village in the square of Song County, at the same location as last time, and publicly executed them.

The common people burst into cheers.

Jia Rong was a little embarrassed because the people were all calling for County Lady Lu.

Although it was embarrassing, he was still very happy at this moment. At least Song County was saved.

Most of the bandits in Niutou Village have been eliminated, and they are definitely not able to attack Song County for the time being. Song County is safe.

Lu Feng, Ling Xiao and others were interrogating the little bandits one by one.

The main purpose is to ask them if they have any special skills.

If Xing County wants to develop now, what it lacks is talents who are proficient in various skills.

As long as they have skills, they will take them back to Xing County, and those without skills will stay in Song County and be left to fend for themselves.

No matter what time, you still have to rely on yourself and have your own abilities.

Lu Xingchen was in an extremely good mood as he watched the gold, silver, valuables and food in the mountain village being moved away one after another, leaving only an empty village.

However, this village cannot be burned down because it contains a lot of high-quality wood.

The reason why Xing County's curved plow was able to be put on the market so quickly was not only because he had recently recruited a lot of carpenters, but the most important thing was that she demolished the houses in Feihu Village and transported all the wood back to Xing County.

Wood is a very important resource. Especially in this era when mineral resources cannot be fully utilized, many things are made of wood.

"Young Master, everything that needs to be moved has been moved out." Zhang Fan came over and said.

"The people in the village have been divided. We will take the useful ones back to Xing County, and let the useless ones go."

"Those who left were also given a certain amount of money for their journey."

Lu Xingchen nodded with satisfaction.

Her good reputation cannot be limited to Xing County and the surrounding counties, but must expand outward.

Her fame will spread from Jizhou to Zhuozhou and to even farther and wider places.

"Okay, then let's go down the mountain." After Lu Xingchen finished speaking, he took Feixue and his personal guards and walked down the mountain.

Just when she reached the middle of the mountain and had not yet gone down, she heard a mechanical sound from the system in her head.

'Congratulations to the host for obtaining the territory of Niutou Village. Your life value will be extended for three months...'

Well, let's just extend her life span for a few months.

Lu Xingchen was too lazy to care about things that he could not resist at all.

Isn't this telling her not to lie down and to work hard?

This is the tight ring around her head.

She really wanted to tell the system that she didn’t want to listen and it was just a turtle chanting sutras.

Then the 50-cent special effect in my mind started to work again!

A treasure box slowly appeared, radiating light, and then smoke rose.

As the light faded and the smoke dissipated, the treasure box slowly opened.

Her space was expanded a little and seemed even more exquisite.

Then a wooden tool appeared inside.

Lu Xingchen didn't quite recognize what this thing was. As the space expanded, the name on the wooden tool appeared before her eyes.

No wonder she had never seen it. It was indeed a tool that had long been eliminated in modern society.
