Under the leadership of Su Gu, Liu Zhang and others arrived at the Sheriff's Mansion, and the reception hall was already full of people.

Seeing Su Gu leading a young man in, everyone immediately understood and stood up to salute.

"Presumably this is the number one general of my big man, the later general Liu Zhang, General Liu?"

The number one general of the big man?

Liu Zhang couldn't help being slightly taken aback when he heard this address, and quickly looked at the sound. It is a person dressed as a middle-aged scribe.

"How dare Liu Zhang deserve this title! Please don't say that, sir."

"Hahaha, the latter general is really too humble!"

The middle-aged scribe laughed a few times, not feeling that his description of Liu Zhang was exaggerated at all.

Su Gu hurriedly recommended young scholars to Liu Zhang,

"Rear General, this is the head of the Pan family in Hanzhong County, Pan Zhou."

Liu Zhang nodded with a little understanding, and slightly bowed his hands in salute.

"It turned out to be Mr. Pan, be polite."

Naturally, Panzhou didn't dare to be negligent, and he bowed his hand in return.

"It is a great honor to have the honor to meet the Empress General!"

Seeing that Liu Zhang didn't say anything, Su Gu hurriedly asked Panzhou to find a seat to sit down first.

"General Empress, the people on the left are the county magistrates of my nine counties in Hanzhong, and they came here to greet General Emeritus."

Liu Zhang looked in the direction Su Gu pointed, and saw that the county magistrates had all stood up and greeted Liu Zhang together.

"Meet the rear general."

"You don't have to be polite, I need to rely on you a lot in the future."

The nine county magistrates didn't quite understand what Liu Zhang meant, and they all showed doubts.

"Everyone, take your seats first! I will explain to everyone later."

Su Gu asked the county magistrates to sit down first, and planned to notify them after they were all seated. After that, he led Liu Zhang to the left hand side.

"Rear General, this is the county magistrate Yan Shan. Yan Shan was originally from Brazil, but because of his friendship with me, he deliberately moved his family to Hanzhong."

Surname Yan? Liu Zhang's eyes lit up, and two words flashed in his mind unconsciously, Yan Pu!

"Meet the rear general."

Yan Shan has a face with Chinese characters, which gives people the impression of being very upright.

Liu Zhang also woke up from his distraction when he heard Yan Shan's meeting.

"Yan Juncheng is polite."

Yan Shan didn't say anything more, just took a step back with a smile.

"General Empress, this is Yang Lin, the county lieutenant, and the Yang family is also from Hanzhong."

Su Gu pointed to the person next to him, specifically mentioning Yang Lin's background.

Yang Lin, the Yang family!

Liu Zhang nodded slightly. It seems that the three brothers Yang Song, Yang Bai, and Yang Ren came from this Yang family.

"Lieutenant Yang, please be polite."

"Meet the queen general!"

Contrary to Liu Zhang's expectations, Yang Lin's face was upright, not treacherous at all.

After the people in Hanzhong County had probably finished their introductions, Su Gu invited Liu Zhang to sit on the main seat. Liu Zhang declined one or two reasons, but he couldn't resist Su Gu, so he sat down happily.

Then Su Gu raised his hand to everyone, and everyone knew that Su Gu must have something to say, and the room fell silent instantly.

"It just so happens that the officials of Hanzhong County are all here. Su Mou announced the will of His Majesty. From now on, the post of Hanzhong prefect will be concurrently held by the later general Liu Zhang, who will also be in charge of all the military affairs of Hanzhong County! The latter general was granted the power of false festival by His Majesty. , I also hope that all colleagues will cooperate wholeheartedly with the general!"

Su Gu has been the prefect of Hanzhong for many years, so he naturally has some feelings for his subordinates. In order to prevent them from going astray, he specially explained Liu Zhang's imperial power!

The nine county magistrates also suddenly realized, no wonder Liu Zhang said that before.

Liu Zhang also stood up, and the new official naturally had to say a few words to the people under his command when he took office.

"Dear colleagues, I believe everyone has heard about the affairs of Liangzhou. Liu Zhang came here mainly to curb the arrogance of the Liangzhou rebels! In recent years, there have been constant wars in various places, and the imperial treasury is empty, unable to carry out further conquests! Therefore, Your Majesty That’s why I was sent to Hanzhong!”

"From now on, all the supplies in the nine counties of Hanzhong County need to be dispatched by the Sheriff's Office. No one is allowed to own property, let alone think about corruption. Once I find out, don't blame the ruthless ax in my hand!"

Liu Zhang picked up the ax bestowed by Liu Hong and kept shaking it in his hand!

The expressions of the officials in the nine counties were different, some turned a blind eye, some were sitting on pins and needles, and some were even sweating profusely!

The power of the ax and ax in Liu Zhang's hands is too great! Don't say that they are small county magistrates, even the governor of Yizhou has to weigh it!

"I will follow the order of the prefect!"

All nine county magistrates stood up and expressed their opinions to Liu Zhang.

"Okay! As long as you all cooperate wholeheartedly, Liu Zhang will never make things difficult for you!"

The county magistrates calmed down temporarily and sat down, but Panzhou on the right was sweating profusely.

Pan Zhou regretted it to death now. If he had known that Liu Zhang was here to succeed the prefect of Hanzhong, he would not have been so arrogant.

Liu Zhang sat in the main seat, followed by Su Gu. Logically speaking, Yan Shan and Yang Lin should be next in line. Unexpectedly, Pan Zhou took the seat.

Liu Zhang had discovered this a long time ago. From the moment he entered the door, it was Panzhou who talked with him first, and when he was seated later, Liu Zhang knew that this Panzhou was definitely not easy.

Sure enough, when Panzhou knew that he was coming to take over as the prefect of Hanzhong, he began to feel very unnatural. Panzhou was even more terrified when he revealed the power of the axe and axe!

"Mr. Pan, are you hot?"

Panzhou kept wiping off his sweat, probably his sleeves were soaked from wiping off the sweat!

Liu Zhang looked at Panzhou with a smile. He had already made up his mind. It seemed that the first time he swung a knife in Hanzhong would fall on the Pan family!

"Ah! Yes! Yes! It's a little hot underneath."

Panzhou was taken aback by the sudden voice, and his face was covered with sweat.

"hehe…"

Liu Zhang ignored Pan Zhou and looked at Su Gu below him.

"Su Taishou, today is the reception banquet, Liu Zhang shouldn't be talking about business! It's just that the situation is urgent, so I can only ask Su Taishou for advice!"

Su Gu nodded, feeling a little relieved. Liu Zhang is so serious, it must benefit Hanzhong.

"Rear General, please tell me, as long as Su knows, he will never lie!"

"Okay, just now I heard Taishou Su say at the city gate that Hanzhong County now has a population of nearly 300,000?"

Su Gu nodded and gave Liu Zhang a very sure answer.

"Yes, since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, refugees from Bajun and Shujun have often flowed into Hanzhong. Before Bianzhang and others invaded Sanfu, many Guanzhong refugees came to flee. I issued an acceptance order, and these refugees have been properly resettled. "

Liu Zhang's eyes lit up, he accepted the refugees and resettled them. It seems that Su Gu is indeed a good prefect.

"I heard that the governor of Yizhou was thrifty and wantonly amassed money, causing people to resent. I wonder if the prefect Su knows about this?"

"this…"

Su Gu was slightly taken aback, he didn't expect Liu Zhang to ask such questions.
