"Lord, what's wrong with you?"

A young officer looked at Zhou Dunyi suspiciously, since the beginning, his own military master has been silent, like a kite with a broken string, and his thoughts don't know where to go.

He stretched out his hand and patted Zhou Dunyi gently, This is when you are discussing the major affairs of the military aircraft, why are you wandering.

Zhou Dunyi was startled, blinked his eyes, he seemed to have heard someone calling his name in the distance just now, and he didn't notice that the whole person's soul seemed to be hooked away, what was going on, could it be that there was something wrong with his body?

Seeing that his military master was a little distraught, the young officer coughed lightly, stood aside and bowed to the others present, and said respectfully

"Then let's stop here for today's meeting, please go and go about your own business first, the military master has some things to deal with."

The words fell, and the other people present walked out of the military aircraft room one after another, and finally only Zhou Dunyi and the young officer were left in the military aircraft room.

The young officer approached Zhou Dunyi and asked in a low voice

"Military master, have you been overworked lately and have caused some fatigue, how did you suddenly become like this not long after the discussion of today's military aircraft meeting began?"

Zhou Dunyi didn't know whether to nod or shake his head, but sat quietly on the chair, stretched out his hand and rubbed his temples, closed his eyes, and said in a somewhat drifting tone

"I don't know, maybe it's really as you said, it's because this king has been worrying about too many things recently, and it's a little nervous, alas, this state can't appear when the two armies are facing each other."

Zhou Dunyi twisted his head, thinking to himself what happened to him just now, he hasn't been in this situation like today in all these years, it's really a little strange, could it be that someone is really messing with me behind my back?

The young officer frowned, he has been following Zhou Wangye for ten years, and he has never seen Zhou Wangye become what he is now, Zhou Wangye has always been a rigorous and serious representative, and he has been more serious than anyone else in this kind of important meeting, and today is the first time he has seen it.

Zhou Dunyi waved his hand weakly and said

"You step back first, and let this king be alone for a while."

The young officer had no choice but to obey Zhou Dunyi's order, bowed his hand, and walked out of the door, closing the door by the way.

Zhou Dunyi looked at the somewhat dim room, staring at the sand table that had just simulated the layout deduction, staring at it for a long time, and finally sighed for some reason, supported his forehead with one palm, and took out a short sword with a rusty scabbard and hilt from his arms.

That kid must have entered the territory of Dongxun at this time.

I don't know if anything will happen to him on this trip, whether he will return safely all the way, Kumu and suddenly laughed at those two guys, looking at a reliable person, I hope you two can protect my son to return safely.

That's right, the rusty iron sword that Zhou Dunyi was holding in his hand at this time was the iron sword he had chosen for Zhou Budo at the beginning.

A few days ago, before Zhou Budo and his party left Beijing, Zhou Budo returned the iron sword to himself, and also showed off the short sword forged by the little girl who showed Qingtan in front of him.

Hmph, that little rabbit cub, really ignorant of goods, such a baby iron sword was actually thrown to himself so casually, this little rabbit cub doesn't know how many people snatched this iron sword on the rivers and lakes, and how many bloody storms were caused, really.

When will this little rabbit cub change the stinky problem of how flashy it looks, and this old thing can't be a good thing if it doesn't look good?

When this little rabbit cub returns to the south and leaves, I must correct his stinky problem, and save him any jokes outside in the future.

As soon as he thought of Zhou Budo, Zhou Dunyi kept laughing and scolding his son, in his opinion, his son didn't know who he was with, and the tongue on his lips was so angry that he vomited blood from those famous teachers in Beijing who could be scolded at a young age.

If he hadn't specifically mentioned this matter to His Majesty, let this kid enter the study, and estimated that this little rabbit cub should be angry with a few teachers.

The young officer standing outside the door heard the laughter and scolding of his own military master from inside the house, and pouted helplessly, now it seems that he is fine, and he can go to organize the army with peace of mind.

And on the other side of the country

The old handsome man of the Bai family stroked his long white beard, and the pair of eagle-eyed eyes stared sharply at the record book in his hand, which invisibly exuded a powerful coercion that had been on the battlefield for a long time, so that the local officials around him did not dare to say anything at this time.

Soon after

The old handsome of the Bai family threw out the record book in his hand, snorted coldly, and said with a hint of anger in his calm tone

"Where is it really?"

Those local officials were terrified when they heard this, you look at me, I look at you, and finally one of them stepped forward with a twist, swallowed his saliva, and asked with some embarrassment

"Where are you, boss, where are you, where is it really, isn't this true?"

The old handsome man of the Bai family raised his eyebrows, stared at the man with squinted eyes, and the brush he was holding in his hand was thrown directly at the man in an instant, smashing it on the guy's face.

The officer was caught off guard, and his face was bruised by the force of the brush, and some ink that had not dried was stained.

The old handsome man of the Bai family stood up at this time, walked in front of the guy step by step, pulled up the sleeve of the guy, and asked him loudly

"Where is the old man really? Do you juniors think that if you do something in this record book, the old man will be dizzy and can't see it? Will the old man Rongma not be able to see these little tricks of yours in his life? ”

After that, the old handsome of the Bai family threw this official on the ground heavily, and the pair of eagle eyes glanced at the other officials, and the anger contained in this, these officials naturally saw it in their hearts.

So, after struggling in the hearts of these officials, they finally sent someone to get another record book from nowhere, and respectfully handed it over to the old handsome of the Bai family.

Only then did the old handsome of the Bai family calm down his anger for the time being, sat back down, opened the new record book in his hand, and carefully flipped through the pages one by one.

I don't know how long it took

The old man of the Bai family finally finished reading this thick record book, and after reading it, the old man of the Bai family looked at these people with a somewhat incredible gaze.

"How can you lose so much staff? What have you been doing here all these years? “

The old handsome of the Bai family immediately became furious.

At first, I thought there was nothing else to think about it, but the more I looked back, until I saw last year's establishment, it was completely the same as the establishment ten years ago, and the establishment was completely lacking 50,000.

And what makes people angry is that the military salaries reported to Jinling by these guys until the year before last are still the military salaries compiled in the past, that is to say, these guys have been eating empty salaries all these years?

Good guys, these guys who don't seek politics in their positions, one by one eat empty salaries and eat fat heads and big ears, and they don't know what the people in this state will be exploited into.

The old marshal of the Bai family called an entourage outside the door, and after whispering a few words in his ear, he looked at these people indifferently and ruthlessly.

"Pack up, you guys are ready to go back to Beijing, the people of Jinyi Guard will escort you back to Beijing, so put away your careful thoughts that you shouldn't have."

As soon as the old handsome of the Bai family slapped the board, more than a dozen brocade guards wearing flying fish suits suddenly poured in outside the door, and surrounded all the officials present.

Those officials were like ashes at the moment, as if they had all accepted their fate, they all lowered their heads and did not resist, so they were obediently taken away by the brocade guards.

After those officials and Jinyi guards walked away, the entourage knelt down on one leg in front of the old commander of the Bai family, raised his head and asked suspiciously

"Old Shuai, why did you escort all these officials back to Beijing before you went to the barracks? We don't have any connections here, and even these local army commanders have nothing to do with you, let alone friendships, so if you do this, aren't you afraid that you won't be able to completely control the army of this state when the time comes? ”

The old handsome man of the Bai family smiled helplessly, he didn't know these curves, but his personality also determined what he had just done straightforwardly.

If his personality is the same as Zhou Dunyi, I am afraid that he will wait until the end of this battle to send these corrupt officials back to Beijing one by one, because Zhou Dunyi will mobilize any power that he can use for a short time when facing such a major event, even if the source of that power is not clean, just because Zhou Dunyi's art of war is a trick and useless.

And he is different, his temperament is straightforward, the art of war is also the right way to be above board, and the tactics used are all yang schemes, and those small tactics are not in line with his character, so when he is faced with this choice, he will directly call Jinyiwei and escort these corrupt officials back to Beijing without hesitation, instead of waiting for the aftermath.

"I've done it all, Xiao Song, grandpa, my temperament is like this, you little cub don't understand it? Anyway, the war is about to start, and grandpa is facing the living dead of the black-robed saint-monarch, and that guy's use of soldiers is even more bottom-line than your Uncle Zhou, so he keeps those people to use, it is better to directly escort those guys back to Beijing as soon as possible, and the guy in the province was caught by the black-robed saint-monarch and used some money to make those guys traitors, in that case, even if your grandfather and I do something, we can't reverse the overall situation. ”

The entourage called Xiao Song nodded as if he understood, thinking about it like this, what his grandfather said was right, since he was facing the black-robed Holy Monarch, it was not bad to be clean and cut off like this.

So, Xiao Song stood up, walked behind the old man of the Bai family, stretched out his hand to knead the shoulders of the old man of the Bai family, and reminded the old man of the Bai family intentionally or unintentionally and said, "In this case, grandpa, you must not be the same as before, go directly to the battle in person, some painless small battles will be defeated if they are defeated, the most important thing is that grandpa can't have an accident, the master and his old man reminded me this time before I set off and said let me protect you, especially to watch you, You of the province inexplicably appeared on the front line again. ”

The old handsome man of the Bai family smiled like an old naughty boy at this time, slapped the palm on his shoulder with his hand, and said obediently

"Okay, grandpa listens to you, listens to you."
