Chapter 12: Truman's Plan

Three poles in the sun, and the morning is the hour.

At the entrance of Niujiatun Tun, there is an extremely simple roadblock that was erected not long ago.

Above the barricade is a platform for sentry and reconnaissance.

The platform is small, and it is the limit to accommodate five people.

On the platform at this time, Chu Men and Li Fansheng were standing on it, their eyes fixed on the end of the avenue.

Truman even held a telescope and looked farther away.

The telescope was bought by Truman in the system, and it cost a full hundred merit points.

Li Fansheng knows how much this thick toy in Truman's hand is, and the development of the Great Jin Dynasty has already begun to open up to the sea, and these things have long existed.

The only thing he wondered was how the former had managed to conjure the thick, long thing out of his arms.

He didn't ask, though.

Li Fansheng was like Truman, looking into the distance with a solemn expression.

He remembered the conversation they had on the horse back.

"The sound of the east strikes the west, and the tiger is turned away from the mountain?"

"Yes, it just occurred to me that the bandits were making noises from the north to attract our attention, and when our large army came to the north, it was very likely that they would take a detour to the east or west."

"What about the tiger from the mountain?"

"Quite simply, the bandits made us think that they went to the East and the West, but in fact they didn't, and their purpose was still the North." Truman said lightly.

"They don't know if we're sending troops to the East and West."

"Maybe that's a deal." Truman smiled faintly with deep meaning.

When this sentence was said, Li Fansheng was instantly stunned on the spot.

The meaning is simple.

In order to realize this plan, it is necessary to know the whereabouts of both the yamen and the bandits.

And to know the whereabouts of the two parties, one of these types of people must be missing.

Spies.

There are traitors in the yamen.

Li Fansheng gasped, if there is really a spy, then Niu Jiatun is like a naked person, and there is no secret at all.

Armament, troops, those bandits will know it clearly.

And that's not the most important thing.

Niujiatun is a valley, there is a small mountain peak on both sides, and there are only a few back roads that can be retreated.

If these roads are occupied by bandits, then they will have no retreat to speak of, and at that time, not only will the lives of the county commanders be in danger, but the entire Niujiatun will be reduced to fish and meat.

Thinking of this, Li Fansheng was sweating profusely, looking at Truman, who didn't seem to be afraid in front of him, and was still a little playful, he hesitated for a moment, but still stepped forward to persuade: "My lord, those bandits may be killed at any time, this place is too dangerous, for the safety of adults, please go back to the city to avoid it." ”

Truman shook his head and rejected his suggestion.

Running for his life, how could Truman escape for his life, not only for the sake of the people of Niujiatun, but also for him an important reason.

Yes, the system has released the task again.

In my mind's eye, a blue screen flickered with words written on it.

Bite!

Side Quest: An invincible county commander who must not only possess profound knowledge and lofty morals, but also possess extraordinary courage. Now that evil is coming, Niujiatun is in danger, please give full play to your military talents, be sure to keep out this gang of bandits who rob houses and houses, and protect the safety of Niujiatun.

Mission duration: three hours.

500 merit points will be awarded for completing the task, and 500 merit points will be deducted for failing the task.

Looking at the tasks released by the system, Truman also understood that bandits would not be killed at any time, but would definitely be killed.

The mission reward is only 500 merit points, which is very little, and it is not worth Truman's life to risk for it.

He could even abandon the task and leave.

It just so happened that after buying the telescope, there were five hundred merit points left.

Even after half a year, it is difficult for Truman to integrate himself into this society.

He is a man of the twenty-first century, who has not experienced oppression, has not experienced war, and has barely seen blood.

Truman has read a lot of time-traveling novels, and those authors are just a few strokes of the time-traveling.

Now that this happened to him, he realized how difficult it was to completely change his mindset.

......

But.

Truman smelled the unpolluted air, wore clothes folded on the left and right, listened to the insects and birds around him, and felt the breeze blowing through his skin.

It's a very eerie sense of realism.

No matter how beautiful the previous life was, it was only an ethereal past after all.

Now he is not a loner, he is a county magistrate.

The boss of a county town with a population of 50,000.

That's the truth.

Abandon others and preserve yourself.

Truman was reluctant.

It's not because of the system task, and it's not just because he's a prefectural commander.

......

Bite!

The system screen displays:

Feeling the change in the host's mentality, I already have an awareness of being a good county order, and the system reward of 1,000 merit points has been received, please check.

Well?

And such good things.

......

So how can we preserve Niujiatun? He was lost in thought again.

Li Fansheng on the side didn't know about the change in Chumen's mentality, he didn't give up, he directly bowed down and continued to persuade: "Please think twice, the patrol has not returned for a long time, there are only more than 50 people guarding Niujiatun, and now the identity of the spy is not clear, and whether the bandits already know our movements do not know, please don't take risks." ”

Speaking of this, Li Fansheng bowed his body even lower, "Yangzhou County is constantly worried about external troubles, the people are miserable, only adults can save Yangzhou County today, and please take the overall situation first, take care of your life, return to Yangzhou City, and be willing to guard Niujiatun for adults." ”

Thinking about it does not mean that Li Fansheng's voice cannot be heard, Truman looked at him and said solemnly: "Lord Li, you don't want to risk my life, and I also don't want to use you, the people of Niujiatun, and the lives of those fifty soldiers." ”

When Li Fansheng heard this, he knelt down heavily, and said in a hard tone: "I am willing to take risks for my lord." ”

Chumen shook his head and was ready to help Li Fansheng up, but Li Fansheng's martial arts were so strong, with Chumen's strength, where could he help him up.

Chumen sighed slightly and said, "Master Li, are you willing to believe me?" ”

Seeing that the former was calm and confident, Li Fansheng also knew that it was difficult to persuade, so he stood up with the strength of the former, and then said, "Please show me my lord." ”

Truman turned around, looked at the end of the road, and said slowly: "Don't be so nervous, relax, we are all like this, let the people of Niujiatun see it, wouldn't it be that they didn't see the enemy, so they messed up first." ”

"Yes."

Li Fansheng replied.

But now that the enemy is present, where does he have to relax.

"I wonder what your lordship does?" Li Fansheng asked.

Truman touched his chin, pointed under the sentry platform, and said, "Remove the barricades first." ”

"Ahh Li Fansheng was shocked, if he knew that the person in front of him was the county magistrate of Yangzhou County, he almost thought that Trumen was a traitor.

But even though he knew that Trumen was a county order, Li Fansheng still favored him as a traitor to a greater extent.

Truman sighed and said, "I knew you would be like this, empty city plan, I haven't heard of it!" ”
