Bite!

System prompt: Lin Xiaodao was encouraged by the host, and his favorability skyrocketed by 30 points!

Chen Ziqian's eyebrows raised slightly, and then what?

System your uncle's, how much favorability is there before and after, 20 plus 12 plus 30...... Why is it 62 points of good feeling, don't you kneel down and call the lord?

The atmosphere at the scene became a little strange, and the herald was still kneeling on the ground, looking at Chen Ziqian with his head tilted and confused.

Lin Xiaodao also struggled in his heart after the initial excitement.

Revitalizing the family and being a general, who wouldn't want to do this?

But is that something that can be done?

Just the rabble?

Lin Xiaodao quickly calmed down, arched his hand and said: "Adults raise love, Xiaodao can't repay it, it's just that the old mother is seriously ill in bed, and she can't take care of herself yet, Xiaodao can't take care of him now, now the big war is imminent, adults please take official business as the priority, Xiaodao will go back to take care of the old mother first." ”

Saying that, Lin Xiaodao turned around and left.

The rebels sent 150,000 troops yesterday to surround Taibei County in eight routes.

At this time, Taishou sent an envoy again, and his intention was self-evident.

If it was because of him that Chen Ziqian was harmed because of his private abolition, then he would become a sinner.

Looking at Lin Xiaodao, who didn't look back, Chen Ziqian crossed his waist and supported his forehead, and only sighed for a moment before he sighed and said, "Bring the envoy to the county government to see me." ”

"Whoa!"

The herald went in response, and Chen Ziqian ran quickly to catch up with Lin Xiaodao.

"Adults don't need to say much, Xiaodao has made up his mind." Lin Xiaodao didn't wait for Chen Ziqian to speak, so he said it to death first.

Chen Ziqian could probably guess Lin Xiaodao's concerns, after all, he was still a fourteen-year-old boy, and no matter how nice he said, it was useless.

But if you don't talk about it, you can always influence it with practical actions, right?

It looks like it's time to show real strength!

Chen Ziqian smiled and no longer talked about himself, he already had a rough plan in his heart.

The two returned to the county government together, and the county had already found a slave and maid to serve Mrs. Lin.

As the boss, you don't have to do it yourself except for the small things in life, and there are still a lot of things in official business.

Chen Ziqian entered the county government and had to deal with a bunch of official business.

What steals chickens and ducks, fights over land, bursts of reservoirs, tax collection, and so on.

Although these matters are handled by the county Cheng in a unified manner, the final result is still for him to verify the decision.

In addition, there are a lot of things to do in military affairs, there are armor that need to be built and repaired, and there are thousands of mouths waiting to be fed.

There is also a whole system responsible for these things, but no matter how big or small, in the end, they have to go through the motions from him, and they will deal with it endlessly.

No way, it's so difficult in the early days of entrepreneurship, if you don't do it yourself, it's too late if something goes wrong.

After Chen Ziqian finished handling the official business on the case, he went to the backyard to visit the old lady first.

The old man still looks sick, it seems that the mother and son have suffered all the way.

After a few simple conversations with the old lady, Chen Ziqian took Lin Xiaodao to the courtyard to eat.

"Go and bring the venison that County Lieutenant Yang sent yesterday." Chen Ziqian ordered his subordinates to work, and chatted with Lin Xiaodao for a few more words.

Lin Xiaodao was still a little restrained, but he couldn't resist Chen Ziqian, so he had to sit down and accompany him.

Not long after, an envoy sent by Taishou arrived.

This person is polite and polite, and he looks like a weak scholar, and he introduced himself first when he came in.

Chen Ziqian has a system in his body, and he can see through the other party's attributes at a glance.

General: Gong Rang, physical strength: 73

Belonging: Dayan Dynasty, Loyalty: 25, Official Position: Taibei County Magistrate History

Force: 37, Intelligence: 71

Commander-in-chief: 55, political: 75

Stunts: Culture LV5, Eloquence LV4, Agriculture LV3, Business LV2, Patrol LV2

Personal information: A native of Taibei County, Yizhou, with a conservative and stable personality.

After a simple glance, this person's attributes are average, and his official position is not low.

Shi, the head of the county, was in charge of the civil affairs of the county, but he didn't expect Taishou to send such an important person over.

It seems that this time the rebels raised troops to attack, and the pressure on Taishou was not small.

The two sides briefly exchanged a few polite words, and the interesting thing is that this person actually called him 'Little General'.

I don't know where this title came from, but it's just a title, and Chen Ziqian didn't care too much.

"The little general really deserves to be called a young hero, the rebels in front of him are menacing with an army of 150,000, but the little general can sit here and eat with peace of mind, and the officer admires it." Gong Rang said with a smile after taking his seat.

He came here to test Chen Ziqian's attitude, if he had the heart to join the enemy, then he had to get rid of the rebels as soon as possible, if he was willing to lead the troops to resist the rebels, it would naturally be the best.

Chen Ziqian also understood the other party's intention, but he didn't expect the other party to give him such a sentence as soon as he opened his mouth, which is worthy of being a character of eloquence LV4.

Lin Xiaodao couldn't eat it when he sat next to him, he was a smart person, and of course he could hear the subtext in Gong Rang's words, but it was just inconvenient for him to intervene as an outsider about this kind of thing.

However, he was very curious, in the face of Gong Rang's attitude, how would Chen Ziqian respond?

"Gong Changshi is being sarcastic?" Chen Ziqian threw a bone on the table, puffed his hands and said: "The rebels sent 150,000 troops, although they are divided into eight routes, and the main force is still on the county side, but there are nearly 10,000 horses and horses all the way, and I here, the remnants of the defeated generals add up to about 2,000, and when the rebels arrive at the city, I am afraid that my death will come." ”

"Why is the little general so arrogant, the day before yesterday he defeated the traitor Li Yuyang with 800 infantry and 3,000 soldiers and horses, this matter is still in his ears, why now there are 2,000 soldiers and horses, and there are cities to defend, but he is rash and dead?" Gong Rang squinted his eyes slightly and said: "What's more, this battle may not have to be fought, the little general is not from my Taibei County, so he can lead his troops to abandon the city, why should he lose his life for this small county?" ”

With a bang, Chen Ziqian slapped the table and said, "What does Gong Changshi mean by this, the rebels destroyed my homeland and killed my father, I and the rebels have long been incompatible, how could I abandon the city and flee because of the lack of major generals?" ”

"The little general is angry, it's the official's inappropriate words, and please don't blame the little general."

Gong Rang hurriedly got up to confess, and at the same time saw Chen Ziqian's determination to resist the rebels, and immediately said: "It's not a secret, Taishou sent this official here in order to discuss with the little general about resisting the rebels. ”

"It turns out that Gong Changshi deliberately tested me."

Chen Ziqian nodded, looking suddenly enlightened, but he sneered in his heart.

Taibei County was stuck at an important transportation hub for the rebels to enter the Central Plains, and this battle was inevitable.

If Taishou had made arrangements earlier, he might have had the opportunity to move to other places with his men and horses, but now that the rebels have divided their troops into eight routes to surround Taibei County, they have missed the opportunity to transfer.

In this way, Taishou was left with only two choices, either surrender the city, or gather all his strength to fight it.

The leader of the rebel army, King Wang, made the right move, forcing Taibei County Taishou to choose between him and the emperor.

Obviously, he was too conservative and chose the current emperor, and then he could only fight to the death with the rebels under pressure.

Chen Ziqian sneered in his heart, but he still pretended to be unhappy on the surface: "Gong Changshi can rest assured, our department will fight to the last soldier, and we will fight with the rebels to the end." ”

"Okay, well, the official will be relieved to have the words of the little general, but the meaning of the Taishou is not to let the little general go out of the city to meet the enemy, it is safe to hope that the little general can defend the city, and after the Taishou repels the main force of the rebels head-on, this victory can be determined."

"Let me keep the city out?" Chen Ziqian frowned slightly, and looked embarrassed: "This is a bit difficult, there is not enough food and grass in the city, and if you want to hold on, you can't hold it for a few days, so it's better to send troops as soon as possible and fight to the death with the rebels." ”

"Little general, no!" Gong Rang hurriedly said: "Zhilin County is the key point of the left wing of the county, and once it is lost, the county is in danger. ”

"Then what should I do, we can't let the whole army go hungry here, right?"

"This is easy to do, when the official returns to the city to report to the Taishou, and he can get a thousand stone of grain for the general, and then the general needs to hold on here for ten days, and the rebels will retreat."

"Only a thousand stones?" Chen Ziqian's face was embarrassed: "I'm afraid this bit of grain can't last for ten days, if you can have five thousand stone of grain, let alone ten days, even for a month." ”

"Okay, then I'll give you 5,000 stones, and the official will rush back to resume his life and take his leave." Gong let go, but the big thing in his heart got up in a hurry.

Although Chen Ziqian has the element of a lion's big mouth, fortunately, he is inseparable from the rebels and will not easily abandon the city and surrender.

In this way, the left wing of the county town can rest easy, and the price is also affordable.

After Gong Rang left, Lin Xiaodao, who had not spoken, couldn't hold back any longer, and hurriedly got up and reminded: "My lord, this city wall is in disrepair, the outside of the city is open on all sides, and there are only more than 2,000 soldiers and horses in the city. ”

"I know," Chen Ziqian smiled and said, "But I'm not stupid, why should I keep it?" ”
