The Battle of Xikou was in full swing, and Zhao Dahai and his brothers were blocking the attack of the border army with their lives and blood.

Lu Shi here, grasp the rare time that this flesh and blood exchanged, after a short rest, set off again before dawn.

The old people and children were still tightly guarded in the middle of the team, and the heavy materials were loaded again or carried by the baggage soldiers in an orderly manner.

Although they got rest, but the hurried for days also made these people's baggage soldiers start to become tired, and the speed of the march has slowed down greatly, Lu Shi stood on a high place and looked at the army that was slowly squirming forward, and couldn't help frowning and sighing, but Guo Tianxing and the third uncle were still full of optimism.

When the brigade of men and horses passed along the river valley outside Suide City, Suide County Ling Zhou Ji held the battlement and watched the army of thieves rumbling in the morning light, and only then did he know that Zhao Qianhu was not wronged at all.

Not to mention that in front of him, the three hundred soldiers who blocked his door were still in good spirits, and even the soldiers in the long line made him tremble.

At the beginning was a fiery red cavalry, lined up in a neat line, solemn and majestic in the rising sun, followed by a neat footsteps dressed in black rattan armor, a team of snow and bright spears, line by row and column of marching forward, the morning sun reflected in the forest of spears was about to sting their eyes, this is not counting, this team of black wall-like spearmen rumbled past, and the group of men who began to have a formation again appeared, and the footsteps became neat, with a handkerchief wrapped around his head and a man wearing an old sheepskin jacket, Happily roaring along the riverbank, when I looked closely, it turned out to be those men who had signed their own Ding, oh my God, when did those pickled men become so disciplined, so like a soldier? If these signatories could have such discipline and military rules at the beginning, they would not have been so miserable.

In the eyes of Zhou Ji and Zheng Qianhu, the overnight changes of these signatories who surrendered and joined the pole team were simply miserable in the eyes of the Black Tiger Army.

A meal of horse meat and white steamed buns, plus the military advisor sent someone to organize, asked everyone to tell their miserable life experience in front of all their brothers, and was asked again and again why this is the case, if it is not for those corrupt officials and cool officials who eat people and do not spit out bones, not those powerful landlords who forcibly seize and seize rampant places, not the taxes they should pay, and the prince who should not be supported, then how can he be like this? When they jumped out one by one and stepped forward to cry, in the earth-shattering howl, everyone knew that whether the feelings were themselves or yesterday's former opponents, they were all born in hardship, and they were all desperate brothers who were oppressed and manipulated by those corrupt officials and corrupt officials, so what else to fight? So what are you doing here? Pick up the guys, and talk to the ones who left us without food or clothes. And will starve us to death and oppress our villains desperately?

People are like this, as long as they explain the reasons to him, and give him an ideal goal, plus the herd effect, then he will immediately completely break with the original and be reborn immediately. As a result, the enemy who was still fighting and killed yesterday is now a comrade-in-arms who is like a brother, and he has an absolutely unique potential and appearance.

Such a result made Zhao Xing and Chen Ce admire Lu Shi's genius method even more, if this method is implemented, in the face of the official army in the future, will it be all right to send a group of loud voices to stand in front of the enemy formation and shout?

Of course, this is just a thought, the ideal premise is that you also have to cooperate with them to give them a certain amount of material, fortunately, there is no shortage of materials in the current Woniu Mountain.

Hundreds of thousands of catties of horse meat can completely satisfy the ** of these foodies, and a padded jacket for one person will make them warm from the inside out.

So what was shown in front of Zhou Ji was such a scene that surprised him so much that his jaw dropped, but Zhou Ji and the county are now suffering from gains and losses, so it's okay, you can push away the original pension money and food for the dead, who said that your son died in battle? Isn't that in the army that goes south with the thieves? Your son has already become a thief, and if I don't beat you up for colluding with thieves, I'll be merciful to me, a good official.

After these brigades, there were thousands of men and women, old and weak, but when these old and weak came over, Zhou Ji and other officials, big and small, (just three) were even more shocked.

Is this still an outcast? Look at the steady footsteps, the face is full of red light, and the clothes on their bodies are extremely bright, and the new clothes are beginning to dwarf Zhou Ji, the old man, Zhou Ji's official robe has been worn for a few years, and the back is patched, why are they wearing better than themselves?

"It's coming, it's coming, it's a cart transporting supplies, my mother, how many of them must be there, I can't see the end at a glance, and the pack horses and donkeys, it's even more connected from end to end. Look, there are ten cars of old people, and those old people are treated preferentially to move forward in the car, tsk, what a blessing. ”

Crowded on the city wall, the people who were signed to defend the city were old and weak, and now where are they still guarding the city, they simply rushed to the city to watch the big play, not only to see a big play, but also to see a big drama that is envied to death.

Those who saw the new army of prisoners who had just passed in front of them, and saw the figure of their brothers and sons, began to secretly rejoice in their good fate, to go to such a pole, to such a pole that could free up a big cart for the old man to ride, is it a kind of luck? Is it better than living here today and starving to death tomorrow?

Walking through again was a row of transport teams with guns, although the pace of the array was not as rigorous as the original black-clothed army, but this was no longer comparable to the Ming army that he knew, looking at the team that was calmly moving forward, Zhou Ji felt a sense of weakness from his heart.

Shaking his head, he turned around and staggered down the city, he didn't have to bother guarding the city walls, first, people didn't have the heart to attack their own dilapidated county town, and second, it was also their most helpless result, with the combat effectiveness of others, if they wanted to take their own county, they didn't need to take a drum to finish it, this is a result that makes people not frustrated?

Zhou Ji, who was lost in despair, returned to the lobby, looked at the beam of the room for a long time, and finally shouted weakly: "Come on, pen and ink waiting, I want to write to Yan'an, to the court, and report what I have seen and heard according to the truth, I hope that the court will pay attention to this bandit, if it is not exterminated in a short time, once the tiger returns to the mountain, the court will never have peace." ”

The original master, the current county gentleman, habitually waited for pen and ink, and then asked softly: "What about the future?" ”

Zhou Ji looked at the Zhijiao County Cheng in confusion, stunned for a long time, and finally sighed, and said helplessly: "Later? Who knows, maybe there will be more and more such thieves. Thinking about lifting the pen, just about to put down the pen, he shook his head and sighed: "Why more?" Acts of God or **? **What's more, natural disasters don't produce food, but** they will produce poles, and there will be a good harvest, and the rest is the governor's business, and I have nothing to do, so I can do whatever I want. ”

An urgent report on the strength of the pole was reported to the Yansui Governor's Office by the only war horse given up by Qianhu, and it was sent to the desk of Qian Zanhua who was sitting in Mizhi for the first time.

Yansui governor Yue Hesheng is sick, one is old, in the past two years, the court has changed, and there are eunuch cases implicated, finally took refuge in the Qingliu party but out of the Mongolian Tartars to commit the border, erosion of three towns, five prefectures, eleven states and counties of the tragic incident, the plundered population money and grain innumerable, the Ming Dynasty has become a blank land in this section, and before he can breathe a sigh of relief, this is another rice fat thief to break the city, although the county was finally recovered, but the emperor saw that the period is greasy, after the words are responsible, must be the head of the lying cow mountain thiefHowever, the thieves are so powerful that they can't rely on the local guards, so they borrow troops from the border army, so that things are getting bigger and bigger, and they can't cover it anymore, it seems that this time, whether this thief is exterminated or not, he will not be able to eat and walk away afterwards.

At that time, when I received the emperor's dictation from the ministry, the first thing I was to take the blame and resign, and I wanted to retreat as advance, at least I could return to my hometown, and with all these years of savings, I would be a rich man in my hometown in Jiangnan, but the result was that I went up and recovered very quickly: "Shirk responsibility, you should be killed." ”

Just this sentence completely blocked Yue Hesheng's way, and now, in front of Yue Hesheng, all he could do was to exterminate the pole and take the head of Lu Shi and others, or go to the slaughterhouse by himself.

Under these multiple blows, where can it be supported? At that time, he fell ill, and as a result, the encirclement and suppression matter was handed over to the Metropolitan Division, but the governor's mansion could not help but come forward to make an appearance, not to mention that those officials of the Metropolitan Division were thinking of passing the buck, I wish you didn't order me not to act, only the governor ordered me to carry it out, and there was no fault on our part anyway.

Helpless, Yue Hesheng had to promote his henchman Qian Zanhua again to the five grades, and uniformly implement the encirclement and suppression to coordinate the affairs of the officials, soldiers, and townships of all ministries.

Don't misunderstand that the governor wants him Qian Zanhua to carry the black pot after the war, this black pot that is unfavorable to the bandits is not something that a small praise painting can carry it, Yue Hesheng just looks at Qian Zanhua and still has some ability, everyone is happy to do the errand well, and if it is not done well, it is also helpless, and he really has no energy to take care of it anymore.

So he put the power to Qian Zanhua, who thought he had some ability, and when he handed over the right, Yin Yin taught him to say please.

With the power in hand, Qian Zanhua also showed his ability, this first step almost hit the thief at a loss, but the head of the thief Lu Shi actually had a good nose, saw through his Qian Tong's calculations, and let him slip away, but fortunately, everyone is calculating, you haven't run far, and the road ahead is still long.

At this time, Qian Zanhua, who was stationed on the front line to dispatch and command at any time, received Zhou Ji's report, and along with this report, it was followed by a military report by Guo Weiquan, the chief soldier of the border army, which made Qian Zanhua even more shocked.
