At this moment, a pro-soldier came running with a shouting and shouting good news, which made him excited for a while, but also frightened.

The personal soldiers who came to patrol did not care about the master's unhappiness, ran to Zhou Ji, knelt down all of a sudden, pulled Zhou Ji's armor button, and said loudly: "Master, good news, great news." ”

When Zhou Ji heard this, he swept away the unhappiness just now, and asked nervously: "Is it the thief in front of him who has mobilized troops and horses?" ”

As soon as these words came out, even the thousands of households nesting under the ridge in the distance got up and ran to Zhou Ji to listen to the news.

"No, there is no movement from the thief on the other side." The soldier replied honestly.

Zhou Ji was disappointed for a while, and went up with a kick: "Didn't mobilize your fuss, is it possible that you can support it when you are full, and you can't use the old man for entertainment?" ”

"How dare you." The former scholar and now the soldier replied with a grin.

"Don't dare, then don't say it quickly." When have you been, you're still talking to yourself, and it seems that you're usually too tolerant of them.

"Yes, sir, no, it's the general, well, it's the overseer." Zhou Ji's identity is really hard to say now, and he doesn't even know what to call his own soldiers, but he immediately reported: "Master, the old man who was sent out to pretend to collect firewood just now brought back a piece of good news." ”

"What's the good news?" Zhou Ji needed good news too much now, so he stared at the pro-soldier and asked.

"The old man said that he went to the thief's back mountain to investigate, and his feelings, the one who guarded the mountain for the thief turned out to be his son."

The news immediately shocked Zhou Ji.

The road that Zhou Ji took was the road where Lu Shi killed Penfu County, and if he wanted to take Chenjiabao, the best way was to sneak attack in the back mountain, otherwise he could only attack Chenjiabao, which was heavily guarded and had a strong and thick city wall.

However, in the art of war, ten will surround it, five will attack it, and if it is doubled, it will be fought, and the enemy will be able to divide it, and if it is less, it can be escaped, and if it is not, it can be avoided. Therefore, the small enemy is strong, and the big enemy is also captured. Therefore, the principle applied in actual combat is: If we are ten times as strong as the enemy, we will encircle and annihilate, if we are five times as strong as the enemy, we will attack, if we are twice as strong as the enemy, we should strive to defeat the enemy, and if the enemy is evenly matched, we will try to disperse and destroy each enemy. If the force is weaker than the enemy, avoid fighting. Therefore, if the weaker side fights to hold on, it will become a prisoner of the strong enemy.

However, even if you count the master in your hands, there are only 2,000 people and horses, and you can't even think about attacking the city, not to mention, Zhou Ji himself also knows that as far as his own horses and horses, it is okay to sneak attack, if you really want to attack the city, you will definitely flee most of them immediately.

This Chen Jiabao's susceptibility, last time he had Chen Che as an internal response, and he easily succeeded, and this time Zhou Ji also wanted to do this, but there was really no internal response, but he didn't want such a comedy to appear at this time.

The current Guangwu garrison army is all the original Suide attached to the Chuang army, led by Guangwu, there are many relatives and friends in the current Zhouji army, not to mention that there are fathers and sons here.

Zhou Ji hurriedly shouted: "Then what are you waiting for? I don't invite the old man to come over, I want to ask in detail. ”

Zhou Ji is also trying to seize this loophole, hoping to make some articles here. One of the oldest masters and fathers was sent out to patrol the sentry, according to the rules of the official army, the patrol is also called the night no return, which should be the most shrewd and strong in the army, but Zhou Ji tried his best to disagree with the public, and chose this honest and miserable old man to be the patrol post, at that time, this was also despised by Qianhu in his heart, thinking that this literati really didn't understand anything, and it was in response to what you said behind the door, the literati inspector is just a kind of distrustful surveillance, and the others are a mess of scared commands.

But it was this mistake that made Zhou Ji a feat.

When the old man was sent out to patrol the sentry, he was also reluctant in his heart, but the eldest master had a life and had to follow, so he took a firewood knife and slowly touched the back mountain of Chenjiabao.

Chenjiabao is still facing the south of the construction, backed by the mountain, the last time the northbound army Lu Shi was from the back mountain, but this lesson is also helpless, because, after all, this is the mountain terrain limit, but in the back mountain to increase the vigilance, enhance the dark outpost.

When the old man stretched out his head and came to the back mountain of Chenjiabao, looking at the same steep back mountain, he was helpless, and he had no experience, but according to the duty of an old man, he was in awe of the county lord in his heart, and he thought that he would not be able to go back without completing the explanation.

The night passed, cold and hungry, and when my father finally froze to death and explained the task to the county, he suddenly saw that a very secret ridge pushed open a big adobe, and he was surprised to see it, but he saw a man in black armor in the ridge, holding a strange-looking spear and poking his head out, looking carefully left and right, and then carefully ran out, unbuckled his trouser belt in a long distance and began to pee, after a cold war, he tied his trouser belt and took a closer look around, Then he ran back to the original very hidden nest with the strange cherry spear in his hand.

He ran back, but Dad was shocked to find that the figure of the peeing thief was so familiar - that is, the son he thought had died in the last battle - Daqing.

The last time Suide fought with the thieves, the original five thousand signs were broken up, and the old parents Zhou Ji reported that there were three thousand killed, and two thousand were coerced by the thieves and rushed to Weinan, one of his sons Daqing was among the five thousand, and he did not find the corpse at that time, so he was taken away by the county positioning, according to the regulations, the one who was taken away was not counted as a war death, and there was no pension, so the father's family maintained the mourning head and cried for many days, and the person who raised it was gone, and there was no compensation.

Although Master Zhou Ji is benevolent and loves the people, he can't compensate for no reason, not to mention, in the hearts of the people, if he dies, he dies, where are these small people? I can only think that this is all fate.

Dad is already desperate, but this time the county respects the Ding again, as a man who needs to wait for the rice to be put into the pot at home, the father dragged a crippled leg to sign up, this is the only one of these signs who took the initiative to ask, not for anything else, not for himself, but for the wife who was still in the dilapidated cave at home, as well as a daughter-in-law and two who were left behind after the death of their son, still have something to eat. After all, the county promised to have three meals a day, and there were five hundred rewards, and the five hundred rewards were just a cup of tea and a tip for the old men, but for such a family, it was the hope of a family of five **.

Zhou Ji is good, in thousands of Ding Zhuang, after hearing Zhou Ji's cringe-grinching narration, he made an exception to leave himself, and, moreover, he also paid two thousand copper coins in advance, when he took these two thousand copper coins, his father cried, as long as he cried, kowtowed, as long as he kowtowed, this is life-saving money, this is the money for the continuation of fireworks.

Therefore, my father decided that he would sell this life to the benefactor of his family, Lord Qingtian, no matter what.

When he saw his originally dead son appear here, the father almost didn't believe his eyes, it was his own son, and he knew it if he didn't believe it, this was a fact.

Watching the familiar figure return to the hidden cave, Dad was confused, the reason for the confusion was, to call him or not?

Dad knows where to go to the king's territory, where a person has four acres of good land, and in his own home, the twenty acres of land that his ancestors have worked hard to accumulate for generations have long been someone else's land, and now the child has gone to King Chuang, and got what his ancestors have wanted for generations, which should be the happiest thing for himself.

But, but, the son is a thief, that is the humiliation that his ancestors have not had for generations, he is not sued if he is killed, he is not a thief if he is starved to death, this is an ancient precept left by a thousand years, and now, he is watching his son take the thief's gun, and go against the court that he agrees with in his bones, and his father really doesn't know what to do.

When the old father was brought to Zhou Ji in a daze, he was still apprehensive in his heart, and he didn't know how to face his old parents, the county lord.

The Confucian education that has existed in the mother's womb for thousands of years is not something that a person can really resist.

As soon as he saw Zhou Ji, the father even crawled to his knees, because in front of the high-ranking county grandfather, he seemed to say that the only old sheepskin jacket had been taken off, and there was nothing to hide.

"Sir, sir, please forgive my boy. Please, I am willing to do anything for you, to be a cow and a horse for you, and please forgive my boy no matter what. ”

Zhou Ji first got the report of the pro-soldiers, and knew some of the reasons during this period, at this time, the opinion of the old man was sincerely frightened, and he couldn't bear it for a while, but he was even more happy, and the opportunity came.

Zhou Ji didn't move, just on a mound, looking at the father lying at his feet crying and begging, saying that his feet were gently raised, and the pro-soldier and scholar understood, holding his hands, looking at the sky, Manson whispered: "Daddy Zhang, are you guilty?" ”

Daddy was even more frightened, and buried his head in the ground completely, trembling all over.

"Your son joined the thieves, that is a great rebellion, that is against the imperial court, that is a great crime of the Zhulian Nine Clans, and that is to dig up the ancestral grave."

This time, it made the soul of the father even more dangerous, he was stupid and an honest farmer, and what he wanted was stability, and now he was really going to die.

After watching it for a long time, Zhou Ji smiled and nodded slightly at the pro-soldier scholar, who also knew that he would accept it when he saw it, so he said loudly: "Our master is still old when you are old, now we will not pursue your disregard for the law of the country, no king and no father, I will give you a chance immediately, are you willing to atone for your crimes?" ”

Don't do all the things too absolutely, especially now when your army is sleeping outside for many days, the army's heart is unstable, this is what Zhou Ji knows and feels, especially now that he sees a glimmer of hope.

"Get up, Daddy." Zhou Ji smiled and made a gesture of support with both hands, according to the rules of the level, it is impossible to support a common person by himself, making a show will definitely make the old man grateful, and the rest of the things should be done by his subordinates.
