Lin Kunshan stood in front of Han Ruzi with an expressionless face, "No, I can't do it, those who want to be angry can only take advantage of the situation, if the momentum is not there, we can't help it, these people are here to support the old emperor, let them change their minds and go to the northern Xinjiang, I can't do it." ”

"That's enough, I hope Mr. Lin can help me do another thing."

"Hmm." Lin Kunshan was noncommittal.

"Those who look at the qi follow the trend, since the situation here is difficult to change, then go out and take a look, maybe someone is willing to join the rebel army to fight against the Huns."

Lin Kunshan slowly showed a smile, as if he was agreeing, and like mockery, "Da Chu has millions of soldiers, and they can't be used up, how can anyone volunteer to join the army?" ”

Han Ruzi also smiled, "It's hard to say, I didn't expect that there would be people supporting the abolition of the emperor before." ”

Lin Kunshan thought for a while, and reluctantly said: "Okay, since Your Majesty wants me to leave the stockade, I'll go, my people ......."

"Feel free to stay."

Lin Kunshan nodded, turned around and left.

The King of the East China Sea, who was watching from the corner, couldn't help but speak again, "As soon as Lin Kunshan leaves, those people in the rivers and lakes will also leave, and the power in your hands is getting less and less." ”

"These powers are not for me, so what's the point of keeping them?"

"Hey, there's no one for you at all. My uncle will soon send a thousand iron horsemen, and in the blink of an eye you will be able to level the riverside village, what can you do then? Put the knife on my neck? ”

"Mrs. Cui is a reasonable person, and he will not be so reckless."

The King of the East Sea sneered, of course he didn't believe that his uncle would do this, but he still felt that Han Ruzi was ignorant.

Han Ruzi paced back and forth, and suddenly asked Xiang Beifang: "You are often in the market, do you think that anyone will join the rebel army to fight against the Xiongnu?" ”

"No, it won't." The answer is simple and straightforward.

Han Ruzi smiled, and then sighed.

"Hey. Looking at the way you just looked, I thought you were confident. The King of the East Sea regained some confidence from this sigh.

Of course, Han Ruzi is not confident, in fact, he doesn't even have a bamboo leaf in his chest. Yang Feng once told him that there is too much information and too much miscellaneous, but it is more difficult to sort out. The emperor had to learn to discard most of the information, or to figure out the truth and make a decision on his own when there was very little information.

The key is to put yourself in the other person's shoes and learn the other person's way of thinking.

What will the Queen Mother and Mrs. Cui do?

"The Queen Mother must have mastered an army that can compete with the Southern Army, and Cui Taifu has no choice but to give up the incident and go north to join the war. In this case, Mrs. Choi will not kill me. In order to keep the King of the East Sea, he will also help me. Dowager...... Queen Mother ......"

The Queen Mother had too many choices, and Han Ruzi couldn't think of what she would do.

The King of the East China Sea kept sneering, "With the hundreds of rotten people in your hands, the Queen Mother will let you go?" Jokes, big jokes. ”

There was a knock on the door outside, and Jin Chunzhong pushed the door in and brought three bowls of rice. It is topped with dried fish and a little vegetable.

Don't take the bowl and eat it, without even saying thank you. The king of the East China Sea was still picking and choosing as before, but he was so hungry that he ate the dried fish in a few bites, leaving more than half a bowl of rice, and asked, "Why are the fish so small today?" There was not as much food as usual. ”

Han Ruzi swallowed the bowl unintentionally, and only then did he take a look. Indeed, there is less rice, and there is only one dried fish, "There is not much food in the village?" ”

"Well, save a little. Let's hold on until tomorrow and evening. Jin Chunzhong took over more responsibilities and had a better understanding of the actual situation.

"Can you eat enough?" Han Ruzi knew that if he even had so little food, there would definitely be fewer others.

"Fortunately, everyone can understand that tired marquis can't conjure food......"

Han Ruzi's heart moved, "No matter how much food is left, take it out, and make sure everyone is full." ”

"But ......" Jin Chunzhong couldn't understand this approach.

"Listen to me, even if you don't have anything to eat tomorrow morning, let everyone eat this meal first, maybe ...... I can really conjure it. Han Ruzi smiled.

"Okay, I'll go and order the stove to be turned on again, and tomorrow's breakfast should be fine." Kim Chun-advised to retire.

The king of the East China Sea had already eaten most of his bowl of rice, and was looking at the rice bowl that was not going to die, but he didn't dare to ask for it, and said to Han Ruzi: "You are asking for your own death, there is no army without food and grass, this is the simplest truth, the army's heart is unstable, eat the food, and everyone will have to disperse in a hurry tonight." ”

Han Ruzi found the flint velvet, lit the only small oil lamp in the house, and said to the people: "The people will not join the army to fight against the Huns, but are they willing to serve as soldiers for a full meal?" ”

As a cook in a well-known restaurant, he is not picky, eats a bowl of rice cleanly, puts down the bowl, and says: "The people in the city will not, and I don't know about the people outside the city." ”

Han Ruzi smiled slightly, and it was an affirmation that he didn't know if he didn't want to die.

The King of the East Sea showed a look of disbelief, "You are crazy, you can't even feed these hundreds of people, and you want to recruit more people?" By what, deception? ”

"Lin Kunshan will do this for me."

The King of the East China Sea was stunned, "Why?" ”

"Because he doesn't want to achieve nothing, the original plan of the Qi Seeker was abandoned by me, and if Lin Kunshan wants to do something, he should help me. Take advantage of the trend - what the people want to hear, Lin Kunshan will say, and there are his accomplices around the capital, working together, will move many people who have encountered disasters and have no way out. The 3,000 I reported may be a little too little. ”

The King of the East Sea was stunned for a while, and suddenly laughed out loud, "Crazy, you are really crazy, why do you think things will come according to your ideas?" Thought everything would be ready for you overnight? Ha ha. Don't die, you seem to be more reasonable, persuade him, if this continues, he will invite heavenly soldiers and generals. ”

Don't be ordered to raise his right hand in front of his eyes, check the palm prints by the light, and suddenly wave his backhand, and slap the East China Sea King in the face, the East China Sea King stumbled, almost fell, covered his face with both hands, and was furious, "I know you are a drunken immortal ......"

Don't die glanced at it, and the king of the East Sea immediately shut up, forcibly suppressing his anger, not wanting to suffer the loss in front of him.

"I'll keep you safe." There is always a cynicism in the coldness of death, as if there is nothing in this world that is worthy of his seriousness, "but if the enemy is too strong." I'm not going to fight to the death, you'll have to figure it out yourself. ”

"Of course." No matter how uneasy he was in his heart, Han Ruzi was able to show his composure again.

There were cheers outside, and it seemed that everyone was still happy to have a full meal, and as for what to do tomorrow, that was a matter that the "emperor" should worry about.

The King of the East Sea walked a few steps sideways. Stay away from your life, and say to Han Ruzi: "Why bother? Instead of forcing myself to a dead end, I will take refuge in my uncle, save worry and trouble, and the chances of becoming an emperor again are a hundred times greater than now. ”

Han Ruzi shook his head slowly, "What I didn't hold in my hand at the beginning, I won't be able to hold it in the future." ”

"If you continue to be stubborn, there will be no future."

Han Ruzi didn't squeak anymore, and finally picked up the confidence. is declining little by little, and he needs several miracles to happen at the same time to get out of the current predicament.

The door was suddenly slammed open, Jin Chunzhong broke in, and said in a panic: "Oh no, someone set fire outside the village." ”

Han Ruzi didn't say a word, immediately ran out of the room, stood at the door and looked into the distance. Crisis came sooner than reward.

The east side of the stockade is facing the water, and there are fires in the other three directions. This is clearly arson.

"Where's the sentinel outside?" Han Ruzi asked loudly.

"It's back...... someone shouted, and the crowd quickly gathered.

A group of volunteers ran from the direction of the gate in a panic, and one of them shouted as he ran: "Officers and soldiers! Officers and soldiers are here again! ”

The crowd was startled, and Han Ruzi immediately asked, "Which officers and soldiers?" How many people? ”

The sentries came to a stop, but could not answer the question, and one centurion said, "They blocked the road." And then set fire, only officers and soldiers will use this style of play. ”

Another group of sentries came running, and the centurion who took the lead panted and said, "It's not an officer or soldier, it's someone from the Chai family, who said he wanted revenge." ”

"Chai family!" Kim Chun-chung was shocked.

Chaohua was furious. "The person who killed my father is here, just right, take the guy, rush out with me, and avenge my father!"

A large group of people responded, and some did not squeak, not feeling obligated to avenge the old fisherman.

"Wait!" Han Ruzi said sharply and said to Chao Hua: "You agree to stay for another three days, and during these three days, I will still be your commander." ”

Chao Hua's murderous and reckless side was stimulated, and he looked back viciously, but it only lasted for a very short time, and he bowed down and said, "I listen to Your Majesty's orders. ”

"Everyone is lined up, and they are not allowed to take half a step out of the village."

Everyone was looking for their hundred-man team in a panic, and the fire outside the stockade was getting bigger and bigger, Han Ruzi turned his head and asked in a low voice to the King of the East China Sea who followed out: "What tactics are generally used to deal with fire attacks?" ”

The king of the East China Sea had already panicked, the fire was ruthless, once it burned into the stockade, even he couldn't live, and he was scolding the Chai family in his heart, when he heard Han Ruzi's words, he replied casually: "Fire attack? The book says...... To clear the clearing, you can stop the fire from spreading......"

Han Ruzi had read too few books, and only after being reminded by the King of the East China Sea did he react, and personally ordered several teams of 100 people to be sent to demolish the houses on the edge of the stockade.

The houses in the riverside village are very simple, when the Chai family attacked the village in the morning, some of them have been burned, and the remaining few rooms are easy to dismantle, dozens of people struggle to push and fall, it takes more time to move the scattered wood, and the fire outside is getting closer and closer, which is frightening.

Suddenly there was a shout of killing outside the stockade.

Han Ruzi said loudly: "Don't be fooled, this is the enemy's trick to lure the troops!" ”

Sure enough, the shouting quickly died down, but no one rushed in.

Han Ruzi led the rebels to retreat to the water's edge, and someone shouted: "Get on the boat, everyone get on the boat." ”

Han Ruzi felt that it was inappropriate, and while he was thinking about it, the king of the East China Sea shouted: "No, set fire on three sides, leaving only the waterway, this is obviously a plan to set the enemy away and intercept halfway, and there will be an ambush of the Chai family on the water." ”

"We've been fishing here for many years, and we're afraid we won't be able to deal with a few small trash fish when we get to the water?" Some people are not convinced.

The King of the East Sea just shook his head, although the fire outside was getting stronger and stronger, and it was already approaching the village, he still maintained some calm.

Han Ruzi agreed with the opinion of the king of the East China Sea and said to Chao Hua: "Put a few torches on the boat and push it out." ”

Chao Hua immediately did so, and together with several people, he untied a small boat and pushed it out downstream.

The boat carried torches, drifting slowly on the lake, the fire outside had burned to the fence wall of the stockade, and it seemed almost close to them, and some people finally could not bear the torment, and regardless of the emperor and military law, they jumped on the boat and ran away, and more people followed, scrambling for the boats, and the water's edge fell into chaos all at once.

Han Ruzi was about to lose his ability to suppress the bullet, and Chao Hua shouted loudly: "Stop!" There is an ambush on the water, look! ”

Everyone looked and saw that the boat had slid some distance, and only the sound of swishing in the darkness could be heard, and it was obvious that all the arrows were fired in unison.

The people on board rushed ashore again.

The King of the East China Sea muttered, "Where did the Chai family find the archers?" They sail a little more and shoot arrows at the shore, and we'll all be dead......"

Before he finished speaking, several boats really appeared in the darkness, slowly heading from the center of the lake towards the riverside village.

"Oh my God, this is not from the Chai family, this is ...... Ships of the Southern Army! My uncle ...... "The King of the East China Sea was so dark in front of him that he almost fainted.

The crisis came earlier than the reward, but it was not the enemy that Han Ruzi expected. (To be continued.) )
