Chapter 318: How can it be otherwise?

Originally, Li Xian brought a pot of old wine and a few delicacies to pat Daxi Changru's ass, but who would have thought that there would be a lot of things today. The previous hour, Xiong Kuohai shouted in his mouth that he had picked up the treasure, and he had found the treasure, and his face was as excited as if a three-year-old child had caught a goldfish for the first time. An hour later, Li Xian casually put it in the food box on the table, the food was already cold, and at this time, Niu Jinda muttered angrily: "I'm angry, I'm angry".

He and Xiong Kuohai went to the Yanwu Academy one after another, but their performances were very different.

"What's wrong with you?"

Cheng Zhijie patted Niu Jinda's shoulder and asked curiously.

Niu Jinda first gave Li Xian a military salute, and then sat on the stone steps of the courtyard and said depressedly: "Today, I went to the camp, planning to see if there are a few soldiers recommended by the people below who are eye-catching." Not to mention, there is one that shines in front of me, but unfortunately it is a bragging goods. I'm. ”

"Tell me, what kind of people brag about what kind of makes you angry like this?"

Cheng Zhijie asked funny.

"When I went to the camp today, the generals below had already selected fifty soldiers, and although there were no outstanding talents, they were all good candidates. But just as I was about to bring the fifty soldiers to the general, a recruit rushed to me with a shouting self. ”

"He stopped me in my path and questioned me in a serious manner."

He said, I have learned martial arts and archery since I was a child, and even if the archery art is not as good as a hundred steps through Yang, I will not miss a single shot ten times in the eye sockets of a hundred steps. In terms of martial arts, I have no opponent in this county since I was eleven years old, and then my family fell in the middle of the road, I wandered around, and the entire northern part of the Great Sui was walked by me, and I rarely met opponents, and now the general picks people to enter the martial arts academy, why don't you let me go? ”

Niu Jinda said with annoyance: "I heard the soldier speak like this, and I looked carefully, but I saw that this person was thin and thin, and he didn't look like a brave man. Later, when I thought about it, this person was so confident, and I didn't think about it as a person who was incompetent. So I asked him which battalion he belonged to, and after asking clearly, I asked the generals and lieutenants of that battalion, do you know that they actually buried a talent under their subordinates? The generals and lieutenants said that it was impossible, and the best soldiers had already been selected. ”

"I took the confident soldier to confront the captain, and as soon as I saw the soldier, my lieutenant smiled angrily, and he said to the soldier, you, you, it's just bragging, why don't you know how to restrain yourself on such a formal occasion?"

"But the soldier said, I can open up the territory, Wen can stabilize the country, and the general chooses talents, why should I bury myself?"

Niu Jinda said slightly angrily: "I saw that he said solemnly, and said that he has some real skills." So he set up a target at a distance of seventy paces, took a hard bow and let the soldier shoot, and three arrows in a row, only one of which hit the target. I thought he was nervous, and let people take a long lance to let him show his martial arts, that long lance dance, although the appearance is not bad, but it is all showy, and it is useless. ”

"It's really infuriating me to let a charlatan delay for so much time. The soldier, looking at the posture of holding the bow, is obviously also practicing, and looking at the posture of holding the lance, he has obviously also practiced, but none of them can handle it. I was so angry that I drove him back, but he threw the lance aside and said: I have the talent to govern the world and the country in my chest, that is, the rebirth of Zhou Gong Kongming, and he is not one or two points stronger than me. ”

Niu Jinda patted the stone steps beside him in annoyance and sighed, "Why did I believe that person's nonsense again?" Someone took pen and ink to ask him to write a strategy. He looked at the blank paper for a long time, and wrote three words crookedly, which was really the only thing I had ever seen in my life. When I saw that he was fooling me again, I was so angry that I asked him to fork it down and beat him with a few military sticks, and the man even quibbled that these three words are a good way to govern the world! ”

"What did he write?"

Bae In-ki asked curiously.

Niu Jinda said angrily: "His own name, he actually swears that he himself is a person who governs the world, and he has great talents, so why do you need to write any strategies and theories, and if there is anything that cannot be solved, just give it to him to solve it naturally." I've seen bragging, and it's really the first one to brag so shamelessly. ”

"What's his name?"

Xu Shiji asked.

Niu Jinda glanced at Xu Shiji and smiled: "Strategist, you don't ask, I forgot, this person is the Wagangzhai soldier who surrendered in the first battle of Lei Ze, according to himself, he is still a team, but he only entered Wagangzhai for three days to catch up with the big battle between us Yanyunzhai, and later saw that there was no hope of victory, and the surname Suo surrendered." ”

"Uh......"

Xu Shiji smiled and said, "It turns out that he is still a wonderful person." ”

"Wonderful?"

Niu Jinda said angrily: "I can't wait to open his butt to flowers." ”

"What's your name?"

As soon as he heard that the strange thing turned out to be from Wagangzhai, Cheng Zhijie was also interested. He squatted beside Niu Jinda and said eagerly: "Say it quickly." ”

"His name is Hou Junji!"

Hearing Niu Jinda say these three words, Li Xian's eyes twitched.

……

……

When he heard these three words of Hou Junji, Li Xian was in a trance, and a fear suddenly appeared in his heart for no reason. This fear is not that he is afraid of anyone, and he can't explain it clearly, maybe he is afraid of something unknown, he is so suddenly afraid, and seems to understand something at once, but the thought is just fleeting, and it quickly disappears. He tried to catch the idea of a meteor, but only a few names were grasped.

Cheng Zhijie, Xu Shiji, Pei Xingyan, plus Hou Junji......

How can these people come under their own command?

Is this a coincidence?

Li Xian just grasped such a thought, and the flash of inspiration in his mind could no longer be seen or touched. He shook his head with a wry smile, and said in his heart that it was really weird.

However, this Hou Junji still aroused Li Xian's great curiosity, others naturally don't know who this Hou Junji is, but Li Xian knows that one of the twenty-four heroes of the Tang Lingyan Pavilion will naturally not be as unbearable as Niu Jinda said, but Niu Jinda will definitely not lie, Li Xian from this analysis It seems that the stories he told in his previous life cannot be true. Legend has it that Hou Junji has practiced martial arts and archery since he was a child, but none of them have practiced it. And he didn't read, he was almost illiterate, and the reason why he was able to achieve so much later was because he was a cunning fellow, with a clever mind, and he decided everything on the spot, and he was so clever that people were afraid.

In other words, Hou Junji is a person with no knowledge, but this person is too clever, and everything is done on the spot and by judgment.

"Where is this man now?"

Li Xian asked Niu Jindadao.

"Now?"

Niu Jinda smiled and said: "At this time, he should be lying on his stomach in the barracks tent to raise his buttocks, I asked people to beat him with ten military sticks, and he won't be better in seven or eight days." ”

Speaking of this, Niu Jinda sighed: "This person is a tough person, and he didn't say a word after being beaten with ten military sticks." ”

"Bring him to me."

After Li Xian finished speaking, he walked to the room, still carrying the pot of old wine in his hand. After thinking about it, he pointed to the food box and said, "Let people go and heat the dish again, let's go in and drink." ”

He walked into the room, put the wine jug down and suddenly sighed, turned to Niu Jinda and said, "Tell Hou Junji and let him walk to see me by himself." ”

Everyone was stunned, and no one could understand the reason why Li Xian ordered this.

……

……

Li Xian sat down in front of the table, thoughtful.

Daxi Changru didn't understand why Li Xian let the braggart Hou Junji walk by himself, you must know that the military law is strict, ten military sticks, even if a strong man is beaten, he will not want to get out of bed and walk within three or five days, if the executed soldier is kind, it is okay, and it looks very tragic to hit a skin and flesh, but in fact, it is not a big deal if the skin is injured and the bleeding stops. If the executing soldier has bad intentions, it is not impossible that he will not be injured if he is hit with a stick, but he may break his bones and end up with a lifelong disability.

He glanced at Niu Jinda, and Niu Jinda immediately understood and explained: "I told you that I won't really cripple that Hou Junji, he is just a small soldier, what should I do with him." ”

"I know Jinda's mind."

Li Xian smiled slightly and said, "It's okay." ”

Daxi Changru sighed, thought for a while and asked, "How did you talk about the matter with Qi County?" ”

Li Xian shook his head slightly and said: "Master, you know, Zhang Xutuo is also a dead eye, and it is already difficult for him to compromise once, not to mention that the matter I proposed this time, if it were me, he would not agree." This is also that Zhang Xutuo has no heart to rebel, he just wants to protect the two counties of Qilu, if he has the heart to occupy Qi Lu County to raise the flag to rebel, I propose that he will not even consider it. ”

"He's not a rebel!"

Daxi Changru said firmly.

"A gentleman is straight, and he can be bullied."

Li Xian smiled helplessly and said: "This matter is not in a hurry, people like Zhang Xutuo can't be forced too quickly, otherwise it will backfire, but it's a pity that Shixin returned to Youzhou, Qin Qiong respects Zhang Xutuo and won't necessarily help us speak." Even if Qin Qiong was willing to say something pertinent, with Zhang Xutuo's foolish surname, he would naturally ignore it. ”

Xu Shiji sighed: "If this matter is successful, it will be like 100,000 soldiers." ”

Li Xian smiled and said: "Wait another month, if Zhang Xutuo still doesn't agree, I will go to Qi County to talk to him in person." ”

He suddenly remembered something, glanced at Niu Jinda and said: "Today, the secret spy sent news from Hebei, and the people of the Flying Tiger spy spent several months infiltrating Dou Jiande's army in Hebei, and after inquiring for a long time, no one has heard that Liu Heimin went to Dou Jiande." ”

Niu Jinda was stunned, smiled wryly and shook his head.

Li Xian continued: "So it seems that there are only two possibilities, one is that Liu Heimin fled in a hurry because he failed to poison me, I am afraid that Dou Jiande will betray him, so he hid, and he did not go to Dou Jiande's army at all. Second, perhaps...... Dou Jiande had already killed him. ”

Niu Jinda pondered for a while and said, "If there is a meeting in the future, I just want to ask him when he stabbed me...... Did he hesitate? ”

As he was talking, he suddenly heard a loud voice shouting outside: "Hou Junji, a recruit of the A Brigade of the C Battalion and the C Regiment, has seen the general!" ”

Everyone looked out the door and saw a very thin looking man standing trembling in the doorway. That person is only about 1.7 meters, and now he is still wearing a cotton coat in the early spring, but he still looks thin like a hemp pole, and he can't see his face clearly when he hangs his head and speaks. Li Xian glanced at him, and then looked at the courtyard outside the room, on the road, a string of bloody footprints.

"Look up."

Li Xian squinted his eyes and looked at Hou Junji's appearance, and found that although this person was not handsome, he was not ugly, but because he was too thin, his cheekbones appeared very high. Maybe it was because of the pain, his face was ugly, but even so, he still tried his best to stand up straight.

"I heard you're extremely frivolous?"

Li Xian asked with a smile.

"Not so ......"

Hou Junji gritted his teeth and said, "How can I see the general?" ”
