In the county office, to Gao Keng's surprise, when he heard that the real murderer who beat him in Ganzhou appeared, even if he was the general of the army, his father Gao Qian was still furious, and said angrily: "Keng'er, don't worry, this matter is not so easy to expose, I will definitely avenge you, seek justice, and never let those people go." ”

"But, father, that boss is not only two levels above you. Moreover, General Wang is also ranked in the third grade, even if you want to exert force and pressure, people may not pay attention to it. ”

Although he is a petty official of the seventh grade, Gao Qian has a certain self-confidence: "Keng'er, you dare to rest assured, clean up those few soldiers and ruffians, there are still some means for being a father." Although the official position is not as high as theirs, it can also make them submit. ”

Originally, Gao Keng was still a little apprehensive, feeling that his father, who had always been cautious and cautious, was not so easy to promise himself to teach those soldiers a lesson, although he had a great uncle who was not powerful but had a very sensitive position.

After receiving an affirmative answer, Gao Keng still breathed a sigh of relief, inexplicably excited, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Father, what is the way to make the king of the kingdom succumb to his generals?" Could it be that you want your uncle to come forward? ”

Gao Qian nodded and shook his head again, which made Gao Keng dizzy, and when he was about to ask again, he heard his father's voice coming: "Keng'er, since ancient times, strong dragons do not suppress the head snake. What's more, the kingdom has just come to Yuzhong County to garrison, and there are many things that need local cooperation. ”

"Today's imperial court is not only entangled by thieves and headaches, but also the Houjin in the north. Moreover, now it is a natural and man-made disaster, and there have been large-scale disasters in Shaanxi, Gansu and other places. Even if the imperial court can get enough silver taels, how can he buy enough food without the matchmaking of our father and son to liaise with rich merchants and landlords for the kingdom? If there is no food, how can I think his kingdom will lead troops? ”

Hearing this, Gao Keng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't help but say: "When the time comes, as long as the eldest uncle blows the wind in the emperor's ear, it will be enough for the kingdom to drink a pot." Moreover, the father and the son also heard that the kingdom was not a good man, and that the hands and feet were not clean. ”

Speaking of this, it seems that some kind of consensus has been reached, the father and son looked at each other and smiled, extremely proud, and Gao Qian said to himself contemptuously: "Hmph~ Our Gao family is no longer the obscure family of the past, with the rise of your eldest uncle, being entrusted by the emperor to be reused, it means that the imminent rise of our Gao family is not something that anyone can provoke?" Otherwise, how can our Gao family gain a foothold in Shaanxi? ”

"Yes, my father is right! Just take this opportunity to make an example of the monkeys, make the voice of our Gao family, and lay the foundation for your future ascension. ”

Two days later, in the Beida camp of Yuzhong City, in Li Zicheng's camp, on the training ground, 200 cavalrymen were either practicing riding and archery, or playing polo, among which the most lively was playing polo, and the enthusiasm of the soldiers was extremely high, constantly waving clubs, hitting polos, passing, and aiming directly at the opponent's goal.

At this moment, Li Zicheng and Li Guo, as well as Tian Jianxiu, stood on a small hill, smiling, staring, quietly looking at the training ground, Li Guo sighed excitedly: "Uncle~ Your trick is so wonderful, not only changed the soldiers' impression of equestrianism boring, greatly increased their interest, but also drove everyone to compete to learn equestrianism, no less than the invention of basketball." ”

Li Zicheng smiled and didn't say anything, and Tian Jianxiu said suddenly: "Generally, I understand, the reason why the club was changed to a spoon shape and the head was made of iron was to increase weight and exercise the wrist strength of the soldiers." While improving their ability to control war horses, it can also strengthen their equestrian skills, cooperate with each other tacitly, and practice various tactics, etc., which can be described as killing many birds with one stone and having many benefits. ”

At this moment, Tian Jianxiu admired Li Zicheng. Since joining the army, Li Zicheng has seen everything he has done in his eyes and admired it in his heart. Although the tricks of this general when fighting against others are sometimes flattering and too spicy, it does not affect his glory and extraordinary behavior.

First of all, he showed his absolute strength, crushed all the members of the ten-person team, and won everyone's recognition. and then the invention of basketball, which eradicated the bad habit of gambling in the military camp in one fell swoop, which is equivalent to rectifying military discipline once, and greatly improving the overall military quality of the Beida Camp in Ganzhou.

However, these are not the most self-accomplished aspects of Tian Jianxiu, but this boss can judge the situation, seize the opportunity, take the opportunity to ascend, and successively rise to the banner and centurion, thus driving the promotion of all the brothers.

Also, this boss is very strategic, when everyone is worried about the inspection of General Wang, the boss finds an opportunity, turns disadvantages into advantages, and does not care about the gains and losses of money and silver. In order to improve the physical fitness of the brothers, the usual nutrition can keep up and make generous shots.

Without waiting for Tian Jianxiu to think about it, Li Zicheng's voice suddenly sounded: "Tian Jianxiu, my centurion, how is the investigation about the Gao family's father and son?" What kind of background do they have, they are not afraid of being at the rank of the king's general, and dare to speak out so unashamedly and threaten us? ”

Tian Jianxiu's expression was not very good-looking, but he didn't hide it: "Report to the boss, according to the news that the brothers inquired about, the Gao family father and son are not simple, their backer is Gao Qiqian, the eunuch in the palace, is deeply relied on by the emperor, and his status is on a par with Cao Huachun, Wang Dehua and others. ”

Li Zicheng's expression fluctuated, his brows furrowed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "It's really easy for the king of Hades to do, but the little ghost is difficult." It seems that we will not have a good time in the future. ”

Tian Jianxiu's face was the same as before, and he was not surprised, but Li Guo said unwillingly: "Uncle~ Won't you?" In any case, General Wang attaches great importance to you, and will not embarrass you because of the power of a eunuch, right~? ”

"How not?" Li Zicheng said lightly, his tone was paused, his eyes were full of deep meaning, and he continued: "Come on, don't take it for granted. Our general is not as good as you think, and his character is not very good? As far as I know, the number of horses allocated to us should be 300. Moreover, the food has already arrived. However, the military salaries of more than 1,000 people were cut by 20 percent, and the grain supply standard was also drastically lowered. ”

Although the words are exhausted, and the meaning is endless, Tian Jianxiu added: "What the boss said is good. It can be seen from this that our general is not much stronger than other generals, and the Zhou Dawang incident is very likely to happen in Yuzhong County, and it will be interpreted again. ”

"In any case, in the past two years, the anti-thieves have not only been some civilians, but also some of the imperial court's troops. The former is helpless, forced by natural and man-made disasters, just to be able to survive. The latter, on the other hand, is a complete coward, afraid of going north to fight Houjin. Of course, there are also reasons for the imperial court, insufficient food, and facing the pressure of the boss. ”

seemed to have a feeling, and seemed to be full of deep meaning, Li Zicheng did not continue. When Tian Jianxiu had the same feeling, he also knew in his heart that Li Zicheng said such a big rebellion, which was absolute trust in himself.

Otherwise, once you expose and report yourself, the person in front of you will not only lose your position, but also worry about your life.

Li Guo's heart couldn't be calm, he was full of worry, when the two were talking, his brain was also running at high speed, thinking about how to deal with it, and finally he could only shake his head secretly, and couldn't help asking: "Uncle~ Then what should we do next?" You can't just sit back and let others slaughter you. ”

Li Zicheng raised his eyebrows, his momentum was faintly blazing, and he said indifferently: "Sitting still has never been my code of conduct, nor is it a way to deal with things. ”

After a pause, Li Zicheng's momentum changed, he looked at the two of them separately, and then said: "After that, during this period of time, no matter what happens in the outside world or what changes there are, you don't care, just pay attention to the training of soldiers." As for the affairs of the Gao family's father and son, you don't need to worry about it. ”

Li Guo was secretly anxious in his heart, how could he not be worried, he just wanted to say something, but was stopped by Li Zicheng waving his hand. The latter showed a solemn expression, looked straight at Tian Jianxiu, and said in a deep voice: "Jianxiu, you are calm and assertive. Therefore, the affairs of the Gao family's father and son will be left to you, and their movements will be closely monitored. ”

"Yes, boss, I will mobilize all the relationships in Yuzhong City, and closely inquire about the movements of the Gao family's father and son, what kind of means will they use to deal with us."

Li Zicheng nodded with satisfaction, and then continued: "Also, use the connections in the army to also use, and often send basketball teams to Nandaying to play basketball games, so as to understand their situation there. If something is disturbing or abnormal, report it to me immediately. ”

"At the same time, pass on my military order, without my permission, no one can easily leave the camp, let alone go to Yuzhong City. lest there be any incident, leaving a handle for those who have a heart, thus bringing unnecessary trouble to us. ”

"Yes, General, I will then arrange to send our most reliable brother to inquire about the situation in the Nanda Battalion. The brothers were also restrained, and they were not allowed to leave the barracks easily. Increase the intensity and intensity of patrols to prevent soldiers from sneaking out. ”

While Tian Jianxiu immediately answered, his heart was tight, and this series of orders and measures immediately understood that the reason why the boss inquired about the situation in Nanda Camp was to prevent the king of the kingdom from participating in the generals, so as to prevent himself and others from being hacked.

Hearing this, seeing Tian Jianxiu's answer extremely solemn and attentive, Li Zicheng breathed a sigh of relief and said earnestly: "Tell the brothers that this is an eventful time and you must be careful." Otherwise, all reckless actions may bring great trouble. ”

"Yes, general, then I will go to the other three centurions and discuss with Liu Fangliang, Wu Ruyi and Yuan Zongdi, formulate corresponding measures, and manage the corresponding subordinates."
