Chapter 112: Resourceful County Lieutenant Zhou
I wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival, a family reunion, and all your wishes come true!
----------
In Huixian, just when Wei Chigong and the eldest grandson Wuji led the army to approach Huixian, in a big mansion, several middle-aged people in gorgeous clothes were sitting in the hall, and everyone's faces were more or less anxious.
"Don't panic, Zhou has already sent someone out to investigate, and I think that the court army led by General Wei Chi and Lord Changsun will arrive soon." Zhou Xingxiu, the county lieutenant of Huixian County, who was sitting on the top, took a sip of the tea on the table, and then looked at the humanity of the major families in Huixian County sitting below with a smile on his face.
"Brother Yuanji, we don't have Brother Yuanji, you have such a good characterization, this matter is related to the life of our Zhao family, how can I be so free and easy as Brother Yuanji?" Hearing Zhou Xingxiu's words, one of the middle-aged men in a black robe shook his head and smiled, and then looked at Zhou Xingxiu and said, "Is Brother Yuanji really sure that this matter can be done?" ”
"Hehe, Brother Huairen laughed, if Zhou is not sure, how can he risk Zhou's own net worth and your net worth and your life?" Zhou Xingxiu smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and stroked the beard on his mouth, and said, "Everyone, rest assured, Zhou doesn't dare to say that he is ten percent sure of this matter, but there are still eight or ninety percent, only if everyone works together to help the court break the thief, when the time comes, the glory of the ancestors, the wife and the son, wouldn't it be happy?!" ”
Everyone in the hall listened to Zhou Xingxiu's words, and everyone's eyes suddenly lit up, thinking that if this thing was done, they would receive the gift of the court in the future, and the originally anxious look was also swept away, and there were more smiles on their faces.
"I would like to thank County Lieutenant Zhou for his help, and after the matter is completed, Wan will be thanked!" A middle-aged fat man in a light cyan costume smiled at Zhou Xingxiu.
"Yes, yes, yes, Brother Wan is right, after this matter is completed, Liang will also be thanked!"
"Fan is the same, there must be a lot of thanks!"
……
The hall was suddenly full of joy, as if everyone had caught the king of Runan County, put down the rebellion for the court, and was about to receive a great reward.
"Hahaha, you're polite, this matter depends on everyone's concerted efforts, Zhou doesn't dare to take credit!" Zhou Xingxiu modestly waved his hand to shirk it, but the smile on his face couldn't be hidden.
At this moment, outside the hall, a young servant walked into the hall quickly, and when he entered, he knelt on the ground and said respectfully, "I've seen the master!" I've seen all of you! ”
"Well, what's the news I asked you to inquire about, tell me quickly!" Seeing the young servant, Zhou Xingxiu hurriedly asked.
"Back to the master, the little one just heard from the outside that the army of the court has come, although there are not many people because it is too far away, but it is said that there are many, many people, it seems that there are tens of thousands, and now the city walls are already guarding the city." The young servant hurriedly told the news he had heard.
"Really?!" The middle-aged man in the black robe who spoke first heard the young servant's words, and before Zhou Xingxiu could speak, he stood up and looked at the young servant with an excited expression.
"The villain didn't dare to say anything, although the villain didn't see it with his own eyes, but the villain felt the ground shaking on the edge of the city wall, just like the earth dragon turned over." The young servant spoke.
"Haha, it's coming, if you say it in this way, the court army will definitely come, and it is impossible to have such a movement without tens of thousands of people!"
"Okay, it's finally here, tens of thousands of troops, thousands of people in Runan County, how can they resist tens of thousands of troops?"
After listening to the words of the young servant, the patriarch of several large families in Hui County immediately said with a happy face.
"Alright, alright, don't be impatient, don't be impatient!" Looking at the patriarchs of the major families in Hui County with a happy and excited face, as if the credit for counterinsurgency was in front of him, the corners of Zhou Xingxiu's mouth raised slightly, he held back the excitement in his heart, and raised his hand to everyone.
"You still have to preside over this matter, Brother Renji!"
"Yes, yes, County Lieutenant Zhou is the county lieutenant of this county, if this matter is presided over by County Lieutenant Zhou, we will be much more at ease."
The patriarchs of these big families looked at Zhou Xingxiu one by one with excited expressions.
Hearing the words of these Hui County clans, Zhou Xingxiu became more and more excited in his heart, why he was so enthusiastic to take these Hui County clans to quell the rebellion, one is to have more troops, after all, the slaves and nurses raised by each of these clans are not a small amount.
Second, he is to increase his credit, this time he fought hard, not for the credit of the counterinsurgency, and if the counterinsurgency is commanded by him, the credit is undoubtedly the greatest, Zhou Xingxiu can already expect that when the counterinsurgency is over, he is afraid that he will not go up to the heavens.
"Lifted, lifted!" Although he did have an idea in his heart, he still needed to be modest on the surface, smiled, and then said, "However, this time it is a big deal, and there is one more thing I want to tell you." ”
"Brother Renji (County Lieutenant Zhou), please speak!" Seeing Zhou Xingxiu's expression, these people hurriedly bowed their hands.
"This matter was found out by Zhou Mou in the yamen not long ago, didn't we plan to bring people directly into the county yamen to capture the rebellion of the king of Runan County?" Zhou Xingxiu's face flashed with an angry look, and then said, "Zhou Mou originally thought that at the age of the traitor of the king of Runan County, of course he would not personally go to the city wall to guard it, after all, the sword and arrow have no eyes, but who would have thought that Zhou Mou had just received the news that the king of Runan County had gone to the East City Gate early in the morning and had not returned to the county office!" ”
"What? How so? ”
"Then, Brother Renji, what should I do about this?"
Hearing Zhou Xingxiu's words, the originally excited family patriarchs and others suddenly felt like someone suddenly had a basin of ice water from their heads when they were roasting in winter, making them all a little overwhelmed.
This happened suddenly, and Zhou did not expect it. However, this matter is already on the verge of an arrow and has to be sent. In the east city gate, thousands of elite soldiers have gathered at this time, and there are many city defense equipment, although the total number of troops in our hands is enough thousands, but if we attack the east city gate, but still have no strength, at most it will create some chaos for them, and may even wipe out the whole army. Zhou Xingxiu stood up from the Hu case, looked at the people of the various families, and said.
"In this way, Zhou thought about it for a long time, and felt that we should concentrate our forces to attack the West City Gate, as far as Zhou knew, compared to the East City Gate, the West City Gate only arranged 500 soldiers and thousands of people, with our troops, there should be no problem in taking the West City Gate."
"When we take the West City Gate, we can send people to meet the court army, although this merit is not as good as the merit of capturing the king of Runan County, but it is certainly not small, and the strength of each family will not lose too much, what do you think?" Zhou Xingxiu said in front of the people of the major families in front of him.
"This ......" After listening to Zhou Xingxiu's words, the patriarchs of the major families suddenly turned gloomy, but as Zhou Xingxiu said, they were already on the bow in this matter, and the opportunity was fleeting, they looked at each other, and then gritted their teeth, nodded in unison and said, "Okay, then we will ask County Lieutenant Zhou for this matter!" ”
"Haha, okay, then without further ado, let's go right away!" Seeing that everyone agreed, Zhou Xingxiu smiled, waved his hand in high spirits, and then led the clans of all families towards the door......
