Not long after, the governor Zhao Erxun gave another order to Zhang Tianhe and his subordinates, which roughly means that recently, Du Lisi of Heiyunzhai has repeatedly sent people down the mountain to rob, kill people and set fires, do all kinds of evil, and have an extremely bad impact, and order Zhang Tianhe and his subordinates to exterminate Heiyunzhai within a month.

Judging from the attitude of the Governor Zhao Erxun in executing the captives of Hongmakan, he hated these bandits and would not tolerate them.

Zhang Tianhe has been worried about this incident since he was recruited, if Shangfeng instructed others to exterminate Heiyun Village, if he did not directly participate, he stayed out of the matter, then it would be better to say, but now, Zhao Erxun directly ordered him to exterminate Heiyun Village, he couldn't avoid it if he wanted to.

After he received the order, he couldn't sleep, because Judge Du of Heiyun Village was his godfather, and he was really good to him, and he sent money and things to their security team many times, which can be described as a mountain, and he couldn't repay it, but now Shangfeng instructed him to exterminate Heiyun Village, how can this be good?

So, he came to the prefect Zhang Xiluan and said, "Lord Zhang, I have been feeling dizzy recently, vomiting and diarrhea, and chills, so I have come to ask you for sick leave." ”

"Oh? Is there such a thing? Zhang Xiluan looked at him, and then said with a smile, "As far as I know, Commander Zhang's body has always been very good, with a strong physique and a strong body, how can he have such symptoms?" ”

"There are unpredictable storms in the sky, people have good and bad luck, people eat grains, how can there be disasters and diseases? I don't know why, but I just feel uncomfortable, have no appetite, and feel very uncomfortable, so I have come to ask the prefect for your leave, and I beg your approval! Zhang Tianhe said.

"Then may I ask Commander Zhang to take sick leave, how long will it take?"

"A month." Zhang Tianhe said.

Who knew that Zhang Xiluan laughed and said, "Commander Zhang, I don't think your illness is like a disease on your body, but like a heart disease." ”

When Zhang Tianhe heard what he said, he asked, "Lord Zhang, what do you say?" ”

"Commander Zhang, although I don't ask too much about the things in the rivers and lakes, I have also heard that I think that before you were recruited, you had a deep relationship with the Black Cloud Village, and Judge Du was your godfather, yes or no? Moreover, I have also heard that this Judge Du is generous, very good to you, very righteous, and treats you as your own son, the reason why you ask for leave is because you think it is not good for you to directly exterminate them, and you feel that it is morally unjustifiable, isn't it? Zhang Xiluan smiled and said, "Your Excellency Governor Zhao Erxun gave you a one-month deadline to calm Heiyun Village, but you have to take a month off, just staggering this time, didn't you do it intentionally?" ”

"I ——," Zhang Tianhe sighed, "Master Zhang, since you have already said it, then, to be honest, I do have concerns in this regard, I will not say whether Du Lisi is good or bad, but his father, Judge Du, really has nothing to say to me, I really can't do it." ”

"From my personal point of view, I would like to express my admiration for your kindness and righteous behavior, but don't forget, you are no longer the captain of the security team, you are the commander of the three battalions of our government, the official of the imperial court, this is the order of the peak, where the duty lies, who dares to disobey?" Therefore, you have to change your thinking and recognize the situation, the relationship between you and the Du family and his son, it is a private matter, it is a small matter, and the order of the governor is a public matter, a big matter, is it a big matter, can you not tell the difference? Light and heavy, can't you carry it? Besides, even if you don't exterminate Heiyun Village, the government will send other personnel to exterminate them, which is the trend of the times, and no one can stop it. ”

"I know that, but as long as I don't ask me to kill them myself, I'll feel better." Zhang Tianhe said.

"Commander Zhang, you don't have a choice, since ancient times, righteousness has killed relatives, but there are many things, the one-month period is not long, the time is urgent, you better think about it." Zhang Xiluan said.

After Zhang Tianhe returned to the battalion headquarters, he brought Liu Bodu and Tang Dalong to discuss.

"That's good, this is a good thing, I have long seen that Du Lisi is not pleasing to the eye, I don't see that he is a thing, I just took this opportunity to exterminate them, you forgot, how many times has he hurt you? At the beginning, you went to Heiyun Village because of the matter of the century-old Haohe jewelry store, he said that he wanted to learn martial arts with you, and almost killed you, and later, we robbed the arms and horses of the Mongolian bandits in Mukden, but he led people to rob us, and then later, he went to our security team, you gave him a cannon, gave him a saber, but he stabbed you with a saber, the officers and soldiers went to attack us, we went to him for help, but he did not save him when he saw death, and refused to send troops, did you say that he had ever done something that a person did, like this kind of person did not kill him, what is the use of keeping it? Tang Dalong talked about the past.

"Having said that, the so-called don't look at the face of the monk to see the face of the Buddha, and it depends on the owner to beat the dog, not to mention that he is the son of Judge Du? Even if Du Lisi is no longer a thing, in the face of my godfather and godmother, I can't kill him all, otherwise, how will the world look at me Zhang Tianhe, doesn't it mean that I am ungrateful, crossing the river and demolishing the bridge? Am I still a human being? Zhang Tianhe said.

"Commander Zhang, what you said is right, Judge Du really doesn't have to say anything to you, it's not worse than his own son, if we exterminate Heiyun Village, it's really a bit difficult to explain, but, it's hard to disobey the order, since you eat this bowl of rice, you have to obey the order, the so-called being an official is not comfortable, and being at ease is not an official, that's the truth," Liu Bodu said, "However, I have a suggestion or maybe it works." ”

"What advice? Let's hear it. Zhang Tianhe said.

"You just go to visit Lord Zhang Xiluan again, don't look at him as a prefect, his energy is not small, don't forget, he is Yuan Shikai's brother, you ask him to talk to the governor Zhao Erxun again, to see if we can recruit Heiyunzhai and put it under our establishment, in this way, our strength has also grown, and the problem of the Du family and his son has been solved, I think the Du family and their son will not want to be bandits for the rest of their lives, and they also want to have a right path to go." Liu Bodu said.

"This idea is not bad, but whether Du Lisi can agree to Zhao'an, it is estimated that it is difficult to say, he is different from ordinary people, and he is too suspicious, only when Du's father and son agree to Zhao'an, we can ask Lord Zhang for help, otherwise, even if Lord Zhang invites the letter of appointment, Du Lisi refuses to come, what is the use?" Zhang Tianhe said.

"Then he really wants to die by himself, we have spent so much painstaking efforts, through the relationship between Li Sizhe's father and son, and spent so much money, it was not easy to be recruited by the government, he is good, you go and give him Zhang Luo, he still doesn't come, according to me, we will lead the troops to level their Black Cloud Village, how can it be so troublesome! How is he better than Ren? Do you want to think that the three or four thousand people of Qingfeng Village and the new equipment of Tsarist Russia are not the opponents of Ren Zhanbiao, and they are not also leveled by us? Tang Dalong said, "Could it be that he Du Lisi is Nezha, with three heads and six arms?" ”
