In Mizhi City, the war in the west city was still burning, and the shouts of killing continued to be heard with the bitter autumn wind, and there was also a strong smell of blood. The rolling smoke was also accompanied by the northwest wind, covering the entire Mizhi sky. The weather was just afternoon, but it made people feel that at night, there were constantly black ashes falling in the sky, scattering on everyone's heads, making everyone in the entire county town covered in dust. But now the quiet Dongcheng and Beicheng, no one was concerned about the banging down on them on the road, and they ran back and forth in dust.

Listen carefully, the shouts of killing in Xicheng have begun to spread to the central axis of Mizhi and near the county government. It is an occupied land without mud. It seems that the war is no longer dominated by mud.

Chen Ce took Geng Kui and Zhao Xing, but didn't say much. He just exchanged a simple greeting and pulled Geng Kui and Zhao Xing to the small courtyard where he temporarily lived.

The courtyard is an independent courtyard with exquisite architecture. It was originally a courtyard of a wealthy scholar, with a black and white gatehouse, several bluestone steps, and a circle of deliberately built courtyard walls with uneven heights, giving people a different aesthetic. In front of the courtyard gate, two young men with poles observed the surroundings vigilantly. When they saw the military advisor coming with outsiders, they didn't say much. One pushed open the gate and invited everyone in, and the other walked a few steps to enter the courtyard and headed straight to the wing room on the left.

Chen Ce said to the remaining young man as he walked: "Looking at the door, don't let anyone get close to me."

The little pole quickly bowed and agreed, then closed the door, pressed the handle of the knife to face the street, and watched the pedestrians coming and going to watch the pedestrians coming and going.

As soon as I entered the yard, the yard was not just a yellow soil like other people. The road trails were neatly paved with blue bricks. In front of the main hall tile house, several peach and apricot trees were planted in an orderly manner, and several stone tables and benches were placed under the trees.

There are three main rooms, the middle one is considered as the living room, with tables and chairs placed against the wall, and there are calligraphy and painting banners on the wall, and there are also a row of coffee tables and stools on both sides. The left and right rooms are thought to be the owner's bedroom. When the three of them came in, they felt a few uneasy sounds of tables and chairs moving from the east room.

Chen Ce and the little pole put the teapot and bowl down, and winked at the little pole. The little pole understood and entered the east room and said kindly: "My military advisor has important guests to entertain, please ask the gentleman and wife to rest in the side room."

A muffled groan came from the room, followed by a serene sound. When the curtain was raised, a pale scholar hurried out with a woman, and without saying hello to Chen Ce and others, he walked out so proudly.

When the scholar took the woman away, Chen Ce quickly poured hot tea for Geng Kui himself, and then held it with both hands. Geng Kui was not polite, so he strode down as the guest seat. Zhao Xing smiled, took the hot tea that Chen Ce held, and sat down at Geng Kui. Chen Ce also sat on a chair on his right hand.

As everyone had just sat down, Geng Kui and Chen Ce asked nervously, "How is it?"

Then the two were stunned, Geng Kui shut up, and Chen Ce bowed again and said, "How is it?"

Geng Kui knew what Chen Ce wanted to ask, so he briefly explained how to arrange the government army this time and how to set up an ambush in Woniu Mountain. The government army was defeated and captured by himself, then surrendered to Woniu Mountain, and then volunteered to come to the city.

Then he said anxiously: "Brother, now the magistrate of Mizhi County has obtained the approval of Yan'an, issued a reward clause to rectify the local township warriors. Not only did they give troops to the tyrants, but they also promised that if they had seized the taxes and money and grain, they would not return them to the government, they would be rewarded for the thief. The Mizhi Money and Grain Master announced to the public with ulterior motives. The total amount of money and grain reached as much as 700,000, which made all the township warriors who knew about this matter be eager to be jealous." Geng Kui said in a black and white manner, looking at Chen Ce in shock, Geng Kui made another news and said: "The captured border general has also known this matter. This time it was because of his greed that everyone was caught."

Chen Ce thought about it, leaned out and asked Zhao Xing in a low voice, "I don't know how Mr. Lu Shi from Woniu Mountain will treat this general?"

Zhao Xing smiled and said, "The border army is powerful. Although it is still fighting with the Mongolian Tartars, the Mongolian Tartars' habits have always been in the habit of the Mongolian Tartars. As long as the weather gets colder, they should turn back to the prairie with the plundered property and the population to enjoy the trophy. The tens of thousands of border troops will be freed up." Looking at Chen Ce with an anxious face and listening quietly, Zhao Xing said again: "The border army has been in continuous intersection for hundreds of years and has become a system of generals and relatives. Although there are also internal struggles, it is very protective and united to the outside world. Our Woniu Mountain is a small mountain village, and it is not stupid enough to kill the general and welcome the revenge of the border troops. Therefore, we will release the general only when the battle is over."

Chen Ce was stunned, but after thinking about it for a moment, he felt relieved, but then asked: "Aren't you afraid that the general will gather his troops to retaliate against you?"

Zhao Xing smiled lightly, leaned his body on the back of the chair, picked up the tea bowl at his hand and took a sip of it, moistened his throat, "This is because Brother Chen Ce is too worried. My military advisor analyzed that the general will never lead the official army to retaliate against my small village, but will definitely motivate the army to retaliate against several larger villages."

Geng Kui said, "First, a powerful general who has been in the battlefield for a long time, led by two thousand towns and dozens of personal soldiers, was defeated by a small Woniu Mountain two thousand wounded soldiers. If you say this, the general lost the face of the border army, and he had just been in the border army system. So he would never say that he wanted us to defeat the prisoners. He would blame the real winner of this alliance. Second, in order to make up for the military pay, money and food owed by the court, and also let the exhausted soldiers who had been fighting for a long time spend the winter. The border army thought that he would also like to take this huge amount of money and food. He would definitely find the governor to find the last winner of this alliance to fight for the last winner of this alliance. He won military merits and hundreds of thousands of money and food. Why not do that?"

After Geng Kui and Zhao Xing snorted and harsh, Chen Ce was already sweating on his forehead. It seemed that his master, who was a very ambitious and talented, was really going to be in trouble this time. What should I do?

For a moment, my mind became muddy, so I stood up in a hurry and walked back and forth between the ground.

"Brother Chen Ce, don't worry, either." Geng Kui stood up and patted the anxious Chen Ce's shoulder, and comforted softly.

"Brother is joking. Now that I have reached this point, why am I not in a hurry?"

Geng Kui deliberately pretended to be surprised and asked, "What? Is there something unspeakable to my brother? You might as well tell me it and listen to my brother, maybe there is still some room for maneuver."

Chen Ce had a kind of dependence on Geng Kui. Today, when he saw his brother, he had already had some reliance on his wandering heart, so he wanted to tell his brother that he was in his copycat, but when he saw Zhao Xing in a blink of an eye, he swallowed the words back.

When Geng Kui saw this, he couldn't help laughing and said bluntly: "Brother, I know, I don't know if your boss is now still holding on to the army, and he has the intention of a fisherman fighting for the snipe and clam to gain profit?"

Chen Ce was stunned. Unexpectedly, his master's thoughts were now known to everyone. He couldn't help but say embarrassedly: "Brother is smart, that's exactly what he means."

Geng Kui smiled and said, "Don't praise my brother, I am a rough man. Where can I infer such calculations and inferences be made by my military advisor."

When Chen Ce heard this, he couldn't help but admire Lu Shi even more.

"It is understandable to say that in this chaotic world, the fisherman's profits are profitable. Not only should he not be despised, but he should praise him for judging the situation and being superior to others." Zhao Xing praised non-simplely.

Chen Ce frowned even more and said worriedly: "Brother Zhao Xing is ridiculing me?"

"Don't dare, don't dare." Zhao Xing quickly stood up and bowed to Chen Ce to apologize.

"It was not impossible to take the fisherman's plan to make profits, but at this time it was a fire. I've seen this a long time ago."

"Brother Chen Ce, since you have seen it, have you not stopped you as a military advisor?"

"Oh--" Chen Ce made a thrill, sat down on a chair with a depressed look, pressed his knees with both hands and shook his head helplessly.

Everyone stopped talking and just looked at Chen Ce with their eyes, waiting for his answer.

"I am just a bookkeeper in the eyes of the Hu Dazhuo, and I can't say anything at all. Now the pickled things around the boss have been lost by Chengshan's money and food. I just urged the boss to seize this shit opportunity to grab all the money and food. Hey, I didn't know that I had stepped into the gate of hell with one foot. I made a few suggestions, but I only made a mess. It's a pity that the brothers and people on the mountain, what can I do?" After saying that, I just shook my head helplessly, looking discouraged and lazy.

Geng Kui and Zhao Xing met, and looked at each other, then Geng Kui asked carefully: "Brother, don't sigh first. Since you have read more books of sages and love the people, how can you bear to see the whole village being brought into the abyss by these dirty things? You'll think of a solution."

Chen Ce still shook his head helplessly and sighed: "There is a solution, that is, immediately join forces with the Woniu Mountain brothers outside the city and the men and horses of Gaiu Tian, ​​and join the forces of our three families to immediately mediate the fight between Wumu and a tiger, divide this large pile of money and grain, reduce the goal, preserve the strength for everyone, and then explain the interests. I hope everyone will give up their past grudges. When the official army or the township brave men attack, everyone will respond and restrain each other, overcome this difficulty, and wait for the opportunity to make a comeback." When he said this, his eyes lit up. He raised his head and looked at Geng Kui and Zhao Xing and said: "It seems that your military advisor also came up with this idea. Otherwise, he wouldn't let brother and Zhao Xing take the risk to enter the city, right?"

Geng Kui and Zhao Xing no longer kept insincere and nodded at the time: "That's what it means, it depends on your thoughts now."
