Chapter 270

Under Sun Tuqian's eyes, Wu Song did not nodded in agreement, because he had some concerns after all. Not long ago, he suffered a great loss at the hands of Zhang Dujian of Mengzhou, and almost failed to protect his life. It was difficult for him to fully trust another imperial chief, even if the other party had just fought side by side with him.

Sun Tu also saw this and did not persuade him too quickly. He just smiled and said, "Brother Wu is a hero of the world. I just hope that your martial arts can play a greater role in the people of the world. As long as you want to join the army and I am still in the army, you are welcome to join me at any time."

This statement made Wu Song's favorable impression of him a little bit, and he nodded and responded. Then, Sun Tu turned his eyes to Zhu Biao: "Zhu Sanlang, you are also very skilled in martial arts, have you ever thought about serving the court?"

Zhu Biao shook his head gently and declined Sun Tu's recruitment: "Thank you, Brother Sun, for your love, but I am responsible for your responsibility, and at least I cannot leave in the short term. Although most of the horse thieves that have caused trouble to Jeju for many days have been eradicated, the newly emerging Liangshanbo bandits have been eyeing me Zhujiazhuang, and I dare not leave easily."

"Since that's the case, I don't want to force it. Although Qingzhou is not short, as long as Brother Zhu, you have difficulties, just send a letter to you. If you can help, I will definitely not refuse." Sun Tu made another promise, and naturally got Zhu Biao's thanks. Then, several people changed the topic and talked about how to deal with these horse thieves. Only then did they speak, but one of them interrupted with dissatisfaction. It was Hu Rong who had an unhappy expression: "Hey, Sun... Brother Sun, why are you so arrogant? Do you look down on me?" As soon as she said that, she noticed some grammatical problems, and her pretty face turned slightly red. Fortunately, everyone had drunk wine, and her face was already rosy, and she couldn't see anything unusual.

Sun Tu was stunned, then smiled and clasped his fists and said, "I was negligent. I forgot to ask Miss Hu what you mean... It's not that I don't like Miss, your martial arts, there is really no precedent for accepting women in the army. Moreover, as far as I know, the Hujiazhuang where the girl is is is right next to Zhujiazhuang. With your martial arts, I'm afraid you need to guard your home like Zhu Sanlang?"

After hearing this, Hu Rong's eyes sagged, and she seemed a little uncomfortable. She was indeed a little annoyed that she was not a man and had not been valued by her father since she was a child. Even though she grew up with martial arts, her father was still regarded as a bargaining chip for the Zhu family. For this reason, she had to stay with Zhu Biao often. She was really unwilling to accept it.

Seeing that she was in a low mood, Sun Tu smiled and comforted her: "Miss Hu, don't be angry. In fact, I always thought that women may not be inferior to men, and it is the same when I go to the battlefield to kill enemies. But today, I will take it for granted. But as long as I have the heart and rely on the girl's ability, I will definitely change my views in the future."

"Are you telling it seriously?" A glimmer of surprise flashed in Hu Rong's eyes, which was something she had never heard before. Sun Tuze nodded: "Let's do this, if I can really establish a firm foothold in Qingzhou, I will find a way to recruit some women into the camp. If Miss Hu is willing to join the army and serve the country by then, I can hand over this army to you for command."

"Ah... you are a real man, don't be careless!" Hu Rong was so excited that she almost jumped out of her seat, looking at Sun Tu with a blush on her face and said anxiously.

"Of course, although I am not a noble person, I still keep my word."

"Let's high-fives be a covenant." Hu Rong was really straightforward and immediately stretched out his hand. Sun Tu was stunned and smiled and wanted to fight her, but Zhu Biao stopped him: "Brother Sun, this is not a joke. Sister Rong, don't take such a fantasy matter seriously. How can a woman really fight to the enemy?" In fact, it was not only him, but also the heroes like Wu Song and Luda, who were also very shocked by the conversation between the two, and their faces were full of surprise. They really didn't expect Sun Tu to have such a strange idea.

Hu Rong's excited expression immediately dissipated after hearing this. Did Sun Tu say so just to please him? But in this moment, Sun Tu's hand slapped her gently: "I think women have something more powerful than men, but many people are reluctant to admit it now. Since I said that, I have my own reason and will never change it!"

Hu Rong was immediately happy when she heard this, and immediately shrank and sent her away. She ran into Sun Tu two palms again, which really made the appointment and completely stunned the people with the previous ones.

Afterwards, the few people drank some more wine with their own thoughts. After nourishing their spirits, they decided to send the captured horses and corpses to Jeju Prefecture and hand them over to the officials there for disposal. Of course, it is impossible for them to bring and escort dozens of people with only a few of them, so they could only let the people in Qingdian Town help transport them together.

Shortly after noon, a team of thirty or forty people appeared near the west gate of Jeju Prefecture City, which immediately attracted the attention of the soldiers guarding the city. During this period, due to the thieves, there were not many pedestrian caravans coming and going here. When they saw that the coming team was transporting more than a dozen or twenty bloody corpses, and some people were still tied up and escorted over with wounds, they were even more wary. Before the team could approach, someone raised the weapons in his hands and shouted loudly: "Who are you waiting for? What's going on?"

Sun Tu and Wang Xi, the Lizheng of Qingdian Town, met first and revealed their identities. The ordinary guards did not recognize the official edicts Sun Tu took out, but finally recognized Wang Xi's identity. When they learned that the corpses and prisoners were actually bandits who were regarded as beasts, they were even more stunned. After a while, they said, "This... is this true?"

"It's true. As long as you let us meet the local officials, you will know." Sun Tu showed the momentum he had raised for several years. He stepped forward and looked at the other party and ordered. The guard was indeed suppressed by his expression and tone. He did not dare to delay any further. He immediately took the team to the city to meet the local prefect Gu Tongzhou.

When Sun Tu and his friends swaggered their bodies through the city gate and entered Jeju City, the incident immediately caused a great sensation. After inquiring, many people also learned about the origin of these prisoners, and immediately followed them up to watch, and some ran around to announce the good news of the day to the others in the city.

Therefore, when Sun Tu and his friends arrived in front of the government office, hundreds of people with surprise were surrounded by people behind him, making noises, attracting all the superiors and subordinates in the office.

Gu Tongzhou was a little suspicious after hearing the newspaper, but when he saw that the matter was getting worse, he could only come forward to investigate in person. After seeing the official edict sent by Sun Tucheng and the Ministry of War investigation, he believed the matter three times. Then, he asked someone to carefully interrogate Bai Kuan and other prisoners.

At this time, the prisoners had already accepted their fate and did not have to torture the government to them. They honestly explained their exact identity, and also told them the specific details of the case they had done before. In this way, the people in the government completely believed that Sun Tu and the others had helped them defeat the horse thieves, which immediately made the people in the yamen excited for a long time.

Even the prefect Gu Tongzhou then stood up excitedly to Sun Tu, bowing to him and said, "Sun Dujian is really the benefactor of my Jeju officials. You don't know how much effort we have spent to eliminate this horse thief, but every time we return without success, and how many innocent people are buried in their hands. It's really a great contribution to capture them today. I must submit to the court to ask for me for you from Sun Dujian."

"The Guardian Gu's words are serious, and the subordinates are just a coincidence and fulfill their duties. In fact, the subordinates are originally from my Jeju Prefecture, which is considered to be the harm to the elders of my hometown." Sun Tu hurriedly said modestly, and then said seriously: "And this time, the subordinates only captured and killed some horse thieves. There are still many thieves who are still alive, but this requires the Guardian Gu to send troops to encircle and suppress them. I dare not be greedy for merit."

When he heard Sun Tu's attitude, Gu Tongzhou became more and more happy and nodded repeatedly: "This is naturally. I am responsible for defending the people of the country and protecting the people. Since there has been a great breakthrough, I will completely eliminate this disaster for the people of Jeju this time." At the same time, I had an idea in my mind. Of course, the big contribution of this is his own, but I should have helped such an informed and tactful colleague.

Just as the two were talking, the officials of the yamen next to him suddenly exclaimed: "This... isn't this the great charity in the city, Mr. Hu? Why did he die at the hands of everyone?" But someone recognized Hu Mingzong's identity in the open.

Sun Tu had asked everything from Bai Kuan before, and immediately explained it to them, which shocked everyone present again. Some officials even sighed repeatedly: "No wonder... I said that no matter how I asked before, I couldn't find the exact clues of these horse thieves. It turned out that they had always been hiding in my Jeju Prefecture City as a good citizen."

But Gu Tongzhou felt a stern. Once this matter was announced, it would not be very beneficial to him. Fortunately, Sun Tu then said: "Master Gu, this is a good opportunity to capture all the remnants of horse thieves in one go. I think Hu Mingzong must have many accomplices in the city, and these people will definitely find clues from his family..."

After waking up the dreamer, the prefect Gu immediately cheered up and said, "No, it's better, let's send people to the Great Suohu family now. I want to wipe out all the sound horse thieves!"

Soon, the entire Jeju official army was mobilized and dispatched everywhere to capture the remnants of the horses, but Sun Tu and the others did not continue to take action. They said goodbye early and left the city and set off again on the way to Qingzhou to take office.

A few days later, this roaring horse thief that had been rampant for more than two years in Jeju was completely wiped out. It is said that several leaders and leaders were either killed or arrested. Only Han Benshan, the third leader, was able to escape because he was not in Jeju...
