After the bandit leader finished explaining what should be explained and what should not be explained, the general just signaled the people around him to let go of the military advisor whose mouth was covered.
As soon as the military advisor was let go, he immediately started shouting loudly. He only cursed the bandit leader for spewing blood and fabricating facts.
The bandit leader had sworn a strong oath, which showed that he cared very much about what he said. Now that the book boy said that what he said was a lie, he was naturally very unconvinced.
"Everything I say is true. You haven't done anything before, so I can't make it up. I'm not full of drama like you intellectuals!"
This bandit leader just doesn't know how to explain himself, otherwise there would really be nothing wrong with the book boy now.
But the book boy still had some brains, and he knew very well that the general he needed to convince the most now was the general.
After all, the other party has the power of life and death.
If he is willing to let himself go, then he will naturally survive.
If the other party refuses to let him go, then he will die without a burial place.
Therefore, after a brief argument with the bandit, he immediately targeted the general.
"Sir, he is really full of nonsense. As a scholar, I can't bear my shoulders or lift my hands. How can I do that for them? They just want me to join them because they see my brain. "
"I admit that I am timid and I am afraid of death! But no one in this world is afraid of death. Compared with serving as a military advisor to bandits, death is more terrifying. I don't want to die in their hands, so I reluctantly agreed to be their military advisor. , but I never gave up on escaping. I want to live a normal life, and I don’t want to be a bandit. They want to drag me to die with them."
After hearing what the other party said, the general naturally did not intend to settle the case on the spot. After all, he was not here to settle the case this time, but was invited by Jin Wang Zhao Yanzhen to discuss the elimination of bandits.
So now he still said to the scholar, "Okay, you don't need to say more, who is right and who is wrong. When you get to the government, there will be people who will give you justice. If you are really unjust, Mr. Guo will naturally Let you go, if you really did this, he won't let you go."
The boy was naturally unconvinced when he heard this, but the majestic look from the general made him dare not say anything more.
After saying this to the book boy, he just turned to look at the bandit leader and said, "As for you, I'm not talking about you. The things you did and the words you said, whether they are true or not, But just because you got into such trouble today, you won’t be able to get over it.”
After listening to the general's words, the bandit leader only said, "We are in this business with our heads on our belts. I know that this day will come to me sooner or later! I kill people! People kill me!"
Although he said he was indifferent and took life and death lightly, the bandit was obviously still a little disappointed and vaguely regretful.
Maybe if I hadn't gone up the mountain and fallen into the trap of a bandit, maybe I wouldn't be so cowardly waiting to die now.
But looking back on those years, he also knew that it was impossible for someone as restless as him not to fall into the trap of a robber. After all, in a sheep circle where only sheep could exist, it would be impossible for a wolf to abide by the law. possible.
Naturally, the general had no intention of paying attention to the mess between these two people.
After he finished speaking, he looked at the dark sky and decided to get on his horse and leave quickly.
After all, maybe King Jin and the others are still waiting for him.
Afterwards, the group indeed marched quickly again. Along the way, they walked very fast. But some stragglers who were on the run were also captured.
And when he finally arrived at the outer city of Leiyang from Yunzhou, almost all of the bandits who had invaded Leiyang City today fell into their hands.
When they arrived outside Leiyang City, the guards above Leiyang City naturally saw the large team. At first, the sentries above thought the other party was an enemy intruder, but after they looked over. It soon became apparent that the other party was not like this.
Because the opponent was obviously marching very neatly, and the closer they got, they could see that the opponent was flying a red flag with an eagle painted on it. The defenders also recognized this flag. After all, who was near Yunzhou?
I don’t know the flag of the Yunzhou frontier army.
The guards remembered that Shangfeng told them when they returned to the city in the morning that if they saw the flag of the Yunzhou border army in the past few days, no matter what the situation was, they should tell them immediately.
Now when the guard saw the flag of the Yunzhou border army, he naturally happily put down what he was observing. Then he walked out and immediately reported what he saw to his superiors.
After receiving the information from the guards, the superior naturally immediately sent someone to deliver the message to the Yamen.
After the Yamen received the letter, Guo Shizhang immediately sent someone to notify Zhao Yanzhen. At the same time, he immediately dressed up his clothes and led all the officials in the city to the city gate to greet the Yunzhou border army.
This time the people did not get the news. They didn't know who was coming, but many people were watching on the main road of Leiyang City just to watch the excitement.
At this time, the inner and outer city gates outside the main road of Leiyang City were completely opened. After waiting for only a moment, a group of mighty troops entered the city with flags flying. Z.br>
After they entered the city, the people in the city, except for the officials, suddenly realized that this time the Yunzhou border army was really coming.
When they saw the soldiers in silver armor riding tall horses and leisurely approaching them, the people in the city immediately cheered, and they gave these Yunzhou frontier soldiers the most enthusiastic treatment.
Especially when there were older girls and younger wives who saw that the spirits of these frontier soldiers were much better than those around them, they would throw fruits and flowers at each other from time to time, and some even boldly just took out their own personal scarves. Push it into the hands of the army over there.
The border troops refused to accept their gifts. They walked forward with a solemn look.
In fact, most of them, except for the general who is really handsome, most of them can only be regarded as ordinary.
However, the years of training against enemies in the wind and sand have only given them a look that is completely different from others.
Even though many people were embarrassed by the wind and sand, they still looked full of energy. Especially those eyes, like unsheathed swords.
When the general finally arrived at Magistrate Na Guo, he only took the initiative to get off his horse.
Magistrate Guo immediately came over and said, "Hello, General Chen."
Naturally, the general could only say, "Hello, Magistrate Guo."
And after saying this. His eyes began to wander around.
Magistrate Guo could only greet the general while he couldn't help but ask, "Colonel Chen, what are you looking at?"
Seeing Magistrate Guo ask this question, Captain Chen only said, "I'm looking for His Highness. I heard that Your Highness is also in Leiyang City now, and he found me, so naturally I have to look for him."
Upon hearing this, County Magistrate Guo immediately smiled and said, "We have sent people to inform His Highness. His Highness is probably on his way to us after getting the news. If you can't wait, we can also stay directly at His Highness's current residence." It’s okay to go.”
After hearing Magistrate Guo's words, Colonel Chen only pondered for a moment, and then he asked in a low voice, "Let's go to the government office first."
Upon hearing what the other party said, the county magistrate immediately took the person to the government office.
At the same time, when they arrived at the government office, Zhao Yanzhen had just stopped his carriage in front of the government office.
Therefore, the group of people bumped into each other at the entrance of the government office.
When Zhao Yanzhen saw the young man surrounded by the county magistrate, he couldn't help but smile slightly.
Naturally, the young man also saw Zhao Yanzhen. He immediately saluted Zhao Yanzhen, and then whispered, "Jinghuai has met His Highness Prince Jin."
Zhao Yanzhen, who was seen, just smiled and said, "Chen Jinghuai, we haven't seen each other for a long time."
Seeing that Zhao Yanzhen was so close to the other party, County Magistrate Guo naturally understood that the other party was probably the person that King Jin wanted to greet tonight.
Unexpectedly, he had heard in the capital that King Jin had no nostalgia for the Chen family, but now it seemed that the one he had no nostalgia for was probably the Chen family, not the Xiao Chen family.
After a few people exchanged greetings, Zhao Yanzhen only said, "Why are there so many irrelevant people following you?"
After hearing what he said, everyone naturally pretended to have just seen the bandits.
When Zhao Yanzhen asked about this, Chen Jinghuai immediately explained in a low voice, "I met this group of people on the road. They were having internal strife at the time! We wanted to know what they were doing! So we arrested them. I heard that they were defeated when they tried to capture Leiyang City before, and they were defeated by 300 men with only 2,000 people. Now speaking of it, it seems that the magistrate is a good leader!"
Upon hearing this, the county magistrate immediately smiled and waved his hands and said, "Thank you, sir, how can we be regarded as good leaders! I just didn't make any embarrassing jokes, and this idea was not mine. It's the counselor next to King Jin who gives us advice, otherwise we might not be able to wait for the Yunzhou border troops to come to our aid."
Hearing what the other party said, he saw Magistrate Guo pointing at one of them. Naturally, he quickly saw that person, and that person was Yan Ziqing. Yan Ziqing obviously didn't want to see Chen Jinghuai here.
The two looked at each other, but they were old acquaintances after all.
When he saw Chen Jinghuai looking at him, he couldn't help but say, "Colonel Chen."
And Chen Jinghuai just nodded lightly.
Looking at it like this, the two of them seemed to have just met.
However, County Magistrate Guo didn't think so much. He just continued to look at the group of bandits.
Chen Jinghuai also planned to hand over these people from the beginning, so when he saw the county magistrate looking at the bandits like this, he couldn't help but take the initiative to say, "These people should be yours, and I just happened to I found something wrong, so I will return this person to his original owner. You can deal with these people as you see fit! I won’t have any objections."
Upon hearing Chen Jinghuai's words, the county magistrate immediately smiled and thanked him.
