Chapter 5 Night (1)

After the military meeting, everyone gathered together and left in twos and threes.

Pei Xiaoer walked with the Liu brothers, "Brother Zhizhi, what do you think of Coach Chen's method? Can it work?"

Pei Xiaoer asked in a low voice after seeing that no one was paying attention to them nearby.

"I don't know, brother, what do you think?" Liu Zhizu was not sure.

"I think Coach Chen's method is quite good. It will not only allow us to escape, but maybe we can also make a fortune." Liu Changle, who was a little out of character, interrupted.

"Shut up, you have no right to speak?"

When Liu Changle heard his brother's scolding, he curled his lips and did not dare to speak.

Pei Xiaoer glanced at Liu Zhizu, but he didn't expect that you, a thick-browed man with big eyes, would also start to play tricks.

But he didn't care too much. What time was it now? To put it bluntly, the black and white impermanence might have already been on the way.

"I find it difficult. No one in this world is stupid and will not let us take advantage of it. Besides..."

Pei Xiaoer wanted to say something more, but suddenly he saw the officers and soldiers who were supposed to be eating and drinking in the courtyard heading towards them.

Pei Xiaoer's current location is not far from the east gate of Zhuangzi, and daily training activities are held here.

"That's weird, what are these old men doing here when they've had enough to eat and nothing to do?" someone among the servants muttered.

Someone ran to report to Chen Chao. At this time, Coach Chen was still doing ideological work for more than 20 servants who had been with him for a long time.

These people belong to his core strength and must be firmly grasped. People like Pei Xiaoer, who came late, belong to the peripheral personnel. They belong to those who have dates and do not have dates. It does not matter if they have better ones or not.

Hearing that the officers and soldiers were coming for no reason, Chen Chao immediately ran out.

After a while, the officers and soldiers came closer, and saw the leader in the royal capital where he had just been appointed.

How could he come here when the spring breeze is triumphant and the horse's hooves are rushing?

Holding down his suspicion, Chen Chao stepped forward and said with a smile: "Mr. Wang Qi invited me, what's the important matter?"

"Instructor Chen, on the order of the county magistrate, is here to replace you and change the defense."

"Change the defense?" Chen Chao became more suspicious, but his expression became more respectful. "I don't dare to bother you brothers, we can just keep watch by ourselves."

"You dare to disobey the magistrate's military order? Do you want to rebel?" Wang Du was not polite at all, and put a big hat on Chen Chao's head.

"I don't dare, I don't dare. In this case, it's better for me to be respectful than to obey my orders. I'll help you all brothers." After saying this, Chen Chao waved his hand to the servants around him to withdraw from the east gate and let the officers and soldiers garrison.

Wangdu snorted coldly, and strode forward with his officers and soldiers to directly control the east gate.

Chen Chao stood there, his face ashen.

This was not in line with his plan. In his plan, these officers and soldiers were already drunk. The next day, he could ask the officers and soldiers to change defenses on the grounds that the servants had been stationed all night.

Then, while the officers and soldiers were fighting for their lives with the bandits, he took his servants and their families to escape through other doors. This is the term for the peripheral servants, and there is an additional one for the more than 20 people in the core, who can directly grab their lives when escaping.

The Pei family will be married. By then, all the women will have money.

The most difficult part in his plan was how to get the officers and soldiers to switch defenses with the servants. He even thought about setting up a small-scale mutiny. In the end, the switch was the simplest, but it was too early.

Looking at the suspicious looks in the servants' eyes, Chen Chao urgently needed to make a new plan. Without saying much, he ordered the other servants to go back to rest, while he took the core of more than 20 people to "watch the night."

Pei Xiaoer watched Chen Chao hurried away and did not dare to neglect. Time is life now, and he must have his father and his third brother. After a hasty farewell to the Liu brothers, Pei Xiaoer came to the place where the father and son lived.

The place where they live now is actually a haystack, where dried hay is piled together. Usually there are not many people coming and going here.

As soon as I got close, I heard a low voice, "Who?" After seeing that it was Pei Xiaoer, the visitor came out of the shadows and said, "Brother," it turned out to be Pei Xiaosan. He is quite clever.

Pei Xiaoer didn't say much. The most important thing now is to seize the time to rest and replenish his strength so that he can run faster and further tomorrow.

The moon entered the clouds and the night became darker.

Suddenly a noisy sound broke the tranquility of the night.

Pei Xiaoer woke up from his sleep. He touched the knife beside him and looked up to see that Pei Lao and Pei Xiaosan were both awake.

Signing to them to be quiet, Pei Xiaoer picked up the knife and was about to check the situation when he heard footsteps running towards their hiding place.

Pei Xiaoer and Xiaosan looked at each other with confusion in their eyes. But now was not the time to think about this. Pei Xiaoer turned around and motioned to Pei Xiaosan to pick up the fork next to him, no matter who took it first.

Pei Xiaosan gently picked up the fork next to him. When the person was passing by the haystack in a hurry, he reached out and pushed the fork forward, causing the person to trip and fall to the ground.

Pei Xiaoer saw the right opportunity and rushed forward to restrain the intruder. Father Pei also found a rope, and the three of them worked together to tie the person up. Just as they were about to question him, the pursuers had already surrounded the place.

Pei Xiaoer had no choice but to escort the visitor and walk towards the pursuers.

Pei Zhai, Tianzhi County, has been busy for half the night. Apart from entertaining Mr. Pei, he really doesn't worry about the city's defense. There is no one there, and he doesn't know if a servant sells the village to him. How can this be done?

Therefore, despite the complaints from the people, Magistrate Tian arranged for the royal capital to take over the city defense overnight.

After doing all this, Magistrate Tian could finally breathe a little easier.

Just as he was about to fall asleep, he was suddenly awakened by the urgent voice of his personal servant.

"Master, master, are you asleep? Commander Gang Wang has something to report, saying that he has caught a spy who is a thief."

The Tian Magistrate was a little scared after hearing this. Fortunately, I saved my life, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

Tonight, the lights of Pei's house were brightly lit. In the middle of the main hall, Magistrate Tian's high seat looked completely different from the embarrassment it had during the day. Wangdu and Mr. Pei were waiting on the left and right. In the center of the hall, the person who was prostrate on the ground, kowtowing and kept shouting for mercy, was the thief caught tonight.

I didn't bring the gavel with me today, so I felt a little uncomfortable. But it didn't affect the magistrate's dignity at all.

"Who are you? Whose order do you have to collude with the bandits? Why don't you recruit them quickly?"

"Master Qingtian, the villain is wronged. The villain did not collude with the bandits. He did not collude with the bandits. The villain is just... just..."

Before "just" came out, I heard the county magistrate yelling, "What? You are so bold and cunning and dare to quibble. Come on, give him fifty blows first."

The two men were not polite when they heard the words, and directly took the thief and walked down the hall.

The government officials are not here today, so the officers and soldiers can only take action in person.

These officers and soldiers are actually newly recruited from the army this year. They have not been in the army for a long time and have not yet learned the real and fake stick skills of the Yamen. They are all very sincere, and it is a real fight.

One stroke of the stick made him cry for father and mother. After less than twenty strokes, he passed out and screamed for help after being splashed with water.

A small place is a small place and cannot even train a dead soldier.

The county magistrate had no time to think about how this board could be so effective, so he immediately ordered someone to bring the thief over.
