"Everyone, please get up."

Pei Yue couldn't help but feel a little moved when he saw the sincere gratitude on the faces of these simple farmers.

Deng Zai's grandfather Deng Shi stood in front of the crowd, and said with uncontrollable excitement: "The young master did not hesitate to spend a lot of money, just to avenge us mud-legged people, and he was willing to take extraordinary risks to go into the mountains to suppress the bandits. His kindness and kindness will never be forgotten." Green

Everyone at Liuzhuang is willing to die for the young master!"

"I am willing to die for the young master!"

Instead of getting up, the farmers knelt on their knees and kowtowed respectfully to Pei Yue.

Pei Yue quickly stepped forward to help Deng Shi up, then walked to the side and kicked Deng Zai, who was kneeling on the ground, and laughed and cursed at the teenagers: "What did I tell you before? Forget it all? Hurry up?

Go and help everyone up."

Deng Zai was kicked, but he showed a rare smile and immediately stood up to help others.

Qi Min was behind him, with a rather resentful look in his eyes, sighing secretly that even if he tried his best to get things done, Deng Mutou was still the most valued in the young master's heart, otherwise why wouldn't he be the one who got kicked?

Even though Pei Yue has been in this world for more than half a year, sometimes he still can't understand people of this era. He just did it because Deng Zaili was the closest.

After these young men helped the farmers who were kowtowing to their feet, Pei Yue looked at these honest men and said sincerely: "When I first came to Zhuangzi, I told you that this is my home, so I must

Should shoulder your own responsibilities. Since you regard me as your master, how can you expect others to step up if I don't step up?"

He raised his hand and pressed it softly to stop the bankers' still unfamiliar flattery, and continued: "I have no other requirements for you. Just live your life honestly and peacefully. Okay, I just came back, and there are still many things to do.

Everyone, please go back first."

Although after so many experiences, these bankers are loyal and available, Pei Yue has no intention of continuing to train these people. Just as he said to Deng Zai before leaving, the bankers' mandarin duck formation is practiced every two days.

Just be able to protect yourself from predators.

There are not many soldiers but fine soldiers. As long as those young men can become talents under Mr. Xi's guidance, Pei Yue will be satisfied. As for these bankers in their thirties and forties, to be honest, there is too little potential to be tapped, and their characters have already been stereotyped.

No matter how much you practice, it is difficult to become a knife that you are comfortable with.

The farmers dispersed obediently, and Pei Yue returned to the main house surrounded by the teenagers.

From time to time, older girls and younger girls greeted each other shyly along the way, and Pei Yue responded with a gentle tone. Everyone had smiles on their faces, except Peach Blossom, who stared at the girls who were about the same age as herself with her eyes wide open, and her thoughts were self-evident.

Seeing this, Pei Yue stretched out his hand to rub her head and said with a smile, "Have you slept peacefully in the village these two days?"

Taohua immediately calmed down and said softly: "This is the young master's home, isn't it my home?"

"Of course, I shouldn't ask that."

"Master, if you don't ask, you don't care about me."

Pei Yue stared at the little girl with a strange expression. Why did his words sound a bit like a woman's coquettishness?

Mr. Xi next to him smiled and said: "It seems that after going out for a while, the peach blossoms have also grown up."

Taohua looked at Pei Yue anxiously. Aunt Leng taught her this in private. Although she didn't know if it was useful, she couldn't help but use it as soon as she saw Pei Yue.

Pei Yue just thought about it for a moment and knew what was going on. He didn't expose it at the moment, but just laughed and said: "It's better to grow up, you can't always be a child."

Taohua couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but at the same time she breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid that Pei Yue would be angry because of her slightly bold words.

If you think about it this way, it's not the worst outcome.

Pei Yue did not notice the strange look on the little maid's face. After entering the main house, he said to Deng Zai and others: "You go back to practice first. My husband and I have something to discuss."

"Yes, Master."

After walking through the atrium and arriving at the main hall, Taohua served tea and said to Pei Yue: "Master, you and your husband talk about something, and I will help Aunt Qi cook."

Pei Yue smiled and said, "Okay."

Taohua bowed her head and left, holding her hands in front of her lower abdomen, looking a little nervous and shy, but her eyes soon became firm, as if she had made an important decision that affected her entire life.

Pei Yue's eyes followed the little maid's back. He waited until she disappeared from the door and then looked back. Then he saw Mr. Xi's warm and appreciative eyes.

The middle-aged man looked at the young man's increasingly calm and steady expression, and after a moment he said: "Your more than one month of experience is far better than the six months you spent studying with me before. It seems that real gold is invincible only when it is tempered by fire.

reason."

Pei Yue shook his head and said humbly: "Without the foundation laid by my husband, I wouldn't be able to accomplish anything in the mountains."

Mr. Xi asked with concern: "Have you encountered any danger during this trip?"

Pei Yue replied: "In general, it went smoothly, but I would like to ask your husband to help me review it."

Mr. Xi nodded and said, "You say."

Pei Yue started from the military meeting in Chen Guanzhen. Everything was detailed and detailed, and nothing was concealed.

Mr. Xi listened very carefully and never interrupted. He just listened quietly and patiently.

After Pei Yue finished speaking, Mr. Xi pondered for a moment and said warmly: "You did a good job, but there are a few things that can be handled more perfectly."

"Sir, please give me some advice." Pei Yue sat upright.

"Since you are determined to trample Chang Si to death, your response seems hesitant. At the military meeting in Chenguan Town, Chang Si wanted to take credit for the Western Camp. You should not have said the golden mean that both battalions can send troops, but

He should be forced to issue a military order. Whoever can eradicate the bandits will be rewarded, and whoever fails will be beheaded. In this way, if Chang Si loses in the end, even if the emperor doesn't behead him for Li Bingzhong's sake, in the end he will be beheaded.

His title will also be deposed next time. But now, although his command is poor, he will not be severely punished. Not to mention losing his head, he will not lose his title. At most, he will be demoted in official position and fined a few years' salary."

"What Mr. said is that I was not decisive enough at that time."

"After entering the mountain, the West Camp was attacked. Since Li Jin is willing to ask your opinion, you should not let him send troops to rescue immediately. You have to wait for at least half an hour, until the bandits and the West Camp are completely confused, and then your South Camp

If someone sneaks closer, they can completely surround the thieves on both sides of the hillside."

After hesitating for a moment, Pei Yue retorted: "Sir, many people will die in that case."

Mr. Xi's face suddenly turned serious, and he said in a deep voice: "How can we not die in a war?"

"But-" Pei Yue still wanted to argue.

Mr. Xi interrupted him for the first time: "I know what you are thinking, and I also know that it is because you are kind-hearted and can't bear the heavy casualties of Xiying's soldiers. But brother Yue, Ci Bu is in charge of the army, can you understand?

?Those people in Xiying are not old, weak, women and children. They should be mentally prepared to die when they go to the battlefield. Without knowing the specific situation of the battlefield, you lead people to rush forward. What if the other party has back-up plans? What about you?

how to respond?"

Pei Yue opened his mouth, but made no sound.

Mr. Xi's tone was slightly softer: "Even if the opponent has no backup, some people still escaped. This is because you did not look at the battle situation from the position of a commander. If you can be less anxious, wait for Xiying's arrival

People become completely mournful soldiers, able to fight each other completely. No matter how well you organize the outside encirclement, none of the thieves will be able to escape."

"As for Chang Si, if the losses in Xiying exceed what Changxing Hou Qujiang can bear, do you think he can survive?"

Pei Yue was speechless.

Although he still couldn't fully accept such an approach in a short period of time, he also knew that Mr. Xi was thinking about himself. After all, this middle-aged man once said that you can't hesitate or be soft-hearted when facing the enemy, otherwise he will die.
