"What did you say? The Changfeng garrison of the Shun'an Army in Hejian Prefecture has moved?"

Shenzhou's moral integrity Jiang Cheng was very surprised.

"Are they retreating again?"

The sentry who came to report the news shook his head.

"They didn't go to Bazhou," he said.

Bazhou!

Jiang Cheng jumped up from his chair.

"Have the people in Hejian Prefecture gone crazy?" he shouted.

But he soon realized that the people of Hejian Prefecture were not crazy, and he also won the merit of killing more than 200 gold bandits and capturing a large number of armors.

"Are you really that bold?" Jiang Caoshou was surprised.

"It's not that we are too brave, but that Mrs. Chengguo is here." Several generals came overnight with more detailed information.

Upon hearing that it was Mrs. Cheng Guo who asked him to do this, Jiang Caoshou remained silent for a while with a complicated expression.

Shenzhou is adjacent to Baozhou, and part of the Yongning Army that was originally in Baozhou retreated here at this time.

Mrs. Chengguo asked the Shun'an Army to take action, and she would definitely ask the Yongning Army as well.

"Is the reason to bring back the people from the three counties?" Jiang Caoshou asked.

The generals nodded.

"That makes sense. It's not really disobeying orders." A general said with a bit of excitement, "Sir, then we..."

It was really frustrating for these generals to give up the land they had guarded for so many years.

Unfortunately, the emperor’s order is difficult to disobey.

"Isn't that considered disobedience?" Jiang Caoshou said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty ordered Duke Cheng to withdraw his troops, but he not only refused to do so, but he sent his troops here instead."

"No, no." A general said hurriedly, "I heard that they are not Duke Cheng's soldiers."

"With such strong fighting power, what else could they be but Duke Cheng's soldiers?" Jiang Caoshou said, "Duke Cheng never had any servants, and everyone knows that."

If they were his soldiers, it would be a crime. If they were his family servants, it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor, and he might even be charged with raising private soldiers.

Under such circumstances, if they obeyed the order and did this, they would definitely not escape the blame.

The hall fell into silence.

Tian Yao in Changfeng City was also silent.

"Madam, you are right." He finally spoke, and looked at Miss Jun again, "Miss Jun's Qingshan Army is also very powerful. Whether from the perspective of reason or feasibility, we can do this."

Madam Yu looked at him.

"But what?" she asked.

"But Madam, you have to make it clear who the Qingshan Army is?" Tian Yao said.

"Let me make it clear." Miss Jun said, "These are my people. We are farmers. We are not Duke Cheng's soldiers. We just come to help."

Tian Yao looked at her.

"Who are you, miss?" he asked, "and why are you here to help?"

"Why is this so?" Miss Jun frowned, "This kind of thing..."

She wanted to say that every citizen of the Great Zhou had to stand up against this kind of thing, but Madam Yu smiled and interrupted her.

"Well, I won't lie to you, Master Tian." She said, "This Miss Jun is my daughter-in-law who is not yet married."

ah?

Everyone present was stunned.

Daughter-in-law?

"Yes, my son Zhu Zan's fiancée." Madam Yu continued, "She was originally farming at home. She heard that the situation here was tense and I was going to Hejian Prefecture. Duke Cheng couldn't spare the time to take care of me, so she brought her fellow villagers to accompany me here."

Really farming? And the villagers?

Everyone in the hall looked at Miss Jun with strange expressions.

Miss Jun also had a strange look on her face. She looked at Madam Yu, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself.

"Don't be shy, this is nothing shameful." Mrs. Yu looked at her and said.

This is not a matter of being shy or not, Miss Jun felt like laughing.

How did things turn out like this?

But she certainly wouldn't refute Mrs. Yu.

"So you can rest assured, this Qingshan Army is not the army of the Great Zhou, nor is it the private soldiers of our Chengguo Mansion." Madam Yu said, "They are just tenants of our in-laws. When the country is in trouble, everyone has a responsibility, so they put down their hoes and come to help."

Return tenants.

Is this okay?

She had said before that she was a farmer, but she had just said it casually, and of course these people didn't believe it at all.

Miss Jun, please think carefully and think that it would be more credible if you reveal your identity as Jun Jiuling.

Just as she was about to speak, she saw the generals in the hall smiling.

"So she is the prince's daughter-in-law."

"You've already been engaged? We didn't even know about it."

“This is a great joy.”

"When is the wedding date?"

"Really? It's all the fault of that damn gold thief. We can't celebrate for the prince."

They talked one after another.

Even Tian Yao smiled and nodded at Miss Jun.

"So that's how it is." He said, not sparing the admiration in his eyes, "He is indeed as brave as the prince."

This is, believe it? Miss Jun was actually very surprised.

Could it be that they believed it because Madam Yu said so?

Miss Jun thought about it, then shyly stepped back behind Mrs. Yu.

"As the saying goes, fathers and sons fight together, but I never thought that a daughter-in-law could also fight in the battlefield." Tian Yao looked at Madam Yu and said with emotion, "It's true that people from the same family stick together."

"My daughter-in-law's family is also martial." Madam Yu nodded without denying and said, "Then this matter..."

Tian Yao bowed before Mrs. Yu finished speaking.

"Madam." He said solemnly, "Even farmers in the countryside can go out to fight against the gold thieves and protect the people of our Great Zhou. If we still sit quietly in this city, we will be ashamed to death."

Having said that, he turned around and looked at everyone in the hall.

"As Madam said, in the truce and peace talks with the Jin people, what we have to cede is the land of the three counties, not the hundreds of thousands of people of our Great Zhou. We are all brothers and sisters connected by flesh and blood. Now that our brothers and sisters are trapped, are we likely to watch them die without helping them?"

"No!" the generals in the hall shouted in unison.

"Are we likely to watch our compatriots being enslaved by the gold thieves?" Tian Yao raised his voice and shouted.

"No!" The generals also raised their voices and shouted.

Tian Yao turned and looked at Mrs. Yu.

"Ma'am," he said, extending his hand.

Madam Yu looked at everyone in the hall.

"Go, bring back our brothers, sisters, elders and fellow countrymen," she said, "Let the gold thieves know that although we have given up our land, we are not afraid of them. As long as the peace agreement is not signed, Bazhou will belong to our Great Zhou. We are on our own land and are not afraid of anyone who dares to stop and harm our people."

She raised her hand and waved.

"Kill without mercy!"

Kill, just waiting for this day, the anger that has been suppressed for a long time is burning fiercely.

All the generals in the hall raised their hands.

"Kill!" they roared in unison.

…

The rapid sound of drums and gongs resounded throughout Changfeng City. At the same time, teams of military officers headed out of the city, and the beacon fire on the city wall that summoned the troops from Hejian to gather was also lit.

Looking at the soldiers running on the street, Zhao Hanqing, who was standing outside the government office, pinched his nose through the face veil.

"These guys finally look like something," she said to herself. "Why are they so awesome all of a sudden?"

"...Then there is no doubt..."

"...It turns out that they are not private soldiers, but my daughter-in-law's family..."

"…This is truly a tradition…passed down from father to son…"

"…Duke Cheng married a bandit wife, so his son also wanted to marry a bandit wife…"

"…Don't say such harsh words, I am a farmer…"

"…Who would believe it…He is clearly a bandit…Although he has a large family, a large property and a house, he pretends to be a good citizen…"

Although Zhao Hanqing didn't understand, his eyes lit up when he heard the word "bandit".

"What bandits?" she asked.

The officials who came out were startled when they saw the girl suddenly appear.

Of course, I wasn’t scared by the masked face, but by the girl herself.

But they knew that this girl was very powerful, she could shoot an arrow through a target from a hundred paces away and kill people without blinking an eye.

"Nothing, nothing." The clerks waved their hands and shouted hastily, "We are talking about someone else."

After saying that, he ran away in a hurry.

"Where are the bandits?" Zhao Hanqing asked with a frown, "Tell us where they are and go and kill them. There's nothing to be afraid of about bandits."

…

Everyone in the official hall left, leaving only Madam Yu and Miss Jun.

Miss Jun looked at Mrs. Yu with a strange expression.

Madam Yu knew what was wrong with her. Anyone would be confused if they were suddenly said to be someone else's daughter-in-law.

What's more, she is still a young lady who has not yet married.

"I'm really sorry." Madam Yu said apologetically, "I had no choice just now. These people are too concerned about your identity and background. After thinking about it in a hurry, I thought this was the only way to solve this matter."

At this point he shook his head again.

"Of course you can say that you are a private army, but after all, nothing happens without reason in this world. It would be more convincing to say that you have a private reason instead of just saying it out loud."

Miss Jun looked at her without saying anything, and the expression on her face became more and more strange.

"Ms. Jun, please say whatever you want to say. I was wrong in this matter," said Mrs. Yu.

Miss Jun looked at her and pursed her lips.

"I mean," she said, "this is such a coincidence."
