Zhao Lin wiped out a group of rebel bandits who attempted to enter Qingzhou Prefecture and cause chaos, without causing any commotion.
Because there are only a few dozen heads.
Before, Zhao Lin would capture and kill tens of thousands of people at will.
More than twenty people are not worth reporting.
It's just a small number of people, but he reported it. It makes people laugh at Zhao Lin for risking everything just to save face.
Only two people broke through the defense.
One is Xiong Ying.
When he saw the familiar face, he knew that Xiong Hongzhe and Xiong Hongyi had been completely wiped out and their heads had been cut off as trophies. He didn't dare to show it in public and could only return to his house and curse.
The other one is naturally Zhao Chenhan.
"That bastard has done something great again."
Zhao Chenhan was furious and said to Zhou Shian, "It's just over twenty heads, but you think it's worth reporting to His Majesty? How shameless!"
Zhou Shi'an smiled and said, "If you don't report it to His Majesty, how will His Majesty know that he has made great contributions? So, you must learn this. No matter how big or small the contribution is, you must let His Majesty know. This will not only let His Majesty know that you are not idle, but also let His Majesty know that you are always thinking of him."
Zhao Chenhan suddenly understood and nodded repeatedly: "This is why listening to your words is better than reading for ten years. I was wondering why Zhao Lin told His Majesty everything. It turns out that this is it."
Zhou Shian said casually, "Didn't the teacher that Lord Zhao gave you teach you?"
Zhao Chenhan sneered, "He's only too happy to see me, so how could he teach me?"
Zhou Shian sighed: "So, the prince must prepare for the future. Have you met Rong Fei?"
Zhao Chenhan sighed and said, "Rong Fei is a concubine in the harem. I am just a small Hanlin. How can I see her easily?"
Zhou Shian pondered for a moment and said, "Why not ask Princess Yu to come forward?"
Zhao Chenhan was shocked and said, "How can I let my elder sister know this?"
Zhou Shian smiled and said, "Of course, we can't let her know. Rong Fei's birthday is in a few days, and Princess Yu will definitely send a gift. You can find an excuse to go with her. Once we get there, I won't need to teach you anymore, right?"
Zhao Chenhan was delighted: "It is a great honor for me to have you, sir!"
Zhou Shian smiled slightly and said, "When the prince ascends to a high position, just don't forget me."
"Don't worry, sir." Zhao Chenhan said, patting his chest.
Looking at the proud Zhao Chenhan, Zhou Shian smiled.
…
"My sons, you died tragically..."
The Xiong family of Shuozhou.
It was all gloomy and depressing.
We just lost Xiong Hui and Xiong Guang, and now two more have died.
They are still two people they are very optimistic about.
"What's going on?"
Xiong Boheng asked in a deep voice.
Xiong Ying, who had returned on some pretext, said, "Zhao Lin did it! He mobilized the Qingzhou army under the pretext of suppressing bandits, shot Hongzhe and Hongyi to death with arrows, and then cut off their heads to claim credit for it to Your Majesty."
puff!
Xiong Boheng spat out a mouthful of blood.
Xiong Hongyi is his grandson.
He is also the future successor whom he is very optimistic about.
And just died like that?
Xiong Boheng suddenly aged ten years.
"Zhao Lin, damn it!"
Xiong Boheng gritted his teeth.
"Dad, I want to avenge Hongyi and Hongzhe."
Xiong Chao, the eldest son of Xiong Boheng and the next patriarch of the Xiong family, shouted.
"Revenge must be avenged!"
Xiong Boheng took a deep breath, calmed himself, and said, "But we can't act too hastily. Zhao Lin is wary of us right now. If we send more people, he could easily shoot us in the name of suppressing bandits."
"What should we do then?" Xiong Chao asked anxiously.
Xiong Boheng said: "Find someone to help."
"Who is willing to help with this?" Xiong Chao was puzzled.
Xiong Boheng said coldly, "As long as the price is high enough, there will naturally be someone willing to do it. Recently, a new group of sand bandits appeared in the Golden Desert. They even dared to rob our goods. They are obviously a group of people who are not afraid of death. Hiring them, whether they kill Zhao Lin or are killed by Zhao Lin, will be a good thing for us."
Golden Desert.
This is a desert northwest of Daqi, and its area is as large as several provinces.
There are multiple forces in the desert, fighting each other endlessly, and with wanted criminals running from all over, the place is a mess.
Song Huaian was sitting in an oasis in the golden desert at this time.
It took Song Huaian a lot of effort to bring out the 50,000-strong army without alerting anyone.
Coupled with the strong wind and sand in the desert, he looked a little haggard at this time.
"Mr. Song, have a bowl of hot milk."
Duan Yongfeng attentively brought a bowl of hot goat milk.
Song Huaian felt nauseous after taking a look at it, and hurriedly said, "Take it away quickly."
"Haha, I didn't expect that the omnipotent Mr. Song couldn't drink hot goat milk."
Duan Yongfeng drank it all in one gulp, threw the bowl aside, and said, "What are you thinking about, sir?"
Song Huaian sighed and said, "Where will the food and grass for the 50,000-strong army come from?"
Duan Yongfeng sat in front of Song Huaian and said, "Why did you bring us here for no reason, sir?"
"What for? Of course it's for training. There's no war for us in Jiujiang." Song Huaian answered with a cold face.
"But there is nothing here. We can only pretend to be bandits and go out to rob every day. We have to pick our targets and only rob the Xiong family. It's so troublesome. It's better to go to the north and fight the Beidi." Duan Yongfeng said.
Song Huaian snorted: "Don't think that it's a big deal to eliminate a few bandits. It's good enough if 20,000 of the 50,000 troops in the north survive."
Duan Yongfeng was shocked. "That's not the case, is it? Are the Northern Di really that strong?"
Song Huaian sighed, "You haven't seen it, but I've seen it with my own eyes. When the Northern Di came south and fought against the Zhenbei Army, the military equipment of both sides was definitely not comparable to ours. If we really fought, one to one would be a draw, and ten to ten we would be slightly inferior. When the number of people increased to hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands, we would be defeated without a doubt."
