Wei Hong rolled his eyelids again, wondering if this person was stupid.
"Make a comeback? Do I still have a chance?"
Wei Hong's words made Zhang Zhi's eyes sparkle.
"Listen to me, there are plenty of opportunities."
Wei Hong nodded solemnly.
"but."
"Stop being stubborn, none of us can escape if we keep dragging him on."
Wei Hong was anxious now, but Zhang Zhi was still hesitant.
"Okay, let's go."
Just do what he said, Zhang Zhi followed Wei Hong and left the battlefield, disappearing in front of everyone.
The battlefield is like this. It starts abruptly and ends abruptly. The evacuation of Zhang Zhi and Wei Hong became the last straw for the bandits. Even after the boss ran away, they still struggled to survive.
"I surrender."
"I surrender too,"
"I won't fight anymore."
One by one, the bandits threw away the steel knives in their hands and surrendered to the Yuan family's personal guards, who were far outnumbered by them.
"Boss, what should I do?"
A personal guard came to Yuan Chen's side and looked at the surrendered people on the ground, feeling troubled.
"Collect it first and then talk about it."
Yuan Chen was also scratching his head. After all, they only had 500 people, but there were at least 2,000 or 3,000 prisoners. Faced with such a base, what should they do?
"promise."
The five hundred cavalry dispersed, and in a short time more than 2,700 people were captured.
"Sir, let's settle the battle. Five thousand bandits killed more than 2,000 people and captured more than 2,700 people. The only drawback is that the bandit Zhang Zhi ran away."
Yuan Chen rode his horse back to Yuan Ji and reported the result of the battle to him.
"Okay, I, the warrior of the Yuan family, are the best in the world, hahahaha."
Yuan Ji stood up suddenly, his eyes full of excitement.
"Sir, do you know who came to rob us this time through Zhang Zhi?"
Yuan Chen looked at Yuan Ji with a mysterious face.
"Looking at you, he must be an acquaintance."
Looking at Yuan Chen's appearance, Yuan Ji instantly had a name in his mind.
"Hey, sir, it seems you have guessed it."
Yuan Chen chuckled and looked at Yuan Ji.
"Is it the Hedong Wei family's fault?"
Yuan Ji also said to Yuan Chen with a smile.
"The young master is a young master after all. I hit the nail on the head. Wei Hong of the Wei family brought 20,000 taels of gold and 40,000 taels of silver as reward. He asked Zhang Zhi to send troops to kill us and rob the mistress and her family."
Yuan Chen told Yuan Ji all the news he got from the prisoners.
"What a Wei family. I can even take over the Cai family's account and settle the general ledger with him."
A sharp light flashed in Yuan Ji's eyes. The Yuan family took advantage of this and could not bear the loss. The Wei family kept making troubles one after another. He couldn't hold his breath unless he returned the favor.
"Sir, my lord has said that it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. It is only a matter of time before he settles with the Wei family."
Yuan Chen nodded heavily. Revenge and reckoning will be a matter of time. Hedong Wei family, just wait.
"Well, I know all this."
Yuan Ji looked into the distance, that was the direction of Hedong, that was the direction of the Wei family.
"By the way, have you been to Dawangzhai?"
Yuan Ji suddenly remembered something.
"Yuan Bi has been sent over."
"That's good, let's pack up and wait for Yuan Bi to come back, then rush back to Jizhou at full speed."
"promise."
After almost an hour, Yuan Bi led two hundred cavalrymen and drove a dozen carts back to Yuan Ji.
"Young Master, I was lucky enough to live up to my fate. Not only were all the gold and silver given to Zhang Zhi by Wei Qi recovered, but I also seized one thousand taels of gold, twenty thousand taels of silver, and three million taels of money from Dawang Village."
Yuan Bi came to Yuan Ji's side to resume his life.
"Okay, since everyone is working so hard, I'll take the decision and share the one million dollars with everyone."
Yuan Ji glanced at Yuan Bi, gritted his teeth and decided to reward everyone with one million yuan.
"Sir, according to what the lord said, if a battle like this is reported to the state shepherd's office for statistics of military exploits, then all the seizures must be turned over. However, if the military exploits are not reported, we can divide the seizures into 20%."
Yuan Chen was a little embarrassed. Yuan Shu's original plan was to build a wolf-like army, but to ensure battlefield discipline and make the troops aggressive, Yuan Shu promulgated a special system.
The battlefield returns to the battlefield, and the seizures on the battlefield must be turned over. If the encounters like Yuan Chen's are against bandits, it will not be counted as military merit. They can get 20% of the gold and silver seized, but the remaining 80% must be put into the treasury.
, and if someone enriches his own pockets, he will be sent to a labor camp for reform at the least, or he will be executed at the worst.
"I understand. Since it is a highway system, then you must abide by it. Anyway, you paid for these gold and silver with your lives, and dividing it into 20% is nothing."
"Everyone, why don't you thank the eldest son quickly?"
Yuan Chen nodded, very happy.
"Thank you, eldest son."
"Thank you, eldest son."
"Thank you, eldest son."
Yuan's bodyguards all thanked him excitedly. After all, not only did they want this, they also needed Yuan Ji's consent.
For this seizure, the money taken by the Wei family and Dawangzhai's own continuation were divided into 20%, which is more than 4,000 taels of gold, 12,000 taels of silver, and two million yuan. This is definitely considered.
It was a big gain last time.
"Stop talking, the prisoners will be dispersed on the spot, and all the troops will head towards Jizhou."
A group of people happily pulled the trophies and rushed towards Jizhou to protect Yuan Ji and Cai Yong's family. After this attack, the road went smoothly. In seven or eight days, they arrived at Chenliu and came to Dongzhou.
On the edge of the county.
"Report, there is an unknown army ahead, numbering five thousand."
The convoy was moving forward, and the scouts rushed towards them at high speed.
"Everyone is on alert."
Yuan Chen gave an order, and all the Yuan family guards took off their crossbows, hung their arrows on their strings, and prepared for battle.
Looking at the approaching troops, Yuan Chen couldn't help but frown. These troops looked neat and tidy, but there was no perfect fit between them when they were running and stopping. They looked like elites at first glance.
"Is this Mr. Yuan, Mrs. Yuan's servant, in front of you?"
Under the huge banner of Cao Zi, a tall and powerful general rode out.
"I am Yuan Ji, may I ask who the general is?"
Yuan Ji got out of the carriage and stood at the driver's seat looking at the general.
"Your Majesty, Cao Ren, Cao Zixiao, is here to escort Yuan Taipu back to Jizhou on the orders of the Grand Administrator of Dongjun."
"Cao Cao of Dongjun?"
Yuan Ji was confused when he heard Cao Ren's words. Although he knew Cao Cao, he didn't have much friendship with him, so he was not qualified to send troops to escort him.
"That's right."
Cao Ren nodded.
"Sir, the person who came here is not a good person."
Yuan Chen looked at Cao Ren's men and was thinking about how to defeat them.
"I know, but Cao Mengde is not a villain. Besides, if he is different from the Hedong Wei family, Dongjun is adjacent to Jizhou, so he would not dare to mess around."
Yuan Ji's eyes were also full of doubts, but people had already come to the door, so it seemed a bit shameful to push him away.
"I still don't feel right. These five thousand people are different from bandits. They are real elites. If there is a change, I may not be able to resist it."
Yuan Chen still shook his head with concern.
"So you have to be smart and leave us alone if something happens and lead people to break out."
Face is very important in troubled times. Since Cao Cao has sent people, Yuan Ji will be next. If he is timid, he will not only lose his own face, but also the face of the Yuan family. The most important thing is that he will lose face.
It is still the face of Yuan Shu and Yuan Gongdao of Jizhou Mu and Youzhou Mu.
