The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 1022

[Chapter 1022: Prepare to meet the enemy!]

The prefect of Jinzhou thought for a long time, and finally gave out a helpless sigh.

There were many things he couldn’t change.

Now that the adult has made a decision, he doesn’t expect that adult to take action anymore. All he can do now is do his best.

Thinking of this, his eyes narrowed slightly, he looked at Zhou Chen, and ordered: “Gather the government agents and your officers and soldiers, open the weapons arsenal, armor and weapons for you to take. This time, if you can Defeat those garrison troops, and I will write a letter to the court to record your achievements!”

Zhou Chen was slightly moved when he heard this.

According to the prefect’s wishes, he wants to fight hard with those stationed soldiers.

This is not something that can be said in a few words, but there is a price to pay.

Let’s not talk about whether they can stop the troops, but they, the prefect, will definitely be impeached by the censors.

When the world is prosperous, why is there still rebellion in your Jinzhou Prefecture?

Isn’t this the most ridiculous thing in the world?

In the end, let alone whether the position of prefect can be kept, if His Majesty the Emperor is unhappy, it is not impossible to dismiss him directly.

“Sir, do you want to think about it again? Those stationed troops are insignificant little people. There is no need for them to affect your future, sir. It’s really not possible.” When

Zhou Chen said this, he paused and did not continue, but What he meant could not be clearer.

If it really doesn’t work, just let those guys go. You won’t lose anything.

But the prefect of Jinzhou shook his head, with a firm look on his face: “I have been an official for decades and have never made any compromises with the gangsters. Pardoning the death penalty for the garrison soldiers is based on the law, and more importantly There is a precedent, but acquittal has never happened. Although I sympathize with the garrison troops, the family has family rules, the state has national laws, and the law is the bottom line.

Those garrison troops want to use force to violate the prohibition

!

, That’s a wrong idea. Even if I want to become an official, I will never let them succeed!”

“” Zhou Chen didn’t know what to say when he heard this.

On one side are a few insignificant small soldiers, and on the other side is the position of the prefect.

Which one is more important, how to choose, normal people know what choice to make.

But it’s a pity that their prefect chose the former

.

Zhou Chen sighed heavily and did not try to persuade him again. He looked at the magistrate, stood upright, bowed respectfully, and said, “I accept my order from my humble position!”

“Go.” Jinzhou magistrate said. waved his hand.

“I resign from my humble position!”

Zhou Chen saluted again, turned around and left.

The prefect of Jinzhou stood willingly, watching his back gradually disappear from his sight, with a complicated look on his face.

Sometimes, if you want to stick to your bottom line, you have to pay a corresponding price. There is no way around it.

He believed that he had been an official for decades and had never done anything against his will, including pardoning the death penalty of those stationed soldiers, which was also based on the law. This time, no matter what, he would not compromise with those stationed soldiers!

The prefect of Jinzhou took a breath, sat down at the table, and began to write a letter to His Majesty

on the other side.

Zhou Chen left the government office and rushed straight to the city gate.

Because most of the guards were transferred to Jinzhou Guards, he, the city guard, was automatically demoted to a small captain.

At this moment, when he came to the city gate, he said loudly: “Where are the people! Get out of here!”

After the words fell, there was no movement for a long time.

I don’t know how long it took before a few guys came this way while putting light armor on their bodies.

“Head, boss”

dozens of people stood in a row, with all kinds of postures, but no one was standing upright.

Zhou Chen looked at them, his brows furrowed tightly, and at the same time he felt even more worried.

No one knows the people under him better than he does.

These guys, not to mention stationing troops, even bandits may not be able to defeat them.

There is no way around this. Jinzhou Prefecture is an island-like state capital. Unless they attack from the sea, if other forces want to capture Jinzhou Prefecture, they must capture Kyoto Prefecture.

And Kyoto Prefecture has been captured, and there is no point in defending Jinzhou Prefecture.

Therefore, since ancient times, this land has been an indisputable place for military strategists. Since it is not contested, naturally no one will pay attention to city defense.

Not to mention these little pawns waiting to die, even he himself never paid attention to city defense in normal times.

Therefore, he did not criticize these guys harshly.

But it’s different now.

He frowned, stared at these useless guys, and cursed: “You bitches, are you of any use? It takes so long to wear light armor, so what’s the use of you?

I’m afraid that everyone will We’ve been beaten, but you’re still sleeping under the covers!”

The guards lowered their heads and didn’t say a word, letting you scold them.

Obviously, they don’t care at all.

When Zhou Chen saw their scene, he was even more furious. He drew out his sword and cursed: “Why are there only so few people, where are the rest?”

Dozens of people looked at each other, hesitated for a while, and someone said : “Liu San went home, Zhang Si went to the restaurant, and”

counting carefully, there were actually hundreds of people who were not there.

There are actually fewer people present than absent. This is simply an anecdote for the ages, an anecdote for the ages!

Zhou Chen felt his face burning with pain.

These people are now like this, not only because of themselves, but also partly because of himself.

He took a deep breath, tried to calm down his emotions, looked at these guys, and said in a cold voice: “The enemy is currently here, everyone is here.” Clean up for me and bring back those who are not here. The rest of you

will follow me to the weapons depot to get armor and weapons!”

“Ah?” Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

Someone said loudly: “The enemy is facing us? What kind of enemy is facing us? Sir, why do you suddenly want to take armor and weapons?”

When Zhou Chen heard this, he couldn’t bear it anymore. He stepped forward and kicked the man to the ground, cursing. : “I asked you to come over a long time ago and tell me that those bastard soldiers are coming to besiege the city. Didn’t you hear?”

The man was kicked to the ground and did not stand up. He said in despair: “Why are they coming to besiege the city? “Why did you come to besiege the city? I thought it was”

“What did you think it was?” Zhou Chen’s eyes were cold.

The man couldn’t continue talking.

Indeed, those garrison troops could not leave the garrison at all. What purpose could such a large-scale dispatch serve other than to besiege the city?

I was careless, so careless!

Zhou Chen was already numb and ignored him. He looked around and gritted his teeth and said, “Cheer up! It’s no use being afraid! Get ready to face the enemy!”
