Chapter 35 Chief, You Were Born to Be a Constable

After a day of marching, the army finally arrived at the foot of Black Wind Mountain and set up camp. The sky was already completely dark.

After hurriedly arranging for the night patrols, most of the soldiers had already fallen asleep.

In the commander-in-chief’s tent, the candles were still lit.

“Brother Chen, Bailiff Wang, I was at the front of the group today. I only heard you two arguing with Military Governor Zhao. What happened?”

Xiahou Yong asked the two of them.

“Commander Xiahou, mentioning Zhao Dengming makes me angry. He even brought a birdcage with him to the battlefield. There was even a pigeon in the cage. He said that he wanted to report the situation to the county magistrate at any time, but I feel that he might be sending a message to someone else.”

Wang Shan was hot-tempered. He immediately stood up when the matter was brought up and told Xiahou Yong about the incident that happened today.

After Xiahou Yong heard it, Chen Zhiyuan asked him, “Brother Xiahou, you are from the army, so you should have some understanding when it comes to inspecting the army. Does he need to report the battle to the rear at any time?”

“When there are objections during the task of inspecting the army, it will indeed be reported to the higher-ups. If the inspector has the permission of the higher-ups, they can even directly change the commander-in-chief’s order. However, that would need to be reported in an official document. Using pigeons is indeed a little illogical…”

Xiahou Yong thought for a long time before he finally voiced his thoughts.

On the main seat, Chen Zhiyuan also raised his head to look at Wang Shan. “Old Wang, since we don’t know what this bastard Zhao Dengming is up to, let’s keep a close eye on him. You will do this personally as I won’t be at ease with others. Choose two smart and reliable people to keep an eye on Zhao Dengming and see which direction the pigeons fly to.”

“Alright, don’t worry, Chief. I guarantee that I’ll scout out any mosquitoes that fly past him, male or female. With me keeping an eye on this old fellow, he definitely won’t be able to ruin anything.’

Wang Shan smiled and strode out of the tent.

Keeping an eye on people was the old profession of a bailiff.

Inside the tent, Chen Zhiyuan said to Xiahou Yong again, “Brother Xiahou, it’s our turn next. Let’s divide the work and cooperate. You’ll be in charge of training the troops. It’s best if you can train 50 qualified cavalry for me. Leave the rest to me. What do you think?”

“Alright, Brother Chen, since you’re already prepared, I will continue to be in charge of training the soldiers. I am originally assisting you in suppressing the bandits. Naturally, I am happy to be free.”

Xiahou Yong did not have any objections.

Originally, Chen Zhiyuan was the commander-in-chief of the army. He was afraid that if he said too much, it would be considered usurping the host.

In addition, he also wanted to see this sworn brother, who had the help of an immortal, and his ability in fighting. If there were any mistakes, it would not be too late for him to remind him.

After settling down, the local soldiers continued their training.

Chen Zhiyuan brought two trusted bailiffs with him every day and walked around the foot of Black Wind Mountain in disguise.

“Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining (100 corn varieties]!”

“Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining (Two Time Acceleration Cards]!”

Today’s sign-in reward made Chen Zhiyuan even happier. After potatoes, he also received corn, another drought-resistant, and high-yielding grain seed.

It was not an exaggeration to say that with these two things, in the future years of famine, the people would not be able to go hungry.

He quickly used the accelerator card and harvested another batch of grain and fruits.

Chen Zhiyuan then set off with his men.

The place he was going to today was the road at the foot of Black Wind Mountain. It was a road that he had already been to once.

After walking five miles along the road, it was three miles more than the last time he came. The two bailiffs behind him could not hold it in any longer. One urged the other to go forward.

“Chief, we’re already quite far from the camp. If the mountain bandits really come down, we won’t be able to call for reinforcements in time.”

A bailiff approached Chen Zhiyuan and whispered.

“Don’t panic. On this road today, not only will we not encounter the mountain bandits, we might even encounter a few caravans.”

Chen Zhiyuan turned his head and said to the bailiff behind him with great interest.

“Chief, that can’t be. There are bandits on this mountain…”

The other bailiff took a few steps forward and looked up at the mountain.

“Hey. You guys. Just because you’re worried about encountering bandits, you lose your sense of smell as bailiffs. Don’t worry and listen to me. If we really encounter bandits, just run. I’ll cover your back.”

Chen Zhiyuan was full of confidence and walked forward again.

When the two bailiffs heard this, they scratched their heads and didn’t have the mood to persuade him anymore.

The chief had already said so. If they wanted to continue working, even if they had to bite the bullet, they had to go. What puzzled them was that they had already come this way once, and this time was no different.

But now, they could only continue to follow Chen Zhiyuan forward.

After another mile or so, three mule carts appeared in front of the three of them. It was filled with full loads of goods, and they were moving forward with difficulty.

“Chief, you’re really a God. We really encountered a merchant.”

The two bailiffs came forward in shock and complimented him.

“As long as you look carefully at the road, you’ll know that we won’t encounter any danger today. You guys just stay here and watch. I’ll go up and scout for information.”

Chen Zhiyuan turned around and said this before walking straight toward the caravan.

The two bailiffs looked at each other and lowered their heads to observe the road.

“Did you find anything?”

After a long while, one of the bailiffs raised his head and asked.

“These few ruts? Although the marks are very light, if you look carefully, you can still see a little bit. The width is also different, but what does this mean…”

Another bailiff pointed at the light patterns on the ground that were different in width and became puzzled.

“Just now, the chief specifically said that we won’t encounter any danger this time, which means that we might encounter danger the previous time… Old Sun, think carefully. Did we see any ruts last time when we took this

road?”

“I didn’t notice it. It should be that there aren’t any. Otherwise, the chief wouldn’t have said so.”

“Aiya, as expected, we are the ones who are always on the edge of our wits. We even lost our brains. Think about it, why weren’t there any ruts last time? This time, there are more. Who is the most well-informed in this world? It’s the merchants!”

The bailiff who first raised his head slapped his thigh and finally remembered.

“You mean… these merchants knew that there wouldn’t be any bandits coming down the mountain these few days, so they made use of this time to pass?”

The other bailiff finally remembered.

“Let’s follow the chief and ask that group of merchants!”

“That’s right!”

The two of them discussed and were overjoyed to go forward.

“There’s no need to ask. I’ve already asked. That’s it. The bandits on the mountain will come down the mountain once every ten days. This time, when they heard that we were here, the frequency of them coming down the mountain decreased. The merchants also knew that we were here to suppress the bandits, so they started to pass again. Let’s go. That’s it for today. Let’s go back.”

Chen Zhiyuan, who had already returned, heard the last few words of the two men, and a smile finally appeared on his face.

“Yes, yes, Chief. Your observation is really meticulous. And now, we finally know what’s the difference between us and you. You’re practically born to be a constable.”

The two bailiffs quickly followed up with compliments.

Chen Zhiyuan didn’t reply. After asking the passing merchants just now, he already had some idea in his heart.

But when it came to being a constable, it really wasn’t suitable for him. The role of a constable was too small. Since he wanted to do it, he would do it big!
