......

The young literati was named Situ Ji. His is indeed a secret official.

The Situ family is a family that has been passed down for thousands of years. Everyone in the Situ family is familiar with military books, war strategies and governance strategies. Anyone who releases them can become an official or a great scholar. Situ Ji is even the best among the Situ family generation.

Situ Ji came to Guisuan Village to live in seclusion to prepare for his official career. Before Zhao Shi, several forces had already invited him to come out to assist. Some of the people who invited him were princes, some were senior generals in the Red-Headed Army, and some were heroes with ambition to compete for the world. However, the invitations from these people were politely rejected by Situ Ji. The reason was that Situ Ji felt that these people did not have the chance to win the world.

What Situ Ji never expected was that his ending would be to be kidnapped by an unknown little man as the so-called military advisor. What made him even more helpless was that his proud martial arts did not work at all.

Situ Ji tried to escape, but without exception, he was caught back by Zhao Shi.

Later, Zhao Shi forced Situ Ji to give him some good ideas. Out of helplessness, Situ Ji gave Zhao Shi a bad idea, asking Zhao Shi to lead his troops to attack the county town of Ping'an County. He told Zhao Shi: "Ping'an County is a large grain-producing county. As long as the general can conquer the county town of Ping'an County, he can immediately get countless money and grain. If the general can treat the people well, and then distribute grain and porridge to the people, he will definitely be loved by the people. Then the general will recruit thousands of soldiers from the kind people for training, and the general's strength will definitely increase greatly. Moreover, the general can also become famous in the Red Head Army and be appreciated by the Red King."

The strategy mentioned by Situ Ji is really fine. The problem is that the walls of Ping'an County are as high as four meters and extremely strong. In addition, there are two thousand elite soldiers in the city to defend. From Situ Ji's perspective, Zhao Shi, a group of farmers, could not have been able to fight the county town of Ping'an County.

Zhao Shi, who was originally a villager, didn't understand these things at all. He only heard the benefits Situ Ji mentioned, and never thought about whether he could be defeated. He left Wujia Village to make a name for himself. If he could build Ping'an County, Zhao Shi would make his name for himself. Then he could go back to Wujia Village to marry Cui Fangfang. The more he thought about these benefits, the more excited Zhao Shi was!

After his blood was boiling, Zhao Shi asked Situ Ji: "So how should I capture the county town of Ping'an County?"

Situ Ji listened to the words and said: "The general can change into the clothes of ordinary people, enter the city alone, and then take the opportunity to seize the city gate, and then order the troops to rush into the county town from the city gate. Finally, the general leads the soldiers to defeat the defenders of Ping'an City, and the county town of Ping'an County will be returned to the general."

Situ Ji and Zou Wan himself felt that Zhao Shi would not use his trick with loopholes. At that time, he would be marginalized, and then he would find another opportunity to escape from Zhao Shi's devil's claws.

What Situ Ji did not expect was that Zhao Shi, who was eager to go out, adopted his plan without hesitation and began to implement it without stopping.

There were also many knowledgeable people in Zhao Shi's team. They asked Zhao Shi to give up this plan, but those people scolded Zhao Shi, who was eager to go out of the way.

When those people saw Zhao Shi seeking death himself, they treated their kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs, so they stopped talking. At the same time, they thought hatefully in their hearts: "I see how you died!"

Seeing that Zhao Shi was so ignorant, Situ Ji helped Zhao Shi arrange an attack strategy seriously. He said to Zhao Shi: "As long as the general seizes the city gate, I will let the general's cavalry support the general, and then the general's infantry..."

Everyone in Zhao Shi's team thought that Zhao Shi was dead, and a few ambitious guys were ready to move. They had decided that as soon as Zhao Shi died, they would rob the command of the team. By that time, they would be out of the way.

But what made everyone, including Situ Ji, stunned that Zhao Shi, alone, really took down the gate of Ping'an County! More than 100 guards guarding the gate were killed by Zhao Shi, and the remaining more than 200 guards retreated far away from the gate, for fear that Zhao Shi, the killing star, would come to them.

Situ Ji was in the process of writing and immediately said to Zhao Shi's subordinates: "Go and support the general!"

Zhao Shi's courage shocked those guys with dissenting intentions. How could they not support Zhao Shi at this time?

What happened next made Situ Ji feel that he was dreaming. Zhao Shi and his more than 300 farmers first dispersed the army guarding the city gate, and then fought with the thousand defenders who came. Under the leadership of the invincible Zhao Shi, the three hundred farmers actually defeated a thousand elite soldiers.

Seeing this, the county magistrate of Ping'an County immediately gathered the remaining soldiers and let the remaining soldiers protect his family and escape from the county town of Ping'an County.

At this point, the county town of Ping'an County has changed its surname to Zhao.

After capturing the county town of Ping'an County, Zhao Shi called Situ Ji, the first hero who broke the city, to the side, and then asked Situ Ji for advice.

Situ Ji briefly talked to Zhao Shi about how to manage a county town, how to support the people, how to develop, etc.

Before Situ Ji finished speaking, Zhao Shi was as big as a fight. He waved his hand and handed over all the pool to Situ Ji. At the same time, he also handed over the command of his 300 people to Situ Ji. Then he moved into the county magistrate's home alone and handed over official duties with his two daughters who had not had time to take away.

Situ Ji never expected that things would come to this point. After thinking about it, he felt that this might be the will of heaven. God asked him to assist a wise master who had a huge amount of force but didn't care about anything.

Situ Ji decided to give Zhao Shi a try. If Zhao Shi really supports him with all his strength, he would grit his teeth and assist Zhao Shi. Otherwise, he would take this opportunity to escape.

Zhao Shi's team was composed of some messy people, so the military discipline was naturally not to be mentioned. In addition, Zhao Shi was a good example. So after conquering Ping'an County, these soldiers burned, killed, looted and did everything.

Situ Ji brought more than 50 soldiers with the most corrupt military discipline to Zhao Shi and said to Zhao Shi: "If the general wants me to be responsible for all matters in Ping'an County, these soldiers who burned, killed, looted, must be executed. Otherwise, I will not be able to give the general any promises, and the general will always be a small person."

Situ Ji's last words were too lethal to Zhao Shi, who was determined to be out of the way, so Zhao Shi killed more than fifty soldiers without hesitation.

Situ Ji said to Zhao Shi again: "The remaining soldiers helped the general to attack the county town of Ping'an County and made great contributions! The general should reward them with great reward."

When Zhao Shi heard this, he asked someone to go to the county magistrate's residence to find his newly collected concubines (the two daughters of the county magistrate) to ask for two boxes of gold and silver, and then said to Situ Ji: "How to reward them depends on the military advisor. When they went to reward them, the rest would all be returned to the military advisor."

Zhao Shi's attitude made Situ Ji very satisfied. From this moment on, he decided to assist Zhao Shi with all his strength.

Situ Ji is a talented person. Not to mention a safe county, even a country can be easily governed.

Situ Ji first asked someone to carry out the bodies of the soldiers who harassed the people and handed them over to the people of Ping'an County. Then he organized the officials of Ping'an County to open warehouses and release grain, and then let those officials with good reputations govern Ping'an County.

On the other hand, Situ Ji began to recruit soldiers in Ping'an County. The conditions he offered were extremely superior, and Zhao Shi's group of people had a good reputation in Ping'an County. Therefore, all the poor people signed up enthusiastically.

Situ Ji wanted to recruit elite soldiers. Seeing that there were so many people signing up, his requirements for the soldiers he recruited increased a lot.

The first batch of soldiers recruited by Situ Ji were 3,000. He did not let Zhao Shi's subordinates lead these 3,000 men be trained by him, but he personally selected outstanding people from them to take charge of the generals.

There were enough weapons and supplies in the county town of Ping'an County. Situ Ji chose the best weapons to give these 3,000 people. In just three days, these new recruits were stronger than those strong subordinates. Then Situ Ji began to attack Zhao Shi's subordinates, and those outstanding ones were promoted to the new army as generals, while those who were not good were sent away by each of him with a bunch of gold and silver.

In this way, the soldiers under Zhao Shi were no longer a group of mobs. Zhao Shi took a look at him in his busy schedule. He gave a high affirmation of Situ Ji's approach and said to the generals: "All the military advisor's actions are based on my instructions. You must listen to the orders of the military advisor. If you don't listen, the military advisor can deal with you first and then report it to me!"

Not long after these more than 3,000 people were formed, the county magistrate of Ping'an County attracted 5,000 elite soldiers and wanted to retake the county town of Ping'an County. However, they were defeated by the brave Zhao Shi and more than 3,000 new recruits.

Seeing this, Situ Ji immediately recruited five thousand elite soldiers, and then promoted the meritorious generals to serve as generals among the new recruits.

Zhao Shi and Situ Ji stayed in the county town of Ping'an County for three months. In these three months, except for the three generals who led the soldiers to repel the three encirclements of the official army, Zhao Shi spent all his time on several newly collected concubines. However, Situ Ji expanded his army while Zhao Shi was in a state of desolation and managed the county town of Ping'an County.

Three months later, Zhao Shi had already had 15,000 elite soldiers. Just then, the envoy of the Red King came. The envoy brought the appointment of the Red King and ordered Zhao Shi to be the General of Pingnan and ordered Zhao Shi to lead the general to advance south.

The purpose of Situ Ji's training of Zhao Shi was not to let Zhao Shi guard the county town of Ping'an County. He wanted Zhao Shi to use these elite troops to seize the world. So after seeing the order of the Red King, he said to Zhao Shi: "Lord, if we stay in Ping'an County, there is no development, it is time to occupy more territory."

Zhao Shixin knew Situ Ji's talent. He knew clearly that without Situ Ji, he would not be as glamorous as he was now, so he followed Situ Jiyan. In addition, Wujia Village is also in the south, Zhao Shi wanted to go back to Wujia Village to show off his glamorousness as he was now, and brought Cui Fangfang back by the way. So Zhao Shi agreed to Situ Ji's suggestions without hesitation.

Situ Ji handed over the county town of Ping'an County to his students, the middle-aged literati, and left behind five thousand elite soldiers and two brave generals to guard the county town of Ping'an County, and then went to war with Zhao Shi.
