After locating the rogue's hometown, Evan Zhao immediately ordered people to set off.
The village patrol officer had been promoted not long ago, and the post of village chief under him was not yet fully staffed. Evan Zhao accepted the county magistrate's suggestion and recruited soldiers with civilian titles, along with minor officials and strong servants, to temporarily put together a team of fifty people.
The purpose of this operation was not only to capture the villains, but also to inspect the army and select the captains from them.
The village patrol officer was thirty years old. His grandfather and father were both village chiefs. They had fought against the Xiongnu and beheaded them. He was brave and led the local militia to reinforce the fortress when the Xiongnu invaded last year. He beheaded two people. He was injured in the battle, but was awarded a title and land after the battle.
Evan Zhao read the book recording his military exploits and sent people to inquire about his reputation in the village. He knew that he was an iron-faced and impartial person. Even if his relatives broke the law, he would punish them according to the law, and no one's pleas would be of any use. During his tenure as the head of the pavilion, bandits disappeared from the villages under his jurisdiction.
