Chapter 38 Decision making
☆Free novel reading [ ]
"...Tongbai Mountain stretches for three hundred miles. Although it is not as majestic as Luliang Mountain on Hedong Road, it is still more dangerous, higher and larger than Guanlui Mountain at our feet. Pan Huzi is also considered the number one ruthless person in Tongbai Mountain.
, don’t look at Pan Huzi
Now I am on good terms with you, but who in Tongbai Mountain will mention the name of his soul-stealing gun? What girl and daughter-in-law are not so frightened that they can't help but shiver? He pulled out more than 300 men with a heavy iron spear, occupying
If you live on the top of a mountain, you will be called the king, and you will be able to kill anyone.
In the right village of the village, men and women are screaming - why do women howl? One day you will take off Pan Huzi's pants and look at his second soul-stealing gun. Ordinarily, how could such a heroic figure be raped?
The imperial court wanted to recruit people, so they went to this place where birds don't shit.
Serving as a military envoy for you? It has to be said that his soul-stealing spear is strong, but it can't defeat Xu Huai, a bastard. He has been humiliated by Xu Huai again and again, and he has no shame anymore in Baitongbai.
If you become a bandit, what else can you do except surrender to the court?"
After Tang Qing left, Pan Chenghu and Guo Junpian still didn't want to start a conflict with Wang Zhen before they could gain a foothold. The two of them dilly-dallyed, and at dusk they brought with them a dozen soldiers who had been reluctantly selected from the veterans of the Xiang army.
When I rushed to the rock pile, I didn't expect Zheng Tu to be sitting on a pile of rocks, talking about the banditry in Tongbai Mountain with his eyebrows flying.
Not only were a large group of veterans from the Xiang Army surrounding him who were listening with great interest, but there were also many prisoners who had been transporting stones from the quarry and were standing there to rest.
The guards of the imperial army had already withdrawn. Zhu Xiaotong had not yet figured out Wang Zhen's intention and was holding back his breath. Even the jailer with a little glance knew that something was happening in the quarry.
Now as long as the prisoners don't make a fuss and escape, they all stand aside laughing and are not in a hurry to urge these prisoners to do their work.
When the soldiers and prisoners of the Xiang army saw Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu approaching, they were still afraid and hurriedly stepped aside.
It was a hot summer day, the sun was tilted to the west and it was still very hot. Xu Huai was shirtless, exposing his body as strong as a bear, with two bag knives stuck in his waist, sitting on a pile of rocks nearby, and
Play with the broken blade in your hand.
"Hey, Commander Guo, Commander Pan, you guys miss me so much!" When Zheng Tu saw Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu coming over, he patted his thighs and jumped off the pile of rocks, welcoming them enthusiastically and rubbing his hands in excitement.
He started to talk about the reason why he was in the Lanzhou stone farm at this time, "In Huaiyuan
We couldn't hang out together anymore, so we had to come to Lanzhou to join Wang Xianggong to find a job. We can be considered as ministers in the same palace. In the future, we will need Guo Junshi and Pan Junshi to take care of me! I was just talking nonsense, just for fun, I want to
Please forgive me for any slightness!"
Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu, no matter how shallow-sighted they were, could not be fooled by Zheng Tu's crude sugar-coated bullets. Besides, how could they think highly of this scoundrel who was born in a butcher shop?
They stopped their horses and glanced around coldly. Just as they were about to show off their authority as commanders and deputy commanders, Xu Huai glared over in displeasure, raised his brows and said, "What are you two looking at? Do you really think you are wearing a general?"
The robe can cover the thief's eyes and even look at the bird feathers!"
Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu thought that they would meet Xu Huai, the murderer, and they also did a lot of psychological preparation on the way. They thought about meeting this murderer eating horse dung on the roadside, so they went around and stepped on him. Why did they step on him? But they didn't want to.
There is really a face in this world that can make their chests boil with anger just by looking at it. Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu both felt that their beards and hair were standing on end at this moment.
"You fool, why are you so blind?" Zheng Tu picked up a stone and threw it at Xu Huai, scolding him, "In the past, I killed and killed, but I didn't get anything. Now, I have to rely on Guo Jun to envoy , Ambassador Pan, who are you going to show your bad temper to?"
After reprimanding Xu Huai, Zheng Tu again confronted Guo Jun with a smile on his face. Pan Chenghu apologized and said: "You didn't just learn Xu Huai's arrogant temper when he got his ambition today. Don't be like this bastard - I Today, I have taken refuge with Xianggong Wang and received a job. I am recruiting Guo Jun Envoy and Pan Jun Envoy here in this stone quarry to assist you in transporting stones out every day..."
With Zheng Tu being so pretentious, Guo Junpan, and Pan Chenghu would naturally not let down their guard easily.
However, as the saying goes, you can’t hit someone with a smiling face, and with Xu Huai, a brainless idiot, they couldn’t show their face to Zheng Tu. They just said coldly:
"Xianggong Wang asked Tang Qing to call us over to supervise the stone transportation. There are a lot of people here laughing and joking but not doing any real work. If the stones needed by Zhuzhai Village are not enough, they will file a lawsuit with the Supervisory Department of the Military and Horse Capital. We can Can't bear it..."
"That's right, that's right. When I got here, I was thinking about connecting with the Xiangjun brothers, and I almost missed my business!"
Zheng Tu patted his butt and walked towards the pile of rocks, shouting as he walked,
"Brothers, get down to business. It will still be dark for an hour. If we work harder, we can send a shipment of stones to Baiyan Village. It will be a bit late to rush back at night, but we brothers who came from Huaiyuan I have nothing to show my respect to you all, but I have sent people to Langu City to catch a few fat sheep, and I will ensure that my brothers will have a palm-sized piece of soy mutton in their bowls!"
The Xiang army also recruits soldiers, but nowadays there are no good men who are willing to serve as the Xiang army, and most of them are refugees, and they are all young and strong refugees who were left behind by the imperial army.
The Xiang army usually had to do various hard labor such as building cities and roads, and their small salary was often withheld. Their life was not much better than that of the poor people at the bottom, and their daily diet was only coarse grains.
Usually, only during major festivals can one be rewarded with a meat meal, which is only two finger-width slices of roast meat.
Zheng Tu was funny and approachable. As soon as they met, he would catch a few fat sheep and feed them to so many Xiang army generals as a greeting gift. The hands and feet of many soldiers suddenly became flexible, and they quickly loaded the stones into baskets and loaded them into the cart. There is no need for Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu to urge him like a fierce spirit.
No matter what Zheng Tu had in mind, Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu didn't want to pay attention to him. When they saw the soldiers in the prison camp, Cheng Yanqing stood far away and walked towards him.
They thought in their hearts that the imperial soldiers would be withdrawn from the quarry. Among the thousands of prisoners, there were also many extremely vicious people. The burden of supervising the quarry and the prison camp would all fall on the heads of the hundreds of soldiers in the prison camp. But I don’t know if Cheng Yanqing has been scolding his mother all afternoon.
Xu Huai chewed a poplar branch in his hand and glanced at Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu walking towards Cheng Yanqing.
Xu Huai could guess what they were thinking, but Cheng Yanqing, as an upright and upright military attache of the local Xiang army, might not think highly of Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu, who were both former thief generals.
At this time, the news of the alliance to conquer Yan gradually spread among the prefectures and counties, and the control in all aspects became stricter than before. Xu Huai was not worried that Cheng Yanqing, who had a foothold in Lanzhou, would take the initiative to interfere in the short term. Something extraordinary happened in this quagmire.
Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu came over in a show of force. The dozens of prisoners who were resting at the rock dump just now and were fascinated by what Zheng Tu said about the Tongbai bandits now hurriedly stepped aside for fear of bumping into Guo Jun.
Jun Fan and Pan Chenghu.
"These two shits have cried and begged for mercy many times under my gun. Is the River Carp King afraid of them?" Xu Huai shouted to a tall and thin man.
Pan Chenghu, Guo Junpan thought directly in his heart, go around this shit, don't step on it, it will dirty your feet.
Zheng Tu was not very skilled, but he had the skills that ordinary people could not match. After receiving the letter, he took two people from Kelan City to the quarry for backup. In less than an hour, they destroyed Hutou Village, Shixizhuang, Taibaiding, etc.
Xiema Mountain
, Laojuntan, Shuanglongzhai and other Tongbaishan bandit forces joined forces to stir up bandit chaos, but were killed by Xu Huai and his soldiers, and finally had to accept the ins and outs of the recruitment. The whole story was explained clearly and clearly.
Of course, in these stories, Zheng Tu today focused on exaggerating the martial prowess of Xu Huai, the confidant of the former Yushi Zhongcheng, and did not overly disparage Guo Junpan, Pan Chenghu and others.
The prisoners who were resting here could also hear it clearly. Seeing Xu Huai criticizing Guo Jun and Pan Chenghu opening his mouth to curse shit, they all believed that what Zheng Tu said was true.
However, they were dealt with not once or twice. How could they easily get involved in the grievances between Xu Huai, Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu?
No matter how you look at it, Xu Huai, the confidant of the prison warden Wang Zhen, and the chief and deputy commanders of the Caocheng Zhaixiang Army are not the prisoners who can offend the prisoners who died without anyone caring about them.
The tall and thin man just raised his head and glanced at Xu Huai, and then took a step back into the crowd, not wanting to cause trouble at all.
"Young master, these two hands can kill at least 80 thieves, if not a hundred. I didn't expect that they are not as good as these two shitty things, but they can still be used as commanders of the Xiang Army. I hate it in my heart. I might as well have been killed in the first place."
As a bandit. However, I heard that you river
King Li was also a good man in Xiansi on Jingdong East Road. He captured and killed as many as eighty traitors if not a hundred, but he did not want to go out to catch thieves. His beloved wife at home committed adultery with Shangfeng, and when he killed someone in anger, he ended up with a fate worse than mine.
But I feel at peace!"
How could Xu Huai let the beaver king Wang Kong go? He threw the broken knife to Xu Xin'an, jumped down from the stone quarry, pushed the prisoner away, walked straight to Wang Kong, and shouted,
"Look at these two shit-like things that can show off their power today, do you feel filled with hatred? Come on, come on, you have a competition with me, just be discouraged - I haven't found a decent opponent for a long time.
Come on, these two are the same piece of shit. It would be embarrassing for me to hit them with one hand..."
"This reckless guy will offend everyone sooner or later with his bad mouth!" Seeing Pan Chenghu, Jun Guo's veins twitched. Zheng Tu hurriedly came over to comfort them, "Envoy Guo, Envoy Pan, don't follow this guy either.
The reckless fool is planning to let him bring trouble on himself! I will send people to Langu City to buy, and I should be able to bring back a few jars of good wine. Let's make an appointment with the Chengdu general and have fun together at night?"
Chapter completed!
