Although when they were in the cellar, Chu Guo and Yang Jingyun had thought about whether the person who attacked them would be Tong Zhilang, and whether it would be Su Shi who they were following this time.
But this is just an idea. In their opinion, Su Shi would not have such ability. He was just a young man who had only been in Beijing for a short time, not to mention a person with leg problems.
But now, when they saw Su Shi appearing here, looking like the leader of the crowd, they knew that the person who attacked them was really Su Shi, the person they had always looked down upon.
Just when the two of them were in shock, Su Shi's voice came out again: "Today is a good day for dinner to thank everyone for their hard work during this time. I won't say much more, let's have a good meal and drink."
good."
"Okay! Long live the young master, long live the young master!"
As soon as Su Shi finished speaking, everyone in Shangcangshan shouted long live.
This word, which can only be used for emperors, is now shouted out by the common people, and it is so natural. No one seems to feel that it is wrong, and no one thinks that calling it like this is trespassing, illegal, or even
Is there any suspicion of rebellion?
"hiss!"
Chu Guo and Yang Jingyun had already turned pale when they heard such shouts.
Especially the latter. He is a member of the Secret Service and is very afraid of the imperial power. Now that he heard someone shouting "long live someone other than the emperor", the shock in his heart was like a stormy sea, which made him sit up for a moment.
They were all a little unsteady in their seats.
Yang Jingyun, who had already had the rope removed from his body, instinctively wanted to stand up immediately, and then rush to where Su Shi was, asking him, what on earth do you think, and why do you dare to do this?
But when he glanced at the brothers Longhu, Xiaobaige and a group of elite soldiers wearing stab-proof uniforms at the same table, he finally did not have the urge.
He knew very well that if he dared to stand up, he would be beaten severely, thrown back into the cellar, or even silenced directly.
A small leak will sink a great ship.
Suppressing the anger in his heart, Yang Jingyun sat without moving, but instead moved his chopsticks with the others towards the food on the table.
Having not eaten for a whole day, Yang Jingyun was indeed a little hungry. He decided to suppress all doubts and fill his stomach first. Only in this way could he have the energy to do some of the things he wanted to do.
Compared to Yang Jingyun's depressed mood, the people on Shangcang Mountain were all smiling and eating all the food in the sea.
Each of their faces was filled with happiness and joy, and they felt proud to have a leader like Su Shi. It was also the first time that they discovered that life could be so beautiful.
More than a thousand people in Shangcangshan were smiling and enjoying themselves, but not far away, more than a thousand prisoners were carefully eating the food on the table.
For the family members of these other bandits, Su Shi did not criticize them too much, and all the delicacies that should be served were served. The only difference was that they had some control over tobacco and alcohol.
Each person can only have one cigarette and one glass of wine. This is in sharp contrast to the unlimited consumption of the people in Shangcangshan.
Calling them here this time would certainly waste a lot of food, but in Su Shi's opinion, it was all worth it. He just wanted to take this opportunity to let these prisoners feel the atmosphere of Shangcang Mountain, which would be very important for the next step.
Coming down and convincing them to stay on the mountain for their own use will play a vital role.
Speaking of which, even these remaining prisoners have been carefully selected by Wang Ada and Ji Zhu. Those who really committed the most heinous crimes have been killed long ago, and those who are left behind are all old people with little strength in their hands.
, just women and children.
If people like this are thrown down the mountain, their lives will undoubtedly be very miserable. No one even knows how long they can survive. But if they are placed in Shangcang Mountain, once they surrender to Su Shi, there will be many more deaths in that day.
Contributing thousands of faith points is definitely worth the money.
In this way, under Su Shi's deliberate arrangement, the environment was subtly affecting these thousands of captives. Slowly, when they saw that no one spoke dirty words to them, and no one criticized them, these captives'
The mentality is also slowly changing.
Some prisoners who originally had sad expressions gradually began to have a hint of smile on their faces. Although it was very weak, it was a good start.
"Uncle Wang, they are all hard-working people. Let's talk to them later and let them join our big family." After Su Shi took a bite of food, he ordered Wang Ada beside him.
"Okay, young master, I will go and chat with them after the dinner." Wang Ada nodded, sighing at Su Shi's kindness in his heart, thinking that he was with the right person, otherwise the people of Wangzhuang behind the mountain would
How could we live such a good life now?
The meat was fragrant and the wine was fragrant. After the dinner, everyone became closer to each other. As Ji Zhu was the first to come to Su Shi's table to toast him, Su Shi was very considerate.
After having a drink, the others plucked up the courage to follow suit and came forward and began to toast Su Shi.
Fortunately, Su Shi had already made preparations and asked Lou Yang to replace the burning knife with boiled water. He did not refuse anyone who came and drank with everyone.
In fact, no one cares what Su Shi drinks. As long as the young master is willing to toast to them and give them face, they will be excited.
And this dinner also greatly shortened the distance between Su Shi and everyone, so that his core position could no longer be shaken.
No matter how good the banquet is, there is a time when the banquet ends. After more than an hour, the banquet finally ended. The women began to clear away the dishes and chopsticks. Ji Zhu and the soldiers also went to different posts. Even the prisoners were also at Wang Ada.
Under the leadership, we began to do one-on-one ideological persuasion work.
Only Chu Guo and Yang Jingyun were tied up again and brought back to the cellar.
As soon as they entered the cellar and they were alone, Chu Guo became a little excited and became a chatterbox. "Don't tell me, this burning knife is really strong. It's really powerful."
"By the way, I handed over a pack of cigarettes when I left. Would you like to smoke one?" Chu Guo saw that Yang Jingyun didn't seem to want to talk to him, so he took out a cigarette and handed it over.
Yang Jingyun was still worried, so he naturally didn't answer it, but Chu Guo didn't care either. Instead, he smiled at himself, took out a box of matches that came with him, lit a cigarette, and smoked alone.
stand up.
"This stuff is good, it relieves boredom and refreshes you. Haha, I have long heard that this thing appeared in Bianliang City, but only those nobles are qualified to enjoy it. I didn't expect that I can smoke it now even if I am Chu Guo. Haha, when a prisoner has this
This kind of treatment was something I couldn’t even imagine before.”
"I say the people here are really happy. They have enough food, meat, wine, and cigarettes. I'm afraid even the nobles in the capital won't be able to enjoy such treatment. This is straight
Lang is really capable."
"That's enough. Can't you see that Toshiro is rebelling and playing with fire?"
Hearing the words one by one, Yang Jingyun finally became dissatisfied, and he couldn't help but yell angrily.
"Rebellion? Haha, just with the old and weak women and children on this mountain, or with those two hundred warriors? The Song Dynasty is so big, what can they do? Huh?" Chu Guo saw Yang Jingyun scolding himself,
Naturally, he refused, so he immediately fought back.
"If these people could rebel, the world would have been in chaos." Chu Guo hummed, looking like you, Yang Jingyun, were making a fuss.
"You don't understand. Although they are few in number, have you seen the equipment they wear and the weapons they use? Even the imperial army cannot compare with them. Even the guards in the palace are probably not as good as this.
What will happen to people once they arrive on the battlefield?"
"Also, have you seen what they eat? It's all white flour, polished rice, and enough meat. If this continues, can they not have a good body? I'm afraid their treatment is unmatched by anyone in the entire Song Dynasty's army.
.”
"The most important thing is that their leader turned out to be Tong Naorou, a person who was so valued when he first arrived in the capital. He was only fourteen years old, but his maturity was far beyond his age. Anyone
Anyone who underestimates his age is destined to fall into trouble, just like you and me..."
Yang Jingyun did not continue. In the final analysis, wasn't it because he underestimated Su Shi and was lurking too close to him that he fell into the trap?
Even he, the number one lurker and tracking expert of the Secret Service, fell into Su Shi's hands so easily, and he still doesn't know why. Whoever dares to underestimate him will definitely suffer a big loss.
Losing money.
"So what?" Chu Guo didn't care whether Yang Jingyun was feeling a storm in his heart. He only knew that he was still alive and was being fed with good food and drink.
If the other party wants to kill himself, why waste that food?
Since he doesn't want to kill himself, then there is nothing to worry about. He is just a member of the Jianghu. He once had the experience of serving in the army, but now he is an ordinary citizen. As long as his life is still there, he has nothing to lose.
As for whether Su Shi would rebel and what his motives were in supporting these people, what was his business?
After all, Chu Guo was just an ordinary citizen, and his thoughts were not as far-term as Yang Jingyun's.
When Yang Jingyun heard the words "so what", he knew that all his previous words were in vain. Thinking that the identities of the two parties were not equal, the angle of thinking about things would naturally be different. Then what he was worried about,
It may not be what the other party is worried about, so they simply won’t talk.
Different road non-phase plan.
If you don't have the strength to speak, it's better to take a good rest and think about how to welcome what may happen next.
