Li Xia pulled open the collar of the Zhang family prisoner, revealing a brand mark.
Hong Deyi took a candle and went over to take a look. Sure enough, it was the mark that the Mongolian army had branded on Xi's mouth after the Mongolian army wiped out the gold. Seeing that the mark on this man was shallow, it must have been more than ten years old.
"Haha, it's true."
Hong Deyi smiled, and when he stood up, he suddenly took off the rag that was in the mouth.
"Are you the driver of my brother Tuotuo?"
"Wow... wow wow..."
"Is this a mute?"
"Yes, he was screaming all day long, so I blocked his mouth." Li Xia responded, his tone already a bit impatient.
Hong Deyi smiled awkwardly, feeling that he was overthinking it, and followed Li Xia back to the lobby to drink.
As they exchanged cups and cups, the two of them chatted more and more animatedly...
"It's really frustrating. I said that this outpost has been searched. If the fugitive wants to hide, he must be hiding in Liuji. I have to search it again."
Li Xia put down the bowl and asked, "An Da never thought that the fugitive is really in this outpost?"
"where?"
"Me," Li Xia said, "I am a fugitive. We killed everyone here and pretended to be sentries."
Hong Deyi was stunned.
Then he burst out laughing.
“Funny!”
He laughed so hard that he couldn't hold the wine bowl in his hand. He quickly put his mouth to it and took a big sip. Then he laughed and said: "Brother Tuotuo is so funny. No wonder the Mongolian nobles like you. Haha, I have thought about your mouth.
I picked it up today, but I never thought you were pretending. Just like this...the door is open, the wine is drinking, and the meat is eating. Look at that, how drunk he is? Haha, can you be?
A fugitive?"
"Heh." Li Xia shook his head and swung his hair, looking very evil and wild.
Hong Deyi patted him on the shoulder and said: "You are not stupid, An Da. There is not a drop of blood here. Why do you want to 'kill everyone'? People can change and walk away out of thin air? Hehe, I am not stupid."
Li Xia sighed: "I just feel tired for An Da. I'm running around in the middle of the night."
"It's all like this, it's all like this, and it's all the people below who have worked hard." Hong Deyi said with emotion, "It's a pity, I was busy until the end, and the credit still belongs to others."
"How to say?"
"This group of fugitives will definitely not be able to escape. Qiao Dushi is a very capable man. He was able to persuade the Mongolian governor to bring a team of soldiers from Qianhu Station to search. The area has been surrounded. Catch them.
It's just a matter of time.
It's a pity that I couldn't go to Liu Ji to search. What do you think... How come Wu Tian is so lucky that he can follow Qiao Dushi to Liu Ji? Wait until he finds that group of people and makes this contribution, alas, I
There is no such fate."
Li Xia said: "Listen to what An Da means, this Qiao is doing something extraordinary?"
Hong Deyi lowered his voice and said, "Do you know why I, a centurion, would listen to him?"
"Why?"
"I heard someone say that Qiao Dushi... might become the Zhang family's son-in-law."
"ha?"
"Although this matter has not been decided yet, someone told me that the Zhang family wanted to recruit him as their son-in-law, so I paid attention and found that Qiao Dushi was a great person. If nothing else, just look at him and the governor of Qianhu Office.
When the official talks, the Mongolian language, jirigulu, jirigulu, is amazing!"
Li Xia turned around and took another jar of wine.
He and Nie Zhongyou looked at each other, with deep fear in their eyes.
When he turned around again, Li Xia's natural smile had returned to his face and asked: "An Da, do you think Qiao Dushi speaks Mongolian better, or do I speak it better?"
"Brother, tell the truth, Tuotuo, don't be angry." Hong Deyi waved his hand and said: "Although I don't understand, I have never eaten pork and I have seen pigs running... When you speak Mongolian, you are not as good as Qiao Du
It’s not as good as anything.”
"I really want to meet Qiao Dushi."
"Soon." Hong Deyi said, "Soon, after he finishes searching Liu Ji, he will come over here. Hey, he is very meticulous in his work, as fine as embroidery. He asked us to control these places first.
, he wants to search them one by one personally."
"Yeah?"
"What did he say? He said that even if someone is found in Liuji, there may not be people who can escape the trap elsewhere. It is entirely possible for the fugitives to escape separately. So, even if it is just one..."
Hong Deyi raised a finger and said: "Even if it's just a suspicious person, we have to pay attention. Brother, I just turned back to look at your expulsion. Tutuo, don't blame brother, really."
From calling himself "An Da" to "brother", Hong Deyi seems to be a little tipsy.
Li Xia took a sip of wine and said slowly: "Qiao Du is really meticulous in everything he does."
He swallowed the sip of wine slowly and scanned the outpost with his eyes.
In Li Xia's eyes, there are too many flaws here.
Broken Mongolian, extra horses in the stables, ill-fitting clothes, and the blood of some slightly injured people has overflowed...
Hong Deyi really can't see these things. How can a person live so stupidly?
But, that Qiao Dushi can definitely see it, absolutely...
~~
Liu Ji.
"The fugitive is at the Xizui Outpost." Qiao Ju said suddenly.
"Everything is happening, how can you see it?"
At this time, Qiao Ju was in a wine shop in Liu Ji. When he came in to search, the owner of the wine shop was counting money. Qiao Ju picked up the top two strings of copper coins, looked at them carefully, asked a few more questions, and immediately made a judgment.
"Copper coins, these are the copper coins of the Song Dynasty people in the south." Qiao Ju said.
Centurion Wu Tian was stunned and said: "But this is not Song money."
"Yes, the copper used in Song Dynasty money is of poor quality and light weight." Qiao Ju said, "This is the money imitated by Song people, and these two large bunches were used to buy wine at Xizui Outpost today, which shows that today's batch of
The Song people bribed the sentries..."
While he was talking, he had already walked out of the liquor store.
"At that time, they were raided by Liao Sheng. They were in a panic and were unfamiliar with the terrain. If they wanted to hide, they would have to hide at the outposts passing by on the road. At the same time, it was also to silence them and prevent us from finding out where they were going. These people were
Ruthless and decisive.”
Qiao Ju had made a decision, but was not in a hurry. After getting on his horse, he gave the order again.
"These thieves are cunning. Don't let anyone lose your guard. The encirclement must not be dispersed. Centurion Wu, please take someone with me to the outpost to capture them."
"yes……"
In the dark of night, Qiao Ju rode his horse calmly and calmly.
He went over the whole thing carefully and murmured at the end.
"Gao Changshou? Is he so powerful? Interesting."
Qiao Ju rushed to the outpost just as the night was at its darkest but dawn was about to break.
I saw that the door of the outpost was closed, the fire was bright inside, and the sound of someone drinking and punching could be heard.
Qiao Ju was not in a hurry to rush in, but first ordered the outpost to be surrounded.
When he was ready, he waved his hand.
"Do it!"
"Bang."
Several soldiers kicked open the door.
I saw that in the lobby, there were indeed more than ten people still drinking.
Qiao Ju narrowed his eyes and whispered to himself: "I found you..."
At the same time, Wu Tian had already rushed forward with his soldiers.
