Shen Yaozu didn't say a word from beginning to end. When he walked past Su Jin, he didn't look sideways and looked extremely arrogant.
"Stop." Su Jin said.
The escorting soldiers stopped and pulled Shen Yaozu's body to face Su Jin.
"Master Shen, could you have imagined today?" Su Jin said with a smile.
"Bah! If there hadn't been a traitor, what could you have done to me?" Shen Yaozu gritted his teeth.
Su Jin nodded and said: "That's true. If it weren't for Qiu Dabao's help, it would be difficult for me to use my plan. This is God's will. If you do too much injustice, you will lose your moral integrity. You have also read the books of sages, so you should understand what I am talking about. mean."
Shen Yaozu bared his teeth and sneered: "Win the king and lose the bandits, what else can I say? If I fall into your hands, I will kill or chop you to death. Over the past few years, I have enjoyed enough of the mountains and forests, wine, meat, beauties, and gold and silver treasures." "
Su Jin smiled and said: "I won't kill you. You didn't kill me right away on the mountain. I miss you too, so I will treat you with courtesy and escort you to Beijing. As for your Your crime will naturally be punished by the court's laws, and I won't lay a finger on you."
Shen Yaozu looked up to the sky and smiled: "You hypocrite, what's the difference between this and killing me? It makes you appear to be sentimental and righteous."
Su Jin said coldly: "What you did should have caused you to be cut into pieces. Do you still feel aggrieved? Do you know where your biggest mistake is?"
Shen Yaozu said: "The mistake is that I didn't kill you with one sword."
Su Jin chuckled and said: "It seems you still don't understand. Your fault is that you provoked me! Do you know? This food is my food. Originally, you were your bandit. I did my job. Let's get into the water." No offense, but your mistake is to blame me. Anyone who wants to get involved in my Su Jin's things must discuss it with me, but you are so smart that you think no one can cure you, and take advantage of you. From the day you caught my grain cart, your fate today was destined."
Shen Yaozu pursed his lips and said nothing, looking at the sky without answering.
Su Jin shouted: "Take him down, take good care of him, let him eat and drink well, and escort him to Beijing early tomorrow morning together with the communique."
The soldiers pushed and pushed Shen Yaozu away. Pan Jiang came up with a smile and said, "What the special envoy said was so powerful."
Su Jin sneered: "You don't believe it?"
Pan Jiang was excited. He recalled his fight with Su Jin when he was in Guancang, Yangzhou, and was speechless. This made the master look like he was nothing and he was kind, but this method was indeed unique, just because he was single. Go up the mountain and break through this unbreakable mountain stronghold from the inside with just your sharp tongue. No one can achieve this kind of courage and ability.
"Commander Pan, I have to work hard for you tonight. Immediately lead people to guard all important locations in the mountain village. At the same time, the mountain is closed to strictly prohibit the entry and exit of idlers. It is too late at this time. We will not worry about anything until dawn."
Pan Jiang cupped his hands and said, "Follow your orders."
Everyone left the forest and went down the pass. Several fires had been lit at the pass. The soldiers were busy sorting the corpses. The road had been cleared. Su Jin felt sad and walked out of the pass on the ground covered with thin blood and ice. , outside the pass, Li Chong, Zhao Dutou, Fang Dutou and others were waiting to greet him. As soon as they saw Su Jin, everyone immediately swarmed over.
Su Jin laughed loudly and was about to speak when he suddenly saw people from the west neighing their horses and lighting up the torches. It seemed like a large group of people were coming this way.
Su Jin was stunned. Could it be that the bandits still had a backup plan? Zhao and Fang both hurriedly ordered the cavalry to form a formation to meet the enemy. Everyone's hearts were filled with anxiety again.
Not long after, a sentinel came to report that Huainan Road transfer envoy Wang Qinian led 800 Zhongzheng troops to come for reinforcements. After hearing the report, Su Jin laughed loudly and said: "I came here to pick up an advantage. I disappeared during the fight. Now the fight is over."
, I came here to eat ready-made food, the timing is really accurate."
Li Zhong said: "What should I do?"
Su Jin said: "What should we do? Are we still going to let him take advantage of us? Zhao and Fang were both in trouble. They immediately led their cavalry troops to intercept. They said that the Yamamoto envoy had sealed off and no one was allowed to approach. Thank you, Mr. Wang.
of kindness.”
Zhao Dutou said: "What if he breaks in forcefully?"
Su Jin gritted his teeth and said: "If he dares to be tough, you will beat him to death. I will bear all the responsibilities."
Everyone trembled, looking at Su Jin as if they were looking at a lion guarding food. It seemed that if the transporter dared to snatch food from Su Jin's mouth, Su Jin would order this person to be killed without hesitation.
All the helpers were sorted out.
Zhao and Fang had seen many domineering officials in Beijing, but none of them dared to challenge the soldiers brought by the transfer envoy like Su Jin. The two of them simply admired Su Jin. Since there were people supporting him,
, how could the fox pretend to be the tiger's power without them, the two of them immediately formed a team to greet him.
Although Wang Qinian, the pacifier of Huainan West Road, did not agree to Su Jin's request for help, he was always paying attention to the movements of Su Jin and others. As soon as the attack on the mountain started tonight, Wang Qinian received a report from the sentry; at first he thought it was a feint attack.
, but as the war progressed, he discovered that the powerful food envoy had used some trick to start a rebellion in the bandits' den.
With a keen sense of smell, he keenly sensed that there was an advantage to be taken advantage of. The Bagong Mountain bandits had been rampant under their noses for so long, and the court had sent several letters to reprimand him. If he could get this credit this time, he would become the official when his term expires.
The center is just around the corner, how can we miss this opportunity?
So he quickly mobilized 800 regular troops and marched to Bagong Mountain. When he reached the mountainside eight miles away, he learned that the two sides were fighting fiercely. Wang Qinian ordered the soldiers to extinguish the torches and move slowly until the situation was settled, and then they marched forward with great fanfare.
Even he felt proud to come to the rescue. No businessman in the world would have such a plan for such a useless thing.
However, what greeted him was the uniform queue and indifferent expressions of the guards Ma Jun. He was very familiar with Zhao Fang and had gone to Shouzhou City several times to 'borrow' things. Wang Qinian had a headache when he saw these two Qiu Ba.
, this time two people blocked the road again, Wang Qinian had to order to stop, got off the sedan and stepped forward to talk.
"Are you two okay?" Wang Qinian himself felt that he had nothing to say. The two of them had just arrived in Shouzhou City this morning and almost took away his concubine's osmanthus oil, but now he said goodbye.
Kind words like "I'm fine with you."
"It turns out to be Mr. Wang. I'm glad to meet you." Zhao and Fang seemed to be meeting him for the first time, and they were extremely polite.
"Both of you are in charge. I have received information that you are attacking the bandit's stronghold. I have sent troops to support you. Quickly take me to help kill the enemy."
"Sir Wang, please come back. Your Majesty the Special Envoy has ordered that the five-mile area around the mountain has been sealed off. I don't need to worry about the bandits. Special Envoy Su has eliminated the bandits and is cleaning up at the moment."
"Oh? So fast? But there may be many remaining bandits in the mountains. How can I sit back and watch Special Envoy Su support me, or take me to help eliminate the remaining bandits and help clear the battlefield."
"Master Wang, are you deaf? We have already told you that Special Envoy Su has ordered that the entire five miles below the mountain be cordoned off. Any idle people who think they are bandits will be shot without mercy." Zhao Dutou became impatient.
"What are you talking about? I am the transfer envoy to Huainan, how can I be the idle people you and others talk about? I have brought troops with good intentions, but you are blocking me here. What's the point? Besides, Bagong Mountain
This is the land under my control on Huainan Road. How could it be that his little grain envoy said that it should be sealed?
The lock can seal it, get out of the way quickly, otherwise I won't save face for you two." Wang Qinian's face sank, and he was actually the transportation envoy who was being used by two children on the basis of some bullshit food envoy.
If the name is blocked, wouldn't it be a big joke if word spread about it?
Zhao Fang and Zhao Fang looked at each other and shouted at the same time: "In that case, don't blame us. We went to the capital with the food envoy Mr. Su, and we only listened to his orders. You insisted on breaking in, that's what happened."
You ruined the job I was waiting for, brothers, follow my orders."
The two hundred horsemen all drew out their swords and raised them, shouting loudly: "Here we are!"
"If anyone dares to break in, he will be killed without mercy!"
"Yes!" The horsemen tightened their reins, and the horses began to crow uneasily, showing a desperate charge posture.
Wang Qinian did not expect that the other party was such a bachelor. He would never dare to engage in a firefight with the horse army. It did not mean that he would definitely lose, but he did not dare to attack the Imperial Guards. The two hundred horse soldiers were all members of the Guards Department and were injured.
Either one would cause endless troubles, let alone charge into battle.
"You..." Wang Qinian was so angry that he was covered in chaff.
"What are we doing? We are acting as ordered, and you, Lord Wang, must not bear any grudge against us." Fang Dutou said.
"Okay, okay, okay." Wang Qinian said three good words in a row, pointed at Zhao Fang and the two of them, and said with his fingers: "How dare you treat me so indifferently, and even try to fight with the Shouzhou Zhongzhengxiang Army, I will kill you
Report your actions to the imperial court, and it will be up to you how you will explain when the time comes."
Zhao Dutou sneered and said: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, but don't forget to write down the cause and effect. My special envoy has said that he will also report to the court to impeach you, Mr. Wang, and Luzhou Magistrate Zhu for standing still and allowing the bandits to rob.
As for the imperial court's food relief, Mr. Wang should think of a way to explain it, so as not to be fooled by the time."
Wang Qinian was so angry that he almost vomited blood and said angrily: "Very good! Whose power can you rely on to be so arrogant and domineering, regardless of the superiority and inferiority, official etiquette, okay! Let's watch the show on donkeys and see."
After saying that, he turned around and got into the sedan, and said in a loud voice: "Go back, go back. I want to write a memorial to the central government all night. This is totally outrageous."
Zhao and Fang laughed while riding on their horses, and a group of horse soldiers also followed suit.dd
