Zhao Qingshan took people to greet the people in the town to avoid causing panic.
Zhao Lu made this trip with four teams of men and horses, one on the front and one on the left, guarding the four hundred people in the middle. Half of the four hundred people had mounts, and the other half did not. After ten days, Zhao Xian messed them up and rearranged them. Those who were good at riding were
Most of the second team were from mountain bandits, and most of the two infantry teams were from young and strong common people.
Looking at the four groups of soldiers who were pulling up with their own hands, Zhao Yan remembered what Butler Zhao said to him that night.
"Uncle Zhao, in addition to taking away Xiangyong's family and my mother when I come back this time, I also have some things I need to trouble you, Uncle Zhao."
Uncle Zhao, who was over fifty years old, heard this and said with a smile: "Young master, if you have something to do, just give me direct instructions. Don't dare to say trouble."
Zhao Yan learned from Li Chenfeng that this housekeeper Zhao was not an ordinary housekeeper. He was originally an official. He just offended someone he shouldn't have offended, so he followed Li Chenfeng to escape. The things and property in Li Chenfeng's home
, the operation of the store is all done by Butler Zhao. Now besides Li Chenfeng
In addition to several small shops in Xinyan Town, there are three large shops in Le County, Yuan County, and Changyun County. There are thousands of acres of fertile land outside Xinyan Town, and the family has no less than 300,000 taels of silver.
.However, Li Chenfeng wanted to help Zhao Nu, so he also threw the money to Zhao Nu and asked Zhao Nu to arrange it.
After hearing what Butler Zhao said, Zhao Yan took out a letter from his arms and handed it to him, saying: "This is written by Uncle Li to Uncle Zhao. Uncle Zhao, please read it."
Butler Zhao found the letter in Zhao Yu's hand. After reading it for a long time, his expression changed. After reading it, he looked at Zhao Yu for a while and then said slowly: "So that's it. Since Chen Feng has made the decision, I won't say anything more."
, As for the matter of purchasing grain, I will handle it and let Le County transport it here."
"Then thank you, Uncle Zhao." Zhao Yu gave a salute and prepared to leave.
There was a hint of sadness on Butler Zhao's slightly old face, and he said softly: "Since you called me Uncle Zhao, let me tell you a piece of news. The Bodu Mohe troops who occupied Changzhou may be heading west to plot Yanzhou.
and Linzhou, so you have to be careful in everything!"
"What?" Zhao Yu was shocked.
How about suppressing bandits? A tribe from a certain ethnic group is coming to attack the city. Can you get involved?
"I wonder where Uncle Zhao got the news from?"
"What? Don't you believe it?" Butler Zhao said angrily.
"Of course not, it's just..."
"This news did not come from the land of Yan and Lin. It was guessed by a good friend of mine from the mobilization of Bodu troops. In short, just be careful. By the way, I heard that you are planning to recruit mountain bandit prisoners?"
"Yes, these bandits are fierce bandits who lick blood with their swords. They are stronger than ordinary young men. After weeding out the stubborn ones and incorporating them into the team, the team's combat effectiveness will be greatly improved."
Butler Zhao smiled and said: "It's good if you can think like this. In addition, you have to deal with the relationship between these bandits and the townspeople under you. Besides, have you thought about the future?"
Zhao Yu asked in confusion: "In the future? What future?"
"When you gather a group of people, apart from wanting to do what you want to do, have you ever thought about what you will do in the future? What will happen to the people under you?"
"this……"
Zhao Yu really hasn't thought about what he will do in the future. Now he just wants to gather a group of people, change their identity, and kill the governor and captain of Pingzhou. In Zhao Yu's words, even if he destroys the entire city of Pingzhou
, and he did not hesitate, as long as he could avenge his father and his brothers. As for the future, he never thought about it. Although Zhao Yu in his previous life was not good at communication, he was loyal and for the sake of brotherhood, it would not matter if he lost his life.
He didn't care. Although Zhao Yu was no longer taciturn, he didn't care if he risked his life for revenge. But he thought of his mother, so he didn't risk his life. He just wanted to hide his identity and rectify it. Sometimes he even thought of his mother.
I thought about taking my own people to join the bandits and invade Pingzhou City, or follow the foreign tribes into Pingzhou City. However, after considering my mother, I gave up the latter option.
"In the future..." Zhao Yu murmured to himself.
"Yes, these people are following you. You won't think about their future, right? If you have time to think about it for yourself, I'll go to bed first..."
That's right, I'm no longer alone now. I can't think about my brothers and my subordinates. I can't survive tomorrow. First, gather a group of people and follow the governor of Youzhou or Zhenbei.
"Team one and two, gather in front of the team, three against four, form a defensive formation, lined up on both sides of the team." Zhao Yu quickly ordered.
When the whistle sounds, it means that the outpost has discovered the enemy and alerts the team.
"Dong dong dong!" A series of rapid sounds of horse hooves came, and then a dozen figures appeared in front of everyone.
In the meantime, Zhao Qingshan and four others were galloping in front, followed by more than a dozen knights in black chasing after them.
"Small team, enter!"
Zhao Hai ran out with the fifty men under him. However, the thirteen men on the other side were not afraid when they saw the knights galloping in front of them. Their speed did not slow down at all. Instead, they pulled out a small black round shield from their sides.
Facing Zhao Hai's team.
"kill!"
Fifty people fight against thirteen.
The light of the sword was flying, blood was splashing everywhere, and the two groups of men and horses passed by each other at high speed.
Zhao Hai's men surrounded the opponent, stabbing the opponent with silver spears like dragons, flying two small bucklers, and knocking the two men off their horses. Although Zhao Hai killed the two opponents in one fell swoop, he also felt that the two men were
Much stronger than the bandits he killed.
Sure enough, after a while, there were only forty-two people still riding on the horses, and eight of them fell between the two sides. There were also eight of the thirteen knights in black, but three of them were killed by Zhao Hai.
Fifty people fought against thirteen people, both sides suffered the same casualties. This made Zhao Hai extremely ashamed, his face turned red, and he shouted: "Brothers, follow me to kill them." After saying that, the spear nodded like a phoenix and clicked hard.
On top of their round shields.
"Bump!"
The two round shields were knocked away. Zhao Hai ignored the surprised two people and galloped toward the two people outside. His spear swept across, making a whistling sound, and hit one of them on the waist.
"Bump!" The man in black broke away from the horse and flew up, but the man did fold up and spattered a trace of blood. Of course, he couldn't die anymore.
"Chirp!" "Stab!"
Zhao Hai's spear pierced the round shield in the hand of the last person, causing a splash of sparks. Zhao Hai knew that this person was the leader of the thirteen people, and was also the most powerful one on the other side. When there were two of his subordinates, he was defeated by the other side.
Three people were killed and injured at the same time.
The two of them were silent, swords and guns intersecting. One was like a silver dragon flying into the air, and the other was like a glow around him. The two people whose shields were knocked away by Zhao Hai were instantly killed by the red-eyed rebels. Everyone looked at Zhao Hai.
A fierce battle between the sea and each other.
Zhao Hai saw that the opponent's small round shield was tightly guarded. In anger, he picked up his spear and slashed at the opponent's side with all his strength.
"bump!"
There was a loud noise, the gun and shield were fired, the man in black's jaw was broken, his palms were numb, and he could no longer hold the buckler in his hand. "Damn, this kid is so strong!" As soon as the man in black finished his thoughts, he felt
My throat felt cold, and I immediately lost all feeling.
Looking at the bloody field, many family members of the rebels vomited. However, Zhao Yan and the rebels under his command had serious faces.
"Zhao Hai, find a better place nearby and bury all the brothers' bones. Zhao Qingshan, you are here, tell me what happened?"
Zhao Qingshan hurriedly came to Zhao Yu and said nervously: "As soon as we arrived in the town, we found a group of people chasing a man outside the town. The man threw himself in front of his subordinate's horse and fainted. When the subordinate saw this, he
So I dragged him onto the horse and galloped back, thinking..."
"I thought the other party only had thirteen people. There were hundreds of us, so the other party would not dare to come. Is that right?" Zhao Yan said coldly.
Zhao Qingshan had a slight sweat on his forehead and whispered: "Yes, this subordinate thinks so."
"Okay, the fault is not yours. Remember, you can only consider rescuing others if you protect yourself. The person who saved you will wake up and ask about the situation later."
"Brother, I..." Zhao Hai blushed and whispered.
Zhao Yan said calmly: "Okay, I don't blame you. The opponent is very powerful. Not only does he have a sharp long knife, but he also has a fine iron round shield. Even your spear can't damage it. I don't know if they are.
Who are they? By the way, after collecting their weapons and items, dig a hole and bury the other party as well."
After finishing everything, the group of people came to the outside of Liujia Town and found a flat place to rest. After Zhao Yu arranged for the sentinels, they started to bury pots and make rice.
"How's it going? Yesterday, we were talking about how powerful our team was. Today, the opponent has thirteen people and we have fifty people, one team. What's the result? The casualties are almost the same as the opponent's." Zhao Yan said with a gloomy face.
Zhao Yan also believed that although his team did not dare to compare with the regular army, it would not be weaker than the bandits. As a result, the thirteen people fought on a par with his fifty people. He was slapped in the face, Chi Guoguo
He was slapped in the face. Zhao Yan was very angry.
"Why, you're not talking anymore? Do you think all the bandits in the world are the same as Crouching Tiger Mountain? There are many reasons why Crouching Tiger Mountain can be taken down without bloodshed. First of all, we took advantage of their big leader to lead people and
They fought in a melee in Xinyan Town, attacked from behind, shocked the people, and forced them to surrender. Then they used tricks to lure the bandits out of Wohu Mountain, and
We broke into it and won the victory through an exceptional pincer attack. You all think you are gods? I asked you to train hard, but you didn't take it seriously. Have you seen the results? The bandits are relatively easy to fight. If they encounter foreigners, their combat effectiveness
What’s more, when the time comes, it’s not others but you who will be wiped out. Think about it carefully and train seriously when you return to Crouching Tiger Mountain.”
After listening to Zhao Yan's words, several people lowered their heads in shame, especially Zhao Hai and Xu He. The two teams were adapted from mountain bandit prisoners and had considerable combat effectiveness. After ten days of military posture,
After the formation training, the momentum changed drastically, and they hoped that Zhao Yan could lead people to attack the bandits in other places instead of just training.
