Chapter 211 The three cooks died for the country inexplicably
Zhang Facun observed the situation for a moment and said: "Brother, the direction of the noise of the bandits is not in the cave dwelling. Before they find us, we must rush there and find a way to plug that loophole."
"Plug the loophole, what loophole?" the little eunuch wondered.
"Think about it," Zhang Facun explained, "if the thieves find that there is no one in the sack, they will search all over the mountain. We don't understand the terrain here, and we don't know how big the mountain is. If we are caught by them again, there will be no survivors.
Maybe, in my opinion, it’s better to grab three back-up guys…”
The little eunuch immediately understood what Zhang Facun meant, nodded and said with a smile: "Your idea is quite damaging."
Zhang Facun said disapprovingly: "How many good people are there among those who go to the mountains to become bandits? Now that the situation is urgent, we have to use their lives to block the way of our officers and soldiers. They can be regarded as serving the country by dying."
The little eunuch said: "It's not too late, let's act quickly!"
"Brother, I have to trouble you with something." Zhang Fazao smiled mischievously in the dark.
"What are you talking about?" At this time, the little eunuch no longer had the majesty of the former commander, but looked like a little follower.
"You have to be a porter with us once more" Zhang Facun explained the task
"I'm not a donkey, so what am I supposed to be?" The little eunuch was still in a fog.
Zhang Facun said: "If you are not a donkey, you have to do something like a donkey. We will capture the prisoners later. We don't have enough people, so you have to help us carry one."
The little eunuch chuckled and said: "What's the big deal for me? It turns out this is my job. I'll help you carry one."
The lanterns and torches in the bandit's nest were lit for a while, and then they all went down the mountain. In an instant, the mountaintop returned to its previous darkness and calmness. Zhang Facun said:
"Brother, you have trouble walking at night, so I'll carry you for a while first!"
The little eunuch leaned on Zhang Facun's back and smiled: "You just said you wanted me to be a donkey, but I didn't expect you to be a donkey first."
Zhang Facun sighed and said: "A person's life can be sour, sweet, bitter or spicy. If you don't taste any of it, if it weren't for you, I would still be a thief in Dakeng Town!"
The little eunuch also sighed: "You will suffer a lot if you follow me."
Zhang Facun said: "Suffering is suffering. What I did with my eldest brother was an earth-shaking undertaking. Even if I die, it is worth it."
"Don't talk about death, we brothers must live well. The good days are yet to come, and we still have to wait for the emperor's reward!" the little eunuch corrected with a smile.
While talking, the three of them arrived at the den of thieves and found a lighted room. When they looked inside, they saw a kitchen, no more, no less. Three master chefs were busy cutting vegetables, mincing meat, making noodles and making fire!
Zhang Facun made a gesture, and the three tigers rushed in. The masters were knocked unconscious before they could figure out what was going on. Zhang Facun was careful. He first fished out a large piece of meat from the broth pot, wrapped it up and put it in his arms.
Then he found a rope in the corner of the kitchen and tied it to his waist. Then he carried a master on his back to the cave dwelling.
The three masters were tied up, and just in case they woke up and made a noise, each of them stuffed a piece of rag into his mouth, and then put it into a sack. The little eunuch always couldn't bear it. I wonder if these three have any murder cases, are they good guys or bad guys?
Throwing them off the cliff alive like this is not the best idea if there are still wives, children, and old parents at home. He told his thoughts, and Zhang Facun smiled and said:
"Brother, as a general, you have killed countless people, why did you become a wife today?"
The little eunuch said: "Everyone I kill has a reason, and I never kill someone without a reason."
Zhang Facun retorted: "As you said, it is appropriate for the bandits to throw us into the ravine? I have just said that they are also called serving the country. Besides, these three people were not killed by us, they were just killed by us.
Let's just go and die. The murderer is a bandit. If the brother is intentional and investigates afterwards and it turns out that these three people were indeed thrown down the mountain to death, and they were good people without any murders during their lifetime, then report it to the court and provide pensions to their families.
, the government supports their parents, wives and children, they are also considered martyrs, what do you think?"
The little eunuch said: "That's all."
After the bandit Jia Haisheng cleaned up the three young eunuchs, the brothers continued to sit down and drink. Jia Haisheng picked up a bowl of wine and said to the fourth child:
"Thanks to you, fourth brother. If you hadn't recognized him in time, we would have almost been fooled into thinking we were brothers. Did you recognize the wrong person?"
The fourth child raised his neck, poured down the bowl of wine offered by the leader of the village, wiped his mouth and said, "How could I admit my mistake? After Princess Hulunbei captured this officer and soldier leader, I was the one who took him to prison.
Later, the man surnamed Pan ran away, and the responsibility for the investigation in Hulunbei fell on me. When I saw that the situation was not good, I defected to my brother. You are here, do you think I can admit the wrong person? "
Jia Haisheng heard what he said was reasonable and praised: "Okay, fourth brother, you are doing a good job. The horse of the military commander has been sold to someone else, so I will reward you with his sword!"
The fourth child stood up from the table, clasped his hands into fists, and said respectfully: "Thank you, brother!"
The second and third children said: "Brother, I have something unclear?"
"Tell me, brother, do we still need to beat around the bush like this?" Jia Haisheng picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth.
"If you don't kill the man named Pan immediately, why do you have to wait until the dead of night?" asked the second and third sons.
"You don't understand this. The three of them are not ordinary people. If the news leaks out and it is said that we killed the army commander, how big do you think this crime should be? How dare we birdmen fight with
Is the court right?"
"What if we let them go?" the second and third asked again.
"You can't let them go," Jia Haisheng said. "Now that we've caught them, we can't let them go."
The second and third children said: "What if we take this opportunity to defect to the army? Maybe we can be successful in rescuing the army and get a big official position! Didn't Song Gongming lead Liangshan to recruit all the heroes?"
"Forget it, forget it, don't ask Huazi to marry a wife just to think about good things!" Jia Haisheng shook his head disdainfully and said, "Why should we be recruited? Did we rescue that person named Pan? We have been doing it to him from the beginning.
It’s a trap. Isn’t it like recruiting people to be beheaded by sending them to their doorsteps?”
The second and third sons were now speechless, and Jia Haisheng continued:
"As soon as the officers and soldiers retreat, the Han people will start to move around. By then we will still have a lot of business to do, and we won't worry about our brothers going hungry."
"What should we do with the three master chefs? When we borrowed them from Fugui Tower, we agreed on a six-month deadline, and it's almost here." As soon as the second and third brothers heard the boss talk about his stomach, they immediately thought of cooking.
"Hey - what the hell, is there anyone who can return the things that the thief borrowed? I'll hold off for now. If that doesn't work, I'll kill the boss of Fugui Tower and ask him to come and ask for his help." Jia Haisheng said confidently.
Suddenly, a young man came to report: "Your Majesty, there is a woman at the bottom of the mountain who is yelling and scolding, saying that she wants someone, otherwise she will come up the mountain overnight."
Jia Haisheng yelled and said: "Come on, let's see, a woman can be so brave. I'm worried about my wife!"
The leader of the village gave the order, and all the torches were lit immediately. Except for the three cooks, the whole village came out and went down the mountain in a hurry.
When Jia Haisheng came closer, he saw that it was a woman dressed as a foreigner, so he didn't dare to step forward and asked the fourth child behind him:
"Brother, do you know this bitch?"
"She is my princess from Hulunbei," said the fourth child
Tianshan Xue watched the bandit soldiers coming down the mountain from a distance. Before he could get closer, he shouted loudly: "If you want to survive, let Marshal Pan go down the mountain, otherwise no one from your village will be left behind!"
Jia Haisheng didn't want to be an enemy of the people, so he shouted "Retreat", and the gangsters who had just come down the mountain immediately turned around and went up the mountain.
The four thieves sat in the main hall again and drank together. The second and third robbers suggested waiting, but the fourth thought they should just kill them. Jia Haisheng couldn't help but shout:
"Let the tiger return to the mountain, and the tiger will hurt people. Throw those three people into the ditch!"
