Chapter 20: Begging for Food and Traveling Too Late
(Thanks to the 61st Xinmeng Amao 574 for the generous reward, more updates will be added...)
Although I have made up my mind to endure it today and tomorrow, and watch with cold eyes whether this reckless guy may secretly encourage other brainless guys to go to the grain yard to cause trouble and commit suicide to the end so that they can reap the benefits, but Guo Junjian,
When Pan Chenghu saw Xu Huai and Zheng Tu riding their horses towards them, he couldn't help but beat himself up. He thought, if this bastard humiliated them too much with his words, how could they endure it at all?
If it doesn't happen, wouldn't it be too traceable?
"Brothers, Xu Huai has offended a lot in the past, please forgive me!" Riding his horse to a distance, Xu Huai jumped off the horse and saluted Guo Junfan and Pan Chenghu with their hands raised.
Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu trembled in fright, and subconsciously wanted to pull out the sword from his waist, but then he thought, no, this fool didn't humiliate them, he even called them brother.
Oh my god, what's going on? The sun is coming out from the west?
No, although the sun has not risen at this time, the sky above the distant mountains to the east is bright white, with a few wisps of floating clouds stained with brilliant rosy colors. It is clear that the sun will still rise from the east today.
"Envoy Guo, Envoy Pan, Xu Huai, this reckless guy used to beat you up, but he hasn't figured it out here yet," Zheng Tu rode over and pointed at the confused Guo Jun. Pan Chenghu said, "He worked hard to survive.
In the end, I didn’t even catch the bird feathers, and I was already discouraged. I have been so angry with birds these days, but I understand why Commander Guo and Commander Pan turned into bandits back then. I feel that there were many reasons for beating and scolding you in the past.
A place where I don’t live——”
"..." Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu were speechless for a moment: Is this an apology for being reckless and rude in the past?
Why did it sound so harsh and awkward? They just let this reckless guy beat him and scold him. Didn't they fight back and talk back?
In front of many Xiang army generals behind him, Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu were unable to correct Zheng Tu's remarks. They thought to themselves that no wonder the pig butcher couldn't get on the stage and couldn't even say a flattering word.
"Two brothers, are you still resenting Xu Huai for being too ignorant in the past? Xu Huai does not ask for forgiveness from the two brothers, but also asks the two brothers to rest assured that this time it is all thanks to the planning of the two brothers. The big thing is successful. Xu Huai
Huai will never catch his two brothers fighting and scolding him again." Xu Huaigong handed over his hand, got on his horse again, and asked Guo Jun to judge, and Pan Chenghu went first.
Wait, what does it mean to rely entirely on their planning, and what does it mean to achieve great things?
Guo Junfan and Pan Chenghu looked at each other. Could it be that they were secretly adding fuel to the flames and stirring up chaos so that they could fish in troubled waters and drag the team down? Did this fool know about it?
Or is it that Chen Zixiao secretly revealed some details to them and finally wanted to win them over to join forces?
Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu were both a little confused. They subconsciously turned to look at Chen Zixiao who was standing on the wall to see him off. If Chen Zixiao really had this plan, he wouldn't want to tell them a little bit, right?
Chen Zixiao didn't know what Xu Huai said to Guo Pan. He stood on the wall and saw that Guo Pan and Pan turned their heads and looked over. He waved to indicate that Guo Pan could go to Kelan City boldly. He had many things to do.
There are plans and plans on both sides.
Guo Pan didn't say anything. When Chen Zixiao saw Xu Huai waving his hand towards him, he wondered why this guy was so energetic at this time, but he didn't want to act too abnormal. He could only wave his hand a few more times before turning towards the wall.
Go down.
Seeing Chen Zixiao's reaction, Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu were even more confused. However, since Zheng Tu, a shameless man, was entangled with Xu Huai, a brainless man, it was inconvenient for them to turn back to Caocheng Village to ask Chen Zixiao for clarification.
"What the hell is Chen Zixiao doing? He said he was going to Langu County to contact someone, but he came back from Kelan City two days later?" The two groups of people met and headed towards Kelan City along the post road, peeping at Xu Huai and Zheng Zheng.
Tu rushed to the front of the team to talk to Tang Pan, Xu Xin'an and the others, and Pan Chenghu asked Guo Junpan with some excitement in his heart.
"There should be some hints, but it is impossible to say it too clearly or too harshly," Guo Junpan guessed, "But this fool has no city government at all. Maybe Chen Zixiao just wants him to be able to compete with Meng Laodao and Eucommia ulmoides.
Those few people rushed to the front to cause trouble and blocked the swords and guns for us!"
The martial arts of Xu Huai, Xu Xin'an, Tang Pan, Tang Qing and others had been fighting in Tongbai Mountain for so long last year. They would never dare to question it at all. But to say that Chen Zixiao had come to Xu Huai, Zheng Tu made it clear that it was true.
Guo Junpan was ready to drag people and horses to Luo Cao again, but he thought it was impossible.
The two sides have been fighting in Tongbai Mountain for nearly a year, and both sides have suffered countless casualties. The hatred is not so easy to resolve - to say the least, the matter of recruiting people to Luo Cao is the most confidential. Before each other has gained enough trust, how can it be possible to easily transfer this person to Luo Cao?
Waiting for the secret to be revealed?
Xu Huai, Xu Xin'an and others did not receive enough rewards, so it is normal to have a lot of resentment in their hearts. However, after the Tongbai Mountain bandit rebellion, the Xu family has been controlled by them, and they will definitely get a lot of money, land and house. Guo Junpan doesn't think so
Their resentment can be so deep that they turn into bandits.
After thinking about it, Guo Junpan felt that even if Chen Zixiao had something to say to Zheng Tu and others, he would probably encourage these mindless people to let go and make trouble after going to the grain yard, forcing Guo Zhongxiong to compromise so that he could
Gain more benefits and power.
From this point of view, the interests of both parties seem to be consistent. After all, after accepting the recruitment, they did not gain much benefit or real power, and they were very resentful.
"Brothers, why are you so lazy? Are you hiding behind and making some evil plans to harm me?"
Xu Huai urged Pan Chenghu from the front, and Guo Junpan rushed over to introduce them to Wang Kong, Yan Xiaoyi, Shen Zhene, Zhu Chengjun and others.
"Brother Wang is the number one hero on Jingdong East Road. The first day I challenged him to fight, I still underestimated him. After three or four days of good wine and good meat, I finally got a slight taste of the power of the Demon-Suppressing Gun - but
It's a pity that the prison camp is too restrictive. Brother Wang and I can only compete with sticks instead of guns. The fight is not happy enough, but you must tell me that the two brothers may not be Brother Wang's rivals. All the way to Kelan City
It takes a long time to walk, but you have to make love and make love!"
"I've heard about the reputation of the Beaver King for a long time!" Guo Junpan said to Wang Kong affectionately and cupped his hands.
In order to transport food and horses to the prison, there was a Xiangjun section commander with 20 soldiers responsible for supervising and escorting, and another 60 healthy prisoners served as coolies, accompanying 20 mules, horses and carts.
Even if ordinary generals cannot see very deeply or clearly, they can clearly see that Xu Huai and the others will probably cause some trouble when they go to the grain yard this time. Therefore, they were finally pushed out and controlled by Xu Huai to go to the grain yard to collect food.
This section level officer is the most honest and least backed one out of the six section level officers under Cheng Yanqing, the commander of the Laoyingxiang Army.
Guo Junpan didn't pay much attention to this provincial commander named Xu Zhong and his 20 armed Xiang soldiers, but they were Wang Kong and other 60 healthy prisoners, which made him and Pan Cheng jealous.
There are more than 1,200 assassins and prisoners, most of whom have murder cases.
Sixty people were selected from these people, and in the end, they were able to catch Xu Huai's eyes. No matter what their character was, Guo Junpan didn't think that he and Pan Chenghu could be among the top ten in this group of people just in terms of their boldness and tyranny.
Among the people.
If they could drag such a group of people to the top of a steep mountain to weed themselves, who else in the world could defeat them?
Guo Junpan, when Pan Chenghu walked out of Caocheng Village, he wanted to stay away from Xu Huai, a reckless guy, so as not to be humiliated by his words, but he didn't want Xu Huai to see their attitude change drastically today. Of course, they didn't want to let go of talking to Wang.
An opportunity for Kong and others to get close and intimate.
Guo Junpan just thought that he could get acquainted with each other at this time. After things really got serious in Kelan City and Wang Kong and others were desperate, wouldn't it be easy to encourage them and win them over together?
And Guo Junpan believes that most of the prisoners in this group of prisoners will never be satisfied just because they can have a full meal in the prison camp. Maybe many of them are willing to follow Xu Huai to the grain yard to cause trouble, thinking half of it.
Tao looked for an opportunity to escape.
With this in mind, Zheng Tu gathered the two teams and mixed them together and rushed to Kelan City. Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu eagerly discussed Jianghu affairs with Wang Kong, Zhu Chengjun and others, without realizing anything was wrong.
Of course, in order to quickly close the distance with Wang Kong and others, Guo Junpan also unscrupulously denounced the greed of corrupt officials along the way, bullied the generals and prisoners of the Xiang army, and talked about the power of being a bandit.
This can indeed shorten the distance with other prisoners, and everyone quickly becomes friendly along the way.
Although there is more than 40 miles of mountain road to walk from Caochengzhai to Kelan City, this is an important road connecting Langu County and connecting Fuzhou and Linzhou to the west. It has been repaired over the years and is considered open and flat.
.
Logically speaking, Xu Huai and the others would gather and set off at dawn and should arrive at Kelan City in the afternoon.
However, a group of people chatted nonsense along the way, and occasionally some people stopped to compete with fists, feet and sticks, and then slowly entered Kelan County at noon.
After walking for another seven or eight miles, everyone stopped in front of the Huanglongpo Station at the eastern foot of Guanxun Mountain, preparing to have a wild drink before entering Qianlan County; the food collectors from Huanghuapo and Huangdugulao Camp happened to be along the Guanxun Mountain one after another.
The post road at the eastern foot of Mount Chun comes from the north in the direction of Ningwu County.
Although Mali, Wu Qi, Meng Laodao, and Du Zhong were not in charge of the two teams, they all held positions such as section level and deputy general of the Xiang Army.
Zheng Tu came forward to organize a group of people to gather food and drink on the slope. The leaders of the Huanghuapo prison camp and the Huangdugu prison camp looked at Zheng Tu who came over to invite him to drink. He was very aggressive and threatened to fight if he didn't agree.
Looking at their appearance, there were really not many people around them who could fight. The prisoners who were acting as coolies and the generals of the lower-level Xiang army were eager to get a drink. Wu Qi, Meng Laodao, Du Zhong and others also helped, and they didn't do anything at the moment.
Dare to refuse anything.
Three to four hundred people occupied the slope next to the post road. Guo Junpan noticed that Xu Huai and the others had prepared so much wine and meat along the way. They met the food collectors from Huanghuapo Lao Camp and Huangdulan Lao Camp outside Kelan City. How many people met them outside Kelan City?
There are some differences and abnormalities, but how can you swallow the awesomeness that you have blown away?
After drinking for more than an hour, a group of people picked up the grain and headed back from Kelan City. They passed by Huanglongpo Station. Zheng Tu and his men stopped them to inquire about the quality of the grain they had received.
After opening more than twenty bags of grain one by one, they saw that they were full of old grain, rotten grain, weeds, silt, and sand. The prisoners and the soldiers on the ground floor were extremely angry and clamored to burn the grain and grass.
Xu Huai stood up drunk, smashed a wine jar, and shouted:
"The grain officials are evil-hearted and want to bully us with old grains. The prisoners deserve death. Are the Xiang soldiers also pigs and dogs? Bah, I think in the eyes of these evil-hearted grain officials, I am not even as good as a pig or a dog. We must never do it again.
Sitting and being bullied like this. However, it is difficult to achieve success if people are not aligned. Brother Guo and Brother Pan hate these black-hearted grain officials as much as we do. In the early years, they could not even bear the exploitation, so they became angry and became bandits. But everyone present today,
In terms of official status, they are the most prominent, and in terms of reputation, they are also the most famous. Today we will elect two brothers as leaders and lead us to the grain yard to make a fuss. Who the hell wants to be a coward? Don't breed, want to retract your head
The mother-in-law is showing off her crotch and is unwilling to obey the orders of Commander Guo and Commander Pan. If you want to leave at this time, stand up now and let me take off the eggs in your crotch before leaving!"
Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu suddenly woke up at this time, but looking at the four to five hundred prisoners, the soldiers at the bottom looked at them angrily and enthusiastically. They knew in their hearts that if they dared to say no, Xu Huai, the killer, would not need to take action.
These people will tear them apart first...
What is a wrap-up? This motherfucker is called a wrap-up!
