Are you encountering slippery ground at this time?
The captain's heart sank, and his face trembled slightly.
"Captain Yang, what happened?"
Zhai Huan, who was at the rear of the tax collection team, noticed that the team had stopped and it was not the time to rest, so he rode forward to ask.
"The ground ahead is slippery and we can't walk."
When the captain saw that the visitor was Zhai Huan, he felt displeased but did not show it on his face. However, he was habitually cold-faced and his face was not very good. Zhai Huan did not pay attention to this detail. He and this
The captain had "worked together" for a few days, and the other person's likes and dislikes had little to do with him.
"Slippery floor?"
Zhai Huan's sensitive nerves were touched.
He turned to the scout and asked: "Is there any sign of man?"
Although slippery ground is a relatively common natural disaster, and it happens during marches and wars, it happened to be this sensitive moment, and they happened to encounter it at this time, so he couldn't help but think about it.
The scout glanced at his real superior out of the corner of his eye. Seeing that the latter had no objection, he replied: "I checked carefully and there are no signs of man-made behavior."
Zhai Huan frowned.
If there are no human signs, is it a coincidence?
He asked again: "How long will it take to clean it up?"
A powerful and courageous warrior can even shake a mountain with one person's power, and it is not a problem to clear a road in a short time.
The scout's reply disappointed him. Because the mountain was unstable and the road could not be cleared violently, half a day was still an optimistic estimate. If there were other unexpected situations along the way, it might have delayed a whole day.
This scout is also a native of Sibao County and is very familiar with the terrain and roads in the county. According to his experience, if you choose to take a detour, you will be delayed by at most one hour compared to the original route. This time can be made up by reducing the rest time.
Zhai Huan was noncommittal about this suggestion.
The heavy rains of the past few days may not have only affected the nearby official road. Who knows that the detour will not encounter the same trouble?
However, he is not the decision-maker.
Zhai Huan asked: "What do Captain Yang think?"
The captain was hesitant.
Wasting half a day clearing the road?
Although it is safe and secure, the scout also said that there may be a second landslip on the way, which may cause more time delays and miss the handover moment. If we take a detour, the risks are unknown...
He hesitated for half a quarter of an hour.
Zhai Huan is also not easy to urge.
Zhai Le did have a small complaint.
He was riding on the horse, leaning towards his cousin, and Zhai Huan made a tacit understanding to prevent outsiders from prying. Zhai Le assuredly complained: "Brother, is that captain so hard at work?"
Why is there any hesitation about this kind of thing?
Of course we have to send people to clear the roads.
As for the detour, it will take a day and a half?
Please, let’s confuse the eyes of others with the fake team. Not to mention it’s delayed by one day, so what if it’s delayed by ten days and a half?
detour?
No need!
Zhai Huan's face was slightly different, and a terrible guess flashed through his heart. His eyes seemed to be inadvertently scanning the boxes of sealed tax money boxes, and his chest bulged several times.
He became unusually stern: "Ale!"
Zhai Le instantly withered into frost and hit the eggplant.
Ever since he had a serious nickname, he didn't like others calling him that anymore. The title "Ale" was too delicate and not manly enough. My cousin also knew his secret intentions and rarely called him that.
Once you shout like that...
Zhai Le almost lost his temper instantly.
He pursed his lips in grievance and complained in private, but it wasn't like he was offending in front of others... It couldn't be like that, right?
Zhai Huan solemnly said: "Ale, be careful next time."
Zhai Le was puzzled: "Is there something wrong?"
"There is a problem with the tax bank."
Zhai Le was frightened: "Is there a problem? What can I do with the tax money that was originally fake... Ah, what do you mean, brother... is it true?"
Zhai Huan responded very softly: "Yes."
Out of ten [eight] [nine] it is true...
If not, why would Captain Yang worry about wasting time?
Zhai Huan patted his cousin on the shoulder and warned: "Always be vigilant to prevent secret assassinations. Your own safety is the most important thing."
As for tax bank?
It's best if you can keep it, but it's God's will if you can't.
After all, he doesn't know that this is real tax money, does he?
If you really meet a powerful enemy, why would you risk your life and put yourself and Ah Le in danger for a batch of fake tax money?
The only thing I didn't expect was that the county guard was a cruel man.
How dare you take this risk.
Even though Zhai Huan was so cold and cold, he still felt a little bit angry.
After a while, Captain Yang finally came to his conclusion, gritted his teeth, and decided to take the risk and take a detour by taking another more remote path. There were almost no travelers on this path, and it was almost always narrow enough for only one carriage to pass.
Mountain road.
There are dense forests on both sides of the mountain road.
The uneven and muddy mountain road that has not yet dried out added a lot of difficulty to the team. It would be difficult for ordinary people to walk with light packs, let alone push vehicles loaded with heavy boxes. In just half an hour, they were able to complete the journey.
Some soldiers were panting.
It's obviously autumn, but it's so hot that I'm sweating profusely.
"Come on! Why are you stopping?" Captain Yang was riding a horse with a sullen face. Seeing the soldiers walking slower and slower, he felt angry and yelled harshly, "It's only been a long way and you are so tired? You can't even crawl.
You have to get up! How many heads do you have to compensate for wasting time?"
The soldiers dared not speak.
Even Captain Yang's deputy officers only dared to look at him.
So the soldier gritted his teeth and walked for most of an hour.
In the end, he couldn't stand it any longer. The soldier who was whipped by Captain Yang begged for mercy: "I wouldn't move unless I waited. It's really difficult to walk on this road. Not to mention people, even mules have to lie down when they come. General."
Come on, let me stop and have a rest."
How long has it been?
His clothes were completely wet with sweat, and his whole body was drenched in sweat as if he had been fished out of water. His limbs were exhausted, swollen and sore. Not to mention pushing the tax collection vehicle away, but to let him walk a few more steps.
It also hurts so much that I can't breathe.
They have practiced martial arts, but their physical strength is only slightly better than that of ordinary people. They are not even low-ranking soldiers. Even the carts and carts carry five to six hundred kilograms. Even if they work together and work together, one person pushes and the other pulls.
I can't stand such a muddy and bumpy appearance.
Captain Yang's face turned dark when he heard this.
Zhai Le, who was at the rear, was not used to his behavior of scolding and whipping his subordinates at every turn, but when he saw this scene, he burst out laughing for some reason. Although he reacted quickly, he still leaked the news, which angered Yang Du.
Wei glared unkindly.
Zhai Huan was helpless: "Why are you smiling?"
Zhai Le: "I laughed because I suddenly thought of something funny."
Zhai Huan asked him again: "What's so funny?"
"Brother, do you think this posture looks like that group of Liangshan heroes who outsmarted the birthday plan? Unfortunately, this captain's surname is Yang..."
Zhai Huan: "..."
There are countless contents recorded on the fragments of the Thief Star, including powerful and unpredictable civil and military stories, as well as popular novels, such as "Water Margin" that Zhai Le liked very much, but Zhai Huan didn't like it, so he couldn't poke his cousin.
The point of laughter.
Zhai Le couldn't help but whispered: "It will be really interesting if a group of date sellers and wine sellers appear later..."
