Two guards came over, stared at the three of them, and scolded with an unkind expression: "Look, I'll gouge out your eyes again. A dog-like person dares to stare at the lady!"
Zhang Xiu's face turned cold, and when he was about to step forward, Jia Rong gently grabbed him and said with a smile: "This elder brother is joking, let's leave now."
"Lord, those two are so abominable, they should be taught a lesson." Zhang Xiu said in a low voice.
"Idiot, we are servants now, don't attract other people's attention, otherwise how can we go to Xuzhou." Jia Rong slapped Zhang Xiu on the head.
Zhang Xiu said yes, but there was still a cold glint in his eyes. Just now, Jia Rong gave him a kind slap, which greatly benefited Zhang Xiu. He felt that his status in the army and Jia Rong's heart were no longer that of a simple general under his command.
"A little lesson, don't cause big trouble." Before leaving, Jia Rong said lightly.
The two guards were holding their mouths and beating them until a gust of cold wind blew. They didn't know who the murderer was, and they knew that the beating was...
It was in vain, he didn't even see the other party's shadow, but his clothes were also taken off. What should I do? Just when he was about to scream, a strange-looking weapon was placed on his neck. Looking at the other party's cold eyes, he guarded
He closed his mouth very wisely.
"Put on their clothes and don't show your flaws." Zhang Xiu ordered in a low voice.
"promise!"
A moment later, the two guards appeared in the convoy again. When they walked to Jia Rong again, they nodded slightly and unnoticeably.
Jia Rong closed his eyes slightly and lay on the grass without saying a word. He just looked at the beautiful figure in the distance from time to time. It was a very pleasant thing to have a beautiful woman on the journey.
This caravan is from Xuzhou. Why there is such a beautiful woman in the caravan is puzzling to me.
After a short rest, the convoy moved forward again. The Central Plains was not like under the rule of the Xiliang Army. There were robbers everywhere, including bandits with thousands of troops.
Only five days after leaving Hangu Pass, the caravan encountered the first wave of robbers. When the one hundred soldiers accompanying them showed the flag of the Xiliang Army, the robbers immediately dispersed.
In the shadow of the famous tree, the reputation of the Xiliang Army in this area is unmatched. It is unwise to offend such a giant because of a merchant's little property. Most of the robbers in this area were expelled by the Xiliang Army.
Those who came out had seen the combat power of the Xiliang Army, so they naturally did not dare to act recklessly.
Jiang Fei walked up to Jia Rong and said softly: "How about it? As soon as the Xiliang Army comes out, the robbers will flee on the way. If I become a soldier in the future, I will join the Xiliang Army."
Jia Rong smiled and said: "That's natural. People with strong martial arts skills like Brother Jiang can easily get a battalion general in the Xiliang army."
"Battle general? What is it? Is he also a general?" Jiang Fei asked.
The surrounding servants also turned their attention to Jia Rong.
Jia Rong cleared his throat, sat in the middle of the crowd, and explained: "I have been in Chang'an for some years, and I naturally know some things about the Xiliang Army. In the army, the most senior person is the marshal, but when marching to fight, division generals are often
Command, like the Xiliang Army that defeated Daijun in Youzhou this time, the highest level is the division general, and below the division general is the regiment general. In the Xiliang Army, the regiment general is an extraordinary general. You know Lu Bu, right? He is
General."
Jia Rong's explanation made him rise in the status of a servant. Everyone came to ask him if they wanted to know anything. Jia Rong was happy to do so. He patiently explained that these people may seem to be just servants now.
It's hard to guarantee that they don't have great ambitions in their hearts. Most of the heroes are dog-slayers. Jia Rong, who was born in a poor family, will naturally not despise the people at the bottom.
The moving convoy suddenly stopped abruptly. Jia Rong opened his sleepy eyes and asked, "What's wrong?" According to his calculations, each time the convoy moved forward, it took a long time.
Zhang Xiu jumped off the carriage, but after a moment, he came back and whispered: "Sir, there are bandits ahead."
Jiang Fei shouted: "The bandits dare to be so rampant. I wonder if there are Xiliang army guards in the convoy. They are really a bunch of blind people. Let's go and see the excitement." Jiang Fei is also a restless person at heart.
Jia Rong reminded: "Brother Jiang, we are almost at the border of Xuzhou now. It is so far away from Chang'an. How can the bandits be afraid? However, bandits are all desperadoes, so it is better to be careful."
Jiang Fei touched his head sheepishly and nodded repeatedly.
"Come on, let's go take a look!" Jia Rong has been among the servants for such a long time, and he has become the leader of this group of people. Whenever he speaks, these servants will obey him completely.
Directly in front of the convoy, hundreds of soldiers from the Xiliang Army were lined up. The leader said proudly: "I am Yu San, the company commander of the Xiliang Army. The bandits in front of us disperse quickly."
The bandit glanced at the banner of the Xiliang Army, with a look of fear in his eyes.
"Brother, what should I do?"
"Humph, no matter how strong the Xiliang army is, it can only have a hundred people, and we have a thousand people. We are afraid of what he will do." The leader was born with a tiger's back and a wolf's waist. He was about nine feet tall and held a long knife.
There were faint drops of blood, obviously from someone licking the blood from the knife edge.
"We won't be in trouble if we keep the money, otherwise we won't be afraid even if the Dongliang army comes, let alone the Xiliang army." The leader next to the nine-foot-old man yelled in a pretentious manner.
Yu San coldly snorted: "You won't shed tears until you see the coffin!"
"Stop talking nonsense. There is no one within a hundred miles who doesn't know me, the Great Sword King. As I said before, if you leave the money, we won't be in too much trouble." The Great Sword King said, still feeling a little wary about the Xiliang Army.
, especially the equipment on those soldiers, even the Big Sword King was envious after seeing it.
Jia Rong asked: "King of Broad Swords? Who is he?"
Jiang Fei was obviously familiar with this area and explained: "He is a famous robber in the nearby area. He has a big sword that no one can beat. He is quite famous in a hundred miles. In the past, he would never dare to take action when he saw our caravan. I don't know why.
How did their power grow to more than 2,000 people?"
Seeing that the bandits were powerful, Yu San did not dare to make a decision. He turned his attention to Xu He, the leader of the convoy, and said, "Mr. Xu, what do you think?"
Xu He is a gray old man in his fifties. Hearing this, he cast his eyes on the carriage not far away. He seemed to have made a lot of determination and said: "How about I give you half of my property? We are also small businessmen."
You can’t afford to lose too much when buying and selling.”
The Great Sword King glanced at Yu San with fear, and was about to nod in agreement when he suddenly saw a figure coming out of a carriage in the distance, licked his lips and said, "Okay, but the girl will also be sent to the mountain together."
When Xu He saw this, he was shocked and said hurriedly: "No, this strong man, this is the lady of my employer."
"Miss Boss? It just so happens that if she follows me, when your caravan comes here in the future, no robbers will dare to attack you. This time, I don't want your stuff, just use it as a betrothal gift." The Big Sword King said with a smile,
His tone was extremely domineering.
"Exactly, my eldest brother has taken a liking to your boss's lady. That's her blessing. I think my eldest brother is also a well-known figure in hundreds of miles around here. There are many women who are willing to follow him."
Xu He secretly regretted why he didn't tell the lady not to get off the carriage. His expression kept changing, and he held his hands and said: "Strong man, as long as we don't embarrass the lady host, we are willing to keep 70% of all the items. How about it?" Xu He made the biggest concession.
Even if all the goods are not needed, the hostess cannot make any mistakes.
"Seventy percent?" The Big Sword King laughed and said: "I only want that lady, and I won't take the rest, otherwise my more than a thousand men will kill you all. The lady and the property are not all ours.
Old man, don’t let your imagination run wild.”
Xu He whispered to San: "General Yu, I'm afraid this matter won't be rectified. Let the soldiers prepare for battle."
Yu San had a bitter look on his face, "Mr. Xu, there are more than a thousand people on the other side, I'm afraid..."
Xu He looked determined and whispered: "As long as we can resist these bandits and save the life of the young lady, all your losses will be compensated three times."
Yu San thought for a long time and nodded: "Okay! Please take care of yourself during times of war."
"Brother Liang, what's wrong, the bandits in front of us have taken a liking to our boss's lady and want to rob her up the mountain." Jiang Fei hurried over and said.
"Miss Boss? Is that her?" Jia Rong pointed to the beautiful figure not far away.
"It seems so, I haven't seen it either."
"It's true that beauty is a disaster. Let's go and have a look." Jia Rong said loudly.
The situation was critical. Jia Rong became the mainstay of the servants. He led more than a hundred servants towards the front of the convoy. He was quite powerful for a while. The lone wolf soldiers who secretly protected Jia Rong also stepped forward immediately, let alone the ones in front of him.
There are more than a thousand people, that is, two thousand people. Just more than a hundred lone wolf soldiers are enough to ensure that Jia Rong is safe.
Yu San shouted coldly, and hundreds of Xiliang Army soldiers immediately prepared for battle. These soldiers were all elite soldiers in the army. They had experienced hundreds of battles. Although the bandits in front of them were powerful, they did not take them seriously.
The reason for pretending was that the soldiers in hand would suffer too much loss and it would be difficult to explain after returning.
"Brother Big Sword King, no matter how much money you have, it's not good to take it with your life, right?" Jia Rong, surrounded by more than a hundred servants, walked to the front of the motorcade and said loudly.
The young lady that the sword king was talking about also walked to the front of the motorcade driven by curiosity. After learning the purpose of these bandits, her pretty face had already turned pale, and she secretly hated herself for stepping out of the carriage.
"Look at these soldiers of the Xiliang Army, they are all in armor. Even if there are two thousand of you, you won't be able to gain any advantage if you attack them, right? You should keep your guard up. I really want to see you in the future. The owner of this convoy is very wealthy. I learned that
After this incident, he will definitely be furious, and it won't be a good idea to lead an army then, right?" Jia Rong said with a smile.
