Qin Xiaobai led more than ten cars of official grain and drove to the top of the main peak.
After Qin Xiaobai became the ‘Minister of Logistics Department’ on Wudu Peak, every bandit on Wudu Peak knew him. All the checkpoints on the main peak were unimpeded and he soon reached the top.
"The first master and the second master have important matters to discuss, and there are no visitors!" The leader of the gatekeeper at the main peak of Wudu saw a large group of chariots and horses approaching the summit. He couldn't help but yelled at first, asking them to go back.
But after taking a closer look, he found that it was Qin Xiaobai. He hurried over and smiled at Qin Xiaobai in a low voice: "It turns out to be the master Qin Qi. I didn't see you from so far away just now. Please forgive me, the second master."
I have already ordered you to go and inform him if you come."
"Then I'll bother you, brother." Qin Xiaobai smiled and stuffed a piece of silver into the hand of the leader. The so-called seventh-rank official of the prime minister's sect. Although Qin Xiaobai is the seventh head of Wudu Peak, he still has to be worldly.
Yes, last time he and Wu Ba came here, they didn't benefit the gatekeepers, but they left them alone for a long time.
As for Jia Xu knowing that he was coming to pay homage to the mountain, it was quite normal. After all, he was a new recruit in the army, so it was only natural for him to come to see the leader.
When the leader saw the money that Qin Xiaobai had given him, he was immediately frightened and afraid to accept it. He said, "The Seventh Master has an overview of the logistics affairs of our Wudu Peak and has given us the favor of the entire Wudu Peak. How can I dare to accept the money from the Seventh Master?
I'll go and report it here, little one."
As the leader said, he quickly ran into the stronghold, as if he was afraid that Qin Xiaobai would force him to give him the money.
Qin Xiaobai was naturally happy that others didn't want his money. Although it was unexpected that the gangster leader wouldn't accept his money, it was also reasonable.
But bandits don't care about favors, all they need is actual benefits.
In the past five days, he has spared no effort to provide logistical supplies for the bandits on Wudu Peak. This has made the bandits who have never had logistical supplies understand their taste, and they have almost reached the point where they can't live without him.
The invisible influence among the bandits' grassroots is even stronger than that of the second leader Jia Xu. Although Jia Xu represents their future, it is too elusive and distant after all. But Qin Xiaobai is different.
It's a real benefit.
When Qin Xiaobai spreads the logistics supply to the entire Wudu Peak, his influence will also spread to the entire Wudu Peak. Naturally, a mere gangster leader would not dare to offend this potential ability for a few taels of silver.
The entire Wudu Peak characters.
After waiting quietly for a while, the leader of the gang hurriedly ran out and reported to Qin Xiaobai that the boss had invited him.
Qin Xiaobai nodded and asked the leader to lead the way and lead the grain transport team into the village.
Wudu Peak, main peak, cottage hall.
There are two people sitting in the hall. One of them wears a turban on his head and a long Confucian gown, looking like a book publisher. He is none other than Jia Xu, the second head of the family. The other one is dressed in coarse linen clothes and a tiger robe, with eyes like copper bells and a tiger's back and waist.
, muscles bulging, it was Hu Cheer, the head of Wudu Peak, and the two were discussing secret matters in the hall.
General Ye Xiong captured Liang Xing as a hostage, so that the other leaders of Heifeng Mountain were afraid to attack by force, so they had to use negotiations to solve the problem. However, the negotiations continued for more than five days, but still failed. However, Ye Xiong became more and more aggressive and repeatedly launched troops.
, many small peaks in Fenghui Peak were conquered, and the territory they controlled became larger and larger.
None of this matters. The most important thing is that winter is about to begin, and there is not a lot of grain and grass stored in Heifeng Mountain. Because Wuwei County suppressed the Baima Qiang rebellion and banned the trade of grain and grass, merchants from around Heifeng Mountain were nowhere to be found.
No food or fodder can be robbed.
Fenghui Peak is the only exit to the north of Heifeng Mountain. In order to survive this winter, the seven peak masters of Heifeng Mountain have raised funds to purchase large quantities of grain and grass from some small Qiang tribes and stocked Fenghui Peak in preparation for winter.
The goods are transported to various parts of Black Wind Mountain.
But now that Ye Xiong occupies most of Fenghui Peak, and at the same time takes away the stored grain and grass, Heifeng Mountain will have a hard time this winter.
Now Hu Che'er is discussing the recruitment with Jia Xu to see if it can be brought forward, otherwise most of his brothers will starve to death. Even if he is recruited by then, his value will be reduced a lot.
Who is Jia Xu? He doesn't talk about planning for heaven or earth, but when it comes to planning for people's hearts, he is definitely the representative of the pinnacle of counselors in the Three Kingdoms. Even though he is still in the growth stage of his youth, he has already understood Hu Cheer's heart.
concerns.
Logically speaking, this was a good opportunity for him to escape, but Jia Xu had actually had countless opportunities to escape before this, but he never took action, because since he became the second master, he has managed domestic and military affairs for Hu Cheer.
By that time, I had already changed my original idea of simply protecting myself.
He now wants to train bandits and mediate military affairs to hone himself and familiarize himself with military life and things.
Because his ambition is to be the mastermind of a large force. If he doesn't understand the most basic principles, how can he talk about strategy? It's just talk on paper.
As a scholar, he had the opportunity to become familiar with military affairs, and with such an opportunity in front of him, he would not let it pass easily. In order to escape, he would have to wait at least until he was fully familiar with the basics of military affairs.
So Jia Xu told Hu Che'er that the east of the river was thousands of miles away, and that it would take at least several months to go back and forth. By then, most of his bandit brothers would still be dead or injured.
He also advised him not to worry. The official position given after recruitment was based on the value of sin and had nothing to do with the number of brothers under his command.
Although Jia Xu's words were not as eloquent as those of Zhengyi Su Qin, he could speak with eloquence and flourish everywhere, but he also hit the point with every word, which relieved Hu Che'er's worries and made him no longer worry.
At this time, Qin Xiaobai asked for an audience outside the village. Hu Cheer asked Jia Xu to go down first and summoned Qin Xiaobai.
After Qin Xiaobai entered the hall, he first performed the mountain worship ceremony, and then dedicated one hundred stones of official rations to Hu Che'er.
Hu Che'er was overjoyed. Qin Xiaobai's hundred stones of food and grass could solve his urgent need. If he saved some food, it would be enough for the bandits on the main peak for a month. Plus the food and grass he had originally hoarded, he might be able to survive the winter.
Hu Cheer couldn't put it down and touched the grain and grass. Suddenly he found the word "official" printed on it. He was shocked. After careful identification, he found that it was actually official grain. He hurriedly asked Qin Xiaobai about the origin of this grain and grass.
Qin Xiaobai then told Hu Che'er that he had robbed him when he entered Wudu Peak and passed through Xiaochi County. Between the lines of his words, he secretly revealed that Xiaochi County was poorly defended but had unusually abundant food and grass.
Hu Che'er was overjoyed after hearing this. He guessed that Wuwei County must have recruited troops from various counties and towns to suppress the Baima Qiang rebellion, leaving Xiaochi County defense empty.
When Xiaochi County was in town, Hu Che'er had long heard about its prosperity. Now that it has developed into a county town, there must be more money and food. At this time, when its military strength is empty, how can it not plunder?
A lot of truth.
Although these one hundred stones of food and grass could barely survive the winter on the main peak, other peaks in Wudu Mountain were short of food and grass. If he did not provide relief, he would definitely lose his trust among the bandits and find it difficult to gain a foothold.
Moreover, Dong Xi just said that the official position given after recruitment depends on the crime value. This massive robbery will definitely increase the crime value, which will also be of great benefit to his future career.
Seeing that Qin Xiaobai's rebellion value had reached the crime value, he was even more convinced of his statement, so he sent an order to all the leaders of Wudu Peak to prepare their troops and prepare to attack Xiaochi County with him in the evening.
Qin Xiaobai accepted the order and was overjoyed. The temptation was successful. Now he was about to contact Niu Fu and trick Hu Che'er hard. He seemed to have seen the "junior" with a quota of 500 soldiers and was waving to him...
