() As soon as Qin Xiaobai finished saying this, the scene suddenly became strange. Everyone looked at Dong Xi in surprise. Unexpectedly, Qin Xiaobai turned out to be his old friend.
There was a cold glint in Dong Xi's eyes, which was fleeting and well concealed so that no one could see it. However, Qin Xiaobai, who had insight, could see it very clearly, and with a thought in his heart, he knew that this would offend Dong Xi.
But whether he can be offended or not is a matter for later. The key now is that Qin Xiaobai saw that Dong Xi decided to cover up for him, because if Dong Xi wanted to expose him, he would not restrain the cold look in his eyes, and he felt relieved.
"Oh, it turns out to be Brother Qin. I miss you so much after not seeing him for a long time!" Sure enough, after Dong Xi suppressed the cold look in his eyes, he looked like he suddenly recognized Qin Xiaobai and greeted him warmly.
When Qin Xiaobai saw that it was just as he expected, the remaining half of his heart was relieved. Ran He also stepped forward and started talking to Dong Xi with pretended enthusiasm.
As a result, Wu Ba, Li Wei, and Gao Cao all looked at Hou Shisan with different expressions, especially Wu Ba. After being surprised, seeing this reversal, he immediately looked at Hou Shisan triumphantly.
See how he handles himself.
Hou Shisan's face changed, and finally he looked relieved, and he laughed loudly and said: "It turns out that he is an old friend of the second master. The flood has really destroyed the Dragon King Temple. Brother Qin, please don't worry about what happened just now. Wait for it."
When I return to the peak, I will definitely give you a generous gift to apologize."
Qin Xiaobai couldn't help but be slightly startled when he saw Hou Shisan being so arrogant and respectful at the same time. Originally, he just wanted Hou Shisan not to embarrass him and protect himself, but he didn't expect that Hou Shisan would even start to please and flatter him. Is the recruitment quota really there?
Is it such a big temptation?
If this is the case, Niu Fu only needs to agree to a few recruitment quotas for the bandits to cause the bandits to collapse. Why bother and go to such trouble to recruit him as an undercover agent?
But then I thought about it, firstly, not all bandits want to be recruited, take the Liangshan heroes as an example, we can get a glimpse of it. Secondly, bandits should not be gullible. In terms of safety, undercover agents installed by yourself are more reliable.
.Third Niu Fu didn’t understand the mentality of the Black Wind Bandit Yu who wanted to be recruited.
Fourth, the number of recruitment places is limited. How to deal with the bandits after recruitment is another trouble. The last and most critical point is that Qin Xiaobai and Niu Fu secretly discussed the details. Niu Fu once mentioned Zhang Xiu and asked Qin Xiaobai
Reporting intelligence allowed Zhang Xiu to accumulate military exploits, while Niu Fu gave Qin Xiaobai intelligence about his officers and soldiers, allowing Qin Xiaobai to increase his status among the bandits.
If this is the case, giving information to Qin Xiaobai's officers and soldiers and increasing his status among the bandits is to better obtain information about the bandits and lure them out of Black Wind Mountain to kill them all. Then let Zhang Xiu be upgraded.
What is the purpose?
There is only one possibility. Dong Zhuo's foundation is in Xiliang. However, after he became the governor of Hedong, no one in his power held a high position in Xiliang. This time has no intention of letting his foundation gradually diminish. This is something Dong Zhuo is not allowed to see.
The only way is to train our own people in Xiliang.
At the expense of all the bandits in the Black Wind Mountain, Zhang Xiu was raised to a high position in Xiliang, preserving and strengthening his foundation in Xiliang, and annihilating the Black Wind bandits, allowing the Qiang people to face the Xiliang army and make them fearful
heart, this is Dong Zhuo’s purpose,
If he wanted to recruit quotas in exchange for the Black Wind Bandits, the undercover agents would not be reliable and it would not be what he wanted if the bandits fell apart. The best way was to train people to be undercovers and annihilate the Black Wind Bandits in one fell swoop. Therefore, Qin
Only novices can be exploited.
Seeing Hou Shisan being so cowardly and respectful, Qin Xiaobai did not refuse and accepted it calmly. After all, the third master who occupied the second mountain had 500 powerful men who could fight against the bandits. There was no point in offending him.
Seeing that Qin Xiaobai refused to pursue the case, Hou Shisan smiled and wiped off the cold sweat and returned to his seat. Gao Cao tried his best to show his kindness to Qin Xiaobai. Li Wei didn't say anything and returned to his seat to sit down.
, Wu Ba had a proud look on his face. Qin Xiaobai, an old friend of the second leader, was on his mountain peak and formed an ally with him. His status has also risen. Who dares to look down on him in Wudu Peak?
After no one had any objections to Qin Xiaobai's move to Wudu Peak, Qin Xiaobai began to pay homage to the mountain priest, offer incense and drink wine. Everyone also officially recognized Qin Xiaobai's status. Because Wu Ba was the sixth head of the family, Qin Xiaobai
Xiaobai was a latecomer and became the head of Wudu Fengqi.
After Qin Xiaobai's mountain worship ceremony was completed, everyone sat down one after another. However, there was no seat for Qin Xiaobai. When Gao Cao saw this, he immediately offered his seat to Qin Xiaobai, and he asked his order to move another chair.
Come.
After this little episode, several maids came out of the inner hall, brought wine and food to everyone's small tables, and poured the wine for everyone themselves.
The second master then slowly said to the crowd, "Today we summon all the masters to come. In fact, it is the first master who issued the order to summon us to Tongtian Peak."
"Going to Tongtian Peak? Why?" Hou Shisan was drinking wine in a depressed mood. Hearing this, he was suddenly shocked and asked in confusion.
All the leaders also looked at Dong Xi in surprise and confusion. Qin Xiaobai looked at Wu Ba without knowing what was going on. Wu Ba explained to Qin Xiaobai in a low voice: "Although the Black Wind Bandits are one body, each one is on the top of the mountain.
, giving orders, the main peak is like the Zhou Dynasty, and the six peaks are like the princes. They all listen to the tune but not the announcement. Unless there is an invasion by a powerful enemy, the masters of the seven main peaks will only meet at the beginning of each month for a meeting to discuss.
It’s just the development direction of the Black Wind Bandits.”
"As for the other bandits, they have all left their own mountain peaks. There are even some bandits who, except for people from their own mountain peaks, do not know the bandits from other peaks of Heifeng Mountain. Now Master Hu suddenly summons us to the main peak of Heifeng Mountain.
, going up to Tongtian Peak is indeed very weird.”
Qin Xiaobai nodded after hearing this, expecting something big to happen in Heifeng Mountain, so he and many other leaders looked at the second leader, Dong Xi, to help people clear up his confusion.
"You don't need to worry. It's not an accident. The letter from the first master said that the peak masters of all the big and small peaks in Heifeng Mountain will gather in Heifeng Mountain." Dong Xi, the second master, saw everyone's eyes and knew what they were thinking.
I was worried that something had happened to Wudu Peak, so I confessed to everyone to eliminate the doubts of the leaders.
"Oh... Then what big thing happened? Why did everyone gather at Tongtian Main Peak?" After hearing this, everyone felt relieved, but then another question arose.
"You should all know that the Baima Qiang tribe has been in a fierce quarrel recently. Now the Baima Qiang tribe has sent a letter asking for help from Black Wind Mountain. The masters of the Seventh Main Peak believe that this matter is of great importance and must be discussed by many peak masters.
That's all." Dong Xi had already known that they would ask this question, and Feng Qingyun replied calmly and unhurriedly, without any of the clumsy manner in front of Wuwei Commandery.
Everyone knows about the Baima Qiang Rebellion, but only the Black Wind Mountain Bandits must know it, because the Black Wind Mountain Bandits have grown rapidly because of the Baima Qiang Rebellion, which has caused refugees to spread all over the place.
expanded rapidly.
But now it comes to a problem. Many bandit leaders and bandits in Heifeng Mountain had their families destroyed because of the Baima Qiang people, and they had no choice but to become bandits. Now that the Baima Qiang people are asking for help, whether they can be saved or not is a question.
If we want to save him, there will definitely be some among the bandits who will not work together as they wish, or even hold back and rebel.
If we don't save them, we will be in despair. Once Wuwei County wipes out the Baima Qiang tribe, they will be the Black Wind Bandits next. Such a difficult matter can only be decided by having all the bandit leaders gather at Tongtian Peak to discuss it together.
Everyone present was aware of it. Seeing that the matter had been conveyed, the second master asked everyone to return to their own peaks and follow him to the main peak of Tongtian in the morning.
All the masters said goodbye to the second master and retreated. After Hou Shisan came out of the hall, he promised Qin Xiaobai that he would immediately allocate a large amount of supplies to him before leaving.
Before leaving, Li Wei expressed to Qin Xiaobai that there might be opportunities for business cooperation. Gao Cao still looked like he was flattering and promised Qin Xiaobai that he would mobilize manpower to help him build a cottage.
Wu Ba was overjoyed to see that many of the leaders who had pressured him before were fawning over his allies. However, he saw Qin Xiaobai beside him with a bitter look on his face. He couldn't help but asked blankly: "Brother Qin, why are you so frowning?"
Not showing up?”
Qin Xiaobai ignored him and murmured: "It's over, it's over, it's over..."
He suddenly remembered something. Xiliang, Wuwei, and Zi Wenhe pretended to be a strong tribesman and knew how to hide their inferiority. Then there was only one person, Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe.
He found out that he had made a small calculation today. How could this top strategist of the Three Kingdoms, known as the "Poison Man", not make him stunned.
Of course, this shock was not due to Qin Xiaobai's sense of accomplishment. It was entirely out of fear. If this accidentally made the 'Poison Master' think about him, he was afraid that he would die without knowing how he died...
