Chapter 430 Waste Utilization: Cai Laoliu’s Innate Skills (Third Update)
He Zhizhou was standing at the top of the city with the rebel general Zhu Dayou, looking at the direction in which General Zhu Gui and others were leaving.
If Zhu Da is over forty, can he be much older than Zhu Gui, who is in his early thirties?
Because he was a distant relative of the Zhu family, naturally, his official position could not be compared with that of Zhu Gui, who had the same grandfather as Zhu Meng.
This made Zhu Dayou, who thought he had the courage to deal with the two Zhu Gui's absentees, quite angry, but he was helpless.
Although there was nothing he could do about it, it did not mean that Zhu Dayou could not express his own thoughts.
"Hmph! As a coach, you should go to the center of the town and make arrangements from there. However, Zhu Gui has made some small contributions and has no intention of risking his own life."
"When I turn around, I will definitely ask the King of Wu to impeach him."
He Zhizhou, who was looking up into the distance, heard Zhu Dayou's reasonable analysis and nodded consciously.
"It seems that He Zhizhou also thinks what I said makes sense..."
Hearing this, Hezhouzhou Shengsheng, who had just surrendered and became a member of the Zhu family's rebels, was frightened and quickly shook his head wildly.
But after seeing Zhu Dayou's bulging eyeballs and the unkind face written all over his face, He Zhizhou bowed to the wrong person with a mournful face.
"The general's words are reasonable, so if the general does so, he may have his own considerations, which can't be guessed by Dongguan."
After hearing Na He Xini's perfunctory words, Zhu Dayou snorted, forget it, let the coward go for now.
I really hope that Zhu Gui, who met a group of officers and soldiers disguised as private salt dealers, would be killed without leaving a trace.
Only in this way, may the king be able to become famous, and the selection of officials should not be based on distance or closeness, but should be based on talent and strategy as a prerequisite...
Just as the two of them were anxiously waiting for the return of General Zhu Gui and his troops after their victory.
Some sharp-eyed soldiers began to point and shout in the distance, and He Zhizhou and Na Zhu Dayou looked towards the south at the same time.
Then I saw a fast horse galloping towards that direction.
He Zhizhou breathed a sigh of relief and smiled flatteringly at Zhu Dayou beside him.
"Presumably General Zhu has recruited the gang of private salt dealers and sent people back to report the good news."
"That's right, let me take another look..." He saw Zhu Dayou's face sinking like water, raising his legs and pointing forward.
He Zhizhou raised his eyes in confusion and looked into the distance, only then did he realize that the dozen riders on fast horses were frequently looking back, whipping their horses from time to time, and heading towards the east of the city.
It's not like he came to announce the good news, it's like he came to announce the funeral of a defeated general.
#####
He Zhizhou stared blankly at the five hundred troops of General Zhu Gui who had left Jiaxing City with great fanfare half an hour ago.
As soon as it was clear, less than half of the remaining defeated soldiers in the east fled back to the city.
And if they were behind Li Xu, at least nearly a thousand men and horses would come to cover them up.
If the city gate is not closed in time, at this moment, Jiaxing City will be in ruins.
That made He Zhizhou secretly happy, after all, Mingyue had just surrendered to King Wu.
You can't change three protagonists in a row in one day, right? Think about Lu Bu, no matter how you change the protagonist, there will be a cooldown CD, measured in years.
Looking at the strong defenses of Jiaxing City in the distance, there is a closed city gate.
After the city gate had been closed, it was quite common to see the broken troops fleeing along the moat towards other city gates.
Fang Qifu, who had already broken his leg in a hurry, inserted the iron whip in his leg back into the sharp edge, gasped with regret, and fell to the ground.
It was just a small difference. Unexpectedly, those Zhu family rebels were unable to fight and were the first to escape.
General Zhu Gui finally fled back outside the city. Even though he was wrapped in iron armor, he was still hit by several arrows, one of which even pierced his thigh.
Although all the arrows had been removed and treated, Zhu Gui was still lying on the door panel, dying.
With a livid face, Zhu Dayou looked at the general lying on the door panel, and his eyes swept over the defeated army that had lost all morale.
"Commander, where is General He? Why don't you see him?"
"General He is dead..."
Zhu Gui felt chills all over when he thought of General He right in front of his eyes, shot through his face by an arrow and refusing to close his eyes.
But at this moment, when I think about the number of thieves who came out when I was in an ambush, the number is definitely more than one or two thousand.
I really wonder if there are such a large and large number of private salt dealers in Xiuzhou. They have already conquered the city of Xiuzhou, and it would be their turn to get the old Zhu family.
Of course, Zhu Gui would not be stupid enough to say that he had fallen into the trap, but would just go along with the situation and directly put the blame on General He.
"Damn officers and soldiers, pretending to be private salt dealers, luring me out of the city.
That idiot He Biao couldn't see it, and he was trapped in a tight siege without even realizing it.
Fortunately, I was smart and escaped in time, so I escaped..."
"Come from the east, please help me, Uncle Seven, to defend the city, and don't let those officers and soldiers look for opportunities to seize the city."
After arriving from the east, Zhu Gui returned to his government office to recuperate from his injuries. Naturally, he did not forget to ask for help from Suzhou.
He said that there were five to six thousand officials and rearguards coming to cover up Xiuzhou, intending to recapture Xiuzhou. Although he was extremely brave, he was still outnumbered. He asked Suzhou to send reinforcements quickly to rescue him.

"He said, senior brother, he really wants to write a letter of war again?"
Cai Laoliu asked in displeasure when he saw his senior brother Gao Zhang spreading rice paper for him with a smile and gesturing for him to start writing quickly.
"Am I just afraid that the Zhu family rebels will be provoked? With the few people we have now, I'm afraid we'll all eat the wrong recipe."
Hearing those words, Tong Zhisheng, who was wiping his sword at the side, suddenly became unhappy and glared viciously at Cai Laoliu, who was greedy for life and afraid of death.
"If they dare to come, what will they be afraid of when Sajia is here?!"
"Okay, okay, you two, don't make trouble. Junior brother, I will hurry up and use my gifted writing style to write a letter of challenge, so that he can send it to someone later."
Gao Zhang couldn't help but rolled his eyes, but he took the overall situation into consideration and was too lazy to argue with those two evil beasts.
After hearing his senior brother's words about Ji Ji's talent in writing, Cai Laoliu couldn't help but glow, not to mention anything else, at least in terms of writing a letter of war.
Cai Laoliu believed that no one could deny his bad legs. Even his senior brother Gao Zhang, who was a child prodigy and the number one scholar, was not qualified to stand shoulder to shoulder with him.
"...Okay, can I ask you, senior brother? I really provoked the Zhu family rebels later, so don't use him to topple the tank."
"Don't worry, if you let me, my junior brother, take over the tank, he will be uglier than me and fatter than me."
Tong Zhisheng next to him trembled in his legs and almost got a bloody wound on himself.
When Cai Laoliu heard this, he suddenly felt very evil and raised his head with a black line on his face.
Gao Zhang met Cai Laoliu's begging to be eaten with a look of surprise on his face.
"Junior brother, do I hope that he will still be more handsome and thinner than me after he lets me jack the tank?"
