I heard the other party directly tell me his identity.
Li Chengqian was also a little surprised.
He looked at the lame man in front of him with confusion and said, "Do you know me?"
After hearing his admission, the lame man knelt on the ground without saying a word. ??
"Wu Yougou, the former Ninth Battalion of the Liangzhou Army and Commander of the Fourth Battalion, comes to see His Highness the King of Qin!"
Seeing his appearance and hearing his name, Li Chengqian's eyebrows couldn't help but lock together: "From the Liangzhou Army? And he's from the Fourth Formation of the Ninth Battalion?"
This number was the team that Li Chengqian led to kill in the Northeast.
It can be said that the vast majority of this team are veterans of many battles on the battlefield.
They all sweated and shed blood for the glory of the Tang Dynasty.
But now, look at this guy leading a group of bandits.
Li Chengqian's heart began to grow colder.
No need to look at anything else, just looking at Li Chengqian's expression, Wu Yougou felt guilty.
"Your Highness Haihan, Your Highness Haihan."
Wu Yougou said with fear on his face: "We were so ignorant that we didn't know that His Highness was coming. We have offended many people. I hope Your Highness will forgive me."
Looking down at him, Li Chengqian waved his hands impatiently and said, "Okay, let's get up first."
After hearing this, Wu Yougou Fang stood up from the ground.
His guilty conscience was already written on his face.
After all, the three words "Liangzhou Death" are, in the eyes of many people, a symbol of glory.
But after leaving the Liangzhou Army, he became like this. To put it bluntly, he was self-destructive.
Therefore, Wu Yougou inevitably felt a little inferior, especially in front of Li Chengqian, who was regarded as the God of War by Liangzhou soldiers.
Wu Yougou looked at Li Chengqian with an embarrassed face, but he did not dare to speak first.
Seeing his appearance, Li Chengqian raised his head slightly and said, "What's the point of making a living? Why do you have to do this ruthless business of robbing families? To be honest, you are really sorry for your background." "this……"
Wu Yougou couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said bluntly: "If there are other ways to earn a living and have enough to eat, I wouldn't want to do this."
"What's wrong?"
"Are there any people who starve to death these days?"
Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows and said: "All over the Tang Dynasty, land was being divided among cattle and sheep. Don't tell me that your family has no land."
In recent years, because of the existence of Li Chengqian, the Tang Dynasty treated the people very favorably, especially those who had soldiers in their families.
Not only were the fields divided, but money and food were also delivered to them every year on the anniversary of the founding of the Tang Dynasty.
But someone who comes from such a family actually tells himself that he has no other way of making a living.
Is this bullying him because he has been living in Chang'an for a long time and doesn't know what's going on outside?
But Wu Yougou smiled even more bitterly: "Your Highness, to tell you the truth, we all do have land."
Hearing this, Li Chengqian became angry.
He pointed at Wu Yougou and said: "Since you have land and land, why do you still come out to do this unscrupulous business?"
"Yes, I admit that you are a meritorious official of the Tang Dynasty. You have shed blood for the Tang Dynasty."
"But, can this be the reason for your misbehavior?"
Li Chengqian became more and more anxious the more he spoke, and in the end he was directly pointing at Wu Yougou's face and scolding him.
But Wu Yougou didn't refute a word. He just stood there and allowed Li Chengqian to scold him in various ways.
At this time, the boy next to him couldn't stand it anymore.
He directly blocked Wu Yougou's approach, then slapped Li Chengqian's hand away and said urgently: "You are not allowed to scold Uncle Wu like that!"
"Xiaowu, don't be rude!"
Wu Yougou hurriedly scolded him.
Then, he looked directly at Li Chengqian and said: "Your Highness,
Xiaowu is still young, so you must not be as familiar with him."
Before Li Chengqian could speak, Xiao Wu spoke up: "Uncle Wu, why do you respect such a person who doesn't know right from wrong?"
The next moment, he didn't forget to turn around and taunt Li Chengqian: "What kind of bullshit, Your Highness, bah, you're just a bullshit who doesn't understand, he's not as good as me."
"Xiaowu!"
Wu Yougou pulled the young man to his side, then raised his hand and slapped him in the face. ??
"Who gave you the courage to talk nonsense in front of His Highness?"
Wu Yougou directly faced Li Chengqian and knelt on his knees and said: "Your Highness, I am five years young and don't understand the rules. Your Highness Haihan."
"Okay, I don't want to hear this nonsense anymore."
"And I don't have the intention to argue with him."
Li Chengqian glanced at the young man, then looked at Wu Yougou and said, "But from what he said, if you bring these people to become bandits, is it possible that there is something unspeakable about it?"
"this……"
Wu Yougou hesitated.
"If you have something to say, just say it."
Li Chengqian was a little impatient.
"Since Your Highness wants to hear it, then I will tell you."
"Your Highness is right, the whole country has been divided into fields, and we are no exception."
"It's just that Your Highness doesn't know something."
"Our fields on Longyou Road are different from other places."
"Let's not talk about them, just talk about myself."
Wu Yougou pointed at himself and said, "My family is allocated ten acres of land, but eight of those ten acres cannot be cultivated."
"For the other two acres that can be cultivated, it will be good if the annual harvest can prevent one person from starving to death for a whole year, let alone save enough food to save money."
"I don't want to hide anything from you, nor do I want to tell lies to you."
"To be honest, Your Highness, even a small child can be considered I have been with you for a long time, you took me to Tuyuhun, Northeast China, and even took my little one to see Chang'an City."
"How could I not know that as a soldier, the greatest goal in this life is to defend the country and the people, and the greatest honor is to fight and die for the country?"
Wu Yougou sighed softly: "I'm really desperate now. Otherwise, who would be willing to do this unscrupulous business?"
Hearing this, Li Chengqian was stunned.
Indeed, it is true that the Tang Dynasty divided the land.
He seemed to have been ignoring a question.
I just naively think that if people have land, they will have the capital to survive.
But he never thought that fields are different in every place.
Some places produce a lot of grain, and some places even produce no grain at all.
In that case, people will still be hungry and their lives will not improve even a little bit.
Li Chengqian looked around and saw that all the people in front of him were skinny and skinny.
Seeing this, he suddenly heaved a sigh of relief, raised his hand and patted Wu Yougou's shoulder and said: "If you don't find a better place to rob, how can this place be robbed? How many people can come here every day?"
"If the people in the village follow you, they will all starve to death."
"Go and ask people to bring pots and pans. We'll find a nice place later and I'll treat you to a nice meal."
Suddenly I heard Li Chengqian's words change.
Wu Yougou's face was full of surprise. He looked at Li Chengqian with confusion on his face.
"What? Are you afraid that I have made some kind of agreement with someone and want to deceive you all into one piece?"
Li Chengqian shook his head and smiled: "To be honest, I really don't have the time to deal with you. I just want to hear from you what this Longyou Road is like..."
"Okay, I'm too lazy to tell you all this nonsense."
Li Chengqian met Wu Yougou's eyes and said, "I just want to ask you, do you dare to come with me?"
