He asked back: "What? You don't want to accept my favor?"
Shen Tang shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, I just thought... Captain Yang would never forgive me. After all, I have a clear conscience about those things before, but from our standpoint, it's okay for Captain Yang to always hate me. understand……"
Captain Yang was choked by what she said, and his old face darkened: "I am that kind of villain who doesn't distinguish between grudges and grudges, and has no magnanimity?"
How dare Shen Tang say "yes"?
She smiled and said: "Of course Captain Yang is not."
It's just that with Shen Tang's criminal record here, Captain Yang doesn't believe her bullshit and will only listen to her words no matter how nice they sound.
Although Duwei Yang took the initiative to mention it, Shen Tang had no intention of actually asking him to do so. Regardless of whether these "old friendships" were real friendships or friendships made for profit, Duwei Yang was no longer powerful now, he was just a person without An ordinary middle-aged man who relies on him.
If he really abandons his old face and comes to ask for help, it's hard to say what kind of treatment he will get...
It's better to be shut out.
How can you bear the feeling of being ridiculed and given something as a charity?
Captain Yang fell into his current situation just to defend Xiao City. Thinking of this, Shen Tang would not let him touch such a nail.
She hasn't reached that point yet.
On the day of the farewell banquet.
Everyone was still drinking, and Shen Tang was still drinking tea.
While they were drinking heavily, Wu Xian, the leader of the alliance, said something heartfelt to her affectionately, and in front of everyone, he asked his general Zhao Feng to go over and help Shen Tang repay the favor. After hearing this, everyone in the alliance army was stunned again. Praising words such as "the leader of the alliance is highly righteous".
Both the spotlight and fame were taken away by Wu Xianmeng.
Everyone praised him for doing this for his brothers. He was extremely benevolent. His brothers could not be better than him. No one mentioned that He Yin was a dragon in a tiger's den. Although this was what Shen Tang asked for, but looking at the leader Wu Xian's Smiley face, she had a smile on her face.
As for the heart?
Gu Chi was forced to update his curse vocabulary again.
Everyone in the Alliance army was drunk and staggering.
Shen Tang felt that he was almost drunk and stood up to say goodbye.
After entering the camp, I was about to put on my clothes and go to bed.
Suddenly he opened his eyes.
"It's so late at night, why aren't Xiaofang still asleep?"
Not only did she not sleep, but she also threw stones at her tent?
Zhai Le did not answer directly, but took her shoulder and said, "Let's go, brother Shen, don't sleep. Let's go have a drink too."
Shen Tang was pushed away by him, and when she was about to yell, Zhai Le covered her mouth. She could only whisper: "I still want to sleep."
Zhai Le said: "Aren't you still asleep?"
Shen Tang rolled his eyes: "If you don't disturb me, will I be awake?"
The so-called asking her to have a drink is just for free.
Shen Tang has already seen through this Jiu Mengzi.
Zhai Le smiled shamelessly and did not refute.
Finally, the two of them climbed to the roof of a house that had not been burned clean. Zhai Le had already prepared and handed over an empty wine bag without warning. Shen Tang rolled her eyes and filled it up for him.
Zhai Le took a satisfied sip and praised: "Good wine!"
Shen Tang teased him.
"Isn't it good wine that makes you miss me so much?"
Zhai Le raised his head and took a big sip, with an afterthought look on his face.
After thinking about it, he drooped his eyebrows and shook his head with some regret: "It's a pity, I don't know if I will be able to drink it in the future."
After saying that, he leaned back.
Lie on your back on the roof.
As long as he doesn't lower his head and just looks at the bright moon in the sky, he really has the illusion that the years are quiet and things are stable. But he knows that no matter how quiet and peaceful the night scene is, if he lowers his head to look at the messy inner city, he will be separated from the illusion in an instant. , return to reality.
Shen Tang didn't want to lie down and watch the night view.
It is difficult to wash the clothes if they are dirty.
She leaned back with her hands on her hands and admired the moonlight.
Ask Zhai Le: "So fast?"
Shen Tang knew early on that Zhai Le and he were not from the same group. He and his cousin Zhai Huan would return to the Southeast Shen Kingdom sooner or later, but he did not expect that this day would come so quickly. In the current environment, it was impossible for the two of them to separate. That's for life.
Zhai Le put one hand behind his head and took a sip of wine.
He half-squinted his brilliant peach blossom eyes with satisfaction and said with a hearty smile: "It's not that fast. If the incident in Xiaocheng hadn't happened, my brother and I might have set off back to Shen Kingdom long ago."
As a brave warrior, he recovered quickly from his injuries. But Brother Shen had not yet set his feet, and it was not good for him and his cousin Zhai Huan to leave at this juncture, so they stayed to help as much as they could. Now Shen Tang has to take people there He Yin, he can go back to his cousin with peace of mind.
only--
"This is a farewell, I don't know when we will meet again."
Zhai Le is not as rational as his cousin Zhai Huan.
He and Shen Tang had a close friendship, fought side by side, and had similar temperaments. It was really uncomfortable to be separated so suddenly.
He thought about it, tossing and turning and unable to sleep, so he decided to get up and go out with Brother Shen to have a drink and say goodbye properly.
"A bright moon shines on idle people in two places. As long as we live together under the same sky, we will definitely meet again." The slightly sad atmosphere made Shen Tang also want to drink, but she was worried that she would go crazy when she was drunk, so she forcibly suppressed it. , "Why should you and I be sad?"
Zhai Le thought about the same truth, pointed at the bright moon, and said boldly: "When brother and I have settled the southeast, I will invite you to have a drink. I will be the host then, and you will not come back until you are drunk!"
Shen Tang was surprised when she heard this. She had known Zhai Le for many days, but the latter's usual performance was not sharp.
Either he is hot-blooded and innocent, or he is cheerful and energetic, always carrying the air of a young boy who has not grown up, but his words just now were full of vigor!
The loser does not lose the formation!
Shen Tang also answered Zhai Le with a smile.
"Hahaha, then your hands and feet should be faster."
Zhai Le asked in confusion: "Why?"
Shen Tang waved his hand: "Because I want to pacify the four directions."
To brag, brag louder.
Where is enough to pacify the southeast?
Zhai Le did not take her words seriously, but teased her angrily: "Brother Shen, Brother Shen, you have great ambitions, and Zhai feels ashamed! In this case, when you and I confront each other in the future, don't miss our old friendship! You and I have a real sword fight!"
Without waiting for Shen Tang's reply, he frowned and muttered: "Oh, I have to practice hard in seclusion when I go back, but I can't lose badly."
He is no match for Brother Shen now. Although his potential has not been fully explored, Brother Shen is still young and will still grow. If they really meet him, he has almost no chance of winning. Shen Tang replied: "It's easy to say, no matter what." No mercy."
Zhai Le was sad for a while, then smiled again.
"Okay, you and I can encourage each other!"
Shen Tang high-fived him happily.
"mutual encouragement!"
Without his cousin Zhai Huan to restrict him from drinking, Zhai Le drank to his heart's content that night and was completely drunk by the end.
He hugged the pillar and cried loudly like a child. While crying, he said: "Brother Shen, Brother Shen, what will I do if I leave you? There is no more fine wine in the world that I can drink..."
Shen Tang, standing on one side: "..."
Why come here to say goodbye?
This guy is just here for free drinking!
Finally, Zhai Le and a large section of the pillar that he was hugging were dragged back to the camp and handed over to Zhai Huan, who had a dark complexion. Zhai Huan turned away in shame. This was the first time he had seen him. That my cousin was so drunk.
Shen Tang said: "Xiaofang will be returned to you."
Zhai Huan took over his cousin who was not living up to expectations.
He looked unhappy and said, "I'm sorry to trouble Mr. Shen."
"It's not troublesome, Xiaofang is also a sweetheart."
Shen Tang said good things for Zhai Le, but Zhai Le was holding back, holding the pillar and shouting "Brother Shen, fill up the wine bag", which made Zhai Huan's face darken again. Shen Tang looked at the sky and saw that the sky was still dark. Da Liang, smelling faintly of alcohol, returned to the camp to catch up on some sleep.
Zhai Le didn't wake up until noon because of his hangover.
Shen Tang's things have almost been packed.
Just as Gu Chi was worried, not every one of the three to four thousand old, weak, women and children was willing to leave their hometown. In the end, only about 1,800 people were willing to leave their homeland in ruins. Faced with this result, Shen Tang had no choice but to respect it. They choose.
Order all the food, grass, people and horses.
Prepare to leave when the sun is right.
Zhai Le woke up drunk and washed up hastily.
Leader Wu Xian and Gu Ren came to see them off in person. Whether it was true or false, Shen Tang accepted the sentiment and rode on the back of a flashy motorcycle. He clasped his fists and said to the two of them: "The green mountains will not change, and the green water will flow forever. Brother Wu, Gu Sir, you two will meet again someday."
Leader Wu Xian returned the courtesy and said: "Goodbye."
Gu Ren also said: "Goodbye."
Next to him was Shao Chong, who looked quite thin.
In order to suppress the poison in his body, he suffered a lot, but overall his energy and energy were good, and he also learned to hold fists like Gu Ren.
"Goodbye!"
Shen Tang held the reins tied around the neck of the motorcycle with one hand, controlled it to change direction, waved his hand and said: "Let's set off!"
After walking for a while, we reached the intersection of the official road.
Brother Zhai Huan also formally bid farewell to Shen Tang.
Zhai Huan also imitated Shen Tang's words and said with a hearty smile: "The green mountains will not change and the green water will flow forever. Brother Shen, see you in the future!"
Shen Tang said: "Goodbye."
The two of them said goodbye to Qishan and the others one by one.
They raised their whips and urged their horses to drive in the other direction. The two of them became smaller and smaller, turning into small dots and disappearing among the mountains and dense forests.
Shen Tang sighed and turned to look at Qishan and the others.
"Let's go too!"
"Yes, lord."
Because there were more than 1,800 old, weak, women and children in the team, the march was not very fast. Fortunately, the nearby rebels had already evacuated Sibao County, and Zhao Feng also had his own private troops of No. 1,000.
This lineup is not afraid of bandits blocking the way.
Occasionally you can hear the piglets chirping.
Yes, the piglets haven't finished eating yet.
Shen Tang smiled and said, "I'll raise a few more if I have the chance."
When a good day comes, kill it to add some oil and water.
Qi Shan said with a dark face: "Master, do you still want to raise me?"
Shen Tang showed an expression of "I am proud to raise pigs": "What's wrong with raising pigs? Can people live without eating or eating meat?"
Qishan: "..."
He is not against pig farming.
He was against Shen Tang's decision to slaughter pigs with his own hands.
Wherever the blade passes, not a single egg is left behind...
Can these words be heard?
Gu Chi: "..."
Because the team was not strong enough and there were many people, we could only walk on the main road, rest for two hours and eat some dry food to replenish our strength.
At this time, Shen Tang would quietly disappear for a while and fill the empty bamboo basket with big cakes...
The food and fodder they carry is limited.
Save if you can.
If you meet other refugees on the way, you can accept those who are willing to follow them - but once they heard that they were going to Heyin, very few of them stayed. Firstly, the journey was long, and secondly, the place was chaotic.
The desolate and miserable scenery along the road made Shen Tang feel very unhappy.
I kept going like this for more than half a month.
"After passing this boundary monument, we will leave Sibao County." Chu Yao sat on his horse and looked behind him in the distance, filled with emotion. Unknowingly, he had lived in Sibao County for five or six years and was also restrained for five or six years. , the darkest valley of life was also spent here.
As long as he can leave Sibao County, his life can be freed from this suffocating imprisonment - Chu Yao has always believed that one day he will spread his wings and fly high, breaking free from the invisible shackles!
And, just today!
Shen Tang glanced at the golden crow hanging above his head.
Said: "Let everyone stop and have a rest."
As long as conditions permit, she will not force herself to move quickly.
She felt her butt hurt even while riding a motorcycle, not to mention that ordinary people and soldiers walked on two legs, and she had countless blisters on her feet. There was a stream nearby, which was just a good supplement.
Zhao Feng sent a message to the soldiers to go down and settle the people.
The few remaining people got together and calculated how many days it would take to reach Heyin, and planned how to take control of Heyin.
As mentioned before, the people in Heyin are fierce, and almost all of them are evil. Leader Wu Xian finds it difficult. He can either use rice grains to hit these evil bandits and make them put down their butcher knives and surrender, or use heavy troops to clear them up and kill them. They are afraid of killing!
Shen Tang did not have the conditions to operate either approach.
This is what Qi Shan and others have been worried about these days.
Recruiting troops along the way?
How can a group of inexperienced people stand a chance of winning when they encounter bandits who are ruthless in killing people? In the end, it is not advisable to waste financial, material, and energy.
Finally a consensus was reached.
There is a saying in the Military Book: Because food is given to the enemy.
Why don't they follow suit and learn to do it?
【Because people are enemies】
Cannibalize the enemy step by step to expand yourself, and then take over in one fell swoop.
Zhao Feng didn't have any objections to this.
He is good at killing bandits, he is already good at it.
Even half of the more than a thousand private tribes under his account had fallen into bandits, and they were all conquered by him one by one.
Shen Tang chewed the big cake and said, "This is feasible."
The situation in Heyin is chaotic, and the power struggle is fierce. Shen Tang, a person who came down from the air, wants a piece of the pie. Without a strong enough fist and enough manpower, how can the local snake subdue her?
Blacksmith need its own hardware.
She asked again: "Where do we start?"
Shen Tang has always been a man of action and does what he says.
Lately I'm either on the road or on the road.
She was so idle that her bones became stiff.
Pray for kindness and roll up the map.
"There's no rush, just make some plans along the way."
It's not that he doesn't want to make a plan now.
The situation on Ha Yin's side is really unclear.
Only when we arrived at the place did we know the specific situation.
Shen Tang shook off the cake foam.
After eating and drinking enough, prepare to close your eyes and rest for a while.
At this time, I heard Lin Feng and Sa Yazi running over. She said: "Langjun, Langjun, fish out someone from the water."
It's not uncommon to find people in the water.
There were frequent battles everywhere, and the enemy had no time to bury the corpses in the ground, either throwing them anywhere or into the water.
Lin Feng saw a lot along the way.
This time I was so surprised because this person was fished out of the water and she was alive!
