In the hearts of the people in southern Xinjiang, there is never any gratitude or belief. In order to survive, they will do whatever it takes...
Not to mention, the Yanbei Army gave them food, and they also paid the price. It was a fair deal with each other. The Yanbei Army was their enemy. To say that the Yanbei Army was kind to them, they owed the Yanbei Army crowd, they
It is not recognized.
The general of Southern Xinjiang had made a decision in his mind and wanted to discuss with Nan Jinzhao to get the gunpowder recipe from Beichen Tianque in exchange for a sum of grain and a piece of territory, but...
These are just his ideas. Whether they can be realized and what they will be like depends on the specific operations.
Now, the most important thing for them is food. Even if their deal with Beichen Tianque is successful, Beichen Tianque will not be able to transport food in a short time. They still have to make deals with Yan Beijun to tide over the current difficulties.
Exchanging food is something that happens once and becomes familiar twice. Wu Er went to exchange it once before, so now this important task is naturally assigned to him.
Of course, out of caution and distrust of Wu Er, the general arranged for Brother Niu to accompany them in order to supervise them.
Brother Niu got the benefit last time and was very active. In order to reassure the general, he kept showing his loyalty in front of the general. He also said that this time they would use the least gunpowder in exchange for the most food, at least better than the first one.
Reply more often to reassure the general.
"Okay, okay, when you come back, I will make you the deputy general." The general was very satisfied after hearing Brother Niu's words, patted him on the shoulder, and promised in public.
With these words, Brother Niu became even more excited and active. Without Wu Er's urging, he hurriedly found Wu Er and asked Wu Er to make arrangements. They would leave tonight.
Wu Er had just returned from delivering food. The group had cooked all day yesterday, and they had not recovered yet today. They had to do it again in the evening. This was definitely a torture.
Wu Er refused without thinking: "Brother Niu, it's really not possible. Our brothers are all exhausted. Look at our feet. They are full of blisters and rotten. We can't walk at all."
Brother Niu was not tired because he had been resting in place during the food exchange and did not suffer at all. The same was not true for Wu Er and others. They were running back and forth without even taking a good rest.
Moreover, Wu Er did not think that Yanbei Army would exchange food for them so frequently.
Yes, Yan Beijun is kind compared to them, but they are just kind and not stupid. You can't regard their kindness as being easy to bully.
Now, it is obvious that they have enough food to last for a while, and they will not be so short of food that they have to replace it immediately without taking a breather.
The reason for exchanging food so frequently is that everyone knows there is something wrong, and Yan Beijun will exchange it for them. Moreover, Brother Niu also said in public that the next time he exchanges food, he will get more food than this time.
Humph, the last time Yan Bei's army didn't understand the situation clearly and needed some gunpowder to defend themselves, that's why they gave them so much food. Now...
It goes without saying that Yanbei's spies must have figured out their situation clearly. Under such circumstances, if you are willing to exchange food for them, it is a noble character, but if you are not willing to exchange food for them, it is normal.
Wu Er just doesn't understand. Why do these people take it for granted and take it for granted that everything will depend on their will?
Wu Er refused without thinking, which annoyed Brother Niu. He looked at Wu Er with a sneer: "Wu Er, do you think the general values you and you are just a nobody? This time you come back in exchange for food.
Did you see that the general said he promoted you? Do you think that I can't survive without you? Wu Er, let me tell you, taking you to exchange for food is because I think highly of you. I can do it without you.
"
The last time the food exchange went so smoothly, Brother Niu didn't think it would be difficult to exchange gunpowder for food. When Wu Er refused, he ran to find someone else.
Could it be that Wu Er thought that he would never be able to change his life without him, right?
Brother Niu kicked Wu Er angrily, but Wu Er didn't resist and suffered silently...
Wu Er's brothers couldn't bear it and wanted to rush forward. Brother Niu was so frightened that his face turned pale. But as soon as they moved, Wu Er caught them: "Don't be impulsive, I'm fine."
When Brother Niu saw this, he suddenly felt emboldened and yelled bluffingly: "You, what are you doing? You want to fight, right? You forgot that this is in the military? Fighting is against military regulations."
"Brother Wu Er, look at this man..." Wu Er's brothers were extremely angry, but Wu Er didn't speak. He just stopped them and shook his head at them...
There is no need to argue with a villain like Brother Niu. Such people do not live long and do not need anyone to take action. They can even kill themselves if they do it themselves.
Wu Er was big-hearted, but Brother Niu was not. He was so angry at Wu Er and others that he spat heavily: "Bah, you are a bunch of mud-legged people, they really think you are a person."
"I won't let you exchange for food, so what if you have the ability! You all don't know how good you are, and you think you are so capable. If it weren't for gunpowder, you think you can exchange for food. Look at you
You are so poor, and the Yanbei Army will exchange food for you, do you think it is just because of your ability?"
"Don't be so self-righteous. You are all as stupid as dogs. You still want to be promoted and rich, but you don't want to show off your doglike behavior."
"People like you will never achieve anything in your life. They can only be like dogs. When you bark nicely, I'll give you a bone when I'm in a good mood. If I'm in a bad mood, I'll kick you to death. It's all easy."
…”
"You son of a bitch, you..." Wu Er's brothers couldn't help but pushed Wu Er away, raised their fists and hit Brother Niu.
"You, you, you, what are you going to do?" Brother Niu jumped up in fright, and did not dare to stay where he was. As if there was a fire burning behind his back, he jumped up and ran out...
Behind him, the violent curses of Wu Er's brothers could be heard: "Brother Wu Er, why are you stopping me from killing that bastard?"
After seeing the violent side of those around Wu Er, Brother Niu didn't want to cooperate with Wu Er anymore. He found a group of people he was familiar with that night and organized a thousand people to push the same amount of gunpowder as last time.
, quietly left the camp, preparing to exchange for food...
As soon as their group left, Wu Er received the news. Wu Er's brothers were angry: "Brother Wu Er, let them go like this? If they come back in exchange for food, we will have no place to stand."
"Brother Wu, we have to teach them a lesson. We can't let them step on us to get to the top. We found the way to exchange food."
A group of people are talking to each other, hoping to screw up this food exchange. As for whether they will starve after screwing up, they don't care.
Anyway, with Brother Wu here, they are not afraid.
Wu Er's brothers were extremely angry, but Wu Er was very calm. When Brother Niu left with gunpowder, he even stood outside the camp and watched them go...
No matter what Mr. Niu's background is, it's only in southern Xinjiang.
He believed that Yan Beijun would teach him how to behave. (To be continued)
