Chapter 108: Gan is a small soldier in the cottage
For several days in a row, Lin Jue and other newly recruited men were driven to build fortifications on the island. The lake bandits were obviously ready to be encircled and suppressed by officers and soldiers, so various arrows were being built almost all around the island. Tower fortresses and stone fortifications. Defense fortifications were built densely around the two main roads leading to the main stronghold. The natural and dangerous places were even more dangerous, and the gentle places also created steep terrain. It was really a step-by-step plan, and everything was ten thousand. The power of the husband is unstoppable.
Lin Jue, Ma Bin, Shen Tan and others, although it cannot be said that they are all pampered, but they have never done such hard work. Ma Bin, Shen Tan and others may be strong, but Lin Jue really can't bear it. It was really difficult for him to carry rocks and mud bags with his body. After a few days, Lin Jue was so tired that he didn't even want to move his fingers. Although Ma Bin, Shen Tan and others saw Lin Jue's hard work, they often went out of their way to help. How could he always help? After a few days, Lin felt that every part of his body was sore and painful. He really even wanted to die.
However, this is not the most terrible thing. The most terrible thing is that they were forced to build fortifications here, and there were special bandit soldiers supervising the work. They had no chance to escape, let alone see any copycats. The core people were waiting for an opportunity to implement the plan they had made before coming. At this time, there was no chance to move freely. As he was carrying the stone and carrying the soil, Lin Jue panted and stared at the spreading heights of the mountain road. The mist there was the mountain village. The core of the main stronghold is located. Unfortunately, although it can be seen, it cannot be reached physically. I can only look there from a distance and sigh.
Faced with this dilemma, Ma Bin, Shen Tan and others were helpless. The three of them got together to discuss in the middle of the night. Ma Bin complained and cursed, blaming Lin Jue for deceiving them, saying that he would have a way to plan after going to the mountain stronghold, but now he Trapped here. If this continues, not only will things not be done, but people will also be unable to escape. Do you think you will be a bandit here for the rest of your life? You even threatened to kill him and go down the mountain to escape.
Lin Jue patiently comforted Ma Bin and told him not to be impulsive. There is still time. There are still two months until the end of November, and there will eventually be a chance. Because they are newly recruited people, the Lake Bandits see If it is too tight, there will be opportunities to relax in a few days.
Ma Bin just vented his complaints, Lin Jue didn't care, and he was embarrassed. Besides, Lin Jue worked hard every day, and his small body was as tired as a dog and didn't say anything. He and Shen Tan actually felt quite happy in their hearts. I admire him. This young man has a strong mind and is not easily defeated. To be honest, Ma Bin has no idea in his heart, but he always thinks that Lin Jue must have an idea. I don't know why, but he feels like this.
A few days passed in a blink of an eye, and it had been more than ten days since I arrived on the island. The weather was getting colder every day, and the soil began to freeze at night. The work became more and more difficult, and my mood became more and more anxious. In this way The days seemed to have no end, and even Lin Jue felt that the chance was a little slim. Finally, on the first day of October, things took a turn for the better. A group of newcomers took the place of Lin Jue and others to do the best work. Lin Jue and others were assigned to the mountainside trails and organized into small teams to take charge of night patrols.
Although this is also an extremely hard job, in this kind of weather, we patrol from dark to dawn. The wind is strong at night on the lake and island, and it is really biting cold. However, compared with the previous encounters, it is completely different. .
The bad news is that Lin Jue, Ma Bin, Chen Tan and others have been assigned to different teams and no longer live together. They cannot discuss countermeasures at any time. Lin Jue himself is fine. He is just worried that without his reminder, Ma Will Bin and the others be able to endure it, and will they cause any trouble to reveal their flaws? The good news is that under this situation, Lin Jue has a lot of freedom of movement. Moreover, Lin Jue has already set his sights on his own patrol. The bandit team was in charge. This guy loved to eat and talk, and he had a straightforward temperament. Lin Jue thought that he could get more information from him.
Lin Jue launched an operation. In order to make it easier to carry when he came, the King of Liang gave Lin Jue a lot of gold leaves to sew into the corners of his clothes, which came in handy at this time. The bandits also had wages, and there were also brothels and taverns in the village. In order to meet the consumption needs of the bandits, the money was put to good use. Lin Jue was generous and bought wine and beef in the tavern in the village. At night, he took it out to follow him during a break between patrols. The bandits in the team ate and drank together, going back and forth. Within a few days, Lin Jue became the most popular person in the team.
When patrolling at night, Lin Jue didn't even need to hold up a torch. The bandit soldiers helped to light up the scene. The bandits' salary was not enough to support them in drinking and eating meat every day. When they met such a rich man who was willing to give, he naturally became acquainted with each other. He was holding and coaxing him, shouting "Brother, brother, brother" non-stop, as if Lin Jue was not a newcomer to the mountain, but rather like a brother who had known each other for many years.
Team leader Liu Dabao was extremely happy, and Lin Jue took special care of him. The wine he drank was the best in the village, and the beef he ate was fine tenderloin. As a team leader with a bigger butt, How had Liu Dabao ever enjoyed such treatment? He was naturally kind to Lin Jue, who in a short period of time became the number two figure in the team.
On the night of the sixth day of October, the weather was extremely cold. After the patrol team went on patrol, everyone was complaining and cursing. They couldn't wait to hide in a secret leeward place, and everyone was watching eagerly. Lin Jue certainly knew what they were looking forward to, so he took out the wine and meat he had brought with him and put them on the table. The lake bandits were immediately overjoyed and started to eat one after another.
Lin Jue pulled Liu Dabao behind the rocks aside, spread a square cloth on the withered grass, took out the wine gourd specially prepared for Liu Dabao, a large piece of braised beef and a roasted pheasant and placed them on the table.
Liu Dabao smiled from ear to ear. He looked at the fat chicken in front of him and said with a smile: "Brother Lin, how good is this? It's really embarrassing to ask you to spend money every day. Brothers, if you don't enjoy it, it will be in vain. I love you so much. If you enjoy it, there are some...hehe...somewhat..."
Lin Jue waved his hand and said with a smile: "Why did Captain say this? It is my honor, Lin, to make friends with you brothers. For some reason, my brothers felt that they were very close to each other since they first saw Captain. When we were outside, At that time, I had a life-and-death brother who looked similar to Liu Duizheng. Unfortunately, he died early. As soon as I came to the team that day and saw Duizheng, I felt very fond of him."'
Liu Dabao reached out and tore off a pheasant leg and put it in his mouth, saying with a vague smile: "So, it seems that you and I are really destined. To be honest, I also have a good impression of Brother Lin after meeting him.
I’m afraid this is called fate.”
Lin Jue felt sick in his heart and thought: What fate do I have with you? You are just coveting some money from me. He thought this in his heart, but he said something else in his mouth.
"Well, this is called feeling like an old friend at first sight. I'm really lucky. When I entered the village, Captain Liu was taking care of me, so that I wouldn't be bullied by others."
Liu Dabao raised his neck and took a sip of wine, wiped his mouth and said: "I didn't say anything, brother, whoever dares to bully you in the future, you will give me Liu Dabao's name. Who dares to bully the brothers that I, Liu Dabao, protect? By the way, who dares to bully you?"
Anyone who bullies my brother Liu Dabao is bullying me, bullying me is bullying Leader Li of the outpost camp, and bullying Leader Li is having trouble with the second boss. If the second boss gets angry, that person will lose his head."
Lin Jue nodded repeatedly, gave Liu Dabao a bowl of wine, and asked in a low voice: "Liu Duizheng, after my brother came to the village, he heard people talk about the reputation of the second village master every day, but he never saw the majesty of the second village master.
I don’t know the Second Village Master, and even if I meet him, I might not know it’s him. But I wonder what the Second Village Master looks like, does he look like a great hero?”
Liu Dabao chuckled and said: "What does it mean to look like a great hero? Isn't the Second Village Master like us, with two nostrils and one mouth? However, the Second Village Master is indeed a great hero. Let me tell you, who among the copycat villages
If you don’t dare to challenge the second village master, you are seeking death. The second village master is the god of this village, do you understand?”
Lin Jue frowned and was silent for a moment, then laughed in a low voice: "The second village master is so powerful, and Liu Duizheng is the second village master's man. It seems that the brothers are with the right person. But isn't there a big village master in the village? The second village master
If the Lord is like this, then wouldn’t the Lord of the Dazhai become an unparalleled hero?”
Liu Dabao almost choked with a sip of wine, wiped his mouth and laughed loudly: "Brother Lin, do you really know nothing? Didn't I just say that the second village master is the king in our village? You still don't understand.
What?"
Lin Jue asked in confusion: "What about the leader of the big village? From what you say, it seems that the leader of the big village is not as good as the leader of the second village?"
Liu Dabao shook his head and said with a smile: "It seems that you really don't know what's going on."
Lin Jue smiled and said: "I'm new here, what kind of inside story do you know? Come and think about it, brother, let's have a drink with you. Eat meat, eat meat, eat chicken, eat chicken. That... nothing is going on, the team is blindly following my brother
Let’s talk about the cottage. Brother, I don’t mean anything else. I’m just worried that if I offend the village owner in the future, wouldn’t it be a good idea? You have to know some of the taboos involved.”
Liu Dabao drank the wine, grabbed the beef and munched, nodded vaguely and said: "You are right, try not to offend if you can, but in fact it is not a big deal if you offend. It's okay. Let me tell you what's going on here.
Son."
Lin Jue was overjoyed and said, "Listen attentively."
