The dredging of the Zhengbai Canal went smoothly beyond imagination, and after the first celebration ceremony was held, Qin Jin quickly shifted his attention to the situation in Huangfu Ke and Tongguan.

Huangfu Ke was more unscrupulous than half a month ago, and outrageous things happened from time to time, as if he was sure that the Shenwu Army would not dare to be too embarrassed, and even robbed an unplanned grain transportation team. Fortunately, the grain transported by this grain transport team was supplied to the river engineering battalion, and the river workers of the river engineering battalion have endured hardships and endured hard work more than ever since they were armed with their minds, and they did not cause any disturbance or dissatisfaction. Even a little anxiety was quickly digested within it.

If the looted grain belonged to the Shenwu Army, Qin Jin was sure that these people would definitely go on a "strike".

According to the agreement reached between the Shenwu Army and Huangfu Ke, at the beginning of each month, the Shenwu Army would send special personnel to escort grain and grass for the Pujin rebels to "rob". However, Huang Fu Ke is now openly breaking the contract, which is tolerable or unbearable.

Lu Qi and Du Fu both persuaded Qin Jin that they could no longer indulge Huang Fu Ke like this, otherwise this person might do something out of the ordinary.

However, Qin Jin did not listen to the advice of these two people, he wanted to make Huangfu Ke more determined and proud, so as to paralyze this person's vigilance, and also indirectly create favorable conditions for Pei Jing to implement the plan.

As long as Pei Jing succeeds in one blow, at that time, the Shenwu Army will be able to turn its face as much as it wants, and Huangfu Ke will have to bear it one by one.

……

Pujin Pass, Huang Fu Ke had just had breakfast, and there was a guard report:

"General, the surname Pei is here again, asking to see ......"

Before the guard's words were finished, Huangfu Ke waved his hand and said with a smile:

"Tell him that he is sick and can't see any outsiders, so let him wait at the inn. Everything will be discussed until the illness is cured. ”

Seeing that the guard refused to leave, the emperor seemed to stop talking, so he glared and reprimanded:

"Why, didn't you hear what so-and-so said?"

"I heard it clearly, but the one surnamed Pei said that if the general doesn't see him, he will have to wait outside the gate until the general sees him......"

Huangfu Ke's face turned pale, and he smiled again.

"Thief monkey, tell me honestly, how much money did you receive from the surname Pei?"

The guard said stupidly: "No, not much, ten gold! The general said that money cannot be collected in vain, and if you say what you should say and do what you should do, you will have a clear conscience." As for whether the general agrees or not, again, it is another matter......"

"It's good to know your duty, so you know what to do, right?"

"I know that according to the rules, half of the bribe will be paid to the public!"

"Well, go ahead!"

Huangfu Ke walked away from the guard, and was satisfied with his waist on the military couch, he just wanted to dry this Pei Jing. The Pei family and the Huangfu family have been friends for two generations, his father and his ancestors, and he Huangfu Ke have a lot of friendship, speaking of which, this is also his descendant, once they meet and have an invitation, how can they be clever and deceive each other?

In the final analysis, he did not have any psychological burden on Qin Jinyang's disobedience and rebellion, but he did not have the face to do so to Pei Jing, a junior.

If you can't say anything, you can only avoid it, and if you don't see each other, you can't talk about everything, and since you can't talk about it, Huangfu Ke can naturally pretend not to know everything.

However, Pei Jing, this kid, was blocked at the main entrance, and it was not good for Huangfu Ke to go out to the army to see things. He didn't believe that Pei Jing, this kid, had the patience to withstand the sun outside and hold on for a day.

Out of boredom, an exciting piece of news was sent to Huang Fuke's desk. The men and horses sent out successfully plundered the 10,000 stone grain of the Shenwu Army, and the Shenwu Army did not make any counterattack or retaliation.

The emperor read the newspaper and laughed, and the depression that had been suppressed for many days was swept away.

"Qin Jin's little shaft also has today, the old man will eat you!"

The messenger was a school captain, and he echoed in a loud voice:

"The grain has been transported to the outside of Pujin Pass, do you want to check it out?"

Food has always been stuck in the noose around Huangfu Ke's neck, he also loves and hates food, and successfully grabbed tens of thousands of stones of grain, and under the excitement, he plans to go and see it in person, so that he can rest assured.

But as soon as he stood up, Huang Fu Ke recruited his entourage again.

"Is that kid out there leaving?"

"Back to the general's words, he still hasn't left!"

Huangfu Ke sat back again, and scolded in his heart, Qin Jin's little vertical must have calculated this section before sending Pei Jing to negotiate. As a result, his senses for Qin Jin became even worse, and sooner or later he would have to return the color on the battlefield.

"You go back, I'm a little tired, so I won't go!"

Obviously the early morning was fine, and Huang Fu Ke was a fierce man, and the captain couldn't see that his general was tired anyway, but he didn't dare to debunk it in person, so he had to bow down and retreat.

Huangfu Ke sat for a while, and then invited his entourage to ask if Pei Jing was still there, and after receiving a positive answer, he was depressed and a little worried.

"The sun is very strong, don't let that kid get dizzy, go, send some water, give him a drink!"

Unexpectedly, the entourage smiled and said: "The general is too worried, but the kid surnamed Qin came prepared, not only with a parasol, but also someone specially served to boil water and boil tea......"

The emperor was furious and slammed his palm on the desk.

"The kid is hateful, insincere, and the old man is still worried about ......"

The entourage replied with a wrong idea, and asked in a stammering manner: "Why don't you send someone to teach the kid surnamed Qin a lesson?"

Huangfu Ke glanced at him and scolded: "Just take care of your own duties and get out!"

After receiving the reprimand of the Lord, the attendant bowed his head and withdrew.

Thinking of having no way to take Pei Jing's kid, Huangfu Ke was a little helpless, in his impression, these newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, and they never know how sinister people's hearts are and how cruel the reality is. Today, this kid is fortunate to meet himself, the Huangfu family and the Pei family have been friends for two generations, for the sake of the world's friends, it is reasonable to take care of him.

However, after all, Meng Lang is acting if he has not suffered a loss, if it is not himself who is in charge today, but someone else. Just Pei Jing's unknowing behavior is enough to make him suffer.

After thinking about it, Huang Fu Ke felt that as an elder, it was necessary to teach Pei Jing, the younger generation, a lesson, so that he would not act so arrogantly in the future.

As soon as he thought of this, Huang Fu Ke immediately summoned his entourage and explained a few words in a low voice.

"Take a few people who hide their identities, and tie up the few boys outside who don't know how to advance or retreat out of the city, remember, don't hurt them in the slightest! Otherwise, military law will be engaged!"

After the assignment was completed, Huangfu Ke waited for the return of his entourage, but unexpectedly, there was a big commotion outside, and he soon got the report.

"General, the kid surnamed Pei is not simple, the brothers underestimate the enemy and suffer losses!"

Huangfu Ke was furious, pointed at the entourage and scolded: "You are also an experienced veteran, and you have planted your heel in front of the fledgling yellow-mouthed boy, why don't you hurry back and complain here, don't you expect Lao Tzu to be angry with you?"

In fact, even Huangfu Ke underestimated Pei Jing, thinking that dealing with these yellow-mouthed boys could be done with just a few hands. But he never imagined that his own pro-army guards actually suffered a loss in front of this person.

"Wait! How many people did you send?"

The entourage said in frustration: "The one surnamed Pei brought six followers, and he thought that four people were enough to subdue them, so in case he returned, he also sent one more person, so there are five brothers in total!"

"It's not a shame to fight more and miss a hand with less!"

Huangfu Ke actually excused them, but the entourage was even more depressed.

"If you can retreat with your whole body, it is just as the general said, but only one came back, and the rest were all captured by the other party!"

Huangfu Ke was shocked, and he couldn't imagine that Pei Jing, as a gentleman, would have such a ability. His entourage is the elite of the veterans of a hundred battles, even if he fights more with less and does not bargain, he will never be captured by life. The only explanation is that Pei Jing and the people he brought are all really capable.

was taken advantage of by the younger generations, Huang Fuke was not angry, and even had a feeling that the blue was better than the blue.

When the entourage saw that his general was no longer talking, he wanted to bow down and withdraw, and sent more people to teach Pei Jing's little shaft a lesson.

"Report!

The messengers rushed in from the outside.

Huangfu Ke was stunned when he heard this, his subordinates are not so impatient on weekdays, and their voices are so flustered, isn't there a big change?

"Come in and talk back, what's the matter?"

"The general is not good, and the thief secretly killed all fourteen people!"

"What?"

Huangfu Ke's intuition trembled, as if he had been struck by lightning, and the whole person bounced up from the military couch, staring at the soldier who reported the news.

"General, all fourteen of the thieves have been killed!"

The response was loud and clear, Huangfu staggered a step, and the whole person fell back on the military couch.

"Who is the murderer, have you ever been punished?"

An Lushan's secret envoy sent his own elite entourage to be responsible for the defense, even if he was captured by the thief, the other party would not want to retreat.

"The murderer is Pei Jing sent by the Shenwu Army, he never escaped a single one, killed three people, seriously injured one, and captured the rest with all his hands tied!"

Huang Fu Ke only felt that his head was buzzing, and for a while he had an illusion like a fallen dream, and everything in front of him was distorted and deformed, and it seemed extremely unreal.

Suddenly, the emperor screamed, "The old man is also in the plan!" The sturdy body fell to the ground with a bang.

The entourage soldiers present immediately panicked, Huangfu Ke has always been fierce, how could he have fainted so out of shape in front of his subordinates?

"General, General"

After some hurry, Huangfu Ke woke up slowly, and when he opened his eyes, he sighed again and again.

"The old man hunted geese all his life, but he didn't want to be pecked by the geese today. Since then, the Shuofang army has no way to retreat, and it has fallen into the hands of the Shenwu army. ”

"Why is the general like this? Even if all the thieves' envoys are killed, it's a big deal that we can fight with the Shenwu Army!"

Huang Fu Ke pushed away the entourage who was supporting him and sat up strongly.

"Faint talk, fight, don't you want to run out of the old brothers of the Shuo Fang Army?"
