96.Chapter 96

Tang Xinhou lay down for a while, turned over on the bed, turned over again, and finally sat up simply, put on a dress, did not light the lamp, and went straight to the stable to harass his family's "ancestors".

Ruan Bai didn't do long in the position of Yicheng. Even a blind man can see this. The longer he got along with Ruan Bai, the more strange he became, how could someone arrange Ruan Bai in the position of Yicheng in the first place.

Well, maybe Ruan Bai was illiterate at the beginning, and he arranged to do something else, I'm afraid that before his ass is hot, he will be eaten by those old fritters in the officialdom. Besides, Ruan Bai's age is too young, and what he did was not small at all.

Not to mention anything else, the post station and the castle they saw every day were now cleaner and more beautiful than any city he had ever visited. Trees are shady and flowers are on the floor. From time to time, people sprinkle water and sweep the floor, and the manure of livestock can also be disposed of in time. The manure was also collected and sent to the military cantonment and handed over to the auxiliary army to compost the reclaimed wasteland.

The affairs of Juntun started relatively late, and there was no time to grow grain, and only a batch of vegetables had been harvested so far. Anyway, the vegetables eaten in the army are enough. The extra can also be made into sauerkraut and dried vegetables. It not only saved a sum of money for military expenses, but also "paid support" part of it for garrisons in other places.

These ideas were all the work of Ruan Bai. He sometimes thinks, Ruan Bai, a post officer, can do this job, what are those so-called parents of the people doing?

Now, Ruan Bai has gone to the capital, if he is not blind, how can he let Ruan Bai be a parent official.

The two later postmen were not really wrong-minded. There's nothing wrong with people going to high places. But the horizon and pattern are too small, they can only see such a small station, and they can't even see such a station.

They only know that it is a temporary post for now, waiting for Ruan Bai to come back or not to come back (?). ), and then the word provisional will likely be removed. This is the same on Chu Qianhu's side. But there are more people over there, so I don't know what it will be? He only hoped that it wouldn't affect them, but he knew it couldn't be ......

"Alas......"

Sure enough, someone found Zhou Dahu the next day.

Zhou Dahu's original butcher's face is now less and less murderous, but has the honest essence of Chu Hao. Among ordinary people, the killing of pigs is of course terrifying. But how can a pig killer be compared to a murderer.

Facing the hundred households under Chu Hao, he didn't know: "I don't know." The adults of my family will ask the villain to take care of the station. ”

"Business? Of course, the business is in charge of the adults themselves, what does it have to do with the villains? ”

"The land? Hasn't Ye Dong been taking care of it all the time? ”

The hundred households were so angry that they turned around and went to the opposite door to find Ye Dong.

Ye Dong was carefully playing with the alfalfa he found, and when he saw Baihu coming over, he hurriedly stopped: "Don't move!" Stop! Don't step on it! ”

Hundreds of households are inexplicable, the ground is full of grass, can't you even step on the grass? However, Ruan Bai has done a lot of inexplicable things, and he has to wait for the final results to come out, and people will suddenly realize "Oh, it turns out that the sauce is purple". This Ye Dong is Ruan Bai's subordinate......

"What is this Lord doing here?" Ye Dong could recognize Baihu's clothes, but after all, he was still young, and he didn't know how to be tactful when he spoke.

Baihu choked before he said his meaning: "I don't know how to arrange the output in these fields after Lord Ruan leaves?" ”

The weather here in the northwest is cold fast, don't look at the noon now, people can still sweat hot, at most less than two months, the ground can be frozen harder than stones. Therefore, after harvesting the crops, at most you can only plant another crop of vegetables.

However, the vegetables of 100 acres of land are not a small amount.

Ye Dong stared at Baihu for a while, until the other party was a little uncomfortable, and then said, "When the output comes, the adults will come back." "The output of the ground is none of your business! He didn't say this, but it was written clearly on the young man's face.

Baihu snorted, and could only act as if he didn't see it. Dog beating also depends on the owner. Ye Dong is Ruan Bai's person, and Ruan Bai is General Cao's brother-in-law. Now Ruan Bai has just left, and he may not be in a position when he returns......

"I just want to say that the road from Shunyang to the capital is long, in case Lord Ruan is delayed on the way, if there is anything that Little Brother Ye can't do, just come to the barracks to find it. Below are the hundred households under Lord Chu......"

"Oh." Ye Dong nodded, with "It's your" written on his face.

Baihu wiped his face. He has been in the army for a long time and doesn't know how to get along with ordinary people?

This hundred households are just fighting a sentinel war, and then whether it is the post guards, Ye Dong and a few long-term workers, they can be talked to by a few "brothers in the army" almost every three or five days.

Is it good to disturb people and do things? They have a lot of things to do, is it really so idle to be a soldier?

The changes here were seen in General Cao's eyes, and he instructed the housekeeper: "Go find Cao Jiu and come over." "Cao Jiu is a thousand households in the Cao family's army, the same is a thousand households, and his status is much higher than that of other people such as Mu Qianhu.

General Cao called Cao Jiu over and ordered one thing: "Starting tomorrow, let the soldiers under Chu Qianhu practice with you." ”

Cao Jiu's eyes showed doubts: "Yes." Is the training volume and program the same? ”

General Cao bared his teeth: "The same!" "Didn't the boss start stirring up the wind and rain when he wasn't there? Since they are so idle, let them be so busy that they can't even walk, and they can't speak.

Chu Hao is very good at training, and they all know it. In a recent war, they played a huge role. If time goes by, it is definitely another elite army that is not inferior to the Cao family's army.

However, Chu Hao's training time was too short. Even the subordinates who have followed him for the longest time have been less than two years; The shortest is only about half a year. Now that he can train to a level slightly higher than ordinary soldiers, Chu Hao's ability is not small. But if you have to train like Cao Jiajun, I don't know if there can be one out of ten people who can get up the next day?

However, whatever, it's the general's order anyway.

When Chu Hao's soldiers were trained to be dogs, Chu Hao and his party had already walked a third of the way, and the atmosphere in the team began to become more and more tense.

According to Ruan Bai's professional secret rubbing party, it is one of the best choices to start in this paragraph.

People are sleepy and tired, the terrain is complicated, and there is no shop in front of the village and behind the village. When the night comes, it's really dark, and it's a good way to get off the phone.

As a result, Ruan Bai showed a strange excitement during this time.

At noon, when the team stopped at a slope to make corrections, he was still looking around, hoping that a prisoner would come out.

Chu Hao looked at Ruan Bai angrily: "Aren't you tired?" "For people who are not used to horseback riding, riding a horse for a long time is a torture. His subordinates have many thighs that have been ground to a bloody blur these days. There is no way, although the number of horses in Shunyangguan is increasing day by day, there are not such good conditions before, so give them a hand. Even if it is the current two hundred or so horses, they are only temporarily borrowed, and they will be returned when they return to Shunyang Pass.

Those rough soldiers are like this, Ruan Bai, a guy with fine skin and tender meat, is all right? If it weren't for the fact that there were always people nearby, he would have picked up Ruan Bai's pants and checked them himself. However, looking at Ruan Bai's walking posture, except for a little loopy leg when he first got off the horse, it seems that everything is normal.

It's just abnormal!

"What am I tired of?" Ruan Bai glanced at him, "What did the spies find today?" ”

On the road ahead, there are many suitable places for ambushes. Even if you can't rob prisoners along the way, can't you harass them along the way? Don't you understand the tactics of tired soldiers?

Are the captives not professional at all? No professionalism is not counted, and it is not even professional! Bad review! He has been waiting for a long time, this "delivery" speed, when the goods are delivered, the Hun prince is rotten! Must have a bad review!

The others saw Chu Hao and Ruan Bai talking, and consciously retreated a distance.

Seeing this, Chu Hao turned sideways to avoid the sight of most people, and quickly touched Ruan Bai's inner thigh, almost jumping up in shock.

"What are you doing?!" Talk as you talk, why do you move your hands and feet? Didn't you make him a bloody boy now? If you don't make them, they've been vegetarian for a long time, and they don't even have to drink soup?

Chu Hao looked at Ruan Bai's flushed face, and his eyes were full of small hooks, which made his face heat up, and he coughed lightly before saying, "I just want to ask you, haven't your legs been worn out in the past few days?" ”

"Nope." He was so nice, "Have you forgotten that I walk obsidian every day?" "When he first started riding obsidian, he did suffer a little, but he wasn't as strict as these soldiers.

Obsidian runs very willfully, it seems that he is not used to being ridden on his body, and when he first rides it, he seems to be calm, but once he runs away, he always has to make some small movements to try to get people down. But if you are hungry for a few meals, feed two more good meals, and cycle a few times.

Later, the time of walking the horse became longer and longer, and he slowly grinded it out step by step. Again

"I don't ride horses all the time, I sit in the carriage for a while."

Chu Hao was relieved: "Also, if you want to talk about how to be good to yourself, there is no one else except you." ”

"Huh? What do you mean by that? "Is it wrong that he is good to himself? Isn't he good to others? Could it be that he is not good to Chu Hao?

Chu Hao quickly hugged him and comforted him: "Okay, it's my brother who said the wrong thing." ”

"Humph! Ignore you! Ruan Bai dropped his words very childishly and ran away.

Chu Hao didn't chase either, just stood in place and shouted: "Don't run far, set off in half an hour at most!" ”

Starting from Shunyang Pass, the first few days were as much as possible. Now it is better to rest as much as possible, so that the people and horses in the team can do their best to restore their spirit and body, in case there is an accident, they can't cope with it.

So, it's not that the prisoners don't want to start, but they can't find a flaw!

The other party is a border army of 200 cavalry, all of whom have seen blood. Moreover, escorting prisoners is like marching, and the front and rear are sweeping, and none of them is bad. They've got a lot of weird stuff. It was like that long, stick-like thing, he was sure he could see far away with it. Because last time a brother accidentally showed a little far away and was almost shot by an arrow! In the end, fortunately, the distance was too far away, and the arrows did not play a role; But their actions were exposed.

Where the terrain is gentle, there is nowhere to start; Where the terrain is complicated, you can't find opportunities. Even if people are resting, there is no shortage of people to be vigilant.

Now the most conspicuous little kid in the team has come out alone! It's a godsend!

You must know that they usually have at least five or six people to go out together, and they also take shifts to guard......

In terms of conspicuousness, in addition to the Hun prince in the team, it is Ruan Bai. The Hun prince was in a prisoner car, the only one. Ruan Bai is riding a high-headed horse, and he is also the only one. The soldiers around him who were riding ordinary war horses were stunned by him as if they were escorting the sons of gentlemen.

The leader of the robbers waved his hand: "Keep up!" ”

In the dense woods, more than a dozen robbers immediately responded, and their knives were unsheathed. They've been holding back these days. Moreover, there are rules on the green forest road, and it will not be their territory if they go over, even if they want to cross the line, they can't bring so many people. At that time, if you want to rob the prisoner again, the possibility will be even smaller, and the price you will pay will be greater.

A few days ago, the leader of the robbers would never attack Ruan Bai so lightly, but in the past few days, he thought that he had learned enough about this team.

This young man obviously had a good relationship with the general who took the lead, and was probably a brother. Seeing that he was placed in the middle of the group, the most heavily guarded position, and from time to time he sat in the carriage for a while or something, and his relationship with the other soldiers seemed to be good......

The robbers were very familiar with this forest, and after a while, they went around to the front of Ruan Bai to guard.

The leader whispered to his subordinates: "The idea is good, be careful not to be pecked by the eagle." ”

The robbers should be. Those who do their job are the most desperate and the most desperate. The leader's explanation to them must be justified. Besides, their business this time is really dangerous, and they don't have other ideas in their hearts.

One of the robbers took advantage of the fact that Ruan Bai was still some distance away, and asked in a low voice: "Boss, although we have fallen into the grass, we are also from Price. Did they really help the Huns save their eldest prince and send him back? ”

"Phew! Save the fart! The leader's cold gaze swept the direction of the prisoner cart, the woods were thick, and the distance was far away, he couldn't see anything, but it didn't affect the viciousness in his words at all, "The money that the Huns gave us, let's take care of it." When the time comes, the Hun prince will arrive, and we will knock on the Huns again. Do they dare to send people to Da Zhou to search the mountains? Our Da Zhou government can't find our stockade, rely on a few Huns? Hum! ”

"What a ploy it is!" The robber's eyes lit up, patted his ass, and asked, "As long as the Hun prince is in our hands, we are not afraid that they will not give money." But what about after they gave the money? Shall we return the Hun prince to them? ”

"Whew! It's a fart! The leader watched Ruan Bai look up and see a bird's nest and began to climb the tree, with a contemptuous smile on his face, muttering, "Little hairy child." He whispered to his subordinates, "When the time comes, we will chop up the Hun prince with a knife, carry his head to the official mansion, and say that he accidentally picked it up on the side of the road...... Hehe, we may be able to be good citizens when the time comes. Anyway, we have made enough money over the years, and if we buy a big house in the city, maybe we can marry an official lady, hahaha. ”

Of course, the specific operation will not be so simple. Although the robbers lived a closed life, they were not closed brains. if

They have more than 400 people in Shijingzhai, dominating the territory within a radius of 100 miles, not to mention the intercepted goods, which are all kinds of filial piety of the merchants, and they can also receive soft hands every year. These things are all handled by the leader. The items exchanged for them can not only make a good life in the village, but also wear gold and silver.

They used to be good citizens, but they didn't have enough food and clothing. Now they can eat meat and drink wine, but they want to return to their hometown, and it is better to marry a good girl...... Woman?

"Oops!" When he didn't hear the voice of his subordinates for a while, he knew that it was not good, and his body quickly rolled on the ground, and the "whoosh" sounded three sharp sounds almost in no particular order, and three sharp arrows shot through the chest of the man who was squatting behind him.

He saw that his soul was so dead that he didn't have time to look back, so he just ran into the thick bushes. The bushes don't seem like even a rabbit can get into, but they've actually dealt with them, and there are actually some twists and turns in the middle of the path that can be run by cats. Ambush and escape are convenient.

However, the leader only ran away for a few steps, and soon felt that his hands and feet were limp and he could not exert his strength. Was he poisoned? When did it happen?

The young man's clear and beautiful voice sounded beside him: "How boring is squatting, why don't we talk about life?" ”

The leader wanted to see the appearance of this young man clearly, but he couldn't help but fall to the ground, and the last thought was, where is this little hairy child, it's just an old monster pretending, right?!

Ruan Bai kicked the leader with his foot, his brows furrowed slightly, he looked left and right, scratched his head, and complained in a low voice: "It's so heavy." "I knew that he should have pretended not to understand Chu Hao's hints, how could he let him, a weak retiree, do such a rough job?

After a while, a loud whistle sounded in the makeshift camp, and Ruan Bai also dragged a long line of people and walked slowly over in the stunned eyes of everyone.

Ruan Bai's face was red because of the force, his forehead was full of fine beads of sweat, he opened his mouth and panted loudly, and sat down on the ground, breathing: "I can't drag it......"

Everyone else looked at him like a god.

In the entire team, even Master Zhang, who has been "motion sickness", looks stronger than Ruan Bai. He was a fifteen-year-old child, who looked like a bean sprout, and could drag more than a dozen people! Is it natural to have great strength?

Ruan Bai was paralyzed from exhaustion.

"Come on, pack these people together!" Chu Hao walked over and picked up the person angrily, "Won't you ask someone to help you?" Want to show off your strength? ”

Ruan Bai was so tired that he couldn't speak, so he could only "kill people with his eyes". Is it not permissible for the wise to be wise and wise to make a mistake in a thousand thoughts? Is it rare to be confused and not to make it?

Ruan Bai was stuffed into a carriage and separated from Tang Yan and them. The carriage is specially made and can hold a lot of things, but it can barely lie down a person. He suddenly remembered that when he escaped from the grassland, he was also lying in the carriage, surrounded by goods, and couldn't help grinning.

Chu Hao patted him at the moment: "Still laughing!" "More than a dozen people! He didn't even see that his second dog was still a strong man.

Ruan Bai whispered: "There are masters." ”

Chu Hao then covered Ruan Bai with a blanket, leaned over and kissed him quickly on the mouth: "Don't worry." ”

They knew from the beginning that the Huns would not be able to allow this rabble to take prisoners. If they can really intercept it, they can all go and hit the tofu and die.

This group of bandits is, at best, cannon fodder that can distract them from some of their energy. The identity of the Hun prince is too sensitive, and no matter how stupid the Huns are, they will not pin their hopes on the bandits. It was also impossible for the Huns to send troops on a large scale, only a small number of masters.

Grandmaster, there is probably more than one!

Therefore, in the real duel, some trash fish are better solved first.

After Chu Hao finished arranging Ruan Bai, he waved his hand and signaled loudly: "Ready to go!" ”

Almost as soon as his words fell, two "ding" sounded in his ears. Then there was a muffled grunt of a soldier falling to the ground.

The soldier stood by the prisoner's cart and, when attacked, raised his shield in good time, shielding himself and his companions from the deadly two arrows.

The power of archery is terrifying. The metal shield was covered with terrible cracks after two attacks. His hand was also broken with tremendous force. The huge impact force even pressed him to the ground, and pushed him out of a distance of nearly a zhang.

Condor Shooter!

Chu Hao was not surprised. The most feared of the Huns was the Condor Archer. In war, the role of the Condor Archer is even higher than that of the Grandmaster. And if you are not careful, it is likely that your own leader will be killed by the Condor Shooter directly.

Without Chu Hao's orders, everyone consciously put up a formation. Not only did they find cover, but their defensive shields were raised, turning into turtles in an instant.

Chu Hao smiled gloomily and raised his bow and arrow. Did he think that the Huns could shoot arrows, but he wouldn't?

In the imperial study, the prince turned around and circled, looking at his father from time to time.

His father sat motionless in front of the imperial case, and he was efficiently reviewing and commenting on the folds, without raising his eyelids.

Finally, the prince couldn't help it, and he went to the imperial case during the period: "Father~"

The emperor stood up and slapped the crown prince on the head unceremoniously: "Look at it!" What do you look like now? How many times have I told you, hold your breath! ”

The prince stood up straight aggrievedly: "Isn't this in front of you!" We are father and son, who is with whom~"

When the emperor first ascended the throne, he killed everything he could, and he thought that his relatives were thin, but he liked this son who often didn't have anything to do with him, so he put the imperial pen in his hand: "Say, what's going on?" ”

"Erchen, aren't you worried that Chu Hao won't be able to send people here! How long has it been? The prince muttered, and suddenly his eyes rolled, "Speaking of which, it seems that I haven't seen Gonggong Cai for a long time?" ”
