Chapter 10: Yu Jing's Big Business

Lan Lan said calmly: "This is Yun Zheng's approach, he wants to do one thing if there is an accident is a strange thing, the concubine is to see that you have a heavy mind in the past few days to give you a bad idea, it seems that the concubine has no ability to do politics, you still don't ask the concubine about these things in the future, you see, the concubine has just embroidered the five poison gown, Xu'er Dragon Boat Festival is just right for use." ”

Zhao Zhen didn't come over, looked at Lan Lan and said, "You said that Yun Zheng is actually a very careful and thoughtful person?" ”

Lan Lan compared the gown to her son's body and said: "Anyway, the concubine has never seen him fail, Xu'er's strength is getting bigger and bigger, and today I went to ask the concubine to say goodbye, and I actually jumped on the concubine's lap for a long time." ”

"According to Concubine Ai, doesn't it mean that Wu Shengjun's sneak attack on Shenglong City this time will succeed?" Zhao Zhen did not look at his son, but turned his gaze to the far south.

Lan Lan doted on Zhao Zhen's head and asked him to look at his babbling son again, and said angrily: "Yun Zheng will bring you back a lot of money, this is certain, you look at your son more now, Xiangxiang's chubby son is much better looking than those cold money." ”

Zhao Zhen smiled dumbly, picked up his son who stretched out his hand to him, affectionately put his forehead on his son's forehead, and took a deep breath of the milk on his son's body and completely forgot his troubles......

Ever since he saw Yun Zheng lead the army into the jungle, Yu Jing felt that the sky had fallen, and he sent people four or five times a day to find out if someone had come out of that secret passage, and the news he received always made him very disappointed.

Especially a few days ago, a hundred and ten ghost-like Jiaozhi people came out of a forest in Qiyuan Prefecture, although these Jiaozhi people were quickly killed by the army of Guangnan, and those soldiers who wanted credit did not even leave Yu Jing a prisoner who could be questioned, and they didn't know what was going on in the forest, and the frightened Yu Jing took 16,000 Guangnan soldiers to wait for his fate uncertainly.

From the looks of these people, Yu Jing could clearly feel the fear, if the Jiaozhi people only appeared one hundred and ten, the Guangnan army would still be able to resist, and once a large group of men and horses appeared. He clearly knew that these Quang Nam troops would run away without a trace in an instant, and these people were all people who had broken their courage......

In just one month, Yu Jing felt that his vitality was fading rapidly. The original gray hair had now turned white, and he even felt that if Yun Zheng didn't appear within ten days, his life would come to an end.

On a gloomy afternoon, birds at the edge of the forest flew up from the forest with a bang, hovering in the sky for a long time and refusing to fall, and some small beasts also ran out of the forest in panic, as if they were followed by terrifying beasts.

"Array, array!" The marquis of the Quang Nam Army roared heartbreakingly, desperately pushing the retreating Quang Nam Army forward, if it was the enemy army that appeared. In any case, you have to resist for a while.

Yu Jing, who was tied to the armor, couldn't breathe, and at this point, fear was a superfluous emotional factor, so he could face it calmly and draw his sword. With a hoarse voice, he shouted like the marquis of the Wusheng Army: "Guangnan Army, advance!" ”

After roaring, Yu Jing got off his horse and stood at the front, holding his sword and approaching the forest step by step, only by approaching the forest could the exit be blocked.

He didn't hear the overwhelming sound of Wu Shengjun advancing, only the sound of his own legs pushing through the grass on the grass of Nuoda, if anyone else followed. It was the old servant who had followed him for fifty years in his family, and the old servant followed the old man with a knife in his hand and tears in his eyes, although his body was trembling, his footsteps did not stop.

"Dudu" An elephant's cry came, and the hesitant Quang Nam troops immediately dispersed.

The armor on his body is too heavy. Yu Jing couldn't walk anymore after walking for a while, and the long sword in his hand said to the old servant Ah Shou: "There's no way, let's fight to the death for the Great Song Dynasty today!" ”

Old Ah Shou took out a wine jug from Wu Shengjun from his arms and handed it to the master: "Young master, you take a sip and drink more." I can be more energetic when I go to war later. ”

Ah Shou watched his old and young master raise the wine jug, poured a big sip of wine, and handed the wine jug to himself, took a big sip of it, and after throwing away the wine jug, he helped the young master to kill at the intersection.

The earth was trembling, the stagnant water in the puddle was rippling in circles, Yu Jing straightened his armor, stuck his sword in the middle of the road, and stared at the deep road with wide eyes.

"Old man, where is your army?"

An abrupt voice came from behind Yu Jing and Ah Shou, and after getting along with Wu Shengjun for a long time, the military marquis are used to calling Yu Jing, a good old man.

Yu Jing turned around abruptly, and found that hundreds of people appeared behind him at some point, and standing at the front was the very bad-tempered military marquis Lang Tan of Wu Shengjun.

Lang Tan was wrapped in a green silk cloak, and he was looking around strangely, and there were only Yu Jing and an old servant in gray in a large open space.

"What about Yun Zheng?" Yu Jing felt his throat dry.

"After breaking the master in the back, I was worried that someone from Jiaozhi would run out, so I quickly walked to the front of the line to see the situation."

"Got it?"

"Of course, I succeeded, and captured the Jiaozhi King Li Dezheng alive! Alas! What's wrong with you, old man? ”

Lang Tan rushed over to support the crumbling old man, thinking that the old man was real, why did he take an old servant to the edge of the forest, and it was not a joke to be bitten by a wild boar......

When Yu Jing woke up, he found that the clearing specially opened up by the edge of the forest was full of people, to be precise, there were not too many people, the most were all kinds of livestock, perhaps finally out of the dark forest, those animals, including elephants, were screaming happily, and a steady stream of pack teams continued to drill out of the forest.

The mule and horse were loaded with all sorts of things, and the elephant was dragging thick logs behind him, and he rubbed his eyes hard to make sure he was right, and then sat up with the help of the old servant.

"What about Lang Tan? The old man is waiting for him to report on the military situation! ”

"Master, you stop for a while, sleep well for a while to recuperate, you haven't slept peacefully during this time, the old slave told Lang Junhou about those bastards running away, Lang Junhou was angry, and took people to chase those cowards."

Yu Jing stomped his feet and said: "After I go back, all those people don't want it, it's better not to have them, I must report this matter to the court, the person who leads the army must know the soldiers, and will lead the troops, otherwise we don't know how we will die in the future." ”

Lao Ashou answered: "That's right, sir, you are a scribe, you can't fight and you can come forward with a sword, they can't run anything, they all eat for nothing, such people starve to death and can't relieve their hatred." ”

A red-eyed businessman walked up to Yu Jing with a smile and whispered: "Pacify the envoy, look at it, this is the beads that the villain got back from Jiaozhi, a total of one hundred and eight, the beads are not big, but each one is the average size, this is a treasure in a thousand, please appease the envoy Xiaona." ”

Yu Jing said with a smile: "The old man was going to take his life just now, so you used this little thing to buy the old man?" Don't move your fancy intestines, the old man is easy to talk here, Yun Zheng is not so easy to fool, his eyes are red for murder, right? Aren't you worried that he'll slash you? ”

The merchant sat on the grass in front of Yu Jing with a tired butt and said: "A noble person like you, it is difficult for Xiaomin to meet each other on weekdays, and now we have all picked up a life from the hands of Lord Yama and come back, and we have compassion for each other, Xiaomin doesn't have the courage to bribe you to take any shortcuts, I just want to comfort you, to be honest, the civil official Xiaomin who is not afraid of death will see you." ”

Yu Jing's expression darkened and said: "What's the use of the old man not being afraid of death, if it is not you who come out of the forest, but the Jiaozhi people, the old man will have already become a pulp, if you want to let the Great Song Dynasty not be bullied, everyone is not afraid of death." ”

Shang Jia smiled and said: "You are a herdsman, a soothing the people, the war is not your business, it is General Yun's business, you think too pessimistic, in the eyes of the small people, as long as there is a general like General Yun in the border pass, the small people will enjoy peace, the Jiaozhi people are notoriously cruel, but in the hands of the general, the casualties are heavy, and the small people can't bear to tell."

The emperors of Jiaozhi were all tied to wooden poles by the generals to show the public, and when they were caught from the palace, they were like dragging a dog, and the palace concubines were running all over the imperial city, and there was no etiquette in a mess.

Xiaomin can see clearly, if our fists are not hard, sooner or later will suffer, I heard that the soldiers of Guangnan have all run away, in the eyes of the villain, those people will not be able to, what kind of soldiers, running faster than horses, Lang Junhou rode a horse to chase until now has not chased back, even if those people are chased back, they can only be called by coolies, can you allocate some of this coolie to Xiaomin, although you calculate the cost in the generous, Xiaomin does not dare to bargain. ”

Yu Jing smiled bitterly, the army he had worked so hard to gather was a group of coolies in the eyes of the merchants, but now these people are only worthy of being coolies, and it is really difficult for them to hold knives and guns.

I spent a lot of money and food for this army, and now it seems that if I want to recover the money and food I paid, I can only call them as coolies, and then I will dismiss them when I go back, and I still have the money to re-recruit the army.

Shang Jia saw that Yu Jing did not flatly refuse, so there was room for negotiation, what he didn't lack now was money, how to transport these good things back to the Central Plains was a fundamental matter, as for a little labor cost, he didn't care.

"Then it's decided, you allocate 300 coolies to Xiaomin, Xiaomin uses them for three months, and the cost of food and lodging is counted as Xiaomin, pay you 300 kan first, and then pay you 300 kan after three months, tsk, the price of such coolies, Tokyo can't compare to ......"
