There is no shortcut to success, if you want to succeed, you either rely on strength, or rely on luck, but most people don't have such good luck, so everyone has to rely on strength. This was the first philosophical sentence Zhuo Shan said after leaving the forest.

Gao Qiang looked at Zhuo Shan with a white cloth on his face, and couldn't help laughing: "Old Zhuo, you are the kind of person who is unlucky, you said so many people, but you stabbed the hornet's nest with your hand, and was stung by a bee into this kind of uncle, you should still be the first one since the founding of the Tang Dynasty." ”

Zhuo Shan touched his face and sighed: "Alas, it seems that in the future, my old Zhuo will not be able to rely on his face to eat, he can only rely on his strength." ”

Huang Fatzi couldn't help but say, "Zhuo Tou, can we stop bragging?" You didn't eat with your face before. ”

Zhuo Shan was annoyed and said angrily: "Yellow fat man, you bastard, hurry up and return the three horses that Lao Tzu lent you." ”

The fat man muttered in a low voice: "It's really Zhuo Peel, after entering the forest, Lao Tzu's mules and horses died four, and it took five thousand yuan before you agreed to lend Lao Tzu three horses, and now the matter is not finished, you want to go back, it's really not for the son of man." After speaking, without waiting for Zhuo Shan to get angry, the fat man Huang ran away, and with this vigorous skill, he couldn't tell that this was a fat man at all.

Zhuo Shan scolded: "Huang Fatty, this is a bastard thing who gets into the eyes of money, and sooner or later he will die on money." ”

Gao Qiang smiled and said, "Lao Zhuo, I feel that this yellow fat man is very similar to you." After saying that, regardless of Zhuo Shan, who was full of iron, Gao Qiang also laughed and left.

Gao Qiang looked back at the dense jungle, and couldn't help but feel palpitations, along the way, more than 500 people from Shangjia's guards and Gao Qiang's men were sleeping here.

At this time, Win Qian came over, and Gao Qiang hurriedly arched his hand and said: "I was able to get out of this jungle this time, thanks to Mr. Win." ”

Win Qian pointed to the front and said: "There is a small town in front, called Xiaoyao Town, after this town, you can go directly to Shuzhou." ”

"Thank you Mr. Win for informing, but Gao also has a question."

Win replied coldly: "Please speak." ”

Gao Qiang smiled and said, "Mr. Win, since you know Shuzhou so well, why don't your clansmen come out to live?" I have also been touched by the environment in the jungle along the way, which is not a place where people live at all. ”

Win Qian sighed and said, "How old do you guess I am?" ”

"Judging from the gray hair of the gentleman, he should be in his fifties."

Winqian shook his head and said: "I am only thirty years old this year, thirty years old in our clan is considered an old man, it can be seen that life is hard, but we dare not come out, the lord of Shu is surnamed Li, this surname is still given by your Tang royal family, my ancestor also served as an emperor, naturally understand the emperor's thoughts, rather with foreign enemies, not with thieves, and our winner in the eyes of your royal family, is a thief, if it is not for Zhuo Shan to find us this time, we have no way to avoid it, it is estimated that we will hide in this ghost place for many years." ”

Gao Qiang said respectfully: "Mr. Win, you are a wise man, but please rest assured, with my Gao Qiang, your people will definitely live a normal life." After saying that, Gao Qiang went to the front, not speculating for more than half a sentence, people have never believed in themselves until now, they have come all the way, except for seeing a win, I have never seen other people with the surname winning.

Before Gao Qiang had gone far, a winning voice came from behind him: "General Gao, the town in front of you can't stay alive, General Gao must not be merciful, and if my people come out, can they stay in Lingnan?" ”

Gao Qiang said without looking back: "I'm afraid it's difficult, Your Majesty has always admired your family's ancestors, so it is very likely that you will all be moved to Guanzhong to guard the spirits of your ancestors." ”

"Thank you General Gao for telling me truthfully, I understand the win."

When Gao Qiang heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said everything he could say, as for how to choose, it depends on winning money, becoming a king or losing a villain, this is the naked law of survival.

Gao Qiang and others hurried to Xiaoyao Town, there were no guards in Xiaoyao Town, but Gao Qiang still surrounded 5,000 soldiers into an encirclement and slowly rushed towards Xiaoyao Town.

Xiaoyao Town is in the hinterland of Shu Kingdom, so the people here have forgotten how to resist, after the arrival of the army, everyone only knows to kneel on the ground and surrender, a captain came to Gao Qiang and said: "General, all the one thousand and seventy-eight people in the town have arrived, and no one has escaped." ”

Gao Qiang smiled and said, "Very good, gather all the green forms together and let them dig a big pit by themselves." ”

"General, are you going to trap you?" The lieutenant asked in horror.

Gao Qiang nodded and said: "Qiu Laosan has only broken through the seventh fortified city of Shu now, so we can't expose it yet, I speculate that when Qiu Laosan breaks through the ninth city, the capital of Shu will be in turmoil, because the ninth city is only less than a hundred miles away from the capital of Shu, and then it will be a good opportunity for us to fight." ”

"In that case, let's just stop doing it and get rid of all these women and children." The captain said through gritted teeth.

Gao Qiang slapped the captain on his helmet and scolded angrily: "You loser, those women and children are sold to merchants for money." ”

"General, even if you sell it to them, they won't be able to ship it, and if we leak our news at this time, won't we fall short?" The lieutenant continued to persuade.

Gao Zhe said with a smile: "Old Tan, then you can underestimate these merchants, it is only their vanguard that follows us in, aren't all the military stations where we rest on the way given to these people, don't you worry, soon the follow-up troops of these merchants will come slowly." ”

"The lowly position understands, the general, please rest assured, the lowly position will arrange it now, and make sure that they will be grateful to us until they die." Captain Lao Tan listened to Gao Qiang's explanation and replied happily, they are all killers in the army, killing so many hundreds of unarmed people without the slightest psychological burden, I think when I followed Gao Dashuai in Yuyang Pass, which brother's knife was not stained with the blood of ordinary people?

Although Gao Qiang said that he had spent time on the battlefield with his father since he was a child, Gao Qiang, who was born in a famous family, still had a little burden in his heart for killing these defenseless people, so after arranging things, Gao Qiang entered the handsome tent and did not come out.

At night, the big pit was finally dug up, and under the push of the Flying Fox Army, hundreds of elites entered the pit they dug with their own hands.

Zhuo Shan and a group of people stood on the edge of the pit and looked at these people, and the fat man sighed and said, "What a docile group of people, it's a pity." ”

Captain Lao Tan snorted coldly: "What's the pity? Look at the way they appointed, at this time, they don't dare to stand up and resist, they really deserve to be buried. ”

Zhuo Shan explained with a smile: "Captain Tan, from the perspective of a soldier, this group of people is indeed a group of cowards, but from the perspective of our businessmen, these people are indeed the best candidates for slaves, docile and honest do not know how to resist, how good, Captain Tan, can you talk to General Gao, or don't kill them, sell them to us." ”

"It's, it's, what a slave."

"Well, it's all money." Other merchants followed suit.

Captain Lao Tan said coldly: "We don't have enough manpower, these people must be killed, if there is any case, then we will give up all our efforts." ”

Seeing that Lao Tan couldn't make sense, Zhuo Shan spit hatefully at Lao Tan's feet, and then left with a group of businessmen scolding, and the angry Lao Tan almost wanted to cut people with a knife.
