Seeing that Li San's words were unclear, an officer of the Qishan Army who was standing beside Li San kicked him to the ground and shouted, "Say it clearly!" Let His Highness not understand again, be careful to kill you with a knife! ”
Li San was so frightened that he quickly straightened up and said as quickly as pouring beans, "Yes, yes!" The thing is this, every once in a while, Wang Qing will send us to a sparsely populated place to pick up 'goods', oh oh, just to pick up these firearms, and when we get there, we can see a group of people wearing masks already waiting there, and then after we have a secret message with them, they will immediately turn around and leave, leaving only a cart of firearms for us, not only will they not accept anything from us, but they will not even say a word to us, which is simply very strange, so the villain calls them 'strange people'. ”
Zhao Huan nodded and said, "In other words, you don't know who those masked people are?" ”
"That's what the general said!" Li San nodded his head like a rattle, "The villain has already taken over the 'goods' from those people more than a dozen times...... Firearm! But I had never seen any of them in their true faces, nor had I ever spoken anything to them other than a code! ”
Zhao Huan and Zhu Wu glanced at each other, and they both saw deep doubts in each other's eyes, and Zhao Heng couldn't help but say in a deep voice, "Could it be ...... Someone in the Jingshi Firearms Workshop is secretly selling firearms to thieves? ”
Zhu Wu thought about it for a moment and shook his head and said, "It doesn't seem like it, if it's really them, at least His Highness should have such a firearm in his hand, not only thieves." ”
Zhao Huan thought about it, he really hadn't seen a firearm workshop produce firearms of this kind of power, so he couldn't help but say even more suspiciously, "Then who could it be?" Except for the Jingshi Firearms Workshop, who else can make this kind of firearm?! ”
Zhu Wu turned his head and asked Li San again, "How many of these firearms do you still have in your hands now?" ”
Li San thought for a while and shook his head and said, "According to the villain's knowledge...... This afternoon used the last batch of firearms, and now there are only these in front of him, the villain wanted to hide, but he didn't expect to be ......caught by the masters. ”
Zhao Huan and Zhu Wu glanced at each other again, each other's eyes lit up, and Zhao Huan immediately said, "In other words, there is no such firearm in the hands of the thief?" If they still want to use it, they have to get new firearms from those 'strange people'? ”
Li San thought about it, and nodded unsurely, "Hmm...... Maybe...... Right? ”
Zhao Huan asked hopefully, "Then do you know where they trade?!" ”
Li San shook his head and said with a sad face, "This...... The place that Wang Qing arranges is different every time, and the villain doesn't know it, unless he ......,"
Zhao Huanqi said, "Unless what? ”
Li San gritted his teeth and said while carefully observing the faces of Zhu Wu and Zhao Huan, "Unless...... Let the villain go back, and the villain will be able to find out where the next transaction will be! ”
Zhao Huan changed color at dusk, he glanced at Li San coldly, and there was already a faint anger on his face, okay, you treacherous thief Kou is a fool to be the prince of this book? Let you go back? Let you go back, will you come back?
"Pull it down!" Zhao Huan snorted coldly and said, "Cut!" ”
Several Qishan Army sergeants next to him immediately set up Li San and walked out, Li San was so frightened that he shouted, shouting again and again, "The villain is wronged, the villain doesn't dare to ......!" ”
Just as Li San was about to be taken away, he suddenly heard Zhu Wu shout, "Slow!" Bring him back! ”
Zhao Huan looked at Zhu Wu puzzled, Zhu Wu whispered, "Your Highness, this person is the only clue we can find out the source of these firearms at present, it's a pity to kill it now, it's better to believe it, even if he deceives us, we won't lose anything." ”
Zhao Huan now has a little obedience to Zhu Wu, and as soon as he heard Zhu Wu's words, he immediately nodded and said, "Well, okay, I'll do what you want!" ”
Here, Li San has been brought back to the front, and he seems to have seen that Zhu Wu is his only hope for survival now, only to see him staring at Zhu Wu with wide eyes and pleading, but his legs and stomach have trembled with fear,
Zhu Wu looked at him, "Li San, what kind of benefits can you get from the Fangshan Bandits?" ”
Li San hurriedly replied, "What's the benefit, I used to just want to be able to eat, but now that I have a firearm, I can have three or four yuan a month." ”
"It's only three or four times?" Zhu Wu smiled, "I'll give you four thousand, do you want it?" ”
"Four thousand!" Li San exclaimed, his face full of excitement but still trying to maintain his sanity, and he said in a trembling voice, "Give ...... Give me four thousand...... Pass through?! ”
Zhu Wu smiled and nodded, "I can let you go back, of course, you can never go back, but if you do that, I believe you will regret it for the rest of your life!" Because as long as you can send us timely information about firearms, I will not only forgive you all your sins, but also give you a one-time reward of 4,000 yuan, and then you can take this money back to your hometown, buy a few good land, build a few big houses, and marry a delicate new daughter-in-law to warm the kang and give birth to a baby for you. ”
In an instant, I saw that the fear on Li San's face disappeared without a trace in an instant, and he turned to staring at Zhu Wu with wide eyes, his eyes were full of the frenzy of drinking water for a person who is about to die of thirst, and for a person who is about to starve to death for steamed buns!
Zhao Huan looked at it on the side and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this Zhu Wu is really not simple, if he only promised to give this Li San how much money, maybe promised him some official position, this Li San may not have such a strong desire, because Li San is used to being poor, even if you give him 10,000 yuan, he doesn't have the concept of being able to do something with so much money, as a result, although the things that Zhu Wu said are not worth mentioning to himself, but for any dog, I am afraid it is everything that he dreams of! This is the embodiment of grasping the true desires of other people's hearts, and I will have to learn more from this person in the future!
Sure enough, Li San bent down and kowtowed three times to Zhu Wu, "The villain is willing, everything is under the orders of the general!" ”
Zhu Wu nodded, and then said to one of his subordinates, "Take him down, arrange the pick-up and everything." ”
The man replied yes, and then took a few people to escort Li San down, and Li San didn't forget to turn his head and shout when he was about to walk away, "General, I will definitely come back, you have to talk and do arithmetic......!" ”
Zhu Wu shook his head at Zhao Huan with a wry smile, "Your Highness, this is the only way for the time being, if my decision is wrong, please forgive me." ”
Zhao Huan hurriedly waved his hand and said with a smile, "Wu Guogong, if this is the case, I think this thing can be done!" ”
After that, Zhao Huan's tone changed and he said coldly and angrily, "I want to see which one of the ambitious leopards dares to fornicate with thieves!" If I find out, I will break it into pieces! ”
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The Fangshan army suffered heavy losses in this battle, not only lost two important strongholds, but also fled less than 20,000 of the 30,000 troops, and the remaining more than 10,000 were either killed at the hands of the Qishan army and the Song army, or were captured or scattered.
This was the first major defeat that Wang Qing had experienced since the incident, and it was also the most serious loss!
Wang Qing was really angry, a big victory that was about to arrive was inexplicably lost in the hands of the Qishan army that suddenly appeared, he simply hated Zhu Wu and the Qishan army, he really wanted to immediately arrest Zhu Wu and break the corpse into thousands of pieces, and in order to discourage, he even ordered to behead all the hundreds of Song soldiers captured before!
Wang Qing's generals are all silent, no one dares to offend Wang Qing who is on fire, only Li Zhu dares to persuade Wang Qing to calm down, now is not the time to lose his mind and get angry, the Qishan army is simply too powerful, and the top priority now is to find a way to restrain them!
Fortunately, Li Zhu was resourceful and won Wang Qing's trust, as soon as he came forward, Wang Qing had to forcibly suppress the anger in his heart, and at the same time, Wang Qing saw that Li Zhu also remembered another thing, so he immediately dismissed the generals and only let Li Zhu stay.
"Why hasn't that batch of firearms arrived yet?! Didn't you say you could get there this morning?! Wang Qing asked anxiously, although he lost today, but Wang Qing once again tasted the effect of those powerful firearms, if he could have more firearms in his hand at that time, maybe today's result would be completely different!
Li Zhu replied, "I have already asked them, and they said that now the Song army is blocking this area too much, and they can't transport it in as smoothly as before, so it has been delayed for two days, and if it goes well, the 'goods' can be delivered tomorrow at the earliest!" ”
"Good!" Wang Qing breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that he could receive the "goods" tomorrow, "Tomorrow...... Brother Li go in person, this batch of firearms is too important, there must not be the slightest mistake! ”
"Yes!" Li Zhu said, "Please rest assured, the big boss, there will be no mistakes!" ”
