While talking, the guards of the Luoyan Army gathered all the coachmen when they searched around, and also found two Da Zhou officials who were lying in the grass nest and trembling in fright. When the camp was attacked, the two officials were so frightened that they found a grass nest and crawled down, holding their heads and shivering. When the guards found them, they were still lying face down in the grass nest with their mouths gnawed on mud and their heads disregarded.

When he saw Lin Jue standing in front of him, the official surnamed Zhang suddenly exclaimed in surprise: "Huh? Aren't you...... Lord Lin? ”

Lin Jue frowned and looked at this person carefully, unable to remember who he was for a long time.

"Do you know me?" Lin Juedao.

"Of course I know, when Lord Lin was the third envoy in the court, the subordinate officials were in the household department of the political affairs hall, and there were many affairs handed over, and it was common for adults to come to them. It's just that you haven't seen me. Xiaguan Zhang Pingshan, do you have an impression? The official surnamed Zhang said with a smile.

Lin Jue thought about it and was not impressed, but listening to this person's tone, he must really know himself. So he said: "It turned out to be Lord Zhang, and he was polite." ”

Zhang Pingshan breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that this group of people was from the Great Zhou, but he quickly became nervous again. Swallowing and foaming, he said, "Lord Lin...... Not to Funiu Mountain...... Is the grass falling? Are these your brothers in Funiu Mountain? Have you come all this to rob your house? Lord Lin, it's not that the lower officials are talkative, you have committed a big taboo. These are the grain and grass materials that the imperial court negotiated to compensate the Liao people, but they can't be moved. You have killed so many Liao soldiers, and the Liao people will think that it was my Great Zhou court that did it, how can this be good? ”

"What do dog things say? What fallen grass? We are rebels. made Guo Xu's dog thief's rebellion. What is a robbery? Want to slap your mouth? Do you know Master Lin, but do you know Lao Tzu? Ma Bin shouted angrily beside him.

Zhang Pingshan turned his head and actually recognized Ma Bin.

"It's not ...... Is the deputy commander of the Imperial City Division Master Ma? We've had wine at the feast. ”

Ma Bin scolded: "You still know Lao Tzu, Zhang Pingshan, I know your details, you are Lu Zhongtian's old dog's lackey, there must be a lot of bad ideas." You are rarely close to Lao Tzu, you give Guo Xu your life, and you are my Ma Bin's enemy. It's not too much to cut you. ”

Zhang Pingshan was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Lord Lin, Master Ma, the lower official is just an errand, and he has no grudge against you." The two of you have an entanglement with someone, and you can't afford to worry about this little person. ”

Ma Bin was about to scold again, Lin Jue waved his hand and smiled: "Lord Zhang, Master Ma is just joking, we are here to kill Liao dogs, you are also from my Da Zhou, why should we kill you?" This is the end of the two of you escorting the grain cart, and we will let you two go away and report back to the court. These hundreds of truckloads of grain and grass materials belong to us. ”

Zhang Pingshan frowned and said: "Lord Lin, it's not that the lower officials are talkative, how can we go back if you do this?" If you kill the Liao, this matter will be very troublesome. I'll die when I go back. ”

Ma Bin shouted: "What does it matter to us whether you die or not?" ”

Lin Jue waved his hand and smiled: "However, what does Lord Zhang mean, does he want us to hand over the food and materials to you?" ”

Zhang Pingshan hurriedly said: "That's not it, how can you spit out the food you swallow in your mouth, and the lower officials don't have the courage to do it." Xia Guan just hopes that Lord Lin can write a certificate to prove that this batch of grain and grass was robbed by you. In this way, the officials can go back and report to the court. Other than that

It will not cause misunderstanding between the imperial court and the Liao people. You take the supplies. Isn't that the best of both worlds? ”

Lin Jue laughed when he heard this, this Zhang Pingshan thought that he was really here for this batch of materials, but he didn't know how he would take this batch of materials in his eyes.

"Master Zhang, go back, go back and tell Guo Xu that if he is willing to grovel and be the dog of the Liao, we can't control him. Those who are willing to fall will be dogs themselves, and others will not be able to stop them. But he used the blood and sweat of the people to scavenge the fat and ointment of the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty to serve the Liao people, and he was the public enemy of the world. He, the emperor, will not be long in coming. Go ahead, don't make me change my mind. We've killed hundreds of people tonight, and if you try to make up the numbers, I can do the same. Two more deaths are nothing. Lin Jue shouted coldly.

Zhang Pingshan was unwilling, and he had to talk about it. Lord Zheng on the side was busy pulling his sleeve and telling him to stop. The other party can obviously kill the two of them, and it is already a blessing to let him go, and if he has to be entangled again, he is afraid that he will lose his life. Zhang Pingshan also knew that what he said was the truth, so he had to bow down and salute, and asked Lin Jue for two horses, and the two rode on the horses and left quickly.

After the two left, Ma Bin and the others were not angry, and asked Lin Jue, "Why did you let these two guys go?" If you kill it, you will get it. Lu Zhongtian is just a lackey. ”

Lin Jue said in a deep voice: "I don't know their bad deeds, how can I kill people indiscriminately." Naturally, there is no need to be merciful to the enemy, but within the Great Zhou, how can you kill indiscriminately? If they really deserve to die, they will be liquidated in the future. It's not too early, so get ready, the best is yet to come. ”

Lin Jue gave the order, took off all the armor of the Liao army, and dragged the corpses to the forest near the left to hide. More than 500 soldiers and horses of the pro-guard battalion began to change their costumes and dress up as cavalry of the Liao army.

When everyone was busy, Lin Jue summoned more than a thousand coachmen to discuss things.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have something I want to ask you for help with, and I don't know if any of you have the guts to do that." Lin Juedao.

The coachmen have long had a good impression of this Lord Lin, and they also have a good impression of these soldiers and generals. Hearing this, they hurriedly asked, "My lord, please speak, but if you are sent, you should serve your life." ”

Lin Jue nodded and said, "It's not a secret, the reason why we hijacked this convoy is not because we want these food supplies, but because we want to use this to enter the Xijin Mansion." I'm afraid you don't know that the tens of thousands of troops of Da Zhou have already conquered Zhuozhou City a few days ago, and they will attack Xijin Mansion in the near future. I took my brothers to infiltrate the Xijin Mansion, just to cooperate with the outside and take the Xijin Mansion, and deal a heavy blow to the Liao people. This was originally a top-secret military action plan, but Lin regarded you as his own, so it didn't hurt to tell you. ”

All the coachmen were stunned, it turned out that these people actually wanted to enter Xijin Mansion to make trouble, and this was too bold. And how could the imperial court send troops?

"Imperial Court ...... Isn't it peace? Why is there another war? Someone asked.

Lin Jue said: "It is indeed the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, but it is not an order of the imperial court, just like us, we are the soldiers and horses of the Great Zhou, but there is no need to listen to the words of the imperial court to ask for peace with the Liao people and be the dogs of the Liao people." Got it? ”

Everyone understood that it turned out that it was the soldiers and horses of the Great Zhou Dynasty in the border town who attacked Liao on their own initiative, although this is incredible, but it is a happy good news. It seems that there are also bloody people in the Great Zhou army, and they refuse to be the dogs of the Liao people.

"What do you want us to do? But please

Enjoin. I'm afraid that those of us will only be able to drive cars and move things, and if we fight, we are afraid that we will not succeed. Everyone said.

Lin Jue smiled: "Why do you want to fight hard? What do you want us to do? It's for you to help drive into town. You are experts in driving cars, and we are experts in killing enemies, I didn't want you to take risks with you, but my people are afraid that they can't catch up with such a big car, and at most they can only assist on the side. So I would like to ask some of you to help us get the convoy to the Fujin Mansion. I know it's dangerous, and I won't force you to go if you don't want to, but I can buy your cart and mules and horses, and let my brothers go with me. It's just that maybe it's harder, I'm afraid of being recognized by the Liao. ”

Everyone looked at each other, and some muttered in their hearts. It turned out that he wanted to help them drive the car into Xijin Mansion, which was a fatal errand, so he naturally hesitated in his heart.

"Handlebar type, everybody. Of course we have to help with such a thing, this is a Liao fighter, how can we think about it more? You're afraid of death, aren't you? My old man was the first to sign up, and I'm not afraid of death. In order to fight Liao Dog, what should I do if I die? The old man who had spoken to Lin Jue before was the first to speak in silence.

When he made this statement, dozens of coachmen immediately expressed that they were not afraid of death and were willing to help drive the car to attack the Liao city.

The old man saw that the others were still hesitating, so he stomped his feet and scolded: "You people, no wonder the Liao people will treat us Da Zhou people as people, because my Da Zhou is all you shrunken turtles, all of whom only care about themselves. Although my old man has never read a book, he also knows the truth that everyone contributes in the face of national disasters. At this moment, you are unwilling to contribute, and when the Liao people attack your house, burn your house, and kill your wife and children, who else will you look for to save you? The hearts of those who can save you are cold, and they are almost dead, because you do not help them. ”

Although the old man's words were simple, they were the real truth. The coachmen already had no way out, and it was actually difficult for them to go back. The court must have pursued their responsibility for losing the goods they had transported. Before, I was just afraid of death. Now when I heard the old man say this, I was stunned. For a while, they raised their hands and expressed their willingness to help catch the car.

Lin Jue bowed to the old man and was very grateful in his heart. In fact, even if these drivers disagreed, Lin Jue would force them to help. The "Wartime Emergency Regulations" promulgated not long ago were not promulgated in vain, it gave Lin Jue a legal basis to act informally, and at this time, even if Lin Jue forced them to do things for themselves, it was in accordance with the regulations. However, the twisted melon is not sweet, after all, it is best to convince.

"Thank you, we don't need so many people, we want to keep you safe, there are too many people we can't guarantee it. Just choose a handlebar for each big car, and as for the rest of the brothers, you can choose to stay here and wait, or you can choose to go back to Dazhou. I will give you two taels of silver so that you can return home without any problems. Lin Jue said.

"If we don't leave, we all have to go, aren't we being found fault by the court when we go back? It's better to follow you, the court may still think that we are dead, but it will not embarrass our family. The coachmen said.

Lin Jue thought for a while and said, "Okay, that's okay, you guys will drive according to the original arrangement, so that I have a better arrangement." Just remember that everything is at my disposal, and I will guarantee your safety. Don't be too afraid, we dare to enter the city, and we have our own thunderous means. ”
