In this troubled world, people can not have the intention of fighting for hegemony, but they have to have some protective power, otherwise they are easily regarded as fish and meat.

Just like just now, if it weren't for the timely appearance of these brothers, Huaxing would probably have been taken away by Chen Gong.

It is precisely because of the protection of the troops that he can save the day.

Therefore, seeing that the generals expressed their willingness to follow themselves regardless of returns, Huaxing was actually quite happy in his heart.

But after being happy for less than a second, Huaxing remembered something again, and his face showed worry.

Although everyone said that they didn't care about the return, Huaxing knew very well in his heart that if he wanted to keep them by his side for a long time, he would definitely have to give the other party a certain reward.

In other words, who wants to stay for a long time in such an embarrassing situation, when people have come to join him, and as a result, he has no ability to pay his military salaries and cannot even guarantee rations?

So whether it's trust or vision, these things sound wonderful, but without the guarantee of rations and salaries, sooner or later these things will be shattered by reality and eventually beaten back to their original shape.

So, with this concern, it didn't take long to see Huaxing and say apologetically:

"Everyone trusts me so much, and Hua is really grateful. I can't hide it from you, Hua is not able to bear the expenses of so many people today, and I may not even be able to guarantee rations......"

I thought that after hearing this, everyone would be disappointed and go home.

But the result was much beyond Huaxing's expectations, not only did no one in the crowd leave disappointed, but everyone also showed strange smiles on their faces!

At the same time, I heard Tang Sheng speak again:

"General Hua, you don't have to worry about this matter, the last general has taken care of it for you!"

After saying that, he clapped his hands twice on the spot, and the crowd immediately dispersed to both sides, revealing more than fifty four-wheeled grain trucks that had been hiding behind them before.

"W-This?"

After seeing the familiar grain trucks full of goods and déjà vu, Huaxing was stunned on the spot.

"Hehe, don't you know the general?"

After grinning, he saw Tang Sheng pointing to the grain transportation lane with a smug face:

"This is the loot we took back from the thieves in Qiankun Mountain last time!"

No wonder it looks familiar, it turns out that these cars are loaded with objects brought back from Qiankun Mountain! After nodding slightly, he heard Huaxing open his mouth and say:

"Hey! Wait, aren't these supplies already in storage? How did you end up here? ”

"Hehe, of course we shipped it out overnight!"

After a wicked smile, Tang Sheng explained to Huaxing the origin of these materials.

Since he had plans to leave, as the son of a businessman, Tang Sheng certainly understood that it was not easy to feed such a large group of people.

In order to get a "start-up capital", Tang Sheng set his sights on the loot that had been shipped back not long ago.

First, these materials are all hard work to get back, even if they "take" it now, they will not have too much burden in their hearts;

Second, because Lu Bu died soon after they returned, although many materials were put into storage, they were piled up in the warehouse before they had time to unload the truck, which was very conducive to "carrying".

Therefore, Tang Sheng led people to the storage place overnight, ready to take away their loot.

What's even more coincidental is that the person who guarded the treasury that night was also the soldier who went up the mountain with Huaxing to suppress the bandits.

After learning of Tang Sheng's intentions, he not only did not stop him, but also helped the other party open the door of the warehouse, and pushed all the truckloads of materials out of the city, staging a big drama of self-theft.

As for going out of the city, it might not have been easy to do before.

But now Tang Sheng is also a five-grade general, and after coming to the city, he lied that he had military affairs and must go out quickly.

Although the goalkeeper was suspicious, seeing that the opponent was in such a big battle, there were people and cars, so it stands to reason that there should be no problem.

In addition, this General Tang Sheng urged again and again, and even said that if the military situation was delayed, he would ask this person.

After several threats, the gatekeeper finally failed to withstand the pressure and ordered the city gate to be opened.

Tang Sheng, who was secretly happy in his heart, left Hongnong with more than 600 soldiers and more than 50 baggage trucks openly......

After leaving the city, the last general sent someone to take a careful count. This time, we took a total of 37 carts of grain and grass, 4,300 taels of silver, and a few jewels. I didn't dare to take more weapons, for fear that the guards would see the flaws, but I just carried one in my hand. ”

After listening to Tang Sheng's introduction, Huaxing subconsciously gasped and said with a look of surprise:

"You're ruthless enough, huh? Aside from the weapons and horses, you almost took away all the loot we brought back last time? ”

"Hey, hey! Since you want to take the sheep by the hand, you must be thorough! After scratching his head and smiling, he heard Tang Sheng add again:

"Actually, I originally wanted to get some military horses, but because the stables are too far away from the warehouse, we really don't have time to go, hehe, we can only leave them to General Gao. However, these materials are enough for us to deal with for a while, so General Hua doesn't need to worry about this matter anymore! ”

Unexpectedly, the problem that was still worried just now was solved by Tang Sheng so quickly, and Huaxing's face showed joy.

However, the joy was short-lived.

didn't stay long, and was replaced by a sigh from Huaxing:

"Alas! Tang Sheng, although your approach is very ingenious, it has indeed solved your urgent needs. But for General Gao, isn't it a bit ...... for us to do this? Ungrateful, huh? ”

"Is there one? The end, the end will not feel it! Although Tang Sheng said this, his head involuntarily lowered.

"On weekdays, General Gao has treated me well, but when he left this time, he was both sending off and preparing to entangle, and he can be regarded as a person with affection and righteousness. But what about me? Before leaving, not only did he kidnap a team of soldiers, but he also stole a lot of materials from the warehouse without permission. Alas! It's a bit light to say that we are ungrateful, this is obviously revenge! Speaking of this, Huaxing couldn't help but sigh again.

"General, you're not entirely right!"

After listening to Hua Xing's words, although Tang Sheng was a little empty in his heart, he still tried hard to justify:

"Everyone came with you voluntarily, how can you say that you ran away? Also, these materials were originally taken back from Qiankun Mountain, and I didn't move the other materials at all, at most, at most, they were just returned to their original owners, how could they be 'stolen'? That's definitely something you're thinking about. Also, even if it was really stolen, it was also stolen by me Tang Sheng, and it has nothing to do with you, how did you get it all on yourself? ”
