Chapter 45: The Great Camp of Beizheng
Beizheng, under the mountain of Sanniangzi.
Su Ping sat on a horse, beside him a group of guards who were also riding horses, their uniforms were covered with dirt stains, carrying knives, and looking at the bandits lined up at the foot of the mountain with a hippie smile.
Su Lu couldn't remember how many times he had encountered bandits.
Since entering the territory of Beizheng, a group of bandits of unknown origin have been destroyed on the first day, as if they have provoked a hornet's nest, and the bandits have come one after another, sometimes they can meet two groups a day.
Thinking of those guards who could escort the grain to the Beizheng camp, Su Lu was really impressed, he was able to pass through so many bandits, and his strength was also very good.
"Pay a thousand taels of silver, Sanniangzi Village will open the road for you, let you pass safely this time, and the blood lion boss of Erlong Mountain will not do anything to you."
The bandit's words made Su Lu stunned, this ...... Are you explaining to me why the guards were able to pass without any problems?
But only a thousand taels, this price? Su Lu looked at the long grain team behind him, and couldn't help but sigh that this was indeed a conscience price.
Su Ping and a group of guards in front laughed, and they actually wanted to buy road money and get it into their own hands, it was really something that didn't know whether to live or die.
"This thousand taels is a bit much, can it be cheaper?"
Zhao Fatzi laughed and spoke, he was very curious, could it be that there were really guards who would give these guys money.
The bandit's head shook like a rattle: "No, no, no, our price is very conscientious, the first few batches of guards, the grain and grass escorted by the guards are much less than yours, and it is also a thousand taels of silver at a time, you have so much grain and grass, it is already very good if the price has not increased." β
"You have met us, if the Erlong Mountain stops you in front, there are less than 10,000 taels, they will have to level you, those big guys, they have backers to support, but they won't talk nonsense with you."
When the guards heard this, they laughed, marching for days, killing countless people, and the bandits' heads rolled to the ground, and the bandits in Sanniangzi Village were the most cute.
Li Kun shouted impatiently: "Su Ping, you can't do it, you can't let us go, the captain is tired of waiting." β
Su Ping blew a whistle, pulled out the steel knife on the horseback, and pointed it at the bargaining bandits, and the guards on the horseback drew their knives one after another.
The original immodest momentum changed, and the guards on horseback exuded an amazing killing intent, and the killing intent was like a gust of wind, forcing the bandits of Sanniangzi Village.
"Brothers, defeat them, climb over that mountain beam, and walk for half a day, and we will be able to reach the Beizheng camp."
The guards roared and rushed out, the steel knives fluttered, the horses neighed, and viciously smashed through the bandits blocking the road, chiseled through the bandits' thin formation, and instantly killed the opponent.
The battlefield was cleaned, and the grain team moved on.
Over the mountain beam, it is an endless plain, and the grain team traveled for a long time, and finally saw the Beizheng camp.
The camp of Beizheng is made of fine wood nailed into a wall, the four corners of the arrow tower are high, and the ditch is dug outside the wall, and the horses are rejected, and the horn wood abounds.
There are several black flags fluttering in front of the camp gate, and the central one is written with a gold-edged Luo character, and the pack horses neighing at the camp gate, and the carts are coming in and out endlessly.
Su Lu took the military booklet and official credentials, and after finding Fan Cai, the lieutenant of the baggage battalion who handed over the task, he handed over his official credentials.
Fan Cai didn't raise his head back, and his tone was full of impatience.
"Why did the Left Route Army change people to ask for food today?"
"I tell you, it's all for nothing, the food in the big camp is not enough, and I will give you more food there."
"Huh?"
Fan Caihou, who was flipping through the booklet, suddenly raised his head, looked at Su Lu, his face was full of excitement, and he stammered when he spoke: "You are not begging for food, you are a grain transportation team?" β
Su Lu handed over the military booklet.
Fan Cai opened the booklet, checked it carefully, and asked cautiously: "Three thousand stones were transported?" β
Su Lu impatiently took the official certificate out of his hand: "I don't believe I can see it." β
Fan Caihou laughed, pulled Su Lu out of the camp to inspect the grain, and when he saw the long grain queue, the whole person changed, as if it would glow, and he jumped high.
"Lao Tzu finally doesn't have to worry about distributing food!"
At the gate of the camp, the guards who came in and out looked at the grain team, and after confirming that three thousand stones had been transported at one time, the hordes of guards let out an excited howl.
"Finally I don't have to be fucking hungry."
"Lao Tzu hasn't eaten enough for many days, these bandits."
"This is the brother who transports grain on that road, and he can send 3,000 stones over, it's awesome."
Fan Caihou was overjoyed, grabbed Su Lu's shoulders, and yelled.
"Brother, you are my own brother, for food, I'm really annoyed these days."
"I didn't say it, wait for my brother to get the food ready, and this will take you to the wind and dust."
Fan Caihou jumped on the wall next to the camp gate and shouted towards the camp: "Those who are in the baggage camp, all of them will get out of Lao Tzu and transport grain." β
"Prepare me wine, and I will wash the dust for the brethren of the grain caraver."
Large battalion in the army.
The governor of the first battalion was discussing the battle plan, and Luo Du sat on the top, and when he heard the shouts coming from the gate of the battalion, his brows furrowed.
"This old fan is becoming less and less conscious, the military camp is heavy, is it the place where he yells at five and six?"
Deputy Marshal Xiao stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Marshal, you really can't blame Queen Fan Cai this time, not only can't blame him, but you have to reward him." β
All the governors looked at it curiously, not understanding why Vice Marshal Xiao would say this.
Luo Du snorted in his nostrils: "Old Xiao, you are going back more and more, what did he do after Fan Cai worthy of my reward?" β
"Grain, the grain transport team is sending grain, three thousand stones."
Luo Du stood up in a hurry, and the governors in the camp also stood up, looking at the door of the camp tent curiously, but they couldn't see anything through the heavy tent.
"Zhang Shugen, go, ask, how much grain did the grain transport team send, and who sent it?"
The pro-soldier team answered the sound of Zhang Shugen, and went out quickly, and after a while, they rushed into the camp tent.
"Dashuai, great joy."
"Beiyang Nanguan Battalion Transit Captain Su Lu Su sent 3,000 stone of grain, and our food problem has been solved."
Deputy Marshal Xiao said with a smile: "This Su Lu, sure enough, has some skills, Li Huaihua recommended him to be promoted by leapfrogging, and there is really a reason, my old Xiao is still wise." β
Luo Du, who was originally happy with little eyebrows, instantly restrained his smile, sat down slowly, lowered his voice and said, "Hmph, it's just a transportation of grain and grass, and I can't say anything." β
"Only 3,000 stone of grain, although the crisis situation of our Chinese army has been solved, the left army and the right army are still short of food, if the embarrassment of the left and right armies is solved, it is worthy of saying that there are some skills."
Deputy Marshal Xiao raised his eyebrows: "That's it, just say that this time the grain was transported, through the mountainous areas with many bandits, and the grain and grass were safely delivered to the camp, he is the only one." β
"Not to mention, he also won the gold medal as a small attachΓ©, and the Xuan Mansion has not yet made a decision on how to reward it, and sent the gold medal to the capital."
"What a little annex gold medal!"
Luo Du raised his eyebrows and beard, and his voice was arrogant: "The craftsman of Xuanfu Jiedu Mansion has been identified, and it is not a gold medal for the little annex." β
