Chapter 761: One Hundred to Five Thousand
Shen Zhaocheng looked at the jar of wine on the table and was stunned, the jar of wine had been opened, but he didn't drink a sip, just by smelling the taste, he could be sure that this was the peach blossom brew of Daning Jiangnan Province, this wine was not so strong and soft in the mouth, even women and children could drink some in Jiangnan Province.
Two days ago, Luan Baishi specially bought two jars are also, the taste is very pure, he didn't drink less, he seemed to sing the folk songs of his hometown in a daze, Luan Baishi has been clapping his hands, rapping well, he has been watching what his reaction is, and his reaction to drinking too much seems to be very relieved Luan Baishi, that's right...... It is a look of relief.
But he didn't drink too much, he just felt that there was something wrong with Luan Baishi.
This afternoon, Luan Baishi brought a large cart of wine, and everyone in Daning's soldiers had a share, one person and one altar.
Wine is good wine, love is hospitality, there seems to be nothing inappropriate, Luan Baishi in order to improve the relationship with the Ning people so it is understandable to give some gifts, wine is not a gold and silver thing, it is not a matter of bribery, this peach blossom brew is sold in the streets and alleys of Jiangnan Road, as long as it is a wine shop, a jar of wine is only dozens of copper coins.
But Shen Zhaocheng felt that something was wrong, he sat there and thought all the time, he was a rough man, a martial artist, he knew that he could only fight if he didn't read much, but he was not stupid...... Transporting wine from Jiangnan Road, thousands of miles away, even if it is the most ordinary peach blossom brewed dozens of copper coins to buy in, a jar of wine here must be sold for at least two taels of silver or more to not lose, according to two taels of silver and one jar, more than 100 jars will cost more than 200 taels of silver.
It stands to reason that it is not difficult for a person like Luan Baishi to come up with more than two hundred taels of silver, right?
After all, when he was still in the Yue Kingdom, generals like Luan Baishi also held huge wealth in their hands, and the greed for ink in the Yue Kingdom was appalling, and Luan Baishi held military power and guarded one side, so it was impossible for him not to take out a few hundred taels of silver.
So what's the blame?
It's strange that Luan Baishi hasn't left Tuntian for a long time, and when he drank with him two days ago, he also said that he hadn't contacted his family for more than a year, and his family was in Ziyucheng, and after Daning destroyed the Nanyue Kingdom, Luan Baishi was the first batch of people who were willing to donate their family property, and they all gave it. Money is not the problem, the access is the problem.
Shen Zhaocheng got up and walked to the window to look out, the lights in the camp were very bright, and teams of soldiers patrolled by.
"Huh?"
Shen Zhaocheng was puzzled for a moment, tonight's patrol seemed to be denser than before.
At this moment, suddenly a hand came in from the window and grabbed his neck, Shen Zhaocheng subconsciously punched him, but before the fist went out, he was grabbed by the other party's other hand, he was thrown sideways and pressed to the ground, and the hand that pinched his neck released and covered his mouth.
"Don't shout, Ningren!"
The other party said four words in a hurry and in a low voice, and Shen Zhaocheng immediately nodded, which was purely a knee-jerk reaction, just because the other party said the word Ningren.
Shang Jiu got up and closed the window, squatted beside Shen Zhaocheng and said, "Find a way to gather your people as soon as possible, Luan Baishi has a problem, and they will do it soon." ”
Shen Zhaocheng hesitated: "Who are you?" ”
"The people of the Tingwei Mansion."
Shang Jiu said: "We came from Sushan County, we were ambushed and chased by the Yue people along the way, there are only three people left in the team of dozens of people, because I learned that there are more than 100 soldiers here, so I took the risk to come, the people of Sushan County and Subei County are afraid that they are going to rebel, and we must take your people to evacuate tonight, otherwise I am afraid that it will be more auspicious." ”
"Someone from the Tingwei Mansion?"
Shen Zhaocheng said: "Where is your iron card?" ”
Shang Jiu shook his head: "I haven't worn an iron plate for twenty years, my name is Shang Jiu Sui, you may not have heard of me......"
"I know!"
Shen Zhaocheng's eyes lit up: "If you can name Shang Jiu Sui, I know that I can trust you, and outsiders will not know this name." ”
Shang Jiu's eyes were full of gratitude: "Thank you for your trust." ”
"Ning people do not doubt Ning people."
Shen Zhaocheng got up: "I want to find a way to gather the team, Mr. Shang, what do you want to do?" ”
"Grab Luan Baishi."
Shang Jiu said: "If you don't take Luan Baishi, you won't be able to get out of Tuntian, you also saw it just now, there are Yue soldiers outside." ”
Shen Zhaocheng snorted: "I noticed that the number of patrols has more than doubled compared to before. ”
Shang Jiu is nine years old: "Because we came out of Sushan County, they are worried...... Where does Luan Baishi live? You go and gather the team, and I'll arrest him. ”
"It's in the courtyard across from me."
Shen Zhaocheng pushed the window open a crack and pointed out: "It's not far, it's still on." ”
"Go your separate ways."
Shang Jiu patted Shen Zhaocheng on the shoulder: "Try your best to take the brothers out alive." ”
"Good!"
Shen Zhaocheng turned around and put on the leather armor and grabbed the black line knife: "Mr. Shang, be careful, Luan Baishi is very strong in martial arts, and he is also very vigilant. ”
"Got it."
Shang Jiu looked out, then pushed open the window and jumped out.
In the dark, Luan Baishi played with the two beads in his hand: "The wine has been delivered, if nothing else, everyone has already put it down at this moment, right?" ”
Song Mouyuan shook his head: "Not necessarily." ”
"A group of people who are far away from home, I can feel that kind of homesickness, I am like this now, if there is a jar of hometown wine in front of me, even if it is a small sip, I will drink it, these Ning people have come from afar, they have not been home for more than three years, I don't believe that the wine in front of them will be motionless."
Song Mouyuan glanced at him: "You have been in contact with Daning's soldiers for a long time, are you sure you know them?" ”
Luan Baishi: "I understand people, as long as they are people, they will have nostalgia, these soldiers have nothing else to do, and there can be no other hobbies in this kind of ghost place, they have been holding on for three years, and there has been no restraint from the top in the past three years, people will become lazy." ”
"Sometimes, you can't see Daning soldiers as adults."
Song Mouyuan sighed: "Their self-control is stronger than you think. ”
Luan Baishi said: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if you don't drink, I've been thinking about fighting against the Daning soldiers for the past few years, I admit that the Daning soldiers have a very strong fighting style and are invincible, but I don't believe it, I can't break it in a few years, and I don't believe it, my nearly 5,000 people can't beat a hundred and a few people?" ”
Song Mouyuan said: "Whether it can be done or not, it's only tonight." ”
Luan Baishi asked, "Will they really come?" ”
Song Mouyuan looked at him: "What do you think?" ”
Luan Baishi was silent, and then scolded and said a little depressedly: "They will really come, I have always known that these damn Ning people always talk about not abandoning and not giving up, so they will always do something incomprehensible, and there are only three people left, and they will also run to Tuntian to try to inform the hundred and more soldiers, to be honest, I am disgusted with Ning Ren's self-righteousness, this so-called affection, isn't it stupid to put it plainly?" What is Shen Xiaosong's status, what is Shang's status at the age of nine, and isn't that Red Eleven Niang's status higher than that of the one hundred and ten soldiers? So this so-called non-giving up is a joke at all...... But I know that they will still come, and the Ning people seem to think that human life is not measured in this way. ”
Song Mouyuan looked at him and said in a flat tone: "I am also a Ning person." ”
Luan Baishi frowned.
At this moment, he saw a dark shadow jump from the back wall into his small courtyard, knowing that this would be the case, but he still couldn't help but get angry.
"Will it really come?!"
Then he saw Shen Zhaocheng go out of the small courtyard and enter the barracks of the Ning army not far away, and not long after, more than a hundred and more Daning soldiers came out of the barracks quickly, and they were already fully armed, and soon surrounded his small courtyard, still cooperating tacitly.
"You really didn't drink it?!"
Luan Baishi looked at Song Mouyuan, Song Mouyuan shrugged his shoulders, and was a little proud.
Luan Baishi clenched his fists tightly, he was not defeated, but he felt defeated.
Under the leadership of Shen Zhaocheng, more than one hundred Daning soldiers quickly surrounded the small courtyard, and the cold light hanging on the repeater could be seen under the moonlight.
"They really can't be counted as people."
Luan Baishi let out a long breath, and then raised his hand: "Attack!" ”
As soon as he gave the order, all of a sudden, the whole barracks became bright, and the Yue soldiers who lit the torches surrounded the small courtyard like a tide, and the long dragon formed by the torches swam in the barracks.
"Sure enough, there is a problem."
Shen Zhaocheng glanced at it and immediately ordered: "Go!" ”
It was just a one-word order, but all the Daning soldiers seemed to understand it, they didn't have any panic, they immediately got up and evacuated in one direction, and Shen Zhaocheng didn't say where to go at all, but they seemed to have practiced countless times, more than 100 people advanced and retreated in an orderly manner, and they had already evacuated the small courtyard and ran towards the east without a single delay.
At this time, Shang Jiu jumped out of the courtyard: "It's a plan." ”
Shen Zhaocheng snorted: "They seem to have guessed that you would come." ”
"Actually, it's easy to guess."
Shang Jiu was nine years old, but there was no fear, and there was no hesitation, Ning people have always done things like this, as long as there is a glimmer of opportunity, they will not give up their siblings, this is the fundamental reason why the Daning soldiers are strong rather than any tactics to cooperate, in the case that there is no special difference in weapons and formations, fighting spirit and affection are another key factor in whether a team can win.
There is still a signal in his arms, if the signal does not hit, Mr. Shen and Hong Shiniang will come in at the agreed time.
But Shang Jiu didn't hesitate to call the signal, it was agreed, as soon as the signal rose into the sky, Mr. Shen and Hong Shiniang would leave immediately and go to the Daning Barracks two hundred miles away to find support.
The signal shone brightly in the night sky, brighter than the stars.
To the east of the camp was the highest wall, and inside the wall was a storehouse, which was built very strongly, so the Ning army quickly withdrew inside.
"They want to hold on?"
Luan Baishi snorted: "A house, no matter how strong it is, can it be kept?" ”
He stretched out his hand and pointed: "Burn!" ”
"Don't burn!"
Song Mouyuan grabbed him: "You should believe me, if you burn it, it will delay time." ”
"What do you mean, sir?"
Song Mouyuan said: "Are there people outside the high wall?" ”
"No, they can't get out at all."
"They'll be able to get out."
Song Mouyuan said: "You should be able to see it, they didn't panic a little when they withdrew, obviously they had been preparing for a long time, you thought they were going to stick to it so they were going to burn the house, and once they burned you, they would wait until the fire was extinguished before they could go in, they had already fled, believe me..... Send someone outside the wall to intercept it, I hope it's still too late. ”
