———— the following text————

In all fairness, Zhao Hongrun really didn't expect that Jin Gou, the leader of the Fuqiu people, would take the initiative to come to see him in the middle of the night, and vaguely put forward a request to exchange his life for a chance to take refuge in him.

Yes, it's a request.

Because from Jin Gou's face and eyes, it can be inferred that this person is most likely the kind of yin owl who is ruthless, but he behaved very humbly in front of Zhao Hongrun, if it weren't for Jin Gou's self-stated identity, Zhao Hongrun would not have thought that this old man who looked energetic was the leader of the Yangxia Fuqiu people.

That's a ...... Accidentally.

I have to say that the incident in front of him caught Zhao Hongrun by surprise.

You must know that as far as he knows, most of the hidden thieves in Yangxia are those who are unruly, so Zhao Hongrun has long been ready to fight a protracted battle with him, while secretly dispatching the main force of Wu Ji's merchant army, and then asking the Smelting Bureau to build a hidden arrow specially used to deal with the hidden thief, just to have a head-to-head battle with the hidden thief in Yangxia assassination and anti-assassination.

Unexpectedly, the deployment on his side was not yet ready, but Jin Gou personally took the initiative to come to the door and ask for refuge, which made Zhao Hongrun feel a sense of depression that he struggled to throw a punch but hit the air.

You must know that the Fuqiu people are the masterminds who assassinated him one after another, and the tragedy of Yangxia County's Ling Ma Qian is most likely inseparable from the Fuqiu people, so in Zhao Hongrun's heart, the Fuqiu people have already been included in the list of must-be punishments, and the ranking is far higher than the rest of the Yangxia hidden thieves such as Yiqiu Zhong and Youma Zhong.

But it was Fuqiu Zhong who took the lead in revealing his heart to ask for submission, which made Zhao Hongrun feel ...... It's disgusting.

Yes, disgusting, rather depressed and disgusting.

“……”

For dozens of breaths, Zhao Hongrun didn't say a word, and looked at Jin Gou intently.

He was weighing the pros and cons of accepting the Fuqiu people's submission.

It is undeniable that the strength of the Fuqiu people is quite strong, and they can definitely be called one of the few big hidden thieves in Yangxia County, if they can get the submission and full support of the Fuqiu people, Zhao Hongrun will naturally be able to recover Yangxia more smoothly, and there is also a chance to wipe out the rest of the hidden thieves in Yangxia County, so as not to let these hidden thieves escape to the neighboring county seats, which will have a negative impact on public security.

But the question is, if he accepts the submission of the Fuqiu people, then how should he calculate the account of Zhao Hongrun's assassination on the way a few days ago? What should be done with the account of the Yangxia County Ling Ma Qian, who was driven crazy?

Zhao Hongrun, who has always been decisive, can't help but hesitate a little now.

Reason told him that there was no harm in accepting the Fuqiu people's submission, but on the emotional side, it urged Zhao Hongrun to give these bold thieves the punishment they deserved.

After thinking about it for dozens of breaths, Zhao Hongrun still hesitated, looked at Jin Gou and said with a complicated expression: "You really have a problem for this king." ”

After that, a hint of strange color flashed in his eyes, and he asked, "Are you really the head of the Fuqiu people, old man?" ”

Jin Gou hugged his fists, and said humbly but confidently: "Your Royal Highness King Su, in this Yangxia, the old man thinks that no one dares to pretend to be the old man. ”

"Hmph." Zhao Hongrun snorted noncommittally, and then asked Jin Gou curiously: "This king is really puzzled, it is clear that it is this king who is losing now, why do you want to take refuge in this king?" ”

"Defeat?" Jin Hook's eyes rolled slightly, and he said with a smile: "King Su refers to the fact that the arsenal guarded by the Shang Shui Army was captured by the hidden thieves and rangers in the city?" …… In the eyes of the old man, it was just King Su's strategy to delay the army, and I believe that those fools who were complacent because they had the upper hand would be killed by King Su in a short time. ”

After that, he raised his head and said respectfully: "King Su doesn't need to test the old man anymore, the old man has already learned that King Su secretly sent a team of people to Shangshui, if the old man is not mistaken, this team must have gone to Shangshui for help......"

……

Zhao Hongrun frowned secretly, and then said tentatively: "Hehe, Shang Shui...... Hearing you say this, this king remembered that there are still 5,000 Shangshui troops stationed in Shangshui County. ”

Jin Gou smiled slightly, revealing a look of King Su, don't pretend not to know.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun's mind relaxed a little, because he had already judged from the expression on Jin Gou's face that this person only suspected that he went to Shangshui to mobilize the 5,000 merchant water army, but did not expect that his real intention Zhao Hongrun was to mobilize the main force of the Shang Navy army far away in Daliang and let him take the transport ship of the Xiacang Department of the Household Department to come to Yangxia along the waterway.

This made Zhao Hongrun breathe a sigh of relief.

After all, if Jin Gou could even guess his true intentions, then the vision of the head of the Fuqiu crowd would inevitably be too high-end.

Anyway, it's okay, although this person has some eyesight, but his vision hasn't reached that point after all.

Thinking of this, Zhao Hongrun said with a smile: "It's just that there are thousands of merchant and water armies, and my husband won't be afraid to the point of begging for surrender, right?" ”

Unexpectedly, Jin Gou shook his head when he heard this, and said frankly: "The old man is not afraid of adding thousands of merchant water troops, even if the merchant water army in Yangxia City has increased from four thousand to nearly ten thousand, the old man is confident that the merchant water army will not be able to really shake the foundation of my Fuqiu people." …… The old decay does not hide from the king of Su, the foundation of my Fuqiu people is far away in Geyang Mountain in the northeast outside the county. ”

Zhao Hongrun was stunned, and said with a smile: "It is so easy to reveal the details to this king, does the old man think it is appropriate?" ”

Hearing this, Jin Gou Thief laughed twice and said in a low voice: "King Su, we, the people of Fuqiu, have been surrounded and suppressed by the imperial court several times before and after that hill, and we have already taken precautions. To put it irreverently, even if King Su mobilized more than 100,000 troops to surround Geyang Mountain, set up barriers everywhere, and surrounded us for a year and a half, he would not be able to trap us to death. …… In order to guard against the imperial court sending troops to encircle and suppress us, we have already hoarded food in the mountains and forests that can be used for several years. …… Oh, by the way, even if King Su set fire to the mountain, it would be useless, because the camp of my Fuqiu people was built by hollowing out the mountain.

"......" Zhao Hongrun frowned.

After listening to Jin Gou's words, he finally realized why the army sent by the imperial court many times in the past to encircle and suppress it returned in vain every time.

After thinking about it, he said with some displeasure: "No wonder you have no fear, old man...... However, if you have no fear, why should you take refuge in this king? ”

Jin Gou smiled and said in a low voice: "If you can live under the sun, why hide in the gutter?" …… If King Su really summoned more than 100,000 troops and surrounded Geyang Mountain for a year and a half, even if he couldn't shake the people of Fuqiu, he would give me wait...... Well, it's a big obstacle. ”

"You're being sincere." Zhao Hongrun suddenly realized, and said with a bit of ridicule and ridicule.

"Thank you King Su for your compliment." Jin Gou lowered his head, as if he didn't hear the ridicule in Zhao Hongrun's words.

Zhao Hongrun looked at Jin Gou and thought for a while, and suddenly, he asked, "Old man, if this king refuses to submit to the Fuqiu people, what will you do?" Did you kill this king? ”

Hearing this, Shen Yu, the head of the sect guard who was nearby, suddenly became vigilant, holding the hilt of the sword in his right hand, ready to unsheath the sword at any time.

However, after listening to Zhao Hongrun's words, Jin Gou did not show any hostility, shook his head and said, "Of course not." …… At most, it is just to reveal King Su's intentions to those people in Yiqiu and create some trouble for King Su, as for my Fuqiu people, I will immediately hide in Geyang Mountain, and ensure that King Su will not be found afterwards. ”

…… It's a really hard trick.

Zhao Hongrun glanced at Jin Gou with a little depression and asked, "Why don't you kill this king?" Didn't you assassinate this king one after another a few days ago? ”

"This time and that time." Jin Gou shook his head and explained: "At that time, King Su, you had not yet entered the territory of Yangxia County, and if you were assassinated, there was no evidence to prove that it was my Fuqiu people. …… But right now, King Su is in Yangxia, and if he is assassinated again, I will not be able to escape the relationship. …… The old man just said that the old man is not afraid of the nearly 10,000 merchant army, and what the old man cares about is only your identity from beginning to end. ”

"Aren't you afraid of the imperial army?"

"Fear or fear, and whether you want to get into trouble, these are two different things." Jin Gou said bluntly: "If my Fuqiu people become a thorn in the side of the monarch, even if I can escape a temporary disaster, I can't escape the ...... for a lifetime."

Zhao Hongrun naturally understood the deep meaning of Jin Gou's words.

You must know that the reason why the hidden thieves in Yangxia can be leisurely in Yangxia at the moment is because Zhao Hongrun and his father, Emperor Wei Tianzi, did not pay attention to these people. After all, compared with the tense relations with South Korea, the Yangxia hidden thief is not even a minor illness like a cold and flu, at best it is just a sneeze, but if Zhao Hongrun really died in the hands of these Yangxia hidden thieves, and the evidence is conclusive, there is no need to guess what kind of attitude Wei Tianzi will have.

At that time, the Son of Heaven was furious, how could he compete with the entire Wei State?

What a headache......

Zhao Hongrun finally realized the mood of the military department towards Yangxia's gang of thieves: sending a small army could not be exterminated; But if a large number of troops are sent to surround Geyang Mountain, these thieves have already hoarded food, and if they don't surround it for a year and a half, they won't be in pain at all.

And on the side of the imperial court, how much grain, grass and military pay will it cost to send more than 100,000 troops to besiege Geyang Mountain?

I have to say that this kind of bandit is the most headache and disgusting, you don't see the huge Chu State, and the Chu Dong nobles who are far more powerful than the Chu West of Xuancheng Jun Xiong Tuo, are dragged to death by the people of Wu Yue in the south? Almost every time the Qi State united with the Lu State to crusade against the Chu State, those people of Wu Yue would jump out and rebel, making the Xiong nobles in Chu Dong overwhelmed and unable to extricate themselves from the quagmire.

And now Zhao Hongrun's side is the same, if he can't solve the Yangxia hidden thieves in one go, then it's best not to move them, otherwise, once the northern Korea starts a war against the Wei State, the Yangxia hidden thieves are waiting for the opportunity to make trouble in the Yingshui Army and create chaos, who can stand this?

But if he accepted the submission of the Fuqiu people like this, Zhao Hongrun always felt that there was a bad breath in his heart and it was difficult to vent.

After thinking for a while, Zhao Hongrun decided to throw this question to Jin Gou.

"Convince the king."

Putting away the smile on his face, Zhao Hongrun said solemnly. (To be continued.) )
