The people in the outer circle gradually became stronger, and from time to time they could see the smoke and dust rising, and they could hear the neighing of the horses, which made the officers and soldiers feel extremely shocked. Even so, some nearby villages are still rushing to help, running in the fields in a dozen or dozens of places. Shi Jingsun held down the tumultuous war horse, especially silently, scaring the people in front of him: "You are all crazy." Do you dare to intercept officers and soldiers? Don't want to live anymore? ”

He deliberately did not mention Li Hu.

Could it be that he was surrounded by the people, and he wanted to report Li Hu's name in turn, shouting that he was Li Hu's sworn brother to save himself?

With a wave of their hands, well-trained officers and men erected their weapons, formed a circle, and formed a formation to guard against them.

The two camps were clearly distinguished, and soon they were only a dozen steps apart, and the officers and soldiers approached again, and the people no longer gave in, but were waiting for Li Hu, and they said: "Go find Li Hu quickly, and ask him what these officers and soldiers want to do." When Li Hu walked to the entrance of the village, someone gave way for him to go all the way to Shi Jingsun.

Li Hu hugged Shi Jingsun and asked him enthusiastically: "Brother came to the door as a guest, why didn't you say it in advance?" ”

Shi Jingsun still refused to give up his heart of deterrence, looked around, and said coldly: "Originally." Can now? Look at it, can you still take care of it? ”

He "snorted" a few times to express his contempt, and suddenly shouted, his voice like a thunderclap in the clear sky: "Do you want to rebel?" ”

There was a quiet moment all around, and then there was a lot of noise again.

Everyone wants to argue, but they don't know what they're talking about.

Li Hu gave them palms, waited for the people to calm down, and said with a smile: "Brother came to see me, with soldiers, it's a bit grand, it's misunderstood, no wonder folks, you bring hundreds of people, if it is Suo Ding, we will not be able to arrest you." ”

He turned around and shouted, "Disperse." My sworn brother came to see me, and the pomp was a bit big. ”

Shi Jingsun didn't dare to pretend anymore.

He showed enthusiasm, jumped off the horse to find Li Hu to hug, and pointed to the people around him, and deliberately said: "I thought they were going to rebel, shouldn't they all come up at you?" Oh. Brother. You are in the countryside, you are simply a hundred calls, you are scared of being a brother, envy of death as a brother, envy of death. ”

His eyelids twitched, and he swept them again, and felt that there seemed to be more people.

In the evening, Li Hu held a banquet and entertained him, and it was dark, and some people came in groups with torches.

When they arrived, the people who were the leaders of the village would surely come inside and shout, "Are you all right?" It's okay, let's go back. ”

I really felt that they ran dozens of miles, and it was not easy to come, so the Yang family asked Fang Hai to send them money to buy tea, some of them took it, some of them said that they didn't take anything, and said loudly, "I am planting the land of the owner", "The owner has a job to find me", even the pavilion chief Wang brought people to arrive as soon as possible, he was the pavilion chief appointed by the government, and after he came, he was arranging for others not to say who he was, saying that he was afraid that the government would not want to.

The most surprising thing is that nomads also came. Li Hu tried to repair the relationship with them, sent people to them, taught them how to farm, and gave them some farm tools, and they still did not have much contact with the locals, but there was a difference. They came from the horse town, the road was far away, although they rode horses, but they came the latest, and they didn't say that they came to help Li Hu, but asked: "Come to us, let's pull." ”

Shi Jingsun's heart has never been calm.

Li Hu asked him to change his mind again, although it was difficult to ensure that the people in distant places wanted to find someone to provoke and resist Suo Ding, but Li Hu's prestige could be seen. Shi Jingsun thought in his heart, could it be the same as me bringing troops here, did he just let me see how many people in the township were willing to listen to him?

The most important thing is that he saw another Li Hu, outside, in front of the officialdom and gentry, Li Hu was arrogant and first-class, and he did not stand at the door to pick up people at the civil stone conference, but in the countryside, in front of these mud legs, whenever someone came, he must have asked Shi Jingsun to wait, and then go out to thank him, and at the banquet, he had to invite the old farmers in the countryside to sit on the top, saying that he was an elder, and he also toasted with people from time to time, holding bowls with both hands, and was meticulous in etiquette.

Shi Jingsun's eyelids kept jumping.

He was glad that he had chosen the right way under the advice of the strategists, and his observation had not been wrong, Li Hu was by no means simple.

He took out the way that he often came to the martial arts banquet, and secretly asked his subordinates to find someone to fight for wine and wrestle, and aimed at Tuli Niu, who was almost inseparable from Li Hu.

Wine, Turi Niu drank, but not much, endured so much saliva was flowing out, and wrestling, he would not end up by himself, they all shouted, calling in a good man.

After a few wrestlings, those brothers under Shi Jingsun were all born and died with him, and they had gone through battles, but they did not have the upper hand at all, and they lost more than they won.

After drinking a lot of wine, Shi Jingsun staggered to his feet.

He began to recount his life, babbling and saying, "Li Hu." In fact, I also grew up in the countryside, and I didn't have enough food and clothing, and when I joined the army, I thought that I might be full, what do you say, the old pawn grabbed the food, when it came to me, the rice bucket was empty, and when it came to me, the rice bucket was empty, and finally one day, I couldn't help it, a stone buckled the head of an old pawn, and I asked him to take the lead in grabbing?! A group of people surrounded me and beat me, and I was almost killed, but I came back to life, and this time I was over, and I finally had enough to eat. ”

He said: "Lucky enough, Liu Ou, the captain of our battalion, said that I was ruthless enough, and I also had strength, I could ride a horse and shoot arrows, so he took me with me." Xiahou Wulu and Gao Xianbing attacked Beizhou, in the east of Baojun, he was killed in battle, I ran forward, to save him, he turned around, waved his hand to me, let me escape, just waved my hand, held his Gao Xianbing cut off his head with a knife, buckled in his hand to chase me. ”

Li Hu got up and drank a bowl with him.

He stood there and staggered and said, "Li Hu." You have to trust me. I'm different from some people, believe it or not, although I also kill people and ask for money, but I won't keep it to myself, except for armor, war horses, and ordnance, all my belongings add up, and it may not necessarily exceed a thousand taels. ”

He added: "It's all this money that is used to socialize with people and socialize. ”

He waved his arms and said, "I want money, and I will be rich immediately, but there is a group of brothers behind me." If I can't share the weal and sorrow with them and take care of them, Liu Ouzi won't want to, right? How many times has he been staring at me. ”

Some of the brothers he brought with him stood up unconsciously, their eyes full of tears.

Shi Jingsun said: "Although I also kill people, I think more about saving people. I ask people, if you don't save anyone, I want to have an army in hand, I want to make a good future, give the people a guarantee, and let them farm with peace of mind. ”

He glared at two eyes and asked Li Hu, "Do you believe in Brother?" ”

He yelled, "Do you believe in Brother? ”

He begged, "Come and help my brother." I have thousands of brothers. What you say is what I say, and they will do whatever you want them to do, and your command is my command. ”

Li Hu laughed, don't stop his wine bowl and don't let him drink it anymore, but Shi Jingsun had to drink it, the tendons on his wrists came out, the bowl was pressed to his face, the corners of his mouth were pulled, and he said fiercely: "Do you think Brother can drink it?" His strength became greater and greater, and Li Hu gradually increased his strength, and finally Shi Jingsun arched his back, and Li Hu raised his shoulders to one side.

As the wine bowl fell to the ground with a "snap", the field was suddenly silent, and Li Hu's laughter immediately sounded again. He said to the people next to him, including those Shi Jingsun's men, "Brother is drunk, I can't let him drink anymore." ”

Shi Jingsun looked at Li Hu in disbelief, the flames in his eyes gradually retracted, and then looked at the ground, which was a wine bowl that had been broken into eight petals.

He said, "Yes." Half in the bag. Li Hu. You live up to your reputation. I'm drunk. Wake up tomorrow, let's talk about it again, I really have something to talk to you about. ”

Shi Jingsun said that he drank too much, so he would naturally let people take him away and quit the table.

Li Hu wanted to arrange for him to live in the stone quarry and keep him.

Shi Jingsun yelled: "I received my brother's kindness, but the soldiers are sleeping outside, how can my brother drill into the house, don't worry, it's cool outside." It's also cool. ”

Shouting "cool" all the way, he and a few of his brothers returned to the camp outside the village.

When he arrived at the camp, he separated and supported his brother, signaled for a long time, and asked the brother to take out the same posture as Li Hu, and himself, as if he was holding a wine bowl in the void, had to send it to his mouth, the brother pinned his arm, tried several times, he won, he gasped and said, "Li Hu is still a teenager." I am a veteran of the three armies, who was once famous for the three armies. We have also fought against the Dongxia people, and seeing that he still has the strength to stand, he must at least be above the ninth level of the Black Hawk. ”

One of his subordinates said, "I heard that the Eastern Xia warriors have thirteen levels, and there is something great about the ninth level. ”

Shi Jingsun said angrily: "I know what a fart." One by one, they don't learn and don't pay attention to the world's major events. I don't know the gap with the northerners. You must know that the vast majority of people, the body is almost the same, is on a line, in Dongxia, the fifth level or above is already a fierce pawn, belongs to the brave and good fighting generation, arm strength, waist strength has its own requirements, and to the seventh level, open the bow of three stones, carry hundreds of pounds of stones, is already among the fierce generals, to the ninth level, it is simply rare, although there are several levels higher, there are also thirteen level fierce generals, but you don't know, the previous thirteen-level standard is a pity, I'm afraid it is only the current ten-level, eleventh level, Lao Tzu said that he is above the ninth level, Then he is the one who is about to be topped. ”

One of his subordinates said, "Not really." Big brother, you are drunk, but he Li Hu didn't drink much. ”

Shi Jingsun was still a sycophant, so he stopped talking, and after a while, he called two people to his side, isolated everyone, and muttered something in private.

The circle is smaller, Shi Jingsun said: "Mr. Xin's judgment is right, Li Hu will be an important figure in Dongxia, he is definitely yes, it really can't be fake." Is it fifteen years old that there is nothing to pursue, but young is for sure, you must know that Dongxia established the country with martial arts, such a young ninth-level general, can he be willing to let him go to the people? That's impossible. This can understand why he was able to borrow so much money and recruit so many high-quality Eastern Xia warriors. It also explains why he is so arrogant when he sees everyone, and I came to the right place. ”

One of his subordinates said, "Big brother, do you want to think about it again?" Why do you want to expel Miao Baotian so much, what if Tian Qimin brings troops to help? ”

Shi Jingsun said calmly: "If we really want to get to that point, let's fight Tian Qimin together." Military expenses, the county guard gave Miao Baotian half of it, we don't even dare to fight, after a long time, what do the brothers eat? Qingxiang Sodin? Isn't it bad for your reputation to spend money on the military in this way? Let Miao Baotian do it. Baojun is our root, we can't harm ourselves, after negotiating with Li Hu, as long as I can solve the problem of eating, I will refuse to clear the township Suodin first. ”

He asked, "Will you do it with me?" ”

Two large hands pressed against the back of his hand.

Three pairs of eyes shine in the dark night.

Shi Jingsun said again: "I have many friends in the Shi clan, and many people have been telling me about the benefits and disadvantages of Qingxiang Suoding, and I don't have time to be hot, but Miao Baotian is still greedy, and is willing to exchange his station for me to change Qingxiang Suoding's business." He didn't know that I was the Honorable Clan, and that I was the difference between me and him. I am not greedy for small profits, which is the difference between me and him. He stood up and said, "He is a martial artist, he doesn't understand what Jinpo City can be used for, if Li Hu is from Dongxia, he can use Jinpo City to smuggle, this is enough for him to agree to our conditions." Being able to see the value of a thing, even if it's just a mound of earth, that's the difference between me and him. He said, "Once the seedlings are expelled, I will be able to defeat them, and the county guards who have colluded with him will also be thrown out." At that time, we will keep the county safe. You have seen Li Hu's majesty, whoever can keep Ding Zhuang and let them farm with peace of mind will respond to every call, and there will be no shortage of soldiers or food. ”

He also said: "When Captain Liu Ou died, I made up my mind that we must no longer live like animals, being driven to the battlefield and having our heads cut off. ”

He clasped his hands, shook them lightly, and shouted categorically: "We must control our own destiny and no longer let people abuse us at will." ”
