That's right! The brothers sent to buy grain have been gone for two days, but why is there no news at all?

He Zhenbei suddenly didn't know how to answer, the person was sent by him, but there was no news so far, seeing the general asking, his face was also sneering: "General, maybe I didn't find food, it's somewhere else." 【Latest chapter reading. 】”

It can't be absconding with money, right?

Mo Li is a person from later generations, who has seen a lot of things on the dark side of Y, and habitually uses the thinking of later generations to consider problems.

What's more, it is not uncommon in this era, like the rebel marshal Li Jiucheng, didn't he just give Sun Yuanhua to him to buy horses and use the money to gamble, so he instigated Kong Youde to pull the flag and rebel!

As he was talking, Sima Jian suddenly hurriedly ran in and said, "General, Ma Ergou is back, it's just ......"

"Ergou is back? Just what? Didn't get any food? Ma Ergou is one of the few people sent by He Zhenbei to buy grain, and when he heard that he was back, He Zhenbei immediately asked happily, thinking that he had not bought food, and it was a big deal to go into Laizhou City tomorrow to buy it.

"It's not." Who knows, Sima Jian's face was very ugly, I saw him turn his head to look at Mo Li, and said sadly: "General, Ma Ergou was seriously injured!" ”

"What?"

Everyone was taken aback. Even if you don't buy food, why are you still seriously injured?

"What's going on?" Mo Li said a little angrily. Damn, who is so bold, if you don't sell it, you won't sell it, why do you hurt officers and soldiers?

Sima Jian beckoned outside, and after a while, he saw two personal soldiers walking in with Ma Ergou, who was covered in injuries.

Ma Ergou grudgingly saluted Mo Li with a fist, and said sadly: "General, the humble duty has finally returned!" ”

"Ma Ergou, what's going on with you? Why did you hurt so badly? What about the others? Before Mo Li could speak, He Zhenbei had already asked a series of questions. Ma Ergou was sent by him to buy food, and now that Ma Ergou has an accident, he is naturally more anxious than anyone else.

"General, sir, everyone else ...... They're all dead! Ma Ergou choked, and two lines of tears couldn't help but roll down.

"What did you say?!" Mo Li was taken aback and stood up. The generals also stood up, almost unable to believe the news. What happened to the food purchasing team? Did you run into a rebel?

"It's a dog mongrel from Kyohing! Yesterday, not long after we left the station, we only walked about 30 miles, and we encountered an ambush in a place called Yangjia Village, which was plagued by the rebels a while ago, and now the village is empty, and the brothers are tired of walking, so they say that they will rest in the village and then leave, but who knows that dozens of masked people suddenly rushed out, and they cut down without saying a word, and the brothers were hacked to death at once......" Ma Ergou said sadly and angrily, telling the story of the incident as it was.

"Brethren...... Gone? He Zhenbei's eyes were about to erupt with fire.

"It's all gone! My lord, the brethren are gone! Checkmate! The brothers died unjustly! Ma Ergou was almost crying, and his eyes were almost bleeding, "Originally, I didn't know who was ambushing us, but when we were fighting with those masked people, the lowly was accidentally knocked down by their war horse and almost passed out, and the lowly was trying to get up, but he was crushed under the last brother, and he was already dead!"

When all our brethren were dead, the lowly thought that he could not fail to report this to the general, so he pretended to be dead and remained motionless...... Later, when he heard the masked men laughing, one of them said, 'My father-in-law is like a god!' These new Liao troops are really going to slip away, haha! Fortunately, my father-in-law has already arranged ......'"

"And then?" He Zhenbei hurriedly asked.

"Later, I heard another person say, 'Lord Zeng, although these new Liao troops have been killed, do you want to check again to prevent anyone from slipping through the net?'

But Lord Zeng said, 'No, now that our father-in-law Gao has a heavy army, are you afraid of what kind of storm he will leave?' In a few days, the new Liao army will be finished! ’

The man from before also laughed and said, "That's right! Even if Mo Li knows, it doesn't matter, and now his father-in-law is still afraid that he won't cause trouble! Ha ha! Then he fainted. Ma Ergou said.

"Raise up and dive a dog—god!" Mo Li was furious, slapped his palm on the humble table, and scolded angrily.

I can't imagine that Gao Qiqian is so vicious, not only did he not provide himself with food and grass, but also killed the people he sent to buy food! This is clearly intended to provoke Moli,* the rhythm of his rebellion.

But if he rebels, he will obviously fall into the trap of his high and low potential, and then he will mobilize all the troops and horses he can mobilize to encircle and suppress him, and will never give himself the slightest chance to live.

Thinking of this, thinking of the words of those murderers, Mo Li couldn't help but secretly rejoice in the restraint under Laizhou City just now, and resisted the urge to beat up and dive, otherwise he would definitely die now without a place to be buried.

All the generals are also angry, and all the people are high and dive into this thief and deceive people too much.

Ma Ergou said again: "The humble duty did not wake up until this morning, and found that the brothers were all dead, and the humble duty originally wanted to bury the brothers, but then I thought about it, the general must not know about this matter, and he must report it to the general immediately, and the humble duty was seriously injured, and he was unable to bury the brothers, so he rushed all the way to Laizhou, fortunately found the general...... Please send someone to bring the brothers back for burial. ”

Mo Li nodded and said, "Xiao Yang, you send someone to do it." ”

"Yes!" Xiao Yang agreed and went out.

Mo Li asked Ma Ergou to help him down to treat his injuries and arrange some food for him, and he was hungry for a day and a night.

Ma Jinzhong thought about it, stood up, plucked up his courage and said: "General, there is something that the last general doesn't know whether to say or not. ”

Mo Li glanced at Ma Jinzhong in a little surprise, and said, "Everyone here is a good brother, if Brother Ma has anything to say, just say it!" ”

"The general still remembers that when I went to the general's account, I said that I hope to be able to build slaves and thieves under the general's command in the future, even if I go to the soup for this, I will not hesitate! That's why my old horse and a group of brothers are willing to follow the general to serve in the army, and they will never give up! ”

Ma Jinzhong said loudly: "Since following the general, the general has also been very strong, thinking about the brothers everywhere, bringing a lot of confidence to the brothers, leading the brothers to defeat the Jiannu Tartars, and the brothers are very happy!" However, the general should not blame the old horse for saying something unpleasant, but now the brothers have not even landed food and grass, and they are still forced by the eunuch Gao Qiqian, does the general still have to endure it? ”

At this time, Li Guo also stood up and said angrily: "Not bad! Since this thief eunuch is so compelling, he has to put our new Liao army to death, why should the general endure it anymore, in my opinion, we might as well lead the brothers to kill back to Liaodong, and guard our border pass well, why bother to raise up for him to suppress this hole thief rebel! ”

"That's right! Let's go back to Liaodong and strive to kill Jiannu's lair as soon as possible, it is better than being persecuted by this bird eunuch here! After Xiao Yang instructed his subordinates to collect the bodies of the brothers who had been killed, he returned to continue the discussion.

"But have you thought about it, if we draw troops back to Liaodong now, Gao Qiqian will definitely send troops to intercept him, and then he will say that our new Liao army will not listen to the order, and it will be enough to clean us up before the battle, even if we are all killed, the court and the emperor will not say anything about him." Guan Feng said with a worried face.

"That's right! Since Gao Qiqian is deliberately trying to deal with us, then he must be fully prepared, I think he can kill us without even giving us any charges, just like today, if it weren't for the fact that there were outsiders such as Vice General Tao and Vice General Xu, I think this Gao Qiqian would dare to order Jingying and Zu Dacheng to kill us! When the time comes, when we report to the imperial court, they will say that we were all killed in the battle against the rebels, and who knows? Liang Peijun also said.

Everyone suddenly became silent, you look at me, I look at you, no one knows how to speak. Indeed, if there were no outsiders present under Laizhou City in the afternoon, it was estimated that Gao Qiqian would really order the killing of the New Liao Army, and with his recent attitude towards the New Liao Army and the means he adopted, this probability was very high.

In fact, Gao Qiqian really wanted to put Mo Li and die, he and Zu Dacheng were actually not far behind the New Liao Army from the beginning, that is to say, not long after the New Liao Army and the rebels began, Gao Qiqian actually already knew.

But he didn't move. And ordered the ancestors not to go to the battlefield first. He wants to wait for the new Liao army and the rebels to fight for both defeats, and then come out to clean up the mess and reap the benefits of the fishermen.

Later, when he saw that after half a day of bloody battles in the New Liao Army, although he had killed countless enemies, after all, there was a huge difference in strength and he was gradually outnumbered, so he was even more determined to make the decision to watch from the wall.

He wanted Moli to die in a bloody battle with the rebels. That way, he wouldn't have to think hard about how to kill ink and become invisible.

And when the new Liao army is completely wiped out by the rebels, the rebels will inevitably have to pay huge casualties, and there will inevitably be not many troops to fight again. Then the great credit for this battle has fallen into the hands of himself and Zu Dacheng, killing two birds with one stone, why not do it!

With the enmity between Zu Dacheng and Mo Li for killing his brother, he would definitely approve of doing it himself, not to mention that there is such a big credit!

Gao Qiqian's abacus played quite beautifully, and he even seemed to see the tragic situation of Mo Li's exhaustion and death, and at that moment, Gao Qiqian smiled heartily.

Hmph, who told him that Mo Li has been against himself, and even pointed at himself and scolded himself for eating when he was in Pingyang!

It's unbearable!

Just as Gao Qiqian was smiling proudly about to see Mo Li's death, Tao Kewang came with Lu Bing......
