Chapter 536 - On a hot day, Huang Nigang, a man with a roe head and a rat
On the side of Yu Jiatuan, the Daimyo Mansion, Wu Song, who had been drinking with Xiao Tang, Han Shizhong, Shi Bao and others for several days, finally set off to return to the Western Army to restore his life.
Although Han Shizhong has decided to gather with the heroes under Xiao Tang, I am afraid that when the military department investigates it, he will also find Wu Song for investigation, but although the relationship between the two is good in the western army, one of them is from Qinghe County, Enzhou, East Road, Hebei, and the other is from Yan'an Mansion, Yan'an Road, and they are also taking advantage of the peace in the border court, and they are each visiting relatives in the name of returning to their hometowns to take leave, so it is because Han Shizhong does not say goodbye, and Wu Song will not be implicated in being held accountable by the military department.
Even at that time, because Han Shizhong trampled to death Zeng Kui, the fourth son of the Zeng family, Zeng Tou City made people frame and sent someone to his subordinate command to report and arrest him, now that the first family of Zeng Tou City has been wiped out by Xiao Tang's several mountains and horses, no one will pursue this headless public case anymore.
Rao is Western Army may have someone in the Western Army who will contact Wu Song because of Han Shizhong's murder in the Hebei region, but without evidence, it is impossible for this army guarding the border court to allocate people to investigate and scrutinize, and it is necessary to link Han Shizhong's departure from the army with Wu Song's return to his hometown.
What's more, without Zengtou City, which is making waves, Xiao Jiaji's influence on the official side of Hebei is still very large, and behind it is also related to the strong men and horses of Erlong Mountain and Qingfeng Mountain who can't even provoke the surrounding officials and troops in the Qingzhou territory.
After sending each other for a few miles, after Wu Song said goodbye to Xiao Tang and the others, he had already gone very freely and decisively, but Xiao Tang noticed that he wanted to speak several times and stopped, as if he still had some words to tell and consol, but he didn't seem to know where to start.
Mei Zhan, Shi Bao, Zhejiang Silong and other new Jiangnan heroes who joined Juyi were also ready to follow Xiao Tang's instructions, each received gold and money, and went south to Wuyi Mountain Dazhai on Fujian Road first, paying attention to the purchase of sea ships, recruiting displaced people in the Jiangnan region, and trying to negotiate with Pang Wanchun, who gathered in Baiyun Mountain, Wenzhou, Liangzhejiang Road. And Han Shizhong has also returned to Erlongshan, preparing to take the sea route to Baozhou in Liaodong with the Ji Shan army led by the head of the three mountains in western Beijing.
However, there is also a henchman brother who also got Xiao Tang's secret order, and with Han Shizhong, Yuan Lang, Yu Qi and other leaders to Baozhou, they only said that they were going to help Yan Qing, who was currently staying in Baozhou, to act, and this person who was sent by Xiao Tang was exactly the time to move on the drum.
Let's say that Shi Xiu, Yang Lin, Xue Yong, and Shi Yong, the four stewards who were ordered to escort the birth gang, as well as the leaders of the Xiao family militia group led by Bian Xiang and Fu Xiang, who accompanied them all the way, were also ready to go, and took the darts to Bianliang, Tokyo.
It's just that Shi Xiu, Yang Lin and the others who escorted the Shengchengang feel quite uncomfortable that Xie Laodu, the grandmother in Liang Zhongshu's mansion, was in charge of Liang Shijie's payment letter in Bianjing Cai's mansion, and two Yu Houguan also had to accompany him all the way. But since Xie Duguan and the others sent a letter to Cai's mansion on Liang Shijie's order, they had to be detained by them.
After the Xiao dart line received the birthday gang in the Liang Mansion, and took the big road to Tokyo Bianliang Hao's mighty march, all the way was up to the fifth watch, taking advantage of the early cool, and resting in the middle of the day. After more than ten days, there are fewer people along the way, and the road is sparse, and most of the stations are mountain roads. Fortunately, Shi Xiu, Yang Lin and others set off in time, and the preparations were very sufficient all the way, so although the weather was very hot and difficult to walk, the dart masters, Xiang Yong and others who escorted the birthday gang all the way were also able to survive.
However, when the group of cars passed through the rugged trails of the South Mountain and the North Ridge, when everyone pulled the van and the Taiping car out of the mountain, everyone was hot and tired, and they were so tired that they seemed to have to take off a few layers of skin. But see:
The heat is steaming, and the noise is overwhelming. Thousands of miles are like retorts, and a round of umbrellas is on the same day. There are no clouds in the four fields, the wind is lonely, the trees are burning the streams; A thousand mountains are scorching, and the stones will be peeled off, and the ashes will fly. The birds of the air are dying, and they fall into the depths of the woods; At the bottom of the water, the scales and horns of the fish and dragons fell off and went straight into the mud cellar. The direct teaching stone tiger is breathless, and the iron man must sweat.
"Straight sissy thief! It's hot like this, and you don't kill people in the sun! Shi Xiu wiped the sweat on his face and couldn't help scolding angrily.
At this time, most of the dart masters, whips, and coachmen took off the cool hats they wore on their heads at this time, and fanned them weakly, and the green gauze shirts they wore were already soaked with stinky sweat. In this steamer-like weather, everyone had just tried their best to pull the chariot out of the mountains, and everyone was exhausted and very depressed under the scorching sun.
"San Lang, there is a pine forest in front of Gangzi, just right to go and rest and enjoy the coolness."
Yang Linfang said to himself, and immediately came to Shi Xiu's side, and said in a low voice: "After the past few years, I am naturally very familiar with this path. The post in front is the Huangni Gang! ”
Shi Xiu's eyes froze, he snorted coldly, and said: "In such a hot weather, and just out of that rugged mountain, anyone who arrives here is already sleepy and tired, but it is indeed the best place to rob the Birth Gang!" ”
Yang Lin said again: "Brother Bian Xiang and Brother Fu Xiang have led twenty villagers to go to the sentry posts. Since we have enough manpower and have been prepared for it, even if the person my brother said really wants to rob this birth gang, we will not be afraid of him. It's just that in this hot summer, the brothers are indeed tired and toiling at the moment, and we must also recuperate and recharge our energy before we can deal with the gang of gangsters who are very likely to come back and rob the darts. ”
Shi Xiu nodded, and then shouted, "Brothers! Although it is said that the hot sun is going to steam and kill, and everyone can't go away in the heat, but the scorching sun is also hard! Rush to the front post, there is a pine forest, just right to rest! ”
The scorching heat of the dart masters, Xiang Yong, as well as the companion Xie Duguan and the two Yu Hou heard Shi Xiu say this, so they barely cheered up, and each pushed the Taiping car, drove the van car straight towards the Tugangzi. When everyone rushed to the Huangnigang, they saw that this post was born with 10,000 green trees on the top, and the roots were full of yellow sand. Saga-like old dragon shape, steep but smelling wind and rain. The thatch on the side of the mountain, the swords and guns are scattered all over the place; The ground is full of stones, and cocoa sleeps two rows of tigers and leopards.
Seeing that although this yellow mud gang was born precipitously, there was indeed a green and lush pine forest on the post, a group of dart masters and villagers immediately drove the car to the side of the pine forest, and rushed to the pine shade tree to rest in the cool air.
Unlike most of the sluggish dart drivers, Shi Xiu's pair of tricks were very clear, and he was paying full attention to the surrounding terrain. At this time, Yang Lin, Shi Yong, and Xue Yong also stepped forward and said: "This time, the dart master of the bodyguard, together with the whip and the coachman who drove the car, and then counting the hundred townsmen led by Brother Bian Xiang, let's add up to two or three hundred people, even if the Chao Heavenly King really plans to rob the Birth Gang, I am afraid that he will have to weigh his own weight." Rao is the gang wants to take it by force, and when they want to make trouble, it is easier to leak their reputation, unless they have the intention of falling into the grass to avoid the lawsuit now. ”
Xue Yong frowned and said, "But...... That Chao Tianwang is also a well-known good man in the rivers and lakes, he really doesn't care about Brother Xiao Tang's face, so he must come to the bad dart shop to make a living? ”
"Although Chao Gai has a good reputation in the rivers and lakes, he has never had much interaction with his brother in the past, and now his brother is acting in a fake death, and with Liu Tang's instigation, who knows what his idea will be?"
Shi Xiu paused and said, "But...... That Chao Gai is only likely to come to rob the dart, I also hope that we are worried about the sky, but it is just a false alarm, and it will save Liang Shijie's handful of birds to honor Cai Jing's birthday, and in vain with those heroes with a good reputation on the road. ”
But just as Shi Xiu was discussing with Yang Lin, Xue Yong, and Shi Yong under the pine forest, in a dense forest not far from Huangnigang, a man saw Shi Xiu, Yang Lin and others leading a chariot to the pine forest on the hill to rest.
Seeing that the man was born with roe deer, small and thin, and a man with two beards on his lips, he was happy again, and secretly thought in his heart: Originally, he was going to outwit the Shengchenggang in this Huangnigang, but Professor Wu deserved to be praised as a Zhiduoxing figure, he had expected that Xiao Tang, the master of the Xiao dart line who was scheduled to escort the Shengchengang, would be extravagant in the rivers and lakes, even if he had died in Liaodong, but with his reputation in the rivers and lakes during his lifetime, the dart line that escorted the Shengchengang must also send additional manpower and fanfare to Tokyo. A strong man who is still willing to do a little favor with Xiao Renxia will not rob the dart......
There are a lot of people in this dart, and the method of changing the sweat medicine under the wine is useless, but Professor Wu is also very fine, and he has already thought of a better way to earn this birthday gang, spare you This guy has a lot of people and is strictly guarded, and after a while, he will also fall for Professor Wu's plan! No, it's time for me to prepare.
The man thought in his heart, and then quietly stood up, and walked down the mountain, and as he walked, he still hummed a little song in his mouth: "The red sun is scorching like fire, and the fields and rice are half scorched." The farmer's heart is like soup boiling, and the prince and grandson shake the fan ......"
