Chapter 3 Drifting (II)

When he got up early the next morning, Dou Jiande sent someone to ask for the red line. He wanted to take the opportunity of having breakfast with the whole family to ease the relationship with his sister, and at the same time, he also wanted to discuss with Red Line about returning to his hometown to build his ancestral grave. Back then, as a green forest tycoon, he was regarded as a thorn in the side of the government, and the ancestral tomb of the family could only be left to be dilapidated. If you can't fix it, if you fix it, you will be picked up by the local gentry. Now he is no longer what he used to be, and the gentry from ten miles and eight towns are in a hurry to pat their ass, and they will naturally not take the risk of demolishing his ancestral grave.

If you don't return to your hometown, it's better to walk at night in brocade. In his bones, Dou Jiande is still a person who attaches great importance to local feelings. He wanted his parents and fellow villagers to know that Dou Jiande was not a heinous thief like the government preached on the notice. For so many years, the stigma on his head has been imposed by the government. In fact, he conforms to all the excellent rules and regulations of the folk tradition, benevolence, righteousness, family affection, and etiquette. On the contrary, the officials who framed him back then were the real villains, hooligans, and disloyal and unfilial villains!

At this juncture, he personally went back to his hometown, which would definitely attract the opposition of Song Zhengben and others. Therefore, the younger sister Hongxian and the late wife's younger brother Wang Fubao became the best substitutes. Moreover, by doing something together, Hongxian and Fu Bao will also recall the old love, lest the two really become resentful couples in the future, making it difficult for him to be an elder brother.

All wishful thinking fell through at the moment when the soldiers came back to report. Dou Hongxian quietly left in the night without saying goodbye. said that she went outside to relax, but no one knew where she went?

"Tie up her pro-soldier Zheng Yao San'er to me!" Dou Jiande was really angry this time, and ordered with a blushing face. "I can't even look at a big living person, what's the use of asking him to be a pro-soldier team? Tied up, I'm going to clean him up with my own hands! ”

"Yao, Team Yao is also walking along. There are also deputy Chen, Zhou and Yang!" The pro-soldier lowered his head and responded with great embarrassment.

"How many people did she take with her? Who was the person on duty last night? Why don't you stop him? Dou Jiande first sighed, and then relaxed his mood a little. With the soldiers around, the safety of the red line can basically be guaranteed. As long as their group of people does not go out of Hebei, it is estimated that there are no local forces who are willing to offend him Dou Jiande.

"Probably, there are probably more than 30 guards with me, and they are all good at choosing and choosing!" The pro-soldier thought about it and gave a more accurate number. "The subordinates just asked the people who stayed, and they all said that the eldest lady personally ordered it, and they were not allowed to tell you. In the second half of last night it was Captain Han who was in charge of the inspection, and he reported that the young lady was leaving with your arrow, and he didn't dare to ask what important task it was! ”

"It's not like words, it's too unlikely!" Dou Jiande stomped his feet hatefully. From the report of the pro-soldiers, he could tell that Dou Hongxian had been prepared this time. Their own arrows are generally placed in the Chinese military tent, and the Chinese military tent is equivalent to never defending the red line. The guards guarding near the Chinese army seemed to be in awe and awe of this fierce lady, and the red line said that he would go in and take away an arrow, even if the entire Chinese army account was rolled, it was estimated that no one would seriously stop him.

This kind of household chores can be extremely troublesome to deal with. It is not permissible to let the brothers see a joke in public, but it is also not permissible to let it go. Pacing angrily for several ***, Dou Jiande didn't come up with a suitable remedy. When he was annoyed, the soldiers came in again to report that Wuyang County had been defeated. General Cao's messenger was just outside.

"Let him wait for me in the Zhongjun tent, and I'll go over immediately!" Dou Jiande had no choice but to put away his anger and command in a low voice. Reorganizing his clothes in front of the bronze mirror, he told his wife that he didn't have to wait for him to eat together, and then strode towards the Chinese army.

The messenger's surname is Liao, and he is an old brother who has been following Cao Dan since he was in Gaojibo. Dou Jiande still had a little impression of this person, cleared his throat, and asked with a smile: "It's only been half a night?" Cao Zhenyuan is really good! What about the casualties? The people of the city were not frightened? ”

"Heavenly King, the casualties of the brothers are very small, twenty-four were killed in the battle, and about seventy were wounded, and the two together are less than a hundred!" Cao Dan's pro-soldier team Zheng Liao Shen thought about it and reported loudly.

"What about the people? Is there a ** harm to the people? Dou Jiande nodded and continued to ask. I remember that before leaving, I told Zhenyuan. He didn't take my words as a deaf ear? ”

"No, no!" Liao Shen hurriedly added. "Before the city was broken, General Cheng had already caught up. General Cao swore to the city in public according to his proposal, promising not to kill, rob, or plunder, and the defenders dispersed. Then everyone entered the city and sealed the treasury and the yamen of the city office according to the old practice of beating the Qinghe. Several teams were sent to patrol the streets near the center of the city at the same time......"

"Yes, the two of them handled it well. What about the ingots, he died or escaped! Dou Jiande interrupted with a smile, because the depression caused by his sister's departure was swept away.

"Escaped! Before the city was broken, he fled with Wei Zheng and others from the south gate. General Cao personally led people to chase after him, but when his subordinates came out, he hadn't heard any results! Liao Shen lowered his head and responded embarrassedly.

"Run, run? It's just two wastes, and chasing them back has to look at the face of the Wagang Army for them! Dou Jiande waved his hand generously and said with a smile.

Before his wings were full, he didn't want to stiffen his relationship with the Wagang Army. The strength of the other party is several times that of his, and there is no need to start a war for two people who have nothing to do with the overall situation.

Liao Shen didn't understand Dou Jiande's true thoughts, and when he saw his boss being so generous, he felt more ashamed, and hung his head and reported: "Although the king of heaven can rest assured, the surname Yuan can't run far." The road to the south has been blocked by General Wang and Lord Yang Zhai, and General Cheng is leading people to block the large and small ferries leading to the west. Unless the surname Yuan can fly, sooner or later he will have to be captured by the brethren and dedicated to you! ”

"What do I want him for!" Dou Jiande responded with a wry smile. "Tell General Cheng to let them go, you have to spare people and spare people!"

Liao Shen was stunned when he heard this, unable to understand why Dou Jiande gave such an order. Dou Jiande glanced at him and changed his words with a smile: "No need." You've been running back and forth all night, and if you run again during the day, you're going to get sick from exhaustion. I sent someone else to give General Cheng an order. Go down and rest, ask the baggage camp for a jar of wine, and say I promise to reward you!" ”

"Thank you!" The messenger bowed in thanks, and then prepared to leave. Dou Jiande suddenly stopped him again, "Wait, you're from the south, have you heard where Fu Bao is?" Where did the Wagang Army Wang Deren go? Did you fight with Fu Bao? ”

"Heavenly King, my subordinates know the location of General Wang, but there is no news from Wang Deren's department of the Wagang Army!" Liao Shen hurriedly turned around and responded very seriously.

"He didn't rush to Wuyang? Shouldn't it? According to the distance, he and you are the same thing! Dou Jiande frowned, his face full of suspicion.

"It doesn't seem to be. General Wang, General Yang and General Cao of my family had fast horse contact, and until the time of their subordinates' departure, Wang and Yang did not seem to have clashed with the Wagang army! "Liao Shen is a rare fine person, and he told Dou Jiande the news he needed one by one.

"***, Wang Deren actually gave the yuan treasure to shabu!" Dou Jiande slapped his thigh and happily came to a conclusion. "Shall I just say? What good can it do to Wang Deren to guard Wuyang for Li Mi. He wasn't stupid enough to know that if he wanted to continue to mix in Hebei, he wouldn't be able to offend all the old brothers on the road! ”

Liao Shen didn't dare to pick up the stubble, but the smile on his face was very obvious. was so frightened that Wang Deren made a turtle with a shrunken head, and this glory does not only belong to Dou Jiande. All the Dou Jiajun brothers will be proud of this.

"You go down and rest!" Dou Jiande's heart was completely put back into his stomach, and he waved his hand to order. Half of Hebei completely belongs to him from today, and half a year ago, he was still cowering in Douzigang, a lost dog who was forced to panic by the officials and soldiers. How can people not be excited about this earth-shaking change?

Take Hanoi to determine the world. In the past, Han Guangwu took such a path. In a trance, Dou Jiande seemed to feel a golden avenue emerging in front of him. It was a road that Song Zhengben planned for him, Wang Fubao, Cao Dan and others opened up for him, and Cheng Mingzhen, Shi Zhan, Yang Gongqing and others paved a road for him.

"The baggage battalion and the wounded battalion dragged back and moved slowly. The soldiers and horses of the other departments immediately pulled out their camps after breakfast and entered Wuyang County! With a bit of excitement, Dou Jiande quickly made a deployment. Let General Cheng withdraw the battalion from Zhaozhou and go to Guantao County to defend it. After General Wang finished his surveillance of the Wagang army, he took the team to Fanshui and stationed there. Let General Yang and his troops retreat to Wei County. Let Mr. Kong and Mr. Ling slow down the miscellaneous items in Qinghe County and rush to Wuyang together. Two days later, Dou will discuss future major events with everyone in Guixiang County, Wuyang County......"

The guards on the left and right stepped forward in turn to take the arrows, and then trotted out of the tent and took the war horse to pass the military order. Dou Jiande took out most of the arrows in one go, then stopped, sat behind the handsome case and adjusted his breathing.

Calm down, calm down, don't let Mr. Song see what I look like now, laugh at me for getting carried away! He desperately restrained, constantly hinting at himself in the depths of his heart. But the more restrained he is, the more he wants to find someone to share the joy in front of him. Song Zhengben quickly rushed over, but instead of ridiculing Dou Jiande, he had the same excitement on his face. He bowed, then took out a secret report from his sleeve and pressed it hard in front of Dou Jiande's eyes. "Lord, my old friend sent someone to deliver the latest news, Luo Yi ......"

"Luo Yi knocked Boling down?" Listening to Song Zhengben's voice, the tone changed, and Dou Jiande hurriedly unfolded the secret report. "Ah......h Yes! How so? Luo Yi was defeated, how could this be! ”
