Zhang Pigskin's original intention was not to set fire to the grain, but to worry that he would not be able to make an account to the big boss after he returned. Hearing Wang Ermao say this, he felt very reasonable in his heart, nodded, and echoed in a low voice: "That's right, how many of our Juluze brothers are not from farming?" Anyone who dares to feed the leftover meals to the livestock will be looked down upon by everyone. If such tens of thousands of stones of grain are burned by the two of us, the two of us will want to be human beings for the rest of our lives! ”

"But what about the orders of the nine masters?" Yuan Shouxu was cautious and reminded in a low voice.

"The Nine Masters and the Wang Hall Master are not as good as the two brothers!" Several other pro-soldiers smiled and answered for Wang Ermao. They are all from a bitter background, and they don't blink when they kill. But if Wang Ermao really asked them to set fire to Liyangcang, it is estimated that no one would be able to do it. So it's better to just forget it, anyway, more than 7,000 large animals are loaded with polished rice. With so many gains to bring back to the old camp, even Zhang Da is not in charge of accusing everyone of disobedience.

Wang Ermao smiled, acquiescing to everyone's point of view. In fact, he actually has no idea whether Cheng Mingzhen will punish himself with military law. The little ninth brother who has experienced the newlywed change is no longer the original little ninth brother, he has become more rational, deeper and more sensitive. Like a sword unsheathed, terrifyingly sharp and frighteningly cold. Even Wang Ermao couldn't predict where this treasure knife would go.

While talking and laughing, there was a sudden commotion near the Liyang City Gate behind him. Dozens of men, each carrying a stick of fire and water in their hands, shouted and chased after the horse team.

"Shout, there are really people who are in a hurry to contribute to the court!" Zhang Pigskin's nose twisted, and his hand quickly pressed to the handle of the knife on his waist. The reason why Zhang Wenqi was released was because everyone thought that this person was a nerd and would not cause any harm to the brothers at all. This is done out of contempt, not weakness. If the nerd Taishou doesn't know what to do, everyone doesn't mind killing him again, so that the county guard yamen will be completely stained with human blood.

After all, they are the elite who have undergone strict training, and without waiting for the orders of the two hall masters Zhang and Wang, the minions in charge of the palace have quickly formed a battle formation. As long as the pursuit continues to get closer, the minions will let them taste the power of cavalry charge.

Seeing this, the man who rushed out of the city immediately stopped. While raising the water and fire stick in his hand high, he shouted breathlessly, "Wang, General Wang, the little ones come to join the gang, please accept General Wang!" ”

"Occupancy?" Wang Ermao's brows furrowed, and he couldn't believe his ears. Juluze's brothers probably came from two sources, the first was the homeless people who were forced by the government to take the initiative to vote, and the second was the people who were brought in during the raids. Liyang City has just released a return of food, and it is impossible for the people to be unable to live so quickly. Under the influence of Cheng Mingzhen, Wang Ermao himself looked down on untrained farmers, so he would never bring the people to strengthen his momentum.

The men did not get a definite response, and shouted unwillingly, "Wang, General Wang, you, you don't know us anymore." We, we'll patrol the streets for you. Brother Zhu, Brother Zhu has been our leader! ”

At this time, Wang Ermao finally remembered. This group of idlers was the one who once risked his life to intercede for the nerd county guard, and was later temporarily brought in by himself to maintain local security. Admiring the other party's personality and courage, he arched his hand with a smile and said loudly: "I'm a bandit, you wait to come and join the gang, aren't you afraid that the government will find out and raid your home?" ”

"Hey! They are all those who are full of food and the whole family is not hungry, where is there a home to copy! ”

"General Wang is bringing all the heroes of the green forest, and we are willing to join the gang and kill the rich and help the poor together!"

"You give us food, we can't repay it, so we will sell you this life!"

The men responded in a chaotic manner while wiping the hot sweat that ran out.

It was rare to be praised from the bottom of his heart, Zhang Zhupi, Zhu Laogen'er, Liu Laosan and others all blushed, raised their heads and looked at Wang Ermao, expecting him to agree.

Unwilling to brush everyone's intentions, Wang Ermao groaned slightly, and asked with a straight face: "Can you ride a horse?" ”

"It's not good to ride, ride blind!" Among the idlers, a burly man in his thirties took the lead in answering. "We are all in a hurry, unloading trucks, no one has sold goods in the past two years, and we have also lost our livelihood. If General Wang doesn't dislike us, I'm willing to follow you as a porter. It's okay to transport grain and water, it's okay to lead a horse to fall, it's always a business that can eat! ”

It turned out that they came to me to beg for a living! Wang Ermao smiled secretly in his heart. After thinking about it, he continued to ask, "Then which of you is familiar with the terrain near Liyang, and I am talking about the fact that in addition to the official roads, the main roads and small roads are clear?" ”

When all the men heard this, they all had confident smiles on their faces. "Look at what you said, since we are in a hurry to make a living, can we not be familiar with the roads around here? Say where you want to go, we'll lead the way, and we're guaranteed to save you half of your effort! ”

"Then at the end of the team, each person will pick a horse and be my guide for a few days!" Wang Er Maoli waved his hand and ordered loudly.

"Great!" The idlers were overjoyed, agreed, and went straight to the hundreds of good horses without cattle. Zhang Zhupi was afraid that some spies would take advantage of the situation, so he frowned, and reminded Wang Ermao's ear, "They are so loyal to Zhang Wenqi, will they..."

"If the nerd Taishou knows how to use spies, will we knock down the county town?" Wang Ermao shook his head aggressively and responded nonchalantly. "These guys know gratitude, and they are all rare good materials. Believe it or not, wait and see, within three months, they will all make you red! ”

Seeing him so confident, Zhang Pigskin couldn't say anything more. After a while, the idlers chose their horses and rushed to Wang Ermao's side to listen to the order. Wang Ermao glanced at the team of pro-soldiers behind him, and nodded out to Zhu Laogen'er, "Come on, Lao Gen'er, they're all handed over to you." You're the best friend of them anyway. Don't be the captain of the gang, and go straight to the head of the team. ”

Without waiting for Zhu Laogen to recover from the sudden good luck, he quickly turned his head to the burly idler who had the most organized answer just now, "What's your name, do you have a tuba?" reported it and reported the names of these brothers to Zhu Teamzheng. You give him the deputy of the team, tell the team about everything first, and let him make the decision for you! ”

"General Yu, my name is Xiongkuohai!" Fang Cai claimed that he was not very good at riding a horse, but the middle-aged man who rode blindly responded loudly.

This person is burly, with a good face, and he has an atmosphere between his gestures. Wang Ermao, who likes people who look like this, smiled and said with a pleasant face, "I will hand over these brothers to Zhu Laogen'er and you." You take good care of them. Be my own soldiers first, and when you get acquainted with the guys, I'll assign you to serve. ”

"General Xie Wang!" Xiong Kuohai clasped his fists on the horse's back, his hands loosened the reins, but his legs stepped on the stirrups as if they had taken root.

This posture looks like a veteran horseback rider, where is just blind riding. Wang Ermao's heart was overjoyed, and he simply let Xiong Kuohai follow him first, walking all the way, chatting slowly all the way. After chatting for more than an hour, he looked around, and suddenly lowered his voice and asked, "Old Xiong, look at where is this around, how far is it from Liyang City?" ”

Xiong Kuohai just glanced up on horseback, and immediately concluded, "Looking at the terrain, it should be about forty miles away from Liyang City." Our cattle are all loaded with grain on their backs, so let's see if you should let them stop and rest first, General. That thing looks powerful, but it's actually more delicate than a person. If you keep going like this, it won't take you three days to get out of the pot! ”

Wang Ermao nodded lightly, "Then stop!" Shouxu, go and give an order, let the brothers give the animals some good food, and by the way, turn some snow water and feed it! ”

Yuan Shouxu agreed, turned around and went to convey the order. Wang Ermao jumped off his mount and paced slowly while looking around at the white snowfield. Xiong Kuohai was valued when he first arrived, and he was grateful, and followed him inch by inch with a stick of water and fire, lest an assassin would emerge in the snow if he was not careful.

"Follow me, you can rest too!" Wang Ermao didn't reply, and commanded in a low voice.

"Yes, General!" The majestic sea promised happily, but his feet did not stop. Follow the same pace, and refuse to lag behind half a step.

Wang Ermao had never enjoyed this kind of treatment, and he was a little uncomfortable for a while. Stopped, smiled and admonished: "I'm just a hall master of Juluze, and my position in the army is only a captain, not a general, let alone a king. Don't scream in the future, lest you be laughed at. Don't follow me, and see your brethren go. For the first time, they may not be able to stand this kind of hardship! ”

"It's all hungry, it's used to being full, and you can sleep with a doorway, how do you know what hard work is!" Xiong Kuohai grinned, unwilling to leave Wang Ermao's side.

Zhang Pigskin also saw that this person was a real man, stepped forward with a smile, and explained in a low voice, "Wang Duwei is used to wandering alone. As he walked, he calculated others in his heart. You don't have to follow him, lest you disturb his train of thought! ”

Xiong Kuohai realized that he was in the way of his boss, smirked and scratched the back of his head, and walked away. When his back went a little farther, Zhang Pigskin approached Wang Ermao a little closer, and discussed with the other party in a low voice, "Brother Wang, it seems that you are thinking about the master again." Who do you want to clean up, let's pick up the grass and beat the rabbits, and don't delay! ”

Hearing this, Wang Ermao nodded lightly, "Brother Zhang still knows me, and he will go to my heart in one sentence." I remember that in the spring, as soon as Dou Jiande and the others entered Wuyang County, they were attacked by Wei Zheng near Bowang. Seeing that we are about to enter Wuyang County, I'm afraid the road won't stop. ”

Zhang Pigskin immediately frowned, his face full of worry. "You're not wrong at all. We have only a thousand people, but we have so many livestock and food, no matter who sees it, they will be greedy. However, Wei Zheng and Wei Deshen were near Tangyin with the county soldiers, and they might not have the strength to catch up for a while! ”

"If we want to go back to our hometown, we must go through Fanshui and Wei County!" Wang Ermao picked up a dead branch and drew a few casually in the snow, probably with the meaning of a map. Wei Zheng is closer to Wei County than us, and if he turns around to chase after him, it will be easy to block in front of us. Even if he doesn't come to chase it personally, it is difficult to say whether other people in Wuyang County will come over to pick up the cheap when they hear that there are few of us! ”

"So, what about that?" Before Cheng Mingzhen did not enter Ze, Zhang Jiajun's war was always improvised, and he rarely made careful plans. Zhang Pigskin is also used to living a life of not worrying, and he can't change his past habits for a while.

Wang Ermao thought for a while and said solemnly: "I suggest that the two of us divide the troops. You take all your horses and mules and your baggage, and follow behind. I will take five hundred brethren and make a way for you. Whoever gets in our way, I'll give you a bloody way! ”

"You, you mean, first, first?" Although Zhang Pigskin doesn't know how to arrange troops, his reflexes are first-class. Hearing what Wang Ermao said, he immediately guessed that he wanted to take the initiative to find trouble with Wei Zheng. His eyes widened in shock, and his face was full of disbelief.

After a while, seeing that Wang Ermao didn't answer, he took a sip of cold snow foam and reminded with a white mist, "According to the scout's report, Wei Zheng and them brought five or six thousand men and horses. And you will take with you five hundred brethren, shall you go? ”

"As far as you know, I brought 500 brothers, how can anyone guess?" Wang Ermao asked with a smile, and then explained in a low voice, "There are many of them, but they have walked on snowy roads for several days, and they are sleepy and tired. In addition, they may not have thought that we would take the initiative to give up Liyang, and it is estimated that they are currently thinking about how to attack the city with the soldiers and horses of the imperial court. Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, I asked Xiong Kuohai to help find a shortcut and insert it into Wei Zheng's back. Then use the cavalry to give him a blow, and make sure to beat him up! ”

"Then bring more livestock. It is better to unload some grain and throw it on the road than to lose your life! Zhang Zhupi was not small, and when he heard Wang Ermao say decisively, he immediately helped to give him ideas.

Wang Ermao nodded, "Unload a thousand more horses." Spread the grain on the backs of the other animals. As long as I cripple Wei Zheng and Wei Deshen, the rest of Wuyang County will definitely not dare to provoke us again. That way, you and your brother will be able to walk slowly and without fear! ”

"Well, be careful. Wei Zheng is a famous stubble! Zhang Pigskin also nodded lightly and solemnly admonished. He understood that the reason why Wang Ermao did this was all for Juluze's consideration. At present, the population of Zedi is increasing, and whether this batch of food can be safely transported back is crucial to the future and survival of Zedi.

Jianghu man, no need for a mother-in-law. Wang Ermao smiled and nodded, which was regarded as a thank you. Then he exhaled and strode over to the resting brothers. Wei Zheng, this legendary hard stubble had to be touched. Is this man really as unfathomable as the rumors say? He wasn't convinced, and he was desperate to try.

A white mist condensed behind him, lasting for a long time, lasting for a long time.
