Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Vortex

Several of Cheng Da's personal guards also jumped off the war horse, protecting Qian without leaving his side, you must not be careless here and now, who knows if a cold arrow will be shot from somewhere!

"Wang Chengjun." Qian Buli turned around and shouted.

"The end will be." The squad leader of the cavalry team hurriedly urged the horse to gallop out of the queue.

"You escort them back to the barracks, and if anyone dares to escape, they will be killed on the spot!"

"Yes!" Wang Chengjun turned to the housekeeper: "You all get up, come with me!" ”

The housekeeper still knelt on the ground in a daze, thinking about Qian Buli's words, but the family members around him stood up one after another, Qian Buli's words brought them an illusion, as long as their master arrived, then there was nothing to do with them, why bother to fight against those fierce and vicious cavalrymen here?

Wang Chengjun led seven or eight cavalry to open the way in front, and the housekeepers obediently followed behind the cavalry, and the housekeeper remained on his knees, until one of the horsemen became impatient and pushed his buttocks with a spear, and the housekeeper woke up from a dream, got up from the ground and stumbled to follow the team.

The people of Zhulin Town all focused their eyes on Qian Buli's face, staring at this general who had brought them unexpected surprises, and the eyes of those Tu men were full of gratitude, but they were worried about the lowliness of their status, so they didn't dare to rush forward.

Qian Buli looked around and walked to the old man lying on the ground, the old man thought it was okay, but when he saw Qian Buli coming, he couldn't help hugging the back legs of the buffalo again, and said nervously: "Cow... This is my cow! The old man's movement involved the broken bones on his calf, and he couldn't help screaming.

"Don't be afraid, old man, I know this is your cow, as long as I am here, no one will dare to rob it." Qian Buli bent down as he spoke, took out a few silver coins from his pocket, and put them beside the old man: "Take your cattle back, use this money to see the injury, how can the farmer live without cattle." Qian Buli wanted to see the old man's injury, but he knew that he was okay with the dislocation, and he couldn't do anything about the fracture, and he was worried about causing unnecessary misunderstandings.

The old man looked at the silver coins beside him, the whole person was dumbfounded, for him, there is not much difference between a king and a general, they are the extreme of his imagination, the most glorious thing in his life is that the old man who has spoken two words to the mayor of the town dare not imagine that a general will come over to comfort him, and leave him a sum of money to see the injury.

Qian Buli straightened up and scanned the crowd: "Is there anyone here who will see injuries?" ”

A man with a bamboo basket on his back stood up and said timidly: "Big... My lord, I'll watch. ”

Qian Buli glanced at his bamboo basket and found that it contained all kinds of grass blades and grass roots, which he didn't know anything else, and there was a kind of herb for treating snake venom Qian Buli could see, it seemed that this person was indeed a doctor. Qian Buli nodded: "This old man will be handed over to you." With that, Qian Buli raised his hand and threw the doctor a silver coin.

The doctor took the coin, hesitated, put it in his pocket, and then walked up to the old man, leaned down, tore open the hem of his trousers, and observed the injury.

Qian Buli turned around and strode in front of the Turkish strong men, his eyes swept over their faces one by one: "You have scolded me? ”

"Yes... My lord. The strong man at the head paused and replied, it's really hard for them, if it is replaced by a treacherous person, he will never dare to admit it at this moment.

"Why are you scolding me?" Qian Buli could see at a glance that these men were very simple, and he had the heart to tease.

"We... Several Tu men were ashamed and ashamed, their faces flushed, but they couldn't say a complete sentence.

"What are you scolding me for?" That's a trickier question.

Several Tu men glanced at each other, and the leader finally held back a sentence: "We... Forgot. "They did forget what they were talking about, and they were just angry at the time, and they forgot it when they scolded and turned around.

"Forgot? Forget that you are sinful too! Qian Buli pointed behind them: "You killed that money leopard?" ”

"Yes, sir."

"That's right, you can use that money leopard to atone for your sin." Qian Buli said with a smile.

Several Turkish men panicked at that time, their brains will not turn, if the other party wants to rob openly, they would rather resist desperately than give in, but the money is not separated from the hard robbery, but with them to reason with the facts, compared to eloquence, these Turkish men together are by no means the opponents of money, not to mention that they are still in the front.

"My lord, please... Leave the leopard skin for us, and we don't want anything else. The leader of the Tu Han begged: "My sister is getting married, but she has no dowry yet, and she is expecting me to bring her some good things back." ”

After a short conversation, Qian Buli had roughly judged the nature of these Tu people, and there was no need to continue to make things difficult for people: "How much do you want to sell?" ”

The Turkish man led by him was stunned: "My lord, ten... Ten silver coins. ”

The money is inseparable and touches his body, there are gold coins to play with, who wants to carry silver coins? A few silver coins have been given, and the rest are gold coins, Cheng Da saw this and hurriedly took out ten silver coins from his body and handed them over to the money.

"Here's for you, but you'll have to send me the leopard to the barracks, well... Our military camp is in the county seat of Luling County, can we do it? Qian Buli handed the silver coin to the Turkish man led by him, in fact, it was fake for him to buy the money leopard, and it was real to buy these strong Turkish men, as long as he arrived at the barracks, Qian Buli would let Meng Tietou persuade them to stay.

The strong man of the Tu clan led by him smiled gratefully at the money, and carefully picked up the silver coin: "My lord, don't worry, we will send the leopard to you at noon." ”

"Your Excellency, 。。。。。" A piercing cry suddenly sounded, and the old man who had broken his leg finally woke up from his obsession: "You are really ours... Before he finished speaking, the old man tilted his head and fell unconscious because of excessive excitement.

The traveling doctor hurriedly grabbed the old man's wrist, paused for a moment, turned to Qian Buli and said, "My lord, he has nothing to do, he is just too excited." ”

"That's good." Qian Buli exhaled, walked back to his war horse quickly, turned over and got on the horse, just east of Zhulin Town, there was also a faint sound of shouting and killing, Qian Buli knew that it was Du Bing arresting the Lin family! Of course, the Shui family members on both sides of Zhulin Town didn't want to escape, in order to achieve total annihilation, Qian Buli sent four infantry squads to block on both sides! Sooner or later, Luling County will become a battlefield, so Qian Buli must weaken the strength of the nobles to the greatest extent, and his own side will be weak, if there are still uncertain factors lurking in the rear flank, this battle will be even more difficult.

The people of Zhulin Town saw that Qian Buli was leaving, and they all surrounded him, not because they wanted to hurt Qian Buli like the Fang family, but because they were reluctant. In their humble experience like insects and ants, how could they ever see such a big official as Qian Buli who was the master for them? Qian Buli just comforted not only an injured old man, but also hundreds of suffering hearts.

However, Qian Buli didn't want to stay here anymore, although the eyes of the people were so grateful and hot, but this kind of gaze made Qian Buli even more uncomfortable. His family knows his own affairs, but in fact, the driving force behind the scenes is his money!

Qian Buli glanced at the crowd, no matter how deep the guilt in his heart, this plan must be carried out, and how many mortals can realize that under the shadow of war, there are endless conspiracies, and it is difficult to win without conspiracy! But.... The class tilting in this world is too cruel, let me pay you back after the war!

This is the only thing I can do for you ... Qian Buli secretly made a promise in his heart, turned his horse, and galloped away into the distance, Cheng Da and other guards followed closely behind Qian Buli, leaving only those reluctant and silent people looking into the distance.

※ ※ ※

When it was almost noon, Qian Buli returned to his military camp, a huge camp, almost all of which were emptied by Qian Buli, and only more than 30 infantry patrolled back and forth in the camp. There are a total of eleven nobles who want to take advantage of the fire to rob, although the Fang family, the Lin family and the Shui family are the majority of them, and Qian Buli judged that they were targeting Zhulin Town according to their geographical location and the direction of their contact with each other, but the rest of the nobles could not be unguarded.

Fortunately, Qian is not far from the weak points of human nature, and Luling County is quite poor, there are only a few trade points and large settlements, as long as Zhulin Town is protected, and other places let various cavalry squads run back and forth to complete the plan.

Not long after Qian Buli returned to the barracks, the teams escorting the prisoners also returned to the barracks one after another, and Qian Buli specially made a place for the captives at the back of the Chinese army camp, and these people were of great use.

Walking to his handsome tent, Qian Buli was surprised to see He Zicheng and four soldiers waiting for him, those four soldiers were sent by Qian Buli, nominally to ensure the safety of He Zicheng, but the actual meaning is known to everyone.

"Looking for me? Figured it out? Qian Buli lazily lifted the curtain and walked into the handsome tent.

He Zicheng followed Qian Buli and walked into the handsome tent, he stared at Qian Buli for a while, and then sneered: "Lord Commander is really a ruthless poisonous plan!" ”

"Oh?" Qian Buli was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand, and motioned for Cheng Da and the others to retreat outside the tent: "What do you mean by this?" ”

"Do you still need me to say it?" He Zicheng felt that it was just a sneer that could not express his feelings, so he simply laughed out loud.

"I can't think of anything that deserves to be so happy with you, you're an afterthought at best, and if you can sense what I'm trying to do beforehand, then you deserve my respect." Speaking of which, Qian didn't want to hide it, he shook his body and found the most comfortable position: "Besides... You may not be able to see through my plans now! ”

"That's the villain who is complacent about his treachery!" He Zicheng unceremoniously pushed back: "Please pay attention to your own identity, you are a soldier, and you are the commander of the Tianwei Army!" ”

"So... What kind of soldier is a good soldier in your mind? Qian Buli smiled: "Is it a good soldier who is simple-minded and only knows how to charge, but when he turns around and is played by you politicians?" ”

"Don't quibble, your poisonous plan makes the devil ashamed of himself!" He Zicheng showed a look of contempt in his eyes: "As far as I know, the most important quality of a soldier is integrity, may I ask Lord Commander, are you an upright person?" ”

"I think I've heard that." Qian Buli frowned and thought for a while: "I remember, the most important quality of a soldier is integrity, and the most important quality of a politician is honesty. Is that so? ”

He Zicheng's face immediately turned red, from the beginning of the father and son helping Ji Shenglie to calculate, secretly detaining the convoy to Xueyuan City, and then detaining the soldiers sent by Wang Rui, secretly supporting Zamu Hezhong, trying to persuade Du Bing to surrender, these are incompatible with honesty.

"Our future earl, your face is a little abnormal!" Qian Buli couldn't help but look at He Zicheng with a smile: "What does your criticism remind me of... A crow is laughing at another crow whose feathers are darker than it? O man... It's all like this, I always like to find fault with others, but I can't see myself clearly. ”

With the cynicism of Qian Buli, He Zicheng had nothing to say, after all, he did do those things.

"Let me make a precise decision." Qian Buli put away his smile: "In fact, for politicians, the most important thing is hypocrisy, just like you." ”

"Joke!" He Zicheng finally caught something: "Then the most important thing for a soldier is to be ruthless?!" Ruthless like you? ”

"No, you're wrong." Qian Buli did not get angry: "I understand politicians, but you don't understand military personnel, the most important thing for me is victory, victory after victory." ”

"Do you think you're really going to win all the time? Sky.... You're fighting against Imperial Admiral Chi Fengyun! He Zicheng said sarcastically: "An egg or a stone, everyone knows which of them is harder!" ”

"You make the mistake of belittling your opponent by saying that!" Qian Buli replied seriously: "Although Wei Chi Fengyun is old and incompetent, he will not do much, but he can't be described as an egg, as an imperial general, there will always be something respectable about him!" ”

"You... You.... He Zicheng was so angry that he opened his mouth for a while, he had never seen such a self-righteous person as Qian Buli, one was a small commander, the other was an imperial general, who was an egg and who was a stone, do you still need to say it clearly?!

"Actually, there is no need for a dispute between us." Qian Buli sighed: "Time can solve all disputes, you don't need to wait long, I guarantee you can get a satisfactory answer." ”

He Zicheng snorted and did not speak.

"Have you thought about my work? Don't forget that the more interest you owe, the more you owe. "Money is inseparable from a different topic.

He Zicheng pondered for a moment and smiled bitterly: "Lord Commander, if you say a faux pas, I can even foresee your end, I really don't have the mood to work for you." ”

"What's the end, is it a failure?" Qian Buli smiled playfully: "A month ago, Zamuhe had the same foresight as you. ”

This sentence was answered to the point, He Zicheng was silent, Qian Buli's record was clearly there, if you want to refute it, you have to come up with some arguments, you can't talk out of thin air with white teeth!

"Since you haven't thought about it, you can go back and think about it." Qian Buli waved his hand to signal He Zicheng to leave: "But my time is running out, I hope you can give me an answer in the near future." ”

"Yes, sir." He Zicheng retreated helplessly, he felt as if something was wrong, but he couldn't think of anything wrong for a while.

"This stupid boy." Qian Buli burst out laughing, and then set his eyes on the Luling Plain in the sand table, the harassment war can only consume a small part of the enemy's vital force, and the one that can kill and injure the opponent in large numbers is still the blocking war launched in the Luling Plain, how to kill and injure the opponent more and reduce the casualties of his own side, this problem is the top priority.

Who knew that only a short time later, the door curtain was lifted again, and He Zicheng walked in with an iron face.

"Yes, that makes sense? I thought you'd come to me at night. Qian said without leaving his head or raising his head.

"You... Qian Buli's words confirmed the judgment in He Zicheng's heart, and he rushed forward excitedly and shouted: "Lord Commander, I admit that your eloquence far surpasses mine, but you have no right to play with me, this is an insult to me!" ”

"I insulted you? Your words are too sensational. Qian Buli glanced at He Zicheng lazily: "I'm just having a fair argument about the different points of view between us." ”
