Chapter 220: Trying to Catch the Dead
Du Zheng and the others were taken aback, "General Xue, no!" If they are really crazy bandits, then they can do anything without telling any reason! β
Xue Shao took a deep breath and said, "It's dangerous to go here. But if you don't try it, many of us will die of illness and starvation-Du Lvshuai, if someone comes to inquire about my identity later, I will only say that I am Zuo Fengwei Qianniu's back, and Pei Gong's protΓ©gΓ© must not mention it! β
"What does General Xue mean?" Du Zheng and others were puzzled.
"Don't ask, just do it. Tell everyone to keep their mouths tight, otherwise we will all die! If I don't come back in an hour, you continue to lead everyone south! Xue Shao said, "Remember, don't give up on anyone!" Remember, you are the guards of the Tang Dynasty, and you will swear to defend our comrades to the death! β
After that, Xue Shao solemnly hugged Du Zheng and the others, turned around and left.
"General Xueβ" Du Zheng and the others exclaimed loudly.
"I'm going alone, and you're all hiding and not allowing anyone to come with me - it's a military order!"
Xue Shao didn't bring any weapons, and the scarf on his head was also thrown away, and the only one walked into the village with a cavalry horn.
Now, Xue Shao can already judge that these Tang troops are real "deserters" and "bandits". Because they did not set up open posts and secret posts at the entrance of the village to monitor and defend them, they did not have the vigilance and sense of crisis that an army should have. They only cared about eating, drinking, and waiting for death, obviously in a confused state of mind.
How could they become such a rabble if they were not deserters and bandits?
Xue Shao walked into the entrance of the village, picked up the horn and blew the rallying call of the Tang army!
Du Zheng and the others in the woods were taken aback, isn't it clear that they are looking for death?!
As soon as the horn sounded, Tang Jun, who was eating and drinking all over the village, and was dreaming of death, rebounded as if reflexively. At first glance, after scolding a few times, "Where did the beggar and savage come from", more than half of them lay back and didn't bother to pay attention.
A few people grabbed their knives and guns and ran out.
As soon as Xue Shao saw that these people had a reaction, he immediately blew the mourning music with a horn again. I've been in Datang for so long, and I've always seen funerals. It's not a very authentic tune, but it's about that.
"What a fucking bad luck!"
"Where did you come from, you're tired of it!"
"Done him!"
A few chaotic soldiers ran over scolding.
"What kind of person, I don't want to live anymore!!" Someone shouted and cursed.
Xue Shao raised his hands, with the horn hanging on his fingertips, "Look at it, who do I look like?" β
"Bull horns? β¦β¦ Are you a Viet Rider Guard? β
Xue Shao pursed his lips and put down his hands, "Your own people, don't be nervous!" β
"Don't move!" The rebels shouted, and someone wheeled a horizontal knife to Xue Shao's neck, "You kid is tired of life, dare to blow mourning music to us!" β
"Do you still have so many people with knives and guns in your hands to treat me as an unarmed man?" Xue Shao snorted lazily, his fingers grabbed the horizontal knife on his neck and moved his neck, and said nonchalantly, "I don't just blow it for you, but also for myself." Seeing that you can't live, why be in a hurry? β
"What do you mean?" The man really retracted his sword, and the others also retracted. It can be seen that they still have a little bit of "sympathy" for Xue Shao, at least the hostility is not so strong.
"Daizhou has been broken, and the Turkic soldiers will go south at any time; In the Northern Expedition of the Wang Division, Marshal Pei personally led an army of 300,000 troops to the annexed state. Xue Shao even stretched, "This front and back strike, no one will let us go." Early death and late death are deaths, so it's better to blow a mourning for yourself first - what do you say? β
And all the people changed their faces.
"Daizhou has fallen?"
"Marshal Pei is here?"
"This ......"
Xue Shao was already 100% sure that this was the defeated army in the Shuozhou area.
"Hey, there's something to eat!" Xue Shao screamed in surprise and ran towards a fire, on which was a clay urn boiling, in which stewed meat, probably horse meat.
"Stop, who allowed you to eat our meat?" A few guys grabbed Xue Shao and put him back, "It's dirty and smelly like a wild man, get away!" β
"Hey, hey, hey, I won't be able to survive anyway, and let me be a full ghost?" Xue Shao screamed like a thief who had been arrested.
"That's our business!" The rebels tossed him aside and yelled, "We don't know you, get out!" β
"Don't get out!" Xue Shao was reluctant, "I'm just here to die, and I can have a companion on the Huangquan Road after a while!" β
"I'll cut you if I don't roll!"
"Whatever, slash here!" Xue Shao patted his neck, "Anyway, if you don't cut me, I will starve to death or be killed by others, so it's good to go to reincarnation as soon as possible!" β
Xue Shao's "camouflage reconnaissance" in his previous life was really not in vain, and now he is a flamboyant market scoundrel and veteran oilman.
"This scoundrel! Ignore him! β
"Hey, don't ignore me!" Xue Shao leaned up in vain, "Let's stutter!" β
"It fucking stinks!" A few of the rebels shouted, "Shout, throw him into the pond!" β
After saying that, they lifted Xue Shao up, and Xue Shao danced and screamed, and was thrown into the small pond with a thud.
The laughter of the rebels is purely for the mischief and for fun.
"Let's drink!"
The rebels dispersed in twos and threes. It can be seen that they are really confused, not only are they unguarded, but they also have no hope. But seek a moment of food and clothing and drunkenness, and dream of death.
Xue Shao seemed to be very embarrassed to get out of the water, but he secretly sighed in his heart, it is also beneficial to be a scoundrel, at least they have made me treat me as a "kind", so I am not wary!
"Wash, scrub, scrub!" Xue Shao stood in the pond and hummed while scrubbing.
A few rebels sat by the fire in the pond and drank wine and laughed, "This savage boy is quite stupid!" β
"Hey, about the soldiers in the middle?!" Xue Shao shouted.
No one paid any attention to him.
"Are you all poor people from the backwoods, earth leopards? None of them came from the gate? Xue Shao shouted and scolded.
The Tang people's sense of family and county sense is particularly strong, and Xue Shao is tantamount to deliberately provoking.
"Shut your beak!" One guy picked up a lump of mud and smashed it at it.
Xue Shao dodged headlong into the water, and came out with a smile, "So, are you a soldier in the Guannai?" β
"Lao Tzu is a native of Luoyang! What's the matter, you savage boy is not convinced? The man scolded.
Xue Shao beckoned to him, "Come here, you come over a little." I'll tell you a piece of wealth. β
"You savage boy, and rich!" The man sneered, "Die that heart, Lao Tzu himself doesn't have enough to eat, how can I give it to you!" β
"Savages?" Xue Shao plunged his head into the water and rubbed a few handfuls of mud accumulated on his face, and got a haircut, "Have you ever seen such a handsome and dashing savage?" β
The man looked at it fixedly, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "Yo, the stinky boy has fine skin and tender flesh and looks quite handsome - let Lao Tzu see if his ass is not warped!" β
"Get out, I'm not good at this!" Xue Shao scolded, "You just want to give you ten stunning beauties, can you enjoy it?" β
"Bragging!" The man laughed, "Boy, you're hungry!" β
"I told you, let you come forward a little bit. If others hear it, this wealth will not be able to be shared. Xue Shao said very seriously.
The man hesitated for a moment, and took two steps forward lazily, "If there is a fart, let it go." β
"Actually, I am the secret envoy of the prison army secretly sent by the Queen of Heaven to the Shuo Dynasty and the Dingxiang front, and I am responsible for top secret." Xue Shao said, "Now that Shuozhou and Daizhou have fallen one after another, I have to report the top-secret military information found here to the Queen of Heaven as soon as possible." If you can escort me back to Chang'an, I will give you fifty taels of gold and ten more beautiful maids! β
The man laughed twice, picked up a piece of mud and smashed it at Xue Shao.
Xue Shao plunged into the water to escape, and scolded when he came out, "If you don't fuck it, you won't do it, I'll find someone else!" β
"Liar, dare to curse!" The man smashed another cloud of mud and rock.
"Don't believe it!" Xue Shao shouted and scolded while dodging, "Lao Tzu went to Chang'an by himself and received this wealth by himself!" Could it be that you are still a rebel like you, waiting to be beheaded by the Turks or caught by the Tang army? β
"What did you say!!" Xue Shao's words directly stabbed the man's sore spot, and he picked up the mud and smashed it indiscriminately. A few people next to him also came over to pick up mud and stones.
Xue Shao plunged into the water and held back for a long time without coming up.
"Ho, this kid is water-based!" The rebels exclaimed a few times and whispered again, "You say, is what he said true?" β
People always have the desire to survive. Who really wants to become a bandit and wait for death after a full meal?
Xue Shao came out of the water, climbed ashore from the other end of the pond and ran away, scolding as he ran, "Don't give it to wealth, it's not enough to plan!" Lao Tzu is not accompanied, you are here to wait for death! β
"Catch him!"
Xue Shao snickered in his heart, these people had already sentenced themselves to death in their hearts, they would definitely not listen to persuasion and could not lobby, and the tricks of wanting to capture and indulge could be useful!
So he deliberately ran slower, and was caught up by these people and fell to the ground.
"Let go of me, you idiots!" Xue Shao scolded while struggling, "I am the confidant of the Queen of Heaven!" I have a terrible mission! If you miss the important affairs of the imperial court, you three clans will be wiped out! β
"Boy, if you don't make it clear what your mission is, I'll give you here today!" Someone took out a rope knife and pointed it at Xue Shao's throat.
"Don't, don't, have something to say!" Xue Shao looked very greedy for life and afraid of death, his eyes widened and he swallowed saliva, and whispered: "If I say it, you must not spread it!" Otherwise, the world will be in chaos! β
"If you have something to say, let it go, otherwise you will be wiped with a knife!"
"Okay, I'll ......" Xue Shao hesitated for a moment and whispered: "Pei Xingjian, the general manager of the Shan Yudao march of the Northern Expedition, do you know the way?" β
"Nonsense!"
"He has always been at odds with the queen of heaven, do you know the way?"
The sergeants looked at each other and were slightly taken aback, this kind of inside story of the high-level of the court, how could they be such a small pawn who could know the Tao?
Xue Shao sneered, "Just know that you don't know the situation!" β
"You make it clear!"
"Okay, okay, I said, don't do it, take the knife away a little!" Xue Shaocai was arrogant for a second and immediately lowered his profile, and said in a low voice: "In the early years, Pei Xingjian was exiled to the Western Regions for more than ten years, so you should always know the way, right?" The reason is that he is the political enemy of the Queen of Heaven, and he and the eldest grandson Wuji and others oppose the establishment of the Queen of Heaven as the queen. Then now, whenever Pei Xingjian leads troops to go on an expedition, the queen of heaven is very uneasy - so her old man will send people like us to secretly monitor the army! As soon as Pei Xingjian leads the troops to do anything unsubordinate, we will report it immediately! Once you get back, we're rewarded! β
These people's eyes lit up, "Then what did you find this time?" β
"I can't tell you that, I can only tell the queen of heaven!" Xue Shao's face was blank, and he said very seriously, "It's a matter of military affairs, what are you doing when you inquire about it?" β
"I'll stab you without saying anything!!"
