Chapter 215: What Am I Doing?
It is a flat place, backed by mountains on both sides, and there is a river bridge in front of it. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The soldiers and horses led by Yang Shuo were in front of this bridge, and they all looked like capable soldiers, riding in formation, although they were a little chaotic, but they all remained stationary, and occasionally the horses snorted.
This kind of formation calmed Wei Ou and the others at the time, and looked at the tall figure riding one by one, inexplicably relieved.
Especially Sun Min and others, comparing the soldiers and horses in front of them with the horse thieves in their memory, they added a little confidence.
After Wei Ou saluted, he raised his eyes to look at Yang Shuo, and then looked at the soldiers and horses behind the general, becoming more and more relieved.
"You're Wei Ou? Is it a celebrity in Shu? Looking at Wei Ou with a flattering smile on his face in front of him, Yang Shuo nodded slightly, "It seems that you have some ability, but you were almost slaughtered by a horse thief?" ”
Wei Ou could still smile when he heard the words in front of him, but when he heard the back, his face changed, and he opened his mouth to say something, but before he could speak, he saw Yang Shuo waving his hand and said, "Okay, there is no need to say more, I saw that the people and horses you brought were too messy and useless." ”
Wei Ou said: "General Yang, the bandits are rampant, ferocious and ruthless, and they must be surrounded by several times the number of troops......
"The soldiers are not expensive, needless to say that there are so many of them, you bring so many people, and those horses can still be used, go over and make it clear to them, let the leader lead the soldiers and horses out, form a team, under my command, they don't have much to do, otherwise bring it back."
"As long as the horse rider comes, this ......" Wei Ou was even more worried when he heard this, he thought that he would have to deal with that gang of horse thieves, this man and horse are more and better, it is better to wait for everyone to gather and go to the pull, so that nothing can go wrong - at this time, the county town and checkpoint soldiers who were notified were brave, and some of them were still on the way, and they didn't have time to come.
In Wei Ou's opinion, there were not many people who actually arrived, and even fewer were horsebacks, most of them were people sent by the family.
"You think there are fewer people?" Yang Shuo glanced at Wei Ou and laughed, "According to what you said, there are only more than 100 horse thieves, even if he has 200 people, these two hundred people have no baggage and supplies, and the short-term raid is okay, and if they fall into a tug-of-war a little, they can only retreat, not to mention the horse thieves and the like, everyone shouts and fights, and they don't dare to stay in one place for a long time, such a team, you let Ben General bring hundreds of them over, the news spreads, I don't have the face to see my colleagues." ”
Wei Ou became worried and said, "General, it seems that there are not many soldiers and horses you brought, and there are not many ......."
The soldiers and horses behind Yang Shuo looked solemn and majestic, suppressing most of the people present, but the total number was not much, it seemed that there were less than 100 horses, Wei Ou thought that there would be a follow-up, but listening to this meaning, eighty percent was not supplemented.
Yang Shuo showed a little impatience and said, "Not much? I think enough is enough, you don't have to worry about these things, just pass on my words. ”
Wei Ou didn't dare to say anything for a while, turned around and went to deliver the message.
Looking at his back in a hurry, Yang Shuo couldn't help but sneer, and said to a confidant: "Look at these scholars, when they don't need us, their eyes can grow to the top of their heads, and seven out of ten sentences are cynical, but once we are used, it will be different, you look at this diligent and energetic, and those who don't know think it's my staff." ”
The soldiers next to him smiled knowingly, and then said softly: "It's better for the general to say less, there are a lot of people here, don't let people listen." ”
"I know, don't worry." Yang Shuo nodded, just in time to see someone walking towards him.
"General Yang......" The man smiled and bowed his hand, it was Sun Min.
Yang Shuo thought back slightly, and suddenly thought: "This is Sun Gongzi, I remember that I met you and I once in Jianye before." ”
Sun Min laughed and nodded: "Yes, but I was far away from the general that time, and there were still elders and officials, but I didn't talk to the general. ”
Yang Shuo was about to sneer, but he was slightly stunned when he heard the word resignation, and nodded: "Sun Gongzi was also disturbed by horse thieves this time, don't worry, since Ben is in the future, he will definitely not be able to spare them." ”
Sun Min smiled and said a few words of gossip, but Yang Shuo felt comfortable listening to it, and then asked about Wang Mi's war, and Yang Shuo picked up what he knew and could say.
On the other side, Wei Ou hurriedly came to the side of the family and passed on Yang Shuo's suggestion, and suddenly, the leaders of these families and wealthy families were a little embarrassed.
"It's not that I can't trust Mr. Wei and General Yang, I really don't dare to take it lightly, in case there is a mistake, I will lose the family that I have trained so hard."
"Mr. Wei, I hope you can understand, it's not that we are unwilling to cooperate, but if we hand over this command, wouldn't it be impossible to stop General Yang if he sent me and others to do that dangerous thing?"
"Mr. Wei, you go and make it clear to General Yang that as long as you can ensure that the soldiers and horses waiting for us do not carry out dangerous errands, then you can hand over the command."
The people of their family originally thought that there would be a lot of people anyway, and they would bring people over to sell favors, but now they listen to this meaning, and they don't really have many people to gather, and they have to let their family members be commanded, in case they can't be saved, this loss will be great.
But when Wei Ou heard it, he was also annoyed, he heard from Yang Shuo's words, he heard the taste that could not be changed, and it was not difficult to guess that this lieutenant general wanted to use this move to show his majesty and ensure that he was not restrained, if according to the words of these family leaders, people give it to you, and you have to promise not to act as a dangerous thing, then where is Yang Shuo's authority? Wei Ou was sure that if the lieutenant didn't turn his face on the spot, he would be given face.
Therefore, he will not do this thing, and can only coerce and lure a few leaders here.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you have brought your soldiers and horses here, if you take them away now, not only will you offend me, but even General Yang will remember it, we will go north to Qingzhou, and we will leave, but General Yang is stationed here, so you are not afraid that he will be investigated afterwards? Even if you don't pursue it, just keep it in your heart, it's not a good thing, right? ”
As soon as these words came out, several leaders really changed color, Wei Ou struck while the iron was hot, and began to draw blueprints for them and talk about the future, and finally made sense, and then hurriedly came to Yang Shuo's side with the results, but saw that the foreign army general was talking and laughing with Sun Min.
Wei Ou was stunned for a moment, his eyes were complicated, but he still stepped forward and said the result.
"You're okay, then let's go, it's late, I don't have enough dry food for the march, I can't wait, you let those people follow, if you fall behind, don't blame me!"
"Huh? In such a hurry? Wei Ou was stunned for a moment, but still nodded, "I'll go and give the order." ”
When the words fell, I heard Yang Shuo say to Sun Min with a pleasant face: "Sun Gongzi, you can take the prepared horse that we are waiting for, the war horse we are waiting for has excellent endurance, and it has also undergone training, which can ensure that you are not in danger." ”
Sun Min said with a smile: "Thank you for the general's kindness, then I might as well be respectful." ”
Cavalry marches, sometimes one person and two horses, this is the preparation of horses.
Wei Ou felt very uncomfortable in his heart, although he knew that in terms of fame, he was not as good as Sun Min, but he ran before and after here, like a herald, but Sun Min talked and laughed with Yang Shuo, and the gap was inevitably a little big.
"This Yang Shuo, a martial artist, relied on me to ask for him, he was arrogant, it was really unacceptable, but I had to endure it, endure it for a while, and exterminate the horse thief, no one can erase my advocacy work, and then use the matter of Xingtan to become famous, and the fame will be suppressed, and even Sun Min will not be as famous as me at that time."
Silently thinking that if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, Wei Ou restrained his thoughts and once again conveyed Yang Shuo's meaning.
In this way, in the midst of all kinds of compromises and intrigues, this improvised patchwork team finally started.
The main body of the team was still nearly 100 cavalry brought by Yang Shuo, followed by the cavalry of each family, which together also had more than 60 cavalry, known as a "cavalry" of 200 people, crossed Surabaya and went all the way north.
Compared with Yang Shuo's team, the mounts of the family members are different in height, coat color, fat and thin, and their running speed is also different, but fortunately, the whole team is not fast, but no one will be left behind.
Traveling all the way on the official road, whenever anyone saw it along the way, they were eager to give way, Yang Shuojun quickly bypassed a jungle, and at the edge of the forest, there was a tall man, holding a spear and carrying a dead wolf, looking at this horse team, smacking his mouth.
"The front ones are the officers and soldiers, they look really majestic, they can lead the army to fight, gallop across the field, how cheerful, wait until they go back this time, see if they can operate it, and then enter a military camp."
As he spoke, he carried the wolf and spear on his shoulder, and walked south.
On the other side, Yang Shuo and his party traveled all the way, but instead of burying their heads in the north, they would also send people to inquire about the situation in the villages and towns along the way to estimate the movements of the horse thieves.
It's just that this feedback made Yang Shuo puzzled for a while.
"This way north, from the mouths of many people, you can know that there is indeed a large number of horse teams passing by, and it is obviously not an official army, but it is actually not guilty of the villages and towns along the way, it is simply not the style of horse thieves, unless they have another goal!"
After analyzing this, he called Wei Ou over and asked bluntly: "Do you have anything you haven't said, how much do you know about this gang of horse thieves?" ”
Wei Ou thought for a while, and then said, "I don't know, General Yang, have you ever heard of Chen Zhi?" ”
Yang Shuo was stunned when he listened.
Wei Ou didn't wait for him to reply, he said to himself: "The general lives at the junction of Qingxu and Xu, maybe he is not familiar with this person, this one has recently ordered the best grade, but it is a figure from Pengcheng, sooner or later there will be rumors over, I will meet the horse thief, the leader of the horse thief has mentioned this person, so I suspect that Chen Zhi must have something to do with the horse thief, the horse thief went north, it should be to pet him, I wait, the people along the way, are all affected by the pond fish!" At the end of the day......"
Speaking of the back, he showed a hint of compassion, and was about to sigh, but saw Yang Shuo pat his thigh.
"You fucking said it earlier! If I knew it had something to do with Mr. Chen, what would I do! ”
