"So that Lord Lei knows, because he knows that the Lord is coming, so he specially asked someone to cover these heads with lime for the adults to test."

When Lei Xianchu was stunned, Zhou Shixiang had already turned over and dismounted, walked to the carriage and grabbed a braid with his hand, and lifted a human head that had shrunk and shrunk, extremely hideous, "These heads are the heads of the green battalion soldiers of the Qing army, and this one is the head of Kong Guoliang, my lord, please take a look carefully, the one hundred and eighty-six heads contained in the two cars, none of them have killed good people, if you don't believe it, you can check them one by one." After speaking, he gently put down Kong Guoliang's head, his face was very flat from beginning to end, and he couldn't see that he had the intention of giving Lei Xianchu a horse or intimidation, but it seemed that he was asking for merit.

Lei Xianchu snorted secretly, it's not that he hasn't fought, it's not that he hasn't passed through the corpse mountain and sea of blood, how can these heads in front of him scare him!

However, the other party did not specify that this move was malicious, but it was a gesture of asking for merit, and he was inconvenient to attack, so he pretended not to know, withdrew his gaze, and said casually: "I know Kong Guoliang, a nobody, but his brother Kong Guozhi is a hero, and he fought with him when he went north with the old Huangge, and he was quite able to fight." ”

The words inadvertently degraded Kong Guoliang to worthless, a nobody is worth showing off, and at the same time he lifted Kong Guozhi, but he also raised himself, the implication is naturally that you see that I went to war with the old man of the Shoufu Pavilion back then, what kind of thing are you a bandit leader? No matter what you mean, it's child's play in front of this official.

Pang Tianci knew that Lei Xianchu was right, although he had only been in Gaozhou for more than a year, he still generally understood the civil and military officials in the state, and knew that Lei Xianchu had gone north to Jiangxi with Huang Daozhou to attack the Qing army in the early years of the Longwu Dynasty, and these green battalion soldiers in Luo Ding were from Jiangxi, so Lei Xianchu's words were mostly true - he did fight with Kong Guozhi back then, but he was defeated.

Zhou Shixiang smiled at Lei Xianchu's words and said nothing, but Ge Zheng and them were not at odds, and the Tartar Qian, who had worked so hard for a long time, was not a fart in your eyes! If this is really a fart, why didn't you come to beat Luo Ding, but let that little white face coax us down the mountain? Now it's okay, Lao Tzu has worked hard to defeat Luoding City, and you will send it away with a casual word?

However, Zhou Shixiang did not turn his face, although Ge Zheng and they had an opinion, they could only pout their lips and have nothing to say, after all, they have been headed by Zhou Shixiang, and Zhou Shixiang's authority among the brothers has also been formed.

"Since it is the first level, it is to verify the merits, Lord Lei will wait a while, and the lower officials will take a look."

Pang Tianci endured the smell and stomach discomfort, and also went about business, walked around the two carriages, and then returned to Lei Xianchu's side, and affirmed: "It is indeed a shaved tartar, and the braid looks like it has been knotted for several years, not a newly shaved hair." ”

Lei Xianchu nodded slightly after hearing this, waved his hand and instructed the people behind: "Check the number of heads, and after confirming that it is correct, make a register and report it to the Gaozhou Fuya." ”

"Yes, sir!"

At that moment, two Gaozhou officers with a few Gaozhou soldiers reluctantly stepped forward to check the count, Zhou Shixiang let them count and did not interfere, while Lei Xianchu stood there with a straight face. Pang Tianci saw that the atmosphere was not right, and he had the intention to play a round, but he didn't know how to speak. For a while, it was quite embarrassing.

After a while, the first number was checked, and it was one hundred and eighty-six as Zhou Shixiang said.

"Since the number is compatible, this official will send people to Gaozhou to ask for credit for you. I am now in the reign of the Holy Son of Heaven, and the top and bottom are unanimously restored, and the military merits are more important than before, and one hundred and eighty-six beheadings are not small, and the official will not hide your credit, and report it truthfully, the governor is also the most fair, you can rest assured, the court will never lose your credit. ”

Lei Xianchu said a set of words in a cold voice, and Zhou Shixiang bowed slightly after hearing this, which can be regarded as thanking the guerrilla master. His attitude of almost being on an equal footing with Lei Xianchu made Lei Xianchu even more unhappy in his heart, although he was not afraid of this young chick, he always felt unsteady in his heart, and he was also a little uneasy about Luo Dingcheng in front of him.

When he was hesitating whether to enter the city, Zhou Shixiang had already turned to the side and asked, "It's here, please also invite Lord Lei and all of you to enter the city together!" ”

At the same time, Ge Zheng and the others shouted together in a sullen voice: "Please! ”

Lei Xianchu was stunned for a moment, and saw that the "bandits" were all looking at him, and it was inconvenient to show weakness, so he took a breath, glanced at them, and then gritted his teeth and shouted at his subordinates: "Enter the city!" ”

"Into town!"

Several Gaozhou officers hurriedly raised their voices to convey the order to the soldiers, and as soon as they heard that they could enter the city, the Gaozhou soldiers immediately got up and walked forward with their heads held high.

As soon as I arrived at the city, I saw a middle-aged man in a gray robe leading a group of old men and small officials to stand respectfully by the door, and an incense case was set up in front of the door, and an umbrella was erected.

After the middle-aged man led by saw Lei Xianchu and the others coming, he took a few steps forward to greet him, and then raised his voice and said: "Luo Ding Zhizhou Song Xianggong greets the guerrilla lord!" ”

Luo Ding Zhizhou?

Lei Xianchu hadn't come back to his senses yet, and Pang Tianci was already stunned: when did the imperial court appoint Luo Ding Zhizhou.

Before they could react, someone over there waved and shouted, "Bang the gong and beat the drum!" ”

In an instant, the sound of gongs and drums sounded, and it was festive. The old men and the little officials who greeted the marquis were also full of smiles, and this meeting immediately made Lei Xianchu let go of a little bit of his thoughts, and secretly said that these bandits are still aware of things, and they know that they can't afford to offend me, those heads just now are just a trick, if I show weakness, they will have to inch in, if I show strength, they will also put out their minds and honestly listen to Hou's arrangement.

Peeked at Zhou Shixiang, and found that the other party was looking at him with a smile on his face, Lei Xianchu couldn't help but be sure that his guess was good, and after nodding politely to the old men, he was about to get off the horse and say a few polite words to Luo Ding Zhizhou, who came out of nowhere, and then said some words to Luo Ding's father, on behalf of the imperial court, to encourage them, but saw that Zhizhou actually signaled himself to enter the city, and he didn't understand the rules and etiquette at all.

Yes, this fake Zhizhou is also a poor sour, it is estimated that the bandits kidnapped to do what military divisions, what officialdom rules can this kind of goods know, and what etiquette they know.

Thinking of this, Lei Xianchu was too lazy to compare the dignified guerrilla with a false governor, and entered the city first. Seeing him enter the city, although Pang Tianci looked confused, he had no choice but to follow him into the city, when he passed by Song Xianggong, he deliberately looked at the other party twice, and said in his heart, You, the fake Zhizhou, don't even have an official uniform, and it's too fake, you Dao Zhizhou Lord is what a character like you who doesn't know anything can do? When Lord Lei takes over Luo Ding, it's okay not to kill your fake Zhizhou.

The guerrillas entered the city first, and the 200 Gaozhou soldiers were also full of spirit, and they were ready to present the best appearance to the people of Luoding, so that they could know the majesty and power of the Ming official army.

The same is true of the officers, but they have a little more thought, and they all think about how to find some names and get some money after entering the city. Although Lord Lei is not Lord Qincha, he came on behalf of the Governor, and Lord Governor is the Emperor of the Emperor. On behalf of the emperor's personal envoy, isn't it sent by Qin. Since Lord Qincha is here, this Luoding is a city that has just been recovered, so it is public and private, so how can it not lose the soldiers. Besides, these bandits must have made a fortune in the city, and now that the real Ming official army is here, can they be worse than their gang of bandits? If the official army is really not as good as the bandits, there is no royal law!

Lei Xianchu entered the city first, the horse had just entered the city, and before he had time to scan the city and see Luo Ding's face, there was a sudden roar all around: "Long live Da Ming, long live, long live!" ”

A huge roar suddenly sounded, without warning in advance, and suddenly the mount was uneasy, Lei Xianchu is also a hereditary military attaché, although he has no ability to fight, he still has the skill of controlling the horse, and he finally settled down the horse with a pull on the reins. Pang Tianci didn't have such good equestrian skills, and the mount was not a war horse, so he couldn't stop pouting his hooves in this roar, so shocked that Pang Tianci couldn't help but scream "get it", and he almost fell off the horse, and he was really ugly in a hurry. Fortunately, there was no danger, and the mount finally quieted down after pouting its hooves a few times.

If the mount is like this, the person is not much better. The Gaozhou soldiers were all startled by this loud noise, and you raised your guns and I drew my swords, as if thousands of enemies had come. Some of the soldiers were even more frightened and retreated, and the good team was simply disorganized, and the two hundred people were huddled together in the hole of the city gate.

Lei Xianchu was the first to recover his mind in shock, and in his sight, the city wall, which had no one before, was suddenly filled with soldiers with swords and guns, and there were also groups of taxis in black clothes in the open space in front of the city gate. Around those black-clothed soldiers, there were densely packed people in all kinds of clothes, all staring at the cave in the city gate.

"Long live Daming, long live, long live!"

The shouts of tens of thousands of people sounded again, this time no one from Gaozhou was shocked, and no one was at a loss, but their faces were very ugly.

Lei Xianchu's face was extremely ugly, he was leading the troops, so he naturally knew what it meant to have a neat army, at this moment, he was no longer happy that the bandits were not weak, but he was afraid that the bandits were too strong.

The heads of the people who were placed in the carriage before, and now the heads of the people standing in front of them, although they are also human heads, but one is dead and the other is alive! Aren't there only a few dozen of these bandits, why are there thousands of them now?

Pang Tianci's face was also uncertain, looking at the black-clothed soldiers, and then at the people behind the black-clothed soldiers, he felt a little bitter in his heart: This Luoding City seems to be a Hongmen banquet

In the past two days, I took my old mother to see a doctor, which delayed the update.
