Chapter 65: Waiting Five
On the third day after Xie Wu eliminated the invading enemy, a group of about 30 people on the street of Sanfa ran to a fairly delicate courtyard and knocked desperately on the door. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info [Full Text Reading]
After a while, the door opened and an old man came out, and then looked at the group in front of him with a surprised expression, his clothes were already full of mud, and he looked hungry and tired.
"You're standing here waiting, waiting for five, what's going on with you? The old man asked you to take more than 300 people to ......" Speaking of this, the old man sighed helplessly and continued: "Hey! Go and explain it to the master yourself! ”
"Third master! The third master begs you, you must help me plead for mercy when the time comes! ”
Yes, this person is the fifth master who lost the battle, and while he followed the old man into the house, he begged the old man to intercede for him when the time came.
Although it seems to outsiders that he has a very high status under the master, he knows in his heart that he is just a dispensable dog that bites under the master. And there is no shortage of such dogs under the master, usually he has nothing, but once he loses the battle, someone will naturally replace him!
However, this seemingly ordinary person who opens the door, he is not simple, he is very trusted by the master, and he can even ask about some company matters.
However, the old man didn't seem to mean to help him, but just snorted and said, "When you left, I told you a thousand times that you must take this place down for me!" Because it's important to you, but look at what you look like now! ”
Fifth Master! Ah, no! Now he didn't have the appearance of the master at all, he bent down and looked at the old man with an aggrieved face, and then said unexpectedly: "Third master, we lost this time!" This is all the old king's fault! Yes, he is the one who harmed him, he has already taken refuge in the other party, so we will be ambushed! ”
Hou Wu seemed to have suddenly grasped a life-saving straw, and put all the responsibility on Old Man Wang. Anyway, he was either dead or caught, and he was indeed ambushed!
"I can't control this, you should tell the master yourself when the time comes!" Saying that, the old man glanced ahead, and then said to Hou Wu: "Wait here!" ”
Then Hou Wu watched the third master knock on the door and entered the master's study, Hou Wu looked at all this with envy, which represented the importance of status in the eyes of the master.
However, after not envying for a while, Hou Wu began to worry about how to organize his language to minimize his guilt.
After waiting for five moments, he heard the voice of the third master and asked him to go in and reply to the master by himself.
Hou Wuqiang cleared his throat calmly, then raised his hand and knocked on the door, and only dared to enter after hearing the command.
Hou Wu entered the door and looked up, the old man was sitting behind the desk looking at the book, with a serious expression on his face that he couldn't see his current mood, next to him was the third master who opened the door just now. Hou Wu knew that he could only rely on himself at this time!
"Master, Hou Wu is wrong! You just see that you have followed the master for the sake of following the master for the sake of Hou Wu for the sake of being conscientious! Master! ”
Yes, I will play the bitter card when I come up on May Day, after all, I have followed the master for so many years, and there is hard work without credit!
"You're so daring! Remember what you promised me before you left? That's how you do things for me? ”
This sentence sounds very plain, but Hou Wu is very scared, the calmer he is, the more anger it represents!
"Master, Hou Wu really knows that he is wrong, and he can't blame me for this failure! It was the old king who led us into the trap designed by others! ”
Hou Wu was about to cry as he spoke, this is not just acting, he is really afraid, his own master is definitely terrifying!
"That's it! Behold you up! The old man frowned slightly when he saw Hou Wu's performance, and then continued: "I'm not interested in this, tell me what happened to you!" ”
Hearing this, Hou Wu was relieved, and then told him in detail what happened along the way.
Of course, it's all about how he was deceived by Old Man Wang, how he was ambushed, how powerful the opponent's musket team was, and how he organized a counterattack with heroic performance, without embarrassing his own master or anything, let's talk a lot!
It was still the third master next to him who kept reminding him of his eyes, and Hou Wu knew that he was verbose, and then stopped in a funny way.
"Okay, you can go out, although I am not satisfied this time, but you have been with me for so many years after all! Go back and get some rest! ”
Hearing this, Hou Wu was like a primary school student hearing the end of school, thanking his master again and again and then going out!
"Rubbish!"
Seeing Hou Wu fleeing in embarrassment, Master Xue whispered helplessly. Then he turned his head to look at the old man standing next to him and said, "What do you think?" ”
"We have to take Shilongmen, if the master wants to get the seat of the main hall and defeat the Xie family, just one or three ditches can't fight the Xie family!"
Hearing this, Master Xie nodded without a trace, and then said: "It is inevitable to take down Shilongmen, but not now, they will definitely be vigilant after Hou Wu makes such a fuss, so let's plan carefully after a while!" ”
About three more days passed, and Kuching Port was boiling again!
The weather was not so sunny and there were dark clouds drifting through the sky from time to time, but this did not dampen the enthusiasm of the people on Kuching Harbour.
At about ten o'clock in the morning, someone had already seen a large iron boat on the sea in the distance. As Kuching Port residents who have been living in Kuching Port for almost three months, they all recognize that this is the owner's ship.
Then the citizens of the good deeds spread again, so by the time the ship arrived at the port, the shore was already full of ordinary citizens who had come to welcome them.
It's been almost a week since the attack on Shilongmen, and at the beginning, I heard that someone came to attack Shilongmen, and everyone was basically scared, after all, they were used to being bullied by those people, so their first reaction was to be afraid, and then find a way to escape!
But fortunately, Xie Wu and Li Maolin reacted in time, and quickly came up with a countermeasure, so that the soldiers formed a patrol team and patrolled the streets every day.
When the panicked and frightened ordinary people who were ready to flee saw the ranks of well-dressed, mighty, and well-trained patrol soldiers on the streets. They inexplicably felt safe, because these soldiers were not only walking but also standing, and they had never seen such a strict army. In addition, they know that only here can they feel like they are living like a person!
Although they are not leaving, it is the leader here, that is, the biggest official, who can give them a sense of security in the end. But they haven't been seen for almost ten days, which is the main reason for their uneasiness!
So at noon today, the people on the beach saw the big iron boat again, and they knew that the big officials here had returned, and they were completely safe. Yes, it seems that as long as they can see Wang Kun standing there, they are not afraid of doing anything!
Now Wang Kun has become the support of all the people under Wei Feng, and he is already a stabilizer in the hearts of all the ordinary people under the general's mansion. Because they almost all know that Wang Kun is the biggest official here, and he is really working for the benefit of every civilian!
