(Thank you for saying that Dream Idiot and Gu Yu are really full of monthly passes!) ）

Li Congjing sat on a big rock, drinking water and eating dry food, glanced at Duan Jiangong not far away, and said to Mo Li with a little inexplicability: "Isn't this expedition a collision with evil, and you have to cry when you see someone?" ”

Mo Li's clean and neat white robe was stained with blood, and he was helpless against the blood stains with a depressed face, and he also glanced at Duan Jiangong when he heard the words, "Do you think he cried sadly?" ”

"It's very sad, I have to fight with the knife man last night." Li Congjing said honestly that he handed a piece of water and dry food to Mo Li, and Mo Li took the water, but he waved his hand and didn't take the dry food.

took a sip of water from the water bladder, Mo Li took out a folding fan, opened it and shook it lightly, and sat down next to Li Congjing, "The facts tell us that only people with stories can cry so sadly." This guy should also be a person with a story. ”

Li Congjing pondered for a moment, beckoned Lin Ying, and asked him to bring Duan Jiangong over.

When he arrived in front of Li Congjing, Duan Jiangong had already stopped crying, and it seemed that he had accepted the fact that it was reality rather than a dream, and his eyes were still a little dull, which made Li Congjing's heart slightly strange, and he asked him in as soft a tone as possible: "How many people have you ambushed in the Sanwan River Valley?" ”

"A thousand." Duan Jiangong stood in front of Li Congjing, his eyes were empty, and he replied mechanically.

"There are no reinforcements in the back?" Li Congjing asked again.

"A thousand." Duan Jiangong replied.

Li Congjing frowned, thinking to himself that he only knew how to say the word "thousand"? Then he changed the question and asked, "What is Duan Ning's plan to fight this time?" ”

Duan Jiangong just wanted to speak, before he issued the word "soldier", immediately closed his mouth, his eyes returned to clarity, and when he looked at Li Congjing again, he was full of vigilance, paused, and spoke: "Do you think I will tell you such a confidential matter?" ”

He said this very seriously and reasonably.

Li Congjing wanted to laugh a little, but he couldn't help it, he looked at Duan Jiangong with a serious face, and said very seriously: "If you don't answer my question, you will die." ”

Duan Jiangong was angry, he said loudly with some excitement: "The eldest husband would rather die than give in, it is glorious for a good man to defend his family and defend the country and die on the battlefield, if you want to kill me, you will kill me, if you want me to defect to the enemy and betray the country, don't think about it!" ”

Li Congjing opened his mouth, and suddenly found that he didn't know what to say, because he felt that Duan Jiangong was serious when he said this, and he might not be afraid of death. Glancing at Duan Jiangong playfully, Li Congjing smiled and said, "You were abandoned by Duan Ning and made a bait, do you know?" ”

Duan Jiangong was even more angry, he stared at Li Congjing angrily, and said angrily: "Li Congjing, you are also a general with great achievements, I thought that you must be brave and decisive, but when I saw it today, you disappointed the general!" You want to sow discord between General Duan and General Duan and let me betray General Duan, don't you think such a counter-plot is too naïve?! ”

This time, not only Li Congjing lost his smile, but even Mo Li couldn't hold back, haha laughed, he was free and easy, and his demeanor was free, and he leaned forward and leaned back with a smile when he smiled.

Duan Jiangong glared at Mo Li in annoyance, but he couldn't say anything, after all, his current identity was a prisoner. Li Congjing stood up, patted Duan Jiangong's shoulder, and sighed old-fashionedly, "If you don't believe it, I won't force you to believe it, you will understand in the future." But although you are now a prisoner, I don't have to kill you, you just act with my army, and if you figure it out in the future, you will know that loyalty to the country does not have to be loyal to the commander. ”

After that, without waiting for Duan Jiangong to say anything, he waved his hand and asked Lin Ying to take him down. He also called Lin Xiong over and praised him: "Capturing the enemy generals is a great achievement, and I will remember it for you first." ”

Lin Xiong smiled and said, "Small dishes, small dishes!" ”

At this time, a cavalry came galloping from the rear. It was Li Congjing who left behind last night to bury the corpses of the villagers, and they rushed up at this time. Li Congjing took a look and found that the swordsman last night was also among these people, and after dismounting, the swordsman followed a soldier to Li Congjing.

While taking care of the war horse to eat and drink, Li Congjing met with the swordsman.

"When we left, he insisted on coming with him and said that he would like to see the commander." The soldiers reported to Li Congjing.

Li Congjing nodded, let the sergeant go down to rest, and the movement of combing the mane of the war horse in his hand did not stop, and glanced at the swordsman.

This swordsman should not be very old, at most no more than thirty years old, but his appearance is very vicissitudes, not only because he has a bearded face, his hair is scattered, and his skin is sallow and slightly dark, but his eyes, as if precipitated half a century of wind and rain stories, look sad.

The swordsman stood beside Li Congjing, quietly watching Li Congjing take care of the war horse, his life experience may be bumpy, but his waist is still very straight, Li Congjing felt right yesterday, he is like a pine on the edge of the cliff, although he has been exposed to the wind and sun, he is still proud.

Li Congjing didn't speak, and the swordsman didn't speak, he had an unruly temperament, but he also knew how to be respectful and humble, and knew that Li Congjing wanted to speak first.

"Buried?" Li Congjing asked thoughtlessly.

"Buried." The swordsman said that his voice was mellow and he knew who Li Congjing was asking.

Li Congjing finished taking care of the war horse, patted the horse's neck, and the war horse neighed happily and ran to the side. He turned to the swordsman and asked, "Why do you want to see me?" ”

The swordsman's gaze was always looking straight ahead, whether it was Li Congjing's war horse, or Mo Li, who was shaking a fan and looking at him on the side, he didn't pay attention, now that Li Congjing was standing in front of him, his eyes fell on Li Congjing, and he asked, "I heard that the general is going to face Duan Ning?" ”

"Not bad." Li Congjing almost knew the intention of the swordsman.

The swordsman said: "I want to kill Duan Ning and avenge Xiaoqing and the people in the village." Please keep me by your side, I am willing to serve the general. ”

His words were very direct, like the knife he used to kill last night, straight to the point, never beating around the bush. He said this very naturally, and he was also very confident, only a confident person would reveal in his words that Li Congjing would definitely use him.

The swordsman is indeed very capable, at least his skills are the only ones Li Congjing has seen in his life, but now Li Congjing almost knows why such a capable person is so down-and-out, he is too direct, too capable of dealing with people, and does not know how to be flexible. Or rather, he disdains to be flexible. People who have the ability are always a little arrogant.

But such people often value love and righteousness, and Li Congjing likes people who value love and righteousness.

Li Congjing did not immediately respond to the swordsman, but glanced at the six knives on his body and said: "Your knives are fast and many, but no matter how fast one person's knives are, it is impossible for him alone to take the head of the enemy general among the ten thousand armies." ”

The swordsman was silent, he understood what Li Congjing meant. After being silent for a while, the swordsman said: "I know that the general can't let the army cooperate with me because I want to take revenge, if I go to the general's side to serve, the general will deliberately let me take revenge, and I will not change the established steps of the campaign, not only that, but I also have to obey the general's orders and not cause trouble to the general." In this way, I may never be able to kill Duan Ning, and I won't even have a chance to get close to him, even if the general defeats Duan Ning. ”

Li Congjing smiled slightly and said, "Not bad." ”

The swordsman is indeed a little conceited, but he is self-aware, and he knows that Li Congjing can't deliberately do too much in order to accept him as a person, especially when it comes to the actions of the army.

The swordsman fell silent again. Li Congjing could see that he was thinking deeply.

"You don't have to answer me now, you can think more and think more clearly." Li Congjing said.

"No, I've thought it very clearly." The cloth-clothed swordsman looked at Li Congjing, "On the way here, I have already figured it out." Speaking of this, he knelt down in front of Li Congjing and said, "My name is Ding Hei, and I am willing to follow the general from now on and serve in front of the general's tent!" ”

He said this very solemnly, and Li Congjing knew what it meant to him to say such a thing. Picking up the swordsman, Li Congjing was very happy in his heart, he could get such a swordsman, with good character and skills, and it was unpredictable how useful he would be in the future, he said: "I am Li Congjing." In the future, you will follow me and be a personal guard first. ”

The choice of the swordsman is not surprising, if he wants to take revenge, there is still a glimmer of possibility to follow Li Congjing, if he does not rely on Li Congjing, he doesn't even have any hope.

Ding Hei hugged his fists and promised.

Called Lin Ying and asked him to take Ding Hei down to settle down, and Li Congjing returned to Mo Li and sat down.

"This Ding Hei is a little interesting, you saved him last night, buried the villagers for him, and promised to give him a chance to avenge, but he didn't even have a word of thanks, strange!" Mo Li smiled meaningfully.

Li Congjing shook his head and answered Mo Li's question, "If such a person says thank you, it may mean that the debt between you has been paid off, and he will not do anything for you anymore; If you don't say thank you, he may repay your kindness for the rest of his life. ”

Mo Li smiled and said: "Such a guy, one is one, two is two, the grievances are clear, and he is sensitive to words and deeds." Brother Li, it looks like you've picked up another baby. ”

Li Congjing smiled a little proudly.

After stopping here for a while, Li Congjing asked the gentlemen to line up again, and before they were ready to leave, a horse army team followed, no less than two or three thousand people. After this horse team arrived, without an order, it consciously merged into the formation of the gentleman. They are the remaining 2,500 gentlemen.

At this point, all the gentlemen have gathered here, waiting for Li Congjing's dispatch.

"Brother Li, where is this trip?" Stepping on the war horse, Mo Li asked Li Congjing with a smile, taking advantage of the last gap before hurrying, he shook the folding fan a few times and put it away.

Holding the reins of the horse, Li Congjing's eyes fell on the front, he raised his hand, pointed forward, and said, "To the east!" ”
