Chapter 144: Scheme
Chapter 144
After Wu Yue heard this, his face changed, and he suddenly raised his knife and slashed into the void, shouting to everyone:
"Dead old man, don't think that you are some kind of bullshit patriarch, I am afraid of you, Lao Tzu just thinks that you are all people of Yan Kingdom, and you don't want to kill people at will, if you don't let me in again, you will be in a hurry, Lao Tzu will not be polite!"
Hearing this, behind him, the soldiers of the Yan Kingdom, who had just looked shriveled and listless, suddenly had their eyes lit up and drew their swords in unison.
In an instant, the sword light reflected in the eyes, and the people subconsciously retreated, and the atmosphere became solemn.
However, the patriarch's face remained unchanged, he smiled, stretched out his hands and pressed down, and said to Wu Yue:
"Lord Wu need not be angry; The reason why the old man does not let the generals enter the mountain is because the mountains are full of old and young women and children, which is really inconvenient.
After speaking, he made a gesture with his right hand, and several people behind him immediately walked forward holding a plate covered with red cloth.
Wu Yue's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but swallow a few mouthfuls of saliva, and before they could walk up, he impatiently took a few steps forward and lifted the red cloth.
The yellow light flashed, it was thousands of years, and people gave up their constant nostalgia, as if it was deeply imprinted in the bone marrow, and it was an innate love.
Wu Yue's eyes were straight.
After a while, he coughed lightly, took a step back, nodded, and a few soldiers behind him immediately understood, stepped forward, and took over all the plates of gold.
The patriarch looked at this qiē, looked indifferent, and said with a smile:
"There are few people in the village, this is all the savings in the village, and today all of them will be handed over to the general, I hope you can raise your noble hand and let us go."
Wu Yue smiled on his face after hearing this, frowned and scolded:
"What do you mean by 'raise your noble hand,' I said, old man, there are some things that you can't talk nonsense," he said, reaching out to the soldier behind him, and continued:
"Brothers, in order to resist the invasion of the Southern Barbarians for you, fought bloodily, killed countless enemies, and killed a lot of people because of this, the rout of the army was not the original intention of the brothers, but I didn't want General Guan Zhenguan to take the enemy lightly and lose the city, we saw that the general trend had gone, and we were powerless to reverse the situation, so we decided to save our strength, and intended to go north to Zhongliang, and continue to resist the invasion of the Southern Barbarian thieves, old man, without our protection, you would have become the soul of the Southern Barbarians, where is there still a chance to say cool things here and ridicule us!"
After hearing this, the patriarch bowed his head and saluted:
"It's the old man who said the wrong thing, look at Lord Haihan, don't blame."
Wu Yue's eyes flashed, he snorted coldly, and said:
"Old man, it's useless for a few of us to ask for gold, after we arrive in Zhongliang, we will hand it over to the general, and when the army goes south and takes back Dingbian, the benefits are indispensable to you!"
The patriarch bowed again and thanked him.
Wu Yue nodded and continued:
"The old patriarch doesn't have to be polite, everyone is serving the country, I, Wu Yue, have offended a lot of what I said just now, and I hope that the patriarch has a lot of people, don't blame it."
The patriarch was stunned for a moment, he didn't know why Wu Yue suddenly became so humble, his eyes flashed, but a smile appeared on his face, and he replied: "It is an honor to be able to make a modest contribution to the country." ”
Wu Yue laughed when he heard this, and said to everyone:
"It's rare that the patriarch has this heart, the army has traveled a long distance, the road is difficult and dangerous, it is extremely difficult to walk, we came out in a hurry, and we didn't bring enough food, since the patriarch is dedicated to the country, Wu will be cheeky to borrow some food from the patriarch, and return it when the time comes!"
The patriarch's face changed after hearing this, and after a moment of silence, he replied:
"General, we are here to avoid the wind and sand, and there is not much food and grass, but since the general has spoken, the old man will naturally do his best to help the general!"
Before the words fell, I saw that the smile on Wu Yue's face was even stronger, and said:
"The patriarch is really cheerful! After I arrive in Zhongliang, I will definitely state the merits of the patriarch to the adults, as long as I Wu Yue is here, I will definitely not treat you badly. ”
After speaking, he took a step forward, patted the patriarch on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "The patriarch understands the righteousness, and this is the fortune of the empire. ”
As he spoke, he walked down the hill, the soldiers behind him glancing at each other and walking forward behind him.
The crowd walked very fast, and in a short time they walked into the valley.
Seeing this, the patriarch's face turned dark, but he did not follow, but threw a look at the villager who had been standing next to him, and the villager nodded knowingly, turned around and quietly left.
Only then did the patriarch catch up with Wu Yue, with a sad face, and said:
"General, it's really inconvenient, now the village is full of old and young women and children, saying that the weather has changed too much in the past few days, the mountains are humid, and many old people in the village are sick, if the generals are infected with diseases because of this, although the old and dead are not enough to atone for their sins."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pulled Wu Yue.
Wu Yue was furious when he saw this, shook the patriarch's hand aside, and scolded with a change in his face:
"Patriarch, in order to avoid the pursuers, we have killed many brothers, all the way to eat and sleep, not even a hot meal, although we are a defeated army fleeing, but we have the heart to continue to serve the country, now you are blocking in every way, not letting us into the mountains, driving us out, is it good to collude with the guards, want to kill us!"
Speaking of this, he stopped, looked around, took a step back suddenly, pulled out his knife, and the soldiers behind him then drew their swords together.
"Old thing, what about the young man who kept bowing his head and not speaking beside you just now, don't think that your old man Wu doesn't know anything, say, did he sneak away and report to Weiguo!"
The patriarch didn't seem to expect Wu Yue to be so keenly observant, he was stunned for a moment, then looked around, shook his head and smiled: "General Wu said that it was funny, even if someone really reported the news, it would take a lot of time to go back and forth to Dingbian, and besides, the people in the village have always been the people of the Great Swallow, how could they turn their backs on the country and become traitors." ”
Wu Yue smiled slightly after hearing this, stood up straight, put away the knife, walked to the patriarch, and said, "It's Wu who is too careful." ”
The patriarch's expression was relaxed, he smiled, and was about to speak, but before he could speak, he saw Wu Yue suddenly raise his foot, kick him down, and scolded in his mouth:
"Fuck, the dead old man toasts and doesn't eat and drink, Lao Tzu talks to you well and you don't listen, you have to annoy Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu sues you, brothers not only want money and food, but also women! Originally, Lao Tzu planned to leave just after playing, leaving you some food, so that you can have a way to live, but you are so ignorant that you have to provoke Lao Tzu to be angry, then don't blame Lao Tzu for being polite! ”
After saying that, he kicked the patriarch again and shouted to the soldiers behind him, "Brothers! ”
Everyone's eyes lit up, and they drew their swords together and shouted, "Here! ”
At a glance, I saw that they were in good spirits at the moment, and there was still a little shadow of the defeat that had just been defeated.
When the people saw that the patriarch had been knocked to the ground, they all came forward in anger, but as soon as they set out, they saw the soldiers holding their swords and waving them, and stopped them.
Wu Yue saw the sad and helpless expressions on the faces of the people, and he was overjoyed, stretched out his legs, and kicked the patriarch who was struggling to get up to the ground.
Seeing that the old patriarch who was still pretending to be just now, quite majestic was rolling in the wolf, Wu Yue's heart was relieved, he laughed, he opened his mouth and was about to speak, when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head, he screamed in pain, reached out to hold his head, and quickly retreated behind the soldier.
Wu Yue felt that the pain in his head was very sharp, he put down his hand to take a closer look, only to see that the palm of his hand was red, and he broke his head with a stone thrown by someone just now.
He cursed secretly, squinted his eyes and looked around, and found that the people in front of him were showing a blank look, he was startled, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and looked overhead, only to see a few figures standing there on the hillside that was not very high, and the stones they threw were the stones.
Wu Yue was furious, pointed at them, and shouted to the soldiers:
"Fuck, dare to beat Lao Tzu, I'm impatient, you guys go up and kill me directly!"
Several soldiers shouted yes and ran up the hill.
At this time, they were majestic, and the color of decadence was swept away.
Wu Yue saw them walking away, and suddenly drew his knife and turned to the patriarch, and at the same time scolded in his mouth:
"Damn, if you dare to attack me, Lao Tzu will kill you, an old man who doesn't know whether to live or die."
At this moment, Wu Yue suddenly heard several screams behind him, and the sound sounded violently, which was terrifying.
Everyone was shocked.
Wu Yue hurriedly looked back, only to see an arrow shot from nowhere that knocked several soldiers standing behind him to the ground.
His heart sank, and his heart sank to the end, it seemed that these villagers had already taken precautions, and they attacked the enemy lightly and fell into their ambush.
As for the few soldiers who grabbed people on the hillside just now, they couldn't see their figures, and they didn't know when they were shot to death.
Thinking of this, Wu Yue's eyes rolled, and he hurriedly turned his head and wanted to arrest the patriarch as a hostage first, but the patriarch who had just fallen to the ground was rescued by someone and was now fleeing into the mountains surrounded by everyone.
Wu Yue had cold sweat on his head, and he was pecked by a sparrow when he was an eagle all year round.
It's not okay to storm the mountain, now you either retreat, or step forward to grab the patriarch, it seems that retreating is the safest, but according to the current shape, the villagers are very likely to set up an ambush at the entrance, thinking of this, Wu Yue gritted his teeth, made a move with one hand, and shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Brothers, these Diao people are reversed!" Give it to me, catch them all and kill them all, not a single one will be left! ”
The soldiers behind him shouted together: "Kill! ”
Then, this "remnant army of the defeated army fleeing north" grabbed the patriarch and hurried towards the depths of the valley.
The mountains on both sides of the valley are not high, but they are relatively steep, and it takes a lot of effort to climb up, the valley is tortuously between the two hills, and it is very difficult to walk, but because the people in the village go in and out all the year round, they are very familiar with the terrain, so Wu Yuejun is far behind.
Fortunately, there were no more villagers on either side of them who were harassing them with arrows, but they could still be seen sneaking around the mountain, following them.
Wu Yue walked more and more surprised, seeing that he couldn't catch up for a while, the thoughts in his mind turned sharply, and he commanded a few words to the left and right.
The attendant received the order, and turned to give the order. R1058
