Chapter 40: International Mercenaries

"Governor, Governor! There was one thing: "A ten-captain happened to lead a patrol to pass by, trotted a few steps, approached the war horse, and reported in a low voice.

"Say!" Zhu Bayi pulled the reins of the war horse hard and ordered loudly. He doesn't have much of a fight, so he has a very good relationship with the low-level soldiers. Whether they are brothers of the left army or not, they are willing to say hello to him when they meet, and they are willing to inform him as soon as they have any new news.

But today, the ten-captain named Lu Li obviously didn't run up to say hello. He lowered his voice a little, and added very cautiously, "Two days ago, when you were away, there was a rakshasa ghost who used to shout to see you. Later, he was knocked unconscious and dragged away by the Koreans directly with a stick! ”

"Rakshasas? Looking for me? Zhu Bayi was stunned, a little not quite believing his ears. Since the end of the battle that day, he has not had any intersection with the Rakshasa soldiers. These guys don't want to continue the "labor reform" well, what are they doing when they come to find themselves?

In the middle of confusion, there was a sudden shrill sound of chains dragging the ground. Immediately after, there was a strong smell of rotten eggs. When I looked up again, I saw a hairy gorilla rushing towards him with its teeth and claws, and its mouth kept screaming for help, "Help, help!" Help, master?! ”

"Master?!" Although the gorilla's Chinese is not standard, Zhu Eighty-one also understood what he meant, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned. Before he could come back to his senses, the Captain of Ten had already rushed forward with a steel knife, and with a knife on his back, he smashed the gorilla-looking guy to the ground.

"Catch him, catch him!" At this time, the two Goryeo talents who were in charge of overseeing the work chased after them, raised their wooden sticks, and hit the "gorilla" indiscriminately, "Run!" Tell you to run! Shocked the general's war horse, our family will skin you alive. Run, you'll run again! I was killed directly today, saving our family from worrying every day! ”

"Stop!" Although Zhu Eighty-one didn't have a good impression of the gorilla-like Rakshasa people, he had a worse impression of the Goryeo overseer. Seeing that the gorilla was about to be beaten to death, he frowned and shouted orders.

As soon as the words fell, the two Goryeo overseers immediately seemed to be convulsed. "Puff, puff" lay on the ground one after another, kowtowing, and begging for mercy loudly: "General, the general is gracious!" It's not that the villain's supervision is unfavorable, it's this, it's that this Rakshasa is too cunning, too cunning! ”

"That's it! You two get up and stand aside! Zhu Bayi frowned and continued to whisper orders.

The two Goryeo overseers obeyed the order, hurriedly crawled to the side of the road with their hands and feet, and continued to kneel with their heads bowed, not daring to walk away immediately. The "gorilla" who was beaten to the point of bleeding from his mouth and nose immediately climbed a few steps forward and bowed deeply towards Zhu Bayi, "Thank you for your grace." Ivanov did coolies, wasted! Ivanov still has, and there is a lot of use. Please be merciful to the master and allow Ivanov to redeem himself! ”

He was wearing only a cloth at the moment, and his body was covered with dung juice all over his body, along with the chains that bound his hands and feet. When it moved, it stinked. Zhu Eighty-one was so smoked that he almost gave out yesterday's dinner, quickly pulled the horse's head to the upwind, frowned and asked, "What did you say?" When did I become your master? Self-redemption, what does self-redemption mean! ”

"Ivanov lost to his master, as a slave, serve!" The gorilla hurriedly turned his head and responded with a "clanging" gesture with his hands, "I didn't lose to others!" To be a slave to others, not to obey! ”

"Will you be my slave?" It took Zhu Eighty-one a lot of effort to piece together the meaning that the other party wanted to express. It turned out that this guy thought that he had only lost to himself on the battlefield that day, so he was only willing to be a slave for himself. If you change to anyone else, you won't be convinced.

"Yes! Ivanov is ready to fight for his master! The gorilla immediately had a look of ecstasy on his face, and he continued to make a gesture of "killing for the master, killing any enemy." Ivanov was a mercenary, not a coolie. Dig up the dung, it's wasted! ”

It's all mixed up like this, and you still think you're a character? No wonder he is beaten every day. Zhu Eighty smiled and automatically ignored the boastful part of the gorilla's words, and went straight to the point, "Are you a mercenary?" Since he is a mercenary, why didn't he work hard in his own country, but he came to Xuzhou?! ”

"Yes, it was His Majesty the King of the Golden Horde who hired us at his expense!" The gorilla thought for a moment, and his reply gradually became fluent, "The Mongols under him are few and expensive, and they don't want to go to war." We Slavs are many, cheap, loyal, not afraid of war! ”

It turned out that the Golden Horde spent money to hire a group of mercenaries, mixed in with the recruited soldiers, and sent them to the account of the Mengyuan Emperor in the capital city as cannon fodder. No wonder this gorilla-looking guy actually ran to the battlefield in Xuzhou! In an instant, Zhu Bayi figured out the ins and outs of the whole thing. I was about to learn something about Europe in this era from this person, but he was preempted by the other party and shouted at him: "Ivanov has been a mercenary for twenty years, and has fought with the Normans, the Saxons, the Ottomans, and the Catalans!" Ivanov will fight, experience, much experience! When coolies are used, you lose money, you lose a lot of money! ”

"Bragging, knowing how to fight, why don't you let us capture the prisoners?!" Without waiting for Zhu Bayi's response, the surrounding Red Turban Army officers and soldiers had already laughed loudly.

Hearing the laughter in all directions, Ivanov's face turned slightly red. He waved his hand a few more times and defended loudly: "I wasn't arrested by you." It was arrested, it was caught by the general, the general. The Shogun has mastered the secret of gunpowder. Ivanov lost convincingly! ”

"Go! Cooked duck with a hard beak! ”

"It's all at this time, and it's still hard-mouthed! Just being beaten doesn't have a long memory! The red scarf soldiers continued to taunt with disdain, but their voices were significantly quieter than before. Everyone knew in their hearts that the guy in front of them, who looked like a big horse monkey, was telling the truth. If it weren't for Zhu Dudu's earth-shattering blow that day, I am afraid that everyone present would have been chained as coolies at this time!

Zhu Bayi's mind was quite clear when he heard the other party's words, so he pressed his hand down, and continued to ask with a smile: "You mean, you don't want to continue digging gutters, you want to be a soldier under my account, and use your skills?!" ”

"No, not as a creep!" The gorilla had a look of surprise on his face, but he shook his hand and continued to bargain, "It's to be an officer, at least to be the commander of a thousand people." Ivanov worked as a mercenary, captain of mercenaries. When you are a soldier, you lose a lot of money! ”

"Phew! Lack of greed! ”

"You have to make inches, and you don't pee to show what kind of virtue you are!"

Hearing that this person still wanted to be an officer, all the red-scarf soldiers surrounded him again, spitting and spitting loudly and mocking.

The gorilla Ivanov refused to give in, and shook the chain on his wrist as a sound, and the stench spread outward with himself as the center, "I know how to fight, at least better than you." You know how to rush forward like ants. I, but we know how to line up and cooperate, and stab you to death like sheep, row after row! ”

"Beat him!" I don't know who shouted, all the red scarf soldiers rushed up, fists and feet, knocked the gorilla to the ground again, and rolled with their heads in their hands, "Oops, oops! You don't have the right to beat me, I am, I'm a prisoner of the General. You guys, you don't have the general's consent! Oh, General, kill me, and you'll lose a lot of money! Lost a lot of money! ”

"Alright, give him a breath!" Although Zhu Eighty-one was also dissatisfied with this person's attitude when he spoke, he also understood that in terms of battlefield organization, the Red Turban Army was indeed more than a little bit worse than the group of Rakshasas that day. Therefore, he first drank the brothers, and then said to the "gorilla" who had been beaten so that he could not get up: "If you want to be an officer, stand up and follow me!" As long as you can prove that you are really capable, I don't mind having one more Slavic commander under my command! ”

"Whoa!" Ivanov, the gorilla who had been holding his head in a dying shape earlier, immediately stood up from the ground. Shaking the iron chains on his body, he bowed to Zhu Bayi, "Ivan, Ivanovich, Ivanov, willing to serve you!" ”

"Ivan, Ivanovich?" Zhu Eighty-one looked around, but didn't find where the other two people were. The red scarf soldiers were also full of vigilance, and they looked around with their hands on the hilt of their knives. Three of them came, but everyone only saw one. If the remaining two people have ill intentions towards the Governor, they will not be able to atone for their sins.

"Ivan Ivanovich Petrov!" After all, he was a veteran oilman, and the gorilla immediately understood what everyone was guarding again, and pointed to his nose to introduce it again.

"You stinky and shameless, it's so long to take a name!" Only then did the red-scarf soldiers realize that they had made a joke again, and picked up their scabbards and struck them at Ivanov. Ivanov was all about tickling himself, shook his torso, which was already so thin that he could see his ribs, and continued to say loudly: "Mercenary! The master needs to allow Ivan to redeem himself. One year, not two years. Ivan worked for nothing for two years for his master, without receiving a salary. Then the master allowed Ivan to leave freely! ”

"Think beautifully!" Glancing at him, Zhu Bayi sneered in a low voice.

What is going on? When others cross, they either become their own boss, or they follow the boss who is heroes like Li Shimin and Han Gaozu. When the little brother is needed, the tiger's body is shocked, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei bow their heads. It was Lao Tzu's turn, and he followed a boss who was unknown in history, and pulled out a gorilla from the pile of death row prisoners as a younger brother, and the other party had to bargain. Why is there such a big gap between this person and a person!

Thinking of this, he pursed his lips again and responded loudly, "Either stay and continue to dig feces, or follow me and me!" When to set you free is my business, and you are not qualified to bargain. ”

"I, I" The gorilla's face turned pale all of a sudden, and he hesitated for a while, after all, he didn't want to die in the stinky ditch like this. Gritting his teeth, he muttered in response, "I, I'll leave you." Thank you, thank you host for your grace! ”

"That's pretty much it!" Finally found a place to vent the evil qi in his stomach, Zhu Bayi glanced at the gorilla again, and coldly ordered, "6 Li, open his shackles!"

"Yes!" The Captain of Ten saluted and said yes, snatched the key from the Goryeo overseer, and stepped forward to unlock Ivanov. Then he threw the chain and the key back to the Goryeo overseer.

"Go back and tell the steward that this person has been taken away by the left army!" Zhu Bayi shook the reins of the war horse, dropped a word, and walked away.

How dare the Goryeo overseer stop it? Kneel on the side of the road and kowtow constantly. It wasn't until the sound of the horse's hooves was far away that he picked up the stinky chains and muttered, "Take it away, take it away!" A Rakshasa slave is still a treasure?! How can we be like our great Koreans, capable and obedient, and eat less! ”

When he said the word Dagoryeo, he immediately felt full of energy. Putting a chain around his neck, waving a wooden stick, he strode to supervise the work of the other Goryeo captives! It's as if you've been the second best in the world since you were born!
