Chapter 38: Datong, Shanxi

After Xiao Yi and his entourage entered the customs with Wang Zheng that night, they apologized to Xiao Yi after hearing what happened, saying that it was an unintentional mistake, and Xiao Yi was also flattered, and it was okay to return. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

As the night passed, the sky was getting brighter, and a red sun slowly appeared on the horizon in the distance, bringing bursts of life to the vast land.

Xiao Yi was woken up by someone sent by Wang Zheng early in the morning to go to the hall, and after Xiao Yi went to the hall, he saw Wang Zheng and Liu Rui, who had already been waiting for him, and Xiao Yi hurriedly wanted to meet Shangguan in person. Because this Wang Zheng is a general all the way, although he is not his direct superior, according to the law of Da Ming, he will also be deducted when he sees him.

Xiao Yi was only halfway down on his knees, but he was dragged by Liu Rui, who was hurrying over, and said with a smile, "Xiao Yi doesn't have to be like this, the general said that there is no need to be polite, guess why we called you here?" ā€

Xiao Yi thought for a moment and asked, "Isn't the reward for silver coming?" ā€

Wang Zheng shook his head and said, "The reward on the top has not come down yet, it was only reported last night, I heard you say that you were going to Tunpu last night, we discussed it overnight, Tunpu is a big deal, and we will make up a hundred taels for you first." Xiao Yi, you can get out of the customs today. After speaking, he looked at Xiao Yi's expression.

Xiao Yi understood after listening to it, it seems that he was still swallowed some, and he still thought that these two people were too simple, this Wang Zheng and the two were in a hurry to leave by themselves, so that they could wait for the reward to come down and share the spoils?

Xiao Yizhi knew that he was beheading one level three taels, he beheaded fifty-four last night, that is, one hundred and sixty-two taels, and now he is in a hurry to give himself one hundred taels, it seems that he wants to send himself away, and it seems that he has been privately swallowed at least more than sixty taels.

But Xiao Yi was worried that it wasn't money, so he asked cautiously, "My lord, what about last night's horses?" ā€

After Liu Rui heard this, he paused for a moment, and then snorted, "Xiao Yi, I see that those horses are all weak, and I am afraid that they will not be able to move forward, so they will be fostered here by us first, which is also what the general meant, what do you see?" After speaking, he stared at Xiao Yi again.

When Xiao Yi heard this, it was really exploited to the extreme, no wonder no one went to suppress the thief, even if the thief was successful, the credit had basically been exploited, and there could be a lower-level soldier What is the matter, sigh in his heart. It's not the time for me to blackface with them, and now I want to have no power, I want to have no soldiers, I can only forbear.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yi laughed, "Thank you two adults for thinking so much about Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi was so moved, and he was going to Changning Town today." Xiao Yi couldn't wait to leave the sight of the two immediately.

Wang Zheng was also a lot happier to see that Xiao Yi was so sensible, and he held Xiao Yi's hand like an old friend for many years, and even changed his title, "My brother will come often in the future." ā€

Xiao Yi thought that if he still had such a friendship, it would still be a boost to his future development in Tunpu, and he should have spent money to buy a relationship. He arched his hand and exited the hall.

As soon as Xiao Yi walked out of the hall, Wang Zheng's complexion changed, and the smile on his face fell again. Slowly spoke, "I heard that this kid is from the Jingshi, and he has also participated in the guard battle. ā€

Liu Rui said disdainfully, "General, let's leave him alone, plus the group of criminals executed by you and me a few days ago, there should be two hundred taels of rewards this time." ā€

Wang Zheng also smiled, "I really didn't expect to make such a profit when I went out last night." But he hesitated, "If we are found out about doing this, won't it chill the hearts of the soldiers?" ā€

Liu Rui said as a matter of course, "This Xiao Yi looks like an old man, I can't tell which Zhuangzi came out of the people, where do you think so much, besides, you and I will earn so much, and the sanctimonious old defender of Peach Blossom Fort earns less than you and me?" Wang Zheng also nodded, "This Xiao Yi's subordinates can see that they are all strong men, I'm afraid that the old guy is going to make a lot of money on this group of reckless men." ā€

What these two guys are talking about is that they can't exploit some more oil and water on Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi went out of the hall and immediately went to find Huang Yang and a few people, at this time it was actually just the beginning of the sun, as soon as he got out of the hall, Xiao Yi felt a dazzling eye, and when he looked up, he saw a round of sunrise still hanging in the sky like a red sun.

Everyone was asleep, Xiao Yi woke everyone up, Xiao Yi felt that Shi Lu was happy and he was relieved, so he asked Shi Lu to go to the concierge to get the money, and asked Huang Yang, Wang Dayong, Shi Gang, and Liu Tong to gather Yiyong to wait for him outside.

Xiao Yi went to the blacksmith camp in the gate to take a look, and found that there was no one on duty.

Xiao Yi, who was disappointed, shook his head, it seemed that he was still in a hurry, where would there be any good blacksmith in this small pass, if he couldn't find it, he couldn't find it, and he walked around again, remembering the main place here. Xiao Yi walked out of the mahogany door at this time, but found that Shi Lu had already loaded the silver money and was waiting for him with everyone.

Xiao Yi thought that he already had four hundred taels of silver in his hand, which were the basis for building a fort in the future, and the more Xiao Yi thought about it, the more he looked forward to what his future place would look like, like a big city on TV? Still is

Xiao Yi turned over and got on the horse, but when everyone arrived at the gate, they saw that the soldiers guarding the gate directly opened the gate to let them pass. It should be Wang Zheng who said hello, Xiao Yi remembered but still couldn't believe it, Xiao Yi's performance last night made Xiao Yi admire, and even thought that he was a friendly person, but he didn't want to lose his previous good impression this morning.

Alas, forget it.

Xiao Yi and the others galloped out of the gate, Xiao Yi slightly tightened the mandarin duck jacket on his body, the weather has gradually become cooler, it seems that according to this itinerary, he can arrive at Peach Blossom Castle today, and it is the key to prepare food and clothes for his brothers first.

With the closing of Mashuikou slowly closing, it is already the territory of Datong Mansion in Shanxi.

Although it is only the end of the second year of Chongzhen, according to Xiao Yi's understanding, Shanxi is one of the first areas where peasant uprisings broke out, and now the territory of Shanxi and Shaanxi should be full of hundreds of peasant armies, large and small.

The current peasant army is not like the last years of Chongzhen, first, it is a plate of scattered sand, and second, the combat effectiveness and equipment are still only in the initial state. Xiao Yi still has time, but time is running out.

There was another thing yesterday, that is, not long after returning to the room last night, the battle report of the Jin army after the battle of the king army outside Beijing was transmitted again, this time without the Guanning iron cavalry, it was always Man Gui who fought to the death so hard, and the final result was only failure.

The Qinwang coalition army was defeated by the Houjin army at three miles outside Beijing, and the chief officer of the war, Man Gui, was killed in battle, Sun Zushou and other generals were killed, and Ma Dengyun and others were captured alive.

Although Xiao Yi knew the news of Mangui's death, he still couldn't help but feel sorry for Mangui, Xiao Yi had seen Mangui's courage in the city of Deshengmen urn, when the Xuanda general soldier Hou Shilu was defeated, only Mangui was still fighting to the death, and he was still undefeated for half a day, and he was completely relying on Mangui who was the main general to fight to the death.

Now Xiao Yi and others are galloping in the territory of Datong Mansion in Shanxi, Xiao Yi knows that these lands are the capital of his own business in the future, but Xiao Yi looks at the yellow and cracked land caused by perennial drought, but he still can't help but be disappointed, these can be good farmland, but only because of natural disasters and man-made disasters will lead to this.

This is Datong, Huang Yang sighed, after five days of traveling, he finally arrived in Datong from Beijing, with Xiao Yi along the way what he saw and heard was something he didn't dare to think, and he also changed a lot, which also strengthened his belief in following Xiao Yi.

Huang Yang originally thought that his Zhuangzi's life was hard enough, but he didn't expect that the once rich Central Plains was such a scene at this time, and the Jingshi who had made him dream of it was like this...

Now that he has finally arrived here, how much will he follow Xiao Yi here.

Huang Yang took a deep breath of turbid air, shouted, and followed Xiao Yi, Shi Gang, Wang Dayong, and Liu Tong, and behind the five people, forty-five horsemen followed.
