Chapter 196: Night Talk on the Street of Donghai City
My answer is that I must participate, and the only purpose of my peace talks with them is to be able to borrow the strength of their two thousand soldiers, otherwise, what is the point of my peace talks, I can now say that there is no shortage of gold and silver, what I lack is food, the mouths of two thousand more, how much food needs to be provided.

Because of the third condition, the peace talks were at a stalemate, and the final solution was to raise the issue of bilateral support from Quan Xiangyou, they had a threat from within the Whale Shark Kingdom, and when the rebels pursued all the way here, we should also provide military support.
Although this request is very tricky, it is undoubtedly very reasonable, and I agreed, which can be regarded as a courtesy. At this point, the peace talks came to an end, and I continued to ask the officer who was sitting in a precarious position, a general of no low grade and a real character, called Whale Zuo.
The envoy of the Whale Shark Kingdom is the Whale Shark Princess, the fugitive Prime Minister Quan Xiangyou, and the general Whale Zuo, after introducing the people of the Whale Shark Kingdom, they began to ask about my general flag on the left.
The soldiers seemed to be only interested in the soldiers, especially the ones who were intimidating to look at, and Whale Zuo expressed great reverence for the strength of the Demon Moon, and he asked, "This officer doesn't know what to call it, but he must be the number one warrior under the Fire Spirit General." ”
"The general flag demon moon, the number one gladiator in the world of the Dragon Kingdom, once fought in the Dragon Country Gladiatorial Arena with one enemy and four, and the four opponents were all first-class gladiators, he won and became famous all over the world since then." I couldn't help but say that I was so proud of him.
"I have heard for a long time that the gladiatorial arena of the Dragon Kingdom makes people's blood boil, and this princess hopes to be able to witness the bloody scene of the duel of the warriors of the Dragon Kingdom." The Whale Shark Princess said.
"Princess Whale Shark has a chance, I will let you see the grand occasion of the Dragon Kingdom gladiatorial arena." I haven't seen it either, I've only seen the European and American movies "Gladiator" and "Spartacus" on TV, and I've been shocked by its bloody scenes.
The next introduction was completely overshadowed by the magic moon, after three rounds of wine, the two armies were not very deep, it was not advisable to drink more, so it was dispersed, and I also promised the whale shark princess that in the afternoon, I would evacuate Shapingba, and I would hand over the extreme east pass to them, and ask them to send troops to defend.
The whale shark princess was very satisfied with what I did, showing infinite temptation to come out, so that I was overjoyed, I really wanted to stay for a few more days, upside down, tired and crooked and then it was not too late, but unfortunately, I am not a person who loves beauty and does not love the country, I left Shapingba without hesitation and returned to Nanwang County.
Returned to Nanwang County, broke away from the conscription army, walked into the temporary mansion, and just sat down to drink a cup of tea handed over by the little maid, the laborer appeared in the courtyard, walked in quickly, and asked with a split face: "Fire Spirit Battalion Leader, you came back so quickly, did you make another war exploit?" ”
"No, the merits are not so easy to get." I poured the whole cup of tea, it was very unpleasant, and asked the little maids to continue to pour, these little maids were selected from the hungry people, homeless, and I arranged for Lao Yu to be trained, and stayed in the house to do chores and serve.
"I heard that you don't have much damage, how can you not make a meritorious battle?" The merchant asked strangely.
"We didn't meet the whale shark pirates, they left, and fled back to sea." I lied.
"I see, the whale shark pirates are just like that, they were scared away by the Fire Spirit Camp Leader." The merchant had the impression that the whale shark pirates were very capable of fighting and fighting, and the army that had come from the royal capital could not exterminate them.
I laughed and scolded: "You also come to my sycophancy, what orders can be sent to Donghai City these days?" ”
"The body of Lord Taishou has been brought back, and the messengers have already returned to Tokai City," said the merchant after taking a sip of tea, "If you don't come back, I will have to go to Tokai City to attend the funeral of Lord Taishou." ”
"Has the cause of Taishou-sama's death been clarified?" I asked.
"Well, when Lord Taishou passed through Xianggun, he was coveted by bandits and victimized by bandits." Lao Shang explained.
After labor, it is the most ridiculous Dragon Kingdom Taishou, he actually died in the hands of the bandits, he is immortal, and in the end, he can't cultivate King Kong without breaking his body, and he can't even resist the sword, and the ridiculous and pathetic Taishou is more than innocent.
"When will I be buried?" I asked again.
"The day after tomorrow, if you delay it for a few days and don't go, I'm afraid that you won't be able to say it, and your newly acquired military exploits will be yellow." Labor and business.
I breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's still too late the day after tomorrow." ”
"I advise you to rush to Donghai City overnight, in case they use your disrespect for Taishou and your private dispatch of troops to attack the whale shark pirates as an excuse to rectify you." The laborer suddenly reminded me.
I was taken aback, yes, I thought I could hide the past, but how could I hide such a big thing, it was someone from Donghai City who came to deliver a letter, I came back from Hailing County, and there was nothing to do, so why did I delay not going to Donghai City to pay tribute to the soul of Lord Taishou?
I stood up and said to the laborers, "Thank you Brother Lao's reminder, I'll leave for Donghai City." ”
But the merchant said, "I am with you." ”
Lao Shang did this thing in an authentic way, did not stumble on me, did not fall into the well for me, I remembered it in my heart, looked at him gratefully, and expressed my affection.
While instructing the sergeant to prepare the horses, I also instructed the maid that I would not go back to the backyard, but rush to Donghai City in a hurry, inform my wife that I would be alone, and after the arrangement, I would rush to Donghai City with the labor merchants.
It was already late at night when I arrived at Donghai City with the labor merchants, and the soldiers guarding the city did not dare to open the city gate before, but after confirming that it was my fire spirit, the battalion leader of the conscription army opened the city gate and let me in.
Walking on the wide streets of Donghai City, I didn't think that I was a little hungry, tired, tired and hungry, so I asked Lao Shang in a depressed manner: "Brother Lao, what kind of supper stalls are there in Donghai City late at night, I have space in my stomach, I have to eat something to satisfy my stomach." ”
My voice was unusually clear in the silent streets, the surrounding desert was terrible, the dark alleys, the dark houses, unpredictable, we walked in the night without seeing our fingers, in fact, it was also strange and scary.
After a while, Lao Shang replied, and said, "At this time...... There is a ...... In the west of the city, it has been closed, only ......"
I asked, "Only what?" ”
"The brothel is open and customers can eat, do you want to enjoy the gentle township and eat something by the way." The laborer joked.
"Forget it, go directly to the North City Gate and find something to eat from the Fire Gaoling General Banner," I changed my mind and said, "I should bring some dry food on the way." ”
"At this time, there are no sergeants patrolling, our Donghai City is really bold enough." The laborer suddenly sighed.
"Maybe they've calculated that the White Turban Army won't raid Donghai City, so they just go to sleep." I quipped.
"The soldiers defending the city, no matter how big or small, must always be vigilant, and in wartime, they must not be negligent," said the laborer excitedly, "I will definitely give the son, the lady, and the county a copy of the general flag of the city patrol." ”
I smiled bitterly and said, "It's up to me to take part in this matter, you, a civilian official, can't control the army, and it's not clear who is in charge now." ”
Lao Shang also smiled bitterly: "In troubled times, it is better to join the army, make meritorious contributions, be invincible, how glorious and mighty!" ”
I said, "Fighting a war is a matter for a reckless man, and a talented man like you should rectify the commercial economy of the county is the right way." (To be continued.) )
