Chapter 150: Strong Leader
Gang Qiang has set up a full score in front of me, according to the position, he is now only the rank of battalion leader, I also have the rank of battalion leader, belonging to the same level of military rank, I have no need to show him the posture of a subordinate to slap the horse, only he is the head of the horse.

However, since he is now in charge of the defense of Tokai City, and he is bound to be promoted to general in the near future, there is nothing wrong with showing favor to him now, and as the so-called more friends have more roads, I have found a soft excuse for myself.
Gangqiang is very satisfied with my respect, and he speaks with a smug look, and when he asks me how to sneak attack the food army of the White Turban Army, it is almost the tone of the boss asking his subordinates, which makes me quite uncomfortable in my heart, and I feel that the strong is nothing more than that, and the proud and complacent soldier is not a long-lived person in my opinion, and it is said that it is a show of favor to him, but rather a show of favor to the power behind him.
The strength behind the strength, through layers of speculation, is undoubtedly the county that rose up in this turmoil, what kind of person is this big man in Donghai County, I have asked countless times in my heart, but the second son showed his face in front of me in advance, looking very tender, eager to establish his own power, so I feel that he really has no strength, therefore, it is insignificant whether to take refuge or not, just keep a certain distance, and wait until the return of Taishou to reestimate his strength.
I nursed an injury in Donghai City for a day, and at night I dragged my sick body to the Taishou Mansion, Lao Zhang can be regarded as my Bole, his death I still feel a pity from the bottom of my heart, in front of his coffin I can't help but sigh and sigh, not very emotional, however, I do not have much friendship with Lao Zhang, his death is just a ripple in my life, since I walked out of the Taishou Mansion again, I will no longer be sentimental.
When I hung filial piety, I only had a face-to-face with Lao Zao, he was very busy, and he didn't have time to take care of me, all the rich families in Donghai City came to hang filial piety, he was responsible for presiding over the funeral alone, and he was very busy, and he didn't seem to take other things to heart, so I didn't bother to ask him about other things.
Lao Shang has disappeared since he returned to Taishou Mansion, and I don't know what he is doing, and my friendship with him is just a polite friendship of colleagues, not a close friend, it can be said that I don't have a real friend in Donghai City, the kind of friend who can stick a knife in both sides.
I went to the Taishou Mansion to hang my filial piety and labor chapter, but I didn't get any useful news, but there was another thing that I didn't expect, the main Bo Laoye hanged himself in the prison cell, saying that he committed suicide in fear of sin, and his housekeeper was the same way of death and the same reason for death.
I couldn't help but sigh from the earth, it was really funny, and I laughed unconsciously before I walked down the steps of the Taishou Mansion and stepped on the dark streets, where a few people occasionally appeared, but they all looked trembling and a little unnatural fear.
I wanted to take advantage of the calm of the night to go to the restaurant in the city to eat something, who knew that after walking around, they were all closed and closed, I had to go back to the courtyard, no sleepiness at all, lying in bed for too long, the body was disobedient and excited, looking at the bright moon in the sky, the light sprinkled in the yard, my heart was unusually clear.
In the same bright moon, shining on Donghai City and the White Turban Army camp outside Donghai City, a reproachful sentence came out of the tent: "Why don't you lead the sergeants to attack the city, now that you have lost this opportunity, there will never be such a good opportunity again." It turned out to be Lao Xinde who spoke, and the whole city did not search for Lao Xinde, but I didn't expect Lao Xinde to escape from Donghai City.
"If your fire had burned a day earlier, I would have attacked the city, and last night's fire was too late." Gong Mingzan looked indifferent, and lost his ambition to win.
"What's going on, with my internal cooperation, your more than 20,000 sergeants of the White Turban Army can't capture Donghai City, which has less than 5,000 defenders?" Lao Xinde said angrily.
"We were ambushed and lost almost six thousand sergeants." Gong Mingzan said Hongtian behind him.
Lao Xinde looked at Hongtian in surprise, hoping that he would explain clearly.
Hongtian said gloomily: "Some time ago, at the junction of Nanwang County and Hailing County, an army attacked our grain convoy, and then sent a battalion of sergeants to attack the Jidong Pass, until the day before yesterday, a force suddenly appeared in Nanwang County, and we sent people to ambush it, but we were ambushed by the defenders of your Donghai City, fell into a trap, and suffered heavy losses. ā
"This ...... How many people were there in the ambush army, and who were they? Lao Xinde asked anxiously.
"If you guess correctly, it should be the Wolf Mountain Army from the north." Hongtian replied.
"I see, the movement of the Wolf Mountain Army was suddenly much quieter, and I thought it was withdrawn, it turned out to be to ambush you with the conscription army on the Far East Pass, it must be a trap that Qiao Tianmu came up with, this person should not be underestimated." Lao Xinde suddenly realized.
"Those Fire Moon Sergeants on the Far East Pass are also not to be underestimated, they are all brave and invincible warriors, and we have been defeated by them several times." Gong Mingzan interjected, he seemed to know Sergeant Huoyue well.
"The Huoyue people, the descendants of the royal family of the previous dynasty, it is true that we are not able to defeat alone, but there are only a few hundred people." Lao Xinde said disdainfully.
"If it's just a few hundred of them, it's not a matter of worrying as you said, but if those hundreds of people are carrying hundreds of people, or even thousands of troops, it's unimaginable and immeasurable." "We've been planted under them three times. ā
"Is it true that your grain and grass have been cut off by the levies?" Lao Xinde said in shock, at that time, he thought it was a rumor that Lao Zhang deliberately released to boost the morale of the army.
"It's true, therefore, don't say anything to continue the siege, only choose to retreat, wait for the soldiers to be strong, and the food and siege equipment are sufficient to attack Donghai City, the siege has suffered heavy casualties in the past few days, and the sergeants have begun to be timid." Gong Mingzan said extremely unwillingly, his brows furrowed very tightly.
"Hey, it's a failure." Lao Xinde also seemed unwilling, and at the same time felt extremely uneasy and worried in his heart.
But Gong Mingzan's next words made Lao Xinde feel a lot more at ease, Gong Mingzan said: "General Lao, this king still wants to thank you, although you and my plan were not successfully implemented, but you can join my White Turban Army, I feel very gratified, in the future, you and I will fight side by side, and when he comes to Donghai City in the future, he will inevitably trample Donghai City under his feet." ā
Lao Xinde was speechless, firstly, he was the general of the defeated army, and secondly, what kind of character Lao Xinde was, not to mention the general trend of the world, he could see it all clearly, but how much more than ordinary people could see it thoroughly, how could he not understand the situation of the White Turban Army now, although he didn't know how big the White Turban Army was, but the big situation was very clear to him, the military governor of Donghai County.
Originally, he was let go by Gong Ming Praise and returned to Donghai City, thinking about not agreeing to the plan of Gong Ming Praise and Wronging the snake, who knew that the ghost made the god send him step by step on the road of no return, saying that it would be a lie to say that he did not regret it, Lao Xinde regrets it now, his family is small, but all of them are still in Donghai City, who knows if Lao Yanfei will take his family first.
If he can calculate the ability of the conscription army, he will never rebel again, and do things such as plotting to assassinate Lao Zhang, there will never be an what if, only the truth of history, just like the subordinate who chose to inform, once he chooses, there is no possibility of turning back.
