Chapter 126: The War Is About to Begin
Separation is always the most uncomfortable time, Zilong came once, and only made a chicken called Huaji for Rushuang and Tao Hongjing, looking at the cold environment here, Zilong really can't imagine what kind of poor life the two of them lived.
After collecting all the belongings that could be collected on his body, he stuffed his brain into Rushuang, who looked at a bag full of gold bills and five baht coins, and said in a daze: "Senior brother, we don't need so much money!" ”
Zilong looked stunned, and then remembered that Rushuang was once the beloved daughter of the head of the clan, and she was a Xianbei nobleman, how could she understand the use of these gold and silver?
But what made Zilong even more sad was that the former daughter of the eldest lady lived such a shabby life in this barren mountain and wilderness, and Zilong suddenly felt that he was really useless.
"Take it, it will always be useful!"
What else can be said? Zilong can only try to let these two people have some valuables around, in his opinion, at least when there is an emergency, they will not be shy.
"Hehe, if you want me, these things are a scourge!"
Tao Hongjing's sudden interjection made Zilong stunned, thinking about it, it is true, this troubled world is surging, the husband is not guilty, there are valuable things, but they are the bane of disasters.
However, Zilong still insisted on letting them accept it, after all, it is better to have it than not to have it.
Tao Hongjing didn't care about these copper-smelling things, after all, people are also people with realms, but Rushuang put these things away with great care, and then looked at Zilong's dirty and tattered clothes, stunned for a moment, and ran back to the room.
After a while, he took out a bag, opened it, unfolded a white gown, and Zilong was stunned when he saw it, he had a white gown, but he was reluctant to wear it for a long time, it was given by Zijuan at the beginning.
I remember that Rushuang was jealous of this at that time, could it be ......
Sure enough, Rushuang nodded his chin, as if he was thinking hard, and after a while, he frowned and said: "I can't remember, the master said, this is what I carry with me, I remember who I should be going to give it to, but I can't remember, senior brother, you are busy outside, sleeping in the open air, and it is also excellent to cover the wind and rain!" ”
As he spoke, he stuffed the robe with its baggage into Zilong's arms.
Zilong stroked the smooth robe, his heart was sour and unbearable, this, this was simply given to him by Rushuang, Zilong subconsciously thought so.
Because Rushuang once gave him a long shirt to Zijuan, and he cherished it very much, he was angry, and he didn't know how long it took Rushuang to learn to be a female red.
Shaking off the long shirt, the snow-white placket, the collar was red, very eye-catching, Zilong looked at it, it was at the pinhole, and when he looked carefully, there were also some dark red spots, and I don't know how many places.
Zilong's hands trembled suddenly, these, these should be blood stains that fell from his fingers when he sewed a long shirt, right?
Suddenly turned around, his shoulders trembled violently, Zilong didn't know how to express his current mood, he only wrapped the robe in his arms and hugged it tightly.
"Master, junior sister, I'm leaving, take care, I'll be back soon!"
Saying that, he ran out without looking back, and he didn't have time to say goodbye without even saying goodbye, looking at the back that was gradually moving away, he suddenly felt some pain at the tip of his heart, such a separate scene, déjà vu.
Zilong ran all the way, and couldn't help telling himself in his heart that he would come back as soon as possible, and when he came back, in addition to coming back to pick up Rushuang and his master, Zilong also had to avenge Rushuang with his own hands.
"Ge Rong, Wei Kegu, you should die!"
Although he was very anxious to kill the two miscellaneous people, Zilong still tried to keep his senses, and he must first exploit the surplus value of these two people.
After thinking about it for a long time, Zilong returned to the Dingzhou City Post Station, slept hastily all night, and didn't say anything to the two entourage, and set off to return to Zuoren City the next day.
Zilong did not hide that there was no gain from this trip, because he knew that the casual Ge Rong retainers would truthfully report the situation to Ge Rong.
However, Zilong can still give full play to some of the clues seen on this trip, after all, those two retainers may not be able to think of it, and even if they see it, it is just an appearance.
Zilong is actually gambling again, he is betting that Ge Rong's trust in him now can support him to do some extra homework.
"Although there is not much to gain from the market for some strategic materials, I have found a very important problem."
Zilong said meaningfully, and glanced at the stunned Ge Rong retainers by the way.
Ge Rong didn't want the two retainers to verify it, but just looked at Zilong with great interest, wanting to see what kind of harvest he could say.
Zilong laughed secretly, Ge Rong would definitely not show distrust in front of him, this was something he had expected, so he didn't delay, and said with a smile: "Wei Kegu is expanding his military strength!" ”
"What?"
Ge Rong's color changed suddenly, and he glanced at the two retainers standing next to Zilong, his brows furrowed, as if he was annoyed, but it was inconvenient for him to have a seizure.
Zilong smiled very happily, because he not only saw Ge Rong's gaffe, but also saw the confused and stunned expressions of the two retainers.
"Dingzhou City is now ten rooms and nine empty, although the war has been burning frequently for several months, but it will never reach this level, and even some minors, twelve or thirteen-year-old boys have been pulled to join the army.
And it seems that he is quite loyal in training, and his immature face has a military temperament, so I conclude that Wei Kegu is expanding his military strength for a long time!
If he wants to expand the strength of the True King, presumably Ge Shuai should also hear the rumors, but my Zuoren City is the base camp of Ge Shuai and the True King, and it has not reached the level of Dingzhou City.
What's more, Dingzhou City is more than twice as large as Zuoren City, and there are even few pedestrians, which shows that Wei Kegu has already arranged this part of the expanded military strength in another place, so ......"
Zilong said half-truthfully, what he saw with his own eyes, the two retainers also saw it, and he couldn't refute it, what he deduced, the two retainers didn't think of it, and there was no way to refute it.
Therefore, the two retainers were the ones who really got nothing on this trip, and even Ge Rong gave them the task, they did not perform it very well.
After a long time, the two retainers didn't say anything, Ge Rong frowned, thinking hard.
"If according to what my brother said, then Wei Kegu, for what purpose did he expand his military strength so secretly?"
Ge Rong's diligence and inquisitiveness, Zilong still admired it very much, at least at this time, Zilong was very appreciative, found a chair to sit down, and Wu Zi picked up the empty teacup and looked at it.
The two retainers poured the prepared tea for Zilong very familiarly, and stood aside, just waiting for Zilong to say why.
Zilong picked up the teacup, took a sip gently, and peeked at Ge Rong's anxious expression from between his fingers, and smiled.
"Ge Shuai, the news of the defeat of the true king is about to spread to Zuoren City, in my estimation, there will be people talking about it in less than a month, we have to prepare early!"
Ge Rong was stunned for a moment, and looked at Zilong with deep meaning, Zilong was very sincere, but Ge Rong still felt that this matter was quite strange, after all, just based on the population of a city, it was a bit too mysterious to infer Wei Kegu's intentions.
However, not everyone in the Righteous Army is united, each with their own thoughts is the biggest problem of the Righteous Army, who doesn't want to make a name for themselves in the troubled times, scold Fang Xuan, and become the co-master of the world? Even if it becomes a hegemon, it is enough to leave a name in history.
Ge Rong himself has this distraction, and he also believes that others have the same thoughts.
"Ordered the three armies, three days later, the soldiers sent to the six towns, contacted Wei Kegu, discussed Du Luo Zhou, and sent the messenger to report to the true king, not to fall in love with the war, return to Dingzhou as soon as possible, and preside over the overall situation!"
After listening to Ge Rong's arrangement, Zilong's original smile gradually became a little solidified.
Blowing the tea leaves floating in the teacup, his eyes were stunned, and he was secretly surprised in his heart.
After a while, he smiled reluctantly and looked at Ge Rong with a complicated expression.
"Ge Shuai made a decision immediately and arranged it properly, Zilong admires it!"
Ge Rong glanced at the two retainers meaningfully, and said with a smile: "I want my brother to mention more, this handsome can't live without you!" ”
The two of them had their own thoughts, looked at each other and smiled, Zilong said goodbye, and left the house but did not go to his small courtyard. (To be continued.) )
