Chapter One Hundred and Five: Battle Barbarian
"Hmm, what?" Only then did Liu Fa react, and when he saw Jiang Baiyan clenching his fists and lowering his head, he was a little puzzled.
"If you don't punish this time, it will be difficult to convince the public, and I ask the general to surrender." Jiang Baiyan gritted his teeth, he did something wrong, and he still needs to bear it himself.
Liu Fa smiled complicatedly, and finally had an idea, he looked at Jiang Baiyan, and said in a deep voice: "This time, we have lost a lot of grain and grass, and we are about to go north, if you really let you eat dozens of military sticks, I am really afraid that something will happen wrong, and now there is one thing that you need to do, if you do it well, the merits and demerits will be offset, if you do it badly, the two crimes will be punished together, and the thing is like this......"
Jiang Baiyan's heart sank, he knew what Liu Fa asked him to do, although it was not to embarrass him, but it would not be too simple, it might be a little tricky, but he still had a whole face and began to listen to Liu Fa intently.
Last time, Qing Yunfei snatched a large amount of grain and grass from An Qiusheng's hands, but this batch of grain and grass did not have a serious name, so he could only temporarily let Qing Yunfei hide in the mountains, but now that he is leaving, it is time to take out this batch of grain and grass.
Liu Fa is willing to treat Jiang Baiyan as his own, and it can be seen that Jiang Baiyan has gradually integrated into his circle, and it is time to say some things, he was silent for a long time, and looked at Jiang Baiyan: "Baiyan, I believe in you, so you need to do this matter." ”
Jiang Baiyan nodded, just waiting for Liu Fan to speak.
"Some time ago, Geng Changwei secretly approved a pile of grain and grass for An Qiusheng, but this pile of grain and grass was intercepted by Qing Yunfei, this pile of grain and grass is enough for a thousand people to eat for two months, not a small amount, I didn't dare to bring it back to the camp, so I let Qing Yunfei hide in the mountains, this is why Qin Tianzhao investigated the so-called bandits, and now the problem is, we need to get this pile of grain and grass back, after all, a lot of grain and grass have been destroyed today, not to mention that I am going north, this pile of grain and grass must be taken in my hand no matter what, do you understand?" Liu Fa finished everything in a deep voice, waiting for Jiang Baiyan's reaction.
Hearing Liu Fa say it, Jiang Baiyan was also cold, robbing grain is not a small crime, he was originally an extremely cautious person, and he frowned at this time, this is not a simple matter, many people are staring, and at this joint, he rubbed his head, and he really didn't have any idea for a while.
Gently glanced at Jiang Baiyan, smiled slightly, Liu Fa rode forward again, only Jiang Baiyan stood there blankly, thinking of a way.
There are not many people who know where the grain and grass are hidden, except for Qing Yunfei, who is the more than 100 barbarian soldiers under his hands. The local Liu Fa also told Jiang Baiyan, what to do is Jiang Baiyan's matter, in fact, Liu Fa has a headache, he brought out more than half of the people and horses, considered a lot, but still let the old fox put a piece, now with these grain and grass over, it is difficult for him to explain to the brothers in the army, nearly one-third of the grain and grass was destroyed, Liu Fa was also annoyed in his heart, but the most important thing now is how to get another batch of grain and grass back.
"Alas......" Liu Fa sighed, a little lonely, he couldn't find anyone to talk to him well, for more than half a year, he was actually very bitter in his heart, and he didn't want to change anything, but everything was happening, he could only go on and live.
Soon arrived at the camp, Xin He and the others were already a little anxious, and when they looked at the soldiers hanging their heads, Xin He frowned. He smelled another scorching smell, and he frowned even more.
Several soldiers at the entrance of the camp also looked over, they were all a little curious, Xin He snorted coldly, although the voice was not loud, many people immediately stood up straight without squinting, this prison army is very poisonous......
Liu Fa slowly walked in front of Xin He, his face was flat, at least it seemed so, Xin He bowed slightly, and went with Liu Fa into the camp, as for the grain and grass, the people in the back camp would also deal with it.
"What's wrong, it's not going well, what's going on?" Xin He poured a cup of tea for Liu Fa and pressed it on the table.
Liu Fa nodded, and when he saw that Xin He was still standing, he first gestured for him to sit down, and then explained the problem to him clearly, and Xin He also frowned when he heard it.
"I didn't expect this old guy to be really difficult to deal with, a little difficult!" Xin He smacked his lips, a little bitter.
Liu Fa nodded, then spit out a breath of turbidity, didn't look at the tea on the table, stood up suddenly, and said: "Okay, don't care about this, don't worry about the gains and losses of one city and one pool, see how Jiang Baiyan sent the grain and grass to me, don't make any mistakes." ”
Xin He nodded, and then said: "Brother Baiyan is stable on weekdays, it is estimated that there will be no accidents, he should still have a way." ”
"I hope so." Liu Fa pushed open the big tent and went out first, and it was almost time for dinner.
In the middle of the city, the city lord's mansion is beautiful, and it is brightly lit.
Qin Tianzhao sat high in the first place, his face was very bad, Geng Changwei sat on the side and frowned, for no other reason, there was a corpse placed on the main hall, half of the head was missing, his eyes were wide open, as if everything was just happening just now, An Qiulie stood in the hall, and he didn't say a word, and the entire main hall was dead silent.
"Click~Boom......"
A thunderclap sounded, and a cold wind blew into the hall, and the lights dimmed a little. An Qiulie was shocked, and his anger went up again, when he came over with his brother's body, he hoped to take revenge with their strength, but Qin Tianzhao didn't say a word. He could only put his hope on Geng Changwei.
The viciousness in Geng Changwei's eyes has never stopped, after all, it is his son-in-law who is lying on the ground, and he has also watched him grow up, Geng Changwei's daughter doesn't know the news yet, she actually missed a little bit today, not only did not let that kid suffer a big loss, but also lost a son-in-law.
"My brother died in front of me, died in front of me......" An Qiulie's voice was a little hoarse, with an abnormal taste, his eyes slowly changed from Suo Ran to fierce, he clenched his fists, and his whole face was tightly tightened, full of murderous intent.
"We've suffered losses a lot, Liufa, damn it!" Qin Tianzhao stood up suddenly and said in a cold voice.
Geng Changwei sat aside, his heart that was easy to calm down began to burn again, and the blood vessels in his head began to burst out, he opened his eyes, looked at the two people in front of him, tried to calm down and look at them, he exhaled a breath of cool air, and said in a deep voice: "This matter still needs to be considered in the long run, now this joint eye, many people are looking at us, Lord Shaofu is upright and prime!" ”
He is more afraid of Qin Wen, Qin Wen laid the foundation of the Southern Prison, although he is a literati, but he has the cruelty of his husband, he has seen it very clearly over the years.
An Qiulie was still slightly happy when he heard Qin Tianzhao's words, but he didn't expect Geng Changwei to say such a thing, he was a little cold, and he couldn't believe it.
As soon as Geng Changwei's words fell, Qin Tianzhao's face changed, he clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, looked at An Qiulie, patted him on the shoulder, and went out first, but he also signaled to let An Qiulie follow him.
An Qiulie didn't look at Geng Changwei, and then followed Qin Tianzhao and walked out. Geng Changwei smiled bitterly, maybe he was old and lost the enthusiasm of the year.
Before he went north, someone in his back had already pointed the finger at Liu Fa again, Liu Fa didn't know at this time, he was still worried about food and grass, and he didn't know how Jiang Baiyan was prepared.
Qing Yunfei yawned, he looked at Jiang Baiyan in front of him, and finally waited, he cheered up, now it's okay, everything depends on Jiang Baiyan, he is going to sleep.
Jiang Baiyan also knew that there was no way to discuss this matter with Qing Yunfei, he didn't have much time, he was going north tomorrow, and these grains and grasses had to be sent to the army tomorrow anyway, so he found a big stone and sat on it, with a little headache.
The time of one night is very short, just dawn, Liu Fa is already sitting in the big tent, he has a lot to consider, it is not an easy thing to go north, there are still many things to do, the soldiers and horses have not moved, the grain and grass go first He understands the truth, but he now chooses to believe in Jiang Baiyan.
Qin Tianzhao and An Qiulie discussed for half the night, and finally An Qiulie still went out of the city and quietly waited for Qin Tianzhao's arrangement.
"Do you really want to do this, no matter what the people under Liu Fa's hands say, they are also children of the Southern Prison." Geng Changwei walked over from the side and looked at Qin Tianzhao with a cold face, a little helpless.
Qin Tianzhao naturally has his plans, although he wants to get rid of Liu Fa, but the more than 1,000 soldiers under his command still can't give up, after getting rid of Liu Fa, he will lead the army to the north, this southern prison, in the end, is still the world of the Qin family, and in the end it is still his Qin Tianzhao's.
"I have made up my mind, Uncle Geng don't say more." Qin Tianzhao didn't plan to tell Geng Changwei, this matter doesn't need to be known, too many people know about it, to get rid of Liu Fa, you also need the power of "Sun and Moon", as for the barbarians under Liu Fa's hands, just hand it over to An Qiulie, he has to preserve enough strength, after all, Dali is still waiting, and it is really difficult to say whether they can send troops or not.
The military situation is urgent, stay one more day, the future of the southern prison will be more uncertain, Liu Fa can't wait, seeing that it is noon, Liu Fa has to pull out the camp and set off.
It was also at this time that there was a noise outside the camp, Liu Fan frowned, could it be that something would go wrong at this time, he looked at Xin He on the side, Xin He was also confused, Liu Fan patted him on the shoulder, and immediately went out of the camp with him.
Outside the camp was a group of people, even many of them were on crutches, they couldn't run, they had been in Chongcheng for a long time, their ancestors had been here for generations, even if the barbarians came over, they had no way to escape. They didn't bring anything, except for their desire to survive, their attachment to this land, and a big bag of grain and grass, Liu Fan sighed, and just wanted to refuse, when he suddenly saw a familiar face, it was Jiang Baiyan......
Liu Fa finally understood, Jiang Baiyan did not disappoint him, he thought of a way, and brought the grain and grass back to the army openly, he smiled, and ordered the soldiers to come out and get the grain and grass, although these grain and grass were taken back by Liu Fa from An Qiusheng, but at this time, it was extremely heavy for the soldiers in this battalion, they accepted these grain and grass, they also accepted the requests of these people, they understood what they should do and who they fought for.
Looking at a group of old people, children, they looked at themselves, in addition to simplicity in their eyes, there was also a point of hope, Liu Fan raised his long knife, burst into a fist, and then turned the horse's head.
"Let's go!" Liu Fa shouted, the flag was erected, a big willow word covered most of the day, Liu Fa sighed in his heart, he knew that everything had just begun, Chenguan, I came......
After Liu Fa set off, there was also a lot of movement in the city, and many people looked at Qin Tianzhao to see if he would let Liu Fa go and let Liu Fa leave like this. "Sun and Moon" have already begun to act, they have already infiltrated it, as for An Qiulie, he is like a poisonous snake, staring at Liu Fa tightly, waiting for Liu Fa to be tired and launch a fatal blow.
All the way north, Liu Fa found that the problem was more troublesome than he thought, the fact was that except for Chongcheng, all the people who came all the way were refugees, they were displaced, and they just fled in the direction of the south.
The scouts have been sent out, and now they have entered the area of Guangping Straight, and I don't know how many of them are in the hands of their own people.
"Come, give you bread." Seeing a pair of godless eyes, Liu Fa picked up a cake and stretched out his hand towards him. The kid didn't pick it up, just walked abruptly.
"Uh, boy, is the general talking to you?" A pro-soldier looked at this godless child and couldn't help but push him. Liu Fa frowned, but this kid still didn't have a little bit of brilliance.
The sound of horses' hooves gradually rose, and the scout hurriedly ran in the direction of Liu Fa, who immediately stood up: "What happened?" ”
"Report, report to General, there is a force of barbarians ahead, the number is about a thousand, and it is already twenty miles away." The scout wiped his sweat and looked very ugly.
Liu Fa frowned, then calmed down again, he looked at the scout and motioned for him to go down first. Xin He also received the news and hurried out of the camp. When Liu Fa saw Xin He, he immediately said: "Arrange it immediately, let these people move quickly, Jiang Baiyan, let him come to see me." ”
Xin He nodded, he knew Liu Fa's temper, in the era when human life was like grass and mustard, what did the people count, that is, Liu Fa, for someone else, everything was really hard to say, he could only come according to Liu Fa.
Qing Yunfei and Jiang Baiyan also rushed over quickly, more than ten or twenty miles, but it was only a matter of half an hour. I really didn't expect it to come so quickly. When Liu Fa saw the two, he immediately entered the big tent with them, and the situation was urgent.
There are not many people on the road, and I don't know how many there are along the way, but I heard the scouts say that nearly a thousand barbarians not far away have been chasing and killing the people of Nanjiao. Liu Fa no longer hesitated, there were not many cavalry in the army, and there were only a hundred military horses, Liu Fa decided to rush over first, but the generals were surprised.
"General, you can't risk your life, the other party's military strength is not much different from ours, you can't be reckless!" Jiang Baiyan's head was sweating a little, Liu Fa was not a reckless person on weekdays, how could he be like this today......
Liu Fa glanced at Jiang Baiyan, and then went to get the knife: "Okay, I don't know how many people will die later, don't forget what we are here for, this matter has been decided, you wait to come over quickly, I will go first." ”
Jiang Baiyan couldn't stop Liu Fa, he had no choice, stomped his feet, walked out first, and was even one step faster than Liu Fa. Liu Fa saw that Jiang Baiyan was in such a hurry, and he stopped talking nonsense, and left as soon as he got on the horse.
Qing Yunfei watched Liu Fa get on the horse, he didn't hesitate, and followed Liu Fa away. Liu Fa was stunned for a moment, his mind turned, it's okay, it's faster to bring three hundred barbarian troops, if you do it well, you may be able to kill the opposite one by surprise, after all, these are all barbarians, in comparison, the gap is not very big.
The autumn wind was bleak and steaming, and Liu Fa was anxious.
"Look, these dogs, hey!" The barbarians chased after a group of stumbling people, and from time to time they whipped them on their bodies, some old and some children, and they were like a herd of driven animals, losing their human breath.
They are the centaurs of the Chew Luo Division, they have no task, all they have to do is to rob, to snatch what others have, this is the barbarians, and their knives will be pointed at all those who are hostile to them.
"Okay, kill them, continue south, there are many more, we can bring them to the village, these dogs, they can't even be slaves, kill them!" A cold voice came out, he was the leader of this department, he touched his knife, and pointed to the group of people in front of him, as if they were a herd of cattle and sheep to be slaughtered.
Obviously, these barbarians are more like a group of ruffians, they haven't had a good time, although they don't say it in their mouths, but they still don't want to do it in their hearts, they are not soft-hearted, but they want to play a little more, not to mention, these animals still have the use of livestock......
The cold light flashed, and these barbarians finally made a move. For these animals, it is just a matter of a knife, and perhaps it is a relief for these people.
Suddenly, the sound of a battlefield came, the horse's hooves clattered, and the cold voice was the first to smell this danger, and he shouted: "Alert! ”
"Whoosh ......"
A cold flash flashed, and a few more groans, seeing that several barbarians had fallen to the ground, and after a thunderous shout, a big knife slashed over. Han Mang hurriedly slashed at a brute.
The brute only felt a chill, and then he no longer felt his presence. It's not Liu Fa, who is it!
The pupils of the barbarian leader shrank instantly, and the invincible man, he was powerless to resist, but there was a little more anger in his heart, which made him struggle painfully, and he was unwilling to die so mediocre.
"Ahh
After a painful resistance, Liu Fa didn't move, it was Qing Yunfei who greeted him, not everything needed to be done by Liu Fa himself.
They dared to attack themselves, these barbarians were really stunned, they fought all the way, and they only encountered weak resistance, and their reaction was not slow, they were angry, picked up their knives, and immediately rushed up.
The sword is merciless, and it is only the weak who die.
These people's eyes were dull, standing here without moving, at a loss, Liu Fa frowned, he couldn't care so much at this time, he couldn't retreat, behind him were these unarmed people, his hand clenched the handle of the knife again.
