Chapter 693: Secret Scheme
Shenguanling, located in the south of the central part of Shicheng County, on the left wing of Luomeng Mountain. Although Duan Yiming promised him to send grain from Shicheng County when he negotiated with Gao Chong, in fact, he obviously did not act like this. These are also within Yue Shaoan's expectations, so naturally he will not hold on to this matter. Although this sudden change in the grain transportation route made Jin Mao scramble, it did not cause irreparable consequences.
Jin Mao, Hong Meng, Zhang Chusan, and the three of them finally arrived at Shenguanling with a few personal guards for half a day. As soon as you enter the ridge, it is a flat land, divided into two roads, one leads to the Shenguan Ridge, and the other is the main road that bypasses the Shenguan Ridge. The trail is a little harder, but it's closer. Although the road is not dangerous, it is a flat river within a radius of fifty miles, which is not suitable for the team to hide the traces, and from that side, you have to go south to Rao Dao Ningfu, and you can't go directly to the jurisdiction of Song Shicheng out of Dali, and you have to go through a section of the territory of the Great Song Dynasty to reach Song Shicheng instead.
Jin Mao had already learned about the two-jump road before he came, so he concluded that the grain transport team would definitely not take this road.
The three of them rode up and went straight to the depths of the Shenguan Ridge, and when they came to the leader, the winding and rugged road that could only pass through a cart appeared in front of them.
Jin Mao looked left and right and saw that most of the roads here were dirt and sand and gravel, and the brigade of people and horses would inevitably leave traces when they walked by. This made him not have a headache, from the previous actions of the grain transport team, he judged that the other party's grain transport manager was a cautious person, if he found the footprints of the brigade, then, he would definitely not march here. For a while, Jin Mao was very worried, thinking that there would be no more twists and turns in this matter, but he didn't expect that this light rain would make everything difficult again.
Looking at the steep Shenguan Ridge, Jin Mao stopped. Hong Meng also saw his concerns, and couldn't help but lower his head as well, revealing a thoughtful look. Still heartless people live happily, the honest Zhang Chusan has no worries, seeing that Shen Guanling is more than the green mountains when he occupied the mountain, he couldn't help but get excited, and when he looked back, the two of them stopped, so he pulled his throat and said, "Hey, why don't you two leave?" ”
Jin Mao, who was thinking hard about countermeasures, didn't bother to pay attention to him, Hong Meng glanced at him, and said, "We're here to check the terrain, and we're not here to play in the mountains and rivers, what are you calling?" ”
"How?" Zhang Chusan's bull's eyes widened, and he said, "You can't go up to check the terrain to check it, can you see a fart standing here?" ”
You can see the fart, that's a god...... Hong Meng muttered in a low voice, and he had the intention to argue with him for a few words, but after thinking about it, he couldn't help but say nothing. At this moment, suddenly a piece of gravel flew straight down from a high place on the side, "Whoosh! The sound of the metal collision between the stone and the helmet came from afar, echoing in the mountains for a few moments, and then disappeared......
Zhang Chusan raised his head suddenly, only to see a child crawling a few feet above his head, haha happy, another stone was thrown down, but this time it came straight to Zhang Chusan. Zhang Chu's three hands waved the stone open, and scolded angrily: "The wild cub from there, come here, go up and cut him down for Lao Tzu......"
Jin Mao was meditating hard, and was smashed down by this stone, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Slow! ”
Zhang Chusan can not be the main general of Jin Mao, it is because he is old, but the entourage is very clear about the ranks, and when they heard Jin Mao's words, they hurriedly stopped.
Zhang Chusan was a little dissatisfied and said, "Lao Jin, what do you mean by this?" ”
"General Zhang, this son can't be killed."
"Why?" Zhang Chusan glared and said, "Lao Tzu hasn't killed anyone, how can he be reckless when he is young?" Even if you don't kill him, you have to teach him a good lesson, otherwise this kid won't and pee on people's heads next time he encounters someone? ”
"That's what I want, this is a wonderful use......"
"Clever use of a bird...... Zhang Chusan shook his arms and said with a big grin: "As the main general, I was smashed in the head by a child." How can there be brilliance on the face of the brother? If you go on like this, you don't know if someone will take your head one day......"
Zhang Chusan's words were a bit excessive, if it was a weekday, Hong Meng would have already stood up and gagged him. However, at the moment, Hong Meng himself felt that Jin Mao was doing a bit of a, so he didn't open his mouth to dissuade him.
Jin Mao listened to Zhang Chusan's foul language, and he was not angry, but just smiled softly, and said: "General Zhang is not angry, after getting this battle, the younger brother will give you a few jars of good wine?" ”
"Is that true?" Lifting the wine, Zhang Chusan's complexion softened.
Long before Jin Mao received the order and planned to come here, he already knew about the personalities of Zhang Chusan and Hong Meng. He also knew that he had no qualifications in Song Shicheng, and he wanted these two fierce generals to listen to his orders, but it was not enough to rely on a military talisman given by Yue Shao'an, maybe Hong Meng could still listen to him unconvinced. But this General Zhang is a well-known fierce man in the army, and he only listens to Yue Shao'an's words in Song Shicheng, and among the generals below, Zhang Heng and Niu Ren, who have followed Yue Shao'an from the low level to climb all the way, can control him. As for the others, it didn't move him at all.
Therefore, he put a lot of effort into Zhang Chusan's body, knowing that Zhang Chusan was a good wine, and before leaving, he made people buy a few jars of good wine, and when he first came, he gave Zhang Chusanyi an altar, and a few jars have been placed there, planning to take them out at the right time, and they will be used today.
calmed down Zhang Chusan's emotions. Jin Mao hurriedly took out a talisman from his arms, turned around and handed it to the guard, and said: "You hurry back and tell Liu Wencai that he will only bring less than 3,000 to come, and each person will have enough rations for three days, and all the baggage and horses will be left, and he will find a hidden place nearby to set up camp, led by Kong Bing." ”
"Yes!" The guards agreed, solemnly took the talisman and left quickly.
After explaining this, Jin Mao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, General Zhang, let's go up and see that naughty boy!" ”
"What's so good, Lao Tzu went up and cut him!" Zhang Chu Sanyi urged the war horse under him to gallop away.
Jin Mao hurriedly chased after him and said, "General Zhang, Brother Zhang, don't get angry when you see that naughty boy later, it's a little brother begging you......"
"That has a bird meaning, looking at him is still angry, Lao Tzu is not going, you can go!"
"Then how can it be done, you better go." Jin Mao comforted.
"If you don't go, you won't go, it's not a war, and there's nothing to ......
"Good!" Jin Mao simply agreed, and said, "Then please ask General Zhang to stay here, and General Hong and I will go to ......" After that, he beckoned to Hong Meng, and the two of them got off their horses and climbed straight up, without looking back again.
Zhang Chusan was stunned there, touched his bald head, and had a feeling of being deceived. Hong Meng on this side had already laughed, and said to Jin Mao while climbing: "The general is teasing Lao Zhang like this, and he will react later, I'm afraid he will ask you for two more jars of wine." ”
Jin Mao smiled bitterly and said: "I can't suppress General Zhang's temper, if you don't provoke him, how can he stay down honestly, if you really let him go up, that naughty boy won't let him kill." I can't please me, and my plan will not be carried out......"
"What are the general's plans? Do you want to be informed? Hong Meng heard him say this, but he was a little curious in his heart, and couldn't help but ask.
Jin Mao smiled mysteriously and said: "This is just a small trick, it is a hidden word, if you say it, it will not be good." General Hong and let the younger brother sell a pass, I promise, within two days, the general will definitely know. ”
"Okay!" Hong Meng smiled helplessly, and the two of them climbed up with two guards while talking. It is more than three zhang high from the ground, and it is a very flat place, about dozens of square meters, and next to it is a thatched hut, which seems to be the residence of the hunters for hunting. There was a teenage boy standing on the side, who heard the sound of Jin Mao and several people climbing, and turned his head to look at them.
The urchin didn't seem to be very afraid of the living, and when he saw a few people walking towards him, he was the first to open his mouth and ask, "Have you come up to take revenge?" But let's say it first, when I beat you just now, you were wearing a hat, and you have to give me that hat before you can call it back. ”
Jin Mao shook his head, a gentle smile appeared on his face, and said, "Little brother, you misunderstood. I was very comfortable with your stone just now, and my part-time job was so comfortable, I came up to thank you...... Are you alone here? ”
"My dad went hunting, and I'm the only one left in the house." The naughty boy touched his head and said, "My father often scolds me for being stupid, I think you are more stupid than me, so is it more comfortable to be hit by a stone?" ”
"There are a lot of stupid people in this world, but many people don't know that they are stupid. If you don't believe it, the next time someone comes to you and tries again, there must be something even more stupid, and you pull on his head, and he will be even happier. No, I'm so happy to be smashed today, you can take this! Jin Mao said, placing a piece of gold in the urchin's hand.
The urchin put the gold in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully for a long time, and asked in surprise, "What is this?" ”
Jin Mao was stunned for a moment, took out another ingot of silver, and said, "Then you should always know this, right?" ”
"Such a big chunk?" The urchin was taken aback.
"When will your father come back?" Jin Mao asked slowly.
"It's three or five days at the least, or seven or eight days at the most, and I don't know when I'll be back." The naughty boy touched the silver and couldn't put it down, and replied subconsciously.
Jin Mao nodded and said, "Okay, thank you, I should leave too." In two days' time, my friend may be passing by again, he is much more stupid than me...... Hey hey ......"
"Uh-huh, got it...... Would he have given such a large piece of silver? ”
"It depends on what you're throwing down...... Jin Mao's voice faded away.
By the time the naughty boy reacted, Jin Mao had already disappeared, and the naughty boy ran happily towards the house, and when he ran to the door, there was no one at home, and he couldn't help but look dark, and carried a few stones to the side. But at this moment, there was no one at the bottom of the mountain, and the stone could only hit the ground, and after throwing a few pieces, he lost interest, sat down on the ground stupidly, and played with the silver in his hand again......
