Chapter 8 Gambling on Life

Half an hour later, Xiao Qi arrived with his war horse.

After another half an hour, the horse Scarface who was ambushed on the traffic arteries around the manor also came back, and sure enough, he also brought back dozens of heads, when the bearded man attacked the manor, these dozens of Jiannu saw the opportunity to climb over the wall and slip away, if Wang Pu hadn't prepared to lay a net around him, these guys would really be a big deal.

Although there are only children and old men in Shengjing City, if Jiannu has taken precautions in advance, and the Hongyi cannons on the head of the city are bombarded with a few shells, Wang Pu, who has more than a thousand families, will almost become cannon fodder, this is not unfounded, Geng Zhongming, Shang Kexi, and Kong Youde also brought the powerful Hongyi cannons to Jiannu after the Qing Dynasty.

Sudara's two upper rooms have now become Wang Pu's general army.

The torches in the line are bright, and Wang Puzheng is discussing with Xiao Qi, Scarface, and Beard.

Wang Pu asked the bearded man: "Bearded, have all the bright posts and secret cards been arranged?" ”

"It's all set up." The bearded man patted his chest and said, "General, don't worry, you can't escape even if you keep a mouse." ”

"Hmm." Wang Pu nodded, pondered for a moment, and then said to Xiao Qi, "Xiao Qi, wait until you go to those people and select dozens of young and strong people, distribute the captured Jiannu weapons to them, and let them protect Zhuangzi by themselves after we leave early tomorrow morning." ”

"Don't take them away?" Xiao Qi said with some reluctance, "As soon as the Jiannu army returns, they will definitely die." ”

"The kindness of a woman!" Wang Pu scolded in a deep voice, "Take them away and they won't die?" If you really want to take them, everyone will die. ”

Xiao Qi was silent.

Wang Pu turned to the bearded man and said, "Bearded, you go and select a hundred strong brothers, let them have a full meal of good wine and meat, and then sleep beautifully, and then wake them up after two hours, let them change into the armor they stripped from Jiannu, and go with me to deceive the Shengjing City Gate before dawn." ”

"Yes."

The bearded man strode away in agreement.

Xiao Qi said: "General, do you want the brothers to pretend to be Jiannu cavalry to deceive the city gate?" ”

"Yes." Wang Pu said, "But there is still one person missing." ”

Scarface asked, "Who?" ”

Wang Pu said: "A person who can understand Manchu and can speak Manchu. ”

"Huh?" Xiao Qi lost his voice and said, "The brothers don't know Manchu, why don't you ask the Han people outside to see who can speak Manchu?" ”

"No need to ask." Wang Pu shook his head and said, "These Han people were locked up in a pen like cattle by Jiannu, how could they learn to speak Manchu." ”

Xiao Qidao: "Then what should I do?" ”

"There's someone who might come in handy." Wang Pu said: "Xiao Qi, bring Zhen Youcai up." ”

Xiao Qi took the order and left, and soon brought Zhen Youcai in like a chicken, and threw Zhen Youcai to the ground when he entered the door, shouting murderously: "General, Zhen Youcai has brought." ”

Wang Pu shouted in a deep voice: "Zhen Youcai, you are so bold!" ”

Zhen Youcai shivered excitedly, and said continuously: "Don't dare, villain doesn't dare." ”

Wang Pu shouted: "Didn't you say that there are only more than 300 Jiannu in the village, and they are all old, weak, sick and disabled? ”

"Yes, yes." Zhen Youcai nodded and said, "There are only more than 300 old, weak, sick and disabled people in the village. ”

"Nonsense." Wang Pu took the case and said sharply, "There are obviously more than 100 Jiannu iron horsemen in the village, and General Ben almost suffered a big loss without knowing the details, saying, why did you lie to General Ben?" ”

"Huh? This ......" Zhen Youcai's face turned pale in an instant, and he said in a trembling voice, "Xiao ...... The villain really doesn't know. ”

"Dare to quibble." Wang Pu shouted, "Come on, drag this guy out and chop it into meat paste to feed the horses!" ”

"Yes!"

Scarface and Xiao Qi agreed violently, and pounced on Zhen Youcai with murderous anger and left, Zhen Youcai was so frightened that he fainted with a scream, a pungent smell of urine spread in the air, Scarface kicked Zhen Youcai's cheek, laughed and scolded: "Hahaha, general, this guy is really useless, I was so scared that I peed my pants." ”

Xiao Qi said: "General, it seems that this kid really doesn't know." ”

Wang Pu said expressionlessly: "Wake him up." ”

Scarface found a basin of cold water and splashed it on Zhen Youcai's face, Zhen Youcai screamed and woke up suddenly: "Don't, don't kill me!" ”

"It's okay if you don't kill you." Wang Pu said, "But you have to tell the truth, do you speak Manchu?" ”

"Yes, a little." Zhen Youcai nodded again and again, "The villain can speak a few words of commonly used Manchu. ”

"Hahaha......"

Wang Pu looked at Xiao Qi, and then at Scarface, and the three of them laughed at the same time.

Zhen Youcai was shocked by the laughter of the three of them, and asked in a loud voice, "The general is smiling...... What to laugh at? Small...... The villain didn't ...... No lying. ”

"It's good that you're not lying." Wang Pu said loudly, "Xiao Qi, take Mr. Zhen down to rest." ”

"Yes."

Xiao Qi suddenly agreed, stepped forward to pick up Zhen Youcai and left, Zhen Youcai hurriedly hugged Xiao Qi's strong arm, and begged for mercy repeatedly: "Will ...... General, you are light...... Lighter, the villain's neck is strangled ......"

When Xiao Qi walked away with Zhen Youcai out of sight, Scarface asked Wang Pudao with some worry: "General, do you plan to let this Zhen Youcai call the door?" ”

Wang Pu nodded and said, "There is no other choice now, only he can speak Manchu." ”

Scarface said: "But we can't understand the Manchu language, if this kid doesn't call the door but reminds the Jiannu who is guarding the city, then we will be finished." ”

"Now I can only gamble." Wang Pu slammed his fist on the table, and said in a deep voice, "If this Zhen Youcai is really a master who is not afraid of death, and is willing to pay for his surname for Jiannu, Lao Tzu will admit it this time!" ”

Scarface listened to this, and couldn't help but sneak a glance at Wang Pu with strange eyes, thinking that the general had really changed, since the last time he fell off the broken shore and was rescued by the brothers, the general was like a different person, and the current general is not only very assertive in trouble, but also ruthless, even he, a bandit from a reckless background, is not as good as sighing to himself.

But then again, Scarface admires Wang Pu's current style of doing things, and Scarface feels that the current general is like a big man, unlike before, just a useless young master.
