(Ask for collection)

Li Xian rode back on a big black horse, and Xiong Kuohai and the others came out of the woods and returned with him. Li Xian smiled and said to Xiong Kuohai: "The world-famous Chai Shao, his fist and foot kung fu are really average. ”

Xiong Kuohai said seriously: "There is no vanity under the fame, Chai Shao is so famous, so he must have real skills, maybe ...... What he's good at isn't in fist and foot kung fu. ”

Li Xian was stunned, he didn't expect Xiong Kuohai to say such a thing, he nodded and said solemnly: "Do you want to tell me that this thing is too rash?" ”

Xiong Kuohai didn't want to hide his thoughts, he was a person with a straight surname, and because he respected Li Xian, he said bluntly:

"General, I think if you can get a good relationship, you won't accumulate evil hatred, Chai Shao is a person who is young and famous, and he is born in a family and is arrogant, but the general said that if he wants to make a big deal, such a person should make friends, and he can't say that he can use it later. This person's performance today does not look like a little idiot as rumored, but you have to know which of their children has gone through what hardships? They all have real talents and real learning in their stomachs, but because they are used to being arrogant and arrogant, they rarely face up to people other than the children of the family. ”

"Just like Han Shixu, if he leads the troops for a longer time and experiences more battles, he may not lose to Wu Benlang General Chen Ling and Ma Yu Wenshi. In terms of talent, Ma Yu is not as good as Han Shixu, but he can win in battle, is it not because he has experienced war in Liaodong? ”

"This Chai Shao is the same, today he lost to the general in terms of temperament and strategy, but it doesn't mean that he has no real skills, not to mention...... Is his wife still from the Li family in Longyou? Tang Guogong Li Yuan seems to have been reused by the confused emperor this year, and it should not be difficult for the Li family to rise again in the future, such a person, I don't think the general needs to offend for no reason. ”

Let Xiong Kuohai say such a thing, Li Xian was quite surprised. He thought that he had made good use of people, but now he realized that he didn't know his subordinates thoroughly.

"Thank you!"

Li Xian sincerely clenched his fists and said: "Listening to your words is better than reading for ten years." ”

Xiong Kuohai's face turned red, and he said a little embarrassedly: "My subordinates just don't understand why the general doesn't look down on that Chai Shao." ”

Li Xian didn't plan to explain anything to Xiong Kuohai, after all, what he knew was far from happening, and it was a bit unbelievable to say it, even if Xiong Kuohai would believe Li Xian, he wouldn't say it. As for Chai Shao's actions today, Li Xian knew that he was indeed hasty, but his surname was like this, he looked down on a person who couldn't even protect his own woman at a crisis and fled alone, and he said that he couldn't raise any respect even if he broke the sky. It is true that what Xiong Kuohai said is not wrong, if you want to achieve great things, you can't act arbitrarily, don't offend the people you should befriend, who knows if there will be a place to get people in the future?

may be because he knew about the affairs between Aunt Red Buddha and that negative man Li Jing since he was a child, so he looked down on such a man Li Xian. And because of the memory of his previous life, he knew that Princess Li Huining of Pingyang was a heroine among women, and it was inevitable that he would despise Chai Shao even more when the two were compared, and it would become a matter of course to beat Chai Shao.

Li Xian sincerely thanked Xiong Kuohai, not because he realized how ridiculous and boring he was to beat Chai Shao, but because he knew that Xiong Kuohai was really thinking about himself. With such subordinates, Li Xian couldn't help but feel that it was a very happy thing.

After returning from Liaodong, he thought that he knew the vast sea, but now he knows how superficial he is.

"I'll pay attention to it later."

He said to Xiong Kuohai: "As for why he doesn't look down on Chai Shao and has to beat him, it's because he has no respect for Qingqing. ”

Xiong Kuohai was stunned for a moment, and then nodded and said, "That should indeed be fought!" ”

When he returned to the lake, the spy who happened to go to Liuxian County had already returned, and he was waiting for Li Xian to return by the lake, and after seeing Xiong Kuohai and others surrounding Li Xian, the spy hurriedly greeted him, hugged his fists and saluted, and said: "General! There's news! ”

"Oh? Good or bad? ”

When he said this, Li Xian thought of the dead fish that had been shot through the belly, and he panicked for no reason. It's just that his face hasn't changed in the slightest, and he still looks calm.

The spy replied very well: "It's good, but it's also a little bad." ”

"It's good, because the secret spies from the south of Yishui have returned, and they brought back the wife and a pair of children of Zhu Yishi, the head of the Zhu family, and the second gear head has completed the general's arrangement, as for the not very good news, according to the secret spies who came back, the second gear head did not return the same way in order to avoid Long Tingwei's pursuit after Zhu Yishi, so he temporarily lost contact."

Li Xian frowned slightly and asked, "You go and find the secret spy who came back from Jiangdu, I want to ask in person." ”

A little bad?

He sighed in his heart, this time there is no news, it is really no news, he has departed from the original route, and the secret spy has no idea which way Ye Huaichong and the others have taken, it is not a little bad news. involved Wen Yao's Long Tingwei, maybe Ye Huaisleeve is really in big trouble this time.

……

……

Ye Huaichong hasn't encountered any major trouble for the time being, but he has encountered something that is not big but makes people feel very troublesome. It's a contradiction to say, but that's what it is. Because of the blockade of Long Tingwei and the official messenger, they did not cross the river from the Yishui ferry, and planned to follow the Yishui all the way west to find the fishing boat and hire a boat to cross the river, but they didn't even see a boat after walking out for twenty miles.

Liu Heimin asked Ye Huaisleeve what to do, Ye Huaisleeve thought for a while and said: "Let's continue to walk forward, even if we can't meet the boatman, if there is a shallow place, let's wade directly into the water." The people of the imperial court on the other side of the bridge will not withdraw so quickly, if we really can't find another way to cross the river, let's go back and wait, and wait for the people of the imperial court to withdraw before leaving. ”

Liu Heimin sighed: "It can't be said that the government has issued an order, and the boats along the coast are forbidden to go out of the boat." ”

Zhu Yishi interjected: "Actually, it's not that troublesome......"

He looked at Ye Huaisleeve and said, "Find a shallow place, let's cut down trees and build a raft to hold it over, walk back and forth a few more times, and people and horses can pass." ”

Liu Heimin was stunned, patted his head and said, "Why didn't I think of this method?" ”

Ye Huaisleeve smiled, turned around and walked to the side to rest.

It's just that after half a day, everyone's mood is not as relaxed as before. Liu Heimin looked at Zhu Yishi and glared angrily, and Zhu Yishi smiled wryly to show his innocence.

"You came up with this idea, and now you say you can't build a raft?!"

Liu Heimin said angrily.

Zhu Yishi explained solemnly: "I can build a Yellow Dragon Clipper that can carry 100 people, a five-tooth boat that can carry more than 1,000 soldiers, and a dragon boat as magnificent as a palace, but this raft ...... I really won't make ......."

At the same time, in a dense forest on the other side of the river, only a dozen miles away from them, one of his subordinates helped Xu Blind to re-bandage his wound, and then poured the liquor in his skin bag on the wound on his arm to rinse it, and the pain that pierced his heart immediately made him grin.

"Those damn court eagle dogs, why are their noses so sensitive!"

He cursed under his breath, then tore off his clothes to wrap around the wound. Blind Xu took the strip of cloth in his hand, then took out the wound medicine given to him by Liu Heimin from his arms and poured some of it, and sighed while helping his subordinates bandage it: "What I encountered this time is a little different, those officials and soldiers wearing brocade clothes are not like the officials in Jiangdu Mansion, if it is expected, it should be the guards in the palace." I heard that there was a team called Long Tingwei in the Dog Emperor's forbidden palace guards, well-trained, and they were all murderous and unblinking. ”

He glanced at it, and now there were only four men under him, and they were tired from even escaping, and their expressions were a little gloomy, and after crossing the river, they were overtaken by the court's pursuers with falcons and mastiffs, and after a fight, they broke a few more hands. Now there were only five of them, and all of them were wounded.

"Those bastards with mastiffs and flying eagles, as soon as we go out, they will find us, what should we do, Brother Xu?"

Xu Blind thought for a while and said: "Let's rest here for the night first, let's go west tomorrow morning, try to get rid of those bastards and then take the road to the north, we can't go back to Jiangdu, and Zhu Yishi, we can only go back to Wagang first." Erbao, don't go with us tomorrow, you cross the river and go back, back to Jiangdu, the brothers in the casino are still waiting, after you go back, let the brothers withdraw to Wagangzhai, and the money must be brought! That money was saved by us for the addition of armor and weapons in the stockade, and it can't be cheaply given to the imperial eagle dogs! ”

"Don't worry, the people of the imperial court are chasing us, and there should be no danger for you to go back to Jiangdu."

The man named Erbao worried: "I'm not afraid of danger, I'm just worried about you, Brother Xu." Those court eagle dogs are too powerful, if I leave, your manpower will be even thinner! ”

Xu Blind patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, it's a big deal that the brothers will go separately, so they can't find the direction to chase them!" ”

After another half a day, until the head drooped westward, Zhu Yishi, Liu Heimin and others wiped the sweat on their foreheads, looked at each other, and then smirked. Especially Zhu Yishi, looking at the crooked raft that was finally tied up, his face was full of pride, as if he was more proud of building a raft than building a dragon boat.

"Luckily, the river isn't wide!"

Jia'er pouted and said, "Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to sit on this raft you have built." ”

Zhu Yishi patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, Miss Jia'er, even if the raft breaks, it won't drown you, with me, don't say it's this water, even if you fall into the East China Sea, it doesn't matter." ”

Jia'er glanced at him and said, "What, don't you want to go with us?" ”

Zhu Yishi smiled self-deprecatingly: "My wife and children are all in your hands, and I can't go back home." I also want to open it, since the court does not allow me, since my own brothers can turn against each other for money, what else can I not let go? I have to live well, live and take back everything that belongs to me! ”

Liu Heimin patted him on the shoulder vigorously and said, "That's right if you think so!" Husband, what can't you let go of and think about? Those turtle grandsons bastards let them live happily for a while, and then I will accompany you back to Jiangdu in the future, and slaughter all those beasts who have lost their conscience one by one. ”

Zhu Yishi was stunned, and said after a while of silence: "I didn't want to kill Xiaochang, I just wanted to ask him face to face why he did this." ”

Liu Heimin sighed, but he didn't know how to persuade him.

After they rested for the night, they pushed the raft into the water early the next morning and tried it, and when they saw that it could really be used, everyone couldn't help but cheer, even a woman like Ye Huaisleeve couldn't help but laugh.

Everyone crossed the river in batches, and it took a full hour to reach the other side, looking at the useless raft Zhu Yishi actually felt a little sad: "Just stay here, in case someone can use it in the future, it will be considered that we have done a good deed." ”

He was looking at the raft when suddenly there was a barking of dogs from the woods not far from the riverbank.

A goshawk hovered over the forest, with a shrill cry from time to time.

Ye Huaisleeve's face changed and said: "Quick, go back to the south bank!" ”
