The hotel is too small and there are not many guests. Xu Liang and more than a dozen people almost occupied three or four tables, and Sun Wu walked in with seven or eight personal soldiers, and it was difficult not to see Xu Liang and others.

The northwest region has been dry for many years, and there is no harvest in the field. Many honest farmers have developed a second side business, which is hunting. The fur of the prey can be exchanged for money, or you can keep it for your own clothes, and the meat of the prey is even more delicious, and the good hunters are still very popular on the northwest ground.

Sun Wu saw more than a dozen hunters in the store, and he didn't pay much attention at first. Now Sun Wu's identity has long been different, Sun Wu is now a leading general under the Heavenly Dragon, and his subordinates are also in charge of one or two thousand people, and there are dozens of personal soldiers who protect him.

"Heh, brother-in-law, business is pretty good today." Sun Wu said and laughed, walked in with the shopkeeper, picked a table to sit on, and warmly beckoned a few pro-soldiers to sit casually, and urged the shopkeeper to serve wine and food.

Taking advantage of the time between the dishes, Sun Wu began to look at Xu Liang and the others next to him.

Xu Liang and the others came in from Sun Wu, and they have been sitting quietly on the table and eating. He never looked at Sun Wu and the others indiscriminately, the purpose was to avoid the attention of Sun Wu and the others.

However, Xu Liang and the others didn't look at Sun Wu, but Sun Wuyi's thief's eyes turned around, turned to Xu Liang, grinned, and asked, "Hey, a few hunters, how is the harvest?" Did you catch a wild goat? Bison, wild boar also become. General Ben hadn't eaten game for days. ”

Sun Wu asked, if Xu Liang didn't answer, it would arouse his suspicions, so Xu Liang squeezed out a little smile on his face. said embarrassedly: "This military master, we are all hunters in the village near Hutou Pass. There's been a war over there these days, and we've been forced to do nothing. I wanted to try my luck here, but I just arrived at the treasure land and had not yet gone up the mountain, so I honored the military master with no prey. ”

Xu Liang said in a panic, Sun Wu was very satisfied when he heard that this person was so good. He pointed to this hotel and said to Xu Liang: "Little brother, you remember, this hotel was opened by a relative of the general's family, and I hunted good things in the mountains in the future." Remember to put a leg in this shop, so that General Ben can try it. ”

Xu Liang nodded again and again, and said with a huff: "Don't worry, the little one remembers." ”

Sun Wu was very satisfied, and the soldiers next to him also joined in, pointing at Xu Liang and saying to Sun Wu: "Master, this kid is quite upright." ”

Sun Wu was proud, and the young hunter in front of him was still angry with him, so he pushed away a stool corner. He beckoned to Xu Liang and said, "Come, little brother, General Ben appreciates you very much, come and have a few drinks with General Ben." ”

Sun Wu's tone was full of command.

Xu Liang felt unhappy in his heart. He shook his head and said, "No, thank you for your appreciation, we are full." It's time to go into the mountains, and the family in the village is still waiting for us to hunt the prey and go back to the pot. ”

Sun Wu listened. Haha smiled, but didn't care too much. waved his hand. At this time, the shopkeeper brought two jars of wine up, and Sun Wu's own hands began to pour wine for King Sun.

At this time, Xu Liang and the others had already picked up their things, and with a slight arch of their hands towards Sun Wu, they got up and left the table and walked towards the outside of the hotel.

Sun Wu took a sip of wine, and suddenly heard the soldier next to him snort loudly: "The spear in that man's hand is good, the body of the spear is black, but the tip of the spear is glowing with cold light. ”

Sun Wu despised this pro-soldier in his heart, and said in his heart that this kid was too uninformed. Ordinary Orion's weapons, no matter how good they are, how good can they be?

Another soldier chimed in: "What a good gun." ”

Sun Wu raised his head and looked out. At this time, most of Xu Liang and others had already walked outside the store. King Sun's gaze was fixed on one of the Orions, who had previously seemed to be next to the Orion who had answered. What King Sun looked at was an ink-colored spear that the man was holding in his hand.

Sun Wu suddenly felt that the spear in this person's hand was somewhat familiar. He recalled carefully for a while, and suddenly his face changed, and he got up and shouted at Xu Liang and the others: "Stop!" ”

Xu Liang and the others were stunned, Xu Liang glanced at Luo Rucai and nodded.

I saw Luo Rucai roar lightly, turned around suddenly, and the ink-colored spear was like a black dragon, heading straight for Sun Wumian's door. The Tsing Yi guard, who had not yet left the store, snorted lightly, drew his knife and shot out in unison, killing several soldiers who were sitting on the table in shock.

Sun Wuwolf bèi, narrowly dodged the spear that suddenly stabbed, his face was scratched by the chill of the spear, he took a few steps back, went around to the back of the table, and broke out in a cold sweat in his heart, and screamed in a trembling voice: "You are Luo Rucai?!" ”

Luo Rucai sighed lightly, "I wish you hadn't recognized me." ”

At this time, the surrounding pro-soldiers had been put down by four or five, and the miserable snort woke up the stunned pro-soldiers, and several people gathered around Sun Wu, clenched the weapons in their hands, and timidly looked at the approaching Tsing Yi guard.

King Sun immediately knelt on the ground and wept bitterly: "The second general spares his life!" ”

Luo Rucai sighed and shook his head, "It's late." ”

After a pillar of incense, Xu Liang and the others came out of the hotel, each of them brought some dry food, dried meat and other things. Xu Liang glanced back at the hotel and nodded at the Tsing Yi guards.

Two Tsing Yi guards stepped forward, took out a fire breaker and ignited the dead grass, and threw it into the stack of firewood outside the hotel, and after a while, the fire flooded the entire restaurant.

Before the fire expanded, Xu Liang and the others left the avenue, picked up the trail and walked, all the way to the north.

The further north they went, the more intensive the checkpoints they encountered, and after Xu Liang and the others avoided the danger, they finally came to the foot of Wudu Mountain. Along the foot of Wudu Mountain, all the way to the north, is the only road leading to Fengxiang Mansion.

In the past, this was the grain route of the Ming army, but now at a glance, it looks like a large battalion of the rebel army. Hundreds of tents were built along the hill at the foot of the mountain. The checkpoint in the middle of the avenue is also the tightest, with three layers of rejection of deer and horses, hundreds of soldiers are checking, and the people passing by are almost even turned out of their underwear.

Xu Liang and Luo Rucai were lying on the lawn not far away, silently watching the checkpoint at the foot of Wudu Mountain, checking personnel, releasing people and other work. Both of them looked up so that their necks were sore, and they couldn't help but be a little discouraged.

Luo Rucai sighed and said: "My lord, the generals of the rebel army here are not straw bales, and they have done a good job of defending the city and intercepting them. The last general carefully counted for a long time, and found that there were no guards who were busy in the past. In this way, if we want to get in, I'm afraid it won't work. ”

Xu Liang was also very frustrated, thinking about it, he couldn't think of any good way for a while, and couldn't help but scold: Which bastard is this stationed in Wudu Mountain? The level actually has three layers, which is really a waste of resources.

In the rebel barracks outside the north gate of Hutou Pass, Zhu Zijian, the king of Shunyi, who was frowning and looking at the reply letter in his hand, suddenly sneezed for no reason. Rub the tip of your nose a few times, and secretly say Who is talking about this king?

Since yesterday overnight, several truckloads of herbs were sent to Hutou Pass, and Zhu Zijian, the king of Shunyi, and the generals in the camp watched as a few people fell down with ropes on the city tower, packed those few herbs, and hung them up again. Then there was a long wait, and a room of people waited until the sun set the next day, but they couldn't wait for the reply of He Huchen in Hutou Pass.

Just when Zhu Zijian felt that he had been deceived, he was furious and prepared to send troops to attack Hutou Pass early tomorrow morning. However, perhaps the Ming army felt the murderous aura of the rebel army early in the morning, and there was another drum on the city tower, and three arrows fell from the city tower.

What Zhu Zijian was holding in his hand was one of them.

In the reply letter, Mr. He was still polite, and he wrote half of the text just to thank King Shunyi for his benevolence and righteousness. At the end of the reply, He Huchen wrote an understatement, saying that after the herbs thrown by the king of Shunyi, a large part of the Ming army agreed to surrender to the rebel army, but there were still a few veterans in the army who regarded integrity as life and did not agree to surrender. He Zongbing said, give him another three days, when the three days are up, even if the Ming army does not surrender, I, He Huchen, will open the door of Hutou Pass!

Zhu Zijian was silent when he heard this. Military advisor Gao Zilin looked solemn and said, "Three days, another three days." ”

At this moment, a soldier rushed in and said to Zhu Zijian and the military advisor Gao Zilin: "Your Excellency, the king of Daliang in the north sent a message that a hotel on the side of the road was burned, and seven or eight rebel soldiers died in it,"

Zhu Zijian heard this, and hurriedly said: "Quickly call General Huang back, this king has something important to explain to him." (To be continued......)
