Chapter 138: Grass Mustard

"We're still late," Lou Su looked at the other side again, a flash of anger flashing in his eyes.

Song Jiu didn't want to provoke the hatred of Shu and Song, and asked, "What about your logistics?" ”

"We came in a hurry, without logistics."

"In this way, you send a capable subordinate and Ma Zhi to send fifty horsemen to hold my seal, and immediately go to Panshi County, and ask Panshi County to allocate three or four days' worth of grain, grass and related materials, but remember, don't report the current situation to him, otherwise he will not give a grain of grain because he is afraid."

Fifty-one horses left again.

Lou Su also began to order his men to set up camp.

In fact, at this time, the Song army on the opposite bank still had an advantage, although it was a Sichuan cavalry, there were also some cavalry on the opposite side, and the combat effectiveness was slightly above that of the Sichuan cavalry. But Guan Jian is now with two hundred horsemen, at least he can resist for a long time, and Kang Yanze has tens of thousands of surrendered Shu soldiers in his hands, and Puzhou is not far from here, only more than a hundred miles. First there are two hundred, and then what if there are two thousand behind? Do not use two thousand horsemen, for if two thousand infantry come, and occupy the righteousness, your men will not obey their commands.

Zhao Yanjin walked across the wooden bridge again, and he was the most bitter, and neither side was human. Finding Song Jiu, he asked, "Inspector, why did you send so many soldiers over?" ”

"Zhao Tingshi, do you want to rebel?"

"Inspector, don't wronged me," Zhao Yanjin was frightened on both legs, once he put on this hat, it would immediately be a deal to pull out Lu and cut off people's heads.

"If you don't rebel, why do you sit back and watch so many soldiers besiege me here?"

"Isn't that keeping you safe?"

"I came from Jianmen, and I saw some places along the way, and traveled nearly a thousand miles. It's also like this, why do you need so many soldiers to protect it? ”

Zhao Yanjin was speechless.

"Let's be honest. If they don't come, I'll let the villagers flee deep into the mountains. I also ran away. Otherwise, if they kill me, they will also kill you, and they will rebel again, can you afford this consequence? So many people came here, did they save your life, and they came to question me? I don't know what you're doing. ”

"Inspector, I'm also embarrassed, look at Lu Xianggong, it's not the same as me."

"Go back. Don't say anything, don't tell you, I'll send you away, and soon the saint will find out. This case is not something you can manage, and it is not something I can manage, wait for Yizhou to send someone over. ”

"Folding?"

"Can I still make a decision on such a big case?"

"Yes, yes," Zhao Yanjin's face was like ashes, and he made a mistake in Meizhou. When I arrived in Zizhou, I made a mistake again, and my black gauze hat seemed to be unsafe.

Looking at his departing back, Song Jiu suddenly thought of one thing, the court kindly transferred good officials over. However in this case. What is the role of the good officials?

When it got dark, the soldiers began to cook dinner, and the stalemate continued. Each sent someone to patrol, and Gao Qiong was speechless. muttered: "Could it be that this is a war between two countries?" ”

On the third day, there was not much snow. The second day it was clear, the third day it was sunny again, the road was dry again, and the weather was a little warmer. In this era, because of the backwardness of information, the people are relatively less knowledgeable, but they also have their own views of right and wrong.

If it weren't for Song Jiu, the night before yesterday would have been a bloody night for them. They knew how to be grateful, and quietly ran to the upper reaches of the cow water, caught three catfish, and also caught an old turtle weighing more than six catties. This is a beef water specialty, one turtle and two catfish.

Looking at this big turtle, and then at the two catfish, not small, one weighs two catties, and the other weighs four catties, Song Jiuzheng faded out of the bird, and said with great joy: "Xie Lu, thank you, folks." ”

I took it happily.

Song Jiu definitely does not have Zhao Kuangyin's appeal, but his affinity is not inferior. Seeing Song Jiu accept it, more than a dozen villagers left happily. Ge Ba said: "Jiulang, if you are an official, you must be a good official. ”

"Ge Zhuangshi, don't praise me, I'm a lazy character who can't be a good official, it just so happened that you went to the other side of the river for me, they demolished the wine shop, but brought the spices from the wine shop, and also said to Zhao Tingshi, asked him if he had any wine, and hugged me a few jars."

"Okay," said Geba, who ran over to ask for spices and wine.

Zhao Yanjin complied with tears and laughter, and came over with two officials, Song Jiu said: "Brother Ya, it's just right, do the chores for me." ”

began to cook food, Gao Qiong stood on the side and asked suspiciously, "Can you eat it?" ”

Don't talk about turtles, even this catfish is slimy all over, and I don't dare to eat it. Song Jiu said happily: "What do you know, Zizhou catfish is a must in China." ”

He asked the villagers for sauerkraut and began to cook it himself, and it was fragrant for a while.

However, the most important ingredient is missing, chili peppers.

Gao Qiong never dared to eat it, but Zhao Yanjin didn't care, tasted a piece and said, "It's really delicious." ”

"There are still some things missing, chickens, cornstarch, otherwise it's better," Song Jiu shook his head and said as he ate wine. At this moment, there was a commotion on the opposite shore, and a group of people rushed over angrily, two of them could know each other, Song Jiu stood up and greeted him: "I have seen Wang Xianggong, Lu Xianggong, this general is ......"

"It's Wang Quanbin."

"Song Jiu has seen General Wang."

Wang Renzhen took a look at it and complained: "Song Jiu, you almost caused a big mess, but you are still in the mood to eat wine and fish?" ”

"Wang Xianggong, hundreds of lives, if I don't touch it, it will be treated as if it hasn't happened, if I do, how can I not care?" After Song Jiu finished speaking, he looked at Lu Yuqing with his eyes, Lu Yuqing nodded secretly, no need to ask, it was Song Jiu's twist, and Lu Yuqing's nodding also meant that he sent someone to send the fold out of the country. Song Jiu was relieved, and said: "The three nobles came from afar, I don't know anything else, the cooking skills are still okay, try the dishes I make." ”

It happened that a few people came from afar, and they were hungry, Wang Quanbin asked his men to camp and cook, sat down with Wang Renzhen and Lu Yuqing, and asked while eating wine and vegetables: "What's going on?" ”

"General Wang still doesn't know what to do?"

"I know, but I don't believe you can kill all the people under my command."

"General Wang's eyes are as wise as a torch, no."

"What about the rest?"

"I gave the rest of the people money to the owner of the ship and let him take them to the capital."

"Why did you take it to the capital?"

"I made a promise that I would give them a way to survive and that they would surrender before His Majesty. But it can't be said, because the commander of the second battalion was also involved in this case. If I don't tell a small lie, it will immediately cause a mutiny, and the Zizhou rebellion will rise again. General Wang, please forgive one. ”

Wang Quanbin can't be cunning, the facts are in front of him, needless to say, just look at the situation of the confrontation between the two rivers. However, Wang Quanbin still asked angrily: "You can hide them, but why hand them over to the emperor!" ”

"General Gao, that night I said that I was an inspector, what did that head say?" Song Jiu also said angrily. Wang Quanbin is not something he can provoke, and he can't be provoked in Bashu, but seeing all kinds of misery in Bashu, Song Jiu also hated Wang Quanbin to the extreme in his heart.

"He said that you are the little Song Jiu, and said that Lu Xianggong entered Shu and only dared to kill the first colonel Liwei, you killed so many of my subordinates, this time you are in big trouble."

Song Jiu said: "Although I am a little Song Jiu, I am also patrolling Liangchuan on behalf of the Son of Heaven." Even a little head didn't take me seriously, no wonder General Wang asked for guilt as soon as he came. Yes, General Wang, it was I who ordered you to kill dozens of your men, and also sent the prisoners away, and wrote a report to the emperor about the matter. I'm in Bashu, you can watch it. ”

"Song Jiu, you misunderstood what General Wang meant, Bashu is so big, and the forbidden army will disperse together, it is inevitable that there will be some small behaviors. But the real culprits are those who are the first to die, the other soldiers are innocent, and their parents are still waiting for them to return safely. ”

"Wang Xianggong, is Bashu an enemy country now, or is it my Song realm?"

"Whether it's the enemy country or the Song realm, since the fold has been reported to His Majesty, and His Majesty will come down to deal with it, do you still have a confession backup?" Lu Yuqing played a round and secretly made a look.

"Yes."

"Take it out and let General Wang see it."

"Obey," Song Jiu took out the confession from the tent, handed it to Wang Quanbin, and said: "General Wang, I am also afraid of many things all the way, but this matter is really unbearable, if General Wang is here that night, maybe he can order everyone to be killed together." ”

After reading the confession, Wang Quanbin was furious, it was not greedy for money and murder, he himself killed people for money, but at least he had to send someone to investigate. Without inquiring, he sent a group of people over, stood up angrily, and said, "Song Jiu, you come with me." ”

"General Wang......"

"Yu Qing, don't say much, Song Jiu is the envoy of the Son of Heaven, I won't have any ill intentions towards him."

Lu Yuqing had no choice but to be silent, Wang Quanbin took Song Jiu to the other side of the river, and asked, "Who is the commander?" ”

Shi Zhen and another commander walked out, and Wang Quanbin said, "Who let you garrison here?" ”

"We are protecting the patrol and making it safe."

"That's how it's protected!" Wang Quanbin angrily kicked the camp tent by the stone bridge, and suddenly shouted: "Coercing a state to assassinate Shi Tong and leaving the station without authorization is a capital crime." Intending to murder the envoy of the imperial court and committing rebellion, his capital crime is two. For the sake of money, he intended to kill hundreds of innocent people, and his capital crime was three. Come on, drag it down. ”

"General Wang, wronged, wronged."

It was not possible to shout grievances, a few guards walked up, tied the two of them with five flowers, tied their limbs and heads to the hind legs of the war horse, and then got on the horse and patted the horse's back, with two screams, the two commanders were divided by the five horses. Song Jiu almost wanted to vomit on the ground again.

Li Liang was right, Lu Yuqing only killed one colonel, so what is a colonel, refers to the head of the army and the deputy head of the army, at least at the level of Shi Hanqing, can it be the turn of ordinary little commanders and capital heads to say this? Of course, if Song Jiu did not transfer two hundred Sichuan cavalry to be deterred, and sent the captives away in time, the village confessed well, and the two commanders fought hard to kill everyone, Song Jiu died in vain, at most reported a thief to make a rebellion, Song Jiu was killed, and then gave Song Jiu's family a few pensions.

This is an era in which human life is treated like a mustard.

Wang Quanbin walked over with two bloody heads, patted Song Jiu on the back, and asked, "Song Jiu, is it appropriate for Wang to do things like this?" (To be continued......)
