Chapter 192: The Crisis of the Grass Team
From this day onwards, your salary will be four taels of silver per month. ”
Li Hongru asked Zhang Guozi and learned about his income in Tongxuanguan, and he also responded to the other party's income.
"So, I'm going to pay off thirty months' debt?" Zhang Guozi said with a headache.
"It's only two and a half years" Qin Huairen said with a smile: "If you do something wrong, you have to bear the consequences, which is better than imprisoning you for ten years!" ”
"Okay!"
Zhang Guozi lowered his head, thought about it again in his head, and finally responded.
Although he had the intention of using him, he had also deceived the other party before.
These people are already very kind.
He shivered and got dressed, and tidied up again.
When he saw that all the donkeys and horses were ready to go on the road, he took out a piece of donkey skin as thin as paper from his coat pocket.
Zhang Guozi blew on the donkey skin, only to see that the donkey skin suddenly swelled.
In just a second or two, the donkey's skin turned into a living little donkey.
Li Hongru felt that this little donkey was a bit like the one next to the Taoist temple, but these stupid ones looked about the same, and he couldn't tell them with the naked eye.
"The Dao method is really wonderful!"
Pei Nie sighed, if he didn't major in swordsmanship, he would really have a little bit of a mind to learn Confucianism and Taoism.
Datang did not shy away from the content of literati and warriors integrating Taoism, and he thought it would be good to turn into a little donkey.
The main reason is that Zhang Guozi's donkey is too convenient, not only can he run fast, but he can also jump over the wall, which is better than a demon horse.
"My donkey can only be used for transportation, and I can't do anything else."
Listening to everyone's discussion, Zhang Guozi reluctantly interjected a few words.
"If someone pokes a sword in it, it will be beaten back into its original form and transformed into a donkey's skin again."
"This donkey is not bad, my paper donkey will always draw my strength when it is running, and it is difficult to do long-distance running."
As soon as he mentioned the flaws in the spell, everyone's interest suddenly plummeted.
The donkey is really a hard worker, and even if it is supernatural, it is difficult to do great things.
The little donkey can be used as a means of transportation, but riding this kind of donkey cannot cut people, and it is easy to kill the owner.
The crowd rode bad horses and donkeys and walked through the wind and snow.
It's not lonely to run all the way.
Zhang Guozi also slowly understood the two waves of people in this team.
One wave is the son of the family headed by Qin Huairen, and this passerby wants to get ahead and do something practical.
One wave is the Jianghu Division led by Li Hongru, and these two people are somewhat passive in this operation.
The two waves of people went from barely matching to having no problems with each other, and they experienced a lot of hardships.
In the end, it was Li Hongru and others who survived, and more than 20 people of the Khanate plundering regiment were wiped out.
"Good kill!"
knocked on the side to get some answers, and Zhang Guozi couldn't help clapping his hands.
He had no resistance to working in the Jianghu Division.
Not to mention going to the front line to kill the enemy, if he can really do something, he is still very willing to do it and will do his part.
Only when everyone contributes can the world be reversed, so that the industrious can have income, and the poor can have enough to eat.
Zhang Guozi also wanted to see what Bingzhou City looked like.
After taking so many people's rations, did the Bingzhou legion disappoint the people of Bingzhou as the people imagined, guarding the frontier and fighting against the khanate.
"On this snowy day, I don't know how many people in Bingzhou are hungry."
Zhang Guozi looked at the gray sky and the small snowflakes that fell from time to time.
At this time, the ground was covered with finger-deep snow, and the journey was a little difficult.
His little donkey was not afraid of the snow, but it was a little inconvenient for ordinary animals to travel, so he had to ride and make some changes.
or running, or riding, everyone kept moving away from Yingcheng, and also kept getting closer to Bingzhou City.
But the farther north you go, the wind and snow get more and more intense.
The dry food on the shoulders of the people was sufficient, and although the journey was difficult, they could barely survive.
On the twelfth day, everyone looked at the city of Bingzhou in the snow.
At this time, there were vehicles entering and exiting the state, and there were also guards who kept retrieving before releasing them.
Grain, horses, chariots, travelers, merchants, requisitioned persons......
Under the city gates, there was a long queue.
The city walls of Bingzhou are very old, there is not half a piece of new bricks, and there are faint traces of swords on the wall, and there are also black traces of oil and other things.
Zhang Guozi looked at the nearly fifty-meter-high wide city wall and felt relieved for the first time.
He rode a little donkey and followed behind everyone, and when Qin Huairen told him about the situation one by one, and Li Hongru corrected him, everyone entered Bingzhou City in order.
"Brother Hongru, let's go out for a long time, I'm afraid that there are a bunch of people waiting for your yamen."
Qin Huairen clenched his fist at Li Hongru, and when he first entered the city, he obviously saw the surprised eyes of the city gate guards looking at Li Hongru, and he wanted to stop talking a little.
"It's been a bit long, indeed."
Li Hongru nodded.
This trip has been going for almost a month.
The average imperial department could not tolerate such a long period of neglect by the authorities.
Jianghu Division is no exception.
This probably encountered some people in the rivers and lakes, Li Dan and Wang Dali were difficult to parry, but they were afraid that there would be some small turmoil.
"Let's go! Let's also go to Brother Hongru's Jianghu Division to have a look! ”
Qin Huairen shouted, this is to help Li Hongru.
Everyone was tired from the journey, and they didn't go down to find a place to rest at this time, and they urged their mounts one after another.
The combination of a bad horse and a donkey is a bit weird, but they're also a formidable team.
Everyone rode up, and they also kept running to the mansion of the Jianghu Division.
In the wind and snow, there were still people squatting outside the Jianghu Division, and some people were also watching the Jianghu Division from afar.
The door of the Jianghu Division was closed, as if no one was there.
When the crowd arrived, some people immediately got up and looked up.
Li Hongru walked to the door and looked at the footprints on the door.
The wooden door was partially mutilated and repaired.
The door of the Jianghu Division was probably kicked in.
He knocked on it.
"My adults are out on a cruise, please be patient!"
Wang Dali's voice was a little nervous and a little lazy from the mansion.
"Wang Dali, open the door!"
Li Hongru replied.
In the past few days when the Jianghu Division has been closed, it seems that Wang Dali has been frightened.
It is not a problem for a warrior to step upstairs, and it is not a problem to jump into the Jianghu Division.
Although the gate is closed, it is only a symbolic meaning for the people of the rivers and lakes, and if you want to enter, you can always climb into the wall.
"I'm a grandpa, you're finally back, you don't know how hard I've been these days......"
Hearing Li Hongru's voice, Wang Dali's voice suddenly became louder, and the footsteps approached.
There was a sound of the deadbolt, and the door suddenly opened, revealing Wang Dali.
Li Hongru looked at some of the remaining bruises on Wang Dali's face, and felt that Wang Dali might indeed be suffering.
"You don't know how to go to the Hexi Martial Arts Hall to hide," Li Hongru asked.
"There are more people over there, and it has almost become a gathering place for these Jianghu people, so I won't go over there."
Wang Dali said a word, which can be regarded as explaining the reason why he stayed in the Jianghu Division.
He looked outside, only to see some figures running around, knowing that the gang was coming over again.
"There are a few heroes who have killed the people of the plundering group, and many people are waiting to see the title of the Jianghu Division."
Wang Dali said the last sentence, Li Hongru finally understood some reasons.
"The new Lord Thorn Shi has some dissatisfaction with the Jianghu Division, and wants to ban our department, but the governor does not agree, so he keeps it for the time being, and this news is known to a group of Jianghu people, and they all want to see what our Jianghu Division does."
When Wang Dali added another sentence, Li Hongru's head became bigger.
If the new assassin does not agree, without the cooperation and publicity of various departments, the title issued by the Jianghu Division will not be so loud, and it will even be difficult to spread to all parts of the state.
In this way, this temporary grass head team is of little significance.
Li Hongru glanced at Zhang Guozi.
This is a newcomer, and he is also a person in the rivers and lakes, Li Hongru also wants to learn some magic from the other party.
If the Jianghu Division is gone, he can't help but feel a little pity.
This trip has a lot of gains, but because the time of going out is too long, people from the rivers and lakes gather, or provoke some children of the family to come to the state to make a name.
This is likely to trigger a new stab in the history of the ill.
