Chapter 139: Bai Fan Asks for Help

Outside the city gate of Changhe Town, Zhao Ergou walked back and forth. His face was slightly decadent, and his eyes were full of anxiety.

Hearing the footsteps, he hurriedly looked over, and then breathed a sigh of relief: "Mayor Jia"

"I don't know what happened here?" Jia Nian saw that Zhao Ergou's face was full of anxiety, so he omitted greetings and asked him directly.

Guo Dapang interjected: "Now you can say it"

"It stands to reason that I shouldn't have come to look for Mayor Jia, but suddenly I could only come to Changhe Town for help" Seeing Jia Nian go straight to the point, Zhao Ergou not only did not get angry, but glanced at it.

Hearing this, Jia Nian's heart began to beat violently, but he didn't show it on his face, but asked quietly: "Asking for help?" Guizhai is strong, how can it be possible to ask for help"

"How dare you deceive this," Zhao Ergou said solemnly.

Then the conversation changed: "Guizhen doesn't know anything, not long ago, a yellow scarf suddenly appeared on the other side of Chaohu Lake. And sent an envoy to blackmail me into Baifan Water Village, and I had no choice but to fight with their swords."

"In view of the lack of troops, I have come to ask Mayor Jia for help," Zhao Ergou said in a sincere tone.

As soon as the words fell, he felt a little inauthentic, so he hurriedly added: "Of course, it is not for your town to contribute in vain, the big boss has said that if you are willing to send troops to help, we can reduce half of your town's taxes next year."

"Half of the tax money" A strange look flashed in Jia Nian's eyes, and then he returned to normal.

Guo Dapang smacked his tongue: "Guizhai is really bold, it actually reduced half of our town's taxes at once, you must know that it is a tax of more than 2,000 people."

After that, Guo Dapang pulled the tone of the last word for a long time.

"You can also choose not to help, these are all up to Mayor Jia's words," Zhao Ergou said.

The anxiety in his eyes gradually weakened, and a pair of eyes stared at the two of them, as if they wanted to discover something in them.

Jia Nian diverted the topic: "As far as I know, isn't the yellow scarf outside Shouchun City?" ”

"Shouchun is the place where our Yangzhou state city is located, where the city is high and deep, how can the yellow turban enter?" Jia Nian said knowingly.

Zhao Ergou's attention was immediately attracted to this topic, and he couldn't help but let out a light sigh: "We don't know how this Gepo Yellow Turban elite came in."

"Before the town decides to rush to Guizhai, can you tell me what the specific strength of this yellow turban is?" Jia Nian asked.

Zhao Ergou nodded: "It should be, it should be ......"

"According to the information we have found in Shuizhai, the strength of this Yellow Turban is about 1,000, including 100 third-order elites and more than 900 second-order soldiers," Zhao Ergou paused slightly when he said this.

Then the conversation changed: "Although there are 800 troops in the water village, there are only 300 of the second-order water thieves, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist."

"Therefore, I ask the village below to send troops to help," Zhao Ergou said slowly.

Hearing this, Guo Dapang and Jia Nian let out a sneer in their hearts at the same time, what a crowd of eight hundred. At the beginning, the white sail water thieves were mirrored, but there were enough eight hundred and ninety-nine people. It seems that Zhao Ergou has something to hide, so it's better to be careful.

Guo Dapang followed Zhao Ergou's words and said, "The village below? Could it be that there are many villages under your village? ”

"Yes, but the scale is not large, and there is not a single militia," Zhao Ergou said here with a little bitterness.

Jia Nian asked: "In other words, this aid is only one of our Changhe Town?" ”

"En," Zhao Ergou replied.

Guo Dapang laughed: "The young man in my Changhe Village is only a hundred, and now although he has become a soldier, he is only a first-order." Even if you add the strength of your Baifan Water Village, I am afraid that it will not be enough to see this yellow scarf."

"Our purpose is to delay time, not to fight the Yellow Turban, as long as we wait for the Taishou to return to help, the crisis will naturally be resolved," Zhao Ergou said embarrassedly.

The laughter was a little louder, and Guo Dapang laughed breathlessly: "Too shou to come back for help? You are counting on reinforcements from Taishou."

"Big fat, don't be rude" Jia Nian saw Zhao Ergou's bitter face, and stopped Guo Da Fat from drinking.

Zhao Ergou coughed dryly: "This matter is indeed a little difficult to talk about, but it is not inflexible."

"As long as we work together and Mayor Jia is in front, we will definitely be mutually beneficial," Zhao Ergou said pointedly.

Jia Nian immediately understood, this was to use his identity. But when I think about it, something is wrong.

The village chief sheltered by Baifan Water Village is not just his own family, is there any more far-reaching intention in this? .

Seeing Jia Nian pondering, Zhao Ergou urged: "The military situation is urgent, please also ask Mayor Jia to give a quick reply, and I will go back to resume my life."

"Please go back and inform the boss of Guizhai, this town will go to the aid as soon as possible," Jia Nian said here and paused slightly.

Then the conversation changed: "It's just that this matter is important, and there are still some sundries in my Changhe Town that need to be dealt with one by one." After these things are settled, how about going to Guizhai? ”

"Please also ask Mayor Jia to give a specific time" Zhao Ergou hesitated slightly, and did not let Jia Nian be vague.

Jia Nian smiled, it seems that this Zhao Ergou is also cautious enough: "How about tomorrow morning at the latest?" ”

"Okay, we'll make up our minds" Zhao Ergou didn't wait for Jia Nian to react, and hurriedly decided on this matter.

Then he turned around and walked to the front, turned over and pulled the reins: "I will wait for the soldiers of Guizhen in the water village, and ask Mayor Jia not to delay the time, causing a bad misunderstanding."

"We will definitely not delay time" Jia Nian said in a firm tone, he didn't know why, he always felt that there was a deep meaning in Zhao Ergou's words.

Zhao Ergou was determined in his heart, and hugged his fist at Jia Nian on horseback: "Farewell"

"Walk slowly" Jia Nian and Guo Dapang returned the salute.

Zhao Ergou pulled the reins, and the war horse neighed and galloped forward.

Looking at the back of Zhao Ergou leaving, Guo Da pouted: "Half of the tax is reduced?" They really think of themselves as the court."

"Let's not say a word, the most important thing for us now is to brush up on the favor of the white sail thief, don't lose the big because of the small," Jia Nian prompted.

Guo Dapang sighed deliberately: "Then how many troops do you plan to send to help?" ”

"I don't know" Jia Nian replied honestly: "We still need to sum it up"

Hearing Jia Nian's words, Guo Dapang touched his chin: "Total"

"Do you have an opinion?" Jia Nian said casually.

Guo Dapang shook his head: "Don't dare, I don't dare to have an opinion"

"Will you stay behind this time or will you join me in helping the White Sail Thieves?" Jia Nian asked.

Guo Dapang replied without thinking: "Of course it's help, you must know that I am a Taoist master, have you ever seen a Taoist who is afraid of yellow scarves?" ”

"It's as if you're not afraid," Jia Nian looked at Guo Da Fat and said slightly, "You're not afraid that Tong Da Mei will run away?" ”

Guo Dapang glared at Jia Nian fiercely: "Which pot is not opened, which pot is not mentioned, Tong Damei said that she likes big heroes who stand up to the sky." If I go with you, won't I become a hero? ”

The sentence "How wit-witted" completely exposed Guo Dapang's sinister face.
