Volume 1: The Tenth Chapter of the Old Dream of Dingtao: Yellow Sparrow (II) Revised Edition
"Boss, have you sent your brother to Xiliang City alone recently?"
"Xiliang City? If you go, can you not let you know? Why do you ask?"
"The letter said that there was a caravan from Xiliang City that it was attacked by people who looked like horse thieves."
"A man who looks like a horse thief?" Xin Ye's brows suddenly relaxed
"What a coincidence."
"What do you mean, Boss?"
"Mu Yuan, they should come again in the near future, these days ask the brothers to set up sentry posts along the way, and once they see someone entering the desert at night, report to me immediately."
"Are we going to ambush them?"
"No, we're going to pretend to go into Lanxiang City to rob money."
"What if we bump into Mu Yuan and them halfway?"
"According to my inference, the purpose of their trip is to find out the truth and find out our numbers and strongholds, they should have heard about the incident in Xiliang City, and they will definitely strengthen the vigilance in the city. So not only will they not bump into us, but they will let us into town. ”
"Let us into town? Can we beat the city guards? ”
When Xin Ye heard what Taozi said, he raised his eyebrows, smiled and said nothing, and Taozi was confused.
Lan Xiang City
This Mu Yuan and He Ming discussed in the tent to prepare for the next few days, take advantage of the fine weather, and then bring a few agile soldiers as an advance team to go to the last stronghold to investigate, find an opportunity to blend into the cave, and find out the number of horse thieves and the structure of the cave. Then the remaining Mu family army was on standby at the north city gate, and once they saw the signal of action, they went to the sandstone wall.
The two of them were completely ignorant of the guards outside the tent, Gu Bu, and quickly changed into civilian clothes while the guard was changing, and ran out of the camp on horseback and drove towards the city.
"Shaodong, someone from the barracks is here."
"Who?"
"It's the soldier you took care of last time, Gu Bu."
"He? It must be Mu Yuan's side that there is a move, call in. ”
Gu Bu entered Wang Dong's study, some broken hair was stuck to his face with sweat, and he felt a little itchy, Gu Bu wiped his face with his sleeve, and then saluted Wang Dong respectfully.
Wang Dong hurriedly returned the salute, invited Gu Bu to take a seat, and instructed the servants
"Brother Gu has been tired all the way, so don't hurry up and show Brother Gu tea."
Gu Bulian said, "Young owner, be polite and polite", and he was a little apprehensive in his heart. It is a big crime to reveal the military situation privately, but, but the young owner is also to avenge his younger brother, and maybe he can help the general. Again... The young owner has made a generous move, which is his salary for several years.
"Brother Gu, but there's news?"
"Shaodongjia, General Mu has discussed with Commander He, and three days later, he will take the advance team to the horse thief's lair at night, and the rest of the soldiers will be on standby at the north city gate, and they will set off to annihilate the horse thief in one fell swoop after waiting for the order."
"Thank you, Brother Gu!"
"But Shaodong, since the general has already sent troops, why should Shaodongjia go there in person."
"It's really difficult for Brother Gu, Wang Dong also knows that Brother Gu took a big risk to tell me this information. But Brother Gu also knows that my brother Wang Chu and I grew up together since childhood, and my father was mostly out of business in his early years, and he was at home all year round. In the days when my father was not around, although I was taught by my mother and aunt, I was too fat after all, and I followed me when I first learned words and practiced martial arts. My father has a young son, and I and my two sons, Chu'er, although we are not the same mother, but we are like siblings.
This time, Chu'er was killed, and I was heartbroken with grief, I shouldn't have let Chu'er go out of the city with the caravan. I should have persuaded him, or, if I wanted to represent the caravan, I should have gone to protect him. I was the one who should have died in the desert, and I was the one who hurt the first child. You say this revenge, how can I not take revenge! If you can't take the head of the horse thief to pay tribute to the first child, then the first child is under the nine springs, how can you cross the Nai He Bridge with peace of mind! ”
Gu Bu saw that Wang Dong was quite excited, his left hand clenched into a fist, and he kept pounding the tea case. The dignified seven-foot man, his eyes were red at this time, and his expression was sad. Gu Bu was a little unbearable, and persuaded him
"Shaodong, please mourn and change, don't hurt your body, Shaodong has to avenge Brother Ling. The villain also has a younger brother in the family, and if he is murdered, the villain will definitely fight to take revenge. If the young owner can slash the enemy this time, the villain can be regarded as doing a good deed. ”
"Yes, yes, Brother Gu is the benefactor of my young owner."
"It's just... The young owner will meet with the general at that time, but don't push the villain out."
"Please rest assured, Brother Gu, I, Wang Dong, am by no means the villain who has broken his promise. Brother Gu has done the younger brother such a big favor this time, this little care, please accept it. ”
As he spoke, Wang Dong took a heavy brocade silk purse from the servant and stuffed it into Gu Bu's arms. Gu Bu felt a sinking in his arms, opened his purse slightly and glanced inside, and quickly fastened it and put it in his clothes.
"The young owner is really polite, and this is the map that the villain drew according to the memory of going to investigate with the general that night, and drew a fork This is where the horse thief is. However, if you go out of the city by then, there are other things that need the villain's help, although you say it bluntly. ”
"Brother Gu doesn't bother with this matter, Wang Dong has his own arrangements."
Gu Bu heard this, since Wang Dong only needed to inform him of General Mu's actions by himself, he didn't need to ask about the rest. Now that it was some time before he left the barracks, Gu Bu was worried that others would be suspicious, so he got up and said goodbye.
Sending Gu Bu away, Wang Dong scattered left and right, leaving only one cronies,
"Are you ready?"
"It is ready, and all the brothers have been clothed in that way."
"Did the tailor handle it?"
"I have given him a lot of money, sealed his mouth, and asked him to return to his hometown to retire, and he must not set foot in Lanxiang City again. The villain followed him all the way to the East Canal in Xizhou, and saw him get on the boat in the direction of Shuzhou. ”
"Good. Remember, at this time, you must not publicize it, not even your father. ”
"That's natural, the villain knows how powerful it is, only your cronies know about this trip, and others haven't heard the news at all."
Wang Dong nodded, and ordered his subordinates to arrange to go down, and three days later, as soon as it was night, they would find out of the city, enter the desert north of the city before Mu Yuan, and go straight to the horse thief's lair, and slash the enemy.
He Mu Yuan is grinding, and I, Wang Dong, just want to use him and kill all these dog thieves. I'm going to cut off the heads of these dog thieves and sacrifice them before the first child's spiritual seat!"
