Chapter 148: Prepare to meet the enemy

Wu Tong hurriedly said again: "Return to the priest ......"

"Shut up." Chu Qin interrupted him and said, "I didn't ask you, you are a master bookkeeper, and you always have to speak on behalf of the county order, what are your intentions?" ”

Wu Tong shrunk his neck, and Chu Qin said, "Go down." ”

Wu Tong glanced at Zhao Kuo, bowed down and responded: "Retire from your humble position." ”

Zhao Kuo's face turned pale, Chu Qin looked at him, until he began to break out in a cold sweat, and then said: "I repeat, this seat is not here to check on you, but just to check on the disappearance of Rizhao Guan's winter clothes, this seat asks you, are there mountain bandits in Tiger Roaring Mountain?" ”

Zhao Kuo swallowed dry foam and replied, "No." ”

Chu Qin said: "The county order of Lingxun County was killed, and the blood was written on the wall, wasn't it done by the mountain bandits?" ”

Zhao Kuo said in a panic: "From the priest, the matter of Lingxun County, I really don't know about it. ”

Chu Qin looked at him and said, "This seat has said it twice, and I didn't come to check on you, but if you hide something, once you are found out by this seat, do you want to know what the consequences will be?" ”

Zhao Kuo subconsciously raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, and said: "Back to the priest, there are indeed mountain bandits in Tiger Roaring Mountain, and they are extremely fierce, and they dare not provoke them because of their humble duties, but they think that no matter how fierce this group of mountain bandits is, they will not dare to rob the convoy escorted by the official army." ”

Chu Qin asked, "What kind of fierce method, let's hear it." ”

Without Wu Tong present, Zhao Kuo didn't know how to make up nonsense, so he could only tell everything Gu Du had done, but he definitely couldn't say that they shared the silver.

Chu Qin asked, "How much does Guo Youfu's family property have?" ”

Zhao Kuo replied: "They were all looted by Gu Shi." ”

Chu Qin asked, "The house has also been moved?" I heard that he also has a Zhuangzi called Qionghuazhuang, right? ”

Zhao Kuo's cold sweat broke out again, and the hand he raised trembled a little.

Chu Qin said: "Before this seat came, I had already sent someone to investigate, your master Wu Tong, went back and forth to Tiger Roaring Mountain for three consecutive months, why?" ”

Zhao Kuo began to tremble all over, and Chu Qin said, "I just want to know how much silver this Gu Shi has taken." ”

Zhao Kuo's voice trembled and replied, "Plus the extortion of salt merchants, more than three million taels." ”

Chu Qin stood up and walked out, he came to ask Zhao Kuo, just to confirm that this figure was consistent with his speculation, three million taels, enough to raise an army of 10,000 people, but Gu Du would definitely not raise 10,000 people, too many people are troublesome, whether it is hidden or transferred, it is inconvenient.

Chu Qin felt that three to five thousand people were suitable.

In fact, after the Spirit Emperor withdrew from the army, Chu Qin felt that Gu Du would come to the territory of the Spirit Kingdom to station troops and wait for an opportunity to make trouble, but there has been no major movement, so Chu Qin didn't tell anyone that the team escorting winter clothes disappeared so completely this time, Chu Qin immediately decided that Gu Du did it.

Cha Xiu asked, "From the priest, are you going to Rizhao Pass to transfer troops?" ”

Chu Qin replied: "No need, Gu Du ran away after transferring troops, and besides, you and I don't have the right to transfer troops, these two thousand soldiers are enough." ”

Cha Xiu frowned and said, "If it's really Gu Du, how many soldiers will he have?" He had three million taels of silver. ”

Chu Qin replied: "If you recruit, he is showing people as a mountain bandit, even if someone defects to him, there will not be many, besides, bandits and ordinary people who have not been trained and do not practice battle formations will not be able to deal with the escorted army at all, he must be a soldier transferred from Zeguo, so it will not be too much, after all, it is to infiltrate the territory of our country, I guess, it is only three thousand." ”

Cha Xiu asked, "This Zhao Kuo doesn't care?" ”

Chu Qin replied: "The affairs of Lingzhen County are investigated and dealt with by the Department of Civil Affairs and the Department of Military Affairs, and you and I can only deal with Gu Du and Lixia." ”

Cha Xiu frowned, and Chu Qin said again: "Gu Du alone got three million taels, so much silver, Zhao Kuo can't swallow it alone, and Qin Huo, the commander of the garrison, won't be innocent, first sweep away Tiger Roaring Mountain, and Lingzhen County's affairs will be easy to do." ”

Wu Tong rode alone, ran to the foot of Tiger Roaring Mountain, and then ran up the mountain with a sigh of relief, and was seen by the people patrolling the mountain and stopped him.

Wu Tong said breathlessly: "Hurry up...... Show me...... See the big boss...... Imperial...... Someone from the Imperial City has arrived. ”

The mountain patrol asked, "Who is here?" ”

Wu Tong replied, "From the priests...... Chu Qin...... He also brought a lot of soldiers. ”

Someone ran back to the camp first to report to Gu Du, Gu Du was a little surprised, he didn't expect the first thing to attract Chu Qin, it seems that Chu Qin, like Dongfang Xuan, had long thought that he would come to Lingguo to make trouble.

Gu Du pondered, he couldn't run away as soon as he heard Chu Qin's name, Chu Qin couldn't be his nightmare, not to mention that now he was the uncle of the country, if he still ran away as soon as he heard Chu Qin's name, the army's morale would be chaotic, and his prestige would be reduced.

What's more, the Spirit Emperor is also a Great Imperial Soul Master, and if he wants to slash the Spirit Emperor, Gu Du also has to cultivate and temper again, so he has to face Chu Qin.

Gu Du said: "Pass the order, prepare to meet the enemy, and order the sentinel to investigate in the two directions of Lingzhen County and Rizhao Pass." ”

Feng Jiu went out to give the order in response, and Gu Du said to Dongfang Xia Lan again: "You hide from Mo Xuan, if you ......"

"I don't hide." Dongfang Xia Lan interrupted him and said firmly: "I will help you, my martial arts skills are no worse than Master's." ”

Gu Du frowned, this is also true, if you only talk about martial arts, maybe Dongfang Xia Lan will be slightly better than Li Xia, and said: "Yanzi, give Xia Lan the soft scale armor, you hide from Mo Xuan." ”

Gongsun Yan responded: "Yes." ”

Dongfang Xia Lan grabbed Gongsun Yan and said, "Let's go, I'll explain to Mo Xuan." ”

Not long after, Wu Tong was brought in, knelt down in front of Gu Du and begged: "Big boss, save the villain's life, the villain is willing to follow the big boss to the death!" ”

Gu Du looked at him and asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Wu Tong said: "From the priest, the matter of dividing the silver can not be hidden, all the things are handled by the villain, whoever does not die The villain has to die, ask the big boss to accept the villain, give the villain a way to live." ”

Gu Du asked, "Do you have a family?" ”

Wu Tong replied: "My parents died early, I have no wife and no children, and I am alone. The villain, in order to get rich and rich, was afraid of being dragged down, so he did not marry a wife and have children. ”

Gu Du smiled slightly, this Wu Tong is not only smart and knowledgeable about current affairs, but also good at calculation, and asked: "Speaking of the official army is about to come to encircle and suppress, you vote for me at this time, aren't you afraid that I will be defeated?" ”

Wu Tong replied: "Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, the big boss is wise and brave, and has his own fundraising, as long as the big boss does not let the villain carry a knife into battle, the villain will not worry about his life." ”

Gu Du said again: "You have no relatives, no reason, no concern, and I can't contain you." ”

Wu Tong replied: "The villain has no way out, the villain only wants to live, and it is easy for the big boss to kill the villain." ”

Gu Du said: "You stay first, and then I'll talk about it after I finish this battle." ”
