Chapter Seventy-Three: Blatant

The Zhou family never dreamed that the other party would dare to invade in such a big way, and they didn't take Jiangling Mansion in their eyes at all. What is the situation when the other party has such a large team? Could it be that the Master's Mansion is really not good? During the southern expedition, the master's mansion was wiped out in the battle of Qingshuihe, and the Zhang family's men and horses were unscathed. It should be like this, what does the Master's Mansion take to deal with it, no wonder the third young master is so blatant.

What should I do? There are only 70,000 men, women, and children in his city, and most of them are women, children, and the elderly. There are only four or five thousand people who really have combat effectiveness, and if they really want to fight, the city will not be able to defend it. The envoys of the Zhou family constantly traveled back and forth between the military camps in the city and outside the city, and kept telling Zhong Shan that he had sent people to contact the three young masters.

"Lord Zhong, you can't do this, we are connected with the third young master, and we are all a family. For so many years, we in Xiangnan have gotten along with you like brothers. I hope that the adults will take the lead of the brothers to go back for the sake of the three young masters! ”

"Go back? Lao Tzu came here from afar, and the brothers broke their legs, so you let me go back with a word. You're something. ”

"My lord misunderstood, my lord is mighty, lend me a hundred and a thousand guts, and I don't dare to let my lord go back. It's just that I ask the adults to see the face of the three young masters and let us go this time. Whatever your lord commands, we will do. ”

"Hehe, you're interesting. Then send me 30,000 male slaves and 30,000 female slaves, and I may consider letting you go." Don't mention the three young masters to me, this is Lao Tzu wants to come out for a walk, and it has nothing to do with the three young masters. ”

"Sixty thousand? My lord, where did we get so much? Your Excellency, you know, our Xiangnan leaders and men have all gone to the battlefield, and none of them have been able to come back. The rest are children except for the elderly. Where are the 30,000 male slaves? Please also forgive me and be tolerant. ”

"What a poor cry! Do you think Lao Tzu is easy to deceive, the skinny dog still has three catties of meat. If you don't agree, tomorrow I will ask people to go to the city to find it themselves, don't be ashamed. ”

Shouts and cries came one after another, and messengers ran back and forth inside and outside the city. The morning sun had risen, illuminating the barracks outside the city. The imaginary siege did not take place, and the soldiers of the battalion were leisurely preparing breakfast. Zhong Shan didn't spend a single soldier, so he waited for 10,000 male slaves and 30,000 female slaves sent by the Zhou family, as well as 10,000 quintals of grain and jewelry for Zhong Shan.

The head of the Zhou family nodded and said: "Thank you for your understanding, my master said, in the future, the three young masters and adults will come to Jiangling, our family is willing to be the internal response, and it is our blessing to be able to serve the three young masters and adults." ”

"Although it is reluctant, but for the sake of the family, I will spare you this time. I don't want to stay here anymore, poor ghost, it's not interesting to stay. Have fun, brothers, for two days, and we'll be back. ”

Lingwu had been sweating for Xiangnancheng, and had been locking Zhongshan's team, seeing that a battle with a disparity in strength was about to be staged, and Xiangnancheng would inevitably be ruined. But things turned out completely unexpectedly, there was no battle at all, and slaves and belongings were automatically sent. Especially when he heard that the Zhou family agreed to be the other party's internal response, Lingwu couldn't wait to break the Zhou family's traitors into pieces. If all the leaders are like this with the Zhou family, how can they be the lord of the house, it is better to roll up and leave as soon as possible. The throat of this wind must be cut and it must not be allowed to spread.

He immediately told Lin Yun and Wei Qingsong what happened in Xiangnan City. When the two of them heard this, they were immediately furious, and Lin Yun said: "As soon as Boss Zhou died, all the people of the Zhou family became cowards. has done such a traitor to seek glory, where can he still have the face to live in the world. Master rest assured, General Wei and I will definitely make Zhong Shan and the people of the Zhou family pay a terrible price. Please also ask the master to tell us the enemy situation at any time, we have already figured out a way to clean up these things. ”

Wei Qingsong was the most angry, and broke a big tree on the side of the road with a punch, and scolded in his mouth: "The children of the Zhou family, greedy for life and afraid of death, want to betray the master's mansion, and don't look at what they are." You can't fucking beat him, and you're going to do it desperately, even if you die, you're not a samurai. Lao Tzu has to cut you one by one this time. ”

But he said that Zhong Shan had indeed been a free race immortal in the past few days, and the Zhou family was really miserable. More than 30,000 soldiers were almost happy before they set off from the camp. Drove the 40,000 slaves of Xiangnan, escorted a lot of food, and slowly went east, marching less than one-third of the speed when he came. When I came, I walked day and night, but now I swaggered all the way, marching during the day, camping at night and being happy, where is there still vigilance when I came.

On this day, Zhongshan had returned from Xiangnan City for eight days, and came to a place fifty miles away from the border of Changzhou and more than three hundred miles from the border of Xingshan. This is the junction of the three collars, close to the perfume river, with abundant water and grass, high trees and dense forests. Zhong Shan was also born in the army, but he was also cautious, seeing that it was getting late, he thought that he should find a safe place to camp early. In fact, I was thinking about the dozen or so female slaves selected by my subordinates last night, all of them were as beautiful as flowers, with rich breasts and fat buttocks, and they worked hard until the second half of the night, and in the end they only put down eight. Thinking of the remaining delicate appearances, Zhong Shan's heart itched like a small worm.

"The trees in front are high and dense, and it is easy for people to sneak up on camping there. It's getting dark, so let's go down, we'll spend the night here tonight. The terrain here is open, and there are many of us, so let's rest well, and we will cross the woods in front of us at dawn tomorrow. You guys, get something delicious, why is Lao Tzu hungry so early today? ”

"Hehe, my lord, you've been working too hard these days. If you work hard at night and during the day, you must be hungry fast. I'm afraid I don't have any strength tonight, right? One of his samurai joked in a strange way.

"Lack of energy? You don't have the fucking strength. Lao Tzu is an iron King Kong, with inexhaustible strength, see how I let those beauties lie down and beg for mercy tonight. ”

It was late at night, and only some of the tents where the noble warriors lived in the camp were lit with torches, and the slaves and soldiers who had marched hard had already fallen asleep. Only the screams of slave girls were heard from time to time in the tents of the nobles, and no one took this to heart, everyone was used to such a scene. The soldiers on guard have already been snoring, and for many days, where is the shadow of the enemy?
