Section 26 - War

"Please!"

Although he was puzzled, out of courtesy, Li Xiaobai still returned the salute to show politeness. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"The boss has an order to collect as many animals and vehicles as possible to transport grain and grass for the army, and this ox cart ......"

Team Zheng's speech stopped abruptly and looked at Li Xiaobai quietly.

Li Xiaobai thought that the officer was interested in the package on the ox cart, but he didn't expect that he was going to collect the ox cart, he shook his head with a smile and said, "This shouldn't ask me, it should ask him!"

With a finger of his hand, everyone looked at the same place.

But not far away, an old man was glared at by the sergeants, and he trembled with fright, and fell to the ground like a five-body throw, shouting loudly: "The military master spares his life!"

Yes, it's the tune again!

The old man didn't look like a horse bandit from a distance, and tiptoed back, but he didn't expect Li Xiaobai to point at him directly, attracting the attention of dozens of military masters.

As a small people, where have I seen this kind of battle, I was panicked and knelt down directly.

The cavalry team was also a reasonable man, turned over and dismounted, ran straight over, helped the old man who was driving the car up, and said in a loud voice: "Old man, please get up! We are not gangsters." ”

Seeing Li Xiaobai shaking his head before, his heart tightened, but he didn't expect that he had guessed wrong, and when he saw this old man, he immediately understood that this ox cart was not the young man's, but the old man in front of him.

"Master Jun, I'm not a horse bandit!"

The old man still refused to get up, for fear that he would be treated as a horse bandit and chop off his head with a knife, and become the silver money for these military masters to ask for merit and receive rewards.

In order to ease the old man's heart, the team had no choice but to say: "This official does not treat you as a horse bandit! Don't be afraid, old man!"

"Really?"

"Seriously!"

After receiving the assurance, the suspicious old man finally got up from the ground, straightened his waist, patted the dust on his body, and seemed to complain: "I said it earlier! I scared the little old man to death!"

"......" team is a man.

When this old man was young, he was probably also a living treasure.

"Old man, this official has been ordered by his boss to requisition the power animals and carts, can you go with me to transport grain and grass in this ox cart? ”

To avoid scaring the old man again, the team is explaining the intention one by one.

"But, but this old cow and cart are my lifeblood for the little old man!"

The old man who drove the car looked reluctant, he and his son tenant more than a dozen acres of thin land of a large family for a living, and relied on the ox cart to earn a little money to supplement the family on weekdays, if it was requisitioned by the army, the family was afraid that it would be lost immediately, and even the cultivated land would become difficult.

"I bought this bullock cart. ”

However, at this time, Li Xiaobai walked over, holding a few heavy silver ingots in his hand, which made the old man in the car look straight on the spot.

The old cow shook his ears and continued to drag the car behind him unhurriedly, so that the wheels of the car fell into the rut marks on the road.

Although the wheel is not easy to turn, it is the most economical.

On the road, there are not traces of ruts that stretch for miles, or ox carts or horse-drawn carts are tacitly rolled on the same two lines, pressed out day after day.

The ox cart was followed by nearly fifty cavalrymen, and it always looked a little strange.

The old man who drove the car held thirty pieces of silver and went home happily, and now the person in charge of driving the car was replaced by Ding Zhi, the team of this cavalry.

In just two or three sentences, he became familiar with the young white-clothed boy on the ox cart, the Li family Xiaolang from Xiyan Town.

"Li Gongzi, thank you for your help this time. ”

Team D was a little ashamed, the order from above was hasty, the temporary receipt of silver money was only enough for their team to eat and chew, not enough to redeem the power animals and carts, and forcibly requisitioned and could not be started, he originally planned to find some landlords and rich households to make a fortune, and gather the money and silver for redemption, but he did not expect that this young man surnamed Li took the initiative to donate generously and helped.

"Money is something outside the body, and if it is bad, use it. ”

Squatting in the haystack, Li Xiaobai, who was lazily leaning on the side of the car, kicked the package on the side of his feet, and there was a crisp sound from inside, like this, the package that could stuff five or six people's heads, there were nine in the car.

The two horse bandits gained a lot of money, but in the end, they fell short, and all of them were cheaper.

"Really, don't coax me!"

Team D couldn't believe his ears, he heard that every horse bandit who plundered Xiyan Town had robbed a lot of money, and looking at the few packages behind him, I was afraid that it was a heart-warming windfall.

Even so, Ding Zhi was still unmoved, he was a soldier of Dawu, not one of those horse bandits who had no conscience.

What's more, it is still ill-gotten gains, if you move an undeserved mind, sooner or later it will be turned out, and the knife on the neck is inevitable.

"The Coaxing Ding team has gold and silver to obtain?"

Li Xiaobai laughed and broke through the other party's concerns.

"No! Childe still has to post the money upside down!hahaha!"

Team D was stunned for a moment, then laughed, and touched all over his body, except for his mount, war horse, armor and weapons, he couldn't even take out ten taels of silver.

He couldn't help touching the back of his head, and then said, "What means did Childe use to kill those two horse bandits, it seems that they used poison?"

"Those two horse bandits have a hidden illness, what do they have to do with me!"

Li Xiaobai once again sacrificed the hidden disease and said that he had completely left himself alone.

Anyone knows that this is clearly talking nonsense with their eyes open, but Team Ding Zheng regarded this as a unique habit of strange people, and then laughed: "That's right, the hidden disease is attacking!

The sergeants around him all covered their mouths and snickered.

Poisoning is the onset of a hidden disease, a head is off, a hidden disease occurs, and being shot into a hedgehog by an arrow is still a hidden disease.

This hidden disease is inevitably too vicious, not only will it kill you, but you will also lose your arms, legs, and heads.

"Aren't the nearby horse bandits about to be swept away? Why do you want to temporarily recruit power animals and carts?"

Li Xiaobai suddenly became puzzled, Xiyan Town was recovered by Zhechong Mansion, and the remnants of the old knife and other bandits were killed and scattered and fled, and it was difficult to become a climate again, if they could escape back to the Gobi Desert, it would be considered thankful, where would they dare to provoke the officials and soldiers again.

These sergeants were everywhere recruiting power animals and vehicles of all kinds, and there were clear signs of a major operation.

Team Ding was stunned, then reacted, and said with a smile: "You and I are the soldiers from Xiyan Town, for those horse bandits?"

"Isn't it?"

This time it's Li Xiaobai's turn, could it be that these cavalry are from other places?

"Of course not! Although we are government soldiers, we are serious border troops!" Team Ding shook his head and said: "The horse bandits are just a plague of moss, and their demise is imminent, and we are collecting power animals and carts because the Rong people are going south to knock on the pass!"

"Rongren?" Li Xiaobai's eyes widened.

The border with the northern border of the Dawu Dynasty is the Fengxuan Kingdom ruled by the Rong people, and the southward movement of the Rong people does not mean that the two countries are about to enter a state of war, and a protracted national war is about to break out.

I'll go there, there are horse bandits on the front foot, and a foreign army on the border, and this day can't be passed?

Team Ding, who was rushing forward, nodded with a serious expression and said: "It is the army of Fengxuan Kingdom, the old knife leader led the bandits to break through the black wind outlet, maybe it was because of the actions of the Rong people, or even the instructions of the Rong people at all, hmph, these Rong dogs, want to come and pick up the cheap! If Gongzi wants to go to Broken Leaf City recently, it is best to change the route to avoid accidents, the Rong people are not as easy to deal with as horse bandits." ”

A wave has not settled, and another wave has risen.

The front foot dispersed thousands of rampant horse bandits, and the Rong army of the Feng Xuan Kingdom approached the border with bad intentions on the back foot, and the northern border of the Dawu Dynasty was about to enter an eventful autumn.

Li Xiaobai gradually frowned, according to the original plan, he planned to first find a way to rescue the little lady of the martial arts family who was kidnapped by the widow of Tofu Shih Tzu Jiao, and then find the eldest brother Qingmo and Li Qing one by one, so as to revive the family business in Xiyan Town.

If you want to save Wu Xiangqun, you must first find the Royal Secret Division, since it has the name of the royal family, most of the nest is in the imperial capital Tianjing.

After leaving Xiyan Town, Li Xiaobai's first stop was Shattered Leaf City, and then he planned to find a caravan to go to Tianjing to accompany him.

However, the news brought by Team D shrouded his itinerary with a bit of variables, and even the officers and soldiers did not dare to guarantee the safety of the road, and the situation was bound to be very grim.

"The Rong people are much more powerful than those horse bandits, not only are they strong in martial arts, they come and go like the wind, and even some of them can spell, which is extremely difficult, ordinary border troops and government teams meet them, often dead and lifeless, in the past and Feng Xuanguo war, our grain and grass baggage is always because of these rangers and heavy losses, so that the army is powerless, in vain missed opportunities, and I don't know how many innocent people because of their encounters and tragic extermination, we came out this time not only to recruit power animals and carts, but also to clear the killing of Rong people's rangers by the way, horse bandits are just incidental......”

Team D is talking about the strength of the Rong people's rangers, dissuading Li Xiaobai from traveling at this juncture, and it is best to turn around and return to Xiyan Town, until the imperial army forces back the provocation of Feng Xuanguo.

Li Xiaobai suddenly said: "Team Ding, is there a shortage of people in the border army now?"

"Lacking! Why is there no shortage? Especially the lack of strange people like Li Gongzi, huh? What does Gongzi mean?"

Team Ding shook the big whip in his hand, and turned his head to look at Li Xiaobai with a surprised face.

"Are you recruiting temporary workers there? Well, that's what it means to recruit people!"

Anyway, the road ahead is not smooth in the near future, Li Xiaobai is thinking of finding an opportunity to brush up on the experience points, in case one day he faces the Royal Secret Division, at least there is some reliance, at least not the one in white, let the other party rub and pinch the round.

As for the snake girl Qing Yao who is used as a killer in the Shu brocade money bag on her waist, she is just a little snake demon who is not even a big demon in the True Dan Realm, bullying and bullying the little monster and making amends, I don't expect her to be able to run rampant at all, if she insists on filling the faΓ§ade, I am afraid that she will be re-taught to be a human being by those warlocks in minutes.

Li Xiaobai is still self-aware of this.
