Chapter 15 Invitation to Join
Hearing this, Lin Haotian couldn't help frowning, and looked at the crowd with displeasure on his face.
The person who spoke was about thirty years old, and looking at his appearance, with a long face and a high nose, colorful eyebrows, and a face like white jade, he didn't look like a robber at first glance, but more like a scholar, and he looked out of place among the robbers.
Without waiting for Lin Haotian to speak, Zhu Ming first asked with an unkind face, "Peng Qian, what do you want to do?"
Peng Qian was the first group of people to follow Zhu Ming and fall into the grass, and he was good at wisdom, and he was usually mainly responsible for giving advice to him. Zhu Ming's ability to occupy a place in Guigu Mountain can be said to be entirely due to Peng Qian's contributions, without Peng Qian, there would be no Zhu Ming today.
Peng Qian waved his hand at Zhu Ming, signaling that he had something to say, and then, he stepped out of the crowd, walked straight to Lin Haotian, and asked, "I don't know where the little brother is going?"
I didn't expect the other party to be so polite, Lin Haotian also followed his example, arched his hand, and replied: "Wancheng." ”
"Haha-" Hearing this, Peng Qian couldn't help but let out a loud voice.
"What are you laughing at?" Lin Haotian took a step forward, his eyes were cold, and he stared directly at Peng Qian.
"With the current situation of the little brother, I am afraid that he will already starve to death on the road before he leaves Fengkou County. ”
Lin Haotian raised his eyebrows and asked, "Then what do you think I should do?"
Peng Qian slowly walked forward two steps, looked at Lin Haotian with a smile, and said leisurely: "Invest in our cottage!"
As soon as these words came out, not to mention Lin Haotian, even the robbers around them were in an uproar, and they looked at Peng Qian with big eyes one by one.
"Peng Qian, are you crazy?" said Zhu Ming first.
This sentence was exactly what Lin Haotian wanted to ask, he raised his head and looked at Peng Qian with a puzzled gaze.
Peng Qian looked very calm, seeing that everyone was looking at him blankly, he cleared his throat and said: "Little brother, if you are willing to invest in us, then our strength will definitely be the strongest in the entire Guigu Mountain, and after the little brother helps us occupy the entire Guigu Mountain, we will definitely fund the little brother to go to Wancheng." ”
After hearing this, the robbers' eyes lit up, especially Zhu Ming, thinking that one day he would be able to occupy the entire Guigu Mountain, his eyes were almost shining.
Lin Haotian sneered, his eyes were cold, and he said unceremoniously: "Without you, I can still go to Wancheng, besides, what qualifications do you have to let me join the gang?"
His words were like a basin of cold water, poured on the heads of the robbers, and also extinguished the glimmer of hope that had just risen in Zhu Ming's heart, and the latter glanced at Peng Qian angrily, as if to say: How is it?
Peng Qian didn't care about Lin Haotian's attitude at all, he still had a happy expression, and said: "In troubled times, we have no choice but to fall into the grass!"
"Don't be ashamed!" Lin Haotian snorted at his words and said, "In that case, why don't you go to the army to serve the country?"
"In the army?" Peng Qian was stunned for a moment, and then as if he had heard some funny joke, he couldn't stop laughing, and said, "Little brother, do you think our Jin Kingdom is still the big Jin Country before?"
"What do you mean by that?"
"Since the death of General Xiahou Chengjie in battle ten years ago, the two kingdoms of Mu and Chi have repeatedly invaded the border, and the country's central army has long been frightened, and on weekdays, as long as the enemy army does not come to attack, thank God, expect them to fight the enemy army in turn? I think it will be waiting until the next life! Not to mention the local army, it is no different from us!"
According to the laws of the Jin Kingdom, in addition to one central legion stationed in each county, there are also two local legions, and the soldiers of the local legions are recruited from the local people and directly dispatched by the county guards. During the war, a large part of the army required by the state was also requisitioned from these local legions, but after all, the local legions belonged only to the local armed forces, and their combat effectiveness could not be compared with the central army at all.
After hearing this, Lin Haotian's brows were about to wrinkle, he turned his head and looked at the rest of the robbers uncertainly.
This time, the robbers reacted surprisingly unanimous, nodding their heads in agreement.
Seeing this, Lin Haotian couldn't help but feel faintly distressed, when Xiahou Chengjie was commanding the army, how majestic was the army of the Jin Kingdom? Which of the two kingdoms of Mu and Chi was not afraid of gold like a tiger? But how many short years have passed, and the country's army has degenerated into such a state, which is really heartbreaking.
Seeing that he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, Peng Qian comforted him on the side: "Little brother, it's good to join us, we have also done a lot of great things in the past few years, and we once ambushed the Red Army who came over!" As he spoke, Peng Qian didn't forget to look at Zhu Ming again and again.
Zhu Ming has been with him for so many years, and when he saw his expression, he understood everything, so he hurriedly nodded and agreed: "Yes, little brother, we have also ambushed the Red Army, you can do the same as us!"
"Little brother, don't hesitate any longer, throw us in, right?"
"Multiple brothers, multiple helpers!"
“......”
Listening to the two singing and harmonizing, the robbers standing on the side blushed and lowered their heads.
They did ambush the Red Army's transport team once, but they didn't know that the other party was the Red Army at that time, and when they figured out the situation, all the robbers had a feeling of imminent disaster, for fear that one day the Red Army would come over, Zuihou, or at Peng Qian's suggestion, sent someone to send grain and grass back to the Red Army overnight. But no one expected that now the two of them would be so unashamed to claim that they had ambushed the Red Army, and they looked like a righteous Ling Ran, and their cheeks were really not ordinarily thick.
Looking at the expressions of the two of them who were 'reluctant to give up', Lin Haotian sneered in his heart, as the so-called dedication to nothing is either a traitor or a thief! But after thinking about it, anyway, now that he is desperate, it is better to live here for the time being, and he can choose to leave at any time if he can't do it.
After making up his mind, he no longer shirked, and arched his hand and said to Zhu Ming: "Since the big boss doesn't dislike it, then the little brother Lin Haotian will beg for mercy!"
Hearing this, Zhu Ming almost suspected that his ears had heard it wrong, and it wasn't until Peng Qian on the side pulled his sleeves that he suddenly came back to his senses, stepped forward and grabbed Lin Haotian's hand, and said excitedly: "Okay... In the future, everyone will be their own people, and I don't dare to guarantee that as long as I have a bite to eat, I will never starve my brother!"
For this result, Peng Qian was particularly happy, he stared at Lin Haotian without leaving a trace, and then said with a smile: "Big boss, I will order the brothers to prepare wine and food, and wash the dust for Brother Lin, we will not get drunk tonight!"
The nest of Zhu Ming and his gang is a cottage built across the mountain, the cottage is surrounded by dense forests on both sides, the rear is close to a cliff, and the intersection of the mountain is only a narrow mountain road at the main entrance, looking at it from a distance, the whole village is like a pavilion in the air.
Walking among the mountain roads that seemed to be a line of sky, Lin Haotian couldn't help but blurt out: "What a dangerous place!"
Peng Qian nodded with a smile, and said without modesty: "Don't hide it from Brother Lin, the brothers have been guarding this place for some years, and the local army has come to encircle and suppress it many times, but they have all been beaten back by the brothers relying on the favorable terrain. ”
Lin Haotian smiled: "Then won't you become the overlord here?"
Peng Qian sighed heavily and said, "Brother doesn't know, we are not the only ones in the Guigu Mountains, and there are more than a dozen other large and small gangs together." ”
When Lin Haotian heard this, he couldn't help but grin secretly, he couldn't imagine that just a small Guigu Mountain was so serious about banditry, and the security of the entire Jin Country could be imagined.
After a pause, Peng Qian continued: "But don't worry, brother, our strength is also one of the best here, and the only one who can pose a threat to us is Dong Meng and his gang in Shannan. ”
"Dong Meng?"
"Dong Meng is the leader of a group of robbers in the south of Guigu Mountain, with many subordinates, and he competes with us for territory on weekdays. ”
"Oh!" Lin Haotian replied lightly, but he firmly remembered the name Dong Meng.
