Chapter 237: Gao Yu sent a killer

Hearing Zhu Biao's words, Zhu Long was stunned, will this kid still hide his edge?

How does Gao Yu want to fight?

The pressure on this old boy is not small for me!

The main force under his command is the 50,000 troops transferred by Tong Guan from Jiangnan, but now Jiangnan is not calm.

According to the report of the Secret Guard Battalion, now Fang La has taken the opportunity to start a counterattack, the officers and soldiers can no longer suppress the bullets, and the good situation is almost ruined, and everyone is looking forward to the 50,000 troops returning to participate in the suppression!

So, there is not much time left for Gao Yu!

He had to do it quickly!

Otherwise, Emperor Daojun would urge him every day.

Thinking of this, Zhu Long raised his head and smiled: "Gao Yu definitely wants to fight quickly!" ”

Zhu Biao also smiled and said, "The more urgent the enemy, the more we have to slow down!" Play procrastination tricks for him! ”

"Not bad!" Zhu Long nodded appreciatively, the third brother does have a strategy.

"What about Staff Officer Xu?" Zhu Long looked at Xu Guanzhong.

Xu Guanzhong bowed slightly, "My opinion is slightly different from that of Sanguanren. ”

"Oh?" Both brothers looked at him with interest.

I saw Xu Guanzhong unhurriedly said: "Of Gao Yu's 100,000 troops, 50,000 were brought by Tong Guan from Jiangnan, and most of them were captured by the lord when he attacked Zhujiazhuang last year. ”

"Therefore, they are afraid of the Zhu family's army, as long as we find this official army and break it in one fell swoop, we can cause the official army to collapse!"

It seems to make sense......

Zhu Long fell into deep thought, unable to make up his mind for a while, as if there was a fog in front of him.

"How can we know the deployment of the officers and troops?" Zhu Biao shook his head, he didn't know how powerful the Dark Guard Camp was.

Xu Guanzhong looked at Zhu Long with a smile, and Zhu Long smiled: "Don't we have an old friend?" ”

Zhu Biao was stunned for a moment, and said suspiciously: "You mean Tong Guan?" ”

"You just remembered!"

Zhu Long shook his head and smiled, and the three of them continued to walk forward, strolling around the village.

"Hey, why is Zhujia Village so deserted?" Zhu Biao said suddenly.

Well?

Zhu Long raised his head and looked around, and sure enough, there was no one.

There are nearly 10,000 households in Zhujia Village, which is comparable to a town and is very lively.

There were many taverns and shops in the village, as well as vendors who went to buy and sell. Zhujiazhuang also opened a hotel in the village, but after it was burned down by Shi Xiu, it was not built again.

But now the village is sparsely populated and deserted, many of the doors are closed, and even weeds grow in front of some houses, apparently no one has lived in them for a long time.

Zhu Long and Zhu Biao glanced at each other, and then silently did not speak.

"In the first two months, I often came to Zhujia Village to wander around and chat with the villagers. There are often wars in Zhujia Village, and they are all worried! For fear that the city gate would catch fire and affect the fish in the pond. ”

Xu Guanzhong sighed and continued: "Those who have the conditions have moved away. But not many have moved away, where can they move in this world! ”

Zhu Long was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised his head again and said, "This year's field rent will be reduced by two percent!" ”

Xu Guanzhong bowed down and said, "The lord is merciful! ”

"When we were children, we often secretly came to the village to play, and we always felt that the village was too deserted, not as lively as the village, and there were many children here, so we played games together...... Big brother, do you remember that big jujube tree? Zhu Biao recalled his childhood.

"I seem to be a little impressed......

"You're older than me, why don't you remember?"

"You're smarter than me and Zhu Hu!"

……

The roads in Zhujia Village are crisscrossed and crisscrossed, because it is on the hill, and the highlands are undulating. Standing at the door of the house behind, with the roof of the house in front of you.

Stone steps, stone paths, alleys......

Zhu Long and Zhu Biao couldn't turn around later, but Xu Guanzhong took them out, and the three of them couldn't help laughing.

When I returned to Zhujiazhuang on the top of the hill, I saw seven or eight people standing at the gate.

When they saw Zhu Long coming up from below, they all hurriedly walked over. It was Wu Song who walked in front, but Zhu Long's gaze fell on a burly man behind.

He's Ren Yuan!

The last time Zhu Hu recruited him, he was disrespectful, but he was defeated by Wu Song and beaten violently, and now he came according to the agreement, and he can be regarded as a man who keeps his promises.

"Brother Ren, you're here!"

Ren Yuan bowed down and hugged his fists and said, "The villain is here!" I was arrogant and ignorant before, and I was so ashamed that I was ashamed of myself! The villain asks to join Zhujiazhuang, and I hope that the big officials will take it in! ”

"Brother Ren is willing to join Zhujiazhuang, I can't ask for it! Follow me in the future! ”

Zhu Long is also very happy, before the war, there is a fierce future to vote, this is a good omen!

Everyone hugged him and Ren Yuan, entered Zhujiazhuang together, held a banquet, and washed the dust for him.

As long as Wu Song is there, Zhu Long rarely has a chance to get drunk.

He, the captain of the camp and the protector of the lord, has more of a chance at the wine table.

He just made a bold statement that he would be at the wine table today, and he would be competent again and kill him twice.

Sure enough, he did what he said, and after drinking three bowls of Zhujiazhuang's high-strength wine, Ren Yuan lay under the table and was carried down.

"I can't imagine that such a big man has such a bad amount of alcohol!

When everyone was drunk, Zhu Long was still very sober.

There was also a sober person at the wine table, Xu Guanzhong.

He has a wide robe and big sleeves all day long, a crown and a broad belt, a scholarly style, gentle and elegant, everyone thinks he is a powerless scholar.

No one knows that he has been a military general and is strong in martial arts. Only Zhu Long had seen him win more with less, killing robbers.

The two came to the office room and continued to discuss the details of the war, and suddenly their subordinates reported that Shi Qian had returned from Tokyo and wanted to meet Zhu Long.

Some time ago, many people from the dark guard camp were sent to Tokyo to inquire about the news, and Sister-in-law Gu and his wife also went to Tokyo to open a branch.

Since Shi Qian returned from Tokyo at this time, he must have brought important information with him.

"Hurry up and ask him to come over!" Zhu Long frowned slightly, could it be that Zhujiazhuang has become bureaucratized, why do his subordinates at this level have to report when they see him?

This incident aroused his alarm a little.

The revolution has not yet succeeded, and now he can't engage in these vain things, which will reduce his work efficiency and alienate him from his subordinates.

"Lord!" Shi Qian came in, his steps were light, he walked with the wind, came to Zhu Long, and knelt on one knee.

"Brother Shiqian, please get up!" Zhu Long stepped forward to help him up, and said with concern: "Everything is fine, have you encountered any danger?" ”

"Everything is fine with the little ones!" Shi Qian stood up, looked at Xu Guanzhong, and saluted: "Mr. Xu is well!" ”

Xu Guanzhong stood up and saluted back: "Brother Shiqian has worked hard all the way!" ”

"You don't know yet, Mr. Xu is now the marching staff officer of my Zhujia army!" Zhu Long said with a smile.

"Congratulations to Mr. Xu, no, it's Staff Officer Xu!"

"I, the marching staff officer, still need information from your secret guards to make suggestions!"

"It's our business!" Shi Qian said modestly.

Zhu Long asked, "How is it in Tokyo?" Are the brethren alright? ”

Unexpectedly, Shi Qian's face darkened, and he shook his head and said, "Something happened to Le and his brother!" ”

"Oh? What happened to Le and Brother? ”

"The last time he stole Gao Yu's information, Tong Guan was defeated, and the court was thoroughly investigating the matter, and Gao Yu was a little suspicious of him."

Zhu Long looked nervous and asked, "How is Nale and Brother now?" ”

"Don't worry, the Le and brothers have a lot of connections in Tokyo, and now they have changed their doors and taken refuge under Taishi Cai Jingmen!"

"How did he climb Cai Jing?" Zhu Long really admired Lehe, he was so good at pulling relationships, why didn't he mix well in Dengzhou at the beginning?

"Hehe, he followed the prefect of Cai Jiu."

"Isn't Cai Jiu the prefect of Jiangzhou?"

"The lord doesn't know, Cai Jiu's prefect has already returned to Beijing, and he has taken on an idle position, spending all day drinking, and the Lehe brothers have shown his ability to play and sing, and he was immediately taken by Cai Jiu!"

"I see!"

Zhu Long nodded, thinking that Shi Qian's matter was over, and said, "You have worked hard all the way, go back and rest first, and drink together at night." ”

"Lord, I still have the most important thing to say!" Shi Qian took a few steps forward and walked up to Zhu Long with a nervous expression: "Before Lehe left Gao Yu, he overheard the last piece of information - Gao Yu sent a killer to assassinate you!" ”

Zhu Long was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said: "Gao Yu, this is a poor donkey skill, and he wants to use such a method, I have seen too many legendary stories!" ”

"The lord can't be careless!" Shi Qian reminded.

"Well, I'll be careful!" Zhu Long said this verbally, but the expression on his face was full of indifference.

He really didn't care.

There are many guards around him, and on weekdays, he is either in Zhujiazhuang or in the army, and it is difficult for assassins to kill him, even if they want to see him.

After Shi Qian left, Xu Guanzhong looked at Zhu Long with a serious face, and said with a straight face: "Lord, this assassin's matter should not be underestimated, you must be careful to beware!" ”

"Well, I'll be careful." Zhu Long said perfunctorily.

Xu Guanzhong continued: "I will ask Wu Song to select thirty-six loyal and reliable soldiers with the best skills from the camp and divide them into three squads, led by Lu Fang, Jiao Ting, and Hu Gang, to protect the lord day and night, and never leave!" ”

"Right?" Zhu Long frowned and said: "It's just an assassin, just make the grass and trees all soldiers, wouldn't it make people laugh at me Zhu Gentian is as small as a mouse!" ”

"The lord is familiar with history books, don't you remember Qingji and Sun Cehu?" Xu Guanzhong did not back down.

Zhu Long was speechless, thought for a while, and said: "Forget it in Zhujiazhuang, when I leave Zhujiazhuang, I will bring a team of guards with me, how about it?" ”

But Xu Guanzhong, who has always been mild-mannered, insisted on his opinion, knelt down on one knee and said: "The lord is a filial son, please think about the old lady!" ”

Zhu Long couldn't resist him, and said helplessly: "Just from what Staff Officer Xu said, you can arrange it!" ”

……

Five days later, Tong Guan was sitting in the study, and on the table in front of him was a letter, which was spread out on the table, and had obviously been opened and read.

"This is Zhu Long's handwritten letter!" He said with a blank face.

"Yes!" There is another person in the house, he is Master He.

"He wants me to tell him where the 50,000 army is and who will lead it!"

Master He patted his ass and said: "It is the right of the prime minister to transfer troops and dispatch generals, and Gao Yu is no more than a general who commands the troops." ”

"I mean, what does he mean?"

Master He thought about it, considered the words, and then said slowly: "I probably think it's easier to deal with my hands!" ”

"Humph! Defeated once, is there a second time? Tong Guan felt uncomfortable and didn't have a good airway.

"Zhu Long is indeed very arrogant! But the subordinates feel that they can cooperate with them once! ”

"Okay, I'll write an order and let Yumei command 20,000 Jiangnan soldiers!"

Master He shook his head and persuaded: "After the subordinates, General Yu should not lead these people and horses!" ”

"Oh? Why? ”

"These soldiers and horses are destined to be defeated, isn't this pushing General Yu into the fire pit?"

Tong Guan nodded, "If it weren't for your reminder, I would have almost harmed Yumei!" Then send another general! ”

"Enxiang, Jiangnan came to expedite the military situation in the morning, Fang La, after several months of repair, taking advantage of the lack of officers and soldiers, has launched a fierce attack!" Master He reminded.

"How I don't know!" Tong Guan sighed and said, "I will enter the palace tomorrow to face the saint, and ask the official family to urge Gao Yu to send troops!" Every day, if you don't send troops, do you want to fight? ”

Tong Guan is very dissatisfied with Gao Yu!

Almost at the same time, Gao Yu also explained some things to his son Gao Yanei at home.

Originally, Gao Yanei was his brother in the clan, and Gao Yu, who had no children, had a whim, and turned this "brother" into a "son", and he was very tired of love, almost wanting the wind and the rain, and was rampant and domineering in the capital, bullying men and women.

"Son! I'm not at home, you don't go out to fool around, and read more books at home! Gao Yu admonished.

"Dad, there's a use for reading! You see that you are yourself, you haven't studied for a few days, but now you are not in a high position, and there are many Hanlin and Jinshi under your command to work for you! ”

Gao Yu's eyes widened, his beard was straight, and he scolded angrily: "I can have today, not because I have no culture!" Your father and I are lucky to become the ministers of the official family, not everyone is so lucky. ”

"Let's read a good book to Lao Tzu!" After speaking, he turned around to leave, but was stopped by his son:

"Dad, I want to go to war with you and see the world!"

"You're going to war with me?"

Gao Yu looked at Gao Yanei in surprise, and said angrily: "Is it that Tokyo City can't accommodate you, and you want to go to war with me?" ”

"Do you know how dangerous it is to fight? What you should do is to study hard, and then get into the Jinshi and become a civil official! There is no future in being a military general, you know? ”

Gao Yanei puffed up and said: "I don't care about any civil and military officials, I just want to go to war and kill people!" ”

"Murder?" Gao Yu was puzzled in his heart, and suddenly figured it out, and said, "Are you trying to kill Lin Chong?" ”

"Yes! If I don't kill him, I won't sleep well, and I always dream that he came to me for revenge and stabbed me with a sharp knife more than a dozen holes! ”

"You're still too young and kind. When you do too many bad things in the future, you won't have any psychological burden. ”

Gao Yu said angrily: "Don't worry, if I see him on the battlefield this time, I will definitely not let him escape again, I will definitely cut off his head and bring it back to our two to use to play Keju." ”
