Chapter 137: The Old Army's Past
Lao Huang sighed...... "Originally, one of my old brothers also retired in this arsenal, but he is a careful person, and his mind is also lively. Later, after saving some money, he fell in love with a widow who lived alone in Taoshan County, and the widow later gave birth to a child. He was afraid that he would get into trouble if he had something to do with the woman in the garrison as a soldier...... I quietly want to send her and the child back to their hometown in Jinju......"
"As a result, when I went around the Sanhe Village in the northwest of Daqingshan, I still encountered the thieves of Daqingshan...... The woman was pressed into the donkey cart and was ruined to death, and my old brother watched his woman breathe while protecting the child, but the leader of the thieves slashed at her...... Lao Zhou was stabbed and then desperately resisted, but the child was trampled to death by them, grabbed an axe and hacked two minions to death, and then threw himself into the ditch and swam out. ”
Lao Huang looked depressed with his hands behind his back...... Then he said: "Lao Liu escaped all the way back...... Finally, he climbed into the county seat with a sigh of relief, and when I saw him, he said a word...... Big brother, I want to avenge my family! ”
Lao Huang smiled bitterly...... "I'm old, and there are only these old brothers left around me, what can I take to avenge him?" Let's go and ask the county lieutenant to meet him, hoping that the county lieutenant can recruit township soldiers to go to Daqingshan to suppress bandits...... But County Lieutenant Sun didn't even let us in, and sent us away with a word! ”
Lao Huang whispered with a desolate face: "If Song Dutou trains his brothers well, if the county government or Shuai Si has an order to exterminate the thieves in Daqingshan in the future...... Song Dutou dare to take a few of our brothers to fight on the battlefield once? ”
Song Wen arched his hand and said: "It is incumbent on us to protect the territory and the people, even if there is no order from the county government and the government, if our township soldiers have the opportunity to suppress the bandits, what's the big deal?"
"That's hundreds of real thieves and bandits, and hundreds of thousands of homeless people gathered in Daqing Mountain, you have to think about it!"
Song Wen smiled slightly: "How can a group of rabble be worthy of a group of hot-blooded men under my command?"
Lao Huang clenched his fists: "Sure enough, he is a good man!"
Four carts rushed over and pulled away the weapons and leather armor and other equipment that Song Wen had picked, and several old arsenal kudin stood at the door to see each other off, and Lao Huang arched his hand and said to Song Wen on the horse: "I hope that Song Dutou will not forget today's words, if you go to fight the thieves in Daqingshan in the future, our brothers are willing to be pawns!"
"We are all willing to avenge Brother Liu's family!"
"Yes, we can still use the knife to kill those dog thieves to take revenge!"
Song Wen solemnly arched his hand on the horse: "A gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase!" I, a soldier in Qingshanzhai Township, will definitely step on Daqingshan to punish rape and eliminate evil, and return the people of Taoshan County to a peaceful day! ”
The chariots and horses left the old arsenal. And on the corner of the street, two idlers who probed their brains listened to everything clearly, and then ran into an alley and disappeared.
An Chun glanced at it and whispered to Song Wen: "Brother, these two guys have been following us since we entered the county seat, and the sneaky ones are definitely not a good way!"
Song Wen sneered: "What does he do?" If you want to follow, follow ...... Didn't Dinggu Dutou give me a banquet at night? Where is the place not set? ”
"It is said that it is in Jinhua Building, and Ding Gu is waiting for his brother."
Song Wen shook the reins of the horse and said with a smile: "Prepare a jar of fire to burn the spring, I still want to see how much wine is in this Dinggu Dutou?"
"Yes, brother!"
No matter how poor the place is, there will be no shortage of wine bureaus and green buildings, although a little shabby, but there are still a lot of guests coming and going, the only place that spoils the scenery is that there are more beggars outside the door and in the back alley. One by one, they stared like wolves at the swill buckets and guests in the back alleys.
Song Wen got off the horse, An Chun took the reins of the horse and handed it to Xiao Er, who ran over to greet him, and the little beggars around looked at the saber worn by Song Wen on his waist and shrank his neck...... Looks like a master he can't mess with.
A villager went back to report the news, and then Ding Gu came out with a smile on his face...... "Oh, Song Du admires his face, our old Ding feels honored...... Song Du head inside please! ”
Song Wen exchanged a few words, and then walked up to the second floor with Ding Gu.
Two more merchant proprietors who were mixed in Taoshan County and two men who claimed to be opening inns and dart games came up to pay their respects, and Song Wenzi smiled politely and politely...... There's no way, Huaxia has been playing these vain shackles for thousands of years, but the knowledge in this shelf is still very deep.
If you want to settle down or open a business, sometimes this wine table can really solve a lot of problems.
Everyone sat down, the two unpopular township soldiers all had wine on their heads, and those real squires and rich people who could communicate with the county lieutenant would not deign to go to the banquet, and Song Wen still didn't look down on these rich turtles...... After all, Bianliang's vision is there.
Ding Gu has been followed by two henchmen, one of whom is the guy who wants to find fault with Song Wen at the gate of the city, tall with a yellow face and thin eyebrows, and his eyes flashing, he is a scheming guy at a glance.
After greeting for a while, Ding Gu raised his glass and said: "Song Dutou is really a young hero, and if he runs an obscure Qingshan Village well, dozens of young people can kill the nearly 200 bandits...... This position as the head of Taoshan County is well deserved! ”
Song Wen said politely: "The elder brother of the Ding family exalted me too much, but one of his brothers was seriously injured by those thieves, and a female relative was kidnapped. Is this tolerable...... Fortunately, my little brothers who took in me dared to fight with one heart, and it was just a fluke! Where can it be compared to the Ding family's elder brother who has guarded this Taoshan County for more than ten years, safe and sound, and worked hard! I salute my brother with a ......."
The sedan chair carried people, Ding Gu smiled happily, picked up the wine glass and took a sip!
Pushing the cup and changing the lamp, everyone drank happily, and Song Wen also vaguely revealed that he had also accumulated a net worth by doing business for several dignitaries in Bianliang, and he could be regarded as settling down in Taoshan County. In the future, I am afraid that I will have to buy some family business shops or something in this Taoshan County......
This is easy to do, everyone is actually a little afraid of this sudden rise of a force, since they will be a family in the future, it will be easy to get along.
When he got drunk, Ding Gu suddenly said to the two followers behind him with drunken eyes...... "Go, go to the building and find the flower girl who can sing, Brother Song Xian, this flower Erniang song is soul-stirring, hahaha...... Brother Xian hasn't gotten married yet, right? It's okay, it's okay, how can a good man not be romantic? Although the flower world in Bianliang is good, our small place also has its own Oiran hehe......"
The yellow-faced henchman frowned, and finally retreated, and hurriedly went to find the flower Erniang to come over and sing.
Ding Gu Dutou seemed to be a little drunk, and shouted for the cousin to bring wine again...... Song Wen pursed his lips secretly, the jar of fire spring he brought was saved, and the amount of wine in Ding Gu was really bad.
I also want to open a meat for myself to introduce the lady of the Qinglou...... If you know the name of the little grandfather Bianliang Turtle God, you still have to kneel down and kowtow to your grandfather?
Several guests who accompanied the wine saw that Ding Gu was drunk, so they all gave their hands to leave, and the shopkeeper of the restaurant also ran up to greet Song Wen, and then boldly gave away the money for the wine and food, and treated it as their own restaurant to Song Wen and Song Du.
Ding Gu didn't reluctantly still take five taels of silver and said that he would come to treat him to this banquet, and then pulled Song Wen to go outside in a dazzled and staggered manner.
Another henchman came up to help, Ding Gu suddenly raised his leg and kicked the villager soldier and scolded: "Get out, hurry up and pull my Song Xiandi's horse over, my Xian brother has to go back to the barracks...... Hurry up! ”
The guy covered his stomach and nodded and went to the backyard to lead the horse, but Ding Gu took Song Wen's hand but suddenly clenched it......
Song Wenyi frowned, but Ding Gu said in a low voice: "Brother Xian, my township soldier is the head...... It's aggrieved! ”
Song Wenyi raised his eyebrows and ......, "Brother, what are you talking about?" County Lieutenant Sun relies on his brother to guard the county seat, and Master Meng ......"
"Brother, you have to be careful...... That Master Meng is really stupid and fake stupid, he will only pretend to be stupid! But the county lieutenant of Nasun ...... But a real ruthless character! Taiqingshan ...... Most of the silver looted and extorted by Daqingshan went to Taoshan County...... It's very dangerous! ”
Song Wen's heart moved, and he said softly: "What does my brother mean...... That Daqingshan can't easily move? ”
"You have to be careful...... Don't talk about going to suppress bandits, I'm afraid that those thieves in Daqingshan and some people in Taoshan County have already targeted you, if it weren't for the good combat power of a group of teenagers in your hands, I'm afraid that someone would have already hit the door or secretly attacked your people! ”
Song Wen said softly: "What does my brother mean...... Is there a collusion between the thieves in Daqingshan and the people in the yamen? ”
Ding Gu smiled bitterly...... "It's not just collusion, it's just ...... Alas, the two people behind me, you know, even my every move they will report to the people outside...... In short, you must be careful, don't be tricked! ”
Song Wen nodded: "It turns out that there is such a terrible inside story in this poor and remote Taoshan County...... It's appalling! Thank you brother for reminding me and Song Wen for remembering! In the future, if my brother has a place to use me, he will tell ......"
Ding Gu was about to say something more, when he saw another villager who followed him walking quickly with two horses, Ding Gu staggered and shouted: "It's a waste to lead a horse!" My brother is ...... Say...... Anyway, I won't go to the building to listen to music...... Let Hua Erniang, who is like a turtle, go back, and Lao Tzu will prostitute her tomorrow...... Belch...... Belch...... Vomit! ”
Ding Gu fell to the ground drunk, the attendant hurriedly went up to help, Song Wen also pretended to be overwhelmed by alcohol and was helped on the horse by An Chun, and this reception wine game was dispersed.
