Marching in the field is not like being in the village, but there are no delicacies from the mountains and seas. Fortunately, both the northbound team and the receiving team brought a lot of drinks. And the dry rations of the march, and the jerky, and the bread, and the people drank wine and talked merrily.

Nearly 20 heroes gathered, and everyone was very happy!

This indicates that Chaojiazhuang is becoming more and more prosperous and can do a great career in the future.

Chen Hu, Kong Ming, a reckless man, after encountering the stumbling, Yutai, Ma Xun, and Ma Jin, roared one by one, sticking to the wine like a magnet.

Looking at each other, you can spark.

Chao Gai had a few glasses of wine with everyone, and stayed away from Xiao Jiasui and Wu Yong.

Herod!

In the distance, horses neighed, as if a black lightning bolt was coming from afar.

It is the king of horses who are quite human.

"Yo, I've gained a lot of weight!" Chao Gai looked at the black horse and stepped forward to pat the horse's head. The dark horse shook his head, and finally bumped into him affectionately.

"Oh, this horse is a great horse, more than nine feet tall, with thick limbs, tall and majestic, roaring like thunder, running like the wind, it is a dragon horse." Xiao Jiasui saw this black horse and turned around a few times in amazement.

"Oh, do officials know the art of Soma?" Chao Gai, Wu Yong is curious.

"I know a little bit about it, this horse is psychic, and it is difficult to find it in the world." Xiao Jiasui's eyes were full of amazement.

"Yes, this horse is psychic!" Wu nodded approvingly. immediately talked about Chen Hu's danger and sudden rush out to rescue.

"Hehe, now Chen Hu doesn't have anything to say about saving his life, and he often entertains him with wine and meat."

The three of them laughed when they heard what Wu Yong said interestingly.

After a few words of gossip, Chao Gai asked: "Jialiang, tell me about the situation in the village!" ”

Wu Yong did not dare to slack off, and was concise and straightforward to report the situation in the village.

For more than three months, the development of Chaojiazhuang has never stopped, and the project has never stopped. Now Zhuangzi has changed greatly, changing with each passing day, and it is difficult to express it in words.

Anyway, the commercial area of Zhuangshang is more lively than the county seat.

Restaurants, brick kilns, garment spinning and other businesses have made a lot of profits after they were rolled out. With Yunseong, Jeju officials secretly have close business dealings. Coupled with the purchase of caravans from all over the country, the reserves of food and various supplies are amazing!

……

Chao Gai listened to the report quietly, and he was not surprised when he had expected it. Only the number of horses recruited and purchased by the guards pleased him. In addition, Han Shizhong, who returned seven or eight days ago, brought back more than 100 Western troops in a hundred battles. It surprised and delighted him, but unfortunately he couldn't turn around and call Yantong.

Xiao Jiasui's situation is completely different, and he is very shocked to know in advance. Because the current situation that Wu Yong said is very different from three months ago.

300 restaurants all over Shandong Prefecture? Is the daily income of the dealer thousands of taels? New and old guards, the number of restaurant guards adds up to 18,000?

The rapid development of Chao Tianwang's power is unimaginably deep. It was only at this time that Xiao Daguan believed that maybe someone was really the reincarnation of Zi Weixing.

"Maybe he can put an end to the troubled times!" Xiao Jiasui thought secretly.

Chao Gai didn't know what Xiao Jiasui was thinking, his face was still calm, and he asked, "I have a guess, is there anything important?" ”

Wu Yong thought for a while and stretched out four fingers: "Three big things, one small thing." ”

"Let's talk about the small ones first."

Wu Yong also had a bit of a bad taste, and even bent his little thumb down: "The three sons of the Zhu family are captured, Zhu Chaofeng, and Luan Tingyu will redeem people." The ransom is 30,000 taels of silver, and my brother is not at home, so we dare not call the shots. ”

"How can it be that simple? Wait until I get back to deal with it. Chao Gai grimaced. The captain of his own personal guard almost hung up, and he didn't give anyone face.

Wu Yong's expression became solemn: "The first major event is the change of the state capital. Hou Ming, a new governor came to Yanzhou, who punished corrupt officials and corrupt officials as soon as he took office, trying to track down the Wang Jiaji case. The younger brother suspects that it is aimed at us. ”

"Hou Ming? He could spot a bird! Chao Gai sneered. Immediately, I thought of Hou Meng, the head of the household, and most of them were related to the family. Thinking that the other party is in a bad situation, it won't last for a few years, and the people close to him will be unlucky.

Wu Yong was a little worried when he mentioned this: "In addition, Xiangzhou, Huazhou, Yunzhou and other places have come to the three or five battalions of forbidden troops. According to our spies, they are not ordinary forbidden troops, most of them are transferred from the border. ”

After Xiao Jiasui regained his composure and heard the news, he shook his head and smiled: "Don't worry, Xiao thinks that there have been frequent cases in the recent period." The imperial court deliberately mobilized the border army to sit in the state capital to formally or exterminate the strongman. It doesn't have much to do with us. But you also need to be careful. ”

"Not bad! Although the target is not us, be vigilant and prepared. Chao Gai pondered for a moment and nodded, then adjusted his strategic deployment slightly.

"The second thing is that Chaojiazhuang has attracted the attention of people who are interested, and there are always suspicious people, which is consistent with the news sent back by the restaurant and scouts everywhere." The more Wu Yong said, the tighter his brows tightened, as if thinking about countermeasures.

Chao Gai and Xiao Jiasui looked at each other and smiled, patting Wu Yong's shoulder to comfort: "Hahaha, don't worry! Chaojiazhuang's red fire will naturally attract attention. Do a good job of prevention, and strictly prevent the mixing of spies in the guards. This incident is a wake-up call, and it will be even more lively when our team returns from the north! ”

"What my brother said is that the recruitment of guards is very strict," Wu Yong breathed a sigh of relief.

"In the end, it was the Su Ding brothers who led the team to continue to fight against Liangshan. Wang Lun is naturally very cooperative, and he doesn't dare to leave Shuibo if he loses more than he wins. Seeing the bravery of our navy, many merchant ships took the initiative to spend money to hire them to pass through the water. ”

"Oh, that's a good thing!" Chao Gai's eyebrows fluttered when he heard the news, and it could be seen that Wu Yong's face was wrong, and he wondered: "Why is Jialiang worried?" ”

"Brother, I don't know where the confidence of Yunzhou Zhizhou came from, or there are villains who stir up trouble. First, they actually wanted to open an official ferry on the Jinsha River to collect shipping taxes. In addition, I wanted to requisition our warships, but I was hunted and shirked. Wu Yong was very angry when he said this, and told the truth about the bad things.

"Huh? Yunzhou Zhizhou took the wrong fake medicine, right? There is a Dong who hit the bull. What do you do with sorrow? Go back and let Liang Shanjun give him a four-sided flower? Chao Gai was angry but didn't attack, and the cold light flashed in his eyes.

"What's my brother's plan?" Wu Yong, Xiao Jiasui asked hurriedly.

"Of course it's borrowed food!" Chao Gai looked at the two military divisions with a strange expression. Immediately told him his plan, where to borrow the grain, who to borrow, and how to borrow it, and let Wu Yong, Xiao Jiasui looked at him blankly.

If the Green Forest strongman is here, he will definitely die of shame!

"What's your expression? This is what Lao Tzu plans to do after going up the mountain. If you encounter such a bird feather, then take him to practice his hands first and make a fortune. Chao Gai saw that the expressions of the two were different, and explained with a cold snort.

"Those border soldiers, what about Dong Yi?"

"Damn, if you're not honest, you'll kill him if you dare to." Chao Gai really doesn't like people like Dong Ping very much, his voice is cold and murderous.

"Hey, my brother is here, some things are much simpler!" Seeing that a few things had fallen in a blink of an eye, Wu Yong breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but smile ashamedly.

"Anything else?" Chao Gai whistled.

"Brother." Wu Yong hesitated for a moment, but finally said: "Li Kui's mother suffers from an eye disease and can't see people clearly, several famous doctors are helpless, and the Ruan family's mother's old back sore attack is also difficult to treat. ”

Chao Gai's face changed, and he asked, "How is the old lady?" Where is it now? ”

"Brother, don't worry, the two old ladies are in stable condition and are fine." Wu Yong hurriedly said: "My brother once said that there is a miracle doctor An Daoquan in Jiankang Mansion in Jinling, and the medicine for incurable diseases is eliminated, Li Kui, Wulang, and Qilang took their respective mothers and San Lang to follow them to Jiankang Mansion. ”

"Well, no wonder I didn't see the black guy, San Lang, it turned out to be this thing." Chao Gai's face softened, and he asked, "When are they leaving?" ”

"I'll wait until the day before yesterday!"

"Where are the guards? Come with me for a trip to Jiankang. Chao Gai shouted.

"Hey, my brother has never stopped, and if my younger brother doesn't say it, I'm afraid that my brother will be in a hurry." Wu Yong saw Chao Gai's posture of saying that he would leave, and he couldn't wait to pump his mouth.

Chao Gai naturally understood that he had good intentions, and took his arm and said: "Jialiang, you don't know about Jiankang, and second, your brother's family is Chao's relatives." Now that the situation is urgent, how can I stay out of it? The miracle doctor has a lot to do with it, how can I get people back if I don't go personally?

Xiao Daguan has just arrived, and he will be handed over to you to take care of, how close he is. In addition, Du Po and Wei He, two brothers in the rear team, cannot be neglected. When these poor people return to the village, they must settle down properly......"

Chao Gai pulled Wu Yong and Xiao Jiasui, chattering and explaining things. The duties of the new brothers are nothing more than to lead the troops to train when they are adapted.

In his previous voice, the crowd who were pushing the cups and changing the lamps rushed over. Hearing Chao Gai's sentence, his brother's family is his Chao's relatives. Everyone's hearts were warm, and the eyes of the newly added people were red.

Following such a loving and righteous brother is not in vain in this life!

Even the father of the horse in a few carriages not far away, the old lady was greatly touched when she heard this, and felt that her son was not with the wrong person.

"Brother, I'll go to Jinling with you!" After shouting, everyone stepped forward: "Brother, my two brothers will also go with you." ”

"Master, you can't leave us alone." Kong Ming, Kong Liang pounced at his feet.

"!" Chao Gai couldn't wait to kick them away, grabbed one with one hand, then looked at the excited crowd, waved his hand and pressed down: "Brothers, take into account the overall situation and send the people back to the village." In addition, the current situation is not good, and you need to sit in the base camp. After I left, I acted on the orders of Wu Yong and Xiao Jiasui.

With that, he began to order his entourage!

Han Shizhong, Guo Sheng, Chen Bao, and Chen Hu naturally followed the captain of the guard. Kong Ming and Kong Liang can only take them with them when they kneel. Sun An, Shan Shiqi, he wants to understand the situation and be close to him.

The last one is Ma Xian, and let him go to see the miracle doctor.

Naturally, the dark horse came over and joined in.

Then he selected more than a dozen personal guards and brought necessary supplies such as dry rations for the march.

The people got on their horses and prepared to leave.

"Brother, San Lang is taking the waterway and chasing along the river." Wu Yong thought for a moment to make sure he didn't say anything, and hurriedly patted his head and shouted.

"Brighten, brighten, what do you want me to say, come back and punish you with thirty cups." Chao Gai glared, and after figuring out the direction, he led people to run away.

"Hahaha, Mr. Wu, you are miserable!"

Everyone was fast, and soon they were already far away, but they could hear the laughter behind them!
