"Well, bring all the money with you!"

"When it comes to military rations, buy as much as you can!"

Yang Guang said, sighing deeply.

He thought about it, took off the saber beside him, and handed it to Wu Xiaozhong.

"This is a sword made by a famous craftsman, and I think it should be worth some silver."

Seeing this, Wu Xiaoer couldn't help but be a little moved.

He has always felt that the high-ranking generals are the kind of cold-blooded generals who don't care about the lives of their soldiers.

But what Yang Guang did changed his opinion.

Wu Xiaoer didn't say anything more, but nodded emphatically,

"Don't worry, general, even if your subordinates give up this life, they will definitely complete the task you assigned."

"Go ahead!"

……

Xiongge,

Yang Dong listened to the advice of his subordinates, his eyes lit up slightly,

Great, these rebels have finally taken the bait,

If you want food and grass, then hand over the money!

Zhu Yu sat aside, saw Yang Dong's excited expression, and couldn't help but ask:

"Yang Gong, do you really plan to sell grain to these rebels?"

"If they really have food, wouldn't they be able to preserve their strength and return to Pingzhou?"

Yang Dong smiled faintly, and his face showed a confident glow.

"Don't worry, they won't go back to Pingzhou!"

"Besides, this food was originally intended to feed these rebel soldiers. Let's just prostitute some silver for nothing, all in all, it's not a loss! ”

Although Zhu Yu couldn't figure out the truth, he still said "oh" obediently.

Yang Dong didn't explain anything, but immediately arranged for someone to send the grain and grass over.

……

Huang

In a broken house,

Wu Xiaoer looked at the person in front of him with a worried face, and couldn't help but ask:

"Brother, are you sure you really have so much grain in your hands?"

The man just nodded slightly, and then pointed to the corner of the deserted village,

"The food you want, just put it there, you can go and check it at any time."

Wu Xiaoer turned his head sideways, and sure enough, in the corner, he saw a lot of carriages, parked there.

Wait a minute

Now the entire Xiongguan is surrounded by the shadow of the Great Zhou Yongwu Army,

How did the man who traded with him manage to transport this grain here without knowing it?

Could it be ...... Is he actually from the Great Zhou?

Thinking of this, Wu Xiaoer's heart couldn't help but mutter.

If the other party is really from Da Zhou, then he has to think about it carefully.

If these grains and grasses are poisoned, then he will be to blame!

"Brother, are you from the Great Zhou?"

When the man heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"What do you mean? Don't know the rules? ”

The rules, Wu Xiaoer naturally understands.

But in the current situation, he can't continue to talk about the rules!

I saw Wu Xiaoer stand up abruptly and say to the person in front of him:

"I naturally understand the rules, but whether there is a problem with your grain and grass is extremely important to me!"

"If my people eat your grain and grass and are poisoned, whose is it?"

When the man heard this, he also laughed.

"Boy, it seems that you really value this batch of grain and grass."

"Well, for the sake of the money you sent me, I'll let you break the rules once."

"These grains and grasses, you can check them casually, if there is any problem, Lao Tzu will unscrew his head and give it to you!"

When Wu Xiaoer heard this, his expression couldn't help but be stunned.

He was at the end of his rope before he made this decision. I didn't expect the other party to blame himself!

"Are you really asking me to check?"

"What nonsense! You bought it yourself with money, and it's okay to check it out. ”

"Hurry up, give you half an hour. If it's been a long time, I won't be able to cover it up on the side of the brave army. ”

When Wu Xiaoer heard this, the big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

It seems that the other party is not a brave soldier,

However, with an attitude of being responsible for the soldiers, Wu Xiaoer still took the silver needle and tried the poison one by one.

The end result is still satisfactory.

There were forty carriages, and none of the grain in them had been poisoned.

Wu Xiaoer counted out three hundred taels of silver and handed Yang Guang's sword over.

"That's all for all, you can watch and give."

The man obviously didn't expect that in addition to three hundred taels of silver, he would also receive a sword.

He drew his sword and looked at its blade by the light.

Not to mention, it's really a well-made sword!

"Okay, I'll take this sword, even if you have a hundred taels of silver."

"Take all this food back!"

When Wu Xiaoer heard this, his face was immediately full of joy.

He immediately arranged for someone to bring back the entire forty carts of grain according to the rules of the transaction.

When Yang Guang saw these grains and grasses, the whole person instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

He patted Wu Xiaoer's shoulder heavily and said earnestly:

"You've worked hard, it's good, General Ben will remember everything you've done."

"From now on, you will follow this general!"

Wu Xiaoer's expression was overjoyed, and he immediately knelt down on one knee and said:

"Everything is up to the general!"

……

On the rebel side,

Since receiving forty carts of grain, the morale of the army has stabilized.

However, Yang Guang did not order a retreat, but ordered the soldiers to go to the mountains to cut down trees and rebuild the camp.

As I watched the tents be built day by day,

Wu Xiaoer muttered in his heart,

General, is it possible that he still plans to continue to be stationed here?

But...... Forty truckloads of grain are not enough at all!

Although he was suspicious, he also knew that there were some things that he should not know, and it was better not to even ask.

But the soldiers of the rebels,

In the past few days, rumors have spread,

"What do you mean, our general?"

"Is he not dead set on taking Xiongguan yet?"

"What are you kidding, if he had this ability, Xiongguan would have been captured a long time ago!"

"I see, he just doesn't give up!"

"Whatever, anyway, let Lao Tzu go on this time, Lao Tzu will definitely shrink at the end. Those people in Xiongguan are as clever as monkeys, and Lao Tzu doesn't want to die at their hands! ”

……

In the tent,

Yang Guang looked at his subordinates and couldn't help but ask:

"Colleagues, do you think we can still attack Xiongguan once?"

As soon as these words came out, the middle-level officers present were stunned.

General, you're too iron, aren't you?

Last time, you just suffered such a big loss, and you don't have a long heart at all?

What is the current situation of our rebel army, what is the morale?

What is the difference between attacking Xiongguan now and giving away people's heads?

As a result, the middle-level generals spoke up one after another to persuade them.

"General, if you stay in Qingshan, you are not afraid of no firewood, and you still have to think long-term about attacking Xiongguan!"

"Yes, General, our morale is low now, and it is not a good strategy to force an attack!"

Yang Guang saw that everyone was unanimously opposed, and he also knew in his heart that he couldn't do anything. So he sighed and said:

"In that case, let's withdraw!"
