Chapter 232: Dig a pit and bury yourself
Gao Cang saw that in an instant, the team led by Shao Xi slaughtered all the soldiers in the camp, and also commanded his subordinates to deal with the aftermath in an orderly manner, and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. Unexpectedly, the insatiable and narrow-minded Kyoto official in the eyes of himself and Zhao Huajun was such a decisive, cold-blooded and cruel person.
Shao Xi turned around and glanced at Gao Cang, and said with a smile: "What? Tall adults have never seen murder? Or have you never seen so many people killed at once? Now you should believe that I am a man of my word, right? You are lucky that because you have been useful to me, you have a chance for me to forgive you. Now that you have done the first thing, you are not suitable to be present for the next thing, I asked Lao Wu to accompany you to hide in the warehouse, and it is best not to look out when you hear the sound of fighting, I am afraid that you will not be able to accept that kind of scene. ”
Shao Xi's words were like a cold knife, the blade of the knife slashed against Gao Cang's neck, making him feel that his life would be ended by this knife at any time, and this fear made him feel chills in his heart.
At this time, he didn't doubt at all that Shao Xi had said before that he only needed to move his fingers to kill him, even if he destroyed the Zhao family, I am afraid it would only be a gesture.
Gao Cang's face was pale at this time, his head was covered with sweat, and he didn't dare to answer Shao Xi's words, but just respectfully bowed to Shao Xi to show his submission.
Looking at Shao Xi's harmless smile in front of him, Gao Cang felt that he was so terrifying for the first time. With just a flick of his fingers between talking and laughing, dozens of lives disappeared in his hands, and he seemed to be just doing an ordinary thing. He was deeply afraid that he had offended such a person, and believed that the Zhao family would also regret it because he had offended such a person.
Lao Wu took Gao Cang to hide in one of the warehouses, and let Lao Wu stay with him not because he was afraid that Lao Wu might be injured, nor did he let Lao Wu protect him, but let Lao Wu watch him.
A person who can betray the Zhao family, of course, can also betray himself, Shao Xi will never believe in a traitor with no bottom line.
The reason why Shao Xi believes in Gao Guang is because Gao Guang has no way out and can only fall to his side, but more importantly, until now, Gao Guang has refused to tell him who his employer is, and has always adhered to his bottom-line principle as an assassin, so such a person Shao Xi can choose to believe him.
In fact, there is some kind of tacit understanding between Shao Xi and Gao Guang, even if Gao Guang doesn't say it, Shao Xi knows who the employer is, and Gao Guang also knows very well that Shao Xi knows who the employer is, but Gao Guang will not tell Shao Xi directly, but chooses to agree to testify on behalf of Shao Xi to identify the Zhao family.
In other words, he can tell others, but he can't tell Shao Xi, even if Shao Xi can hear it when he stands next to him, he won't say it to Shao Xi.
It's a bit self-deceiving, but a lot of things in this world are just deceiving themselves.
……
……
It was calm for a long time, although the camp in the arsenal could hear the sound of horns and war drums from four directions, and occasionally the shouting and killing sounds from the distance could be faintly heard, but the military arsenal had been very calm here, Shao Xi was even a little impatient, which was completely different from the scene he expected that the military arsenal was surrounded by people, and he fought desperately with the soldiers of the hundred-man team, struggling to support and protect the military warehouse.
This is a little embarrassing, I looked very smart before, and I personally led the team to sneak attack the military depot, so I naturally regarded this place as extremely important.
I don't know if they were red-eyed over there and forgot to get their armor, or if they were beaten so badly that they couldn't come at all, or if this group of rebels simply forgot that there was such a thing?
But when he thought that no one would pay attention to him at all, Shao Xixin said, is it really good for you to do this? Do you respect me like that?
Shao Xi sat on a stone in the camp, depressed to death.
I don't know how long I sat like this, but suddenly I heard the soldiers at the camp gate shouting, "Who is it? Not allowed to go near the arsenal without permission? Otherwise, you won't be killed! ”
Shao Xi became excited all of a sudden, and jumped up and ran towards the camp gate, thinking that there was finally a fight now, and it would not be so embarrassing for people to ask him after the encirclement and suppression.
But before the others ran to the camp gate, they heard someone outside the camp gate shouting, "Lord Shao is here?" I'm Sun Jue! My side has completed the encirclement and suppression, and no one has been missed, so I hereby inform Lord Shao. ”
Shao Xi's footsteps towards the camp gate stopped suddenly, what is this guy shouting? Have they all been encircled and suppressed? Okay guys, that's too fast, isn't it? Besides, you can't do anything! Why don't you keep two of them, or won't it seem like I'm too non-existent? How embarrassing it is now!
But it's good that people are here to find themselves, so you can't just stop seeing people because of this vanity, right? Shao Xi regrets it now! I knew that I would let others do this work, wouldn't it be more powerful and domineering to charge and kill the enemy by myself?
Walking quickly to the camp gate, I saw that the soldiers of the hundred-man team were opening the camp gate, Sun Jue entered the camp with his team, and there was a group of rebels who were captured alive behind them, all of them were not lightly injured, depressed, and had no fighting spirit.
As soon as he saw Sun Jue, he laughed, bowed to Shao Xi, and kept praising him: "My lord is really clever, this group of thieves really has an attempt to break through and come to the military depot, fortunately, my lord asked us to divide our troops to outflank, and they were intercepted halfway." Now the northeast thief army garrison has been completely uprooted by us, this gang of thieves has not missed a single one, either dead or wounded, and all the living have been captured by us, this all depends on the strategy of the adults, Lord Shao is really Wen Taowu strategy, the dragon and phoenix among the people. ”
"Uh-huh, ha-ha......"
Shao Xi really couldn't tell whether Sun Jue's praise of himself was sincere, or was he mocking himself? After a big victory, he took a small team of people to fight a little here, and now people have to take the credit to themselves, no matter how they sound it, it feels like they are sarcastic.
"Lord Shao, my side has completed the encirclement and suppression, and the sergeants under my command are cleaning up the battlefield. Now there are a lot of captured wounded soldiers in their hands, and it is really inconvenient to take them to support other directions, the lower official plans to temporarily place these wounded soldiers here with the adults, and trouble the adults to take care of them, and the lower officials can also lead the troops to support the encirclement and suppression of the other three counties, after all, people come to help us, so we can't stand idly by! ”
Shao Xi heard it, what? I'm Nima! You use me here as a prisoner of war camp and a camp for wounded soldiers, don't you? Boy! Let me show you the wounded soldiers, and if you go out to grab credit again, don't I want to lose face?
was about to open his mouth to object, but he didn't want Sun Jue to suddenly "plop" and kneel in front of him, so frightened that Shao Xi almost ran away without wiping his head.
The heart said, I took the wrong medicine! How can you talk well and suddenly fall to your knees?
"Lord Shao, today's war is so impressed by Lord Shao. I think that at the beginning, when Lord Shao first came to Yujiang City, Xia Guan and his brother-in-law once misunderstood the adult, thinking that the adult was also a corrupt official like Zhao Huajun, but he didn't want the adult to be so far-sighted and act a good show to confuse the Zhao family. Later, he personally came to the door to discuss with my brother-in-law about the extermination of the Zhao family, Lord Shao is so open-minded, he doesn't care about the disrespect we gave to you before, which really makes the lower officials admire. Especially in this encirclement and suppression of these thieves, the adults laid out in advance, and they were able to interlock with each other, so that our army's encirclement and suppression operations were so smooth, and the lower officials really admired the adults. Now, Lord Shao only led more than 100 people deep into the enemies on all sides and took this vital arsenal, what kind of bravery and wisdom is this? If the command is determined, the encirclement and suppression will inevitably be a complete victory. ”
After speaking, Sun Jue really kowtowed.
Shao Xi was a little numb by Sun Jue so suddenly, where is this? Isn't there too much inner drama in your guy? I didn't think about it that much, you actually held me up so high, you kid is hearted, aren't you?
However, seeing Sun Jue kowtowing so loudly, it didn't seem to be hypocritical. Shao Xi couldn't say anything else, so he hurriedly stepped forward and stretched out his hand to help Sun Jue up.
"It's over! Master Sun, you have said a little too much, where is there something in the sky that you said is like this, but there is nothing on the ground? It's just that it's all improvised, and it's not as mysterious as Lord Sun said. Speaking of which, it is really not easy for Lord Cui and Lord Sun to endure humiliation for so many years, and this encirclement and suppression is also commanded by Lord Sun, I am just taking advantage of it, the people who really have merit to Yujiang County are Lord Cui and Lord Sun, and this official is at most a helper, but I dare not take credit. ”
When Sun Jue heard Shao Xi say this, he became even more excited, and said with a nymphomaniac look: "I can't imagine that Master Shao is so humble and obscure, and the lower officials are even more admired. In the future, my lord has orders, and my brother-in-law and I will be the first to look forward to Lord Shao, and we are willing to saddle the front and back of Lord Shao. ”
As soon as Shao Xi heard this, he couldn't let him boast anymore, and if he continued to boast, he would have to float to the sky, so let him go quickly!
Nowadays, it is found that people who speak ill of each other can make people feel uncomfortable, but people who are full of beautiful words sometimes make people feel unbearable.
"Master Sun, you can place these captured wounded soldiers here with me, and we will take care of them. You immediately lead your troops and horses to support the other three counties, and you must completely annihilate the enemy army and completely eliminate the henchmen of the rebels in Yujiang County. ”
Sun Jue stood up and bowed to Shao Xi, and replied respectfully: "My subordinates will obey Lord Shao's orders and swear to completely annihilate the enemy. ”
"Hmmm! This official is here to wish Lord Sun another new meritorious service, and wait for the good news of Lord Sun. ”
"Lord Xie Shao!"
After speaking, Sun Jue left all the captured wounded soldiers of the rebels in the military warehouse camp, and rushed to the battlefield in Liantai County in the northwest with his headquarters soldiers and horses.
Shao Xi is depressed! It's the first time I've been praised so depressed, and it's clear that I'm a soy sauce maker now, but I'm said to be a person who coordinates the overall situation, long-term planning, and cleverly devised a layout.
The whole thing was designed by himself, Shao Xi didn't object to this statement, but it was all rushed there step by step, how could there be any advance layout and careful planning? Even he didn't believe it!
As in front of him, if he had known that he would become the head of the prisoner of war camp and the wounded barracks, he would not have come here to kill him!
Alas! Does this count as digging a pit and burying yourself?
