Zuo Liangyu's uncle Zuo Hui opened a dart bureau in Yi County, for An Dehai's affairs, and in order to cover people's eyes and ears, Zhao Xiong entrusted the West Wind Dart Bureau to take a short trip.

On the night of January 3, the moon was dark and the wind was high, and many carriages were parked at the gate of the tax warehouse.

Late at night, the cold wind poured at the door of the tax warehouse, and Zhao Xiong stood on the steps of the gate wearing a white hard hat, watching his people busy.

Zuo Liangyu and Liu Sheng wore red hard hats, and the other family leaders wore yellow hard hats.

The torches lit at night and the hard hat on the head are very recognizable.

In Zhao Xiong's opinion, the 3C-certified helmet he took out is much better in protection and easy to identify than the hat that ordinary flood soldiers carry to protect from the sun and rain.

However, these plastic helmets are not as comprehensive as the helmet defense of the Dakang military attaché, and in his eyes, it is better than nothing!

He wears a stab-proof jacket and a military coat.

The black tight-fitting stab-proof suit is better than the full-body leather armor left by Lao Zhao Putong.

Since Zhao Xiong came to Dakang and stayed in the village for three years and practiced martial arts, he felt that it was definitely to die wearing armor in the film and television in the previous life.

He experimented in the village, and he couldn't cut through an old leather armor with a Tang horizontal knife, and the degree of defense really made him feel incredible.

It can be seen that in ancient times, there was armor and no armor, and armor on the battlefield was a big killer in the era of cold weapons.

In the era of swords and guns, there was a huge gap between soldiers with armor and without armor.

Heavy armoured units, especially heavy cavalry, were able to rampage through the battlefield, just like modern tanks. Armor greatly increases the combat effectiveness of an army.

This kind of battlefield heavy weapon can only be mastered by the state.

Although there were no officials convicted of possession of armor in the Dakang Dynasty, the military attachés he knew only had one set of armor.

Even his dead father was only an old full-body armor.

As for the last time he killed someone on a snowy night, it was just a thin cotton coat worn by the bandits.

Now, though, he has ranged weapons.

He carried a freshly baked revolver in his waist, even if the person in front of him was fully armoured, it was just a bullet, and if he couldn't kill him, he would shoot a few more shots.

At this moment, at the door of the tax warehouse, everyone took off their green military coats and wore tight short clothes, and checked them for Zhang Xiucai before leaving the warehouse to carry the silver box to the carriage.

In his opinion, the moon is dark and the wind is high, and the atmosphere is very depressing, and there is a sense of going back to the previous life, and the contractor leads the workers to fight in groups.

A young man, standing among the reeds on the embankment not far away, watched this scene, with only indifference in his eyes.

He looked at the boxes of silver loaded on the carriage, turned around and whispered: "King rat wolf, the day of your meritorious service has arrived today."

Today you are nailed here and count their numbers.

When they set off, they informed me with carrier pigeons! ”

Wang Ratwolf nodded and said in a low voice: "Second master, you saved me, my life is yours, but that Zhao Xiongba is very powerful, are you sure we have to go against him!" ”

Guan Tianpei, looking at Zhao Xiong under the torch, looked at it for a long time, sighed, then turned around and left the reeds, and rowed to the opposite shore in a small boat.

Zhao Xiong seemed to feel that someone was looking at him in the dark, and he raised his eyes to look at the river bank in the distance, and he couldn't see anything in the dark.

It just so happened that An Dehai came over, and he went down the steps to personally lead the team to follow An Dehai, strictly checking one carriage after another to see if there were any mistakes.

In addition to the one or two hundred boxes of silver in the tax storehouse, the southern goods in the twenty ships were not invaluable.

Take a glass mirror the size of the façade, which will cost 1,000 taels of silver in the capital.

If you break it, there is no place to pay for it, and this is not to be sloppy.

According to the calculations of the small officials at the wharf, according to the manpower and carriage equipment of the Xifeng Dart Bureau, ten ships at a time are at full capacity.

It needs to be used about 2~3 times.

From Hanzhuang to Zaozhuang Town, which is thirty miles away, it is a post road, and the distance is not very far, one round trip a day is enough.

Zhao Xiong and An Dehai discussed, and the first time the silver was transported first, and the other southern goods were pushed to the back.

According to the plan, Li Ge, who arrived first, sat at the wharf in Zaozhuang Town and commanded a team of flood soldiers to clean the wharf, leaving Xi Xiaoqi behind the sand boat gang of the sand boats.

It is very strange that the archers of the Inspection Division who no one wants in Zaozhuang Town actually sent goodwill through Li Ge and wanted to take the initiative to provide protection for the dock.

As soon as Zhao Xiong pondered for a while, he told Liu Tongxun to be cautious, and there was no need to inspect near the dock to provide protection.

On the other hand, Zhang sent Li Ge to bring more than 20 personal soldiers to follow the action.

Early in the morning, the fog has just cleared, and the wharf leads to the post road and is crowded.

The people of the West Wind Dart Bureau, those who move things, those who drive carriages, and those who drive carriages, are full of vitality in the clear cold wind.

Most of the darts are benevolent and righteous darts, while the Xifeng darts are mighty darts.

The benevolent dart does not declare force, but only sends a few executioners to walk in front of the dart team, one person shouts darts, and the executioners echo.

The mighty dart to declare is force, often in front of the arrangement of two groups of dart masters, not only to explore the way, but also responsible for shouting darts.

On both sides of the official road from Hanzhuang to Zaozhuang Town, thirty miles away, on one side are the endless reeds on the shore of Weishan Lake, and on the other side are the rolling hills.

Zhao Xiong rode a horse, stood on a high place, and saw at a glance that there were only small fishing boats in the lake, shuttling in the reeds.

He frowned, the boat had been following them from time to time, and it seemed that he had been eyed by the mark of his trip.

Leaving Hanzhuang, after walking ten miles, you entered the hills

The post road is close to the mountain, the mountain is not high, maybe it is often walked, every few miles, there is a tea shop or a pavilion to rest.

Li Ge brought more than 20 family members, and Zhao Xiong's family members totaled more than 80 people.

Now, Li Ge's people, they are all veterans with their mouths closed, some of them are scattered around with red tassel guns, and some of them are holding waist knives, guarding around dozens of carts.

Zhao Xiong rode on a horse and looked around, the post road had not been maintained for a long time, and there were potholes.

In particular, the carriage carrying the silver was very heavy and extremely difficult to walk, and it took more than two hours to walk for more than ten miles.

Zhao Xiong was speechless, no wonder, in ancient times, in wars, the marching speed of infantry units generally ranged from 10-20 kilometers per day.

At noon, I had walked nearly half of the way, and there was a tea shop in front, and the owner of the tea shop, Xifeng Dart Bureau, was very familiar with the people.

The dart carts in front of them began to slow down, and the distance between the cars began to shorten.

"Lord, it's time to rest and rest, feed the horses!

Shall we continue on our way in half an hour? ”

Zhao Xiong asked Zuo Hui, the big boss of the Xifeng Dart Bureau.

"I don't know how to dart, you are fully responsible!"

The big boss Zuo Hui instructed the runners below to park the two dozen carts on the side of the tea shop in an orderly manner.
