Chapter 40 Master Deng steals horses
On the sheep intestine path, the rumble of hundreds of war horses trampling the ground rolled, and a caravan of about 100 people was driving the horses towards the south.
As the Yuan scouts had said, the team driving the horses seemed to be just a caravan.
But if you look closely, it is not difficult to find that these horse-driving people are actually big shoulders and waists, and their appearance is fierce, and they are all battle-hardened people at first glance.
As for the big man in the lead, his appearance is even more rude, especially from his left eye to his jaw There is a deep scar, and he is full of gangsterism, and he is not a good lord at first glance.
At this time, the leading man with a scar on his face was holding a long-handled machete in his hand, and he was beating the horse with a sullen face, and he did not smile, as if there was something extremely disturbing wrapped around his chest, lingering, and not leaving.
Just when the big man was depressed, he saw that behind him, a middle-aged man in a green shirt, elegant appearance, and graceful demeanor slowly stepped forward, and smiled at the man with a scar on his face: "General Gong Du, why is there a different color on his face, not very fast?" Don't you have something on your mind? If you don't mind, why don't you talk to Zhu? ”
The big man known as Gong Du turned his head with a sullen face, and said to the middle-aged Confucian with a rather unhappy face: "Mr. Mi Zhu, it's not that I Gong Du is picky, I and Liu Bi were also great sages and good teachers before they defected to the lord........ Ahem, no, it's a rare fierce general under Zhang Jiao's account, and these brothers under me were all elite divisions born and died in the Yellow Turban Army in the past. The lord is good, not only did he not let us fight, but he let the governor of me procure the birds of the military horses? What kind of job is a general supposed to do? I'm like a groom now, with a smell of horse urine all over my body! How cold and how cold you want to be, Mr. Mi Zhu, you help me evaluate the theory, is this considered a condescending talent? ”
Mi Zhu smiled when he heard this, shook his head and said: "General Gong Du, what you said, you really misunderstood the lord, the lord has fought to the land of you and Ying, if it weren't for you and General Liu Pi to join the assistant, how could you gain a foothold in Runan so quickly?" It's just that if you want to fight against Cao's army, the soldiers, horses, ordnance, and food must all be perfect, and all of them must be deficient, so how can you ignore them? It is precisely because the lord attaches great importance to ordnance and horses, so he has full authority to entrust you to supervise with me, one is that the lord believes in you and me, and the other is that there are many thieves in Runan, if there is no warrior like a general to assist in taking care of it, how can the ordnance and horses purchased be smoothly transported back to Runan City every time? Hehe, General Gong must not take himself lightly. ”
When Gong Du heard this, he blinked his eyes and nodded: "Mi is engaged in this, but there is some truth in it, but I have transported horses and ordnance so many times, and I haven't seen any bandits and grass robbers come to rob them, and my hands and feet are itching out of my bag, and I feel depressed." ”
Mi Zhu sighed secretly when he heard this, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
The dog meat on the board is not on the table!
In the final analysis, this yellow scarf is a group of reckless grass robbers, no matter how you help you, the most taboo thing about escorting horses, weapons, grain and grass is that you are afraid that someone will come to hijack it, this Gong is good, people don't come to rob him, he is uncomfortable, and I don't know if he is cheap.
Muddy one.
Not to mention that Gong Du was depressed, Mi Zhu was helpless, just said that not far in front of the horse team, Yuan Shanghe, Zhang Jaw, Gao Ran and others were ambushed in the grass on both sides, squinting their eyes at the horse team that was coming towards him.
"Two generals, in your opinion, the people of this caravan..... But a caravan? Yuan Shangyan had a deep intention to ask the two generals for their opinions.
Zhang Jaw looked at it quietly for a long time, then shook his head, and lightly spit out two words: "No." ”
"Of course not!" Gao Ran snorted and said: "Look at this group of people, all of them are strong and powerful, but the march is unorganized, as if they are wanton and unrestrained, especially the leader in the front, with scars on his face, fierce eyes, and a murderous aura, I can smell a thief smell from afar, the third son, it's not the last general's nonsense, just these people, pick up their clothes, the whole is a group of yellow turban thieves!" ”
Yuan Shang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he muttered, "In this way, these war horses ..... Wanted? ”
Gao Ran smiled and said fiercely: "I want it!" A must! ”
Zhang Jaw touched his beard, nodded and said: "Eliminate the evil for the people, do not hesitate, do not turn around, do not turn around, and do it!" ”
Yuan Shang made up his mind when he heard this, and clapped his hands and said: "In this case, there are two generals Lao to press the formation for me, and I will wait for my son to go to fetch horses and replenish military supplies." ”
Yuan Shang said that he was about to get up, and he was about to make a move, but he saw a figure hunched over his waist, running hurriedly from behind like a mouse, squatting behind Yuan Shang, and said excitedly: "Wait a minute, take me one, take me one!" ”
The voice came suddenly, without warning, Yuan Shang was so frightened that he suddenly became excited, and turned his head to look, but it was Deng Ai's father, Deng Chang!
This stupid county magistrate squatted behind Yuan Shang with an excited face, clenching two fists, his face was undisguised, and the four big words 'eager to try' were deeply engraved.
Yuan Shang was taken aback by Deng Chang, his heart was not smooth, and he said angrily: "You are silent in the aisle, who do you want to scare to death?" ”
Deng Chang's face was full of treachery, and he looked cheap: "Aren't I afraid of being exposed, and then scaring the prey away." ”
Yuan Shang raised his eyebrows, and said dissatisfiedly: "You are sick, it's not a good thing, what are you messing with?" ”
Deng Chang raised his head with a melancholy face, looked at the blue sky and white clouds with a lonely face, and sighed with a worried face.
"Why is it none of my business, for so many days, I first let you rob the official, and then robbed the grain for the red-clothed thieves in Jiuli Mountain, and now even I have been kidnapped by you...... God has eyes, it's time to let Deng rob others, right? ”
Yuan Shang's face froze when he heard this.......
There is also a psychological imbalance here, the mentality of the ancient people is inevitably too bad, a little mutters all day long, there is really a lack of mental health education.
After a long silence.......
Yuan Shang waved his hand and said to Deng Chang: "General Zhang, General Gao, bother you two to ambush here, wait for me to wait for the formation, pay attention to my instructions, Master Deng will go out with me to play and meet your spiritual needs, remember, don't take an example!" ”
***************************
Gong Du and Mi Zhu's horse team was walking along the dirt road, turning a corner, but saw Gong Du suddenly raise the big knife in his hand, frowned and shouted: "Stop!" ”
The old Yellow Turbans hurriedly took control of their horses and stood still.
Mi Zhu raised his head curiously and looked forward, only to see that on the dirt road in front of him, a middle-aged man with an obscene appearance, dressed in a green robe, shaking a white feather fan, looked up at the sky, fluttering like a fairy, just blocking the way of the horse team.
is so embarrassed, who is it not Deng Chang?
Gong Du's eyes narrowed, and he said with a gloomy smile: "Hehe, I just finished saying that my hands and feet are too itchy, this is really a robbery, but I haven't killed anyone for a few days, and today I just opened the meat with him!" ”
"General Gong is slow, this matter seems to be strange."
Mi Zhu raised his hand to stop the impatient Gong Du, then patted the horse forward, looked at Deng Chang deeply, and then smiled kindly, and clasped his fists on the horse and saluted: "The gentleman in front, I don't know which way of the master, why do you want to stop me and others?" ”
Mi Zhu is graceful and elegant, his manners are polite, and his appearance is good, which completely contrasts with Gong Du and the others behind him, as if he stands out from the crowd, which makes people smack their tongues and admire.
Yuan Shang, who was hiding in secret, couldn't help but nod his head when he saw it, he was a personable and elegant man, but he somehow got mixed up with the group of thieves behind him.
Could it be that now the thieves are all good at IQ, and they all know how to find a military advisor?
Deng Chang stood in the middle of the road, heard Mi Zhu's inquiry, couldn't help but snort and sneered a few times, and raised his voice: "This mountain is my house, this flower is my pestle, this road is blocked by me, if you want to cross this road, leave the horses as collateral, if you are obsessed and don't understand, hum, hum, hum - Lao Tzu killed you to plant trees!" ”
"Poof!"
Yuan Shang, who was not far away, almost vomited blood when he heard this, what is this Deng Chang's mouth made of, what are you talking about.
Obviously he has already decided that the other side is a thief, how can he say it, but it is reversed? We're here to collect the stolen goods, okay?
In this situation, is it a thief on the other side, or are we thieves? Why is it so confusing that I can't even make this position clear!
In the direction of the horse team, led by Gong Du, a group of old Yellow Turban thieves greeted each other with knives, and looked at Deng Chang on the road vigilantly.
Damn, who is this Confucian student? How dare you be so arrogant? Don't look at whose horses it is? Dare to speak boldly?
Before these yellow turban thieves took refuge in Runan, they always took other people's guys, who dared to rob them? Today's out, it's really the first time the big girl has been in the sedan chair.
Mi Zhu was clear in his heart, and after carefully searching for a while, he knew that if the other party was unprepared, he would definitely not dare to hijack his own horse team here.
But when I saw the woods on both sides, I was afraid that there would be an ambush in them!
Thinking of this, I saw Mi Zhu arching his hand at Deng Chang, and said, "I don't know who your surname is, and who is the messenger, dare to rob our horses?" Can you tell us one or two? ”
Deng Chang sneered, copied Yuan Shang's words as they were, and said: "It's good to say, I am Liu Yuzhou in Runan, under the account of Uncle Liu Huang!" Today, I am here, by the edict of the Son of Heaven, and pay the horse here! What if you don't leave the horses? Is it against the will of the Son of Heaven...... Hmph, kill, no forgiveness! ”
"Shhhh
Mi Zhu and Gong both took a deep breath in surprise, stared at Deng Chang with a smug face in disbelief, and said in surprise: "You.... Whose orders do you say you are acting on? ”
Deng Chang snorted coldly and said unhappily: "What's wrong?" What is it about not being able to understand people's words? I said, by the order of the Son of Heaven, the edict of the clothes belt, the emperor's uncle's order, Liu Yuzhou....... Liu Yuzhou doesn't know? Does Liu Xuande know? ”
Yuan Shang was in secret, silently giving a thumbs up, too good, this stupid hat may not be able to learn anything else, learn to bluff people one by one, looking at the expression and demeanor of entering the play, it is obviously not under him, it is quite a bit blue!
Waste can sometimes be useful.
The autumn breeze is blowing, and people's hearts are cold.
Mi Zhu, Gong Du, and the former subordinates of the Yellow Turban Army were all speechless and looked at Deng Chang not far away, looking like a villain, and he looked proud.
Foolish for a long time, silently and ..........
After a long time.
But seeing Gong Du roaring angrily, his face suddenly became flushed, his legs were clamped, and he was dancing towards Deng Chang with a knife, and he roared loudly while running.
"Fuck you! Fucking edicts? I'm going to fucking cut you down today! ”
