On the way back for everyone, the side said worriedly: "Brother Liu, I think you agreed to this matter hastily!" ”

Liu Haojia said: "Oh, why do you say that, Brother Shang? ”

Shang Bin said: "Huang Bantou's subordinates are easy to deal with! It's okay for them to oppress the common people on weekdays, but if they really do it, they can't beat us! Especially that writer is definitely not our opponent! But I'm afraid that there will be moths from the people's army! ”

Liu Haojia said: "What moths can they produce? ”

Shang Bin said: "Although the People's Army and the Fifth Military Battalion are two sets of people, they are familiar with each other. I'm worried that they will invite good hands from the Fifth Army Camp to fight against us, and our brothers won't be able to stand it! ”

Shang Bin said: "Yes, I'm just worried about this!" You must know that there are many people in the barracks who are still very brave and good at fighting, and if they really invite good hands, we are really not enough to see! ”

Liu Haojia smiled and said, "Don't worry, two brothers, I already have a plan!" ”

Wang Hongfeng said: "Then what are your plans? ”

Liu Haojia beckoned the two of them to come over, and then whispered a few words. When he finished speaking, Shang Bin immediately said loudly: "That's not good, if the above blames it, something big will happen!" ”

Wang Hongfeng also said: "Yes, this is not a joke! ”

Liu Haojia said confidently: "Don't worry, two brothers, nothing will happen!" If something happens, I'll take it all in, little brother! ”

Shang Bin wanted to say something, but was stopped by Liu Haojia and said, "Brother Shang, don't say any more, you just believe me!" In addition, you two can help me pick out a hundred brothers who dare to fight in the past two days, and then you don't show up, and I'll do the rest! ”

Shang Bin and the others saw that Liu Haojia insisted on his opinion, so he could only agree. And things were just as Shang Bin and Wang Hongfeng expected, when they were on the road, Huang Bantou and Li Zongqi kept talking in a low voice. And the two of them didn't go home separately, but went to Huang Bantou's house for the night.

Early the next morning, two well-dressed people bought two jars of old wine on the street and went straight out of the city. They didn't go far before they came to a small village. This small village may not seem to be prosperous, but it covers a large area and has only a few scattered fields.

That's why. It is because this village basically relied on the military camp to appear. Most of the people in this village are military dependents, and these people gather together to form a village-like gathering place. There are many similar gathering places around Kyoshi. But in a gathering place like this, which can be close to the existence of the barracks, it is generally inhabited by officers of all sizes. A little farther away is where the families of the soldiers gather.

After the two of them walked into the village, Huang Bantou looked around with some curiosity, while Li Zongqi looked like an acquaintance. When he saw Huang Bantou's appearance, he casually asked, "What, you haven't been to this place, Brother Huang?" ”

Huang Bantou said: "Don't say it, I really haven't been to this place!" The yamen in this place can't control it, even if something happens, it's solved internally, and we can't use it, so naturally we haven't been here. ”

At that moment, a group of small children screamed and whizzed by. Huang Bantou's eyes kept watching the children disappear around the corner of the house before he said: "It seems that the army is having a good life, these little babies are all strong and strong!" ”

Li Zongqi sneered and said, "Brother Huang, you think too much!" What is this place? No matter how big or small you live here, you will have an official character, and your life will naturally be free! In the future, if I have the opportunity to lead you to see the places where ordinary soldiers gather, you will know what bad luck is! ”

Huang Bantou said with great interest: "So, the situation of empty salaries in the army is very serious? ”

Li Xiaoqi smiled and said, "Brother Huang, you have to face endless things every day in the yamen, so the servants and helpers are indispensable. But now that the dynasty has not fought for more than a hundred years, those barracks have almost been empty! Not to mention anything else, almost three floors of these five barracks are empty, and it is difficult for the remaining soldiers to get full salaries! That's it, and they have to obey the orders of their superiors to do their work. If you're lucky, you'll get some money, but if you're unlucky, you won't get anything! ”

Huang Bantou nodded when he heard this: "I know this, a lot of work in the Beijing Division is done by soldiers in the Beijing camp. The employer's money is not less, but it seems that it has been ignored by the officials! ”

Li Zongqi said: "In fact, the soldiers in the Beijing camp are quite lucky, and it is not difficult to mix food and clothing. Soldiers in other places have a bath of sin! ”

Huang Bantou said with a smile: "Then tell me, a member of the fifth team of the general flag, how much space have you eaten?" ”

Li Zongqi laughed a few times and said, "Then tell me, how many merchants do you knock on every year and how many white ducks do you slaughter?" ”

Speaking of which, the two looked at each other and smiled, and no one brought up the topic anymore. Then, as soon as they turned the corner, they came to the front of a house. Since the village was inhabited by all military officers, no one farmed. And there are a lot of people living in clusters, so the yard of this village is not large. However, the courtyard wall is much higher than that of the villagers.

Li Zongqi stepped forward and knocked on the courtyard door and shouted loudly: "Is Qian Baihu at home?" ”

After he shouted twice, he heard a woman's voice in the courtyard say, "Who is it?" ”

Li Zongqi hurriedly said: "Li Changyou, who came down from the People's Army, has visited his home before!" ”

The woman in the courtyard then said loudly, "Wait a while, I'll go and report to the master." ”

Hearing the footsteps inside, Li Zongqi said in a low voice: "It seems that I am at home, I guess I didn't wake up with a hangover last night!" ”

Huang Bantou nodded and didn't make a sound. He didn't know this Qian Baihu well, so he didn't want to cause any trouble.

After another half a pillar of incense, the door opened with a "clang", and a strong man was draped in a blue cloth, revealing his chest full of heart hair, and looked out with a tired face. When he saw Li Bantou, he squeezed his glasses hard to see the two people outside the door. Then he yawned and said, "It's you, come in first!" ”

When his gaze turned to the old wine that the two of them were carrying, his eyes immediately brightened. He let the two of them sit down with Zhengtang, took the towel handed over by the maid, and wiped it on his face in a daze. While he was wiping his face, the maid pulled his loose hair into a bun. So when he got up and put on his belt, the whole person looked much cleaner.
