Chapter 5 Collaboration with the Enemy
At night, Yang Guang pretended to be drunk, and now he is pulling Yang Yichen and Qin Qiong to talk at night, and Yuan Tiantian is waiting behind Yang Guang.
"Qin Qiong, let's talk about today's harvest."
Qin Qiong's face is flushed now, he is a bold person, drinking with this group of villagers, basically no one refuses, this character is the appearance of a good man in the rivers and lakes, he is not very old, the amount of alcohol is surprisingly good, after drinking, although the wine is on his face, he is still sober.
Qin Qiong opened his mouth with a mouthful of wine: "His Royal Highness the King of Jin, I drank with this group of people, I told you about it before, and then I got to know it in depth, and two of them seemed to have something to do with the mountain bandits called the Liu family." ”
"What is the Liu family?"
"The big merchants who operate trade in Shuozhou City, the shopkeeper's surname is Liu, called Liu Kuang, who has been in Shuozhou City for many years, listen to their meaning, it seems that this Liu family has something to do with the Yiye Tan Buddha Kingdom, I drank some wine with the two of them, and the two of them drank badly, so they told me that they had worked in the Liu family, and I saw that Liu Kuang had a connection with the people of the Yiye Tan Buddha Kingdom."
The two talked, but after drinking, he said bluntly, I don't know whether it is true or not, Yang Guang said: "Tomorrow I will take people to suppress the bandits, you and these two people along the way, and try to get useful information as much as possible, including how they confirmed that the person Liu Kuang contacted was a person from the Yiye Tan Buddha Kingdom, and what was the specific relationship between Liu Kuang and the people from the Yi Ye Tan Buddha Kingdom." ”
"Yes, Your Highness."
Early in the morning of the second day, Yang Guang showed the image of the rich second generation again, decorating his horses with extreme luxury, and couldn't help but sigh: "I've been together for a long time, and I still learn from my eldest brother." ”
Yuan Tiantian pouted: "Your Highness, your arrogant and domineering appearance, I don't look like you're acting." ”
"You still haven't seen me as usual?"
"Normally, it's like it's hidden."
"Don't be poor, be careful with my mouth."
The group set off, and after passing the Yanmen Pass, the team went to the direction guided by the second king of the party who was caught.
After walking for two hours, Yang Guang ordered to rest in the mountains and forests, and said with a scolding in his mouth: "This mountain forest is too difficult to walk, and the king's buttocks hurt, so he can rest and rest." ”
The efficiency of stop-and-go is very low, but the townsmen are happy, according to the efficiency of this highness, they may not be able to find the mountain bandits for more than ten days, and if they can't find it, they have to go back, and they can eat and drink together, and they can make money, so they should come out for a spring outing.
While resting, Qin Qiong walked to the two people who gave him the message yesterday, took the water and handed it to the two, and said arrogantly: "Two brothers, drink some water first." ”
The two of them had a good relationship with Qin Qiong, so they took it over and said: "Little brother Qin Qiong, you are doing things by His Royal Highness King Jin, you are so close, and the treatment is good, you and I are so close to each other, you and I are so close to each other, you will have to bring the two of us more in the future." ”
"The two brothers laughed, I was lucky to serve His Highness's door, His Royal Highness really didn't treat his subordinates and said, don't look at my young age, I bought a house in Daxing City with the money given by His Highness, you know Daxing City, our capital city of Dasui, the imperial city is grand, splendid, and I have to marry two daughters-in-law in two years."
Qin Qiong said that the two of them were yearning, of course this was not what Qin Qiong thought of himself, he was upright, this passage was thought of by Yang Guang and Yuan Tiantian, in order to say it naturally, he practiced for a long time last night.
"Come on, little brother Qin Qiong, tell us what kind of place Daxing City is."
Qin Qiong only stayed in Daxing City for a few days, but he described the prosperity of Chang'an City in the most simple words, and the two brothers who listened to it were even more yearning.
"Little brother Qin Qiong, do you think the two of us can follow His Royal Highness to Daxing City, in this Shuozhou fart big place, birds don't, how can there be any future, I have been here since I was born, I have been mixed for more than 20 years, I have long been bored, if it weren't for the parents and brothers at home, I ran out, or I followed King Jin to mix the most meat."
"Come on, you have no way out, you have to work hard everywhere."
"That's why I asked His Royal Highness the King of Jin if he would accept us, I have fought the Turks, and the last time the Turks came, I also held a gun for several rounds of fighting."
The two of them chattered to themselves, and Qin Qiong interrupted the two: "His Royal Highness the King of Jin is a person who loves talents, if the two brothers can help the King of Jin, His Royal Highness the King of Jin will definitely consider it." ”
The two glanced at each other and said, "Little Brother Qin Qiong, you help us report to His Royal Highness the King of Jin, we have news about the Yiye Tan Buddha Kingdom and report it to His Highness, but don't let others see it." ”
Qin Qiong responded in one bite.
After giving the news to Yang Guang, Yang Guang was not in a hurry to see the two, but said: "When you camp at night, let the two of you stay close to me, and wait until everyone is asleep before bringing them to see me." ”
In the afternoon, accompanied by Yang Guang's complaints about the slow march in the mountains and forests, he didn't go far to find a place to rest, Yang Guang also took people to the mountains to hunt rabbits, barbecue meat at night to eat, it was completely a kind of autumn outing, not a bandit at all, and the atmosphere of cooking wine around the stove at night was not lively.
Everyone was full of wine and food, and began to fall asleep, and Yang Yichen personally led people to keep vigil.
It was only in the middle of the night that the two brothers were taken to Yang Guang's tent, which was surrounded by soldiers, guards, and watching for restless people at night.
"Two strong men, I don't know the names yet."
"Grass people Ma Yu, grass people Ma Fang, I have seen His Royal Highness the King of Jin."
The two are cousins of the same race and have an excellent relationship.
"Qin Qiong told me that you two have news to tell me?"
The two brothers glanced at each other and said with a smile: "The two of us heard that Qin Qiong's little brother said that His Highness is very admirable, so we want to be able to serve His Highness, know some news about the gang of bandits in the Yiye Tan Buddha Kingdom, and think about reporting to His Highness, so that His Highness can look at it differently, and we also want to go to Daxing City to see what the capital of Dasui is like." ”
The two said bluntly, Yang Guang was not interested in such a little person, but for the sake of intelligence, he still said: "This king has always been fair in life and work, and the intelligence is useful, and this king should be greatly rewarded, and when he fights bandits, he can contribute and make meritorious contributions, and this king will take you to Daxing City to have a look, and you can be my personal guard in the future." ”
Yang Guang went down with a big cake, and the two brothers ate it deliciously, so it started.
"His Royal Highness the King of Jin, there is a merchant surnamed Liu in Shuozhou City, named Liu Kuang, who is a big man in our local area, and many businesses in the city belong to him, and our two brothers have done things under him before."
"He asked us to transport a few truckloads of things that we don't know where they came from from Shuozhou City to the designated place in the pass, and we didn't know what was inside, and when we passed through the customs, we showed the soldiers guarding the pass the token, and the soldiers didn't check it, and the two of us transported the things to the designated place and left, and didn't tell who the person in the joint was."
"This job is not thin every day, at first the two of us did it happily, but Ma Fang was curious, when we did it for a month, Ma Fang still couldn't help but open it and look at what was in the car."
"There was beef, mutton, rice and noodles, and clothes, and even a few scimitars and armor."
"The two of us didn't know what it was for, so we hid to see who the joint was, and then a few monks came, and we learned that Liu Kuang had been asking us to send supplies to the bandit monks and soldiers of the Yiye Tan Buddha Country, which scared us."
"Although our brothers said that they had never read a book, they still had a clear distinction between good things, these bandits burned, killed and looted, and did the most hateful things, and those scimitars and armor were still the goods of the Turks, we hated the Turks the most, and we didn't dare to transport goods anymore from that day on, so we found an excuse to shirk it, and we didn't dare to report to the official, and we couldn't afford to provoke the Liu family."
One is that they can't afford to provoke the Liu family, and the other is that the goods can enter the customs so easily, obviously there are people in Yanmen Pass, and they dare not say it, now they are looking at a big official, and they only take the risk to open their mouths when they want to be prosperous and rich.
Yang Guang didn't expect to reap such a big surprise, if the situation is true, it is equivalent to investigating all the causes and consequences of the bandits obtaining Turkic weapons and equipment, and they had no clue two days ago, but today they understand in just a few words.
"Let Yang Yichen come in every day."
After Yang Yichen came in, Yang Guang whispered a few words to him, told him the cause and effect of the incident, and asked him to bring someone back tomorrow to check on this Liu Kuang, it is very likely that this Liu Kuang is the person who trades with the Turks, and also brought a message to Yang Shuang, there are definitely people in the Yanmen Pass garrison who have problems, starting from the guards of the city gate who changed guards.
"Your Highness, if I take someone away tomorrow, will you be here?"
"I've got my own back-up arrangement, it's fine."
"Okay."
After arranging the matter, Yang Guang said to the two brothers: "Here is 50 taels of silver, this is a reward for you to give intelligence, and there are other rewards after the intelligence is verified, and you are now my Yang Guang's subordinates, but you can't make a noise, you continue to lurk in the crowd, and report to Qin Qiong if you have any new directions, understand?" ”
The two brothers, with 50 taels of silver, are grateful to Dade, for such a reward, the two of them are very useful, they are ordinary people, and they can earn money that they can't earn for a few years by giving a little information, don't follow Yang Guang, who will you follow.
Early the next morning, Yang Yichen returned with his troops first, and there was not much way to go into battle lightly, Yang Guang gave him the reason that his armor had fallen in the city, and it was not surprising that the absurd prince made such a ridiculous move.
The team continued to move forward, Yang Guang was leisurely and leisurely along the way, walking very slowly, and the team was exposed to the mountains and forests, which was very obvious.
When walking through a woodland, there was a sudden movement in the forest, and a figure jumped down from a tree, and said in a panic: "Run, there are monks and soldiers in ambush ahead." ”
The panicked person was none other than the ranger Zhou Wu he had seen before.
I have created a subscription group, and those who have not added the group can add it
