Chapter Ninety-Two: Mu Sen's Past
Wang Yong drew a simple map according to Luke's description last night, Wang Yong pointed to the map and said: "Since we have so many cannon fodder, then this time we will bring 800 cannon fodder with us, equip half of them with shields, and let them rush in front." Then it's your turn, Captain Musen, and your goal is to capture both ends of this narrow road, and destroy any bandits who flee. Then Kevin and I took the rest of the people and went in to clean up the remaining bandits inside, and that's about it. ”
Mu Sen didn't expect his task to be so simple, he was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly got up to receive the order, as if he was afraid that Wang Yong would regret it.
Seeing that Ryan and Kevin had no other opinions, Wang Yong stood up and said, "Then so be it, order the meal to be opened now, fill your stomach and prepare to go." ”
Kevin asked in surprise: "Don't you wait for Vani and Cara to them?" Wang Yong shook his head and said, "No need, those bandits inside don't have any powerful characters, and the two of us can kill them all." Seventy militiamen and two hundred cannon fodder were left to watch over the house, and some more people were sent to pick up Lei and them. ”
After a hasty lunch, Wang Yong set off with the mighty 'troops', which was very close to the giant sword's lair, and could be reached on foot for two hours.
There was nothing to say all the way, and when Wang Yong led the team to the woods outside the giant sword's lair, he found many bandits hiding in the woods from a distance, looking out with their heads probed.
Seeing Wang Yong and others approaching, several bandit minions raised a white flag and walked over cautiously.
The bandit walked up to Wang Yong and the others, looked at Xiao Hei in horror, and said with trembling legs: "Our boss asks for negotiations, we know that you are the new lord here, we can't beat you, but we have two thousand hostages in our hands." If you dare to mess around, we will kill those hostages, and if this news gets out, it will have a great impact on your reputation. ”
Wang Yong waved his hand to interrupt the stammering words of the minions, and said with a disapproving expression: "The hostages you are talking about are your slaves, right? I have no obligation to protect the slaves." Xiao Hei also cooperated with Wang Yong and yelled at those bandits at the right time.
Minions saw that the hole cards in their hands didn't care at all, first panicked, and then were so frightened by Xiao Hei's roar, they were so frightened that they knelt on the ground, and it took a long time to recover.
The leading bandit stammered: "Then, then we, then we will resist desperately, and you will also pay a great price at that time." ”
Wang Yong thought about it, there were not many of his own people under him, and if one died, there would be one less, and it would be good if he could solve it without dying. Wang Yong nodded and said, "Okay, I agree to negotiate and ask your boss to come and talk to me." When the minions heard this, they ran back into the woods.
Wang Yong carefully looked at the woods in front of him, and was surprised to find that these tall trees resembled coconut trees, although he had not seen them with his own eyes before, but he often saw them on TV.
The trees also have coconut-like spherical fruits hanging from them, but they are much larger, so Wang Yong is not sure if they are coconut trees or not.
Wang Yong turned his head and asked Ryan, "Do you know what kind of trees these are?"
Ryan looked at the woods, shook his head and said, "I don't know, it seems that this kind of tree is the only one in our empire. But I know that the sap in those spherical things on the tree is delicious. ”
When Wang Yong heard Ryan's answer, he had basically determined that these were coconut trees, and said with a sigh: "There is also this kind of tree in my hometown, we call it the coconut tree, and the spherical fruit is called the coconut." ”
Next, everyone waited and chatted, from coconut trees to food, from men to women, from clothes to beautiful women's figures. During this period, the language used by Wang Yong and others was vulgar and unscrupulous, and Mu Sen nodded again and again when he heard it, feeling that everyone was the same kind of person, and couldn't help but join the ranks of Kan Dashan.
Wang Yong unexpectedly found that Mu Sen, who had a wooden expression, was very good, and he let go after he found that Wang Yong and the others had no shelf.
Mu Sen's arrogance reminded Wang Yong that when he was on Earth before, he and a few buddies drank some wine and bragged about B like this, which made Wang Yong's impression of Mu Sen a lot better.
Wang Yong found that Mu Sen was wearing coarse cloth clothes that had been washed and yellowed, so he couldn't help but ask Mu Sen: "Look like you don't look like a greedy person, why" Wang Yong pointed to the hand crossbow held by Mu Sen's men.
When Mu Sen heard this, his expression changed rapidly, but he felt that Wang Yong was not bad, so he sighed and said: "Hey, there is no way, we people have no background or backing, when I was on the front line, a friend who had a good relationship with me told me that our brigade was going to be sent out as cannon fodder." To be honest, although we don't want to die, if we want to win the war, even if we die in battle, it's nothing, and being a soldier requires a sense of sacrifice. But my friend told me that the commander of the legion told us to die in order to give the other party's general the merit of leading the army in exchange for his son, who had fallen back into the hands of the enemy. Of course we don't want to, but there is nothing we can do, if we run away, not only will we die, but our families will also be affected. Eventually, my friend gave me the idea to pay someone to transfer us off the front line and recommended us here. He said that not only is there a lot of oil and water here, but there is also no danger, and the key is that there is only one brigade of us for border defense here, so we are not afraid of being used as a victim again, and we don't know what is going on if we are sold. I was also very impressed after listening to my friend's introduction, and I thought it was good here, but it took a lot of gold coins to transfer here. After I told my brothers about this, none of us wanted to die for nothing, but we didn't have that many gold coins, and in the end we decided to sell our house and everything together to make money. I made an excuse and secretly sent ten people back to the rear, but fortunately our brigade didn't live far away. When the news got back, our family quickly sold everything of their value, but there were still not enough gold coins. In the end, there was really no way, through the introduction of others, we found a small chamber of commerce, and borrowed 20,000 gold coins at a high interest, which was enough to make up the gold coins. However, our family was withheld by the chamber of commerce as collateral, and they usually did some servant work, and when we paid off the gold coins, when they let it go, they would let our family go. The rest of the matter went well, and by the time we got here, there was a lot more oil and water than we had to go to the battlefield, but it was still not enough to pay off the gold I owed, and I had to accumulate it slowly. But the other day, I received a notice from my superiors that we would have to withdraw our army after the arrival of the lord, but we still had a lot of money left to pay, and if we were to die in battle, our brothers' families would have to be sold as slaves. At that time, we happened to have some dealings with Billy, and he wanted to buy a crossbow, and I thought it was a good opportunity, so I took the risk and sold it to him. Wang Yong listened quietly until Mu Sen finished speaking, Wang Yong glanced at Mu Sen's soldiers, and saw that they all had sad and angry expressions, and he was very convinced.
A squadron leader beside Mu Sen said: "Captain Mu Sen did this for us, in fact, he could have left us alone at that time. Your lord, just let our captain go, I'll fight against this crime. With that, he jumped off his horse and knelt on the ground.
Seeing this, Mu Sen's other subordinates also dismounted and knelt on the ground, and said to Wang Yong with pleading: "Let go of Captain Mu Sen, we will fight against the crime." ”
Mu Sen angrily scolded his subordinates and said, "You bastards, what are you talking about? What did we say before?
Wang Yong looked at the people kneeling on the ground, felt that the expressions of these people did not look fake, and turned his head to look at Ryan. Ryan understood what Wang Yong meant, and nodded to Wang Yong, meaning that it should be true.
Wang Yong saw that Ryan, the old fox, didn't find anything, and there was a chance that it was true, so he said softly: "You all get up, I have no right to control your sins, your affairs have nothing to do with me, and I can't control it." Then he turned his head and squeezed his eyebrows at Mu Sen, who gratefully said 'thank you' to Wang Yong.
Those stupid soldiers who were still kneeling on the ground didn't understand what Wang Yong meant, and thought that Wang Yong didn't want to let go of Mu Sen, their faces showed sadness and anger, and they had the urge to kill people.
After several lieutenants under Mu Sen came back, they thanked Wang Yong again and again, and those stupid soldiers came back to their senses and scratched their ears and cheeks in embarrassment.
After Mu Sen's men thanked Wang Yong one by one, Wang Yong wanted to ask Mu Sen how many gold coins he needed, and was ready to help these poor soldiers, and also wanted to keep them to serve him.
At this moment, five people came out of the woods, each on a horse, and walked unhurriedly towards Wang Yong's side, and stopped about a hundred meters away from Wang Yong and them.
Wang Yong smiled when he saw their move, he didn't expect these bandits to be so cautious. Wang Yong just snorted at this, and leaned over to those with his little black toe in a high-spirited manner.
Kevin followed Wang Yong over, and Ryan gave a few words to one of the cavalrymen behind him, and then followed. Mu Sen was very grateful to Wang Yong and wanted to follow him to protect his safety, but after he saw the imposing Xiao Hei, he gave up this idea.
The bandits who came to negotiate were a little uneasy when they saw Xiao Hei, and they all had the urge to turn around and run away, but under the scolding of the leading bandit, they barely quieted down.
Wang Yong came directly to the bandits, glanced at them contemptuously, and didn't want to talk nonsense with them, so he said straight to the point: "Say, what conditions? Actually, I really don't care about how many more people die." ”
Wang Yong also learned this from TV, when negotiating, the more you care about something, the more you can't expose it to the opponent, otherwise the opponent will seize this weakness and make you pay a greater price.
When the bandits heard this, their expressions were a little unnatural, and the bandit who took the lead said: "I am Henry, the deputy head of the Giant Sword Bandit Group, and I won't hide it from you, our head and the other two deputy heads have gone out to do errands, and now I am in charge here, if I cooperate with you, I can catch them all when they come back, which will save the adults a lot of trouble." Also, our most valuable things are in a magician's space ring, and those things are your property, if you let that magician run away, the adult's loss will be great. ”
Seeing that Wang Yong and the three of them were still expressionless, Henry didn't care about these at all, so he had to continue: "My condition is that I hope to serve the lord in the future, and my brothers and I can help you a lot, and we will definitely not let you down." After speaking, Henry stared at Wang Yong, hoping that something could be seen in his expression.
