Pei Zheng glanced back at the lobby, with a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, and walked leisurely in the direction of the camp.

The big people discuss things, and the small people do things, and this has been the case since ancient times.

Pei Zheng went straight to the martial arts arena of the scout camp camp, picked up a thick and long mallet, and slammed it on a gong.

"When~"

The crisp and loud sound instantly spread throughout the camp, and the scouts who were sheltering from the cold in the barracks and doing some small physical and mental pleasure activities poked their heads out and looked out.

Pei Zheng was angry and shouted: "All the brothers of the second team of the scout camp are assembled, and the gong is used as a trumpet, and those who do not ring for fifteen will be punished." ”

The entire camp suddenly fell silent, until Pei Zheng rang the gong again and shouted, "One ......"

In an instant, half of the soldiers in the barracks could not sit still, some were dressed, some were lifting trousers, some were snatching shoes, and they were busy making a mess.

When the fifth ring, the first person rushed out of the barracks with a shout, panting and running in front of Pei Zheng.

At the tenth ring, the second team, in addition to the ten people who were on duty on the city wall and went out to investigate the enemy's situation, forty scouts lined up in four columns under the leadership of their respective commanders, standing tall in the martial arts arena, and a solemn and murderous atmosphere arose, which made people daunting.

Pei Zheng dropped the mallet, his eyes swept over the resolute faces, a look of satisfaction appeared on his face, and he said loudly: "Yes, all the staff will be here within ten rings, the old rule, I will invite the brothers to eat meat tonight, and the first one to arrive is enough." ”

Without waiting for the soldiers to cheer, Pei Zheng changed his words and said sharply: "But now let's get down to business first, cheer me up and listen carefully." ”

"No"

The scouts replied in unison, with a bright smile on their faces, and it was in vain that they hurried to run away, and there was meat to eat again in the evening.

The first scout to arrive squinted and smiled like a flower.

Pei Zheng cleared his throat and said in a deep voice, "I just went to the General's Mansion to earn an errand for the brothers. ”

"Brethren know that I have always been a man who likes to speak straightforwardly, and this mission will select five of you to go out of the city with me in the wind and snow, and if you are not lucky, you may lose your life. ”

"The corresponding reward is very rich, those who are selected to participate in this mission will be rewarded with twenty taels, those who successfully complete the task will be rewarded with fifty taels, and those who are unfortunately killed will receive an additional hundred taels of silver. ”

"There is a way to seek wealth and danger, after I finish speaking, which of you participates and who does not?"

Zhao Gu chose Pei Zheng to be the guide of the mission, and he couldn't shirk it and could only respond, but he had fifty scouts under his command, and five out of fifty chose it, which meant that he could give them a chance to choose.

Pei Zheng asked himself if he was a good person, but he thought he was a person with a bottom line and principles, and he had to ask if he was willing to let others exchange his life for wealth.

Ahem, of course, if you don't want to, Pei Zheng still has many ways to make people will, that's another story.

It turned out that Pei Zheng was thinking too much, and these scouts set off a commotion.

"Head, choose me and choose me, I have the best equestrian skills, I can fight and run. ”

"Head, I will release dark arrows, with strong poison, and seal my throat when I see blood, it is necessary to kill people and set fires. ”

"Head, I can cook, beef, mutton and horse meat, fire roast and water stew, take me with your old man and don't worry about hunger. ”

"Head, do you lack someone who pinched his shoulders and beat his back to warm the bed?"

"Roll ......"

......

The forty-man stood there with a blushing neck and tried his best to recommend himself, if it weren't for Pei Zheng's usual majesty, he would have to pounce.

The monthly salary of an ordinary soldier is only two taels of silver, and he has twenty taels for a trip, and he gets fifty taels for successfully completing a task.

With ten times or twenty times the income at every turn, who is not tempted?

As for the danger of life?

Which one of the people who eat military rations in the border city is not in danger of life?

Hiding in the city may be killed by random arrows, going out to investigate the enemy may be hacked to death, and anyone will die if the city is broken, it is better to earn more money while you are alive now.

One day because he was old or injured and couldn't stay in the army, he used silver to buy a few more acres of land and spend the rest of his life.

Well, it's a bit of a stretch, Pei Zheng finally picked five with a skill after a while of screening.

The riding skills are good to pick three, which is convenient for fast delivery of messages.

I picked two of those who can cook, which can ensure the endurance of the team.

Pei Zheng, who is proficient in assassination, didn't ask for any of them, their main task was to lead the way, and the possibility and significance of participating in the war was actually not great.

To be precise, from the moment the mission entered the territory of Great Xia, the target of the pursuers was only one - the prince of the steppe king.

As long as the prince of the grassland king dies, and then it is publicized everywhere, the treacherous black cauldron can be detained on the head of Great Xia.

The relationship between Great Xia and the Golden Horde will directly change from the suzerainty and the subject state to the sworn enemy.

No matter how much the newcomer Yu Mondo wants to cling to Great Xia, and learns that Proton has been killed, he will send troops south in the spring of next year, and there is no possibility of maneuvering.

So if there is an enemy that even the mission can't stop, let alone adding Pei Zheng, even if Pei Zheng takes the entire scout battalion, it is estimated that it will not play a role.

What's more, the scout camp is the most proficient assassin than Pei Zheng, what can he do, how can he trouble others.

The five people who were selected stood behind Pei Zheng with smiles on their faces.

......

In the afternoon, Zhao Laosan knocked on Pei Zheng's door again: "The general ordered me to inform you that the mission will leave for the south tomorrow, so that you can prepare early, don't make a mistake." ”

Pei Zheng was surprised and said, "Tomorrow, the city that the mission only entered yesterday, won't it take a few more days to repair it?"

Zhao Laosan smiled bitterly and said: "The general tried his best to keep it, but people didn't appreciate it, so they had to insist on leaving tomorrow." ”

"Don't talk so much, hurry up and pack your things, you and I can't afford to mess with those big guys. ”

Pei Zheng couldn't help but be a little speechless, the idea of the mission was not difficult to guess, it was nothing more than to want to be quick and fast, and accelerate the escape from the Northwest Road before the other party reacted.

This idea is not bad, but it is somewhat inappropriate for the current situation.

If the pursuers did not know the whereabouts of the mission, Pei Zheng 100% agreed with the mission's approach.

But the other party was obviously chasing after him, and the speed of the mission was so slow, there was a high probability that there was an ambush ahead.

To put it mildly, you can't escape if you go south sooner or later, so it's better to rest for a few more days and adjust your state to the best.

The guards are also mortal bodies, and it is impossible to be hunted down for so long without being tired.

Thinking about it, Pei Zheng couldn't change anything, he just sighed and said: "The third brother replied to the general, just say that I know, and I will never delay the big thing." ”

Zhao Laosan smiled and said: "Well, your kid is still unambiguous at the critical moment, I'll go back and resume my life." ”

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Pei Zheng hurriedly stopped him: "Third brother, slow down, there is something I want you to help talk to the general, I want to ask him for military orders, and mobilize some supplies from the treasury for the road." ”

"I have already told Old Man Zhang what you want, just take the military order and go over and get it. ”

Zhao Laosan thought for a while and said: "You are traveling with several big people this time, there are a lot of things to pay attention to along the way, and it is the right thing to do with more materials, and I will report this matter to the general truthfully." ”

The benefits of maintaining a good relationship were suddenly obvious, and the implication of Zhao Laosan's words was that he would persuade Zhao Gu for Pei Zheng.

Pei Zheng hugged his fists with a straight face and said, "Little brother, thank you third brother." ”

Zhao Laosan waved his hand and left with a smile.

......

In the evening, the old man Zhang took a few people with a black face and pushed a few cars to Pei Zheng's barracks, and unloaded the goods inside without saying a word.

Looking at that appearance, people who don't know still think that he has lost a lot of money gambling with others.

Pei Zheng saw it in his eyes, and didn't deliberately talk to Old Man Zhang, but when he was leaving, he took out four jars of wine and stuffed them into the cart.

When the old man Zhang saw this scene, he immediately smiled, and hurriedly took out five porcelain bottles from his sleeves, and stuffed them into Pei Zheng's hand without saying a word: "You kid save some use." ”

Pei Zheng looked down, eager to throw away the things in his hand, his face was dark, and he scolded: "Labor and management waist is good, I don't need this medicine." ”

Old man Zhang's words came from afar: "Keep it, you can always use it, the market price of this medicine is fifteen taels of silver, and ordinary people can't afford it." ”

Pei Zheng, who was about to throw the porcelain bottle containing the golden gun pill in his hand on the ground, heard the price and silently put it away.

No, you can sell it for silver.
