Less than half of the cavalry sent out by the Wandering Soul Fort to inquire about the information of the Turkic barbarians returned, which made Zhou Ziheng feel distressed.

Originally, the garrison in the city was insufficient, and an army of less than 6,000 might really be able to fight at that time, and it would be good if there were three or four thousand without stage fright.

How many people are on the opposite side? The Turkic barbarians have 50,000 cavalry, and even if the time comes to dismount and fight on foot, it will be more than a dozen to fight one. More than ten years ago, he was able to beat the barbarians back to the grassland and become a shrinking turtle, which was to use almost all the cavalry in the Tang Dynasty.

This Xujiabao, with only a few hundred cavalry, thinking about going out to fight those barbarians is simply a fool's dream.

Captain Zhenwu gave Zhou Ziheng an idea, after all, there are still many people in the city in this Wandering Soul Castle, no matter what they did before, now they are all mobilized, and those who have the strength are ready to roll stones. The women and the old people were responsible for making food, those who opened pharmacies were levied to be military doctors, and all the blacksmith shops were emptied, and those who had money contributed money and force.

When Zhou Ziheng heard it, this is a good idea, after all, if the Wandering Soul Castle is broken, it is estimated that few people in this city will survive except for those girls in the brothel.

This matter was handed over to Captain Zhenwu to personally lead his men to handle.

Captain Zhenwu's words also woke up Zhou Ziheng, it seems that there are still many people who can contribute in this Wandering Soul Castle, and there are not many heroes who have not left the city. He found Guo Xiaojiu, personally brought tea and water to Guo Xiaojiu, and asked for warmth.

"What's the matter, you might as well say it directly, follow me for this set, it's weird. Guo Xiaojiu stared at Zhou Ziheng's unserious appearance and shook his head slightly.

"Hey, Xiao Jiu, I'll look for you, it's not a big deal. Zhou Ziheng said sloppily.

"Well, I don't think it's good for you to look for me. Guo Xiaojiu helped the scabbard, it is not a matter of importance, and it is nothing good, in Guo Xiaojiu's heart, it comes from this guy's mouth, it is the same thing.

"You don't believe me, I'm a dignified son of Luoyang, what can I do to you?" Zhou Ziheng glanced at Guo Xiaojiu.

Guo Xiaojiu put his foot on Zhou Ziheng's buttocks: "Say it or not, don't say that I'm leaving." ”

As soon as he heard Guo Xiaojiu say that he was leaving, Zhou Ziheng hurriedly grabbed Guo Xiaojiu's arm with a flattering smile on his face.

"It's not you, a few days ago, among the people in this Soul Castle, but you are famous, I just want to let you get closer to them and let them see your demeanor more. ”

"Hey, you kid still has this mind. Guo Xiaojiu smiled, and then continued: "I think it's probably your kid who wants me to trick those people into cutting down the Turkic barbarians for you, right?"

Zhou Ziheng gasped, his mind was seen through, and he was not in a hurry, and nodded at Guo Xiaojiu: "What's the matter, it's not for nothing, it's not for nothing, there is money to take, you have also seen it, when the eldest grandson and deputy are escorted away, nothing else is left, just a lot of silver for white flowers." ”

"Why don't you go by yourself?" Guo Xiaojiu turned around, reached out and stroked the scabbard, already preparing to leave.

"Isn't this that I have other things to do, besides, now these people in the rivers and lakes, their eyes are shining when they see you, I will say that even if I can fool so many, I still don't care as much as you, right?"

followed Guo Xiaojiu closely and walked a long way, Zhou Ziheng was almost deflated, thinking, if it weren't for Hongluan being your little aunt, I would definitely scold you kid for blood.

It was also a loss that Zhou Ziheng couldn't beat Guo Xiaojiu, but he was beaten by Guo Xiaojiu several times.

"Okay, okay, you are busy with your going, Mr. Zhang is talking in the teahouse in front of me, I'll listen to it." Guo Xiaojiu turned around and said to Zhou Ziheng.

Old man Zhang said that most of the people who listened to the book must be Jianghu children, Guo Xiaojiu said to listen to the book, and the stone in Zhou Ziheng's heart fell to the ground.

He did have other things to do, and after separating from Guo Xiaojiu, he hurriedly found a few city guards and took him to the death row of this Wandering Soul Castle.

Naturally, there are death row inmates on death row, and Zhou Ziheng thought that as long as these death row inmates are willing to contribute, the death penalty can be avoided, and they can even send some money back to their families, no matter how they plan it, they will not lose money.

Guo Xiaojiu, who was going straight with a knife, walked into a teahouse.

Old man Zhang is still like a river, talking like this, saying this and this, after some polishing by Old Man Zhang, I heard that the ears of those Jianghu men were really happy. Coincidentally, at this time, Zhang Jiming was talking about the affairs of the Deputy Capital Protector's Mansion that day.

There were a lot of heroes in the rivers and lakes that day, and now they are in this teahouse, and they are also listening to it vividly, no matter whether what Zhang Jiming said is true or not, anyway, when I hear a refreshing place, a shout, a bowl of wine.

The teahouse is not big, around the teahouse, three floors inside and three floors outside, full of heroes from the rivers and lakes.

Guo Xiaojiu walked into the teahouse, the guy in the teahouse didn't recognize him, but he was also a spectator, so he casually handed over a pot of tea, continued to poke his head, and looked into the crowd.

It is said to be a teahouse, but it is actually a tavern, but by the way, there is also some tea business.

Everyone knows that the storyteller Mr. Zhang likes to drink, and he is not happy without alcohol, so what Zhang Jiming drank at this time must be the best wine in this teahouse.

Guo Xiaojiu, who was standing on the periphery of the crowd, didn't care too much about the rudeness of his guys, and he didn't move the pot of tea, but just took off the wine bag on his waist and drank it slowly.

With a few waking wood slapping the table, the sound of the servant's pipa fell, and this section was nearing the end.

Most of the heroes of the rivers and lakes have not yet woken up from the previous pleasure, so they can only be a little sorry and reminisce about what Master Zhang said just now.

A few well-known men in the rivers and lakes drank a bowl with Zhang Jiming, and the heroes around them were ready to leave one after another.

I don't know who suddenly shouted: "It's Guo Shaoxia!"

This sentence was not loud, but the surrounding heroes who were about to leave turned their heads and followed the sound to find it, but unfortunately they didn't recognize Guo Xiaojiu, so they could only stand stupidly and watch other people's movements.

Hearing that shout, Guo Xiaojiu was very satisfied, but he was not so proud that he thought that the world was invincible, at most he had some fame in this city.

A well-known man like him will jump out of one or two huge rivers and lakes from time to time, and most of them will be ignored soon after, and gradually disappear from people's sight.

He stood up and arched his hand at everyone, he walked to Zhang Jiming's table, saluted Zhang Jiming, and then sat down.

A group of heroes hurriedly surrounded again, wanting to see the demeanor of this young hero.

The guy earlier also saw Guo Xiaojiu, he was a little distracted in place, and hurriedly wiped his eyes, only then did he realize that he seemed to have missed something that he regretted for a long time.

"I can't afford to be called this young man. Guo Xiaojiu smiled, he didn't forget Zhou Ziheng's explanation, and hurriedly turned to the topic: "I came here this time, first to listen to Old Man Zhang's book." ”

"Second, it's Zhou Ziheng, the son of Luoyang, who asked me to come and inform you. The Turkic barbarians are just outside the city, and you have all heard of them. ”

Without waiting for Guo Xiaojiu to continue, those heroes of the rivers and lakes understood Guo Xiaojiu's intentions, and there were a few big grinning ones, who may have no scruples over the years, patted their chests and promised: "Don't worry, young man, we will definitely stand at the head of the city at that time." ”

"Hey, you are all good sons and daughters in the rivers and lakes, but you can't work in vain, I made it clear to His Royal Highness the prince, a barbarian head, five dollars. Guo Xiaojiu stretched out a slap and said.

This can make those men who were originally hesitant to make their hearts down, in the past, a barbarian head was always money, but now it is estimated that after killing the 50,000 barbarians outside the city, everyone is a wealthy owner with dozens of dollars.

Zhang Jiming smiled, pinched the erhu and drank a bowl of wine: "The little old man is also excited." ”

"Old man Zhang, you're so old, don't grab business with us juniors?"

As soon as these words came out, they immediately caused laughter in the room. Zhang Jiming was not angry, just glanced at his mouth and smiled.

These people only knew that his surname was Zhang, but no one knew that outside the Deputy Capital Protector's Mansion that day, there was a more earth-shattering battle between him and the old lady who called Lian Hu.

Just when these heroes were about to end again, someone hurriedly ran over: "Over there in Nancheng, there is an army, about four or five thousand people, but they are all miscellaneous troops. ”

The miscellaneous army is also a sergeant of the Tang Dynasty, and those who can be here and dare to come to the Soul Castle are all good sons of the Tang Dynasty.

"Let's go, let's see. Someone immediately shouted.

These people also liked to join in the fun, and immediately left in groups of three or five, following the messenger of the rivers and lakes.

"Let's go take a look?" Zhang Jiming stood up, beckoned to the maidservant behind him, and glanced at Guo Xiaojiu a few times.

"I can't walk with Zhang Laoyezi, I can't ask for it. Guo Xiaojiu hurriedly responded with a smile.
