Chapter 44 Return to the village

The soldiers may not be strong, but the horses are very strong, and half of the more than 100 people in the Fourth Banner cannot ride horses, but they are only infantry on horseback, and the speed of travel is not fast.

Fortunately, the distance is not far, a few miles in a flash.

Standing in front of the gate of Xiandengzhai again, Liu Tugou looked at the big hole on the suspension bridge that had been repaired, and couldn't help but smile.

The one guarding the door on the wall was not the third flag crossbowman that day, but a few black-armored swordsmen standing straight, Sang Yuan said in a low voice: "My lord, they are all fresh faces. ”

After Liu Tugou nodded slightly, Sang Yuan raised his head and shouted: "The fourth flag is back to the village, which one is on duty, quickly open the door of the village!"

Several black-armored swordsmen did not squint, and one of them asked condescendingly, "Is there a certificate?"

Sang Yuan was stunned and said angrily: "Where did you get the Lingqi from Dengwei first?"

A young black-clothed swordsman appeared on the wall, looked at the people outside the village, and said with a smile: "But Brother Liu, the fourth banner of the left battalion, Lu Bingchen, the commander of the hundred cavalry of the first banner of the lower right battalion." Brother Liu may not know that he has been out for many days, but now he has regrouped first, all kinds of systems are new, I dare not go beyond them, and I ask for forgiveness if I am offended. ”

Liu Tugou raised his head and squinted at Lu Bingchen, grinned and said, "It's okay, but I don't know when the Fourth Banner will be able to enter the village?"

Lu Bingchen smiled modestly: "I have sent someone to report to the captain of the school, and when I hand over the Hundred Cavalry Commander Banner with Brother Liu, there will be no obstacle to the passage naturally." ”

The second master was too lazy to talk nonsense, just nodded, and said inexplicably, "Don't be idle", and closed his eyes to recuperate.

Lu Bingchen's smile couldn't help but be a little stiff, and he looked carefully at the fourth flag under the wall, and found that everyone had closed their eyes.

This is no one in the eyes of the naked ~ naked ~ naked, and Lu Qi's face finally has no smile at all.

After waiting for a while, the person who came to deliver the Hundred Horsemen Commander's Banner arrived, but it was an acquaintance - Zhang Jinbei.

The third banner hundred cavalry commander looked gloomy, and without looking at Lu Bingchen, he jumped down from the wall. When he saw the people of the Fourth Banner in front of him clearly, his face finally softened a little.

Liu Tugou opened his eyes, turned over and dismounted and said with a smile: "Third brother Zhang, don't come unharmed, the younger brother has only left for half a month, why did he change his appearance when he ascended the village first?"

Zhang Jinbei raised his hand and threw Liu Tugou a command flag, he still had his usual indifferent tone, but he couldn't hear any emotion: "This is your order flag, as for the first guard, now the vacancy has been filled, you and I have an extra captain of the left battalion, and there is nothing else." ”

Liu Tugou raised his hand to take it, looked down and took a look, the Ling Banner was made of jasper, with a slight red light flashing inside, it was a messenger jade flag only found in the elite of the Forbidden Army's border army, and it came from the hands of a warlock in the realm of the Jingshi Craftsman as the Supervisor Grandmaster.

The second master couldn't help laughing and said, "Captain Li is really willing to spend blood. ”

He raised the command flag in his hand towards Lu Bingchen, who waved his hand very simply, the suspension bridge was lowered, and the gate of the village was opened.

"Third Brother Zhang, these five hundred military horses were originally for the right battalion, but the younger brother intercepted them, and he is going to leave two hundred for his own use, and the rest will be distributed to the first, second, and third banners, I don't know how much the third flag will cost?"

Zhang Jinbei raised his eyebrows and smiled for the first time: "A hundred horses are good, and the first and second banners must be reluctant to be so fat, everyone just went into the water together." ”

Liu Tugou laughed: "Who is the captain of the left battalion?"

"Captain Li's henchmen are guards, practicing qi in the realm, and his skills are not weak, and they all call him Captain Li Zuo in the village. ”

"Oh, there must be another lieutenant Li You?"

"It's really not, the right lieutenant's surname is Luo, and he is a disciple of Jianzhou with Lu Bingchen. Zhang Jinbei's words meant something.

"It's really a big show, first the Qingzhou Haidong Gang, and now it's the girl-like sword forest, and they all put their hands into Shuofang, Chang Junmen has a big belly. ”

"These things are not for you and me to worry about, now the left and right camps are separated, with the first stage as the boundary, and the north is the left camp, you let Sang Yuan take them to find a place to settle down, the Yu brothers and the surname Ren are here, just to share the spoils. ”

Liu Tugou waved his hand to the several chiefs who followed behind him, and followed Zhang Jinbei into the village first.

The two of them traveled quickly, but they passed the stage one step ahead of the team, turned left and right all the way, and entered a small simple house, Zhang Jinbei explained that this was his residence.

Boss Yu's golden lion was lying in the courtyard basking in the sun, and when he noticed that someone had come in, his eyelids were raised and closed, ignoring the two of them.

The door of the main hall was open, and Boss Yu and Ren Xichou each had a square table or so, drinking relative to each other.

Zhang Jinbei entered the door and walked until the main seat sat down, and Liu Tugou sat opposite him honestly and unceremoniously.

Zhang Jinbei got straight to the point: "Brother Liu has brought 100 military horses to each of you, which is the supply of the right battalion, do you dare to ask for it?"

Boss Yu opened his mouth and said happily: "Is there such a good thing? I heard that Brother Liu climbed the way of Changjun Gate, and even dared to block the Shuofang City Gate, but now I see that it is really wide, and I want to do a big job when I come back this time?"

Ren Xichou was crisp and neat, and only said one word: "Yes!"

Liu Tugou was noncommittal, in addition to blocking the door to recruit troops, and being imprisoned in a bitter prison, Chang Zhaoqing was even present in person after the slaughter of the knife, which was all something that could not be concealed, saying that if he did not take refuge in the general, someone had to believe it: "The children of Jianzhou were attracted by Li Songqi?"

Zhang Jinbei nodded and said: "It is already clear now, Jianzhou Mu Lu Dongyu fell to His Royal Highness the Third Prince a few years ago, and Luo Chunting, the chief soldier of Jianzhou, is the person of Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess. Since Lu Luo's two families have sent people, Li Songqi's background cannot get rid of the two noble courts in Beijing, maybe the two highnesses will join forces. ”

Ren Xichou said: "It is rumored that the eldest princess is friendly with the crown prince, but the third prince is just average, but now it seems that it is not true. ”

Boss Yu said impatiently: "What do you do to say that these things are far away in the sky, Brother Liu is not only a member of Changjunmen, but everyone is his own people, and now we are all regarded as people who have been excluded from our hometowns, especially you Zhang San, Daqimen still has to live under the nose of Changjunmen." What the hell should I do, let's make a charter!"

Liu Tugou participated in the private meeting of the hundred horsemen of the first guard, quite novel, in addition to personal cultivation, more than 100 subordinates behind him are the confidence that he can sit here, holding the power and holding the handle of the knife have their own merits, but they can give people a strange sense of satisfaction.

Before he could speak, there was a sudden knock on the courtyard door: "My lord, the fourth flag was stopped by Li Zuowei with the fifth flag, saying that it was going to be returned to the right battalion, and it looks like a fight is about to start!"

Zhang Jinbei and the other three looked at Liu Tugou together, and the second master grinned: "Let the family come to the door first." The younger brother has just come back, and he hasn't seen Lord Zuo yet, and the official should not like it, so he will correct his mistakes. Would the three brothers be interested in going together?"

Ren Xichou got up and said, "Naturally, go with you." ”

Boss Yu smiled: "Brother Liu is really a bad belly, I'm just afraid that he will make up his mind to make a fuss when he intercepts the horse, right?"

He picked up a meat bone from the table and threw it to the golden lion who was taking a nap: "I'm getting lazy, let's go!"

Zhang Jinbei said: "I went to gather the people of the Third Banner, which had been replenished a few days ago, and I just happened to practice my hands." ”

Liu Tugou pulled his arm and grinned: "Brother who doesn't need to work the third banner, let's hurry up, I'm afraid I won't even have a chance to do it if it's late." ”

The four of them went out of the courtyard gate, turned all the way to the main street, and saw a crowd of people from afar, and it was black and oppressive.

The horse team of the Fourth Banner was surrounded in the middle, and the people shouted and neighed, and the noise was unusual.

There was a sudden uproar in the crowd, and the crowd pushed and shoved back in all directions like a low tide, and then fell into a brief silence.

Liu Tugou was the first to jump onto the roof, and approached the center of the crowd with a burst of cornices. When he saw the situation in the field, the second master couldn't help but be happy.

Dong Dilang stepped on a person's head under his feet, and said disdainfully: "You dare to stand in the way of your grandfather even if you do such a little way?" You say that the military horse belongs to the right battalion is the right battalion? You are still the captain of the left battalion, it really chills the brothers! Come on, come on, I see that your armor is good, you must have embezzled the supplies for my fourth banner, quickly take off and return to the original owner!"

Yang Xiongji was holding a jade flag in his hand, and a person was also overturned at his feet, and when he saw Liu Tugou arrive, his face stretched longer: "If you shoot a little slower, you will only catch a waste, and you can't even keep your own order flag, and you are worthy of being a hundred cavalry commanders?"

Zhang Jinbei and the other three also rushed to the roof of the house where Liu Tugou was standing, and saw Dong Dilang's appearance and the strange-shaped long knife he was carrying, and they couldn't help but be a little surprised, the two giants of General Shuofang and Captain Yue Cai actually joined forces?

Looking at the leaders of Liu Tugou's subordinates, their cultivation is not equal, except for a young man who is new to qi training, the remaining five people have a red vertical mark on their foreheads, which is the same as Liu Tugou.

If it weren't for Dong Dilang being among them, several people would never believe that these people were picked up by Liu Tugou blocking the door, but they should be from the same school.

Immediately afterwards, the three of them were attracted by the knife carried by the waist of the Fourth Banner soldier, they had all been to the restaurant in Shuofang City, and naturally recognized the embroidered spring knife, and it was obvious that Gongsun Long was also involved, which was really confusing, and the gaze of the second master added a lot of inexplicable meaning.

Liu Tugou looked at several of his subordinates, Yang Xiongji and Dong Dilang are both smart and domineering masters, they got their own instructions in advance, naturally they refused to eat at all, Sang Yuan and the other four people didn't know the inside story, regardless of whether they had any guesses in their hearts, they were qualified to stand up without fear.

The second master was relieved and said with a smile: "What are two pestles doing on the street, leaving three hundred military horses, and then they all get out!"

When everyone heard this, led by Yang Xiongji and Dong Dilang, more than 100 people rushed towards the west of the street with more than a dozen people including Lao Si, and the fifth banner of the left camp was leaderless, and the symbolic barrier was broken through.

Five hundred horses were then driven to follow, and the long street was spread all over the long street, and there were special soldiers counting them.

Many people in the other three banners were present to watch, and when they heard the order of their respective hundred cavalry commanders, they all smiled and stepped forward to divide their horses, and they all felt that this Liu Qi was really interesting.

Several hundred cavalry commanders gathered together and surrounded the still unconscious Li Zuowei and the fifth banner hundred cavalry commanders.

Boss Yu sighed and admired: "Brother Liu, your brother is really black, look at this unrecognizable and pitiful appearance, isn't it going to be disfigured." ”

Ren Xichou's eyes behind the mask also emitted a happy brilliance: "How to deal with the aftermath? It's not appropriate to face Li Songqi head-on now, after all, he occupies the name of righteousness." ”

Zhang Jinbei looked at Liu Tugou: "What do you say?"

The second master thought for a while and asked, "Why don't you go out and fight back to Grass Valley with the third and fourth flags?"
