Chapter 10 Talking about wine

Xie Tong went back to the barracks and slept for a while, when he woke up, it was already dusk, he secretly observed the injury, and the soldiers saw him wake up, and said, "Lord Xie, the commander has an order, and you will go to his battalion commander after you wake up."

Xie Tong hurriedly got up and went to Zhu Wen's camp under the leadership of the soldiers.

Zhu Wen's tent is located in the center of the camp, there is no other difference from the camp tent of ordinary soldiers, there are two soldiers standing at the door of the camp, seeing Xie Tong's arrival, he greeted him with a smile, Xie Tong smiled back and walked into the camp.

Zhu Wen was waiting for him in the tent, and when he saw him come in, he motioned for him to sit beside him. It turned out that a brazier was prepared in the tent, and a sheep was roasting on the brazier, which had been roasted into a dark smoked color, and the thick mutton fat dripped on the charcoal of the brazier, making a sizzling sound, Xie Tong was extremely moved, he had long heard that roasting whole sheep was a delicacy, but he had never eaten it, he walked to the opposite side of Zhu Wen and sat down slowly.

Zhu Wen patted the wine jar behind him and said, "Drink two glasses with me."

Xie Tong is also a bold person, and said, "When you see wine and food, don't wait for the commander's orders, Xie Tong also wants to have a few more glasses." ”

Zhu Wen unsealed the clay sculpture, and immediately, the aroma of wine overflowed, he took out a large bowl and poured it all for the two of them, and the two of them did not speak, and directly made a bowl.

Xie Tong said, "It's really good wine."

Zhu Wen didn't look at him, he cut a small piece of meat on the roasted leg of lamb with a knife, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed it by himself, which was endlessly delicious.

Xie Tong also learned from him and ate mutton.

Zhu Wen said: "What do you think of the general trend of the world!"

Xie Tong knew that Zhu Wen must have something to say to him, but he did not think of asking about the general trend of the world! He pondered for a moment and said: "It is difficult to see through the general trend of the world, and now the righteous army is located in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and has left the Central Plains. On the other hand, in the Tang Empire, the eunuchs ****, the bureaucrats are corrupt, and the people are not happy, it is really the building that will collapse, but the hundred-legged snakes and insects are dead but not stiff, not to mention the Sichuan, Shu and Song Kui, which are still five or five open"

Zhu Wen snorted coldly and said, "Song Kui is the oldest, if the Tang Empire counted on him, it would have been destroyed long ago." Although the Tang Empire is decayed and weakened, it is no longer the grand occasion of the past, but there are still millions of troops, and it is only easy to exterminate the righteous army, not to mention that there are many loyal generals. In comparison, the rebels were too weak. Now, the Tang army is not moving, just because the weather in the north is getting colder, the river is about to be blocked, a little rest, when the weather warms up in the spring of the next year, it is bound to go south, only a few months, for the righteous army is the only remaining development opportunity. ”

Xie Tong didn't understand military affairs, but Zhu Wen analyzed the Tao, and he listened to it with relish. Xie Tong said, "In this case, how big does the commander think the victory of the righteous army will be in the future!"

Zhu Wen drank another bowl of wine and said, "Two layers! It depends on the will of heaven." ”

Xie Tong was surprised that Zhu Wen's use of troops was rare, and his tone and expression did not seem to deceive him. Busy asked, "Why are there only two floors?" ”

Zhu Wen glanced at him meaningfully, and said, "The reason is the instability within the righteous army, the righteous army is now uneven, there are idle people, etc., the general listens to Meng Kai's words and recruits people widely, but he doesn't know the truth that soldiers are not expensive." Just look at the people recruited by Datuk, all of them are roosters and dog thieves, what kind of climate can they become. It directly divided the rebel army into two major factions, and the factions fought endlessly, and it was easy to kill you and me. In such a situation, how can we achieve great things. The general has been blinded by Dato's generation and can't listen to me, and if he continues like this, he will repeat the mistakes of Wang Xianzhi. ”

Xie Tong looked at the leader of the rebel army respectfully, and said, "Isn't there any other way for the commander?"

A fierce look shot out of Zhu Wen's eyes, and he immediately passed away, "I really want to kill them all with one sword, but since I am playing tricks with Zhu Wen, I will accompany you to the end to see who will kill the deer." ”

Xie Tong suddenly thought of him and Lu Wushuang's affair, and said in his heart that Zhu Wen was really a master of playing tricks. Unconsciously burying Lu Wushuang's chess piece, he can directly hit Lu Li and the others at a critical moment, so it seems that he must have other arrangements.

Zhu Wen played with the knife in his hand, and said casually, "That night, in Jiankang City, the person who broke me and Lu Wushuang was you!"

Xie Tong was shocked into a cold sweat, he clenched the knife with both hands, and looked directly at Zhu Wen, not knowing where he showed his feet. Thinking of Zhu Wen's terrifying martial arts, he secretly raised his true qi in case of an accident.

Zhu Wen surprisingly didn't make a move, he continued to cut the mutton, and said, "Then **** I fought in the other courtyard of Jiankang City, you made the light kung fu footwork very ingenious, and used it again in the ring in the army, Datuk and others can't see it, how can I Zhu Wen not know." ”

Xie Tong absolutely believes in Zhu Wen's vision, he has fought with Zhu Wen, and knows that his martial arts attainments and vision are indeed above Datuk and Lu Li, but even if he knows that he has broken his secret, he still talks so eloquently, he doesn't seem to care.

Xie Tong said vigilantly, "Xie followed Lu Wushuang and had no intention of breaking the matter of the Commander, please forgive the Commander."

Zhu Wen didn't answer his words, and said to himself, "These **** have been thinking, where in the world is there a young master who has never met to participate in the sword worship conference." You must know that almost all of the people who participated in the conference were invited by Datuk to support the rebels and join their camp by the way, and discredited people like Hebei Shuangsha could join the army, which was simply an insult to the rebels. ”

Xie Tong knew that Zhu Wen hadn't finished speaking, and waited for him to continue.

Zhu Wen took a sip of wine and continued, "However, after the competition in the army that day, I can clearly feel that you and them are not the same kind of people, if it is Dato's people, Lu Li will not give up on Lu Wushuang's matter. And you seem to come to Yangzhou without a purpose, but you are famous everywhere, it is really intentional, until you join the Tianzi Battalion, Zhu understands that you are approaching us. ”

Xie Tong broke out in a cold sweat, he didn't expect Zhu Wen to be so clever that he could infer his purpose from his words and deeds, and he couldn't argue.

Zhu Wen said again, "At first, I thought you were a spy sent by the imperial court, until Pei Xiangru of the Hainan Sword Sect suddenly appeared that day, I am sure that you are not a spy."

Xie Tong asked, "How can you see it?"

Zhu Wen said word by word, "Because you learned that the master was coming, you would definitely have to run away, but you didn't, which made Zhu very puzzled, I really can't think of anything that can make you risk life and death and stay, there is only one possibility, for the Qinggang Sword." In the world, there are no more than three types of people who want to get the Qinggang Sword, one is the general, the second is the Tang Emperor, and the third is the person of Huang Tiandao. In this way, your identity can be revealed. ”

Xie Tong couldn't hold it anymore, the cleaver in his hand flew towards Zhu Wen suddenly, Zhu Wen didn't look at him, stretched out his fingers and pinched the handle of the knife, and said, "The kid is so uncontrollable, how can he become a big thing in the future." ”

Xie Tong sat down slowly, took the handle of the knife, and didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Zhu Wen's gourd.

Zhu Wen shook his head and said, "If I have the intention of hurting you, I'm afraid you can still eat roast mutton alive now?" Xie Yang, Xie Daxia!"

Xie Tong calmed his steady mood, knowing that he was not Zhu Wen's opponent, and the other party had no intention of hurting him, there must be a reason, and said, "Commander, I don't know what to do with me!"

Zhu Wen said, "I'm willing to help you get the Qingyu Sword!"

Xie Tong couldn't believe his ears, he felt that his blood was boiling, everything was too sudden, but he didn't show it, Zhu Wen must still have his conditions. Xie Tong asked, "The commander is the general's right-hand man, isn't this tantamount to betraying the general?"

Zhu Wen said with a smile, "I do support the general, and I will not betray him, I just help him embark on a broader road, Datuk and Lu Li summoned martial arts people to join the rebel army, ostensibly to build momentum, but in fact brought a worse reputation to the rebel army, and became a place to hide filth and dirt, which is greatly detrimental to the future development of the rebel army, I will never allow this to happen, if I can help you get the Qingyu Sword, the sword worship conference will not be held, it will inevitably cause a great blow to them, do you understand?"

Xie Tong admired this wise commander from the bottom of his heart, and the righteous army in his heart was really a righteous army that rescued the people from fire and water, not a rabble. Xie Tong believed him from the bottom of his heart, and said, "Xie is grateful for the great kindness of the commander, and he is bound to go all out." ”

Zhu Wen said, "The Qingyu Sword is hidden in the Wenhe Palace, in the general's Shangshu room, the day before the Sword Worship Conference, I will remove the defense outside the Wenhe Palace, you can easily enter, after you succeed, I can send someone to help you leave." That's all I can help! It's up to you to succeed, and I promise you that no one will bother you. ”

Xie Tong hugged his fists and said, "Thank you, Commander."

Zhu Wen smiled slightly, and suddenly said, "It's not good! If you are Xie Yang, then Pei Xiangru is not a disciple of the Hainan Sword Sect, so good, really smart! It turns out that they are the real court spies."

Xie Tong said, "Then they don't coincide with my goal, can the commander take them down!"

Zhu Wen said, "No, they must collude with Datuk and Lu Li, if I take people rashly, I will definitely reveal your identity." It's extremely unwise, since the other side wants to play, let's play with them, it seems that Yangzhou is interesting now!"

Immediately, he said, "There is something important to forget to tell you, the general has suspended your position as the commander of the Tianzi Battalion, and it will be arranged after the sword ceremony, and tomorrow night the general will personally hold a dinner party to make a break between you and the Hainan Sword Sect." Dato' and the others will put pressure on you, and you can do whatever you want, and if you can penetrate the enemy, it will do us a lot of good luck in our plans, do you understand?"

Xie Tong nodded deeply.

The two drank until late at night, Xie Tong couldn't sleep again and again, Zhu Wen shocked him too much, he had never seen such a heroic figure. Zhu Wen is wise and wise, he can easily see through his schemes, and his martial arts are even more astonishing, no wonder he is invincible in the Hebei battlefield.
