Do you cooperate with Hua Yansui? How can you disdain and refuse?Chi Heng sorted out the bits and pieces in his memory and determined that Long Jiang was very interested, but it seemed that the conditions had not been negotiated.
Even so, Chi Heng smiled calmly and said, "General Lang has given me full authority over the matter of recruiting troops and buying horses. Even if he doesn't say anything, he will acquiesce."
Hua Yan followed suit: "You are making decisions without authorization."
Chi Heng was embarrassed.
"White wolf with empty gloves, and what I drew for me is a cake on paper. Even if I agree to this kind of business, my manager and big shopkeepers will definitely not agree." The long eyelashes covered the eyes, "Chi Heng, today Wuweilou specially made a Baiqiu feast for you to cleanse the dust, and put the trivial things aside. It's rare to have such a leisurely life."
Sleeping in the side hall of Huafu, looking at the super luxurious guest room, Chi Heng breathed a sigh of relief.
toss and turns.
Thinking about how to impress Hua Yansui.
The next day, the sky was clear, and Chi Heng took the opportunity to tell Hua Yansui about the bravery of King Yan's army, how he was invincible when he stepped on Pingchuan.Hua Yansui still listened with a smile, but bluntly refused.
It was like this for three consecutive days.
Rao Chi Heng talked like a river every day, Hua Yansui was still reclining on the couch, the waves were calm, the clouds were calm and the wind was clear.Chi Heng was in a hurry, seeing that it was already October, and there was no movement here.The flood is imminent, and if it is a few days late, it may not be possible to do anything in time.
In addition, the weather was surprisingly good and the sun was shining brightly.
With sparse shadows and slanting shadows, the scenery of Huafu is even more exciting than Xanadu.
If Chi Heng hadn't seen Zhuang Qi's ability, he would have doubted that the so-called "Da Shui" must be a nonsense - not to doubt, but in fact his heart began to waver, and he insisted on it.The gratifying thing is that Hua Yansui didn't even drive him away, but also liked to ask him about the local conditions and customs of Kuzi County, Ningzhou, Sizhou, especially Kuzi. With relish.
In this way, for three days, Chi Heng thought he had become a storyteller.
On the fourth day, when Chi Heng was grinding his mouth again, a letter came: Lang Jiang's letter.
He was ecstatic.
The guards of Huafu brought the reporter in, and before he could ask any more questions, Chi Heng eagerly opened the letters, one was for himself, the other was for Hua Yansui, the letters were very thick—Chi Heng handed them to Hua without the original letter. Yan Sui.
89 eighty-nine
【89】
The letter to Chi Heng was concise and clear, with two lines: all weapons are on credit, and the salt in Leizhou is exempted from tax for five years in exchange;
And a big "secret" word.
No more words, not even taking care of yourself.
Chi Heng was stunned.
Immediately shocked and burst of ecstasy, this is timely charcoal, when seeing nowhere to go, Lang Jiang's letter is the water to put out the fire!With such generous conditions, will Hua Yansui still be reserved?
And Huayan read the thick letter to him, her lazy expression disappeared, and a light flashed across her face.In the past, when looking at people, it seemed like he was looking at him or not, but now when looking at people, his eyes are shining brightly, more eye-catching than the jewels on his body.
like two different people.
Chi Heng was surprised by his radiance, and tried to say: "I don't know if Lang will explain it to Mr. Hua."
Hua Yan smiled with the corner of his mouth: "You guys have figured it out, let him not be so rigid. This is a great thing. Huafu can form an alliance with Yan Wangjun, and it will be smooth sailing in the future; Yan Wangjun has flowers. The help from the government must also be like adding wings to a tiger, the best of both worlds, this king is more than I can ask for."
ah?Is this what happened?Is it a little too fast, too overwhelming?
"Army rations..."
Hua Yansui was very proud: "Since it is an alliance, I will naturally do my best. Yan Wangjun naturally doesn't need to worry about food, grass and weapons. Come and serve chrysanthemum wine. I want to have a few cups with Vice President Chi!"
The two sides congratulated each other, after a few glasses of chrysanthemum wine.
Seeing Huayan follow Wei Xun, Chi Heng boldly asked: "Mr. Hua, what I said earlier is the same as General Lang said, why are you not at all moved?"
Hua Yansui laughed dumbfounded: "The difference is huge."
"What's the difference?"
"One, what you said is different from what Yan Luan said."
The position is different, Yan Luan is the general who controls life and death, and he is in charge of everything, and he is still a deputy, so he can only talk about making cakes.
"Second, you only talk about the many benefits, you also talk about salt, you also talk about silk, and you also talk about Wuzhi County, but you don't talk about how the benefits are divided."
The interests are not clear, Hua Yan decides how to decide.
"Third, even if Yan Luan comes in person, if I keep talking with me about the county, the sky, the battle, and the people, I will just treat it as listening to anecdotes. It's not too much, just hit the point. Even It doesn't matter if you say it badly." Hua Yansui took a sip of the wine, his eyes full of alcohol, "Chi Heng, you don't have to be depressed. If ordinary people can't speak the point, I can't get enough of a cup of tea. It's dismissed. It's just you, talking nonsense, I can still allow you to stay here for a few days."
Chi Heng was silent.
After being slightly drunk, Hua Yansui is even more splendid.
His subordinates had already arrived at the order, and he left after saying that he wanted to arrange food and other matters in the Qinjian Building.
Chi Heng was left alone, with a jug of wine and a few dishes of side dishes, to savor by himself.
He recalled several times how he had tortured Hua Yansui in the past few days, what Hua Yansui said, what Lang Jiang said, and even the details of Ji Ce's negotiations with others, he carefully pondered over them.Just now he thought that his own people were soft-spoken, so Hua Yan Sui didn't believe it when he said there was a flood; but Yan Luan was a general, and Hua Yan Sui obviously believed it very much when he said there was a flood.
Actually?
It does matter who said it.
Most importantly, did you talk about what Huayan wanted to hear and wanted.
What Hua Yansui is concerned about is not whether there will be a flood, but whether it will benefit.Whether it's a big deal or not, he just pays his share and waits for the profit.So, he would say, he doesn't care about celestial phenomena.
What happens to the sky, only myself and Cen Pojing will pay attention.
In the same way, Chi Heng would rather pay attention to how to chase deserters after the capture of the base state, but he would never pay attention to such matters as how to collect the salt tax, how to collect the silk tax, and how to collect the farmland after the capture of the base state—because, These have nothing to do with him.Actually, aren't these affairs important?That is also a matter of people's livelihood for a lifetime!
It's all the same, with different concerns.
The focus is naturally different.
Originally thought that Huayan followed the cold blood and didn't care about the people's livelihood, but it was not the case, when Chi Heng thought about it like this, it was like enlightenment, and he felt that everything was jerky.
Thanks to Lang for this help.
Just in time.
General Lang sees farther and farther than himself. He must have weighed the pros and cons and considered the future of Leizhou and Wuzhi County if he can hand over the future—but, General Lang, do you believe that there will be floods? ——It seems that this is not important to Lang Jiang, what is important is the alliance with Hua Yansui.
Don't look at Hua Yansui's usual lazy appearance, ordering things to act vigorously, one thing is done properly.Just like dispatching troops and generals, everyone's responsibilities are clear, and an experienced manager named Pei Laoliu is specially assigned to contact Chi Heng.
Not long after, after everything was ordered, Hua Yan returned to the wine seat.
Pei Laoliu was left to sit with Chi Heng.Hua Yan then asked in detail, when the flood would occur, and where Yan Wang's army would accept the refugees; if there was no flood, where would the Hua family's food and grass go;
Chi Heng said everything.
For some things that he didn't think of himself, Hua Yansui gave him some ideas.
methodical.
It was as if the flood had come.
Seeing that Hua Yansui was completely different from the previous laziness, when arranging these affairs, she was completely confident.Chi Heng was a little dazed, and said with a smile: "Mr. Hua, you have arranged it so carefully, in case, I mean in case the water is not delivered, will you not believe me anymore?"
"Shouldn't you recruit troops if you don't get angry?" Hua Yan asked back with a smile.
"Do you believe we will win?"
"I didn't believe that much at first, but you have been nagging me for four days, and you can't believe it. On this point, you are the same as you generals. You obviously don't have a single soldier in your hand, and you can't believe it. Of course , I believe in him even more, I believe that everything he promises will be given to me." Hua Yansui laughed for the first time, laughing heartily, the sapphire blue dress was radiant and eye-catching.
Any transaction is a bet.
Chi Heng also smiled happily, ha, it seems that I am not completely useless these days.
It took less than two hours from receiving General Lang's letter, to summoning his subordinates, to ordering everything, and then to arranging the details.
Hua Yansui's speed is astonishing.
A big rock can be regarded as falling to the ground. That night, Chi Heng didn't think about how Lang Jiang believed in himself based on a letter.In short, he has so much trust in himself, and he really can't live up to his expectations; when everything is settled, he must go back to General Lang, tell him what happened now, and tell him how anxious and even desperate he was before. Hope abounds in letters.
Thinking of this, he sank into a dream.
In a dim dream, Yan Luan stood by the lotus pond, dressed in red, letting the rain fall from her hair.
Chi Heng was overjoyed and bent down to pick red lotuses for him.
But the red lotus is like long feet, swimming and swimming and swimming far away.In a panic, Chi Heng jumped into the water with a thud, caught Hong Lian in a panic, grabbed her, and swam back happily to claim credit.
Yan Luan didn't look back.
Chi Heng stepped forward, gently hugged Yan Luan from behind, tapped the corner of his cold lips, and said in a hoarse voice: "General Lang, don't worry, I'm by your side, and I will be with you forever, forever."
Bang Dang, Bang Dang.
A loud bang shattered the dream.
When Chi Heng woke up, it turned out that the windows were rattling due to the heavy rain. He was startled and jumped up quickly.At this time, the situation changed suddenly, thunder and lightning roared furiously, and it really started to rain heavily, as if trying to uproot towering trees, it was very frightening.
After a while, a layer of water accumulated, and the rain became heavier and heavier.
Chi Heng didn't know whether to be happy or sad - he should be grateful for this disaster, which weakened the power of Fenzhou and relieved his urgent needs, but natural disasters are natural disasters, and how many people changed their fate because of natural disasters.
Before leaving, the rain had lightened and the clouds had dispersed.
I don't know where the clouds are going.
During breakfast, Hua Yan said leisurely: "I just received the letter last night. The rain in Shuzhou and Fingzhou was a whole day earlier than ours. It started to rain the night before. I thought it was the autumn rain and I didn't worry about it." From this point of view, I am afraid that it will really cause a flood.”
Predictions come true.
Chi Heng asked Hua Yansui: "If General Lang didn't hear from him, would Mr. Hua not care about flood relief at all?"
Hua Yansui was puzzled: "It's not that simple. In any catastrophe, the Hua family didn't contribute money or efforts. Over the years, the Hua family has raised so many victims. But relief is relief, and it is absolutely impossible to send it to you now." Not the same, why are you suddenly confused again?"
The thing is the same thing, the essence is decidedly different.
If General Lang hadn't sent a letter to clearly divide the benefits, Hua Yansui would never go to Yizhou to provide relief, even if Hua Yansu provided relief. Leizhou, so that Huajia's business can spread to every corner of Leizhou."
Hua Yan smiled: "That's very good, I bet a lot of money at the expense of my capital."
After bidding farewell to Hua Yansui, Chi Heng headed east all the way to the agreed Wushui County of Yizhou.
Chi Heng has never seen such an orderly long food transport team, with so much food, and the Hua family's guards are so neat, with such sophisticated weapons and equipment, they are as orderly as the Imperial Forest Army.
So, how is it different from Yan Wangjun?
Thanks to Hua Yansui, who only claimed land as king, and never thought of going to war, otherwise he would be a formidable enemy—maybe, this is the reason why he would form an alliance with General Lang: no one is superhuman.If Hua Yansui cannot be king, he must have a king as his backer.In troubled times, how can we do business safely and enjoy peace?
Lang will ask for help from others, and others will have to rely on Lang, so an alliance has been formed.
Chi Heng immediately thought of Yishan's Huo Chi - it was so far away, Huo Chi, An Cuo, Gu Zhaochuan, what was the result of his discussion with General Lang at that time?It seems that the red-eyed tiger has been sitting firmly in Yizhou City, and there is no civil strife.
It was impossible for Hua Yansui to raise so much grain and grass overnight, so he ordered it to be prepared by branches in various places, so new grain trucks continued to join along the road, which was orderly.
Long queue, very slow going.
What's more, the further east you go, the rainier it is, and when you cross the river, there are turbulent waves.
All kinds of letters and reports kept coming, and the most shocking thing was that several counties in the south of Pingzhou were reduced to a vast ocean overnight, the fields were flooded, and countless houses collapsed.Because of the prophecy that "heavy rain is coming, there will be no water for the savior" a few days ago, and many soldiers sent by Cen Pojing pretended to be refugees and publicized it, many refugees flocked to Wushui County, Yizhou.
Chi Heng was very anxious.
Just less than halfway to the place, there was a wave of half a foot without wind, and a storm broke out in the middle of transporting grain.
90, [-]
【89 chapters】
The food was transported to less than halfway, and there was no wind and a wave of half a foot.
The storm broke out again.
Most of the roads chosen by Chi Heng were level official roads, so they were all along the border between Yizhou and Fingzhou.Because the food transport team this time is so powerful, people can't help being suspicious and greedy.Naturally, nothing happened in Yizhou, but chaotic parties gathered in Fingzhou, and one of the bandit leaders, Qian Laosan, saw this opportunity and drove his horse to snatch it.
Hua Yansui's guards were not vegetarian either, and Pei Laoliu commanded the defense.
It is raining lightly, and the war is stalemate.Qian Laosan is like a wolf and a tiger, and his offensive is very fierce, intending to seize food.Fortunately, the guards of the Hua family came well prepared, and they were well equipped. Although they were mainly guards, they quickly drove away Qian Laosan.
But Qian Laosan refused to let it go.
The guards drove away one group, and not long after, Qian Laosan led another group - just "disturbing" and "consuming", and so on, and he didn't walk a few steps all day.
Chi Heng scouted the way ahead, and hurriedly turned back when he got the letter.
Seeing this back and forth posture, it became hot.
He galloped towards Pei Lao Liu, drew out his sword and said, "Pei Lao Liu, let the guards obey my orders!"
Pei Laoliu hesitated for a moment.
Chi Heng rode his horse forward like a torrential rain, shouted, and slashed over with a knife. Five horses' legs were broken in an instant, and the gangsters fell to the ground and rolled in the rain. The bandits who followed hurriedly drove their horses away from him.
Chi Heng was full of momentum and shouted: "This is the food of King Yan's army. Anyone who dares to snatch it will be killed!"
This time, I was shocked.
The bandits hesitated, then retreated again.
Chi Heng came back carrying a bloody knife, the black knife was drenched in rain, like Shura walking out in the dark: "Pei Lao Liu, they will definitely come again! First salute and then soldiers, how many times have we saluted, don't teach them a lesson, Not a long memory!"
Pei Laoliu was in awe: "Everything will be arranged by Deputy Chi."
Chi Heng ordered the food team to stop and summoned the guards: "On this road, there are so many bandit dens in Fenzhou. Not only Qian Laosan, but also Sun Qi and Zhao Ba, I don't know how many. The news of the grain team's passing has spread There will only be more and more people coming to grab the food, and maybe it will be even more troublesome if the gangsters form a group in the end. Our food captain can't afford it. Once we let them taste a little bit of sweetness, we can't stop them from behind. Now this Even if the food is protected by the method of expulsion as soon as they come, the refugees will starve to death in Wushui County!"
The crowd was silent.
Chi Heng pointed at the sword, but the blood on the knife had not yet dried up: "You have all seen it. If people do not attack me, I will not attack. If people come to attack, I will tell them not to leave! Those who are bloody, dare to kill them. Anyone who dares to cut, stand up!"
When he gave the order, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.
Chi Heng glanced at the crowd on horseback, and shouted sharply: "You are holding Yuanxi's best weapons, wearing the best armor, riding the best horses, and receiving Huajun's money every month, but you are weak and weak one by one. , look at the knife in your hand, are you right?"
Finally, a fierce guard stood up on horseback.
Two, three, seven or eight, dozens...
Chi Heng raised his knife and pointed at them one by one. He first selected 20 people, and then allocated 40 people: "You more than 40 people follow me. When the bandits come, you can kill them as I do. Don't have any Any scruples, if something goes wrong, we Yan Wangjun will take care of it, and I will take care of it! The [-] people behind you, listen to my order, and then kill them! The rest of the people will guard the food and grass, so there must be no mistakes."
At dusk, the sky was getting dark, so Chi Heng ordered someone to light up the lamp.
Sure enough, after a short while, Qian Laosan and his group of gangsters came back, but the number of them was much larger than before. From a distance, there were more than [-] to [-] people, each with a vicious face, like hungry wolves rushing to eat.
Chi Heng swung his knife sharply: "Kill!"
After all, he rushed out first, as fast as lightning.
The first few games were surrounded by Qian Laosan, but no matter where they saw such a fierce formation, the gangsters gathered towards Chi Heng one after another.Chi Heng was overjoyed, swung his big saber, charged into the bandits with his horse and slashed horizontally.Where the sharp knife passed, flesh and blood flew everywhere.
In an instant, everyone was stunned.
Not only Qian Laosan and other gangsters were caught off guard, but even the guards were amazed when they saw it: Chi Heng was dressed in plain clothes and didn't even wear armor, but he was brave.
Twenty guards followed behind on horseback. Seeing Chi Heng's aura, their blood surged immediately. They are also bloody men, and they are all well-trained, but they have never killed an enemy so bloody.He was entangled by bandits before, but at this time his murderous intent also arose, imitating Chi Heng's unscrupulous killing, brandishing an incomparably sophisticated knife and rushing into the bandits, killing them until the sky was dark.Soldiers are in power, once the momentum is in the body, the killing momentum is unstoppable.
Seeing this, Qian Laosan hurriedly ordered the gangsters to retreat.
Chi Heng blew out a whistle.
The forty soldiers waiting behind were eager to try, and when they heard the order, their horses broke out like bows and arrows.There was a fierce murderous look in the front, and the forty soldiers in the back were not far behind.
They are all good soldiers, with strong armor and sharp weapons, and they can kill the bandits in an instant.
Capture the thief first and capture the enemy first, Chi Heng took aim at Qian Laosan, who was full of flesh and blood, galloped with a hummer, and slashed over with a knife, only to see the head rolling to the ground with a cold light.For a moment there was panic, Chi Heng galloped past, bent over and picked up Qian Laosan's head, threw it among the thugs running around in a hurry, and said loudly: "If you dare to disturb again, just like this head!" !"
Loud.
Some gangsters clamored for revenge, Chi Heng rode his horse over, the gangsters scattered one after another, Chi Heng cut the gangster in half with a knife, blood ran like rain, turned around and said sharply: "Who else dares to come!"
Seeing this situation, there was no way to escape, and all the gangsters who were not killed got off their horses, or knelt down, or raised their flags, shouting for mercy.
The guards didn't kill them all, they only listened to Chi Heng's orders.
All was quiet.
Chi Heng was already covered in sweat and rain, standing with his sword horizontally.He didn't say a word, just whipped the horse and walked a few steps quickly. The gangsters were frightened, but seeing his eyes sweeping over them, they didn't make a sound.Finally, Chi Heng yelled angrily: "Yan Wangjun dared to grab the relief food, you have eaten the guts of a leopard, dare you come again!"
"Don't dare!"
Chi Heng waved his knife and shouted: "Get out!"
The guards got out of the way, and the rest of the bandits, who were wounded and frightened, ran away one after another.
This night's battle was really bloody, and all the blood boiled. When all the guards looked at Chi Heng, their eyes changed. They were both respectful and awed, and they all quietly waited for him to speak.
Chi Heng said calmly: "If anyone dares to invade again, just like what he did just now, kill him!"
Not long after, this matter was played up, and those rebels who originally planned to grab a little bit were all surprised: the guards of Huafu will not kill people, at least they will not kill people.But now, it's not like what was originally said, the Huafu's relief - it turned out that Yan Wangjun was specially guarding the Huajialiang team, vicious and vicious, killing like a Shura field.Can't help but weigh whether their own strength can bite off this piece of fat.
Killing chickens to scare monkeys, let alone killing a ruthless one.
Occasionally some gangsters wanted to find out, Chi Heng went out with a sharp knife, cut off one by one, and stepped on their heads to tell them that they would never dare again!With the appearance of dripping blood with a big knife in his hand, he was even more thug than a thug, and he was shocked by the impermanence of his life, let alone a thug who just wanted to take advantage of it.
After that it was calm.
The food transportation team does not need to face external disturbances, but only needs to fight against the constant rain.The progress was much faster, Pei Laoliu admired it very much, and respected Chi Heng.Not only the bandits were delayed, but also the weather was delayed. Seeing that the trip on the light road was delayed by four or five days, and the arrangement of food and grass also took a day, how many days has it been!
The bulletin that Kuai Ma sent to Cen Pojing earlier did not come back.
The surface is calm, but Chi Heng's heart is on fire.
I don't know what happened to Wushui County.
Hurrying quickly, Wushui County finally arrived, only to see the situation, Chi Heng was shocked, so many victims rushed over.
Fortunately, the county magistrate of Wushui had already attracted people to welcome him. It was really hopeful.And Cen Pojing, who was next to the county magistrate of Wushui, galloped over quickly, with messy hair and black eye circles. Among other things, he cursed: "Chi Heng, you agreed to send a quick report, why are you so muffled?" I just came here! If I hadn't heard about the Huajialiang team killing the bandits, I would have thought it was a dead end, seeing so many refugees coming..."
Although he was extremely angry, his nose was sore.
Chi Heng wiped his face: "The news is sure, I'll let Kuai Ma pass it on to you!"
What they didn't know was that the Kuaibao believer was too impatient. He walked all night and rolled down the mountain and fell unconscious. When he woke up, the day lily was cold. Seven days without water.
Not to mention the relief arrangement by the county magistrate of Anshui.
Chi Heng passed over the food and grass, hurried to the recruiting field, saw the crowds of refugees, and immediately settled down.At least there is no need to worry about the source of soldiers for the time being, and he patted Cen Pojing on the shoulder and said, "The red-eyed tiger said it is easy, and we two brothers can rest assured."
Cen Pojing was upset.
There was a flood in Fenzhou, and it was the night before it rained in Baisi Town. The rain was really rare in a hundred years. Many places were flooded that night, and there was a lot of crying.
Wen Yunbai on the side said: "You don't know, our rumors are so good that the refugees didn't ask for help from the Pingzhou government when there was a flood, but ran directly to this side, and they couldn't be stopped. Your side There was no news, and we waited to die. The county magistrate of Wushui was worried that there would be too many refugees, and he couldn’t afford it, so he wanted to block the road. Cen Pojing gritted his teeth and welcomed everyone in. Seeing so many people, We are all waiting for food, and we don't know whether there is food or not, so that is a difficult situation."
If you can't get a letter, you can't sleep or eat.
"While we were welcoming people in, we waited for news from you. After two or three days, there was still no movement. The county magistrate of Wushui was crazy, and he refused to let him in again. The food stock in Wushui County has survived. We will be at ease when we hear the news that Qian Laosan was beheaded!" Even though it was shocking, Wen Yunbai said it softly.
Chi Heng felt guilty: "I didn't think carefully, so I should send another person."
"To be honest, there was no water and no food yesterday. We were really hungry and waiting." Well, at least the news of the battle of the Huafu guards came, and everyone's hearts were settled immediately. Hungry is happiness of.

【Ninety Chapters】
On that day, Chi Heng relaxed all over and fell asleep with the sound of falling rain on his pillow.
The people in the dream come and go, Chi Heng is leaning on the saddle, the snowy green horse is gnawing the grass with its head down, the drizzle is like cotton, the foggy weather is very comfortable, but after a while, the cold air seeps into the soles of the feet, so they toss and turn to absorb the warmth.
But soon, Chi Heng was awakened by the heat in his abdomen.
Opening his eyes, Cen Pojing and Yun Bai next to him were soundly asleep.It was still daylight, Chi Heng got up lightly, ran outside and practiced a set of saber techniques, but felt that it was not enough, tried to practice a few new moves, sweated all over, and took more than half an hour before putting away the saber.
Wen Yunbai stood under the tree: "Vice Chief Chi, do you wake up so early every day?"
Chi Heng smiled: "Practice, you will feel strong."
In October, the wind is cool.Seeing that Wen Yunbai's clothes were extremely thin, and most of the civil servants were weak, no stronger than himself, Chi Heng couldn't help reminding: "The governor should wear more clothes, there will be plagues after the flood, so don't get sick."
Yunbai smiled.
Chi Heng knew it was powerful, so he specially ordered some herbs, and ordered the cook to boil the medicine for Yun Bai and Cen Pojing to drink.
The most turbulent situation has passed, the three of them discussed and decided to let Cen Pojing lead these soldiers back to Wuzhi training first, and set off tomorrow.And Chi Heng and Yun Bai stayed in Wushui County to continue recruiting, and when it was almost the same time, they would take them back to Wuzhi County.
That's the big picture.
The issue of grain and grass had not yet been settled, so Chi Heng asked Yun Bai to negotiate with Pei Laoliu of Huafu to see how much was transported back to Wuzhi County, how much was left here, and other trivial matters were dealt with together.
Cen Po, Jing Chiheng and the two went to inspect the temporary barracks together.
It is called a barracks, but it is just a grass shed built in the open space.Soldiers joined the group because they were in trouble and had nowhere to go. Most of them were young and had nothing to do. They gathered in small groups and chatted enthusiastically.
Some people are depressed and cannot help themselves when they become soldiers; others are excited and happy that they are finally saved. It is better to follow Yan Wangjun than die in the flood.
As long as there is a good agreement, everyone will be excited afterward.
After Chi Heng strolled around for a few times, he picked out all those high-spirited soldiers, and placed about twenty of them elsewhere.Cen Pojing saw that he had finished deploying, and smiled: "What are you going to do? You are really treacherous, and it's easy to use your strength to fight."
Chi Heng smiled: "I'm not as domineering as you, so it's natural to use this method to greet everyone to come."
The method he said was to put the selected soldiers in the pile of victims and chat with those young victims.Some young victims were rescued, but they didn't really want to serve as soldiers. Most of them survived the hardest days with food and then scattered to other places in Yizhou.
They are all people from the same place, and they empathize with each other.
The soldiers lobbied for a while, talking about the current difficulties, not to mention Yuan Xi's life is hard everywhere, so it's better to follow Yan Wangjun and still have something to eat.With such agitation, those who were hesitant made up their minds and enlisted in the army.
Everything has a momentum, people like to watch others make decisions, one encourages one, one persuades the other, and soon a trend is formed.When the spirit is good, hope is born.
Chi Heng specially arranged for Huafu's guards to stand beside the recruitment, all in high spirits.
It is not comparable to the kind of mixed soldiers.
When people see it, their confidence doubles.
Looking at the endless stream of applicants, Cen Pojing sighed sincerely: "This method saves effort! A few days ago, Yun Bai and I took turns to fight, and we talked about it. It was because people were hungry and crazy that they recruited so many people." Soldiers. Now the lively situation is catching up with the time of starvation and scrambling for food."
Chi Heng said: "This is the first step. It's up to you to keep people recruited."
The two looked at each other and smiled, Cen Pojing changed the subject, and said distressedly: "I'm afraid Yun Bai is not suitable to be our counselor. He is too soft-tempered, and he does things slowly, and he can kill people in a hurry. Got angry at him several times."
Chi Heng thought for a while: "Yun Bai is indeed a bit slower, but it's not that he has a slow temper, but that he thinks more. We all do what we say and think less, it's different."
"He's too weak to accept him."
"The recruit doesn't know the rules, right? You don't have to worry about it. With me around, no one will bully him."
"How long can you protect him?"
"It's not a nurse. Yun Bai is a very nice person. He is careful and clear-headed. He arranges everything unambiguously. The counselors are all the same, and if they don't rely on them to charge forward, whoever rolls up his sleeves and fights with others can be a civil servant?"
Cen Pojing remained silent.
"Pojing, you can't expect every counselor to be as easy to catch as Ji Ce once they come out."
"I know this. Everyone has a fledgling time. This is not the key. In fact, I really want a counselor like Zuo Zhao. Don't be so cautious and cowardly, and be respected in everything you do."
"Haha, you like Zuo Zhao, but it's a pity we won't be able to pry him out as a partner with Liang Huzi."
Cen Pojing raised his eyebrows: "What nonsense are you talking about? I like how generous Zuo Zhao is. He stands there, smiles, and talks again. That's true. Everything you say makes people believe it."
Chi Heng laughed loudly: "So you were tricked by Zuo Zhao."
Cen Pojing was furious and funny: "What and what, what I think about all day long, I thought it was the same as when you met General Lang—I can't tell you! Anyway, the counselor in my heart is like Zuo Zhao! Later we Go to Duan Di's side to look for one, and secretly tell Liang Huzi or General Lang to dig it up."
They're all Yan Wangjun, don't be so sneaky and shameless!
Chi Heng couldn't help laughing: "It's not that easy, I still want to pick something ready-made, let Liang Huzi give you Zuo Zhao, and see if he is willing or not. They must have worked together for a long time before they became perfect. Don't pick and choose, Yun White is pretty good, I am afraid that the embryo will not be able to carve good jade."
"All right, all right, I didn't say he's bad." Cen Pojing muttered, "I'll lead the troops back tomorrow, what do you have to say?"
"From the individuals I selected today, I will nominate a few to be chief executives, and you will take the rest." A chief executive is a small leader who can manage 100 people.
"It's up to you."
On the same day, Wen Yunbai and Pei Laoliu had all delivered, and the food and grass were distributed in an orderly manner.The next day, Cen Pojing gathered all the recruited soldiers, transported food and grass, and left Wushui County in a mighty way.
Everything was in order, Chi Heng approached Pei Lao Liu, talked about the guards of Hua Mansion, and tried to ask if he could bring the dozens of people who took the lead that day, and follow him if he wanted to.
Pei Laoliu shook his head resolutely: "It's absolutely impossible, as many people come out, as many people have to go back, otherwise Mr. Hua will scold the villain to death."
Chi Heng smiled and asked them to stay for another three days.
Pei Laoliu agreed.
The recruitment on this side was in full swing, and Chi Heng selected ten more from the active soldiers he had selected to serve as centurions, so that the centurions would show off their skills to recruit people while arranging the victims.
Relief is a great thing, so the hundred leaders are all high-spirited, and they are active one by one.
When there are too many people, there will be chaos, and there will be no discipline.The current military discipline is the military discipline of King Yan's army, which is mostly used for marching troops.At present, relief and recruitment are the main focus, so the soldiers are not serious.
Chi Heng asked Wen Yunbai to write overnight, detailing military discipline, and clearly distinguishing rewards and punishments.
At night, Chi Heng gathered all the recruited soldiers and lined them up neatly.He stood on the high platform with a big knife in his hand, and there was no sound from below.After a few simple lectures, Chi Heng asked Wen Yunbai to read the military discipline in public.
Wen Yunbai's voice was gentle and soft, and the military system was also heckled Qu's teeth, making everyone confused.
Soon the soldiers below got impatient and started whispering.Seeing this, Wen Yunbai stopped first.
With a grim expression, Chi Heng picked up a long whip next to him and slammed it into the air. The whistling sound resounded through the night, and he was immediately solemn.Chi Heng's voice was resounding: "This is the first whip, and it's a warning. If anyone disobeys the prohibition and treats military discipline like nothing, Governor Wen, how should he be punished?"
"For the first offense, ten lashes are given; for the second offense, thirty lashes are given; for the third offense, one hundred lashes are given; for serious offenses, beheading!"
Immediately no one spoke.
Chi Heng said calmly, "Governor Wen, continue reading."
Afterwards, everything went smoothly. Wen Yunbai's voice became three points louder, and he finished preaching all the military discipline.Chi Heng stepped down from the high platform and ordered everyone to come forward and sit in a circle around himself and Wen Yunbai. His expression softened: "Anyone who doesn't understand military discipline can ask the governor, and the governor will answer them in detail. .”
No one spoke.
Chi Heng smiled slightly: "If you don't understand, just ask. Don't be rigid. Know what you can and can't do. Don't wait until you commit a crime before thinking of asking. Baichang comes first!" After finishing speaking, he pointed at them one by one.
The centurions were very enthusiastic, starting with the first question.
Wen Yunbai answered one by one in very common words.First the hundred chiefs asked, and later some bold soldiers asked, and soon it became lively, one by one calling for the governor, Wen
Even so, Chi Heng smiled calmly and said, "General Lang has given me full authority over the matter of recruiting troops and buying horses. Even if he doesn't say anything, he will acquiesce."
Hua Yan followed suit: "You are making decisions without authorization."
Chi Heng was embarrassed.
"White wolf with empty gloves, and what I drew for me is a cake on paper. Even if I agree to this kind of business, my manager and big shopkeepers will definitely not agree." The long eyelashes covered the eyes, "Chi Heng, today Wuweilou specially made a Baiqiu feast for you to cleanse the dust, and put the trivial things aside. It's rare to have such a leisurely life."
Sleeping in the side hall of Huafu, looking at the super luxurious guest room, Chi Heng breathed a sigh of relief.
toss and turns.
Thinking about how to impress Hua Yansui.
The next day, the sky was clear, and Chi Heng took the opportunity to tell Hua Yansui about the bravery of King Yan's army, how he was invincible when he stepped on Pingchuan.Hua Yansui still listened with a smile, but bluntly refused.
It was like this for three consecutive days.
Rao Chi Heng talked like a river every day, Hua Yansui was still reclining on the couch, the waves were calm, the clouds were calm and the wind was clear.Chi Heng was in a hurry, seeing that it was already October, and there was no movement here.The flood is imminent, and if it is a few days late, it may not be possible to do anything in time.
In addition, the weather was surprisingly good and the sun was shining brightly.
With sparse shadows and slanting shadows, the scenery of Huafu is even more exciting than Xanadu.
If Chi Heng hadn't seen Zhuang Qi's ability, he would have doubted that the so-called "Da Shui" must be a nonsense - not to doubt, but in fact his heart began to waver, and he insisted on it.The gratifying thing is that Hua Yansui didn't even drive him away, but also liked to ask him about the local conditions and customs of Kuzi County, Ningzhou, Sizhou, especially Kuzi. With relish.
In this way, for three days, Chi Heng thought he had become a storyteller.
On the fourth day, when Chi Heng was grinding his mouth again, a letter came: Lang Jiang's letter.
He was ecstatic.
The guards of Huafu brought the reporter in, and before he could ask any more questions, Chi Heng eagerly opened the letters, one was for himself, the other was for Hua Yansui, the letters were very thick—Chi Heng handed them to Hua without the original letter. Yan Sui.
89 eighty-nine
【89】
The letter to Chi Heng was concise and clear, with two lines: all weapons are on credit, and the salt in Leizhou is exempted from tax for five years in exchange;
And a big "secret" word.
No more words, not even taking care of yourself.
Chi Heng was stunned.
Immediately shocked and burst of ecstasy, this is timely charcoal, when seeing nowhere to go, Lang Jiang's letter is the water to put out the fire!With such generous conditions, will Hua Yansui still be reserved?
And Huayan read the thick letter to him, her lazy expression disappeared, and a light flashed across her face.In the past, when looking at people, it seemed like he was looking at him or not, but now when looking at people, his eyes are shining brightly, more eye-catching than the jewels on his body.
like two different people.
Chi Heng was surprised by his radiance, and tried to say: "I don't know if Lang will explain it to Mr. Hua."
Hua Yan smiled with the corner of his mouth: "You guys have figured it out, let him not be so rigid. This is a great thing. Huafu can form an alliance with Yan Wangjun, and it will be smooth sailing in the future; Yan Wangjun has flowers. The help from the government must also be like adding wings to a tiger, the best of both worlds, this king is more than I can ask for."
ah?Is this what happened?Is it a little too fast, too overwhelming?
"Army rations..."
Hua Yansui was very proud: "Since it is an alliance, I will naturally do my best. Yan Wangjun naturally doesn't need to worry about food, grass and weapons. Come and serve chrysanthemum wine. I want to have a few cups with Vice President Chi!"
The two sides congratulated each other, after a few glasses of chrysanthemum wine.
Seeing Huayan follow Wei Xun, Chi Heng boldly asked: "Mr. Hua, what I said earlier is the same as General Lang said, why are you not at all moved?"
Hua Yansui laughed dumbfounded: "The difference is huge."
"What's the difference?"
"One, what you said is different from what Yan Luan said."
The position is different, Yan Luan is the general who controls life and death, and he is in charge of everything, and he is still a deputy, so he can only talk about making cakes.
"Second, you only talk about the many benefits, you also talk about salt, you also talk about silk, and you also talk about Wuzhi County, but you don't talk about how the benefits are divided."
The interests are not clear, Hua Yan decides how to decide.
"Third, even if Yan Luan comes in person, if I keep talking with me about the county, the sky, the battle, and the people, I will just treat it as listening to anecdotes. It's not too much, just hit the point. Even It doesn't matter if you say it badly." Hua Yansui took a sip of the wine, his eyes full of alcohol, "Chi Heng, you don't have to be depressed. If ordinary people can't speak the point, I can't get enough of a cup of tea. It's dismissed. It's just you, talking nonsense, I can still allow you to stay here for a few days."
Chi Heng was silent.
After being slightly drunk, Hua Yansui is even more splendid.
His subordinates had already arrived at the order, and he left after saying that he wanted to arrange food and other matters in the Qinjian Building.
Chi Heng was left alone, with a jug of wine and a few dishes of side dishes, to savor by himself.
He recalled several times how he had tortured Hua Yansui in the past few days, what Hua Yansui said, what Lang Jiang said, and even the details of Ji Ce's negotiations with others, he carefully pondered over them.Just now he thought that his own people were soft-spoken, so Hua Yan Sui didn't believe it when he said there was a flood; but Yan Luan was a general, and Hua Yan Sui obviously believed it very much when he said there was a flood.
Actually?
It does matter who said it.
Most importantly, did you talk about what Huayan wanted to hear and wanted.
What Hua Yansui is concerned about is not whether there will be a flood, but whether it will benefit.Whether it's a big deal or not, he just pays his share and waits for the profit.So, he would say, he doesn't care about celestial phenomena.
What happens to the sky, only myself and Cen Pojing will pay attention.
In the same way, Chi Heng would rather pay attention to how to chase deserters after the capture of the base state, but he would never pay attention to such matters as how to collect the salt tax, how to collect the silk tax, and how to collect the farmland after the capture of the base state—because, These have nothing to do with him.Actually, aren't these affairs important?That is also a matter of people's livelihood for a lifetime!
It's all the same, with different concerns.
The focus is naturally different.
Originally thought that Huayan followed the cold blood and didn't care about the people's livelihood, but it was not the case, when Chi Heng thought about it like this, it was like enlightenment, and he felt that everything was jerky.
Thanks to Lang for this help.
Just in time.
General Lang sees farther and farther than himself. He must have weighed the pros and cons and considered the future of Leizhou and Wuzhi County if he can hand over the future—but, General Lang, do you believe that there will be floods? ——It seems that this is not important to Lang Jiang, what is important is the alliance with Hua Yansui.
Don't look at Hua Yansui's usual lazy appearance, ordering things to act vigorously, one thing is done properly.Just like dispatching troops and generals, everyone's responsibilities are clear, and an experienced manager named Pei Laoliu is specially assigned to contact Chi Heng.
Not long after, after everything was ordered, Hua Yan returned to the wine seat.
Pei Laoliu was left to sit with Chi Heng.Hua Yan then asked in detail, when the flood would occur, and where Yan Wang's army would accept the refugees; if there was no flood, where would the Hua family's food and grass go;
Chi Heng said everything.
For some things that he didn't think of himself, Hua Yansui gave him some ideas.
methodical.
It was as if the flood had come.
Seeing that Hua Yansui was completely different from the previous laziness, when arranging these affairs, she was completely confident.Chi Heng was a little dazed, and said with a smile: "Mr. Hua, you have arranged it so carefully, in case, I mean in case the water is not delivered, will you not believe me anymore?"
"Shouldn't you recruit troops if you don't get angry?" Hua Yan asked back with a smile.
"Do you believe we will win?"
"I didn't believe that much at first, but you have been nagging me for four days, and you can't believe it. On this point, you are the same as you generals. You obviously don't have a single soldier in your hand, and you can't believe it. Of course , I believe in him even more, I believe that everything he promises will be given to me." Hua Yansui laughed for the first time, laughing heartily, the sapphire blue dress was radiant and eye-catching.
Any transaction is a bet.
Chi Heng also smiled happily, ha, it seems that I am not completely useless these days.
It took less than two hours from receiving General Lang's letter, to summoning his subordinates, to ordering everything, and then to arranging the details.
Hua Yansui's speed is astonishing.
A big rock can be regarded as falling to the ground. That night, Chi Heng didn't think about how Lang Jiang believed in himself based on a letter.In short, he has so much trust in himself, and he really can't live up to his expectations; when everything is settled, he must go back to General Lang, tell him what happened now, and tell him how anxious and even desperate he was before. Hope abounds in letters.
Thinking of this, he sank into a dream.
In a dim dream, Yan Luan stood by the lotus pond, dressed in red, letting the rain fall from her hair.
Chi Heng was overjoyed and bent down to pick red lotuses for him.
But the red lotus is like long feet, swimming and swimming and swimming far away.In a panic, Chi Heng jumped into the water with a thud, caught Hong Lian in a panic, grabbed her, and swam back happily to claim credit.
Yan Luan didn't look back.
Chi Heng stepped forward, gently hugged Yan Luan from behind, tapped the corner of his cold lips, and said in a hoarse voice: "General Lang, don't worry, I'm by your side, and I will be with you forever, forever."
Bang Dang, Bang Dang.
A loud bang shattered the dream.
When Chi Heng woke up, it turned out that the windows were rattling due to the heavy rain. He was startled and jumped up quickly.At this time, the situation changed suddenly, thunder and lightning roared furiously, and it really started to rain heavily, as if trying to uproot towering trees, it was very frightening.
After a while, a layer of water accumulated, and the rain became heavier and heavier.
Chi Heng didn't know whether to be happy or sad - he should be grateful for this disaster, which weakened the power of Fenzhou and relieved his urgent needs, but natural disasters are natural disasters, and how many people changed their fate because of natural disasters.
Before leaving, the rain had lightened and the clouds had dispersed.
I don't know where the clouds are going.
During breakfast, Hua Yan said leisurely: "I just received the letter last night. The rain in Shuzhou and Fingzhou was a whole day earlier than ours. It started to rain the night before. I thought it was the autumn rain and I didn't worry about it." From this point of view, I am afraid that it will really cause a flood.”
Predictions come true.
Chi Heng asked Hua Yansui: "If General Lang didn't hear from him, would Mr. Hua not care about flood relief at all?"
Hua Yansui was puzzled: "It's not that simple. In any catastrophe, the Hua family didn't contribute money or efforts. Over the years, the Hua family has raised so many victims. But relief is relief, and it is absolutely impossible to send it to you now." Not the same, why are you suddenly confused again?"
The thing is the same thing, the essence is decidedly different.
If General Lang hadn't sent a letter to clearly divide the benefits, Hua Yansui would never go to Yizhou to provide relief, even if Hua Yansu provided relief. Leizhou, so that Huajia's business can spread to every corner of Leizhou."
Hua Yan smiled: "That's very good, I bet a lot of money at the expense of my capital."
After bidding farewell to Hua Yansui, Chi Heng headed east all the way to the agreed Wushui County of Yizhou.
Chi Heng has never seen such an orderly long food transport team, with so much food, and the Hua family's guards are so neat, with such sophisticated weapons and equipment, they are as orderly as the Imperial Forest Army.
So, how is it different from Yan Wangjun?
Thanks to Hua Yansui, who only claimed land as king, and never thought of going to war, otherwise he would be a formidable enemy—maybe, this is the reason why he would form an alliance with General Lang: no one is superhuman.If Hua Yansui cannot be king, he must have a king as his backer.In troubled times, how can we do business safely and enjoy peace?
Lang will ask for help from others, and others will have to rely on Lang, so an alliance has been formed.
Chi Heng immediately thought of Yishan's Huo Chi - it was so far away, Huo Chi, An Cuo, Gu Zhaochuan, what was the result of his discussion with General Lang at that time?It seems that the red-eyed tiger has been sitting firmly in Yizhou City, and there is no civil strife.
It was impossible for Hua Yansui to raise so much grain and grass overnight, so he ordered it to be prepared by branches in various places, so new grain trucks continued to join along the road, which was orderly.
Long queue, very slow going.
What's more, the further east you go, the rainier it is, and when you cross the river, there are turbulent waves.
All kinds of letters and reports kept coming, and the most shocking thing was that several counties in the south of Pingzhou were reduced to a vast ocean overnight, the fields were flooded, and countless houses collapsed.Because of the prophecy that "heavy rain is coming, there will be no water for the savior" a few days ago, and many soldiers sent by Cen Pojing pretended to be refugees and publicized it, many refugees flocked to Wushui County, Yizhou.
Chi Heng was very anxious.
Just less than halfway to the place, there was a wave of half a foot without wind, and a storm broke out in the middle of transporting grain.
90, [-]
【89 chapters】
The food was transported to less than halfway, and there was no wind and a wave of half a foot.
The storm broke out again.
Most of the roads chosen by Chi Heng were level official roads, so they were all along the border between Yizhou and Fingzhou.Because the food transport team this time is so powerful, people can't help being suspicious and greedy.Naturally, nothing happened in Yizhou, but chaotic parties gathered in Fingzhou, and one of the bandit leaders, Qian Laosan, saw this opportunity and drove his horse to snatch it.
Hua Yansui's guards were not vegetarian either, and Pei Laoliu commanded the defense.
It is raining lightly, and the war is stalemate.Qian Laosan is like a wolf and a tiger, and his offensive is very fierce, intending to seize food.Fortunately, the guards of the Hua family came well prepared, and they were well equipped. Although they were mainly guards, they quickly drove away Qian Laosan.
But Qian Laosan refused to let it go.
The guards drove away one group, and not long after, Qian Laosan led another group - just "disturbing" and "consuming", and so on, and he didn't walk a few steps all day.
Chi Heng scouted the way ahead, and hurriedly turned back when he got the letter.
Seeing this back and forth posture, it became hot.
He galloped towards Pei Lao Liu, drew out his sword and said, "Pei Lao Liu, let the guards obey my orders!"
Pei Laoliu hesitated for a moment.
Chi Heng rode his horse forward like a torrential rain, shouted, and slashed over with a knife. Five horses' legs were broken in an instant, and the gangsters fell to the ground and rolled in the rain. The bandits who followed hurriedly drove their horses away from him.
Chi Heng was full of momentum and shouted: "This is the food of King Yan's army. Anyone who dares to snatch it will be killed!"
This time, I was shocked.
The bandits hesitated, then retreated again.
Chi Heng came back carrying a bloody knife, the black knife was drenched in rain, like Shura walking out in the dark: "Pei Lao Liu, they will definitely come again! First salute and then soldiers, how many times have we saluted, don't teach them a lesson, Not a long memory!"
Pei Laoliu was in awe: "Everything will be arranged by Deputy Chi."
Chi Heng ordered the food team to stop and summoned the guards: "On this road, there are so many bandit dens in Fenzhou. Not only Qian Laosan, but also Sun Qi and Zhao Ba, I don't know how many. The news of the grain team's passing has spread There will only be more and more people coming to grab the food, and maybe it will be even more troublesome if the gangsters form a group in the end. Our food captain can't afford it. Once we let them taste a little bit of sweetness, we can't stop them from behind. Now this Even if the food is protected by the method of expulsion as soon as they come, the refugees will starve to death in Wushui County!"
The crowd was silent.
Chi Heng pointed at the sword, but the blood on the knife had not yet dried up: "You have all seen it. If people do not attack me, I will not attack. If people come to attack, I will tell them not to leave! Those who are bloody, dare to kill them. Anyone who dares to cut, stand up!"
When he gave the order, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.
Chi Heng glanced at the crowd on horseback, and shouted sharply: "You are holding Yuanxi's best weapons, wearing the best armor, riding the best horses, and receiving Huajun's money every month, but you are weak and weak one by one. , look at the knife in your hand, are you right?"
Finally, a fierce guard stood up on horseback.
Two, three, seven or eight, dozens...
Chi Heng raised his knife and pointed at them one by one. He first selected 20 people, and then allocated 40 people: "You more than 40 people follow me. When the bandits come, you can kill them as I do. Don't have any Any scruples, if something goes wrong, we Yan Wangjun will take care of it, and I will take care of it! The [-] people behind you, listen to my order, and then kill them! The rest of the people will guard the food and grass, so there must be no mistakes."
At dusk, the sky was getting dark, so Chi Heng ordered someone to light up the lamp.
Sure enough, after a short while, Qian Laosan and his group of gangsters came back, but the number of them was much larger than before. From a distance, there were more than [-] to [-] people, each with a vicious face, like hungry wolves rushing to eat.
Chi Heng swung his knife sharply: "Kill!"
After all, he rushed out first, as fast as lightning.
The first few games were surrounded by Qian Laosan, but no matter where they saw such a fierce formation, the gangsters gathered towards Chi Heng one after another.Chi Heng was overjoyed, swung his big saber, charged into the bandits with his horse and slashed horizontally.Where the sharp knife passed, flesh and blood flew everywhere.
In an instant, everyone was stunned.
Not only Qian Laosan and other gangsters were caught off guard, but even the guards were amazed when they saw it: Chi Heng was dressed in plain clothes and didn't even wear armor, but he was brave.
Twenty guards followed behind on horseback. Seeing Chi Heng's aura, their blood surged immediately. They are also bloody men, and they are all well-trained, but they have never killed an enemy so bloody.He was entangled by bandits before, but at this time his murderous intent also arose, imitating Chi Heng's unscrupulous killing, brandishing an incomparably sophisticated knife and rushing into the bandits, killing them until the sky was dark.Soldiers are in power, once the momentum is in the body, the killing momentum is unstoppable.
Seeing this, Qian Laosan hurriedly ordered the gangsters to retreat.
Chi Heng blew out a whistle.
The forty soldiers waiting behind were eager to try, and when they heard the order, their horses broke out like bows and arrows.There was a fierce murderous look in the front, and the forty soldiers in the back were not far behind.
They are all good soldiers, with strong armor and sharp weapons, and they can kill the bandits in an instant.
Capture the thief first and capture the enemy first, Chi Heng took aim at Qian Laosan, who was full of flesh and blood, galloped with a hummer, and slashed over with a knife, only to see the head rolling to the ground with a cold light.For a moment there was panic, Chi Heng galloped past, bent over and picked up Qian Laosan's head, threw it among the thugs running around in a hurry, and said loudly: "If you dare to disturb again, just like this head!" !"
Loud.
Some gangsters clamored for revenge, Chi Heng rode his horse over, the gangsters scattered one after another, Chi Heng cut the gangster in half with a knife, blood ran like rain, turned around and said sharply: "Who else dares to come!"
Seeing this situation, there was no way to escape, and all the gangsters who were not killed got off their horses, or knelt down, or raised their flags, shouting for mercy.
The guards didn't kill them all, they only listened to Chi Heng's orders.
All was quiet.
Chi Heng was already covered in sweat and rain, standing with his sword horizontally.He didn't say a word, just whipped the horse and walked a few steps quickly. The gangsters were frightened, but seeing his eyes sweeping over them, they didn't make a sound.Finally, Chi Heng yelled angrily: "Yan Wangjun dared to grab the relief food, you have eaten the guts of a leopard, dare you come again!"
"Don't dare!"
Chi Heng waved his knife and shouted: "Get out!"
The guards got out of the way, and the rest of the bandits, who were wounded and frightened, ran away one after another.
This night's battle was really bloody, and all the blood boiled. When all the guards looked at Chi Heng, their eyes changed. They were both respectful and awed, and they all quietly waited for him to speak.
Chi Heng said calmly: "If anyone dares to invade again, just like what he did just now, kill him!"
Not long after, this matter was played up, and those rebels who originally planned to grab a little bit were all surprised: the guards of Huafu will not kill people, at least they will not kill people.But now, it's not like what was originally said, the Huafu's relief - it turned out that Yan Wangjun was specially guarding the Huajialiang team, vicious and vicious, killing like a Shura field.Can't help but weigh whether their own strength can bite off this piece of fat.
Killing chickens to scare monkeys, let alone killing a ruthless one.
Occasionally some gangsters wanted to find out, Chi Heng went out with a sharp knife, cut off one by one, and stepped on their heads to tell them that they would never dare again!With the appearance of dripping blood with a big knife in his hand, he was even more thug than a thug, and he was shocked by the impermanence of his life, let alone a thug who just wanted to take advantage of it.
After that it was calm.
The food transportation team does not need to face external disturbances, but only needs to fight against the constant rain.The progress was much faster, Pei Laoliu admired it very much, and respected Chi Heng.Not only the bandits were delayed, but also the weather was delayed. Seeing that the trip on the light road was delayed by four or five days, and the arrangement of food and grass also took a day, how many days has it been!
The bulletin that Kuai Ma sent to Cen Pojing earlier did not come back.
The surface is calm, but Chi Heng's heart is on fire.
I don't know what happened to Wushui County.
Hurrying quickly, Wushui County finally arrived, only to see the situation, Chi Heng was shocked, so many victims rushed over.
Fortunately, the county magistrate of Wushui had already attracted people to welcome him. It was really hopeful.And Cen Pojing, who was next to the county magistrate of Wushui, galloped over quickly, with messy hair and black eye circles. Among other things, he cursed: "Chi Heng, you agreed to send a quick report, why are you so muffled?" I just came here! If I hadn't heard about the Huajialiang team killing the bandits, I would have thought it was a dead end, seeing so many refugees coming..."
Although he was extremely angry, his nose was sore.
Chi Heng wiped his face: "The news is sure, I'll let Kuai Ma pass it on to you!"
What they didn't know was that the Kuaibao believer was too impatient. He walked all night and rolled down the mountain and fell unconscious. When he woke up, the day lily was cold. Seven days without water.
Not to mention the relief arrangement by the county magistrate of Anshui.
Chi Heng passed over the food and grass, hurried to the recruiting field, saw the crowds of refugees, and immediately settled down.At least there is no need to worry about the source of soldiers for the time being, and he patted Cen Pojing on the shoulder and said, "The red-eyed tiger said it is easy, and we two brothers can rest assured."
Cen Pojing was upset.
There was a flood in Fenzhou, and it was the night before it rained in Baisi Town. The rain was really rare in a hundred years. Many places were flooded that night, and there was a lot of crying.
Wen Yunbai on the side said: "You don't know, our rumors are so good that the refugees didn't ask for help from the Pingzhou government when there was a flood, but ran directly to this side, and they couldn't be stopped. Your side There was no news, and we waited to die. The county magistrate of Wushui was worried that there would be too many refugees, and he couldn’t afford it, so he wanted to block the road. Cen Pojing gritted his teeth and welcomed everyone in. Seeing so many people, We are all waiting for food, and we don't know whether there is food or not, so that is a difficult situation."
If you can't get a letter, you can't sleep or eat.
"While we were welcoming people in, we waited for news from you. After two or three days, there was still no movement. The county magistrate of Wushui was crazy, and he refused to let him in again. The food stock in Wushui County has survived. We will be at ease when we hear the news that Qian Laosan was beheaded!" Even though it was shocking, Wen Yunbai said it softly.
Chi Heng felt guilty: "I didn't think carefully, so I should send another person."
"To be honest, there was no water and no food yesterday. We were really hungry and waiting." Well, at least the news of the battle of the Huafu guards came, and everyone's hearts were settled immediately. Hungry is happiness of.

【Ninety Chapters】
On that day, Chi Heng relaxed all over and fell asleep with the sound of falling rain on his pillow.
The people in the dream come and go, Chi Heng is leaning on the saddle, the snowy green horse is gnawing the grass with its head down, the drizzle is like cotton, the foggy weather is very comfortable, but after a while, the cold air seeps into the soles of the feet, so they toss and turn to absorb the warmth.
But soon, Chi Heng was awakened by the heat in his abdomen.
Opening his eyes, Cen Pojing and Yun Bai next to him were soundly asleep.It was still daylight, Chi Heng got up lightly, ran outside and practiced a set of saber techniques, but felt that it was not enough, tried to practice a few new moves, sweated all over, and took more than half an hour before putting away the saber.
Wen Yunbai stood under the tree: "Vice Chief Chi, do you wake up so early every day?"
Chi Heng smiled: "Practice, you will feel strong."
In October, the wind is cool.Seeing that Wen Yunbai's clothes were extremely thin, and most of the civil servants were weak, no stronger than himself, Chi Heng couldn't help reminding: "The governor should wear more clothes, there will be plagues after the flood, so don't get sick."
Yunbai smiled.
Chi Heng knew it was powerful, so he specially ordered some herbs, and ordered the cook to boil the medicine for Yun Bai and Cen Pojing to drink.
The most turbulent situation has passed, the three of them discussed and decided to let Cen Pojing lead these soldiers back to Wuzhi training first, and set off tomorrow.And Chi Heng and Yun Bai stayed in Wushui County to continue recruiting, and when it was almost the same time, they would take them back to Wuzhi County.
That's the big picture.
The issue of grain and grass had not yet been settled, so Chi Heng asked Yun Bai to negotiate with Pei Laoliu of Huafu to see how much was transported back to Wuzhi County, how much was left here, and other trivial matters were dealt with together.
Cen Po, Jing Chiheng and the two went to inspect the temporary barracks together.
It is called a barracks, but it is just a grass shed built in the open space.Soldiers joined the group because they were in trouble and had nowhere to go. Most of them were young and had nothing to do. They gathered in small groups and chatted enthusiastically.
Some people are depressed and cannot help themselves when they become soldiers; others are excited and happy that they are finally saved. It is better to follow Yan Wangjun than die in the flood.
As long as there is a good agreement, everyone will be excited afterward.
After Chi Heng strolled around for a few times, he picked out all those high-spirited soldiers, and placed about twenty of them elsewhere.Cen Pojing saw that he had finished deploying, and smiled: "What are you going to do? You are really treacherous, and it's easy to use your strength to fight."
Chi Heng smiled: "I'm not as domineering as you, so it's natural to use this method to greet everyone to come."
The method he said was to put the selected soldiers in the pile of victims and chat with those young victims.Some young victims were rescued, but they didn't really want to serve as soldiers. Most of them survived the hardest days with food and then scattered to other places in Yizhou.
They are all people from the same place, and they empathize with each other.
The soldiers lobbied for a while, talking about the current difficulties, not to mention Yuan Xi's life is hard everywhere, so it's better to follow Yan Wangjun and still have something to eat.With such agitation, those who were hesitant made up their minds and enlisted in the army.
Everything has a momentum, people like to watch others make decisions, one encourages one, one persuades the other, and soon a trend is formed.When the spirit is good, hope is born.
Chi Heng specially arranged for Huafu's guards to stand beside the recruitment, all in high spirits.
It is not comparable to the kind of mixed soldiers.
When people see it, their confidence doubles.
Looking at the endless stream of applicants, Cen Pojing sighed sincerely: "This method saves effort! A few days ago, Yun Bai and I took turns to fight, and we talked about it. It was because people were hungry and crazy that they recruited so many people." Soldiers. Now the lively situation is catching up with the time of starvation and scrambling for food."
Chi Heng said: "This is the first step. It's up to you to keep people recruited."
The two looked at each other and smiled, Cen Pojing changed the subject, and said distressedly: "I'm afraid Yun Bai is not suitable to be our counselor. He is too soft-tempered, and he does things slowly, and he can kill people in a hurry. Got angry at him several times."
Chi Heng thought for a while: "Yun Bai is indeed a bit slower, but it's not that he has a slow temper, but that he thinks more. We all do what we say and think less, it's different."
"He's too weak to accept him."
"The recruit doesn't know the rules, right? You don't have to worry about it. With me around, no one will bully him."
"How long can you protect him?"
"It's not a nurse. Yun Bai is a very nice person. He is careful and clear-headed. He arranges everything unambiguously. The counselors are all the same, and if they don't rely on them to charge forward, whoever rolls up his sleeves and fights with others can be a civil servant?"
Cen Pojing remained silent.
"Pojing, you can't expect every counselor to be as easy to catch as Ji Ce once they come out."
"I know this. Everyone has a fledgling time. This is not the key. In fact, I really want a counselor like Zuo Zhao. Don't be so cautious and cowardly, and be respected in everything you do."
"Haha, you like Zuo Zhao, but it's a pity we won't be able to pry him out as a partner with Liang Huzi."
Cen Pojing raised his eyebrows: "What nonsense are you talking about? I like how generous Zuo Zhao is. He stands there, smiles, and talks again. That's true. Everything you say makes people believe it."
Chi Heng laughed loudly: "So you were tricked by Zuo Zhao."
Cen Pojing was furious and funny: "What and what, what I think about all day long, I thought it was the same as when you met General Lang—I can't tell you! Anyway, the counselor in my heart is like Zuo Zhao! Later we Go to Duan Di's side to look for one, and secretly tell Liang Huzi or General Lang to dig it up."
They're all Yan Wangjun, don't be so sneaky and shameless!
Chi Heng couldn't help laughing: "It's not that easy, I still want to pick something ready-made, let Liang Huzi give you Zuo Zhao, and see if he is willing or not. They must have worked together for a long time before they became perfect. Don't pick and choose, Yun White is pretty good, I am afraid that the embryo will not be able to carve good jade."
"All right, all right, I didn't say he's bad." Cen Pojing muttered, "I'll lead the troops back tomorrow, what do you have to say?"
"From the individuals I selected today, I will nominate a few to be chief executives, and you will take the rest." A chief executive is a small leader who can manage 100 people.
"It's up to you."
On the same day, Wen Yunbai and Pei Laoliu had all delivered, and the food and grass were distributed in an orderly manner.The next day, Cen Pojing gathered all the recruited soldiers, transported food and grass, and left Wushui County in a mighty way.
Everything was in order, Chi Heng approached Pei Lao Liu, talked about the guards of Hua Mansion, and tried to ask if he could bring the dozens of people who took the lead that day, and follow him if he wanted to.
Pei Laoliu shook his head resolutely: "It's absolutely impossible, as many people come out, as many people have to go back, otherwise Mr. Hua will scold the villain to death."
Chi Heng smiled and asked them to stay for another three days.
Pei Laoliu agreed.
The recruitment on this side was in full swing, and Chi Heng selected ten more from the active soldiers he had selected to serve as centurions, so that the centurions would show off their skills to recruit people while arranging the victims.
Relief is a great thing, so the hundred leaders are all high-spirited, and they are active one by one.
When there are too many people, there will be chaos, and there will be no discipline.The current military discipline is the military discipline of King Yan's army, which is mostly used for marching troops.At present, relief and recruitment are the main focus, so the soldiers are not serious.
Chi Heng asked Wen Yunbai to write overnight, detailing military discipline, and clearly distinguishing rewards and punishments.
At night, Chi Heng gathered all the recruited soldiers and lined them up neatly.He stood on the high platform with a big knife in his hand, and there was no sound from below.After a few simple lectures, Chi Heng asked Wen Yunbai to read the military discipline in public.
Wen Yunbai's voice was gentle and soft, and the military system was also heckled Qu's teeth, making everyone confused.
Soon the soldiers below got impatient and started whispering.Seeing this, Wen Yunbai stopped first.
With a grim expression, Chi Heng picked up a long whip next to him and slammed it into the air. The whistling sound resounded through the night, and he was immediately solemn.Chi Heng's voice was resounding: "This is the first whip, and it's a warning. If anyone disobeys the prohibition and treats military discipline like nothing, Governor Wen, how should he be punished?"
"For the first offense, ten lashes are given; for the second offense, thirty lashes are given; for the third offense, one hundred lashes are given; for serious offenses, beheading!"
Immediately no one spoke.
Chi Heng said calmly, "Governor Wen, continue reading."
Afterwards, everything went smoothly. Wen Yunbai's voice became three points louder, and he finished preaching all the military discipline.Chi Heng stepped down from the high platform and ordered everyone to come forward and sit in a circle around himself and Wen Yunbai. His expression softened: "Anyone who doesn't understand military discipline can ask the governor, and the governor will answer them in detail. .”
No one spoke.
Chi Heng smiled slightly: "If you don't understand, just ask. Don't be rigid. Know what you can and can't do. Don't wait until you commit a crime before thinking of asking. Baichang comes first!" After finishing speaking, he pointed at them one by one.
The centurions were very enthusiastic, starting with the first question.
Wen Yunbai answered one by one in very common words.First the hundred chiefs asked, and later some bold soldiers asked, and soon it became lively, one by one calling for the governor, Wen
