The veteran smiled and said: "We did come from Jiangdong, but where did you hear this news?"
"I learned about it from Sun Xingzu, the deputy lord of Juma City, and others."< br>
Su Hanshan said, "They really want to find you, so as soon as I discovered the suspected whereabouts, I came over to check."
The veterans thought for a while.
“Juma City, didn’t I hear that they are not going to send anyone out?”
"Please wait a moment, let's go and report."
A veteran turned around and walked into a tent. He quickly turned around and came out and said loudly: "Please come in."
Su Hanshan walked into the tent, the thick curtain fell, and a dim light hanging from the top of the tent had already been lit.
In the middle of the open space of the camp, a small stove radiated heat outwards, keeping the entire camp warm.
A long table is placed behind the stove, and a large wool blanket is laid on the ground behind the table.
An old man with a thin appearance, slightly curly eyebrows and a sparse beard was sitting on the wool blanket. He looked about sixty years old. He was wearing a white and yellowish single coat and a black burqa. It's like being woken up from sleep.
"This is our King Wu of Jiangdong."
The veteran said, "No matter what the envoy has to say, he can speak frankly."
Su Hanshan was a little surprised. , although I heard that the troops were sent by King Wu's Mansion, I didn't expect that King Wu actually led the troops himself.
"I, Yang Baifa, was just the former King of Wu, but the current King of Wu is my apprentice, and he can still make some decisions."
The old man smiled and said in a clear voice, "The messenger heard that he came from Juma City. I don't know what token he has. Why are you looking for me?"
Su Hanshan announced his name and said with a smile: "Although I heard about Jiangdong's dispatch of troops from Sun Xingzu and others, I did not come from Juma City."
"Not long ago, Juma City had been occupied by the Hu people, and Sun Xingzu and others led After some remnant soldiers fled, they passed by my Dongping City and tried to rob food. I captured them and learned many things from their mouths. "
The information contained in just a few sentences is amazing. The veteran. His expression changed obviously, and he was extremely surprised: "Hu people?!"
Yang Baifa also moved his eyebrows and said: "Old Qin, get a pot of tea."
The veteran came to his senses and took the order to leave the camp. When he came back, there were already two people, one carrying a pot of hot water and the other carrying a tea set.
"I was in such a hurry to meet just now that I forgot to serve some tea. Please sit down."
Yang Baifa found a cushion and placed it opposite the long table, and asked Su Hanshan to sit down.
Boiling hot tea was poured into the two cups, with a slight green color, and the aroma of strong tea immediately evaporated with the heat.
Yang Baifa picked it up and took a sip, indicating to Su Hanshan to taste it.
Su Hanshan picked it up, blew it, and took a sip.
“It’s my fault that I came unexpectedly in the middle of the night.”
Su Hanshan said, “It’s just that things in Juma City are not trivial. If we in the city want to do business, the best choice is to go there. . ”
“The final destination of the old King Wu’s soldiers and horses is also pointed there. Now it is occupied by the barbarians, if not The sooner you can report the news and respond, the longer it takes, the more inappropriate it will be."
Yang Baifa nodded slightly and said with a smile: "The sooner you know this news, the better. Taking it down shows that you have extraordinary strength. Since you are so concerned about Juma City, do you want to deal with this matter with us? ”
Su Hanshan spoke frankly and said: "I hope to see a mature port city where business can be done in peace, rather than a large cottage that was broken down and robbed, and the rules were re-established by bandits."
"Okay. !”
Yang Baifa said, “I brought fifteen thousand people out from Jiangdong. During the day, I divided into teams of one thousand people to clear out the living corpses and open roads at night. The camp is divided into three routes. "
" After half a year of stop and go, we have achieved quite a lot. Now there are many cities along the rear, which can turn over the grain and grass from Jiangdong, but if we want to transfer it from these cities. I am afraid that if we delay for a long time, things will change even more."
He took a sip of tea and said, "How are the soldiers and horses of the barbarians? How many masters are there? What will you do?"
This person spoke straight to the point, openly and openly. Once he knew the subject of the incident, he would just focus on that matter.
Su Hanshan liked this straight-to-the-point style, and immediately said: "When the Hu people attacked Juma City, they mainly relied on internal cooperation and external cooperation to create civil strife first. The total manpower was more than 10,000 soldiers and horses. That's all "
"The masters who appeared at that time, there were three figures with divine souls in their bodies, and their strength was generally higher than that of Sun Xingzu. One of them even charged into the battle alone and killed the Lord of Juma City, and the other was Fist Master. How strong the spirit is "General, the specific number is unclear."
"However, they belong to a sect called Wuxiong Sect, which unites various tribes in Donghu. It is said that there are 30,000 to 40,000 elite soldiers in the sect. A few years ago. , has occupied several large cities, it is still unknown whether there will be more troops."
"Dongping City is just a small city, and apart from me, the most elite people in the city now are only the more than two thousand. Captive soldiers.”
Su Hanshan said this, blew the tea leaves, watched the tea slowly fluctuate, and said, "But this time, I will go there personally, and because it is a small town, there is another name available."
< br>“There’s a lot of cutting and polishing in our city For good wood, in the name of our small town wanting to do business, we can ask Old Wu King to send some vanguard soldiers in disguise to help us escort these goods to Juma City."
Yang Baifa's expression changed slightly: "Hu. People will believe that you want to do business with them Do you like it?”
“The city is small and closed, and there is no information. It is normal to not know that Juma City has changed its owner. It will be too late when we get closer.”
Su Hanshan said with a pun, and then said, "Kang Moreover, the straight-line distance between Dongping and Jima is not that far. The food harvest in Dongping City this year is too poor. I have no choice but to ask for food and gather one or two thousand people to brave the environment where living corpses are waiting for me. It’s not surprising that we have to endure the journey for several days.”
Chen Wanchuan brought his people out and wandered around for several months before arriving at Dongping City, but that was only because Dongping City was located in a remote place, and it was not easy for people coming from big cities to notice it.
In fact, if there is a clear and complete route map, the cavalry can gallop directly from Dongping to Juma in two days.
Among the prisoners in Su Hanshan, there is someone who can be this guide.
"If everything is as you said, we can set off tomorrow and give it a try according to your plan, with the vanguard camouflaging in front and the army hiding behind."
Yang Baifa turned his palms Teacup said, "But after all, it's our first time to discuss such a big thing, so we will inevitably have some doubts in our hearts. I will go to the city tomorrow and ask Sun Xingzu personally."
Su Hanshan said: "Of course."
"I don't have 100% trust in the old King Wu, but any friend has the stage of first acquaintance."
Su Hanshan said Picking up the tea cup, "I hope we can be friends."
Yang Baifa chuckled and clinked the cup with him.
“There’s something, I’m a little curious about.”
Su Hanshan said, "Why do the soldiers I see seem to be over forty years old? Didn't Old King Wu bring young soldiers with him this time?"
Yang Baifa said: "Young people should Once we take on their responsibilities, those of us who are about to hand over our responsibilities will feel more relaxed and can do some things we have wanted to do for a long time."
Su Hanshan Ruoyou. He thought, "Doesn't the current King of Wu support you in sending troops?"
"As long as I go out, he will definitely support me."
Yang Baifa smiled, a wise smile In his mind, there was a vague meaning of a rogue, "But after the cities where the canal entered the sea refused to send troops, he was indeed not so enthusiastic about this matter."
"He also represents the thoughts of many young people. Opening roads may indeed be beneficial to everyone in the future, but if others are not in a hurry, why should we spend a lot of manpower and material resources first? After all, we in Jiangdong don't need it. These roads have been going well." Su Hanshan said: "There is nothing wrong with their thoughts."
"Huh?"
Yang Baifa let out a chuckle and asked with a smile, "You are also a young man. It sounds like you don't agree with their views?"
Su Hanshan shook his head and said: "I can't control what they do. But I like to reform everything, open up paths, and reconnect the world. It sounds like a major event that can be remembered in life. If I have the chance, I will definitely do it.”
Yang Baifa drank a few sips of tea, his smile became brighter, and he laughed and said: "Okay, okay, actually, when I saw you walking in from outside the tent in the middle of the night, I felt like a good man in my gut."
< br>“I have always trusted my instincts when talking about big things. In the Qixian chapter, they all fell in love, but it’s a pity that the last batch of wine sent by the army has been consumed, otherwise the tea should be replaced with wine to make it taste better.”
The next morning, it was bright. At that time, Yang Baifa first brought a group of personal guards and followed Su Hanshan to Dongping City.
"King Wu!"
Sun Xingzu had met Yang Baifa back then, but he really didn't expect that he only mentioned Jiangdong soldiers and horses two days ago, and today he actually met him in Dongping City.
But his eyes turned between Yang Baifa and Su Hanshan, but he did not ask Yang Baifa for help or accuse Su Hanshan of his actions.
This world is the most realistic. Su Hanshan's value as a person is much higher than that of Sun Xingzu and others. Yang Baifa is not Sun Xingzu's father, and it is impossible for him to fall out with Su Hanshan because of him.
On the contrary, be more calm at this time, maybe things will turn around.
After all, Su Hanshan seems to have no one around him. He must have a big plan to cooperate with Jiangdong soldiers and horses. Since Sun Xingzu and the others are not killed directly, there will definitely be places where they can be used in the future.
Sun Xingzu and Ben Yin looked at each other and both understood what the other meant.
Keeping your eyes open and being able to bend and stretch is the way to save your life.
Yang Baifa was also a little surprised. He originally felt that Su Hanshan was not in a state where the soul could enter the body, and he also had a vague feeling that Su Hanshan's strength was not as simple as ordinary fist-intention channeling.
But I never expected that Su Hanshan could capture three masters with souls in their bodies by himself, and he didn't even seem to have disabled these three people.
Even if the scope of the realm of divine soul entering the body is very large, the strength of those who have entered the divine soul for the first time is already extraordinary. Even if you look at the world today, you may not be able to count a hundred.
It is much more troublesome to capture such a person alive than to beat him to death or cripple him.
"I've heard City Lord Su talk about Juma City."
Yang Baifa said, "Tell us about the situation of the barbarians."
Sun Xingzu and the others just talked about it. He repeated what he had said before without any deviation from the topic.
Su Hanshan knew that they were very knowledgeable and looked at them with a smile.
Yang Baifa was also quite satisfied. When everything was clarified, he said smoothly: "It is not easy to find a warrior with a spiritual soul. City Lord Su, we want to take back Juma City. These three masters It would be a pity not to use it. ”
Su Hanshan said: "Then take them with the old King Wu's army. When the time comes, I will pull out these nails for them. I hope they can fight bravely this time and don't escape from Juma City without leaving any wounds. "
Sun Xingzu was a little ashamed and said: "The barbarian named Bu Dugen is really fierce. After killing the city lord, I immediately We know at this moment that even with the combined strength of the three of us, we are no match."
"Escape as soon as possible while taking advantage of the chaos, so you have a chance to call for help..."
Yang Baifa said: "Okay, no need. Tell me more, when you go back to Juma City, you can deal with ordinary soldiers and horses among the Hu people, right?"
Sun Xingzu nodded repeatedly.
On a truly large-scale battlefield, the mental momentum of the army will be mixed and become extremely strong. Even a master cannot stun hundreds of people just by the spread of fist power.
With the spirit of the three of them in their bodies, their fist attacks on the battlefield can kill dozens of people at a time. In a real fight, they mainly rely on physically attacking their opponents.
But with their strength, if there is no master to stop them, even if they need to punch and kill ordinary soldiers and horses, it will be like a strong wind, and the efficiency will never be low.
After Yang Baifa's soldiers and horses entered the city, according to what was discussed last night, they began to separate some elite soldiers and disguised themselves as ordinary people in Dongping City.
These people in Dongping City don’t have much clothing at home. Since they have to use it to disguise these elite soldiers, of course they have to give some compensation. However, it is an accident that they got thick military winter clothes. happiness.
Su Hanshan told Liu Jiazi and the others to take care of the city, and then followed the disguised Jiangdong soldiers and horses on the road together.
These vanguard soldiers pretending to be ordinary people had a distance of about twenty miles from the large army behind them. They relied on Sun Xingzu and others' memory of the terrain along the way to keep the large army as close as possible to the jungle. Traveling covertly.
A few days later, Su Hanshan felt that the air had become more humid, and rivers became more common wherever he passed.
They were already close to where the canal entered the sea, and they were very close to Macheng.
On the dark city wall, there are many overlapping old and new ones, signs of being attacked. The suspension bridge across the river hangs in mid-air, and there are also many thick iron chains on both sides. They have obviously been replaced recently. .
The East Gate and West Gate of Juma City are both gates, with rivers passing directly through them. When the gates are raised, they can allow ships to pass.
However, Su Hanshan and the others came from the south, and the south gate only had a moat and a suspension bridge gate. They had to cross the river and the bridge before entering the city.
When they were still three or four miles away from the city gate, the suspension bridge had been lowered and a group of cavalry rushed out of the city.
"Who are you? Where do you come from?"
The cavalry leader whipped his whip in his hand, with two staggered scars on his face, and his voice was like a broken gong.
In order not to be too conspicuous, Su Hanshan also changed his clothes and mixed in the crowd. He raised his head and took a look, only to find that there were no traces of barbarians in this group of cavalry. They seemed to be from the Central Plains, and their armor and armor were similar to those worn by Sun Xingzu at that time. Those people are pretty much the same.
As soon as his heart moved, he understood that these should be the troops who surrendered after the city was captured.
The apparent leader of the freight team was selected by Jiangdong Bingmali. He was a sophisticated man who was proficient in local dialects and explained their purpose in a few words.
Unexpectedly, these cavalrymen did not ask too many questions. They just saw that there was really no oil or water on them, so they waved their whips impatiently and let them enter the city.
“Damn it, after those barbarians broke through the city, they robbed things and women everywhere in the city for three whole days. When their leader came, they said they would maintain Juma City’s status as a four-way trade hub. , no more grabbing.”
"In the end, the ones who were watched most closely were us. Even a blind person can see who is more likely to steal things."
"Oh, boss, bear with me, now He is the boss. Besides, our place was only robbed for three days, which is really good. I heard that they occupied other cities in the past. When we were in the pond, we had to loot for more than ten days after breaking the city."
"The oil and water at the east and west city gates and the inner and outer docks were all harvested by those barbarians, and they will definitely harvest more in the future. The more!”
When Su Hanshan entered the city, he heard them muttering among themselves.
After entering the city, I saw only a few long streets and houses like chess pieces. Although there were many houses and many of them had shop signs, most of them were closed and looked quite depressed.
The leader inquired about where it was possible to collect the wood, and led the team forward, moving to a place near the dock, and only saw a scene with slightly more people.
At the corner of the street, there are still barbarians sitting on wooden platforms, preaching something.
“...So, most of the emperors of the Zhou Emperor, the Xiaohan Dynasty, and the Wude Dynasty have the blood of our Wuxiong people. Fuxi Nuwa and Shennong Xuanyuan are also the ancestors of our Wuxiong people. The subject of King Hengxiong!”
