Chapter 383 He has an arrogant personality*
Seeing that the sun was approaching the middle of the sky, Laicai arrived with the soldiers from Hongjia County.
As expected, Mr. Hua Lao also came.
Mr. Hua was panting and came over with someone helping him. Although he practiced martial arts all year round, his physical strength was not as good as that of young people. "Xiao Meng."
Meng Changqing hurriedly stepped forward to help him and took him to the nearest room to rest, "Why did Mr. Hua go up the mountain himself?"
"This bandit's den." Mr. Hua said only four words before he had to wait for a moment. "I have long wanted to destroy it, but unfortunately I never found the opportunity. Now that you have attacked it, I am lucky enough to go to the mountain to see it. Look.”
Hua Rujin's servant poured out the water from the water bag, put it on the fire to heat, then quickly brought it over, "Master, you can drink the water smoothly."
"Okay." Hua Rujin took it and said, "I came here this time and brought you three hundred people. Is it enough?"
"Enough!" Meng Changqing saluted and thanked, "Thank you for your help, sir. With these three hundred people, it is more than enough to defend the stronghold."
"That's good." Hua Rujin took out the handkerchief and wiped her face, "When I came here just now, I saw a dead man kneeling next to a strange rock. What's the reason?"
"The one who died was the leader of this group of gangsters. He had an arrogant character and wanted to die. I only wanted to interrogate him, but he killed me with a slap on the neck." When Meng Changqing said this, he made a look of pity, "Oh, what a shame. I was shocked.”
Yang Zheng stood nearby, watching her lie.
"That's because he doesn't know what is good and he deserves to die." Hua Rujin did not continue to ask what happened to the kneeling man, but asked: "Did everything go well today? I will finish the follow-up, if I can help Yes, just say it.”
"Changqing won't be polite if you ask." Seeing that he had recovered, Meng Changqing personally took him around the village.
"The scale of this cottage is not small. Although some houses have been abandoned, the number of people should be more than those outside."
"Master Hua has good eyesight. He arrested forty-two people at the foot of the mountain last night. According to the bandits, there are still their people outside the mountain."
"Is there more outside the mountain?"
"Yes, I don't know if it is the fifth or tenth day of the lunar month, but a few people from outside the mountain will return to the mountain."
Hua Rujin said: "The ones you captured plus the ones outside the mountain are almost the same. Changqing, you can capture the dangerous mountain on the east side, which will be a great danger to the people around the mountain range."< br>
"I had no idea of attacking the dangerous mountain. It all depended on Colonel Yang and his colleagues' hard planning."
Hua Rujin stretched out her hand and nodded Meng Changqing, "You are a very down-to-earth person. If your subordinates don't nod when they do something, how dare they do it?" Meng Changqing smiled and did not continue to discuss this topic.
"It was difficult to conquer the top of the mountain. The terrain is high enough. When the weather is fine, you can see very far. Naturally, I am reluctant to leave it alone. However, my men are really limited, so I can only trouble Mr. Hua's men for the time being."
"Hey, you and I are neighbors and we are fighting against foreign enemies. We should help each other, so there is no need to be so polite." Hua Rujin said, "Looking at your black eyes, you should go down the mountain as soon as possible, go back to the Yamen to rest, and report to Mr. Futai as soon as possible. Depending on what Mr. Futai has to say next, leave the matters on the mountain to me. If you leave a few people who know the situation, I will fully cooperate with you.”
Meng Changqing thanked him again, and it took him enough time to have a cup of tea, but Hua Rujin still became impatient, "Oh, if you don't have time to thank me, you might as well treat me to a drink later."
"Definitely." Meng Changqing promised, "I will definitely let you enjoy my filial banquet before the end of the year."
Meng Changqing left Xi Bei and Zuo Datou with Hua Rujin, and took the others and the kidnapped bandits down the mountain.
Before going down the mountain, Meng Changqing came to Defeng again.
The person who finally calmed down started to tremble with fear.
"De Feng, what a good name." Meng Changqing stood in front of him and praised: "If you want Feng De Feng, you will be blessed when you hear it, and it doesn't look like you will die early."
Defeng didn't know what the person in front of him was going to do, so he put his head on the snow and refused to raise it.
"It's time to go down the mountain." After Meng Changqing said this, Yang Zheng stepped forward to untie De Feng, "Please put Ma Qing on your back and take him down with you."
De Feng raised his head in horror, "He...he is dead."
"I can see that."
"Am I going to carry someone to death?" he asked stammering.
Meng Changqing said, "Everyone will die one day. Don't look down on him just because he is dead."
"I'm not looking down on you." Defeng mustered up the courage to fight for himself, "I'm just scared."
"Don't be afraid." Meng Changqing comforted: "You are a bandit, what are you afraid of?"
