Chapter 9 Pure people are the most annoying
The sound of cooing birds came from the air. Everyone looked up and saw a gray pigeon circling back and forth in the air. In surprise, Li Dachui stretched out his hand He lifted his arm and made a cooing sound from his mouth. The pigeon fluttered its wings and landed. Amid everyone's exclamations, it stopped on Li Dachui's arm.
First he took out a handful of broken rice from his arms and fed it to the pigeon, and then he took out a small bamboo tube from the pigeon's leg. He crushed the bamboo tube and took out a paper roll from inside.
"Sir, what's the matter?" Fang Mao Mao asked.
Li Dachui handed him the note and put the pigeon into Fang Xiaomao's hand.
"Gather the men!" He whispered: "Next, there will be a big battle!"
Li Dachui's voice was so loud that Zhang Ruo, the Yuan brothers and Wu De could all hear it clearly.
"War?" Yuan Rong asked: "How old is it?"
"Brother Yuan, have you ever fought a war?" Li Dachui asked.
Yuan Rong shook his head.
Wu De's face changed color: "A war?"
"Yes, a war."
"When?"
"I don't know, I just know that the enemy is Come closer to us, maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow, in short, Linghuye doesn't want Mr. Zhang to cross the Qingshui River," Li Dachui said.
“Why can’t we cross the Qingshui River?”
"Because after crossing the Qingshui River, it is the territory that Linghuye actually controls. If Mr. Zhang dies there, Linghuye will have to waste a lot of money."
"In this way, Linghuye Will the army be dispatched?" Zhang Ruo asked with a dark face. "What else do you know?"
"Mr. Zhang, I only know that there are about a thousand horse bandits, or more, being chased by Da Qin's army. What a coincidence. The direction in which these horse bandits are fleeing is exactly where we are." Li Dachui said with a smile, "If we are killed by the fleeing horse bandits, there is no doubt that Commander Linghu will be there to avenge us. The head of the notorious horse bandit leader outside the customs will be sent to Chang'an to give an explanation for Zhang Gong's death."
"How dare you, thief!" Zhang Ruo was furious.
"What are you afraid of?" Li Dachui said calmly: "There is already a lot of chaos outside the pass, and the unrest under the rule is not one of the crimes for which Mr. Zhang impeached Linghuye? This time, by After Zhang Gong's death, Linghuye's army was dispatched to rectify the order outside the pass. Maybe it can keep the peace outside the pass for a few more years."
Zhang Ruo opened his mouth but was speechless.
Wu De swallowed and looked at Li Dachui nervously: "Li Daxia, you have a way, right? Can we avoid it now?"
"It can't be avoided. ! It was planned that no matter which direction you go, you will encounter horse bandits! "Li Dachui said: "Do you know who is in charge of suppressing bandits this time?"
"
"Linghu Ye's general, Chariot General Xiao Changche!" Li Dachui said every word: "I think this name must be familiar to Mr. Zhang, right? In the past three years, he fought against Yuanlu , ten battles and ten battles, the most glorious one, he led 3000 cavalry to defeat the more than 10,000 tribes of King Zuoxian of the Yuan Dynasty, chased and killed King Zuoxian for thousands of miles, and captured King Zuoxian's favorite concubine before returning it. Therefore, in the first battle, the Jin chariot general, named Zhenguan and beyond.”
Speaking of this, Li Dachui sighed: "Linghuye really values you, and actually sent such a powerful guy to deal with you. Hey, it seems that I am going to lose money on this business."
Zhang Ruo Gritting his teeth, he remained silent.
Brother Yuan Rong, Wu De and others have all lost their color.
If they still had some luck in facing the horse bandits outside the Pass, when they heard that it was Xiao Changche who was presiding over this matter, the little bit of last hope in everyone's heart was also wiped out. Knocked to pieces.
Xiao Changche's name is loud outside the customs, and it is also famous in Chang'an.
After all, the ruthless man who kidnapped the beloved concubine of King Zuoxian of the Yuan Kingdom and openly took her as his concubine was a figure praised and envied by everyone in Chang'an.
In order to wash away this shame of his own, King Zuo Xian has sent killers time and time again in the past few years. It is not that he wants to kill Xiao Changche, he just wants to kill his concubine, but he does not want to go to a group of A group of people were slaughtered. Xiao Changche seemed to use this woman as bait, leading waves of good men under King Zuo Xian to die.
But even though he knew it was a trap, Yuan Guo still enjoyed it, for no other reason than that he really couldn't afford to lose this person.
Three years have passed, and the woman has given birth to a baby for Xiao Changche, and the killers sent by King Zuoxian of the Yuan Kingdom are still watching, and from time to time they will stage an assassination drama.
It can be said that outside the customs, the person the Yuan people hate the most now is not Linghuye, but Xiao Changche.
This is an out-and-out ruthless person.
And now, they are actually standing on the opposite side of this ruthless man.
Xiao Changche drove the horse bandits to deal with them, and then he did the mantis stalking the cicada, with the oriole behind.
Zhang Ruo looked up to the sky and sighed.
"Unfortunately, I thought Xiao Changche was the pillar of the country. He is completely different from Ling Huye. Unexpectedly, he is the same person."
Li Dachui looked at Zhang Ruodao: "Mr. Zhang, you demoted Lone Ye and carried Xiao Changche in the memorial. Do you think you can divide the forces outside the customs and divide and rule them? Hehe, no wonder Xiao Changche wants to take action personally this time. This is to I have proven my innocence in front of Linghuye!”
“A dignified third-rank cavalry general of the Great Qin Dynasty is actually willing to be Linghuye’s lackey?” Zhang Ruodao. "Previously, there was information that Xiao Changche and Linghu Yeduo had conflicts."
"Da Qin's Black Ice Platform, outside the customs, has long been a decoration. You actually believe the information they sent out. No doubt? Without verification?" Li Dachui was happy.
"If you don't believe in Heibingtai, who else can you believe? Xinling Huye's own report?" Zhang Ruo asked. Li Dachui nodded: "That's true. In fact, the imperial court can still spend money to buy information from Tai'an City. The goods are genuine and fair. The black ice platform outside the pass has long become a tool in Linghuye's hands. But One thing is true, Xiao Changche and Linghuye do have a lot of conflicts. Linghuye is quite suspicious of the cavalry general, but this does not prevent the cavalry general from coming to kill you, because he also. I want to kill you!”
Everyone was speechless.
The group of people walked forward silently,
The big knife was already hanging above their heads, but they didn't know when it would fall.
The only one we can count on right now is Li Dachui.
Looking at his calm and unhurried appearance, the desperate group couldn't help but feel some hope.
This hope has increased little by little as time goes by.
From time to time, groups of knights gathered from the surrounding areas.
These people are all subordinates of Li Dachui.
Sometimes there are two or three riders, sometimes more than ten riders, and at most, more than fifty riders came at one time.
When everyone went down to camp in the evening, there were actually more than 300 riders surrounding them.
Judging from the way these knights behave and sit, it is obvious that they are not ordinary people, but rather well-trained soldiers.
As night fell,
the bonfire was lit, illuminating their location like a bright light in the dark wilderness.
Outside Zhang Ruo's small tent, brothers Yuan Rong, Wu De and others were sitting tightly around the tent. This was the only thing they could do now.
Those people who came later ignored them at all.
In fact, Li Dachui didn't pay much attention to them, but Fang Mao Mao talked and laughed with them and directed these people to set up camp.
Zhang Qingyun came out of the tent, hesitated for a moment, and then walked towards Li Dachui who was grilling meat by the fire.
Sitting on his knees by the side of the bonfire, Zhang Qingyun watched Li Dachui playing with the pieces of meat that were cut squarely. Until Li Dachui handed her a piece.
“Try what I baked, for example, the kitten is better baked.” Li Dachui said with a genuine smile.
"Such a bright fire fight at night, doesn't it allow those bad guys to know our details?" Zhang Qingyun, who was holding the piece of meat, was obviously a little uneasy.
"Have you read military books?"
"I read some randomly in my father's study."
"Sometimes, it is better to have no books at all than to believe in them!" Li Dachui said: "The horse bandits are not stupid. People who can survive outside the customs are not stupid. They don't come because they don't dare to come. They don't have enough people to gather. In other words, if it weren't for Xiao Changche , they have already run away."
"Because of you?" Zhang Qingyun asked in surprise. "Didn't you say there were thousands of horse bandits or more?"
"Sometimes quantity can't destroy qualitative change." Li Dachui said contemptuously: "Qi Bagu was forcefully expelled by Xiao Changche. Together, the horse bandits who came here, do you think they can work together? They didn't know I was here earlier, but now they know, how dare they act rashly?"
Zhang Qingyun raised his head and looked at the red flag flying over the camp, with a huge black hammer embroidered with black silk thread.
"Li Dachui? Is it because of this flag?" she asked softly.
"No matter who the opponent is, this hammer can smash the opponent to pieces!" Li Dachui smiled and said: "That's why people outside the customs call me Li Dachui."
"Then who are you? "
"Li Dachui is the most arrogant horse bandit outside the pass!" Li Dachui took a bite of the fragrant barbecue, "A horse bandit who is so arrogant that even Ling Huye would give him some respect."< br>
"Then why did you come to protect me and my father?"
"If I said that I saw your portrait and was seduced by your beauty, would you believe it?"
"If you were this kind of person, you wouldn't be the most powerful horse bandit outside the customs!" Zhang Qingyun shook his head.
Li Dachui swallowed the roast meat in his mouth and sighed: "I made a deal with someone. Now it seems that I lost money on this deal. I will have to make up for it later and I will have to add more money." . To be honest, I would rather deal with Ling Huye than fight face to face with this Xiao Changche. "Is Xiao Changche more difficult to deal with than Ling Huye?"
"In some aspects, yes!" Li Dachui nodded: "Linghuye is a politician and can weigh interests. Xiao Changche is a general, a very pure general. He only has one thing in his eyes, killing the enemy. So with Linghuye When dealing with Xiao Changche, there is only one word, do it!”
“It sounds like you admire this Xiao Changche?”
“Of course. , I have always liked very pure people. Maybe it’s because a person likes whatever he lacks!” Li Dachui said: “But when these pure people stand in front of you, it’s very annoying. Your father is also a very pure person.”
