Chapter Five Hundred and Seventieth: Bandits

The wind blows up yellow sand and hits people, falling down. As long as people stand somewhere and pause for a while, shaking their bodies, the sand and soil all over their bodies will fall down.

In such an environment, everyone wrapped their whole body with only a pair of eyes left outside. The dry and cold wind still stubbornly penetrated through all the gaps that could be penetrated, allowing people to keep cold into the bones.

The sound of horse hooves came from the wind and sand, and the black crowd behind the hillside stood up, each holding the weapons in his hands tightly.

More than ten war horses emerged from the wind and sand, paused for a moment, rode forward and walked straight towards this side.

"Yellow beard!" the knight immediately shouted, because his face was covered with a cloth scarf, his voice seemed to be humming.

A burly man strode forward, pulled off a piece of silk cloth wrapped around his head, and a handful of fluffy yellow beards were particularly conspicuous. He shouted: "Is it Lord Pengcheng?"

Peng Shuangmu turned over and got off the horse and walked over.

"Yellow beard, how many people have you brought?" asked Peng Shuangmu, the lord of Muyu City and the commander of the Tiande Army.

"Two thousand people, this time I have been in full swing. Lord Peng, if the business is not big enough this time, you will lose money. In such a ghost weather, brothers can't go out in vain." Huang beard knocked the big knife in his hand, and Dangdang made a sound.

"More than 100 large trucks, most of which are the best silk in the south. They are not white silk, but flowers, top-quality goods with color, and top-quality porcelain, snowflake salt, frosted sugar, and tea. Do you think you are enough?" Peng Shuangmu laughed.

"Why don't you eat such a good thing in Muyu City?" Huang Huzi was a little suspicious, "If you eat these goods and then hand them over to me to sell them, you can get 70% of the profit. If I take action, you will only have 30% of the profit at most."

"The other party has a big background. I'm not easy to start in Muyu City. These people are all ghostly and have not given me a chance along the way. Besides, the idea is a bit thorny. I don't want to lose too much, so I need more people. Yellow beard, you can't afford it alone this time. We join forces and each of them will benefit 50%. Peng Shuangmu said.

"How hard can a caravan be?" Huang Huzi burst out laughing: "How many people do they have?"

"Thousands of people!" Peng Shuangmu said.

"The caravan of thousands of people scared you." Huang Huzi laughed: "Don't move, I'll come alone, and I'll get 70% of the profit. The remaining 30% is your income from informing you and the cost of our friendship over the years. How about it?"

"Are you sure?" Peng Shuangmu sneered: "Be careful to hurt your teeth. There is an army of five hundred people in this thousand."

"You Tang Jun?" Huang Huzi laughed. "That's all. I'll eat this batch of goods alone. Just wait and get 30% of the profits. The business is not easy this year. The damn Tubo people forced me to pay 100,000 yuan of military expenses, otherwise I'll deal with it. Brothers open their mouths to eat again. Don't you care more or less, right? This ticket will make me earn more, and there will be rewards in the future."

Peng Shuangmu hesitated for a while and nodded, "Okay, you have a yellow beard. I have to give you this face, but you have to make 30% of the profit. Don't give me a discount. I know how much this batch of goods is worth after they are shipped. If you want to have a long business, you must be honest."

"We have been working together for so many years. Who is Huangbeard? You don't know?" Huangbeard said with a big smile.

Peng Shuangmu stopped talking, turned his head and turned his horse, and left with his long hair.

"They are in the bitter castle." Peng Shuangmu's voice came from the wind.

"Brothers, you're ready to work!" Huang Beard turned around and shouted loudly.

In the wind and sand, Peng Shuangmu rode his horse slowly and suddenly laughed.

"General, just be so cheap?" said a guard behind him.

"Care them?" Peng Shuangmu sneered: "Over the years, we have gained a little fatter yellow beard. He has begun to become a little unruly. He has dared to bargain with me many times and has blacked my money many times, thinking I don't know?"

"So that's the case?"

"I told him that this time he had a big idea and he refused to listen to it and insisted on asking for someone to do it. Then I will fulfill his wish." Peng Shuangmu smiled and said, "Look, Huang Bei's will suffer a big loss this time. After he fights with the other party to the death, we will take it down in one fell swoop. At that time, Huang Bei's strength is greatly reduced. If you want to survive in this area, you have to come and ask us. Humph, he has to take out what he swallowed me, and he has to spit out what he eats me."

"What about two thousand spoilers! They are all the people who eat human flesh and drink human blood. If they really succeed?" The guard was a little worried.

"I can't read these eyes wrong. I'll be stubborn. Besides, Li Ze's subordinates, how bad can they be? Just wait and reap the profits." Peng Shuangmu said.

Ku Ren Castle, which is the dilapidated beacon castle that Yuan Chang and others are stationed now. Yuan Chang wrapped himself tightly at the highest point of the beacon castle. He knew that his martial arts value was too low. After being ridiculed by Tang Ji yesterday, he was angry and wanted to keep guarding at night. However, he underestimated the hardship of this work. In just a short time, he was almost frozen. However, he was also a strong man, constantly stomping his feet on the top of the fort, running around, and unwilling to call people to replace him.

But when it was dawn, he could no longer resist his sleepiness, leaned against the wall, and fell asleep in a daze.

The loud sound of the military horn woke Yuan Chang, who had just been dozed off, woke up aroused by a thrill. He opened his eyes and found that it was already bright. In front of him, Tang Ji and Li Hai stood shoulder to shoulder and looking forward. Yuan Chang stomped his feet, which had no sense of consciousness, walked to the two of them, looked at Tang Ji with a squint, and said, "Didn't you say that these beards like to attack when it's dawn the most? It's bright and there's no one left. Did you make a mistake?"

Tang Ji shook his head and said, "It's not wrong, there must be a large number of thieves ahead."

"Why do you say that?" Yuan Chang sneered.

"It's very simple. Our road is the main road! We have been walking on this road these days, and there are quite a few people coming and going, but since yesterday afternoon, we can't even see a ghost. Not only did we not come or go, what does this mean? It means that there are people blocking us from both sides." Tang Ji spread his hands and said.

"Then why didn't they come?"

"This bandit probably knows some of our details. By the way, I'm colluding with Peng Shuangmu, how could I not know our details? It seems that they don't want to fight us here, want to trick us into continuing the march and then attack us on the road!"

"What should we do if they don't come? They're dying here?"

Tang Ji turned his head and thought, "If they don't come, we'll go find them and force them to come."

After saying this, Tang Ji turned around and got out of the fort. After a moment, more than a dozen war horses left the Fortress and ran forward.

"What are they doing?" Yuan Chang said.

"We have a geographical advantage here, so it is best to wait for the bandits to attack. We can kill and injure the other party in large quantities. If the enemy does not come, we will send people out. As long as they find them, they will have to come. In fact, bandits are not too scary. They have no other advantages except cruelty. What we have to worry about is Peng Shuangmu, the most terrifying thing about the army being bandits."

Yuan Chang sighed: "Da Tang army has all fallen to this point? He doesn't even want his face, and he openly becomes a bandit!"

"When killing all the people, who knows what they have done?" Li Hai said lightly. "In fact, a few of the remaining people in the Tang army, except for Li Xiang, are not bandits. The difference is just who they robbed and what means they used to rob!"

"The people under Li Xiang's rule are really a blessing. I'm afraid they will be incredible when they let them see the situation here!" Yuan Chang said.

"So I decided to follow Li Xiang!" Li Hai laughed and said, "Even if Li Xiang sent me to such a place."

"Person Li, don't underestimate our trip. We will fight with Tubo sooner or later. If we don't control them, how can Li Xiang have the energy to go south? If we pull up a group of troops in the Western Regions, we can restrain a large number of Tubo army and horses. This is an important task given to us by Li!"

Li Hai nodded silently and looked up to the distance. Several black dots were quickly approaching the Ku Ren Castle.

"Here you come!" Li Hai took off the Tianjue Bow from his back, took out an oil paper bag from his arms, took out the bowstring from his inside, and pushed the string up to the bow at an extremely fast speed, stretched out his hand and flicked the slingshot string. Listening to the buzzing sound of the bowstring, he raised the Tianjue Bow and kissed it.

"Prepare for battle!" Li Hai shouted loudly.

"Brothers, we are ready to work!" Below, Tang Ji's shouts also came.

More than ten cavalry and whistle-riding cavalry were running back like a desperate attempt. Behind them, about hundreds of cavalry bandits were chasing them tightly. Further away, a dark crowd was running towards the direction of the Ku Ren Castle.

"More than two thousand people!" Li Hai glanced at him and gave a rough number. This is the most basic quality of a general.

"It's really here, it's not like Peng Shuangmu's army!"

"The devil who sent to the death! Peng and his side sent to the death, he is ready to reap the profits!" Below, Tang Ji raised his head and gave Yuan Chang a positive answer.

More than ten cavalrymen rushed into the Kuren Fort, and the gap just exposed was blocked by the refusal again.

Huang Beard looked at the Kuren Castle opposite him with some annoyance. He was indeed preparing to rob the road, but the caravan not only did not go on the road, but instead sent a whistle and rode out a few times outside the encirclement he set up, but refused to enter the encirclement. This made him understand that the other party had known that he was here for a long time and had no choice but to do anything.
