Outside the already broken Shixiang Town, many poles have been temporarily erected, and the headless corpse that has been pulled out and hung on it.

On the edge of the river outside the town, several clearly divided troops were temporarily camped, forming a semi-encirclement confrontation with the Duanzhou Tutorial, which had entered the town first.

As these camps run around, some rumors and rumors are also flowing and brewing.

"How do those earth man and water rats say it?"

"Among the thiefs, there are magical people who call the wind and rain."

"I invited Zhu Rong to show my power and ruined the entire street."

"You can still fight and fire while blowing fire. The people who are waiting for the slump can't stop it, so you can only rush out for the other party."

"Punish your mother, what a hell is this...."

"Is it a soft guy who puts gold on his face?"

The origins and characteristics of these people are different. Some of them are river thieves who make a living on the small river water, some are private dealers who travel near the sea, some are chiefs of the barbarians in the middle of the mountain, and some are subordinates of Hu merchants from other places...

These people who had almost no chance of intersection in the past were gathered here because of a local official who destroyed his family and asked for trouble to protect and send people to contact him;

Although the old man was awarded the title of the fifth-rank Langguan after the Ministry of Rites retired, he was a former official in Beijing after all. In this Lingnan area where culture and education were not prosperous and poor, he was still a very luxurious person. Even in daily life, even the governor of Xiazhou who was in charge of the country would have to put down his posture and attitude and send people to ask questions and greet him at home.

Therefore, when the situation in Lingdong collapsed and the thieves occupied Guangzhou, the prefect followed the seal of the official seal, and the officials of the Assistant Resolutely stood up to turn the tide, and finally came to take over the situation with cheers and glory in the city.

Just by greeting the powerful households in their respective places, there was a response to the news, and many Tumen and rural soldiers were pulled out everywhere, temporarily maintaining the situation in most parts of Duanzhou.

And under the command of this old man, he mobilized and gathered thousands of people and all armed with the armor of the official warehouse. Then, he used the general trend and sent his children to recruit the marginal forces of the mountain barbarians, river thieves, and private dealers, and used their future wealth and children as a temptation to recruit and drive them under the banner of fighting against thieves and suppressing rebellions, and at the same time provoking and exterminating those who were unhappy;

The acquisition of Shixiang Town's change of hands is just one of the aftermath of the corner after the full launch. However, at this moment, the faces of these leaders of the forces were very bad.

Although their own reasons and motives are different, their purpose is at least temporarily consistent; they are based on this thief from the north who steals from Lingdong and submits a letter of submission to the court to obtain the qualification to recruit or be whitewashed and become a good man.

Therefore, compared with the leaders of the Tumen Army organized by the background of the powerful and powerful, they were obviously more hardworking and desperate, and the price they paid was much greater, but in the end, they could even make a team of thieves break through;

Therefore, the generals and officials of the Turkish Group who had always been close to the government obviously began to take advantage of this matter to seize their profit sharing and fulfill their promised rewards. They even took the lead in mastering the precautions and refused to let their subsequent personnel enter the town.

The leader who joined forces to ask for an explanation had just surrounded a general in charge of contact and negotiations and blocked the town.

"It was yours that there were many salt and iron tools here..."

Is it true that a man with a copper-skinned head wearing a feathered crown in the middle has a bad expression?

"As a result, there were more than 200 young men in the village, and I went to see the ancestor god... I didn't find anything."

"Is this a fool who can be deceived?"

"It is said that many valuable incense and cloth have been stocked here."

Then the big boss of Xiong Jiang, who was shirtless and thick-haired, also questioned him immediately.

"Brothers fought desperately to kill themselves, but they were covered in dust."

"Are they all dead in vain?"

“Since it is delivered without prior benefits,”

Another representative of the foreign merchant who looked different from the eastern land and had deep eyes and eagle noses also said loudly.

"Don't blame us for taking it ourselves..."

"The most stunning area of ​​Shiguan was taken down by my people and means..."

"Can you just wait to break the contract?"

"You have already taken advantage of the Sihui City..."

The vicious and powerful private dealer leader, who is a fierce and Kong Wu, is even more threatening.

"Are you reluctant to let this little bit of profit in Shixiang Town?"

"Don't blame them, just do whatever you want"

"I'm a man who cut off more than 300 thieves' heads."

"Just relying on your home groups, you still want to go to heaven."

"That's exactly what..."

The others even acted enthusiastically and pulled the knife and the handle and agreed loudly.

"At worst, why do we all turn around and ask people to fight for one game..."

"Look at the hard bones of you, the more powerful knives of our brothers..."

Under this robbery and threat, seeing this Tumen official representing the government, he no longer spoke more and insisted, and gave up his acquiescent attitude to retreat. Then he called on his friends and roared towards the broken town.

"Person Wen, how did this make it?"

The people around the Tumen Officer couldn't help but get anxious and called him.

"The rest of the town are all righteous men and good people who are dedicated to the court."

"In order to cooperate with the inside and outside, I have made a lot of efforts to defeat those thieves."

"This is no way to do it..."

The old-fashioned Captain Wen couldn't help but sigh deeply.

"Now the thief is still in power, and the government still needs to gather strength..."

"Everyone has their own thoughts and desires... The elders should also take into account some things,"

Speaking of this, his expression and eyes became firmer again.

"At present, we will use these miscellaneous streams to delay and consume the momentum of a thief."

"Even if there are some righteous people in the town, they can only make choices to take into account the overall situation."

"When the court is liberated in the future, we will get back from these miscellaneous streams."

However, he calmed down.

"Before they start to take action, please withdraw all the people you kissed...."

"The rest of the people who don't care about it for the time being will be treated as a small sacrifice for the sake of the country's plan."

"But when you look back, let those withdrawn personnel spread more,"

"These vulgar thieves are tragic and act in a rebellious way, and they are responsible for the tragic crimes of the village,"

"But it's up to the command of the lieutenant."

Seeing that the matter was irreversible, the representative from the town could only sigh and accepted the reality, but his mind changed and began to calculate his own gains and losses.

After all, Captain Wen just gave him a temporary right and interests, allowing him to decide to withdraw the candidates to avoid disaster, which is also a disguised purchase and comfort. After all, he is not the most influential among the villagers, but he also has his own interests and positions, as well as corresponding closeness and distantness.

............

After walking for two days and re-entering the territory near Guangzhou, another small episode happened in private.

"Brother Monk, you have picked up my life."

Deputy Commander Lu, who was spread on a stretcher to describe the bones, had no need to look at him seriously.

"So, I owe you a life..."

"If you have any assignment in the future, just say it...."

With the beginning and precursor of this, almost most people expressed similar gratitude or corresponding gratitude during the inspection of dozens of injured people;

It is just because Zhou Huaian has never abandoned their cumbersome sick person while fleeing along the way. Instead, he severely scolded and intimidated those who put forward similar ideas or tended to take action. Therefore, these gratitude and thoughts arising from every word and action are somewhat amplified and strengthened in the face of life and death.

Of course, he accepted this wave of surprises with a smile, but on the surface he had to make some unconcerned humility and tranquility; then he told and comforted the other party seriously that this was just a way to do it. He really didn't dare to overestimate too much. What's more important is that they must have the will to survive, or the firm belief that they have persisted along the way.

By the way, I used the stories and jokes I learned from the music style and instilled a bunch of cheap spiritual chicken soup, which made the other party fall into a very reasonable and unintelligent mind. It also laid a deeper foundation for further development in the future.

This time, under the pressure of danger and survival, Zhou Huaian completely squeezed out his biological scanning and detection capabilities. In addition, this unknown auxiliary system brought about night vision and long-sightedness, which provided this team with a certain mode of seeking profit and avoiding harm, and obtained supplements and assistance from the wild in a timely manner at several critical moments.

But at the corresponding price, he had to swallow a lot of high-calorie things; such as hundreds of kilograms of stone honey and jerky, more than a dozen wax gooses, and half a cow's legs were mixed, so that he would not fall too weak and tired and collapse halfway through the way.

Although the concealment and literary treatment were tried to be done, the rebel soldiers who came along were somewhat surprised, and the rumors and discussions that the monk's deputy manager was suspected to be "Taotie alive".
