Chapter VIII Agreement
After not much skill, Zuo Liangyu turned around. After looking at Yang Xiao for a few times, he nodded: "The complexion is indeed much better."
Yang Xiao smiled slightly: "Thanks to the care of my elder brother."
"You don't blame me for slapping you this whip. I dare not take it as a name for taking care of you." Zuo Liangyu said casually while untiing her armor.
"The reason why the eldest brother is like this is for the good minister. In the past, the good ministers did not understand their intentions and were very resentful to the eldest brother. It was the eldest brother's whip that made the good minister wake up like a dream, and I also asked the eldest brother to be bowed to him!"
After Yang Xiao finished speaking, he stood straight in the tent and gave a deep salute to Zuo Liangyu.
"Okay! Great!" Zuo Liangyu looked at Yang Xiao's appearance and nodded repeatedly.
"General!" At this moment, the door curtain moved and Zuo Kuan walked in from outside.
"How is it?" Zuo Liangyu looked at Zuo Kuan with inquiring eyes.
"The bandits are timid and fearful of officers and soldiers like tigers. Aren't they afraid that we will really fight with them? Gao Yingxiang agreed and gave this in person." Zuo Kuan held a small box in his hand and immediately opened it in front of Zuo Liangyu.
"I'll give you a reward!" Zuo Liangyu waved his hand disapprovingly when he saw that the box contained several exquisite jewelry and jade artifacts.
"Thank you for your reward." Zuo Kuanjiu was by Zuo Liangyu, who had seen the world, and did not take these treasures seriously. After thanking him, he put them aside.
"I have something to report to you!" Zuo Kuan continued.
"Let me tell me! Could it be that the girl from which family you like?" Zuo Liangyu couldn't help but quip when he saw Zuo Kuan's excited look.
"The general doesn't have to worry about this kind of thing, my subordinates will rob it. I'm talking about another thing!" Zuo Kuan glanced at Yang Xiao, and then stopped talking.
Yang Xiao knew that he was considering himself, so he left and walked out of the tent and said to Zuo Liangyu: "Brother, I have been here for so long, Uncle Fu must be worried about it. I will go out to find a personal soldier and inform him."
"I have sent someone to inform Uncle Fu, so you'll stay here." Zuo Liangyu pressed Yang Xiao's shoulder and said to Zuo Kuan with an unhappy face: "Liangchen is my cousin, I have nothing to hide from him."
When Yang Xiao heard Zuo Liangyu's words, he felt a little moved. Although Zuo Liangyu did a lot of bad things, he was sincere to him.
After hearing Zuo Liangyu say this, Zuo Kuan hurriedly apologized to Yang Xiao: "Second Young Master, this matter is of great importance. You are better here, so you can help the general to take a look."
Although Zuo Kuan asked Yang Xiao to help him take a closer look, Yang Xiao knew it himself. Zuo Kuan was so mysterious, this matter must be extraordinary. Although Zuo Liangyu treated him very well, it did not mean that he could listen to his opinions. All he did was to listen here.
"Tell me! Don't hesitate." Zuo Liangyu said.
"This time I went there. After seeing Gao Yingxiang, I told him about the second young master. Gao Yingxiang agreed without hesitation." Zuo Kuan then continued.
I just said this, but Zuo Liangyu and Yang Xiao both knew that he had some more words and waited there calmly, and no one showed impatience.
Sure enough, Zuo Kuan continued, "Gao Yingxiang then took his subordinates down to take a look at his war horse."
"Gao Yingxiang's war horse!" Zuo Liangyu's eyebrows flashed, and an excited look appeared on his face, but he immediately said helplessly: "Although Gao Yingxiang's war horse is good, it's a pity that he will have to hand over all of them in a few days, and there is nothing we can do about it."
"That's true, but who knows how many horses there are in his team? Those horses are fed from human troughs. If we can get a part of them, wouldn't it be like a tiger's wings?"
"Human trough? What is a human trough?" Yang Xiao asked strangely from the side.
"That is a way for Gao Yingxiang to feed the war horses. He puts the belly of the corpse and takes out the internal organs. Then puts the horse material in his stomach to feed the war horses. Such war horses are extremely fierce, especially when hungry, they will take the initiative to attack people." Zuo Liangyu explained.
"These inhuman guys." Yang Xiao's long-term education made him think that the peasant army was a rebel army, a team that preached the heavens and overthrew the people's rule by the feudal class. However, he was thought that such a rebel army could do such a cruel thing.
"This method was not thought of by Gao Yingxiang, but the idea came up with a man named Li Zicheng under his command. He was a postman when he was young and was quite versatile. There were many horses in the bandits, and after this method, the horses became more fierce, which added a lot of trouble to us." Zuo Kuan added on the side.
"Li Zicheng, what a fierce Li Zicheng." Yang Xiaozi traveled through time and wondered what Li Zicheng grew up like? Seeing how heroic figure he could destroy the Ming Dynasty. Now it sounds like this person is extraordinary. Just using this method alone is like being recorded in history.
Zuo Liangyu was obviously used to such things, and his attention was more focused on the horses fed from the human trough. He asked Zuo Kuan: "Since you mentioned this, you must have a certain plan, so you might as well tell me."
Zuo Kuan lowered his voice: "General, when his subordinates met Gao Yingxiang, he proposed an agreement to exchange weapons for war horses."
"For weapons to be exchanged for war horses?" Zuo Liangyu asked, "Although Gao's surrender was a matter of power and interests, the Ming army was on the side. All the weapons in the army were handed over. Even if our troops gave him weapons to exchange for horses, he could not hide them. Why did he do this forever?"
"The weapons he wants are not weapons transported into the carriage, but weapons transported to outside the plank road." Zuo Kuan explained.
"Zuo Kuan!" Zuo Liangyu was extremely shocked and lowered his voice and scolded: "Bailway thieves, this is a serious crime. If the matter is exposed and the court will investigate, not only will you and I be unable to protect your lives, but you will also be tragic of raiding the family and extermination of the clan."
Zuo Kuan only saw Zuo Liangyu lowering his voice and knew that he had moved. Then he said, "The general also knew that the bandits would inevitably be pacified and then rebel. Even if the 40,000 troops were bare-handed, they could easily break through several county towns. At that time, there would naturally be weapons. Whether we provide them with weapons has nothing to do with the court plan. On the contrary, we can still obtain a batch of enough war horses. Why don't we do such a good deal?"
"I respect myself, Zuo Liangyu is indeed like this." Yang Xiao watched the conversation between the two coldly, without saying a word. Because he knew his status very well, even if he expressed opposition, he could not report Zuo Liangyu. Yang Xiao would never do anything like this that harms others and does not benefit himself.
"What does Gao Yingxiang want?" Zuo Liangyu pondered slightly and asked.
"Hundreds of iron armor, one thousand long bows, two thousand arrows, one thousand arrows, one thousand waist knives, and one thousand spears." Zuo Kuan replied.
