Chapter 133: Take it and run away(2/3)
The confidant said: "More than thirty people."
Hongchun said calmly: "Old rules!"
The confidant nodded and shouted: "Kill all the captured people."
The prisoners kneeling on the ground began to cry.
"Spare your life!"
Hongchun was indifferent.
His father was an official in the Northern Liao Dynasty, and his home was confiscated because of corruption. His father asked him to escape through a dog hole, and he was tortured and killed without telling him where his son was.
From then on, revenge became Hongchun's driving force in life.
Hong Chun can be regarded as a genius in cultivation. He has relied on mediocre cultivation techniques to reach where he is today. It is not an exaggeration to call him a master.
But he soon discovered that he could not avenge himself alone, and could not even get close to the Dog Emperor, so he raised a group of horse thieves and relied on plunder to support them and sharpen their swords and guns.
His first attempt failed, and he was chased away by the Northern Liao army like a lost dog. This made him realize that having more people is useless, and no matter how many people there are, they are not as good as the elite.
So he reduced the number of horse thieves under his command to only three hundred, who were able to ride freely for a while.
As Beiliao continued to recover, Hongchun found that the possibility of revenge was getting lower and lower.
He was a little confused, feeling that he was a lonely ghost. The only thing that could prove his nobility was his long hair.
He has been having a hard time recently. After Liang Chao was wiped out in Chenzhou, the Tang army in Xuanzhou was also eyeing them and had the intention of dispatching to destroy them.
With this food, he would go to the grassland to find a place and stay there for half a year. Then he would be calm and calm.
The prisoners were being chopped to death, and the screams were quite ear-piercing.
"Hong Chun, you don't have to die!" A prisoner was stabbed but not dead. He lay on the ground and screamed miserably, "Wynn Khan will kill you all!"
Um?
Hongchun frowned, "This is close to the border of the Tang Dynasty, not a place belonging to the Jibo tribe."
The man gasped and said with a ferocious smile: "There are women in our tribe who are from Huai'en, otherwise how do you think there will be so much food? Damn you... just wait to die, hahahaha... Hier!"
The man glared and settled the matter.
Hong Chun felt chills all over his body. He turned his eyes and said, "Ask a question."
The two prisoners who survived were tortured, but not even a hair was extracted from them.
But one of them said something very interesting.
"The Tang Dynasty scouts didn't care about us even when they came."
this!
"Brother, the scouts of the Tang Dynasty were not merciless in plundering the grassland tribes. They didn't eat these fat sheep. Why?"
The confidant trembled: "I'm afraid it really has something to do with Wynn."
To the horse thieves, the Kipo Department is a behemoth and cannot be resisted.
"Hua En is henpecked, his lover... No wonder those Tang army scouts ignored him and turned against the Kibo tribe for the sake of a small tribe."
The confidant suddenly slapped his forehead, "When did you move here?"
The prisoner said: "It's only a few days."
Hongchun's eyelids were twitching wildly.
"Then Du Hui said that he came from Chenzhou. He learned that this small tribe was rich in Chenzhou. Damn it! This liar, brother!" His confidants stamped their feet and cursed: "We have been fooled!"
In order to survive, a prisoner said: "I know where the money is. It's in that tent. Mistress Wynn lives in it. There is a box that no one is allowed to touch."
The confidant followed his hand and looked over, "Isn't that the tent that Du Hui entered earlier?"
The tent had been burned down, and several horse thieves went over to rummage through the ruins, shouting: "There is a box, only half of it is left."
"That's the box!"
The box is empty at the moment.
Hong Chun thought of Yang Xuan's men who were killing and killing people in the tent earlier. Now he thought, those people must be getting gold and silver inside.
Gold and silver are small and easy to carry. Naturally, the women of Wynn cannot move with a lot of copper coins, which will be too conspicuous.
But now that the woman is dead and the tribe has been wiped out, the tribesmen who are lucky enough to escape will spread the news to Wynn's ears.
"Du Hui!"
Hongchun's eyes turned red.
"Leave some brothers to transport food, and the rest, follow me!"
…
"Run!"
Yang Xuan ran away with his men and headed south.
"It's so exciting to grab a handful and run away." The green light flashed excitedly.
The old thief touched the gold ingot in his arms. Wang Laoer took it out and took a bite without saying anything.
"Dirty!" The old thief slapped Wang Laoer in the face.
They fled until dawn, and the horse thief finally saw them.
"Chase!"
The horse thieves were ecstatic.
But a city appeared in front of it. On the top of the city, horns blared, the city gate opened, and a group of cavalry rushed out.
"withdraw!"
Hongchun gritted his teeth and led his people to retreat, and then sent someone to inquire about the news.
"Du Hui is the magistrate of Zhangyu County."
"No wonder he was so happy when he saw the officers and soldiers laughing. They sent people to Zhangyu County to find an opportunity to kill him!"
People who like to show off are also shameless. Once they are embarrassed, they will remember it for a lifetime.
When Qibo Khan Huaien learned that his lover had been killed by Hongchun, he immediately became furious and ordered his troops to attack Hongchun. However, he himself needed to think about how to calm down his wife who was even more angry than him.

…
Wang's iron ore mine is located in a hilly area, and some areas are open-pit mining, which is extremely rare.
The manager of the mine is called Ding Xi, who looks like a rich man, with an ambiguous smile on his fat face.
After the two introduced themselves, Ding Xiu smiled more and more ambiguously.
"It turned out to be Yang Langjun in person."
Yang Xuan smiled and said, "Do you recognize me?"
Ding Xi cupped his hands and said, "Although we haven't met each other yet, we have known each other for a long time!"
Divine friendship?
Yang Xuan looked at the iron ore, as if he saw a Mo Dao, a horizontal knife, and countless spears.
"Where is all this ore shipped?"
"Chang'an." Ding thought, pointing to the mine, "The ore here is good, with less impurities, and the iron produced is of better quality. The Chunyu family likes the ore produced here the most."
"I want to buy some."
Ding thought with a smile and said: "There are few guests in such a deserted place. Naturally, Yang Langjun came here not to see me, but for the ore. But what does Yang Langjun want the ore for?"
This is an old ghost. Yang Xuan said frankly: "Taiping is short of weapons. There are none in the state. A living person can't be suffocated to death. If not, I will come to Wang's to look for them."
Ding was startled. He probably didn't expect it to be for this, "Yang Langjun, this is..."
"In front of Taiping are the three major ministries, which have been captured many times. If you don't want to die, you have to mobilize all the people." Yang Xuanyan briefly and comprehensively explained the situation.
"Is it so difficult?" Ding sighed with sympathy, "But the sale of iron ore requires the consent of the family."
When he saw Yang Xuan narrowing his eyes slightly, he was a little cold. He thought of the second son-in-law of the family who thought highly of the young magistrate, and hurriedly explained: "It's not that I don't want to be accommodating. This is the rule of the Wang family. Unless it is an urgent matter, otherwise
I dare not break the rules."
"It's extremely urgent right now!" Yang Xuan was no longer polite.
"What do you mean?" Ding Xiu could manage such an important mine, his status in the Wang family was not low, and he knew many internal things. At this moment, Wei Wei's face turned cold, and the atmosphere suddenly became stiff.
The old thief whispered: "I'm afraid there will be a stalemate. Besides, gold is valuable, but there is a bottomless pit over there in Taiping. If you really want to build weapons, it will cost countless money!"
Yang Xuan took out a thick letter and said, "Hurry and send it to the Wang family in Chang'an and mention that if the Wang family is satisfied, I will supply Taiping's ore at half price from now on and send it all the way."
"Half price includes shipping!" Zhuque praised: "Xiao Xuanzi, you are so cunning."
Ding Xiu took it and said, "Maybe?"
