Chapter 240 Deserters
Leaving the street full of thatched houses, several men were in high spirits. They put their coats on their shoulders and shouted loudly: "Drink! Drink! Although the dock is dilapidated, there is everything!"
When he arrived at a wine shop, he ordered the shopkeeper to cook a freshly caught fish and a pot of meat, and the wine was served. He ate haphazardly until late in the evening, when a few men staggered around and dispersed.
Jiang Silang stood up and asked the shopkeeper: "How much did you spend today?"
The shopkeeper said: "My lord, you spend a lot of wine and meat. A total of three hundred dollars is enough."
Jiang Silang said: "Let's put it in the account. I went out in a hurry today, but I didn't bring any money with me."
The shop owner couldn't help but became anxious after hearing this: "Sir, we are a small business, how much money do we make in a day? If we don't give you this much money, doesn't it mean that we have been working for nothing for a month? Without this money, I won't have money to buy wine and meat tomorrow.
!”
Jiang Silang said: "Don't you know? Now I work under Dong Daguan! If you want to do business here, without Dong Daguan taking care of you, can you do it? The account will be kept on my head, Jiang Silang. With money, naturally
I will pay you back!"
After saying that, he kicked the stool over, glared at the store owner fiercely, and then left with a big smile.
The store owner watched from behind, cursing in a low voice. The entire Beiwu Town was within Dong Ping's sphere of influence, and the store owner did not dare to catch up.
When he arrived at the Ru River, Jiang Silang felt a little urgent to urinate. He walked behind a big willow tree, untied his belt, and peed on the river. After a while, he finished urinating and just pulled up his pants when he heard a man's voice behind him: "
Brother, there are too many evil people in this world. Be careful not to come to places like this under the trees on the roadside!"
Jiang Silang was shocked. When he was about to turn around, he felt a heavy blow on the back of his neck, and his body went limp.
The sun was setting in the west, and several small boats were floating on the Ru River. The rays of sunlight shone on the boats, casting a layer of golden light.
Jiang Silang woke up suddenly when water was splashed on his face. He saw several fierce men standing on the bow of the boat, and a big man wearing a green hat sat in the middle, with a pair of tiger eyes looking at him coldly.
Jiang Silang only felt that the man's gaze seemed to be cannibalistic, and he shuddered suddenly. He raised his hands and said: "I don't know your surname? I was attacked by a man just now. I think it was my brother who saved the younger one."
A man next to him said: "I knocked you down just now and brought you to this boat. Straight bitch, you are looking for women, drinking and having fun, but I can only watch from behind! If I hadn't ordered you, I would have killed you with a knife.
!”
Jiang Silang looked up and saw that the man who was speaking had a scar on his face and looked ferocious. He shrank his neck in fear and did not dare to speak anymore.
The man in the blue hat said: "To tell you the truth, we are originally officers and soldiers of Wang Kuan. His army was reorganized a few days ago. How could those of us who were rushing to kill in the battle stand the bird's breath? So we left the army and came here.
Looking for something to eat."
Jiang Silang said: "If the Lieutenant wants to use a small one, just call him. How can you find someone to beat me?"
The man said: "Wuyang, and even the surrounding counties, are under the influence of Dong Ping. If we want to eat, we have no choice but to wipe out Dong Ping first. I heard that Dong Ping's junior members valued you very much, so they came to find you.
, I want to ask you a few words."
Jiang Silang said: "Brother, I am incompetent, how can I know many things about Dong Daguan?"
The man said: "If I catch Dong Ping's important men, I'm afraid that guy will be alarmed. Ordinary people don't know anything, so they have no choice but to arrest you. I heard that Dong Ping sold a lot of tea from Xiangyang, is that right?"
Jiang Silang looked around and saw that the men all looked fierce. He did not dare to hide it and said, "What the captain said is this. A month ago, I went to Xiangyang City with the new members and bought a lot of tea. I mixed it with loquats and plums.
Here, it was transported to Beiwu Town."
The man nodded and asked, "How many are there? Where are these teas going to be transported?"
Seeing Jiang Silang lowering his head and not wanting to answer, a man next to him stretched out the knife in his hand and knocked it in front of Jiang Silang. He said: "If you hesitate even a little bit, grandpa will chop you up and throw you into the river."
fish!"
Jiang Silang was afraid and said hurriedly: "Back to Taiwei, a total of more than 1,600 kilograms have been transported back this time. I heard from others that after a few days, someone will be sent to transport it to Xiaoyao Town in the east and sell it to Peng Kuan."
The man said to the people around him: "Peng Jin was originally the commander-in-chief of the army. Because he came out early, more than a thousand people gathered in Xihua County. He was afraid that the army would send people to arrest him, so he only dared to do business in partnership with Dong Ping.
.”
A man laughed and said: "Just a boss, what kind of situation can he achieve? The boss is supposed to be promoted to the leadership, and he is the big shot!"
The man with the blue hat sneered: "Peng Jin originally has nothing. He has more than a thousand men and it is difficult to deal with him. I have no choice but to use Dong Ping to attack him! If we rob him of this batch of tea first, it will be a lucky draw!"
A bystander said: "We robbed the tea, who are we going to sell it to?"
The man in green hat said: "Have you not heard? The Jin people felt that the Central Plains was too big and there were too many people who were against them. They fought everywhere and wanted to retreat to the north of the Yellow River. Zhe Keqiu was defeated in Shaanzhou at the beginning of the year and was recommended by Nianhan.
The original prefect of Jinan was Liu Yu. If Liu Yu became emperor, it would not be easy to secure the throne. We robbed the tea and just sold it to the people he sent."
Several men said together: "It turns out that I have already thought about it! Needless to say, I first robbed Dong Ping's tea!"
The man in green hat turned his head, looked at Jiang Silang and said: "To tell you the truth, I was originally Feng Hui, the commander of Wang's Observation Army. Now I have brought more than 300 people to Beiwu Town to kill Dong Ping.
Take away his inheritance. If you are wise and come to me early, you will be rich in the future!"
Jiang Silang hurriedly kowtowed: "It turns out to be Taiwei Feng! If Taiwei takes him in, he will be shattered into pieces and serve for Taiwei!"
Feng Hui said: "If you are willing, you can stay in my army first. If you have done something good in robbing Dong Ping's tea this time, I will definitely reward you heavily! If it is not of any use, my men will not spare you!"
After saying that, he motioned to the person next to him to take Jiang Silang down.
Watching Jiang Silang leave, Feng Hui said: "Dong Ping was originally a local tycoon in Tangzhou, with a big tree and deep roots. Before arriving in Xiangyang, Dong Ping was the largest force in the area and was rampant for a while. I heard that Dong Ping had five or six hundred people, either.
His tribesmen are either bankers for many years and are extremely difficult to deal with. I estimate that this guy is similar to Zhai Kuan from Henan Prefecture, only there are fewer people."
Ren Xingdao said: "Who is Zhai Kuan? Even if we occupy several states and have tens of thousands of soldiers, we are just on an equal footing with Zhai Kuan. Dong Ping really has such power, how can we dare to offend him?"
Feng Hui smiled and said: "So, everyone has his own way of living. Facing the Jin army, Zhai Kuan resisted desperately and became a general of the imperial court. Dong Ping only knows how to bully the weak and rob states and counties. Now everyone shouts
Fight! Don’t be afraid of him. No matter how many people he has, they are just a mob. We have nearly 300 people. If we form a formation, we can destroy Dong Ping in one battle! Just grabbing the territory is not a rush to kill in the battle formation. We need to pay attention to strategy.
.When Dong Ping sends someone to transport tea to Xiaoyao Town, and we rob him on the way, he will definitely panic. When the time comes, he will rush into Beiwu Town and rob his property. At that time, we brothers will dominate one area, and we will naturally be happy!"
Ren Xingdao: "Beiwu Town is not far from Ruzhou. We are here. Will Wang Observer send troops to suppress us?"
Feng Hui said coldly: "What are you afraid of? There are no large armies guarding the surrounding states. Why don't you send troops to fight? Because these places are too close to the Jin people and they are important roads. We are afraid that the Jin people will attack. We are the same.
"
Seeing that everyone's expressions were still bad, Feng Hui said again: "When we can't resist anymore, we go north and vote for the Jin people. At that time, the high officials and generous salaries were also a good life!"
After hearing this, everyone's expressions softened. Among Wang Xiaolie's troops, they didn't have the guts to fight Wang Xiaolie. They originally wanted to surrender to Peng Jinyuan, but they heard that Peng Jinyuan's military discipline was also strict, so they finally gathered.
