The little leader was secretly surprised, and the other sergeants who were left behind all looked at each other. I don't know what happened, but I saw another figure in the woods. The ten people kept retreating, and got together in front of the vehicle. He looked at the little leader eagerly.
The little leader glared at a few people and said in a low voice: "Look at what I am doing. The damn captain is nowhere to be seen. I don't know what to do. Brothers, please be careful and don't follow other people's ways."
Just as he finished speaking, there was a noise in the woods, and a dozen or so people jumped out. One in front was holding a steel fork, and the other was holding a steel knife. The people behind were all holding long poles, and they formed two rows to block the road.
Zhou Bao held the steel fork and looked at the team. There were about a dozen officers and soldiers gathered in one place, not daring to say a word. Behind them were livestock and vehicles, all of which were full of bags. They must be either grains or other baggage. He thought to himself: "Yes, it's really good. We waited three days for such a deal. Now the public warehouse in the villa will be full. However, with so many things, it is difficult to walk along the river beach. I'm afraid I will have to run several times. Just go there”
After listening to Zhou Xing's instructions, he did not dare to harm the lives of the people easily. Seeing that the officers and soldiers did not come forward, he ignored them and just lined up to block the official road, waiting for Zhou Xing to come down.
Zhou Xing took Zhou Can, Wang Tong and others through the woods and came to the official road. Those officers and soldiers saw that the bandits were in large numbers. The people behind them still had military uniforms and ordnances in their hands. There were a lot of blood stains on them. They guessed that their partners had been handed over to these people. They were frightened. Trembling. The little leader's lips trembled for a long time and he was speechless. He stamped his feet and shouted: "Run, what are you waiting for?" While shouting, he ran back. After hearing this, the sergeants refused to leave any one behind. They threw down their weapons, turned around and ran back.
Zhou Bao said angrily: "You courageous gangster, why the hell are you running back? You're going to give Huangshi boy a lot of fun."
Zhou Can smiled and said: "Forget it, you killed that captain, and you had a great time."
Wang Tongtong: "You can do it too. Leading people from the front to lure the enemy deep, and commanding the assassination from behind. It's quite enjoyable. But I didn't catch anything. I stayed in the woods for three days and just watched the fun. Even a The hair can also be touched."
Zhou Xing chuckled: "Okay, okay. This is the first time we go out and kill dozens of enemies. We only injured two brothers and we still have this ticket of food and grass. Hehe, we made a profit."
As he spoke, he led the people over.
The people who were transporting food couldn't help but hide back when they saw these people approaching, and the smell of blood from the weapons hit their noses. Luo Yin was riding a donkey. He was already in front, but now he stood out even more. Lord Luo was not afraid, jumped off the donkey and stood in the middle of the road. He cupped his hands in front of everyone and said, "Bo Luoyin, Lord of Xiamian County, please give me the title of a good man!"
Just as Zhou Bao was about to answer, Zhou Xing had already grabbed Luo Yin and looked him up and down. He had a tall and thin figure, a long and thin face, a few sparse beards, and his eyes were half open and half closed, as if he hadn't woken up. Occasionally, When he opened it, the light flickered. The blue official uniform has faded and looks gray, with two patches clearly patched in front of him. Lord Bo Zhouxing still knows that the magistrate of a county has a county magistrate and a chief Bo, and a county captain and a military officer. The chief Bo is an official official of the imperial court and the third-in-command in Xi'an. Judging from the poor and poor appearance of this boss, he must be an upright official.
Zhou Xinggong cupped his hands and said, "It turns out that Lord Luo is Bo. I'm rude. I'm rude. We are the scouts of the Chinese army who have taken over Marshal Wang from Xichuan. We are here on official business. What advice can Lord Bo give us?"
Luo Yin was surprised when he heard that they were Wang Zongdi's subordinates. The fighting was so tight in front, and Wang Zongdi's subordinates actually got in. It seemed that not only those sergeants were completely finished, but he himself was probably going to die too. this.
Luo Yin turned around, looked at the people gathered behind him, and sighed. He bowed deeply to Zhou Xing and said: "Although Marshal Wang is not the governor of Shannan West Road, he is still an official of the Tang Dynasty. If you kill those soldiers, that's it. When the two armies fight, they will use all possible means. It’s nothing. It’s just that the people are innocent. The army, food and equipment are at your disposal. I just ask the general to show his noble hand and let them live. "
Zhou Xing sneered and said, "You guy, you don't even know your own life or death, yet you care about helping others escape."
Luo Yin straightened his waist and said solemnly: "I am forty-five years old, and I think that I have done nothing wrong in my life. Even if I am killed by you, it does not mean that I have caused misfortune and died, but I deserve it. Life and death are all up to you, I have more It's too long to say a single word. It's just common people, the general has to let it go and let it go. General Wang Zongdi is a famous general of the Shu army, and he is not a murderous person. Why should the general make sure everything is done?"
Zhou Can was behind and whispered: "Although this old man is thin, he is very chivalrous and a good man."
Zhou Xing didn't respond to him and said: "Since you are the boss, there must be many things in this team. You remember clearly. Let me ask you, what are these?"
Luo Yin sighed and replied: "Eight hundred shi of food, 200 bolts of cloth, more than 350,000 yuan, and 600 weapons, swords and guns."
Zhou Xing nodded and said with a smile: "Seeing that you are so cooperative, I will obey you and not kill any of the people. I will keep these things."
Luo Yin nodded and asked: "Master General, thank you very much Luo Yin. The general only has these men and horses. Later, Zhou Jiedu sent 30,000 troops. Even if the general keeps these baggage and grain and grass, he is afraid that he will not be able to transport them away, so he can only Was it burned to the ground?"
Wang Tong was already impatient and stepped forward and shouted: "My general knows how to deal with it, so why bother?"
Luo Yin's face was ashen and sweat broke out on his face. He knelt down to Zhou Xing and said, "The general is kind and spared these people. But the people of Mian County have been looted. I don't know how many people there will be in this winter and spring." How many people will starve to death? Since the general has let these people go, why not do a good deed and let these people take some food at will, so as to save some seeds for next year. Burning means burning. The general's kindness is the common people of Mian County. Thousands of families give birth to Buddhas." As he spoke, tears also flowed down.
Zhou Xing and others couldn't help but be stunned when they saw Luo Yin begging for life for the people. The people behind him also knelt down.
Zhou Xing felt happy when he saw so many supplies in this team. Hearing what Luo Yin said was pitiful, seeing that those people were just like the villagers in the villa, they were ordinary simple farmers. How could Zhou Xing be willing to kill them all? , using Luo Yin's words, he pretended to be fierce and shouted: "The king is kind and naturally loves his people. Listen, our army will win within three to five days. Zhou Jimi is cruel and unkind. He doesn't care about your life or death. This general The brave captain under Marshal Wang is acting for heaven today. Our army will be victorious and attack every enemy. You must not make mistakes. The food in the car is at your disposal. Leave quickly. If you stay here, we will kill you."
At this time, the fleeing soldiers had been beheaded by Huang Shi and others. The common people were stunned after hearing what Zhou Xing said, and could not believe that such a good thing could happen. Luo Yin understood what he heard, got up quickly, and shouted to the people: "General, please be kind, if you don't get up quickly, take as much as you can, seek refuge with relatives and friends, hide in the countryside, and never return to the city."
Only then did the people believe it, and they kowtowed together and shouted: "The general is righteous, and the princes will live forever!" "Thank you so much, General, for your great virtue, and thank you Lord Luo."
These people got up and ran to the grain truck together. Those who were strong picked up one or two bags and left. Those who were weak also picked up one bag and walked back tremblingly. Zhou Xing asked Wang Tong to go to the back and pass the order. All the people were not allowed to stay in trouble and were released. They must follow behind. If anyone lingered, they must be killed.
Wang Tong ran away, and all these people hurriedly carried the food on their backs and left. After a while, there was no one left. These people, after walking a long way, were afraid of the official checkpoints in front and did not take the official road. They all dispersed up the mountain. Luo Yin stood there with a smile on his face. Then he sighed again, took off his official hat, took off his official uniform, and threw it on the ground. He looked at Zhou Xing and others coldly.
Zhou Xing ignored him and sent two people back to the village urgently to deliver an order. All the people in the village, over 15 years old and under 50 years old, under the command of the commander of this class, should all go to the mouth of the river valley to carry things. Then he asked all the regiments to move the food and materials on the cart into the deep mountains and forests beside the road.
Those regiment heroes immediately threw down their bamboo poles, picked up grain bags and supplies, and ran into the forest. In just a short time, they carried more than three hundred stones into the forest.
Zhou Xing asked people to pull the livestock apart and gather together to watch. Everyone, except the livestock and camels, had to carry the remaining supplies and food. All large and small vehicles were piled with hay and dead branches. Huang Shi was left behind and led a group of people to guard the forest. He led the rest of the regiment, turned from the official road to the river valley, and headed towards the villa.
Regarding Luo Yin, Zhou Xing felt that this man not only loved the people, but also had something in his belly. He could neither let him go nor be willing to kill him, so he arranged for two soldiers to watch him closely and still let him sit on the donkey. Go up, wrap up in the team, and walk towards the valley.
Seeing Zhou Xing's actions, Luo Yin also had doubts in his heart. If these were the men and horses of the Shu army, why would they go to such trouble for this small amount of supplies? Take what you can get, and burn what you can't take away. I have never seen them eat dry like this. Pure, an army that is unwilling to give up. Something feels wrong. However, seeing how Zhou Xing and the others treat the people, they are quite kind and don't look like cruel people. Since there are many of them at the scene, they will probably not take their own lives again.
As they walked deeper and deeper into the mountains, Zhou Xing and the others were very careful. There were people behind to clean up the livestock excrement to avoid being followed. The road along the river valley was originally difficult for people to walk on, but these big animals walked even more slowly, taking a full two hours. Just entered the valley.
At this time, although the young and old in the villa did not know the specific situation, they heard from the messenger that there was a large amount of things to be transported in. Hundreds of people had been waiting at the entrance of the valley for a long time. When they saw the group heroes coming back, they swarmed over to greet them. Uncle Zhou Zhou and Uncle Wang walked in the front, laughing and asking: "Chief Zhou, following your order, everything in the village has come. Where did this come from? There are so many!"
Zhou Xing chuckled and said: "Uncle Zhou Zhou, Uncle Wang, don't ask now, we will talk about it later. In this way, all the regiments, put down their things and gather immediately. Uncle Zhou, Uncle Chen, Uncle Zhou, Zhou Hui, Wang He, Chen Jian, the three of you, lead the old and young women, one will lead these animals, but also carry the things, and return to the village immediately. If you can't take it for the time being, leave it here for the time being. This old master will be handed over to your youth group, but you have to watch it. It's tight. Firstly, we can't let him run away, and secondly, we can't let anything happen to him. Do you understand? Zhou Hui, Wang He and Chen Jian responded loudly: "Sir, don't worry, we will definitely do it."
Zhou Xing then said to Zhou Bao: "Blow the whistle and gather together. All other regiments will practice their bravery and set off immediately to return to the official road."
Zhou Bao agreed and blew the bamboo whistle. After hearing this, the regiment heroes immediately put down their things and lined up to assemble under the leadership of the squad leaders.
After a while, the team was assembled. Zhou Xing was very satisfied. Looking at the exhausted team members who had just returned from outside, Zhou Xing said loudly: "Everyone is rushing and carrying goods. It is indeed hard, but there are still people outside. If three or four hundred shi of food are not transported in today, then the army will arrive tomorrow, and the food will be gone, and our work will be in vain. No wonder, everyone will have to work hard twice. We can't leave anything for them." Although the team members and coaches worked hard, they were extremely excited to get so many things at once, Zhou Xing finished. Everyone shouted in unison: "Move them all back, no one can stay." Especially the Tuan Yong who originally stayed in the village and did not go out with the team shouted even louder. Although those team players were older and more stable , but after all, I had never seen so much food and supplies, and I was so happy that I fainted. Regardless of my identity, I also shouted along.
Zhou Xing asked Huang Hai to lead the people, and nearly two hundred people headed out of the valley. Seeing that the sky was gradually getting dark, it was even more difficult to walk at night on the riverbank covered with stones and weeds.
Zhou Xingren ordered people to light up torches and march quickly with the torches. When they were close to the mouth of the valley, they extinguished the torches and stopped the team to let Zhou Can lead the people to contact the explorers. After a while, Zhou Can led the people who had been left on guard. Tuan Yong came back and told Zhou Xing that everything was safe and sound. Huang Shi and others were still looking at supplies in the mountains and forests. Zhou Xingxin said: "They didn't come during the day. The officers and soldiers will definitely not come at night. As long as today passes, no one will know that we did this. Even if we capture a few people, they will be returned to the Wang Zong." In my name, hehe, I got the benefit, and someone else took the blame. This is really not a bad thing.
Zhou Xing asked everyone to be confident and bold, and still held up the torch. When they arrived at the official road, they came to the ambush place. Huang Shi and others also walked out of the woods and said: "We brothers have set up sentries for the ambush several miles in front and behind. Quiet." It seems like no one has discovered those people yet."
Zhou Xing said with a smile: "Even if we find out, catch them and question them, those officers and soldiers will not dare to come. The number of people who ambushed and set up traps is no more than a hundred or ten. Who is willing to kill or survive to come to Wang Zongdi?" The military scout’s bad luck?”
Huang Shi also smiled, hurriedly greeted everyone, and carried out the supplies that had been moved into the forest. When we came this time, some team members had already prepared for the training, and many people brought ropes and poles. These people all came from a background of hard work, and no one was afraid of getting tired. They were able to carry more than three hundred stones of food at once. Zhou Can, Huang Hai, led the team back. He estimated that the team had entered the river valley. Zhou Xing asked Huang Shi to hand over all the brothers who were on sentry duty in the distance.
