Not that I'm biased.
It's just that Zheng Qiao and his two brothers are both cesspits, and no one is better than the other. They fight and the people suffer.
Brother Shen, by helping those two brothers, he is also aiding the evil!
"Why are you so stunned? Let's go quickly!"
The soldiers urged Zhai Le, threatening to kick him if he was stunned again. Zhai Le smiled innocently and said repeatedly: "Master Bing, don't be angry, Master Bing, don't be angry, it's coming!"
He turned his wrist, the cattle whip in his hand wavered slightly, and the stopped cattle and sheep followed the instructions obediently.
Zhai Le used to be a person who jumped up and down and loved to learn everything. He had learned a lot of tricks in herding cattle and sheep, and he also acted like a cowherd. The soldiers did not suspect them, they treated them as ordinary people and managed to sneak into the rebel camp smoothly.
They drove the cattle and sheep to their destination.
The soldiers also ordered them to take good care of the cattle and sheep.
These are "food and fodder", and those who give extra meals to the soldiers will be killed later. As for the rules that farm cattle are precious and cannot be slaughtered?
Hehe, it’s not their cow.
Nor do they know how to plow the land.
If you kill it, you can eat it, but if you don't kill it, you don't know who will benefit.
When no one was watching them, Zhai Le pretended to feed the cows while whispering privately to his cousin.
"Brother, I just saw Brother Shen."
Zhai Huan hummed, indicating that he knew.
Zhai Le: "Brother, why do you think Brother Shen is here?"
Zhai Huan said: "Maybe everyone has his own ambitions."
This directly implied that Shen Tang was hanging out with the rebels. Zhai Le immediately retorted: "I believe Brother Shen is not that kind of person!"
"Why would someone who is not like that intercept tax collectors again?"
Zhai Huan asked back.
Zhai Le was speechless when asked, not knowing how to respond, and said: "But Brother Shen, he didn't expose us..."
Zhai Huan asked: "Did he recognize it?"
Zhai Le said firmly: "Yes, I must have recognized him."
That look is absolutely unmistakable!
If Brother Shen is really allied with the rebels, there is no reason why he would not say anything after recognizing the two of them. In other words - Brother Shen either has an unspeakable difficulty and cannot control himself, or they are also approaching the rebels with some purpose. The military camp is waiting for an opportunity to cause trouble!
When I think about it, I feel more and more that the guess is the truth.
Zhai Huan is not so optimistic.
He solemnly warned: "Don't take it lightly."
Zhai Le said: "Yeah."
It was about their brother's wealth and life, so he wouldn't be careless. Thinking of his experiences along the way, Zhai Le, who is optimistic by nature, couldn't help but sigh heavily. He knew that things in the world were changing, but he did not expect that they would change to such an extent that they were "changed beyond all recognition."
When they received the smoke that day, their brothers retreated with Captain Yang and managed to survive for a day before they fully recovered.
This is a high-level brave warrior who would not be able to defeat an ordinary person in seven to eight days. What I saw along the way was shocking.
Although Captain Yang's troops did not suffer much loss in the Battle of Taxes and Silver, and their strength was still relatively intact, there was a fatal problem before them - insufficient water and food!
To be precise, there was not enough dry food, so I could barely survive the whole day!
The rest is on the tax car.
They could neither turn back to get dry food, nor continue their rapid march - that would be too exhausting! Once we encounter rebels and horses, the enemy has strong troops and horses, but our troops are tired and exhausted. The former still has a numerical advantage, but the latter will only die!
These concerns distract people. While resting on the way back to the rescue, soldiers one after another fled from the battlefield, totaling more than a hundred people. Even if Captain Yang uses iron and blood to stop it, it can only temporarily suppress the floating people's hearts, but it cannot restore the declining momentum.
Seeing this situation, Zhai Huan took the opportunity to make a suggestion.
To put it simply, it is to rob small-scale rebels, collect available military supplies from them, and maintain their own operations.
This proposal was categorically rejected by Captain Yang at first!
It's not that he doesn't know that the proposal is good and can help them sustain longer, but what he needs now is a quick return of support!
It’s too late. Once Xiaocheng is captured...
Captain Yang's face was ashen and he didn't dare to think about it at all. At that time, Zheng Qiao led his troops to capture Sibao County, burned, killed, and looted, which made the originally prosperous Sibao County collapse and turn into a wasteland thousands of miles full of starvation. It took two or three years to recover a little bit...
His family members are still in Xiaocheng!
If the siege is followed by massacre...
Just thinking about it made Captain Yang so angry that he wanted to kill someone.
I wish I could capture the governor Yan Cheng and cut him into pieces!
Zhai Huan asked coldly: "According to Captain Yang's method, should we all go back to help, or should we go back and die?"
First, he hurriedly and slowly escorted the grain and fodder, changed lanes on the way and encountered heavy rain, fought fiercely with the gangsters who robbed the tax bank in the middle of the night, and then rushed back to help... The whole process did not even take a good breath. The brave warriors can resist, but what about ordinary soldiers?
Give up the lives of these soldiers?
If they give up, what's wrong with them running away in fear of death?
Captain Yang said coldly: "This is different! It's not your hometown and family members who are threatened! How many people in Xiaocheng are still waiting... Maybe if we delay for an extra quarter of an hour, the ones who will die..."
Zhai Huan cut off his words without politeness and said: "Yes, our brothers are indeed not natives, so there is no need to worry."
Captain Yang's big copper eyes widened, his nose turned red with anger, and his cheek muscles trembled. Zhai Huan continued: "But which of the soldiers present is not from Xiaocheng? Even if they are not locals from Xiaocheng, judging by their age, they are probably married... Captain Yang might as well ask who is not anxious and angry?"
Captain Yang is not the only one who is anxious.
No matter how anxious you are, you can’t rush to die!
Captain Yang clenched his fists: "But..."
"Nothing but!" Zhai Huan spoke with a firm tone of giving orders, with a toughness that could not be argued or refused. He was not afraid of Captain Yang's glare at all, "Isn't Captain Yang's 'return to aid' just to delay the enemy?" Troops to relieve our pressure?”
Only when you save your life can you kill the enemy.
If your life is gone, then there is no meaning.
Captain Yang's face turned red and green.
The fists were tightened and loosened, loosened and tightened again.
Zhai Huan knew that his hesitation problem had occurred again, so he winked at his cousin. Zhai Huan understood and used his momentum to suppress the soldiers. These soldiers looked troubled, but the aura of high-level brave warriors was not so easy to resist.
They will have the uncontrollable desire to surrender. If they are not strong-minded, they will simply obey. They will not be able to get rid of the influence until the courageous warrior takes back his momentum. Seeing this, Captain Yang had no choice but to close his eyes and listen to Zhai Huan's suggestion.
Perhaps due to good luck, the rebel teams we met along the way were all very small. We gained a lot along the way and the sluggish momentum was restored a lot. Until he met the group of soldiers called "Recruiting Soldiers", who were actually robbing homes and houses, Zhai Huan suddenly got into his mind.
He's ready to play a big game!
