Li Er took the people away in the middle of the night.
The excuse was to escort the wounded back to the city for treatment before returning to the team, and then the angry bandits came back to kill them for revenge. Only ten or twenty wounded returned to Zhucheng alive.
As for Zhao Long, the leader he chose was Doudou, as Chen Anzhi expected.
What Zhu Feng wants to do in every matter is to find a way to get along with Chen An.
In the early morning, there were still 250 people in the entire team.
After yesterday's victory but defeat in the battle, everyone's spirits were a little low.
However, inspired by Chen Anzhi, a master speaker, and Zhao Long's promise of additional rewards on behalf of the City Lord's Mansion, everyone became proud again.
After all, with four hundred versus six hundred yesterday, they not only repelled the notorious Gushanggang robbers, but also only injured forty or fifty people.
As for the statement that hundreds of people were killed in the battle, Chen Anzhi could not spread it now. It would be after Li Er and the others faked their death that they would tell it orally through the mouths of the wounded, and then through the Island Guard Department of the City Lord's Mansion and Chen Anzhi's Tax Collection Department. .
Therefore, they walked very slowly, and it took them a whole day to travel fifty miles.
Then it was time to camp in place for the night.
...
The next day, Japan is in the middle of the day.
"What a waste. One hundred people were killed in a single smoke attack, and the opponent still didn't dare to fight to the death, leaving a chance of survival.
Now you have the nerve to ask me for a pension? "
In a courtyard, after receiving the news, a man in black robe was furious.
The gangster Yu Da was chosen at the time, not because he was the most powerful gangster, but because he was the most reckless gangster in the entire Zhucheng territory.
As long as he has enough money, he can do anything.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be such a weird thing for him.
"Proprietor, my leader also tried his best, not to mention we also injured forty or fifty people on the other side."
The person in front of the man in black robe was the sentry beside Yu Da.
"You only injured fifty people, but you want ten thousand gold from me. What did you say at first? One life is one hundred gold."
The man in black robe was a little impatient.
"What, you look like you're trying to threaten me?
If it weren't for keeping you useful, would you have a hiding place in Zhucheng?
Bandit?
I won't let you have it, can you really do it? "
The man in black robe felt extremely cold.
Then he threw out a bag of gold beads like dog food. He still wanted to use this group of people, so he gave it to his face.
The sentry picked up the bag and weighed it. It was only about three thousand gold.
But there is no choice.
...
"Sir, a message came from Zhucheng. A group of people went to the Siying of Daji Town to assist in the battle. They were attacked by bandits at Gushan Hill and injured forty or fifty. The team escorting the wounded back was attacked by bandits again and almost died.
An Chen and Zhao Long suffered a total of 150 casualties in the interception and killing by the bandits in Gushanggang.
The Lord of Zhucheng City was furious and wanted to invite soldiers to the Anzhou Island Guards. "
As soon as the sentinel left with his front legs, someone came in from behind.
"Um?"
After hearing this report, the man in black robe was confused.
That's not what Yu Da personally said just now.
"Where is An Chen and his party?"
Putting aside his doubts, he first focused on Chen Anzhi.
"After getting off the post, I walked fifty miles for a day, and now I am camping next to the official road of fifty miles in Dajian Town.
As I expected, they wanted to wait for the city lord's palace to call back. "
Come and analyze.
"Xingwen, Haiyan is a serious matter, so I will help this matter first, and then the Siying will personally suppress it. At the same time, I will also write to the Anzhou Island Guards to prevent them from going to Zhucheng.
He couldn't be driven away even though he was guilty of killing a mere hundred island guards. After all, this was caused by bandits, and Zhu Cheng was able to get away with his stubborn illness.
Only when someone in a high position dies will the people above him be really angry. I originally thought that Zhao Long was not important enough, so the head of the Zhucheng Tax Collection Department jumped in on his own.
An Chen, your Lian Shen Chun is indeed good, but you shouldn't help him. I can only ask you to die! "
...
"What, we intercepted again and killed almost 150 people?"
Outside Zhucheng, in a manor, Yu was shocked.
Yesterday I was like a lost dog, but today I have become majestic?
"broken!"
Yu Da's expression changed when he came back to his senses.
The night before, he and the sentinel Yu Er left east and west. He asked Yu Er to get the reward first, and then secretly sent it to the brothers' hiding places to comfort them. But today, news came out that was inconsistent with the facts. This was a big deal. .
Yu Er must still not know about it there, and he will definitely still tell the story according to the original story.
This inconsistency will definitely anger the Lord.
The Lord would definitely say that if it weren't for those living people, he wouldn't have known there was such filth in it.
But Yu Da couldn't figure out what this dirty thing could be.
After all, the proprietor asked him to kill someone, but when he failed to do so, someone "killed" him.
Are you trying to frame me up as cheating for remuneration?
He regretted that he should feel sorry for his savings and let Yu Er get the money so quickly!
...
"Tell me, what do you mean?"
Yu Er, who was holding the golden bead, didn't go far before he was beaten into a cage.
At this moment, his skin and flesh were torn apart, and he was almost out of shape from being tortured.
"Proprietor, everything I said is true."
Yu Er struggled to respond.
In fact, he thought about it and agreed to it.
But the preface does not match the back tone, and it is difficult to justify it.
I blame myself for being too hasty.
Moreover, if it is later found to be fake, there will be no place for them.
He knew that even if his leader Yu Da wanted to fight back, he would be powerless.
Because bandits pay attention to one thing at a time. Once they are done or flee, they will hide in the smoke and wait for the wind to pass, so they will not gather to fight back.
This is the reason why bandits can make people disappear without a trace.
What's more, at that time, the leader had already had one arm chopped off and was seriously injured without courage.
"Could it be that a third party stepped in to frame it and make us fight among ourselves?"
said the person who had been following the proprietor.
Because people over there were flying in to spread the message, but the people there were indeed gone.
The situations described by the living people are all consistent.
Moreover, Yu Da is indeed a dog they keep.
...
"As expected, I'm still ordered to go!"
Zhao Long smiled helplessly, Chen Anzhi guessed correctly.
Others have already tried to pull them halfway, so how could they easily let them go back?
Therefore, he met several Takumi Guards who were delivering orders. After reading out the order from Captain Takumi with no expression on his face, he left with a look of contempt on his face.
Not even a person to lead the way was left behind.
"Why bother!
If a person wants to rise, he must first learn to pretend to be a dog. "
Takumi Guard and Shima Guard can actually be said to come from the same origin, but are sergeants with different systems.
Seeing that his subordinates, who were also sergeants, were not even looked at in the eyes, the disgust was not hidden.
As the commander of the island guards, Zhao Long was of course bitter.
Chen Anzhi comforted him.
According to this situation, this line of business has basically been included in his calculations, so he is confident.
Therefore, he felt relaxed.
But he never expected that just a time difference would not make De Yu Er and his boss truly suspicious of each other.
At most it's just a grudge.
