Chapter 223

After hearing Su Ping's report, Su Lu was somewhat interested and short of money.

There are too many people in yanwang stronghold. It's hard to fight. Moreover, it's boring to fight a little bandit who praises himself so much.

Su Ping was disappointed: "I followed my second brother to suppress bandits. All the way, I killed a river of blood. As long as it was a bandit with blood on his hands, I would cut off his head directly."

The mound also said in a muffled voice: "it's a pity that the bandits at that time couldn't help chopping. The way to transport grain was like today. The bandits didn't dare to stand up. They couldn't find anything to do except sleep."

"Newspaper, metropolitan governor, left army document."

A herald rushed up and presented a military affairs booklet to Su Lu.

Su Lu glanced at the herald riding a double horse and asked, "sun Datou, you're a good boy. You dare to come here alone from the left army. You're not afraid of bandits catching you."

Big head sun smiled: "it's all right. I have an amulet. Now the robes of the left army are not afraid of bandits. On the contrary, bandits are afraid of us."

CHEN Si finally couldn't bear it. He scolded sun Datou: "what kind of hoop fart did your grandson put? The bandits are afraid of you. How can they be afraid of you?"

Sun Datou smiled: "no one of our scouts of the left army has been caught by the bandits, but as long as the name of the governor is reported, the bandits robbed our property at most and sent us out of the stronghold."

A group of guards and civilian men all looked at Su Lu in shock, as if you were pretending to succeed.

Su Lu frowned and felt a little wrong. The bandits were afraid of being normal. It was normal for a few old bandits in the stockade to be afraid of themselves, but so many bandits were afraid of themselves.

Aren't there a few bloody men among the bandits? The bandits are afraid of themselves like tigers. There must be a problem.

"Governor, I'm still waiting for your reply."

Sun Datou asked Su Lu and said, "governor Zhang Lu specially explained before coming. We must wait until the governor's reply. The next move of the left army depends on the governor's meaning."

Su Lu remembered that he had a military affairs booklet in his hand. He read it carefully. Su Lu thought about it and said.

"Let Zhang Lu go to the camp again, saying that the left army's armour is not complete, the soldiers are too few, and the horses are not enough to get out of the pass. Let the camp make up for the horses."

Sun Datou bowed to Su Lu, turned his horse's head and returned to the left army to reply.

The grain team continued to move forward. Ten days later, they returned to Beiyang and the gate of Nanguan camp. Guo Dashan smiled and narrowed his eyes and joked with Lao Fan.

"Old fan, you brought a lot of things back this time. Why didn't the bandits dare rob you?"

Old fan's black face was full of pride: "what's the matter? You're looking forward to bandits robbing me! Let me tell you, bandits don't rob me. When we ran faster than one, we were caught. They begged us for mercy. If they said they weren't bandits, they were almost sworn to the ancestral tablet."

The grain team entered the camp and handed over materials and documents as usual.

He Congzhi looked at the document and gave Su Lu a thumbs up: "the governor is powerful. He is worthy of being the first general in the north. The bandits don't dare to stand up here. The discount rate of this grain is very low, less than half of it. It's good."

Lao Fan impatiently urged he Congzhi: "all right, Lao he, hurry, sign and issue the document, let's go."

He Congzhi smiled and began to sign the document, scolding Lao Fan and saying:

"You son of a turtle, I used to sign and issue documents quickly. You kept nagging. Now I sign and issue documents slowly to let you have a rest. Your boy is also responsible for this and that."

Old fan looked contemptuous: "it's no wonder you can only stay in Nanguan camp. You don't have any eyesight and price. How can a famous general like Hou Ye transport grain with me all his life? Sooner or later, he will be transferred to great use. I must transport grain several times while Hou Ye is still in our baggage camp."

"No, I'm going to hurry up."

Old fan took the handover document and hurried out of the camp to load the truck.

He Congzhi looked at Lao Fan's back in surprise and said that the grandson looked careless. Unexpectedly, he was like a mirror in his heart.

Su Lu said a few words to he Congzhi, handed over the documents and military brochures, and turned out of the camp.

There was a lot of noise in the camp. People who loaded cars, pushed and pulled pack horses, and clamored to see their families at the gate of the camp all gathered.

Mound son took the steamed bread with vegetable soup and said, "Lord Hou, you can make do. We still can't go back to the city this time."

Su Lu took the dry steamed bread, took a bite, ordered and said, "the camp war has started, and we need food, grass and clothes urgently. We have to transport it quickly. We can't delay. Tell the brothers that when the task is finished, there will be fifty liang of hard silver."

Su Ping, who was eating the steamed bread next to him, almost threw the steamed bread into the sky. He disagreed: "second brother, there are too many of them. If the reward is not enough, we have to think about it again."

CHEN Si, who was drinking vegetable soup next to him, said, "Lord, this silver can't be taken for nothing. Lord, what do we brothers want to do?"

Su Lu looked at the civilian man who came back from the door with his baggage and said, "urge the grain team to speed up and clean up the bandit stockade along the road to see why they are so afraid of me and collect the brothers' silver."

Some guards who eat steamed bread and drink vegetable soup. Look at me, I'll look at you.

Han Daniu puzzled and asked, "Lord Hou, the bandits didn't say it. They were afraid that you would frustrate them. That's why they didn't dare to provoke us. You used to be so famous that they were afraid of you."

Su Lu looked at Lao Wang, who was holding a burden and leading his daughter to him, raised a sneer at the corners of his mouth and said, "if I were a bandit, even if I was afraid of you, Su Lu, but I wouldn't say it."

"Moreover, there are not many stockaded villages I have swept. Now the stockaded villages we have swept are afraid of me, and the ones we haven't swept are afraid of me. Even the bandits from Lintao to Gongqian pass are afraid of me. It doesn't make sense. I haven't swept that way."

"There's a problem here."

Su Lu squinted.

Lao Wang led Dani over and said hello to Su Lu: "Lord Hou, this is my daughter. Bring it here to give you a gift, girl. I haven't seen Lord Hou yet."

Dani blessed Su Lufu and said in a surprised voice, "Lord, it's really you. You used to be a lord, but now you're a lord!"

Lao Wang slapped Dani's head on the melon seeds and scolded: "pig brain, you dare to say anything. The Marquis has outstanding merit. There are rules for promotion."

"Lord Hou, my Dani is about to get married. What about Lao Huang's house opposite? The official witness is a leader of our county yamen. I wonder if Lord hou can help us appoint someone to help Nizi get married."

"My lord Wang knows too few people to find a bigger official than you. Lord Hou, can you help us find a master to marry Nizi?"

The wrinkles on Lao Wang's face were like gullies. Looking at Su Lu, he tried to squeeze out a smile on his face. In his eyes, there was a strong sense of fatigue and worry.

Dani looked at Su Lu timidly, her cheeks full of expectation.

Su Lu nodded and said casually, "OK, I'll prove your marriage later. Well, in case, I said, in case I can't come back, you take my jade pendant to county magistrate Tang and ask him to prove your marriage."

Su Lu said and took out a jade pendant to be a voucher for Dani.

Lao Wang slapped Dani's hand and said, "you dead girl really dare to ask for it. It's the property of the marquis. When the Marquis says to prove marriage, he can naturally prove marriage to you. What else do you want, county magistrate Tang? Silly."

Dani looked at her father sadly.

Lao Wang smiled, the loss in his eyes disappeared, the whole person seemed to be infected with a layer of light, and his tone of voice was light.

"Thank you, Mr. Wang. I'm very grateful. When I become a guard in the future, I will work hard and live up to your expectations."
