Huaiyuan County was already occupied by bandits on the way they came before, so they spared a big circle just to avoid the bandits in Huaiyuan County, but why do they want to get together now?
You must know that they are only in the early 200s now.
Although the second battalion general manager had doubts in his heart, he turned around and ordered to go down the fastest. Qi Haoran nodded slightly. The reason why he chose him to follow him was because he was the most obedient but the least talkative among the five battalion generals. Know what to ask and what not to ask.
In the army, the orders of Shangguan only need to be executed.
Feibai didn't have this self-consciousness. He followed Qi Haoran in a ghostly way and asked, "Master, how do we go to Huaiyuan County? What if we are caught?"
"We are just a small band of bandits, who will arrest us?" Qi Haoran said nonchalantly, "Don't worry, with the Lord here, you can't die."
Feibai widened his eyes, lowered his voice and asked, "Master, when did we become bandits?"
"When changing clothes," Qi Haoran said while finding a set of patched clothes from the cabinet of the private house, took off the clothes on his body and put them on, and then patted his stomach and said, "How is it? Like a robbery bandit?"
Feibai shook his head, "You seem to have been robbed by bandits."
Qi Haoran kicked him and said, "Go and bring the pot ashes, and you can turn it around. By the way, you have to change your clothes. From now on, you will not be your servant, but Grandpa's younger brother, you will be called Grandpa in charge in the future, do you know?"
Feibai turned around and brought the pot ashes, trying to persuade him, "Master, even if you want to investigate the whereabouts of those people, you don't need to pretend to be a bandit, if the old sour scholars in the court know about it, they won't be able to impeach you. ?"
"If they want to impeach, just impeach them. The lord doesn't care. Are you willing to pretend to be a bandit? This is a last resort. Those people have spent so much effort bypassing Yungui and entering Jinghu, definitely not thinking of Jinghu. It’s as simple as making a circle or slaughtering a village, and after Jinghu is Lin’an…” Qi Haoran said after a while, “Except Huaiyuan County, other places around here are still under the control of the imperial court, because bandits are rampant, Now that patrols have been strengthened everywhere, it is difficult for so many strangers to pass through the area controlled by the imperial court, but it is different outside of this."
"Although the bandits have occupied the city, there are few that they can fully grasp. They are chaotic and have different camps. It's easy for them to get in with hundreds of people."
"But they have been gone for two days, and they should have passed Huaiyuan County by now, so why do we still go to Huaiyuan County to become bandits?"
"Who said I'm going to Huaiyuan County to become a bandit? Huaiyuan is just a springboard. Nowadays, besides the imperial army in Jinghu, most of them are bandits. In some respects, the information source of bandits is faster and more comprehensive than that of the imperial army. Think, if you can have a place among the bandits, can you ask the bandits to help find these people, or even kill them?"
Fei Bai opened his mouth wide and stammered to stop him, "Master, Fourth Master, isn't this game of chess too big? Why don't we just follow the traces honestly, the big guy won't sleep anymore, it's hard work. Some people can always be found out, when you are an official, you bring a group of soldiers into the bandits' den, if you are found, you have not seen the young master."
Qi Haoran has always been a person who is very good at listening to the opinions of his subordinates, so he thought about it carefully, and finally felt that his idea was more pros than cons, so he said unswervingly: "The master has made up his mind, hurry up and change your clothes. , and also, call the big guys."
Qi Haoran is going to do a general mobilization before the war. The soldiers who have changed their clothes are standing in front of the Daping, with all kinds of messy clothes and a somewhat sluggish look. At first glance, they are remnants of defeated soldiers. If it is normal, Qi Haoran is determined to see this appearance. He had to kick them, but now Qi Haoran was very satisfied. He felt that the soldiers didn't have to pretend, just pulling them out like this would be a situation where a bunch of little bandits called the imperial army to break up.
Qi Haoran shared his thoughts and what everyone was going to say in the future, saying, "I know that you have been wronged in this mission. After all, it's a bit unbelievable for a soldier to pretend to be a bandit, but compared to that. Bandits, Xixia soldiers are undoubtedly more hateful..."
The soldiers of Jinghu had only heard how terrible the Hu people were, and how hateful the foreign humiliation was, but they had never fought against the Hu people, and they had never even met each other, so their abhorrence only stayed on the facts and the facts of Tu Village. All kinds of hearsay.
Qi Haoran told everyone based on his own experience that once the Hu people were allowed to enter the customs, the people would have no way to survive, which directly raised the honor and difficulty of their mission by three grades.
The soldiers were both excited and scared when they heard it. In the end, they had to hide the expressions on their faces. According to what Qi Haoran said, they were as sluggish as before.
Qi Haoran didn't expect his mobilization effect to be so good, it was self-defeating, he could only guide everyone on it, sweating profusely, Feibai's mouth twitched, and he whispered: "Master, I think it's the way it is now, the more you guide you. The more chaotic it gets, the more people will not know what to do at that time.”
Qi Haoran sighed, nodded, and waved the attack to Huaiyuan County.
Two days later, they arrived at the gate of Huaiyuan County along the avenue. At the gate stood some bandits with different postures and postures. They were impatiently bringing pedestrians into the city. When they saw one or two suspicious people, they waved their knives to stop them. Check it up and down and put it in if there is no problem.
Qi Haoran brought the people to a stop not far from the city gate. The bandits who guarded the gate had spotted them long ago and sent people back to find someone who could be in charge, and greeted them by himself.
Qi Haoran and his party are really too eye-catching. More than 200 people gathered together, dressed in rags, and their expressions were a little sluggish. In this place where bandits are rampant, it is easy to make people think in the wrong direction.
Feeling that everyone is a bandit's gatekeeper, the bandit walked up to him with a good attitude and asked, "Where did you come from?"
Qi Haoran looked him up and down, and continued to look up at the plaque on the gate of the city. The bandit guard frowned, and Feibai immediately bent over with a smile and said: "Brother, forgive me, our boss is still young, so he has a bit of a temper. "While talking, he took a piece of broken silver and stuffed it into the opponent's hand.
The guard bandit raised his eyebrows slightly, pinched the broken silver in his sleeve, raised his eyelids and glanced at Qi Haoran, and said with a half-smile, "The big boss? It seems to be the same way, but I don't know where this young man is. What? What is this going to do?"
"Forgive me, brother," Fei Bai pulled the guard bandits aside and whispered, "Our stockade originally had more than 2,000 people, but it was inexplicably besieged by the imperial court some time ago, and all the people were scattered, only us 200 people. A lot of people followed our big boss to break out, and we suffered heavy losses, so the big boss is in a bad mood, please forgive me."
"Hmph, I'm willing to forgive me, but the head of the city is not as easy to talk as I am. I said you are too good at picking masters, right? You are only in your teens? Young people are the most impulsive. People, you must not be pitted to death?"
Feibai just laughed.
The guard bandit didn't say much, just waved his hand and said: "Now the court dog officials are fighting with us, so you came at the right time, our boss should take you in, but you also told your boss to restrain your temper. Hundreds of people, what's so arrogant? I only manage fifty people..."
"Yes, yes, there's nothing like being an errand with a big man, just a small errand can dump us for several streets..."
The bandit at the gate didn't hear the underlying meaning, and nodded with satisfaction, and said kindly: "There are three masters in the city now, you are lucky, it just happened that Master Liu was on duty today, and he will probably come to see you in person in a while. Just stand on the left side of the city gate and stay there."
Feibai also wanted to inquire about more news. Before they heard that Huaiyuan County was ruled by a bandit leader surnamed Yang, how come they have now become three heads?
But the gatekeeper obviously didn't want to say more, or Qi Haoran's attitude irritated him, so he waved his hand and returned to his post.
Feibai could only return to Qi Haoran's side, and whispered the news he got to him, saying, "Master, Huaiyuan County seems to have changed."
Qi Haoran said in a low voice: "According to the opportunity, if it is not right, everyone will retreat into the woods."
Everyone continued to spread the word one by one. After a quarter of an hour, although the team was still sluggish, everyone's back was secretly straightened, ready to rush out at any time. At such a tense moment, Feibai couldn't help but let out an "ah", surprised. 's eyes widened.
Liu Dahei also looked at the more than 200 people on the opposite side in surprise, and then met Qi Haoran's quiet eyes, he raised his eyebrows, the guard bandit was suspicious, and asked a little nervously: "Master Liu, you know the opposite side. That person?"
"I know, I know when I turn to ashes," Liu Dahei said, and cupped his hands at Qi Haoran: "Young Master Qi, stay safe, I haven't seen you for a long time, I don't know how you are doing now."
This was obviously a grudge reply, which made the guard bandit shrink his neck regretfully, knowing that he was not so warm to entertain people before.
Qi Haoran's face was pale, and he said, "I have a better life than Mr. Liu. Recently, someone Qi has been thinking about Mrs. Liu and Mr. Lin, but unfortunately, I was in a hurry and forgot the contact address."
Knowing that Qi Haoran had not defaulted on his debts, Liu Dahei's face became better, and then he was interested in looking at him, "Where does Mr. Qi come from? Why is he being bullied like this? Tell the big brother who did it. Yes, big brother helps you open the scoop."
"No, I like to do it myself. Master Liu really wants to help, so please help me find someone." The more Qi Haoran said, the more intelligent he felt, as if Liu Dahei was not so annoying anymore when he appeared here.
