Chapter 1174: Enlightenment
Only people who have money and leisure will come to visit the lake, and many ordinary people are working in the fields in the scorching heat, or working as coolies in the canal wharf to make a living, and today's canal wharf is extremely lively.
Early in the morning, hundreds of cavalry rushed out of Xuzhou City to the canal wharf, and the sharp-eyed ones immediately recognized that it was the officers and soldiers who clashed with the Jiaolong Gang and Shahu Mountain.
As for how to end up in this fate, there are different opinions, but they can't leave this foreign dragon crossing the river.
Lao Jiu led his troops out of the city to the canal, not to show off his martial arts, but to support the Octopus Chamber of Commerce, but to put it bluntly, it can be regarded as showing off his martial arts.
Octopus's grain ship is unloading, Chang Yu has ordered the grain to be stockpiled in the city nearby, so the Chamber of Commerce is busy in the morning, but nearly hundreds of ships are busy at a time, and the Cao Gang only cares about loading and unloading, which is another charge.
But at this time, there was an unexpected scene, nearly 200 Jiaolong gang members rampaging in the nearby waters, suddenly spontaneously came to help Octopus unload.
This is a bit informative, and the docks are gossiping about it for a while, but even a fool can see the way, and his arm never breaks his thigh in the end!
In the tea shed next to the wharf, Lao Jiu was half-lying and crossed his legs on the tea table, and the Jiaolong Gang advocated Cheng Gui with a shy face and half-bowed his waist: "General, I am waiting for you to collide with you, this is a little bit of the brother's heart to accompany you" said and handed over a package.
Lao Jiu glanced at it: "Have eyes but no beads?" Lao Tzu almost didn't engrave the words officers and soldiers on his face, and even the officers and soldiers dared to shout and shout to kill, isn't this a rebellion? β
"Oh, don't you dare, don't dare, we just rely on water to beg for food, and we don't dare to rebel, otherwise how can General Gao allow us to eat this mouthful." Zhang Chenggui hurriedly said.
"Don't fucking use Gao Jie to suppress Lao Tzu, Gao Jie will also play a trick in front of you, it's not good to be here with Lao Tzu!" Lao Jiu snorted, and Zhang Chenggui was too frightened to speak.
"What's in your package?" Lao Jiu asked again.
"I prepared some wine money for all the military masters," Zhang Chenggui said and hurriedly handed over the package, Lao Jiu rolled his eyes: "Don't you still know who Lao Tzu is?" β
"I know, I know, you are the ninth general of the Black Wolf Battalion of Dongchangwei, that is the fierce general who kills thieves and kills Tartars" Zhang Chenggui stretched out his thumb as he spoke, Lao Jiu enjoyed it very much, but then shouted: "I know that Lao Tzu is the guard of Dongchang, and I even bribed, are you trying to harm Lao Tzu, I don't know that Dongchang is more ruthless in investigating corruption and anti-corruption."
"This, this...... I really don't know if it's small," Zhang Chenggui didn't know if what Lao Jiu said was true or false, and he didn't know what to do with a sad face for a while.
Lao Jiu also calculated his grievances in the past few days, looked at the Jiaolong gang who were really busy unloading the goods on the dock, and sighed: "Your brothers are also tired on this hot day, I have received this silver, and I will take it to buy a bowl of wine and a watermelon to drink for my brothers to reduce the heat."
"This ......" Zhang Chenggui was about to say something, but Lao Jiu was glared at, and hurriedly thanked him: "The Nine Generals' great kindness and great virtue Jiaolong Gang will be grateful for a lifetime......"
"Don't pretend to be honest here in Lao Tzu, it's understandable that you live on water, but if you have to leave a line in everything, it's too deceitful and too much, how is it different from those thieves?" Lao Jiu rolled his eyes and scolded, Zhang Chenggui bowed his hands, and the appearance of Yuan Santie's tragic death appeared in his mind, and he suddenly shuddered: "General Jiu's words must be remembered and understood." β
Entrenched in the Xuzhou section of the canal, the leader of the Jiaolong Gang, who has always been domineering, nodded to this military attache in the tea shed, and naturally became the talk of everyone on the dock, and his words and expressions were mostly ridiculed and sarcastic, but he was also full of curiosity about the military attachΓ©, after all, the backstage of the Jiaolong Gang was Gao Jie, the chief soldier of Xuzhou, which is not a secret.
Gao Jie's recklessness and arrogance are well known, it is said that the imperial court wants to give him a few points, but this military attache can make the people he covers obedient, and he does not see Gao Jie show his face to protect him.
It seems that the gold content of Octopus, the golden sign of the imperial businessman, is really not small, and such a big snake can't afford to provoke it!
When it was almost noon, the dock suddenly became agitated, Lao Jiu rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked around, trying to find someone to ask what was wrong, and some of his subordinates approached: "Brother Jiu, soldiers and horses are coming from the north, it seems that Gao Jie is back."
Oh, Lao Jiu turned over, jumped on the table, looked north, and saw thousands of cavalry running slowly on the bank of the canal a few miles away, and couldn't help frowning: "Don't go slowly, beckoning brothers to gather."
The subordinate looked at Lao Jiu with a solemn face: "Brother Jiu, is it possible that Gao Jie still dares to do something?" βγ
"But just in case, Gao Jie's temper is hot, if he hears that we slaughtered his dog and cut off his wealth, he will inevitably become angry." Lao Jiu said and smiled: "Just do it, our black wolf camp is afraid of him begging!" β
Timid in the middle of home? For Gao Jie, it doesn't exist at all, and seeing Xuzhou City in sight, I was excited in my heart, I, Uncle Gao is back!
Thinking about it in the past few months, it was like a dream, first by the court and the little eunuch coaxed and deceived and scared the king of Qin, and he wanted to make a show, but when he met the little eunuch in the west of Texas, he was forced to go west and then south, and attacked the city and plundered the land in the rear of the thief army, taking the opportunity to regain the lost ground, and then stepped on the stinky shit...... Li Zicheng was unexpectedly defeated by the little eunuch and fled west, so he and Liang Liu chased Li Zicheng all the way and grabbed a lot of fat, and before he had time to enjoy the fruits of victory, he was fished to Gyeonggi to help, and led 3,000 fine horses to the capital non-stop, and was scared half to death by blackmail and intimidation.
It wasn't until the little eunuch in Jinan gave him a thorough understanding that Gao Jie felt that this trip was not in vain!
All the hardship, unwillingness, humiliation, and fear were worth it at that moment.
Now is a troubled era, and the heroes are rising together, and it is an era of big heroes and heroes, but from Gao Jie's point of view, those tide makers are destined to be floating clouds, and they will eventually be smashed by the little eunuch with a stick.
The reason is simple, but it is sufficient.
was able to defeat Li Zicheng's thief army twice in a short period of time and let him flee by hundreds of thousands, and beat him twice with his hands Dolgon to make his nose blue and his face swollen, Gao Jie, who has been in the army for more than ten years, has never seen anyone with such a means!
Therefore, Gao Jie was afraid of Chang Yu and was on guard, especially when he knew that Chang Yu was going to kill Liu Zeqing, he was under great psychological pressure, and he was on the verge of collapse but didn't know how to make a choice, until the little eunuch extended an olive branch to him, and at that moment he almost knelt down, but he also let go of all the pressure and made a decision, so get on his thief ship, life and death together.
People are in good spirits on happy occasions, Gao Jie repaired in Jinan for a few days and Liu Zeqing, Liu Liangzuo sent troops south, all three of them were cavalry, and they should have walked in front of Chang Yu, but Chang Yu later changed to the waterway and left the three behind.
And Gao Jie went home anxiously, urging his subordinates all the way to hurry up and soon left the two Lius behind, and the second Liu had no doubts about this, but the front was his territory, and he was in a hurry to go back to shoot the little eunuch's fart, and then he ate and drank for nothing for several days in Jinan, and he was ready to receive it.
As early as when the three of them went south from the capital, they had sent someone to send an order to the main force in Shanxi to cross the Yellow River and go south to Xuzhou round, so they didn't have to worry about it for the time being, they just wanted to wait in Xuzhou as soon as possible.
In the scorching summer, Gao Jie is not a dusty servant all the way, but the wind and the sun are sweating like rain, it is unspeakably miserable, although it is a scorching heat, but Xuzhou City is close at hand, and he does not care about so much, so he ordered the soldiers and horses to stare at the scorching sun, go home early, and be comfortable early.
When there were still twenty miles away from Xuzhou, Hu Maozhen had come to greet him, not that he could pinch and calculate, but that Chang Yu had heard that Gao Jie had recently returned to Xuzhou in the past two days, so he sent people to pay close attention early in the morning, and immediately went to greet him after getting the news.
After a "general hard work", there was no time to be polite, Hu Maozhen first told Chang Yu about being in the city, which was expected by Gao Jie, and laughed: "You can take care of Lao Tzu, don't snub him."
"How dare you be humble, it's like offering him to your ancestors" Hu Maozhen smiled bitterly: "But that eunuch doesn't have any shelf, and it's easy to get along with."
"Easy to get along with?" Gao Jie rolled his eyes: "That's because you haven't seen him not get along well, this eunuch can kill people with a smile, and he is extremely insidious, he will tell you that this brother is good, and he can stab you in his hand!" β
"Not really!" Hu Maozhen slapped his thigh, and said that the black wolf camp slaughtered Yuan Santie and a gang of thieves in Shahu Mountain in front of him: "That's really yin, a serious person said that he wanted to talk about peace, and when he turned his head, he turned his face, and if you say kill, you will kill it, and you can find an excuse to find a similar one, why did he pull me...... Are they fooling the ghosts, or do they look at us like fools?"
Gao Jie's face was gloomy when he heard this, he looked up at the white clouds in the sky and sighed for a long time: "If he kills, he doesn't bother to make excuses, although this excuse is rough, it still gives me enough face!" Said and sighed: "Exquisite! From now on, you have to offer to him as you did to your ancestors."
Hu Maozhen frowned, looking at Gao Jie with a surprised expression, this is not the Gao Jie he is familiar with.
People killed his dog's legs, and he also said that people are exquisite.
If this was in charge of you in the past, you would have turned your face a long time ago!
Gao Jie ignored Hu Maozhen's surprise: "Has my wife seen the little eunuch, what do you say?" β
"Madame saw her last night, and said that this son is extraordinary, easy to approach, not far away." Hu Maozhen hurriedly said.
Gao Jie raised his head and laughed: "You can't look down on Lao Tzu's vision, you should believe Madame's vision, this little eunuch will be a big backer in the future, but you have to hold it firmly" said and asked: "What does Sun Shoufa say?"
Sun Shoufa said: "This little eunuch is extremely vicious but compassionate, his methods are insidious but he is upright, and he says nothing p! β
Gao Jie stroked his palms and praised: "Sun Shoufa looks at people really accurately!" To put it bluntly, this little eunuch is too scheming, and no one can control his pulse, but as long as he listens to him, he will have meat to eat."
"My lord, the matter of Yuan Santie ......" Hu Maozhen felt that Gao Jie in front of him was very unfamiliar.
"Fuck Yuan Santie Yuan Sitie, damn it, damn it" Gao Jie took a sip: "By the way, go back and ask Zhang Chenggui to send some silver to the black wolf camp, the little eunuch's subordinates are not vegetarians and they love to hold grudges, Lao Tzu has to work with them when he turns around, don't take revenge on Lao Tzu and stumble on Lao Tzu."
"Oh, that's not good" Hu Maozhen was shocked: "I have beaten Zhang Chenggui in my humble position, but he was scolded for not giving away the silver!" β
"Really?" Gao Jie was stunned, and then laughed: "Then Lao Tzu is relieved!" Saying that, he patted the horse and galloped: "Back to the city, Lao Tzu wants to kill me to take my baby son."
Hu Maozhen was confused, rubbing his head vigorously, Gao Jie used to be as brave and resourceless as himself, how could he go out and walk around and feel that there was a gap between the two, was he stupid again, or did he suddenly open something.
