Chapter 437: Showdown
Lin Jue didn't care about the yin and yang laughter of these people, and first briefly introduced the process of action. told me about the killing of Zuo Zongdao that night. Even though Lin Jue said it extremely briefly, Bao Meng and the others were still shocked when they listened. Thinking about the situation that night, I couldn't help but be even more in awe of this Fang military division. Of course, what Lin Jue said was that he waited for an opportunity to approach Zuo Zongdao that night, played a poor dagger, and killed Zuo Zongdao with a hidden blade, and did not say anything about firearms. Lin Jue didn't want Bao Meng to know his secret. At least for now.
"Master Bao Dazhai, everyone is in charge. That's how it happened. That night was indeed a bit dangerous, but we finally killed Zuo Zongdao without danger and controlled the entire cottage. Although half of my brother in Luoyan Valley was killed in the battle, the sacrifice was still worth it. ”
Bao Meng and the others were very relieved in their hearts, a total of 200 people were dispatched to Luoyan Valley, since half of the people died, that is to say, there were only more than 100 people in Luoyan Valley in the cottage at this moment. No wonder Shicai went from the sub-village to the main village, and he didn't see a few figures of soldiers and horses in the Wild Goose Valley. Rather, some troops are maintaining order. It's better for yourself. After a while, I started to do it, so I didn't have to do it.
"There are some final business to be concluded here. One of them is that the covenant I made before Luoyan Valley and Guizhai needs to be fulfilled. Previously, our covenant was that we would take Shirenshan Dazhai through joint action, and after success, the territory of Shirenshan Dazhai would be returned to Guizhai, and Guizhai would need to officially cede Luoyan Valley to us. and promised never to attack us. I don't know if the owner of Bao Dazhai remembers this article. ”
Bao Meng smiled: "Of course I remember." ”
Lin Jue nodded and said, "Okay, then, the second thing is about the part of the equipment we promised you." After the owner of Gao Dazhai and I returned to Luoyan Valley, we would send someone to escort the land. We'll do that. ”
Bao Meng smiled and nodded, "Go on." It feels like there's a third, a fourth, right? ”
Lin Jue said: "Yes, there is indeed a follow-up. Previously, our covenant did not have a distribution of captured personnel and materials. We only agreed to the transfer of the site, but there was no consultation on the distribution of the captured personnel and materials. In the past few days, we have made an inventory, and a total of 863 soldiers have been captured in the Shiren Mountain Cottage, as well as a total of 2,250 mountain people under the jurisdiction of the cottage. In terms of materials, there were 80,000 stones of grain and grass, 300 mules and horses, 320 pieces of leather armor, 1,100 swords, 230,000 taels of silver, and ...... jewels."
"Master Fang, you don't have to report them one by one, what the owner of this village wants to ask is, do you mean that you want these personnel and materials?" Bao Meng waved his hand to interrupt Lin Jue's words.
Lin Jue smiled: "Of course." Master Bao Dazhai, as I already said, we did not have an agreement on the distribution of these personnel and materials before, so it is an additional harvest. In the interest of fairness, we will only take half of it. Our two cottages are divided into two or five, what do you think? ”
Bao Meng glared at Lin Jue, and suddenly opened his mouth and laughed. A group of leaders also laughed out loud.
Lin Jue stood there, looked coldly at this group of people laughing wildly, and shouted in a deep voice: "What? Do you think my proposal is ridiculous? ”
Bao Meng laughed out of breath, waved his hand and said, "Master Fang, I'm really sorry, I suddenly remembered something." I heard a story about a fox and a tiger who went hunting, and they caught a sheep. As a result, the fox asks to divide the sheep equally with the tiger, and guess what? In the end, the tiger was so angry that even the fox ate it. If a sheep can't fill its belly, it's even better to add a fox. Hehehe, I'm laughing at this fox who doesn't measure himself, and actually bargains with a tiger, isn't this looking for death? ”
Gao Muqing stood up and shouted angrily, "What do you mean? ”
Ma Yun slapped the table and shouted: "Don't you still understand what my big village master means? Bite off more than one can chew. ”
Gao Muqingliu's eyebrows were upside down, and she was about to reprimand, Lin Jue reached out and patted her arm and said, "Don't be impatient, why lose your demeanor." Noisy doesn't solve the problem. ”
Gao Muqing held back his anger and sat down slowly. Bao Meng also waved his hand for Ma Yun to sit down.
Lin Jue said with a smile on his face: "I didn't expect the master of Bao Dazhai to tell stories, the story is really good, I have the opportunity to listen to the story of the master of Bao Dazhai." But don't forget, the owner of Bao Dazhai is really good, but you didn't say who is the tiger and who is the fox. If the owner of Bao Dazhai was the fox, he would not have thought this story was so ridiculous. ”
"Am I the fox?" Bao Meng pointed to his nose and said, "Are you the tiger?" Hahaha, as soon as you explain it like this, this story will make Lao Tzu laugh for another day. Hahaha. ”
Bao Meng burst out laughing again.
Lin Jue sighed, the smile on his face slowly converged, and suddenly asked Ruan Ping, who was sitting next to Bao Meng, "Lord Ruan, should you say something." You promised me personally, don't go back on your word now. ”
Ruan Ping had kept his head down since he sat down, and everything around him seemed to be as if he had nothing to do. Everyone thought he was sick, but they didn't pay much attention to it. But Lin Jue's questioning made everyone's eyes focus on him.
Ruan Ping slowly raised his head, struggling to prop up the table and bowed to Bao Meng, "Big brother, can I say a few words?" ”
Bao Meng frowned and said, "What does the fourth child want to say?" What did you promise them? ”
Ruan Ping said: "Big brother, this time I was able to successfully win the Shiren Mountain Village, in fact, it all relied on the power of Luoyan Valley. If it weren't for the master of Gaozhai and the military division of Fang, this matter would have failed completely, and it was likely to anger Zuo Zongdao and bring huge trouble to our Beishan Dazhai. The price and effort paid by the Fang military division and the master of Gaozhai are also a lot, and their subordinates feel that they are ...... It makes sense to give them some supplies or something. After all...... We can't treat them badly. ”
Bao Meng was stunned for a moment, frowned, and said, "Fourth, what's wrong with you?" Are you confused? What did you tell me before? ”
Of course, Ruan Ping knew the meaning of Bao Meng's words, what everyone had planned before was to destroy the Luoyan Valley Dazhai after the matter was completed, and this idea was put forward by Ruan Ping, and he personally told Bao Meng that Fang Junshi could not stay, and Luoyan Valley could not stay. Keeping the Wild Goose Valley is a huge trouble. And destroying Luoyan Valley can not only remove the threat of this vibrant cottage, but also put the blame for the demise of Shiren Mountain Village on them. It is said that the people of Luoyan Valley destroyed the Shiren Mountain Village, and the Beishan Village exterminated the black sheep in the Funiu Mountain. All the blame will be borne by Luoyan Valley, so as to avoid the rest of the cottages from making irresponsible remarks or even joint crusades. This is a plan to kill two birds with one stone and kill people with a knife, which is inspired by Zuo Zongdao. But at this moment, Ruan Ping is no longer Ruan Ping before his heartbeat. He knows what he's been through and what he's changed.
"Lord Dazhai, since we have made an alliance with Dazhai in Luoyan Valley, we can't break our promises. Naturally, the things that are laid down in the covenant must be observed, and the things that are not written in the covenant must be discussed. The materials and population here, it is reasonable for Luoyan Valley to want a batch. Big brother, they have promised me that they will never go against us, they just want a place to stand, let's ...... Why should we be more tolerant? It's good for us to be in league with them. After all, in this Barberry Mountain, we don't have many real friends in our cottage. Ruan Ping said softly.
"What?" Bao Mengqi's face turned pale, and he was gloomy like a dark cloud. "Fourth, I understand, you've changed your mind, haven't you? You're treating them like big brothers now, and you've been standing with them all the way, aren't you? You are a person from my Beishan Village, how can you turn your elbow out? ”
Ruan Ping shook his head and said, "Big brother...... Listen to me, I'm not elbowing out, I'm thinking about our Beishan Dazhai for the sake of ...... Big brother, for your sake. I...... I'm also speaking from the point of view, indeed...... It's true that some of our previous ideas didn't come true. Big brother, listen to me, this matter is good for us and harmless, big brother...... Brother is speaking from the heart, you ......"
"Shut up! Okay, you're a fourth, you're stupid. Are you dizzy? Talking for outsiders? Is it still good for us? There's a fart benefit. Ma Yun, the owner of the second village, interrupted sharply.
Director Qiang of Sanzhai also got up and shouted: "Fourth, don't think that you can talk nonsense if you have made some contributions, and it is not your turn to talk too much about the major affairs of the cottage." ”
Ruan Ping was bloodless, his body was shaky, he glanced at Lin Jue and Gao Muqing who were sneering, and snorted. explained again: "Big brother, second brother, third brother, if I, Ruan Ping, hadn't thought about the cottage, I would have taught me to destroy heaven and earth." Listen to me, and don't ...... Don't make things stiff, guys...... It's not good for everyone. Big brother, my brother didn't ask you for anything, but today my little brother begs you to ...... Think twice, or else...... Otherwise......"
"What's bullshit bad? What was said? Fourth, I think you are not lightly injured, and you have broken your brain. Don't stop me yet. Ma Yun shouted.
Lin Jue laughed and said, "Lord Ruan, you have done your best, it seems that your words will not work." Sit down, you're seriously wounded, but don't bother anymore. I'll talk to them again, maybe there will be room for negotiation. ”
Ruan Ping said in a trembling voice: "Master Fang, you ...... You don't want to ...... Don't ......"
Lin Jue waved his hand and interrupted: "Don't worry, aren't we still sitting here to discuss?" Don't worry. ”
Bao Meng frowned and pondered, he felt that Ruan Ping's attitude today was very unusual, giving people a strange feeling. Ruan Ping usually doesn't speak like this, he knew the original plan, but listening to what he said just now, he changed his mind. Could it be that something has changed? But even if something happened, why didn't he say it in the letter? Instead, he is saying these things now. But his words seemed to be very earnest, and he kept saying that it was for his own sake. What the hell is going on here?
Bao Meng was a little confused, but he didn't change his mind. Even if Ruan Ping is against it, one Ruan Ping is not enough to change his original plan. Although Ruan Ping is his own important subordinate, the future of the cottage is in his own hands, and it is impossible for others to interfere. Today, he is ready to fly, and his 200 soldiers and horses are outside the Justice Hall, ready to carry out the established plan at any time. And this righteous hall has been secretly walked around by himself just now, except for a dozen people from Luoyan Valley, there is no one else to hide. So, the whole thing doesn't have any concerns at all.
