After Li Zixiao returned to the Lin family's mansion with quartz, he happened to see Dong Zhuang walking out with a red face and a smile on his face, and he knew that he was very happy at this time.
"Dong Zhuang, what's the good news, look at your pleasure, come and report to me!" Li Zixiao saw Dong Zhuang's appearance, smiled and beckoned him to come over and asked.
Dong Zhuang actually walked towards him briskly the first time he saw Li Zixiao, and he still had a few account books in his hand.
"Big boss, we're going to make a fortune this time! You see, this is the statistical list after Wei Hong and Liu Chong's brothers assisted me just now to check the general property of Lin Jiabao. ”
Dong Zhuang walked up to Li Zixiao, handed Li Zixiao an account book in his hand, and said excitedly.
"Oh? Yes, let me see how rich this old man Lin is. At this time, Li Zixiao was very curious about how much he could gain from Lin Jiabao this time.
Li Zixiao took the account book handed over by Dong Zhuang, he didn't know if he didn't look at it, he was shocked when he saw it!
Even when Li Zixiao looked at the account books, he was shocked, and then he was excited, and said loudly: "My good girl, this Lin Jiabao is really a fat pig!" It's so rich, it's really worth it. ”
It's no wonder that Li Zixiao's mouth was crooked happily after seeing this statistical account book.
Lin Laocai is really a miser, just saying that the various grains hoarded in the Lin family's granary are more than 3,000 stones, and several granaries are piled up, which is estimated to make their Lin family hundreds of mouthfuls, and they can't eat it until they die.
In addition, Linjiabao also consists of 11 donkeys and mules, 12 pack horses and horses, 17 cattle, 9 pigs, more than 20 sheep, chickens and ducks, more than 50 taels of gold, and more than 2,000 taels of silver.
Even, Dong Zhuang and the others found nearly 100 weapons such as knives, guns, shields, etc., more than a dozen arrows and arrows, and several sets of worn leather armor in the warehouse of Linjiabao.
As for the mess of cotton, cloth, wine, iron, coal, etc., it has not yet had time to be counted.
At this time, the property that Dong Xiang had already counted had already made Li Zixiao so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.
Li Zixiao couldn't help but marvel in his heart at this time, this trip to attack Lin Jiabao was really worth it.
In this battle, his men suffered only more than 20 casualties, and the number of actual casualties was only 12, and the rest of the injuries were not particularly serious, and they could return to the team after recovering from their injuries.
And the real casualties are the people of the old department of the one-eyed dragon, after all, in the battle of attacking Zhuang yesterday and today, they were all at the forefront, with hundreds of casualties.
However, Li Zixiao is more concerned about his own casualties, and Li Zixiao is completely acceptable to the casualties of the old subordinates such as the one-eyed dragon.
However, Li Zixiao was not so ruthless, and when he first attacked Zhuang, he had already ordered Li Langzhong to try his best to treat those injured one-eyed dragon's old subordinates.
At the same time, in this battle, Li Zixiao and the others also captured more than 40 people from the Lin family, more than 30 members of the Lin family, and more than 20 slaves from the maid family.
Getting so much food and wealth at once made his strength skyrocket several times, and he no longer has to worry about having no food to survive the winter this winter
With money and food, he can recruit more homeless, and as long as these homeless people are trained well, his men can grow again, at least in the area of Guide Province, he is now a large number of poles.
At least he doesn't have to worry about it in the future, when he encounters other poles, he is afraid of being swallowed by others, for him, what he has gained in this way has finally given him a foothold in this troubled world, of course, he is very happy.
Now that he has such a large amount of money and grain in his hands, Li Zixiao is not stingy, and immediately ordered the men to slaughter two sheep, kill another pig, and stew them in a big pot.
He also let the cooks of the Lin family steam out a lot of steamed buns, and let go of these subordinates, who were already the subordinates of the old one-eyed dragon, to eat a full meal, which can be regarded as fulfilling the promise of rewarding them.
After discussing with his subordinates, Li Zixiao decided to stay in this Linjiabao for the time being, after all, they had too many materials seized in Linjiabao this time, and they would not be able to transport them back to the cottage for a while.
For Li Zixiao's decision, some of his subordinates supported and opposed, Zhou Dazhu and Dong Zhuang agreed with Li Zixiao's proposal, but Wei Hong and Liu Zhong did not agree with it.
The two of them thought that Lin Jiabao was not a place to stay for a long time, after all, they made such a big move here, first fought the big pole one-eyed dragon, and then beat Lin Jiabao, and it was impossible to make people not know it.
Even if Linjiabao is located in a remote area, but the surrounding area is not uninhabited, I believe that soon the news that Linjiabao was captured by the pole will spread.
What's more, Linjiabao is located in the middle of nowhere, it is a dead place, there is only one way out in the south, as long as the village gate is blocked, it will be considered as cutting off their back road.
Once the enemy is strong, or a large number of officers and soldiers come to surround Linjiabao, they can only defend in Linjiabao, and there is no way to retreat.
Therefore, Wei Hong and Liu Chong both believe that this kind of place is by no means a place to stay for a long time, and Li Zixiao also feels very reasonable after hearing this.
However, at this time, Dong Zhuang also came out and said that this time they conquered Linjiabao and seized so much money, grain and materials, it was impossible to transport them back to the cottage in a day or two with the donkeys, horses, and carts they had in their hands.
"Okay, let's do it, Dong Zuo is responsible for deploying all the transport vehicles we have now, and start packing all the money, food, and materials in Linjiabao, and transport them back to our cottage in batches.
Each convoy will be escorted by a team, and starting tomorrow, we will try to transport all the captured supplies back to the cottage within two days.
Let's leave Lin Jiabao and don't stay here any longer, by the way, Dong Zhuang, you remember to take out some of the money and grain we seized and distribute it to Qi Wei's people and the subordinates of the One-Eyed Dragon's old department.
This is the part that we agreed with Qi Wei before we attacked Zhuangzi, and promised to give it to the subordinates of the old division of the One-Eyed Dragon, and we are true to our words. ”
In the end, Li Zixiao made such a decision, at present, it is indeed impossible for them to evacuate Lin Jiabao immediately, two days is short enough, even if the government knows the news, it is too late to come over to encircle and suppress them.
At this time, Wei Hong said to Li Zixiao again: "Big boss, you must have forgotten one thing."
This time, we took out the one-eyed dragon's pole and wiped out all of his men, as far as we know, the one-eyed dragon's old camp is on a beam dozens of miles away, and he has been operating there for many years.
I'm afraid that there is a lot of money and food accumulated in the cottage, and now there are probably not many people left in their cottage, and the news that the one-eyed dragon was killed by us at this time must not have been transmitted back.
Let's take people to capture the one-eyed dragon's cottage at this time, and it is estimated that we can also seize a lot of money and food from the one-eyed dragon's cottage, so now Wei Hong is asking for battle and leading his team to take down the one-eyed dragon's cottage for the big boss. ”
"The big boss, Liu Zhong is willing to lead his men and horses to capture the camp of the one-eyed dragon."
As soon as Liu Chong heard what Wei Hong said, he immediately felt regretful, he had thought of it a long time ago, but he didn't have time to speak, but he still wanted to compete for this mission.
"Big boss, let me go." Zhou Dazhu couldn't help it, and stood up to ask for battle.
"Brother Liu Chong, Brother Dazhu, do you also want to snatch this mission with your brother? You're too inauthentic, aren't you? This is the first task I came up with. ”、
Wei Hong looked at Liu Chong and Zhou Dazhu unhappily, and said very dissatisfied.
"Haha, Wei Hong, I've been eyeing this mission for a long time, I was going to tell the big boss, but I didn't expect you to be the first to get there, and I like this mission too!"
"Forget it, what's the use of the three of us arguing, in the end, we have to listen to our masters, let's see which of the three of us goes, then who goes."
Zhou Dazhu said with a smile, making Liu Chong and Wei Hong nod, thinking that what they said was right, they still had to see Li Zixiao's decision in the end.
After listening to Wei Hong's words, Li Zixiao also patted his head and said with a smile: "Look at my memory, how can I forget this stubble?"
The one-eyed dragon has been killed by us, and his subordinates are all in our hands, it is estimated that there must be few people in his nest at this time, and now is the best time to seize the one-eyed dragon cottage.
Brother Wei Hong is right, it is better to go to the stockade of the one-eyed dragon. Okay, this matter is settled, let's rest here tonight.
Tomorrow at dawn, Wei Hong will personally lead people to take down the one-eyed dragon's cottage for Lao Tzu, tonight you will all relax and relax, eat well, sleep well, and you will be more energetic in the battle tomorrow.
Don't worry, this has just laid down Lin Jiabao, you have also worked hard, have a good rest tonight, and it is not too late to leave tomorrow! ”
Li Zixiao smiled and raised his hand to stop Wei Hong's words to fight for himself, and directly appointed him to lead the team tomorrow, which can be regarded as reassuring him.
"Yes, big boss, you just wait, I will definitely take down the one-eyed dragon's cottage." When Wei Hong heard this, he happily immediately got up to receive the order, and followed Li Zixiao and his party out.
At this time, the sun was gradually setting in the west, and they had an afternoon of attacking the world of Linjiabao, and the days were shorter in winter, and the sky had become dark at this time.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, Lang Zhong, where is Lang Zhong?" As soon as Li Zixiao came out, he happened to see Qi Wei and Luo Chao and his party coming in.
And Luo Chao, who was favored by Li Zixiao, was running over with a middle-aged woman in his arms at this time, shouting.
"What are you screaming about, where are the sick people, send them here."
At this time, it happened that the wounded soldier rescue point opened by Li Langzhong was in the Lin family's compound, and when he heard Luo Chao's eager shout, Li Langzhong touched his beard and said with a big grin.
Luo Chao didn't care about Li Zixiao and the others at this time, and directly hugged his mother and ran to the place where Li Langzhong was, while Qi Wei took Li Tianba and Lu Wen and walked towards Li Zixiao.
Li Zixiao had already instructed Dong Zhuang to clean up the horse pen in Linjiabao and place the war horses of Qi Wei and others, and Qi Wei and these people would not be cavalry, and they regarded their war horses as more important than themselves.
They were stunned to personally arrange their war horses before they came over, and at this time, they came to see Li Zixiao after they had placed their war horses in the stable.
Coincidentally, at this time, Luo Chao's mother, because the carriage was too bumpy when she fled just now, made her old illness relapse and her life was in danger, no wonder Luo Chao rushed in to find Lang Zhong in a hurry!
"Huh? Not a wounded soldier? ”
Luo Chao carried his mother to the wounded soldier rescue point in Li Langzhong, and at first glance it turned out that it was not a wounded soldier, but a woman with a fever, a violent cough, and difficulty breathing.
Li Langzhong looked at Luo Chao and said, "Put the patient down first, I'll check the pulse and check the symptoms." ”
On the other side, Li Zixiao also led a group of subordinates to welcome Qi Wei's arrival, and as soon as he saw Li Zixiao, he said politely: "Brother Qi, I have been here for a long time, you can be counted as coming." ”
"I'm really sorry, let Li Dangjia and all the heroes wait for a long time, Qi Wei apologizes!" The atmosphere of the meeting between the two sides was still very harmonious.
"It just so happens that I have already asked my men to stew a big pot of meat, steam steamed steamed buns, and even get a lot of old and good wine from the Lin family's wine cellar, we must get drunk tonight!" Let the brothers also eat and drink well. ”
"Haha, it's still Li Dangjia's thoughtfulness. Okay, let's not get drunk tonight. Qi Wei replied very proudly.
"Brother Qi, the one who was intercepted by you just now? The battle between you and him outside the city just now, brother, I saw it with my own eyes, it was really an eye-opener for Li! ”
Li Zixiao looked at Luo Chao, who was in a hurry over there, and said to Qi Wei.
"Well, that brother's name is Luo Chao. I don't know each other either.,It's a bold man.。
Speaking of which, it is still your old opponent, the reason why Lin Jiabao was able to resist the attack of the three-hundred-man One-Eyed Dragon yesterday was mainly because he was commanding and defending the city.
However, after all, he was his master before, and you should not blame him, he is now your prisoner.
Because his mother is critically ill at this time, he is in a hurry! I didn't come to meet Li Dangjia for the first time, don't be surprised by Li Dangjia! Qi Wei was worried that Li Zixiao would be hostile to Luo Chao, so he explained it with a smile.
Li Zixiao hurriedly waved his hand and said: "It's okay, I can understand, I also appreciate the filial piety of this Luo Chao brother, taking care of his mother is the most important thing, Brother Qi will introduce him to his brother later." ”
"No problem."
"By the way, Brother Qi Wei, as we agreed before, after attacking the village, you will get five hundred stone of grain and three hundred taels of silver, I have asked my subordinates to sort it out with you, and you will send someone to count it later, and accept it!"
"Okay, no problem, Li Dangjia keeps his promises, he keeps his word, and Qi admires it. Let's eat and drink first, I'm going to get you drunk tonight." ”
"Haha, I'm not good at drinking, but my subordinates can drink, I can't drink you, don't you still have them!"
When Qi Wei heard Li Zixiao say this, he nodded with satisfaction, and said that Li Zixiao's fulfillment of the previous promise between the two of them counted, which made him have a better impression of Li Zixiao.
Moreover, Qi Wei was very interested and did not ask Li Zixiao, how much grain they seized from Lin Jiabao this time, since the two of them must have agreed on what should be given to them before, he would not ask for more.
