Ma Zhong does not consider himself an angel of peace, nor is he a pure virgin. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

He is neither willing to dissolve the hatred of those mountain barbarians, nor is he willing to sacrifice the small self to achieve the big self.

Ma Zhong stared at Zhang Tang coldly, with a hint of anger, "Zhang Tang, I'm just a few people, you let me appease the mountain barbarians?!" ”

Zhang Tang coughed lightly, his face unchanged, "This is what everyone means." Besides, since Sima is here in our Wumeng Lieutenant Battalion, his subordinates can't be without some strength. We have to listen to Sun Jiangdong's military orders, but it is also a fact that we are short of money and food. The battalion tightened its belts and could only provide military rations for two hundred people......"

Zhang Tang ignored Ma Zhong's increasingly ugly face and continued.

"Since Jinouzhai has collapsed, the surrounding rebellion cannot be kept. It just so happened that I asked them to take those mountain barbarian captives and choose as much as they wanted. ”

Zhang Tang at least didn't pit Ma Zhong, and there was really not much military food in the camp.

It's interesting to be able to take out 200 military rations.

If it weren't for the existence of small carts, which could greatly increase the loading capacity of the Wandering Army, I am afraid that even if they wanted to expand their army, they would not be able to provide enough supplies.

Zhang Tang saw that Ma Zhong was silent all the time, and he also felt a little bored.

"Sima think about it again, Sima Dacai, we all believe in Sima."

hurriedly put down this sentence, and Zhang Tang immediately pulled Cen Wolf to leave.

As soon as he saw them go out, Wang Li immediately said anxiously, "My lord! They're going to borrow a knife to kill someone! We don't have any conflict with the mountain barbarians, but those mountain barbarians don't know! ”

Ding Feng put his finger to his lips to make a movement, and Wang Li quickly shut up.

I saw the door creak, and the wolf turned around.

"Marquis Cen Jun?" Ma Zhong asked in a deep voice.

Cen Wolf was not verbose, looked at Ma Zhong and said directly, "Sima, there is a sentence that Zhang Tang said is right, since you have come to our Wumeng Captain's Battalion, your subordinates can't be without strength." If you do this, don't say anything else, and I'll obey you. ”

Cen Wolf left this headless sentence and left.

Ma Zhong couldn't help frowning.

Wang said angrily, "My lord, how is this good? ”

Ma Zhong lowered his head and thought for a while, then let out a long breath, "Let me think twice." ”

……

Ma Zhong couldn't make up his mind, Wang Li panicked, he quickly used his advantages and went around to inquire about information.

Ding Feng had some ideas, and just as he was about to talk to Ma Zhong, there were three or four wrestlers challenging in front of the door.

"It's time to buy and sell."

Ding Feng laughed, didn't bother to pay attention to these troubles, and strode back to the room to get his belongings.

Ma Zhong was moved in his heart, came to the west wing of the courtyard, and knocked lightly on the door.

"Who?" A cold shout came from inside.

Ma Zhong said softly, "It's me, Ma Zhong." ”

There was a commotion from inside, and the door opened a crack, revealing a white cheek. Her face is not very beautiful, and her body is dry and a little stubborn.

Zhu Ning looked at Ma Zhong with a vigilant gaze, pursed his lips, and said, "It's not time to cook yet." ”

After she moved into this yard, she took over from Wang Li and took the initiative to take on the cooking.

She has a lot of taste, but she cooks badly.

Fortunately, no matter who does it, they also put all kinds of messy food in the pot to cook, and everyone can tolerate it for a while.

"I have something I want to ask you about." Ma Zhong's vigilance against Zhu Ning was a little awkward, but he was not so arrogant.

Zhu Ning looked at Ma Zhong suspiciously for a while, then opened the door and walked in silently.

Ma Zhong entered the room and looked left and right, there were no special furnishings in it, only a few seats, and a thin quilt made of coarse linen. Looking at the bulging appearance, you know that it is filled with sun-dried leaves.

The mat made of bamboo strips is clean, and the small ones made of bamboo shells are bright.

Ma Zhong sat down unceremoniously, Zhu Ning's face was cold, but he sat down with Ma Zhong generously.

Ma Zhong thought for a while and asked softly, "When Jin Ouzhai and Captain Wu Meng's battalion fought, there were endless drums and horns in the city, is there such a thing?" ”

Zhu Ning's face was as usual, and her voice was much smoother than a few days ago, "Yes." ”

"After the lord of Jinou Village left the city, the command of the city was as usual, and some people cut off the return route of the lord of Jinou Village and forced him to fight to the death. Is there such a thing? ”

Zhu Ning tilted his head and thought for a while, "Yes." ”

"Before his death, the lord of Jinou Village once scolded 'cheap maid', and it was a woman who wanted to come to guard the city." Ma Zhong's eyes were still gentle, looking at Zhu Ning, and said, "It should be you." ”

Zhu Ning had a surprised expression on his face, and his big eyes full of aura seemed to have heard some myth, and he was a little incredulous.

"These days, you hide in your room except cooking, except for fear that we will defile you. I'm afraid I'm also worried that someone else will recognize you and report you in exchange for a reward. ”

Zhu Ning was silent, and his cold expression made people dare not blaspheme.

"You are very thoughtful, you are decisive, and you are not inferior in any way. There are not many strange women like you who want to come to the world, and I happen to know one. ”

Ma Zhong paused, looked at Zhu Ning and continued, "When Sun Jiangdong broke Anhui City, and Ganning Lumeng fought for merit, there was a girl who led more than 1,000 people out of the camp, and she didn't know where she was, and that girl was ......"

"It's you, too."

Seeing that Zhu Ning had no reaction, Ma Zhong smiled faintly and continued to talk to himself.

"You are well educated, and you can have so much prestige in Wancheng, if my expectations are good, you should be the daughter of Zhu Guang, the Taishou of Lujiang in Wancheng. After you led people to rush out, you did the opposite, managed to cross the river, and reached the tiger forest to the south of the Yangtze River. ”

"Over the years, Zhu Guang has been secretly luring Poyang thieves as internal responses, and a large number of blank edicts from the imperial court have been distributed. So you thought of looking for these people to help you get back to Jiangbei. ”

"However, you don't go to Poyang Thief to be a guest, what are you doing in this Jinou Village?"

Zhu Ning's expression was shocked, and the knuckles of his index finger were pinched white by his thumb. She looked at him carefully as if she had reacquainted Ma Zhong with him.

The man's lips were thin, his eyebrows were thin, and his delicate cheeks were full of emotion. A long scar slanted between the right eyebrow and toward the left cheek, adding a bit of peculiar charm.

Zhu Ning's eyelids drooped, but he was still silent.

Ma Zhong didn't urge, but still said gently, "The last time I met Zhonglang General Xu Sheng, he specially left himself to go to the Tiger Forest in order to find you. His Hundred Horsemen is a nice fellow, and his name is Hou Qing......"

Ma Zhong chattered, whispering all kinds of things about his encounter with Hou Qing.

talked about Hou Qing coming out of the wind alone, and said that Hou Qing stepped on blood to move closer to himself again and again.

Speaking of Hou Qing's madness, he began to massacre women and children.

Speaking of Hou Qing's tired overnight stay in the wilderness, he was stabbed to death by Bailichuan with his own weapon.

and he talked about killing his horse and burying him.

Ma Zhong's voice became more and more stable, and some of the tremors at the beginning were also calm.

"So, Hou Qing, a good man, didn't end well in the end. Bailichuan stabbed him to death, I actually don't hate Bailichuan, because Bailichuan wants to protect women and children and avenge them. Hou Qing is guarding me, so I am also determined to kill Meng Guo and avenge Hou Qing......"

Ma Zhong said calmly and talked about this time again. He glanced up at Zhu Ning and said softly, "This time Shanyue is an independent camp, why did Miss Zhu teach me?"
