Chapter 151: Anything Can Be Sold

(Thank you for the dream that has never been completed, the upset of the dick, and the reward of the Celestial Death, thank you for everyone's monthly pass.) In addition, the Book Friends of the Dead gave away one hundred and fifty chapters, and everyone who has an ordinary account can get it. )

The officers and men began to move forward slowly, approaching the castle step by step.

Li Jing stood on the city wall, looking at the approaching array under the city with some confusion. Are Feng Zhang and Wang Jin really crazy and do whatever they want? For most of the day, he dared to openly send troops to besiege Shamen Town?

The phalanx stopped a hundred paces below the city, presumably because they were worried about the archers in the city. A fully armored soldier walked towards the city with a red battle flag in his hand, Zhang Chengzong raised his bow and wanted to shoot, but Li Jing stretched out his hand to stop it. This man is obviously a messenger, and listen to what he has to say.

"Listen to the people in the city, we are the official army led by the Song envoy of Dengzhou Assassin Shi and the king of Dengzhou Beijiazhao, respectively, the Longshan Battalion, the Dengzhou Soldiers, the Dongmu Guard, the Dengzhou Water Division, and the Da Xie Yan Five Combined Soldiers and Horses, if you are interested, immediately open the city gate and surrender, if not, you will step on the castle and kill all the thieves here! Give you a stick of incense and think about it. ”

As soon as he shouted this, the people of the city were dumbfounded.

Li Jing was also stunned, how did he come not only the soldiers and horses of the Dengzhou Navy Division and Da Xie Yan, but also the Longshan Battalion, Dongmu Shouju and Dengzhou Zhizhou soldiers, and actually claimed that Song Wen and Li Wei were personally leading, what was going on? When did Song Wen and Li Wei get together with Wang Jin, and actually came to attack them? It's so weird, there's something wrong with it.

"Where are Song Envoy Jun and King Zhao? Come, and I will see them. Li Jing shouted loudly.

The man under the city was visibly stunned for a moment. Then he replied loudly: "I want to see Song Envoy Jun and King Zhao." You're out of town! ”

Li Jing thought about it carefully. Some feared that this was a trick of the enemy, so they did not dare to venture out of the city. However, if it is really Song Wen who came, then there will be some doubts about this matter. After thinking about it, he felt that he couldn't see whether Song Wen was really in the army from such a distance, but he simply wrote a text message, mentioned a few words in the letter that only Song Wen knew about what had been said between the two, and then shot down the city with an arrow. He believed that if Song Wen was really under the city. When you read this letter, things should be clear.

Sure enough, as soon as the letter was shot down, the messenger ran back and asked loudly, "May I ask if it is Li Jing and Li Zhenjun in the city?" ”

"Exactly down there." Li Jing replied loudly.

The messenger was a little puzzled, and then asked, "May I ask if the town of Salmon was attacked by pirates yesterday, and where are the pirates now?" ”

Li Jing said loudly: "Are you talking about more than a thousand pirates led by the one-eyed Jiao? ”

"Exactly."

"Hahaha!" Li Jing smiled, "If you are talking about him, then it is a pity that the one-eyed Jiao's subordinates have been killed by my Shamen town soldiers." You're a step too late. ”

The messenger ran back again, and a moment later stepped forward with Song Wen's generals and a team of servants. After a while, I finally determined what was going on. Li Jing immediately ordered the city gate to be opened to welcome Song Wen and others into the city, and Li Jing's generals personally greeted them at the city gate.

Song Wen and Li Wei arrived first, and after seeing Li Jing, they were amazed. Seeing the blood-stained black and red earth everywhere under the city, and the entire wall of the western city wall being torn down, you can imagine the fierceness of the battle last night. Asked about the attack of the pirates, Song Wenyou couldn't believe Li Jing's previous answer.

"The one-eyed Jiao was really killed by you, and his subordinates were also annihilated?"

Li Jing nodded: "That's right, the one-eyed Jiao led nine hundred pirates to attack yesterday, but fortunately, he found it in time and made an early defense." Gather all the men and women in the town to fight desperately with the pirates, fight fiercely all night, and finally kill all the pirates. The one-eyed Jiao also died in the chaos. ”

Regarding that battle, Li Jing did not exactly tell the truth. If 1,000 pirates and 1,800 people from the Wang family attacked and were defeated by them, it sounds too mysterious. Moreover, it will inevitably reveal the true strength and combat power of Shamen Town. Besides, Li Jing didn't want to reveal the hundreds of captives, lest he demand that they be handed over, these people were now his captives, and he had already decided that these people would be slaves on the island.

"How many casualties have you?"

Li Jing replied with a painful face: "A total of 600 people were killed in the battle, sixty percent of the newly recruited town soldiers were killed in the battle, and many people who helped the war were also killed. Envoy, in this battle, our department is seriously injured, and please make your army send those weapons as soon as possible, so as to increase the strength of our army. In addition, in terms of money and food, please also ask the envoy to help. ”

Song Wen didn't expect Li Jing's casualties to be so large, but after thinking about it, it was already a miracle that they had annihilated the nine-hundred-eyed pirates of the one-eyed Jiao with the lone army of Shamen Town yesterday. It's normal if the casualties are large, but if the casualties are not large, he still thinks it's strange. nodded immediately: "Okay, I will try my best to arrange this matter, and the treasury of Dengzhou is not rich, but I will try my best to pull it out if I can." ”

Li Wei asked with concern about the safety of her daughter and Yu Youniang, and Li Jing told Li Huier and their drums on the city tower yesterday to help the army. There was a small report on behalf of Li Xiao, and Li Wei wanted to take a few of them away, but he didn't expect that Li Xiao actually had a smile on his face after hearing it, and he felt like an old captain, so that Li Jing almost blocked there in one breath and couldn't mention it. Seeing Li Jing's depressed appearance, Li Xiao chuckled and patted Li Jing's shoulder and said, "It's hard for you." But after all, he insisted on not mentioning the intention of taking Li Hui'er and them.

Li Jing took Song Wen and the others to a corner outside the city, where hundreds of heads were piled up, and these heads were none other than the pirate subordinates of One-Eyed Jiao, a total of nine hundred. In addition, there were two hundred heads who were guarded by the Wang family, and Li Jing separated those and did not take them to see them at this time.

Seeing the pirate heads piled up like a mountain, no one doubted the fact that Li Jing had defeated the pirates. Song Wen smiled and praised Li Jing loudly. Annihilating a gang of thieves at sea at once, and capturing so many heads, is a great achievement. Not only Li Jing's great achievement, but also his Song Wen's great achievement, and even being able to directly report to the capital Chang'an is also a great achievement of Song Wei. At present, bandits are swarming everywhere, and the court is having a headache. At this time, the pirate One-Eyed Jiao actually dared to lead the crowd to attack the officers and soldiers' station. As a result, he was annihilated by the officers and soldiers. Beheading nine hundred levels. This is a great achievement, and it is also a great achievement of Dengzhou and Ziqing Town.

Song Wen ordered all the heads to be counted, and then packed up and prepared to be taken back to Dengzhou and sent to Ziqing Town for merit.

Looking at these heads, not only Song Wen and Li Xiao were happy, but even the generals of the other five military camps were also envious. So many heads, if they report to the imperial court, the reward will come down. At least you can be promoted to the third level.

Song Wen caressed three locks of long beard and looked at Li Jing, and couldn't help but pay more attention to Li Jing. Before, he only regarded Li Jing as a guy with some skills, but better luck with the nobles. But after this battle, Li Jing, who was originally just a small chess piece he sent to Da Xie Yan, couldn't help but magnify Xu Da at this time.

"Ji Yu annihilated the incoming pirates in one fell swoop this time, and played the prestige of my Dengzhou official army, which is really amazing. I will definitely report these heads to the Marshal's Mansion and ask for credit for you. As soon as these words came out, many generals on the side showed envious and jealous looks. Especially the two generals of Da Xie Qi and Dengzhou Water Division, Feng Xun and Wang Song. They originally thought that after such a long delay, Shamen Town must have been attacked and looted by the One-Eyed Jiao. I came to the island just to see the miserable fate of Li Jing and others, who would have expected that Li Jing not only did not die but jumped alive, and actually wiped out the one-eyed Jiao. Now they are constantly cursing the one-eyed Jiao in their hearts, which is useless. Especially Wang Song, he knew in his heart that this time it was not only the pirates, but also Wang Fu brought two hundred people to help. But now, why did he only hear that the pirates had been annihilated, but he didn't hear any news about Wang Fu and the others?

Li Jing saw the expressions of the generals in his eyes, smiled slightly, and said: "It is also a blessing to invite heaven to win this battle, not to mention that my Shamen Town soldiers were almost killed in battle, and hundreds of young and strong people were also involved. Now that even the fort city has been completely broken, and the makeshift camp outside the city has been burned, I don't know how to live behind the road. Therefore, in fact, I have a proposal for military merit. I'm not very old, and I'm already in the position of town general, because I have no experience to get where I am today. How dare I dare to be promoted again, and then promoted, with my ability, I am also roasted on the fire. ”

"Therefore, I want to sell these pirate heads. Each ordinary pirate has a head of fifty runs, a small pirate boss has a hundred runs, a big boss has five hundred runs, and the head of a one-eyed Jiao has a thousand runs. It can be sold in retail or in its entirety. You can also get a 10% discount on the whole purchase! It's not that I, Li Jing, am greedy for money and things, it's really because there are 600 dead in my town during the war, and more than 1,000 light and serious wounded, the castle of Shamen Town has been breached, the camp outside the city has been burned down, and all kinds of bereavement rewards and rewards are asking for money, I really have no choice. I just hope that everyone can take a hand and buy one or two heads, which can be regarded as supporting brothers. ”

When everyone saw Li Jing say this, they were all stunned for a moment. Song Wen pointed at Li Jing and sighed: "You, you, what nonsense!" ”

However, although Song Wen said this, he did not mean to stop the opposition, and it has always been common for military merits to be taken and resold in the army, basically as long as you are willing, even the chief officer will not interfere. Everyone really only said that Li Jing was now poor and had no way to sell his head, and they were unwilling to investigate whether this matter was true or false.

Song Wen was the first to speak: "I know that it is not easy for you, so give me the heads of the one-eyed Jiao and those leaders under him." I'll go back and pull out a thousand stones of rice for you. ”

Li Jing pretended to be embarrassed: "Song Envoy Jun, the one-eyed Jiao alone has to pay a thousand yuan, and he still has eighteen big leaders and seventy-two small leaders." If you give more, you see that these people under me don't even have the shack to live in, and I don't know how to live in the future. ”

"I'll give you another 3,000 pieces of linen, and I'll give you another 3,000 old military accounts that have been exchanged in the barracks. That's all, I'm not a local tyrant, and I don't have much more. ”

Li Jing hurriedly smiled and thanked him, and the ninety-one heads were worth nearly four thousand yuan, although it was less than the fifty yuan of each pirate head he offered, but the waste recycling was worth it.

With Song Wen taking the lead, others naturally did not intend to miss such an opportunity. In these years, although the promotion is relatively sudden, just spend some money, but it is not as good as a few pirate heads in front of you. The first level is limited, a total of nine hundred heads, Song Wen alone got the heads of all the pirate leaders, and there are eight hundred and nine left, and the officers of the five military camps got together to discuss and directly divide them, one hundred and fifty on one side of the five military camps, exactly eight hundred, and the remaining nine Li Jing directly gave them away for free.

Li Jing insisted on fifty yuan of eight hundred first-class people, and sold them for forty thousand yuan after the end, but everyone didn't have so much cash, so they said that they would exchange rice, wheat, millet, sorghum and other grains, as well as silk, silk, and linen. After saying that, a note was drafted, and everyone's deal was completed. Li Jing is not afraid that they will repay their debts, anyway, with Song Wen and Li Wei as guarantors, it is estimated that no one dares to rely on his money.

After the deal was negotiated, the expressions on everyone's faces looked much better. Taking advantage of everyone's various inventories of the heads they bought, Da Xie Yan's commander pulled Feng Xun aside and put aside Li Jing and made a request, that is, to take back the imprisoned guards of Feng Ming and the Feng family.

"Feng Ming and three hundred guards, as well as fifty soldiers, and more than two hundred of their family members, do you all want to take them back?" Li Jing said coldly. Feng Xun also said in a bad tone: "Today I am here to solve the problem, I came with sincerity, if General Li refuses to cooperate, you should know the consequences." ”

"The consequences, what the consequences?" Li Jing sneered, "How about the one-eyed Jiao?" Haven't I killed all the 900 people, but now they're being sold like dog meat? If you are really sincere, then I will give you a word, I am short of money now, Feng Ming and the three hundred guards, as well as fifty soldiers and more than two hundred family members, you can take them all, but you have to give me money, the value is calculated according to the price of the pirates just sold, fifty guan for one person, I will count you six hundred, you can take thirty thousand yuan or the equivalent of grain and silk cloth. When you send the money, when will I give you the people, or they will have to work for me for the rest of my life in Salmon Town. Don't intimidate me, I'm not afraid of nine hundred pirates, do you think I'm afraid of the two thousand people and horses of Da Xie Yan? ”

"You!" Feng Xun angrily pointed at Li Jing, but Li Jing turned around and left, leaving only a back for him, and there was no place to even get angry.

Li Jing directly found Wang Song, who came to command the troops of the Dengzhou Naval Division, and handed him three very beautiful wooden boxes.

"What is this?" Wang Song asked suspiciously.

"This is a gift for Wang Youyi, and he needs to open it personally. You bring the things for me, and he will naturally know the Tao when he opens it. Li Jing smiled slightly, and the smile was a little straightforward, which made Wang Song feel cold. (To be continued.) )
