Chapter 225

Xu land.

"We've already delivered the goods."

There is no human habitation on the desolate land. In front of Qijuetang and others, there is a small village that has just experienced the trauma of war, and the surrounding fields look very barren.

Tang Qi glanced at the person who received the goods. Although he was wearing the clothes of ordinary villagers, he couldn't hide his hostility. It seemed that he was either a gangster who had been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, or a first-class dead man.

"Receive!"

The person opposite didn't seem very happy, his face was ugly, and he didn't show any humility at all, he seemed very tough.

Several people checked the goods roughly, but did not count them carefully, so they pulled the carriage and prepared to leave.

"This brother, money?"

Tang Qi reminded, and the other party took out a money bag from his sleeve and threw it over.

Tang Qi weighed it and found that the weight was about the same, so he didn't bother anymore.

Although there were twists and turns in this mission, it was finally completed. For a while, the people in Qijuetang relaxed a lot.

The loss of troops requires a large sum of money to comfort their families, and many of them have to be drawn from the rewards of this mission, but these people don't care.

"Boss, anyway, we have traveled a hundred or two miles, we might as well go to the city ahead to rest."

Tang Qi made a face and reprimanded lightly.

"Do you want to go to the city to rest?"

The disciples of Qijuetang looked resentful, of course they didn't want to rest their feet.If you want to rest, you don't have to go to the city for a few miles to rest?

Tang Qi looked at the group of subordinates, and waved his hand impatiently.

"Get out, get out."

All the disciples of Qijuetang knew Tang Qi's temper, and knew that although he was impatient at the moment, they all agreed.For a moment, there was an expression on their faces that men could understand.

"Dele, hall master, we must go and return quickly."

"Get out, you're fast."

Although the task is over, Tang Qi's heart is full of melancholy.The attack was still in front of his eyes, and he was always restless.

Tang Qi waited for a long time near the village, and he didn't feel at ease until Wei Zhuang appeared.

"Where are the people from Qijuetang?"

Seeing Tang Qi sitting alone under a big tree, Wei Zhuang couldn't help asking.

"Go to the city to have fun."

There was a trace of surprise on Wei Zhuang's face, and Tang Qi couldn't help showing a trace of strangeness when he saw it.

"Boss Wei, you won't"

Before Tang Qi finished speaking, he felt a powerful murderous aura from Wei Zhuang, and immediately closed his mouth resentfully.

"I am devoted to cultivation, and the matter of men and women is nothing more than disturbing people's hearts, and it is not worth mentioning."

Wei Zhuang said indifferently, as if it was no big deal at all.

"Boss Wei is right."

Tang Qi didn't know whether he said such a sentence sincerely or falsely, so he changed the subject.

"How's the situation?"

"They are all Cao Jiu's subordinates."

Wei Zhuang just followed the group of people secretly until they entered Cao Jiu's barracks before turning back.

"It's strange. Cao Jiu is a general. If you want to order these supplies, you can purchase them in a fair manner. Why do you have to go through so much trouble? Also, what are the people who attacked us for?"

"Behind unusual things, there is often a reasonable fact, but now, this fact has not yet surfaced."

Tang Qi looked very interested in Wei Zhuang's appearance, and his heart was not good.

It looks like a storm is about to break out!

"General, the spring planting is about to begin, and I have already arranged it."

Cao Jiu listened to the narration of the three elders in the village and nodded.

This is his jurisdiction, but he not only manages the military, but also handles farming.

In South Korea, Xudi is not as prosperous as Yangdi and Xinzheng, but it is most affected by the general trend of the world, especially Qin and Chu.

In the 800-year history of the Chu State, although there have been several ups and downs and the capital has been moved several times, they are all based in Nanjun.Decades ago, Baiqi Baying, Nanyang was the land of Qin, and the vast Jianghan Plain was occupied by the state of Qin.

The state of Chu moved its capital to Chen, less than two hundred miles away from Xudi.At the beginning, the kings and ministers of Chu State had the ambition and ambition to regain the old land, but as time went by, the national power weakened, especially after the failure of the Five Kingdoms to attack Qin Dynasty a few years ago, the kings and ministers of Chu State were all afraid of Qin's retaliation.

The terrain of the Central Plains is flat and the water system is complicated. With the momentum of Lianheng, the Qin army can mobilize heavy troops to the vicinity of Chendu and threaten the political center of Chu State, no matter through the Han territory or the Wei territory.

Therefore, the Chu State moved its capital again, and finally moved the capital to Shoudi, achieving a broad strategic depth.

However, the pressure Xu Di faced did not ease.

As the general guarding the front line, Cao Jiu was under great pressure.Although a large number of troops of the Chu State moved away with the capital, the heavy troops of the Xiang family still garrisoned in Xiangdi, which is only a few steps away from Chendi.

The borders of Qin, Chu, Han, and Wei are even more complicated.Together vertically and horizontally, the situation of the various countries ebbs and flows, perhaps today's allies will become tomorrow's enemies.

As spring plowing was approaching, he had to come out of the barracks and lead his troops to inspect the farming work in various villages.

It's just that Cao Jiu took one more look among the crowd, and after that, he couldn't leave his eyes completely.

"Who is that woman?"

"It's a young widow with a new husband. The villagers took her in because they felt sorry for her."

"widow?"

Cao Jiu became interested in an instant and beckoned.

"Call her to speak to General Ben."

"This"

The three elders in the village are a little hesitant. After all, she is a widow. Is it appropriate to call her that?However, they did not dare to disobey after all, and finally called the little widow over.

"You are so young, why are you here? Who is your husband's family?"

The woman was dressed in plain clothes, with an exquisite figure, and bowed slightly.

"The concubine's husband's family, the Zhao family, was originally in harmony with the concubine, and the husband and wife are loving. What can I do?"

Having said that, the little widow cried, with tears still on her face.

"how?"

"That year when my sister came to visit at home, that bitch had no shame and hooked up with my brother-in-law. The husband couldn't control it for a while, so he sank, and every night he ignored my concubine, only knowing to have fun with that bitch, unfortunately died young. One person is lonely, and is excluded by the clan. Helpless, there is only one person living here."

"No reason!"

Cao Jiu was furious and very injustice.

"Such a beautiful woman, I can bear to be left out. Your husband is simply"

uh-huh!

Cao Jiu's men coughed lightly, waking Cao Jiu up from the state of injustice, reminding him that so many people are watching!

As he said that, Cao Jiu showed sadness and sadness on his face.

"What a poor woman! How difficult it is to be alone, alone."

With a long sigh, Cao Jiu looked at the lieutenant beside him.

"It seems that our mansion is short of a girl who can be used!"

"Ah! Yes, yes!"

Cao Jiu's subordinates rolled their eyes, how do I know what's going on in your mansion.

"So, are you willing?"

"It's a concubine's blessing to be able to serve the general."

"Do you have a name?"

"Little girl, Fei Yan!"

The woman saluted gracefully, making her figure even more slender and light, especially her sad face, which aroused pity.
