After the fairy disappeared

Chapter 142 The situation has changed

He Lingchuan interrupted without waiting for him to finish speaking: "The war in the north is urgent, and it is time to employ people! Wang Ting is now in a state of desperation, and every point of troops that can go to the battlefield is what they want. How can they break their arms at this time? Wait until the battle Now that everyone has military merits and is guarding Xiazhou, Wang Ting wants to make sure that he has to pass the test of the general manager first!"

The general manager of a state is a local official, not only in charge of the economy and people's livelihood, but also the top leader of the military and government, and the royal court also respects him a lot.

Throughout the dynasties, recruiting security has been common.Among the rebels who were recruited, some died well and some died poorly. There is really no uniform law.Wu Shaoyi said to He Lingchuan: "This is a big matter, I have to discuss it with my brothers."

\\\\\

The front is Zhumapo, which means that Pei Xinyong's pursuit can come to an end for the time being.

After losing more than 100 of Lu Yao's [-] ambush soldiers at Shaoziyan, he had already driven him to escape from Zhumapo.

This place is a natural bridge, easy to defend but difficult to attack.After chasing here, Pei Xinyong can put down 200 people to guard the bridge, and lead the large force back to Xianling Village to join Wu Shaoyi.

But Pei Xinyong is a little hesitant now.

The spies he sent to Xianling Village sent back messages three times. The first time was when Wu Shaoyi successfully raided Xianling Village. Lu Yao's subordinates were overwhelmed and were beheaded many times. Lu Yao himself was also chased to the lake and planned to escape by boat. .

Pei Xinyong himself doesn't like Lu Yao.In fact, this kind of ogre is not welcome, especially after the death of the holy master, all the advantages of Lu Yao have become disadvantages.

However, Pei Xinyong always believed that it is not easy to be wiped out by the officers and soldiers if he is in a group, so he proposed that the three parties join forces to discuss the follow-up.

Unexpectedly, Lu Yao harbored evil intentions and put them together.

That being the case, he will help Wu Shaoyi get rid of the culprit, so as not to leave future troubles.

The second information he received was that the officers and soldiers abandoned Xianling Village and also entered Xishan Road.

When Pei Xinyong saw these words, his eyes froze, thinking that the officers and soldiers had seen through his plan with Wu Shaoyi and were coming to Shaoziyan to make a rescue.But the spies then wrote that the officers and soldiers brought more than ten carriages with them on the road, and there were more than a hundred Xianling villagers accompanying them.

This is not right, how can you drag your family with you when suppressing bandits?
These officers and soldiers are not so much like chasing and killing, it is more appropriate to say that they are retreating.Is it because he found out that he couldn't beat Wu Shaoyi, so he ran away with oil on the soles of his feet?
Pei Xinyong hadn't figured out how to deal with this army of officers and soldiers.

In fact, the appearance of this group of officers and soldiers is also very strange.

However, the third news sent back by the spies turned around.

Crocodile God sneak attack Wu Shaoyi, Lu Yao staged a Jedi counter-attack, not only to resolve the immediate crisis, but also took the opportunity to take all Wu Shaoyi's men for his own use!
That's too bad.

Pei Xinyong, a veteran who is used to the storm, didn't think about what he would do next.

leave here?

He was indecisive here, and there was a flutter of wings in the sky.As soon as the guard next to Pei Xinyong raised his hand, the organ bird stood up.

The personal guard took out the note from the hidden compartment and handed it to Pei Xinyong.The latter took it over and took a look, his face changed drastically!
There are only a few words on it, but it smells fishy, ​​and it is obviously written with blood:

"You have a plan to divide! Go east and kill the officers and soldiers, join me, and forget the past!"

The signature is just one word:

Lou!
Apparently, the spy he placed in Xianling Village was found and killed by Lu Yao, and then this person snatched the organ bird and wrote an ultimatum to Pei Xinyong himself.

Is this a trap?
He was indecisive here, and his confidant came over and said: "General, if Lu Yaoru wants to chase us down, just chase us, there is no need to write this note again."

That's right.

Seeing that he had listened, his confidant said again: "If what Lu Yao said is true, if the officers and soldiers of that team are not eliminated, the news of the rebel army going south will leak out sooner or later, and there will be endless troubles."

After the defeat at Woling Pass, the scattered rebels took great care to hide their whereabouts.

Why did these three rebels sneak up to Xianling Lake to join forces?It's not that I covet the silence there, so that I can discuss things well.If the whereabouts are leaked out and troops are repeatedly sent from behind to suppress them, it will be really troublesome.

If Lu Yao told the truth, they could work together to strangle the officers and soldiers;

If Lu Yao wanted to trick him into returning, the number of officers and soldiers would only be two or three hundred, and with Lu Yao four or five hundred, the total would be seven or eight hundred.Pei Xinyong himself has more than 500 soldiers, and he is not very afraid in terms of personnel and quality.

If you can't beat it, you can still go.Besides, he remembered the second piece of information he had received earlier. When the officers and soldiers marched westward, they dragged the old and the young together. It didn't feel like fighting at all, but more like fleeing for their lives!

After thinking about this, he raised his head and ordered: "Change the head and tail, let's go back and kill the dog officer!"

The bandits had a meeting, and He Lingchuan had no choice but to avoid it.

He was actually very anxious, he didn't know how the officers and soldiers were doing, whether they had fought against the enemy or not.But now a strange scene appeared on Xishan Road:
Seven hundred bandits ← Pei Xinyong's army ← officers and soldiers ← Lu Yao's 400 troops.

There are so many forces on Xishan Road, one is chasing the other.Even if He Lingchuan's horse is fast enough, if he chases him now, at most he will catch up with Lu Yao's men and horses, a big battle is inevitable, and he still can't get in touch with his father.

How can this be good?He managed to persuade Wu Shaoyi and persuaded these bandits to use them for himself, it would be a pity not to pull them to relieve the siege of the officers and soldiers.

Trouble is trouble, He Lingchuan's stomach started growling again.

After a night of fierce fighting but no water to beat his teeth, it's time to replenish his strength.He slipped into the villager's house to search one by one, and soon found a few flatbreads from the kitchen.

The fresh wheat in the warehouse is open for the gangsters to eat and drink. They forced the village women to cook a lot of food last night, but suddenly there was a feast of fresh fish at night, so there were many staple foods left in these kitchens.

The fish becomes fishy when it is cold, which is not tasty, but the pancakes can handle it.

He Lingchuan found a few burritos that were baked until they were browned, and ate them while walking. The slightly sweetness of the staple food and the aroma of shallots can soothe the stomach.When it comes to food, he's not really picky.

He thought of those giant crocodiles again, so he went back to the village and found a pen.

He wanted to catch some chickens and ducks, but he didn't know that there were chicken feathers all over the pen, only two chicks were shivering behind the wooden fence.

It seemed that the place had been ransacked by bandits last night. He was about to go out, but he saw bloodstains on the ground, a few chicken heads thrown on the ground, and several hollowed out wreckage.

He Lingchuan picked it up and took a look. It didn't look like a human being.No matter bandits or civilians, after killing chickens, they will be taken to the kitchen for disposal, right?

He shrugged his shoulders and went to another house to find chicken coops. This time he found a few fat chickens, so he caught them by the lake and threw them over.

Anyway, it is also a generosity of others.

These feathered birds clucked and screamed, and they were very lively.The crocodile was too lazy to move, and still basked in the sun with half-closed eyes, while the other little crocodiles ran after the chickens and ducks, and their mouths were covered with hairs after a while.
