Daming Junior Scholar

How can there be such a good thing in this world, this He Jiaan must be lying to himself.

With a puzzled expression on Luo Jing's face, he shook his head at He Jia'an, and snorted coldly: "Is Mr. He joking about me, Lao Luo? Are you really able to get tens of thousands of taels of silver a day?"

"It seems that Master Luo can't trust me anymore?" He Jiaan stood up with a sneer, and said, "Come with me."

He Jiaan was in front, Luo Jing was behind, the distance between the two was not too far, looking at He Jiaan's undefended back, Luo Jing suddenly had a thought in his heart, if he caught He Jiaan at this time, wouldn't it be Can you use him to get out of here?

Just when he was seriously considering the possibility of success in this matter, He Jiaan, who was walking in front, suddenly said: "Master Luo, although some things are easy to do, they may miss more important things. You still have to think twice before acting.”

Is he warning himself?

Luo Jing understood in an instant, and immediately dismissed the thought just now, and said with a smile: "Master He misunderstood, Luo has no other ideas."

"It's fine if you don't have it, I'm just expressing my feelings."

While the two were talking, He Jiaan came to a tent, which was different from other tents in the camp, but there were many people guarding the door of this tent. When they saw He Jiaan, everyone immediately moved away, and then He Jiaan led Luo Jing into the tent.

The tent was not big, but it was very full. The whole tent was filled with brown wooden boxes. Looking at Luo Jing's puzzled face, he asked in puzzlement, "What is the meaning of Mr. He bringing me here?" ?”

He Jiaan didn't speak, walked up to a separate box, and said with a smile: "Luo Da is a good guy." Then the box was opened.

The moment the box was opened, a faint silver light shot out from the box. When looking at the contents of the box, Luo Jing's eyes straightened immediately, and his mouth opened slowly, as if he was looking at the contents of the box. like a dream.

What surprised him was not the silver box, but how many taels of silver would there be if there were so many boxes in the tent?

I have been walking in the rivers and lakes for so many years, and I have also robbed many large caravans, but no caravan will bring such a big shock to me like today. Moving away from above, when he looked at He Jiaan again, his eyes became extremely complicated, he hesitated and asked: "How many people will Mr. He plan to borrow?"

"It's still the same sentence, the more the better." He Jiaan stretched out his hand and closed the cash box again.

When the silver light disappeared from his sight, Luo Jing's whole body seemed a little more normal. He calculated in his brain, then stretched out three fingers and said, "3000 people, how about it?"

Forget it, He Jiaan nodded: "Okay, it's a deal, but I will see these people appear here tomorrow morning."

"So urgent?" Luo Jing was taken aback for a moment, if that was the case, he might not have much time left for him.

"Quite urgent."

"Well, Mr. He is here to wait for the good news from Luo."

After finishing speaking, Luo Jing was about to go out, but He Jiaan suddenly asked curiously: "Didn't Master Luo ask me the purpose of borrowing someone?"

"What's so difficult about it." Luo Jing turned his head and smiled, and continued, "Isn't it just to save those idiots?"

"That's right, they're a bunch of idiots."

Chapter 1064 Worrying

It was already late at night, and the wind was blowing on the snow-covered snow field, but suddenly there was a sound of horseshoes on a barren grassland. Three war horses ran quickly from a distance, and then sped away, leaving only the snow behind. The series of horseshoe prints on the ground proved that they had been here before.

After running for more than half an hour, the speed of the three horses gradually slowed down, and the three of them found a small bag in the wind and stopped. While feeding the horses, they took out a handful of camellia noodles from their arms and put them in their mouths. Chewing slowly.

After chewing a mouthful, someone said in surprise: "Brother, where did you get this thing? It's much better than eating those dry rations."

The one who was called the eldest brother was naturally Nine Fingers Yan Luojing. He Jiaan specially brought these camellia noodles for him when he was leaving, and he also told him to drink with water, and to eat dry if there was no water. Jing is extremely curious.

It's just a pity that He Jia'an only gave himself a small bag, and he finished eating after two or three meals.

After chewing a few mouthfuls, his stomach was finally not so empty, and while the war horse was still grazing, another brother Fei Bao brought by him finally couldn't hold back his doubts, and asked in a low voice: "Brother, is it possible Are we really going to help the officers and soldiers fight this time? They are our enemies."

Luo Jing knew that this question would have to be answered sooner or later, so he glanced at his brother, and said unwillingly: "Now there are two ways for you to choose, the first is to lose your head, and the second is to help them fight a battle with money. Each goes back to each house, each finds each mother, tell me, which one to choose?"

Fei Bao smiled shyly and said, "Of course I chose the second one. Who wants to die if they live well, but brother, if we also fight this battle, I will help you, but the officers and soldiers suddenly regretted it. What should I do? That's tens of thousands of taels of silver, can that man surnamed He be the master?"

It's not that Luo Jing hasn't considered this matter, but based on his own experience in seeing people, he feels that although He Jiaan's words are not pleasant, such talents are often worthy of trust, unlike the big Mings he had communicated with before. The officials of the government, although they speak nicely, actually don't care about bullshit.

But he couldn't completely believe what this surnamed He said, Luo Jing hesitated and said: "When I came, I had already made an agreement with him, as long as he brought 3000 people over, he would pay half of our money first, and when we arrived It's time to wait until the war is over, and then give us the rest of the money and pensions, as for the location, it's up to us."

Such a condition sounds more favorable to him. Fei Bao exchanged glances with the other person and then nodded. As long as there is money, it is not too difficult to convince these bandits.

While Luo Jing was discussing things with his two brothers, Jiang Bin was struggling the most in his life in a place dozens of miles away.

Maybe it's because I stayed in the capital for too long recently, and my original muscles have relaxed. I'm used to living in a warm palace, but suddenly I live in the wilderness, but I can't bear the biting cold.

But all the clothes that could keep warm had been covered on his body, but Jiang Bin still didn't feel any drowsiness, so he simply stood up again, looking at the scattered fires everywhere, he couldn't help but sighed in his heart.

I didn't expect these Tatars to be so cunning, they saw their own weaknesses and chased after them. If this continues, tomorrow's battle will still not be easy to fight, and I don't know if those who reported the letter have received the letter. Send back to Datong.

But even if the letter is really delivered, with such a pitiful force in the city, who can rescue him?

This was a completely sleepless night, Luo Jing was running around to borrow troops, Jiang Bin was struggling to support the army's territory, Zhengde was praying to the statue of Bodhisattva, and at this time He Jiaan was also struggling with his own How should I give Luo Jing the 3 taels of silver that he promised.

What I showed him was the 20 taels of silver that I had snatched from Wei Xishan. It was He Jiaan himself who felt a little pain.

The meat pain is still second, the key is how to explain the source of the money to Zhengde. When the army sets out, no one will bring so much money to the battlefield without incident, so after thinking about it for a long time, He Jiaan decided to hide the existence of the money. Before Luo Jing and the others came back, he went straight to Datong at dawn.

When we arrived at the foot of Datong City, the city gate hadn't opened yet. When we heard that He Jia'an had something urgent to meet His Majesty, a large basket was hung from the wall, and He Jia'an and Tang Lin were pulled up. As for their horses Just put it under the city first, and wait for someone to send it over when the city opens.

Soon, He Jia'an saw Zhengde, who was a little depressed. After paying homage to the Bodhisattva for a night, he opened his dark circles, and there was a glimmer of hope in his eyes: "He Aiqing, when can we send troops?"

He Jiaan said with embarrassment: "Return to Your Majesty, last night I already persuaded Luo Jing to go out to borrow troops, but I also agreed to his request at that time. This request cannot be fulfilled, so I come to ask Your Majesty to help."

"What request?" Zhengde felt a little bad in his heart, but he had indeed promised He Jiaan about this matter. If you have any questions, you can go to Zhang Yong. If Zhang Yong can't do it, you can come to him. Now He Jiaan will come directly. Looking for yourself, doesn't it mean that this matter is not easy to do.

He Jia'an said seriously: "Then Luo Jing listened to the minister's words, but he didn't refuse, but he proposed that each person should pay ten taels of silver for hard work, and if he died in battle, the pension would have to be doubled."

"Ten taels?" Zhengde blinked his eyes, and he said it silently in his heart, and he couldn't help but feel a little pain in his flesh. The good guy's move is 3 taels of silver. How much can he do with this money.

But right now, even if the lion opened his mouth, he had to pinch his nose and hold back. After all, if the money is gone, it can be recovered, but if the entire army is wiped out, then it is not something that money can solve.

After thinking it over, Zhengde turned his head and asked, "Zhang Yong, hurry up and withdraw 3 taels of cash to He Aiqing."

Zhang Yong was stunned, and said carefully: "Your Majesty, you forgot that we didn't bring much cash when we came out this time."

"Huh? That should be so good?" Zhengde didn't expect that even a wealthy man would sometimes have no money.

Zhang Yong thought for a while and said: "Datong should still have Ku Yin, so it's better to lend 3 taels first, and when His Majesty returns to the capital, he can directly exempt them from taxes of 3 taels."

This is a good idea, Zhengde nodded, and urged: "Since you have already figured out a way, why are you still standing still, why don't you hurry up and send troops."

If someone else picks up the money, the procedures are so cumbersome that it would be a headache, but this time the response from top to bottom was extremely fast. Before the sun came out, 3 taels of silver had already been loaded onto the cart, five carriages They lined up and drove quickly towards the camp outside the city.

Chapter 1065 The Long Night

Chapter 1065 The Long Night

I'm afraid that even Jiang Bin himself didn't know how he survived the night. When a gleam of white light finally appeared in the east, Jiang Bin almost burst into tears. Only ghosts know how difficult this night was for him. Food and grass, the clothes on his body were not enough to keep out the cold, and the Tatars kept harassing him throughout the night, so he didn't close his eyes all night.

When he could see everything in front of him clearly, Jiang Bin finally let out a long breath, and began to let his soldiers move their hands and feet quickly, marching in the direction of Datong City with infantry in front and riders behind.
