Chapter 80
Chapter 79: Head
“Da Pang Ren doesn’t have to worry about coming, but you have to be careful in front of you, General!” Before Pang Tianci turned his head, Lei Xianchu fell, and then laughed loudly: “Dead chess, Hu Pang Ren lost.”
Pang Tianci turned his head to look, and sure enough, Lei Xianchu had already defeated his own chess game, so he could not help but said absentmindedly: “It’s still the first move for the adults, the lower officials admire and admire.”
While the two of them were talking, the sound of the horse’s hooves was already coming from far to near, but when they got close, several horses approached. When Lei Xianchu saw the horse behind the crotch of the previous man, Lei Xianchu’s eyes could not help but light up, and he secretly said that there was a big horse. Blue horse!
It was only a few people who came, which made Pang Tianci heave a sigh of relief. Seeing that Lei Xianchu’s face was calm from beginning to end, he felt ashamed for his performance just now, and also admired Lei Xianchu a little, as expected of a hereditary military officer. Courageous knowledge is stronger than ordinary people.
Lei Xianchu’s subordinates had already ordered the soldiers to line up. Although there were only a few of them, they had to show their appearance, otherwise the guerrilla-sama would not look good on his face. Under the orders of several officers, the Gaozhou soldiers reluctantly got up and lined up in front. Although it was a mess, they finally got out of the queue before those people dismounted.
Over there, Zhou Shixiang restrained his horse and stood still, not in a hurry to dismount, but observed the opposite side, and then asked Ge Zheng and Ge Yi brothers behind him, “Is this what Li Dingguo’s soldiers look like?”
“If Li Dingguo’s soldiers are like this, why should the Tartars be afraid of him?” Ge Zheng glanced at the other side with disdain, “Mostly it’s a random brand of brave soldiers called by Zhang Xiaoqi, tell me, this guy named Lei is probably also a bad brand. .”
“What kind of **** guerrilla, that’s all, if you really dare to swallow us, I, Ge Liu, can take care of them without Lord Qianhu’s hands.”
Ever since I heard from Zhang An that Gaozhou sent a guerrilla to prepare to annex the Taiping Camp, Ge Liu’s heart was on fire. Brother Hu’s bones were not cold, so Gaozhou made the idea of annexing the Taiping Camp. Cheng Bangjun is not a good bird either, and Zhang Xiaoqi is not a thing either. Big Brother Hu would talk about Mr. Zhang every day when he was alive.
“Don’t act rashly, the visitor is a guest, and he is here on behalf of the governor of the four governments. Before the other party does not explain the purpose of his visit, we must not lose our courtesy, otherwise, we will be the ones who are unreasonable.”
Zhou Shixiang was afraid that Ge Yi would cause trouble, so he warned him in advance to get off his horse, then led the brothers to the front, clasped their fists and saluted, and asked loudly, “Which one is the Leizhou guerrilla master? ”
“General Hu, don’t be too polite!”
Pang Tianci only said that the person who came was Hu Quan. Seeing the other party’s gentle appearance, he couldn’t help but have a good impression. He smiled and nodded.
“This official is Lei Xianchu.”
Lei Xianchu was not as polite as Pang Tianci, he didn’t even stand, he just sat there and gave Zhou Shixiang an old-fashioned nod.
Such an attitude naturally caused the brothers who came with Zhou Shixiang to make a fire, but Zhou Shixiang remained calm, stepped forward and bowed his hands to Lei Xianchu again, neither humble nor arrogant: “Lord Lei has come from a long way, it has been hard work all the way, please come with me. When I enter the city, I have already prepared beauties for the adults to wash away the dust.”
“There is no need to drink alcohol. Drinking too much will cause trouble. This official gave up a few years ago.”
Lei Xianchu looked Zhou Shixiang up and down, then stood up, but a follower next to him quietly took two steps towards him, and then said something in a low voice. After listening to what the entourage said, Lei Xianchu suddenly became suspicious, stared at Zhou Shixiang and said, “Are you Hu Quan?”
Zhou Shixiang looked at his expression, and then looked at the strange look of the entourage. He guessed in his heart that the other party might have seen Hu Quan. He knew that Hu Quan was a one-armed man, but he had a different appearance. Hu Quan had both arms, so he was born. Doubt. He didn’t hide it at the moment, and said, “It’s not Hu Quan below.”
As soon as he heard that it was not Hu Quan, Lei Xianchu’s face suddenly sank: “Where is Hu Quan, why didn’t you come to see this official?”
Without waiting for Zhou Shixiang to reply, Ge Yi, who was already on fire, said first: “My eldest brother is dead, it is not easy for you to see him. Hmph, even if my eldest brother is not dead, he is a general and you are a guerrilla, why do you want my eldest brother? to see you?”
“Um?”
Hearing Ge Yi’s words with a gun and a stick, Lei Xianchu was furious, and his eyebrows were about to explode. However, Pang Tianci was quick to see the opportunity, and hurriedly asked, “How did General Hu die?” This incident made Lei Xianchu uncomfortable.
Zhou Shixiang was inconvenient to blame Ge Yi for being inaccurate. He was about to say a few short words in the battle with Deqing Green Camp. Pang Tianci couldn’t help sighing after hearing this.
However, Lei Xianchu did not sigh, but was amazed: How could these bandits dare to take the initiative to attack the Qing army in Deqing, are they strong?
Surprised but also happy, if the bandits are not weak, then this trip to Luo Ding is worth it. The minions on the opposite side are not pleasant to speak, but the young man in front of him is very measured. Behind him is the imperial court, and the Lord Futai is standing. Forgive this youngster for not daring to mess around. After entering the city, he will be happy Appease, the people Hu Quan left behind are all his own.
Thinking of this, his face could not help but soften a lot. After expressing his condolences for Hu Quan’s death, he asked Zhou Shixiang, “Who are you, and what is Luo Ding doing now?”
“Next week Shixiang, Meng Zhong brothers will look up to him, and he will be the current leader.” Zhou Shixiang said.
“What kind of leader is not a leader? It sounds like a bandit. Since you have been recruited, you should pretend to be an official army and make yourself a leader of the imperial court. You can’t say that this leader is not a leader in the future.” Lei Xianchu said. Turning around, “Since Hu Quan is dead, this official will ask the imperial court for a seal for him. As for you, this official also has his own arrangements.”
Hearing this, Ge Yi couldn’t help but have another seizure, but was held back by his brother Ge Zheng, Zhou Shixiang also glared back at him, which made Ge Yi hold back the words.
“This is not the place to talk, please enter the city first, and it will not be too late to talk about this tomorrow after the wind is washed away.”
“Alright.”
Lei Xianchu did not refuse, and introduced Pang Tianci and several of his men to Zhou Shixiang. Zhou Shixiang greeted each other with fists, and then led the way and led Lei Xianchu and his party back to the city.
On the way, Xu Shi knew that Hu Quan was dead, and he won the seal of the general and his subordinates without obstacles. Lei Xianchu was in a particularly good mood. These two battles are also a lot of questions. Zhou Shixiang knew everything, but he obviously didn’t say a word, and he didn’t say a word to him at all in many important places.
Pang Tianci’s riding skills are not very good. The riding on this journey has already caused his thighs to hurt. Fortunately, Luo Ding is not far away, so he also insisted on it. He added a few words from time to time, nodded or surprised from time to time, and cooperated very well. it is good.
Zhou Shixiang didn’t forget to attack him, and wanted to find out why the military attache Lei Xianchu came to Luoding, and where Cheng Bangjun, the military secretary, went to, but just as he deliberately concealed it, Lei Xianchu and Pang Tianci also did so. Not much to say.
When Zhou Shi met, they didn’t want to talk, so he didn’t ask, but asked about the current situation of the anti-Qing Dynasty. Lei Xianchu didn’t know much about it, so he didn’t say anything. However, Pang Tianci promised to get some news from Pang Tianshou, the elder brother of the same sect, that the king of Qin, Sun Kewang, was leading an army to confront the Qing army in Hunan, and planned to take Nanjing along the river. .
The capture of Nanjing along the river is a major event. If it succeeds, the revival of Nanming is really not an extravagant talk. However, Zhou Shixiang is clear that in his historical memory, there is no battle to capture Nanjing led by Sun Kewang, but the battle of Zheng Chenggong’s entry into the Yangtze River, and Sun Kewang’s final outcome It was the Qing Dynasty, so it can be seen that Pang Tianci’s statement that the King of Qin would use his troops to capture Nandu was probably empty talk.
He asked Li Dingguo, King of Xining again, but this is really embarrassing. Lei Xianchu is just a guerrilla under Zhang Xiaoqi. Although Pang Tianci has a brother of the same clan who is the **** who is in charge of the ceremony, he is only a seventh-rank magistrate. The news that Sun Kewang was going to win Nanjing was still unintentionally mentioned to him by Pang Tianshou. He guessed by himself, how could he really know what the princes were doing.
During the conversation, Lei Xianchu had more than once praised the big blue horse that Zhou Shixiang rode. When he learned that Zhou Shixiang had snatched the horse from Yunlong, the flag ginseng general of the Han army of Tartars, Lei Xianchu was even more jealous and lost his sight several times. On the big blue horse, Pang Tianci couldn’t hear what he said. In this regard, Zhou Shixiang just kept it in his heart and did not care about him.
Afterwards, the two sides had nothing to say, and they just walked along without a word. Hurry up and hurry, and finally saw Luoding’s broken city wall before the sun went down, but in front of the city gate, they saw a group of soldiers with two carriages parked there. Judging from their appearance, it was obvious. specially waiting.
…………
“What’s in the car?”
Lei Xianchu galloped his horse to the front of the carriage, and saw that the carriage was covered with hay, as if it was hiding some treasure. Pang Tianci was also curious and couldn’t help but want to see what was on the car, but Ge Zheng, Ge Yi and the others laughed secretly in their hearts, waiting to see the joke with a stern face.
“It stinks!”
A Gaozhou officer who came with Lei Xianchu saw that his lord was strange, so he wanted to open the grass, but before he could get close to the carriage, a strange smell caused him to stop subconsciously. It was inaudible, and the smoke made his stomach overturn the river and the sea, and he wanted to vomit very much.
“What? It smells so bad!”
At the same time, the Gaozhou soldiers who were approaching also covered their noses. Pang Tianci’s entourage looked at the car with disgust. Pang Tianci also covered his nose and hid aside as if he saw the dung truck. UU reading www.uukanshu. com can’t help it, the smell from the car is really unpleasant.
“What is it?”
Lei Xianchu was furious. He smelled the stench even before entering the city. What did these bandits want to do? Are you trying to use the **** odor to give me a slap in the face? If so, it’s too much of a joke!
Pang Tianci also frowned, and intuitively told him that the two carriages were not loaded with good things, and it was really the intention of the bandits. He suppressed his displeasure and asked Zhou Shixiang, “What’s on the car?”
Zhou Shixiang said slowly: “Head, the head of the Qing army.”
“Head?!”
Pang Tianci was startled, jumped all the way, his eyes widened, and his face was incredible.
“What’s so scary about people? This officer has been fighting for so many years, and I haven’t seen anything!”
However, Pang Tianci didn’t care at all, and he was not afraid. He just thought that Luo Ding and the bandits were deliberately frightening him because of the courage of his guerrilla master. Since I have the heart to swallow them up, I absolutely cannot show my timidity in front of them, otherwise why would I convince the public!
As he spoke, he picked up the hay on the car, and when the guerrilla master made his move, two Gaozhou soldiers stepped forward to help. However, when the hay was removed, the three of them stayed there like Zhongxie. Not even breathing.
“It’s really a head…”
The faces of the two Gaozhou soldiers turned pale, their voices stuttered, and their legs trembled.
However, Pang Tianci did not turn pale, nor did he retreat in fright, but stared blankly at the piles of heads on the car, his cheeks shaking.
