Chapter 871 Soldiers and Horses in the Dark (Supplement 6.09)

Lin Yao was a wimp, but when he raised his army, he was ambitious and wanted to take over the world.

But it didn't take long, the uprising of the world uprising, the rebellion of the rebellion, and the separatist forces everywhere. Lin Yao was defeated not long after, and he has been nesting in Peifeng City for these years.

Master Zhi absolutely does not believe that Lin Yao has an army that dares to leave the city.

So now that there is an army, it should be Li Xiao's own.

Although Cai He never mentioned the word army, he always appeared as a rich man.

But for Lord Zhi, from the moment Cai He showed up, he knew that this person was Cai He, the Cai He next to Li Xiao.

Therefore, the more Master Zhi thought about this army, the more he felt that this should be Cai He's trick, after all, he is a counselor.

in this way……

Cheng, old man, if you want to play tricks with me, then I will not be fooled by you.

"It's okay!" Ye Zhi shouted, knocking on the bowl with his chopsticks, "Let's eat what we have, and even the army won't touch us!"

All the big Han paused, and immediately agreed.

The fatter Jinwei was very anxious: "Master Zhi, this is no joke!"

The entourage who kept twisting Master Zhi's psoas said quietly, "Master Zhi, why don't I go outside and have a look?"

Master Zhi nodded, turned his head and said seriously: "Remember to be careful, if you see something wrong, come back immediately, son."

The follower frowned.

The porridge that Master Zhi had just swallowed almost didn't come out of his nasal cavity, he suppressed a smile and coughed: "No, I didn't do it on purpose, I just kept forgetting."

The entourage glared at him angrily, got up and walked away, angry.

The fatter guard came out with him.

Just from the house, I really heard the sound of horseshoes.

Not only the sound of horseshoes, but also the sound of wheels.

The attendant frowned and walked towards the source of the sound.

The fatter guard felt something was wrong, and when he quickly followed him, he turned his head and looked to the northwest.

"Where are you looking?" asked the follower.

"That's not right," said the fatter guard, "The sound of the horse's hooves I heard just now came from the northwest direction, from this side..."

After the words fell, the windward lights beside the carriage were already seen in the field of vision.

"Sir!" The fatter guard changed his voice, "It's my husband!"

The guards who went to call Mr. Cai He rode fast horses in front. Seeing his followers and the fatter guards, he speeded up.

The entourage looked at the fatter guard with a playful look.

The fatter Konoe didn't pay attention to it, and turned his gaze away, and ran forward.

The guard reined in his horse, got off his horse and said, "Mr. is here!"

Glancing at Master Zhi's entourage behind him, the guard lowered his voice: "Sir, you want to go back to Liujing Mansion, and take Master Zhi with you."

"What? This guy is not easy to persuade!"

"First the courtesy and then the soldiers, if it is not easy to persuade, the soldiers and horses will enter the village and expel them!"

"Soldiers and horses?" The fatter guard looked at the carriage behind him.

The carriage was slowly coming to a stop, and the coachman moved the stool down for Cai He to step on.

There are only carriages and a few guards, but no soldiers or horses.

The fatter guard withdrew his gaze and understood: "Is it in the dark?"

"It must be in the dark."

"So..." the fatter Jinwei slapped his forehead, "This is me, scare myself."

"what?"

"Let me tell you," the fatter guard immediately poured out the bitter water in his belly, "That master, he is drinking porridge and soaking his feet right now, so he is not polite to call me, but I am not his subordinate, this business relationship Even the most powerful people don’t necessarily use the guards of their partners and friends as their own slaves..."

The guard coughed quickly.

The fatter guard turned his head, and the follower of Master Zhi, who had been left behind for a long time, had an unkind expression: "I said, it's been too long for you two to whisper in whispers, are you talking about my Master Zhi?" speak ill of you?"

"No, no!" the fatter guard hurriedly said.

"What bad words?" Mr. Cai He walked over quickly and said, "Where is Master Zhi?"

"Hmph." The attendant snorted coldly and looked aside.

"Big brother," Mr. Cai He's entourage stepped forward and said to him gently, "My husband heard that Master Zhi is coming, so he put down everything he was doing and came here, and he dare not neglect."

"When we came down from Youzhou, we had heard that Peifeng was a poor place. Now that we've been through this situation, we're poor and poor!" the entourage shouted.

At this time, a person walked out of the house to check the situation.

The eyes of everyone looked.

"Master Zhi sent me out to have a look," said the man, "Oh, isn't this Mr. Cai He?"

Cai He cupped his hands away at him and raised his feet to walk away.

As soon as the soles of the shoes stepped onto the bamboo raft by the lake, they felt a tremor on the soles of their feet.

Mr. Cai He frowned and raised his eyes to look northwest.

Not only him, but everyone else heard the sound of horseshoes there.

Seeing Mr. Cai He's expression, the fatter guard was startled, stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Sir, these soldiers and horses have been in the northwest, and they have heard it before."

"Northwest..." Mr. Cai He murmured.

"Yes."

"Not good!" Mr. Cai He's complexion changed, "It must be related to her!"

"Who?" The guards asked hurriedly.

"Quick!" Mr. Cai He shouted at the person at the door, "Let Lord Zhi come out quickly, there are robbers here!"

As he spoke, he picked up his robe and ran away.

The people in the room were happily drinking and eating fish. Seeing Cai He running, Master Zhi burped and patted the wooden bed beside him: "Ah, it's sir! Your guard just found a jar of wine for me Son, the taste is not bad! Come, sir, come and sit together!"

"Master Zhi," Mr. Cai He raised his hand, "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, Master Zhi, pack up your things and go."

"Why are you leaving?"

"There are... there are horse thieves!" Mr. Cai He said, "Wanshan Pass has been unguarded since then, and there have been horse thieves all year round! My men just came back and said that a group of horse thieves are coming from the northeast!"

Everyone in the house fell silent.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and finally, look back at Master Zhi.

Master Zhi was not sure if this was Cai He's trick.

They have a lot of news. They have been traveling from south to north for so long. They have heard of horse thieves in Wanshan Pass, and Cai He's anxious expression now seems to be pretending.

"Then," Master Zhi asked, "how many troops does the opponent have?"

"It's still unknown, but the sound of the horse's hooves... should be quite a lot."

A big man in the room said seriously: "Master Zhi, this is not a trifling matter, we have to figure it out. How many horse thieves can there be, and they can only survive for a thousand children. If it exceeds a thousand children, then they are not horse thieves, but exiled soldiers, right?"

Master Zhi looked at him and nodded: "Yes, you are right."

Looking back at Cai He, he saw Cai He frowning thoughtfully.

"Sir?" Master Zhi said.

Cai He's reaction was a little slow, and he was a little dazed and flustered. He raised his head and made a hasty bow: "Master Zhi, you pack up first, so that you can leave. I'll send someone to check carefully to see how many people there are."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

After coming out, Cai He walked very quickly, and called a few guards, asking them to check immediately.
