Chapter 405 405: I Want Thirty Thousand Ten Blackheads ([-]) [Two in One]

Xu Quan: "..."

Seeing that he seemed to have something to say, Chu Yao patiently waited for him to prepare the content, Xu Quan could only take a deep breath, and said what was in his heart: "I think the lord may not be able to bear it."

Chu Yao: "..."

Xu Quan said: "The lord seems to be protecting his weaknesses..."

In fact, the word "seems" can be deleted.

My protagonist is very defensive.

Chu Yao's smile at this moment is much more sincere than before, even with a rippling smile in his eyes, he said: "It's Yao's luck to be valued by the lord. However, this matter is Yao's private matter after all. Bian Yao will go to talk..."

The lord will not do things that embarrass him.

In this regard, Chu Yao is still confident.

"Wen Shi wants to ask, is this all?"

Xu Quan was suddenly named by Chu Yao, and he became nervous, and said a little uncomfortably: "It should... only these."

"You don't want to ask about Guoxi?"

Chu Yao hit a straight ball.

Xu Quan was almost stunned by the oncoming straight ball, and said in a panic, "Well...it's not easy to ask."

In fact, his heart has already scratched his heart.

But couldn't find the right time to ask.

If you ask too many questions, you will be suspected of being sneaky again.

Chu Yao didn't have so many scruples. He admitted generously and personally: "When I was in Chu State, I encountered an unpleasant past event, which led to Wenxin being abolished and degraded to Xin State. Today's Wenxin was indeed recovered by relying on the lord. In the lord's hands is a piece of the country's most important weapon that all warlords in the world dream of - the national seal!"

Xu Quan's heart trembled even more.

"This, this matter... Are there many who know or few?"

Chu Yao looked at the border barrier hidden between mountains and mist: "There are many people who know, so it's still a secret? Only a few confidantes know about this matter, and now there is one more you... and Master Yu and General Chu, the two do not worry……"

Xu Quan is not stupid either.

Naturally, he could hear the deep meaning of Chu Yao's words - not worried about Master Yu and General Chu, but worried about him.

Xu Quan said: "I will not tell my cousin in the end."

This is his guarantee.

Stubbornness is stubbornness, but when it comes to matters as sensitive as loyalty, he knows exactly what can be said, what should be said, and what should be kept in his stomach.Mr. Chu was worried that he would make a mistake, so he hit him specially?
Chu Yao laughed.

"Isn't it?" Xu Quan was puzzled.

Chu Yao's eyes were slightly bent, and instead of answering, he asked, "How do you think General Chu judged that the lord has a national seal in his hand?"

Xu Quan: "Because Mr. has regained his literary heart."

But does that have anything to do with the front?

The relationship is getting bigger.

Chu Yao said: "As long as someone knows the identity of the old man, and knows that the old man has lost his literary heart, it is not difficult to find the national seal. Those who are a little slow, misunderstand that the lord is loyal to Zheng Qiao, and the old man is also loyal to Zheng Qiao. You can learn more about it. Then you will know who the Imperial Seal is on. With your cousin's connections, it will be a matter of time before you guess this level, but it's just a matter of time."

Xu Quan: "...will you?"

He bet his cousin had no idea.

if--

What if the cousin knew about it?
Xu Quan was not sure, but he knew that his cousin always put the interests of the family first.Chu Yao gave him the answer.

"If Wenzhu had guessed this, he would definitely hide it. Because telling Wu Xian, nothing harms anything, and it will attract suspicion. You are right not to tell him. The less you know, the safer the situation. Let him take it easy. Take a slow guess..."

If you don't tell Xu Jie, you are protecting Xu Jie.

Xu Quan's heart turned a thousand times.

In the end, he nodded his head heavily, with a determined look on his face.

With a slight smile in Chu Yao's eyes, he led Xu Quan down the city wall and wandered all the way back to the camp.At this time, the sky was completely dark, and the brazier outside the tent was lit, and the orange-red flames swayed in the wind and snow, and the little bits of snow fluttered gracefully like light butterflies.

Chu Yao raised his hand and flicked the snow off his shoulders. Xu Quan tensed up as soon as he stepped into the tent, and his fighting spirit surged: "Who is it?"

Chu Yao stopped and said, "Don't be nervous."

He was all too familiar with the figures in the camp.

Ask: "Come here to make trouble?"

Who else could be so disgusted by Chu Yao, except for his predecessor, Fa Xiao?Xu Quan also said angrily: "What's the matter, the detainee is still not at ease, and he still has to trouble a passer-by to keep an eye on him personally? How can we, He De, be treated like this..."

Chu Yao skipped many pleasantries and went straight to the point.

Asked: "Say it, what's the matter?"

The general said: "Come here and ask you for advice."

Chu Yao: "...Ask for advice?"

Seeing his predecessor Faxiao's serious face, Chu Yao also paid a little attention to the things he asked to teach.The general took out a few pieces of sheepskin, with only simple lines on it, representing mountains and rivers, as well as a dozen simple tents, cattle and sheep...

He guessed a bit when he saw it.

"Ten black?"

The chief general said: "Yes."

Chu Yao looked at the other party calmly, waiting for the next sentence.

The general asked in a low voice: "If you have these maps, can you find the corresponding tribes and lead people to destroy them?"

Chu Yao looked at the newness and wear of the parchment, and put it aside: "The Shiwu tribe has the custom of living by the water, which is completely different from the common people in the Central Plains of the mainland. Every one of the drawings you gave is on the paper. Age, how can the tribes marked on it stay where they are? Following the map, I’m afraid I’m going to miss out—but these tributaries of the water system have some uses.”

But the drawing is rough.

Accuracy is hopeless.

Xu Quan on one side heard more and more something was wrong.

"Do you want Mr. Chu to help you lead troops to attack the Shiwu tribe?"

This guy is dreaming, thinking so beautifully?

The general didn't speak, Chu Yao frowned and thought deeply.

He is not the young man Xu Quan.

Based on what he knew about his predecessor, Fa Xiao, it might be difficult to evade this matter - because this is not the faction leader's attack on the Shiwu tribe, but his own lord's prestige!
As the Lord General said before, the morale of an army cannot be bought with two thousand shi, food and salaries, especially for these elites who have experienced many battles, it is even more difficult to return their hearts!You don't need any fancy tricks to impress them!Only strength!

Don't be shy about this matter.

Chu Yao rolled up several sheepskin maps carefully.

Calmly ask: "How much do you want?"

At this time, Xu Quan had a question mark on his forehead.

What "how much do you want"? ? ?
What conversation did these two have that they didn't hear?

Then the master replied, "Not much, [-]!"

Chu Yao nodded: "It's only [-]? That's really not much, but this matter is of great importance. I can't make the decision alone. After the lord arrives in two days, we can discuss it again. What do you think?"

The chief general nodded, then stood up and said goodbye.

It came without warning and went inexplicably.

Xu Quan scratched his head and was almost tortured to death by curiosity. He looked at Chu Yao eagerly, hoping for an explanation.

Chu Yao looked at the map and sighed, "It's not easy."

Xu Quan: "???"

What is "not easy", can't you just tell him?

Chu Yao is not Gu Chi and Qishan who like to show off, and he doesn't have such a bad taste. He revealed the answer happily, frowned solemnly and said: "The meaning of the general of Yongguguan is that he wants the heads of [-] people from the Wu tribe. ! These maps are clues."

Thirty thousand... ten black heads?
Xu Quan gasped.

"Sir... Isn't this embarrassing people?"

Chu Yao raised his eyebrows, and suddenly smiled: "This is embarrassing. It is easy to get the military power in the hands of others? They don't care about food and pay, they can plunder Shi Wu, and if they are more cruel, they can even rob Long Wu or others. The common people in Longwu's neighboring counties use this to raise military salaries for them to guard the city. If they insist on refusing to hand it over, we will have nothing to do with them..."

Xu Quan snorted: "Then fight?"

Chu Yao knew that he was acting on his will.

Funny and said: "In the end, the Shiwu tribe was cheaper? Not to mention whether we can fight or not, even if we fight, our army only has more than 2 troops, and Yonggu Pass has more than [-] elites, and it still occupies the advantage of the pass. It is easy to defend here. Difficult to attack, impossible to take by force.”

Xu Quan pursed his lips.

Chu Yao pointed out the key point again: "This should not be his idea alone, most of it is the result of unanimous discussion among the staff under the account. If you can't even reach this point, how can you convince the public? Just [-] heads of the Shiwu tribe , why can't you take it?"

Xu Quan was worried.

On the other side, Lu Jue traveled day and night, and returned to the government office as quickly as possible to report to Ru Yao, but it took only one day and one night.Seeing that he was the only one returning, Shen Tang felt ominous.

Asking again, the violent scolding almost toppled the roof.

"Fuck! Who was detained?"

Shen Tang was so angry that he smashed the table with his palm.

She said that Wuhui's old arms and legs were not suitable for long-distance business trips, and now she was detained, and she didn't know what kind of torture and cruel abuse she would receive.

Shen Tang seemed to see Chu Yao dying.

Lu Jue didn't care about his tiredness and almost exhausted martial energy, and tried to reply to what he had seen and heard.Based on the principle of seeking truth from facts, he described and restored the scene at that time without any embellishments, and still listened to Shen Tang with a serious expression.

So gloomy it could almost drop a bucket of water.

Finally, she said: "Okay, I'll go meet for a while!"

Gu Chi and the others rushed over when they heard the wind.

Hastily stopped: "My lord must not be reckless."

Shen Tang "I don't listen, I don't listen": "I'm not reckless! People are so arrogant that they squatted on my roof to shit!"

The person who detained her?
When she Shen Tang is dead?

She was very angry and wanted to negotiate with the other party peacefully, but the other party turned his face and refused to recognize anyone, took her two thousand shi military salary and detained her confidant, if Shen Tang could bear this tone, how would he mess around in the future?If it gets out, what do outsiders think of her?

Is she shameless?
How long can you survive at a young age?
Gu Chi: "..."

Although he wanted to say that the matter was not that serious, Lu Jue rushed back all the way, and there was no trace of fighting on his body, which shows that the situation at that time was not tense.Chu Yao is not a benevolent person who will suffer, and he must have thought about being detained honestly.

The lord thought of him as miserable and weak...

Alas, a little jealousy.

Except for that gray hair, how does Chu Yao look like an old man?

"Even if you want to go, you have to take everyone with you. Otherwise, even the lord will be detained, what should we do?" As a mind-reading expert, Gu Chi naturally wants to speak to the lord, but he can't be too obvious that he is gathered by his colleagues. Huo, he suggested, "Why don't you let Chi and Xiandeng follow the Lord, and then order a thousand people to go there?"

Why him and Jiang Sheng?

He can read minds, and Jiang Sheng has a literary palace.

Advance can be negotiated, retreat can fight.

Yuanliang and Jishou stayed to watch the house.

Shen Tang made a final decision: "Okay, let's do it like this!"

The two sang together, leaving no room for Qishan to intervene or stop him. The latter's complexion turned blue, and he wished to stare Gu Chi to death with his eyes.As a newcomer, Jiang Sheng has always adhered to the principle of seeing more, doing more and talking less, and he does not have an advantage in speaking.

Qi Shan was "isolated and helpless" in public opinion, so he could only hold his nose and agree, but he had one and only one request!
Shen Tang said: "Yuan Liang, tell me!"

Under Jiang Sheng's puzzled gaze, Qishan put out three jars of spirits and said, "Bring them!"

Jiang Sheng: "???"

Is this Zhuang Xingjiu? ? ?
Gu Chi: "..."

My lord is really about to drink...

That was a real fight.

Shen Tang: "..."

Without any hesitation, he packed the wine directly, ordered thousands of people to bring Yu Zi, which Chu Yao had named to bring, and set off without stopping.To be on the safe side, she also took Xian Yujian away, and Lu Jue stayed to watch the house after he was tired all the way.

Yu Zi didn't know what this had to do with her.

But still silently rode to keep up.

In the wilderness, more than a thousand people and horses galloped under the starry sky, and the horseshoes crossed the wild grass without stopping for a moment.

Except for a few war horses that are real live horses (live mules), the rest are all transformed by Xianyu Jianwuqi.

There are two Wenxin scribes by their side, and they don't worry about running out of martial energy. The speed of the imperial horse is like the wind, and it takes less time than Lu Jue to rush back.Along the way, Jiang Sheng felt that both thighs were not his, and his old waist was sore from the bumps.

There is only one thing left in my mind that I can't figure out.

What is the use of Qi Yuanliang's wine?

Gu Chi: "..."

The counselor he thought: conspiracy, conspiracy, conspiracy!
Counsellor in reality: enemy, enemy, enemy...

(╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻

Finally, we arrived before sunset on the second day.

Shen Tang looked at the watchtower with a vicious face, bit the wine bag wine seal sideways, and poured all the spicy spirits into his mouth, because he drank too fast, he even choked on a mouthful.

Jiang Sheng didn't miss this detail, but——

He only saw the hero Haomai throwing the wine bag back, looking at the sentry tower with sharp eyes, with a serious expression on his face.

Then?

Then it's gone, this wine is really bold!
Yonggu Pass stands at the end of the line of sight.

After a while, patrol soldiers came out to greet them.

Shen Tang said: "Lead the way!"

Seeing that the person giving orders was a young boy, the soldiers were a little surprised, but they didn't dare to say more.

Always close your feet.

The general and others have received the news.

"So fast?"

The general was a little surprised. According to his estimation with Master Yu, there should be more than a day's journey, but he didn't expect that the other party would arrive early, and asked, "How many people did the other party bring?"

The soldier said: "About a thousand people by visual inspection."

The general smiled and said, "Thousands of people? How dare a thousand people come here?"

But he soon stopped laughing.

Because Chu Yao heard that the lord was coming, he quickly closed the net and slaughtered his dragon, so there was no suspense about the outcome of the chessboard.

With a look of joy on his face: "Wen Shi, come with me to meet the lord."

"only."

He couldn't wait to get up.

In a blink of an eye, the two disappeared.

The master general looked at the chessboard and sighed.

"Let's go! Let's go and see that Shen Jun, what a dragon and a phoenix, can make the 'Three Heroes of Chu' also give up their hearts."

The main general was also aroused a bit of curiosity.

He rode out on horseback with Master Yu and several others to meet him.

He knew that Shen Tang was young, but he didn't know how young until he saw him. The other party rode a stupid mule and dismounted to meet Chu Yao.This was supposed to be a touching picture of "the monarch and his ministers get each other", but Shen Tang grabbed Chu Yao's wrist and pulled him behind him, his eyes met the general's sight without timidity, his eyes were cold, and the air in his hands was surging into a sword.

The tip of the sword pointed at the general, and the opening of his mouth was a question.

"You are the one who detained me?"

And Chu Yao——

He smelled the strong aroma of wine.

Chu Yao: "???"
