Chapter 925 Reinforcement arrives

Chapter 925 Reinforcement arrives
Not to mention how chaotic the city of Xi'an was, let's say that after Zhang Shun returned to Liu's camp, after training his soldiers every day, he ordered them to go to the mountains to collect wood.

Woodcutter mining is not simply chopping wood, but picking dry branches and trees as much as possible for burning and cooking.

Like those normal-growing branches, if they are cut off, they need to be dried for a long time before they can be used. If they are used to make firewood, it is really time-consuming and not worth the candle.

The rebels had worked hard in Japan for the past two days, and wanted to rest for a few days, but Zhang Shun came to torment them again, complaining a lot.

There were a lot of dissuaders on the left and right, Zhang Shun couldn't help laughing and said: "There is resentment in my heart, most likely because the price has not been negotiated. Since the soldiers have worked so hard, all the money earned and food will be distributed to the soldiers according to the amount of effort."

Sure enough, these people were very happy to hear that.Different from various 996s in later generations, manpower is worthless in this era, but there are very few jobs that can earn money.

Don't look at the simple matter of woodcutter picking. In many cities, it is still a business monopolized by three religions and nine streams.

Wouldn't it be nice to be able to make some money after the war now?

"His Royal Highness Shun, if we don't fight a good battle, how can we start a small business?" He Renlong felt a little ashamed and couldn't help complaining.

"What small business? In addition to fighting and killing, you also fight for logistics and food. No matter how tough you are, if you don't eat for three days, a three-year-old child can kill you!" Zhang Shun sneered, "Xi'an There are different opinions in the city, but if there is a petty profit, they will flock to it, how can they be undefeated?"

"Zuo Guang in the city is nothing to be afraid of. What I worry about is Liang Tingdong, the governor of the three sides. Once his army arrives, the victory or defeat is still unknown."

"It's better to be prepared and take the lead to lay down a son, waiting for the opportunity to fight!"

After hearing this, He Renlong didn't seem to understand, so he couldn't ask any more questions, so he retreated in embarrassment.

Now the two sides have traded for another three to five days, and a lot of rice has been exchanged.

Some strong and capable people are overjoyed to get a stone of grain in return.

That day Zhang Shun was inquiring about the situation in Xi'an city, and someone had already come to report: "General, there is a group of people outside, about two to three thousand people."

"There are two people in the lead, called 'Scorpion Block' and 'Huntian Star' respectively. They say they are brothers from the Yi Army, and they come to see King Shun."

"Oh, is there really someone here?" Zhang Shun issued the hero order for half a month, but the result was like a mud cow sinking into the sea, and there was no news. Unexpectedly, there was finally a movement.

It turned out that after the "Scorpion Block" Tuo Yangkun and the "Huntian Star" Hui Dengxiang were defeated by the governor of the three sides Liang Tingdong, they originally wanted to coerce the writers and prepare for a comeback.

As a result, several villages were attacked in a row, many brothers were injured, and food and grass were not raised much. Basically, the gain outweighed the loss.

Coupled with the disaster in Shaanxi last year, the grain production dropped sharply, the big city of "Xiongkuai" and "Huntianxing" could not be conquered, and the small village had no oil and water, and life was hard to survive.

The two had no choice, and were afraid that Liang Tingdong, the governor of the three sides, would pursue him, so they decided to go to Xi'an and join Zhang Shunlai together.

After Zhang Shun got the notification, he led Wukong, Wang Jinyi, Chen Changzhu and others to greet him.

"Scorpion Block" Tuo Yangkun and "Huntian Star" Hui Dengxiang had never met Zhang Shun, and although there were high and low ranks among the rebel army, the etiquette was not obvious.

When they saw Chen Changzhu, they couldn't help saluting, "It's really ashamed to surprise King Shun to greet him in person!"

Chen Changliang was startled immediately, turned sideways quickly, and stretched out his hand to signal: "This is King Shun!"

The two looked up, only to see a tall, strange-looking young man walking in square steps, looking at them with lightning eyes and a half-smile.

The two secretly thought that they were blind. Although the man in front was tall and strong with a good appearance, compared with the young man in front of him, he was really a firefly competing with a bright moon.

The two hurriedly stepped forward to salute and said, "Greetings to King Shun, I'm deaf and blind, so much so that we made a joke!"

"It's okay, it's okay, the two of you have come all the way, and you must be tired. And settle the soldiers, let me clean up the dust for you!" Zhang Shun didn't care much about this, and couldn't help laughing.

Since "Scorpion Block" and "Huntian Xing" dared to come to see Zhang Shun, they naturally had already settled down their soldiers.

It is said to be a reception banquet, but in fact, it is quite simple to go out.

Except for a few jars of good wine, they just killed a few pigs and sheep, a few game, and a few fruits and vegetables.

Fortunately, Gao Guiying is also an expert in the kitchen, personally directing a few firemen, cooking cold, hot, soup, and noodles, which looks quite rich.

The "Scorpion Pieces" and "Huntianxing" hadn't eaten a full meal for several days, and suddenly they ate and drank like hungry wolves.

He Renlong, Bai Guangen, He Jin, and Wu Kong present couldn't help laughing, but Zhang Shun gave him a glare, and then they all became honest.

It was so easy to eat seven or eight percent full, and the banquet table, which was originally full of color, fragrance, had long since become a mess.

The "Scorpion Block" and "Huantian Xing" are also the leaders of one side, people who want face.

Knowing that they had lost their skin, they couldn't help but blushed and said in embarrassment: "We brothers haven't had a stable meal for a few days, so I made a few jokes!"

"All brothers in the world, whoever comes is a guest. In the world, there is only the reason that the host's hospitality is not good. How can the host dislike the guests' eating and drinking?" Zhang Shun couldn't help laughing.

"What's more, since the rebels raised their troops, it's only natural to help each other, so why be so polite?"

"Scorpion Block" and "Huntian Xing" were also a little moved when they heard the words, and they couldn't help but clasped their hands and said, "Although we have heard that King Shun is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness, we still have doubts."

"Now that I can see King Shun, I know that thousands of words from outsiders are not enough to meet King Shun in person!"

"The two of us were poor and lacked horses, lacked food and wages, and had nowhere to go. We originally planned to come and join forces with King Shun."

"Unexpectedly, King Shun has a strong army and a lot of food and grass. How dare we mention this matter? If King Shun is willing to take us in, even if there are mountains of swords and fire, brothers frown are not good men!"

"It's serious, it's serious!" Zhang Shun smiled, his mouth almost cracked behind his ears, and he quickly replied, "If you two are willing to listen to my orders, I will naturally not treat you brothers badly."

"However, let's talk about an ugly word first. If you two want to join forces, we have to follow the joint venture method; if you two want to rely on me, Zhang Shun, then you have to follow the method of seeking refuge."

"Otherwise, we will be entangled in the future, which will ruin the brotherhood!"

"This..." These two people originally wanted to fool around, to trick the food and grass into their hands.It's just that Zhang Shun made this point clear, and the two of them hesitated a bit.

The two of you looked at me and I looked at you, and after a while they asked: "What is joint venture, and what is refuge?"

"The so-called joint venturers, if they agree, they will gather together, and if they don't agree, they will leave. There is no distinction between master and servant. I can provide the two with food and grass, and the two of you also need to follow my orders. After the business here is over, everyone will go their separate ways. .”

"The so-called refuge, the division of masters and ministers is fixed. Food, clothing, housing and other supplies, whoever has others, you have. There are meritorious rewards, and there are punishments."

"Those who are capable go up, and those who are foolish go down. Whatever position an official occupies, he will do what he does; whatever position he occupies, he will take any responsibility, that's all!"

"The two of us are used to being carefree, and we can't be restrained. I would like to join forces with King Shun. Is it possible?" "Xiongkuai" and "Huntianxing" couldn't help but hesitated for a moment when they heard the words, and asked tentatively.

"Yes!" Zhang Shun nodded upon hearing this.And it's better to say the ugly things first, than to testify freely about the relationship between the two parties, so that they turn their faces in the end.
