Han Hai Tang Ergui

Chapter 58

"It turned out that Mr. Zhang Erlang was in person. He has offended me so much today, so I am willing to pay a ransom!"

Perhaps because he felt that his life was safe for the time being, Di Luoda, who was behind the soldiers of the Chen family, finally returned to his IQ. He cupped his hands at Zhang Zhao and shouted loudly in the crowd, using his authentic Dunhuang accent.

At this time, the fighting has basically stopped everywhere. Fanshun and Fanquan have already led people to occupy the high walls on both sides, and locked up this group of people. As long as Zhang Zhao gives an order, they can attack. Although casualties are inevitable, the servants The defeat of Gu Jun and others is set.

"One thousand guan! Someone is willing to give [-] guan, plus [-] bolts of Gaochang white cotton cloth!" Seeing that he was in danger of being killed at any time, Pu Gujun couldn't care less about anything, and hurriedly yelled out.

One thousand strings, this is not a small amount!We must know that when Zhang Zhao left, Cao Yijin used an excuse to redeem what he did to Zhang Chengfeng back then, but he only gave Zhang Zhao 3000 taels of silver collar, which is about three thousand taels.

Gaochang white cotton cloth is even better, warm, soft and strong, and the value of a piece is close to two.

This is an income of [-] to [-] guan, and Yan Jin, Ma Yaozi and others around him all showed satisfied expressions, waiting for Zhang Zhao to agree.

As for Pugu Jun in the crowd, fifteen or six hundred guan is worth it. The dozens of well-trained soldiers of the Chen family alone cannot be measured by money. No warrior who can go to battle to kill the enemy is worth anything.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Zhao agreed. He originally wanted to test the troops, and he had to supply fresh water in Puchanghai. In the end, he just wanted to fish for something.

As for the North-South dispute between Gaochang Uighurs and Guiyi Army on the Silk Road, he can't control it, and he can't solve it.

"Okay! The price agrees, Di Luoda is worth the price for you, but who can guarantee that you can still get the money if I let you go?"

You must know that the Kaiyuan Tongbao of the Tang Dynasty weighed about six catties and forty liang, and one thousand guan was six thousand four hundred catties, which weighed three tons.

It is impossible for Pu Gucheng to come to Puchanghai with such money, and it is even more impossible for Zhang Zhao to wait here. Not to mention how to transport it to Khotan, who knows whether the money and white cotton cloth or the army of Gaochang Uighurs will come later?
"There is no evidence for what you say, and someone needs to be a surety!" Guarantors are very popular in this era. In an era without checks and remittances, credit is often relied on.

Zhang Zhao rolled his eyes, and suddenly thought of a sinister note, he pointed at Chen Huiyao and shouted.

"Since Brother Chen is loyal to protect the Lord, I will give you a face. As long as Brother Chen can guarantee the ransom, the two families can immediately make peace."

One thousand guan and three hundred bolts of white cotton cloth, Zhang Zhao believed, even if Pu Gucheng on the opposite side belonged to the Gaochang Uighur royal family, that would be a considerable amount of wealth.

This will be to save his life, of course he will be willing to do everything, but if there is no threat of life in the future, it is not certain whether he is willing to pay so much.

That's why Zhang Zhao asked Chen Huiyao to be the guarantor, and Pugu Cheng kept his promise, so Zhang Zhao would get a lot of money.

If Pu Gucheng is unwilling to pay for the pain, or if he is unwilling to pay so much, then Chen Huiyao will definitely be implicated.

So what will happen to the relationship between the two in the future?Cracks are inevitable!
When they return from Khotan in the future, maybe they can really abduct the Chen family from Yizhou, and they may even find a way to seize Yizhou.

Chen Huiyao understood a little bit of Zhang Zhao's thoughts, but he had no choice but to look back at Pu Gucheng.

At this time, of course, Pu Gucheng would not have the thought of feeling sorry for his belongings. If people are gone, there is still time to think about other things, so he quickly sent a sincere look to Chen Huiyao.

"It's only [-] to [-] guan, so someone can afford it!" Pu Gucheng shouted.

"That's good! A certain Chen Huiyao, hereby thank Mr. Erlang for his benevolence, and the wealth that will be redeemed will definitely be sent to Mr. Erlang!"

Satisfied, Zhang Zhao beckoned, and the injured Wu Yuan'er's elder brother Wu Da'er stepped forward.

Originally Cao Yijin was going to send his younger brother Wu Yuan'er to Gaochang as an envoy, but now Wu Yuan'er didn't know if he could save his life, so he had to let Wu Da'er go and bring back the [-] guan that belonged to Zhang Zhao .

Although Wu Da'er was the envoy of the Guiyi Army, these days, especially after Zhang Zhao rescued his younger brother Wu Yuan'er, Wu Da'er already respected Zhang Zhao very much, and he sang to Zhang Zhao.

"A certain brother has troubled Mr. Erlang to take care of him. If he goes to Gaochang, he will not disgrace his life!"

. . . .

Outside the ancient city of Loulan, the area of ​​Puchang Lake has shrunk to about the same size as the artificial lake Zhang Zhao saw in a certain luxurious villa complex. Can't live in people.

After a great battle last night, more than [-] people brought by Di Luoda Gan Pu Gucheng killed more than [-] people in battle, and the rest were brought back by Pu Gucheng, but except for the soldiers of the Chen family, their clothes Both armor and weapons became Zhang Zhao's trophies.

There were also casualties on Zhang Zhao's side. Four of them were seriously injured plus Wu Yuan'er. A total of five people were still in danger. Three of the 40 people had minor injuries of varying degrees, so Zhang Zhao could only take a risk here and choose to rest for a day.

As for the captives, there were about [-] Canwei women left, and about [-] people from Mahashd and Arododuo were also disarmed and guarded.

At this time, several bonfires were lit, and the remaining Canwei women were killing sheep and cooking corn for lunch.

"Mr. Erlang! Mr. Erlang, come quickly, Huo Sheng'er is going to die!" Just as Zhang Zhao was washing the blood off his body, Ma Yaozi ran over yelling.

Hearing the news, Zhang Zhao didn't care about cleaning up, and hurried to the temporary 'hospital' he set up.

Huo Sheng'er is a soldier in his twenties. He has no surname, and he doesn't know who his parents are. He was picked up by a Huo Shouchang Army soldier outside the barracks, so he got the nickname Huo Sheng'er. The name means the common son of the fire soldiers.

When Zhang Zhao entered, Huo Sheng'er miraculously sat up, and was still asking Yan Jin next to him for grilled lamb ribs, with an unhealthy ruddy glow on his face.

Zhang Zhao was not overjoyed, but instead his face darkened, this is a flashback!

"Lieutenant, you are here! Look, my injuries are fine, and I can still follow the captain to kill the enemy!"

Huo Sheng'er pointed to a large bloody place between his chest and abdomen, and looked at Zhang Zhao pleadingly, but his tone was a little weak, and he seemed to be afraid that Zhang Zhao would leave him behind.

Zhang Zhao walked over lightly, and put a piece of sackcloth on Huo Sheng'er's chest and abdomen, covering the wound.

"I saw it! Your injury will heal soon. I will wait for you. When you go to Khotan with me, I will marry you a young lady orchid!"

Huo Sheng'er hurried back to hold Zhang Zhao's hand, his expression was even more joyful, "I knew that Mr. Xiaowei Langjun is a good official, but"

After finishing speaking, Huo Sheng'er suddenly backed down, and his face began to turn pale rapidly.

"But... so-and-so hasn't found a mother-in-law yet, and doesn't know what her last name is? If she marries a girl named Hu Ji, what should her name be when she gives birth to a son? It can't be called Huo!"

Zhang Zhao leaned over gently, and held Huo Sheng'er's hand tightly, feeling unspeakably uncomfortable in his heart.

"Why don't brothers take a certain surname! A certain family was born in Nanyang, and it is also a famous family!"

When Huo Sheng'er heard what Zhang Zhao said, he suddenly cheered up a lot, and his eyes widened.

"Really? Pu also has the right to be surnamed Zhang?"

"Yes! Huo Zhe Mingliang! How about you call Zhang Zhao! Not only can you be named Zhang, but Mr. Erlang will find you a child who has no parents in Dunhuang and let him inherit your incense. For meritorious service in the First World War, you will be rewarded with money three times, and recorded three poems, all of which will be passed on to your son."

"Erlang-jun is benevolent! Brother Huo Sheng, Zhang Zhao, you can rest assured!" Yan Jin was beside Zhang Zhao and knelt down on one knee and said.

"Good! Very good...very!" Huo Sheng'er seemed to be struggling to get up and thank Zhang Zhao, but after struggling to move for a while, he fell straight down, tilted his head, and was silent.
