At the end of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 338 Disrespectful Disrespect
The setting sun seems to have ignited the clouds in the sky, and it is fiery red. Although the night is about to fall, the heat is hard to dissipate. The sky and the earth are like a huge steamer, and the world is suffering in it. The farmland on both sides of the official road can be seen with large cracks In the continuous fields, only the tenacious weeds are growing crazily, and a few wild dogs are hiding in the dark grass and gnawing unknown bones.

Desolation, desolation, desolation—this is what Gao Bufan saw the most during his journey south from Zhuo County.

The consequences of Yang Guang's disastrous defeat in the Eastern Conquest of Goguryeo last year finally emerged this year, and it is still gradually fermenting, constantly eroding the foundation of the Great Sui Dynasty, and slowly burying the Great Sui Guozuo!

Last year, when Yang Guang mobilized millions of troops in the eastward expedition to Goguryeo, including logistics personnel, the mobilized population was at least 3 million. This would undoubtedly have a huge impact on a feudal agricultural country with a population of only tens of millions. This in itself It means that a lot of fields will be abandoned, and the key point is that the war was lost, and millions of troops were lost in Liaodong!
The population has dropped sharply, the fields have been barren, and food is scarce. The war has also consumed a lot of social wealth. Guang turned a blind eye to this and insisted on launching the second Eastern Expedition. It can be said that the current Sui Dynasty is already dying!

Gao Bufan went all the way south, feeling inexplicably heavy, everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world, and under the rolling wheel of history, no one can be alone, either for the sake of chaos, or for the troubled times to make waves!

drive……

The big green horse's strong four hooves beat the ground vigorously, and the dust and smoke all the way climbed the mountains, crossed the valleys, jumped over the streams, and galloped like flowing clouds.From Zhuojun to Liyang, it was about [-] miles along the canal, and three days should be enough for a big green horse. Now Gao Bufan has entered the boundary of Anyang County in Weijun, and he will arrive in Liyang County tomorrow morning.

At this time, the big green horse rushed to the turning of a mountain depression, and a black line suddenly appeared in front of him, which was clearly a tripping rope blocking the road.This tripping rope was set in a very shady way, just at the turn of the col, and the weeds blocked the view. When the horseman found it, it was too late.

Fortunately, Gao Bufan is not an ordinary person, and the big green horse is not an ordinary horse. Gao Bufan has quick hands and eyes, and he suddenly lifted the reins. Immediately, there were a few vulgar words such as "Fucking" and "Niniang's" in the middle of the room, and then an arrow shot towards him.

Gao Bufan's eyes flashed, and he rolled off his horse with a plop, and the big green horse stopped with a long hiss. This time, there was a burst of cheers from the grass, and someone complimented loudly: "Master Hong is good at archery!"

In the twilight, I saw a dozen thieves jumping out from the grass forest, each holding a single knife, looking fierce, obviously thieves who robbed the way, the equipment is quite good, at least one Single-handed swords, some of them brought bows and arrows, the leader was about [-] years old, wrapped in a gray cloth turban, holding a short bow triumphantly, swaggered as he walked, and looked like he didn't recognize his relatives.

"Go, bring that green horse over to me!" the man with the short bow crossed his waist and ordered, a minion immediately ran forward and was about to pull the rein, but was bitten by the big green horse Picking up his shoulder, he threw it aside viciously, causing the creature to groan in pain, and scrambled away.

"Master Hong, this green horse has a strong temper!" the thieves exclaimed in shock.

The short-bow man was not surprised but said happily: "The stronger the temper, the better the horse. You see, this big green horse is very handsome. I have never seen such a superb horse. It runs like a gust of wind. If it weren't for my arrow skills Well, maybe let this kid escape, um, this kid can afford to ride such a handsome mount, he must be a fat sheep, and he must have a lot of valuable things on him, Ge Laosan, go and look for this kid. "

The thief named Ge Laosan immediately rushed towards Gao Bufan eagerly, and when he saw the latter was shot by an arrow in the chest, lying there motionless, he put away his sword and said with a smile: "Master Hong is really accurate, this kid pierced through it with one arrow." Xin, I have already sold salted duck eggs in the Yan Luo Temple, but unfortunately, if they are captured alive and brought back to the village, they can be used as a son of a rabbit to vent the anger of the brothers!"

Hey, when this old man Ge saw how handsome Gao Dashao was, with red lips and white teeth, he felt "pity for the fragrance and cherish the jade".Gao Bufan was so disgusted that he couldn't continue acting immediately, just as Ge Laosan was about to reach out to touch him, he flew up and kicked him in the face.

Ge Laosan screamed and flew out, his face was covered in blood, seven or eight teeth were knocked out, and his nose collapsed, it was not an ordinary tragedy.

The thieves were taken aback, Gao Bufan stood up under the horrified eyes of the thieves, casually threw away the sharp arrow stuck in his chest, stretched his waist in a leisurely manner and said: "The arrow shot by that bastard is too rubbish. You don't think you're strong enough to tickle me?"

The shortbow man's complexion changed slightly, and then he flew into a rage: "The boy is impatient, isn't he, dare to entertain your Master Hong? Brothers, let's chop him up together!"

The man with the short bow was obviously not stupid, Gao Bufan was able to catch sharp arrows with his bare hands, and his ability was obviously very good, he alone might not be his opponent, so he decisively ordered the group to fight, this bandit was too ignorant of martial arts.

"Boy looking for death!"

"Straight thief!"

"Crappie!"

"Chop his grandma!"

The thieves snarled, rushed up fiercely, and greeted Gao Bufan single-handedly. Facing such a group of rubbish, Gao Bufan didn't even bother to pull out his sword. It is inevitable.

The man with a short bow looked at the crowd of mourners, and finally realized that he had kicked the iron plate today, and while stepping back, he said sternly: "Boy, don't think that being able to punch and kick is a big deal, our Wagang Village is also a master. Yun, if you dare to touch a hair of my Zhai Hong, I guarantee that you won't be able to get out of Weijun's territory!"

Gao Bufan's heart moved, and he said: "Are you a hero from Wagang? Your surname is Zhai? Then what does Zhai Rang have to do with you?"

The man with a short bow lifted his spirits when he heard the words: "Zhai Rang is the head of the Wagang village, and I am the eldest brother of the head of the family, Zhai Hong!"

The man with the short bow patted his chest with a haughty look on his face!
Gao Bufan couldn't help laughing and said: "So it's Uncle Zhai, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

Seeing Gao Bufan's friendly attitude, Zhai Hong became more courageous, and said with a straight face, "Your boy...cough, what's your name?"

"In Xiayi County, Gao Bufan is named Changqing!" Gao Bufan smiled.

"Gao Changqing of Yin County, why does this name sound familiar?" Zhai Hong frowned and said.

Gao Bufan clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Excuse me, your colleague Zhang Jin said he was the one who slaughtered you!"

Zhai Rang's complexion changed drastically, and he slashed at Gao Bufan's head with a slash!
