After the imperial examinations, I grew up by farming

Chapter 50 Fake soldiers and real bandits

People fear death, especially the rich.The short general snorted coldly, sat back on the folding chair, and said in a disdainful tone, "Say. If you fail to satisfy this general, I will be the first to chop off your head."

Holding Wang Bo in his hand but only asking for a ransom of 100 million taels, it shows that his vision is narrow.Greedy, short-sighted, and blunt, Ning Yu puts a label on the short man, and has a well-thought-out plan for rescuing Xu Ningwen.

"A few months ago, the Xu family borrowed a boat from the Water Transportation Department of Chongqing Municipality, which cost 500 million taels; last year, the Xu family donated 250 million taels for the floods along the Wangling River; the snowstorm the year before last...

"General, a million taels of silver is a huge amount that is unattainable for ordinary people, but for the Xu family, it is a small amount of money."

He was born in a poor military family, and his status in the army was not high. The most money a short man has seen is 100 million taels in front of him.

100 taels needs more than a dozen boxes, 1000 taels, 2000 million taels...

How many cars would it take to pull it?
Shangfeng sent him to escort the grain and grass to the front line, but the people of Yongping Hou broke into the camp late at night, and the grain and grass of 10 horses and horses for two months were burned to nothing. Although some rice was robbed, compared with the burned It's a drop in the ocean, and you will definitely be questioned when you go back.

Perhaps he had accumulated virtue in his previous life, and accidentally captured the richest man in Sichuan. One million taels might keep him alive. If he brought back a mountain of silver, he would not only be safe, but the general might introduce him to the prince.

Don't you just come to make contributions and make great achievements.

After thinking about it, the short man managed to get himself excited.

After all, he has been on the battlefield to face life and death. Although his heart was itchy, he was not overwhelmed, but his attitude towards Ning Yu was quite polite.

"Who are you, Xu Ningwen?"

Only now did I remember to ask, the reflex arc was long enough, Ning Yu said neither humble nor overbearing: "It's my brother."

"Oh~" The short man sighed meaningfully, "It's brotherly love. In your opinion, how much money can buy your brother's life and your own life?"

"Life is precious and priceless." The voice was not loud, but it was extremely weighty, which made people awe-inspiring.

Hehe, the ignorant merchants, scholars, peasants, businessmen, and stinkers who are enjoying peace and prosperity, dare to say that they are priceless, it is really shameless.Since he is so afraid of death, don't blame him for not speaking up.

The short man raised his head, "This general wants your entire Xu family property."

If he really dared to ask for it, Ning Yu agreed without hesitation, "Yes!"

The answer is so straightforward, but it is surprising. Most merchants are stingy and save their money, and there are not many people who want money or life.Afraid of Ning Yu's deceit, the short man's tone was as cold as ice, "Are you willing?"

"I said before that brother's life is priceless. As long as he can be rescued, the Xu family is willing to pay any price."

Perseverance and determination came along with the clear and neat voice, which made people treat it with dignity.

The short man stared silently at the thin figure in the dark for a long time, and finally let go, "Putting all your wealth into armaments can be regarded as devotion to the great cause of the prince. This general promises you that as long as the Xu family cooperates, you and your brother will be fine."

Just kidding, the Xu family has deep roots in Sichuan and has a lot of connections with many high-level military officials. No matter how stupid he is, he will not be so stupid as to let the tiger go back to the mountain.

When they get the money, they will abduct Xu Ningwen, threaten Xu's family and the death of Xu Ningwen's brothers on Yongpinghou.

And he was the hero who avenged Xu Ningwen and regained a large amount of wealth.

As for the subordinates who participated today, if you give them enough incentives, and sue Shangfeng for violating the military law by leapfrogging, who will stand up for the dead?
"Thank you, General." There was no military flag erected in the camp, and when the short man mentioned the prince, Ning Yu finally confirmed that this group of people was under the command of King Shuyun.

"Bring Xu Ningwen up." The short man waved.

Not long after, Xu Ningxuan appeared following two soldiers, his gaze casually swept over a dozen servants.

"Big brother!" Ning Yu jumped in front of Xu Ningwen in two steps.

More than a dozen servants also surrounded him, pushing the two soldiers out of the crowd, "Young master!"

The short man frowned, and was about to speak, but saw a black shadow flying out of his servant, approaching like lightning, before his brain could react, his throat had already been strangled.

Almost at the same time, two knives struck his shoulder joints, and there were only two crisp "crack" sounds, and the severe pain hit, and the two arms were like two rags hanging on his shoulders, dislocated and broken.

The threat of death came with a sense of suffocation.

"General!"

The soldiers in the camp quickly gathered and surrounded Ning Yu and the others.

"Whoever dares to move rashly, I will crush his neck." Yan Shi, who was disguised as a servant, shouted coldly, and lifted the short man off the ground with his neck choked.

All of a sudden, none of the soldiers dared to step forward with their weapons raised, and the two sides were in a deadlock.

The night is dark and the wind is high, the short man's mouth is wide open and his pupils are protruding in the air. The picture is so beautiful that it may induce nightmares. Ning Yu pointed at the short man and looked at Yan Shi——

I'm dying!
The fingers stuck in the flesh loosened, and the short man fell to the ground panting heavily, and only heard "clang", the saber at his waist was pulled out and placed on his neck.

Xu Ningwen saw the person holding the knife clearly, and looked at Xu Ningcheng, who was also pretending to be a writer, with a reproachful face.

"Big brother, I volunteered to come here on my own initiative. I am a soldier now." Not wanting the big brother to reprimand the second brother, Xu Linpeng roared with pride.

"Fifth Sister is very powerful." Ning Yu chimed in.

Then he looked at the short man, guessing that he was almost able to speak, and said in an orderly tone: "Let the rest go!"

Xu Linpeng lifted the knife cooperatively, and the blade cut a shallow cut on the short man's neck. The short man, who was still struggling a second ago, woke up instantly, and ordered in a hoarse voice, "Let me go!"

After a while, Xu Zhuang and others were brought up.

When they were robbed, due to the large number of opponents, Xu Zhuang and Xu Ningqi evaluated the situation and surrendered decisively, so Xu Zhuang and others were not injured.

"I am Chen Wushu, the cavalry general under King Shuyun's command. If you kill me, the prince will definitely not let it go."

As he spoke, the short man glanced at Yan Yan fearfully.

This person's skills are unpredictable, and he has been battle-tested for a long time, but he was subdued before he even had time to react. Now he only hopes that the other party will be concerned about the prince and leave quickly with food and money.

No one paid attention to his threat, Ning Yu said coldly: "Tell them to put down their weapons, retreat twenty feet, and turn their backs!"

Seeing that the other party didn't buy it, the short man had no choice but to follow suit and ordered him to disarm and turn around.

Xu Linpeng knocked the short man unconscious, and then Xu Ningcheng ordered someone to light the main tent.

The night was thick and the flames were burning into the sky. The soldiers with red belts hiding on the mountainside looked like nimble monkeys jumping off the treetops or rock walls, holding iron and wood mixed weapons, and rushing into the camp, filling the originally spacious camp. It's full.

After half an hour.

The short man with broken arms and legs was woken up by his subordinates.

"General, this is a bunch of bandits!" The subordinate said angrily.

They robbed their horses and weapons, stripped their armor and pockets, and even their shirts. More than 2000 people, including the general, were left with only a pair of underpants, and their tents were taken down. The most annoying thing Yes, even the pots, pans and earthen bowls they used for cooking were confiscated.

The bandits did nothing so amazing!
It's not that they don't want to resist, but the number of opponents, 1 people are less, plus there is no general order...

It doesn't matter, a man can bend and stretch, and it's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years.

On the other side, the Nanli soldiers who won the first battle were trotting in the night with their trophies on their shoulders. Xu Linpeng had a question that he couldn't figure out, "Xiao Qi, why don't we just fight in with so many of us?"

Except for the eldest brother, those who went to transport food were all masters of Lianjiazi, and they would definitely win if they cooperated with each other inside and outside.

Even going to great lengths to go deep into the enemy's camp, if the enemy's leader is not held hostage, wouldn't he be shut down and beaten?

"Fifth sister, if you are in a hurry, you will jump over the wall, and don't forget..."

Ning Yu looked at the marching team who were laughing and chatting, "They are all civilians, and every arm and every life is precious."

Yan Shi, who was two horses away, slowed down and looked at Ning Yu who was chatting with his family from behind.

The night wind blew away the unconscious smile on his lips.
