Legend of the Knight

Chapter 121 Infamy
Walk sixty miles a day, okay?
Can't it?
This is an extremely subtle distance, so subtle that it is like a company that leaves work on time at 5 pm every day. Suddenly, the boss personally informs that he has accepted a big order, and everyone will work overtime until 12 o'clock tonight.

People with empty hands and no weight can easily walk eight to ten miles in an hour, and it takes only half a day to walk sixty miles.

But just as commuting time isn't all about working, caravan time isn't all about traveling.

Because a large number of livestock replaced manpower, every time the caravan set off and rested, it took a lot of time to unload the livestock, feed them with water, and then people.

When people are full and rested, they have to start packing again, feeding livestock water and food, and loading goods.

Now Huang Xiaoshi proposes to directly double today's itinerary. In addition to speeding up the pace, Huang Xiaoshi also puts forward a rationalization idea: people will not rest at noon.

Can this method work?
Sure.

Because Huang Xiaoshi purposely increased Fuyu's transport capacity by 20% before, and after the load was reduced, walking at the speed of a human would not be tiring at all for the livestock.

Is it a good idea to sacrifice employees' rest to overload work?

It depends on how the benefits are.

If the company originally had less money but more troubles, most of the employees would kindly greet the boss's family's well-being after the boss's order.

But if the benefits are super good, and the boss originally gave you money for your life, then it really doesn't matter.

Three cups of coffee were poured down the stomach, and a shot of chicken blood was injected into the head. Everyone said boldly to each other: See you in the ICU.

Here comes the question, are the benefits of Shennong Baicaomen good?

That's good enough to buy a family's life.

And Lord Shi also said that since it is still close to Luoyang, those who don't want to go can climb by themselves, and don't even need to bring dry food. If you turn around in the morning, you can reach Luoyang in the afternoon.

So, does anyone want to go?

After Huang Xiaoshi left, Lao Wang called all the six team leaders under him, and then passed on Huang Xiaoshi's order intensified: "If one person in any team fails to fix it, the whole team will crawl back to Luoyang for me. Anyway, I can recruit people again when I arrive in Chang'an, there are plenty of them!

Did you hear me? "

……

Huang Xiaoshi made the caravan speed up not only to open Ji Wushuang's horizons, but more importantly, it was a stress test.

From Luoyang to Chang'an, it was originally a running-in period for the caravan.

During the running-in period, there are two running-in methods.

One is to take good care of it carefully, such as the first car in my life that I have saved for many years.It was so gentle that I wish I could put the car on my back and let it drive itself.

There is also a running-in method, which is a high-intensity test on the edge of the limit, which is called a baking machine.Under this kind of stress test, all the problems broke out at once, and then seized the time to rectify them immediately.

This business trip is by no means an easy journey.

Huang Xiaoshi needed to conduct a high-pressure test on his family's caravan, and all he paid was a little infamy.

What's more, it was not Huang Xiaoshi himself who was scolded.

……

Early the next morning, Gong Guangjie dispatched special negotiators to find their respective target leaders.

These congregants of the Dulong Cult did not gather together like Shennong Baicaomen, but each tribe formed an independent camp.

The reason for this is simple, because these tribes do not have centralized logistical support, and rely entirely on the rations brought by each tribe.

And these rations vary greatly, ranging from thick to thin, meat and vegetables.Therefore, in order not to take advantage of others (in fact, not to be taken advantage of by others), each family eats its own food.

It can also be seen from this that the key to war is logistical support, especially the issue of food supply.

This is also one of the reasons why Gong Guangjie asked Duolong to treat him to dinner.

Because Gong Guangjie calculated based on the information provided by Duolong, these tribes might not be able to eat food for the next ten days.

At this time, if Shennong Baicaomen sticks to it for a few more days, the opponent's people will run away.

From a tactical point of view, it is a great thing for the enemy to retreat without a fight.

But from a strategic point of view, it took so much effort to gather so many people, and if they dispersed, Gong Guangjie would go to the door one by one to find them.

Gong Guangjie, who seized the opportunity, opened up the situation in one fell swoop.

It's easy now, you just need to send people to find those leaders to finalize the specific agreement.

When Zhang Bing brought people over, he had already negotiated several templates of the contract, and now he only needs to discuss them in detail one by one.

On Yunling's side, Shennong Baicaomen also has the most favorable language advantage.

Yunling and Shuzhong have different voices, but if they speak slowly, both sides can probably understand them roughly.There is no need to find another company (interpreter), and the two parties can communicate directly. This is a great language advantage.

If you go to the Northwest, people from Shennong Baicaomen, if you talk too much, you will have to pay a price difference to the middleman. How much the other party can understand depends entirely on the mind and personal ability of the middle translator, and the uncontrollable factors are much larger.

After the people were dispatched, Gong Guangjie fell back on the bed with peace of mind.Last night's drink had had a bit of stamina, and now his skull hurts. (In fact, local winemaking can easily contain methanol)

Finally, Gong Guangjie slept until his head was pain free, and his mind could finally turn around, so he rolled over and got out of bed.

While lying on the bed, Gong Guangjie calculated that there would be fifteen leaders this time, and he thought he could win half of them no matter what, at least three or four.

When Gong Guangjie got out of the room and wandered around his camp a few times, and was about to have breakfast, he saw the people he sent back one after another.

"Hey, why are you muttering so quickly? How are you talking?" Gong Guangjie didn't feel very good.

Negotiations take a long time, which is not smooth.

Negotiation time is short, it is very smooth.

The negotiation time was abnormally short, something must have happened.

"What are you talking about? I haven't even entered the door." The doorman who was going to negotiate yelled at Gong Guangjie, "I haven't approached them yet, and they are yelling for me to go quickly. I tried to get closer while I was yelling, but I was shot by an arrow." Came over, almost on the back of my foot."

"What do you mean, them?" Gong Guangjie murmured to himself after hearing the report, then Gong Guangjie returned to the village, went to Duolong's door and knocked on the door while shouting, "Duolong, Duolong! "

Gong Guangjie didn't see Duolong this morning. Originally, he thought Duolong had a headache and was sleeping.Now Gong Guangjie felt that something was wrong, something was wrong.

After shouting a few times and no one answered, Gong Guangjie stretched out his hand and pushed open the door. The wooden bed covered with a thick layer of fur in the room was empty.

Last night, Duolong didn't come back.

Careless.

Gong Guangjie subconsciously wanted to call someone, but he forcibly resisted the urge.

Wait a minute, don't panic.

Gong Guangjie was trying his best to suppress the anxiety in his heart, he was thinking about what was going on.

Duolong didn't come back, but everything in Duolongzhai was as usual.If there is a big change, it can't be hidden. From the current situation, it should be Duolong who didn't come back.

But here's another problem.

This area is all the territory of Duolongzhai, including the place where they ate yesterday.

The territory of Duolongzhai means that it is under the control of Duolong.

The territory of Duolongzhai does not mean that Duolongzhai is the only place, but that Duolongzhai is the "administrative center" of this area, and it is the fortress where the headman Duolong lives.

The place where the members of the Dulong Cult now live scattered is also the residence of the Duolongzhai control area.Otherwise, it would be too wasteful to cut down trees to build a house and only live for more than ten days.If you don't live in a house and sleep in the open air, it's against your own life.

There are only a few hundred people in Duolongzhai, but it doesn't mean that there are only a few hundred people in Duolong's tribe.

There are only a few hundred tribes, which have long since disappeared into the long river of history and the high mountains of Yunling, and they will never survive today.

On Duolong's site, Shennong Baicaomen hid in Duolong Village, and the members of the Dulong Sect did not dare to attack Duolong Village, but only dared to surround it outside.

Therefore, when Li Yong fled into Duolongzhai with his people, the two sides were actually in a state of ceasefire and confrontation.

From this point of view, the members of the Poison Dragon Sect would never dare to touch Duolong, let alone hold him hostage by force, unless they wanted to force the Duolong tribe back for no reason.

Since it was not held hostage by force, Duolong hadn't returned home in this case, which means that Duolong was captured by words.

The only one who can hold Duolong with words is the Poisonous Dragon Cult.

Although the Poisonous Dragon Sect is a loose tribal alliance, it is the leading brother recognized by everyone after all.It is also only when the leading brother speaks, can Duolong not even return to his own village.

You must know that the headman's failure to return to the village is of the same nature as the emperor's failure to return to Beijing. It is an uncertain and unstable factor.

……

"You poor melon skin lady, she only knows how to do bad things to me." Thinking of this, Gong Guangjie was so angry that he cursed.

Seeing his sect master jumping into a rage, no one around dared to touch that bad luck.

After Gong Guangjie finished scolding the eighteen generations of Lan Ting's ancestors, he sat on the chair and took a breath.

The current situation does not mean that the meal last night was eaten in vain. The meal last night was still a great success.

At least, when the people from Shennong Baicaomen went to negotiate today, their arrows were shot towards their feet.

This is already a big concession.

After all, many things in the world cannot be settled just by talking about interests.

For many people, it doesn't make sense to talk about their interests.

There are some hard-headed people in this world, they just want to live a good life, but they insist on killing you (making trouble).

Gong Guangjie sat back on the recliner again, and he took out a carefully folded letter from his arms.

This is a letter Huang Xiaoshi sent to Gong Guangjie as soon as he heard that Shennong Baicaomen was going to Piandulongjiao. The core content is how to win Yunling. It is recommended to divide it into three steps:

One, set up your majesty.

Second, make a batch and pull a batch.

Three, get rid of the Dragon Cult.

When he received Huang Xiaoshi's letter, Gong Guangjie had already sent the deputy sect master to give gifts. He attached great importance to Huang Xiaoshi's suggestion, but Gong Guangjie himself still felt that it would be better to give gifts first.

It didn't take long for the bad news to come. The caravan that sent people to give gifts was robbed.

With Gong Guangjie's wisdom, he really couldn't figure out why he took it as a gift, when everyone would have something, and someone would grab it.Not only to rob, but also to kill.

After all, Gong Guangjie has been trapped in such a piece of land in the middle of Sichuan all his life. He can only understand what he has seen, so it is difficult for him to understand that there are other logics.

On the contrary, Huang Xiaoshi has seen too many such shabby things, so his first suggestion is to show his power.

After finally admitting that his group of cobblers together were not as good as Zhuge Liang like Huang Xiaoshi, Gong Guangjie immediately adjusted his strategy.

That's why Gong Guangjie sent Li Yong to kill indiscriminately. On the one hand, he wanted to take revenge and vent his anger, and on the other hand, he wanted to show his prestige.

When Li Yong was almost killed, Gong Guangjie personally led the team to Yunling to implement the second step of the plan, to fight a group and pull a group.

This step seems to be successful so far, and as expected, the situation was reversed in one fell swoop.

It's just that Gong Guangjie's highlight moment came last night. He was eager to skip the third step and pick the fruit directly.

Just when Gong Guangjie thought he could easily take down the Yunling tribe, something went wrong as expected.

Gong Guangjie picked up Huang Xiaoshi's letter and tapped it on his forehead.

Although Gong Guangjie couldn't read Chinese characters, he had asked someone to read this letter three or five times, and Gong Guangjie remembered every word clearly.

"To deal with the Poison Dragon Cult, there are three strategies.

The worst policy is to exterminate religion by force.Benefits, once and for all.

The middle strategy is to collude with the inside and outside to exclude Lan Ting.The downside is that there is a possibility of a second betrayal.

The best policy is to marry Lan Ting.The downside, don't tell your sister-in-law that it was my idea. "

Gong Guangjie found out that Huang Xiaoshi was really the reincarnation of Zhuge Wuhou, so his idea was right.

Yunling cannot be taken down unless the Dulong Cult is dealt with. In this three-step plan, every step is really indispensable.

Huang Xiaoshi has another sentence:

It doesn't matter whether you choose the three strategies of top, middle and bottom, the key is to be fast.Never hesitate.

Indeed, Gong Guangjie also discovered that after the first and second steps, Yunling's tribes had temporarily lost their synergy, and as long as they didn't take the initiative to provoke them, nothing would happen.

But this thing is not always okay, they are just waiting and watching, thinking, hesitating, and waiting.

This is the "time difference" that Huang Xiaoshi used to talk about.

Taking advantage of the time difference, this is a good time to concentrate firepower against the Poisonous Dragon Cult, which is what storytellers like to say "Soldiers are precious and quick is fast".

Gong Guangjie was lying on the recliner, thinking about Huang Xiaoshi's three strategies.

In these three strategies, Huang Xiaoshi only said half of what he said.

It's not that Huang Xiaoshi deliberately didn't tell the whole story, but that the other half of the consequences don't need to be repeated.

The benefit of destroying the Poisonous Dragon Sect by force is once and for all.

With the current force in Gong Guangjie's hands, it would definitely not be a problem to fight.The disadvantages are obvious. To fight a war, many people will be killed. Many members of the Dulong Cult will also be killed.

Not to mention the benefits of this middle policy.As long as Lan Ting is taken down and a person who listens to him comes to power, the Dulong Cult will be taken down.

But for Gong Guangjie, the biggest difficulty of this strategy is not whether he will encounter betrayal in the second day, but where he can find the internal response to make trouble.

This is hard work and meticulous work, and it may not be possible after a long time.

Well, there aren't many options left.

I heard that Lan Ting is a rare beauty.

Gong Guangjie, who was lying on the recliner, looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh.

There is really no way.

For my century-old project of Shennong Baicaomen, there is only a bitter woman.

Let me recite this infamy.
