City Marshal
Chapter 1334 1 Seeing the Blood
The rain is getting lighter and the wind is softening.
The sky was even a little clear when Chutian woke up. He sat up and glanced at the wall clock on the wall pointing at 10:30. I'm recovering as much as I need, so I need to rest more.
It's just what he said to Mortal and others, but it's just the opposite.
Sitting on the bed, Chu Tian was lucky enough to simply adjust the breath of the whole body, so that his strength would always be continuous and long, so that he could recover from the injury better. When he finished the breath adjustment and walked to the hall, Yang Feiyang was busy preparing lunch. After the day's light recuperation, Chutian can already eat delicacies with slightly higher energy.
It didn't take long for the food to be served.
In the center of the dining room is a square table with four wooden chairs scattered in a well-proportioned manner. On the table are tonight’s delicacies, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, crystal shrimp, braised eggplant, three-shredded buckwheat, homemade tofu, crispy whitebait, perch with pickled vegetables Soup, the unexpensive six dishes and one soup made Yang Feiyang cook the flavors of Zhejiang, Jiangsu and Shanghai.
Fang Qing, who came out of the room, was busy arranging the dishes.
Chu Tian came to the table and sighed softly: "It's a pity that there is no good wine for such delicious food!"
Fang Qing gently opened the wooden chair for him, put the cloth cushion on carefully, and said with a meaningful smile: "When you recover from your injury, we will give you good wine and food every day, but you can't drink today, otherwise the doctor You will get angry, you know, you are now his experimental product, and there must be no mistakes!"
Chu Tian was a little helpless, and replied with a wry smile: "It seems that I haven't had a drink for half a year!"
After Chutian was seated, Fang Qing served half a bowl of rice and half a bowl of soup for him, and at the same time reported the situation casually: "By the way, young commander, Zhan Tianxiang has gathered five hundred brothers to stand by, and we can meet you in the afternoon Go to Longfeng Villa."
"Fang Jun also called, and he will send 800 people to meet the young marshal!"
The corners of Chu Tian's mouth curled up slightly, and he responded lightly: "Fang Jun didn't send someone to respond, he came to monitor our actions to see if we are stationed in Longfeng Villa in a proper manner. The children are the forwards who block us, and will send people to attack us later!"
"I just said, how could the old man be so kind?"
Yang Feiyang came out with a plate of green vegetables, and his tone was full of complaints: "It turned out that I was worried about us entering the urban area of Kunming and monitoring our actions. Fang Jun is really not a thing. I must kill him if I have a chance, so that I can vent my anger." I hate it!"
Chu Tian waved his hand, and said with a slight smile, "It's not time for a showdown yet. Shuaijun and Tangmen are like the Kuomintang and Communist Party in the past. If the devils haven't been driven out of the country, neither of the two parties would dare to tear up the agreement first. After all We must focus on the overall situation, otherwise the central government will be angry, and all our efforts will be in vain!"
Fang Qing nodded, took the green vegetables and said, "That's right, let's bear with it for now!"
Yang Feiyang wiped his hands and sat down, naturally put the crispy whitebait in front of Chu Tian, bit his lips and said, "Let's save his life for now, in the future Shuai Jun and Tang Sect will still have a decisive battle, as long as they find out With Fang Jun as the coach, Feiyang will definitely ask for a fight! Forget it, let’s not talk about it, so as not to get angry.”
Chu Tian and Fang Qing looked at each other and smiled, this little girl was quite charming when she was angry.
Sitting at the dining table, eating delicious food, and enjoying the gentle eyes of the two women, this is a very pleasant thing, not to mention that Yang Feiyang's craftsmanship is quite exquisite, Chu Tian suddenly felt the warmth of home, and felt satisfied , The tired heart of the rivers and lakes feud gradually became stronger in the lights and delicacies.
When it was about to end, Chu Tian asked Fang Qing, "Is there any movement from the Bamboo Union Gang?"
Fang Qing put down the bowl and chopsticks, and shook her head lightly: "No action! It's as dead as a pool of water!"
Chutian did not speak. He had expected that there would be no movement from the Bamboo Union Gang. The trap in Ningshui Garden did not kill him. Old K must be planning a bigger conspiracy. Therefore, before the deployment is complete, the Bamboo Union Gang will never Even if there is any action, thousands of people are compressed in the outskirts of Kunming, and it may be difficult to sustain it for too long.
Near two o'clock in the afternoon, Zhan Tianxiang and others had already gathered in the garden.
Standing at the door with his hands behind his back, Chu Tian glanced sharply at the tiger and wolf army, and then shouted loudly: "Brothers, I know that giving up Xishuangbanna makes everyone very tangled. After all, your blood and sweat have flowed here, but I, Chutian, want to tell you that the purpose of giving up now is to get better!”
Zhan Tianxiang and the others focused their eyes on Chutian!Although Chutian still looked weak, his tenacious spirit was still there. He waved his hand lightly: "Shuai Jun never cares about the gains and losses of a city or a pool, because what we want is the whole world. If we give up Xishuangbanna now, we will be able to do so in the future." We can own the whole of Yunnan, and even the whole of the south!"
The tough and deep facial contours are like statues carved out of marble!The wilderness gangsters are all ferocious guys who do all kinds of evil, and because of this, they became absolutely obedient after being tamed by Chutian like wild animals, and the removal of the arrest warrant made them even more determined. When they saw Chutian After drawing a blueprint for them, they all responded in unison: "The subordinates understand!"
Chu Tian nodded in satisfaction, and then raised his voice: "It won't be long before we fight back and tear apart all the enemies who stand in our way!"
Zhan Tianxiang took half a step forward and knelt down on one knee: "I am willing to go through fire and water for the young commander-in-chief, and I will die!"
The 500 people also followed and shouted: "I am willing to go through fire and water for the young marshal, and I will die!"
The ancient country they were born in has been sunk for a long time, and Chutian is the new rising powerful generation, always remembering the word "iron and blood" growing up. They first conquer themselves, and then show the world their ambition to conquer the world. People are happy to see Him, surrender to him, and contribute all your strength to help him.
At three o'clock, dozens of cars drove directly towards Kunming!Looking at the gradually disappearing Ningshui Garden, the old demon couldn't help sighing: "It's a pity!"
The corner of Fan Jian's mouth curled up into a smile, and he responded softly: "What's the pity? The young commander's move is very clever, old demon, don't you still not see the young commander's real intention?"
The old demon was slightly stunned, and then asked: "Isn't it in exchange for cooperation between the two parties, specifically to deal with the Bamboo Union Gang?"
Fan Jian burst out laughing, patted him on the shoulder and said, "That's the young commander's reason to appease people's hearts. In fact, he has a deeper intention. Let's return the Xishuangbanna that we captured to Tangmen. Do you think Fang Jun has any intentions?" Enough manpower to take over? Or, does he dare to spread his forces to take over?"
The old demon lowered his head in thought, and then his body trembled: "There are less than 2000 Tang Sect disciples, and the outskirts of Kunming are almost guarded by the Bamboo Union Gang. Fang Jun is afraid that he will not dare to separate his men? Otherwise, the troops will be scattered, and it will be easy for the Bamboo Gang to You must know that the Zhulian Gang still has [-] members, so it is no problem to attack the city! Fang Jun should not take any risks!"
Fan Jian nodded unfathomably, and said again: "The young commander entrusted the two hundred local helpers to watch over and wait for the Tang Sect, but it is impossible for the Tang Sect to accept it immediately, and the Bamboo Union Gang would not dare to separate the gang to kill them." Come back, then Xishuangbanna is actually still under our control, at least before the Bamboo Union Gang is driven out, Shuai Jun can still make a lot of money from various venues!"
The old demon suddenly realized, patted his thigh and praised: "Young commander is really a god!"
Fan Jian also showed approval on his face, leaning on the seat and sighing: "You are indeed a god!"
The old demon then turned his head, stared at Fan Jian with an intriguing smile and said, "Far Jian, you are not only the chief strategist of Shuai Jun, but also a worm in the young commander. You can guess his intentions so deeply, so you can see that you are also It's not easy, fortunately the young commander is not Cao Yin, otherwise I will definitely kill you, Yang Xiu!"
The corner of Fan Jian's mouth twitched, but he didn't say anything.
Of course, the mortal world knows who Yang Xiu is in the old demon's mouth. Yang Xiu is a talent, an elite figure among ancient intellectuals. Appreciating it highly, he entrusted him with the master who "knows the inside and outside" and became Cao Ying's senior staff adviser.
But it was such an important minister who was finally beheaded by Cao Yu.
If you evaluate him objectively, the gentleman's talent and knowledge are outstanding, and he is also quite accurate, quick and agile in speculating, analyzing, judging, and predicting the psychological activities of Prime Minister Cao Yu, and has a certain degree of forward-looking. Yang Xiu is exactly the same. Because of the accuracy of this foresight in advance, he lost his head due to suspicion.
When approaching Kunming, the sky stopped the rain.
Sure enough, Fang Jun sent eight hundred children to wait outside Xiaoxiao. Perhaps because of their deterrence, or perhaps because of Chen Taishan's order, the Zhulian gang completely ignored Chutian and the others passing through the stronghold. At the intersection, Chu Tian stopped the convoy because he saw Fang Jun standing in the rain.
As soon as Chu Tian rolled down the window, Fang Jun leaned over.
With a bit of shame on his face, he bowed his head and greeted Chu Tian: "Young commander, are you okay? Actually, you can stay in Ningshui Garden for a few more days, so why should you be too clear about the friendship between the two sides? "
Chu Tian leaned on the seat and stared at Fang Jun, and said with a teasing smile: "I can't die for the time being, why did Hall Master Fang come out to meet him in person today? Should I set up a formation and wait for Chu Tian to make a decision? If I shift to the left to go to Longfeng Villa, then Just send us off; if you go forward to Kunming, give us a headache?"
Fang Jun's face was slightly hot, and then he waved his hands and said, "Young commander is overhearted, why is Fang Jun such a person?"
Yang Feiyang wanted to say something but was held back by Chu Tian, who nodded and replied casually: "I also believe that Hall Master Fang is a good person, so I would like to thank the disciples of the Tang Sect for accepting me today. Baolian Mansion must be feeling unwell now, please send someone to take her to the villa, Hall Master Fang!"
Fang Jun showed a faint smile, and gently waved back!Not long after, Mo Mo, who was running over with an umbrella, was overjoyed to see Yang Feiyang and the others, and got into the car and exchanged greetings like a bird. Chu Tian turned to look at Fang Jun, nodded and smiled, "Hall Master Fang You are really caring, Chutian once again thank you for your kindness, and when I settle down, let's call again!"
Fang Jun lowered his head slightly, and replied loudly: "Young commander, take care!"
Chu Tian slowly rolled up the car window, his face always as calm as water.
At this moment, the gate of the Bamboo Union Gang's stronghold suddenly opened, and dozens of vans rushed towards Chu Tian and the others from both sides. If the Bamboo Union Gang doesn’t know how to flatter you, then it’s hard work for the brothers of the Tang Sect to block it for me, and we’ll meet later!”
After finishing speaking, Chu Tian gestured for everyone to leave quickly.
Fang Jun's face changed slightly, he turned his head and shouted to his cronies, "Arrange to defend!"
The convoy drove tens of meters away, Yang Feiyang snuggled up beside Chutian, and said quietly: "What tricks are the Bamboo Union doing? Just now we passed the stronghold and it was the best time to attack, but they didn't move. The convoy pursues, I really don't know what the enemy general is thinking!"
Chu Tian didn't answer, but Mo Mo sighed: "The Bamboo Union gang is soliciting relations between the young marshal and the Tang Sect!"
Yang Feiyang frowned slightly, and asked lightly: "Why?"
Mo Mo looked back at the murderous Zhulian gang convoy, and replied thoughtfully: "The Zhulian gang is now chasing after them. If the Tangmen who come out to meet them don't stop them, then the handsome army will despise their hypocrisy." ;If the Tang Sect blocks the attack and the Young Marshal leaves, the Tang Sect will feel that the Young Marshal has no loyalty!"
At this moment, the enemy of the pig's brain will transform into Zhuge Liang in Yang Feiyang's heart.
The sky was even a little clear when Chutian woke up. He sat up and glanced at the wall clock on the wall pointing at 10:30. I'm recovering as much as I need, so I need to rest more.
