Chapter 79 Head Level
"Don't worry about the person coming, you have to be careful, General!" Before Pang Tianci's head could turn around, Lei Xianchu fell into pieces, and then laughed: "Don't die, Mr. Pang lost."
Pang Tianci turned his head to see, and indeed Lei Xianchu had already taken his own chess chess and said absent-mindedly: "It's still the adult who is better than the chess. The official admires it, admires it."
As the two of them talked, the sound of horse hooves had gone from far to near. When they got closer, they rode several times. When they saw the man riding under his crotch, Lei Xianchu couldn't help but lit up and thought to himself that a big green horse was!
The only few people came here made Pang Tianci relieved. Seeing Lei Xianchu always looked calm from beginning to end, I felt ashamed of his performance just now, and I also admire Lei Xianchu as a hereditary military officer, and his courage and insight were stronger than ordinary people.
Lei Xianchu's subordinates had already ordered soldiers to line up. Although there were only a few people on the other side, they always had to do what they should do, otherwise the guerrillas would have to look bad on their faces. After several officers gave the order, the Gaozhou soldiers reluctantly stood up and lined up in front. Although it was a mess, they finally lined up the team before the few people dismounted.
Zhou Shixiang stood still and did not rush to dismount. Instead, he observed the opposite side. Then he asked Ge Zheng behind him, and Ge Yi brothers said, "Is this the soldiers of Li Dingguo like?"
"If Li Dingguo's soldiers were like this, why should the Tartars be afraid of him?" Ge Zheng glanced at the opposite side with disdain, "It was probably the Sanyong badge summoned by Zhang Xiaoqi. Tell me to see, this person with the surname Lei may also be a badge."
"What a bullshit guerrilla? It's just this guy. If you really dare to swallow us, you don't have to take action by the Thousand Households. I, Ge Liu, can cook them."
Since he found out that Zhang An said that Gaozhou sent a guerrilla to annex the Taiping Camp, Ge Liu was on fire in his heart. Before Brother Hu's body was cold, Gaozhou had the idea of annexing the Taiping Camp. This Yongli court was too masturbating, and Cheng Bangjun was not a good bird, and Zhang Xiaoqi was not a thing. When Brother Hu was alive, he talked about Lord Zhang every day.
"Don't act rashly. The person who comes is a guest, and he is also a governor of the four governments. Before the other party explains the purpose of the visit, we cannot lose etiquette, otherwise we will be the one who is unreasonable."
Zhou Shixiang was afraid that Ge Yi would cause trouble, so he told him in advance before turning over and dismounting. Then he led his brothers forward, holding his fists while walking, and asked loudly: "Who is the guerrilla Lei in Leizhou?"
"General Hu doesn't have to be too polite!"
Pang Tianci only said that the person coming was Hu Quan. Seeing that the other party looked gentle and had no robbery at all, he couldn't help but feel good about it. He smiled and stood up and nodded.
"I am Lei Xianchu."
Lei Xianchu was not as polite as Pang Tianci, and he didn't even stand, but just sat there, nodding his head to Zhou Shixiang with an old aura.
This behavior naturally made the brothers who came with Zhou Shixiang arouse fire, but Zhou Shixiang remained silent and stepped forward to Lei Xianchu and bowed again, saying neither humble nor arrogantly: "Lord Lei came from afar. I have worked hard all the way. Please follow him into the city. I have asked someone to prepare a small wine to welcome the adults."
"It's not necessary to drink alcohol. If you drink too much, you've quit a few years ago."
Lei Xianchu looked at Zhou Shixiang up and down, then stood up, but a follower next to him quietly leaned towards him two steps, and then whispered something. After hearing what the follower said, Lei Xianchu's eyes suddenly became confused and stared at Zhou Shixiang and said, "Are you Hu Quan?"
Zhou Shixiang looked at his expression, and then looked at the strange look of the follower. He guessed in his heart that the other party had probably seen Hu Quan and knew that Hu Quan was a one-armed man, but he had different appearances and had both arms, so he became suspicious. He did not hide it at the moment and said, "I am not Hu Quan."
When Lei Xianchu heard that the person who came was not Hu Quan, his face suddenly sank: "Where is Hu Quan? Why don't you come to see me?"
Before Zhou Shixiang could reply, Ge Yi, who had been on fire, said first: "My elder brother is dead, it is not easy for you to see him. Humph, even if my elder brother doesn't die, he is a general of the gang. You are a guerrilla. Why do you want my elder brother to come to see you?"
"Um?"
After hearing Ge Yi's words of holding guns and sticks, Lei Xianchu was furious and was about to attack. Pang Tianci saw the opportunity quickly and rushed to say, "How did General Hu die?" This fault made Lei Xianchu's attack difficult.
Zhou Shixiang blamed Ge Yi for his lack of restraint and said a few words in a short battle with Deqing Green Camp. After hearing this, Pang Tianci couldn't help but sigh. Regardless of whether he was sincere or not, he always sighed about Hu Quan's death.
Lei Xianchu was not moved, but was surprised: Why did these bandits dare to take the initiative to attack Deqing's Qing army? Are they very strong?
He was surprised but also happy. If these bandits were not weak, then this trip to Luo Ding was worth it. The minion opposite was unspeakable, but the young man in front of him was very sensible. Behind him was the court and the Lord Futai, he would not dare to do anything randomly. After entering the city, he comforted him well, and all the people left by Hu Quan were his.
Thinking of this, his face couldn't help but calm down. After expressing regret for Hu Quan's death chat, he asked Zhou Shixiang: "Who are you? What is Luo Ding's assignment now?"
"Next Zhou Shixiang, the brothers are respected by them, and now they are temporarily the leader." Zhou Shixiang said.
"Why are you not a leader? It sounds like a bandit. Since you have been recruited, you will regard yourself as an official army and as a famous court weapon. If this leader is not a leader, you can't say anything in the future." Lei Xianchu changed his tone, "Since Hu Quan is dead, I will ask the court for him. As for you, I will make arrangements."
When Ge Yi heard this, he couldn't help but get angry again, but was pulled by his brother Ge Zheng. Zhou Shixiang also turned around and glared at him, which made Ge Yi hold back his words.
"This is not a place to speak. Please enter the city first. It is not too late to talk about this tomorrow after the reception is clean."
“Okay.”
Lei Xianchu did not refuse, and introduced Pang Tianci and several subordinates who came with him to Zhou Shixiang. Zhou Shixiang all bowed his fists and greeted him one by one, then led the way forward and led Lei Xianchu and his party back to the city.
On the way, perhaps because he knew that Hu Quan was dead, he had no obstacles to taking him, the general, and his subordinates. Lei Xianchu was in a particularly good mood. He was rare to laugh with Zhou Shixiang and asked a lot of questions about their two battles against Luo Ding and Deqing. Zhou Shixiang knew everything, but it was obvious that he had not finished speaking. Many important parts in the country did not say the same word with him at all.
Pang Tianci’s riding skills were not very good. The horse riding along the way had already made his thighs hurt. Fortunately, Luo Ding was not far away, so he forced himself to do it, interjected a few words in between, nodding from time to time or was surprised, and cooperated very well.
Zhou Shixiang did not forget to indirectly attack, wanting to find out why Lei Xianchu, the military officer, came to Luoding, and where Cheng Bangjun, the Fangsi of the Ministry of War, went, but just like he deliberately concealed it, Lei Xianchu and Pang Tianci did not say much about it.
When Zhou Shi met, they didn't want to say anything, so they didn't ask, and asked about the current situation of the anti-Qing Dynasty. Lei Xianchu was not very clear about this, so he didn't say anything. However, Pang Tianci probably got some news from his brother Pang Tianshou, the Qin King Sun Kewang led his army to confront the Qing army in Hunan, and he was interested in urging his troops to seize Nanjing along the river. If this matter could be accomplished, then the Ming Dynasty's revival would be just around the corner.
The capture of Nanjing along the river is a major event. If it is successful, the revival of the Southern Ming Dynasty is not an exaggeration. However, Zhou Shixiang knew that there was no battle to capture Nanjing led by Sun Kewang in his historical memory. Instead, Zheng Chenggong entered the Yangtze River. Moreover, the final outcome of Sun Kewang was to surrender to the Qing Dynasty. From this, it can be seen that the Qin King who had been told to seize Nandu was probably empty talk.
He asked King Li Dingguo of Xining again, but this was really awkward. Lei Xianchu was just a miscellaneous guerrilla under Zhang Xiaoqi. Although Pang Tianci had a brother of the same clan who was the eunuch who was the chief eunuch of Si Li, he was only a seventh-rank magistrate. The news that King Sun Kewang of Qin wanted to seize Nanjing was Pang Tianshou accidentally mentioned a few words to him. He guessed that he could really know what the princes were doing.
During the conversation, Lei Xianchu praised the big green horse that Zhou Shixiang rode more than once. When he learned that the horse was stolen by Zhou Shixiang from the gang general of the Tatar Han army flag of Yunlong, Lei Xianchu was even more jealous and his eyes fell on the big green horse several times, so that Pang Tianci couldn't hear clearly when he talked to him. Zhou Shixiang only kept it secretly and did not care about him.
Later, the two sides had nothing to say, so they rushed all the way speechlessly. They rushed to the ground and finally saw Luo Ding's broken city wall before the sun set. In front of the city gate, they saw a group of soldiers parked there with two carriages. Judging from their appearance, they seemed to be waiting deliberately.
............
"What's in the car?"
Lei Xianchu ran to the carriage and saw that the carriage was covered with hay, covering it tightly, as if there was something hidden. He couldn't help but wonder, looking at Zhou Shixiang who was coming from behind with confusion. Pang Tianci was also curious and couldn't help but want to see what was installed in the car. Ge Zheng, Ge Yi and others laughed in their hearts, waiting for jokes with stern faces.
"So smelly!"
A Gaozhou officer who came with Lei Xianchu saw that his adult was surprised and wanted to lift the grass. However, before he could approach the carriage, a strange smell made him stop subconsciously. The strange smell was really smelly, which made his stomach turbulent and he wanted to vomit.
"What's it? It's so smelly!"
At the same time, Gaozhou soldiers who were leaning over also covered their noses, and Pang Tianci's entourage looked at the car with disgust. Pang Tianci himself also covered his nose, as if he was hiding aside like a feces truck. There was no way, the smell coming from the car was so bad.
"What the hell is it?"
Lei Xianchu was so angry that he smelled the stinky smell before he even entered the city. What do these bandits want to do? Do they want to use the feces to give me a warning? If this is the case, it would be too ridiculous!
Pang Tianci also frowned, telling him intuition that the two carriages were not loaded with good things, and if they were not done well, it was really the bandits who did it intentionally. He suppressed his displeasure and asked Zhou Shixiang, "What is installed on the car?"
Zhou Shixiang said slowly: "The head of the Qing army."
"Head?!"
Pang Tianci was shocked, jumped far away, his eyes wide open, and his face looked incredible.
"What's the fear of a person's head? I have never seen anything I have ever seen before!"
Lei Xianchu didn't care at all, nor was he afraid. He only thought that Luo Ding's bandits were considering the courage of his guerrilla master and deliberately scaring him. Since he had the intention to annex them, he must not show his timidity in front of them, otherwise how could he convince the public?
As he spoke, he used his hand to pick up the hay on the cart. When he saw the guerrillas taking action, two Gaozhou soldiers immediately came forward to help. However, when the hay was removed, the three of them stayed there like they were possessed by evil spirits, and they didn't even dare to breathe.
"What a head..."
The two Gaozhou soldiers' faces turned pale, their voices stuttered, and their legs trembled.
Lei Xianchu did not turn pale, nor did he retreat in fear. Instead, he stared at the heads piled up in the car, his cheeks shaking.
