Chapter 175 Chasing the North (twenty-four)
In the Yunzhong City, a secret place on the back street.
It was night time. In winter, even though the threat of foreign invasion was gradually weakening to negligible, the patrol and alert in Yunzhong City still did not relax at all.
The city is densely populated with so many people, which is even more valuable. The food that concerns the fate of tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians to survive the winter is extremely important. Fire prevention alone is an extremely important responsibility. The technique of training is like practicing but hatching eggs, and you cannot relax at all. Once it is loose, it will be difficult to come back tightly.
Patrol teams kept passing through the streets. Every time a team of people passed by, they would raise a torch to shine on the remote and back streets.
There is quiet in the alley. There is no community fire show today. The families in the alley seem to have cut the door early to rest. There is no footprint on the snow. There is no one moving at all.
When a patrol team passed by, a black shadow suddenly rushed past the other side. The figure was very tall, but extremely flexible. It flashed into the back streets and alleys, and it also rushed to the front of a yard gate like flying, pinching its throat and screaming twice as if it were a crow.
The gate of the courtyard suddenly opened, and the door shaft should have been filled with oil, without any sound. A few black shadows popped out of the courtyard, holding the guy in his hand, but it was a broom, and it was flying to cover up the footprints left by the black shadow all the way over.
The black shadow had already entered the yard. After cleaning up the traces, the figures also flashed back and quickly closed the yard gate.
The tall black shadow was familiar with the door and crashed into the front hall with fur curtains hanging on it.
In the front hall, the lights were on at some dim o'clock. There were already 7 or 8 people sitting in the room, and everyone looked nervous and alert. Although these seven or eight men were wearing shabby fur coats, everyone had fierce expressions and fierce behaviors. It was obvious that they were a life-and-death fighter!
When the tall black shadow crashed into it, the seven or eight men were tightened all over, as if they were about to jump up the next moment, then pulled out their weapons and started fighting!
Before the tall black shadow could stand still, he lowered his voice and said, "It's me! Where is the wine?"
The seven or eight men were relieved, and some people laughed and scolded: "You Hei Yuchi, you are so loud that you are shocked! If you hadn't heard the sound of your bet slut footsteps, you would have been fisted on your face when you came in!"
This tall black shadow is Yuchi Gong.
He stood at the entrance of the hall and smiled disdainfully: "I see, you are afraid of being like this! Isn't it just a sip of wine? It's like this. If you have wine, you will be brave and powerful. You dare to say this anywhere!"
Someone sneered: "You told Ying Fei to go?"
Someone sighed quietly, "There are fewer and fewer places in this city selling wine. Feng Qi was confiscated the day before yesterday, and eight or nine generals were pressed to beat military sticks in front of the door. How many people watched the fun? Feng Qi's wine was confiscated, and this guy was also driven to the city to work hard for ten days. Fortunately, his brothers were taken care of, otherwise it would have really implicated Feng Qi."
More people were still impatient and slapped the table and shouted: "Where is the wine, come up! We have worked hard to come here, and wait for this Hei Yuchi for so long. After drinking it early, we will spread it out as soon as possible. After gathering for a long time, God knows what will happen!"
The owner of the privately brewed tavern hurriedly brought a large tray, which was filled with simple wine and food, pickled chicken, pickled vegetables, a little meat sauce, and a stack of dried biscuits. A domestic servant with mixed-race from Hu and Han held a pottery jar.
Everyone's eyes were shining, just staring at the pottery jar that could not be staggered.
Several men who helped Yuchi Gong clean up their posture also squeezed in at this time. Yuchi Gong had the highest status here. At this time, they didn't care about courtesy and pushed Yuchi Gong away and wanted to squeeze in front. How could Yuchi Gong let them succeed? He walked to the front with a steed thrust, sat down, and stared at the wine jar with a eager look.
The store owner was a half-old man, but he was not afraid of the fighters at all. He put down the pallet and stopped the servant from opening the pottery jar. He sneered: "It is not easy for a little old man to do this business. If he finds out for the Eagle Shooting, he will have to be hit by twenty military sticks on his butt, and he will have to rush to the city to do hard work. It would be fine if he put some effort into it. The old man's army has many robes, but he can't afford to lose that person. So he will pay all the money and pay credit without negotiation."
A group of middle and low-level military generals from Heng'an Yingyang Mansion took their pockets, and three or five copper coins of various colors gathered together, and a lot of them were piled on the table. Only Yuchi Gong was touching his waist, but he didn't have any text.
The force was helpless, and Yuchi Gong could only ask for borrowing from the robe with saliva, but I wonder if it was because he borrowed too much in the past. These generals shook their heads, and they were all unable to give up their wealth.
After the stalemate, the shop owner shook his head: "Hei Yuchi is spared. You are a hero who is determined to fight the Turks. No matter how many people are now, you are thinking about other thoughts. My body is ruined by the Turks, and then I withdrew from the army. Today, I will treat Hei Yuchi to a bowl of turbid wine."
The store cleaned up Tongbao on the table, asked the servant to open the pottery jar, and limped back to the inner room. Everyone didn't care, but just stared at the servant and poured the wine in the jar into bowls.
After finally getting apart, everyone picked up the pottery bowl and drank it with a precious sip. After a sip, everyone sighed with satisfaction.
The wine is a village-brewed turbid wine. At most, it passes through two sieves, and the lemons float on it. The grain used to make wine is not very good, it should be aged grains. When the wine is in the mouth, the aroma is leaking and the sour taste is strong.
Such a village dish is placed in front of the military generals of the Yingyang Mansion of Mayi, and they will not even look at it. However, for the military generals of the Yingyang Mansion of Heng'an, it is like a treasure.
The Yingyang Mansion in Heng'an has a small salary and the hardships of the war, which can also be seen from this.
After half a bowl of wine, these military generals finally had some thoughts to talk about gossip. The hottest topic now is naturally the legendary victory of Xu Le in the hinterland of Mayi County. Everyone had seen Xu Le doing what he did in Yunzhong City that day, and was a young hero who was rare in decades.
The generals here know that Xu Le did not really compete with Liu Wuzhou. Instead, he became the new clan leader of the Liang Hai Special Division. Why did he not take over the Liang Hai Special Division? Instead, he appeared in Shenwu and made a big fuss. Everyone was confused.
But Liu Wuzhou suddenly released another news, saying that Xu Le was following his order to question Wang Rengong, which eventually triggered the war. Liu Wuzhou was a person who never spoke illusions, and now the generals really thought that Xu Le had long become their robes.
This robe is really powerful, and she pierced Wang Rengong's tiger skin at once. For the generals of Heng'an Yingyang Mansion, he also got rid of a big stone in his heart.
Is this kind of opponent, and I still want to deal with our Heng'an Yingyang Mansion?
It’s better to be more peaceful and wait for us to finish this winter and come and beat you! In this way, we can at least have a stable winter!
I just don’t know when we Liu Yingzhao will take action?
After drinking a few sips of wine, someone couldn't help asking Yuchi Gong. He had the highest status and should have known the most inside story.
"Hei Yuchi, has the Eagle Strike breathed in to you? When will you hit Wang Rengong?"
