The bandit leader didn't expect that he would become the focus.
He glanced at Qi Shan who was speaking and felt vaguely that he looked familiar. It was only when he saw Shen Tang beside Qi Shan that he suddenly remembered.
Isn’t this the scholar who rescued the “Gong fugitive” that day
It's true that enemies meet on a narrow road.
The bandit leader cursed inwardly and said expressionlessly: "It is me. As for the reason, it is hard to explain in a few words."
Shen Tang was curious: "What kind of 'hard-to-explain reason' could make someone with a bright future and a government job choose to become a bandit?"
It's obvious that he wants to get to the bottom of it and satisfy his curiosity.
The bandit leader whose scars were exposed: "..."
Without waiting for him to speak, Shen Tang raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the camp, saying, "This is not the place to talk. Let's talk over there."
The previous commotion was not small, and the hooligans in the camp were awakened no matter how deep their sleep was. They thought they would have to fight a bloody battle with the bandits to save their lives, but they just woke up and the battle was over. Shen Tang ordered them to work without hesitation.
What do you do
The bodies of those bandits must be buried
Shouldn't the bandit brothers who are still alive be taken care of together
Shouldn’t we capture the last few uninjured prisoners
If the gangsters don't do these jobs, who will
Qi Shan’s eyes became more and more subtle.
"What's going on with these people?"
Shen Tang: "A newly recruited gangster!"
Qishan: “…”
He wanted to cultivate and promote Shen Tang's ambition, and push Shen Xiaolangjun to the path he expected, but he also knew that with the young man's innocence, simplicity, youth and immaturity, this matter would take time. He was mentally prepared for a protracted war.
Who would have thought that after just one day of not keeping an eye on him, Young Master Shen had already recruited dozens of people, all of whom were young and middle-aged.
Pray for good doubts.
Which step is fast forward
"Why does Mr. Shen suddenly want to recruit these people?"
Shen Tang answered honestly: "I didn't want to recruit them. What's the point of recruiting them? It costs money to support these people. It's better to kill them all. It's quick and easy. But Xiaofang demolished my step. If I don't recruit them, I will feel embarrassed..."
Qishan: “…???”
He could understand every word, but why couldn't he understand when it was put into a sentence and spoken by Mr. Shen
What are you doing about removing the stairs
What's embarrassing
Qishan had doubts again.
Which step is fast forward
Shen Tang was inexplicably eager to try: "If Yuan Liang feels that recruiting these people is inappropriate, I can send them to hell."
If she kills these people, she won't have to spend money to support them.
Can save a lot of expenses.
By increasing revenue and reducing expenditure, we can quickly get out of poverty.
Qishan: “…”
He pinched his brows with a headache and waved his hand to stop them, saying, "No, no, since you've already recruited them, just use them."
Qishan chose to give up exploring the drunkard's logic.
As long as the result meets expectations, nothing else matters.
Shen Tang looked reluctant and said, "Oh."
The hooligans, who had no idea that they had been to the gates of hell, rushed to clean up the camp and re-lit the bonfire.
Lin Feng climbed onto the carriage and brought a few stools for Shen Tang and the others to sit on. Shen Tang told her to stop working and sit down to eat some pancakes.
There are bread to eat, wine to drink, and the miserable history of the enemy to listen to, which can bring pleasure to both the mind and the body.
The bandit leader who provided the material for the "History of Downfall" disagreed.
But the situation is stronger than us, and we have to cooperate even if we don't want to.
The bandit leader said: "That day, we escorted all the Gong prisoners to Xiaocheng, and checked the number of people with the Yaoling Pavilion, which received the female prisoners, and the Xiaocheng garrison, which received the male prisoners. After confirming that they were correct, we prepared to rest for two days before returning to report..."
It is said to be a break, but in fact it is to experience the characteristic industries of Xiaocheng.
Many people were exhausted from escorting the prisoners.
Addicted to the land of tenderness, unable to extricate oneself.
After two days of procrastination, he ran into a few bandits who looked abnormal. He took advantage of the situation and found an urgent secret letter from the bandits. It was the content of the letter that made the bandit leader decide to become a bandit.
Qi Shan frowned: "What does the secret letter say?"
The bandit leader clenched his fists, his face trembling uncontrollably due to his emotions, and the veins on his forehead were faintly visible.
It took him a long time to calm down and let out a breath.
"It is said that some people are dissatisfied with the tyranny and are planning to rebel secretly. Upon hearing this, the king Zheng Qiao was furious and ordered his confidants to suppress the mob. In order to calm Zheng Qiao's anger, the confidant in charge of supervising this matter would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let one go..."
As a result, no one who was plotting rebellion was caught.
But Zheng Qiao didn't believe it and put pressure on his confidants several times.
The confidant was also a ruthless person. In order to get the job done, he used the heads of more than a dozen villagers to make up the numbers. Zheng Qiao was very pleased and rewarded this loyal and capable confidant generously. But the truth cannot be hidden. This incident was like a fuse, and Zheng Qiao's actions of humiliating the royal family, old ministers, and survivors of the Xin Kingdom completely detonated it!
It was just a rumor of rebellion before, but now there are real people rebelling.
This secret letter was delivered to the governor of Sibao County in an urgent manner over a distance of 800 miles, explaining the cause and effect and asking him to mobilize troops to prevent possible civil unrest in Sibao County. Unfortunately, the messenger was killed by bandits, and the bandits were unlucky enough to fall into his hands.
"Because of this, you became a bandit?" Anyway, there are signs of rebellion in various places, and the throne of King Zheng Qiao is not stable. He might as well go all out and become a bandit and become a mountain king
Bandit leader: “This is just one of the reasons.”
There was another reason - his hometown was among the villages that were massacred, and his family and relatives were all there. Several of his fellow servants could not bear this result, so they followed him and became bandits, while the other servants continued to return.
"Such a coincidence?"
Qishan said: "I did it on purpose."
Chu Yao closed his eyes and thought, tapping his knees rhythmically with his fingers.
Hearing Qi Shan's words, he also opened his eyes and agreed: "The several villages that were massacred were all scattered around the temporary palace, and the rumors also spread from this area. Wu Lang, don't you think it's interesting? With Zheng Qiao's suspicious and violent temperament, he would order an investigation regardless of whether it is true or not, and nip all unstable and threatening factors in the bud. Zheng Qiao's confidant who is in charge of supervising this matter is not a good guy. He has done many things like using the heads of ordinary people to pretend to be military merits..."
Um…
It should be said that those who followed Zheng Qiao to fight did a lot of work.
Qi Shan continued, "If someone gave a hint to that confidant, it is not impossible to massacre the villagers and label them as a mob, and report them to Zheng Qiao... After Zheng Qiao took over Xin State, his series of actions had already offended everyone from the nobles to the common people. It was only a matter of time before they rebelled against him."
Taking this as an opportunity, it is not surprising that forces in various places have rebelled one after another. The only coincidence in this matter is that the bandit leader's hometown is also in that area. As for the rest, there are people pushing secretly and calculating carefully to disrupt the entire situation!
