The Great Bandit in Kangxi Year

Chapter 55

With thorns on his back, Jiang Tao pushed open the door and walked in. He said with a smile, "Commander Zhao, I, Heihu, offended the altar master before, and Heihu felt uneasy, so I came here to plead guilty."

Hearing the hoarse laughter, Zhao Gui trembled in his heart, and said in a trembling voice, "General Black Tiger, why is this? Cough, cough, this subordinate is seriously ill. I couldn't greet the general. I hope you will forgive me."

"Ah!" Jiang Tao exclaimed. After careful observation, he saw that he didn't look like he was seriously ill at all. His heart moved, and he sighed on purpose: "It's a pity, it's a pity, this general thought that the commander was strong and strong, so I wanted to give it to him as a gift." A beautiful woman, I don't want to be a leader without blessings, alas, that's all, that's all."

Ah, this time it was Zhao Gui's turn to cry out in alarm, regretful in his heart, he didn't care about other things, he quickly got up and knelt on the ground, and said gratefully: "Great kindness, the general, I will never forget it, but someone must take care of it." My subordinate, my subordinate will surely recover as soon as possible, and I will serve the general in the future without hesitation."

After he finished speaking, he realized that it was not good. Heihu didn't kill himself, why would he treat him so leniently? Could it be a joke?

Seeing this, Jiang Tao held back his smile and shouted: "Get up quickly, didn't the general say that? We are all brothers, so you don't have to kneel to me. Come here, and reward Commander Zhao with a hundred taels of silver, plus a beautiful woman. Hope Commander Zhao recovers as soon as possible, and will make great achievements again."

When Jiang Tao saw Zhao Gui, he was stunned on the spot, knowing that it would be useless to plead guilty to such a person, and after the beauty was brought in, he left with a smile.

Zhao Gui salivated and looked at the beautiful woman who looked like flowers and jade. When he woke up, he was really puzzled. He lifted the red silk on the square plate and saw 200 taels of shiny silver ingots. I felt that I had entered heaven from hell all of a sudden.

All of a sudden, he was covered in cold sweat, almost died in a blink of an eye, and gained glory and wealth in a blink of an eye. It was all the words of General Heihu, and he unconsciously felt awe in his heart.

......................
At noon, Jiang Tao was having lunch with Wei Donglai, and he didn't want Zhao Gui to come in with a tired expression: "I hope you will forgive me for disturbing the general. Come on duty."

"Hahaha, okay, let's have lunch together. In fact, the general is looking for you. I have made a great achievement. I wonder if the commander wants to go?" Jiang Tao laughed and led him to the table.

"It's okay to break your body and bones for the general, but the general also knows that the last general will not be able to do anything, hehe." Zhao Gui laughed.

"Okay, Commander Zhao is being modest, and that's actually it... this matter should be nothing to the commander, right?" Jiang Tao said with a smile, and gave Commander Zhao a piece of fat.

Zhao Gui hurriedly put on a look of being flattered, and said gratefully: "I am willing to die for the general."

"Hehe, don't be busy. Let's eat first before leaving. Try to recruit as many people as possible. If you recruit one person, the general will reward you with one or two. How about it?" Jiang Tao was worried. Hard work pays more.

Zhao Gui couldn't help being moved, and didn't stay any longer, thanked him and left, feeling that this matter is feasible, the more he recruits, not only will he be rewarded with money, but he will be safer in the future. The snow-white warm chest in the room made her heart feel hot, and she involuntarily quickened her pace.

Jiang Tao is much more relaxed now, as long as he has someone, why not worry about the big things?
He was calling Wei Dong to eat food, but he didn't want to send the soldiers to come in and report: "Report to the general, the green battalion soldiers have set up camp seventy miles away."

"What!" Jiang Tao's heart skipped a beat. He didn't expect the Green Battalion soldiers to be so poor, and their marching speed was too slow.

"General, there must be something wrong with this matter, don't be careless." Wei Donglai also frowned.

"Oh, could it be? Could it be that the green battalion soldiers are timid?" Jiang Tao asked puzzled.

"I don't know, but it's extremely detrimental to us if we procrastinate like this." Wei Donglai said solemnly.

"Okay, if the enemy doesn't move, I will move." Jiang Tao said decisively, glanced at the map, and ordered: "Send down the order, order Jiang Shi to withdraw, order Wang Dashan to return to the city, and order the entire army to prepare for battle at any time."

"General, why is this?" Wei Donglai asked in confusion. He was familiar with military books, but he had never heard of withdrawing from the sentry.

"Without him, the enemy is not in a hurry, so let's try to make him anxious. We will definitely send troops to Gushi County, which is only fifty miles away from here." Jiang Tao pretended to be mysterious.

........................

In the evening, Huang Tianfeng was a little restless in the camp. Just now, he came to report that more than a thousand bandits had gone to Gushi County, and there were crowds of people in Shangcheng County, obviously there were a lot of bandits.

There are still rumors in the village: "Follow the black tiger, men, women and children will not have to worry; kill the Tartars, avenge blood, welcome the prince, and every family can share the land; the black tiger star descends to earth, the world changes, and the light comes..."

There are other rumors, Huang Tianfeng slapped down the case, gritted his teeth and said: "It's ridiculous, it's a bunch of nonsense, a group of rebels are really looking for death, come here, if someone spreads the song, arrest them immediately."

"Zha." The generals received the order.

Huang Tianfeng waved his hands annoyedly, but he was a little powerless in his heart. According to the current situation, the bandits were threatening to start a prairie fire, and his heart was burning with anxiety. He wanted to lead the army to wipe out the bandits immediately, but finally he endured it and gave an order: " Order the three armies to set up camp another [-] li."

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

At this time, Jiang Tao led people to break through the important town in Gushi County, and started to fight against the powerful and divide the land, but the local people dared not come to collect it.

Jiang Tao had no choice but to find out the reason after thinking for a long time. The local people were afraid that if they left, they would be the ones who would suffer when the imperial army came.

Jiang Tao sighed secretly, it seems that copying doctrine is not an option, China's national conditions are too complicated, fame, he needs to be famous, but just now few people were killed, but a lot was seized, a total of three thousand shi of grain, tens of thousands of taels of gold and silver, Several other items.

He sighed in his heart, the tyrannical rich man is really rich, and thought to himself: "Since we can't take away so much food, let's just distribute it to the common people."

Only then did the people readily accept it and praised it loudly.

Jiang Tao secretly laughed in his heart: "Our Chinese people are still smart, hehe, they are soft on grabbing people and soft on eating people. When the master comes out strong, the common people should have less scruples."

He had arranged his defense and was about to eat, but he didn't want to come to report. More than [-] Qing soldiers were rushing towards the town, and they were already ten miles away.

Jiang Tao was dumbfounded. He was really not afraid of death. He just happened to be training soldiers. This time he went out of the city with Strong Bow Guards, Black Tiger Guards, and Iron Spear Battalion. There were 300 people and ten righteous sons. The leader is Jiang Xin.

Jiang Tao sneered, and shouted: "Jiang Xin immediately led his disciples to cut off the opponent's scout horse, and this general will bring the army here immediately."
