Song Dynasty Iron Armored Army

Chapter 182

Wu Song said: "Brother, Erlang has something to tell his brother."

"Erlang is going to ask for leave to go home to see his brother?" Chai Lin said.

Wu Song said: "Yes, I have been away from home for several years, and I miss my brother very much. I want to take half a month's leave and go back to Qinghe County."

Qinghe County is next to Yanggu County, but the distance is very close. It is only more than 500 miles away from Cangzhou, and it can be reached in five days by horseback.

Chai Lin said: "No problem, things are not busy recently. You can go back, just promise me two things."

Wu Song said with a smile: "If there is anything, brother just say it."

"First, drink less when you go out, especially if you can't drink too much. I know your situation. You can control yourself in the camp. Once you go out, I'm afraid you will get drunk. Road is prone to problems." Chailin said.

Wu Songdao: "Brother, don't worry, I have figured out a lot of things recently. I used to think about drinking and eating meat, but now I understand that there are many more important things to do. I must control my drinking and not get drunk."

"The second thing is that you choose two soldiers from the battalion to accompany you, and you must pay attention to safety along the way. Now that the world is in chaos, there are many shops like Sun Erniang, so you must pay attention." Chailin reminded.

Wu Song said: "Okay, I have handled a lot of cases in the Yamen during this period, and I will definitely pay attention to these people's tricks."

"There's nothing else to arrange." Chailin said.

Early the next morning, the soldiers gathered for training, and the Chongbu Battalion was temporarily replaced by Lieutenant General Liu Xiongda.Wu Song packed his luggage and brought two soldiers, one named Li Huan and the other Zhang Geng, both men from Chongbuying, to bid farewell to Chai Lin.

Chai Lin said: "Erlang, I will give you three sets of badges and documents from the Cangzhou arrest envoy. Your badge is Dutou, and the other two are fast arresters. Your big black horse was seconded by the stud farm. I In addition, three fast horses have been prepared, and the three of you are riding fast, and the speed is also fast."

As he spoke, Chai Lin took out another 50 taels of silver, and said, "You take this silver too, and buy something for Dalang."

Wu Songdao: "Brother, during this period of time, the money just rewarded me is two hundred and tens of taels. I have been useless, so why give me more money?"

Chai Lin said: "I didn't give you the 50 taels of silver. It's your big black horse at the stud farm. There is a rich man nearby who likes your big black horse very much. He brought a mare. It's ten taels of silver at a time. This is the stud farm's arrangement. For you."

"Thank you, brother, but Wu Song can't take this money. The black horse is very edible, and it can eat as much as three ordinary horses in one meal. Brother, let's save the money to feed the horses." Wu Song said.

Wu Song repeatedly refused to accept the money, so Chai Lin had no choice but to accept it.

In addition, there are packed meat pies, jerky, water bottles, short knives and so on on horseback.

Naturally, long weapons and iron armor cannot be carried, and everyone has a waist knife for self-defense.The three of them wore ordinary clothes, bid farewell to Chailin and rode to Qinghe County.

Wu Song is looking for his elder brother Wu Dalang. Wu Song's parents died since he was a child, and he was brought up by his elder brother Dalang. Wu Dalang is both a father and a mother.

The three steeds that Chai Lin chose were not very expensive, but they were very good at walking without bumps, and they traveled easily for more than a hundred miles a day.

All the way without talking, Xiaoxing stayed overnight, and traveled five hundred miles in five days, and arrived at the boundary of Jingyanggang this morning.

Wu Song said: "I have been on the road for five consecutive days, and the horses are getting tired. I will find an inn ahead and rest early today, and we will leave tomorrow."

Zhang Geng said: "Okay, it's time to let the horse rest well, and it won't be able to bear any more walking."

Li Heng pointed to the flag in front of him with sharp eyes and said, "There is an inn in front, and three bowls can't pass the post."

Wu Song said: "It happened that I was hungry and thirsty, so we rested here."

The three of them came to the inn on horseback, and saw that the inn was quite large, with meals and accommodation available.

The clerk rushed over and said, "Are the three going to the top or staying in the hotel?"

Wu Song said: "I also live in the hotel and eat. First, let the horses settle down and feed them with good fodder."

"Okay, please come inside, guest officer."

Wu Song, Li Heng, Zhang Geng and their buddies led the horses to the backyard, and the buddies fetched fresh water and fodder.

After unloading their saddles and luggage, Zhang Geng said, "Today you guys eat first, and I'll brush up the horses. Let's ride horses a lot easier these days, and it should also make our blood alive."

"Okay, come to eat when you're done working," Wu Song said.

In fact, this is the rule of the road. These years are not as peaceful as the years. Tyrannical powers are everywhere, and black shops are everywhere. If you are not careful, you will be finished if you are not careful.

Wu Song and Li Heng went into the store and found a table and chairs to settle down.

The little one asked, "What would the guest officer want to eat?"

Wu Song said: "Cut a few catties of mutton, have two bowls of wine, and then some sesame seed cakes." Cows, either sick or healthy, would be slaughtered for their meat, as they would be used to work and plow the land.

"Okay, sir later."

After a while, Xiao Er came up to bring the food, and Wu Song and Li Heng started eating.

A man dressed as a businessman clasped his fists next to him and asked, "Dare to ask the two old brothers, but do you want to go to Yanggu County through the post?"

Wu Song said: "That's right, we went to Qinghe County and happened to pass by Yanggu County."

"That's just right. After the two of you have eaten, we'll go to work together." The businessman said.

Wu Song was puzzled, and asked, "Why do you want to pass the post together?"

"The two of you don't know something. During this period of time, a fierce tiger came up Jingyang Ridge, and it killed dozens of people in just a few months. Now people are in a state of panic. It takes noon to cross the hill, and dozens of people are in a group. Only dare to go there." The businessman said.

This Jingyanggang is the only way to Yanggu County, there are so many people coming and going, unexpectedly there is a big bug.

Wu Song asked: "Then why didn't the government arrest him to eliminate harm for the people?"

The businessman said with a smile: "The magistrate of Shi County sent all the heads of the county to capture them, but they fed the tiger. Recently, they mobilized dozens of hunters from the county to capture them. The increase has reached 200 taels, if you still can't get it, the reward will probably have to be increased."

Wu Song followed Chai Lin during this period of time, and considered issues more comprehensively, and was deeply influenced by Chai Lin's thought of serving the people wholeheartedly.

Wu Song said: "We have been on the road for several days, and we are already exhausted. We plan to rest for a day before we go. You can find another partner to go with you."

Xiao Er said to the businessman: "Guest officer, don't worry. There will naturally be dozens of people gathered here at noon. It's safe for everyone to pass the guard with sticks."

"well."

Wu Song looked from the store and saw sticks on the side of the road. It seemed that there were tigers on Jingyang Gang, and an industrial chain had already been formed.

After the two had eaten, Zhang Geng came to eat.

The three of them had been exhausted for several days, so they arranged for Xiao Er to open a guest room and take a nap. Wu Song didn't wake up until the sun was westward.

Wu Song said: "Li Heng, Zhang Geng, there is a tiger on Jingyang Ridge that harms the people. Do you two have the guts to take it with me? Not to mention eliminating harm for the people, you can also get hundreds of taels of silver."

They knew about Wu Song's fight with the tiger in Chailin in Cangzhou Mansion last time, and they easily won more than a dozen taels of rewards. It was very easy to get it done.The two can be selected as personal followers by Wu Song's attention, and they are naturally the best in the heavy infantry battalion.

Li Heng said: "You are the battalion commander, you decide. If you decide to take the tiger, we two brothers will naturally follow."

"Okay, then let's go get the big bug to receive the reward and earn some New Year's money. This inn is not a black shop, so we don't have to worry about it. Let's clean up and leave now." Wu Song said.

Wu Song came back to visit relatives, and it was a pity that the three of them did not carry bows and arrows and long weapons.Each has a short knife and a waist knife.

Whether it is a waist knife or a short knife, it is not suitable for fighting a tiger, because the weapon is too short, and the likely result is that the tiger will die together, so the first step is to find a way to get a long guy.
