Back Off, Let Me Come

  Shen Tang chewed a few mouthfuls before swallowing.

He raised his hand to wipe off the crumbs from the corner of his mouth: "Leave professional things to professional people. I am also the master. I do everything myself. Even if I have a shadow, I can't be busy. Also, what is 'dividing the spoils'? Does your elder brother know?"

   Shao Chong held the cake and said seriously: "Brother knows."

  The elder brothers gave him thousands of instructions. When he left their sight, he must explain where he was going, what he was doing, and who he was meeting. It was also with their permission that Shao Chong came to find Shen Tang for dinner. The eldest brother also said to let him learn from Shen Jun, what is stability.

  Shen Tang: "...that's not called sharing the spoils."

  Speaking as if she was a bandit.

   Not politically correct at all.

   Shao Chong asked doubtfully, "What's that called?"

  Shen Tang patted him on the shoulder: "Commendation meeting!"

   Shaochong nodded thoughtfully, and kept Shen Tang's teachings in his heart. The eldest brother said that he wants to learn from Shen Jun about the other party's stability. The charm of chatting is obviously not as great as that of cooking rice. After making simple complaints, the two continued to babble to replenish their energy.

   There is another purpose for this trip.

   "Shen Jun, the chef who baked the pancake..."

  If he wants to poach someone, he can give him any pocket money.

  Before he finished speaking, Shao Chong was keenly aware of the approach of a strange aura, and immediately raised his eyes in displeasure, and saw a group of tall and strong pink figures in his eyes. The latter's eyes fell on Shen Jun who was cooking together, to be precise, on the top of the big cake.

  Seldom rush to ask the other party: "The strong man also wants to eat?"

  The next sentence is: "It's just that you didn't come by coincidence, Shen Jun won't distribute it to people with bad relationships, no matter how greedy you are."

  Wei Shou: "..."

  He is not greedy at all, let alone wants to eat.

  Shen Tang seemed to be calm and composed, but she was really embarrassed inside. She sat upright and put the last bite into her mouth calmly on the surface. Standing up gracefully and calmly, the corners of his lips raised the most standard smile: "Thanks to General Wei today, otherwise I don't know how many soldiers died in this battle, please pay respects to Xiaoli—"

"No, the general and Shen Junfei are meeting for the first time, and those polite and warm solicitations will be saved. Skip these, you and I are also welcome." Wei Shou raised his hand very bluntly to refuse, but he still remembered that Shen Tang brought him that night There is a picture of two scribes jumping out of the window.

  Shen Tang also stopped his movements very simply.

  Standing up straight, he said: "General Wei is refreshing."

Wei Shou still looked at the tall slender boy in front of him unconvincingly, and opened his mouth to get straight to the point: "Mr. Shen also knows that because of your counselor Chu Wuhui, I have to betray my old master Zheng Qiao. Now except for Mr. Shen , I don’t have a better place to go right now. If it’s just one person, it’s easy to talk about anything, but the group of brothers under the old man’s tent who follow them through life and death can’t.”

  Shen Tang nodded and said: "This is natural."

  Her straightforward and straightforward attitude made Wei Shou increase his precarious favorability a lot. However, talking about money hurts feelings, and talking only about feelings hurts money. The salary must be negotiated in advance before going to work: "How much military salary can Shen Jun pay for a year?"

  Shen Tang asked Wei Shou how many troops he had under his tent.

  Wei Shou said: "Not many, more than 2,500 people."

  He said this lightly, but there was a look of complacency in his eyes. He should really be proud, the scale of private parts is more than double the normal size. For generals like Zhao Feng, his private trilogy only lasted around a thousand.

   It's not that Zhao Feng can't expand, but it costs money to raise it.

  Wei Shouhui chose to follow Zheng Qiao, and a large part of the reason is that Zheng Qiao is generous to warriors with good treatment and generosity. A large part of his private repertoire was brought from his hometown, and the big guys followed him for a bite of food.

   It is impossible for him to change jobs without considering their livelihood - the treatment Shen Tang will give later will largely determine whether Shen Tang is his temporary lord or long-term lord.

  Shen Tang didn't know Wei Shou's thoughts, but Chu Yao knew a little bit, but he wasn't worried at all, and didn't mean to remind Shen Tang. Because Chu Yao is very aware of her protagonist's temper, in order to shape military discipline and prevent soldiers from relying on massacres to search for survival, she is quite generous to the soldiers. There may not be much money, but they will definitely not starve their stomachs, and the rice and food are all in full.

   Sure enough—

  Shen Tang asked again: "How's their appetite?"

Wei Shou frowned secretly, and replied: "All of them are young and strong men, so their appetites can't be small. They can eat as much as a grown man eats. Most of them have left their homes and have no relatives, but some of them have families. .”

  Shen Tang bowed his head and thought for a moment.

  Take out a blank piece of bamboo, pick up a pen and write a string of characters.

  Seriously said: "Conquering Chaoli Pass, the part under General Wei's account is the first achievement...Look, can this work?"

  She handed the bamboo piece to Wei Shou.

  After Wei Shou took it, he glanced at it, and there was a moment of astonishment on his face. It's not that Shen Tang is too stingy and the salary is very low, on the contrary, the salary she gives is so good that it doesn't seem like her family can afford it. The military salary is paid on a monthly basis. Although there is not much money, there is a lot of rice, grain, oil and meat, and there are two sets of new clothes and shoes every season. In winter, an additional five catties of cotton will be distributed.

  Because of this meritorious service, he got two more months of military pay.

The key is-

Monthly!

   Wei Shou put down the bamboo piece, looking suspiciously.

  Shen Tang thought it was because the salary was too low, and said sincerely: "...General Wei, although there is not much money, there are many things that are necessary for life. At this age, it is not easy to have enough food."

  The land she can farm is still too small.

   Can't afford to support too many elites.

  Of course, the number she gave is not the final bottom line, and there is still room for negotiation. If Wei Shou opened his mouth aloud and the negotiation failed, it would mean that she and Wei Shou had nothing to do with each other. It's just a pity that after Wuhui's planning, he couldn't recruit this fierce general.

  Who knows, Wei Shou just asked: "What is cotton?"

  Shen Tang explained: "Similar to reed catkins..."

"Reed flowers and catkins? These things are not good for keeping out the cold, but—" Wei Shou is also honest on the surface, and he has calculations in his stomach. No matter whether Shen Tang's family background is thin or thick, if he dares to give this bargaining chip in public, it is impossible to go back on his word in the short term, even if If you can't afford it, you will swell your face and make yourself fat. These burdens should be worrying for Shen Tang, and have nothing to do with him. So he changed the subject, patted his chest and said, "However, those soldiers of the last general are all real men who can withstand the cold, and they have fought barebacked in winter!"

  Professed to jump directly from "old man" to "last general".

Shen Tang didn't notice it for a while, and focused on explaining: "General Wei misunderstood, what I mean is - cotton is used as stuffing for jackets like reed catkins, but the warmth retention is not comparable between the two. Cotton is the best Something to keep out the cold."

   Wei Shou nodded perfunctorily, obviously not listening.

  Chu Yao's lips curled up, and his eyes were full of light.

  Shen Tang didn't react until he finished talking about Mian Mian, looked at Wei Shou, and said happily, "What General Wei means, is this willing?"

  Wei Shou also generously held up his valiant amulet with both hands: "Wei leads the crowd, and is willing to work for Shen Jun!"

  Shen Tang covered the Tiger Talisman with his hand.

   "I will live up to the general's trust." She is no longer the stunned young man who was at a loss when facing Gong Shuwu's loyalty.

  When Shen Tang's words fell, Wei Shou keenly noticed a warm current flowing down her palm and flowing into his Danfu martial arts. This feeling is all too familiar to him. Immediately he looked up at Shen Tang in astonishment, but soon he lowered his head again, his mind was buzzing.

  Chu Wuhui, this bastard...

   is too daring!

  Shen Jun in front of him is actually holding the imperial seal!

  The warm current that cannot be ignored just now is clearly martial arts!

  Shen Tang supported Wei Shou with both hands, smiling like he picked up a lot of money. With Wei Shou joining, the family can be regarded as having a top-notch battle strength of 800, which is not too partial after all. Shen Tang took out a big pancake and asked, "General Wei fought a battle, are you hungry?"

  Wei Shou: "...my lord, the general will not be hungry."

  Unable to sell, Shen Tang could only digest it by himself.

  Shen Tang has recruited Wei Shou, and the income has exceeded expectations. He is not very concerned about the spoils conference...ah no, how much benefits the commendation conference can get. She belongs to Buddhism, but Gu Chi can't, he still cares about pennies and pennies. Relying on his literati's way of reading minds, he can firmly grasp the minds of everyone in the tent. Open mouths are "My lord ascends first to seize the city", "Bai Su bends his bow and shoots the flag", "Chu Yao plots the overall situation to instigate Wei Shou"...it can't be justified without giving the first credit? Isn't it unreasonable not to give priority to the selection of captives?

  Of course, my lord respects Leader Huang very much, and only the leader Huang, who is wise and powerful, and who distinguishes between public and private, unites everyone, and today's victory is the only way. The distribution of captives is naturally given priority to the leader Huang.

  Huang Lie was wearing a high hat by Gu Chi, so it was difficult to refute.

   Gu Ren echoed from the side, and Wu Xian had no objection.

  Tao Yan, who had an opinion, was annoyed by Gu Chi's yin and yang—he was not very capable, but he had a lot of appetite——Tao Yan's face turned green.

   Gu Chi was satisfied.

  Of course, there will still be arguing in the follow-up, and he has to watch every step of the way. At first, Shen Tang felt that he was making a fuss out of a molehill.

   "Huang Lie also needs face, won't it be too deceitful?"

   Gu Chi said that the lord is still too young.

   "How much is your face worth?" Suppose you get 3,000 captives, and you end up with 3,000 wounded captives, or 3,000 oldest captives, or 3,000 bastards... They will not be responsible for after-sales. The water here is deep.

  Shen Tang: "..."

   Same problem with other loot.

  Shen Tang simply delegated the power to Gu Chi to handle it.

The Allied Forces of the Dragon Slaughter Bureau captured Chaoli Pass, and instead of setting up camp immediately, they rested for a few days—although the capture of Chaoli Pass went smoothly, the army of heroic spirits at the beginning still made them lose their troops, and now the soldiers are exhausted. Suitable for continuing to fight.

  The news of the fall of Chaoli Pass quickly reached Zheng Qiao's ears.

  He was furious when he heard the words, and kicked down the table.

   Pulled out the saber at his waist and split the table in half—Since the assassination of Yan'an last time, Zheng Qiao, who was already suspicious and sensitive, became more and more suspicious, and picked up the habit of saber again. But because of this, countless internal eunuchs and maids died in his hands.

   "Is Chaoli Pass lost?"

   "How did you lose it?"

   "How can I lose it!"

  Zheng Qiao clenched the hilt of the saber and asked three times in a row. The people below did not dare to breathe, for fear that the sharp sword that took people's lives would fall on themselves. Zheng Qiao asked sharply, "Where's Li He?"

  He is very clear about Li He's abilities.

  The people below replied: "Supervisor Li was beheaded."

   "Beheaded? Who did it?"

   "I don't know, it's just that someone found its head..."

  Li He's head was discovered by the remnant soldiers who broke out from Chaoliguan. It is said that the head was discarded at will, and when it was found, it had been eaten by birds and lost most of its face.

   Zheng Qiao became even more furious when she heard the words.

   No need for the subordinates to explain, he also guessed what the death of Li He as a lobbyist meant. It must be the failure of persuading Shen Tang, which led to his death. Zheng Qiao asked about the details of the battle at Chaoli Pass. When he learned that the fall of Chaoli Pass was caused by Wei Shou's assassination of the defender, leading his troops to rebel, and cooperating with the Allied Forces of the Dragon Slaying Bureau, his anger rose to the peak in an instant, and his eyes were bloodshot .

   "Wei Shou! What a Wei Yuanyuan!"

   Zheng Qiao's words were squeezed out from the back molars.

He thinks that he treats Wei Shou well - because Wei Shou is different from those ambitious warriors under his tent, Wei Shou has a very clear goal, to support the clansmen he brought out from his hometown, and neither fight for power nor profit, he is one of the few Zheng Qiao doesn't need to worry about people who are on guard. Wei Shou's ambition is easy to satisfy, so Zheng Qiao has been assured of him these years, but this guy is the first to turn against the water...

   Of course, there is more than one bad news.

  The people he sent to arrest Wei Shou's relatives also returned without success. It can be seen that Wei Shou's rebellion was not a whim but a long-term plan. Despite her anger, Zheng Qiao has not completely lost her mind. He knew very well that after passing Chaoli Pass, the terrain was flat, and the counties and counties had no natural dangers to rely on, and it would be a matter of time before they were eaten by the coalition forces.

  The most urgent task is to come up with countermeasures.

   Once the trash Jiang Ao dies, Zheng Qiao can use the 16th-class university to create someone. Although this person's combat power is not comparable to that of trash snack Jiang Ao, there is still a risk of loss. He carefully picked out the available people in his hands, and the lights in the palace were kept on all night.

  It was late at night, and the night wind was cold.

  Zheng Qiao rubbed the center of her brows, trying to dispel the sleepiness.

   In a daze, he seemed to see a familiar figure in the candlelight. When the line of sight was refocused clearly, there was nothing there. Looking at the bright moon outside the window, he let out a soft sigh: "Senior brother..." But that person was already dead.

  barracks, barracks.

  Shen Tang couldn't sleep at night.

  Climb to a high place and find an excellent view to see the moon.

   Before appreciating it for a while, I keenly heard the movement caused by the weapon breaking through the air. Shen Tang, a master of art, was bold, and followed the sound to find the past. In the dark night, sword shadows danced, interweaving into a net. Leaning against the rock, she stared intently at it for a while.

  until the man sheathed his sword.

   "Tonan."

  The sword dancer at night is none other than Ning Yan.

  Ning Yan also noticed Shen Tang nearby early in the morning.

   Saluted: "Master."

  Shen Tang's eyes were full of admiration, he folded a branch and said, "I didn't expect Tunan to have such a handsome sword move. Hehe, it makes my hands itch."

  Ning Yan raised her eyebrows when she heard the words: "My lord, what do you mean?"

  Shen Tang held up the branch and said with a smile, "Have you tried?"

  Ning Yan drew his sword out of its sheath without saying a word.

   "Please enlighten me!"

  Although it was said to stop at the point, the two figures struggled with dozens of moves before they stopped. The branch in Shen Tang's hand was filled with martial energy, which was no worse than an ordinary sharp blade. Two completely different sword lights entangled and danced together under the moonlit night. Only then did Shen Tang realize that Ning Yan's swordsmanship was very orthodox. Every move is soft and firm, dense and long. If you don't make a move, it's over, once you make a move, it will be a shocking thunder!

  My wallet has been a little flat lately... I bought too many keyboards, and I was cheated by my brother for picking up the car. I won't brag next time...
