Zhao Junsheng made a good guess about this matter, and immediately waved to the waiter in the shop: "Xiaoer, the Taoist priest's account is with me, and you will not lose a copper coin!"

"Then dare to bow to Zhao Junsheng if you dare to feel affection, and then scolded the middle-aged Taoist priest: "Smelly Taoist priest, you are very lucky. You have this military master to account for you. This time I will forgive you. If there is another time , must interrupt your dogleg and throw it out, hum! "

This time, the middle-aged Taoist felt ashamed for being so embarrassing, and when the waiter took away the two big fools, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Zhao Junsheng: "I am ashamed of the poor, thank you Captain for your help. May I ask Captain Gao's name, where is Gao?"

Zhao Junsheng waved his hands and smiled: "You don't need to be polite, the Taoist priest has experienced such embarrassing things just now, it is actually the fault of the next generation!"

The middle-aged Taoist was puzzled, Zhao Junsheng stretched out his hand to Guo Yi under his puzzled expression and gaze, "Guo Yi, hand over the Taoist priest's things! If not, Captain Ben will have someone break your claws, hurry up!" some!"

Guo Yi saw that Zhao Junsheng didn't seem to be joking. He had clearly seen that the money of the middle-aged Taoist priest was stolen by him, and he couldn't deny it if he wanted to. If he was searched by someone, he would definitely be found.

He smiled awkwardly, and reached out his hand to take out a money bag from his clothes, which contained a lot of odds and ends, including a large handful of copper coins, and some scattered gold lockets of different sizes. Degree ultimatum.

"That...young master, the villain is just making a joke with this Taoist priest, really, it's definitely just a joke!"

Zhao Junsheng glared at Guo Yi with an ugly face, stretched out his hand to pick up the document and opened it for a look. After reading the content of the document, he raised his head to look at the middle-aged Taoist priest in surprise, clasped his fists to him and said, "I never thought that Master Yuchan It turned out to be my great master Wei Tianshi, disrespectful and disrespectful! This kid is named Guo Yi, and he is a servant of the family. His discipline is not strict, and he offended the Taoist priest. He will definitely discipline him strictly after he returns, and ask the Taoist priest Haihan!"

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and sternly said to Guo Yi: "You bastard, why don't you hurry up and apologize to Daoist Dongfang!"

Why is Zhao Junsheng so polite to this Dongfang priest?Just because this Taoist priest was the apprentice of Kou Qianzhi, the emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the emperor Tuoba Tao relied heavily on Kou Qianzhi, and ordered him and his disciples to be treated with extra courtesy and ranked above the princes. He knelt down and proclaimed himself a minister, and built a five-story altar in the southeast of Pingcheng, the capital, for Kou Qianzhi and 120 disciples to live in. The court provided food, clothing and money. No one can compare, it is obviously not a wise move to offend this group of Taoists.

Guo Yi reluctantly said to the middle-aged

The scholar cupped his hands and bowed to apologize: "It was the boy who was wrong just now. The boy apologized to the Taoist priest, and asked the Taoist priest to forgive the villain this time. The villain will never dare to do such things in the future!"

The middle-aged Taoist priest learned that his money was stolen by Zhao Junsheng's entourage. He was very angry at first, but after thinking about it, the anger in his heart disappeared quickly. Volunteering to tell the whole story, who would know? It can be seen that the captain is an upright person, and he has never favored his followers, I admire him! Brother Guo has already admitted his mistake, and the poor will not pursue it!"

"Thank you Daoist for your generosity!" After Zhao Junsheng finished speaking, he handed over the Duyi, the copper coins and gold lockets on the table.

Yuchan received the certificate and the money, smiled and said to Zhao Junsheng: "

Pindao still has something to do, let's go ahead, see you again, and say goodbye! "

"Taoist, go slowly!"

After eating and paying the bill, Zhao Junsheng left the tavern with Dabo Xiaoyi in his arms, and took Lu Xuanbo and others straight to the military supplies warehouse.

When they got to the field, Pei Jin, Gao Xiu and Xue Andu happened to arrive with two battalions of heavy soldiers.

Zhao Junsheng patted Dabo Xiaoyi's fat face: "Fatty man, I have sent someone back to Jinling for that ledger. If anything happens to me, Mr. Zhao, and the transportation team, it must be you who did it. Someone will hand over the account book to General Wan, you don’t know that he was once His Majesty’s personal bodyguard? Do you think he can hand over the account book to His Majesty?”

Hearing this, Dabo Xiaoyi's whole heart turned cold, and he couldn't bring up even the slightest thought of revenge. Zhao Junsheng's control of the account book was like controlling his life, and he could be dismissed from office at any time, or even The head fell to the ground.

Like an eggplant beaten by frost, Dabo Xiaoyi sighed: "Okay, I, Dabo Xiaoyi, admit it. In the future, as long as you, Zhao Junsheng, lead the team to collect the military supplies and supplies you need in Huaishuo Town, I will accept them." Pay in full!"

After finishing speaking, Dabo Xiaoyi warned Zhao Junsheng again: "However, if you are greedy, I, Dabo Xiaoyi, will never let you control me, or I will die!"

"Don't scare me!" Zhao Junsheng pushed Dabo Xiaoyi's hand away, and raised his chin at the guards at the warehouse door: "Let them open the door, my brothers are still waiting to move things!"

Under Dabo Xiaoyi's order, the doors of the warehouses were opened, Zhao Junsheng waved his hand, and the soldiers lined up to move in.

Bags of food, military uniforms, shoes and socks, crossbows, arrows, leather armor, knives and guns were taken out and stacked on the carriage. This time the most food needed to be escorted, and other materials were only transported back to make up for the loss.

Zhao Junsheng was walking in the warehouse and saw pairs of wooden clogs stacked in bundles in a corner. He immediately said, "Quickly, take out [-] pairs of these leather clogs!"

Leather clogs are also clogs, but the upper is made of animal skin and the sole is made of wood.There are also cloth uppers, called cloth clogs, and some use straps as uppers, just like flip-flops of later generations.

This thing has been around since the Yao and Shun period. During the Jin Dynasty, there were different styles of clogs for men and women, usually men's and women's circles.

A few years ago, Xie Lingyun, the prefect of Yongjia in the Southern Dynasties, invented a kind of clogs. The front and rear wooden teeth of the wooden soles can be disassembled freely, which is very convenient for people to climb and descend mountains. It is popular all over the country, and people call it "Xie Gonglu".

This period was the most popular period for clogs. They can be used not only for home use, but also for travel. One of their most practical functions is to use them as rain boots. Because the soles have two wooden teeth on the front and back, they can grip the muddy ground without slipping when worn on rainy days. .If you walk carefully, you can keep your feet from getting muddy.

Zhao Junsheng was not greedy and asked the soldiers to move hard. The time and weather conditions did not allow this escort to carry too much food and supplies. Carrying too much food and supplies would slow down the marching speed of the team, and bad weather would slow down the march even more. The speed of the army, the supply team must rush back to Jinling as quickly as possible, and deliver the food and grass before the food in the barracks runs out.

Zhao Junsheng breathed a sigh of relief when the transportation team escorted the food and supplies back to the camp outside the city.

"Captain, someone is looking for you outside the gate of the camp!" A soldier walked into the tent and reported.

Zhao Junsheng got the report and went to the gate of the camp. From a long distance away, he saw two beautiful women standing at the gate of the camp. Even if he couldn't see their faces clearly, Zhao Junsheng knew that they were definitely Wan Yutong's master and servant.

When he walked in, he saw that it was indeed them, and he cupped his hands and said, "Why are you here?"

Wan Yutong reached out and stroked his long hair at the sideburns, "I, I want to go to Jinling with your baggage team to visit my grandfather!"

Zhao Junsheng's expression was blank, and he stabbed on the spot: "My eldest lady, you think that marching and fighting are a joke, are you kidding me? Believe it or not, once you show up in the barracks, the whole barracks will be turned upside down? "

Chapter 146 Prepare for the Worst

"Zhao Junsheng, what do you mean? According to what you said, I won't be able to go out to see people in my life?" Wan Yutong lost his temper very rarely, and his whole body was full of anger.

Zhao Junsheng couldn't stand Wan Yutong's stare, he shook his hands hastily: "No, no, that's not what I mean, it's fine for you to go in and out of the market, but there are some rough men in the army, if you appear in the barracks In the middle, the soldiers must be drooling around you one by one, how can this embarrass your grandpa?"

"It's fine if you don't want to take me there, why are you making these excuses?" Wan Yutong blushed, tears streaming down her face, stomped her feet, turned and ran towards the county.

"Zhao Junsheng, you are a bastard!" The maid Xiaocui yelled and called the coachman to chase after Wan Yutong.

"I'm telling the truth, okay? Huh—" Zhao Junsheng let out a breath, and couldn't help shaking his head while watching Wan Yutong's back running in the muddy water.

At some point, Guo Yi appeared beside Zhao Junsheng in a ghostly manner and said in a low voice, "Young master, your beauty is really enviable! But you are really puzzled, the girl made it clear that she just wanted to be with you, but you Such a refusal, and such an excuse, seems to make the girl cry!"

"Get out!" Zhao Junsheng slapped Guo Yi aside, and ordered: "Go and call Pei Jin!"

Guo Yi was not angry either, he got up from the ground laughing and ran towards the camp.

Not long after, Pei Jin walked over with an abacus under his arm and a ledger in his hand, "Captain, are you looking for me?"

"Brothers are you ready?"

"Get ready, you can set off to return to Jinling at any time!"

Zhao Junsheng walked back and forth in front of the camp gate holding the handle of the knife, thinking about it non-stop. The cold wind blew, and the cloak on his shoulders was rustling. After a dozen breaths, he stopped and told Pei Jin: " Tell the brethren, we will not leave today, and tomorrow we will make a fire and cook food at the fifth watch. As soon as the sky is bright, we will leave camp and set off to return to Jinling! In addition, you now take some brothers to the gate of the city to recruit strong men and laborers, at least 300 people, and promise that each person will go to Jinling every day. With a salary of fifty renminbi, three meals a day, every meal can satisfy them all!"

Pei Jin immediately turned into a bitter face: "Captain, the money we brought is almost spent, and it's still out of your own pocket. If you say 100 yuan per person per day, even if you only recruit [-] Not enough people!"

"Don't worry about the money, I will find a way to solve it, you go to recruit people first, the sooner the better!" Zhao Junsheng waved his hand.

Pei Jin had no choice but to agree: "Yes, this subordinate will take someone there!"

Zhao Junsheng returned to the tent. He took off the mink cloak hanging on the wall, looked at it, and shouted: "Old Lu, come here!"

Lu Xuanbo walked in with his sword in his hand and looked at him.

Zhao Junsheng folded the mink cloak, wrapped it in cloth, and handed it to Uncle Lu Xuan: "Take this cloak to the pawn shop in the city, and give the money to Pei Jin!"

Lu Xuanbo didn't answer, "Master, we haven't reached the point where we need to be clothes, have we? We have so many horses and chariots, and six hundred soldiers, why do we need to recruit strong men for labor? Isn't it too much?"

Zhao Junsheng sighed: "Be prepared for the worst. If I have enough time, why should I do anything extra? I can imagine that once the car is on the road, the road will be muddy, and the marching speed will be as slow as a turtle! Soldiers can't all be used to push carts, they also have to guard against possible enemy sneak attacks,
