Chapter 299: Gaps
Xie Xunfeng said to Xiao Wenqin, "Killing him will give people an excuse... We don't need to kill him... I still have great use for them..."
Xiao Wenqin looked at Xie Xunfeng with confusion...
However, I became more and more curious.
After passing Scar Liu's camp, it took less than two hours to reach the foot of Yuntai Mountain...
From afar, I saw more than a dozen soldiers at the foot of the mountain.
These soldiers were dressed in tattered clothes, and their weapons were casually placed on the ground.
They are playing with money.
They saw Xie Xunfeng and his men riding towards them on horseback, but they just glanced at them and ignored them.
Just playing with money for himself.
Wait until the three men walked in leading their horses.
The leader, a skinny man with messy hair like a bird's nest and a dusty face, looked at them.
Seeing that the three people were all dressed in gorgeous clothes, the skinny man in the lead said to Xie Xunfeng who was walking in front, "Hey, young master, what are you doing here? Do you want to go to Nanman? If you don't take the official road, but take the private road... How about I only charge you one or two taels of silver for the three of you?"
After the man spoke, he smiled like a chrysanthemum, and there were two front teeth missing in his mouth.
Before Xie Xunfeng could say anything, Xiao Wenqin on the side said sternly, "Hmph... open your dog eyes and see ... I am the fourth prince of Daxia, Xiao Wenqin... I am here to take over our evil... Yuntaishan Army!"
Xiao Wenqin almost blurted out that it was the evil army.
The man in the lead heard what Xiao Wenqin said.
The smile on his face suddenly disappeared.
Then it was replaced by a look of contempt...
"The army is on the other side of the mountain, go over there through that road..."
After saying that, he turned to the soldiers who were also like scoundrels and scoundrels and said, "Come on, come on... keep coming... I thought a fat sheep had come... but it turned out to be a poor prince... why are you still pretending..."
Xiao Wenqin heard the gap-toothed soldier talking, frowned, pointed at him and said, "What are you talking about?"
The gap-toothed soldier glanced at Xiao Wenqin and said, "Your Highness, although my words may not sound nice, it will not harm you... on the contrary, it will benefit you... just put aside your official airs... now that you have come here... who is afraid of who..."
"I've already said that a fallen phoenix is no better than a chicken... You'll know it later! And they're taking over our side... Let me tell you, there are no less than twenty generals coming to Yuntai Mountain, and none of them can survive for more than three days..."
"However, Prince, you are the first one... However, even with your arrogant appearance, you won't survive more than three days..."
After listening to Huoyazi's words, Xiao Wenqin frowned slightly and was about to lose his temper.
Xie Xunfeng stopped Xiao Wenqin, then took out a golden bean from his pocket and threw one to Huoyazi.
Huoyazi took it quickly and found it was a golden bean.
His eyes were wide open, and he first put the golden beans next to his teeth and bit them.
After seeing the tooth marks on the golden beans.
That contemptuous face suddenly retracted...
A face full of smiles.
It felt like they were even closer than when he met his biological mother.
At this time, Huoyazi said to Xie Xunfeng, "Sir, is this young master also a prince? Sir, what can I do for you?"
"Lead the way. Is there any problem?" Xie Xunfeng said to Huoyazi.
Huo Yazi smiled and said, "That's no problem... Along the way, I can tell you about the situation of our evil army. You guys were sent here to lead the army, so you must need intelligence, right?"
Xie Xunfeng nodded and said, "Then lead the way..."
Huo Yazi quickly called the two people who were playing with him and scolded them, "What are you doing? Lead the horse for our prince..."
Two soldiers in tattered clothes stood up, smiled at Xie Xunfeng, and stretched out their hands...
Xie Xunfeng took out two more golden beans from his pocket, but did not give them to the two people directly.
Instead, he threw it to Huoyazi.
Huoyazi immediately understood what he meant and his smile became even more cheerful.
"My dear, you know the rules... Don't worry, I won't fool you..."
Huoyazi examined the two golden beans one by one and put them in his pocket.
Then he took out two pieces of silver and threw them to the two men, then kicked them in the buttocks and cursed, "You dare to ask the master for money... Why don't you take a piss and look in the mirror..."
After saying that, Huoyazi helped Xie Xunfeng to lead the horse, and then said with a smile, "Young Master... I actually suggest that you just run away... After all, we have a boss here... If you come here, you will steal our boss's job... As the saying goes, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain, unless they are one male and one female..."
Xie Xunfeng said to Huo Yazi, "What's the name of your leader? Was he appointed by the imperial court?"
When Huo Yazi heard Xie Xunfeng say this, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Sir, of course not... Although we in Yuntai Mountain are an army, to be honest, we are not under the control of the court..."
"If we had relied on the imperial court, we would have starved to death long ago... We are almost self-sufficient... And that's all thanks to our boss. So, don't say you are sent by the imperial court... Be careful not to get beaten to death..."
Xiao Wenqin said to Huo Yazi, "Are you kidding? The court distributes food, wages and clothes to you every year. Didn't you receive them?"
Huoyazi smiled and said, "Got it. We have 100,000 people on Yuntai Mountain. We only get 100 dan of grain a year, and several hundred taels of food wages! This is not enough to fill the gaps between our teeth... The rest was greedily taken by the dogs guarding outside..."
"Then why don't you report it?" Xiao Wenqin said.
Huoyazi glanced at Xiao Wenqin, then smiled bitterly and said, "Who are we... We are all people who deserve to die... Will anyone believe us? Besides, we won't pursue them. They will also turn a blind eye to us..."
Xiao Wenqin said to Huo Yazi, "What do you mean?"
Huo Yazi said to Xiao Wenqin, "You will know when you go up the mountain..."
After going up the mountain, we found that this was not a military camp at all.
It was just a small, shabby town, with shabby tents everywhere...
There were some thin people in tattered clothes lying in the tent.
There are also some simple wooden houses.
The owners of these houses are often strong men...
There are people like this everywhere in the mountains.
Of course, there are also some people patrolling with weapons in their hands...
They seem to have their own order here.
A lot of land on the mountain has been reclaimed and crops have been planted...
