Return of the Swallow

Pang Xiao nodded and smiled: "The two gentlemen still understand me."

Seeing Pang Xiao's confidence, Xie Yue and Xu Wei were at ease.

All kinds of rumors in the barracks were fermented under Pang Xiao's deliberate indulgence, and half of the people in the barracks were talking about this overnight.There are also some people behind them who have been instructed by another group of people besides Pang Xiao, who are preaching that they will have no military pay for the next year.

Under the panic, the barracks were full of impetuousness.

Especially on the day when the food was paid, Pang Xiao was silent here.

These worried people are finally unable to hold back.

In the early morning of this day, light snow floated in the sky.

As soon as Pang Xiao finished washing, Huzi stepped into the tent.

"Master, the bunch of rascals are making trouble outside!"

Pang Xiao grinned, threw the veil in his hand into the tub, put on the big cloak and said, "Go, go out and have a look."

The striding meteor came out of the account, and the noise from a distance penetrated into his ears.Pang Xiao and Hu Zi went looking for the sound. The closer they got, the louder the noise. When they came to the school, they glanced at it. There were two to three thousand people gathered in one place. The noise was not like the noise of the Ping Nan Army. It’s like being at a bazaar in the schoolyard.

Pang Xiao copied his hands and stepped forward slowly.

In the crowd, I don't know who yelled: "Stop talking, the prince is here!"

The crowd was silent for a moment, but for a moment there was noisy.

Someone asked loudly: "My lord, we owe our payment for a month. The wife and children at home are waiting for dinner! When will the payment be made!"

"Yeah, prince, why do you serve as a soldier? It's not for money! When will the prince pay us?"

"We want to pay! We want to eat!"

...

One of the team yelled with his fist raised, and someone around his body immediately followed and yelled.

The roars of the men were screaming, and the mountains were shaking, and those who were targeted by the crowd could feel the resentment that was almost condensed into substance.

Pang Xiao let these people yell for a while, and when his voice weakened, he said, "The king understands the feelings of the brethren. This king has also been a soldier for ten years. He eats and lives with the soldiers in the barracks, where Don’t you know what the big guy feels like? Speaking of silver, I’m really nervous now. Where the prefect Yang is busy paying back the money that Lu Zhang borrowed, it’s almost peeling off. But the big guy is following this king. You can't let everyone do it for nothing!"

Pang Xiao's voice was raised high, and said, "As long as you listen to me and follow me, you are guaranteed to have money!"

"Good! Good!"

After all, there are only a few people in the crowd who are instructed to pick things up. Most of them are really gathered together for food. Besides, there are still a large number of people in the Pingnan Army who used to fight with Pang Xiao and Hu Ben. Those who have passed Dayan still remember Pang Xiao’s use of soldiers like a god, and the predecessors of the two armies.

Therefore, as soon as Pang Xiao called, this group of people agreed.

What are they for?Not for the silver.Since the prince can get the silver with them, just follow the prince, that's right!

Those in the crowd who were upset couldn't help looking at each other.

Dare to feel that they were busy jumping up and down, but they were ruined by Prince Zhongshun with a word?

Someone in the crowd said loudly again: "We don't believe it! The prince doesn't just want to hold us steady now, so let's go back and run the bill!"

"Yes! Unless the prince takes out the silver now, we will not believe it!"

Pang Xiao looked at the yelling people with a smile but Hu Zi followed his eyes and silently wrote down these people.

Pang Xiao said: "Brothers don't believe it at the moment, and this king can understand it. It is unfounded and unfounded, and it is not enough to win the trust. But what kind of person I am I must have fought with me. Brothers know it all. The spit with the last name Pang is a nail! He said that if you take everyone to get money, you want to take everyone to get money!"

Pang Xiao walked into the crowd a few steps with money, and said: "The north is fighting, everyone knows? Not long after the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, after many years of war, the treasury was called a clean one! To put it bluntly, the mouse went in and circled. Every child comes out crying!"

"Haha!" There was a burst of laughter in the crowd, and the tension immediately eased a lot.

Pang Xiao said: "So we big guys want to count on the money in the treasury. It's not easy to go high and far away. Lu Zhang previously borrowed a large sum of money from the Stone, but now he can’t pay it back. The four-pass number will not lend us money for payment, so this Wang thought about it, and thought of a big money."

"Wang Ye has any clever tricks, just say it."

Pang Xiao smiled, "It's hard to talk about great tricks. Like everyone, this king is a big boss, and his fists are hard. In recent days, this king went out and found that there are many hills nearby. There are many mountain bandits and road tyrants, and I don’t know how many people have been harmed.

"There is so much money in their cottage. This king intends to take people out to fight him, so that he can teach the group of tortoise grandchildren who are not sons of humanity. He has the strength to not come to defend the country, but he is shy. To bully the weak, it's a damn embarrassment to the man!"

As Pang Xiao said, he took a mouthful of righteous indignation.

Many men have been aroused by Pang Xiao’s remarks. They were originally soldiers, and they would naturally fight when they were soldiers. They had no battle to fight. They also had to practice in the barracks. Since the prince Ren Pingnan, the general Later, they practiced more diverse content, and they were equally tired throughout the day.

Tired is the same as tired, but faced with no money to pay, it is better to go out and follow the prince to suppress the bandits and rob him fiercely.

Thinking about this, everyone cheered, "Okay, fuck your damn vote!"

There were less than 3,000 people present, but more than 1,000 people agreed with Pang Xiao's decision.

However, a large number of people hesitated and did not speak.

They feel that it is only right to serve as soldiers and eat food, so why should they do extra work?Among them, even the instigators made up their minds to make Pang Xiao embarrassed.

Therefore, these people made different voices and protested one after another, resolutely not wanting to go out to suppress the bandits.

Pan Xiao looked at it for a long while with arms folded, and said with a smile: "Is there something big guy doesn't want to go."

Someone said loudly: "Why should we take the risk and pay for it!"

"Why?" Pang Xiao's eyes widened when he heard this, and said angrily, "You are soldiers! You must obey military orders!" Could it be that foreign enemies will invade this time, and you will shrink your necks for fear of life and death?"

Pan Xiao's sudden roar made everyone startled and silenced.

Pang Xiao said: "Our Pingnan Army is known as one hundred thousand brothers, and is stationed here. Could it be possible to watch those professed heroes bully the surrounding people? Isn't the big guy serving as a soldier only for food, without a bit of blood?"

Speaking of this, Pang Xiao didn’t wait for everyone’s reaction, and said: “The most enjoyable one today is everyone present. If you want to follow this king, you will gather here tomorrow morning. Go! But first say okay, get the silver, first settle the salary of the brothers who went with the king, and then solve the brothers who honestly can’t afford to stab children, and finally it’s you who jump high to find things and encounter Difficulties, but they shrink their necks and hide. Whether there is any left, you can look at good luck for yourself."

Pan Xiao waved his hand after he said, "It's all gone, go back and consider it yourself."

Pang Xiao strode towards the camp.Huzi immediately followed and said in a low voice, "Master, will they refuse to follow you?"

Pang Xiao smiled and said: "No. People die for money, birds die for food. At least half of these troublemakers will follow today," and then joked, "If there are more people going, it will not be enough to divide the spoils. ."

Huzi thought for a while, and it seemed that it was the same reason, so he laughed.

On the next day, as Pang Xiao expected, about a thousand people gathered on the school grounds.

Pang Xiao smiled and said: "Okay. Yesterday, I made a list of troubles. Actually, this king has already made a total of 2,633. There are more than 1,000 accounts that left today. Forget it, who went and who didn’t. Go, this king knows in his heart, anyway, our more than 1,000 brothers are enough."

After saying this, he ordered the departure.

Just after Pang Xiao led the crowd, the Ping Nan army who had been making trouble yesterday but did not want to go out together to suppress the bandits became a little nervous.

They knew about Pang Xiao's violent temper.They were really afraid that Pang Xiao would liquidate them when he turned around.

And this group of bandits with less than a thousand people was quite fortunate to follow Pang Xiao.

A group of people left the Pingnan Army Camp and traveled twenty miles westward to a dense forest near the official road. Pang Xiao waved his hand and stopped the team.

"Everyone is lying in wait here."

With an order from Pang Xiao, nearly a thousand people laid ambush in the woods on both sides of the road in an orderly manner.

The weather is fine today, and there is no rain or snow, so everyone stays in ambush without any effort.

It's just that, after waiting, I waited an hour.

At this time, some people began to become impatient, saying they were bandits, but didn't take them to attack which cottage, what would it be like to lie in ambush on the side of the road?

Everyone slandered, but someone dared to ask Pang Xiao in person.Everyone knows that Prince Zhongshun is so powerful, who would dare to touch Nilin face to face?

Pan Xiao was not at all anxious. He was carefully observing the movement on the official road with a straw stick in his mouth. Not long after, Hu Zi flew over and whispered a few words in his ear. People.

"The mountain bandits pretend to be merchants and want to transport the treasures back to the cottage, tell everyone to pay attention, only grab the goods, don't hurt people's lives, all the mountain bandits must be captured alive."

"Yes!" everyone around him whispered and scattered to send news.

After a while, everyone knew this strange command of Pang Xiao.

Suppress bandits, but only fortify goods, not kill people.

At this moment, a motorcade on the official road from the direction of the old capital to the outside of the city went from far to near.The front of the team was flying the flag of the show, and the sign of the "Four Links" was particularly eye-catching in the sun.

When Pang Xiao waved his hand, everyone took their place. When the team reached their ambush range, Pang Xiao led a group of men, and the tiger rushed down like a mountain.
