Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Page 274

After Guo Ye listened, he concentrated his eyes on the young man who was shouting, and he was happy in his heart, and he spoke in a set way. The tiger's power of the little brother is vivid in his eyes. This flattering buddy loves to listen.

However, Guo Ye had no time to be smug, and asked the gang member, "What's your name? Brother."

Hearing Guo Ye questioning himself alone, and calling himself a brother, the group felt their faces brighten, puffed up their chests and raised their heads and replied: "Master Guo, my name is Tong Hu, the tiger of Xiashanhu."

"Haha, good name, do you know that there is also a fierce man in my tent, surnamed Pang and named Feihu? You are Xiashanhu, he is Feitianhu. I hope you can be like Captain Pang in the future and become my right-hand man. At that time, you will be the two tigers under my command."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Pang Feihu jokingly.

Pang Feihu was not hypocritical, he stepped out and clasped his fists at the crowd and shouted: "Pang Feihu, under Brother Guo's tent, everyone is a brother, and a brother who treats each other with sincerity."

Pang Feihu's bright and frank demeanor immediately won the favor of the more than 1000 Cao Gang members in the audience, and they all showed anticipation.

The gang named Tong Hu also cupped their thick fists at Pang Feihu and respected him: "I've heard of Pang Feihu's name when I was a water bandit. I know that he was the most righteous team leader in the Longxi county government back then."

Pang Feihu had no choice but to nod with a reserved smile, and took two steps back to return to his position. At this time, he knew that he couldn't take away the light of his little brother just for his own sake.

Guo Ye looked at Pang Feihu's knowledge and thought, Brother Pang is becoming more and more like a general.

Then he turned his head to look at Tonghu, the members of the Cao Gang, and said loudly: "I will answer your question now, Tonghu, would you rather have a meal of big fish and meat, or a meal of cabbage, radish and sweet potato porridge, clear soup and little water for a lifetime?" ?”

Tong Hu was not stage-frightened, and replied loudly: "Master Guo is joking, who wouldn't want to eat meat every now and then? If you have hair and become bald, that's a great monk who is pure and pure."

"Ha ha……"

"Fuck, Tong Hu is so funny, even Mr. Guo dares to make jokes."

……

After Tong Hu finished speaking, more than 1000 people in the audience roared with laughter one after another.

Guo Ye didn't take it seriously, nodded and asked again: "Tong Hu, I'm for you. How was your life when you were a water bandit? After joining the Cao Gang, is there any fat on the table? In your pocket? Do you have spare money to go shopping in the city, find a fan, have a drink of flower wine and listen to a little song?"

"Uh……"

Tong Hu was immediately dumbfounded by Guo Ye's repeated questions, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

But after thinking about it for a while, he still bite the bullet and replied: "When I was a water bandit, the money was taken away by the head of the family. Maybe I can send some meat home during the New Year. After joining the Cao Gang, Mr. Sun It’s not mean to the brothers, but it’s impossible to eat meat all at once, let alone go to the city to drink flower wine and find fans to listen to ditty songs, we can only think about it in our dreams, hehe.”

As soon as this remark came out, it immediately resonated with more than a thousand people in the audience, who all nodded in agreement, and many people showed injustice and resentment on their faces.

Guo Ye did not signal the crowd to silence. On the contrary, he waved to the three regiments who were maintaining order not far away and called them over.

Three training regiments ran up one after another wearing armor and straddling swords, asking Guo Ye what his orders were.

Guo Ye smiled at the three of them, and asked warmly, "You three told them, how are you doing now after joining our regiment for training?"

The three of them were startled for a moment, then turned around and answered truthfully to everyone.

"Under Luo rice, regiment training envoy Master Guo's subordinates, we have three meals in the army, and we have meat for dinner."

"The king bestows the dragon, the regiment training envoy Master Guo's subordinates, our army will provide custom-made clothes for the autumn and winter seasons, and we will also release horses, meat, and grain during the festivals, which can supplement the old and young at home for a period of time."

"Chen Zengwang, the regiment training envoy Master Guo's subordinates, our army takes care of food and clothing, and pays three liang of money for recruits and five liang of money for veterans every month. With this monthly silver spare money, those with families can support their families To support the elderly on a living basis, for those who have no family, drinking a few meals of flower wine a month is more than enough. Of course, our fans sleep overnight, which is not enough."

"Hahaha……"

The last sentence of the soldier named Chen Zengwang immediately caused a burst of laughter, but behind the laughter, the [-] members of the Cao Gang present were secretly envious.

Regardless of food and clothing, there are subsidies for the New Year and holidays, and monthly salary, tsk tsk, this kind of treatment, even for a water bandit leader.

Guo Ye raised his hand to signal, stopped the noisy scene of laughing, and then asked the three regiment trainees, "I have treated you so kindly, have you ever asked for anything?"

After hearing this, the three of them immediately stood up with their feet together and shouted: "Don't be afraid of death, don't be afraid of tiredness, and serve Master Guo!"

Guo Ye nodded with a smile on his face, then waved his hand, signaling the three of them to return to their posts.

After the three left, Guo Ye continued to say to Tong Hu: "Wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat, dogs travel thousands of miles to eat shit. Brothers who follow me, have you ever been hungry or cold? Tong Hu, let me ask you, Would you rather be that meat-eating wolf, or that shit-eating dog?"

Tong Hu broke his neck, clenched his fists and shouted: "Master Guo, I understand, if Tong Hu wants to do it, he can be a meat-eating wolf, no, a meat-eating tiger."

Children can be taught, great kindness!

Guo Ye nodded in satisfaction, remembered Tong Hu's name and face in his mind, and then shouted to everyone: "What about you?"

"What would you like to do?"

shuh~~

shhhh~~

Led by caring people, more than 800 people shouted in unison:

"Eat meat wolf, eat meat wolf!"

"Don't be afraid of death, don't be afraid of being tired!"

"If you are loyal to Master Guo, you will have flower wine!"

"There is also Qianjiao Baimei's pink head..."

The scene was suddenly noisy, and the shouts were loud and powerful.

Even Pang Feihu, Cheng Erniu, Zhu Fatty, Gan Zhushou, Ruan Laosan and others waved their fists and shouted along with the slogans, their faces flushed with emotion, their eyebrows raised sharply and their eyes excited.

Only Guan Jiujiu looked at the situation, walked behind Guo Ye, waving a chicken feather fan, and whispered in a small voice: "Tsk tsk, the army's heart is available, the military commander is really a mouthful, student Admired."

Guo Ye didn't answer, but just shrugged his shoulders, saying that buddy is so awesome, how is it?

Guan Jiujiu continued to mutter to himself: "The Guo industry in Longxi has become a reality. Hehe, it seems that we have left the land of Sichuan and Shu, and our three thousand Longxi army will become famous."

Whether the speaker was intentional or not is irrelevant, but Guo Ye, the listener, was definitely moved.

Immediately, he said in a thoughtful manner: "Three Thousand Longxi Army? This name is quite domineering, so consider the quality."

After talking to himself, he raised his head and looked at the sky. The sun in the sky showed some signs of setting, and it was time to leave.

Then he shouted at Fatty Zhu: "Old Zhu, have the ships been recruited properly? Are there enough?"

Fatty Zhu immediately stepped forward and replied: "Old Zhu is doing business, brother, don't worry. The two silver boats have already docked on the shore, and we have also recruited nearly fifty white sailboats and fishing boats. If we set off now, we will definitely be able to catch up before the sun goes down." Arrived in Yizhou City."

Guo Ye gave Fatty Zhu a thumbs-up, then waved his right arm at everyone present, shaking off his incomparably cool white cloak, and shouted loudly:

"The time has come, let's take another look at Longxi City..."

About three to five minutes after the huge military training ground was silent, Guo Ye pulled out the horizontal knife from his waist, held it up high, like a general going out to fight, and shouted vigorously:

"Brothers, good men have ambitions in all directions, and I will follow my little brother to make contributions to Yizhou City!!!"
