Chapter 197
Wu Tong stood on the gate of the inspector, took a sip of wine with the wine bag.

The wind was strong, blowing his face a little dry.

Now it is October 25th, the weather changes as it says, and suddenly it gets cold. The days in Guancheng seem to be a bit bitter.

In previous years, Wu Tong had already returned to live in Junlianzhou City, but not this year, the Mongolian army will call this year.

Four days ago, he had seen the wolf smoke.

So he also summoned the soldiers from the village, and now there are more than [-] people in Guancheng.

I just don't know when the Mongolian army will arrive...

Wu Tong suddenly thought of Li Xia, the Qingfu county lieutenant who passed by a few days ago... for some reason, he insisted on taking a walk on Wuchi Road, and suffered for it, and he didn't know why.

Now that the Mongolian army is crossing the border, they are probably dead.

Wu Tong felt a little regretful, he didn't like Li Xia, he felt that the other party was too deep, he didn't like to drink, he didn't like to talk, it was hard to understand.

But to do business, personal perception is not important, but cooperation is important.

Pity.

Of course, this matter is still uncertain. He has sent spies to the south to explore the way, and he will not know until the spies come back...

Suddenly, a village soldier ran up ahead, and shouted at the foot of Guancheng: "Inspection, County Lieutenant Li and the others are back!"

Wu Tong was taken aback.

……

"Hahaha, brother Li is very capable, really good, to be able to get so many heads!"

After seeing the head and the seized items brought back by Li Xia, Wu Tong's hearty laughter resounded in Guancheng.

Li Xia talked about the cause and effect, and asked him to send someone to help treat the wounded, and finally asked, "How about I have a few words with Brother Wu alone?"

"Okay!"

Wu Tong deserved to be straightforward, and led Li Xia into a side hall, still sighing, repeating what he said before.

"I didn't expect, I didn't expect that Brother Li is a capable person, and he can get so many heads."

"How about selling it to Brother Wu?"

Wu Tong squinted his eyes, a smile soon appeared on his face, and said: "Brother Li doesn't talk much, but he does things very straightforwardly."

Li Xia said: "I know Brother Wu wants to buy it, so I could wait for you to speak first. But we need to cooperate in the future, so there is no need to calculate each other like this."

"Hahaha……"

Wu Tong didn't seem to have finished what he wanted to say, so he laughed for a while, pondered, and asked, "How does Brother Li want to sell it?"

"I want to keep the armor, weapons, and war horses, keep ten heads, and sell the remaining 55 to Brother Wu."

"Including the centurion?"

"Including the centurion."

Wu Tong took a few steps and said, "An ordinary Mongolian soldier has [-] guns, and a centurion has [-] guns. How about it?"

Li Xia said: "A total of two thousand guns."

Wu Tong hesitated, and subconsciously wanted to serve the wine bowl, only to realize that the wine hadn't been placed yet, so he took a sip from the wine pouch on his waist.

"It's okay, brother Li is a straightforward person, and my brother is no longer a mother-in-law... That's the price!"

This matter was settled simply.

As far as Li Xia is concerned, many of the patrolmen under his command are Baiya, and in addition to fighting in different places, even if the head is handed in, he will not be rewarded.If he doesn't ask for immediate promotion, he might as well sell it.

As for selling more than 30 pens, only rewarding five to ten pens to his subordinates... This is not the case, he also needs to pay a pension.What's more, it doesn't matter whether it's paying salaries or purchasing armaments, he doesn't spend the money on himself.

Wu Tongji was straightforward, and after the conversation, he asked directly: "Brother Chief sent someone to marinate, how will I pay? Gold, silver, coins, Huiqi, which brother Li wants, brother will send someone to get it immediately."

Li Xia didn't expect him to be so forthright, and asked, "Can I get it right away?"

"Pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand." Wu Tong laughed loudly, and said triumphantly: "Brother, when doing business, he just says the word 'letter'."

Li Xia pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked: "Has Brother Wu ever fought a war?"

Wu Tong deliberately stared, pretending to be angry, then laughed again, and said: "Of course I fought, my brother also led his clansmen to fight for the top of the mountain when he was young, haha, that's when he gradually became the patrol inspector."

"Have you fought against the Mongolian army?"

"How can there be any battles in the south of Shu? Haha, this is the first time the Mongolian army has fought in the south of Shu. Here comes the opportunity for you and my brothers to make contributions..."

Li Xia was silent for a moment, and then began to talk about how much of the two thousand pens needed cash, and how much needed gold and silver.

The money was delivered the next day.

Li Xia rewarded his subordinates, and asked Kong Muxi's leaders to take the corpses and the seriously wounded back to Qingfu County for burial and treatment separately, and also brought back the pensions of the dead for distribution.

Only then did Wu Tong understand what Li Xia meant.

"Look at Brother Li's meaning... Could it be that he wants to stay and help brother guard the gate?"

"Yes." Li Xia said: "I want to see Brother Wu show off his power, even if he can wave the flag and shout."

Wu Tong was half joking and half serious: "Brother Li, you, a hundred people, are stationed in my Guancheng and eat my food, but you have to pay extra..."

~~
There is a mountain named "Niuzhai Mountain" more than [-] miles southwest of Xunsi Guancheng, and there is a village named "Niuzhai Mountain" on the mountain.

A corpse dangled in the air, and the two Mongolian soldiers who carried the corpse casually threw it off the cliff.

The Mongolian army centurion named "Baolide" glanced at them and walked into the cattle village.

"General."

Ah Shu was eating wild boar meat, the meat was not cooked enough and was still bloody, so he didn't care.

"Catch up?"

Bao Lide said: "No, those Song people are too good at running, let them run into Xunsiguan City."

Ashu was furious, threw the bone in his hand on the ground, and cursed: "This can make people run away?! The horse has a leucorrhea?!"

"The road is broken, and the horse can't run anymore." Bao Lide replied, while scratching his head, pinched a lice, and crushed it to death with a "slap".

Ashu's anger came and went quickly, he threw the remaining wild meat into Bao Lide's arms, and said, "Follow me."

Soon, he led several centurions to the top of the mountain to watch.

The Niuzhai is not too high, but you can see Guancheng in the distance from here.

"What's the name of that mountain?"

"Hengzi Mountain."

Ashu nodded, and said: "Guancheng is sandwiched between Hengzi Mountains, if you want to go there, you have to take it down."

"Hey." Bao Lide held the wild boar and bit it, and said: "The Shimen pass has been taken down, this small and broken pass city is easy to fight."

"First pull out all the nearby stockades, so as not to be ambushed by the Song people."

As Ashu said, he pointed casually, and said, "Makouyan is pulled out first, there is fear of falling rocks there; the stockade on the east mountain is shoveled, and the Song army spies can see us marching there..."

"So troublesome? Will you be too careful this time?"

"Duke is already dead." A Shu said, "From Dali to Wumeng and then to Sichuan, where has a centurion died? Get up."

"Yes."

"It took me two or three days to wipe out all these old barbarians. Then climb up Hengzi Mountain and jump into this small break-through city. This time, none of these Song soldiers will be left alive."

Bao Lide threw the bone in his hand and said loudly: "Understood!"

A Shu spat, and said again: "Tell the soldiers to bear with it, and we will be able to get out of this broken road in no time, and then our Mongolian cavalry will rule the world, kill whoever you want."

"Hahaha"

The generals laughed, full of confidence...
