Back Off, Let Me Come

Chapter 150: Action (8)

slippery?

Encountered slippery at this time?

The captain's heart sank, his face trembled and twitched slightly.

"Lieutenant Yang, what happened?"

Zhai Huan, who was at the rear of the tax collection team, noticed that the team had stopped and it was not the time to rest, so he rode forward to ask.

"There is slippery ground ahead, I can't walk."

When the captain saw that the visitor was Zhai Huan, although he was unhappy, he did not show it on his face. However, he was habitually cold-faced and his expression was not very good. Zhai Huan didn't pay attention to this detail. He had "worked" with the captain for a few days, and his likes and dislikes had little to do with him.

"Slippery?"

Zhai Huan's sensitive nerves were touched.

He turned to the scout and asked, "Is there any sign of man?"

Although slippery ground is a relatively common natural disaster, and we often encounter it when marching and fighting, it happened to be this sensitive moment, and they happened to encounter it at this time, so he couldn't help but think about it.

The scout glanced at his real superior out of the corner of his eye. Seeing that the latter had no objection, he replied: "After careful inspection, there are no signs of man-made behavior."

Zhai Huan frowned.

Is it a coincidence that there is no artificial sign?

He asked again: "How long will it take to clean up?"

A powerful and courageous warrior can even shake a mountain with one person, and it is not a problem to clear a road in a short time.

The scout's reply disappointed him. Because the mountain was unstable and he could not violently clear the way, he was still optimistic about half a day's time. If there are other unexpected situations along the way, I'm afraid it will be delayed for a whole day.

This scout is also a native of Sibao County and is very familiar with the terrain and roads in the county. According to his experience, if he chooses to take a detour, he will be delayed by at most an hour compared to the original route. This time can be completely compensated by reducing rest time.

Zhai Huan was noncommittal about this suggestion.

The heavy rains of the past few days may not have only affected the nearby official road. Who knows that the detour will not encounter the same trouble?

However, he is not the decision maker.

Zhai Huan asked, "What do Captain Yang think?"

The captain was hesitant.

Wasting half a day clearing the road?

Although it is safe and secure, the scout also said that a second landslide may occur midway, which may cause more time delays and miss the handover moment. If it is a detour, the risk is unknown...

He hesitated for half a quarter of an hour.

Zhai Huan is not easy to urge.

Zhai Le has a little complaint here.

He was riding on the horse, leaning towards his cousin, and Zhai Huan made a tacit understanding to prevent outsiders from prying. Zhai Le complained confidently: "Brother, is that captain so annoying in his work?"

What is there to hesitate about this kind of thing?

Of course it is to send someone to clear the road.

As for the detour, it will delay a day and a half?

Please, use the fake team to confuse the eyes of others. Not to mention it is delayed by one day, so what if it is delayed by ten days and a half?

detour?

no need!

Zhai Huan's face was slightly different, and a terrible guess flashed through his heart. His eyes seemed to be inadvertently scanning the boxes of tax money boxes with seals, and his chest bulged several times.

He rarely became strict: "Ale!"

Zhai Le instantly wilted into frost and beat the eggplant.

Ever since he got the word "serious", he didn't like others calling him that anymore. The title "Ale" was too delicate and not manly enough. My cousin also knows his secret intentions, and rarely calls him like this, but once he does...

Zhai Le was almost intimidated in seconds.

He pursed his lips in grievance, and if he complained in private, he wouldn't offend him in front of others... That wouldn't be the case, would it?

Zhai Huan solemnly said: "Ale, be careful next time."

Zhai Le was puzzled: "Is there a situation?"

"There is a problem with the tax bank."

Zhai Le was frightened: "Is there a problem? What can I do with the tax money that was originally fake... Ah, what do you mean, brother... is it true?"

Zhai Huan replied very softly: "Yes."

There are [eight] [nine] out of ten that are true...

If not, why would Captain Yang worry about wasting time?

Zhai Huan patted his cousin on the shoulder and warned: "Always be vigilant to prevent secret assassinations. Your own safety is the most important thing."

As for tax money?

It's best to keep it, but it's God's will if you can't.

After all, he doesn't know that this is real tax money, does he?

If you really meet a powerful enemy, why would you risk your life and put yourself and A Le in danger for a batch of fake tax money?

The only thing I didn't expect was that the sheriff was a ruthless person.

How dare you take the risk.

Even Zhai Huan, who was as cold as he was, felt a little angry.

After a while, Captain Yang finally came to the conclusion, gritted his teeth, and decided to take a risk and take a detour by taking another more remote path. There are almost no travelers on this path, and it is almost always a narrow mountain road that can only accommodate a carriage.

There are dense forests on both sides of the mountain road.

The uneven and muddy mountain road that has not yet dried out added a lot of difficulty to the team. It is difficult for ordinary people to walk with light clothes, let alone push vehicles full of heavy boxes. Within half an hour, some soldiers were out of breath.

It's already autumn, but it's hot and sweating profusely.

"Come on! Why are you stopping?" Captain Yang was riding a horse with a sullen face. Seeing the soldiers walking slower and slower, he became angry and shouted harshly, "You have only traveled so long to be so tired? You can't even crawl. You have to get up! How many heads do you have to pay for the time delay?"

The soldiers dare not speak.

Even Captain Yang's deputy officers only dared to watch.

So the soldier gritted his teeth and walked for most of the hour.

In the end, he couldn't stand it any longer. The soldier who was whipped by Captain Yang begged for mercy: "I wouldn't move unless I waited. The road is really too difficult to walk, not to mention people. Even the mules have to lie down when they come. General." Come on, let me stop and have a rest."

How long has it been?

His clothes were completely wet with sweat, and his whole body was drenched in sweat as if he had been fished out of water. His limbs were exhausted, swollen, and sore. Not only did Mo Shu push the tax collection vehicle away, but even if he was asked to walk a few more steps, his chest was burning with pain and he couldn't breathe.

They have practiced martial arts, but their physical strength is only slightly better than that of ordinary people. They are not even low-ranking soldiers. Even the carts and carts carry five to six hundred kilograms. Even if they work together and work together, one person pushes and the other pulls. Such a muddy and uneven road can't stand it.

Yang Duwei's face darkened when he heard the words.

Zhai Le, who was at the rear, was not used to his behavior of scolding and whipping his subordinates frequently, but when he saw this scene, he burst out laughing for some reason. Although he reacted quickly, he still leaked the news, earning an unfriendly glare from Captain Yang.

Zhai Huan was helpless: "What are you laughing at?"

Zhai Le: "I laughed because I suddenly thought of something funny."

Zhai Huan asked him again: "What's so funny?"

"Brother, do you think this posture looks like that group of Liangshan heroes who outsmarted the birthday plan? Unfortunately, this captain's surname is Yang..."

Zhai Huan: "..."

There are countless contents recorded on the fragments of the Thief Star, including powerful and unpredictable civil and military spirits, as well as popular novels, such as "Water Margin" that Zhai Le liked very much, but Zhai Huan didn't like it, so he couldn't poke his cousin. jokes.

Zhai Le couldn't help it, and whispered: "It will be really interesting if a group of date sellers and wine sellers appear later..."

In order to keep her manicure on for a few more days, Shiigugu plans to give up her laptop’s soft keyboard and switch to an external mechanical keyboard.

I dug out the keyboard for the February monthly ticket lottery (it is said that the red axis is very suitable for typing) and connected it to the docking station.

I'm used to laptop keyboards, so I didn't feel comfortable using a mechanical keyboard at first. I always pressed the wrong keys and made typos. The feel was a bit weird, but the crackling sound of typing was really fun. Once you get familiar with it for a few days, it should be fine, hehe.
