Chapter 34: You know my methods, friend!

~8 min read 1,449 words

In the rugged mountains and forests,

The former Dali general Wang Ping was currently looking up with a face full of bewilderment.

Because he really couldn't believe that he would fall to this point.

He was clearly ordered to guard the border, so why had he become a prisoner?

If Situ Yaozu was a "young man" before coming down the mountain, then Wang Ping was just an idiot who only knew how to fight.

After all, as the king, the thing the Duan clan of Dali feared most was subordinates not following orders.

Even if Wang Ping didn't take the money, it had already been delivered to his hands; if you don't go back to explain, you can't make it clear!

Wang Ping was even worse; he just said that the "pirates" sent money, and there was no other news. But the problem was, you didn't send the money back either!

How was the Duan clan of Dali supposed to think? You, Wang Ping, already had an army, and now someone is sending you money; were you planning to rebel in the future?

Thus, Wang Ping was sent onto the cart just like that.

Just as the carriage was moving, shouts of killing suddenly erupted from both sides of the road.

Charging down with a long sword, Situ Yaozu directly hacked the leading cavalryman to the ground.

Facing this shocking scene, Wang Ping couldn't help but be stunned.

Because the attire of these people didn't look like Dali soldiers at all.

"General Wang, we have come to save you!"

Looking at Wang Ping, Niu Er roared directly.

And after hearing this, Wang Ping was almost scared silly, because he hadn't asked anyone to save him.

"Wang Ping, you actually really colluded with the enemy!"

Roaring in anger, the escorting official on the side couldn't help but shout.

"Kill him! General Wang is an important pawn we planted in Dali; the Duan clan must never discover this!"

Raising his sword and roaring, Niu Er charged up directly.

And after hearing Niu Er's words, the official was even more terrified, his scalp tingling as he said, "Wang Ping, you thief, you hid so deep!"

Wang Ping:...

A few minutes later, except for the official who escaped, everyone else lay in a pool of blood.

Looking at this scene in disbelief, Wang Ping said in a breakdown, "You, you have such poisonous methods! Now what will happen to my family in Dali!"

But just as Wang Ping was roaring, Situ Yaozu on the side walked up and said, "Your family was snatched away by us two days ago. Otherwise, why do you think the Duan clan would arrest you!"

"What? My family!"

Looking at Situ Yaozu in disbelief, Wang Ping immediately became agitated.

"It was precisely because your family was lost that you were arrested. Otherwise, do you think a mere bit of silver would make the Duan clan dismiss a general?"

Looking at Wang Ping with a smile, Situ Yaozu explained.

Because from the first day the money was sent, Zhang Cheng had already started using "dirty tricks."

First, he used money to paralyze the Dali army, and then he sent people to take Wang Ping's family away.

As for the families of generals on an expedition, they should have been heavily guarded. Why was Zhang Cheng able to do all this? That depends on whether the money was enough!

You must know that in this world, many people can do anything for money.

Lincoln and Kennedy had their skulls opened when they blocked the way, let alone Wang Ping's family!

At the "pirate" camp across the river,

Smelling the fragrance wafting over, Wang Ping swallowed his saliva and said, "Is this what you usually eat?"

"Yes, today we just added marinated eggs and ham sausages; usually it's chicken legs!"

Hearing Wang Ping's words, Situ Yaozu explained.

"What? You usually eat so luxuriously?"

Looking at Situ Yaozu in astonishment, Wang Ping couldn't say a word.

Because even the 20,000-strong army he led only had millet cakes and soybean paste every day!

The instant noodles Zhang Cheng sent last time made all the officers in the entire camp think it was a rare treasure, but he didn't expect that here, it was just food provided to ordinary soldiers!

Looking at Wang Ping's incredulous expression, Situ Yaozu smiled and said, "Let's go, General Wang, your wife and children are waiting for you!"

Walking in front of a huge military tent, Wang Ping couldn't help but say, "The place where your general lives is truly luxurious!"

"That, my cousin isn't here!"

Looking at Wang Ping awkwardly, Situ Yaozu explained.

"What? Not here?"

Looking around, Wang Ping asked in surprise.

"Over there!"

Pointing to a small tent not far away, Situ Yaozu shrugged his shoulders.

Because when this tent was set up, it was to cover people's eyes.

After all, Zhang Cheng knew the ferocity of the locals in the Southwest very well; with one "hot horse," people would swarm up.

Fearing being taken as a target and killed, Zhang Cheng specially set up a fake tent, just to avoid being "accidentally injured."

Looking at this scene with a twitching mouth, what could Wang Ping say? He could only give a thumbs up and say, "This general is truly cautious!"

Hearing Wang Ping's words, Niu Er picked his nose with disdain and said, "What caution! My Lord is just afraid of death!"

"Niu Er, I heard that!"

Just as the few were approaching the tent, Zhang Cheng's roar came out.

Hearing this, Niu Er immediately ran up and said, "My Lord, General Wang has been snatched back!"

"Snatched?"

Looking at Situ Yaozu awkwardly, Wang Ping was completely depressed now.

Because he was really curious how someone like Niu Er managed to survive!

Niu Er: Old Niu here was able to walk from Bianliang to here entirely thanks to a good set of skills!

Zhang Cheng: Someone, drag him down and castrate him!

Entering the tent,

Wang Ping looked at the child sitting at the table eating instant noodles and immediately exclaimed, "Wife!"

"Husband!"

Looking at Wang Ping, his wife, who had been worried for so long, finally felt relieved.

"Sit, General Wang!"

Looking at Wang Ping with a smile, Zhang Cheng laughed.

He was able to come to the Great Song entirely by luck.

Whether he had the aura of a king, Zhang Cheng didn't know, but when it came to dirty methods, he could boast that no one could rival him.

You know Lord Wu'an Li Mu, right? He was able to hammer Wang Jian, who destroyed the six kingdoms, and even came with a free Yang Duanhe, and the protagonist!

The Lu guy next door was also beaten with his hands in his pockets, not daring to fight back!

Lu Yan: Turn on the mic, I told you to turn on the mic!

Shadow Legion: Please turn on location sharing!

Zhang Cheng: He's anxious, hehe, he's anxious!

But such a fierce man, who completely suppressed the momentum of Great Qin's westward expansion and made the Xiongnu not dare to go south for ten years, was eventually carried away by Guo Kai!

The money was sent in the morning, Li Mu left in the afternoon, and Handan was broken in the evening...

Not being able to win is normal; after all, not everyone is called the Butcher Bai Qi or the Military Immortal Han Xin. But if you can't win and still insist on going up, then you have a problem!

Zhang Cheng knew very well that as a "sixth-man," he definitely couldn't beat Wang Ping in a head-on confrontation, so he chose to find Guo Kai!

Guo Kai: Famous general of the Warring States, who else but me!

Li Mu:...

"Here is a chest of gold and silver jewelry, worth 50,000 taels. Take those 20,000 men, help me take Dali, and I will give you another 200,000 taels. I provide the troops, I provide the men, and I only want Dali!"

Looking at Wang Ping seriously, Zhang Cheng signaled Situ Yaozu beside him to open the money chest.

And just as the dazzling gold and silver jewelry appeared, Wang Ping pursed his lips and didn't speak.

Looking at Wang Ping, Zhang Cheng exhaled a thick mist and said, "We are pirates; you know my methods, friend!"

Raising his head, Wang Ping looked at Zhang Cheng and said, "I am a Dali man; may I ask the General, can you spare the Duan clan?"

"If you want to spare them, then spare them!"

Looking at Wang Ping seriously, Zhang Cheng said with a full smile.
