Back Off, Let Me Come

Chapter 223: 223: The meeting is held [two in one]

  Chapter 223 223: The meeting is held [two in one]

  Shen Tang thinks that a meeting is a group of people getting together, you speak and I follow up, everyone works together, brainstorms, overcomes difficulties, and discusses strategies for advancing troops. The rebels occupying Xiaocheng are not weak, and they still have Gongxichou as a big killer!

   This is the meeting Shen Tang imagined.

  And the actual assembly—

   I won’t say whether the efficiency is high or not, but it is indeed much more exciting than she imagined. Ever seen a country fair? It almost smells like that. Shen Tang came with Gu Ren, but the seat arranged was far away from him, and the treatment was very different.

   Gu Ren frowned.

   Doesn't seem very happy with this arrangement.

  However, he was not the organizer of the slaughter of cattle and sheep, and the banquet of various forces, so he couldn't say anything, so he just sat down in his seat. As soon as he sat down, he saw a few familiar people. Pushing cups and changing cups, and chatting with each other with a smile, the scene seemed to be very harmonious.

only-

   Underneath the harmonious surface is an undercurrent.

  Shen Tang didn't come here alone, he also brought Gu Chi to pray for good.

   As soon as it came, Qishan was worried about Mr. Shen Xiaolang, who made this Mr. Shen Xiaolang so good at creating "surprises"? He still wants to live two more years.

  Secondly, how can there be any reason for the boss to work overtime alone?

   Gu Chi took the initiative to invite Ying to come, and bring him one more.

  Shen Tang had a strange expression on his face: "Aren't you too noisy now?"

Gu Chi tidied up his clothes slowly, the heat from the green plum wine hadn't dissipated, and his eyes were still a little blurred: "It's noisy, but it's also interesting... I really want to know how many of these people are sincerely responding to the so-called edict of…"

   Shen Tang was puzzled and asked: "Is there still someone fishing in troubled waters?"

  Gu Chi smiled and said, "The drunkard doesn't mean to drink..."

  Shen Tang was at a loss when he heard the words.

   Coming here in response to the edict, it was naturally the bait thrown by Zheng Qiao, but Gu Chi said, "The drunkard's intention is not to drink"...Could it be that there are people here for other purposes? Shen Tang suddenly thought of something, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and he shook his head.

   "...If so, the ambition is not small..."

   In addition to the rebels under King Zhu’s account, Xiaocheng also has the “unaccounted for” national seal... Tsk tsk tsk, these forces came so quickly, it is true that "drunkards don't care about wine", they care about the national seal. Shen Tang curled his lips and agreed to take Gu Chi with him.

Even with the addition of Gu Chi with a sick face, Shen Tang and his party are only three shabby people, all three of them are literary scholars, and there is no brave warrior with a sense of security at the altitude, so they were assigned to the town without accident. A remote corner.

   What is even more depressing is—

   There is a row of brothers in front of Shen Tang.

   This is also a big brother who is tall and burly, and he is so big when he sits still, completely blocking Shen Tang's sight.

  Unless Shen Tang stood up, he would not be able to see the faces of the leaders of the forces sitting in front of the camp. She looked at the slightly raised butterfly bones and strong back of her brother in front of her with some despair, and listened to the chattering and discussing voices around her.

  Shen Tang: "..."

  (╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻

   Secretly beat the table!

  She also wants to breathe the high-altitude air! !

   Gu Chi chuckled slightly, and Shen Tang glared at him. Perhaps he was intimidated by the sharp look in his eyes, and changed his words in a very timely manner: "Shen Lang is still young, and he can still grow taller in the future... After all, the foundation is here, so don't panic."

  Shen Tang then withdrew his gaze.

   Gu Chi said: "Shen Lang—"

  Shen Tang folded his hands on his chest, still a little angry.

  The tone of the response was also a bit angry: "What are you doing?"

Because of the deceitful way of literati, Gu Chi is proficient in the trick of multitasking - listening carefully to everyone's voices, paying attention to what they are saying, and at the same time talking to Shen Tang: "Shen Lang thinks-you are among these people Appreciable?"

  Shen Tang asked back: "I like it?"

  She pointed at the back of her dear friend in front of her and said: "I didn't even see what they looked like, I just looked at the back..."

  The meeting experience is extremely poor.

  Gu Chi said helplessly, "I'm not referring to their appearance."

  No faction is based on face.

   Without waiting for Shen Tang to answer, he added: "It's not referring to the back, Shen Lang observes their words and deeds, is there any hero among them?"

  Shen Tang: "..."

   Seriously, she was even more confused.

  Which Yingjie can tell from a chat or a meeting?

   If you don't fight with real swords and guns or get along with each other for a while, who knows if you have real skills or silver-like guns? Shen Tang didn't know them at all, and shook his head honestly: "I haven't figured out which one is right now, just watch."

  Gu Chi said, "I found one down here."

  Shen Tangjing (eight) spirit (gua) excited: "Who?"

  She was curious about who would make Gu Chi pleasing to her eyes...

   You must know that the scribe's way of this fellow is "mind reading".

  The selection criteria must be very strict, and only those who are the same on the inside and the outside can make him look high. Because she was too curious, she couldn't help leaning forward to get closer, for fear that she would miss the gossip.

  Gu Chi was dumbfounded when he saw this: "Didn't Shen Lang think it was me?"

  Shen Tang: "...Are you kidding me?"

   Gu Chi smiled and took away the wine cup from Shen Tang's table.

   said: "Shen Lang can guess."

  Shen Tang: "..."

  She had every reason to suspect that Gu Chi said that the call was to cheat her out of the wine! Cursing his lips in secret, Hu Shi usually took the two plates of snacks into his arms, covering Gu Chi's coveting eyes.

  The Qishan eyes on one side looked at Gu Chi inexplicably.

   Avoid Shen Tang and communicate in private.

  The eyes of the two met several times, and you came and went.

   Before they could come to a conclusion, the camp that was as noisy as a market slowly quieted down, except for the breathing of the people, only the crackling of the lamps and candles burning. It turns out that the pre-war conference has officially begun! Shen Tang also changed his sloppiness and sat upright.

  She was staring at the back of her dear friend in front of her. At this moment, a strange middle-aged man's voice came from the head of the tent.

  The man said in a calm voice: "Now, according to the imperial edict, all the lords are gathered here to fight against the rebellious thieves. Is there a strategy for advancing the army?"

  The voice fell, followed by a man with a slightly sharp voice: "I think that if you want to kill the rebels, you must first establish a leader."

  Shen Tang's eyes lit up.

  She is familiar with this process!

   Followed by Versailles showing off.

  The so-called leader is naturally the one with the strongest strength, the best family background, the highest reputation, and the largest territory... among all the people! It is estimated that it will take a while.

Shen Tang can't drink alcohol, he can only drink tea to moisten his throat, and while drinking, he secretly said in his heart: "It's bitter, I hope they choose a leader soon, otherwise I drink too much tea, I'm afraid my bladder can't bear it... I ran away halfway through the meeting It’s not okay to go out to the toilet…”

Restricted by the altitude, she couldn't see the speakers. She could only listen to their voices and footsteps, and judge their approximate age, height, and strength: "Struggling for power and profit is an instinct deep in your bones. Joe didn't come or died, do you really think he is a puppet with no power?"

  Gu Chi was even more leisurely.

   His altitude is not so miserable.

With the addition of Shen Lang, he found that this kind of occasion is not very boring - he can observe the speaker while proofreading Shen Tang's complaints. A few different kinds of fun.

  He agrees with Shen Tang's point of view.

  Although the so-called leader can restrain everyone to obey orders, he can also do some small actions in private—such as tilting resources to his own side. However, it's okay to lose this battle. Once won, the so-called leader will become a thorn in Zheng Qiao's eyes and flesh.

  A leader who is expected by everyone, but also has a reputation, family background, strength and territory, it is strange that Zheng Qiao would not mind...

   However, not everyone is stupid.

  Some people jumped out to compete, and some people lacked interest.

   The battle for the leader is not very intense.

   Soon the leader was chosen.

  A man surnamed "Wu" is young, about 30 years old, with a neatly trimmed goatee, and his clothes seem low-key, but in fact, the word "expensive" appears in the low-key. The most important thing is - this person has the strength of half a county!

   Among the crowd, the most powerful.

   Don't think that half a county is very small. We must know that today's mainland is divided into fragments and hundreds of countries are bristling. Some small countries only have a land area of ​​half a county or a county. They are caught between big countries and struggle to survive. A typical example of this is Chu Guo back then!

  This man with the surname "Wu" is not the nominal owner of this half-county, but he does have real troops.

  As soon as he stood up, everyone else fell silent.

   Just kidding, it's not an order of magnitude at all!

   How does two to three thousand troops compare with tens of thousands of troops?

  Shen Tang was puzzled, and murmured in private: "Such an idiot, why don't you hibernate and recharge your energy, how come you come to participate in this—he is not afraid of being targeted by Zheng Qiao, and he will be wiped out secretly?"

  Shoot the bird!

  Shen Tang suddenly thought of Gu Chi's previous question.

Understood.

  This man surnamed "Wu" probably came for Guoxi.

  As long as he gets the Imperial Seal, he is qualified to be on an equal footing with Zheng Qiao in a sense, and he has the strength of half a county, and he can absorb those forces oppressed by Zheng Qiao, and he can develop in a short time. This is seeking wealth and wealth—

  A consensus was reached, and with a leader, everyone burned incense and drank blood under the leadership of a man surnamed "Wu". Only then did Shen Tang see the appearance of the new leader in the gap between the crowd. It was almost the same as she imagined, but there was an indescribable arrogance between her brows.

  Speak and look at people without squinting.

  Because the conditions were very limited, the blood alliance did not choose another auspicious day, but directly used local materials.

  The new leader adjusts his clothes, wears a sword, cleans his hands and burns incense.

  One bow, two bows, and another bow.

   Read an impassioned speech.

  Drink a bowl of wine dripping with the blood of livestock, and finally throw the bowl to express your determination! Everyone else followed suit, except for Shen Tang...

   Except Shen Tang!

  Shen Tang who was forced to become the focus: "..."

  The new leader noticed Shen Tang standing in the corner. Seeing her immature face and her remote location, he guessed her power in his heart. I don't think such a small force can have much effect, but it doesn't cooperate with the process...

   This is a big problem.

  The new leader had a gentle but majestic smile on his face, and before approaching, he asked from a distance, "What's the name of this young man?"

  Shen Tang pursed his lips, never expecting such a development, so he could only bite the bullet and reply: "I'm sinking into Shen Tang."

  The new leader asked: "Why doesn't Lord Shen drink this wine?"

   Just ask her directly if she has a problem with the alliance.

  Others looked at Shen Tang with complicated and inexplicable eyes.

  Shen Tang had no choice but to say half truth and half lie: "This, this, I can't drink enough... I'm afraid of making a fool of myself, so I didn't drink."

Her drinking capacity is a problem, and another problem is that she thinks it is not hygienic to drink raw livestock blood—generally blood alliances use chicken blood, but the person to be crusaded is the "King Pig", so the livestock are selected as pigs or slaughtered on the spot the pig! The smell is soaring!

  Shen Tang glanced at it secretly, the pig didn't pay much attention to hygiene, and was still struggling and howling terribly during the bloodletting...

   If you really drink it, you won’t get sick, right?

   I was really worried that a group of people would sacrifice their blood to fight against King Zhu, but the plague broke out halfway, and everyone died young... But after thinking about it, swine fever is not like chicken plague, it seems that it will not infect people?

  She was about to grit her teeth and drink it. Unexpectedly, the people around her moved faster and faster, which made her look like a strange person.

  Not even giving her a chance to make amends.

  The new leader obviously does not accept this rhetoric.

  The eyes of other people also added a bit of unkindness.

  Only Gu Ren stood up to make peace for Shen Tang, he said: "Mr. Shen is indeed young and can't drink well, how about a cup of tea?"

The new leader didn't speak, but there were others who were "outspoken". He sneered: "Young? If you are really young, you should stay at home and be protected by your father and brother, or enjoy the warm and fragrant nephrite, and be contaminated with the corrupt style of drunkenness, not Staying among the heroes, on such a solemn occasion, add trouble to us!"

   Someone couldn't help but laugh out loud.

  Shen Tang's complexion changed, he looked at the man with a bit of unkind eyes, and declined Gu Ren's suggestion to replace the dirty wine.

   sneered: "Okay! Then you should keep this in mind, and you have to stop me from drinking like crazy later!"

   After finishing speaking, he raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.

   With a headache, Qi Shan stepped forward to help the drunk Shen Tang.

  The new leader also agreed with the "outspoken" speech in his heart. After all, Shen Tang is really too young, and his stature is not as tall as his youngest son. What is this kind of child doing? But he didn't expect that Shen Tang would really be drunk instantly! I closed my eyes on the spot!

   "He is..."

  Qi Shan sighed: "My Lord is drunk..."

  New leader: "..."

  Everyone: "..."

   Really drunk? ? ?

   Few of the people present were ordinary people, all of them were literary scholars and warriors with keen five senses. Shen Tang could still feel the change of breath, and they were speechless.

   Heartily slandering Shen Tang for destroying the solemn bloodbath occasion, but some people also noticed the prayer for goodness with a weak presence.

  The man opened his eyes wide in shock, and immediately called out to him.

   "Are you Qi Yuanliang???"

  Because of being too shocked, he lost his voice.

  Qi Shan followed the sound, his expression froze slightly.

  Gu Chi raised his eyebrows, and asked secretly: "Are you old?"

  Pray for kindness on a calm face.

   While responding to Gu Chi: "The former colleague..."

  Gu Chi understood instantly.

  If there are former colleagues, there will naturally be former masters.

  The scribe's way of praying for charity is well known to Lord Fei.

  Qi Shan had no choice but to say, "Long time no see, Brother Qin."

  The new leader looked at his confidant and asked a little curiously.

   "Qin Qing, do you know each other?"

  _(`”∠)_

   I overestimated myself, another update was in the early morning, and there were still two thousand words to finish... Gan
