Chapter 30 Bandits or Water Pirates
Liu Ziyi waved his hand and his elite soldiers pushed the two of them up. Gao Chong saw that it was the escaped thief leader, and the knight who was injured by Gao Chong's overthrow of the war horse.
Liu Ziyi said: "On the way we came, we happened to see these two guys in a panic. We knew they must have done something bad, so we caught the little prince. Is it the one you are looking for?"
Gao Chong laughed and said, "It's good! It's these two guys! Thank you, Brother Liu, please follow me into the village. I'll interrogate them carefully."
Liu Ziyi nodded, and then everyone entered Gaojia Town together. As soon as they arrived at the village, they saw a large group of people tied up in the wasteland, some people wearing messy clothes and holding farm tools in their hands standing there neatly.
Liu Ziyi nodded slightly when he saw this. Although these brave men were not well equipped, their energy was stronger than most of the elite Song army he had ever seen.
"I really admire my little prince for his good governance of the army!" Liu Ziyi congratulated Gao Chong.
Gao Chong smiled and said, "Brother Liu has a rest first, I'll interrogate these people first."
Liu Ziyi nodded, he, Shao Yun and others retreated to the back, and quietly watched how Gao Chong dealt with these people.
Someone moved a chair and Gao Chong sat on it with a golden knife, and someone brought the two leaders up.
Gao Chong stared at them viciously and said, "You are a wise man and don't do secret things. Do you dare to say your names?"
The boss snorted coldly and said, "What's the matter? I was born in Wuji, with the surname Zhang and the name Ju. I am the leader of Boss Tong. This is my second brother Zhang. Boss Tong heard that your Gao family has endless food and endless gold and silver, so I ordered us to come to your Gao family and get some.
I have nothing to say today when it falls into your hands. What should you do if you want to kill or cut? If you frown, you are not a hero."
Gao Chong looked at him coldly, with a hint of ridicule on his face, and sneered: "You are very reluctant to cooperate! Or do you think I am a fool?"
"I have said everything I should say. If you don't believe me, I can't do anything." After Zhang Ju said that, he lowered his head and said nothing.
"Do you think I can't even distinguish between the bandits and the water thief?" Gao Chong stood up and said, "Then I'll convince you! Come and take off their shirts."
Yi Yong rushed up and took off the thief's shirt tied up. Everyone was watching silently, not knowing what he wanted to do.
"I tell you that the thief is on the water surface for the sake of convenience; every day, he will have his breasts exposed, and his skin will be sunburned and reddish-brown all over.
You bandits are on the mountain all year round, with many mosquitoes and neat clothes, so you won’t be sunburned accordingly. Do you show me one of these people who are sunburned?"
These people were stunned and no one could speak. Gao Chong grabbed Zhang Ju's hand and said, "I'm telling you! People who often stay in the water need to use their palms to hit the water. Their fingerprints are relatively shallow. Look at your fingerprints. Does this look a little shallow?"
Zhang Ju was speechless, and he didn't know how to answer, he didn't understand these things at all.
Gao Chong sneered: "Actually, it's easy to see if you are water thieves. I can throw you into the river and you will know at a glance whether you are water ducks or land ducks!"
Zhang Ju knew that this time it was a complete failure and lowered his head and stopped talking. Liu Ziyi and Shao Yun who were watching behind also looked at each other. They did not expect that Gao Chong would expose the true face of his opponent in just a few words.
"We have lost, there is nothing to say, just want to die early!" Zhang Juyi lowered his head and said nothing.
"Die! This is a must! Don't think that if you don't say it, I don't know who you are? You are Zhongshan bandits, and Dong Cai is still waiting for your letter!"
"Ah——" Zhang Ji was shocked, and he closed his mouth and said, "No matter how you guess, even if you beat me to death, you can't let me wrongly accuse Lord Dong."
"I don't need your confession! What about more than 200 people below? I don't believe that they are all as hard as you."
Zhang Ju's eyes flashed, and he finally lowered his head suddenly and completely gave up.
Liu Ziyi stepped forward and said, "Little Prince, I want to inform you of something. Dong is determined to let Manager Ding go, and we did not rescue anyone."
Gao Chong sneered and said, "Very good! Since he wants to fight our Gao family to the death, I will help him."
He glanced at these people, then called Gao Wei over and said, "Gao Wei, I heard that our Lord Dong offers a reward of Wuji water thieves at the price of 10 guan for each person's head. Today I will give him these heads."
Gao Wei's eyes lit up and said, "Master, I really want to know what the magistrate would look like when he sees these heads. Especially for these two thief heads, I will definitely exchange for more money."
"There is no need to change the thief leader!" Gao Chong snorted coldly, picked up a steel knife, and then slashed Zhang Ju's arm and slashed it down. Zhang Ju fainted on the ground with a scream in pain.
"Go and ask the doctor to treat him, don't let him die! Gao Wei, take this arm and rescue Manager Ding. Tell Dong Cai that he relies on Tong Guan; our Gao family has something to do with the royal family!"
Gao Wei's eyes turned and understood what he meant, "Don't worry! Master, I will definitely let him understand his intention and submit to him."
At Gao Chong's order, Gao Baobao and Gao Wei took the courage to suppress the prisoners to the grove next to the village. Soon, screams, curses, and shouting for mercy kept ringing.
Gao Chong felt a little fluctuated when he heard the screams; Liu Ziyi walked up and said, "Is the little prince's heart a secret when he is moved?"
Gao Chongxin turned his head and gritted his teeth, "Everyone has compassion, but they are all thieves who are still alive. I still have no kindness as a woman."
As he said that, he called Zhou Shiyuan, Wang Yi and others over. Liu Ziyi and Shao Yun also surrounded him.
Gao Chong looked at everyone and said, "Everyone, through this incident, everyone has seen it; someone will not die, so our volunteer camp must be further strengthened, not just a loose organization."
Zhou Shiyuan and others nodded when they heard this. Gao Chong continued: "This time, Mr. Liu Ziyi brought us urgently needed weapons, and the volunteers can also be upgraded to professional warriors.
I am going to let the righteous man be freed from the field work and specialize in fighting. Leave the work in the field to others to take charge of it!"
Liu Ziyi secretly glanced at Gao Chong. His father valued Prince Gao very much and believed that his future was limitless, so he asked him to go to Gaojia Town to help.
To be honest, he was still a little unhappy when he received this task at the beginning. No matter what, he was a general. The other party was just a child and a king who had no rights at all, which made him disagree with his father's arrangements.
However, he also knew that his father's temper was loyal and upright, so he could not change his mind at all, so he still wanted to meet this Gao Pet for a while this time.
However, Gao Chong solved these bandits as if he was about to kill the mess, making him look at the child differently. Especially when he said that Manager Ding was not rescued, Gao Chong immediately changed his strategy and re-arranged it to him.
Gao Chong's desire to change his righteousness made Liu Ziyi's eyes lit up. He finally recognized his father's view of Gao Chong's people, who was unwilling to be calm.
"What does the little prince mean to be a brave man and become a chariot army?" Zhou Shiyuan reacted quickly and instantly understood what Gao Chong meant.
Gao Chong snorted, "Those wing soldiers are just disguised soldiers! They are all errands, what kind of combat effectiveness can they have! We want to form a team specially used for combat. Now they are not necessarily large, but when something happens, I can quickly pull out a large army based on them."
Zhou Shiyuan immediately understood what Gao Chong meant, and he clapped his hands excitedly and said, "I agree with the little prince's statement! People leave their names behind, and geese leave their voices behind; I am willing to die for the little prince!"
Wang Yi also said excitedly: "I am willing to obey the instructions of the little prince."
Gao Chong nodded and said, "Very good! I am planning to set up a 500-person volunteer camp at this stage. You must continue to expand recruitment. At the same time, go to the bottom to see if some people are reluctant to leave their current life, let them quit."
"Yes!" Zhou Shiyuan said: "Don't worry, little prince, our militia is well treated. Many people are asking for help and want to join. The staff is definitely not a problem."
Gao Chong nodded and said, "Very good, Wang Yi, you are responsible for recruiting soldiers. Zhou Shiyuan, you arrange for people to build a military camp! The regular army should have the attitude of a regular army, and you can't think about your wife and children every day."
Everyone laughed for a while and Gao Chong said, "Brother Liu, I want to hire you to join the army in our volunteer camp. I wonder if you are willing to surrender."
Liu Ziyi smiled and said, "Young Prince is so polite, so you dare not ask for what you wish! But you don't have to be too polite to ask for your request. Just call me Ziyi."
"Okay! Then I'm not polite! I'll have to teach me more in the future." Gao Chong then said to Shao Yun: "General Shao, my army is different from others. They have their own training methods. I hope you don't rush to join and have a good look at what to do?"
Shao Yun was still a little uncomfortable and said in his heart: "Don't think that your force is higher than me, but I am from the Western Army with the most stringent training. Our Western Army is the best in the world. Can your training surpass us?"
But thinking about this, he still said politely: "Yes! I'm just about to see the little prince's military practice method and learn it well."
Gao Chong could see at a glance that he was disheartened, but he did not point out: "I should have held a banquet for Ziyi and Shao Yun, but if this happens at home, it is not suitable for celebration. Let's record it first and wait for you to make up for it later."
