Chapter 42 Conquering Jiao Ting
Du Jia said with a smile: "I said to Xie Er, you should have done this earlier, and you will save you from suffering from these flesh and blood. I will ask you a few questions now. If you answered me to satisfy me, I can spare your life, but if you dare to hide or hesitate at all, don't blame me for being rude."
Xie Chao nodded quickly, but Shi Jin's foot was still firmly pedaling on his back, causing his chin to be bleeding from the ground, but he couldn't care, so naturally others ignored it.
Du Jia's face suddenly changed, and his previous smile disappeared, and he said coldly: "Do you know who did the gifts that Chai Daren came to his house to rob him of filial piety this time?"
Xie Chao was frightened by Du Jia's momentum, and he didn't expect that Du Jia would ask this question directly as soon as he came up. He was not mentally prepared and could only hesitate and said: "This, this, villain..."
Seeing him talking, Shi Jin slashed his back with a knife, almost making his internal organs appear. This completely defeated Xie Chao's last line of defense. He had snot and tears on top, and he was shit and urine flowing down. He didn't dare to keep it at all. He hurriedly said everything like a bamboo tube pouring beans. His speaking speed was the fastest in his life, for fear of angering Shi Jin again and suffering.
What he said was okay. Except for Du Jia's expression and Lin Chong's expression could barely remain unchanged, the rest of the people were dumbfounded. Jiao Ting was even more angry, angry and scared, pointing at Xie Chao but couldn't say a word.
It turned out that Xie Chao not only knew about Chai Jin's goods being robbed, but also was one of the participants. Not long ago, someone in Cangzhou secretly summoned people from the world, regardless of where they came from, as long as they had the ability and courage, they would be sent to each other. Xie Chao was moved and quietly went there. There he met many gangsters in a radius of hundreds of miles, and the two brothers Luo Yun and Luohai from Niujiao Mountain next to him were also among them.
The person who summoned them was a businessman, calling himself Yan Long. He first invited everyone to eat delicacies, good wine and good dishes, and then each gave him ten taels of silver without asking the reason. This explained his purpose. It turned out that he was entrusted by the Jin people in the north to make trouble in the Central Plains and shake the foundation of the Song Dynasty. As long as the people present could do something that violated the rule of the Song Dynasty, he would give him generous gifts. If he did outstanding achievements, he could also get an official position in the Jin Dynasty.
These people are all grass-roots heroes. They didn't know how powerful the Jin Dynasty was. They only thought that the Liao Kingdom was the enemy of the Song Dynasty. There were also gold and silver in front of them, and many people immediately agreed to Yan Long and were willing to do things for him, and Xie Chao and the Luo brothers were no exception.
Then not long after, the Luo brothers found out that the gift cart in Chaijiazhuang was about to pass by them, so they went to Heihuling to invite Jiao Ting to come and jail. Although Jiao Ting left Chaijiazhuang, he was still very grateful to Chai Jin, so he refused and everyone left in a bad mood.
Then the Luo brothers took Niujiao Mountain's men and took action by themselves. Xie Chao also secretly helped with some confidants. Because there had never been any trouble in the Chai family's convoy for so many years, and these people were crazy for Yan Long's heavy reward, they attacked and looted the convoy and killed many people escorting the convoy. After Yan Long received the news, he was overjoyed. Not only did he give them a generous gift of 1,000 taels of silver, but he also gave the Luo brothers and Xie Chao an additional three centurion signs, promising that if the Dajin occupied the Song Dynasty in the future, they would be the centurion of the Dajin Kingdom.
To be honest, neither the Luo brothers nor Xie Chao took the position of the centurion seriously. They had no idea that the strength of the new Jin Kingdom in the distant northeast of the Liao Kingdom had already become stronger and stronger, and they had a thousand miles a day. On the contrary, the overlord of the Great Liao Kingdom in their eyes was already in its peak and decline, and they could only appease the Jurchen clan, the rising subordinate force.
After Xie Chao finished speaking, he was afraid that Du Jia and the others would not believe it, so he asked Shi Jin to let him go, and then took out the centurion's sign from his arms and handed it over.
Du Jia took it and saw that it was made of a bone of an animal. Its workmanship was quite rough, but it had a wild and tough meaning inside. There were words engraved on the front and back, but I didn't recognize it at all. It should be written by the Jurchen people.
After reading it, Du Jia casually put away the sign. He didn't know that the Jin Kingdom was far less prosperous than the Liao Kingdom at this time, let alone the Song Dynasty. Therefore, they could only carve this seal that was the most precious in the Song Dynasty.
Among them, the ten-masters used the wolf skull, the centurion was the bear skull, and the thousand-masters were also the tiger skull. As for the ten-masters, I'm sorry. The entire Jurchen warriors now only have more than 10,000 people, and they don't have this title at all.
However, we have to underestimate their small number of people. There has always been a rumor in the border between the Liao and Jin countries, that is, the Jurchens are less than ten thousand and cannot be defeated, which shows how terrible the combat effectiveness of their troops is.
Du Jia believed that Xie Chao would never dare to lie at this time, so he asked Shi Jin to let him go first and asked him to write a letter to meet the Na Luo brothers in the dense forest in the northeast tomorrow, saying that there were important matters to discuss.
Could Xie Chao have any other choice in this matter? He could only write a letter and give it to the Luo brothers. Anyway, his dog crawling character is an original family, and even the zodiac sign of the Saint-Handed Book is not imitated here.
Du Jia asked someone to take Xie Chao, who was depressed, to treat his injuries. In other words, he temporarily controlled it and turned to Jiao Ting and said, "Brother Jiao, the truth is revealed now. This vote was done by your second in command. Although you did not participate, we believe others but may not believe it. After it is spread, you may not be able to stay in Cangzhou. What are your plans?"
Jiao Ting knew that Du Jia was not false. People on the official side would be particularly targeted by Chai Jin because of Chai Jin's relationship, and people in the world looked down on him for his ungrateful behavior. He was killed by Xie Chao. In the future, not to mention Cangzhou, even the world would have no place to gain a foothold. He was already known as having no face, and now he was completely shameless to keep going. This is really a mistake in one step. Why did he feel dizzy at that time and asked this disaster star to be the second village leader to be?
Looking at Jiao Ting who sighed and looked sad, Du Jiao said sincerely: "Brother Jiao, you should have done something with your ability. To be honest, I am the leader of Liangshan, Shandong. If you are willing to believe it, you will abandon this small village and go to Liangshan with me. I can't guarantee that you will be rich and powerful in the future, but you will definitely give you a fair chance. As long as you make contributions, you will definitely not be buried. How about it, are you willing?"
With the bonus of "eloquence" ability and Du Jia's sincere invitation, Jiao Ting was immediately moved. Looking at Shi Jin, who was far stronger than him and Lin Chong, who was even more unfathomable, were all the leaders of Du Jia. What else should I be reserved for? So I agreed happily. He was tall and good at close combat. It would be perfect for him to be a personal guard for Du Jia.
Look at Federer, and then look at Natto, who was injured again at the beginning of the Chinese New Year. Hey, it seems that this mage is still more capable than the warriors in continuing their battles.
