Chapter 1129 I Know Your Boss
Dashu and Xiaoshu brought their personal soldiers to clean up the meat of the prey. They gave half of it to Chef Zhang as ingredients, a small half to Zhou Guo and Lao Zheng, who wanted to roast it themselves, and the rest belonged to them.
After all, Chef Zhang is only responsible for Zhou Guo's food and drink, and people like them are not qualified to eat his food.
Zhou Guo took a piece of meat and skewered it on a branch to roast. Lao Zheng next to him roasted a leg of roe deer meat, which was the most tender and delicious.
While the two of them were grilling, they chatted about random things, talking about what Zhou Guo had done over the years, what he was going to do in the south this time, Lao Zheng's wife and children, how high his rank was in the military camp, and how his family was doing.
Old Zheng sighed and said, "I am older than your uncle and was the first one to enter the army. But he has been rising like a monkey in the sky. I can't catch up with him even if I ride my horse. He has been promoted too quickly. He is really a natural born general."
In the military camp, he was cautious in his words and actions, and always had brilliant ideas, which made him deeply loved by the general.
Zhou Guo said: "That was also earned by my uncle with every knife and gun he fought for. He had nothing, he was just a poor boy, and his family was not well-off. Our whole family was counting on him for support, so he had no choice but to fight for it.
Uncle Zheng, you are different. You come from a well-off family, so you don't need to work so hard. Your family can live a good life. There is no comparison between the two of you."
One has no way out, the other has a way out.
Lao Zheng smiled and said, "I just expressed my feelings. He really worked very hard. I am ashamed of myself."
There were people in the military camp who could work as hard as Zhou Dacang, but many of them were not as capable and powerful as him. Those who were capable and powerful came from wealthy families and did not need to work so hard. In the end, both groups were no match for him.
Zhou Guo followed Lao Zheng for three days, but they finally had to part ways.
She said to him, "Uncle, please, take these thousands of people to the north, and Hu Zi will come to take over. Thank you for your help."
Lao Zheng waved his hand, "Why bother? I'm not paying for their food and lodging. They can move by themselves. I don't need to find someone to carry them. I can drive a sheep alone or a group of people. They walk faster than these people. I won't bother you."
After all, they were once the Xu family army, and they could run everywhere on their two legs. Even if they are injured now, they still walk faster and better than ordinary people. The worst case, who has lost his legs and walks with crutches, is no slower than ordinary people.
This level of strength is nothing compared to what we had when we first fought the war.
He added: "I am still the general of the Xu family army. It is my responsibility to bring them back to the north safely. This is what I should do."
Zhou Guo smiled, "Have a safe journey, uncle. When I return to the north, I will send you some delicious food. I can send things to the camp now."
Anything you can eat, drink or wear can be sent into it.
Old Zheng pointed at her and said, "Don't forget, if the time comes and the Major General has it and I don't, I will go and steal his."
Zhou Guo said: "Don't worry, when have I ever forgotten?"
“Not really.” Old Zheng told the truth. In the first few years after Zhou Dacang entered the camp, he sometimes came out to see his family. When he came back to the camp, he brought a lot of bags, and some of them were included, including clothes, shoes, socks and food. They were so touched.
Zhou Guo stood on his horse, watching the grain transport team moving further and further towards the north, and sighed softly.
She misses home a little!
The Chinese New Year is coming soon. Speaking of which, she hasn’t celebrated the Chinese New Year at home for two years. I wonder what delicious food her family has prepared this year?
After the team walked away, she said to the people around her, "Let's go."
Dashu, Xiaoshu, and four personal soldiers, Chef Zhang and his young apprentice, made a total of nine people in the group. Traveling in such a chaotic world, they were relatively few in number and could easily become targets of robbery.
Especially Zhou Guo, his sable coat was shiny and glossy, and it was obvious that it was worth a lot of money. Such a group of people were obviously big businessmen, and even the clothes they wore were so good, so they must have a lot of money in their pockets.
Look at the big bags on their backs, I wonder how much gold, silver and jewelry are hidden in them.
Zhou Guo looked at the ugly men holding big swords not far ahead, counted them, twenty-two, frowned, and asked: "Which mountain are you from? Are there only so few people?"
The twenty-two people on the other side were not convinced by her words. They rolled up their sleeves and shouted at her, "How dare you ask such a question, you little bastard? I tell you, there are five or six thousand people on our hill. I'm not afraid to tell you that there are several other hills nearby. We are all one family, and there are so many people on all of them!"
"If all these people come down, they will drown you with a mouthful of spit from each of them, and they will eat up your pretty face like a flower with a mouthful of each of them until there is nothing left. And you still dare to say that we are outnumbered?"
"That's right. We are a famous mountain nearby. You'll be scared to death if I tell you about it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the twenty or so men laughed triumphantly, as if they had already tied Zhou Guo up to the mountain and made a huge profit.
Zhou Guo's lips curled up into a smile.
Xiaoshu frowned and said, "Master, these guys seem to be stupid."
Zhou Guo said: "It's okay."
She flicked her whip and asked calmly, "Who is your boss?"
Several people looked at each other, and one of them asked, "Do you know our boss?"
Zhou Guo nodded, "Yes, I know you. Ask your boss to come down. I have something to ask him."
Dashu said worriedly, "Master, if they go to call for reinforcements, there are only a few of us and we can't defeat so many people."
Two fists are no match for four hands, and he realized this deeply when he was in the mountains.
Zhou Guo said: "It's okay, I do know their boss."
"Really?" Dashu and Xiaoshu were puzzled. How could the master know the boss here? They had never been here before?
Seeing that what she said didn't seem to be a lie, several people on the other side discussed it and said to Zhou Guo, "Wait, kid, I'm going to call our boss right now. You'd better tell the truth, otherwise, humph, my boss will come and make you pay for it. My boss is very powerful."
Zhou Guo was waiting on the side.
Xiaoshu said: "Master, I will go get some reinforcements."
Zhou Guo said: "No need, reinforcements should be here soon."
"Who is it?" Several people were puzzled and mysterious.
Zhou Guo smiled and said, "You will know in a moment."
As a result, before the reinforcements arrived, the boss on the mountain arrived first.
When the boss came out, everyone was shocked. The boss turned out to be a woman wearing men's clothes!
As for why they could tell that the other person was a woman, it was naturally because they had seen Zhou Guo wearing men's clothes many times. Zhou Guo had been wearing men's clothes since she was a child, and she looked so heroic, so outsiders really couldn't tell the difference.
But the situation on the other side is different. It’s a person. As long as you have eyes that are not blind, you can see the subtle waves on her chest and her delicate skin and tender flesh. It is definitely not something a middle-aged man can have. This is a woman.
