Chapter 1082 Firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea

On the twenty-seventh day, Yin'er took Miao Zhen and Wen Yin to see the arrow making in Tianwai Village.

Only then did Miaozhen realize that there were always enough arrows in the village. It was because Yu Xiuying had organized a large number of people, including men and women, mostly commoners and soldiers. Anyone who was good at it could be found in this inconspicuous house.

Gathered here, there is a clear division of labor in various processes from design to preparation. Obviously many of them have little or no understanding at the beginning, but war can really sharpen people.

"Any straight wood can be used to make arrow shafts, and birch is the best. Unfortunately, there are few birches in Mount Tai." "However, the most important thing is that it must be straight and as smooth as possible." "Feathers can improve the accuracy of arrows. Of course,

Paper, light cloth, or leaves cut into certain shapes can all be used as substitutes for feathers." Just ask, and any seven or eight-year-old girl will know.

After the arrow shafts are sharpened and quenched, they are equipped with sharp arrowheads made of tinplate and flint. These murderous objects have injured masters, but they are in the hands of these people.

"They say that we are bandits, poor and unruly people in Shandong, but I say that you are good men and women from Qilu." Yin'er said sincerely.

When Shao Hongyuan was the commander-in-chief of the Jin Army a few months ago, the people of Feng Zhangzhuang were already "killed without mercy" in the words of the Jin Army. These days, Yue Li has also brought all the people in more areas of Tai'an County under his control.

Killed. Of course this is not because Yue Li is driving fish out of the Yuan, but because Yue Li has clearly seen that these people are no longer pure. Since the Song bandits have all joined forces, the Jin army will certainly show no mercy to them.

Yin'er was always touched by this atmosphere of "all the people are soldiers", just like when he saw many people sending meat to the Allies in Shiquan County, people's hearts reciprocated, and all efforts were worth it, even if the road was full of wind knives

Frost sword.

Turning around, he looked at the scene of people pounding rice on the stone beams outside the house. A group of peasant women were chatting and laughing. The lively scene did not look like a powerful enemy. Including Yu Xiu'an, Yu Xiuqin and others, they had attacked Shao Hongyuan a month ago.

Their expressions changed as they talked, and now they have caught up with their sister's courage.

"What are you talking about that's so funny?" Yu Xiuying stepped forward and asked.

"I was talking about a Jin Army spy last night who wanted to sneak into our village to find out what was going on. He climbed up a very steep terrain. He thought there was no one to defend him. Who would have thought that as soon as he climbed up, he would be doused by Sister Luo?

The pickles fell straight down."

"That guy in my family must learn how to cook. If the food is too salty, he can only take it out and pour it out! He didn't expect there was any movement next to him. He just fell down without doing anything! If you don't throw him to death, you will kill him!" The man surnamed Luo!

The peasant woman explained.

Yin'er also laughed when she heard it, and suddenly thought of Lin Qian who made spicy rice dumplings.

"There are spies from the Jin Army coming to investigate..." Wen Yin was stunned.

"She probably didn't come in." Yin'er shook her head, "I wouldn't have noticed it even if I came in."

There is no way for them to communicate with the outside world.

Of course it's still authentic.

It is not newly dug, nor is it old in Hongyi Village, but old in Shiqing Village.

Before the outbreak of the Shandong War in the Jin and Song Dynasties, Shi Qingzhai had been unhappy with the Red Coat Village for a long time and had long thought about replacing it. Therefore, it was the first to fight with Wu Yue and Xia Quan in Yimeng. In the early years, it went to Mount Tai to develop and share the helm.

Of course, there are also tunnels for communication, but unfortunately Taishan is still dominated by Red Coat Village, so the tunnels are considered dusty, and Shi Qing thought they would never be used again.

This time Yue Li cut off their communication with the outside world. No matter how well he cut it off, it was Yue Li's paralysis of himself.

"Tianwai Village is not difficult to save." Lin Qian certainly knew how to save Yin'er, so he asked Yang Zhicheng, who had been in charge of Yimeng, to send a trusted person, the young general Yang Zheqin, to the Shiqing sub-rudder near Pipa Bay to rescue ten people from Tianwai Village.

Several strongholds transport water and food.

Suspicious as Shi Qing was, he set up a stronghold under the water of a port, which was convenient for transporting water. As for the source of the food, of course he was also a trustworthy person. Lin Qian, who had dealings with Zhang Rui in the past and was an upright man, of course remembered it.

There is no leakage. Even if the Jin army suspected Pipa Bay, they would not be able to find these two points. What's more, the world is so big, how could they know that this end of the transportation is at Pipa Bay.

Sure enough, for five days, the Jin soldiers could not defeat the stronghold no matter how hard they tried. Although Yue Li had doubts, he was unable to defeat it.

But it was said that Yue Li originally wanted to use "the siege of Tianwai Village and other places" to make up for the prince's strategy, so as to disturb Lin Qian's heart and promote his defeat in the confrontation with Sima Long Gao Fenglei. He did not want to kill Feng Xiaoyin immediately, so although Yue Li

He no longer had to be a hub, but he released water on Tianwai Village in the offensive. Of course, he released water in a measured way. Because he felt that Tianwai Village could not last long without water and food. A few days would be enough for Lin Qian to be tempted, attracted, and separated.

Heart.

The prince's strategy is perfect, it would be a pity not to make up for it before it is too late.

However, this situation posed a problem for Yue Li - Tianwai Village was so difficult to deal with when he and Ling Dajie joined forces. It seemed that they had to increase their offensive. However, this increased offensive was impossible to master.

With such precision, it is possible to level Tianwai Village in one fell swoop. Wouldn't that destroy the prince's strategy? It must be understood that if Lin Qian is distracted, Feng Xiaoyin must have a chance to be saved.

Not only that, it will definitely show to Lin Qian that the prince is setting up a plan against him. So far, Lin Qian has not seen that he fell into the trap because Lin Qian won the battle of Feng Zhangzhuang, and Lin Qian has not experienced the pain yet.

, and now, if Lin Qian discovers that Yue Li has been cheating in recent days... then Lin Qian will realize the prince's strategy before he has experienced the pain. In this way, Yue Li will not only fail to complement the prince's strategy, but also

harmed him.

In the early morning, Yue Li was thinking about the various possibilities of water and food sources in Tianwai Village in his tent, and pondering on why they could still have enough food and clothing after being trapped for so long.

The more I thought about the perfect ending of this battle, the more difficult it became, but Yue Li was not someone who gave up casually. "The chess player does not enter the game." It was as if I heard the prince's voice with my own ears, and the unique fact that the prince called him Zhongtian.

name.

"Perhaps, it's time to jump out and take a look." Earlier, he had cast a wide and dense net in various towns south of the Tianwai Village stronghold. Considering that Jiang Ji, Li Quan and others are all in charge of Cu Lai, so in Cu Lai

The most monitored. However, nothing was found for a long time, and even the Song bandits found nothing out of the ordinary in the southern counties. Yue Li had to lament that Lin Qian was watertight. So, he could only look further away to Yimeng——

However, although there is Lin Qian's close confidant Yang Zhicheng in Yimeng and other places, it is still too far away to make sense. "If it is Shi Qingzhai..." Yue Li thought in his mind and finally moved his eyes away from the map.

There are many details that cannot be seen on the map.

"Reporting to Tianzun, I was born and raised in Tai'an, and I have never heard of any branch in Qingzhai." All the rebel prisoners said this.

Do you want to catch someone from Shi Qing Village and ask? Yue Li frowned. He had heard that Shi Qing was suspicious. He was afraid that even if he could get the address of the sub-rudder, he would not be able to get the entrance and exit of the secret passage.

Just at this moment, the subordinate who went to the Song bandit's village to investigate came limping in to return to his life, looking so embarrassed.

"how?"

"My subordinate did not do his job well. As soon as he climbed over a dangerous place, he was... poured a basin of water on him and fell down. He almost died when he came back to see Tianzun." The subordinate's face was full of shame and hatred.

"Have you seen anything?" Jun Jian was also in the tent.

"No, no. I...I didn't cross over, but a shrew...poured a pot of pickles on it." The subordinate reported truthfully, and the pot of pickles was the only thing he saw.

"That's all, let's go down." Jun Jian saw that Yue Li was deep in thought, so he told him. After watching the subordinate leave, Jun Jian sighed to himself, "I don't have a clue."

After a long time, Yue Li still didn't come back to his senses. Jun Jian asked tentatively: "Tianzun, what's the matter?"

"You must have heard that Shao Hongyuan hid cold poison in salt and grain when he released poisonous smoke in Feng Zhangzhuang," Yue Li said.

"Have studied it." Jun Jian nodded, "Oh? What Tianzun means is that instead of looking for the passage to Hongyi Village or Shiqing Village, we will directly find those grain merchants and salt merchants to seal their shops? Eliminate their source?"

Yue Li shook his head: "There are so many shops in the surrounding towns, where can I get them all?"

Jun Jian was startled and thought thoughtfully: "You are indeed blind."

"It's not blind, because it's easy to narrow down the scope." Yue Li laughed and shook his head, "It was this pot of pickles that reminded me. The poisonous smoke incident once caused a salt shortage, and Huang Slap Aluda took the opportunity to stop it.

There are many private salt merchants around Tai'an, most of which are under the control of the imperial court - although there are many who can send rice and grain to Tianwai Village, there are only a few who can send them salt."

"Efforts will be made to investigate the relevant salt dealers, and then follow the clues to find the source of the rice and grain. Finally, we will attack and guard the source of the salt and grain. They are short of salt and are worried about the lack of food?" Jun Jian suddenly realized, hesitantly satisfied.

"That's what Jun Jian said." Yue Li looked at him with a smile. Nothing in the world is perfect.

When Yang Zhicheng entrusted Yang Zheqin to transport water and food that day, he explicitly told him to be careful. Yang Zheqin found all reliable people. Among firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea, water and food are the most important. Yang Zheqin only had to be responsible for these two to avoid mistakes.

However, because the rice merchant who had a close personal relationship with Zhang Rui was extremely patriotic and said that he was responsible for all the goodwill shown to the Allied forces, this unnecessary flaw was added——

A large batch of salt would make the peasant woman not cherish it and pour it carelessly, thus making Yue Li imitate the unnecessary salt. It seems that too much is too much and too much is too much. Even if he is as cautious as Lin Qian, it is impossible for him to do it.

Everything is comprehensive.

But this is not a coincidence. It is easy to think forward but difficult to consider the reverse. Therefore, Yin'er did not pay attention when he heard it for the first time. Wen Yin only alerted the spies.

At the end of February, Pipa Bay and other places were guarded by Jin troops, and all major ports, rice shops, and salt fields were sealed off. Although Yang Zheqin and others were clever and did not suffer any harm, the grain and water channels of Tianwai Village were once again cut off.

This time, it was really interrupted.
