Chapter 341 Responses from all parties
After some false procedures and politely conspired, Zhang Yuan gave in and said humbly again: "Then I'm not polite."
Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "Originally, General Li Yuanhao and I were ordered to suppress bandits, but General Li took a small road and attacked Heihuzhai in a surprise attack, hoping to make great achievements and a battle. So we divided our troops and set out, but things on the battlefield were unpredictable. I originally thought that the thieves were all restrained by General Li, and I must have been driving straight in here. However, I didn't expect that when I arrived in Ganquan, I was blocked by the fortress built by the thieves. After all, the township warriors I brought were too few, and the enemy attacked them five times the strategy of war. So I wanted to ask the county master to drive the right to sign Ding Zhi.
The county signing of Ding 2,200 is to strengthen the army's power. At the same time, I want to join the county master to summon local wealthy gentry to raise some money and grain to provide these signings. As the saying goes, the emperor will not send hungry soldiers, right?" Looking at the county master and a group of clerks, Zhang Yuan expressed a little embarrassedly: "Then our army needs a large number of bows, arrows and equipment to pull out the nail that blocked the door in front of us, and ask the adults to allocate them in the government. Of course, I understand the rules and must pay 20% of the handling fees to the county."
This was just as everyone was talking about, and it immediately resonated with everyone. Finally, there was an excuse and I wanted to fight for the opportunity to start signing for donations at dawn.
If you want to sign a 2,000 yuan, you can sign it for every family. The wealthy ones can ask them to use silver to replace them. After all, this time I really went out to fight, and there are still many people who are afraid of death. Some people can use money to replace signing a dynasty, and those who have no belongings can completely support it. This is a considerable income, and there is also a fundraising, which is a good opportunity to make a big profit. The rice and grain signed by the dynasty can be written off in the county warehouse, and everyone can share the weight by raising a donation.
Because it is profitable, we don’t care about sleeping all night, and everyone is united in bargaining and sharing the profits they will get.
Zhang Yuan was originally a businessman, and at this time he felt like he had been missing for a long time, that was he was just polite and stingy. The county master and the chief clerk were all not easy to save money, and he was even more disgusted. It was a pity for those rich and wealthy businessmen who were still sleeping. At this time, the middle-class villains were already divided by others.
The final spoils sharing conference ended successfully in a warm, friendly, open, constructive and fully reflecting mutual assistance, friendship, humility and respect. It was the first time that the Ming Dynasty had a harmonious coexistence between civil and military officials and military personnel. The fun of this sweet spring after dawn is not something I can describe.
I didn't sleep all night. After dawn, Cao Meng, who had been nervous for a night, did not wait for the fierce attack as expected. The city of Ganquan County was as calm as no one. It was just as noon that I could faintly cry in the north wind. But the Ganquan gate was closed tightly, without any intention of opening it. This made Cao Meng very different, but I was also very glad that time was very precious to him. It was his wish.
However, the enemy did not come, but outside the ice castle, there were constantly all kinds of people, blatantly or hunched their heads and heads back and forth, and it was a constant stream of time, traveling back and forth between the Tao.
Cao Meng knew that there were various horse-striking horses here, and there were also homekeepers from all over the country who protected the houses. They went here to explore the reality and reality. There were dozens of groups of people, which was spectacular.
Cao Meng ignored it and sat alone at the highest point of the ice castle, basking in the sun leisurely, humming a small song, and shouting the love songs of Xintianyou in northern Shaanxi from time to time, so that I could only feel the breeze blowing on my face by the wind and rain in all directions.
A gust of wind was the first to know that Zhang Yuan led his army and went to Heihu Village to suppress bandits through Ganquan. He also had his own spies along the way to report on Zhang Yuan's team's actions and personnel changes. When he heard that Zhang Yuan's team was constantly attracting the landlords and powerful village warriors in the northern part of Ganquan along the way, and grew to 5,000 people, he secretly worried about Cao Meng.
This time Zhang Yuan came to encircle and suppress the enemy. Cao Meng only had more than 600 soldiers and more than 100 masters, and there were no bows and arrows and other equipment. Their equipment was only suitable for field battles. But even if your army was strong, Zhang Yuan was trained as a 5,000 local chariot and nearly 1,000 guards in Ganquan. That was a tenfold gap. He would definitely suffer a loss in field battles. He also knew that Cao Meng had an old camp in an abandoned mountain village, but the walls of the mountain village were low and dilapidated, and the terrain was not steep, so there was no danger to defend at all. Therefore, according to his own ideas, Cao Meng was not a reckless person. He should lead the army back to Heihu Village to meet with the brigade, and use the terrain and number of people to strictly guard.
But when the probing horses rushed to return, saying that Cao Meng did not return to Heihu Village in a hurry, but instead rushed to Ganquan County with the only 600 people, he was shocked to the medicine bowl in his hand. After thinking about it, he immediately understood Cao Meng's thoughts. This was a bloody battle with the official army, and to show the military power of the trespassing forces to all forces who were still watching. They were all poles and all of them were in the same spirit. After getting this news, he stomped his feet and said, "I'm still young, I don't know at least. The ten-fold gap between battles can you Cao Meng be able to take on? In order to show your courage for a while, you have to suffer a big loss. It's not worth it. If we don't say anything about poles, we will only bully the weak and fear the strong, but we still have to hide. Otherwise, how can we survive."
The deputy who had participated in the drinking with a gust of wind came forward and advised carefully: "Don't be so anxious, I think Cao Meng not only had four hundred spearmen and one hundred masters, but also two hundred cavalry like wolves and tigers. After a while, Cao Meng would stop when he saw the situation, and fled back to the Black Tiger Village with his cavalry. He would not be foolish and really fight with Zhang Yuan. I think this battle is the goal of showing strength to all parties."
A gust of wind thought about it and nodded in agreement. He thought that Cao Meng had really done this to show his heroic character. It was a pity that the walking spearmen were sacrificed in vain when they were chased in the future. However, there was nothing in this world, but there was no shortage of human lives. As long as the forces in Gannan were protected, wouldn't that person catch him?
Whether it is a hero or a hero, as long as you know the practice, you will be a hero. Such a boy has a promising future. I don’t expect that an old man like me will be wiped out by the world and can only spend the spring and autumn in this copycat.
Thinking of this, he ordered people to boil the medicine again and let his subordinates continue to inquire.
Just after a bowl of new medicine was boiled, he was about to drink it, and when he saw a horse rushing back to report it. With every rule, he just reported to a gust of wind: "Report to the boss, Cao Meng did not rush to Ganquan to show his power and leave, but was three miles from the south gate, and chose the main throat to block the gate of Ganquan and start building a fortress. It seemed that he would block Zhang Yuan from attacking Heihu Village at all costs."
The bowl of medicine in a gust of wind fell to the ground again, and looked at the provocation horse in amazement for a long time without making any sound. It was not until the deputy shouted a few times before he came to his senses.
He was helped by his deputy and sat down. First of all, he began to look at Cao Meng with admiration. For the present and future of the parody, Cao Meng dared to use his life to fight against the official army more than ten times more. Real man and true loyalty. What method did the King of Breaking King Lu Shi use to make men rather die than defend the once unknown Breaking Army?
The deputy stepped forward again and whispered: "It seems that Cao Meng is really going to call the government army, but this method is wrong. After all, a mere five hundred vs six thousand will be the ending of an immediate overturn. However, building a fort in a nearly throat can last longer. However, building a fort on the flat ground without materials is also a whimsical idea. I think it is mostly just a good idea to do it."
A gust of wind stood up and walked back and forth in the hall for a few times, nodded in agreement with the deputies of his hand, and asked the tent to find out the truth again. He had to investigate carefully before he could come back. He had no intention of taking medicine again, and was anxiously waiting for the tent to give him a reward.
When it was already dawn and his wife had boiled a bowl of medicine again and begged him to drink, the horse stud had already strode into the hall and said anxiously: "The Cao Meng of the boss is really amazing. He sent all the cavalry out, and he brought his spearmen to guard the fortress."
"But how was that fortress built?" the deputy asked with a confused look on his face.
"Leizu has been frozen after watering and watering. With the help of thousands of villagers nearby, I had already repaired three feet high when I came back."
Bushiji and that pair of hands looked at me and I looked at you with admiration. Bushijiji had forgotten to drink the medicine bowl, and couldn't help but shout, "Grassy, even asking him to think of this method, it was really Grasy."
"Is there any more?" Buzanni asked again.
"Yes, I observed it from a close distance. The ice fortress was extremely tall, thick and sturdy, but the strange thing was that there was no door left to enter and exit around."
A gust of wind heard that he accidentally dropped the medicine bowl again. He stared at the horse-striking horse for a long time, and suddenly sat on the chair for a long time and whispered: "What a pity." Then he said loudly: "It's a brave man." Then he stood up and turned around quickly and said: "You go to find that gust of warrior Cao, and you said you need a gust of wind to speak. I'll help you decide this venue, and I'll hand him, a kid."
The siege agreed excitedly and strode away. A gust of wind stepped forward and whispered: "Big boss, brother Cao Meng is planning to buy time for Heihu Village to kill him. This is a man who can be dating. But is it necessary for us to trek into this muddy water? Let's take a look and don't anger Zhang Yuan. If you really destroy the crusade army, you will be in trouble for us. It will be more than worth the loss."
"Bad, if there is such a man who will die without hesitation, can the rebel army be destroyed? Since you think such a man is worthy of money, you should give him timely help to really hand over Cao Meng's rebel army with such a bloody man. This is a huge deal. If you pay in the future, you will not be rewarded today. Okay, you will gather 500 of the best brothers in our village to bring the best equipment to defend the city. Once Cao Meng invites us, we will help him."
"Yes, the boss, I'll make arrangements now."
When Cao Meng saw the messenger who was not stuck in mud at dawn, after the messenger explained his purpose, Cao Meng stood on the fortress that was shining like a god descending to earth, and said gratefully to the messenger: "Please reply to my old brother. I have recorded his love, but when I build this fortress, I can only hold my five hundred brothers, and one more cannot be added. So, when I defeated Zhang Yuan, I personally invite my brother Wang to visit your village."
Seeing the messenger with a gust of wind leaving, Cao Meng shouted to the explorers, both openly and secretly, "I just want everyone to see what I am in the base area and what is the one in the world who dare not fight, and who won if they are not fighting."
