After Ye Zheng and Wang Po secretly formulated a plan to alienate the Cangliang Mountain bandits from the government, he secretly began to deploy it the next day, preparing to implement the plan as soon as possible before the imperial court sent a large army to suppress the bandits.
, instigating all the bandit forces in Cangliang Mountain who had taken refuge with the imperial court to turn to his camp in Feifeng Village.
Because Ye Zheng once asked Wang Bao and asked him how long it would take if the imperial court was really planning to attack Fengmingling.
Wang Po pondered for a moment and then told him that if Zhoucheng wanted to use troops against Fengling Ridge, it would have to wait at least a month. Therefore, they had to use various strategies within this month.
Means to unify all the bandit forces in the entire Cangliang Mountain.
So, Ye Zheng thought about it and gave Wang Po full responsibility for the plan, while he would fully support him from behind.
················
Seven days later, the various forces in the nine ridges and twelve peaks of Cangliang Mountain suddenly learned a shocking news. One month later, the imperial court would send a large army to Cangliang Mountain to wipe out all the people.
Bandit forces!
After learning this astonishing news, all the bandit forces were doubtful. Because the sources of the news were too complicated, they could not verify whether the news was true or false. However, no matter what, in the hearts of the bandits,
I still have a suspicion and guard against the imperial government. I feel that although I have taken refuge in the government, I still can't completely trust them, because although Lan Heilong once made promises to them many times when he was still alive, both soft and hard, he said
As long as he surrenders to the King of Liang and helps him escape from seclusion to fight against rebellion, he will write to the court to absolve the Cangliang bandits of all charges. Instead, he will give them high-ranking officials, generous salaries, and gold and silver rewards. But now Lan Heilong is dead.
, the situation is different again.
In the past, under the coercion and inducement of the Blue and Black Dragon, the bandits in Cangliang Mountain had to submit. However, there was still a hidden worry in their hearts, that is, they were afraid that after the imperial court took advantage of these bandits, they would disappear! Examples and tragedies like this
, I don’t know how many things have happened throughout the ages.
Now that the blue and black dragon died, the bandits in Cangliang Mountain and the imperial government lacked a prestigious middleman to lead their alliance. Suddenly, their alliance was in a leaderless situation. Moreover, after the imperial blue and black dragon died, the imperial court no longer sent anyone from the government to fight with them.
After contacting each other, their unsteady thoughts of seeking refuge with the imperial court began to waver again.
However, at this moment, an unexpected incident rekindled the conflict and hatred between them and the government.
It turned out that several small bandit forces located on the outskirts of Cangliang Mountain were suddenly attacked by a group of heavily armed officers and soldiers at night. Suddenly, their small village of more than a hundred people fell apart in an instant under the siege of nearly a thousand officers and soldiers.
The bandits in the small cottage were dying and running away one by one. Even some of the leaders and masters in the cottage were shot dead by the officers and soldiers.
Immediately, the escaped mountain bandits all ran to seek refuge with other bandit forces in Cangliang Mountain, and quickly passed on the shocking news. For a time, all the bandit forces in the entire Cangliang Mountain were
They all felt in danger after hearing the news, fearing that the next target of the officers and soldiers' attack would be their own mountain stronghold.
At this time, the eyes and ears sent by the major forces in Cangliang Mountain suddenly learned a shocking news from some towns. That is, the lord of Linjiang City will send an army of 10,000 people to come in a month.
All bandit forces in Cangliang Mountain were wiped out. After learning the news, all the bandit forces in Cangliang Mountain were panicked. They all cursed the shamelessness and insidiousness of the imperial government, saying that the imperial court said that it wanted to recruit them, but at the same time it sent
Heavy troops came to suppress him, he was really cunning, cunning, and capricious. The face of the people in the public sect was really unbelievable.
At the same time, all the bandit forces in Cangliang Mountain are also prepared to take precautions and respond to the enemy at this moment. If the Linjiang City government really sends a large army to wipe them out, they will have no choice but to fight to the death and will never compromise!
Linjiang City is the city closest to the Cangliang Mountains. Within its jurisdiction, there are hundreds of towns and ten counties under its jurisdiction, and Dahe County is one of them.
During the Great Lie Dynasty at that time, the government's administration and distribution of various regions were quite unified and standardized. Generally, one town governed ten villages, one county governed ten small towns, and one main city governed ten counties.
, the ten main cities were divided into a county, and this county was usually awarded by the imperial court to the princes and grandsons as their fiefs and territories, and was left to them to govern themselves, and this Qingjiang County is the Liang County.
His Royal Highness's fiefdom.
Generally, a member of the royal family like King Liang is equivalent to the lord of a country within his own fiefdom. He alone controls all the financial, military and political power in a county fiefdom. Therefore, since he is the vassal king of Qingjiang County,
He is also the highest military and political official in Qingjiang County: the Governor!
·····················
Under the secret planning of Ye Zheng and Wang Po, the plan to instigate rebellion against the Cangliang Mountain bandits and the imperial court went very smoothly, and before they knew it, more than ten days had passed.
That night, Ye Zheng was in a good mood. He held a banquet for all the hall masters and main leaders in Feifeng Village. He planned to have a drink and talk at his residence and keep in touch with the brothers. Of course, Wang
Po is also included in his invitation.
At the wine table, under Ye Zheng's deliberate joking, the atmosphere was quite relaxed and lively. While pushing glasses and asking questions, Ye Zheng occasionally told a few dirty jokes that he had heard in his previous life, causing everyone to burst into laughter.
, he gives people the impression that he is the leader of all the hall leaders in Feifeng Village. This young leader of Ye Village is humorous and casual, has no pretensions, and is a very approachable leader.
After drinking and joking for a while, everyone felt that they had grown closer to this mysterious young village leader.
After drinking for three rounds, Ye Zheng picked up the wine glass and thought of a funny joke to make everyone happy. However, at this moment, he suddenly heard someone outside the house asking to see him. At that moment, he asked Lian Xin to call the person in to tell the story.
talk.
The visitor was a patrolman from Li Shiqing Hall. As soon as he entered the house, he respectfully saluted Ye Zheng and all the leaders.
At that moment, Ye Zheng asked him why he wanted to see him, and the man said: "Qingfeng Village in Qingyun Peak sent someone here, saying that they have important matters and want to see the leader of Ye Village."
Hearing this, Ye Zheng and Wang Po looked at each other, smiled knowingly, and said to themselves: "It's finally here!"
At that moment, Ye Zheng smiled and asked: "Where is the person? Where is he?"
The brother who reported the report glanced at the wine bottle on the table, licked his lips, bent down and said respectfully: "Report to the leader of the village, the visitor is already waiting at the foot of the mountain."
Seeing his greedy look, Ye Zheng couldn't help but secretly laugh. He smiled and said: "Okay, good, come brother, I'll buy you a few drinks. After drinking these glasses, you can take him up the mountain."
."
After giving the instructions, Ye Zheng rewarded the brother who informed him with a few glasses of water and wine. The guy was also a good drinker. He was flattered and drank the three large glasses of water and wine that Ye Zheng handed over, and then left happily.
