Chapter Fifteen: Huayin Ambush Millions of Soldiers
When Shi Jin saw that everyone was prostrate to the ground, if he still pretended to be pretentious at this point, it would appear hypocritical and detached. Shi Jin was born to be cheerful, and thought that as long as he can treat all the brothers in the future, they will no doubt recommend me as the leader.
That's it. So he hurriedly helped the three brothers and asked everyone to get up.
When everyone saw Shi Jin like this, although they didn't say anything, everyone knew in their hearts that he was willing. With such a strong man joining the gang to lead the brothers to work hard, and behind him, there was the support of the wealthy Shijiazhuang, not to mention what would happen in this day.
The more you go, the more moist it becomes, and even the officers and soldiers won't be afraid of him if they come again.
Everyone in Shaohua Mountain is happy, at least now they have something to look forward to. When they think of making big moves, making great achievements in the world, and having a bright future, somehow, the excitement in their hearts turns into full of strength.
, I just don’t know where to use it yet.
Things here were finalized in this way. After the formalities were completed, Shi Jin was led by Zhu Wu and others to examine this huge Shaohua Mountain from the inside out.
It turns out that Shaohua Mountain is divided into two jurisdictions: the front mountain and the back mountain. The back mountain is where the villagers' families live, as well as the village's logistics supply, food, and garrison. It is a very important place. Therefore, there is only one mountain trail that can go straight up.
Here comes the mountain behind.
Although the path is not steep, it is too narrow to allow three people to walk abreast. The path winds and winds, with a hillock every few hundred steps. About halfway up the mountain there is a gate to the village, and there is an archery tower on the left and right, which is extremely tightly guarded.
From here, go out of the village gate, go down the mountain, and walk twenty miles from here to Shijiazhuang.
Let's talk about the front of the village. With the Juyi Hall as the center, the departments that maintain the operation of the village are arranged radially. There is a huge flat land on the side, which can accommodate thousands of people. It is all used for
The place where soldiers are trained daily. On the right side is the general station.
Going down from the front of the village, it is built with large bluestone slabs. There are many archery tower camps on the left and right. Going down to the middle of the mountain is the fortress gate of the village. The archery towers are arranged in a horn formation. Further down is the mountain gate. There is an outpost checkpoint and
Two camps are guarded. From here, you can reach the main road, which leads to Huayin County all the way to the south.
When Shi Jin came down all the way, he probably understood everything about Shaohua Mountain and the ten-mile radius, so he took everyone back to the stronghold. He gathered the big and small leaders together, sat down in a row in the side hall, and then
Master Wang Jin flexibly transformed many of the methods of using troops, picked out the important ones and discussed them with everyone, and made arrangements for the deployment of defense and construction matters in the past few days.
In the afternoon of that day, the defenses were re-arranged. Shortly after Chen Da ordered to guard Shijiazhuang, three hundred strong men from Shijiazhuang also arrived at the village and put 500 denies of rice into the warehouse. Under Zhu Wu's command,
The repairs started from the fortress gate in the front village, which was built with bricks and stones inside and outside. It was made two feet thicker and ten feet taller, and the archery tower was repaired all the way to the gate in the back mountain. Dozens of fortifications were built, all of which were arranged by Zhu Wu
Everything is in good order and it will be ready in about seven or eight days.
On the Shijiazhuang side, when Chen Da reached it, the people of Shijiazhuang had already started to build the guard posts according to the drawings. Chen Da chose several important places to set up the camp. On the third day, Fourth Uncle Shi
After buying pig iron from Heigouzi, a small cart and a small cart arrived at Dezhuang like a coiled snake. From then on, the sound of iron was tinkling and tinkling, and the sound spread far and wide in shifts day and night.
【Huayin County●County Prime Minister's Mansion】
"Master, this Shijiazhuang has really surrendered to Shaohua Mountain. In just a few days, a fence has been built in Shijiazhuang. Not only are the minions from Shaohua Mountain stationed there, but they are also making weapons day and night. It's really important. It’s the other way around!”
County Magistrate Liu was drinking tea and hearing this report, he couldn't help but feel anxious. After taking a breath, he choked and coughed repeatedly. He had something in his heart and became increasingly anxious and couldn't say it out. The maid on the side saw it and hurriedly came up to give him some relief. He slapped his back, but he didn't want to be pushed away by County Magistrate Liu in anger.
Magistrate Liu stared at Captain Sun who came to report. He paused for a moment and then cursed: "It's useless to say all these things! To this day, who else doesn't know that they rebelled, and you still need them?" Come and sue me!" County Magistrate Liu stood up anxiously, walked twice underground with his hands behind his back, and said to himself: "But why is there no movement from the prefect of Huazhou?"
I had written a document a few days ago and sent it to the messenger. Maybe there was something missing in it. Magistrate Liu thought twice and felt very uneasy, so he quickly returned to the study and had a cup of tea. In no time, he hurried out with his clothes on and the wind in his clothes. He held a letter with a cover tightly in one hand and held a brochure bag in the other.
When he got close, he carefully handed the letter to Sun County Lieutenant and said cautiously: "You should set out immediately and deliver the official document to the magistrate in person. Don't go through the Yamen. You must drop it directly at the magistrate's office." , and also handed the kit into the hands of the county captain. Sun County captain weighed it in his hand, and it seemed to be about dozens of taels of silver. Such a reward made me happy, and I couldn't wait to leave right now. Not to mention riding a horse. I ran all the way, willingly.
Sun County Lieutenant was thinking this way, and County Magistrate Liu said there: "Here are thirty taels of silver. You can spend it on the front teeth and the boy who delivers the message. If you ask for a greeting, you will come back. There are other arrangements." "
After listening to this, Lieutenant Sun realized that it was his wishful thinking that led to his being wrong. Just as he poured a basin of cold water into his pocket, while he was slightly dazed, Magistrate Liu became anxious and said angrily: "Go quickly." !”
Sun Xianwei quickly exited the mansion, thinking to himself, if I had left you in Shijiazhuang that night, how would you have survived to this day, acting so domineering and domineering! How could I have taken ten taels from you first, even if I didn't have any money? I thought so resentfully that I went home and drank tea before riding my horse and taking my time on the road.
【Huazhou Prefecture】
Wang Yuantong, the prefect of Huazhou, is sitting at the top of the council hall. He is holding a cup and saucer, his eyes are slightly dozed, he is taking a sip, savoring it carefully, and he is living very leisurely. The appearance of several military attachés sitting below The people just stared straight at the ground, waiting quietly with numb faces.
In a meeting hall, only the mighty sergeant sitting at the head of the prefect spoke: "Those thieves are not that big now. They are just some rogues in the market. Why should the prefect be so careful!"
Wang Yuantong put down the cup and saucer leisurely and said: "Supervisor Meng, the thieves annexed Shijiazhuang. It was nothing. It's just that you and I transferred the man named Li last time and lost a lot of people. The regimental training envoy has already punished him. If If something goes wrong again, if you and I lose their virginity and don’t tell you, but still punish and banish them in vain, aren’t we asking for trouble?”
Supervisor Meng was thinking very fast. When he heard this verse, he really had to think about himself first, so he said: "Although it is said so, it is not understandable to be so cowardly. When they become bigger in the future, they will definitely The higher ups will blame you!"
Wang Yuantong not only didn't look worried after hearing this, but instead smiled: "Don't worry, that's why we're all here today. I have a plan, come on."
Seeing the mysterious look on Wang Yuantong's face, Inspector Meng quickly put his ear closer.
The sergeant below looked at the two men and whispered, and Inspector Meng's face became happy, and he didn't know what he was talking about. Inspector Meng finally clasped his fists and said: "The prefect has a wonderful plan to calm the world! I will do it right now."
He took the soldiers and went.
As soon as the young and old sergeants left, only Wang Yuantong was left in the meeting hall. He looked at the back of Inspector Meng as he walked away, and said in his heart: "Meng, you pretend to be filial on the surface, but this time you have learned my tricks."
