The great defeat of Shan Ming's team was partly due to his little father.
It is said that when a neat team was formed on the hillside and the sound of conch shells was heard, the idlers at the end of the team began to make a commotion.
They talked a lot, but there was only one core idea, that is, we are here to rob, not to sacrifice our lives.
Then I didn’t know who was taking the lead and started to retreat. The people who retreated at the beginning probably didn’t intend to run, but just wanted to wait and see from behind.
But this retreat cannot be stopped. We are all smart people, who wants to block someone else's knife?
So everyone strives to be first, for fear of falling behind.
Shan Ming's mistake was that he didn't put down the core believers, otherwise he could still be restrained.
When the retreat from the rear spread to Shan Ming's core troops, everyone hesitated and could no longer deal with it.
At this time, my little dad did something he thought was not worth mentioning, which turned the retreat into a big one.
"They're killing them, run away."
After saying that, regardless of the blank stares of the people around him, the little dad took Wang Zhang and Liu Bo and ran back.
The people on the left and right looked at each other, threw away the wooden spears in their hands, and ran back.
Poor Shan Ming, who just looked like a fairy, even his father-in-law ran away, and before leaving, he even snatched away his beloved horsetail, and was captured in embarrassment.
The three of them, the little dad, were running all the way. They had to rush back to the ferry to catch the boat going home.
Liu Bo hated the local Taiping Road and had no relatives in his hometown, so he simply followed his little father to wander the lakes and seas.
After all, it was because he was getting older. Halfway through the journey, he couldn't run anymore, so he had to rest for a while.
In this way, when we arrived at the ferry, it was already noon.
The little dad asked a warehouseman at the ferry out of breath if he had seen a cargo ship coming from Jinan today. They were going to catch this ship back.
Not surprisingly, the warehouse clerk didn't even raise his head, pretending he didn't hear anything and went about his business.
After all, Wang Zhang was used to doing errands in the palace and knew how to deal with these warehouse officials.
He said that he and others were members of Wei County Zuo's family, and he had already communicated with the chief of your warehouse about whether to use this ship to go to Jinan for business.
When the warehouse official heard this, he smiled, told them in a friendly manner which ship was from Jinan, and even enthusiastically led them to the destination.
In this way, the warehouseman and the captain of the boat had a conversation, and the three of them got on the boat and could finally go home.
They took the boat back from Guangli and it was a smooth journey. When they passed by Zhu'a, there was no trace of blood or fire here.
The warehouse clerk who registered the records on the wharf has also been replaced by a younger one, and the forage yard has been renovated, and a group of concubines are still busy there.
Everything is the same as before, except that the people have changed.
The ship docked at the dock, and the three of them helped the ship load a batch of goods, and the ship was flattered.
No official person he had seen in the past had ever done this.
That's right, from the perspective of the captain, the three little dads were brought by the warehouse officials, that is, they are official people.
The boat arrived at Licheng, and the three of them got off the boat.
It is said that people who live close to home are more timid, so my little dad is more timid than others.
When I met an acquaintance and found out that their gang husband was not dead, I took him to the pavilion.
I was also timid to face Chang Sun Ting's family and didn't know what to say.
The three of them first bought some coarse salt and coarse cloth in Licheng, pushed a wooden cart, and pretended to be traveling merchants. Then, wearing scarves, they walked around and arrived at Dasangli.
The younger father took the lead and knocked on the door of the eldest brother Zhang Gouzi's house, but no one opened the door for a long time.
Someone nearby saw it and came up with a wary look on his face and asked:
"What are you doing with this family?"
The little dad didn't say anything and motioned to Wang Zhang.
Wang Zhang replied with a smile:
"This family surnamed Zhang asked me for a piece of coarse salt in New Year's Eve. I'm busy. They just delivered it now. But after knocking on the door for a long time, no one came out. What's going on?"
"What's wrong? Something happened."
The little dad became nervous as soon as he heard this. He didn't care about being discovered and asked with a pinched voice:
"What happened?"
The man looked at his little dad and felt that he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember it, so he just said:
"His waiter was on his way to watch the shift, but he encountered bandits on the way. Not only did he lose the grain, but he was also dead. And that's not the end of it. Someone from the official's office insisted on pretending that his family was an official slave."
The little dad was shocked, grabbed the man's hand, and shouted:
"Were you captured and made into an official slave?"
"I remember you." This man recognized his little dad at this time.
The little father's eyes widened, and he and Wang Zhang stuffed the man with cloth, and took the man prisoner into the dense forest.
Liu Bo was frightened. Seeing that his father was a kind-faced man, he didn't expect that he was a big thief with the way he cut off people.
This is really like stepping out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's den again.
The little dad didn't have time to care about Liu Bo's fragility now. When he went to the forest, he plucked the cloth from the man's mouth and asked:
"Where did Zhang Gouzi's family go when they were caught?"
Unexpectedly, the man looked confused and asked:
"Who said they were caught?"
"Isn't that what you just said?"
"Hey, I mean the human resources department is here to arrest them, but Gouzi and his family were taken into the mountains by Heizi and the others."
Hearing this, my little dad was relieved. This man is really annoying, he even breathes heavily when he talks.
But seeing that his eldest brother and his family were fine, he relaxed and helped the countryman up, apologizing:
"I'm sorry, brother, I'm in a hurry."
Unexpectedly, the man didn't care and asked:
"How do you sell this coarse salt?"
Okay, little daddy still doesn’t understand:
"Hey, no matter whether I sell it or not, I gave this bag of salt to my brother."
"Uh, that's not a big deal. Do you want to sell the coarse cloth?"
Good guy, can you move it?
The little dad picked up a piece of cloth, and the man was about to take it, but Wang Zhang stopped him.
"Brother, I gave you this cloth. If people ask you where you got this cloth and salt, what do you say?"
The countryman was not happy:
"I bought it, how did I get it, can others take care of it?"
This man is a wonderful man.
But Wang Zhang was still worried and reminded:
"Brother, you are a sensible person, these things are not so easy to get.
We are all from the mountains, and if we go out and hear other opinions later, we will have to talk to you about it."
The man hesitated when he heard this, but he weighed the salt bag in his hand, looked at the coarse cloth in Wang Zhang's hand, and gritted his teeth:
"Okay, then give me another one."
Just like that, the countryman went back in a hurry, carrying two pieces of cloth on his back and a salt bag around his neck.
And my father also took Wang Zhang and Liu Bo towards Shigu Mountain, fifty miles away.
There, they can find Zhang Gouzi.
Just as the three of them set out on the road to find Zhang Gouzi again, Zhang Chong, who was far away in Jiyin County, fell into a huge crisis.
The powerful people nearby finally decided to take action against Zhang Chong.
In fact, when Zhang Chong and others were putting out grain, the powerful people in Chengyang County almost knew that a group of thieves had entered the area.
It was only because we had not found out the details of Zhang Chong and others that we could not move.
Zhang Chong actually made a mistake in his calculations. After all, he was not from this world and lacked experience and understanding of the degree of control of powerful people in the countryside.
He thought that the Xue clan members were party staunch elements who hid in the grassland. Even if they were destroyed by him, those fugitive elements would not report to the official.
But Zhang Chong only thought about the first level.
In fact, the Xue family has been in exile here for nearly ten years. How could the powerful people in Chengyang County not know about it?
However, they were unwilling to participate in the political struggle at the upper level, so they acquiesced in Xue's existence.
They, who live on the ground, have seen too much that today the east wind prevails over the west wind, and tomorrow the west wind overpowers the east wind.
No one is willing to take the initiative and add insult to injury to Xue. After all, who knows whether today's party bosses will be powerful in the future?
But now the situation is different. A group of thieves with unknown origins used some method to break through the wall of the Xue family's dock. It is said that the core members of the Xue family either ran away or were hanged under the big locust tree.
Now, their opportunity has come. After all, who doesn't envy Xue's Wubi and Shengtian?
Therefore, they kept sending people out to find out the details of this group of people, but after asking various Caoze water bandits, they all said that the bandit named "General Shi" was not one of theirs.
At this point, they were relieved. This group of people was just helping the bandits to annihilate them, Yi Er.
The next step is to send troops to annihilate the thieves.
Originally, this matter was all led by the Zhong family, a first-class powerful family in Chengyang County.
But unfortunately, they somehow offended the Li family of the Cheng family. The water bandit kept outside by the Zhong family was taken away by others, and all the Zhong family members were buried alive.
Therefore, before the victory was achieved, the generals were killed first.
However, Mr. Zhong introduced these powerful men to the water bandits from Leize, Chengyang City, and we all agreed that they would not want the land, but they would want all their wealth and 20% of their wealth.
This just hits it off with powerful people.
What they want is land. If someone has land, no matter how rich they are, they can come in the blink of an eye.
In this way, everyone agreed that the leaders of the Zhong family, Sun family, Xie family, and Jia family in Chengyang County jointly agreed that each family would send fifty soldiers and two hundred Lei Ze water bandits, a total of four hundred soldiers, to destroy the stone.
General.
In May, one early morning, this group of powerful soldiers appeared near Xuejiabi.
As soon as they arrived, they quickly occupied a traffic artery and a ditch near Xuejiabi.
This group of people obviously knows the art of war. The ditch and ditch here are the main water sources near Xuejiabi.
Occupying this place will not only make it easier for our army to obtain water, but also cut off the water supply to a Xuejiabi wall. This will hit the key point with one move.
There are three small ridges on the north side of the ditch, which naturally became the forward positions for Chengyang County's powerful military.
Among them, Jia's soldiers and Zhong's soldiers were stationed in Toudaoling, Xie's soldiers were in Erdaoling, and Sun's soldiers were stationed in Sandaoling.
In addition, the Lei Ze water bandits were stationed on a high slope at Baibu in the south of Lingnan.
These water pirates came from three groups and each set up camp on the high slope. One of them had a banner with the word "Ren" in the middle, and a camp was set up fifty steps to the left and right.
Together with Chengyang's powerful soldiers, they surrounded the wall of Xue's dock from east to west.
However, after all, they are powerful guests, thieves and water pirates.
Although they occupied the terrain, none of them thought about digging holes and building forts or erecting antlers. They just put up many tents.
At this time, Zhang Chong and a group of military officials were standing on the wall of the dock, looking down clearly.
Duman was also brought along by Zhang Chong, who wanted to cultivate Duman's military talents.
