Wan Bucheng quickly ran to the restaurant and soon arrived at the private room where Yang Luchan lived. Wan Bucheng looked respectful and saluted Yang Luchan and said, "Sir, I just got the news that the bandits have gone to Wan Luchan's hometown to kill him." Come, now, what should we do? Can you immediately notify the officers and soldiers to round up the bandits who are chasing us?"
Yang Luchan said: "No, don't bother with me for now."
"ah,."
Wan Bucheng exclaimed, with a look of surprise on his face, and asked, "Sir, why is this?"
Yang Luchan frowned and said, "Is this what you should know?"
Hearing this, Wan Bucheng immediately nodded and said, "Yes, yes, it's the villain's fault. It's the villain's fault for talking too much." After a pause, Wan Bucheng continued: "Sir, let's leave the restaurant quickly. When the bandits come, they will not harass the people, but they will be very cruel to the rich. The owner of this restaurant may not be able to escape this fate if he is rich."
Yang Luchan raised his eyebrows and looked at Wan Bucheng in surprise.
This kid is quite visionary.
Yang Luchan immediately stood up, waved his sleeves, and ordered: "Let's leave immediately."
As he walked, Yang Luchan said: "You are a good boy. You are a little clever. You are a talented person." With just one sentence, Wan Bucheng instantly became excited and energetic, as if he had been injected with chicken blood. He felt that Climbed a big tree.
Wan Bucheng followed behind him and continued: "Sir, my house is dilapidated and I don't have a penny of money. Bandits will definitely not come here. Why don't you go to the villain's house to stay away from the limelight for a while? , what do you think after we come back when the bandit army leaves Wanjiajia?"
"Okay." Yang Luchan said concisely and concisely.
The two of them left the restaurant and soon arrived at Wan Bucheng's home.
The two entered the house to rest. Less than fifteen minutes later, shouts of death could be heard in Wanjiajia. It was obvious that the bandits who came to rob Wanjiajia had rushed into Wanjiajia. Yang Luchan looked at Wan Bucheng and ordered: " Go and find me some shabby clothes, I have something to do and I need to go out."
Yang Luchan was still wearing brocade clothes, which were too conspicuous and obviously inappropriate.
"yes."
Wan Bucheng took a set of clothes and handed them to Yang Luchan.
Yang Luchan quickly put on his clothes, threw the clothes he took off to Wan Bucheng, and said, "Wait here, I'll go out and take a look, I'll be back soon."
Without waiting for Wan Bucheng to speak, Yang Luchan stepped forward and rushed out of the door. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from Wan Bucheng's sight. Wan Bucheng was left with a shocked expression on his face, because Yang Luchan went out too fast, and Yang Luchan's skills were extremely agile, clearly not what an old man in his 60s should have, which made Wan Bucheng rub his eyes.
Yang Luchan moved forward carefully and quickly found a hidden place.
The terrain here is slightly higher, and we can observe the general situation of Wan's hometown. As we can see, a group of Taiping soldiers with their heads wrapped in cloths rush into the countryside quickly, heading towards restaurants and landlords' homes.
Yang Luchan chuckled and said to himself: "Grab it, rob it, you won't be able to hold it for long."
After finishing speaking, Yang Luchan's ears twitched and he said in a deep voice: "Who."
He turned around and looked around. When he was about to take action, he found that the person who came was from his side, because it was none other than the vanguard general Liu Jintang. Liu Jintang crouched, hunched his back, and whispered: "Mr. Yang , I just arrived with my people, how is the situation now?"
Yang Luchan said: "At the beginning, the bandits were rushing into Wanjiajia."
Liu Jintang nodded and watched in the dark.
Two hours later, the bandits who came to rob began to escort the stolen food back. Carts of food and boxes of money were all moved outside Wanjiajia. Liu Jintang did not catch up immediately, but After the bandits who escorted the food and money left Wanjia Village, they whispered: "Mr. Yang, you can withdraw from Wanjia Village. I will follow with my soldiers."
After finishing speaking, Liu Jintang left immediately.
Yang Luchan returned to Wan Bucheng's home, took Wan Bucheng with him before leaving, and rushed towards the military camp.
After Yang Luchan returned, he settled Wan Bucheng before arriving at the Chinese army's tent.
Yang Luchan raised his hand to salute, and then said quickly: "Your Majesty, the soldiers under Shi Dakai's command have robbed Wanjiajia and left with the looted food. Now, Brigadier Liu Jintang has led the vanguard army to inquire about the news. I think, Our army can set off, and the opportunity to defeat Shi Dakai has arisen."
Zeng Guofan shook his head slightly and said: "We can't do it now. If we send troops now, there will be too much noise and it will be easy to be discovered. I think it is best to wait until it is almost dark, and it will not be too late to send troops again. After all, Liu Jintang discovered Shi Dakai's Shi Dakai will definitely not be able to escape from his lair, and now we must send out scouts to eradicate any possible spies of Shi Dakai."
Li Zhen said: "I agree with Brother Bohan's opinion and send troops at night."
…
After the robbery, the bandit soldiers returned carefully all the way.
It's a pity that Liu Jintang has been following behind and detected the other party's movements without anyone noticing.
After the army returned, Zhang Suimou inspected the food he had snatched back and frowned slightly.
Although the robbery of Wanjia Village this time was more food than other places, it was still difficult to store for three to five months. Zhang Suimou came to Shi Dakai and said, "Your Majesty, if the situation of robbing Wanjia Village today continues, We don’t have enough time to go down. I think we should send more soldiers to explore various villages tomorrow. After confirming the information, send all our soldiers down. In this way, we can form a force and gather food in a short time."
"OK, alright."
Shi Dakai also hoped to collect food as soon as possible and then hide it.
At this moment, Shi Dakai felt a sense of crisis as time was running out.
Shi Dakai ordered: "After a busy day, bury the pot to make rice and prepare something to eat." After the order was issued, the soldiers in the army immediately prepared something to eat. After eating, all the soldiers rested in the mountains and forests to recharge their batteries. , time passed, a bright moon hung above, and the cold moonlight fell down, shining on the mountain forest, decorating the mountain forest like a dream.
Shi Dakai sat down with his back against a tree, not sleeping yet.
Somehow, he always felt uneasy and found it difficult to sleep.
Shi Dakai raised his head through the gap and looked at the moon hanging in the sky. He frowned into the word "Chuan". Shi Dakai couldn't sleep. He stood up and walked towards the mountains and forests. He simply went on patrol. He patrolled various important positions in the mountains and forests. When we arrived at the edge of the mountain forest, we felt something strange.
In the silent night sky, there seemed to be a very familiar voice coming.
This sound...
Footsteps.
Yes, it was the sound of footsteps. Shi Dakai looked into the distance outside the woods and found no movement. However, he squatted down and put his ear to the ground, and then listened carefully.
In an instant, Shi Dakai's expression changed drastically.
ps: First update, I was delayed by something tonight, sorry for the delay.
