Compared to Zhang Liang's adopted sons who were eager for quick success and couldn't clearly see the situation, the mighty men of Shan Yue were much more sober.
However, as a temporary alliance, the commander-in-chief of Shanyue could only say: "Since the new governor is so weak and incompetent, then we will go to Yuntai Mountain and drive the Han people who occupy our mountains and minerals out of our territory.
!”
A few words made his men scream, wanting to rush up the mountain and chop off Yang Fan's head.
Changsun Chong was somewhat disapproving!
There is no doubt that Lei Kunming, the commander-in-chief of the Shanyue Sect, is worthy of being one of the most outstanding leaders of the Shanyue people.
His father's generation was annihilated by Zhang Shigui's army during the rebellion at the beginning of Zhenguan. Most of the Shanyue people at that time were killed by Zhang Shigui. It is said that the soil was dyed red at that time.
After this battle, the Shanyue people were unable to recover and retreated to the mountains. The imperial army had no choice but to deal with these Shanyue people who had lived in the deep mountains and old forests for generations.
So, everything has been fine for so many years.
Thanks to Lei Kunming's bravery and ability, and his sister Lei Jiaojiao's advice, the people of Shanyue have gradually regained their strength over the years.
This is also the reason why Zhang Liang returned without success in the battle to annihilate the Shanyue people in the Jiangnan area.
Zhang Liang even joined forces with his old enemy to deal with Yang Fan.
In this cooperation, although Zhang Liang and Lei Kunming were very confident, the morale of their men was also very high, and they even had an absolute advantage in terms of numbers.
But for some reason, Changsun Chong always felt that something was wrong.
You must know that the fierce Tubo cavalry also collapsed in Yang Fan's hands. Can they really decide in a battle today?
He was really afraid of what Yang Fan might have behind him!
You must know that when Yang Fan traveled in Chang'an, he always had more than a dozen guards with him, but now he was unprepared when he entered Yuntai Mountain. Could it be that Yang Fan was really careless?
Looking at the crowd of excited soldiers and Shanyue people, it was impossible to tell which ones were Han and which ones were Shanyue people because they had all changed their uniforms.
However, their purpose today is the same, they are all here to deal with Yang Fan.
But for some reason, Changsun Chong always felt a little uneasy.
It might be okay if Lei Kunming just led his people to burn, kill and loot for a while before retreating to the mountains and forests.
After all, the combat effectiveness of Datang's imperial troops was limited, and they were not as powerful as Yang Fan's guards.
As the leader of Shanyue, it is impossible for Lei Kunming not to have heard of Yang Fan's reputation.
You know, Yang Fan is not an ordinary person. If Yang Fan escapes this time, it will be a nightmare for the Shanyue people.
It is impossible for Lei Kunming not to have thought of this, but for some reason, Lei Kunming actually agreed to this alliance.
If you say you want to cede territory and become king, that is simply a dream!
The Tang Dynasty today is more than twice as powerful as it was at the beginning of Zhenguan?
The army marches east and west, conquers the south and the north, and is invincible. This is the time when the country's power is at its peak and the army is strong.
It is simply unrealistic to want to cede territory and become king.
If it is really because of Zhang Liang's few words that he tried his best, it is obvious that Shanyue, the commander-in-chief, is not a simple-minded person.
Is this Lei Kunming stupid? No matter how you look at it, he doesn’t look like it!
Looking at Lei Kunming, Changsun Chong's thoughts swirled in his mind, and there was always a trace of doubt lingering in his mind.
Especially Lei Kunming's sister, where is she now?
At such an important moment, why didn't you participate in this operation?
The most important thing is, how could that girl who grew up in the mountains be able to withstand Zhang Liang's attacks all these years?
A little girl from the mountains has such a strategy. Is she really just a savage mountaineer?
Then how come she has the upbringing and etiquette of a lady?
Many things were connected together, and Changsun Chong felt more and more fishy!
The two parties were screaming under the encouragement of their respective coaches, waiting to go up the mountain to kill Yang Fan, the governor, and then seize the territory and money of Yang Fan, the god of wealth...
Changsun Chong was in a daze here, and the guard behind him asked: "Master, what are you thinking about?"
Changsun Chong waved his hand but did not answer.
No matter what kind of thoughts Zhang Liang and the Shanyue people hide, Changsun Chong doesn't intend to care about them.
He doesn't have that much curiosity.
The only goal now is to use their hands to kill Yang Fan, and then he can return to Chang'an quietly.
He didn't want to keep getting involved with Zhang Liang and the Shanyue people, and he might be accused of treason one day.
If that is the case, even his father, Changsun Wuji, will not be able to save him by then.
At this moment, Zhang Liang raised his arms and shouted: "Children, now is the time for us to take revenge. We must let others know that if we kill our brothers, we must be willing to die."
Lei Kunming on the other side was not to be outdone and shouted: "Brothers, stand up and show them that we Shanyue people are the strongest, bravest and fearless warriors in the world, show your courage and strength
, rush!”
"Kill! Kill! Kill..."
Thousands of people were instantly stimulated to the point where blood filled their pupils and they almost lost their minds. They held various weapons and rushed up the hillside howling.
In their opinion, as long as they kill Yang Fan, they will have countless wealth and food.
As long as the Han people are driven out of Jiangnan, they can dominate Jiangnan and become local emperors.
Thousands of people rushed forward with roars, and Changsun Chong was shocked.
Although he despised these people from the bottom of his heart, Changsun Chong could not admit that these greedy and shameless soldiers and the murderous Shanyue people rushed up the mountain. Once they were in close combat, Yang Fan had no chance of getting down the mountain alive.
Those who follow Yang Fan up the mountain will also be killed.
At this moment, Changsun Chong felt that he was being unscrupulous?
In order to deal with Yang Fan, so many people were implicated.
"Chang Sun Chong, Zhang Liang, in the mountains and forests, we Shanyue people are the most brave and good at fighting. We will definitely be able to help you kill that Yang Fan. I hope you will keep your promise when the time comes. If not, don't blame our sect commander for refusing to die!"
Lei Kunming didn't know when he came to Changsun Chong and Zhang Liang. His tall and burly figure was like an iron tower, giving people a great sense of oppression.
Zhang Liang took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Absolutely not! A certain person has united all my adopted sons. As long as the warships left in the river are defeated, Yang Fan will be like a turtle in a urn without any reinforcements."
"As long as you help kill Yang Fan, I will definitely help Zong Shuai become the king of the mountain and rule the south of the Yangtze River!"
Changsun Chong also quickly said: "Yes, Commander Zong, as long as Yang Fan can be killed, I will definitely ask my father to petition the court to recognize the status of the Shanyue people in Jiangnan."
Hearing this, Lei Kunwu let out an eardrum-shocking laugh. He patted Changsun Chong on the shoulder with his big hand, nodded and said: "Okay! I naturally believe in your promise. Now we are divided into two groups. We Shanyue people go straight to
Yuntai Mountain, look at how Yang Fan was beheaded under the swords of the Shanyue warriors. As for the reinforcements on the river, Duke Lao Yun went to deal with them!"
"Haha, it's just what I wanted. Let's go separate ways. Take care!"
"Take care of yourself!"
After saying that, Lei Kunming strode up the mountain, while Zhang Liang rushed to the river with his soldiers and adopted son.
Changsun Chong grinned and rubbed his shoulder, which was almost broken by Lei Kunming's slap. He cursed silently in his heart and led the guards closely behind him to follow him up the mountain.
He wanted to see the tragic image of Yangfan dying in the chaos.
…
On the mountain, it's a different story. Since the land has been leveled long ago, the materials for the ironworks are readily available.
A large-scale iron-making plant has been built, and the iron-making furnaces have been installed.
Watching the chimney of the iron-making furnace billowing with smoke and red molten iron flowing out from the gate, the craftsmen watching the excitement burst into cheers.
Almost all families closely guard the secrets of iron smelting and will never let ordinary people watch.
Now Yang Fan is not shy about letting them watch the entire iron-making process. What kind of trust is this?
A strong sense of identity emerged from the hearts of the craftsmen.
A scholar dies for a confidant!
In fact, no one is stupid. These people were either transferred here or hired at a high price. Everyone signed a confidentiality contract.
This means that they are Yang Fan's people from now on.
From now on, if Yang Fan wants them to live, they will speak out; if he wants them to die, they will die!
Although the Tang Dynasty was not a slave society, slaves still existed.
Although these craftsmen don't understand what the confidentiality contract is about, they think it is no different from the previous slaves.
But it was the same hard work, but Yang Fan did it more authentically. Not only did he get wages, but his family also shared the land. It was like pie in the sky.
Anyway, craftsmen are as lowly as dogs in this era, so who are they selling to?
If you sell it to Yang Fan, you can get a high salary. Even if you die unfortunately, the whole family can get a large sum of money safely and even live a better life.
This life is worth selling!
Just as everyone was cheering loudly for the iron, one moment it was a quiet and deep mountain forest, and the next moment countless people armed with swords, guns and clubs rushed out.
What's happening here?
Yang Fan was in a daze!
Could this be the Shanyue people Li Ke mentioned, right?
Although Li Ke is handsome, his foul mouth is as good as that of a crow. He is so effective!
However, shouldn't the Shanyue people be in the Fengzhou area? Why did they come to Suzhou?
Not only was Yang Fan confused, the guards and craftsmen were also dumbfounded!
Xi Junmai was the first to react and shouted: "These are mobs, all guards should protect the father-in-law!"
The people who followed Yang Fan up the mountain were all battle-experienced special forces.
After the Tubo War, the combat methods and experience of these special forces have improved rapidly.
No need to be reminded by Xi Jun to buy, but the most important position was consciously stuck.
Once these people launch an attack, they will definitely receive a devastating blow.
Seeing the craftsmen standing stupidly, not knowing how to dodge, Yang Fan pushed and kicked them, scolding each craftsman awake: "You don't know how to dodge, do you want to die? Hurry up and pick up the knife to protect yourself, a group of
Are you afraid of these random people who don’t even have enough to eat?”
Wang Xiaojie drew out the sword from his waist and shouted: "Except for the guards, everyone else should retreat to the iron factory!"
The panicked craftsman quickly calmed down.
Wang Xiaojie followed Yang Fan in Tubo and fought with the Tubo Wolf Cavalry with real swords and guns.
Compared to the power of the Wolf Cavalry that covered the sky and shook the mountains when they charged, the chaos in front of them was obviously not enough.
Xi Junmai often fought against Tibet and was not afraid of the Shanyue rebels at all.
As long as Yang Fan, the general, was not afraid of the courage of his soldiers, the team quickly defended in an orderly manner.
The craftsmen retreated slowly under the command of Wang Xiaojie, and all retreated to the ironworks.
Because the materials for building the ironworks were carefully prepared by Yang Fan, their sturdiness was naturally guaranteed, and it happened to be the best bunker at this time.
Originally, according to what Xi Junmai thought, the Tang Dynasty had very strict control over weapons such as swords, guns, bows and crossbows, and such weapons of mass destruction would not easily be spread among the people.
The Shanyue mob didn't even have a decent iron weapon, so they posed no threat at all.
But he made a miscalculation. The Shanyue people actually cooperated with Zhang Liang and Changsun Chong.
When all the craftsmen retreated to the ironworks, all the muskets in the guards' hands were loaded, and they aimed at the Shanyue people.
When he was ready, Xi Junmai shouted: "Ready, shoot!"
Dozens of pistols were fired together, making a deafening sound, and bullets continued to fly into the densely packed crowd.
"Ah, ah, ah..."
"Puff puff……"
How can the flesh and blood of the unsuspecting rioters withstand the bursts of pistol fire?
The bullet pierced hard into the flesh and blood, causing blood and flesh to fly everywhere, causing a cry!
After several rounds of bursts of fire, the rebels left countless corpses across the mountain, and finally got closer to the valley, but that was all.
Although these Shanyue people are making a living in the mountains and forests and are extremely strong, they can only wail helplessly when faced with the fire from thermal weapons. This is almost a one-sided massacre!
Although he knew that Yang Fan's men were brave, he didn't want to be so strong.
Only then did they remember Yang Fan's cruelty. These people were ruthless people who slaughtered all 100,000 Tibetan wolf riders.
In terms of combat effectiveness, these people are like gods descending to earth for a ragtag group of people like them.
Even some Shanyue people who started to approach shivered in the face of their compatriots who kept falling.
How can the war be fought when so many people have died before contact has even begun?
How could people like myself be Yang Fan's opponents?
Panic spreads like a plague!
Everyone in Shanyue was frightened, and they all retreated in unison.
Xi Junmai and the guards all breathed a sigh of relief.
Although countless enemies were killed in several rounds of bursts of fire, the remaining Shanyue people were still scattered all over the mountains and plains.
Looking around, these people must be no less than two thousand!
If they can't break the enemy's courage, once they come into close combat, even if these people are a mob, it will be enough to cause heavy casualties to the more than a hundred guards.
Yang Fan looked at the Shanyue people all over the mountains and plains, but Yang Fan was not so optimistic. He calmly ordered: "All guards shrink their defense lines, with pistols in front, Hongtian Lei behind, and Hengdao on one side to cover. If these people dare to charge, kill them all!
"
Having said that, his bodyguards were fine, but some of the dudes who accompanied Yang Fan up the mountain did not have the psychological quality of special forces, and all of them looked ashen.
What Yang Fan fears most is that someone will be unable to bear the pressure or suppress the fear in his heart and collapse.
Once someone collapses, it will cause everyone's will to collapse, and then they will all be killed by these Shanyue people.
Thinking of this, Yang Fan grimaced and said loudly: "These are just a group of hungry mobs. You are all the most noble people in the Tang Dynasty. Are you afraid of such a group of barbarians?"
"In today's battle, anyone who dares to take action or is seriously injured will be asked by His Majesty to grant him a title. As long as he kills a mob, he will be rewarded with a thousand guan! This time, as long as he wins, everyone will be rewarded with a reward of 5,000 guan!"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then burst into earth-shattering cheers.
"Hoo...ho ho!"
Why are you here? Is it for your own future?
Isn’t it just for a meritorious service that can make him a wife and a son, and isn’t it for a lot of money?
Confer titles, reward money...
This is a super reward that most people would never dare to imagine!
Seeing Yang Fan being so generous, what else can everyone say?
Whether they are playboys or craftsmen, they are all determined to fight to the death!
Besides, if we can't kill these Shanyue people today, everything will be over.
But if you can escape and fight your way out, the reward you will receive is far more valuable than your own life!
There must be a brave man under the heavy reward!
Yang Fan's promise was like a shot in the arm for everyone, raising morale to an unprecedented level.
"Fight to the death and never retreat!"
Everyone's blood was boiling and they were roaring wildly!
To be able to become the dandy of a major family, one must have good skills, otherwise how can one bully others?
Although these people are dandy, none of them are cowards!
