Chapter 2196: The worries of King Cui's family

"The matter of Xuanwuwei is left to Shi Zheng and others to solve. All we have to do is open our pockets and wait for the troops of Shandong Preparatory Wodushi to come in." Xiao Wu picked up the kettle and poured a glass of water and handed it to Jia Shenwu.

Jia Shenwu reached out to take the water cup and said, "Which thousand-man team do you want to send to serve as the main attacker in this battle?"

"Leave it to the 300000 team!" Xiao Wu sat back in front of the table with another glass of water in his hand.

Jia Shenwu nodded.

Except for a baggage team that was left in Kaifeng Prefecture, the other three thousand-man teams all followed the army eastward to deal with Shandong soldiers and horses invading from Shandong.

"How to solve Xiao Song Ji?" Jia Shenwu said, "The two families of Cui Wang have the final say in Xiao Song Ji. I have asked someone to inquire about them. These two families are not good things. In recent years, taking advantage of the bad weather and the increasing taxes of the court, they have taken their own land to their own families through various means, and even forced several families to death."

After hearing this, Xiao Wu turned his head to look at him and said, "Do you want to attack Xiao Songji?"

"The people of Xiao Songji are not having a good life. It is not only a good thing for the people here, but also a matter that can be solved easily for us." Jia Shenwu said.

After a little thought, Xiao Wu said: "The troops from Shandong Preparatory Wodusi have arrived in Cao County and may enter Henan's boundary at any time. At this time, we will deal with the local sticks in Xiao Songji, which will disrupt the previous deployment."

"You know, I can't stand the bullying of poor people." Jia Shenwu said.

Xiao Wu smiled and said, "I understand. When we solve the troops invaded by Shandong, we will attack Xiao Songji. As long as the two families of Cui and Wang committed unforgivable evil deeds, they will not escape the sanctions of the public trial meeting."

In the following days, although the soldiers with the tiger flag and the soldiers of Xuanwuwei were stationed outside Xiao Songji, they had no intention of dealing with Xiao Songji, but there was panic in Xiao Songji.

Anyone would feel uneasy if such an uncontrolled soldier was stationed at the door of his house.

The people from the Cui Wang family have gathered together every day these days to discuss the matter of the army of tiger-shaped flags outside the earthen castle.

"Brother Cui, what do you think they want to do? It's been three days in a row, and the rebels outside have not left!" said the eldest son of the Wang family.

The head of the Cui family said with an ugly expression: "I'm not worried."

The army of tiger flags was stationed outside the castle of Xiao Songji. The two of them were most worried about in Xiao Songji.

"Dad, the rebels have not left until now, so they must do something. Unfortunately, the second brother is incompetent and has not heard any news." The eldest son of the Cui family, who was standing beside him, interrupted.

As the eldest son of the Cui family, he was barely qualified to speak a word or two when the elders spoke. If the second son of the Cui family dared to talk too much when the elders spoke, it would have long been slapped by the head of the Cui family.

The head of the Wang family looked at the head of the Cui family and said, "Or why would you let your second son talk about the tone again?"

"My second child is also incompetent. I think it is more appropriate for your Wang family to send someone to find out." The head of the Cui family pushed the matter back intact.

No matter how much he likes his second son, he is also his son. He is not as obsessed with sending his son to take risks, but he asks the Wang family to get a bargain.

The Wang family's owner smiled and explained: "I don't think that my eldest nephew is familiar with the rebels outside, so I can find out the news better. If it were other strangers, I might not be able to find out anything."

"If you have time to worry about these things, why don't you think about whether the Wang family's family business in Xiao Songji can be maintained if it doesn't leave?" said the head of the Cui family.

Upon hearing this, the head of the Wang family frowned and said, "What does Brother Cui mean? Could it be that there is a channel to get some news?"

"The rebels who came to Xiao Songji used the banner of the tiger flag. Brother Wang, you won't be confused?" The head of the Cui family said to him.

The expression on the face of the Wang family's master who heard this remained unchanged: "What's the news? Not to mention people like us, even the mud legs in the small market town know that there is a rebel named the tiger flag outside the castle."

He thought it was something, but he was startled to start.

"Since Brother Wang has heard of this tiger-shaped flag, he should know what the tiger-shaped flag will do every time he takes it, right?" asked the head of the Cui family again.

Upon hearing this, the head of the Wang family said: "What can I do? I will start burning, killing and looting everywhere when I capture the city. Isn't the rebels like this?"

"Brother Wang, you are also a smart person. How can you say Hutu now?" The head of the Cui family said in disappointment.

The Wang family’s chief frowned.

The head of the Cui family saw that the other party really didn't expect it or didn't know it at all, so he said: "Whenever this tiger flag goes, it will divide the fields for local mud legs, but the amount of land is limited, how can it be divided? So if you want to divide enough fields for those mud legs, the tiger flag will take action against local families with a lot of land and seize other people's fields."

"If you don't mention it, I almost forgot about it." The head of the Wang family raised his hand and patted his forehead gently, and then said, "Brother Cui, do you mean that the reason why the rebels outside did not leave was because they came for us?"

Unlike the poor people living in Xiao Songji, local big families like them will send people to the county town every now and then, so they learn a lot.

Especially for such a big deal about the rebels, people were sent to inquire from many sources and naturally knew what the tiger flag had done.

The head of the Cui family said, "I have only figured it out in the past two days, otherwise the unexplainable reason why the Tong Rebels had not left Xiao Songji for so long."

"Dad, the rebels really have to focus on us, but they must find a way to solve it, otherwise our Cui family and Wang family will be difficult to leave behind." The eldest son of the Cui family, who was standing beside him, looked worried.

It is related to his own personal interests, so he has no choice but to worry.

He has never seen what it would be like to be robbed by the rebels, but he knows what the family that has been robbed by the bandits will look like.

As the eldest son of the Cui family, Cui Jiajiaye has long been regarded as his own thing.

The head of the Wang family said to the head of the Cui family: "The eldest nephew is right. In my opinion, otherwise he would take out something for the rebels and give it to them to leave."

"We have given so much food to the rebels. If we give them more things, will we give them too much?" said the head of the Cui family with a look of pain.

The Wang family’s parents said: “All expenses will be distributed equally by each household in Xiao Songji, and the Cui family will not suffer any big losses.”

"Dad, I think what Uncle Wang said makes sense." The eldest son of the Cui family looked at his father nervously.
