"...This matter is easy to say, and I, Zheng Tu, know everything about it. In the final analysis, it is Xu Wufu who covets Di Niang's beauty. If he failed to take a concubine, he would hold a grudge against Xu Jieji - you don't know what Xu Wufu is like
Ah, I've seen him sitting in the butcher's shop. He was staring at Di Niang's waist and hips from behind, and he was wiping his saliva on his sleeves. I knew then that Xu Wufu would definitely harm Xu Jieji. What a coincidence.
It happened that someone falsely accused Xu Jie of having an affair with the bandits of Hutou Village. You said that Deng Langjun had just arrived and was not familiar with the situation in Tongbai Mountain, so he mistakenly believed what the traitor said. It was understandable, right? But Xu Wufu,
The father and son of Xu Heng were really bad guys. When they found out about this, instead of helping Xu Jieji, they added insult to injury and made a vicious plan, asking Xu Jieji to lead people to defend Qingxi Village. Hutou Village was powerful, and everyone had their own agenda.
As you can see, if Xu Jiejie surrendered to Hutou Village, they happened to be convicted of being a bandit. If he didn't surrender, and was killed by Hutou Village, this bitch would just take Di Niang away and make him a kid - you guys.
Are you talking about whether Xu Wufu’s thoughts are poisonous or ruthless?”
"...At any rate, there was an expert behind Xu Jieji. He refused to surrender to the bandits and could not just sit back and wait for death. So he escaped from his shell like a cicada and sneaked into Jinsha Valley to hide. You will know this after he said it.
, is the person who secretly protects Mr. Wang. Think about it, Mr. Wang was killed by a traitor and was demoted to Tangzhou. There are so many loyal and righteous people in the world. Is it any wonder that there are a few masters who protect him secretly?
It was the masters around Mr. Wang who saw through the evil intentions of the traitor and Xu Wufu, and they secretly helped each other when the road was rough..."
"...Xu Jiejie had no choice but to hide in Jinshagou and wanted to secretly protect his family. However, Xu Wufu had a guilty conscience and secretly encouraged Pan Chenghu to drive him away, but he did not want to backfire and provoke Pan Chenghu to lead the thieves to hunt deer.
Taizhai is a cocoon of its own. Xu Jie-level ignored the past grievances and helped Xu Huai to defend Dazhai. He also took advantage of the situation to seize Xiema Mountain and completely solved the future troubles of your Xu family..."
"...Now that the big thief is in front of him, Deng Langjun finally knows that Xu Jiejie has been wronged. Xu Jiejie is also a man who understands justice. He will not argue with Xu Wufu and the others at this time, but everyone knows better. Don't go there again.
Xu Wufu and Xu Heng’s father are fooling around..."
Xu Heng walked out of the meeting hall. Xu Huai, who had not been seen for a while, moved a stone pillar and sat in the school yard. He squinted and smiled at Zheng Tu being surrounded by the generals, while Zheng Tu was spitting and talking nonsense.
The grudge between the father and son and Xu Wujiang.
Three large iron pots were set up in the middle of the school grounds, and the water was boiling. While Zheng Tu was talking nonsense, he didn't forget to cook his roasted mutton.
Xu Heng's face couldn't help but twitch again.
"This mutton happened to be cooked, and they happened to have a good conversation. What a coincidence!" Xu Huai stretched and stood up. Without looking at Xu Heng, he drew his knife and picked a piece of lamb chop from the iron pot, and licked the hot mutton chop with his mouth.
After eating it, it was said to be delicious, and then all the generals were gathered around to share the mutton and mutton chops.
Although Xu Wufu, Xu Heng and his son, Xu Bosong, Xu Zhongyu and others were forced to bow their heads in front of reality, in order to further win people's hearts together, the grudges behind this still have to be revealed with both truth and lies.
Only by constantly exposing the faces of Xu Wufu, Xu Heng and his son, and encouraging more low-level generals to stand against them, can we not have to worry about them being able to overturn the chessboard in the future.
Zheng Tu was very talkative when he was in the market. He intentionally or unintentionally mixed some colorful conjectures, supplemented by roasted mutton delicacies, but it made all the soldiers salivate. When Xu Heng came out, he usually looked down on these young masters with silver guns.
The wax-headed guy Zheng Tu didn’t shut up either.
But it was Deng Gui, Xu Wujiang, and Xu Wufu who came out pretending to be amicable. Only then did Zheng Tu stop talking, pick up the fattest roasted mutton on a plate, put it on the plate, and carry it over like a treasure.
"What do you think about attacking the enemy's stronghold in Tiaohutan?" Deng Gui also sat on a stone pier and asked Xu Huai.
"Hit wherever Deng Langjun points, hit whomever you point to, what nonsense can I say?" Xu Huai said.
Now, under the leadership of Cheng Yi, Huaiyuan is actively preparing war weapons to attack the camp.
The camps built by Pan Chenghu, Guo Junpan, Zhou Tian and other bandit chiefs to fight against the villages on the east bank of the Baijian River were relatively simple.
If the bandit army mobilizes five or six thousand main troops to march eastward for a decisive battle at this time, and the Xu clan soldiers and the patrol officers and soldiers add up to less than a thousand people to fight against them, Xu Huai will still have to be very energetic, but
As long as the main force of the bandit army did not enter the Baijian River for reinforcements after three days, it would be much easier for them to pick a bandit camp and defeat them one by one.
Now in Beiqiao Village, in addition to Deng Gui who is personally in charge, Xu Wujiang, Xu Wukun, Xu Wuliang and others are directly responsible for preparations for the battle, there are also a group of rising stars such as Tang Pan, Xu Xin'an, Yin Peng, Xu Sihu, Tang Qing, etc. Xu Huaicai doesn't want to go
Worry about the little things.
Deng Gui and Xu Wujiang grabbed Xu Wufu and others because they wanted to extract more money and food from the Xu family to support subsequent combat expenditures. Xu Huai did not need to pay attention to such matters.
…………
…………
Xu Wujiang and others were stationed at Beiqiao Village, but the bandits on the east bank of the Baijian River were weak and did not even dare to leave the camp. The communication between Beiqiao Village and Huaiyuan became smoother.
Xu Huai didn't need to worry about anything, so he took Yin Peng, Zheng Tu and others to Jinsha Gou Village.
Yin Peng's family had already moved to Jinsha Gouzhai; after seizing the army, Liu Qiong'er did not go to Huaiyuan with Xu Huai and others, but stayed with Su Di, Xu Wuliang and others, and once evacuated all the family members to Jinsha Gouzhai
go--
When Xu Huai arrived at Jinshagou Village, the sun had already set. Su Di, Xu Guanshan and others were packing their bags and preparing to take the children back to Xinzhai on the east slope of Shituoling.
In the past month or so, almost all the young men in Jinshagou Village have been trained and prepared for war. The construction of the village has come to a halt. Su Di and Xu Guanshan have withdrawn with more than a hundred people from the new village on the east slope of Shituoling.
After spending four days here, everything seemed a bit messy.
Many things here in Jinsha Gouzhai have been forced to stop, but the chute method does not require young people to mine gold. Women and children can mine the sand and mud from the stream bottom and collect water for leaching. However, this has been the case in Jinsha Gouzhai for more than a month.
The matter of breaking.
The world is in turmoil and food is extremely precious, but gold is still much stronger than copper, silver, calligraphy and paintings and other treasures, and is a hard currency.
It is a pity that Jinsha Valley stretches for seven or eight miles and is too steep and dangerous. Especially in seasons with abundant rainfall and rising water levels, there are very limited riverbanks and riverbanks for people to stand on.
In addition to Zhou Jianxiong, Yin Peng and others' families have all moved here. In the past month or so, some of the refugees who fled the banditry and fled to Yuhuangling for asylum have been selected and taken in. Now the residents of Jinshagouzhai
There are more than 130 people, and more than 20 chutes are cut and sawed from big trees every day, and they can produce seven or eight guan of gold sand.
It doesn't look like much, but when accumulated in a year, it is enough to produce the annual harvest of four to five thousand fields of dry land. It is more than enough to feed two to three hundred people, but that's all.
"What are you doing squatting here stupidly?" Liu Qiong'er came over with her skirt in hand. Seeing Xu Huai squatting on the edge of the cliff, staring at the simple village below in trance, she raised her foot and kicked him and asked.
Looking at Liu Qiong'er's snowy ankles was very tempting, but from the ankles up, she was actually wearing thin silk pants under the skirt, which was not noticeable at all. Xu Huai raised his head to look at her charming face and said: "You
Go tell Aunt Seventeen that people cannot withdraw to Shituoling New Village, and everyone must settle down in Jinshagou Village..."
"Doesn't it mean that Xu Wufu has accepted the reality and is no longer struggling, so why should we beware of him?" Liu Qiong'er said doubtfully.
"It is not to guard against Xu Wufu. Cai Qing took charge of the Privy Council and wanted to join forces with the Chihu people to attack Beiyan and restore Yanyun's homeland. However, the Chihu people had risen in Mobei for thirty or forty years. Wang reported to Prime Minister that the internal worries of Dayue had not been eliminated.
, the military preparedness was not good, and at this time, the strategy of driving away tigers and devouring wolves was adopted, and they were worried that the evil tigers would eventually bite back, so they strongly opposed the alliance of troops in the court. This was also the direct reason why Mr. Wang Tan was demoted to Tangzhou," Xu Huai said
He said, "Now that the main war factions in North Korea and China are extremely powerful, it is probably very difficult to stop the alliance of troops. Once the plan to drive away the tiger and devour the wolf fails, Dai Viet is likely to be counterattacked by the Red Husbands, and the Central Plains will subsequently fall into pieces."
In the war, Tongbai Mountain cannot stay out of it. So we cannot think of using this place as a gold mining land instead of large-scale development just because Seventeenth Uncle and others have grasped the overall situation of the Xu family..."
"Where are you talking about?" Liu Qiong'er was stunned for a while, couldn't help but squat down, held Xu Huai's face, stared at him and asked, "Are you sure you are serious and not unfounded?"
The Dai Viet dynasty was established for more than 150 years, and the Khitan and Dangxiang people rose up and established their country in the west and north at about the same time. They have always been a serious trouble in the Central Plains, and there have been countless border disputes, large and small.
The Dai Viet Forbidden Army also suffered many disastrous defeats with extremely serious losses, but the imperial court was able to actively organize defenses and counterattacks each time, and in the end successfully blocked the Khitan and Party troops from going deep into the heart of the Central Plains.
The rise of the Red Huren should arouse enough vigilance, but if Xu Huai hadn't trampled her heart beyond recognition long ago, Liu Qiong'er would have scolded him for talking nonsense.
"Shouldn't it be that you will believe whatever I say now?" Xu Huai asked pretending to be surprised.
Liu Qiong'er pinched Xu Huai's cheek with her hands.
"Ah," Xu Huai raised his hand to beg for mercy and said, "Tongbai Mountain has a slight wave, and in just a few months, there are stormy waves. These all show that the hidden worries in the peaceful world are far beyond ordinary people's imagination. Drive the tiger to swallow
If the wolf fails, whether there will be serious backlash immediately, I can’t say anything with certainty now, but it’s never wrong to be prepared for a rainy day..."
"What kind of reason is this? How is it different from unfounded worries?" Liu Qiong'er glanced at Xu Huai with her beautiful eyes and said, "Even if I have no brains and am confused, I still obey you. How can you convince others with your reasons? Shituoling
There are built houses and newly cultivated fields there, and the access is very convenient. Who would give you these reasons to stay in Jinshagou Village, which is closed and cannot cultivate much arable land?"
"Difficult, does this make you appear to be sharp-tongued?" Xu Huai said with a smile, "In short, we have to keep more people in Jinshagou Village, but we choose dangerous terrain at all costs to build Wubao, and build Yuhuangling.
Xiema Mountain can be accessed by carriages and horses. There are not many grain fields in the mountainous area, so we must find iron ore on the left and right for mining as much as possible..."
Banditry broke out violently, and Huaiyuan was besieged for more than a month. The importance of food and iron as the most basic materials was fully reflected in Huaiyuan's defense organization.
Needless to say, food, even if there is a lack of arable land in the mountains and food production is limited, after the catastrophe in Tongbai Mountain, the major clans should try their best to purchase food from the outside world and increase the reserves in the mountains.
Speaking of iron materials, if Huaiyuan was not the trading center of Tongbai Mountain, a large amount of materials were intercepted before the siege, including hundreds of thousands of kilograms of iron materials, plus more than a hundred craftsmen stranded in the market, and every person in the rural camp company had a sword and spear.
If you don't have enough money, how can you resist an army of thieves that is several times larger than yours?
In order to cope with the tragic catastrophe that is coming in the first year of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Jinsha Gouzhai wants to enhance its future military mobilization potential. Currently, these are the only things it can do...
