Chapter 76 Eating fast

 Cao Yao is like a blasting maniac, he is so happy when he mentions explosives.

But this time it was difficult for them to use explosives.

Firstly, the thing is too loud, and secondly, the city gate is too thick, so their dung-pulling treasure may not be of use.

A group of people will look stupid if they spend a long time in the city gate without exploding.

In the following days, the entire Black Dragon Mountain became active.

Liu Chengzu asked the county government for a grace period, saying that they were trying to find ways to raise money and food.

The several shops that Chengyun bought for Liu Xiangyu in Fucheng earlier were all mortgaged and sold for no money at all.

There were also gold and silverware stolen from the Wangzhuang Fort, which were all melted into gold and silver bars that were easy to carry.

After discussing with Cao Yao, Chengzu Chengzong distributed 2,700 acres of land in Liujiazhuang to relatives in Wufu in exchange for their land in Heilong Mountain.

They didn't tell anyone about this, and others just thought they were eager to save their father.

The rebellion does not involve the Nine Clans, but three generations of blood relatives are gone. Close blood relatives like the carpenter Liu Xiangliang must be taken away on the day of the business.

Those who don’t need to be taken away will be affected if they stay in Heilong Mountain, so we should compensate them with more land.

In addition, the food moved into the mountains was secretly transported to the tiger's waist at night.

It remains to be seen whether the tiger's waist can be saved after the incident, but as the saying goes, a cunning rabbit has three burrows, and a place to store food is better than none.

The family's ancestral tombs and ancestral halls were also secretly moved into the cave where Liu Xiangyu stored food at night.

I don’t dare to leave a monument, I can only renew my incense when I have the opportunity to come back in the future.

It would be better for our ancestors to have nothing to eat for the time being than to ask the court to dig up their graves and expose their bodies.

Neither of them dared to tell their mother about it.

Mrs. Cai had been atheistic for half her life, but she suddenly believed in Buddhism. She said all day long that she was eating fast for Mr. Liu, and that Buddha would definitely turn Mr. Liu's misfortune into good luck just like he did the year before.

In fact, even if you don’t believe in Buddhism, there is no meat for people to eat on Heilong Mountain.

Even Xiao Zhuanfeng and Mei Dianmei are fasting.

If you want to eat meat, you can only eat these two.

Later, Liu Chengzong also put on his official uniform and entered Fucheng in the name of a visit.

Li Wanqing, Cai Zhongpan and Guo Zhashi pretended to be followers. After entering the city, they were escorted to identify the residences of wealthy families, military officers and generals.

Liu Chengzong went directly to the West Government Office of Fushi County to send money to visit Mr. Liu.

"Our brother is in good spirits, but the jailer is nothing. We throw him into a cell with seven or eight robbers."

After coming out of Fucheng and meeting up with Liu Chengzu, Liu Chengzong said: "Fortunately, those thieves and thieves are sensible, and I teach them how to read every day."

"If you don't put them together with the robbers, who will you put them with? Nowadays, in addition to the robbers in prison, there are those who resist taxes and murders. Put the tax collectors together with the tax resisters."

Liu Chengzu thought broadly and said with a smile: "Then you shouldn't be beaten?"

Chengyun answered: "It's better to be with the robbers. My second uncle can also educate them."

Several people burst into laughter. In these days, let alone their father, even if they invited a great scholar and political master to come, they would not be able to educate the people who were robbing them.

The road towards Tiger Yao became more and more remote, and gradually there were no pedestrians on the road.

Seeing that there was no one around, Chengyun spoke very quickly, as if his words were borrowed, and said: "Yang Baihu has sent twelve waist knives into the city and temporarily stored them in a shop in the south of the city, as well as a cart of hay.

There are only two unsold shops in the city. It is best to start at Shunyang Gate. The other shop is in the west of the city. There is no city gate there, so it is far away from Dongsheng Gate."

Liu Chengzong nodded and wrote down: "Then Shunyang Gate, the mansions of wealthy households in the city, the military officer's office, and the money and grain shops are promising?"

"Watch it."

Chengyun took out the account book in his pocket and listed the treasures of his family: "The two rice stores don't have much food in stock, but the official warehouse has food sent by Brother Shizi, and there are still four to five hundred shi.

There are enough for the hungry people outside the city to rob. The gold and silverware shop is in the east of the city. Next to it is a shop called Zhang's shop called Zhang's shop for rare goods from the north and south. Despite the name, the items inside are all made by craftsmen."

Cheng Yun had a mysterious smile on his face: "Brother Lion, when you rob the gold and silver shop, don't forget to put a fire on this rare goods shop and light it up."

Liu Chengzong raised his eyebrows: "Why, do you have a grudge against the owner of this store?"

"Hey, those rare items in the shop are all made by military craftsmen, Zhang Qianhu's shop."

There is indeed a grudge.

"How was it?"

Liu Chengzu asked: "Do you have a rough plan in mind?"

Liu Chengzong stopped his mount and led his horse up the slope.

A few people followed and sat down on the slope. Liu Chengzong took a deep breath, thought about it, and said: "We have a general plan. The city gate seems to be well-defended, but in fact there are not many people."

As he spoke, he picked up a branch and sketched the general terrain of the city on the ground, saying: "First of all, outside the city, the hungry people are an important part, and this requires shooting down the sky."

Li Wanqing suddenly heard his name, quickly looked at the map carefully, and asked: "Tiger General, tell me, what do you want me to do?"

"I need you to lead two groups of people. Don't tell them what to do. Sneak into the hungry people outside Shunyang Gate, disperse, and become familiar with the hungry people for three to five days."

Li Wanqing nodded firmly, and then encountered another difficulty: "But the trench is two feet deep, and I can't get in even if I'm familiar with them."

Liu Chengzong waved his hand and said: "You don't need to worry about this. In the name of training, you make an agreement with the chiefs to meet every morning and evening. On the day of the attack, let them see the city gate tower set on fire and make a noise.

Think of a slogan, for example, the tiger general's army has entered the city, and the poor brothers have entered the city to distribute food.

After entering the city, organize the hungry people to rob the grain merchants and the government treasury."

Li Wanqing didn't understand this and asked doubtfully: "They've all entered the city. Why should I care about them? Can I help you?"

"Don't worry about me, you don't care about them. Once chaos breaks out, how many people will die in the city?"

After Liu Chengzong finished speaking, he looked at his brother: "What's more, now that Li Bei is waiting for an official position in Yulin, the Yan'an Guards will soon attack after the chaos in Fucheng. If you don't organize them, let the officers and soldiers chase you and me?"

Then he said: "I want to hand over the city gate to Brother Cao. Brother Cao's men are all veterans. Eight people should be able to seize the city gate and guard the suspension bridge."

Liu Chengzu also nodded in agreement and said: "It's okay for the people in Cao's team to do this, but in order to ensure smooth operation, it's best to have more people. I think twelve people are more suitable."

"That's okay, then twelve, and then four to six of my people will go to Qianhu's house to kill Zhang Qianhu first, and then go to the county government.

Zhang Qianhu may not be here, but the county magistrate and Dianshi must be at the Yamen. Kill them, rescue our elders, collect gold and silver and set fire to them, and finally my brother."

Liu Chengzu was surprised and said: "You don't plan to let me enter the city?"

"No plan."

Liu Chengzong shook his head and said: "The Yan'an infantry needs someone to guard against it. We only have Heilongshan rural soldiers at our disposal, and this must be my brother. Bring that cannon and prepare it here.

It's best if they don't come out. If they dare to come, my brother will defeat them."

After that, Liu Chengzong clasped his hands together and spread them out again: "The rest is to see how we can escape. I haven't decided yet whether we should go east to join Zhang Tianlin or go to Fugu County to join Wang Jiayin."

Liu Chengzong paused and suddenly raised his head: "Brother, can you feel it? Ming Dynasty is going downhill.

Us."

Liu Chengzong moved his hand in a circle among several people and said softly: "Gently push it."
