In the late twelfth lunar month, the weather was dry and cold. With the unremitting efforts of someone and the unexpected effect of a golden awl, the bandits in Mangdang Mountain finally mobilized in advance. All the leaders unanimously agreed to send troops, and all the remaining grain was released. Everyone recommended it.
Boss Zhou Yi and Zhou led everyone to make a fortune of millions of gold and silk according to the reliable information of Mr. Zhang.
Once the irrepressible human heart is released, it cannot be stopped.
According to Zhang Sanye's suggestion, in order to dispatch the troops properly and march quickly, only half of the tens of thousands of Mangdang Mountain bandits were sent out as the so-called "elite".
However, only half of them, a mere four to five thousand people, had a full meal and thought they were going to make a fortune and grab food. They hurriedly gathered in the valley in the middle of Mangdang Mountain. Once the flag was raised, the momentum became unbearable...
As for Zhang Xing and other big leaders, they gathered on a cliff dozens of feet high in Dangshan Mountain. Everyone held their heads high and wore red cloaks. They held huge flags with the word "righteousness" high. There were more than a dozen flags representing the corresponding surnames of the big leaders.
It was also drifting in the wind, plus there were really two to three hundred practitioners and veteran bandits behind it.
What a good momentum.
In this regard, Zhang Xing can only be grateful to Mr. Zhang... Firstly, he is grateful for the legacy he left behind, and secondly, he is grateful that he has a good surname and does not even need to change his flag.
"Everyone, everyone!"
The leader that everyone recommended was Zhou Yi, the head of the Zhou family, and he had long known that he was just here to be the head of the family, and that he would run away after making a fortune, but at this time he was surrounded by people.
At this time, even though I was going through menopause, I still couldn't help but feel agitated, and even my riding crop almost broke...
"Brothers! Since you have entrusted your lives to me today, I, Old Zhou, must give you an explanation. I will first seize a million gold beads. If everything goes well, I will also take hundreds of thousands of stones of food from the river, and then
Let’s go back to Mangdang Mountain to sort things out, and we’ll have a big foundation!”
As soon as this statement came out, everyone from Boss Lou down to the bosses were surprised. Is this different from what he said? Is it really just a temporary pep talk to deceive the people below?
However, these bosses couldn't stop thinking about this scene. As expected, Third Master Zhang showed up early and used his official tactics. He immediately turned around, reined in his horse, pulled out the broken knife from Jing'antai in front of everyone, and then used it to kill the boss.
The big horse pulled hard on his crotch, then raised the knife with all his strength and shouted::.
"Determine the foundation! Define the foundation! Follow Boss Zhou to determine the foundation!"
Others could just pay it back. Zhang San's twenty or thirty elites and Boss Zhou's core subordinates immediately started shouting. Then the core subordinates of other big bosses didn't know what was going on, so they could only follow the shouts in a hurry. In the end, people all over the mountains and plains were filled with shouts.
Shouting:
"Determine the foundation! Define the foundation! Follow Boss Zhou to determine the foundation!"
The sound was like thunder, shaking the mountains and rivers of the Central Plains, the East and Jianghuai. It also shocked several leaders to turn pale, and they did not dare to hesitate any longer and joined in the thunder.
On the other side, Boss Zhou was exposed to the thunder. His cheeks were flushed and his eyes were slightly moist. He seemed to be feeling something and wanted to say something more. But in the end, he turned around suddenly and wrapped himself in a suit.
The man in the red cloak, moving like flying, with hundreds of real elite gangsters, rolled up a cloud of smoke and dust on the spot, and turned down the mountain in high spirits.
Thanks to the excellent valley terrain of Mangdang Mountain, the process of lining up and forming a team was eliminated. After about an hour, the team followed Boss Zhou and other bosses and meandered out towards the Huanshui River in the southwest.
By this point, Zhang Xing, who was in charge of the far left wing, had completely relaxed.
Without him, he, who had participated in large-scale organizational activities in Jingantai, knew better than anyone that such a hastily gathered mob, even if the leader among them was indeed an elite and master, once troops were sent out and wrapped up in a huge temporary organization,
He will also panic and lose his ability.
At that time, messy things will happen one after another, and morale and people's hearts will be intertwined with each other, making it impossible to stop easily.
Then a lot of information will be accepted or denied by people's wishful thinking, and in the end it will be rushed and completely defeated.
Otherwise, why do we need military drills and sophisticated military systems, as well as military laws and logistics?
I think yesterday, Zhou Yi and others discussed it, and they all said that as long as those Eastern Border gangsters send troops, they will be coerced by the brigade. But in fact, once troops are sent out, it is not just those Eastern Border gangsters who will be coerced. How can there be so-called coercion?
Intimidation and inducement?
Many times, people will be overwhelmed by the general trend without realizing it, and they have no way of knowing it. Instead, they think it is their own wishful thinking.
"Master Zhang, the boss of my house has invited you."
As soon as he set out on the road, someone came to see him, and he was also an important person.
Zhang Xing did not shirk, he just let Qin Bao and Chef Fan lead their own teams, and he led the Xuzhou sergeant who had obviously gained status in a day or two and three or four capable gangsters on horseback to quickly move to the front of Boss Lou's queue.
, and shouted from a distance: "Boss Lou, what are your military orders?"
Boss Lou opened his mouth to speak, but could only shut up. Then he rode up to meet him and said in a low voice: "Brother Zhang, please stay here for a while... I came to you because I have real interests."
Zhang Xing immediately turned his horse around and rode abreast with the other party. Then he held his hands in front of him and said, "Boss Lou is just talking. I am here to listen attentively."
"That's it." Boss Lou responded nervously. "You heard Zhou Yi's words just now... Why do I feel that something is wrong?"
Zhang Xing woke up in an instant, but laughed as he walked away: "What is Boss Lou thinking? Those were just big words when sending out troops. How can he rob gold and silver and then rob food? Even if he robs, how can he gain a foothold?"
Boss Lou sighed while trying his best to follow the opponent with his horse's belly between his arms: "Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst. Look at how powerful this army is... and there is another key point. I'm afraid you didn't expect it!"
"What's the key?" Zhang Xing pretended not to know.
"The owner of the golden cone controls the Longgang army!" Boss Lou said seriously. "And the three masters of the Zuo family have grown so fast in recent years. I wonder if that one will have something in mind and make a false response when the time comes.
, It’s really just a matter of supporting the people named Zhou in Mangdang Mountain, one on the upper reaches of the Huan River, and the other on the lower reaches of the Huan River, to create a balance.”
"Then what should we do?" Zhang Xing asked solemnly without stopping, but became equally serious.
"I haven't thought about it either." Boss Lou had no choice but to say it bravely. "But I must remind you to keep it in mind... Don't forget, although we are here to be leaders, we are all
The kindness of the three masters of the Zuo family."
Zhang Xing nodded, closed his eyes and thought for a moment on the horse, then suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes burning: "Boss Lou, the thing is like this, I will never forget the kindness of several masters in my family... But today
, what Uncle Zuo told me is that he still has to rob the million gold and silk. Before this happens, I can only push Boss Zhou forward! Do you think so?"
Boss Lou could only nod: "Yes."
At this point, Zhang Xing suddenly lowered his voice: "As for what happened next, I have an idea. Maybe I can prevent Boss Zhou from establishing this foundation... I wonder if Boss Lou is willing to cooperate?"
"What do you say?" Boss Lou hurriedly asked.
"It's very simple." Zhang Xing said sincerely. "I don't understand the story of the owner of the golden cone, but this time to do this business, after all, our master Zuo is stronger, and master Zuo's strength is our strength.
, if one day, the situation is indeed like that... we will use our strength, Boss Lou will find a few other bosses, and I will pull the strings of the Eastern Territory, and then support Boss Lou to do this.
The real leader of Dangshan! The foundation you have established should be established by you, Boss Lou!"
When Boss Lou heard this, his heart suddenly shook, and even his fair face immediately trembled. However, he suppressed the shock and waited for the other party to finish speaking before hurriedly waving his hands: "How can this be done?"
"How can I prevent it?" Zhang Xing immediately stretched out a hand and grabbed the opponent's waving hand, and then his words became more sincere. "What Boss Lou said just now was nothing more than saying that if something happens
The master of Zhui is determined to divide the power of the three masters of the Zuo family in the upper reaches of the Huan River, and we cannot resist it, so he will let Mr. Zhou come to Mangdang Mountain to truly establish a foothold... And if that is the case, it is all about dividing the power anyway, why not
The three masters of the Zuo family were asked to choose Lou Boss for this hilltop position. I'm afraid they would have to choose Lou Boss, who has a closer relationship, right? Du Po Zhen and I could only stand up to each other.
Boss Lou, if you do this, you can sleep well!"
At the end of the conversation, Zhang Xing shook his opponent's arm repeatedly on his horse, while Boss Lou didn't let go, but just declined, but in the end he didn't say anything more to guard against Zhou Yi.
Even after a while, when Qin Er sent someone to call Zhang Xing to go back, the boss of the building even asked Zhang Xing to find a robe made of brocade and asked Zhang Xing to take it back specially to express his feelings.
Zhang Xing went back with his brocade robe, put it on on the spot, and then continued to urge everyone to march.
In this way, after a hard day's march, at night, as soon as the arrangements were laid out, Boss Zhou came to invite him again... Zhang Xing did not dare to neglect, and hurried to see him again.
Unexpectedly, when they met Zhou Yi, the boss just invited three or four bosses to have a banquet and drinks. He repeatedly spoke in the middle of the meeting, praising everyone's abilities and achievements. Unbeknownst to others, Zhang Xing had to drink from the toast.
He will drink all his wine, shake his head when he hears praise, and then come back with emotion, and then talk about Boss Zhou's style.
After drinking all the wine, Boss Zhou sent another good horse as a gift, and Zhang Xing brought it back in a grand manner to replace it.
The next day, early in the morning, Boss Han came to visit again, and then told him what seemed to be crucial information.
"Didn't you receive a reply from your benefactor?" Zhang Xing, who had been drinking and snoozing a bit last night, met Lao Han in the camp, but he only looked sleepy. "Where is your master?"
"It doesn't matter where... my benefactor is, but to be honest with Mr. Zhang, my benefactor is a key spy in the Longgang army, so after the night before yesterday, I sent my confidants to cross the Huanshui River to look for him in Longgang.
According to the journey, we should have returned in the middle of the night last night, but until now we have never returned." Boss Han looked anxious.
If Sima Erlong and Fulongwei could bring your confidants back alive, they would really commit suicide by jumping into the Huan River.
Zhang Xing sneered in his heart, but there was a look of doubt on his face: "Is your benefactor's spy reliable? Can he really know about such a confidential matter? And in this important military camp, can your confidants go in and handle it calmly?"
Boss Han had no choice but to stamp his feet and immediately whispered into the other party's ear: "To be honest with Mr. Zhang, my benefactor is actually General Chen Lingchen, the general of Yingyang Zhonglang in Longgang Military Village."
Zhang Xing was stunned for a moment, then immediately scolded: "Don't come to coax me!"
"How can I coax you?" Boss Han almost went crazy with worry. "That's it, your golden cone was made from the dragon bones after my old master went to sea to find the dragon corpse in the past!"
Zhang Xing thought for a while, was silent for a long time, and finally nodded slowly in response to the other party's eagerness: "If that's the case, then everything is right. No wonder Boss Lou and Boss Zhou are so confident. It turns out that the other party's military support is basically their own.
People...and if this is the case, Old Han, your subordinate has not come back, so what are you afraid of?"
"What?" Boss Han was surprised for a moment.
"I said, if that's the case, what are you afraid of if your subordinate didn't come back?" Zhang Xing said disapprovingly. "Your subordinate just met an elite sentry from the Jing'an Taiwan patrol group and died on the road, so what?
Will it delay us from doing this big deal? The officers and soldiers on the opposite side are all our own people, what is there to worry about? The entire Huanshui River, except for the group of people in charge of escorting at Jing'an Terrace, almost all of them are our people, what's the point?
Something to worry about?”
"This..." Boss Han was unable to refute for a moment.
"The only flaw that needs to be considered is one." Zhang Xing continued to speak seriously. "That is whether you told your confidant about our march plan... What if your confidant was killed on the road by a master from Jing'antai?
If you confess before killing, then we can only speed up the march!"
Boss Han shook his head repeatedly: "I definitely didn't tell him about the march. I just asked him to explain and verify the Golden Cone."
Zhang Xing nodded and simply saw off the guests.
The other party had no choice but to turn around and leave.
But as soon as the people left, Zhang Xing couldn't wait to put on his brocade robe and scarlet cloak, mounted the good horse he got last night, urged his three to four hundred people in the camp to get up and eat quickly, and then quickly set off.
Again, as long as the army moves, as long as it keeps accelerating forward, unless Chen Ling can fly over on the spot, no one can stop this chaotic march.
Sure enough, at noon, Boss Zhou and Boss Lou both voted invalidly on Boss Han's message that "Longgang did not reply", because, after a day and a half of hasty information collection, the big business news brought by Mr. Zhang
It has already been confirmed by many parties:
It is true that some people have heard about the construction of big golden pillars in Dongdu;
Indeed, some people have heard the news that the eight families in Jiangdong were bullied and plundered by Jinyi dogs;
More importantly, as the day approached the Huanshui River, all reports from the downstream pointed out that there was indeed a large convoy escorted by the Jinyi patrol group that abandoned the waterway midway and switched to land. This is of course. In order to cooperate with Zhang Xing's plan,
Hu Yan indeed recruited many carts from Linhuan City, took many trackers away, and went straight to Longgang.
Many people even saw the gaffe of the Shangji County officials when faced with this scene.
Even when they arrived at Huanshui in the afternoon and approached Jishan, they heard the news that "Yitian Sword" had flown in to Jishan to stop the dam construction, which coincided with the news that Yitian Sword was going to stay in the fleet and act as bait.
So, when so much information is verifying Mr. Zhang’s message, just like what Mr. Zhang said to Mr. Lou when he came to court that day, if the information is correct, big business is ahead, and other
What does it matter if the message is slightly contradictory?
What's more, Boss Han's situation is probably just a delay in news from the rebel army.
However, that evening, just in front of Huanshui River, Zhang Xing still faced a man from the Jishan Xu family who was actually marching to block the other side of Huanshui River. After being beaten by the "Yitian Sword", he suddenly faced Mangdangshan who came from the brigade.
The "sworn brothers" were inevitably a little wary and panicked, so they refused to allow everyone to cross a simple pontoon bridge they were guarding.
Now, the head of the Zhou family and the head of the Lou family have gone to persuade him in person, while the other dozen or so heads have gathered at the Huan River, perhaps stationed together on horseback, waiting for news.
Suddenly, Zhang Xing saw Qin Bao approaching on horseback, so he hurried over to meet him slightly.
"Third brother."
Qin Er was careful to slap the horse and come over. "Du Pozhen asked his deputy named Fu Boshi to tell me privately, saying that as long as the army crosses the Huan River, the matter will be completed, but if it does not cross, things will change later!
What he means is that if you give a few words of encouragement, he will directly lead the troops across the river, and then we will follow, and no one else can stop him! As the saying goes, it will be cut off when it is cut off!"
Zhang Xing nodded, then turned back silently, but ignored Du Pozhen's gaze, and just looked at the setting sun directly opposite for a while. After waiting for a quarter of an hour, he suddenly jumped on his horse and stood by the river.
He was wearing a brocade robe, a horse and a scimitar, and a red cloak. Qin Bao understood it even more, so he stood aside with an iron gun in one hand and a large banner with the other hand... In an instant, he attracted all the leaders.
gaze.
"Everyone, we can't wait any longer!"
Zhang Xing stood by the Huan River and spoke loudly. "I don't believe that until now, there are still people who haven't figured out what our trump card is this time... The wealth of millions of gold beads is on the other side of the Huan River. It's all up and down the entire Huan River."
No matter how elite our people are, the Jinyi Patrol Cavalry, how can a small number of people led by a black ribbon be a match for our five thousand soldiers? But the chance is only tomorrow!"
"Mr. Zhang, what's the use of all this?" Mr. Zhao said jokingly, holding the reins of the horse. "What's the harm if you know it? Mr. Xu doesn't believe it in the dark under the lamp, and he doesn't dare to let it pass!"
"That's what I want to say. Mr. Xu's family is in trouble. He just saw that we have strong soldiers and horses, and is afraid that we will swallow up his Jishan inheritance." Zhang Xing also looked ferocious. "But let me tell you, now the arrow is on the string.
The situation that has to happen is to swallow him up blatantly, so what? Although he is a landlord and claims to have two or three thousand people, how can he compare with us who are all elites? Do we really want to ruin so many of us just for him?
What’s your future as a master? I don’t know what you masters are thinking about, but I, Mr. Zhang, took such a big risk just for the millions of dollars in wealth from the other side! If you don’t leave, I will go directly there!”
After saying that, the area around the pontoon was quiet for a while. No one said a word. All the leaders only stared at Zhang Xing. Only the horses under their crotches were twisting left and right and neighing, which hinted at everyone's mentality. However, Zhang Xing paid no attention to it and just turned the horse's head.
Just hit the horse and get on the pontoon bridge.
Qin Bao also held high the banner and followed closely behind.
When Du Pozhen saw this, he turned back and winked.
But at this moment, Boss Zhao, who had been a little impatient before, suddenly let out a loud roar, grabbed everyone, and jumped into the river. Then his Lihuo Zhenqi rose up into the river, stirring up the icy water in the river in the evening, and for a moment the steam was like
The clouds swam majestically to the other side.
While swimming, he still tried his best to shout: "Three radiances and four emperors, even the gods and dragons can't stop grandpa from getting rich today! If you want to get rich, cross the river with me, Zhao Xingchuan!"
On the east side of Huan River, everyone was stunned for a moment, but after a while, they swarmed forward.
On the other side of the river, the Jishan bandits were caught off guard and dispersed almost instantly. Before sunset, the magpie nests were occupied by doves from Mangdang Mountain.
