Northwest of Nanyang City, there is a mountain called Jingshan. The terrain is steep and stretches for more than ten miles. There is a village in the mountain called Qinglang Village.
That's right, Qinglang Village is the bandit's den of "Zheng'er Ba Jing" and "Zheng Er Miao Hong". This is the information Lin Ze got from the Nanyang County Lieutenant.
It is said that there are thousands of young men in the entire Qinglang Village, operating in the Jingshan Mountains, buying villagers from all over the mountain as spies, and specializing in robbing merchants who come and go. However, they never bully the local villagers. Instead, people often go down the mountain to buy food from the villagers.
It can be said that Qinglang Village is lucky. It has not encountered any serious problems for many years of robbery, and it is still active in Jingshan.
It’s not that the Nanyang County Sheriff and the County Lieutenant didn’t want to eliminate this harm for the merchants coming and going, but every time the County Lieutenant led troops to destroy the village, for some reason, someone leaked the news every time.
Qinglang Village received the news in advance and immediately abandoned the village and fled, hiding in the mountains. From time to time, they sent out elites to harass them until the county soldiers were exhausted and had no choice but to retreat after running out of food and water.
After repeating it several times, the county captain gave up. Anyway, it was not the locals who were harmed, and the foreign merchants could only hope for their own good.
Lin Ze's first reaction after hearing this was that this village was not a simple one. This was not something ordinary bandits could do. Without robbing the locals or confronting the local government, and being so well-informed, it was most likely a force supported by some powerful person.
Lin Ze silently said sorry to the people behind the scenes, and just use you, the green wolf, as a stepping stone for my Sirius Army.
After reorganizing the three armies, under Hu Hai's order, the army aimed directly at Qinglang Village in Jingshan.
According to Lin Ze's instructions, the entire scout battalion dispersed. Some of them had already gone to Jingshan to inquire about the news. The others used the Tianlang Army's central army as the axis and patrolled a range of at least twenty miles.
On the other side, the spies of Qinglang Village used some method to detect the movements of the Tianlang Army, and reported it to the head of Qinglang Village, who was convening all the principals in the Juyi Hall to discuss countermeasures.
In the Juyi Hall, the person sitting in the main seat of Jin Dao Da Ma is Dong Huan, the head of the Qinglang Village, known as "Qinglang". Sitting in the two rows with him are the other heads of the village.
Dong Huan was the first to speak: "According to the report from the spies, the Sirius army has already started its attack and will be able to reach the bottom of the mountain in less than two hours. Do you have any good ideas?"
Yang Ke, the third master, immediately said: "Brother, why should we be worried? As long as we abandon the village and hide in the mountains as usual, when the Heavenly Wolf army runs out of water and food, they will naturally have no choice but to retreat. We will come back then."
Dong Huan paid no attention to the third master, and scanned the entire Juyi Hall, finally focusing on the first position on his left, and asked: "What does the military advisor think?"
The man called the military adviser was a thin middle-aged man with a goatee. Seeing the leader asking him, he couldn't help but subconsciously stroked his goatee: "The government has not used troops against us for many years. I'm afraid the Sirius Army will."
Those who come here are not good, why don’t we take advantage of the geographical advantage and give them a harsh blow first, teach them a lesson, and then hide in the mountains?"
At this time, the second leader disagreed: "Our village has always been on the same level as the government, and there have been no casualties in several battles. The government is powerful. If our village rashly ambush the government army, we will be resented. I'm afraid that Qinglang Village will never come back again."
There will never be peace again."
Several leaders in the hall agreed with what the second leader said. The Qin government was very powerful. We came out to be bandits and robbers for the sake of enjoyment, and we did not come out to seek death. The six countries were strong enough at the beginning, and weren't they all wiped out?
One by one, they echoed: "Perhaps there is a new county lieutenant. The new officer took office for three years and went back after seeing no results."
"Perhaps they are just going through the motions, so why ambush them and arouse hostility?"
"Yes, if we usually rob a merchant, the government won't care. If there are really casualties in the raid, I'm afraid it will be over soon after the Qinglang Village is eradicated."
When the military advisor saw this, he felt something bad, so he said to the headmaster: "I remembered that there is something else that needs to be reported to the headmaster. Why don't the headmaster and I go into the inner courtyard for a while and discuss the matter again."
The headmaster gave a faint "hmm" and said, "Think about it more and I'll ask you again later."
Then he followed the military advisor into the inner courtyard. As soon as he closed the door, the military advisor with a smile on his face straightened his face and said to the leader: "Dong Huan, you won't forget who you relied on to get to this day, right?"
The originally majestic-looking headmaster couldn't help but smile flatteringly: "Dong Huan was originally a run-down boy from a mountain village. Thanks to the Lord's respect and help, he was lucky enough to break through to the middle rank and take the position of the headmaster of Qinglang Village. Even if the Lord hadn't secretly
For helping me, I have long been rewarded by beheading the man’s head by the government, but I dare not forget the Lord’s great kindness.”
The military advisor then nodded with satisfaction: "You know what you are thinking, the Lord has an order to lead the entire Qinglang Village to ambush the Heavenly Wolf Army at all costs. Remember, no matter what the cost, even if the Qinglang Village dies.
, we must also try our best to cause casualties to the Sirius Army."
The head of the family, Dong Huan, was shocked and hesitated: "My lord spent a lot of money to establish Qinglang Village. How could you now use Qinglang Village to compete with an army from the government? Sir, would you like to confirm again?"
one time."
The military advisor's face was stern: "Are you doubting me for pretending to convey the Lord's order? Or maybe you, Dong Huan, are cowardly and deliberately disobey the Lord's order?"
The eldest master immediately said: "My subordinates dare not, but as you have seen, my lord, the other masters do not support confrontation with the officers and soldiers, but they ask me how to persuade them?"
The military advisor snorted coldly: "Trash, you are a fourth-grade master, but you can't suppress a group of third-grade ones? Then what's the use of keeping you? Persuasion? Just try to persuade them. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed."
The headmaster was startled by the murderous attitude of the military advisor. Remembering that the hall was full of good brothers who usually eat meat and drink together, he said with an ugly face: "But I can't kill them either."
The military advisor sneered and showed a ferocious look: "Why can't you kill them? The Lord said that if you can't handle this matter well, your whole family will die. So you decide whether you want to kill them or your whole family.
clear."
The eldest master thought of the only time he met his lord. Although he did not see the lord's face, the powerful aura of his body was deeply imprinted in the eldest master's heart. Looking back at this moment, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. There is no need to think about this.
?
Then Dong Huan led the military advisor into the gathering hall of Qinglang Village from the inner courtyard, and first pretended to ask: "How is it? How is everyone's discussion going?"
All the other heads in the hall clasped their fists and said: "Master, let's pack up our things and go hide in the mountains. We'll keep the green hills and don't worry about running out of firewood." After saying that, they quietly waited for Dong Huan to make a decision. After all, this is not the case.
It's a shame, they've been living like this for years.
But Dong Huan nodded in agreement, but sighed: "The village has been silent for too long, and it's time to take a step further. I decided to ambush the officers and soldiers, build a reputation, and further strengthen the village."
Everyone's expressions changed, and the Second Master advised: "Master, think twice, fighting with the officers and soldiers is the way to die."
Other heads also advised: "Master, don't be impulsive."
The military advisor shouted from the side: "What, are you going to disobey the master's order? Why don't you go down and prepare?"
The third master was angry: "You must be a villain who deceived the first master. The first master must not listen to the villain."
Dong Huan said angrily: "Shut up, no one is trying to trick me. Go ahead and prepare. I have made up my mind."
The others were still not convinced and continued to try to persuade them, but Dong Huan shouted loudly: "Come here, invite all the heads down, gather the brothers, get the weapons, and we will make a big deal."
After saying that, a group of guards belonging only to the head masters rushed in from outside and faced each head master one after another. Seeing that some heads were still unsatisfied, Dong Huan unleashed his momentum and suppressed everyone with his middle-grade cultivation.
Everyone had no choice but to go down and prepare, but no one knew what they were thinking.
On the other side, Lin Ze had already led the Sirius Army to the foot of the mountain.
