The spies who were sent out to inquire about Wu Yang's whereabouts have not yet returned, and there is a big event on the mountain. The governor of Yunnan and Guizhou robbed men and women to extort and extort violently, and finally provoked a popular uprising, with more than 100,000 people smashing the yamen and erecting flags to rebel. The imperial court issued an order, the neighboring provinces urgently transferred troops into Yunnan to quell the rebellion, the imperial court is usually not easy to dispatch a large army, but also to save military expenses, grain and grass, as long as the bandits are not too disrespectful, they generally turn a blind eye, and now the army is dispatched, just by the way. Therefore, the general of Guizhou was ordered to quickly send troops to Yunnan, and wiped out all the civilian armed forces along the way. The bandits in Guizhou have long been out of shape after fierce internal strife and government clearance. The only one that is still somewhat famous is the Leopard Mountain Yang Jinling. The soldiers went out of the camp in a huge way, and the bandits disappeared along the way, and even the thieves were so frightened that they ran away from home and went to the vicinity of Beijing to make a living. When they arrived at Leopard Mountain, the army stopped at the side of the road and set up camp, because Leopard Mountain was far away from the main road, and there was only a narrow sheep intestine path leading to the mountain, and the cavalry and artillery could not approach it at all. The next day, Guizhou General Zhang Hexing ordered General Lu Jiangnan to lead the infantry into the mountains to suppress the bandits, and staggered along the rugged path to the front of the mountain. Leopard Mountain is towering, steep and difficult to climb. The only path abruptly interrupted before reaching the mountain, and a cliff lay in front of you, unfathomably deep underneath, and there was a suspension bridge opposite, tied halfway up the mountain by a rope. Only by putting down the suspension bridge on the opposite side can you come to the flat land below the cottage, and now let alone attacking the village, you can't even touch the stone in front of the village. Lu Jiangnan ordered the felling of trees to build the bridge, but all the slightly larger trees in front of the mountain were cut down by Yang Jinling, and there were no materials for building the bridge at all. Lu Jiangnan had no choice but to ask Zhang Hexing for help, and when he arrived at Shen, Zhang Hexing's reinforcements climbed up with a lot of big bamboos cut down from the roadside. The soldiers began to turn the two ends of the bamboo upside down together, build a suspension bridge, and shouted when they were watching the lively black Wuchang on the mountain. Shoot the arrows, release the arrows quickly, and suddenly the arrows rained down. A row of Qing soldiers in front of him fell to the ground with arrows, Lu Jiangnan was furious and ordered to shoot, the Qing soldiers unloaded their foreign guns and lay down next to the stones and shot directly at the top of the mountain, the bandits seemed to be frightened by the dense gunshots, and there was no movement for a long time. But as soon as the suspension bridge was laid, arrows would be released, and in the end, a flaming rocket was fired with a bed crossbow, directly burning the suspension bridge that had been so hard to build.

When the news was reported to the Chinese army camp, Zhang Hexing was furious and ordered Lu Jiangnan to temporarily withdraw his troops and prepare to bombard Leopard Mountain. The huge stone was blown to pieces. Zhang Hexing shouted angrily, stop, why don't you shell the cottage, the Chinese military pipe band replied, it's too far, and the artillery range is not enough. Only by building an improvised road and pushing the cannon forward for another three miles can the entire cottage be destroyed. Although the shells were still far away from the cottage, the rumbling sound of the cannons also frightened Yang Jinling and other bandits. This kind of weapon was too shocking, the bandits fled to the back mountain, Yang Jinling and Hei Wuchang finally found the Gu King in the pile of rocks, he was so frightened that his head was drilled into the rocks, and his butt was pouting outside, Yang Jinling patted him and said, come out, the cannon has stopped. The Gu King trembled and said, I'm scared to death, I heard the ghost mother say that only thunderbolts and lightning and five thunderbolts can subdue the Gu people. That sound just now was five thunderbolts, right? Hei Wuchang smiled and said, "Brother, this is foreign artillery." His grandmother's artillery is more powerful than a thunderbolt.

Zhang Hexing was furious and ordered to build the road quickly day and night, and push the cannon forward to the front of the mountain as much as possible. We have to destroy this bandit. After receiving a report from the spies in front, Yang Jinling's six gods were worried, and once the road was repaired to the bottom of the mountain, it would enter the range of the cannon. The foundation of Leopard Hill that has been in business for so many years will be ruined. While ordering the old, weak, sick and disabled to retreat from the back mountain, he also asked people to bury grain, gold and silver. Hei Wuchang gritted his teeth and said, Master, we can't just slip away quietly, the lone wolf left 12 foreign guns, and his subordinates also taught our people how to use them, why don't I take them to attack these officers and soldiers who are building roads, and if they succeed, they will also harass them, so that they have to slow down the speed of road construction. The officers and soldiers originally went to Yunnan to quell the rebellion, and they cleaned up our rabbits and piggybacked. The soldiers are fast, and if it drags on with us for a long time, it will definitely delay the counterinsurgency. How could the court spare them? Let him feel that this fast hard bone is not easy to gnaw, give up automatically, and we will be safe.

Yang Jinling felt justified when he heard this, so he said, be careful, act at night, so that even if the attack is unsuccessful, you will be safer when you escape. It was getting dark, and Hei Wuchang said to the twelve bandits armed with foreign guns, Lao Tzu is not easy to mess with, today we will make a big fuss about the heavenly palace and fight with these soldiers of the imperial court. Let them know that Sun Wukong's nine-tooth nail rake is powerful. The little bandit muttered, Sun Wukong used a mallet, and Zhu Bajie used a dung rake. When I was a child, storytellers used to say this, and the other bandit immediately argued, what kind of mallet? Is it good to have a little knowledge? Sun Wukong obviously used an iron pickaxe. Hei Wuchang stopped, don't fight, don't talk about Sun Wukong, don't care if he uses a mallet or a pickaxe, we use foreign guns, just give me a head and cover my face wherever I go, remember, only fight those who build roads, whoever builds roads will hit whoever repairs. Let them tremble at the mention of building roads.

The lights were bright in the distance, and a large number of Qing soldiers were desperately building roads under the urging of the generals. Lu Jiangnan smiled and said to Zhang Hexing, General, the road only needs to be repaired for another five days, and our cannon range will cover Leopard Mountain, and at that time, these stupid bandits will not be able to escape. Zhang Hexing said with a gloomy face, No, five days is too long, three days at most, we can't delay it too long, the military department has urged it many times. If you can't get to Yunnan on time, you and I can't afford to be guilty. As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard the sound of gunshots like bursting beans, and Zhang Hexing hurriedly asked, who fired the shots? How could they go off the rails? The soldiers came to report that General Bing, the bandits of Leopard Mountain attacked with guns, and they had already killed our eight brothers who were building roads. If there is, they will use the pro-soldier to embarrass it. Because I didn't expect them to have guns, so there were no guards to send guards, everyone only had pickaxes and shovels, and it was estimated that there would be more dead people. Please, general, decide. Zhang was so angry that the blind donkey seemed to keep spinning in circles. Lu Jiangnan persuaded, General, let's give up. Don't miss the big things in Yunnan. Zhang Hexing thought for a while and said, if there is no attack tonight, it doesn't hurt if I give up, so many people died tonight, if I give up, I will be defeated by a few mountain bandits, and it will be too embarrassing to spread it. Besides, I am also a man who is a powerful party, how can I swallow this evil breath? Summoning the Shenji Battalion, beating the bandits, and then sending additional road guards, day and night, Lao Tzu must destroy them.

Hei Wuchang returned to the cottage unscathed, Yang Jinling ordered a reward, and everyone at the banquet could blow one by one. I said that I had killed more than 30 officers and soldiers myself, and I didn't investigate it carefully, but at least more than 100 people were killed by my hands. Hei Wuchang grinned and said, pull it down, I brought a total of 100 bullets, and I am satisfied if I can kill 20 Qing soldiers. Tomorrow we will continue to harass. Hey, this gun is a good thing.

By the next day, they were completely dumbfounded, and the heavily armed officers and soldiers blocked the entire mountain range with guns, and while guarding the soldiers who were rapidly building the road in the middle, they watched vigilantly to the top of the mountain, and the slightest movement was a volley of guns. Yang Jinling said helplessly, tonight will definitely not work, we have too few guns, we can't beat them at all, at most two days, they can shell Leopard Mountain. Let's run quickly, once they find the passage of the back mountain, they can't run if they want to, Hei Wuchang looked at the bottom of the mountain unwillingly, swallowed and spat and said, is there no other way to retreat? After speaking, he shook his head and muttered, no way, no way. Suddenly, he stared at the Gu King who was looking down and said, Brother, I have a clever plan to withdraw from the army, you, I still have to borrow you again.

In the evening, Zhang Hexing personally went into battle to supervise the work, and he shouted loudly, telling the Shenji Battalion to be more careful, not just looking at the feet, everyone was staring at the top of the mountain, and shooting at the top of the mountain as soon as there was any movement. In the middle of the night, there was still nothing to do, all the officers and soldiers were exhausted, and Zhang Hexing couldn't hold it anymore, so he explained a few words to Lu Jiangnan and went back to the big tent to rest. Suddenly, a soldier screamed, his voice trembling as if he had encountered an evil spirit. Zhang Hexing's heart tightened. Then I saw a great chaos in the army, and the soldiers who built the road and guarded it scattered and fled. Zhang Hexing looked closely, the mountains were full of red and black, poisonous scorpions, poisonous spiders, drought locusts, poisonous ticks, and poisonous snakes. The soldiers screamed, and from time to time there were people rolling all over the ground crying and calling their fathers and mothers. Zhang Hexing just wanted to scold the soldiers, but saw a big python the size of a bucket had broken through the crowd and came to him, his heart was beating suddenly, his eyes were closed and he collapsed on the ground, and the big python licked his face with the red letter in his mouth. Zhang Hexing almost fainted, feces and urine flowed all over the ground along the crotch of his pants, and after a while, everything slowly quieted down, Zhang Hexing opened his eyes, the python had long since disappeared, and even the poisonous insects in the mountains disappeared in an instant as if they suddenly appeared. Zhang Hexing rubbed his eyes again, looking at the mess, convinced that it was not a dream, let alone an illusion. only to return to the big tent tremblingly.

The next day, all the barracks in Guizhou were opened, and they went straight to Yunnan along the road, looking at Zhang Hexing's haggard and pale face, Lu Jiangnan asked worriedly, General, are you not sick? Last night, it may have been that a poisonous insect nest was accidentally dug up during road construction. Then poisonous insects sprung up, and many brothers were injured. Zhang Hexing looked back at Leopard Mountain with palpitations, and said weakly, you don't understand this kind of thing, we built a road to alarm the mountain god, and this is why we encountered such a miracle disaster. This leopard mountain, I don't want to come again for eight lifetimes.

In the Zhongyi Hall on the top of the Leopard Mountain, the big and small leaders were thunderous, we are too good, the whole Guizhou, there are groups of bandits, they rob the house, kidnap the ticket and rob the road, they are all experts, no matter how powerful they are, they will annex other people's mountains by force, but none of them dare to confront the government head-on, and Leopard Mountain not only did not pay attention to the government's arrest, but even the regular army was driven away by them. This kind of super combat power will be mentioned on the rivers and lakes in the future, but it is really a long face. The crowd was drunk. Only the Gu King does not drink alcohol, Yang Jinling persuaded, eldest nephew, you have the greatest credit for this fight against the official army, and I treat you as a god from top to bottom of the cottage, why are you still depressed? Gu Wang said, Uncle Yang, our Panlong Mountain was on the day of my aunt's wedding, and the drunkenness of the whole mountain was broken by the officers and soldiers led by Wu Yang. This incident stimulated me a lot, so I made a vow that I would not drink alcohol in case of major events. Now that we have won the battle and are eating and drinking, how will my uncle deal with the fact that the officers and men return to kill the horses? This sentence frightened Yang Jinling into a cold sweat, and he was immediately completely drunk, and he kicked and shouted that he could not drink, and he was not allowed to drink, so he got up to patrol and stand guard. The Gu King got up and went back to the house, Hei Wuchang and Yang Jinling followed, Yang Jinling asked, eldest nephew, you seem to have something on your mind, the Gu King pondered and said, I have lived in the mountains for a long time and don't understand the things outside, only to find out in this battle that the power of the guns is indeed amazing. You have finally practiced an amazing skill in winter and summer, and the other party only needs to buy a foreign gun, which will offset all your efforts. There is gold and silver on our mountain, so why don't you send someone to buy more guns and bullets with gold and silver. With a lot of training, this kind of planning may be able to last longer. Hei Wuchang slapped the Gu King, cocked his thumb and said, Brother, what you said is exactly the same as what I think these days, Master, no matter how much money you have, only a gun can guard it. Take the money out and buy a gun. Yang Jinling thought about it and said, I'm not a miser, just do this, now in this world, without a gun, I can't sleep well.
