At night, the ancestral hall of the Long family is filled with cigarettes and candlelight. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Fearing that the regular communist army on Jinggang Mountain would go down the mountain to retaliate, the patriarchs of the Longyuankou families gathered in the ancestral hall of the Long family to discuss countermeasures.

The reason why the patriarchs of the three wealthy families and the five wealthy gentry families chose to gather in the ancestral hall of the Long family is not that the Long family has a superb, or that the wealth and power are second to none, the real reason is well known, but they all have to pretend to be secretive, in fact, it is not mysterious, but it is extremely taboo:

The Long family has multiplied for hundreds of years and has many children, and all of them hold important positions in the Jiangxi Democratic Party and Communist Party organizations. Even Yuan Wencai, the number one hero on Jinggang Mountain, has two children of the Long family who have Jinlan friends with him. It can be said that in the land of Yongxin, Ninggang, and Suichuan, the Long family has to tremble three times when he says a word.

According to the usual practice for many years, in the face of yesterday's armed fight with knives and guns, as long as any of the three wealthy families opened their mouths to say a word, at most they took out a sum of money to appease them, and all the crises could be resolved, even if the other party held a grudge, they did not dare to provoke trouble again.

But this time, according to the latest accurate information, the group of mud-legged people attacked by the Qingxiang Society, which was jointly established by the three wealthy families and the five wealthy gentry in Longyuankou, had already turned around and defected to another well-equipped and powerful communist army, and the leading general of this army was Zheng Yi, the world-famous communist general in the past two months!

Although several wealthy families in Longyuankou don't know the origin of this Zheng Yi, they know very well what this Zheng Yi has done in the past two months:

He led the Kuomintang Chairman Wang Jingwei to leave Wuhan and rushed to Jiangxi Province to participate in the August 1 Nanchang Rebellion led by the Communist Party.

This battle was a sensation, and the name Zheng Yi shocked the world!

The next three things that happened made the entire Jiangxi Province deeply awe-inspired:

The first thing is that after Zheng Yi led his troops to break through, he swaggered to Yihuang, and the whole county of Yihuang was deceived by him, not only obediently offering 50,000 oceans of food, but also eating and drinking, and honoring Zheng Yi's 3,000 people for seven days.

The second thing is even more shocking, after the bold Zheng Yi led 3,000 men and horses to leave Yihuang, he actually pretended to be a Kuomintang bandit suppression force, drove directly to the city of Ji'an, openly extorted from the Dian army guarding Ji'an, and was not satisfied with getting a large amount of money and dozens of carts of weapons and food, and plundered more than a dozen large shops outside Ji'an and the landlords of five big towns, so he patted his ass and left.

The third incident happened under the noses of several wealthy families in Longyuankou, Zheng Yi led 3,000 men and horses to carry a large amount of money and materials to the west after unscrupulous blackmail and robbery in Ji'an, and when passing through Yongxin County, he suddenly rushed into the north pass of Buqian Town, seven kilometers north of the county seat, disarmed a battalion of the world's famous general Yang Ruxuan, and then exchanged more than 300 captured officers and soldiers for more than 100 Communist mud legs who were locked up in the city prison.

The people who were attacked yesterday by the Qingxiang Society, which was raised by several wealthy families in Longyuankou, are said to be the mud legs of the Yongxin Communist Party who were exchanged by Zheng Yi from prison, how can this unexpected thing not make the several wealthy families in Longyuankou tremble?

You must know that this tough Zheng Yi just conquered Ninggang County a few days ago, and now he is on Jinggang Mountain, if those mud-legged people ran to him yesterday to cry and complain, and moved troops down the mountain to retaliate, where would the three wealthy families and the five rich gentry in Longyuankou, who have been inherited for a hundred years, still have a way to live!

Because of this, the atmosphere in the ancestral hall of the Long family was extremely solemn.

Under the gaze of several family elders for a long time, Old Man Long's fat and flabby face shook slightly, and he said something that made everyone's eyes shine:

"There is no other way to go now, let's spend money to eliminate the disaster...... My Long family came to make a big head, out of 100,000 oceans, each family got together to make up 200,000 oceans, and when the bandit surnamed Zheng came, I gave up this old face and personally sent 200,000 oceans to him. ”

"Brother Shi, it doesn't matter if you pay for it, we can get more of it, but will the one surnamed Zheng accept it?" The patriarch of the Wu family, who was in his fifties, asked cautiously.

Old Man Long didn't raise his eyelids, picked up the ginseng tea, and took a sip without hurrying: "It's okay to tell everyone something, everyone will finish listening, don't spread it...... I have an unfilial nephew who sent someone back from Jinggang Mountain to bring a message, and told me not to provoke the Guo Jianglong surnamed Zheng, but unfortunately the person who brought the message arrived home before dawn this morning, and it was a little late, alas! ”

Everyone was nervous, staring at the old man Long who sighed slightly, and he didn't dare to make a loud breath.

Old Man Long slowly put down the delicate tea bowl, raised his head and glanced at the patriarchs: "The person who brought the message told me that Zheng Yi was born in a family of eunuchs, served as the chief instructor of the Whampoa Military Academy, and was also a major general personally appointed by Commander-in-Chief Jiang and Chairman Wang. ”

"But this man has the advantage of being nostalgic...... Do you know why he just exchanged more than 300 prisoners for more than 100 mud legs in the prison when he had the advantage, but didn't take the initiative to attack Yang Ruxuan and Yang Dashuai? ”

"Could it be that he has a friendship with Yang Dashuai?"

The patriarch of the Lai family, who had a lot of money, asked in surprise.

Old Man Long nodded slightly: "A few days ago, there was news in the city, which was only circulated among the officials of the county party department and the officers of the security regiment, that it was said that there was a battalion commander surnamed Song under Yang Dashuai, that is, the battalion commander of more than 300 officers and soldiers who were disarmed and captured by Zheng Yi at that time...... The night before the expulsion, the Song battalion commander stayed at the concubine's house, and admired Zheng Yi very much when he talked about his concubine, saying that Zheng Yi was famous, but he was sincere, polite in speech and demeanor, and said that their handsome and surnamed Zheng were old friends, if it weren't for the fact that there were more than 100 mud legs in the prison who were about to be beheaded, Zheng Yi would definitely not come out, but would only lead the soldiers and horses around the city, and would never have caused any trouble. ”

"The person who brought me this morning also said that the surname Zheng is different from other Communist Party generals, I have never seen him fight local tyrants to share floating wealth, even if he looted shops and towns outside Ji'an, he did not hurt a person, and even left an IOU after it, for this reason, there are already several Communist Party leaders on the mountain who are dissatisfied with him, but except for the Hunan provincial man surnamed Mao, he does not buy other people's accounts at all, and no one can control him!"

"It can be seen that Zheng Yi still has a way to deal with it, and if you think about his behavior outside Ji'an and Yongxin City, you can see that this person is not only nostalgic for the old, but also greedy for money!"

The patriarch nodded frequently, and there was a sense of relief.

Just when everyone was about to discuss how much money they should pay, the old patriarch of the Luo family stood up slowly, I don't know whether it was too big a blow and too sad, or old age and lack of energy, the old guy reminded word by word with the support of two sons and grandsons:

"Whatever is pre-planned, if not, it will be wasted, and it never hurts to be lenient!"

"Before, we were too big to think that if we bought back a few hundred guns and gathered hundreds of children of the clan, we would be able to kill all the rebellious Communist Party mud legs, but if we were not careful, it would bring endless troubles!"

"Now, let's not talk about the right and wrong in the past, just talk about the present, take a step back, even if the surname Zheng accepts the money and no longer looks for trouble, what about the surname Mao? If the surname Mao comes, what will everyone do? ”

"Alas...... I'm old and frail, I can't stay up all night, my second child just stays and listens, how much should be out, everyone sets a number, I'll go back to rest first, alas......"

Old Man Long and the patriarchs hurriedly got up to send each other, all the way out of the gate of the ancestral hall, helped Old Man Luo onto the soft sedan chair carried by four people, and only returned to the main hall after seeing the sedan chair go away, and discussed in detail the words left by Old Man Luo.

After more than half an hour, the three wealthy families and the five wealthy gentry finally reached an agreement:

In addition to preparing the 200,000 oceans to be given to Zheng Yi to eliminate the disaster, prepare another 100,000 oceans, once the surnamed Mao came to the door with the Communist team, immediately summoned all the children and tenants to fight to the death, and at the same time sent fast horses to the city to buy the rescue soldiers of the Yunnan army with 100,000 oceans!

How did the three wealthy families and the five rich gentry in Longyuankou know that just when they thought they had set up a perfect plan, thousands of people and horses on Jinggang Mountain had already poured out, and under the leadership of the surnamed Mao and the surnamed Zheng, they slowly drove out.
