Chapter 63: Poured Blood Mold
The sail rises again, riding the wind and waves.
"Jun Hao, there is the Jing County ferry in front of you!"
On the Qingge River, three four-zhang brocade sailing boats lined up on the river, and a seven-zhang brocade sailing ship sailed quickly across the river. Ma Yue leaned on the mast and stood with his arms folded, the sound of the river rushing and the waves exploded in his ears, his face was very cold, but his heart was tormented like a charcoal fire falling into a crockpot.
There was nothing more exciting for him than revenge.
Gan Ning stepped on the stern of the Jinfan Fighting Ship, holding a ring knife and pointing at the distant harbor, the most eye-catching thing was the five four-zhang Jinfan ships moored outside the ferry.
This is the real JMC, unruly and unscrupulous.
As soon as Ma Yue's feet stepped on the ground, more than 20 young men armed with knives rode to meet him, and bowed to Gan Ning in front of the merchants without hesitation.
"I've seen the Chief!"
Gan Ning strode over and patted everyone's arms affectionately, and the brothers who came down from the boat behind him also stood around, he took Ma Yue and introduced to everyone: "This is Ma Junhao mentioned to you in the letter, Junhao has great kindness to me, you should treat him like me." Ah Zhong, these days you are here to inquire about the news, tell Jun Hao what news you have found. ”
The young man who was called Ah Zhong by Gan Ning looked very capable, about twenty years old, he couldn't see anything special in a dark color suit, what caught the eye was that a scar on his forehead went straight into the ends of his hair, and he saluted Ma Yue when he heard the words: "In Xia Pengshi, I have seen Brother Jun Hao, the second in the family, so you can call me Ah Zhong, there are many people here, why don't we find a place to talk in detail first?" ”
After Ma Yue nodded, Gan Ning agreed, leaving more than ten people to guard the boat, and the remaining group of more than 30 people rode towards the outskirts of Jing County.
After a while, everyone found a vacant land in the forest on both sides of the road, gathered the chariot and horse, and set up a camp tent for a short rest, some of the people hunted with bows and arrows, and some people stepped on horses to go to the nearby village wine shop to sell wine, Ma Yue, Gan Ning, Peng Shi and a few young people who built the camp tent stayed in place, Peng Shi opened the conversation box, and talked to Ma Yue and Gan Ning about the situation of Zulang.
"Five days ago, I received a letter from my eldest brother and came to Jing County with two boats, and the brothers scattered everywhere to inquire about this Zulang, and on the same day I inquired about Zulang's house, but it was useless, Zulang was dismissed from his post by the state and county because he set up a card on the official road to rob the past business travel, and the house was also confiscated, but the state government did not catch him."
"The news had been leaked long before the county lieutenant arrested him, and Zu Lang fled to the mountains with his family, because he had made a fortune with the county soldiers, and he fled with hundreds of helpless county soldiers to follow him to the mountains to be the robbers." As he spoke, Peng Shi took out a piece of Baijuan from his arms, drew a map on it, pointed to a place, and said: "That Zulang suffered a great crime this time, and he didn't dare to act near Jing County, so he fled with his deployment to the vicinity of Taiping Mountain, fifty miles west of Jing County, and found a valley that was easy to defend and difficult to attack and set up camp there. The day before yesterday, I took my three brothers to take a look, there were many of them, I only dared to explore outside the valley, I was afraid that Zu Lang had recruited some bandits and robbers these days, and now I am afraid that the number of old and weak people who follow him is about to reach five hundred. ”
Peng Shi shook his head and said helplessly to Gan Ning: "It is precisely because of this that I am in a hurry to call two more boats of brothers from Danyang, counting the eldest brother who has brought nearly a hundred, but even so, it is not enough to storm Zulang Cottage." ”
"What does Ah Zhong mean?" Gan Ning frowned and asked: "The attack is unbearable, if it is in the river, even if he has five building boats, Lao Tzu will also stab them at the bottom, but on the ground, our boats can't be used, and the chariots can't attack the mountain." ”
Suddenly, Gan Ning thought of something and asked Peng Shi: "Ah Zhong, how much Shu brocade is left that we robbed the year before last?" ”
"Shu brocade?" Ah Zhong was stunned for a moment, and said casually: "That thing can't be sold, there are still a lot left, hundreds of horses, all stored on the ship." ”
A horse is four zhang, a hundred horses is four hundred zhang, the more the horse smacks his tongue, how many merchant ships did Gan Ning plunder on the river a few years ago to have so many interceptions.
"That's it." Gan Ning said with a smile: "A dozen or so brothers pretended to be a merchant from Yizhou to sell Shu brocade, they always have to work when they become bandits, and they will not bring out everyone, let's ambush them, and the caravan will lead them over......"
Before Gan Ning finished speaking, Ma Yue and Peng Shi were already clear about his plan, and they were thinking about it together.
……
Since he robbed a cart chief in the summer, the life of Zulang, the overlord of Jing County, has taken a sharp turn, and it is simply unfavorable.
First of all, the robbery was successful, but it was cut off by the seemingly docile Ma Yue, and then a few days later, the state government issued an official document to arrest himself and strictly investigate, and the finger was not good, so he hurriedly fled with his family and family.
Originally, he had saved a few hundred gold by robbing and accepting bribes over the years, and he wanted to take his family to fly away to other places to start over.
If you have money, people are still alive, it's just a waste to be revived...... In less than two years, maybe there will be one less ancestor in this Wuhui land, maybe there will be more grandfathers.
What frightened Zu Lang the most was that he couldn't run to Taiping Mountain overnight, and he planned to rest for one night and leave the next day, and when he woke up the next day, the mountains were full of people! Lao Gequan, who used to eat with him, ran over, and dragged his family with him, what is this?
Hundreds of people couldn't get out of the ferry after passing the checkpoint, so Zulang had no choice but to lead the old brothers to the old business.
If you knew today, why bother in the first place. Zu Lang regretted it in his heart, he didn't do it well with the military horse, he had to learn the thief to cut the path, but now it's good, he really wants to be a goddamn bandit.
The Gaomen Courtyard is gone, and it has become a house built of this giant wood, the brocade clothes and jade food are gone, and the little brothers under him have to make up and mix into the county seat to buy some food all day long, and hundreds of people can't be self-sufficient at all.
In the words of Xiao Wei, the most handy follower in the past, this is really eight lifetimes of blood mold!
Where did Xiao Wei go, you ask? This summer, on the official road outside Jing County, he was kicked by an angry Ma Yue and broke his spleen, and he was buried in the soil and rotted.
Isn't it eight lifetimes of blood mold?
In the early afternoon, as soon as he sent a dozen brothers to the county seat to buy some food and clothing, Zu Lang sat bored under the shade of a tree to enjoy the coolness, when he saw a former soldier running towards him covered in mud, and stammered and shouted: "Zu Sima, Sima, here are the high rollers!" At the foot of the mountain came a group of Yizhou merchants, more than 20 people, seven caravans, only a few knives, the carts were full of Shu brocade, and eight horses! ”
"Look at your little bit of talent!" Zu Lang scratched his neck in disgust, the valley woodland was too damp, and he had a rash on his body, and asked with crooked eyes: "Are you sure it's not the county official who wants us to go out of the valley?" ”
"That can't be!" The smiling face of the former military candidate was as happy as a flower, and said: "The little ones pretend to be hungry and faint homeless people on the mountain road, and there will be nothing wrong with their official words of Shu County." Where are there so many soldiers from Shudi, you say. ”
Zu Lang snorted, slapped his hands, picked up the bladed ring knife that was diagonally inserted under the tree, raised his eyelids in a posture, and laughed out loud: "Then what the hell are you doing, swinging flags and raising troops, and lighting up half a hundred brothers to go down the mountain and rob them!" ”
