The first update, seeking pink in the middle of the month.

……

sent Mu Jiaying to Wanjia Village to inquire about the news, and everyone did not stop at the Luonu Temple, but went down the mountain to the city. Because there was something in their hearts, no one of them would rest, except for eating, but sitting together to discuss the affairs of the Japanese invaders.

If the matter of Wanjia Village is not an independent incident, and there are really Japanese pirates who covet Ren An, then what should be done.

"Naturally, it's a fight, these would-be robbers are too much of a thing. If you dare to come to us, let them have no return. Mukhon said.

Everyone nodded. On this matter, the opinions of the people are quite unanimous. However, fighting a war is not child's play, and how to fight it still needs to be carefully discussed.

It was already night, and everyone still refused to rest, while discussing, waiting for news from Mu Jiaying.

As soon as the sky was bright, a small servant outside ran in to report that Mu Jiaying was back.

"Quick, let him in." Mu Hong said, while owing a debt, this simple action revealed his mood at the moment.

Mu Jiaying soon came in from outside, he didn't have time to wash and change clothes, he was full of flattery, and there was still a trace of excitement in the solemn expression on his face.

Ji Xiaotang immediately knew that Mu Jiaying had inquired about the news.

In the previous life, the incident of Wanjia Village still happened.

Everyone was busy asking Mu Jiaying, but Mu Jiaying didn't even have time to drink his saliva, so he told all the news he had inquired about.

The news that Ji Xiaotang heard was indeed true.

Many people in Wanjia Village didn't know that it was a ronin, and thought it was from a remote place. So the accent is a little strange. But there are also some knowledgeable people in Wanjia Village, and they suspect that the person is a ronin from the East.

"The two who went to the Luonu Temple to make incense are obviously knowledgeable. Thanks to this, too. If they don't say the word ronin, I'm afraid that Xiaotang won't tell us about this as a big deal. Qi Younian said.

Everyone nodded.

Ji Xiaotang also nodded.

Now that the ronin's identity is recognized, many of his actions seem suspicious.

According to Mu Jiaying's inquiries to the people in the village, the ronin was obviously checking the terrain of Wanjia Village and the surrounding area, especially the few wealthy people in the village who stayed the longest time.

This is the so-called stepping on the plate in banditry.

When Mu Jiaying found out where the ronin came from and whereabouts, he could already conclude that the ronin must be a group of spies sent by the Ronin. Listen to the path. Good for plundering.

"Well, you're the first to do it." Mu Hong was overjoyed, so he got up and patted Mu Jiaying's shoulder and said.

"Fortunately, I didn't disgrace my life." Mu Jiaying galloped all day and night. None of them rested, but they didn't show signs of fatigue. Compared with his father and younger brother, Mu Jiaying is the one with the most ink in the Mu family's stomach, and his temperament is more stable.

This is also the time when Mu Hong went outside the city to pick up Ji Xiaotang. Shen deliberately asked Mu Jiaying to go with him. There is Mu Jiaying by Mu Hong's side to advise at any time. Mu Hong's fiery temper can be subdued a lot.

It's a trivial thing in life, and this father and son are also excellent partners when they run errands, and they cooperate quite tacitly.

In the face of such a big event, everyone didn't talk nonsense, Qi Younian immediately took out the map from his sleeve and spread it on the table.

And they all came forward and talked about the map.

Ji Xiaotang also didn't sleep all night, so he was busy bringing another lamp to the table at this time. So that everyone can see more clearly.

Qi Younian marked the location of Wanjia Village on the map, as well as the most likely hiding place for the Japanese Kou.

"How do you fight this? It is necessary to mobilize the water army. Our naval army is not good. Mu Hong frowned.

The Japanese sent men to explore the way, but a large number of men and horses did not go ashore, but hid at sea. Ren'an's naval army is insufficient, and it takes time to transfer troops from elsewhere.

The Japanese explorers had already returned, and could come ashore at any time to plunder.

It is simply too late to mobilize a naval army.

"You can do without a water army." Ji Xiaotang said, "As long as we can judge the target of the Japanese Kou." ”

Since the Japanese sent spies, they refused to be able to find the ronin only in Wanjia Village. However, the reality is urgent, and sending people to investigate everywhere will delay the opportunity.

The goal of the Wako and the route of the march are therefore difficult to determine. The only thing that can be determined is that Wanjia Village must be one of their goals.

"Yes, it's Wanjia Village." Ji Xiaotang nodded, stretched out his finger, and circled a general range on the map, which was exactly what she knew, where the six villages and towns that were plundered by the Japanese were located, "Although I know that Ren An is not prepared, the first time they come, they must not dare to go too deep, the approximate range, that is, here." ”

Qi Younian looked at the location that Ji Xiaotang pointed to on the map, but it coincided with his judgment. Qi Younian couldn't help but raise his head and glanced at Ji Xiaotang deeply.

Ji Xiaotang and Qi Younian looked at each other, and they found the praise in Qi Younian's eyes.

"Wanjia Village will be their first stop, and it will also be their focus this time." Ji Xiaotang quickly retracted his gaze and pointed to the place where Wanjia Village was located on the map, "Ren'an's coastal generation is the richest in Wanjia Village. The pirates sent out eyeliner and should have inquired about this. ”

"And the Japanese are the most greedy, and they will be repaid. Their people have suffered losses in Wanjia Village, and they will definitely think of doubling their revenge and coming back. ”

Mu Hong listened to Ji Xiaotang's words and nodded.

"Hmm. Xiaotang has a point. Wanjia Village is also convenient to go to the sea. It is highly likely that they will arrive in Wanjia Village first. Mukhon said.

"Wanjia Village will not only be the first stop for the Japanese Kou, but also their temporary stronghold." Qi Younian looked at the map, "Wanjia Village is blessed with unique terrain, easy to defend and difficult to attack. As long as the Japanese invaders occupy Wanjia Village, and then plunder the surrounding areas, it is advisable to advance and retreat. If there are people among the Japanese who can use troops, they will definitely capture Wanjia Village first. ”

The Japanese did capture Wanjia Village first, and finally withdrew from Wanjia Village to the sea, and when they left, they burned the entire Wanjia Village.

This fire not only left the chickens and dogs burned in Wanjia Village. There was also a great deal of delay in the pace of the pursuers.

Qi Younian kept the map around him all day long, not for show, he really had a clear grasp of Ren An's terrain. I'm only afraid of Qi Younian's research. It's not just Ren'an's terrain.

"Then what's the matter, let's kill these widows in Ren An!" Muhonn rubbed his hands together.

Mu Jiaying and Mu Jiahao also showed excitement on their faces.

"Father, you must take us with you this time." Both brothers said.

"Needless to say!" Mukhon laughed.

"Uncle Mu, how many soldiers and horses can you mobilize?" Qi Younian asked suddenly.

"Oh......" Mu Hong was about to answer, but suddenly he was stunned, "Ayou, you are intending." Don't report it to the thousand households? ”

"Uncle Mu, just based on the information we have so far, we will report it to the Lord of Qianhu to know. The personality of a thousand households seeking stability. Will he agree to summon the army of the guards? Qi Younian said.

"Oh, this, it's hard to say." Mu Hong rubbed his hands, and also felt that this question was tricky.

It's not a thousand households that can't be reported to Ren An. But then I have to convince a thousand households. Waiting for thousands of households to send troops, I am afraid that the fighter plane will be delayed. It is also very likely that Chihu will consult his superiors before agreeing to send troops.

Ji Xiaotang knew that Qi Younian's worries were the key, today was the third day of the first month of May, and on the fifth day of the first month of May, the would-be robbers would go ashore to plunder. During this period, there is really no time to delay.

"Ayo already has an idea?" Ji Xiaotang asked Qi Younian.

"Well, I have an idea. I have to ask Uncle Mu to refer to it together. Qi Younian said, at this time, his attitude was still very humble. He and Mu Hong are now both deputy thousand households. He has always been very respectful of Muhon.

"Ayou, you say." Mukhon said immediately.

"In the name of military training, we will take out all the men and horses we can bring." Qi Younian said, "First, it is the fastest, and second, it can also hide people's eyes." ”

Who knows if there are other spies in Ren'an, if they know that the guard has sent troops to Wanjia Village, they will definitely be vigilant.

"Okay, just follow Ayou." Although Mu Hong himself is not good at strategy, but someone has come up with a good idea, but he is knowledgeable.

"One hundred and twelve of my brothers can be taken away." Mu Jiaying said first.

"I am good brothers with Meng Baihu, and our one hundred and twelve brothers will also go together." Mu Jiahao immediately followed.

There are 1,000 households in the Ren Security Station, and there are 1,120 soldiers below.

It is not known how many troops the Japanese have at this time, so they naturally have to bring as many soldiers as possible to have a better chance of victory.

"Jiaying's hundred, plus Meng Baihu's hundred, this is all under my command, and I can also bring the one hundred brothers of Ding Baihu." Mu Hong did the math and said.

That's three hundred and thirty-six.

"I can bring two hundred troops." Qi Younian said, "No matter how many people there are, I'm afraid that in the Thousand Households, there will be more twists and turns." ”

The two of them combined, what they want to take away is half of the troops of Ren Anwei.

If it weren't noticeable, and the soldiers were fast, this was already the most troops they could take away.

"That's all." Mu Hong said, "It doesn't matter how many people he has, as long as he is on land, only give me a hundred brothers, and I can beat those Japanese robbers!" ”

"I've done the math, these troops should be enough." Qi Younian said, "This time, we have to outwit it." ”

Qi Younian's meaning was to go to Wanjia Village first, find a favorable terrain to ambush, and catch the Japanese by surprise.

"This is the most likely place for the Japanese to enter the village, and this is the best place to ambush." Qi Younian pointed somewhere on the map and said.

If you want to fight an ambush, you can also set up traps and other mechanisms, even if you have fewer troops, you will not suffer.

Mu Hong nodded naturally.

"Great goodness!"

"The time, the place, the people, we have all taken possession, the Japanese are just a group of clowns jumping off the beam, and they are not afraid!" Qi Younian rolled up the map and put it in his sleeve and said with a smile.

The boy didn't say more bold words like Mu Hong, but his demeanor was full of confidence, and he was bound to win.

The sky has already brightened, and this night, the men of the Mu family have not slept all night, and the women of the Mu family have not rested either.

Neither Shen nor Zhang inquired carefully about how the men discussed, but they knew that the men were going to fight the Japanese invaders. The Shen family not only asked the kitchen to prepare everyone's meals, but also together with the Zhang family, personally brought the people they could gather to prepare as much dry food as possible for the big guys.

Ji Xiaotang saw the dry food that Shen had brought in, and then looked at Shen and Zhang's red eyes because they stayed up late, and his heart was moved.

It is not without reason that Mu Hong respects the Shen family.

Seeing that his wife and daughter-in-law didn't use him to speak, they prepared a lot of dry food, and Mu Hong only said a good word.

Yiqiē is also in this good word.

Mu Hong, father and son, and Qi Younian hurriedly had breakfast, and then they all stopped and set off.

Ji Xiaotang was sent to the door.

"I've heard my father say that the widow is cunning, although he is unexpected. Approaching the Dragon Boat Festival, they know the customs of our people, and they are afraid that they will not let go of this opportunity. Ji Xiaotang was reminding Mu Hong and Qi Younian that it was very likely that the would-be would-be wouldn't come ashore to loot on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival.

Mu Hong and Qi Younian both nodded.

Obviously, Qi Younian also expected this, so he would rather take the risk of not reporting to his boss, and also take the soldiers to Wanjia Village as much as possible.

After sending Mu Hong's father and son and Qi Younian away, Ji Xiaotang returned to the house and found that Master Ji San was gone.

"Where did my uncle go?" Ji Xiaotang caught the little girl and asked, at this moment she already had a very bad premonition in her heart.

I know a bitter face. He was originally a confidant of Master Ji San, and Master Ji San took him with him wherever he went. It's a pity that he has had a stomach upset in the past two days, and he has a dish, so he was left behind at this time to face Ji Xiaotang's anger.

"Three girls, it's not a trivial matter." Zhi knelt on the ground, weakly took out a letter from his arms and gave it to Ji Xiaotang. "The third master left it for the girl, saying that the girl would understand it when she saw it. The third master also said, let the girl rest assured. ”

Ji Xiaotang snatched the letter over.

The envelope was not sealed, and the big characters on it, "Xiaotang personally opened", were the handwriting of Master Ji San.

Ji Xiaotang tore the envelope and took out the letter to read.

Master Ji San's letter was also very simple, and he was in a hurry, so he told Ji Xiaotang that he followed Mu Hong and Qi Younian to Wanjia Village. It is said that it is a timely meeting, and it is really impossible to miss it. Master Ji San asked Ji Xiaotang not to chase him, and he couldn't catch up, because Master Ji San was already riding a fast horse and waiting for the soldiers of the guard on the road to Wanjia Village first.

"Girl, the third master has brought Master Li by his side, and Master Li will definitely be able to protect the safety of the third master." I know the weak and weak authenticity.

Master Ji San took Master Li with him, this is the only news that can comfort Ji Xiaotang at this moment.

"Girl," Xiu'er was beside Ji Xiaotang, and when she saw that Ji Xiaotang was holding the letter and didn't speak, she said softly, meaning to ask Ji Xiaotang if he wanted to send someone to chase after Ji San, and who to send.

Master Ji San took away all the people around him who could fight, and if Ji Xiaotang wanted to send someone to chase him, he had to find someone from the Mu family.

Ji Xiaotang was frowning, but when he heard Xiu'er ask, he stretched his brows.

She slowly tucked the letter into her sleeve.

"What to chase, not to chase." Ji Xiaotang said dryly.

Zhizhi and Xiu'er were all thought to be Ji Xiaotang's angry remarks, but looking at Ji Xiaotang's expression, it was not like that.

The corners of Ji Xiaotang's mouth were slightly upturned, and his beautiful eyes flashed with a strange look. (To be continued......)
