In late June, Kunyang County Wei Ma Gai once again recruited more than 1,000 officers and soldiers in the county to crusade against the Yingshan Qunkou.

In fact, as early as mid-June, the eyeliner of Black Tiger Village stationed in Kunyang County spread the news of 'Kunyang recruiting thieves and soldiers again' to Black Tiger Village and Guo Da's ears.

After Guo Da did this, he immediately found Zhao Yu and discussed it.

At that time, it was around dusk, and Zhao Yu was listening to Jingnu tell the story of today's room in the house, when he heard a tuk-tuk knock on the door outside the house.

"Who?"

Zhao Yu was slightly stunned.

Immediately, I heard Guo Da's shout from outside the house: "Ah Hu, it's me, come and open the door." ”

Seeing this, Zhao Yu hurriedly got up and opened the door, and when he saw Guo Da standing alone outside the door, he was also a little surprised: "What's the matter, Brother Guo Da?" ”

"Just got a message." Guo Da said hello to the quiet girl in the house, and immediately stood outside the door and whispered to Zhao Yu: "A brother in Kunyang County sent a message that the Kunyang County Ya has once again issued a notice to recruit soldiers to fight for thieves."

"So fast?" Zhao Yu frowned slightly: "Has anyone put pressure on Kunyang County?" ”

"I don't know." Guo Da shook his head and asked, "Does it have an impact?" ”

"There must be an impact." Zhao Yu invited Guo Da into the house, frowned and said: "Our new cottage has only built a fence so far, and it is too late to build a house or something......

Guo Da thought for a moment and asked, "Then...... Why don't I contact the 'man surnamed Ma' and ask him to find a way to delay? ”

Probably because Jingnu was present, he didn't directly reveal Ma Gai's information.

But Zhao Yu could still understand, shook his head and said: "Forget it, the surname Ma has lost twice, and his current position is not stable, so in order to avoid extraneous branches, don't contact him." …… Just do it as planned. ”

"As planned? Then I can send someone to contact the other eight cottages? ”

"Hmm."

The next day, Guo Da sent people to ask for help from the other eight cottages again.

On June 26, Ma Gai led more than 1,000 officers and soldiers to the east of Yingshan and set up camp at the intersection of the two main roads, 'Rukun' and 'Xiangkun'.

At this time, Chu Jiao, Chen Zu, Wu Sheng, Zhang Feng, Sun Yi, Ma Hong, Feng Xing, Liu Mao and other other owners of the rest of the eight villages have also gathered in the Black Tiger Village with the people who came to help.

I have to say that at this time, almost all of the eight village owners have understood the reason why Yang Tong deliberately gave them a favor that day - it was to lure them to come together to prevent disasters when the officers and soldiers invaded the Black Tiger Village.

But even if they regret it, they don't dare not come to support, after all, there are examples of Xu He, Yu Rong, Yuan Xu, and Cai Cheng, even if it is Chen Zu Yizhai, which is the most powerful in addition to Black Tiger Village, he does not dare to openly refuse Black Tiger Village's request for help, so as not to be retaliated by Black Tiger Village in the future.

Around the 26th, after waiting for the owners of Bazhai to gather in the Black Tiger Village, Yang Tong set up a banquet in the big house in the village, entertained them with good wine and food, and discussed how to repel the officers and soldiers.

Also, the last time the Black Tiger Village was able to repel the officers and soldiers of Kunyang, the key was that the Black Tiger Village used bamboo strips and vines to set up various obstacles in the mountains in accordance with Zhao Yu's instructions in advance, but unfortunately this strategy can no longer be used, because Ma Gai set a fire in Yingshan that day, and burned those obstacles and even the mountains and forests, so that now the old village of the Black Tiger Village is bare, and it is basically difficult to resist the surprise attack of more than 1,000 officers and soldiers.

On the basis of this premise, Yang Tong put forward his countermeasures.

“…… I Black Tiger Village, I think you all know, it was built when I occupied a mountain village, so it is not easy to defend and difficult to attack. Last time, we set up obstacles between the mountains and forests, and divided the number of officers and soldiers to achieve the purpose of breaking them one by one, but unfortunately, last time, Ma Gai set a fire in the mountains, and burned down the forests in the mountains, as well as those obstacles and traps...... Considering that the number of the other side far exceeded ours, I thought that it would not be wise to defend the cottage, so I decided that some people would resist near the old village and delay the officers and soldiers as much as possible, and the other part would step up the construction of a new cottage on the top of the mountain, the new cottage would be more advantageous and easy to resist the officers and soldiers, and as soon as the new cottage was completed, we would move quickly. ”

The eight village owners present nodded, all thinking that Yang Tong's decision was relatively wise, including Liu Heimu, who had defected to the Black Tiger Village.

Only Chen Mo and Wang Qing frowned and didn't say a word.

After the meeting, when Guo Da and Zhao Yu were about to leave the house, Chen Mo and Wang Qing stopped them alone.

When the two of them took Guo Da and Zhao Yu to nowhere, Chen Mo frowned and said to Guo Da: "Guo Da, how long do you want to hide the matter of that Ma Gai?" ”

"Hiding what?" Guo Da pretended to be puzzled.

Seeing this, Wang Qing sneered in a low voice beside him: "Guo Da, I captured the horse cover that day, but Chen Mo and I, I thought you were going to do something with him, but I never thought that you actually let him go." …… Did Magai promise you anything? ”

"Huh."

Guo Da smiled and said calmly: "How is it possible? Didn't I explain this last time? The boss and I originally wanted to talk to him about the conditions, but before the two of us could go, the man had already killed the guards and fled......"

"You think I'll believe it?"

Wang Qing pursed his lips and said: "That day, you and Yang Tong repeatedly told me and Chen Mo to be cautious, and not to be known by the rest of the village owners, which shows that you two are uneasy and kind." If you won't tell the truth......"

Speaking of this, he squinted at Guo Da and whispered with a playful face: "If I shouted at this moment, 'I and Chen Mo captured Ma Gai alive that day, and I didn't know how Ma Gai was able to get out', do you guess that the owner of the Bazhai Village who is in the big house at this moment will ask you what is going on?" ”

"You ......"

Guo Da was shocked and angry, but he didn't dare to attack, firstly, he was not Wang Qing's opponent, and secondly, he was really afraid that Wang Qing would really do that.

"How?" Wang Qing approached Guo Da, squinted his eyes and whispered: "Either you tell me the truth, or I will make it known to everyone, you think about it." ”

Guo Da stared at Wang Qing angrily, but Wang Qing didn't take it to heart at all, deliberately put on a posture of shouting, and said with a smile: "I want to shout, I really want to shout......"

Just when the two sides were at a stalemate, Zhao Yu quietly pulled Guo Da's sleeve.

Guo Da turned his head to look at Zhao Yu, and saw that Zhao Yu nodded slightly, and his heart was angry and helpless.

He said with a calm face: "This is not the place to talk, come with me." ”

With that, he took Zhao Yu and walked towards his house.

Seeing this, Wang Qing said to Chen Mo with a smile: "I'll just say that there are ghosts in it, right?" ”

“……”

Chen Mo nodded slightly, and followed Guo Da with Wang Qing.

A moment later, Guo Da took Zhao Yu, Chen Mo, and Wang Qing to his house.

He cautiously checked the inside and outside of the house, and sent all the men outside the house away, until he repeatedly confirmed that there was no one around, then he walked to the table, looked at Chen Mo and Wang Qing sitting at the table, and said in a low voice: "Okay, I will tell you the truth, but you two must not reveal it." ”

"Don't do it." Wang Qing urged impatiently: "Hurry up!" ”

Guo Da secretly clenched his fists, endured the anger in his heart and said, "Okay...... Yes, we did negotiate with the man surnamed Ma. ”

"Really?"

Wang Qing was slightly startled, glanced at Chen Mo, and asked in a low voice: "In other words, the reason why Ma Gai was alive that day was because he agreed to your conditions and was willing to be your internal response." ”

“…… The same can be said. Guo Da hesitated for a moment, but finally admitted.

"Good guy......" Wang Qing glanced at Guo Da in disbelief, with a slightly strange smile on his face, and muttered: "You're really bold, I underestimate you......"

From the side, Chen Mo asked calmly: "Then what do you say about Ma Gai leading the officers and soldiers to attack again this time?" ”

He glanced at Zhao Yu beside him, and said in a deep voice: "You wouldn't have thought that Ma Gai would lead the troops again, what is your strategy for retreating from the enemy?" ”

"......" Guo Da frowned and said nothing.

Seeing this, Wang Qing smiled and said, "I'm going to shout...... Even if you shout it here, I promise that everyone in the village will hear it. ”

Looking at Wang Qing's rogue face, Guo Da's face was gloomy and ugly.

Seeing this, Zhao Yu whispered to Guo Da: "Brother Guo Da, since the master of Sanzhai has talked about this, let's tell the truth." …… The second village owner and the third village master are their own people after all, and they are worthy of trust. ”

"Haha, it's still wise for Zhou Hu's little brother." Wang Qing pointed at Zhao Yu with a smile, stretched out his hand and patted Zhao Yu on the shoulder.

From the side, Chen Mo glanced at Zhao Yu suspiciously, and his eyes seemed to say: There is really your share in this!

Originally, Guo Da felt that it was difficult to hide this matter anymore, and seeing that Zhao Yu also said so, he nodded helplessly and said: "Yes, we have long known that Ma Gai will lead the officers and soldiers to crusade against our Black Tiger Village again, and we have already made arrangements......

As he spoke, he briefly told Chen Mo and Wang Qing about their plan, although he didn't say it in detail, it still made Chen Mo and Wang Qing dumbfounded.

"What a borrowed knife to kill."

Chen Mo stared at Zhao Yu expressionlessly, not knowing what he wanted to express.

may not be able to withstand Chen Mo's gaze, Zhao Yu Zhengse explained: "It's not that it's a knife to kill people, it's just an external force to unify Yingshan Qunkou......"

Chen Mo stared at Zhao Yu meaningfully for a long time and did not speak again.

From the side, Wang Qing got up to help Zhao Yu's shoulder, and said with a smile: "It's Zhou Hu's little brother's idea, right?" Brother Zhou Hu is really amazing, how about it, how about considering defecting to me? I am much more powerful than Yang Tong, and I will never send someone to spy on your brothers just because you verbally bumped into me......"

"Huh? Has this spread in the village?'

Zhao Yu was slightly stunned, but he was not surprised.
