In all fairness, if Zhao Yu were to sit in Yang Tong's seat now, he would definitely not move Chen Zu.

Because in Zhao Yu's opinion, Chen Zu is a very rational person.

Among the fourteen cottage owners in the eastern part of Yingshan, Zhao Yu is the most optimistic about Chen Zu and Chu Jiao.

What the? Yang Tong?

I'm sorry, Zhao Yu's evaluation of Yang Tong in his heart is far inferior to that of Chen Zu and Chu Jiao.

Chu Jiao's special thing is that he is very good at hiding clumsy, in fact, this person is far from being as silly as he appears, but he can use a simple smile to make people ignore him.

But Chen Zu is different, Chen Zu has been sharp from the beginning.

When Yang Tong listened to Zhao Yu's suggestion and lured the remaining thirteen cottage alliances with the 'benefits of the caravan' under the mountain, it was Chen Zu who first supported Yang Tong, and Chen Zu also intended to increase his share with Yang Tong - increasing Yang Tong's share, it is understandable that he was showing favor to Yang Tong, and by the way, increasing his own share, which was obviously for the benefit of his own cottage.

But at that time, Yang Tong listened to Zhao Yu's suggestion and wanted to win over Liu Heimu and the other twelve cottages in order to achieve the goal of annexation in the future, so he did not accept Chen Zu's proposal.

Two months ago, Yang Tong quickly took the opportunity to annex the remaining seven cottages with the help of Ma Gai's external force, and even tested Chen Zu's views on the 'merger into the Black Tiger Village' by singing and harmonizing with Liu Heimu, Chen Zu already felt threatened at that time, he not only rejected Yang Tong head-on, but also mocked Yang Tong and Guo Da in public for taking the opportunity to annex the remaining seven cottages - in fact, the other seven village owners have also realized this, but they have all lost their respective cottages, plus Yang Tong did promise them all kinds of favors, Therefore, he did not take Chen Zu's stubble.

But even so, Chen Zu still stayed in the Black Tiger Village at that time, and led his brothers to help the Black Tiger Village jointly resist the Kunyang officers and soldiers for more than two months, until the day before yesterday, after Ma Gai withdrew his troops, Chen Zu led his people to leave the main village of the Black Tiger Village and return to his own cottage.

Obviously, he was very dissatisfied with Yang Tong, Guo Da and others, and even guessed that Yang Tong might attack him in the future, but Chen Zu still helped Black Tiger Village repel the Kunyang officers and soldiers, what does this mean?

This shows that Chen Zu is very aware of the stakes, and knows very well that once the Black Tiger Village falls, the officers and soldiers of Kunyang will inevitably attack his cottage, and at the same time, it also proves that Chen Zu is very proud, even if he has all kinds of dissatisfaction with Yang Tong, Guo Da and others, he does not disdain to take the opportunity to fall into the ground.

It is precisely because of this that if Zhao Yu is in power in Black Tiger Village now, he can completely ignore Chen Zu, because although Chen Zu is hostile to Black Tiger Village, he will not sit idly by and watch Black Tiger Village be exterminated by Kunyang officers and soldiers, in other words, he can still be useful to Chen Zu in the future.

But it's a pity that Black Tiger Village is not Zhao Yu in power now, but Yang Tong, a ruthless, wise and mediocre, but ambitious guy who wants to become the lord of Yingshan, not to mention that Chen Zu openly mocked Yang Tong before leaving two days ago, saying that 'I'm afraid that someone will cut off his head inexplicably while drinking wine', even if Chen Zu doesn't publicly mock, Yang Tong still starts with Chen Zu.

Because Yang Tong wants to become a real 'Tiger of Yingshan'!

And this is exactly what Zhao Yu wants.

"When does the master of Dazhai plan to do something to Chen Zu?" Zhao Yu asked Guo Dadao.

"The sooner the better."

Guo Da frowned and said, "This time, the man surnamed Ma kept his position and reputation, but that damn guy actually connived at his subordinates to find our Xinzhai ......"

I have to say that two months ago, Ma Gai sent Shi Yuan, Yang Dang and others to find their new village in Black Tiger Village, which was completely unplanned 'accident', because according to the agreement between each other, Ma Gai should collect troops and return to the county after laying down the old village of Black Tiger Village, go back to his hometown, and report to the county seat that Black Tiger Village has been wiped out and Yu Kou has escaped.

In this way, Kunyang County will have at least a period of relaxation.

But Ma Gai violated the agreement, he did not immediately withdraw his troops after he defeated the old village of Heihu Village, but immediately sent people to pursue, and found the newly built main village of Black Tiger Village, so that this main village was exposed several months in advance.

And what will be the result of the main village being exposed in advance?

Obviously, they will be surrounded and suppressed by Kunyang County next year, and even Kunyang may prepare in advance for the next year's crusade against Black Tiger Village this winter.

Considering that next year, Kunyang County will probably attack the Black Tiger Village in a big way after spring ploughing, Yang Tong hopes to annex Chen Zu and his gang before that.

That's right, it stands to reason that the rational approach should be to ease relations with Chen Zu so that he can get Chen Zu's help when Kunyang County comes to attack, but Yang Tong's idea is the opposite.

It can be seen that Yang Tong dreamed of unifying the eastern part of Yingshan, and even he may have been thinking about how to extend his power to Luyang, Liangxian and other places in the west of Yingshan.

I have to say that Zhao Yu's evaluation of his 'profit and wisdom is really appropriate'.

But after all, Yang Tong has not completely fainted, it seems that he also understands that it is immoral to attack Chen Zu at this time, after all, Chen Zu has just helped him Black Tiger Village to resist the Kunyang officers and soldiers, and he Yang Tong turned his head to fight the other party, which is obviously against morality.

And this is the reason why Guo Da came to discuss with Zhao Yu today: "...... But we don't have a name, and we act rashly, not only is it morally untenable, but I'm afraid that Chu Jiao, Zhang Feng and others in the village will also be dissatisfied, so the boss asked me to discuss with you to see if Ah Hu can think of an idea, so that we can justifiably do it to Chen Zu. ”

"Are we, the bandits, also justifiable?" Zhao Yu teased with a smile.

If someone else said this, Guo Daduo would probably be unhappy in his heart, but because it was Zhao Yu who said it, he didn't care, and joked with a smile: "There are more and more people in the village, there are no rules, and there is no square circle, so it's better to pay attention to it." …… How's it going, Hu, do you have an idea? ”

Zhao Yu pretended to think about it and said, "You can try this." …… At the beginning, in order to lure the cottages, didn't we give the benefits of the caravan under the mountain to the cottages? Now that Qizhai has been merged into my Black Tiger Village, the distribution of the benefits of this caravan should also be changed. ”

"What do you mean...... Kick Chen Zu out? ”

Guo Da was slightly stunned when he heard this, but immediately, his eyes lit up, and he said happily: "I understand!" ”

In an instant, he understood Zhao Yu's strategy:

He Black Tiger Village kicked Chen Zu out of the distribution of 'caravan profits', Chen Zu must be dissatisfied with this, and the result of dissatisfaction must be to start anew, regardless of the agreement between Black Tiger Village and the past caravans, as usual, robbed the road connecting Runan and Kunyang under his mountain, and looted the past caravans, and in this way, the Black Tiger Village and Chen Zu had a conflict of interest.

As the saying goes, cutting off people's wealth is like killing parents, Chen Zu robbed the caravan on the official road in Runan, and the Black Tiger Village, which originally took the caravan on the two roads of 'Rukun' and 'Xiangkun', will definitely suffer losses, so the Black Tiger Village can naturally justifiably blame Chen Zu.

I have to say that this Guo Da is not outstanding in wisdom, but when someone mentions it, the reaction is still very fast.

But this time, he clearly guessed wrong.

As if guessing Guo Da's thoughts, Zhao Yu shook his head and said: "It's not that Chen Zu is directly kicked out, it's so easy to fall into the truth, so that people can see through at a glance that we are deliberately forcing Chen Zu to break the previous agreement." Therefore, we can't kick Chen Zu out, and still verbally divide him with two points of profit, but in fact, we can use various excuses to swallow his two points of profit, for example, my Black Tiger Village has just been encircled and suppressed by Kunyang officers and soldiers, and even the old village has been burned down for more than two months, and now we have to feed hundreds of people in the village, and we have to rebuild the old village, can we owe Chen Zu the two points of profit first? If Chen Zu refused, he would lose his morality, and I believe that Chu Jiao, Zhang Feng and others would also be dissatisfied with him; If Chen Zu agrees, then it will be consumed, anyway, the benefits of the caravans on the two roads of 'Rukun' and 'Xiangkun' will all belong to us, and Chen Zu will not get half of it...... And during this period, the people under Chen Zu must be dissatisfied, once they attack the caravan on the 'Rukun' road, Brother Guo Da will come forward to question them, this is the safest. ”

"I see."

Guo Da showed a slight malicious smile on his face, and joked with a smile: "Your trick is really bad, Ah Hu." ”

Zhao Yu smiled slightly, and then put the mountain map he drew in front of Guo Da, and said: "By the way, Brother Guo Da, there is something about our village defense, I drew this map, you can take a look." ”

Guo Da carefully looked at the mountain map, pointed to one of the circles in confusion and asked, "What are these circles?" ”

"It's a village."

Zhao Yu explained: "Our newly built main village, the location is good, from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain, is the intersection of Rukun and Xiangkun roads, and it is far easier to defend than the original old village, but it is still a lonely village, like these two months, the officers and soldiers under Ma Gai are surrounded from the north, east and south, we only have the west to enter and exit, but what is the west? The west is still a mountain. This time, the officers and soldiers only surrounded it for two months, and we can barely support it by relying on the stored grain and the spring water in the mountains, but what if the officers and soldiers surround it for a year and a half next time? Therefore, we want to build a sub-village, and form a corner of each other, and in the future, the officers and soldiers will surround the main village, and the people who will divide the village will sneak attack their backs; If the officers and soldiers score the village, the main village will go to the sneak attack, in short, so that the officers and soldiers are difficult to take care of, and they cannot surround the cottage like this time. ”

"Hmm."

Guo Da nodded slightly, and then pointed to the thick and slashed lines on the mountain map and asked, "What are these lines?" ”

"The thick line represents the road, since we want to set up a village, it is natural to build a side road in the mountain, just like the official road between counties, as for these diagonal lines, it is a wall, its function is like the original bamboo and vine to make obstacles, the only difference is that they are not afraid of fire."

Guo Da's eyes widened in surprise when he heard this, because those diagonal lines representing the wall were simply dense in this mountain map, especially the slopes on the south, east, and north sides of the main village, as if Zhao Yu was preparing to build the hill where their main village was located into an impregnable fortress.

"This ...... That's an exaggeration, isn't it? ”

Guo Da muttered in disbelief.

Zhao Yu smiled and said: "This is the foundation of our life." ”

"Yes."

Guo Dashen nodded approvingly.
