Immediately, Zhao Yu sent someone to invite Chen Mo, Wang Qing, Chu Yan, and Liu Heimu, the four leaders, plus Guo Da, Chu Jiao and Niu Heng, who were in Zhao Yu's house at the moment, but all the big leaders in the main village had already arrived.

Unlike everyone else who knew that things were powerful, Wang Qing still had the unruly posture he had on weekdays, and after he sat down, he turned his head with a smile and asked Zhao Yu: "I heard that there are 5,000 Yingchuan soldiers coming down from the mountain, this is really a big scene, the big leader summoned us, is this to discuss how to break up?" ”

Hearing this, except for Liu Heimu, everyone else frowned and showed displeasure, and Niu Heng reprimanded angrily: "Wang Qing, what nonsense are you talking about?!" ”

Zhao Yu raised his hand to stop Niu Heng's angry reprimand, and calmly asked Wang Qingdao: "Does the left commander want to break up?" Could it be that the Left Commander has a better place to go? ”

“……”

Wang Qing was stunned, his face was a little dazed, he hugged the back of his head with his hands, and sat on the chair without any sitting posture, but he didn't say anything more.

It can be seen that he just asked casually.

He's got a personality like that.

Ignoring Wang Qing's unfunny jokes, Zhao Yu glanced around at everyone present, and said: "The danger is just around the corner, I think we should not waste time and enter the main title as soon as possible......"

Everyone present nodded yes.

Seeing this, Zhao Yu continued: "There were originally more than 2,000 officers and soldiers under the mountain, but now they have increased by 5,000, and it is becoming more and more difficult to repel the opponent's attack; But even in the current situation, Ye County ordered Yang Ding to want to exterminate my Black Tiger Crowd, I can only say that he thinks too much. He glanced around at the crowd and added with a chuckle, "If we insist on escaping, can he stop us?" It's nothing more than the loss of a main village, and it's not like it hasn't happened. ”

Hearing this, Guo Da and Chu Jiao smiled bitterly, but Chen Mo, Chu Yan, and Niu Heng nodded in agreement, and the only two who did not express their position were Liu Heimu, and the other was Wang Qing with one leg crossed.

Unlike Liu Heimu's expression of paying attention to everyone and Zhao Yu, Wang Qing still looked like a hanger, he leaned on the chair, supported by only two chair legs, and after listening to Zhao Yu's words, he said with interest: "Don't talk about this or not, I just want to know if you have a strategy to retreat from the enemy?" If you have one, hurry up, if not, I think we can pack up our things and scatter the group, run in a few units, and I guess we can escape a few. ”

Looking at Wang Qing who was demolishing the stage, Niu Heng's face was even more gloomy, if it weren't for Zhao Yu raising his hand in time, he might have had a seizure.

"I don't have a strategy to retreat from the enemy, but I am generally sure of the strategy to save my life." While appeasing Niu Heng, Zhao Yu replied to Wang Qingdao with a chuckle, and then he said with a straight face: "But I need the support of everyone here." …… For the sake of today's plan, we can only overcome this difficulty by uniting as one, and if we all have different intentions, we will surely die. ”

"A life-saving strategy?"

Wang Qing glanced at Zhao Yu slantedly, and after playfully reaching out and touching his chin, he said with a straight face: "How sure are you?" ”

"Ninety percent." Zhao Yu replied calmly.

“……”

Everyone present looked at Zhao Yu in surprise, even Wang Qing put down his crossed legs, pulled the chair closer to the square table in front of him, and said with a chuckle: "I believe it, tell me your plan quickly." ”

"There's no hurry."

Zhao Yu raised his hand and said: "The top priority is to find a way to stabilize the hearts of the people in the village. …… That Yang Ding was very smart, he thought that attacking my cottage would definitely cause heavy losses, so he invited the soldiers of Yingchuan County to put pressure on us, and then sent people to shout to the mountain, mentioning forgiveness and rewards, just to hit the morale of my cottage brothers, and wait for my cottage to collapse by itself. I have already discussed with Brother Guo and Uncle Chu, and the top priority at the moment is to find a way to stabilize people's hearts. And I need the unwavering support of all of you here in this regard. ”

With that, he looked at everyone present, waiting for their answers.

At this time, Chen Mo took the lead and said, "I have no opinion. ”

As soon as the words fell, Chu Yan also shook his head and said, "I have no opinion." ”

Following the two, Liu Heimu and Wang Qing also nodded in agreement, as for Guo Da, Chu Jiao, and Niu Heng, they didn't need to express their position - after all, the first two Zhao Yu had already discussed with them, and Niu Heng, he must support Zhao Yu.

When the opinion was agreed, Zhao Yu Zhengse said: "In this case, please go to the Juyi Hall together, and I will appease the brothers in the village in the open space in front of the Juyi Hall." ”

"Okay."

A moment later, Zhao Yu put on the tiger mask and took Jingnu and Niu Heng to the wooden steps of the Juyi Hall, while Chen Mo, Guo Da and others were gathering the brothers in the village.

Glancing at the black tigers who were gradually gathering in the open space in front of the Juyi Hall, Zhao Yu sighed secretly, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart.

When he was martyred by the Zhao clan in Luyang, he and Jingnu were only eleven years old, and after five years of planning, he mastered a team that obeyed his orders and mastered a county town called Kunyang.

Even Zhao Yu is a little complacent about this, because his foundation is quite solid.

can be calculated, Zhao Yu never expected that the person who succeeded Mao Gong as the county commander of Yexian County was actually Yang Ding, a disciple of Wang Taishi, who had a rather unusual identity, and this Yang Ding, as soon as he took office, targeted him as a black tiger, not only organized a five-county alliance to fight, but even invited the county soldiers of Yingchuan County, which can be described as a vast supernatural power.

『Kunyang...... I'm afraid I'm going to give up.'"

Thinking of this, Zhao Yu involuntarily clenched his fists.

After all, he spent a lot of effort to create today's situation, and suddenly, the situation changed greatly, and he was forced to give up the foundation of Kunyang, it is not difficult to guess the nest fire in his heart at the moment.

It was this nest fire that made Zhao Yu ruthless: Since you Yang Ding don't give you a way to live, then simply stab the sky! It's a big deal for me to take people to defect to the Jingchu rebels!

Now, Zhao Yu simply broke the can.

Suddenly, a pair of hands clenched Zhao Yu's clenched fists.

It was Jing Nu, a Jing Nu who wore the same mask as him - although she didn't see Zhao Yu's expression, she could feel that her beloved was in an extremely bad mood at the moment.

"The people in the village have gathered." She reminded in a whisper.

Zhao Yu turned his head to look, and then noticed that the brothers in the cottage had already assembled in the open space in front of him.

Quietly patted the back of Jing Nu's hand with his left hand, signaling her to let go of her hand, and immediately, Zhao Yu took two steps forward and looked around at the black tigers gathered in the open space in front of him.

A rough calculation shows that there are almost more than 500 people - after removing the brothers in charge of the sentry, almost all the combat power available in the village is already here.

Maybe Chen Mo, Wang Qing and others have any considerations, when these people were lining up, the newcomers who had not been in the village for a long time were among them, and both sides were old people in the village, and it was for this reason that Zhao Yu saw Xu Bai and Wang Ping in front of the column in the middle.

At this time, Xu Bai and Wang Ping were also secretly observing Zhao Yu, speculating on what the big leader of the black tiger thief would do next.

Just when the two were guessing, Zhao Yu suddenly spoke, and he pretended to be hoarse and jokingly said, "I guess you've heard about it, right?" About half an hour ago, an officer and soldier shouted at the foot of the mountain, saying that they had received the support of 5,000 soldiers from Yingchuan County, persuaded us to surrender, and set a reward for the big leaders in the village...... Hehe, does anyone look down on those bounties? ”

Hearing this, some whispers sounded in the crowd in the open space, mainly newcomers who had not been in the village for a long time, but they were messy and couldn't hear what they were saying.

But there are also some newcomers who are unmoved, such as Xu Bai and Wang Qing, because they saw the 'Four Fierce Generals of the Black Tiger Thief'.

When Zhao Yu spoke, Chen Mo and Chu Yan stood at the foot of the steps one left and one right, looking at the people in the open space with a cold expression, and not far behind them, there was Niu Heng standing with his arms crossed, only a few steps away from Zhao Yu.

A little farther away, Wang Qing sat on the steps, shaking his legs like a child's heart.

Chen Mo, Niu Heng, Wang Qing, Chu Yan, the most courageous in Black Tiger Village is these four people, with these four people present, who would dare to make a mistake in ordinary people?

At least Xu Bai and Wang Ping didn't have the guts, they had no doubt that even if they went together, Chen Mo, who had already defeated them several times in the competition, would be able to easily pick their corpses on the spear blade, not to mention that there were many old people in the Black Tiger Village.

Just when the two of them secretly despised Zhao Yu's so-called ridicule, they suddenly heard Zhao Yu Zhengse say: "Don't be red-eyed." It is true that there are many rewards of tens of thousands of dollars or tens of thousands of dollars, but after all, they are just empty words, and the purpose of the officers and men shouting these rewards is nothing more than to divide us and cause us to have civil strife, so that they can easily break through our cottage. As for whether this promise is credible...... Hum. ”

Zhao Yu chuckled and shook his head, and then said, "If I say one thing, the brothers can guess whether the promises of the officers and soldiers are credible or not. …… I'm sure you all know the brotherhood in Kunyang, right? That's right, it's the ...... founded by my Black Tiger Crowd."

『！！』

Xu Bai and Wang Ping raised their heads suddenly, and their faces were full of shock when they looked at Zhao Yu.

Behind the Kunyang Brotherhood is the Black Tiger Thief, they have known about this for a long time, but they never expected that the leader of the Black Tiger Thief in front of them would actually announce it in public, as if they were not worried about the news leaking out at all......

『…… Arrogant! Arrogant! There's no king's way.'"

Xu Bai muttered to himself.

At the same time, on the side of the Juyi Hall house, Guo Da also frowned and muttered worriedly, "What is Ah Huti doing about this?" ”

As if he had guessed Guo Da's thoughts, Chu Jiao said casually: "It's okay to say it, now there are many people in Kunyang County who know about this matter, but they don't dare to act rashly because of public opinion...... What others know well, why hide it from their own people? ”

"That being said......"

Guo Da was still a little hesitant, but since Zhao Yu had told the story of the matter, he could only let it go.

At this time, Zhao Yu was still telling everyone: "I ordered Chen Cai to establish the Brotherhood, not because I had any thoughts about Kunyang, but because I wanted to leave us a way out, a way out where we could abandon the darkness and turn to the light...... Although the life in the cottage is leisurely, but after saying it, I can't raise my head and have no face to face my ancestors, so I ordered Chen Cai to establish a brotherhood and release goodwill to Kunyang County. Kunyang County received my kindness and negotiated with me about Zhao'an, but because of the importance of the matter, I decided to wait and see...... But who would have thought that in the situation where our Black Tigers do not hurt the people, disturb the people, and do not offend the county, there are still people who regard us as a thorn in their side, and want to exterminate our Black Tigers and flaunt their merits...... I have heard that if a man deceives me, I will step back; Deceive again, retreat again; Now that there is a cliff behind me, there is no way back, so let's fight to the death with those who deceive me! ”

may have been infected by Zhao Yu's tone, and the crowd in the open space also responded angrily.

Among them, Xu Bai and Wang Ping looked at each other when they heard it.

The reason why Zhou Hu, the leader of the black tiger thieves, created the Brotherhood was that he wanted to abandon the darkness and leave a way out for the brothers in the village?!

The two vaguely understood why when the black tiger thieves made a comeback last year, Kunyang County did not send people to encircle and suppress them.

At this time, Zhao Yu raised his hands and pressed down, signaling the excited crowd to calm down, and then he continued: "I know that many brothers are confused by the shouts of officers and soldiers, thinking that they can be alone, but under the so-called nest, there are no eggs? Once the cottage is broken by the officers and soldiers, the brothers will go their separate ways, and the officers and soldiers will no longer have any scruples. What can you do with them even if they don't keep their promises?

I, Zhou Hu, hope that all the brothers will not be tempted by the bounties of the officers and soldiers, and unswervingly follow Zhou, and Zhou will also protect the brothers, if any brothers are unfortunately captured by the officers and soldiers, I, Zhou Hu, will definitely try to save them; If a brother is unfortunately killed, Zhou will definitely take revenge tenfold, which is the loyalty of you and me, and the only way to resist the officers and soldiers.

On the other hand, if the Black Tiger Village is gone, even if some of you get a reward of tens of thousands of dollars, what can you do? A mere tens of thousands of dollars, can it be spent for a lifetime? But I, Zhou Hu, can make a promise that I will take care of the brothers for the rest of my life! As long as it is a brother who faithfully follows my Zhou Hu, I Zhou Hu will share wealth with him and never abandon him! …… As the great leader you follow, is my Zhou Hu's promise just the promise of those officers and soldiers? Remember, there is no difference between soldiers and thieves! The so-called 'pardon for crimes' of today's officers and soldiers is nothing but a hypocritical trick, because as long as we are here and as long as we are united, they will not be sure to defeat us!" That's why they resort to trickery......"

With Zhao Yu's words, the crowd in the open space began to talk again.

Seeing this, Zhao Yu raised his voice even more: "Five thousand Yingchuan County soldiers...... I know that many brothers are frightened by this crowd, but I will say that it simply doesn't matter. Previously, there were more than 2,000 officers and soldiers from five counties under the mountain, but the brothers did not panic, why? Does anyone believe that five or six hundred of us can defeat more than 2,000 people? In fact, I am not sure, the only thing we can do is to defend with the help of the mountain, but if the other side forces the mountain at the cost of casualties, then we can only withdraw in disgrace and wait for the opportunity to make a comeback. After all, I have always believed that the lives of the brothers are far more important than a cottage...... We can't win with 2,000 officers and soldiers, so what if we add 5,000 Yingchuan soldiers? Whether it is 2,000 officers and soldiers or 5,000 more soldiers, our tactics will not change, and we will defend if we can prevent it, and withdraw if we can't prevent it, in other words, there is not much difference between the two. ”

Hearing this, the chatter of the crowd in the open space rose and fell.

Most people feel that Zhao Yu's explanation is wrong, but where is wrong, they can't say why, and they feel that what Zhao Yu said is also reasonable: 2,000 officers and soldiers can't beat it, and there are 5,000 more county soldiers, what's the difference? Horizontal and vertical are tactics that can't be beaten and withdrawn.

Thinking like this, some people gradually relaxed, and some even laughed heartlessly, and the originally tense and dignified atmosphere was also eased.

Seeing this scene, Xu Bai and Wang Ping were simply stunned.

The two of them couldn't believe that this Zhou Hu had successfully eased the solemn atmosphere with a crooked reasoning that didn't feel right no matter how he thought about it, and made everyone present relax a little.

However, what was wrong, Xu Bai and Wang Ping couldn't say it for a while.

At this time, Zhao Yu glanced around at everyone present, and continued: "Of course, I also know that a few words may not make some people feel at ease, or rather, these people lack trust in me Zhou Hu, although I don't say it, but I have made up my mind to flee, and even surrender the officers and soldiers, I don't blame them, after all, everyone has their own aspirations, here I only hope that those brothers who want to leave will quietly go down the mountain and leave after nightfall tonight, and I will not send someone to stop them." However, if anyone turns against each other when he leaves, and uses the heads of his old brothers to curry favor with officers and soldiers in exchange for bounties, I, Zhou Hu, swear hereby that I will kill this fang and eat it alive in this life! …… I, Zhou Hu, do not die so easily, and the brothers who follow me do not die so easily, so I advise those who are about to leave not to do something that misleads others and themselves, lest they regret it in the future. …… Don't be preemptive! ”

After a pause, Zhao Yu said again: "If he is destined to meet the brothers who left today, for the sake of the old brothers, I, Zhou Hu, may also invite them to drink a bowl of wine, but that's all, from now on, each has a destiny!" …… Words are all here, love is here. ”

With that, he called softly: "Grand Commander." ”

Chen Mo understood, and after nodding, he clapped his hands and said, "Okay, let's disperse." And the words of the great chief shall be taken to heart, and the brethren who wish to leave shall depart on their own after nightfall this day, and do not hurt the old brethren because of the bounty, lest they mislead others and themselves; Brothers who do not intend to leave, business as usual. ”

Looking at the back of Chen Mo leaving, the gathered Black Tigers dispersed one after another.

At this time, Zhao Yu had returned to his house and sent someone to summon Wang Qing and Chu Yan.

After a while, when Wang Qing and Chu Yan came to the house, Zhao Yu Zhengse said: "Let's temporarily stabilize the hearts of the people in the village, but this is not enough to retreat from the enemy, I have something for the two of you to do, I don't know if you two dare to dare?" ”

"Tell me about it." Wang Qing said casually

I saw that Zhao Yu's face was straight, and he lowered his voice and said: "I want you two to lead your henchmen and brothers to go straight to Runan and Xiangcheng counties, take advantage of their county soldiers, mix into the city, kidnap the county order, and burn the county government!" ”

Speaking of this, he glanced at the two people who were stunned, and said in a deep voice: "Since you can't dodge horizontally and vertically, then you will simply make a big fuss and make a fuss out of control!" …… Do you dare?! ”

“……”

Rao is Wang Qing and Chu Yan were also shocked by Zhao Yu's words for a while.

Immediately, different degrees of interest appeared in the eyes of the two.
