Jiuji Mountain Dazhai was originally located on the Hutou Peak in the north, located between the mountains, the mountain is steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack.

After Qin Chuan led thirty-eight of his men out of the encirclement, Li Biaofeng and Tongtian Zhu swept away the money and grain in the cottage, and then burned down the village.

Now, the houses with walls on the mountain have been re-roofed with thatch, and dozens of grass huts and ground nests have been erected around them, but there is no one inside, according to Zhao Wu, who came to the sentry before, there were hundreds of rogues who settled here before, and before Qin Chuan led the army to arrive, those rogues had already fled.

When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, Luo Daniu, Lao Huang, Bobcat and more than a dozen old bandits from Jiuji Mountain who came with the army couldn't wait to ride their horses up the mountain.

Qin Chuan asked Emperor Guan to follow behind, and he also led the red-clothed attendants to chase after him.

Near a charred wooden gate on the slope of the mountain, he saw Luo Daniu and the others holding knives and waving them constantly, splitting the wild grass on the ground, revealing a white skeleton inside.

"Big boss, this is Huang Sanjiao's head, I still remember that he had an arrow in his left eye when he died."

Luo Da Niu was holding a skull and said to Qin Chuan with a somewhat excited expression.

In the left eye of the skull, an arrow was inserted into the bone behind the eye socket.

Qin Chuan's mood was a little heavy, he took the skull and looked at it carefully, then held the arrow and pulled it out hard.

The arrow was pulled out, but two broken bones were brought out.

"Huang Sanjiao, your baby has to remember, don't have such big eyes in the next life, it's easy to eat arrows."

Lao Huang muttered as he picked up the two broken bones, smeared some saliva, and then carefully glued them back.

"Da Niu, send someone to Hongdong to buy a clay pot, how much can be bought, and bury these brothers well."

"Okay."

Qin Chuan took off the red cloak behind him, spread it on the ground, put the skull on it, and then squatted down and picked up the bones of the other parts of Huang Sanjiao.

Others also took off their clothes to gather the remains.

This place is the gate of the stockade, and the remains are everywhere along the way to the top of the mountain, as well as around a house that has been burned to ruins, and the path behind the mountain.

The clothes on the corpses were basically stripped off, and Luo Da Niu and Lao Huang couldn't tell whether the skeleton belonged to their brother and the one was the enemy, so they could only rely on memory to throw away the enemy's bones, and the others that couldn't be distinguished were all converged.

It is regarded as taking advantage of the enemy.

Although Qin Chuan had not yet come to this world before this great battle, he admired these Jiujishan brothers who died in battle, especially those who desperately covered his predecessor from the back mountain path to fight his way out of the encirclement.

It can be said that without these people, there would be no person who I am today.

On the same day, Emperor Guan's army camped on the site of the original Jiuji Mountain Village, Qin Chuan let people kill ten sheep, and after worshipping hundreds of bones placed in the ruins, they set up a cauldron to cook mutton.

At night, Emperor Guan's troops lit bonfires and sat around in piles, eating mutton while listening to Luo Daniu, Lao Huang and others tell the story of the battle.

As the only captive in the team, Liu Guoneng was lucky to be given a bowl of dry rice and a bowl of broth, and he was able to sit next to him and listen to stories, and from time to time he made straightforward and meaty praises.

Qin Chuan didn't say much, just listened quietly.

Inadvertently, he found Li Dingguo, who was holding a booklet not far away, and after reading with the help of the firelight, he picked up the wine bag and pipe he carried with him and walked towards Li Dingguo.

In the past six months, he has rarely spoken to Li Dingguo, and after training him a few words in the martial arts arena last time, he has not spoken again.

After noticing that someone had walked to his side, Li Dingguo raised his head and nodded with a slightly embarrassed expression.

"Let's take two sips."

Qin Chuan sat down beside him and handed over the wine bag in his hand.

Li Dingguo was not polite, took the wine bag and sniffed it, then raised his head and took a sip, and his still immature face wrinkled instantly.

Qin Chuan smiled, filled the pipe with tobacco, took a piece of firewood and lit it, and took a few puffs before inhaling the thick smoke.

"In a few days, we will go south, and there is a good chance that we will meet your father-in-law, if he tells you to go back, will you go back?"

"Will you let me go?"

"Hey, hey, I'm not a good person."

"Isn't that the end of it?"

"Your father-in-law really can't do a big thing, and what he did is not a good thing for the common people in the world, but he just pulled the flag of the righteous army."

"Look at those rogues, all day long only thinking about robbing the grain of the big families, and if they can't rob the big families, they will rob the bitter haha, and they also take food and knives to force those who are about to starve to death to sell their lives, and rob them for a few more years, and this place will be thousands of miles of red land."

"Of course, if they don't rob, they will starve to death, but they will only rob, and if they don't understand it, the court will not change because of their rebellion, and it will only be the common people who are unlucky to rob it like this."

"The only way is to occupy a piece of land, establish a sound military and political system, and use the system to govern the locality, so that everyone has food to eat and land to plant, and then slowly expand this territory, so that everyone in the entire land of China has food to eat and everyone has land to plant."

"You are a genius made in heaven, you should not work for a person who only thinks of snatching glory and wealth with a knife, but also for the benefit of the common people and fame in history."

"After we go south in a few days, there will be a lot of battles to be fought, and there will be chaos on the battlefield, if you want to take advantage of the chaos to escape, I can't stand you, I just hope that before you run, you can think more about what I said today."

As he spoke, Qin Chuan reached out to take the wine bag.

Li Dingguo raised his head and took a sip again, and then returned the wine bag to him with a frown.

Qin Chuan patted him on the shoulder again, then stood up and walked away.

……

In the afternoon of the next day, the people who went to Hongdong to buy clay pots did not come back, but ushered in a group of uninvited guests.

Yan Siyin and Zhang Yingchang came.

When Qin Chuan took the red-clothed attendant and Luo Daniu and others down the mountain, the two were waiting at the foot of the mountain.

"Congratulations to General Qin for his great achievements, the first battle of Mianshan General Qin shocked Jinzhong, resounding in all directions."

From afar, Yan Siyin clasped his fists with both hands and said loudly in a spy voice.

After Qin Chuan approached, he smiled and saluted back: "Gonggong Yan, Lord Zhang, I have admired the two great names for a long time, and when I see them today, I am fortunate to have three lives." ”

"General Qin is polite."

"What are you doing here?"

"General Qin, this prison army is here to escort the prisoners and transport the heads, I heard that General Qin Mianshan captured the leader Liu Guoneng in the first battle, and also captured more than 1,000 heads, this prison army has written a good news for the general, and also asked the general to transfer the heads of those prisoners to the prison army, you can send them to the Beijing division with the good news, play the immortal feats of the general, when the time, the emperor will be happy in the dragon court, and the general's high-ranking officials are just around the corner."

"Hahahaha......"

Qin Chuan raised his head and laughed, and said, "Thank you father-in-law for your kindness, Qin will present the head to Lord Futai, and you won't bother your father-in-law." ”

As soon as he heard this, Yan Siyin's brows furrowed: "General Qin, our family is to aid the Inner Chinese Army, and Master Zhang is the chief soldier of Shanxi, you should have been under the command of this supervising army and Lord Zhang, and the captured prisoners and heads should have been transferred to Shangguan, why did you transfer Lord Futai without authorization?" ”

"Ahem."

Qin Chuan cleared his throat and said with a smile: "Because, I can't trust the two of you." ”

"You!"

Yan Siyin was furious.

"Qin Chuan, you rushed into Shangguan, what a boldness!"

Zhang Yingchang was also furious, pointing at Qin Chuan with one hand and scolding.

Qin Chuan didn't respond, only looked at the two of them with a smile.

Luo Daniu behind him pulled out his long knife with a "bang", and slapped his horse a few steps forward, squinting his eyes, looking at Yan Siyin and Zhang Yingchang expressionlessly.

Zhang Yingchang just wanted to speak, but when he saw Luo Daniu's murderous face, he hurriedly closed his mouth.

Yan Siyin trembled with anger, pointed at Qin Chuan with one hand, and said vigorously: "You, you, you, ......"

Qin Chuan said lightly: "Father-in-law Yan, Fei Jiayu of Fenyang Zhixian County was forced to death by you, right?" ”

"You're bleeding!"

"Alas, Lord Fei is a good official, it's a pity."

Qin Chuan shook his head and sighed, then looked at the three thousand Ming troops behind Yan Siyin, and said, "Father-in-law Yan, Lord Zhang, your three thousand soldiers and horses are not enough to see in front of Qin, so please go back." ”

After that, Qin Chuan ignored them anymore and turned his horse's head and headed towards the mountain.

"You...... Audacious, disrespectful, and colliding with the official, today, this prison army beheaded you, a rebel and thief, for the emperor! ”

Yan Siyin scolded angrily, then suddenly turned around and shouted at the three thousand Ming troops behind: "Rest in place, make a fire to rebel, kill Jiuji Mountain in an hour, and kill the rebels!" ”

Hearing his words, the officers and soldiers present were all stunned, looking at each other and no one moved.

Zhang Yingchang came back to his senses and hurriedly whispered: "Father-in-law, this surnamed Qin can't be beaten, he broke 9,000 thieves with 1,500 troops." We only have 3,000 soldiers and horses, and we are definitely not his opponents. ”

"That'...... What should I do? ”

"Let's spare him for a few days, and there will be a chance to clean him up in the future."

Yan Siyin thought about it, suddenly stomped his foot, and sighed unwillingly.
