Including the Wang family's compound, the 300 houses of Lou Fu have been turned into ruins, almost all the wood has been removed, and only some small rafters remain, which are of little use for them.

Zhang Kewang sent people to rummage through the ruins for a long time, and the timber they found was not enough to build a siege tower, even for a rushing car.

Most of the surrounding areas were bare mountain beams, and even if there were trees, they were dwarf miscellaneous trees, which could not be used as large timber, so Zhang Kewang had to shoot a thousand men and horses, go south along the Fenshui, and cut wood in a ravine a few miles away.

The rest of the men and horses moved all the more than 4,000 stone grains to the mountain beam one mile south of Mengjiazhuang, and camped with the help of the gentle slope of the mountain beam.

It's getting dark, they have to stay here for one night first, build siege equipment overnight, and then take Mengjiazhuang in one fell swoop tomorrow.

The batch of grain that had just arrived had not been crushed, so they still used the crushed grain and dried meat they brought to cook, and no one had touched the more than 4,000 stone grains, so they didn't know that there was anything inside.

Zhang Kewang and Zhang Dingguo agreed that there would definitely be a night attack tonight.

In this era when food is more expensive than human life, those two people will definitely covet this batch of food.

It is not a matter of losing troops at all, as long as there is food, more people can be recruited.

They also agreed that no matter how the other party sneaked attacked, they could only hold on to this batch of grain, and they would never kill it until the moment of life and death.

Therefore, from the beginning of the camp, the brothers Zhang Kewang and Zhang Dingguo kept patrolling the surroundings of the camp, arranging defenses, arranging shifts, and so on.

……

Those two groups of men and horses did intend to attack at night.

Guo Yan, Ren Liang and Wang Gang have already negotiated, and the two sides have joined forces, first beating Zhang Kewang, and then taking Mengjiazhuang, and dividing the money, grain, and women into fifty and fifty.

When they saw that the son of a son surnamed Qin had transported thousands of stones of grain to Zhang Kewang, they unanimously decided to attack at night tonight, and they were bound to defeat Zhang Kewang's 3,000 cavalry, otherwise if the other party took the money and grain to recruit troops and horses, they would have no chance.

As soon as the night attack was mentioned, Bashan Tiger came over and told with an ugly face how his two hundred horsemen were beaten by the son of a bitch surnamed Qin.

Guo Yan and Ren Liang all knew about it, but Wang Gangbao and the others listened to it with relish, especially Li Biaofeng and Tongtianzhu, they were still worried about the matter of Bashan Tiger changing the hexagram in battle, and when they heard that this guy had been planted in the hands of the surnamed Qin, they couldn't help but gloat.

Ba Shanhu told them about this, so that they could also learn the tricks of the son of a bitch surnamed Qin, most of the people and horses first recuperate, and only sent a small group of people to constantly harass, as cheap as they were, and after Zhang Kewang's 3,000 people were tortured to the point that they couldn't sleep at night, they would send most of the people to give the other party a hard blow.

After listening to Bashanhu's words, Guo Yan, Ren Liang, Wang Gangbao, and others all felt that this method was good and cheap enough.

So, as soon as a few people discussed, each of the two families sent 200 people, with the best war horses, to take turns to harass Zhang Kewang day and night.

Wandering around, there is also a Tian and Zhao Sandao.

The latter was beaten to the point that there were less than 500 people left, and after there were less than 500 people left, he also gritted his teeth and quietly ran back, hesitating whether to take refuge in Zhang Kewang or wait to fish in troubled waters.

The latter, with hundreds of men and horses, peeked secretly from afar, trying to find an opportunity to grab some food and run.

At night, Zhao Sandao suddenly saw the person sent by the son of a bitch surnamed Qin, who was a scholar, with two strong men, saying that he wanted to continue to join forces with him, and attacked Zhang Kewang at night, and he would grab the food at will.

Zhao Sandao thought to himself, I believe you are a ghost, you son of a son of a bringer is a cross between a fox and a wild wolf, and you don't know what happened when you sold it.

On the surface, Zhao Sandao agreed, but he would not easily get involved, and it was not too late for the surnamed Qin to fight with Zhang Kewang, as well as the other two groups, to grab some food.

The scholar sent by the surnamed Qin seemed to be very deceiving, and went happily.

The scholar's next goal is a day.

After seeing Yitian, he apologized and comforted, and swore that he would help Yitian bring people back, and then he got to the point, still joining forces to attack at night, and grab food at will.

Yitian didn't rush to express his position, but asked about the delay time, and sent dozens of his subordinates to quietly bypass the mountain beam, trying to catch these three people on the back road, and exchange some food with the son of a bitch surnamed Qin.

It's just that the three of them are very good, and his men and horses slipped away before they arrived, and they laughed at his lost dog from a distance.

In addition to these people, there was also a group of people nearby, about 800 people who were scattered in the first day, who were hiding in a mountain valley in the northeast, waiting for the Great Steward of Qin to give them a meal.

It wasn't until it was dark that the person in charge of Qin finally came, and the leader was the little old man who grinned with big yellow teeth and smirked, others called him Lao Huang, he was very kind and kind, and he also brought a few sacks of flatbread.

After everyone had eaten the fragrant flatbread, Lao Huang smiled and summoned the people together, let those with chicken blindness stand on the side, and then said, "Go and kill with me, and there will be bread to eat tomorrow."

Except for those who were blind, more than 600 rogues followed him with knives and guns.

Not far from the mountain beam where Zhang Kewang camped, Lao Huang was happy when he saw it, the mountain beam was shouting to kill the sky, but the thunder was heavy and the rain was small, and the formation did not fight at all, just a small group of people harassed.

Lao Huang simply led people up another mountain beam, squatted on the top of the mountain, grinned with big yellow teeth and smirked to watch the play.

It was Wang Gangbao's small group of men and horses who came to harass him, and they only rushed towards the mountain beam from the east, and as soon as they reached a hundred paces away, they turned around and ran away.

On the mountain beam, Zhang Kewang sneered, this kind of little trick is not worth his attention.

Zhang Dingguo frowned, his face a little solemn.

He was a little worried that if the other party used this kind of harassment all night, their subordinates might not even be able to sleep.

In the past few days, except for sleeping for four or five hours at night, they have been on the road for the rest of the time, and they have long been sleepy and tired, and if they do not have a good rest tonight, I am afraid that tomorrow's battle will not be easy.

As soon as he expressed his concerns, Zhang Kewang disagreed, and only ordered his subordinates to be on duty in three shifts, one shift to defend, and the other two shifts to pull cotton wool and stuff their ears to sleep.

As soon as the order was given, I heard a sudden sound of breaking the air in the south, followed by several screams.

Guo Yan Renliang's two hundred men and horses took advantage of the dark night to quietly walk to within 100 steps, put a wave of bows and arrows on it, and then ran away, and there were really a few unlucky ghosts who were shot.

When Zhang Kewang rushed over, the group had already run away.

As soon as this side calmed down, I heard another sound of breaking the air in the east, and the other two hundred people came again, but this time it was not simply shouting and scary, but like the south, approaching in the dark, releasing a wave of random arrows and running.

Immediately after that, they went to the south side......

Zhang Kewang's lungs were about to explode.

Lao Huang's big yellow teeth smiled brightly.

……

Qin Chuan didn't go to Zhang Kewang to join in the fun, because he had other things to do.

At about the second watch, he led 20 old bandits from Jiujishan, 200 Guan Emperor soldiers and 100 miners, wrapped them in cotton cloth, and quietly left Mengjiazhuang in the dark night and went west.

Although everyone in this team rode horses, the march was not fast, and they were cautious, and dozens of scouts were sent to explore the way in front so as not to be discovered.

After walking west for more than two hours, the team suddenly turned south and went straight to Huangcong Mountain.

That's right, Qin Chuan's target is Huang Congshan.

While those groups were fighting hotly, they quietly took a detour to raid the nest of Bashan Tiger.

The batch of grain that Zhang Kewang got only had a thin layer of grain in the sack, and there was another sack filled with grass and sediment, but it also used up more than 500 stone of grain from Qinchuan.

He was distressed, so he had to earn it back.

No one could have imagined that he would leave Mengjiazhuang alone at this time and lead people to attack Huangcong Mountain.

Bashan Tiger has very few people left, and he has brought a lot of people to Lou Fu, and there are only one or two hundred people guarding Huangcong Mountain at most, and most of them are old, weak, sick and new recruits.

There must be a lot of grain and silver on it.

There are also some women who are still alive.
