The Qingzhou army and horse thieves looted the Yunzhou Mansion, and many other methods such as black eating makeup and drugs used by the Tian Tiger Department were originally taught by Duan Jingzhu's department.

When the master's tricks against the robbers of Dulu Mountain are naturally more proficient.

Duan Jingzhu's troops reoccupied the cottage almost without a fight, and laughed at the results of the battle that the bandits had largely cleaned up.

Sun Anbu arrived, cleaned up the cottage, divided the 10,000 soldiers into a group, continued to pretend to be a large tribe of migration, each department echoed and protected each other, rode the best horses, drove a large number of cattle and sheep pack horses and carts, and evacuated calmly to the seaside with loose outer and inner tightness.

Thousands of bandits in Dulu Mountain, except for most of the leaders and backbone leaders, are still alive.

The Duan Jing Technique Department did not eliminate them, and thoughtfully moved these people to the house, so as not to be frozen to death in the deep mountain spring when it was still very cold outside.

Killing most of the leaders and Sekimu is to prevent the gang from quickly breaking up with their respective leaders in a panic after they wake up.

Keeping a few powerful leaders as the spiritual core can keep this group of people screwed together.

The robbers ate the beef and mutton roasted and drank the delicious mutton soup, ate well, drank well, and slept well in the room, and when they woke up the next day, they were shocked, and their drowsy heads were immediately awake without pouring ice water.

The cottage is empty again.

They had nothing but the clothes on them. Weapons? Not even a self-defense dagger remained.

I knew that I was plotting and was robbed by the black, but I didn't understand what the hell was going on, and who was doing the ghost.

Why did you steal everything, but didn't you take the lives of all the cottagers?

The living leader at this time played the leading role of the spiritual pillar. Efforts to work hard to stabilize and unite people's hearts, and quickly check people. It was found that there were a lot of bosses and a few inconspicuous little people in the kitchen. There is no shortage of other minions.

The robbers opened their brains and quickly attributed the culprit to the old owner, the Cui family.

They analyzed that only the Cui family, who was familiar with everything in the cottage, could be so unknowingly blackmailed. The Cui family must have a secret nest elsewhere in Yanshan Mansion. Those who were not caught and killed by the government hid in that lair, and continued to make trouble in the dark to make profits.

And the leaders and others who disappeared were actually still the subordinates of the Cui family. At the beginning, he pretended to be the same person who was abandoned by the Cui family and lurked, and used this refugee wave to help the Cui family once again skillfully use their force to achieve the purpose of accumulating wealth, and this time they really abandoned us after using it.

Rage.

But there is still nothing to be done. What matters more now is what to do.

Everything is back to the situation it was in when it was first abandoned, only this time it is worse.

There really is nothing left.

At this time, the gang must be a dead end, and if you want to survive, you must unite as one.

Anyway, there is nothing left, there is no wealth to drag down, and I am not afraid of being robbed of something, I want to leave. You can easily sneak into the mountains to hide, and you are not afraid of the officers and soldiers coming to encircle and suppress, and if you continue to stay here, you will at least have shelter from the wind and rain, and you will freeze to death and starve to death if you immediately escape into the mountains.

Grab it.

In order to get food and everything you need, you can only use this as a base to continue to grab. With weapons, tents, waiting, it's not too late to escape.

However, you can't rob empty-handed, at least you have to have a stick, otherwise you will be sent to death.

They rummaged through the cottage and found a few broken axes that had been thrown at random by someone in the firewood room. This harvest alone made the thieves almost cry with joy.

Finally there's an iron guy. Finally, there is something to cut wood as a weapon, and there is no need to learn from the wild man to chop wood with stones.

The gang prepared wooden sticks and went down the mountain. Taking advantage of the darkness to sneak into the nearby villages to fight the Khitan people, relying on the large number of people and having experience in fighting, they are more crazy than robbing the gold and jewelry of the Khitan nobles. Finally, he had some homemade knives, guns, bows and arrows and other weapons and horses, and then continued to frantically plunder everything he could.

The madness of this group's behavior. The arrogance of arrogance made the government notice. Aware that it was actually the same group of people in Dulu Mountain, these robbers were not eliminated under the blows and killings of the elite of five thousand cavalry?

After a check, the cavalry sent did not come back and disappeared without a trace, and they must have been killed by this gang of robbers in the mountains.

At this time, the government was already able to free up more troops, and in a fit of rage, it sent more troops to Dulu Mountain to pursue and suppress, and sent a mixed army of horses and infantry, mainly infantry troops, in order to go deep into the mountains to hunt down and kill this crazy group of thieves.

This time, the Liao army was not blindly arrogant, followed up and reconnoitred in advance, and found out the exact location of the robbers hiding in Dulu Mountain before encircling and suppressing them.

Heavy assault.

However, the robbers have been extremely vigilant since they suffered a heavy loss last time, and the cottage is heavily guarded, and the Liao army was detected as soon as they were killed, and the effect of the surprise attack was almost nothing. The Liao army attacked under the pressure of the generals, and was killed and wounded by the fierce robbers who took advantage of the terrain, and the Liao army was good at shooting, bullying the robbers and lacking bows and arrows to finally break through the cottage, and killed many robbers in the fierce battle.

The robbers were temporarily entrenched in Dulu Mountain, and they were ready to run away at any time, but at this time, the cottage could not hold on, and immediately retreated to the deep mountains.

General Liao saw that there were so many dead and wounded soldiers, and he was furious, how could he let it go, and waved his army to chase and kill, but even if he chased into the mountains, he still let the robbers escape a lot.

No way, the robbers are more familiar with Dulu Mountain, and they are also better at fighting mountain warfare than the Liao army.

The Liao army was trapped in the mountains, and continued to suffer heavy losses from robbers, and lost a lot of soldiers.

The officers and soldiers did not find the expected amount of property and horses in the cottage, nor did they find a lot of money on the robbers they killed.

The robbers who were caught confessed that the looted money was hacked, and they were calculated by the thieves of the Cui family, and they had to loot frantically to survive because they had nothing.

However, the government thinks that this gang of robbers is completely a group of dehumanized madmen and devils, and they are as cunning and stubborn as the Cui family traitors who led them, and they are tortured in the same way, and they only confess to not knowing any secrets and lies designed to deceive the army and the government. The rebels were encircled and suppressed before, knowing that this place had been exposed, and they had transferred the dirty things they had gained, and they had no worries and drags, and they could abandon the cottage at any time and abscond into the mountains to hide, so they took advantage of the convenience here to continue to loot unscrupulously and frantically. Expand the harvest of national hardship.

They must also have the remnants of the Cui family who led and commanded them, and the accomplices who hid and kept the dirt outside.

It was a place where a large number of horses, cattle and sheep could pass and hide. In short, it will not be in the deep mountains where it is difficult for people to walk.

The remnants who fled to the mountains did not have to venture into the pursuit with great difficulty.

These people lack food and clothing. Unable to survive in the deep mountain wilderness, they will soon return to the edge of the mountains where it is convenient to loot. Or flee back to the hidden lair and clean it up when the time comes.

Youzhou began to search the places outside the mountain that might be the nest of the Cui family, striving to eradicate the Cui family and completely end the hidden dangers, and dispatched troops to go around to recruit other thieves.

The Khitan refugees, who had only recently learned to occupy the mountains and become robbers, were naturally entrenched in the periphery of Yanshan, which was convenient for entry and exit and looting, and under the blows of officers and soldiers, they left Youzhou one after another.

The Liao army found that they were basically Khitans from Liaodong, and they also understood the suffering and hardships of these people, and they neither killed nor embarrassed these people when they caught, but confiscated the dirt. These people were incorporated into the army to supplement the lack of capable combat forces.

Duan Jingzhu's department was silent and unnoticeable during the special sensitive period, and used Dulu Mountain to successfully divert the attention of the official Liao army to the deep mountains, and kept the secret of Yanshan's hideout.

If the four of them didn't have this bit of wisdom, they would have led the team to be horse thieves in a foreign land, and they would have been swallowed up to the point that there was no scum left.

On the Qingzhou side, Wang Qing's people finished getting the horses, and the people from Jiangnan also came, and they also wanted to sneak into the Liao Kingdom to take advantage of the fire to rob.

Fang La got the news from the north even later.

Jiangnan is a land with many mountains and rivers. It is not a region where the cavalry of the brigade is exalted. Fang Labu also did not attach importance to cavalry.

Through the robbery in the north, he and his key members and personal guards are now equipped with war horses, and there is no urgent need to get horses.

However, Fang La wanted to have a cavalry royal forest army to guard the center and show his majesty after pulling the flag and rebelling. Since the northern feast is rare. He also doesn't mind taking the opportunity to empty the gloves and make enough money for the white wolf at a time.

In the past, the person who was responsible for making horses for Manichaeism has always been the core backbone of the sect that is both civil and military-Lu Shinang.

Fang La unswervingly opposed the Song Dynasty as the emperor, eager to get something, and was also generous. At once, it was handed over to the five thousand riders of Lu Shisang.

These riders were some of the future members of the Royal Forest Army that Fang La had specially selected and cultivated from the cult, and they were all brainwashed diehards.

Lu Shinang's task is: First, get as many weapons as possible from the Khitan refugees.

Manichaeans disguised themselves as bandits from all over the world. The weapons snatched from the people, the quality is generally not good, they are basically iron knives, there is no clad steel, they are too soft, they will be curled up after cutting a few people, and they will be bent into a big lonely after being hit hard, and the battle formation is not used at all.

The knives made by the sect are not of good quality due to the lack of skilled craftsmen, and the shortage of iron costs a lot of money.

What is most lacking in the religion is good weapons.

If you can get a large number of sharp scimitars and bows and arrows from the Khitans this time, the strength of the sect will really rise.

The second task is to get as much money as possible from the Khitans.

The third is the war horse, it is best to get 5,000 horses, assemble them into royal cavalry at once, and further train them into a strong army as soon as possible.

Lu Shinang hurried to the northern border with his old subordinates such as the Twelve Gods of Jiangnan and 5,000 new men who had been with him in the north to make money, but it was three autumns late. The influx of refugees has passed, and the refugees' spring planting in their new homes has been completed.

Cangbei Border Pass, which is rapidly gathering merchants from all over the Great Song Dynasty who have begun to sell goods and obtain huge profits from this year, are patiently waiting for the Liao State to open the checkpoint and allow merchant groups to pass. The local garrison and the government, no one cares about the more than 5,000 Jiangnan men who poured in.

Seeing that the Cangbei Army and the inn had adhered to the trade and horse trading guidelines formulated by Marquis Wen Cheng, and still did not make things difficult for them, Lu Shisang immediately breathed a sigh of relief. As for how to complete the task, he was not discouraged, and tried to give it a try, and it was a big deal to steal as before.

There are many capable people, and you are worried that you can't complete the sect leader's instructions quickly?

He led the team to sneak across the border from Hengshan, which he was accustomed to walking in the past, and he didn't want to take care of his sincerity and positive attitude towards the sect leader. There are actually several Khitan horse thieves hiding in Hengshan.

These horse thieves were unable to stand in the Liao border and had to flee here under the emergency form of Yanshan Prefecture also launching a severe crackdown on the underworld forces, especially horse thieves, in the south.

Those who can rob and kill each other on the migration road and break through the army's search, encirclement, and pursuit so far are naturally the strongest among the horse thieves.

In fact, the main force is the tribal warriors who retreated from the defeat of Liaodong to find their relatives.

What makes them feel even more tragic in the anger of following the regular army in a confused battle and losing nothing, is that their tribe and his relatives did not die under the sword of the enemy in Liaodong, but died in the looting and slaughter of their own people on the migration road.

Disappointed in the court, disappointed and resentful of their fellow clans, the rest is naturally ferocious looting and revenge on those nobles and tribes who relied on their power to devour other tribes and kill their relatives.

Hiding in Hengshan, they felt that the Song army was easy to bully, and it was convenient for them to advance and retreat freely and survive safely.

If the Liao army came to encircle and suppress, they could hide in the Song realm. If the Song army came to encircle and suppress it in a big way, they could hide in Liao.

It is also convenient for both sides to loot, especially for robbing the weak, incompetent and rich Song people.

There are only three or four thousand horse thieves in Hengshan, but they have a huge amount of wealth and nearly 10,000 good horses.

Horses are important wealth and indispensable help for life in the eyes of the Khitan people, no matter how much, as long as they can take it away, they must instinctively take it away with all their might, spring is coming, weeds are everywhere, and they don't worry about feeding horses. Moreover, to be a horse thief, a large number of good horses are needed to carry away a large amount of looted money and materials for flexible transfer.

After Lu Shisang sent someone to reconnoiter clearly, he was as excited as Gou Heng and Gou Ying when they were in the mountains.

These former Khitan warriors were brave and good at fighting, but unfortunately their forces were scattered, and dismounting was not at all the opponent of the superior Manichaeans who were the best at mountain warfare.

Lu Shisang exterminated the horse thief, and when he checked the harvest, he and the twelve gods couldn't help but be ecstatic.

The task of horses and money ordered by the sect master was easily accomplished. The next thing to do is to grab as many weapons as you can, and by the way, get some more money. Of course, if the horse is easy to get it, you might as well get more of it.

Jiangnan is not suitable for large-scale horse warfare, but you can easily get more war horses for nothing, why not do it?

Hengshan was not safe under the threat of the Liao army.

These huge windfall gains should be moved to the safe zone as soon as possible.

Lu Shisang immediately arranged for the three gods to take 2,000 people to separate ways, pretending to be horse dealers with dozens of people as in the past, taking care of each other on the way, fighting the enemy together, passing through different places in Qingzhou in order to hide the attention of the Cangbei army, and hurry up to transport them to their hometown in the south of the Yangtze River.

After the three gods led the team to leave with high morale, Lu Shisang took Hengshan as a base and first sent old men to sneak across the border of Liao into Liao to find out the situation.

Inspired by the horse thieves he killed, his goal was to raid and plunder the punished Khitan nobles and powerful tribes who had been placed on the border to strengthen their defenses.

These Khitan talents are the richest, and the horses and weapons and equipment are also the best, which is convenient and quick to achieve the goal, and the most worth grabbing.

With the information in hand, he and the remaining nine gods under his command planned in detail, either concentrated their forces or attacked separately, and used their good climbing skills to sneak into the castles of those Khitan lords at night, raid and kill everyone, and specialize in plundering horses, money, and weapons.

They succeeded, but the Khitan warriors were not vegetarians.

In this process, Lu Shibao made huge gains, but the loss of manpower was not light, from more than 3,000 people to about 2,000.

Jiangnan Jiushen is lucky, all of them are injured, but none of them are dead or disabled.

They suggested that there were not many people, and if they continued to rob it, first, it would have already alarmed the Liao people to be difficult to grab, and second, there would be not enough manpower to escort the harvest home if they died.

Lu Shisang agreed, and this morning he had a full breakfast in Hengshan, and then moved through the mountains to the Song Realm, but was suddenly intercepted and killed by thousands of Liao troops in ambush halfway. (To be continued.) )
