Chapter 330: Survival Rises

Zheng Gongzu was originally a native of Hanzhong, and in order to avoid the enemy, he moved to Wangjiazhuang outside Zitong City. Although it is an outsider, after two generations of Zheng Gong's father and grandfather, Zheng Gong's generation has also developed to more than 20 households and more than 200 people, and it has gradually become a scale.

As the head of the Zheng family, Zheng Gong not only takes care of the children of his own clan, but also gets along with the Wang family in the same village. This is also due to the generosity of the old man Wang.

Unexpectedly, after the death of Mrs. Wang, her son suddenly became sick and bedridden, unable to handle clan affairs, and the power of the Wang family fell into the hands of his daughter-in-law Zhang. This Zhang family is a femme fatale, and he has long been thinking about the Zheng family's land.

In the past two years, natural disasters have continued, and the harvest has been dismal. The Wang family even overbearingly cut off the Zheng family's water source, so that the Zheng family had almost no harvest for two consecutive years. For the sake of the overall situation and for his livelihood, Zheng Gong had no choice but to sell his land and property to barely support his family.

Who knew that the Zhang family was ruthless, and they had to exterminate the Zheng family, and the contradiction between the two surnames became increasingly acute. Eventually, a brawl broke out, with many dead and wounded in both houses. The Zhang family relied on the power of their own family and colluded with the government to make the Zheng clan resist. The government accepted a bribe from Zhang, arrested Zheng Gong indiscriminately, sentenced him to death, and put him in prison.

How could the children of the Zheng family endure this breath, take advantage of the dark moon and high wind, organize more than 60 people of the clan, wash the Wangjiazhuang in blood, and slash the Zhang family.

Since they had already killed people and rebelled, the Zheng family simply entered Zitong, robbed the prison at night, and released the prisoners. The prisoners were waiting for death, and when they had a chance to live, they did not need to mobilize, and directly joined the uprising.

Zheng Gong was forced to a dead end, and there was only one way to go to the dark. simply led everyone, robbed the arsenal, and then attacked the state capital. The county guard was unprepared and fled in a hurry, only to die in the chaos before leaving the city gate.

With a base area, Zheng Gong directly opened a warehouse to release grain, recruited troops, and gathered nearly 10,000 people in just one month, and then conquered the neighboring four counties one after another.

The imperial court sent Zhao Hu to attack thousands of miles, but Zhao Hu didn't know that Zheng Gong had so many people, so he didn't take him seriously at all. Who knew that when he first arrived in Zitong, his foothold was not stable, and he was successfully attacked by Zheng Gong, although the loss of men and horses was not much, but a lot of military rations were robbed.

defeated the imperial court general in the first battle, Zheng Gong was a little fluttering, and at the instigation of his brother, he established himself as the "king of the mountain" and gave a "reward" to his son and nephew.

These people were peasants who had no "revolutionary" theory or experience at all, and they were carried away by the victory, and they quickly lost their fighting spirit in the face of Zitong's "world of flowers."

Zheng Gong was still sober, especially when he saw that the conquest army was not retreating, but was only stationed far away, he felt a crisis. He urgently needed "talents", "generals" who led troops to fight, and "strategists" who gave advice.

posted a recruitment list, and he also began a "micro-service private interview".

At this time, Zhang Gu was not far from his "recruitment list". That night, he easily escaped from the camp, carefully hid outside the city for two days, disguised himself, and blended into Zitong City.

He was sitting in a restaurant in the city to have a full meal, and the little monkey sat beside him.

"What for?" Zhang Gu recognized the little monkey.

"Fight!" The little monkey grinned.

Zhang Gu grabbed the long knife beside him with a "pout".

"Don't worry! See the list out there? The little monkey grabbed his hand and pointed out the window.

"Catch me?" Zhang Gu didn't know what was written on the list.

"There is a debtor who is wronged! Even if they want to arrest you, they are also officers and soldiers, how can the rebels arrest you? The little monkey asked inadvertently.

Zhang Gu suddenly understood that this was sent by Geng Xiaofan to pick him up.

"What is the general's arrangement?" Zhang Gu lowered his voice.

"Not for the time being, this kind of thing can only be done at the right time. However, the opportunity is coming soon. ”

"What chance?"

"I think you're quite capable of fighting, I'll give you a chance to perform later."

"What does it have to do with that list?" Zhang Gu looked back again, and there were already a lot of people gathered in front of the recruitment list.

"That's Zheng Gong's recruitment list, sincerely recruiting talented people from all over the world. If you answer the call with your ability, it shouldn't be a big problem. It's a pity that your identity as a Han army is not easy to trust. So, you've got to fight. "The little monkey has already figured out a way.

"Fighting with you?" Zhang Gu looked at the little monkey's small body and dismissed.

"Fight us!" The little monkey looked behind him.

Zhang Gu looked over and found more than a dozen people walking into the tavern. It was someone from Zhou Shun's caravan.

"Do you want to bully more with less?" Zhang Gu suddenly became nervous.

"Don't worry, we'll be merciful, so you'll have to be in control. Only red, not killed! The bigger the movement, the better! ”

The little monkey said, got up, grabbed Zhang Gu's sleeve, turned around and shouted, "Brothers, this thief is here!" Come on! ”

Seeing this, Zhou Shun's people stepped forward quickly. Zhang Gu didn't care much, grabbed a hand, overturned the little monkey, and made a mess with everyone.

Several cases and plates were shattered to the ground.

Although Zhang Gu is brave, his two fists are difficult to beat with four hands, and the indoor space is narrow, so it is not easy to perform, so he gradually fell behind.

Seeing an opportunity, Zhang Gu got rid of his opponent and rolled over the window.

Zhou Shun and others chased closely.

Several people began to fight again in front of the recruitment list, Zhang Gu struggled to knock down the two people who were close to him, turned around and "escaped", but collided with a middle-aged man on the road and fell to the ground.

Before he could get up, he was pulled by the arm and pushed down again.

"With a lot of people, what kind of heroes are you, there is a kind of single-handedness with the master!" Zhang Gu struggled desperately, but found that it was not Zhou Shun's person who pressed him.

The middle-aged man who was knocked down by him was helped to his feet and walked to his side.

"Let go of me, let go of me!" Zhang Gu continued to howl.

The person who pressed him pulled out a long knife and put it on his neck, "Rushing into the mountain king is a capital crime!" The kid still dares to shout! ”

"What mountain-kun?" Zhang Gu was forced by the knife and didn't dare to move.

"Mountain-kun? Are you the Yamako? Ask the mountain king to be the master of the small people. The little monkey parted the crowd and squeezed in.

"Why are you fighting?" The middle-aged man who was knocked down just now was Zheng Gong. He had just seen this scene during his private visit to Weifu.

"Lord Qiyu, this kid was originally the leader of the Han army, and he robbed my family's property and killed my brother a few days ago. He should have been punished, but he escaped! The little monkey pointed at Zhang Gu, indignant.

"Oh~ You're a Han army? What is your name? What is your role? Zheng Gong was interested in Zhang Gu, he didn't expect that the Han army would "escape" into Zitong.

"If you don't change your name, you don't change your surname, you are Shanyang Zhanggu! General Chen Xun under the command of the centurion! Zhang Gu replied loudly.

"That is, the Han army, why did they kill and loot?" Zheng asked.

"Who are you? Why should you judge me? Zhang Gu was not afraid.

"Bold! This is the mighty mountain king! The guard with the knife shouted to stop Zhang Gu.
