Chapter 40: Encirclement and Suppression of Reinforcements

It had been a night and most of the day, and after letting the 30 militiamen go up the mountain on their own, Wu Gang also hurried back to Nanzhai.

As soon as he returned to Nanzhai, Wu's mother also buried: "Gangzi, you can be regarded as back!" ”

"Hey! It's good to be back! Father Wu sighed, if he had a choice, he really didn't want the child to go up the mountain to be a bandit!

Seeing the worries of the two elders, Wu Gang said: "Daddy, I just practiced martial arts with the owner of the village, and I also re-read and read, you can rest assured that the owner of the village will not go down the mountain to loot." ”

"Okay, you learn more words, at least you can be a gentleman in the future." Gangzi can regain literacy, which also makes up for his father's shortcomings.

Mother Wu was also much relieved: she thought they were going down the mountain to loot, and as for the fight between the cottages, this is also normal! Even in the villages, there are often fights over water and foraging grounds.

The sunset is infinitely better, just near dusk! Jiang Hu sighed and walked into the lobby!

"The owner of the village." The leaders of the houses immediately stood up to greet them.

Jiang Hu nodded indifferently and sat firmly on the main seat.

"Second master, tell me more about it!" Jiang Hu was angry and happy! It's a hundred elite soldiers who are angry, and it's gone! Thankfully, my children were released!

The second boss looked sluggish, but he was also gritting his teeth and persevering. "Brothers, the owner of the village! When a certain general arrived at Leitou Mountain, he learned that the two stockades of Leitou Mountain and Zuojin had been broken by the defeated troops of Liaodong! Later, we also met under the Leitou Cottage, and the skills of the two Liaodong leaders were not inferior to me, and there were dozens of leather armor soldiers in hundreds of mountain swordsmen. A certain planned to evacuate first, but the defeated village owner refused, and after a battle, our department was killed and wounded, and had to retreat! But who knew that there were several strong players in the rear, and there was even a general with chain mail! There are enemies in front and behind, and we can only admit it! After that, fortunately, the five masters negotiated with a young leader, and I waited for a few people to return! The owner of the village, this group of defeated soldiers in Liaodong is definitely not weaker than our Phoenix Mountain! ”

The second master now has no intention of taking revenge, but is worried that they will kill the mountain in the future.

"Hmmm! Second, you go and recuperate! "Seeing that the second master is so weak, Jiang Hu can't be angry with him!

After the second boss retired, the leaders of the house were also nervous!

After thinking for a while, the three village masters said: "Village masters, it seems that we can't send troops again!" Instead, expand the force! ”

Jiang Hu nodded: "Before we find out their strength, we can't have another conflict!" However, it is easy to expand troops, but it is difficult to raise troops! ”

The three masters smiled bitterly and nodded, it is not easy for the rich landlords under the mountain to live now, let alone on the mountain!

"But in this way, they will definitely occupy and control most of the cottages, and I am afraid that the entire Fengxi Mountain will be surrounded by them!" A retired old man said that he was also the former second master.

The leaders of the house also nodded, they knew that the two sides would face each other sooner or later!

At this time, the old gentleman, who was a military advisor, also spoke: "We also need to absorb troops, but we only need strong people, and what if the rest of the old and weak are given to them." The old man doesn't believe how many people they can feed. ”

"Yes, they can be dragged down by eating alone." The three masters laughed.

All the brothers agreed, and Jiang Hu did not hesitate: "Okay!" Starting tomorrow, absorb another 300 young people to expand the strength of the cottage, and then they will not be able to hold out, I am afraid that within two months, these defeated soldiers in Liaodong will have to flee from Xishan. ”

"Well, this is the best, even if they have two thousand men, they will not want to attack the mountain." The older generation of second masters is also relieved, and he can enjoy himself for a few more years.

The next day, Wang Yang and the two village owners continued to divide their troops into two ways to recover and attack the left near cottage, and Wugang would not be short of food. The grain in one county of the True Three World is enough to feed tens of thousands of people, not to mention that there are only three or four thousand people in Xishan.

After the Liaodong warriors defeated the elite soldiers of Phoenix Mountain, the large and small cottages near the left did not dare to resist at all, and some of the bandit leaders chose to flee or join Phoenix Mountain, and some chose to join.

There is no war in the real three worlds today, and Wu Gang stays in Leitou Mountain all day long. Now their family has moved to Leitou Mountain, after all, Nanzhai is too close to Xixiang, and it is easy to be attacked.

After a day's march, the two village owners also recovered nearly seven large and small cottages, and now the number of ordinary sword soldiers has reached more than 200.

After nightfall, Wang Yang and the two village owners also returned to Leitou Mountain to report.

"Young marshal, there are only five corpses today, and few of these cottages dare to resist!" The lord of the village said regretfully! He prefers to lead the village soldiers to the mountain people.

Wu Gang put away the corpses and replaced them with three township captains and two militiamen.

"Tomorrow, the four of you soldiers will divide into four routes to recover the eastern part of Xishan and the northern cottage as soon as possible, and then see the reaction of Phoenix Mountain."

"Honorable Order." The two village owners and the two township captains immediately clasped their fists and received the order.

Xixiangkou is an important place to enter Xishan, and Wugang arranged for a township soldier captain to be stationed with two township soldiers and dozens of mountain people.

Captain Teng is now also staying by the side of the two elders to protect him, after all, his combat strength is also very weak, not even half of Wu Gang's. After occupying the county seat, his basic combat power has also become 100, and if he practices his basic skills diligently, he can burst out with 150 combat power in two months, but he doesn't plan to practice.

The night was long and fast, and after eating and drinking, Wu Gang also went down the mountain alone and left.

True Three Worlds......

After subduing the two townships yesterday, the county lieutenant Lu and the deputy county lieutenant Wu also came to the junction of the three counties with the county soldiers.

There is an official road at the junction, which is also the fastest road to enter Nanzhu County.

There were 600 county soldiers, four deputy county lieutenants and ten squadron leaders in the two counties, and this combat strength was enough to capture the previous Nanzhu County. They were originally to support Nanzhu County, but after the fall of Nanzhu, they also stopped halfway.

"The city lord of Wu, the soldiers and horses of the two counties, camped in Baishui Township, more than ten miles away, and has no intention of advancing further." As soon as they arrived at the junction, the elves immediately detected the enemy's situation.

Wu Gang also pondered: he estimated that these reinforcements were waiting for the county guard to send troops over, and then attack Nanzhu County together.

Now there are nearly 400 county soldiers and 400 township soldiers in Wugang Department, and they can barely fight against the 600 county soldiers in the two counties, but in this way, they will also lose both.

"Wushuang, let the Insect Ant Army blockade Baishui County, and no one can be allowed to leave, if it is a businessman, let them go to Nanzhu County to trade first. At the same time, let the beast soldiers gather in Baishui Township and destroy the enemy together in the afternoon. ”

"Honor the city lord." The elf also immediately gave an order to the insects and beasts in the surrounding thirty miles.

It would take about three hours to march to Baishui Township, and Wu Gang didn't plan to wait in the True Three Worlds.

"Lieutenant Lu, advance to Baishui Township and fight a decisive battle in the afternoon."

"Honorable Order."

Then the war drums sounded, and nearly 1,000 soldiers and horses immediately set off.

Although the soldiers of the two counties are the same force, the camps of the two counties are far apart. If it weren't for the order from the rear last night, the two county soldiers would have entered Nanzhu County.

After the Nanzhu County system lost contact yesterday, the county guard also ordered an adjutant general to send troops to 600 this morning. Fortunately, the road was long and difficult, and it would take three days for the six hundred county soldiers to enter Nanzhu County. If the 600 county soldiers converge with the 600 county soldiers, such strength is already comparable to the strength of a county in Lingnan.

Fortunately, Wugang's forces were Han Chinese and not foreign invasions, otherwise even the militia and township soldiers would have gathered against him.
