"Fei Dangjia asked, if my brothers hadn't gone out of the mountain earlier, they would have been trapped in the mountains by now, and there is also a shortage of food in the mountains, and the people in the mountains have died of hunger. Since the leader of the cottage was recruited, those who were willing to join the official army went out of the mountains to join the army, and my two brothers were used to idleness, and they couldn't see the officials and soldiers greedy for money and silver to deduct food, so they did not join the army, but got a free body, and no longer did the business of robbing homes and houses. Divided into a few acres of rough land in the mountains, my brother was used to holding knives and guns, and where he still knew how to cultivate, he sold the land and returned to his hometown in exchange for silver. The cottage is still there and has not been burned, and some minions are stationed there, but there is no longer the glory of the past! It's dilapidated, how can you have a brilliant golden wall here, and it's booming! Hehe! Jiao Fang said calmly and casually, and everyone laughed continuously.

"Well, since your two brothers have voted for me, and you also have things to go into the mountains to cast their names, let me be a leader in my village! The original 200 soldiers are still under the two of you. After Pu Guzhong observed the words and expressions on the side, he felt that the Taihang Mountain scene that the two of them said was basically the same as the information he had heard, and how reasonable the words were, so he no longer had any doubts. Moreover, whenever you encounter such a backer in the green forest road, you will also want to help.

"Thank you two for taking you in!" Jiao and Wu hurriedly got up and saluted.

"My two brothers defected to Wagang, not only bringing 10,000 catties of refined salt, but also having something to report to the two masters." Jiao Fang secretly glanced at Wu Kui, and saw that Wu Kui nodded slightly, so he hurriedly said.

"Brother Jiao, what else do you have to say, say it quickly, when it's over, brother, I'll invite the two brothers to drink and catch the wind for the two of you!" Fei Tianxi is a young man, but he is quite righteous, he is not only the original green forest fellow, but also a family, so he said proudly.

"Two brothers, when the younger brother came from Zezhou, Hedong County, I saw a batch of grain transported to Qinshui, Qinyang and other places, I don't know what the brothers plan to do about it? The little brother hasn't been out of the mountain for a few days, and some of his hands are very itchy. After Jiao Fang glanced at Wu Kui beside him, he said to Pu and Fei. Wu Kui's eyes were also full of desire at this time.

"This king has also known about this matter, but he has not decided for a while, after all, it is different from the wild country manor, it is several large counties. Once it is done, it will definitely attract the Hedong officials and troops, and it will not be too late for Rong to weigh the gains and losses. Pu Guzhong was not surprised by Jiao Fang's information, he had already prepared, in his opinion, there was a shortage of food in the village, if Shan Xiongxin could not exchange the food there, the cottage would fall into a very difficult situation, and at that time he would rob the official grain of Bo County, it would be too late. How to decide? Pu Guzhong has not yet made up his mind. Let the small school outside the hall arrange wine and food, and set up a banquet in this hall, and the way to receive the wine banquet of the heroes in the rivers and lakes.

Wu Kui took a look at the gap and saw that there was no one around, and whispered to Jiao Fang: "Brother Jiao, the younger brother sees that this Pu and Fei are quite righteous, Zhou Zheng, who behaves in the rules of the rivers and lakes, is not a villain, and he still has to spare his lives, wouldn't it be better to accept them in the name of the lord?" ”

After hearing this, Jiao Fang also nodded silently, thinking in his heart about how to act in order to be perfect.

The sky was already dark, and a group of nearly 1,000 foot soldiers boarded the ship silently under the reflection of blood light, and no one made a sound, only the sound of the boatman paddling incessantly. On the bow of one of the ships, carrying several war horses, two heavily armed generals muttered in a low voice:

"Brother Jiao, I don't know if the messenger sent the secret letter or not. Don't waste it, I'll wait for a good calculation! ”

"Old Wu, these are not things to think about now, even if the letter is not delivered, Lord Lu must be prepared on the other side. I'll just do what Master Lu has planned. Once you get ashore, you just have to watch Fei Tianxi and don't let it escape at night. ”

The two people who spoke were Jiao Fang and Wu Kui, who had successfully won the trust of Wagang Pu Guzhong and Fei Tianxi. After the lobbying of the two people, coupled with the reality of the lack of food in the cottage, Pu Guzhong finally decided to send troops at night, cross the Yellow River at night, and raid Bo County, dozens of miles away, to rob the grain from the five remote counties of Zezhou in Hedong to relieve the difficulty of the lack of food in the cottage. It's just that the thousand-strong team that attacked at Jiao Fang's suggestion hid all the marks of Wagang Mountain, and in the eyes of outsiders, the robbers who suddenly appeared in Bo County were just some homeless people who spontaneously robbed the granary because of hunger, and even if the Zezhou government tracked down, they couldn't find the head of the Wagang army. Jiao Fang's proposal was the reason why Pu Guzhong and Fei Tianxi were determined to fight. This time, the general who led the attack was Fei Tianxi, and Jiao Fang and Wu Kui cooperated from the side. The big boss Pu Guzhong stayed in the cottage and couldn't hold out, just waiting for the good news to come back. Jiao Fang also left a thought, and this time he only brought 100 people who went up the mountain together, leaving the other 100 people mixed at the gate of the walled wall, so as to act at the opportunity. Once things go wrong, take advantage of the chaos to open the city gate and let the attackers enter.

In less than an hour, the thousand-man infantry army had quietly crossed the river, and after the army was reorganized on the north bank of the river, Fei Tianxi and the other three ran towards Bo County. One path takes the path, avoiding the village as much as possible, and taking Bo County from the mountain road between Wen County and Qinyang County.

Before the ugly time came, the whole army had reached the mountains and forests outside Boxian County and lay down.

"The second is in charge, the gate of the county town is closed, and only a few government soldiers patrol on the city wall, and there are no other abnormal situations." The two soldiers who sneaked to the city gate in advance to check the reality reported to Fei Tianxi.

"The second is in charge, my brothers have not taken credit for going up the mountain, and the brothers in the village are not convinced by the two of us, how about taking the city gate and giving it to my brother?" Seeing this, Jiao Fang hurriedly stepped forward to ask for battle, but in his heart, he still wanted to go in first to see if the arrangements had been made in the city, so as not to become a situation where stealing chickens and rice would not become a disaster.

"Well, since the two brothers are willing to go, Fei will fulfill you and wait. It's just that you can't storm it, and you can't storm it, so you need to climb up the city from the dark and subdue the guards of the gate. In Fei Tianxi's opinion, it is an easy thing to capture the city gate, the city wall of this wave of counties is not as tall as the wall of his own cottage, and the soldiers of the defense are obviously sleeping against the wall. Since the two brothers who were new to the mountain wanted to take credit, they also agreed.

Jiao Fang and Wu Kui waved their hands back, and a small group of relatives who followed behind them casually lined up and followed. The journey was very smooth, and in the dark night, Jiao Fang led more than ten people to hook up to the wall and climb up to the city lightly. Wu Kui led more than a dozen people along the corner of the wall to the edge of the city gate, waiting for Jiao Fang to open the city gate from the inside.

On the city wall, several government soldiers were gathering in a pile of fires to keep warm, and a few government soldiers were sleeping soundly against the wall. It's just that one of the soldiers in the barbecue was tearing a roast chicken and eating it with a mouth full of oil. If others don't recognize it, how can Jiao Fang not know it, it is Wu Tianxi, the commander of Zezhou and his immediate boss.

"Lao Jiao, I've been waiting for you for two days, why didn't your kid's ink arrive until now." It turned out that Wu Tianxi had already seen Jiao Fang and the others, and when he approached, he called him in a whisper without looking. Jiao Fang smiled bitterly, and then looked at the "government soldiers" around here, where are the government soldiers who are not embarrassed! Wu Tianxi, who was full of hidden weapons, followed his family generals, and even the few people who pretended to be asleep had strong bows placed under their feet.

"General Wu, if Jiao is late, Pu Guzhong, the owner of Nawa Gangzhai, has quite a brain, and he is reluctant to come from afar to rob grain, which has provoked the government. The last general and Kuizi also finally said that he came in disguise, and Kuizi is now waiting for the door to open outside the city gate, and Fei Tianxi is still waiting for my good news here in the mountains and forests a few miles away! Wu Tianxi couldn't help but laugh softly with the pro-soldiers around him.

"Well, my city gate is not easy to take, under the reflection of this torch, it can be seen from miles away, and I need to make a scene for him to see. Come, extinguish a few torches, and still have a few sacks down to the city. If not, how can you beat those thieves? Wu Tianxi instructed a few relatives sitting around him. Jiao Fang and more than ten of his relatives who went to the city also came over, and ate a few chickens that were just roasted on the fire, and ran all night, Jiao Fang and the others had already had empty stomachs, and everyone gathered to eat chicken to fill their stomachs. They are all his own brothers, Wu Tianxi doesn't fight with him, and he also handed over a few jars of good wine around him.

"Look, the second master, the torch waved outside the city gate, and Jiaotou was able to get it." A henchman beside Fei Tianxi was sharp-eyed, and shouted to Fei Tianxi, who was waiting for news on the side.

Fei Tianxi hurriedly looked around, and sure enough, he saw a torch waving at the city gate, which was the agreed signal. Looking at the city wall, several of the dozen torches that were originally burning have been extinguished, and you can vaguely see something thrown under the city.

"Good! The second generals Jiao and Wu succeeded in the battle, and ordered the whole army to immediately enter the city, directly take the grain and store it in the treasury, and not kill innocents indiscriminately. Fei Tianxi was overjoyed, everything went very smoothly, and it seemed that tonight would be a great success.

There was no need to hide their whereabouts anymore, and the 1,000-watt guards lit torches one after another, screaming and rushing towards the city gate. Fei Tianxi and more than a dozen relatives rode in front, rushed all the way through the gate of Boxian County and entered the city, leading the subsequent infantry to run along the main road in the city to the county capital. It's just that they didn't see Jiao Fang and Wu Kui in the dark night, but they had already gone to the county government, and they didn't care, after all, their 1,000 men and horses had already entered the city, and the 2 or 3 hundred soldiers in the city could only flee from the wind.

Seeing that he was about to arrive at the gate of the county government, suddenly a cannon rang out, like a thunderbolt in the night sky, and Fei Tianxi, who was shaking in front of him, almost fell off his horse. Hurriedly reining in the horse's head, and looking ahead, there were thousands of torches at the intersection, illuminating the night sky as if it were day. In the light of the fire, he saw a man riding a horse in the middle of the road.

Even if Fei Tianxi is dull, he knows the plan at this time. It's just that he couldn't see the appearance of the general clearly, so he took a few steps forward and shouted: "Who is coming?" Do not hinder the king. ”

I saw that the general in front of him also took a few steps forward, waved the red-blooded gilt pistol in his hand and pointed at Fei Tianxi and said, "Fei is in charge, don't come to harm?" A certain Zezhou commander Wu Tianxi also! ”

"Huh?" When Fei Tianxi heard that the person in front of him turned out to be the king of Taihang Mountain, Wu Tianxi, who had been invincible all over the north, was so frightened that he almost fell off his horse, and the gun in his hand almost fell off his hand unsteadily.

"King Wu, you and my colleague Lvlin are fellow Daoists, you don't stay in Zezhou, how--how can you appear here again?" Fei Tianxi tightened the reins and asked tremblingly.

"Huh! Unfortunately, a batch of beef and mutton was just escorted here today to help the people, and it seems that Fei Dangjia has a fate with Wu! Wu Tianxi saw that Fei Tianxi was timid before he fought, and he also felt funny.

"Even so, even if King Wu is an invincible general, Fei will have to learn it." Fei Tianxi has no steps to go down at this time, if he can't make a move, he will flee, and when it spreads to the rivers and lakes, his name will be completely stinky, and it is better to be killed by Wu Tianxi. With that, he urged his mount to step forward and raised his spear to stab.

When Wu Tianxi saw his gun coming, he didn't use both hands, just waved the gilded pistol in his hand with one arm, and pushed the tip of Fei Tianxi's gun to the side with just one move. Fei Tianxi stabbed the air with a shot, and couldn't stop the war horse and rushed through Wu Tianxi's right side. Seeing this, Wu Tianxi took advantage of the situation to take the puff noodles and slapped Fei Tianxi's heart, "snap", Fei Tianxi's back was hit hard, and he immediately fell on the horse's back, he wanted to hold the horse's neck to prevent himself from falling off the horse, but Wu Tianxi's momentum was too great, he shook it, or planted it headlong, and the pro-soldiers immediately stepped forward to hold Fei Tianxi down and tied him up.

The 1,000 people who followed Fei Tianxi were also shocked when they saw this, and they looked at each other, not knowing what to do. This Wu Tianxi's reputation is too loud, who dares to come to the rescue?

"Wagang brothers, the matter has come to this, what if you don't descend?" At this time, I saw Jiao Fang coming out of the crowd and shouting loudly.

These Wagang soldiers looked around, only to see that there were torches behind them, neatly dressed in the firelight, and the thousands of Zezhou soldiers with shining swords had already surrounded their thousands of people, and saw that Jiao Fang and Wu Kui's two generals had already surrendered, so they had no intention of resisting, and all of them abandoned their swords and guns for a while, and knelt on the ground.

The battle also ended hastily because the whole army of Wagang surrendered without a fight. After Wu Tianxi received the surrendered troops, he immediately sent 2,000 soldiers, 1,000 of them to change the uniforms of the Wagangzhai soldiers, and 1,000 people dressed as ordinary people to escort the grain trucks, and returned to the Wagang cottage at night. According to Lord Lu's strategy, he wanted to take advantage of the dark to defraud Wagangzhai. At this point, time is still running out. If it is dawn, then Pu Guzhong will definitely be able to recognize the soldiers returning to the mountain on the wall.

Fortunately, most of the soldiers and horses in Zezhou were horse troops, and 2,000 men and horses drove the carriages to the ferry, and the boats by the river were ready-made, and the sleeping boatmen, grain trucks and officers and soldiers crossed the river.

Pu Guzhong, who had not slept all night, stood on top of the walled city at the bottom of the mountain at this time, and kept looking at the dark and dark distant road, and the light snow in the sky was still falling, only slightly smaller. He was expecting the light of torches in the distance. It's just that it's about to be the hour, there is already a trace of white light in the sky, and before I see the returning people and horses, I can't help but feel anxious, and I keep walking back and forth on the city wall.

"Big boss, you're back, look at it!" Suddenly, there was a burst of cheers from the wall, and a personal school was busy reminding his own commander.

Pu Guzhong hurriedly raised his eyes, and sure enough, countless torches appeared in the distance, like a long dragon, winding and circling from afar. It's just that the sky is still dark and the snow covers his eyes, Pu Guzhong can't see clearly, but he just feels that this is his own victorious return of soldiers and horses.
