The next day, after yesterday's fierce battle, Yushanji returned to peace, and Liu Juntao ordered the crippled Yushan bandit Lao Liu "Evil Jiaolong" to be treated simply, and then imprisoned in a dilapidated adobe house in the village, and asked Yan Hu to personally lead people to guard it.

After that, Liu Juntao said to Guo Yongzhong and Zhang Baigui: "Guo Yuanwai, Master Zhang, there are also casualties in the young Zhuang in this fierce battle, please work hard to count the casualties of the young people, and when the Yushan bandit village is defeated, let's take out money and food from the capture to compensate those injured brothers!" ”

Guo Yongzhong and Zhang Baigui solemnly agreed, and then called Tang Yu to start handling it.

Afterwards, Liu Juntao hugged his fists and said to Hu Dexing: "Lord Hu, thanks to the heroic killing of the thief in this fierce battle, Juntao has thanked the villagers here on behalf of Yushanji!" ”

After speaking, Liu Juntao took Zhang Xiaojun and Yan Hu to bow and thank him, and Hu Dexing also hurriedly pulled up the three of them and said: "Don't talk about these brothers, I am an official and a soldier, these are all things!" It's just that I came with twelve brothers with me, and now there are only six left, and the thought of going back to face those orphans and widows makes my heart ache! ”

Liu Juntao naturally heard the voiceover, even Zhang Xiaojun and Yan Hu changed color slightly, with a trace of dissatisfaction on their faces, while Hu Dexing didn't see it.

Liu Juntao didn't care about this, and said with a smile: "Master Hu doesn't have to worry, when the Yushan bandit village is laid, I will also make up for the settling-in expenses of the brothers, and I will definitely not let the families of the brothers lack food and clothing!" ”

"So much for the best! So the best! ”

Then, Liu Juntao changed his words and said to Hu Dexing: "But there is one thing, Juntao still wants to ask Master Hu to bother more." ”

"Well said! Say! What's the matter? Brother Juntao, but it doesn't hurt to say! As long as I can do it, I will do my best! ”

"Jun Tao also asked Lord Hu to send a brother back to Huakou Town for help, and asked Lord Baihu to send some soldiers and horses."

Hu Dexing couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and said, "What? Juntao is not optimistic about the future war? ”

"Not really, just be prepared."

Liu Juntao said confidently: "With the strength of my Yushan Jiqing Zhuang Battle Formation, I will win this time to suppress bandits!" ”

"Just ......"

Then, Liu Juntao said worriedly: "I'm worried that the Yushan bandits are cunning and treacherous, once I lead the young people to take the initiative to attack, the bandit leader will once again divide his troops to raid my Yushan set, will Lord Hu still be sure to hold the village?" ”

"Hehe, it's not that Jun Tao can't trust Lord Hu, it's just that the number of brothers under Master Hu is too small, after all, it's hard to support alone!"

Hu Dexing nodded when he heard this, and said, "That's right, then I'll send a brother back to give it a try." But my ugly words are in front, the rest of the soldiers in the hundred households are useless, even if the hundred households send someone, it is just an embroidered pillow like goods, and it is not very useful. Besides, with what I know about Lord Baihu, he probably won't send anyone. ”

"The right to be a dead horse and a live horse doctor! As long as the Lord of the Hundred Households sends people and there are officers and soldiers with a certain number of troops, I expect that the bandits of Yushan will not dare to attack the village easily, and I can also rest assured that they will kill Yushan! ”

The two had decided to discuss, and Hu Dexing shouted: "Sun Xu! Meng Fanchen! Come and talk! ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw two burly men running over, Liu Juntao looked carefully, and saw that one of the two big men was in his forties, and the other was only in his twenties. However, both of them have one thing in common, that is, they are tall and strong, and they are very brave.

Just before the fight, Liu Juntao had already noticed the two, according to Liu Juntao's estimates, Hu Dexing's two subordinates each killed at least two bandits!

"Your Excellency!"

"Your Excellency!"

The two stood aside after saluting Hu Dexing, and Hu Dexing pointed to the older man and said, "His name is Sun Xu." ”

Then he pointed to another young man and said, "His name is Meng Fanchen." ”

Liu Juntao smiled at the two and nodded, which can be regarded as a greeting.

"These two are my soldiers, let them go back and bring reinforcements!"

Liu Juntao nodded with a smile and said, "Okay!" It's all up to Master Hu's arrangement. ”

After Sun Xu and Meng Fanchen hurriedly set off, Liu Juntao asked Hu Dexing to interrogate the "Evil Jiaolong" to see what useful information could be asked from his mouth, and to arrange a plan to attack the Yushan bandit village with everyone.

The words are divided into two ends.

Sun Xu and Meng Fanchen left Yushanji and hurried all the way, rushing towards the town of Huakou twenty miles away.

In the evening, the two of them rushed to the outside of Slip Town out of breath, and not far further on, it was where the hundred households were located. However, looking at the yamen of the hundred households that were already close at hand, Sun Xu and Meng Fanchao were worried.

It turns out that Hu Dexing and his subordinates have always been unpopular in the hundred households, and everyone has made the most contributions, but the benefits are the least, once the hundred households have something difficult, the first reaction is to let Hu Dexing take someone to deal with it, and those errands full of oil and water will never fall on Hu Dexing and others.

The reason is that Hu Dexing has the greatest ability and the most credit in the hundred households, and it is inevitable that he will be feared by the adults of the hundred households, so it is inevitable that he will wear small shoes for him; Secondly, Hu Dexing and his subordinates are not used to the behavior of the rest of the people in the Baihu Institute, and think that those people are all wine bags and rice bags with no skills, and they don't get along well with their colleagues around them.

In this way, Hu Dexing and his subordinates became the alternative of the hundred households in Huakou Town, and became a group of old scalpers, who could only work without any benefits.

At this time, Sun Xu and Meng Fanchen knew very well in their hearts that the Lord of the Hundred Households would definitely not send reinforcements, and the reason why Hu Dexing would send the two of them was just to respond to Liu Juntao's invitation and pretend.

"Recently, there have been rumors above that the boss will be promoted to the position of deputy hundred households, and the hundred households have been unhappy when they hear it, worried that they will be pushed by the boss, and at this time go to ask for help, and it is strange that the hundred households will send troops!"

Looking at Meng Fanchen's sad face, Sun Xu also sighed heavily and said, "Yes! I estimate that the adults of the hundred households still wish that our boss would mess up the errand! We'd better not come back alive! ”

"What then?"

Sun Xu took a deep breath and said, "Since the boss sent us here, let's give it a try anyway, let's go!" ”

It didn't take long for the door of the Yamen of the Hundred Households to open suddenly, and Sun Xu and Meng Fanchen walked out dejectedly, and it could be seen that the two of them were obviously scolded by the Hundred Households, and the matter of reinforcements was also gone.

Moreover, there was a chief flag officer behind the two, only to see the chief flag officer sneering and staring at Sun Xu and Meng Fanchen, and said coldly: "The Lord of the Hundred Households sent you to the Yushan to collect and suppress the bandits, that is to look up to you, such a great merit is willing to hand over to you Hu Xiaoqi, that is to treat Hu Xiaoqi as his own person, you have to keep it in mind!" ”

Sun Xu and Meng Fanchen listened to the words of the chief flag officer, and their hearts were already angry, but on the surface, they could only keep laughing, and they didn't dare to have the slightest disrespect.

"Since the errand has been handed over to you Hu Xiaoqi, then you must do your best! You go back and tell Hu Xiaoqi that if you exterminate the Yushan bandits, it's okay to say, if something goes wrong, you go up to Hu Xiaoqi and down to the soldiers, and you can't eat and walk around! ”

After speaking, the chief flag officer snorted coldly and turned back, leaving only Sun Xu and Meng Fanchen, who were stunned outside the yamen of the hundred households.

The words of the chief flag officer just now are very clear: there are no reinforcements! And we must exterminate the Yushan bandits! How could Hu Dexing and his six brothers be able to do it alone?

Sun Xu patted Meng Fanchen's shoulder and said, "Let's go!" We need to go back and report to the boss. ”

"But what about going back?"

"Now I can only count on that Liu Juntao to lead Yushan to win this battle!"

In the middle of the night, Yushan gathered, Guo Yongzhong's house.

It didn't take much time for Hu Dexing to ask the "evil dragon" clearly, and even the "evil dragon" himself was asked about how many widows he stole from.

At this time, Liu Juntao, Zhang Xiaojun, and Yan Hu sat on one side, Guo Yongzhong and Zhang Baigui sat on the top, and Hu Dexing sat on the side and talked about the information in detail. Although Tang Yu was holding the teapot, he had already forgotten to add water at this time, but listened with a frown.

"Before the bandit leader Evil Jiaolong raided our Yushan Collection, he had already sent his subordinates back to report the news, and asked the thief head town of the Yushan Bandit Village to lead the crowd down the mountain and prepare to wash our Yushan Collection in blood."

"There are eight big bosses under the eight directions of that town, and the evil dragon and the cloud eagle and snow tiger we killed are the sixth, seventh, and eighth respectively."

"There are more than 200 bandits in Yushan, including 10 archers. We've already killed five of us in this battle, and there should be five archers left on the mountain. ”

"The terrain of the Yushan bandit village is dangerous, there is only one sheep intestine path leading to the bottom of the mountain, it is not easy for the brigade of people and horses to pass through, and the bandit village is protected by earthen walls and fences, and it is not easy for us to attack without siege equipment."

"Judging from the time provided by the evil dragon, it is very likely that the eight directions of that town have received the news, and it is very likely that they have already led the people down the mountain!"

After listening to the news that Hu Dexing said, everyone was silent.

Guo Yongzhong and Zhang Baigui's eyes began to flicker, and Tang Yu frowned and meditated, not knowing what he was thinking.

And Zhang Xiaojun and Yan Hu looked at Liu Juntao, and the eyes of the two were also hesitant.

"Haha!"

Unexpectedly, Liu Juntao suddenly burst out laughing, startling everyone. Hu Dexing frowned and said, "Brother Juntao, what do you mean by this?" ”

"I should really thank that evil dragon for doing me a great favor!"

Everyone couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this, and then Hu Dexing reacted and shouted: "You mean that the evil dragon helped us transfer the main force of the bandits out of the bandit village!" ”

"That's right!"

I saw Liu Juntao stand up suddenly, and said loudly: "Just as Lord Hu said, we don't have siege equipment, if those more than 200 bandits are cowering in the bandit village, I really have nothing to do." I never expected that the evil dragon would help me transfer the main force of the bandits! As long as the town leads the people down the mountain and leaves his tortoise shell, I am sure that I will annihilate it in the wild! ”

After listening to this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, looking at Liu Juntao's confident appearance, and their confidence also increased greatly.

Hu Dexing saw that this victory was quite big, and asked with some excitement: "Jun Tao, how can we fight this battle?" ”

Liu Juntao pondered for a while and said: "After the town goes down the mountain, more than 200 bandits will definitely not be able to hide their whereabouts after a long distance, since this is the case, then we will set up an ambush halfway and destroy the scourge of the town in all directions!" ”

"Where is the best place to set up an ambush?"

Liu Juntao said with a smile: "I think it's very suitable for the reeds!" ”

At this moment, Sun Xu and Meng Fanchen rushed back, and as soon as they entered the door, the two said to Hu Dexing: "Boss! Lord Hyakunhe refuses to send reinforcements! ”

Hu Dexing's face couldn't help but change after hearing this, and he said angrily: "Hmph! Predictable! This bastard! ”

Liu Juntao said disapprerovingly: "It doesn't matter the overall situation whether the hundred households send troops or not, we will win this battle!" Without reinforcements, we can still defeat the Yushan bandits! ”
