Meng Chang said: "When we saw the injustice here, we had no choice but to jointly sue Qufu, thinking that his boss was a sage, even if he was a little mediocre, he also knew the affairs of the Great Dao. Unexpectedly, within two days, a matchmaker came to the door in the Qufu Yamen, claiming that Yin Gongzi of Qufu County was already Kong Yue in the phase, and he was willing to accept him as a concubine, and was finally driven out by Han Sheng! ”

Yu Zhilong raised his eyebrows and said: "Qufu is not less than dozens of miles away from Quanlin, how do they know it?" This must be the invitation of the big family of the spring forest, and the revenge of selfishness! "Tonight, when I saw the appearance of the two daughters, Yu Zhilong was greatly surprised, thinking that if the big gentry and the Yanai in that place were greedy for beauty, they would not give up!

"It's exactly as you say. The two sisters are beautiful, and there are many greedy people in the place, because of the Confucian family's poetry and books, although they are a small side branch, because they are afraid of face, they are not good at openly robbing marriage, and now they have offended the local big family, so they were framed by him. ”

"What is the family background of Han Sheng, the big family in this place knows a lot, and later we broke his family, took the steward, and asked this person to find out. This thief has long coveted Hansheng's sister, and he was rejected before, so he held a grudge, and now Hansheng is a petition for the people, and this thief is hateful, and he specially presents a secret letter to Yin Gongzi of that county, pretending to praise Hansheng's sister Xianzi is extraordinary. The name of Yin Gongzi in this county is known far and wide, and he is a master who is greedy for sex and harmful flowers, how can we send it like a fire pit? Jin Yan continued.

Kong Bi, who had been silent next to him, suddenly stood up and said: "It's all small recklessness, the small one is a local farmer, the family has a large population, and there are a few thin fields, but after catching up with several disaster years, I had to borrow money to survive, and so far the principal and interest have increased more than ten times; This year, there is another local rainstorm, the river is overflowing, there are many grains of thousands of acres of river beach land in my township, and there is no harvest in dozens of acres of river land that my family still has! This time, the main family was greedy, and took the opportunity to forcibly collect rent, not only forcibly pulling away the only remaining ploughing cow in the family, but also using my ancestral land to pay off the debt. It's hateful that he colluded with the government earlier, and I waited until the government had a little excuse, and a few friends were detained and imprisoned by the officials who were waiting early! ”

Jin Yan said: "There are no less than 100 tenants or debtors in the local area, and I and Hansheng can't see it, so I wrote a complaint and sued the government, but unexpectedly summoned a disaster!" "Jin Yan is a foreign surname of the Kong clan, and his status in the Kong clan is even lower.

"In fact, today's fruit is not a reason for litigation, we used to ridicule the current affairs, uninhibited words, and have a small reputation in the township, if the tenants and farmers around them are entangled with the official gentry, they often come to our place to ask for help, so they invite many people from large households and official gentry to be jealous. Debt collection disputes are just a starting point. Kong Ying said lightly.

Meng Chang said: "Although the local government is a sage, when it encounters self-interest, it has long been blinded by lard. Hansheng's family also had hundreds of acres of fertile land, and the surplus from the field often helped the surrounding villagers, and the harsh actions of local big families were repeatedly disturbed by it, and they had long regarded Brother Hansheng as a thorn in their side. This time, he actually tried to falsely accuse Han Sheng of having a relationship with Liu Futong's remnants, connecting with the villagers, criticizing the government, and having a heart of disobedience. If it weren't for the conscientious Yading in the county government who privately told the letter, Kong Bi and the others would have taken the risk of robbing the prison, and everyone would have no luck! ”

Only then did Yu Zhilong and others understand that it was Kong Ying and others who dared to invite them to be quite cynical, and used to help the poor in their neighbors, and wrote letters for these peasant households to represent them in court, so they were hated by the local officials and gentry. Now that the local bigwigs have taken this opportunity to accuse them of being bandits, Kong Ying and others have no way out, so they have to partner up to Liangshan.

At the beginning, Liu Futong gathered people to rebel, using Maitreya as a medium, and many Guizhou leaders in western and central Shandong joined in. Although Liu Futong is now hiding in the mountains, its influence is still not small, and the local government is afraid of snakes and scorpions, and would rather kill than let go.

"What happened?" Yu Zhilong asked.

Kong Bi looked left and right, and said: "The little companion was imprisoned, and later I heard that the official mission was going to arrest several sons, and I planned to report it to him quickly, but the official messenger took the first step and detained the sons of the Kong family. Since we were no longer able to accommodate ourselves, we simply tore our faces with the officials, gathered hundreds of fellow villagers that night, robbed the county prison, and rescued everyone! Then he entered the mansion of the inferior gentry and slaughtered the man who was full of men! ”

Qu Bo and Qian Zheng high-fived and laughed: "Good man! Grievances and grievances are clear, revenge must be avenged, and work happily"

Xie Lin listened quietly, but he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. He has been an official in Linqu for a long time, and he is by no means a humble gentleman when he asks himself, and he has a clean breeze on his sleeves, and it is rare to be confused and judge the case.

Meng Chang observed his words, saw Yu Zhilong nodded slightly, guessed that he didn't like such blood, and continued: "That inferior gentleman has always been notorious, and for several generations, I don't know how many people's land has been seized, how many good people's wives and daughters have been occupied, and countless families have been ruined. Today's fruits are all self-inflicted, and they are also the cycle of heaven, and retribution is dictated! Fortunately, the mother and daughter of the Tian family were safe, and the brothers and sisters of the Kong family were released from prison safely. ”

Yu Zhilong sighed: "The Yuan court is tyrannical and treats the people like animals, he is not benevolent, what do I mean?" ”

"Since you are safe here, rest for a night tonight, and tomorrow morning someone will lead you back to Linqu."

Kong Ying knelt down and asked: "We are displaced, there is no way to survive in the troubled times, now fortunately the general is protected by the general, we are willing to carry the whip and stirrup for the general in the future, and the liver and brain are smeared!" It is not known why the general personally led the army here? ”

Meng Chang, Jin Yan, and Kong Bi were also curious, this Fei General would never be able to pinch and calculate, and calculated that they happened to come here at this time, so they should answer here.

Yu Zhilong smiled slightly, and explained the matter of leading the army to Yishui City.

After speaking, Meng Chang slapped his leg and shouted: "I see! I have been walking through the mountains and forests on the road, and I met a number of panicked people on the back road, and there were even a few old and weak women and children inside, Han Sheng was careful, and specially ordered a few farmers to pretend to be mountain walkers, and went forward to investigate, only to know that there was a cottage in front of him, named Qingfeng Village, somehow, the village seemed to have an internal response, leading countless officials and soldiers to sneak attack on the mountain, and actually suppressed this village! These people are in a hurry, anxious to get away in a hurry, is nowhere to go, panic at a loss, if the general asks, there are just three or four people in the team from Qingfeng Village. ”

Hearing that Qingfeng Village was attacked by the official army, everyone in the Jing'an army was surprised.

"This is retribution, they deserve to turn their backs!" Qian Zhengle rubbed his wrists, Qingfeng Village was attacked by the Yuan army, at least their strength was greatly damaged, and it is estimated that there will be no more ambush plans under the defeat, and the road behind will be much safer.

They had always been worried that Wu Sheng of Qingfeng Village would make a move after learning of the Yishui Incident first, and they had also been worried that they might be intercepted or attacked by Wu Sheng on the way to Yishui, so the speed of the march slowed down greatly after entering the mountain, and all the departments were vigilantly watching the movements on both sides of the mountain road, always ready to deal with the sudden attack. Now hearing the news, everyone is really overjoyed.

Yu Zhilong hurriedly called the few escaped cottage people into the account and asked them carefully.

It turned out that Wu Sheng and the others took the materials they had obtained to the three forks to meet Wei Bao, and everyone was elated when they met. Later, a messenger came from Yishui, saying that Zhao Shi and Shi Zebo successfully took Yishui. The crowd was even more happy. According to Wu Sheng's calculations, the road up the mountain was rugged and difficult, and he couldn't take away so many captures at one time, so he left Wei Bao to continue to guard, and as for the prisoners in the village, he only waited for Zhao Shi to lay down Yishui and hand it over to Zhilong to decide. Wu Sheng led the rest of the men and horses and some of the baggage back to the mountain happily.

Before leaving, Wu Sheng sent people to report back to the cottage and Yishui Shi Zebo, detailing the victory of Linqu, especially the letter to warn Shi Zebo: This Jing'an army is not like an ordinary rebel strongman, and it is unwise to deal with it, and this time it has captured a lot, enough for a year in the village, it is better to continue to make friends for a long time.

On the way up the mountain, Wu Sheng was still thinking about the follow-up, but Pan Biao was excitedly immersed in several battles with the Yidu Yuan army all the way, and he was happy!

What Wu Sheng thought, the soldiers below didn't know, but when the brigade was halfway there, the road was narrow, the trees and grasses beside the road were luxuriant, and everyone was unprepared. Wu Sheng was finally injured and broke through under Pan Biao's desperate escort, and at this time there were less than four hundred people around him!

During the breakout, Wu Sheng, Pan Biao and others saw clearly, and there were even their own brothers in the cottage among the attacking officers and soldiers.

"Are you crazy? How can you be willing to be an eagle dog with the Tartar army? Pan Biao was furious, and while swinging his knife to slash the besieging Yuan army, he opened his eyes angrily and asked sharply. He recognized that many people were still familiar to him in the village, and they had also drunk and farted every day.

These cottage brothers who had already joined the Yuan army, seeing Pan Biao's rhetorical question, some were ashamed, hesitated and retreated slightly, and no longer moved forward. After all, there is some friendship, and now that he has taken refuge in the Yuan Court, he and his old brothers have drawn their swords and suddenly attacked, which is really bad for the morality of the rivers and lakes.

"Those who retreat from the battle, slash!" A Han army under a thousand households wielded a knife and slashed down two hesitant original Qingfeng village soldiers, obliquely raised the blood-dripping steel knife, pointing at Pan Biao and others, "There is an order on the peak, kill a thief, reward three taels of silver, put one person, and the same as the thief!" If you don't try your best to move forward, do you want to try my family's military law? ”

After speaking, he turned back to the person who followed him and said: "Thousands of households, although you have the merit of offering the village. However, the thief chief has not been captured, in front of him is the thief leader Wu Sheng, the thief head Pan Biao, and the capture of these two people is exactly the merit of the two of us! ”

Yan Ming has been hiding behind, listening to his urging, and scolding in his heart, but he has completely turned his face with Shi Zebo, and there is no way out. The day before yesterday, he attracted his henchmen, did the internal response, the cottage gate was opened, thousands of yuan troops swarmed in, almost the remaining people and so on to capture and kill, the second village master Murphy did not escape, thousands of families in the village, subordinates, all those who did not return to the Yuan court, were all executed, for a while the blood in the village flowed into a river, the corpses were all thrown into the cliff of the back mountain, the scene was so miserable that the words that had been prepared in the heart did not dare to witness.

Before Murphy was sentenced, he scolded, the Yuan general was angry, and people poked his mouth with a knife, Murphy was still angry and disgusted, and the mouth was full of sounds, and the Yuan general ordered him to cut his tongue again, and Murphy finally couldn't speak, spit on it with blood, and his words were unprepared, and his face was stained with a ball of blood foam, and he had no choice but to hide his face with his sleeves and retreat speechlessly.

Purging all the people who resisted the rebellion in the cottage, I thought that the official army would go home, but suddenly ushered in a messenger sent by Wu Sheng, claiming that the Jing'an army had taken Yishui City, Linqu and then won the official army, and Wu Sheng and others were carrying countless baggage captured on the way back to the mountain. Mr. Sun frowned slightly, and then offered a plan to the leading generals.

Since Shi Zebo and Wu Sheng returned from the mountain, and they didn't know anything about the changes in the cottage, it was better to take advantage of this attack and then break the thieves or capture the thief chieftain, and the credit would never be less than the merit of breaking the village.

Yuan General Wanhu was moved, interrogated the messenger, asked the way back, summoned Yanming, and inquired about the surrounding geography. Yan Ming's heart was horizontal, and he offered his plan again, choosing a place where the trees were lush and the road was narrow, the Yuan army made a big move, ambushed on both sides of the road, and waited for Wu Sheng and others to be unconscious, and after they entered the road, they continued to sound cannons and kill from both sides.

Mr. Sun greatly praised a few words and acted according to the plan.
