Beyond the harbor is a large cluster of haphazard buildings.

The pirates had neither the ability nor the heart to design a proper place to live, and the houses were built haphazardly, without kilns for bricks, and were either hewn out of stone or made of logs.

There are some arrow towers along the foot of the mountain, as well as open wooden fences, which are also specially set up for fear of officers and soldiers running to sneak attack, of course, pirates are much more confident than officers and soldiers, and the defense here is very ordinary, and there is not much feeling of putting officers and soldiers in their eyes.

It is also related to the terrain, it is quite difficult to climb the mountain from the north, and it is even more difficult to descend the mountain, there are only a few rugged and winding paths, and the rest of the place is either shrubs or rocks, and it is also quite difficult to sneak down the mountain quietly.

There were not many people at dawn, Lu Wenxian glanced at it a few times, and did not notice any obvious changes, took out the food box from the person, the clear water, and everyone received it separately, although he climbed the mountain in the middle of the night, his appetite was not good, and he still tried his best to be full to maintain his physical strength and spirit.

At the end of the hour, there was a lot of light, there were no ships coming on the sea, and there was no sign of a large number of pirates coming, Lu Wenxian was a little relieved, and smiled at everyone: "It seems that Chen Yutai has suffered such a loss this time, and he can only endure it." ”

"I'm afraid it's hard." A staff member shook his head and said: "Chen Yutai has always been kind to his brothers, this person kills people without blinking, but he pushes food and undresses his brothers, I heard that his family is poor, and he has taken care of his brothers as an eldest brother since he was a child, and now he has died of a younger brother. ”

The staff's words aroused everyone's approval, and Lu Wenxian also felt reasonable, so he had to press his temper and continue to observe.

After a while, there was finally movement, and a trumpet was heard, and then a thousand pirates came out of their dwellings and flocked around a large house in the middle.

The commander of Shangzhai often observes the situation here, and at this time pointed to the mansion in the middle and said: "That is Chen Yutai's residence." ”

Lu Wenxian said, "Have you ever thought about firing a cannon to hit him?" ”

The commander of Shangzhai shook his head and said: "Those cannons were cast during the Taizu period, and the distance between them is not more than 200 steps, what is the use?" Although it is close, it is still more than 2,000 steps away. ”

Lu Wenxian understood and said: "Artillery, Taizu praised its benefits during the Taizu period, but after hundreds of years, it has not felt stronger than the bed crossbow. The cannon body is heavy, the loading is slow, the movement is not easy, although the bombardment is terrifying, the cannon scatters and kills a lot, but it is rarely fatal, in terms of speaking, it is really not as good as a bed crossbow. ”

The commander of Shangzhai nodded and said: "During the Taizu period, there was also a discussion of making firearms, and there were also guns, which were only thirty or forty steps, and the strength could not pierce the armor, not to mention that compared with crossbows, even bows were not as good. It's easy to get started, and now some village soldiers are using firearms, which are extremely loud, and it's good to scare thieves. ”

At this time, there was a humanitarian: "The people are gathered." ”

The crowd stopped talking, and concentrated on the situation on the side of the Qishan thieves.

At this time, Lu Wenxian and others realized that on the ground a few miles away, the crowd was dressed in white, or wearing linen and filial piety.

Even Chen Yutai, who came out of the mansion and was surrounded by everyone, was the same, all dressed in white.

At this time, the sound of the trumpet became miserable, and there were even more crying, and many women with children were wailing and crying, and the tone was extremely miserable.

Lu Wenxian snorted and said, "They are embarrassed to cry, they don't want to think about how many hurtful things their men have done outside, and how many people have been ruined." ”

Everyone agreed, so when they listened to the cry, they didn't feel miserable, but happy.

When the trumpets stopped, dozens of sturdy pirates dug a deep pit in a corner of the plain, and some put robes and the like into coffins, and buried them in coffins.

"I see." Lu Wenxian came to his senses and said: "Today should be Chen Yuyong's first seventh, it seems that he was buried with a mound of clothes." ”

Lu Wenxian was just about to turn around and go down the mountain, but he saw hundreds of pirates lined up in front of Chen Yutai, each holding a bowl of wine standing, and then everyone pulled out their pocket knives and cut their arms with knives, and the blood flowed like an infusion, and soon half a bowl of blood was shed, and everyone, including Chen Yutai, drank the blood wine.

Next, the bowl was thrown to the ground, and even on the cliff a few miles away, the sound of the bowl could be clearly heard.

"It's broken." Lu Wenxian's face changed greatly, and he said: "It seems that he is determined to take revenge, and his determination is not small. ”

"We're going to step up our guard." The commander of Shangzhai looked solemn and said, "In case it comes to sneak attack." ”

"Yes." Lu Wenxian said: "On the side of the Hou Shizi of Nan'an, I heard that a battalion of Jiangfang battalions was sent, but I don't think it is a long-term solution, and it is impossible for a battalion of soldiers to always guard the Hou Mansion." Moreover, the number of a battalion of the Xiang army is uncertain, but it cannot exceed 1,000 people, how can a battalion of soldiers stop the Qishan bandits? That is, to drag it out, waiting for other river defense battalions, as well as the city defense battalion of Fucheng to come out and save ......"

The commander of Shangzhai is a rough and straight soldier, and he said at the moment: "This is wiping your ass with a knife, it's mysterious." ”

Lu Yongxian smiled and said, "I see that Chen Yutai is dizzy, and he won't come to us to vent his hatred." However, the vigilance should still be on guard, these days send more people to the mountains to investigate and patrol, as soon as there is a movement, quickly report the news, and then the official will report to the capital city, be more careful in everything, it is always right......"

Shangzhai commanded: "We're okay here, the prince of the Hou Mansion is in trouble, look at it, what should he do?" ”

Lu Wenxian smiled and said: "Two generations of Nan'an Hou are related to the Qishan bandits, when the old marquis was here as the defense envoy, the official has not yet been transferred, and now the prince of the Hou Mansion is working with Chen Yutai again, it must be the old marquis who has explained." We don't have to worry about this, just wait for the news with peace of mind. ”

Everyone present knows that this Lord Zhizhou is a person who has no responsibility, if he changes to forge ahead, I am afraid that he will draw up a plan, once the Qishan thieves are dispatched, they will immediately send troops to level the village and burn down its port, which will also be a big blow to the Qishan bandits, but the one in front of him is estimated to be passable, not to seek no success, but to seek no fault.

Since Shangguan is like this, everyone doesn't have to worry too much, but the commander of Shangzhai is the person Xu Yingbin used back then, and he has also seen Xu Zixian, and he can't help but muttered in his heart, the prince met when he came to Shangzhai, but the appearance of an ordinary gentleman, unexpectedly a few years have passed, and he is so promising, but he doesn't know when he will have a chance, meet him face to face, and see what the prince looks like now!

……

When Lu Wenxian went to Qishan to move, Xu Zixian also left the courtyard, accompanied by Li Yi and Qin Dongyang, and the three of them went out in official robes, very cautious.

Xu Zixian wore a four-grade red robe, with a silver belt around his waist and a silverfish bag tied to it, which was also an ornament only for officials above the fourth grade. Then put on the four-grade solid color red robe, wearing a soft foot hood, stepping on official boots, his figure is tall, his face is fair, after wearing this body, the prestige of the Han official is fully displayed.

This dress, not to mention the little sister, Xiuniang and the others were very happy to see it, and the pulp washing women in the courtyard had to take a few more looks.

Recently, there has been a noticeable increase in the number of people sprinkling and sweeping in the courtyard, and there have also been more gardeners and vegetable farmers.

Li Yi personally promoted, the six village heads are very effective, the most important thing is that Kong He found out all the hidden households, and a few Xiucai who passed the last assessment as helpers, divided the surrounding households of the official village into districts, took turns to go on duty, and most of the people who served in the turn continued to be arranged to serve in several nearby towns, and the income obtained could be used to remove the cost of food, which was regarded as a moral policy.

Previously, when Li Cheng was there, every family had to serve for him, and most of them were more than forty days, and they didn't care about food, Li Cheng negotiated the price with the nearby commercial bank, and the merchant paid Li Cheng directly, and didn't even care about the food.

That is to say, those who serve in the service not only have to work hard to make money, but also have to pay for food themselves.

Even so, everyone is happy, because the taxes of this dynasty are too heavy, and the forty-day Houfu forced labor is in a few nearby towns, and the forced labor of the government is difficult to say, Bao Buqi will go to Qizhou to repair the military village, or go to the express shop to deliver a letter, and run to Guangzhou, back and forth for more than forty days, and get an epidemic or something on the way, it is not worth dying outside.

Xu Zixian also sighed, no wonder Li Cheng's small role was favored by Chen Yutai, who firmly grasped the main and hidden households of the local official village, and also choked everyone's pulse.

Once he gets rid of the status of the official Zhuang household, it will be miserable, so no one dares to offend him.

Thinking about it this way, the taxes paid by this dynasty are really amazing, no wonder with the wealth of the place, there are five or six large towns with nearly 10,000 or more 10,000 inhabitants within 30 miles of the vicinity alone, and there are merchants and factories everywhere, and the people are still living in considerable embarrassment.

From the second gate to the gate, more than 20 craftsmen from the head of several villages are removing the mold and rot of the wooden doors, windows, wooden stakes, etc., and then repairing and applying lacquer, so that the weather is different from before.

Looking around the courtyard wall, there are also some people who are mending the broken places, removing the dead flowers and trees, and planting fresh ones.

Several village leaders personally raised the tune around and shouted loudly to people not to be lazy.

Of course, these things did not cost a few dollars, and although many of the people who came were craftsmen who had served in the Ding Labor, no one dared to say a word when they went to the other courtyard to do three or five days of work.

Of course, Xu Zixian will not be infamous, he will confess, pay the salary, and provide food and food, this order, the reputation of the prince of benevolence will spread immediately.

Originally, after Li Cheng, Chen Yuyong and others were killed, dozens of pirate heads were displayed outside the courtyard.

The countrymen are timid, seeing such a scene, many rumors are that the world is very powerful, and at the same time, it also makes Xu Zi's image hideous, and then pass it on, I am afraid that I will be able to stop the child from crying at night.

Do more benevolent things, and change your image, at least don't make people feel scared when they mention it.

Li Yi, Qin Dongyang and others were also waiting at the door for a long time, and everyone didn't know what Xu Zixian was doing, but they also knew that the matter was important, and even Wu Weisan, Jin Baoyi and others also changed into military attache robes from Jiupin on their bodies.

The military attaché's robe is narrowed with cuffs, narrowed neckline, and the hem is raised above the knee, which does not affect horseback riding and drawing a bow and archery, and looks quite neat and crisp.

There is a horn belt around the waist, there is a hook, you can hang swords, kettles, iron lunch boxes and other things, now it is not a war to fight, but you don't have to bring too many cumbersome things, the tooth generals only wear the barrier knife, and some people wear the knife on the body.

On the top of the head is a leather Fan Yangjia-style hat, decorated with red tassels, and you can also wear a hood, as you like.
