Chapter 376: Forming Alliances Everywhere

Cao Meng sent troops with another order from Lu Shi, saying that he couldn't go back when he went home.

According to the analysis of Lu Shi and Zhao Xing, especially Chen Che's intelligence, Yan'an sent troops, and this road must be dominated by the military household guard first, and the deputy general soldier who is stubborn and self-serving is most likely to take the road of Nanniwan in Yan'an, because according to the self-righteous half-bucket water general, in order to compete for merit, he must take the road of sneak attack, and he must be even more so.

So, Lu Shi arranged for Cao Meng to take a small part of the cavalry, as well as the sixth team of spearmen, plus the auxiliary master, to sweep the poles all over Ganquan first, clean up the battlefield for the upcoming big battle, and solve the hidden dangers, which is Cao Meng's main task.

When Cao Meng rushed to Ganquan with his team, he heard that Ganquan sent troops, and it was an independent army, and he was overjoyed at the time, thinking that this time he had just eliminated an enemy in the encirclement and suppression base area, and removed a scourge for the real anti-encirclement and suppression in the future, but the Ganquan thousand households ran away when they saw people, so that they couldn't help but look at the Ganquan city wall and sigh, attacking the county seat, which was strictly forbidden by Lu Shi, first, he didn't want to stimulate the court again, and secondly, he didn't want to lose his brothers, especially those who were left to break through all the way in Mizhi, now, This newly trained army, the cadres above the squad leader, almost all of them are the brothers who broke through, these people not only have no problem with loyalty at all, but also because these are all experienced veterans, this is a seed, a rare seed.

Since he couldn't attack the county seat, he had to hook up the poles in various places, but he didn't want to, so there was a situation like the one above, and he easily completed his task, and now, all he left for himself was three or four large poles to move around.

Cao Meng took the sixth team and his party to the famous pole family, and when he came to the cottage with a gust of wind, he saw the gust of wind with a large group of people and horses waiting in the mountain pass early.

Looking at the sturdy poles and their lively appearance, Cao Meng thought that it would take some twists and turns, because after all, people are generations of poles, and they dare not be careless, so they also set up a position to watch the changes. At this moment, the gust of wind rode out alone, and Pegasus came over, raising his hands and shouting loudly to the side of the Black Tiger Army; "It's the brother of the Black Tiger Village on the other side? I don't know which brother led the team, but the old brother has been waiting here for a long time with a gust of wind. ”

Cao Meng saw a gust of wind raising his hands high, and there was no malice at all with a smile on his face, and he also mentioned the war horse at the moment and arched his hand; "A gust of wind is in charge, Cao Meng, the head of the garrison in Xiachuang Army, has seen the big boss."

A gust of wind laughed and bowed back; "I have long heard that there are three capable generals under King Chuang, a brave and loyal Guo Tianxing, a wise Wu Tao, and a hard-working Cao Meng.

Cao Meng hurriedly stepped forward and said modestly and politely: "Old brother praises, your subordinates take out one at random, aren't they all enemies?" Cao Meng is far from it. No, I led a team to the Ganquan realm, and on the orders of King Chuang and the great commander, I came to greet my elder brother. ”

The gust of wind laughed, and said: "In this case, the elder brother thanks to the concern of the great commander of your family, come on, come on, and drink him faster than the elder brother going up the mountain to drink him." Then he turned back and shouted to the minions behind him;" Little ones, why don't you blow up to greet the brothers who broke into the army? The minions agreed with a bang, and immediately the gongs, drums, cymbals, and cymbals shook the sky, so it was not lively.

When Cao Meng saw it, his heart moved, and he arched his hand again: "Old brother, Cao Meng will go up the mountain with you to ask for a glass of water and wine, but my brothers are all unruly, don't break the rules of my brother's cottage after going up the mountain, and lose face in front of the old brothers and brothers, and ask the old brother to arrange it at the bottom of the mountain, okay?" ”

A gust of wind listened, secretly admired Cao Meng's shrewdness and sophistication, this arrangement came out, this time Cao Meng led the team into the village for fear that he would be too careful, and he was not good at saying clearly, this is to give himself a step, and secondly, he was also afraid that he had some bad intentions to break the army, so it should be unfortunate to leave his army outside the village, with such a shrewd and capable person, how can the army not prosper?

nodded with a smile at the moment; "In that case, then the brothers will camp in the open space over there, and I will order someone to carry down the wine and meat for hospitality in a while."

"Thank you so much, brother." Cao Meng smiled politely, and glanced at the captain of the sixth team, the captain ignored it, and at that time he collected the gun array, beat the snare drum, lined up in a neat queue, walked in a standard step, raised his head and chested the military looked neatly under the leadership of their respective leaders, and walked mightily in front of a gust of wind, neatly uniform black military uniform, sturdy and beautiful rattan armor, snow bright spear, and resolute face, which made a gust of wind gasp in his heart, and did not want the original nameless Woniu Mountain to go through the battle of Mizhi, and then through the Yanchuan breakthrough, there was no slump at all, On the contrary, the momentum is even higher, the military appearance is more neat, and in just a few months, it is so strong, how can you not let yourself be envious and jealous?

Looking back at his subordinates, these are all carefully selected by themselves, although they are also fierce and strong, not to mention the clothing and weapons, how to see what is missing. I saw that my subordinates were salivating for other people's equipment, and I made myself blush, and then looked at the eyes of my subordinates who watched other people's troops, in addition to envy, there was also a faint trace of fear.

Originally, I got a report and said that the army of the Chuang army would come to the village in the near future, so I took the elite of the cottage to the mountain pass with great fanfare, and I wanted to give the army a dismount, but now it seems that it is self-inflicted.

When I saw that the intruders arrived at the designated place, the armored soldiers did not relax within the friendly range, and still habitually spread their vigilance everywhere, and none of the soldiers trembled, and they all began to dig trenches in an orderly manner, bury barricades, and set up tents, and the white-clothed ladies of the army began to bury pots and cook, and a small group of cavalry set up patrol posts on the periphery to patrol back and forth. This completely dispelled the contempt and luck, and I really wanted to talk to the army.

Cao Meng saw that a gust of wind was already full of shock, and there was no intention of showing it, the purpose of his display was achieved, and at the invitation of a gust of wind, he took the initiative to untie his saber with two heralds, handed it to his subordinates in a gust of wind, and beat his horse and followed everyone to the cottage.

Unloading the weapon is not self-surrendering, this is also a rule of sincere worship of the mountain, Cao Meng of course can not lose the courtesy, seeing Cao Meng do this, not to be arrogant, but also to Cao Meng has a good impression.

When he arrived at the cottage, Cao Meng didn't look left and right, so that the owner thought that he was here to listen to the truth, so he was humble with a gust of wind, and directly entered the hall without squinting, which increased the good impression of Cao Meng and the army with a gust of wind.

A gust of wind hall is also much more generous than other pole cottages, almost carved beams and paintings, extremely luxurious in this era, should be displayed in display, are also exquisite, on the back wall, it is not a tiger goshawk to increase the atmosphere, but there is a picture of mountain dwelling hunting, there are no swords, guns, swords and halberds around the hall, the second is the cloth curtain loop, the fruit and tea are delivered, and it is also a group of brightly dressed female dependents, the whole hall, there is no killing atmosphere, Cao Meng just came in, and thought that he had gone to the wrong place, not to a pole base camp, The second is to enter a landlord's living room, which alone has made Cao Meng disdainful.

A gust of wind also saw Cao Meng's doubts, and couldn't help but feel proud, due to several generations of operation, the hall was of course beautiful, but some of the original furnishings were replaced before learning that Cao Meng was coming, and what I wanted was such an effect.

Haha smiled, restrained each other, the two politely spoke, sat down, drank empty tea, and a gust of wind first smiled; "Brother Cao, I should have gone to Guizhai to visit your family Chuang Wang Commander first, to thank him for his kindness last time, but my brother and I are not in good health until now, so I have not been able to make the trip, and I hope that Brother Cao will go back to the descendants of the old brother to apologize, and when I am well, I will personally visit the door to ask for advice."

Cao Meng hurriedly bowed his hand, "The big boss is polite, but you don't dare to visit in person, I thank you in advance on behalf of King Chuang and the Great Commander." You are a senior, it should have been me and the next generation of boys to come to visit my brother, no wonder you came late. ”

With a false humility, Cao Meng smiled and said: "What's more, we are the same way, and we should deal with the officials and the army together, but we should help each other, hahaha." ”

So, the tall hats were sent out one by one, and the bold and honest Cao Meng praised people more happily.

The two of them were so happy and polite, and soon there would be a maid serving wine and meat, the wine and meat were much finer than the army gathering, and the dishes were much richer, and when the dishes were finished, everyone quietly retreated, and the last person also gently brought the hall door, and did not want others to disturb them, the two of them sat down together, and after three rounds of wine, a gust of wind said with a smile; "General Manager Cao, your army's base area is busy, and I heard that the leader of Cao Meng is also responsible for the garrison of the base area, I don't know how Brother Cao has the leisure to come to the old brother?"

Cao Meng saw that he was asking the question, and hurriedly put down his wine glass and said; "Actually, brother, I came to Ganquan Land, but I was invited by the representatives of the people of Ganquan, hoping that we would break into the army and persuade the landlords around the country to reduce rent and interest to cultivate the people's power in the way of Fuxian County.

A gust of wind in the mouth repeatedly praised the benevolence and righteousness of the army, but in the heart is very different, in fact, where is your persuasion, it is clearly forced, but the power is stronger than people, in the face of your strong army, those landlords are strong and strong, and there are also a few landlords who have some business with themselves Hao Qiang found his own words, hoping that everyone will resist your evil government, but according to their own observations, their own strength can not shake the Black Tiger Village at all, so they did not agree to them, and reprimanded them.

These days, watching the Chuang army show off their might in the Ganquan realm, and the other poles are either attached or destroyed, in fact, it is not a taste in my heart. But look at what the army did is not to force the same people into a dead end, a little peace of mind, this time I heard a small report that the army swept away other cottages, the army went straight to their own, and decided to give a warm welcome, by the way, show the military prestige at the negotiation table to ask for a high price, and then there is to talk about it, if you can talk about it, you can also get a strong reinforcement for the army, if you really can't talk about it, then you can break up in two, it's a big deal to break a fish, or simply unite Zhang Yuan, everyone together to destroy the thief, continue to live their own mountain king.
