The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, a team of people and horses quietly marched towards the outside of the mountain, walking in front of the people and horses is a farmer riding a donkey, wearing an old sheepskin jacket, a white handkerchief on his head, holding a sickle in his hand, from time to time whispering to Lu Shi, who is following him on the white horse, introducing the local situation and the details of Chenjiabao.

This is Lu Shi's decision to attack Chenjiazhai tonight, so he took out half of all the elite of the Black Tiger Army, a total of 1,000 men and horses, and let them protect the safety of the old camp left in the valley.

Zhao Xing was very attentive, he did not embarrass and scolded the people caught during the day, and he also shook his tongue and told a lot of truths, such efforts were not in vain, not only to reassure those people, but also as soon as they heard that the Black Tiger Army was going to attack Chenjiabao, several people immediately stood up to lead the way for the Black Tiger Army who eliminated harm for them.

In the end, Zhao Xing carefully screened and chose this man as a guide.

This man kept telling Lu Shi about the miserable situation of the people along the way, and everyone was filled with righteous indignation at that time, and made up their minds that even if they didn't think about their own food and grass, they would take Chenjiabao to avenge the people.

During the conversation, Lu Shi received very useful information.

Now this place is the boundary of Fuxian County in the south of Yan'an Prefecture, this mountain is called Huanglong Mountain, as long as the Huanglong Mountain Range is out, the following will be the endless Weinan Great Plain.

This news made everyone rejoice, and when they arrived, everyone finally came to the Weinan Plain, which is the ultimate place of their strategy.

The next step is to find a foothold, really develop the base in their hearts, lay a foundation in this Ming Dynasty, and prepare for the imminent, real chaos in the world, during this period, Zhou Ji should try to expand the base area, take in the people, the most important thing is to prevent Li Zicheng from disturbing the mountains and Shaanxi, so that there is only destruction, no construction of the soil buns, the big hooligans on the disability of the Han family, for the Han family to retain a vitality, so that in the future with the Manchu Qing Tartars who are eyeing the bloody battle, Stop the tragedy from going backwards in history.

"King Chuang, it's here." The guide called softly, pulled back Lu Shi's infinite reverie, followed the guide's finger, a big mountain was lying in front of his eyes, but there was no trace of the fortress that the guide said, Lu Shi asked the guide in wonder: "Brother, where are you now?" Why didn't I see the fortress? ”

The man was stunned and hurriedly explained: "King Chuang, this is the mountain behind the village, and Chenjiazhai is in front of the mountain, aren't you going to fall down the cliff?" This is the cliff behind the fort. ”

Lu Shi suddenly realized that this was the truth of feelings, or was this person careful, so he said to the dozen or so prison sergeant brothers who followed closely: "Is it here that is the day reconnaissance?" ”

The brothers nodded together and said, "Don't worry, King Chuang, this is exactly here." ”

"Okay, brothers, prepare, I will take the army on a detour and wait for the signal of your success outside Chenjiabao."

"I will live up to the trust of King Chuang." More than a dozen brothers roared in unison. They knew how heavy the burden they had on their shoulders, and if they wanted to open this fortress and find a place for everyone to rest, as well as the much-needed baggage, it depended on whether their surprise attack was successful.

"King Chuang." The guide suddenly jumped off the donkey and hesitated at first, but after a while, he called out to Lu Shidao firmly.

"Brother, do you have any other requirements?" Lu Shi thought that this man had any other requests, but as long as he won this victory, he would agree to any request.

"King Chuang, I can see that you and your brother are really a benevolent and righteous division, I see that your officers and soldiers are equal, I see your attitude towards the old and weak, women and children, I want to join your team."

Looking at Lu Shi's surprised appearance, he immediately added: "I know that there are still a few cottage secret posts on this mountain, I can still take everyone to climb down the cliff, and I can also go to the village to greet the brothers who have great hatred with the Chen family like me, open the gate of the village, please accept me, believe me." ”

Speaking of this, he knelt down on his knees, stared at Lu Shi with his neck straight, and waited for Lu Shi's decision.

This request surprised everyone at the time, this is not a joke, in case this guy is disguised, once he makes a noise during the sneak attack, it will not only be wasted before the sneak attack, but also may take the lives of his brothers in vain, the most terrible thing is that once the sneak attack fails, it will be a strong attack, at that time it is not a problem to capture the cottage, but it will take the lives of many brothers, this is a good brother for the rest of his life.

Lu Shi sat on the horse, leaned over and stared at the man's eyes, and looked at it for a long time without blinking, in the faint moonlight, what Lu Shi saw was the firmness and hatred in those eyes, and the hatred was definitely not for himself and these people, but for the Chen family.

The man saw Lu Shi staring at him for a long time without speaking, when he knocked his head down, he whispered: "King Chuang, my parents and grandparents have farmed for the Chen family for generations, but they can't pay the rent of the Chen family anyway, in the end, my father died tragically on the construction site of the cemetery for the Chen family, my little sister was also robbed into the compound by the Chen family to be an inferior maid, once when I risked death to see him, she no longer had any good skin on her body, and one leg was also crippled, my little sister also said, the owner said, she is useless, It was about to be handed over to the passing traffickers to buy it to the field, the old lady heard it, climbed to the Chen family's mansion to plead, thinking that for the sake of our ancestors for generations to the Chen family as cattle and horses to leave a little sister, but even the gate was not allowed to enter, was bitten alive by a group of hungry dogs, I was helpless to escape from the Chen family village, half a month, I went to many places, want to find a fallen grass brother, for my family to avenge the old and young, but the vast sea of people can not find his news, but the sky is pitiful let me meet the king of Chuang. King Chuang, give a small one a chance to sword the enemy, please, as long as I can kill the enemy, even if I die in the Black Tiger Army, I have no regrets. His shoulders trembled, and suppressed cries kept coming, and it was a cry that was hard to remember, and there was not the slightest false heart-rending cry.

Lu Shi jumped off the war horse, stretched out his hands to support the man, patted him on the shoulder and said, "We are in Woniu Mountain, we have no habit of shedding tears in our Black Tiger Army, only the spirit of bloodshed, how can we be a good warrior when crying like this?" ”

The man was stunned.

"Also, in the future, our Black Tiger Army brothers will not kneel when they see the Heavenly King Laozi, and our knees will only kneel to our ancestral parents."

Lu Shi saw the man's ecstasy, and arched his hand and said, "Please, we'll see you in the old mansion of the Chen family." Then he galloped away with a large group of men.

The man looked at the back of King Chuang in the distance, bent his knees, but straightened up in an instant, and whispered to the dozen or so prison sergeant brothers around him: "Brothers, follow me, up." Then he took the lead and climbed up the mountain.

After all, he was a person who grew up in the local mountains, and climbing the mountain was a familiar road, and more than a dozen prison sergeant brothers followed him and took a lot of detours. While they were climbing, the man suddenly raised one hand, and everyone immediately stopped and lay down on the steep hillside.

The man listened to the faint human voice in the quiet night, suddenly stood up, and shouted loudly at a ridge: "Is it the little dog brother?" ”

This sound scared the prison sergeant brothers who were following him half to death, but the next sentence made the brothers feel at ease.

"I'm Chen San, Chen Laosan, I can't enter the fortress when I come back from chopping wood, so I'll stay here with you for a while, and I'll leave tomorrow at dawn."

Suddenly, there was a sound on the ridge, and the door of a hidden nest opened, and a person came out, looked left and right for a long time, and muttered, "Brother Chen, is it?" Where are you? Don't come in and talk yet? ”

It seems that it is really Chen San's old acquaintance brother, this is a secret agent who was arranged on the back mountain, but he is not alert at all, as long as the acquaintance shouts, he relaxes his vigilance.

Chen San immediately responded: "It's not me yet, I'm thirsty and tired in the middle of the night, *** walked to the front of the village and called the door, and those boys didn't open it, no way, if you want not to freeze to death, you can only go to the mountain to find a nest here, and wait for tomorrow dawn to return to the mountain." ”

The dog saw Chen San at this time, and immediately whispered nervously: "My good brother, you are so bold, don't you know, Master Chen has already decided that you have escaped from the fortress, and the next day he will take someone to pick up your kennel, do you dare to run back?" Come in quickly, today I have to thank that Chen boy for nesting in the village to scourge women, or you will die. Come in, warm and run. ”

Chen San was deliberately taken aback, and said in a panic: "How can this be? I'm just going out—"

"Don't be verbose, come in quickly, I'll have some food in a while, you run quickly, or your life will be gone."

Seeing this, Chen San hurriedly ran into the small cave.

The cave is not big, when Chen San came in, next to the brazier in the middle of the ground, there were a few brothers who were holding knives and guns and just looked up, and then stretched out their hands to bake the fire, without any sense of surprise and vigilance.

The small bed that was leaning in there was just a bed of cotton wool, and there was no one in sight.

"Isn't Chen Tou there?"

The dog who took Chen San paced anxiously and said, "Aren't you harming women in the stockade?" Why don't you still die? As he spoke, he said anxiously to those Mu Ne's brothers: "What kind of fire is still baking, the three brothers Chen are righteous, they were not thin to us in the past, hurry up and take out the food for today and tomorrow, put it on Brother Chen, and then let him run quickly." ”

When the five brothers heard this, although their faces were unbearable, they still stood up, took out the black half-bark half-chaff nest in their arms, and reluctantly piled them together, and then an old man sneered and said: "Chen San, that's all, it's still our two-day food, you take it and run for your life, and when we starve to death, we'll meet at Hades." ”

The dog didn't say a word, took it all, and said while pushing it to Chen San: "That's all, hurry up, the farther you escape, the better, even if you starve to death outside, it is better than suffocating to death here." ”

Seeing that everyone was real, Chen San immediately laughed and said loudly: "Hahaha, since the brothers are so righteous and know that this Chen family is the king of hell, then I will not hide it from everyone, and invite a few brothers to come in and join you to avenge our relatives who died in the hands of the Chen family." ”
