Far away from the mountains and wilderness of Zhaojiazhai,

Zhao Zizhi triumphantly rode on a tall purple horse, a memento snatched from the leader of a clan he had fired; In my heart, I was reminiscing and comparing the tastes and feelings of the women in their respective families before the leaders of the several soil groups who tried to unite in private.

In the process of escaping all the way, he did not rush to escape back to Zhaojiazhai, but took the opportunity to merge with several other Tutuans on the grounds of gathering and deliberating; After killing dozens of leaders, he robbed and occupied the territory of several other families, and reappointed the big leaders who occupied and managed the affairs, and then returned to his village with a full harvest including several female dependents.

In particular, Ma Qianzhu, the owner of Majiazhuang in the neighboring county, relied on the fact that someone in his family was doing business on the sea route and had a lot of financial resources, and he had an unclear relationship with those smugglers. Even relying on the 800 troops and family members who were better equipped, they deliberately competed with him for the dominance of this Tutuan coalition army, and privately co-opted those officers and soldiers who cooperated in the war, trying to find another way to make friends.

So in the end, after he did not hesitate to merge the other party's forces and kill all his cronies and subordinates, he left Ma Qianzhu alone; Then tied to the flagpole and watched as he finally tricked him into opening the door of the village and slaughtering the remnants of the Ma family. and pressed the women of the Ma family, regardless of age, young, beauty, ugliness, and relatives, in front of him one by one, and threw them into the pile of people under him.

It's a little tricky when he fights that Nanjia Tunzi, don't look at his family, he can only bring out a small number of more than 200 people, but it is worthy of being said to be the descendants of the relatives of the former Huaiyang Yishi Nanba; The old and young with a strong legacy went to the wall with guns and sticks, and it took more than 100 dead and wounded under his command to take it down, so this tunzi was not left behind, but directly let go of this group of new and old men to burn and kill, and directly washed it into a ruin and escorted the surviving women.

Although he is known for being a rough and ruthless ruthless man, he is not a real man in his bones; At least those who think so have either become dry bones in a water dungeon, or have become nameless abandoned corpses in the wilderness of violent corpses. And Zhao Renxian Zhao Dazhai's biggest ability is to turn all kinds of bad things and unfavorable situations into results that are beneficial to himself.

Whether it was the state Sima who was sent down to investigate and deal with his lawlessness before, or the water thief who once said cruel words to make him unable to get water in his life, they have all become a stepping stone for the Zhao family to override the county and countryside in his private means and operations.

Obviously, this time will not be an exception, the men and horses who have come through the fire and gathered under his command have reached fifteen or six hundred, although most of them have been temporarily stabilized by him by means of co-optation and bribery, and even made some more favorable conditions for this; But as long as he returned to the Zhao family's village, he had a way to concoct and clean them up one by one; Who calls himself a good Zhao Dashan who does what he says, if he eats and uses his own, he must spit it out twice as much to pay it back.

After all, now even the two neighboring counties are not able to exist with Zhaojiazhai for a long time, compared with the future officials and the road to the seal, it will be simpler and easier; After all, those township party armed forces that can be relied on by the officials and soldiers who are obviously a little lacking in strength, only his family is the only one left, and who can he take?

As for the hard stubble grass thieves in the county, they are no longer in a hurry to clean up and solve them; His immediate task is to take this opportunity to expand his own power, and then bargain with the government for a better farewell; If there were no grass thieves, relying on these soldiers and horses under him alone would be a slap in the face.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but pull the dredging skin that had been left by the night knock, and showed a certain reserved smile; Such a smile attracted the attention of Zuo Jinren and others, and they couldn't help but ask each other.

"Is there any joy in the owner of the village?"

Zhao Ziri couldn't help but glance at the other party, but it was a relative nicknamed "Dog". The other party was an ordinary low-class farmer, but because he passed by his house to drink water when he went out hunting, he reluctantly took his mother-in-law and sister-in-law to vent his anger when he was out hunting, and then he was promoted to be a follower by his side; And this guy is also proud, proudly declaring everywhere, "If you haven't slept with the owner of the village, how can you be regarded as your own person."

"There's nothing to do, just thinking about asking for an official."

He waved his hand disappreciatively

"It's been all these days, and it's time to hear from it."

"When the time comes, you will also be my decency and pomp, this appearance will not work"

Speaking of this, he reassured and encouraged in disguise

"It's a must, you have to buy some corresponding robes and outfits."

"That's great."

"It's wonderful."

And in the impatient flattery, Gou Er, nicknamed "Dog", was the first to follow, which was a beautiful association; In the future, if the owner of the village becomes a big official in the state, won't he be able to enter the public gate with a rising tide, and be a majestic team leader, inspector or something, which is also the maximum limit of what he can see and imagine;

When I thought that in the future, I could stand in front of those electricity prices in front of the state capital with a chain in one hand and a whistle stick in the other, and order them to bring out good wine and meat to entertain, and even call out my wife and sister to sit together, I felt that my saliva could not stop falling.

It's not more enjoyable than working hard to go to the countryside to urge the department to catch the service, and to wrestle and entangle with those foolish and cunning mud legs, but it is just a lot of tedious and tiring food and foot money.

Of course, they didn't notice that some of the trees on the low hills they passed had been lowered horizontally, and that some people continued to hide in the bushes and spy on them, while the reflection of the bronze mirror passed on a brief message to the nearby hills.

After half a ring, he vaguely appeared in his career, but Zhao Jiazhai, who was devastated and slightly smoking, suddenly made Zhao Ziri's good mood suddenly disappear and become anxious. Especially when he faintly looked at the Zhao family's dock on the mountain, which had been blackened by the color of the fireworks, he couldn't help but feel a breath of stuffiness in his chest, and he was so sad that he was about to vomit blood. That's where all his net worth and generational savings are, and there are hundreds of women who have been occupied by many relatives and various names.

Although Zhaojiazhai was not attacked and harassed by foreign forces such as water thieves and barbarians because of its proximity to the mountains and rivers, and even once relied on internal and external cooperation to break the fence and plunder a lot of people and goods, but most of the time there were only those villagers who were killed or injured; Relying on the Zhao family's mansion, which is generally difficult to conquer on the mountain, the fundamental forces and interests of the Zhao family and their subordinates have never really suffered any decent losses.

Anyway, it doesn't matter how many deaths and injuries there are among those weed-like villagers, as long as some are re-recruited and arrested afterwards; Because there is an endless stream of homeless people and deserters in this world, the fields under the name of the Zhao family are always yellow, and if it is really not good, you can take advantage of the origin of the weapon to go to the neighboring township to find it back; The Zhao family, as a relative of the owner of the village, can use this name to justifiably train and gather armies, and step by step become bigger and arbitrary;

You must know that the wall made of broken stone was levied a large amount of money and grain in the name of local self-protection in the name of local self-protection after the latest village was broken, and a large amount of money and grain was levied on every household in the four miles and eight townships, and the men, women, and children of the whole village were mobilized to go to the river and the mountains to pick up stones and dig river mud.

Moreover, even if he took away most of the villagers in the village who were used as Tutuan, there were still at least nearly a thousand Ding Zhuang who had experience in fighting weapons in the past, plus the hundreds of clansmen and Tutuan soldiers in the Zhao family's mansion, it was enough to resist one or two or protect themselves in the face of foreign intrusion; How did you become like this again?

It's just that the person who reported in front of him said that the gate of Zhaojiazhai was still open, and a lot of messy things and footprints were left everywhere; This can't help but make Zhao Ziri feel a little relieved, it seems that those forces who don't know whether they are barbarians or thieves know that they can't hold it for a long time after robbing Zhaojiazhai and give up, so the village is also a lifeless and calm and quiet for the rest of their lives.

This also made Zhao Ziri feel a little lucky and expectant, maybe the Zhao family's mansion can be kept intact, and those traces of excesses are just evidence of the other party's futility.

Because they were worried about what happened to their families, the subordinates of the front team couldn't wait to rush into the village, but they left Zhao Ziri behind. When they ran, they also completely crowded and scattered the elongated brigade of men and horses, which could barely maintain the formation, and even Zhao Ziri's loud shouting could not be restrained, because some of the leaders of the soil group under his command were already mixed with the crowd that rushed into the village.

In the originally empty stockade, there was a sudden explosion of earth-shattering shouts of killing, which suddenly startled Zhao Ziri's mount under his crotch and threw him to the ground; And the originally empty wall was also planted with dense cyan flags and countless figures waving flags and shouting.

When he turned around and got up again, he saw that in the originally congested walled gate, there were people who ran out again with their lives, but it was the leader who ran in before; It looked like their boots and hats had run off, and they were so embarrassed that they were faintly shouting as they fled

"Run away."

"Yes. . . Ambush... ”

Then, the shouters were nailed to the ground from behind by an arrow, and they could no longer get up.

Immediately, as if some kind of echo of the horse's hooves shook, a team of grass thieves and horses with green flags came out of the other gate, and made a chase and interception against the remnants of them who were still outside the stockade.

And in the grass on the other side of the river, there was also a sudden rise and a well-armored ambush came out, and a rain of arrows flew towards them, and the earth groups gathered by the river suddenly fled again in a whimpering cry.

Look at the old and new subordinates who are too busy to abandon themselves and flee in all directions.

"It's over"

Zhao Ziri only felt that his hands and feet were weak and his whole body was cold, and after vomiting out a mouthful of sweet smell, he lost the ability to speak and act next, and could only crawl on the back of the horse and let the last few cronies run out with their lives in tow.
