Chapter 5 The Brave Tiger and Wolf Sweep the Evil Thief

Section 4 Thousands of households in Wenzhou

In the evening of the same day, Zhao Kaishan rushed to the Shahe ferry with the soldiers of the Huben Division, and brought back six captives from Lishan Cottage.

After Zhao Kaishan settled his subordinates, he immediately took those captives to find Liu Yunwei, recounted the battle of Lishan, and then said: "Big brother, these are the tongues I left behind, do you want to hand them over to the prisoners for interrogation?" ”

Liu Yunwei looked at the prisoners, and saw that they were all frightened, and they didn't take it seriously, so he said casually: "Okay, just leave it to the prisoners to deal with." ”

When Zhao Kaishan heard this, he was about to ask his soldiers to take a few prisoners out, and suddenly one of the prisoners shouted: "The general spares his life, the villain has an important military situation to tell, please let the general surround my life!" ”

When Liu Yunwei heard this, he hurriedly stopped Zhao Kaishan and the others, and then asked the captive, "What military information do you have to say?" Don't try to get by! ”

Seeing this, the captive hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "Back to the general's words, the villain does not dare to deceive the general, everything the villain said is true." ”

"Then let's talk about it."

The captive said: "General, here's the thing: the villain is a spy of the cottage, and not long ago, the owner of our village sent the villain to this Shahe crossing to hand over a letter to a group of people. By the time the villain arrived, the gang had already arrived, and he handed him a letter. ”

Liu Yunwei listened to the captive's words, and thought to himself: "It seems that this group of people and horses are the people of the Wenxiang Sect, and that letter is probably to make these bandits delay the march of our army." ”

Just as he was thinking about it, the captive said, "General, when the villain got the letter and went to the cottage, he found that there was something wrong with the letter, because ordinary letters are very light, but the letters I got were a little heavy. So, the villain put the letter in the sun and took a photo, it didn't matter, the villain really found something unusual! ”

Zhao Kaishan, who was next to him, saw that the captive seemed to be telling a story, and couldn't help but shout: "If you have something, hurry up!" ”

As soon as the captive heard Zhao Kaishan reprimanding him, he immediately shivered, and hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, the villain said it quickly." The villain looked at the letter in the sunlight, and saw that in addition to a stack of stationery, there was also a small object in the envelope, like a statue of Maitreya Buddha. ”

At this time, Zhao Kaishan seemed to remember something, took out a small Buddha statue from his arms, and said to the captive: "Is this thing?" ”

"Yes! That's it. ”

After Zhao Kaishan saw that the captives were confirmed, he handed over the small Buddha statue to Liu Yunwei and said, "Big brother, this is what I found in the Lishan cottage. ”

Liu Yunwei nodded, looked at the small Buddha statue in his hand carefully, and then asked the captive, "Do you know what this is for?" ”

The captive said: "Back to the general's words, the villain didn't know at first, but after the villain returned to the cottage, I heard the owner of the village say: This little Buddha statue is a token of the Wenxiang Sect to mobilize his men." Because the people and horses under the Wenxiang Sect are very complicated, there are ordinary sect members, bandits from all walks of life, there are armed forces in the sect, I heard that there are also officials and soldiers, and people from all walks of life do not know each other, so the Wenxiang Sect made a small Buddha statue as a token, so as not to make a misunderstanding because their own people do not recognize each other. ”

When Liu Yunwei heard this, he immediately had a plan in his heart: "This is a good thing, when dealing with the Wenxiang Sect, maybe it can be of great use." ”

At this moment, Liu Yunwei suddenly remembered what the captive had just said, and hurriedly asked, "What did you say just now?" The Wenxiang Sect still has the official army in its hands? Do you know where the officers and soldiers are, and whether this information is reliable? ”

The captive nodded and said: "Back to the general's words, the Wenxiang Sect does control the official army, this matter is already an open secret in our cottage, otherwise our village owner would not obey the Wenxiang Sect, they can mobilize the official army to destroy us at any time." ”

Hearing this, Liu Yunwei and Zhao Kaishan were shocked in their hearts: "It seems that this Smelling Fragrance Sect is really not simple, and there is still a hand!" ”

The captive continued: "As for the officers and soldiers of the army, the villain does not know. As soon as he finished speaking, the captive suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said, "Ah! By the way, when the villain checked the letter, he vaguely saw the words on the stack of letters. ”

When Liu Yunwei heard this, he immediately took the map next to him, looked at it carefully, and then said to Zhao Kaishan: "Wenshang County!" It's on the road to Yuncheng. ”

Zhao Kaishan also looked at the map and said, "But big brother, what if we don't go to Wenshang County?" Wouldn't it be enough to get around? ”

"Humph!" Liu Yunwei sneered and said, "There's no need! This time, I am ready to uproot the forces of the Wenxiang Sect, so we will go to this Wenshang County. It's okay that there are no problems with the defenders in Nawen, if there is a problem, I will clean them up together! ”

Liu Yunwei looked at the captive and said, "This person's news is still useful, lock it up first, and hand it over to the local government after the war is over." ”

After saying that, the soldiers on the side took all the prisoners down. And Liu Yunwei said to Zhao Kaishan: "Kaishan, you go and tell Po Lu and ask him to send someone to Wenshang County to check on it, focusing on checking the situation of the defenders in Wenshang." ”

"Yes, big brother." Zhao Kaishan asked again: "By the way, big brother, then should we wait for the prisoner to find out before leaving?" ”

"Nope! Time is running out, so we'll continue to set off early tomorrow morning. ”

The words were divided into two ends, and just when Liu Yunwei was about to continue to Wenshang County, Chen Qianhu in Wenshang County was also worried.

Not long ago, Chen Qianhu received a letter from Xu Hongru, in which Xu Hongru ordered Chen Qianhu to find a way to solve a Liaodong soldier and horse with a battalion number of Hanwei Battalion, and then throw this black pot to the bandits of Jima Mountain not far from Wenshang County.

Chen Qianhu kept walking around the room with this letter, extremely irritable in his heart, thinking, "What does this Xu Hongru want to do?" In the past, it was just enough to fool those fools and fools and cheat some money, but now it's better that they have actually engaged in the act of intercepting and killing officers and soldiers! Do you still want to put up a banner and become the emperor in the future? ”

Thinking of this, Chen Qianhu was stunned for a moment, and then a very terrifying idea came to mind: "If you can't get it right, then Xu Hongru really wants to pull the pole and pull the flag!" Does he have the strength? I don't want to be a martyr without knowing it. ”

But after thinking about it, his wife and children, all of whom were under the control of the Yuncheng Smelling Fragrance Sect, Chen Qianhu was suddenly like ashes, and said secretly: "That's it, if I don't listen to that Xu Hongru, it is estimated that it will be destroyed in a few days, in that case, I might as well die directly, it seems that there is only one way to go to the dark." ”

Thinking of this, Chen Qianhu called a few hundred of his subordinates, and after a few of his subordinates arrived, Chen Qianhu closed the doors and windows and discussed secretly with everyone. This night, the lights in Chen Qianhu's house were not extinguished all night.

In the second half of the night, Chen Qianhu and several of his hundreds of households finished discussing, and everyone dispersed. One of the hundred households saw that it was late at night, so he thought about not going home, and found someone to drink some wine to pass the time, and just go directly to arrange the tasks assigned by Chen Qianhu after dawn. So, this hundred households found their drinking friend: Liu Dianguan from Wenshang County.

Hundreds of households arrived at Liu Dian's house, got a few snacks and drank them. Although this hundred households often drink with Liu Dian, the amount of alcohol is really not very good, and they are often drunk by Liu Dian. It's the same this time, the two of them are chatting and drinking wine, the wine has not passed the three rounds, the food has not passed the five flavors, and the hundred households are already eyes and drunk.

At this moment, the hundred-fold man said inarticulately: "Brother Liu, Brother Liu, you and I have the deepest friendship on weekdays, and first, we have always been good brothers." Today, my brother advises you to buy a Buddha at home as soon as possible, and it will be very useful in a short time. ”

When Liu Dianguan heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "Haha, my brother said that I was laughing, how can the people in our official mansion believe in the Smelling Fragrance Sect?" They are fools and fools. ”

"Hey! You, don't listen to me, something big will happen in a few days, and then the Hanwei camp will be cleaned up by our adults, and this, this Shandong will be the world of the Wenxiang Sect. Why don't you hurry up and worship the Buddha and the Buddha, and save yourself from regretting it! ”

After speaking, the hundred households fell to the side drunk, and Liu Dian's hair exploded when he heard it: "Could it be that the Wenxiang Sect is going to make trouble?" I have long heard that Chen Qianhu and Wenxiang Sect have always been unclear, and I have always regarded it as a rumor, is it true? ”

So, Liu Dian's official called the subordinates of the family and asked him to put on a donkey cart and send the hundred households home; He called his wife and repeated what Baihu had just said.

The husband and wife summed up for a while, and they both felt that what the hundred households said should be the truth, so they were all shocked. Liu Dianguan said: "I don't know where the Hanwei camp mentioned by the hundred households is, why does the Wenxiang Church regard it as a thorn in the side?" ”

His wife thought for a moment and said: "Husband, I heard from the traveling merchant on the street that this Hanwei battalion was originally an officer and soldier in Liaodong, and it was very heroic to fight with Jiannu Hugou during the war of the country and dynasty a while ago, and they were all loyal ministers and good generals who defended the country; Moreover, the grandfather and father of his lord all sacrificed their lives for the country, which shows that his lord will be a loyal martyr. Since the husband knew that the Wenxiang Sect was going to harm the soldiers of the Hanwei Camp with Chen Qianhu, he had to find a way to inform them, otherwise wouldn't he be as disloyal and unrighteous as Chen Qianhu? ”

After listening to his wife's words, Liu Dianzhi felt very reasonable. So he said goodbye to his wife overnight and came to the East City Gate to find his brother-in-law Jiang Wentian, who was guarding the East City Gate. The two discussed for a while in Jiang Wentian's gate, and Liu Dianzhi hurried out of the city alone.

Early the next morning, when the city gate of Wenshang County had just been opened, and few of the people in the city had entered or exited, a team of horses quickly left the city without collecting the night and galloped towards the direction of the Shahe River in the east.

At this time, the soldiers of the Hanwei battalion were also under the command of Liu Yunwei, crossing the river by boat at the Shahe Ferry Branch and marching towards Wenshang County.
