Section 9 Black Wind Village

That night, Little Black Mountain, Black Wind Village.

The hall in the middle of the cottage is full of torches, and in the middle of the hall a large stove is blazing, and a big man is sitting on a tiger skin chair drinking liquor alone. From a distance, the big man was wide, muscular, and the black fur cloak he was wearing, like a huge black bear.

The big man picked up a large piece of roast venison and was about to put it in his mouth, when he looked up and saw a small minion running in quickly, so the big man put down the meat in his hand and said, "Is there any news?" How's things going? ”

The little minion said: "King Qiyu, the three masters have come back and brought back news. ”

"What about the others?"

"The three masters are eating, and they will come to report to the king immediately."

The big man didn't say anything more, picked up the piece of venison and continued to bite it.

After a while, I saw a man who was not tall, but very strong, walked in, wiped the oil from the corner of his mouth with one hand, and said, "King, I'm back." ”

Dahan was already full of wine and food at this time, so he leaned aside and said, "Then let's talk about it, how about the ticket business?" ”

I saw that the three masters snorted their teeth and said, "Hard stubble!" ”

When the big man heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "Isn't it just a defeated army?" Defeated soldiers are also hard stubble? If we seize some horses and weapons, I will pull some more people to the mountain when I turn around, maybe we can still put up a big banner! Ha ha! ”

After speaking, the big man laughed unscrupulously, and the muscles of his body kept trembling, looking unusually strong.

The third master sat down by himself, waited for the big man to finish laughing, and said: "King, I have been following that group of officers and soldiers for the past few days, and after some observation, I feel that they don't look like a group of defeated soldiers, is there something wrong with the news?" ”

Dahan asked, "Why is it not like it?" ”

The third master said: "The group of officers and soldiers is very elite, and there are hundreds of iron horsemen who are extremely brave, and even attacked to chase me at one time, but fortunately they were thrown off by me; In addition, this group of officers and soldiers marched forcibly for several days, and walked hundreds of miles in a few days, but they were still in good spirits. King, this is not like a defeated army, this is clearly a group of elite officers and soldiers! ”

Hearing this, Dahan also fell into deep thought, and after a while, he muttered: "There should be no problems with our inner line in Fuxian, this group of officers and soldiers must be the defeated soldiers who withdrew from Shenyang, but how can there be such a defeated army?" ”

The three masters were also thinking, so the two of them didn't talk for a while. At this time, a thin scholar in his thirties, walked in, saluted the big man and the three masters one by one, and then said: "The king, the three masters, the villain has been ordered to count the amount of money and grain in the cottage." ”

Dahan said: "Master Chen is here, let's talk about it, how much money do we still have?" ”

"Yes." Master Chen took out an account book from his arms, opened it and read: "There are still twenty stones of grain in the cottage, but the forage has basically bottomed out, and the meat has been cut off; In addition, there are not many medicines, iron, and salt left. ”

Dahan frowned, waved his hand, and motioned for Master Chen to go down first. Master Chen looked very shrewd, knowing that the two of them were going to continue to discuss important matters, so he turned around and went out, and closed the door at the door.

After that, Dahan said: "Three masters, you also heard it, it seems that even if we don't want to fight this group of officers and soldiers, we can't do it, and if we wait any longer, the brothers will have to drink the northwest wind." ”

The third master was silent for a while, and said, "In this case, I think we still have to call the second master to discuss it together." After all, there are more than 3,000 people in our cottage, and he has 800 people in his hands, and they are the most elite 800 people. ”

Dahan snorted coldly and said, "Discuss with him?" He was an official soldier before, what if the news leaked out? ”

The third master said: "King, the second master has fallen into the grass and can't go back, how can he leak the news?" If we want to get this wealth, we must be desperate and do our best! ”

"Okay." The big man said, "Call him." ”

After a while, the third master led a man in. I saw that the man was very young, even much younger than the third master, and he was in his twenties; A face full of stubble is full of wind and frost, which sets it off very sophisticated.

"King, the second brother is here." The three masters said.

The big man smiled and said, "Oh? The second master is here. Come, come, sit down, there's something I want to discuss with the two brothers. ”

After the second and third masters were seated, Dahan said: "A few days ago, I received news from the spies, a group of defeated soldiers came to the north, and they will pass through our Black Wind Village in the next two days. The two brothers also know that our cottage is not having a good time now, there are no villages and towns, oil and water around, and the brothers have not paid in for a few days. Master Chen has already come here just now, and told me about our family background, and the cottage will soon be uncovered. Therefore, I decided to gather all the horses in our cottage to go down the mountain to eat this group of defeated soldiers, rob their baggage and open meat for the brothers. What do the two brothers think? ”

As soon as the Han finished speaking, the three masters said: "The king is right, I also agree to eat this group of defeated soldiers, so that not only can we seize grain and grass, but also a lot of horses and weapons, I think we can fight." Second brother, what do you say? ”

The second master did not answer immediately, but pondered for a while, and then said: "King, brother, I want to ask, where did this group of defeated soldiers come from, are they the defeated soldiers who retreated from the army of the imperial court to defeat Jiannu?" ”

Dahan nodded and said, "Yes, the news from the spies said that they came from Shenyang and Liaoyang. ”

"Oh, that's right." The second master was thoughtful, and then asked, "Does the king know how many defeated soldiers there are?" Who will the Lord be? ”

Seeing that the second master didn't say the same thing or disagree, the big man just kept asking this and that, he was already a little impatient, and said angrily: "There are more than 2,000 people, and I only know that the main general's surname is Liu!" ”

The face of the second master changed slightly, but it was fleeting, and then he said: "Well, I will listen to the king, and I will go back to gather people and horses in a while, and listen to the king's orders at any time." ”

"Yes, that's right." Seeing that the second master agreed, Dahan's face eased slightly, and said, "The second master will go back and mobilize his brothers as soon as possible, and wait for my news." ”

The second master answered, got up and left.

After the second boss left, the third boss said: "King, why don't you continue to discuss how to fight this group of defeated soldiers, but directly let the second boss go back and wait for news?" ”

"Humph!" Dahan said, "What to discuss with him?" Let's discuss it and inform him, so as not to tell him in advance that he has leaked the news, and be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years! ”

The third master thought for a while and said: "What the king said is reasonable, it's better to be careful, but I don't know how we will fight this battle?" ”

Dahan sneered and said: "Our Xiaoshan Mountain is dangerous, the trees are high and the forests are dense, and that group of defeated soldiers will definitely be very careful when they pass through the mountains, if we set up an ambush in the mountains, it will not be easy to succeed, and the brothers in this mountain and dense forests will not be able to show it." So, I'm going to let them go and then clean up the defeated soldiers. ”

"What! Let them go? The third master exclaimed in surprise when he heard this, but after thinking about it, he understood, and said with a smile: "Haha, it is still the king who is wise, in this case, we will win this battle!" ”

The words were divided into two ends, and after the second master left the main village of Heifeng Village, he returned to his stronghold not far from the main village non-stop. As soon as he entered the stronghold, the second master returned to the house and began to write hard, and after a while, he sealed the written letter, called one of his cronies, and said: "You put this letter away, now there is a group of officers and soldiers under the mountain, you go to the official barracks now, and hand over this letter to the chief general of the official army." Remember! Hand it over to the officers and commanders! ”

"Don't worry, the little one understands!"

The second master thought about it, and was afraid that the official and military commanders would interrogate his cronies, so he instructed them in the ears of his cronies. After that, the cronie took the letter and left.

After the cronies left, the second boss gathered the soldiers and horses in the stronghold. Although it was already night, and the men and horses in the stronghold were eating, drinking, and having fun, with the order of the second master, the eight hundred men were still very quickly assembled in the open space in the stronghold.

Seeing that the men of 800 people stood in line, the second master secretly said in his heart: "My king dares to be the tun army that is a military tun, but it is only because the military field is occupied by the general banner and he angrily kills the officials, so he has no choice but to fall into the grass." Although I am a bandit, I am also a bandit of the Ming Dynasty! That group of officers and soldiers was withdrawn from the battlefield against Jiannu, and they were the heroes of our Han people, how could they rob? The king and the three masters are simply money addicts, even if they are thieves, they must have a bottom line! In that case, don't blame my king for daring not to talk about brotherhood! ”

Thinking of this, Wang Dangdang asked loudly in front of his eight hundred subordinates, "Are you my Wang Dang's brothers?" ”

"Yes!" Eight hundred people replied in unison.

"Good!" Wang Dangdang said: "Since they are all my brothers who dare to be the king, then I will tell the truth to all the brothers: now the king and the three masters are going to do something that people and gods are angry about, although I am a bandit, but I still have a conscience!" So I decided to take you to do something that would kill me, would you like to follow me? ”

Eight hundred people responded in unison: "I am willing to go to the soup with the second master!" ”
