Chapter Forty-Three: The Right Time, Place, and Proper Law!

Stone Ridge, this is located in the Meiling Mountains, an extremely ordinary mountain range, just like the name, Stone Ridge is steep, the mountain is mostly bluestone, from a distance, the whole Stone Ridge is bare, surrounded by a lush dense forest in Meiling.

And this is the place where tens of thousands of people settled after the Meiling riots!

"What are you going to do?" At this time, it was noon, located a mile away from Shiling Mountain, Xu Jingzong, who had just arrived from Jianghuai, was in a dense forest, looking at Shiling from afar, and asked without looking back.

"What does Gong Feng think?" Hearing Xu Jingzong's words, Ma Zhou did not rush to answer, but retracted his gaze, looked at Feng An, who had a stiff face on the side, and asked with a smile.

This time Meiling suppressed the rebellion, Li Er listened to Zhao Chen's recommendation and ordered Ma Zhou to be in charge of this matter, but at the same time, Xu Jingzong, who was in Jianghuai, and Feng An, who was in Gaozhou, also gave an order, responsible for the two of them to assist Ma Zhou.

These two people, one is a local snake in Lingnan, the other is an expert in Yin, plus Ma Zhou, such a trio combination is more than enough to deal with a group of reckless people.

"Stone Ridge, easy to defend and difficult to attack!" Hearing Ma Zhou's words, Feng An's eyes were still looking at the direction of Stone Ridge, his eyebrows couldn't help frowning slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Therefore, Feng thinks that if you attack it directly, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult!" ā€

There is a sentence, Feng Ang didn't say it, that is, those people on the other side, not only there are tens of thousands of people, but also, on the Meiling construction site that day, he also grabbed a batch of gunpowder, this kind of thing, others don't understand, but he Feng Ang is very clear.

It's just that the matter of gunpowder, once it is really to be talked about, it will have something to do with Zhao Chen, what kind of person is Zhao Chen, Feng Ang feels a headache as long as he thinks about it, so he simply doesn't mention the matter of gunpowder.

"Feng Gong is reasonable, it is indeed not easy to attack!" Hearing Feng An's words, Ma Zhou's face suddenly showed a chuckle, and his eyes followed Feng Ang to look at the stone ridge over there, and he sighed slightly and said: "The terrain of the stone ridge is complicated, it is a strong attack, but I am afraid that I can't find a point!" ā€

"What does that mean?" Ma Zhou's words fell, and Xu Jingzong, who was on the side, suddenly frowned, looked at Ma Zhou with a little impatience in his eyes, and asked.

For Xu Jingzong, whether it is Ma Zhou in front of him or Feng An, the head snake on the side, in fact, from the bottom of his heart, Xu Jingzong is a little despised by him, no matter what, he Xu Jingzong is a person who was once born in the Qin Palace.

It's a pity that he Xu Jingzong's fate is not squeezed, and he has been unlucky in the past few years, first he was sent to Jinmai Mountain for mining, and then he was sent to Jianghuai, dealing with a group of mud legs every day.

Now, he was inexplicably sent here to assist Ma Zhou in quelling the rebellion, and the credit for successfully quelling the rebellion belongs to Ma Zhou.

In this case, I am afraid that if I change to any person, I will be like him Xu Jingzong, and my heart is full of resentment!

"What does Lord Xu think?" Hearing Xu Jingzong's words, Ma Zhou couldn't help but withdraw his gaze, looked at Xu Jingzong with a chuckle, and asked with a humble face.

ā€œā€¦ Quick! Hearing Ma Zhou's words, Xu Jingzong couldn't help but grit his teeth secretly, was slightly silent, and then said: "This matter is not easy to drag on for too long, in Xu's opinion, it will be solved before they become a climate!" ā€

When these words fell, without waiting for Feng Ang to speak to Ma Zhou, Xu Jingzong continued: "Now, it is not certain where these people will go next, so what Xu means is to settle this matter before this!" ā€

"What's a quick fix?" Hearing Xu Jingzong's words, Feng An, who was already stiff on the side, suddenly turned his head, looked at Xu Jingzong with a little cold eyes, and said: "I have already said that the terrain of Stone Ridge is complicated, once it is attacked, I am afraid that the damage will be very terrifying, this Lord Xu will not understand, right?" ā€

The troops gathered here are almost all wingmen, Feng An, as a Lingnan slang bureaucracy, naturally looks to the bureaucrats from the bottom of his heart, in all fairness, he naturally does not want to see the blood of the bureaucrats sprinkled all over the Stone Ridge.

"JAC is in the midst of a bumper harvest!" Hearing Feng An's obvious question, Xu Jingzong couldn't help but take a slight breath, and then, his eyes turned to Ma Zhou on the side, ignoring Feng Ang on the side, and said to Ma Zhou: "So, the assassin should be clear, if these people turn to Jianghuai, how much of a threat they will cause, right?" ā€

Xu Jingzong's concern is not unfounded, Gaine, some of these people in Shiling were originally from Jianghuai, and they were forced to stay in Meiling to build a plank road for more than a year.

Now, since he has rebelled, it is very likely that he will want to return to Jianghuai!

Moreover, judging from the fact that these people have settled in Shiling in the past half month, and there is no indication that they want to attack Nanfuzhou, Xu Jingzong's concern is not impossible.

Perhaps, if Meng Rang was alive, he would not have turned to Jianghuai at this time, but the problem is that Meng Rang is dead, and now, the person who speaks among these people is a reckless man named Xiong Ping, a typical reckless person!

Let this kind of person take tens of thousands of people, and if one is not good, his head will be hot and he will be transferred to Jianghuai, so that Jianghuai, which has just been established, may really be ruined.

"Of course I do!" Hearing Xu Jingzong's words, Ma Zhou nodded suddenly and said to Xu Jingzong. It's just that as soon as the words fell, he muttered slightly: "However, Feng Gong's worries are not unreasonable, Stone Ridge is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is indeed not easy to be in a hurry!" ā€

"That's good!" Originally, he was a little unhappy in his heart, but as a result, hearing Ma Zhou's ambiguous words, Xu Jingzong suddenly looked at Ma Zhou with some uncontrollability, and asked obviously unhappily: "Then according to the opinion of the assassin history, what should be done about this matter?" ā€

"The terrain of Stone Ridge is complex, easy to defend and difficult to attack!" Hearing Xu Jingzong's words, Ma Zhou couldn't help but smile, looked at the stone ridge in the distance, and said: "But on the other hand, if you want to break out of it, it's not a simple thing, yes or no?" ā€

As Ma Zhou said, the terrain of Stone Ridge is complex, and it is very difficult to attack directly, but on the contrary, if the people inside want to rush out unharmed, it is by no means an easy task.

"Want to close?" Hearing Ma Zhou's words, Xu Jingzong's gaze couldn't help but look at Stone Ridge, but after his gaze roughly glanced at the terrain of Stone Ridge, he couldn't help but chuckle, shook his head and said, "I'm just afraid that my heart will not have enough strength to spare!" ā€

Stone Ridge is a mountain range, not a canyon or something, if it is completely encircled, I am afraid that more troops will be needed, and if there are these forces to encircle, then it is better to attack the mountain directly.

Ma Zhou's words, not only Xu Jingzong heard this, he shook his head again and again, it was Feng Ang on the side, his eyes swept over the terrain of Stone Ridge, and he couldn't help but show a disappointed look in his eyes.

"Hewei is naturally delusional!" Hearing Xu Jingzong's words, Ma Zhou suddenly chuckled, looked at the direction of Shiling, and suddenly said with a clear look in his chest: "However, Ma has a way, if it is done, it can also achieve the effect of encirclement!" ā€

"......" Hearing Ma Zhou's words, not only Xu Jingzong, but also Feng Ang on the side, couldn't help but turn around, looking at Ma Zhou curiously, with an expression of willingness to hear the details.

"Oh, it's actually easy to say!" Seeing the two people beside him, looking at him curiously at the same time, Ma Zhou couldn't help but chuckle, and suddenly asked, "I don't know, do the two adults remember the method that Hou Ye used when he was in Goguryeo?" ā€

Ma Zhou's words jumped a little too fast, hearing Ma Zhou's words, Xu Jingzong and Feng Ang couldn't help frowning, but Xu Jingzong's reaction was too fast, just a blink of an eye, then he looked at Ma Zhou suspiciously and asked, "Isn't it a suspicious plan?" ā€

"Exactly!" Hearing that Xu Jingzong was so fast, he had already reacted, Ma Zhou immediately smiled when he heard it, and said: "Back then, the Hou Ye, who was in Liaodong, was able to use this method to deceive the Goguryeo people, and now, we have the right time and place, how can we miss such an opportunity in vain!" ā€

When he said this, Ma Zhou didn't wait for Xu Jingzong and the two to speak, and then continued: "These people are not Lingnan natives, and they are in Lingnan, so naturally they are not familiar with the terrain as we are, so I am afraid that we will come!" ā€

As Ma Zhou said, most of these people are in the Jianghuai area, and they are in the mountains of Lingnan, so they are naturally incomparable to the natives.

"Feasible!" Ma Zhou's words fell, and the eyes of Xu Jingzong and Feng Ang couldn't help but look at Shiling again, as if they were weighing something, and after a while, Feng Ang was the first to break the silence and nodded at Ma Zhou.

Feng An's voice fell, and Xu Jingzong on the side couldn't help but retract his gaze, probably because he also felt that Ma Zhou's strategy was feasible, and nodded silently at Ma Zhou.

Seeing Xu Jingzong and Feng Ang nodding at the same time, Ma Zhou's face couldn't help but smile, but then, his eyebrows couldn't help frowning slightly, looked at the two and said, "It's just that before this, there is one more thing that needs to be done!" ā€

"What's the matter?" Hearing Ma Zhou's sudden change, Xu Jingzong, who had already put his mind at ease, suddenly frowned, looked at Ma Zhou suspiciously, and asked.

"Water!" Hearing Xu Jingzong's words, the corners of Ma Zhou's mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly, and he smiled helplessly at Xu Jingzong and said, "Since you want to do it, you have to do it thoroughly!" ā€

Tens of thousands of people gathered in Stone Ridge are not random, there must be a source of water for activity here, otherwise, tens of thousands of people gathered here, not starved to death, but also thirsty!

"The afterlife is terrifying!" Before, Xu Jingzong actually looked down on Ma Zhou from the bottom of his heart, however, at this moment, after listening to Ma Zhou's few words, he thought things through, that is, Xu Jingzong, and couldn't help but be a little impressed with Ma Zhou.
