Chapter 342: Mulberry Tree Ditch
Looking at Niu Qianjin with a frightened look on his face, there was no change on his face, but there was a burst of excitement in his heart, he knew that his words had successfully attracted Niu Qianjin's attention, and the next plan, whether it can be realized, depends on how he says it.

"Big brother, Zeng Aman and the old and young of the Zeng family were not killed by the people of the imperial court, on the contrary, they were killed by a group of bandits." Qiqiu said.
"Bandits, this ..... How is this possible, how can there be such bold bandits within a radius of hundreds of miles in Jianzhou, besides, even if there are really such bold bandits, how did they enter Jianzhou City, if it is expected, then Zeng Aman and his family should be in Jianzhou City. Niu Qianjin asked even more suspiciously.
"Hehe, big brother, you don't know, speaking of which can be regarded as Zeng Aman's own self-inflicted, usually in Jianzhou, he is used to being a blessing, forgetting that this person has a bottom line, this time it seems that some places in the north have suffered disasters, and the Han court sent some disaster victims to Jianzhou, so that they can eat here.
Unexpectedly, in order to covet the rations of these victims, Zeng Aman not only did not help them, but locked the gate of Jianzhou City, turned away these victims, and wanted to starve them to death, it was also his bad luck, these victims are not easy to mess with, I don't know how, so he took advantage of the night to secretly rush into Jianzhou City, killed hundreds of soldiers in the city, and captured the Jianzhou City, you say, in this way, how can Zeng Aman's family be good, those traitors do not kill them, but strange. Qiqiu explained with a smile.
"Well, so that's the case, no wonder, speaking of which, Zeng Aman also died on a greedy word, to a certain one, how good An An's life is, he has to learn from the Han people, so many messy things." Hearing Qiqiu's explanation, Niu Qianjin breathed a sigh of relief.
Don't look at his infinite scenery on the surface in this land within a radius of hundreds of miles, and he also disdains the Tang Dynasty, but in his heart, he is quite afraid of the Tang Dynasty, if it is really the court that wants to rectify Jianzhou, he has no choice but to surrender or hide in the mountains and forests, there is only one way to die, so after hearing that Zeng Aman's death has nothing to do with the Tang Dynasty, but is just the result of his own self-inflicted suffering, he was also relieved.
"Well, Brother Qi, although the Han court doesn't pay much attention to the land of Jianzhou, but now that someone has captured Jianzhou City, shouldn't the Han court send someone to come, this ......." Niu Qianjin, who had just come down easily, somehow, suddenly thought of this matter, and his face became solemn again.
"Big brother, of course, the Han court pays attention to 'the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king', how can they tolerate Jianzhou being seized by traitors, not only send troops, but the army has already arrived outside Jianzhou." Qiqiu said.
"What, this..... This ......, do you say that the imperial army will do something to us after taking Jianzhou City, I heard that some people in the Han court have long been dissatisfied with us, will they take this opportunity to attack us, although this prison Longshan Mountain is high and dense, but if they really do it to us, we are afraid that we will be very passive! Niu Qianjin couldn't help but say.
Looking at Niu Qianqian's frightened appearance, Qiqiu felt a burst of disdain in his heart, and after secretly spitting on it, he still said with a smile, "Although the eldest brother can rest assured, according to the younger brother, the Tang army only came to recover Jianzhou City, and will not attack us, after all, we have not rebelled." ”
"But if they want to do something to us, wouldn't we....... No, I have to prepare in advance, and if Tang Jun really makes a move on us, we can also be prepared. Niu Qianjin said that he was about to get up and gather people.
"Slow down, big brother, don't worry, you have something, don't be in a hurry at this moment, you don't let the little brother finish speaking, and when the time comes, you can make a decision." Qiqiu grabbed Niu Qianjin who got up and said.
"Hmm........ Yes, you are the smartest person among our people, but you can talk about how we should face this matter in front of us, but there is a way to prevent Tang Jun from doing something to us. Niu Qianjin looked at the ball that grabbed him and said.
"Actually....... Actually, big brother, little brother actually has a way here, but I don't know if it will work, you see ........" Qiqiu did not live up to Niu Qianjin's hopes, and said with some hesitation.
"Say, say it quickly, if that method really works, I must thank you well." Niu Qianjin said overjoyed.
"Hehehe, no matter how cunning the fox is, he will fall into my trap, you just wait for the head to hit the ground, and give this imprisoned Dragon Mountain and the Black Bull Tribe to my fate!" Looking at Niu Qianjin, who was extremely surprised, Qiqiu sneered in his heart.
"Big brother, this matter is not difficult, in fact, this time the younger brother came here, but also for this matter, you may not know, the younger brother's subordinates not long ago poked out in the mulberry ditch, suddenly a group of strangers appeared, these people arrived in the mulberry ditch actually began to build a house, ready to stay there, originally the little brother thought that it was a tribe that migrated from afar, but the news that the spies heard back was not like this.
Most of the strangers who appeared in Mulberry Valley were old people, women and children, few adults, and many of them were disabled, and it was strange that each of them carried a lot of good things, including food, iron tools, and even gold, silver, jewelry, horses, and cattle, etc., especially some of them were holding delicate weapons.
After learning about these strange people, the younger brother went to investigate it himself, and found that ........"
"I've found something, hurry up." Hearing this, Niu Qianjin asked a little anxiously.
Urged by Niu Qianjin, Qiqiu also sped up and said, "Little brother actually found out that those people are not our She tribe, but Han people." ”
"Han people, how is this possible, although there are Han people in my Jianzhou, most of the Han people live in the cities or villages and towns of the state and county, how could they suddenly appear in a remote place like Mulberry Valley, you can't be mistaken!" Niu Qianjin was puzzled.
Hearing Niu Qianjin's doubts, Qiqiu shook his head mysteriously and said, "No, the little brother is not mistaken, those people are indeed Han people, at the beginning, the little brother was also the same as the eldest brother, he was quite puzzled in his heart, and he didn't understand why these Han people appeared here, and later, after some inquiry, the little brother had a little guess." ”
"Oh, tell me who they are and why they are in Mulberry Gully."
Regarding Niu Qianjin's question, Qiqiu did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically, "Big brother, have you ever thought about it, a group of Han people with countless good things, all of them have low combat effectiveness, and they will actually appear in the extremely remote mulberry valley, you say, what kind of person would do this?" ”
Hearing such a rhetorical question, Niu Qianjin immediately turned his brain and thought about it, after all, he was the uncrowned king of Fang Yuan's brush, and Niu Qianjin was not stupid, combined with what Qiqiu said just now, he immediately thought of the answer to the question.
"Dude, you mean ...... Say..... Those people, those Han people in Sangshugou are..... It's the group of rebels in Jianzhou City. Niu Qianjin said in surprise.
"Hahahaha, the eldest brother is really sensitive, what you said is good, but it's not all right, they are the rebels of Jianzhou City, but they are not the main force of the rebels, but the families of the rebels, this time the Han court sent a large army to attack Jianzhou City, and the rebels in the city must have thought that they could not defend Jianzhou City, so they let some family members hide outside in advance, on the one hand, they will not become a drag on them in the city, on the other hand, they will not be killed by the Tang army after they fail." The ball laughed.
"I see, it's just, what does this have to do with us, don't you covet those good things in their hands?" Niu Qianjin asked.
Seeing that Niu Qianjin still didn't open his mind, Qiqiu wanted to give him a slap, but after hesitating for a long time, Qiqiu still didn't dare to make a move, so he could only continue patiently, "Big brother, why don't you understand, think about it, who are those people, they are the families of those traitors in Jianzhou City, and the reason why the traitors let them escape in advance is to let them live, which shows that the traitors attach great importance to them."
If we catch them and dedicate them to the Tang army, then the Tang army will be able to use these people as hostages, and easily make the rebels in the city raise their hands and surrender, and at that time, with this feat, you are afraid that the Tang army will attack us, maybe the Tang army and the Han court will be happy for a while, and it is very possible to give you a big official. ”
"Uh-huh..........."
After listening to Qiqiu's words, Niu Qianjin's eyes suddenly flashed a sharp edge, this is happy, it can be said that the suggestion of Qiqiu is very suitable for his ideas.
"Okay, good, good, Brother Yu is worthy of being the smartest person in our She tribe, this kind of complicated matter was solved by you so easily, it's really amazing." Niu Qianjin said.
"The eldest brother is too polite, we are both She people, how can we watch the eldest brother embarrassed and indifferent, but I don't know if the eldest brother has decided on this matter, whether to do it or ......"
As soon as Qiqiu said this, he was interrupted by Niu Qianjin.
"Do, this thing must not only be done, but also done cleanly, we must take all those Han traitors and let the Tang Army see our ability."
...............................
Mulberry Tree Ditch, because most of the places in this radius of tens of miles are famous for mulberry trees.
There are 100 miles of mountain roads from the prison dragon mountain of Niu Qianjin, there are mountains all around, and the road is difficult to walk, there is nothing else here except mulberry trees, therefore, whether it is She people or Han people, they rarely come here, and over time, this place has become a wasteland.
For others, this is a wasteland, but for the victims who escaped from Jianzhou City, this is the safest hiding place.
Originally, when they arrived at Jianzhou City, they had 5,000 victims, after a sneak attack on Jianzhou City, hundreds of people were killed and wounded, and in addition to the young adults who were able to fight were left in Jianzhou City, the victims who really appeared in Mulberry Valley, only more than 2,000 people, it sounds like a lot, but most of them are elderly people and children, and even women are very few.
At sunset, outside a freshly built house that still smelled of wood, several bonfires were blazing, some were cooking, some were mending clothes, and the children were playing happily with everything they could, and I am afraid that only some different expressions could be seen on their faces.
"Hey, I don't know what happened to my little sixth son, he is just sixteen years old, and his body has been extremely thin since he was a child, I originally wanted to wait for the family to have money, buy him some supplements, and recuperate his body, who would have thought that when he came here, he would be against the court, it was really ......"
An old woman with gray hair said to several women beside her with a numb expression while sewing the clothes in her hands.
"Who said no, my big tiger doesn't know what is going on now, they all say that this good has good and evil is rewarded, but we haven't even done a little bad thing, why is there no good reward?" Another woman said.
"Auntie, don't worry, Brother Dahu and Xiao Liuzi are both blessed people, they will definitely be fine, when Da Lang takes them to repel the imperial army, we can go back, and you can see them too." The person who said this was a young man, but the only thing that was different was that only half of his left arm was left, which was cut off by the government soldiers in the city when he captured Jianzhou City last time.
Hearing the young man's words, although the women didn't say anything, the expressions on their faces became even more depressed, and they seemed to see the future results of their children from this young man.
After eating, except for a few fires and night watchmen, the rest of the people went to the house, and the sun rose and the sun set to rest, which was the way of life of ordinary people in ancient times when materials were scarce.
As the night became thicker and thicker, the whole mulberry ditch became quite silent, because it was winter, and there was not even the sound of some insects, which made people feel a dead silence.
It's just that no one thought that in this dark night, a group of strange people came outside the mulberry ditch, they were like nocturnal animals, in the dark night without bright lights, just with the lamp the size of the incense master, slowly surrounded the entire camp of the victims.
"Patriarch, the warriors have surrounded the entire camp of the entire Han people, and promised that not a single Han person will run away, you see when we will do it." Outside the mulberry ditch, Niu Qianjin and Qiqiu and a few other people stood here, looking at the dark mountain forest, silently thinking about things.
"Okay, great, tell the warriors, act immediately, you must not let a Han escape, of course, it is best not to kill anyone, except for those who resist, do not kill any of the others."
