Chapter 352: Ill-intentioned

Su Yi held a feast in Taohuazhai to reward the three armies, while Gongsun Yiqing of Liaodong was furious, the officers and soldiers of this battle attacked Wulongzhai in the early stage of the loss was too large, and in the later stage, because the officers and soldiers adopted a siege strategy, the loss of troops was not as great as the early attack, but the disadvantages were also obvious.

The entire Oolong Village was brought down, and very few materials were seized, and the little grain left in the warehouse was almost swallowed up by the fire.

What made Gongsun Yiqing even more angry was that two armies were dispatched, and although the Oolong Village was defeated, Yun Ping, the bandit leader of the Oolong Village, had no news. After the general returned to Liaodong, he naturally told Gongsun Yiqing about the specific situation when he attacked the village, and after learning about the performance of Young Master Cheng, Gongsun Yiqing was slightly disappointed.

The Cheng family is also a strong party in Liaodong, although it is not as good as those family lords, but it can also be regarded as the local head snake, although the Cheng family's private army is not strong in combat, but their manpower is all over the three sects and nine streams in various counties, and their ability to inquire about intelligence is still worthy of recognition.

Especially this time the alliance between Baihuzhai and Yuwentai, although the scouts under Gongsun Yiqing were capable, they did not find out about this situation, and after Cheng Wenyuan told Gongsun Yiqing the news, Gongsun Yiqing immediately sent scouts to inquire about the news.

As a result, the scouts in Liaodong really found a trace of clues, especially the recent large-scale mobilization of troops in Baihuzhai, and not long ago, they also sent horse bandits to go deep into the vertical and horizontal mountains, and it is very likely that they are going in the direction of Youzhou.

If it is a trivial matter, Gongsun Yiqing may be able to turn a blind eye to the White Tiger Village, but when it comes to the Hu people, Gongsun Yiqing will never take it lightly, he has the attitude of rather killing the wrong person than letting it go, since the White Tiger Village is suspected of Tonghu, and it is also a large village that can be counted in the vertical and horizontal mountains, it must be removed, otherwise the future will be endless.

In terms of the combat effectiveness of the Liaodong army, although it will take some effort to exterminate the White Tiger Village, it is not a big deal, although the White Tiger Village is powerful in the vertical and horizontal mountain range, but their strength is simply not worth mentioning in the eyes of Gongsun Yiqing, the only thing that makes him have a headache is that there are many subordinate cottages in the White Tiger Village, and the geographical location is peculiar.

Once the officers and men invaded the Zongheng Mountains, they had to consider the problems of logistics and supply, especially after the troops penetrated deep into the Zongheng Mountains, the supply lines were stretched too long, and the problem of supply lines being interrupted could easily occur.

In particular, there are many rogues in the vertical and horizontal mountain ranges, and the logistics supply team is easy to be ambushed in the mountain range, this hidden danger Gongsun Yiqing has to consider carefully, especially after attacking Wulong Village, except for the loss of troops and generals, nothing has been gained, which makes Gongsun Yiqing even more dissatisfied, at this time it is the time of the Hu invasion, he has even begun to consider shrinking his troops, temporarily ignoring the White Tiger Village, and making every effort to deal with the Hu people outside the Guan.

Fortunately, Cheng Wenyuan was eager to make meritorious contributions, and he had a lot of relationships, and the harm of Baihu Village was really too great after the enemy, so Gongsun Yiqing had to put the plan of shrinking his troops on hold for the time being.

After the work of Taohuazhai was properly arranged, Su Yi took the initiative to send someone to contact Cheng Wenyuan.

In this regard, although Cheng Wenyuan was dissatisfied in his heart, he still endured the unhappiness in his heart and saw the person, his expression at that time was as disgusting as eating a few dead flies, but it was okay not to see it, at first sight, Cheng Wenyuan almost jumped up.

Su Yi sent someone to send Yunping's head, this missing owner of Oolong Village really died at the hands of Su Yi, for a while, Young Master Cheng had mixed feelings, not only admired Su Yi's ruthlessness and strong means, but also envied Su Yi for looting so many materials in White Tiger Village.

Young Master Cheng leaned back on the chair, squinted his eyes and asked: "Your village master has looted so many materials from Wulong Village, and I don't know how to send some to this young master, if I didn't intentionally let him go up the mountain, can your village master ransack the treasury of Wulong Village?" ”

The person sent by Su Yi was also a thoughtful person, he smiled slightly and said: "My lord knows about this, so he specially asked the small one to send this person's head, my family assisted and said, this Yunping is the owner of Wulong Village, and he is a few generals under Bai Song, his head can be worth a lot of money, and this head should be a gift from him to Young Master Cheng." ”

"Hmph." Cheng Wenyuan snorted coldly, and his face turned a little better.

"Go back and tell your father-in-law, Gongsun Yiqing is busy dealing with the Hu people outside the gate at the moment, and he may not be able to free up his hands to deal with Baihu Village, let him be careful himself." Cheng Wenyuan waved his hand and gave the order to evict the guest.

Su Yi's subordinates replied repeatedly, turned around and walked outside the house, Cheng Wenyuan looked at his back, and a hint of triumph flashed in his eyes.

It didn't take long for Cheng Wenyuan to take Yunping's head to see Gongsun Yiqing, and Gongsun, who had no hope for Cheng's young master's ability, suddenly lit up and asked in disbelief: "General Cheng, is this really Yunping's head?" ”

Cheng Wenyuan put on a humble expression and said: "If it is fake, this head is the bandit leader Yunping." ”

"Good!" Gongsun Yiqing stroked his palm and said with a smile: "It's not a big deal to be able to take down the Oolong Village, but to be able to cut off Yunping's head is the real skill." ”

Cheng Wenyuan was secretly happy in his heart, and hurriedly took this opportunity to speak: "Lord Gongsun, the matter of the White Tiger Village colluding with the Hu people cannot be taken lightly, the White Tiger Village has a lot of prestige in the vertical and horizontal mountains, once they collude with the Hu people, I am afraid that the situation for us will be even worse." ”

Gongsun Yiqing nodded and said: "What you said is right, but I am worried that continuing to fight will waste money and food in vain and waste the lives of the soldiers, and their lives should be left in the border pass, not in the mountain range, and fight with bandits and bandits." ”

When Cheng Wenyuan heard this, he hurriedly expressed his loyalty and said: "My lord, the last general is willing to listen to your drive!" ”

"You?" Gongsun Yiqing looked at Su Yi in surprise, looked him up and down, and said, "General Cheng is loyal to the imperial court and has commendable courage, but those soldiers and horses under your command ......"

Cheng Wenyuan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said, "My lord! The last general is willing to serve the court, but the soldiers and horses under my command are all temporary members of the family and the guards, and they really can't be called the army, to put it mildly, they are not even a rabble, and the last general has the heart to serve the court, but he has more than enough heart and not enough strength! ”

Gongsun Yiqing pondered for a moment and raised his eyes to look at Cheng Wenyuan.

Seeing this, Young Master Cheng immediately puffed up his chest and put on a loyal appearance.

Gongsun Yiqing wanted to speak several times, and finally sighed and said: "Let me think about it in advance, you go down first, the old man has his own plans for the affairs of the White Tiger Village." ”

When Cheng Wenyuan heard this, he was a little disappointed, but he didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction in front of Gongsun Yiqing, so he had to bow down and retire, and when he withdrew from Gongsun Yiqing's study, a trace of coldness flashed in Master Cheng's eyes, and he said secretly, it seems that if he wants Gongsun to give power to Lao Tzu, he has to take strong medicine!
