Chapter 354: The time is ripe

Cheng Wenyuan is waiting for an opportunity, waiting for an opportunity to be trusted by Gongsun Yiqing, the Cheng family wants to gain a foothold in the troubled times, buying a large number of weapons and armor is on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is necessary to have a strong army.

The Cheng family's private army is composed of family members and guards, and the quality of the soldiers is really poor, even if these people are equipped with good armor, they are only slightly stronger than the rabble. Cheng Wenyuan saw hope from Gongsun Yiqing, as long as he could lead the army to fight, he could use the advantage of the Cheng family's sufficient funds to buy people's hearts and make his subordinates die for him.

However, in order to do this, it is necessary to persuade Gongsun Yiqing to continue to send troops to Baihu Village, as long as Gongsun Yiqing wants to attack Baihu Village or the affiliated cottage of Baihu Village, he has to be used.

The generals sent by Gongsun Yiqing failed to capture the owner of the Wulong Village, on the contrary, Cheng Wenyuan, who was rehabilitated during the attack on the village, took out Yunping's head at the time, which made everyone's eyes shine, even Gongsun Yiqing had to suspect that this person was really the nemesis of the bandits.

In order to persuade Gongsun Yiqing to continue to send troops to Baihu Village, Cheng Wenyuan sent someone to contact Su Yi.

In the battle of Oolong Village, Su Yi seized a large number of weapons and armor, and also transported most of the grain in Oolong Village, which could be used to build a small cottage.

However, Su Yi had no intention of continuing to expand his power in the Zongheng Mountain Range, and he had all these grains and supplies transported to Shangjun County. The soldiers and horses stationed in Shangjun County had to spend every day, and there was not enough food to stock, so I was afraid that it would not be long before the soldiers mutinied.

Meng Hai took Xiang Yong to suppress bandits in Shangjun County with difficulty, if he didn't still have a trace of ambition in his heart, he was afraid that he would have been unable to bear it a long time ago, so he took the initiative to apply to Su Yi and asked to go back to Taohuazhai.

Through this group of villagers in Shangjun County, Su Yi also understood that blindly expanding the army would only reduce the quality of the army, and some ruffians and hooligans would not be able to train an elite soldier no matter how they trained like this, on the contrary, these people would also bring some recruits and spread their bad habits to the entire army.

In addition, Su Yi also found that Yuwentai began to eyed Shangjun County, although he did not find the horse bandits in Baihu Village near Shangrao County during this time, Su Yi still did not dare to take it lightly. In any case, the hidden danger of Baihu Village must be eliminated first, and as for Shangrao County, he has time to free up his hands to deal with it.

Soon, the messenger sent by Cheng Wenyuan contacted Su Yi.

Su Yi quietly received the letter handed to him by Cheng Wenyuan from the messenger, and the letter briefly explained the current situation in Liaodong, as well as Gongsun Yiqing's concerns, of course, Cheng Wenyuan also kept an eye on it, and deliberately exaggerated Gongsun Yiqing's concerns about sending troops to Baihuzhai in the letter, naturally in order to get more information from Su Yi.

However, Su Yi only knew about the alliance between Baihuzhai and Yuwentai, as for the inside story of their alliance, this was unknown, and he couldn't give Cheng Wenyuan much help. At present, the Hu people in Shangrao County are eyeing Shangjun County, Su Yi is eager to solve the hidden danger of Yuwentai, at this time, it is necessary to contain Baihuzhai in the vertical and horizontal mountain range, at least not to let Baisong send troops to attack Taohuazhai.

Fighting on two fronts is the most taboo thing, especially the strength of Baihuzhai and Shangrao County is very strong.

After Su Yi pondered for a moment, he said to the messenger: "You go back and tell Cheng Wenyuan, just say that I have already understood these circumstances, you let him rest assured, I will cooperate with him." ”

The messenger opened his mouth and was about to say something, but Su Yi waved his hand and impatiently drove him out of the county office.

If you want Gongsun Yiqing to send troops to Baihuzhai as soon as possible, you can only start from the Hu people's side, so that Gongsun Yiqing knows that Hu Renhe and Baihuzhai will take action soon, so that Gongsun Yiqing has a strong sense of crisis.

"Send a word, let Liu Han'er take three hundred Hu people to Baihu Village." Su Yi gave an order to the guards on the side.

Liu Han'er is the leader of the Hu soldiers of the Peach Blossom Village, these Hu soldiers are not so much the soldiers and horses of the Peach Blossom Village, but the slaves of the Peach Blossom Village, although they have no status, but Su Yi finally did not abuse them.

And Liu Han'er was reused by Su Yi because he was proficient in the Hu language, and these Hu people were all handed over to him to take care of and be responsible for some stone mining.

These Hu people planned many times and prepared to escape, but they were all stopped by Liu Han'er in time. Soon, the guard went to Taohuazhai with Su Yi's order and met Liu Han'er, who was guarding the Hu people.

Su Yi's order was very simple, let Liu Han'er take these Hu people to Baihu Village, and at the same time, he would send someone to contact Cheng Wenyuan and let Young Master Cheng ambush this Hu team. Of course, Su Yi would explain this to Liu Han'er in advance.

Taohuazhai has been in the Zongheng Mountain Range for so long, and it has also captured some Hu thieves, and Taohuazhai has looted some Hu villages near the Zongheng Mountain Range, and there are many Hu people in the cottage.

At Liu Han'er's request, these people were equipped with simple leather armor and inferior wooden spears, and none of them were equipped with bows and arrows. Although these Hu people did not know what Liu Han'er was doing this, Liu Han'er informed them before leaving that the owner of Taohua Village had decided to let them go and build a new cottage in the Zongheng Mountains near Liaodong, ready to be used to house them.

Although the Hu people were suspicious, they gradually relaxed when they saw Liu Han'er escorting them away with a team of ironclad soldiers, and there were no restrictions on their whereabouts along the way. After Young Master Cheng got Su Yi's reply, he was naturally overjoyed.

Soon, this Hu team was ambushed by Liaodong officers and soldiers near Baihu Village, and the leader of the team was Young Master Cheng.

This battle Cheng Young Master fought very smoothly, this Hu team was originally small in number, and the equipment was poor, Cheng Young Master brought 500 cavalry from Gongsun Yiqing to enter the mountain to inquire about the news.

Gongsun Yiqing's move was also to test Cheng Wenyuan's ability, but not long after this cavalry entered the mountain range, it encountered a group of Hu people. Under the battle between the two sides, the cavalry of Liaodong had almost no casualties, but this Hu team was killed by the officers and soldiers of Liaodong.

Originally, the deputy general of the cavalry was still thinking about catching some prisoners and going back, but Cheng Wenyuan had prepared in advance, and almost all of these hundreds of Hu people died under the swords of the officers and soldiers of Liaodong, and only Liu Han'er retreated with a team of ironclad soldiers. Cheng Wenyuan did not send people to pursue, but ordered the cavalry to surround and kill hundreds of Hu people.

When Cheng Wenyuan took these Hu people to Liaodong to see Gongsun Yiqing, Gongsun Yiqing's expression became solemn, although Cheng Wenyuan didn't catch it alive, but what it meant for these Hu people to appear near Baihu Village, he didn't need Cheng Wenyuan to say more, he could also understand.

"It seems that Hu Ren and White Tiger Village are ready to do it!" Gongsun Yiqing sighed, and his eyes became resolute. (To be continued.) )
