The people of Duhe Fort were mainly busy with two things in the following days, Zhou Shaoteng, Fan Shunjiang, and Che Jibao, the three leaders who did not accept themselves at night, alternately went out of the border wall to spy on the enemy.

The remaining leaders were resting the dilapidated facilities of Duhe Fort, and Zhang Mengcheng returned to Jinding Mountain with a part of the soldiers who were resting in rotation after the arrival of the grain transport team.

Zhang Mengcheng, who returned to teach in Jindingshan, also received some news during this time. The thieves who slipped away and were unwilling to follow the big boss and the gods merged with the bandits in other places, and each occupied one side and began the days of their mountain kings. Although their movement is not as great as before, it has become a flame of instability in some places.

Now, due to the fact that the relief money and grain promised by the imperial court in advance have not been in place, many leaders who chose to be appeased in Heshui County, and some hungry people have taken refuge in the past. Among them, there are some well-known big leaders that Zhang Mengcheng has seen or heard of under Shen Yikui, including Liu Wu (Liu Daojiang) and Liu Liu (Liu Daohai), whose real names Zhang Mengcheng knows, and they and Ke Tianfei occupied the Iron Horn City in Dongchuan, and there was also a big thief leader Lone Wolf who occupied the top of Lu Bao. (Note 1)

It is said that Iron Horn City and Lu Bao Peak are now each gathering 10,000 people, but they should not have much food there, and it will probably not be long before they start looting everywhere again. Some of them also contacted Zhang Mengjin from Duhe Fort, hoping that Zhang Mengjin would bring his troops to join them.

However, Duhebao, which had transported a lot of grain from Jinding Mountain, was not interested in this suggestion. Instead, the people were tied up and sent to Wu Hongqi, the general of Ningsai, and at the same time, more than 20 thieves who were killed near Duhe Fort were also presented. If Wu Hongqi can report it truthfully, Zhang Mengjin may be able to directly seal a hundred households from the sixth grade.

Zhang Mengcheng was disciplining his students in the Weicaotang at this time. After almost five months of descending the mountain, Zhang Mengcheng returned to Jinding Mountain to find that his students had lost discipline and had all become a group of wild monkeys. Even the textbooks that Zhang Mengcheng worked so hard to make were torn up several times by them in the frolic.

Zhang Mengcheng, who was suddenly angry, picked up the whip again and taught him a hard lesson. Finally, the children of the thatched cottage recalled the majesty of the Yuewei thatched cottage.

……

In the open space of the Yuewei Grass Hall, more than 100 children stood in two small squares. Everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to look at the gentleman in front of them who was being physically punished.

Zhang Yalian and several other slightly older captains have been severely taught a lesson by Zhang Mengcheng. Covering his reddened little hands, he stayed in the corner and sobbed.

The other children from Duhe Fort stood quietly in a row, and they followed Zhang Mengcheng down the mountain to practice. So what happened in the cottage during this period was none of their business.

The sound of the whip whipping on the palms of his classmates kept reaching Guan Zhiqing's ears. With crying, the classmate was so painful that he didn't dare to stretch out his hand to Mr. anymore, and kept begging Mr. for mercy and saying that he would never dare again. But the gentleman behaved very harshly, and loudly reprimanded the other party and stretched out his hand.

When Guan Yuze saw this, he suddenly recalled what his husband had said, and couldn't help but silently recite in his heart, "I knew this was the case, why bother in the first place." ”

The students who went down the mountain this time, except for Li Dan, announced his graduation because he was over 17 years old. The rest of the people returned to the cottage and began to read and write again, including Zhang Shuangxi, who was always looking for opportunities to compete with himself.

Guan Yuze didn't want to lose to him, and the second uncle also said that he would continue to study with his husband, saying that it would never hurt to learn more. In addition, the second uncle also plans to take himself home after a while and pick up the rest of the family in Ansai City. Anyway, now that he has an official position, he doesn't have to worry about it anymore.

I thought that I had learned a lot of words during this time, and I had also received some rewards. Guan Yuze was looking forward to the day when he would go home in the future, and wondered if he should buy a few baked cakes for his younger siblings at home. The rest of the money was simply given to the mother, as his filial piety. Write a few more words by yourself to make your family happy.

At this time, an old shout interrupted Guan Yuze's fantasy. Several members of the Zhang clan in the cottage came over with the third uncle who was supporting the three Zhang brothers. Stopped the gentleman who kept punishing his classmates.

"Little Fifteen, don't be so angry when you just come back. Just smoke it twice, and don't break the child if you smoke it so hard. The respected third uncle spoke, and no one in the cottage dared not listen. Zhang Mengcheng also had to temporarily stop at this time, and at the same time saluted his third uncle.

"Third uncle, why are you here, I'm disciplining students, there's nothing to see." Although Zhang Mengcheng said this, his eyes still swept over the other clansmen who followed, and he naturally knew that these people invited the third uncle.

The clansmen who were looked at by Zhang Mengcheng a few times were also very embarrassed. But Zhang Mengcheng didn't listen to their pleas before, so they had to invite the third uncle out.

"Little Fifteen, don't look at them. In fact, the other doll families in the village also begged me to come here. After all, the children are still young and ignorant, aren't they just a few books? After that, let Liu Ting print several more copies. The children are a little more playful, just discipline them a little. And isn't this thing like the sentence you used to teach children to memorize, if you don't teach strictly, the teacher is lazy. It was you, the teacher, who was absent for months, that made the children wild. ”

"Third uncle, don't worry about this matter for a long time. I'm not just angry about those books, I've just checked it, and these bastards have even dropped their homework. I haven't learned a few new words, and I've forgotten a lot of what I was taught before. I have already set the rules in this cottage, and those who violate the rules will be severely punished. These children have only been eating for a few days before they dare to go wild like this. No matter how well it is taught this time, the stockade will have to be demolished in the future. ”

Hearing that the children had forgotten a lot of words they had even learned to recognize, the third uncle was suddenly a little unhappy. Just thinking of the clansmen who pleaded with him and the many hungry people who were attached to the cottage, the third uncle continued to plead: "Otherwise, let's reduce half first, and only smoke five times per person, and talk about the rest tomorrow." ”

"Today's business is finished today, tomorrow's business begins tomorrow morning. If you set the rules, you can't mess up, third uncle, you better go back. It is useless for anyone to intercede, their whip is inevitable. Zhaoliang stretched out his hand, and if he didn't stretch out his hand, I would whip you five more times. Zhang Mengcheng still insisted on his principles, and did not accept the third uncle's plea, but reprimanded his students loudly again.

PS: Note 1: In other historical books such as "Huailing Liukou Always Recorded" and "Guoyi", it is recorded that the Chaotian Monkey (that is, Zhang Mengjin's nickname) and the Lone Ranger Wolf occupy the top of Lubao. Because of the development of the plot, this book has naturally changed under the influence of the traveler Zhang Mengcheng.
