After everyone left, Wang Shihua helped them up and smiled at Peng Shuihu: "Shuihu, Uncle Peng's body is being transported back, but it's just ......."

"Master of the family, if there is anything wrong, you just have to command."

"The matter is urgent, and I have to call home by surprise, so I will send troops immediately, and if you don't attend the meeting, there will be a delay. But on the other hand, Uncle Peng is such a son-in-law as you, if you don't go to greet you in person, you can't talk about it, so ......"

According to custom, Peng Ziqing's body was transported back, and as Peng Ziqing's only son-in-law, he must personally greet him, otherwise it will make people gossip and be unreasonable. But on the other hand, it is precisely because he is Peng Ziqing's only filial son, if he is allowed to lead the troops as a vanguard, he can greatly exert the momentum of mourning soldiers, so how can this military meeting be without him. Time is of the essence, and this is difficult.

Peng Shuihu nodded solemnly, frowning and making a choice, his aunt was decisive and said: "Shuihu, it is great to avenge your father, you don't have to go, let Wenwen (Shuihu's eldest son) replace you." ”

Peng Shuihu knelt in front of his mother, kowtowed, got up and took off his filial piety clothes, handed it to his wife, asked her to put it on for her son, and said to her grandmother: "Grandma, please tell your father about it, forgive the child for being unfilial." ”

"You are a great filial piety, your father will know it, and he will only praise you for your filial piety."

"Auntie, I'd like to ask you for a favor!"

"Master, you just have to command."

"Auntie, you also know that the family battle is not trivial, in order to arouse the revenge of the people, please forgive me, when I greet Uncle Peng, I will send someone to hype, and when the time comes, please listen to Erlin's instructions and cooperate."

"Master of the family, don't worry, in order to avenge Ziqing, I can go out." Saying that, she knelt down for Wang Shihua again, Wang Shihua hurriedly stepped forward to help her, but she cried: "Family master, these three heads, I am thanking you for Ziqing." The most correct thing he has done in his life is to have the privilege of following you for a ......"

As he spoke, he couldn't go on, not to mention Wang Shihua, even the guards on the side had red eyes, which shows that the next propaganda will definitely have a huge effect.

After Wang Erlin took them down to greet Peng Ziqing's body, Wang Shihua took Peng Shuihu into the door.

Peng Shuihu walked to the conference table with Wang Shihua, and after Wang Shihua sat down, he knelt on the ground, kowtowed to everyone, and said: "I thank you for your benevolence and righteousness on behalf of my father, and I don't thank you for my kindness!" I, Peng Shuihu, will report in the future. ”

"Water Tiger, what are you doing, it is our duty to avenge Uncle Peng." The second tiger closest to Peng Shuihu hurriedly helped him: "If you do this, you'll see the outside, get up quickly!" ”

After Erhu pressed Peng Shuihu to the seat next to him and sat down, Wang Shihua said with a smile: "First announce one thing." Uncle Peng is no longer there, and Shui Hu has been serving as the deputy battalion commander under Uncle Peng. Therefore, I decided to let the water tiger take Uncle Peng's place, do you have any opinions? ”

Naturally, everyone had no opinion.

"Since there are no opinions, let's officially start the meeting." Saying that, Wang Shihua smiled faintly: "Actually, whether it is fighting with the Xiang family or fighting with the three of them at the same time, we have practiced many times, and it is not a big deal......

Tie Shi served as the commander-in-chief of the left army, and with the first battalion, the fourth battalion, the sixth battalion and the second artillery company, he hurried to Leigong Mountain, commanded the men and horses of more than a dozen villages around Leigong Mountain, a total of 8,000 people, formed a left army, and attacked the right flank of Xiangjia. At the same time, Bai Xianhui, the owner of Lei Gongshan, led the rest of the people to jointly defend, mainly to prevent the Li family's soldiers and horses from raiding.

Uncle Tiger served as the commander-in-chief of the army on the right road, with the second battalion of the two tigers, the seventh battalion, the eighth battalion, the third artillery company, and the 1,000 heroes drawn from Qinghua Village, and the young Zhuang of several villages around Qinghua Village, a total of 7,000 people, for the right army, after rushing to the vicinity of the county seat, with the 2,000 people of the monkey (500 people left in the granary camp of the county seat, which is responsible for the safety of the granary, but also to support the county seat), attacked the left flank of Xiangjia. And Peng Peng, the owner of Qinghua Village, took the rest of the people to guard against Xiang's family, and if necessary, he could abandon Qinghua Village and go to Laosi City.

Wang Shihua personally commanded the 3rd, 9th, and 10th battalions, the first artillery company, and the companies under the regimental headquarters, and the people of Longtang Town, totaling 10,000 horses, which was the middle route army. Peng Shuihu and his battalion were the forwards. As for who is in charge of Lao Sicheng and Longtang Town, Wang Shihua thought about it for a long time, and finally had no choice but to choose Zhang Cuiyun and let a few people who died to assist - no way, the base camp must let someone who is absolutely at ease sit in charge, Wang Shirong and Wang Shifu are not there, it can only be Zhang Cuiyun.

The whole Wang family is preparing for war, but due to the urgency of the situation, it is impossible to gather all of them all at once, but fortunately, the population in the main direction is relatively concentrated, which is conducive to sending troops. On the left, Leigong Mountain is the gathering area, and on the right, Qinghuazhai is the gathering area. Together, the old and weak on both sides are also conducive to retreating directly to Wangjiaping and Guanhu Village.

Wang Shihua ordered: The remaining villages and villages must rush to Laosicheng before ten o'clock tomorrow morning, stay as a reserve, and hand over to Uncle Tie to support the army at any time. The waterway army of Flying Shark Village is divided into two, and the main force of Uncle Da will go to the Guoli River on the left side of the county seat to attack Xiangjia's fleet, and even, if the other two dare to participate in the war, Flying Shark Village will completely block the waterway of Jiangyin County.

Since it is a family war, it must be cruel. Wang Shihua ordered that both men and women over the age of fifteen and under the age of fifty had to participate in the war. Of course, there is a difference: men are in charge of fighting, women are in charge of logistics, and women join the battlefield as reservists when necessary. At home, in order to prevent others from breaking through the defense line and killing their relatives, the elderly and children will be concentrated in: Lei Gong Mountain, Lao Sicheng, Wangjiaping, and Guanhu Village. Among them, Wangjiaping and Guanhu Village are the main ones -- Wangjiaping has a favorable geographical location, Shenyi Mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and can accommodate thousands of people. Guanhu Village is also a military fortress, and it is located in the rear of the war, which can accommodate 10,000 people.

In terms of foreign aid, although the four major families are in the civil war, they are not easy to participate in, but it is impossible to stay out of the matter, after all, the Wang family is finished, their interests will also suffer great losses, and the economic triangle of the two roads and the three families can no longer cooperate as before. Mrs. Zhang really tried his best to help his baby son-in-law, and he had already promised to garrison the soldiers of the clan with a total of 40,000 horses in Rolling Stone Gang. And the old lady Zhang also came forward as a lobbyist in person, he made such a contribution, the other two had to give face, Zhang Wentian agreed, he would take the whole division to be stationed thirty miles north of Lei Gong Mountain, mainly to contain the Li family's forces. The Zhao family and the people of Zhaojiazhai will stay more than ten miles west of Guanhu Village to respond to the old Sicheng.

And after Wang Shihua promised a large price, the three of them promised that if necessary, they would find an excuse to directly participate in the war...... In this way, Wang Shihua has no worries.

The Wang family is already proud and united, and the strength of the Wang family is now the first of the four major families, so the Wang family is naturally even more proud.

When Peng Ziqing and the 52 corpses (including those killed by the devil's plane) entered the west gate of Longtang Town, they immediately stabbed a hornet's nest, causing a huge shock. Under the kneeling and crying of more than 200 relatives and friends of the deceased, coupled with the behind-the-scenes instigation of Wang Erlin's faction, the Wang family's raging anger was successfully ignited. For a while, some people even shouted that everyone should go to see the head of the family together, and they must ask the head of the family to send troops to find revenge for the shame of the family.

"Boom! Boom! Knock ......"

Just as the rage was at its peak, the War Drums Order came.

With the experience of drinking torch wine to avenge Wang Jinhua, this time, everyone is much familiar with the war drums.

Whether it was crying, scolding, or talking, it disappeared immediately. Immediately, I don't know who shouted a "war drum order", and suddenly it was like a stone thrown into the silent water like death, which made Longtang Town boil, shouting and rushing home, finding weapons, wearing armor, and telling the old man to take care of the child......

"Boom! Boom! Knock ......"

When the 'war drum order' sounded for the second time, the men and women who ran out of their homes were like droplets of water, converging into a stream, and then converging into a river, and running towards the old city like a tide.

"Boom! Boom! Knock ......"

When the 'War Drum Order' sounded for the third time, outside the old Si City, a black press had already gathered, extending all the way to the mountainside. However, this time, no one talked about it, firstly because of the dozens of giant remains just seen, and secondly, Wang Shihua was standing on the city wall, so that everyone knew what would happen next.

Although Wang Shihua stood on the city tower, he did not have a trace of leisure.

"Report! Lord, this is a telegram that has just been received. ”

Wang Shihua took the telegram and saw that it was sent by Wang Jiping, and it was written that he had controlled all the Xiangjia shops in the county town, and all the people had been arrested, and asked Wang Shihua what to do with these people -- in the past few hundred years, there have only been two family wars, one was the encirclement and suppression of the Zhang family by the Tusi King, killing thousands of people. Another time was the encirclement and suppression of Tusi by the four major families in the early days of the Republic of China, and almost killed the surname Peng (I estimate that there is no less than 1,000). You can see its cruelty.

Otherwise, vision is everything! As early as when he reached an agreement with the government to use the taxes of the county seat as collateral in exchange for the Wang family's 400,000 catties of grain, Wang Shihua had the foresight to set a plan to take the opportunity to annex other merchants in the county. After several years of strong development, today, half of the merchants in the county are from the Wang family. Under the raid, it was really easy to kill more than a dozen shops of the Xiang family.

And the following one is the monkey's report on the results of the battle: Originally, it was to take advantage of the night to sneak attack the Xiangjia security group that had been stationed outside the county for a long time and put great pressure on Fang Jue, but as a result, the other party had already taken precautions, and the two sides had a draw. But after Wang Jiping led hundreds of men from the Wang family to attack the Xiangjia security regiment's station from the other side, the situation began to be unfavorable to the Xiangjia security regiment, and in the end, the Xiangjia security regiment had to retreat while fighting. By this time, it had retreated to a place more than ten miles north of the county seat...... The monkey felt that there must be an ambush for the Xiangjia security group to retreat so easily, while Wang Jiping was greedy for merit and wanted to eat the Xiangjia security group in one go, so the two had to call Wang Shihua to make a decision.

"Keep the captives safe." At the meeting that had just ended, there was also a brief but fierce controversy over how to deal with the Xiangjia captives: the old men were determined to kill them all to deter the resisters; He Mei and Uncle Jiang resolutely opposed it on the grounds that killing prisoners would only inspire resistance from the people of the Xiang family. In the end, Wang Shihua adopted Zezhong's method: first catch it and be optimistic, and then everyone is discussing how to deal with it. Now, naturally, this is the case.

"As for whether to pursue or not, this is still to be asked? Even with their little men, they dare to go deep into the hinterland of the Xiang family, I really don't know whether to live or die, let them return to me immediately. ”

"Wait a minute!" Just as the herald turned around and was about to run down to give the order, He Mei, who was standing next to Wang Shihua, shouted......
