Chapter 51 Wujiazhuang

Such a big manor that made the heroes of the green forest salivate but never dared to touch it, Sesame Li actually sent only 1,500 people to try to knock it down, it was really a little carried away. Immediately, the profiteers, who were resentful because of the imitation plate armor, became ill-intentioned and quietly sent their subordinates to deliver a letter to Wujiazhuang on fast horses, ready to see how the offensive and defensive sides would fight and lose both.

There was no need for them to remind them, as soon as Zhu Bayi crossed the Yellow River with his people, Wu Youcai, the owner of Wujiazhuang, had already received the news. Immediately, the old owner called his three sons and the elders of the clan, as well as the housekeeper, the tent, the Xixi, the head of the gun and stick sect, and the dead soldiers of the rivers and lakes together, and discussed the countermeasures together.

"It's Zhu Eighty-one!" Old Master Wu crossed his fingers on his chest and paced back and forth around the Eight Immortals Table. "I probably brought more than 1,500 people with me, and a third of them should be soldiers. In addition, there are more than 30 scouts, each of whom is a double rider. Weapons, it should still be spears. What's special is that they pushed a lot of chicken carts this time, probably because they were afraid that after Zhuangzi was broken, there would be too many things to take away, so they specialized"

"Too much deception!" Before the owner Wu Youcai finished his introduction, the people below were already indignant. All the people who heard it felt that the Red Turban Army was too blind, and they simply regarded Wujiazhuang as an ordinary grass market, and they dared to push the chicken bus to move things casually!

"It's Zhu Eighty-one!" Wu Youcai let go of his hand, held it on both sides of his body and pressed it down, signaling everyone to be calm, "It's the one who went against tens of thousands of troops last winter to the handsome platform and blasted the latter away with a gun." If the notice of the Red Turban Army is true, this son, I'm afraid that Yongwu is not under Guan Zhang! ”

"Buzz!" The chatter below immediately became half as loud as possible. Since the defeat and death of Wu Ru Buhua, the name of Zhu Eighty-one has simply worn out the calluses of everyone's ears. Among the rumors in the chaotic rivers and lakes, it is said that this person is the reincarnation of Maitreya, and there are people who can easily hold thunder in their hands. It is said that this person has a leopard head and eyes, and there are those who are difficult to beat. There are even rumors that this person has been taught by a famous teacher since he was a child, and he has learned the stunts of the Tang Dynasty, and he can fly a sword from a distance of hundreds of steps to take the human level. Wherever it is called, it will never fail.

With such a half-human, half-demon guy as an enemy, everyone is beating a small drum in their hearts. People don't even have a trick with you at all, and if you make a move a few miles away, your head will be gone. No matter how good your martial arts are, no matter how many soldiers you have around you, what's the use?

Immediately, several dead soldiers turned white, and their eyes dodged and looked at the ground, as if gold could grow on the ground. Several elders of the family surnamed Wu also stroked their gray beards, and began to sigh and shake their heads, "Uncle He, since he is Zhu Eighty-one." Or, let's give him all the money and food that Sesame Plum wanted?! While the guy surnamed Zhu has not yet reached the door, there is still a discussion. If this really fights."

"Fourth uncle, sixth uncle, seventh uncle, your words are bad!" Without waiting for Wu Youcai to respond, his eldest son Wu Liangmou had already raised his eyebrows and retorted loudly: "He Zhu Eighty-one is certainly powerful, and our sons in Wujiazhuang are not vegetarians. Why should they take the money and food they have worked so hard to accumulate, let them send a piece of paper casually, and take it away for nothing?! At present, the world is getting more and more chaotic, today is Sesame Li, tomorrow maybe there will be Sesame Zhang, Sesame King, Sesame Zhao, if any bandit leader will move away the hard-earned money of the big guy from our Wujiazhuang, even if we Wujiazhuang has a gold mountain, can we withstand a few moves? ! ”

"That, that" was embarrassed by the younger generations in public, and the faces of several old people turned red all of a sudden, "How can Zhu Eighty-one be generalized with ordinary rogues?" He's going to use the palm of his hand."

"It's not palm thunder!" Wu Liangmou, the eldest son of Wujiazhuang, shook his head and responded in a low voice. As the heir to the next owner, he appears to be far calmer than most of the elders in the village in a critical moment, "It should be a grenade." The guys we sent to Xuzhou to sell pig iron have heard clearly, and now the red scarf thief is training outside the city every day and throwing that thing! ”

"Even if it's a grenade, you have to get close to throw it, right?! Under the heavy protection of an army of 10,000, he threw a grenade in front of the handsome platform, this, this, Changshan Zhao Zilong, the head of the plain talk back then, was only so brave! Wu Youcai's uncle and brother, Wu Youde, the old man of Wujiazhuang, glanced at his nephew angrily, and was so anxious that he was on fire.

It's all to blame on this daring boy. That Sesame Li sent someone to ask for "security fees", and he gave it to him. Anyway, even if you don't give sesame plums, the cost of the government every year will not be too small! But his nephew, who didn't know the height of the sky, actually said that Sesame Li wanted too much, so he put it off for a few days and found an opportunity to bargain. These uncles and brothers around me who love money like their lives actually listened to the opinion of a hairy child, and they really delayed!

Now it's okay, the bargaining hasn't started yet, and Zhu Eighty-one has already arrived at the door with soldiers and horses. If he is really as brave as the legend says, will there be a way to survive in this village of more than 5,000 men, women and children? !

"Even Zhao Zilong, it was because Cao Cao didn't let him release the arrows that he was lucky enough to get out of the encirclement." Wu Liangmou shook the pu fan in his hand, disdainful of Wu Youde's worries. "The reason why Wu Rabuhua fell in love with his Tao was because he didn't know in advance that there was such a thing as a grenade. But we have been prepared for it for a long time. ”

"Ready, what is prepared. Just those fox friends you usually date? When they really encounter something, they dare to pick up the tiger whiskers of Sesame Lee?! The more he listened to what his nephew said, the more Wu Youde felt panicked. When I was young, I wasn't as flamboyant as this. Walking on the road usually with your head down. If he had rolled his eyes like this with his nephew when he was young, he would have fallen to his death on the road a long time ago, how could he have saved up a huge family business with his brother!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but regret that he shouldn't have listened to his old wife's words back then, and gave up the position of the next generation owner to this nephew who had read a lot of books. It's okay now, people who have read a belly of books have a belly of arrogance. In this chaotic world, but he doesn't know how to bow his head everywhere, isn't this intended to bring disaster to Wujiazhuang?

Just when the evil fire was full of can't be vented, I heard Wu Liangmou say: "If those fox friends and dog friends that my nephew is talking about are not up to the problem, how can we get the news that the red scarf thief is coming so early?" No matter how brave the thief is, he is only flesh and blood. At present, there are no less than 30 strong crossbows in our Zhuangzi alone. Hiding behind a high wall and shooting with a crossbow arrow, even if he was really the reincarnation of some Buddha, he still saved him! ”

"This?" Wu Youde can't catch the stubble. To be sure, he didn't think his Zhuangzi was so easy to be attacked from the outside. It's just that I've never really fought with anyone else, and I instinctively panic.

While he was stunned, the eldest prince Wu Liangmou smiled again and said, "Second uncle, don't worry. Didn't you just listen to my father? This Zhu Eighty-one brought more than 500 armor soldiers and more than 1,000 auxiliary soldiers to fight our Wujiazhuang. Obviously, Sesame Li had just won a battle, and he was a little carried away. With more than 1,500 rabble, as long as the nephew moves a little trick, he will not be able to come and go! ”

"Why can't it come and go?" "Liangmou, is your method reliable?" "Good strategy, money is small. Don't bring the trouble to Zhuangzi! The elders of Wujiazhuang heard the chill in their hearts, and asked in a trembling voice with the last glimmer of hope.

"Ambush halfway!" Wu Liangmou didn't even think about it, so he simply threw out the answer neatly, "That Zhu thief came from afar, and he is not familiar with life." All we need to do is set up an ambush in his path, and then take advantage of his unpreparedness to scatter arrows. No matter how good he is, he will already shoot into a hedgehog. Why are you afraid that he will throw a grenade when he gets close?! ”

"No way!" Without waiting for Wu Youde to make any response, the youngest son in the Wu family's room, the third Wu Liangfang, had already jumped out and retorted loudly. "Absolutely not, if we do that, our Wujiazhuang will definitely be in trouble!"

"Third child, what do you mean?!" Wu Liangmou was fighting happily, but he was knocked on the head by his younger brother, rolled his eyelids, and was very dissatisfied with the questioning.

"Big brother, big brother's plan is definitely good!" Wu Liangfang was so frightened that he shrank his neck, and then responded in a very small voice, "But, but it's a bit out of place." Then, that Zhu Eighty-one did only bring 1,500 people, and the eldest brother set up an ambush halfway, and he would definitely be able to catch him off guard. Maybe they can wipe out all of these 1,500 people. However, in that case, our Wujiazhuang has a mortal enmity with Sesame Lee. After hearing the news, Sesame Li will definitely pull all the soldiers and horses out and ask us for the blood debt. We, although our Zhuang Ding are brave, we can use three or four thousand Zhuang Ding to block the 100,000 army of Sesame Li, I'm afraid, I'm afraid that I will be drowned! ”

"Yes, yes! Liangmou, you're not a good idea! ”

"Xiao Mouzi, it's not my uncle who said you. You kid, you're so ambitious! ”

"Hey, I read a lot, I read my heart to death! I just thought about fighting, fighting, fighting, but I didn't think how many catties and taels I had! ”

"Yes, I just wanted to borrow Zhu Eighty-one's head to become famous, but I didn't think about it, beating the child would recruit someone's mother!"

"I told you before, you have to bargain with others. It's okay this time, you can't fight, you can't run, how many of us can do but stretch your neck and wait to be slaughtered?! ”

The spirit of all the elders suddenly came, followed behind Wu Liangfang, and criticized Wu Liangmou. As if he was the main general who led the troops to fight Wujiazhuang, Zhu Eighty-one was just an insignificant little minion.

"You guys?" When Wu Liangmou, the young owner of the village, heard this, his eyes were so angry that his eyes were on fire, and the green tendons on his forehead jumped suddenly. Before the war started, the hearts of the people in Zhuangzi were actually chaotic like this? It's no wonder that Sesame Li didn't take Wujiazhuang seriously!! People's faces are earned by themselves, and they don't want them anymore, how can they expect luxury from others?!

"Uh-huh!" Just when he was about to take out a needle and thread to sew up everyone's mouths, the voice of his father, Wu Youcai, the old owner of Wujiazhuang, suddenly came to his ears. It still sounds as steady and unhurried as before, "Uh-huh, uh-huh!" That second uncle, third uncle, brothers, Liangmou is still a child, naturally he will not think so well of you. But at the moment, our first goal is to work together to overcome this difficult time, not to teach the children a lesson! You say, isn't that so?! ”

"This?" The crowd turned red and closed their mouths in disdain.

Wu Youcai smiled at his eldest son and younger son and nodded, and then continued: "Although your two brothers have different views, their purpose is all for us as Zhuangzi. So whether it's right or not, I, as a father, feel so relieved. Go on, say everything you want to say! Don't care what your uncles say, they are also for everyone, for everyone in this village! ”

After saying this, everyone's hearts felt hot, and when they met each other's eyes, they were no longer sparks.

After looking down and thinking for a moment, Wu Liangmou raised his head again, looked into his father's eyes and admitted, "The child's idea just now was indeed a little urgent. The follow-up of sesame plums was not considered. So let's listen to the thoughts of the third brother first, he has always been more stable than me, who is an older brother. ”

"Yes, yes! Third, go on! You've always been steady, tell me, what should we do?! Hearing that Wu Liangmou took the initiative to admit his mistake, Wu Youde, Wu Youyi, Wu Youfu and other clan elders all looked at Wu Liangfang with a smile, and at the same time cheered the latter loudly.

"Then I'll say it!" The third son, Wu Liangfang, stood up again and gently bowed his hand to the uncles, "Actually, the situation is not as bad as everyone thinks!" ”

"What do you mean!" Zhongsu Lao didn't expect to hear such an answer, so he was stunned and asked in surprise.

Wu Liangfang gently pressed his hand down, followed his father's example, and added with a smile, "Our family just wanted to bargain with Sesame Li before, and we didn't say that we wouldn't give him a penny. The two sides are not yet to the point of life and death. The reason why he sent troops over was nothing more than to take advantage of our family's prestige, kill chickens and monkeys, and make other Zhuangzi pay money obediently. ”

"Then, then give it to him. Hurry up and send someone to tell Zhu, General Zhu said, money, let's double it. Please ask him to quit the army and go back to Xuzhou! Wu Youde and the others immediately perked up, stood up and shouted, "Go, go." Don't use your brother's men. Those under him are as ignorant as him. ”

"If you take the initiative to surrender now, it is estimated that it will not be doubled!" Wu Liangfang pressed his hand down, calm. "Although they walk slowly, they are only 20 miles a day, and they are about to arrive at our doorstep. The consumption of grain and grass along the way is inevitably necessary for our family. ”

"Out, out, give him as much as you want. As long as he is willing to quit! The elders jumped up again, and didn't say yes.

"It can't be like this!" Wu Liangfang shook his head lightly and explained to everyone with a smile. "At this juncture, we can't take the initiative to welcome the surrender. First, when the other party sees that we are soft, they will definitely ask for a sky-high price. Second, Sesame Lee's men and horses hit our door and turned around and left. It's obviously an agreement with us. In case the court wants to investigate in the future, how much money does our family have to spend to satisfy the appetite of those corrupt officials?! ”

"So, what should I do, what should I do?!" Hearing this, Wu Youde, Wu Youyi and others immediately became frosted eggplants again, and pulled their heads to the ground. Although he guards a copper mine, more than half of the copper smelted every year is taken out and fed to corrupt officials. This is still the case that Wujiazhuang does not have any handle and is caught in the hands of others. If there is a real handle, wouldn't the entire copper mine, as well as the entire Wujiazhuang, have to be swallowed by the corrupt officials?!

"You can only fight a dozen first, and talk while fighting!" Wu Liangfang sighed softly, turned his head to his father and eldest brother, and whispered.

"Well, then you can't hold on! As long as we can hold it for more than three days, the officers and soldiers of Tengzhou will climb over! Wu Liangmou learned the previous lesson, and smiled to pick up the leaks for his younger brother.

"Officers and soldiers in Tengzhou?" Wu Liangfang looked at his brother, shrugged his shoulders and smiled, "Even if we guard for a month, the officers and soldiers may not be able to climb over!" After Na Sesame Li defeated Wu Ra Buhua, for three months, he did not send a single soldier to the north of the Yellow River. The officers and soldiers of Tengzhou did not block the crossing of the Yellow River, what is the matter here, don't you understand, big brother? ”

"Ahh Wu Liangmou blushed again, wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, and questioned in anticipation, "Third child, you mean, you mean that Tengzhou's Daru Huachi colluded with Sesame Li?" How is it possible, he is a real Mongolian!? ”

"The Mongols are not all tendons. If you can't beat it, if you lose the city, you will be questioned by the center? Why didn't he break the bank and avoid disaster, and besides, he didn't have to spend his own money. In the name of avoiding disaster, he collected donations from wealthy families in the state, and maybe he could have a lot left in addition to the sesame plums. Big brother, think about it, without the acquiescence of the Dalu Huachi master in Tengzhou, can the people of Sesame Li swagger over and ask for money and grain from various Zhuangzi? ”

At this time, Wu Liangmou finally had nothing to say. What he learned in the books was that the monarch was upright and upright, and the soldiers used their lives. It's a pity that when I go to the place, I take two different paths from the books.

"Then, then why are we fighting?" Wu Youde, Wu Youyi and others listened anxiously next to them, and asked with red eyes.

"For better bargaining!" Wu Liangfang sighed and explained in a low voice, "Sesame Li's soldiers are not conjured by sprinkling beans. I am reluctant to lose too much on our small Zhuangzi. As long as we don't take the initiative to attack, and the red turban thieves died when they attacked Zhuangzi, we can't be blamed. When they see that our family is a hard nut to bite, it will be much easier for Daddy to send someone out to negotiate terms with them. First, the asking price of the red turban thief will not be as outrageous as before, and second, if the court asks after that, our family can also say that the red turban thief has not been able to attack for a long time, and he retreats in the face of difficulties. In this way, both sides will have a way out, and no one will really fight to the end! ”

"This?" Wu Youde, Wu Youyi and other elders groaned in a low voice, not knowing whether the third son's method was appropriate. However, compared to the eldest prince's previous active attack strategy, this move will at least not bring disaster to Wujiazhuang. After thinking for a moment, they turned their eyes to the owner Wu Youcai and asked in a low voice, "Big brother, what do you see?" Is the third child's method feasible? ”

"Although immature, it is not without merit!" Wu Youcai was very relieved, patted the armrest of the seat and replied loudly. "What about you, do you guys have anything to add?"

The second half of the sentence is asked for the housekeeper, Xixi, the head of the gun and stick sect, and the dead soldiers in the rivers and lakes. These people are all the jobs of the Wu family, and of course they will not go against a few sons. After pondering for a moment, 6 continued to respond: "This, the third son's method, it should be, it should be feasible!" ”

"Whether it's war or peace, you have to make a decision. I'm sworn to follow you! ”

"What about you, dick!" Unable to get anything useful from everyone's mouths, Wu Youcai smiled and looked at his second son, Wu Youtian, who had not spoken. "Your brother has said it, and your brother has said it, what do you mean!"

"Fight, if I really want to fight, I will go and catch the black dog and black cat in Zhuangzi to the courtyard wall. Then collect some excrement and riding cloth and other things that reach the shade. When the red turban thief shows his grenade, he will immediately splash it down" Wu Liangtian thought for a while, waved his fist and said. Between his eyes, he was full of the frenzy of subduing demons and eliminating demons.
