"Shihua, where did you find this telegraph man?"

The main force had already set off, and Wang Shihua and Tian Jiafu, under the protection of twenty or thirty horsemen and four hundred spearmen, followed behind the large army unhurriedly.

Tian Jiafu was really envious and jealous of the telegraph: the radio station could be bought, and the telegraph personnel were easy to dig up, but the key was that there was no peace of mind without the children of his own family.

Of course, Wang Shihua understood his plan, and replied with a smile: "I found a master from my godfather to teach me." ”

Tian Jiafu looked back at the fully enclosed carriage with some disappointment, and there was the sound of ticking telegrams from time to time.

"What, you want to get this too? Do you want me to send someone to teach you? ”

Tian Jiafu shook his head and didn't say anything. But I made a decision in my heart: when I went back, I told my father that no matter how much money it spent, I would send a few children of the family to Chongqing to learn this. I still don't believe that you, Wang Shihua, can plant spies there.

Seeing that the trick did not succeed, Wang Shihua shook his eyebrows, pinched the horse's belly, and sped up a little faster.

After walking less than two miles, Wang Shihua pulled the reins suddenly, looked at the grass not far to the right, and his eyes flashed.

"Shihua, what's wrong?"

"Who's hiding there, get out of here!"

Tie Niu immediately jumped out of the carriage, holding a light machine gun, and stood in front of Wang Shihua, the second dog had just dismounted, and was about to lead people to run over to catch people, but saw two spearmen standing in the grass, and smiled at this side: "Wang family master, it's us." ”

"Who are you?"

"We are Zhao Zhai's subordinates."

"What are you doing hiding in the grass?" After shouting, his face changed suddenly, and he shouted, "Do you want to be a deserter?" ”

"No, no! We're just here to take a puff of cigarettes, and we're just going to chase the big army, but you've found out. ”

Wang Shihua thought about it and smiled at Tian Jiafu. Clamped off the horse's belly and left.

As soon as he walked less than 100 meters, he saw two guys sitting in the grass smoking big cigarettes, Wang Shihua just glanced at them, and didn't even ask--as long as you are not from my Wang family, you can smoke as much as you like, and you don't care about my. Lao Tzu wishes that you all smoked it, so that when Lao Tzu cleans up Zhao Tianming, it will be much easier.

didn't notice that Tian Jiafu glared at the two people fiercely, because these two people were soldiers of his Tian family. It's just that in front of Wang Shihua, it's just that it's not good to get angry for a while.

On the next road, you can see big smokers from time to time, hiding on the side of the road in groups of three or five to smoke big cigarettes. Either the Tian family is from the Zhao family, and there is no Wang family, which makes Wang Shihua very proud, and also makes Tian Jiafu's face more and more ugly.

In the end, seeing a group of thirty or forty people gathered together to smoke a big cigarette, it was really smoky, well-equipped, and quite spectacular.

Unfortunately, this group of people is all from the Tian family.

"Pump! Draw out! Draw out! Don't look at what time it is, still smoke? I'll let you smoke, let you smoke ......" Tian Jiafu was so angry that he jumped off his horse and rushed over, whips flying, punching and kicking, completely ruining the enjoyment of this group of people.

Wang Shihua lay on the horse's back, looking at it with a smile, as if he was watching a monkey show, but he was very proud in his heart: Lao Tzu's vision was really sharp, and he would ban smoking one step ahead, otherwise, he would have to be angry and his face would turn black.

After fighting dozens of big smokers alone, and finally beating them out, Tian Jiafu came back angrily, jumped on the horse, looked at Wang Shihua's smile, how did he think he was laughing at himself, and suddenly asked angrily: "Are you laughing?" ”

"It's rare to see your eldest son Tian show his might so much, fighting dozens of them alone, and winning a big victory. I'm happy for you, don't you laugh, do you cry? ”

"Laugh ass! Don't laugh at Lao Tzu. ”

"It's not a mockery. It's normal for them to smoke and refresh themselves~! ”

"Normal fart! Why don't you see your Wang family smoking? ”

"My Wang family is poor, and I can't afford to smoke if I want to. Your Tian family is rich, so naturally you have to enjoy the enjoyment of rich people. ”

"Wang Shihua, if you make fun of Lao Tzu like this again, Lao Tzu will really turn his face." After speaking, he didn't give Wang Shihua a chance to speak again, and whipped the horse away.

Wang Shihua laughed and chased after him.

……

As far as the entire operation against Xiao soldiers is concerned, the easiest thing is not the attack on Pingtou Town by the Xiang and Li families, because the Xiao army resisted there with two or three thousand men, and at the very least, the first wave of attack by the seven thousand soldiers and horses of the Xiang and Li families was repulsed -- as long as Wang Shihua's side won the victory, the Xiao army's side would also be frightened back, so why bother to increase casualties sharply. What is really so comfortable that it is the same as shopping on the street, but it is iron and stone, just because the other party was persuaded to surrender successfully at this critical moment.

There are more than 2,000 people in the village, but most of them are old and weak soldiers, and the real elite is 500 people. This transaction, the capital of the Wang family is enough. In order to prevent being preempted, they will move at the same time as the men and horses on this side.

Tieshi took more than a thousand elites to attack the Xiao family's village, and when he was halfway there, he was caught up by He Mei, because He Mei got the information.

The commander of the Xiao family's old village is called Peng Changhong, who was originally unknown, but for some reason, two years ago, after the commander who was originally stationed here died of illness, he was suddenly promoted and reused by Old Man Xiao and sent here.

This person is extremely strict and conscientious, even to the point of being harsh. After his arrival, the new official took office with three fires! Before the buttocks sat firmly, he first launched the ban on smoking, as a result, Xiao Bing's youngest son took the lead in resisting, and he cleaned up fiercely.

He was not discouraged, the ban on smoking was not successful, and he began to rectify the military horses and train intensively, at this time, his soldiers complained bitterly, and there were many deserters, so that Xiao Bing had to come forward again, and then, the matter also collapsed.

After Xiao Bing's good reassurance, he also somewhat recognized the reality, and in the end, he decided to raise the city wall and build fortifications.

Now, it has been unanimously cheered by the managers of the village: there is a project, there is oil and water! It's just that the poor low-level spearmen and civilians are completely treated as coolies.

This time, under the joint suppression of the managers, no one got the case to Xiao Bing, but it was Peng Changhong himself who ordered the work to be stopped - if this kind of oppression continues, the people at the bottom and the gunmen should rebel.

With these three encounters, Peng Changhong completely understood: the heart is higher than the sky, and life is thinner than paper.

Not to mention that He Mei's grasp of people's hearts has reached the level of a god, and it is immediately concluded that this Peng Changhong is a person with great ability and ambition, but he is only able to persuade him to surrender if he is trapped in the shallows and is played by shrimp.

The long-term management chaos and the fact that no one dared to attack this place at all, so that the spearmen only stayed on the city wall and took a nap, and they didn't even bother to send a few secret sentinels around.

He Mei took advantage of the night to send Liu Jin to climb the wall with her handwritten letter and touch it, and handed the letter to Peng Changhong's hands, which clearly stated: 2,000 elites have besieged Laozhai to death, if you don't want to be slaughtered, there is only one way to surrender. As for Peng Changhong's personal conditions, the head of the Wang family has admired him for a long time, knows the pain in his heart, and has long left him the position of commander of the fifth battalion of the Baojing Regiment. Immediately attached was the letter of appointment of the commander of the fifth battalion, which was stamped not only with the official seals of the provincial government and the county government, but also with the official seal and private seal of Wang Shihua -- although the seal on the appointment letter was stamped, the name was always blank, and as long as the name was filled in, it would take effect immediately.

Peng Changhong was shocked, not only asked his cronies to go to the barracks to give orders and prepare to respond, but also came to the east gate with hundreds of personal soldiers, and after driving down all the people guarding this section of the city wall, he personally shook the torch three times, and sure enough, he saw that there was a torch in the forest to respond.

For the sake of prudence, Peng Changhong asked Liu Jin to bring a message to He Mei, with one meaning: No matter how much you say, I need your supreme commander to personally guarantee me.

He Meiyi is bold, or her grasp of people's hearts is really unpredictable, and she really agreed to guarantee it in person. Seeing that Tie Shi and the others objected, she smiled heroically: "If the other party really dares to take me as a hostage, you must not care about my life and death, just go all out to attack the city." However, after the city is broken, the city will be slaughtered immediately, and the chickens and dogs will not be left...... There are more than 2,000 people to bury He Mei with me, how magnificent! ”

Immediately, he took Liu into the city, and Peng Changhong personally greeted him at the gate of the city.

I don't know what the two talked about, but soon after the city gate closed, fierce gunfire was heard in the city. Immediately, the east gate opened again, and He Mei stood on the city gate, shaking the torch vigorously. Ambushed in the woods, Iron Stone and the others, who were anxiously waiting, immediately rushed into the east gate as soon as they received the signal. As soon as the resistance in the city saw that the general situation was gone, they had no choice but to flee.

It turned out that Peng Changhong suddenly led people to control the east gate, which aroused the vigilance of those who were originally on duty here, and immediately reported it to Xiao Bing's youngest son. And some of Peng Changhong's personal guards were also bribed by him, and when he saw Peng Changhong in contact with He Mei, he immediately reported the news, so Xiao Bing's youngest son hurriedly led people to rush over to make amends, and fought with Peng Changhong's men and horses, and was picked up by Iron Stone and others.

Subsequently, after beheading Xiao Bing's youngest son and his henchmen in public, He Mei ordered: For today's events, both the enemy and the enemy are not to blame. If you are willing to stay in the Wang family, the Wang family will treat everyone equally, and all kinds of subsidies will not be lacking. If you don't want to stay, you can immediately receive five oceans of travel expenses, as long as you leave the guns and bullets.

The subsidy of the Wang family is really attractive, especially in this year of famine, each family can receive the temptation of thirty catties of rice per month, few people can refuse, in the end, only seventy or eighty people do not want to stay, He Mei also talked about credit, and gave each of them five oceans in public, which calmed people's hearts in one fell swoop.

Immediately, under the personal leadership of Peng Changhong, Xiao Bing struggled for decades, scraped the wealth of the people's fat and ointment for decades, and was easily obtained by the Wang family. Looking at the mountains of gold and silver accumulated by dozens of large boxes, He Mei just said lightly: "My Wang family's financial resources have gone up to a new level." ”

Then he instructed: "Report the good news here to the head of the family immediately, and make it clear that the heads of Xiao Bing's youngest son and his henchmen will be sent immediately, and he will be asked to make good use of them." ”

At this point, completely relying on He Mei's resourcefulness, the Wang family soldiers were not tough and bloody, and without a single casualty, they captured the Xiao family's old village, obtained huge wealth, and completely cut off the last bit of illusion of the Xiao soldiers, accelerated the progress of their demise, and correspondingly reduced the casualties of the four major families.

Among the three battlefields in this battle against Xiao Bing, the local battlefield of Xiao's Laozhai was declared to be over!

Due to the deliberate delay of the Xiang family and the Li family in Pingtou Town, now, everyone's eyes are on Xiaojiazhai, waiting for the victory over there......
