At the same time, the high leader of the Mill Cone Mountain led more than 100 thieves from the original Mill Cone Mountain to pretend to patrol around, and when they went to the square, they saw the Sow Ridge guards scolding and scolding the old and weak in the village to speed up the transfer of goods, staring at the money and silver on the vehicles on the loading road one by one, and their faces showed greed.

A cronie approached the leader of Gao and said: "Brother Gao, these are all the goods of our Mill Cone Mountain, why do they occupy all the sow ridges, find us when they are working hard, and throw us aside if there is a good thing, and the brothers are not convinced." ”

The leader surnamed Gao gritted his teeth, and said cruelly in his mouth: "What's the use of disagreeing, now that people are powerful, we have to pretend to be grandsons, who told us to fight in the nest of the grinding cone, forget it, let's be out of sight and out of mind, let's go!" ”

"Hey! These white-eyed wolves, the food has been taken away, how will we spend this winter! Some of the high leader's guards cursed angrily.

"Look! There were suddenly a lot of guards around the square, well, there were still many guards pouring into the stockade, what the hell is the leader of this sow ridge going to do! ”

The muscles on the cheeks of the high leader trembled twice, and he said helplessly: "Don't worry about this for now, with my friendship with Commander Chen, I think Commander Chen will not do things absolutely if I think of it." Don't forget, we still have an important person in our hands, and when the commander was here, he originally planned to use this as a bargaining chip to ask for benefits from Pingdu Zhizhou. Now that the commander is gone, this hostage will naturally be taken over by our brothers, and the brothers are tight-mouthed, so don't leak it to the people of Sow Ridge. ”

The guards of Mill Cone Mountain nodded in agreement, and came up with ideas to find a way to hide this matter from being known by the Sow Ridge thieves.

The leader surnamed Gao waved his hand to stop his subordinates, sighed and said, "Dog, you take some brothers to the gate of the village to change guards with the sow ridge guards." ”

The thief who was called a dog was puzzled: "Isn't it more reassuring to guard Sow Ridge's own people, why do you want to change guards?" ”

The high leader was a little impatient and said: "If you want to go, you will go, what so much nonsense!" ”

The dog hurriedly lowered his head and agreed in a muffled voice, and slowly walked towards the direction of the village gate with a dozen or so.

The high leader continued to instruct, "The rest of the brothers follow me, let's go to the house next to the council hall to check first, pay attention to be careful when checking, neither let the people in the house have an accident nor arouse the suspicion of the people in Sow Ridge." ”

……

Shen Xiaoshan and Cheng Yousheng were hidden in the shadows outside the Mochongshan Square, and they found that if they wanted to blend into the inside of the cottage, they had to pass through this square, and there were many guards guarding the outside of the square, and they were surrounded by lit torches.

The two of them hid in the shadows and racked their brains to find a way, and suddenly saw that there were many patrolling guards around the square, and there were torches swimming around in the distance, and the shouting and scolding in the square was much faster than just now.

Shen Xiaoshan dragged Cheng Yousheng to the dark place and didn't dare to move, it seems that the bandits who fled back have already made a report to the commander of Sow Ridge, and Sow Ridge is making a redeployment.

The two of them simply shrank in the dark and observed, and after more than an hour, suddenly there were bursts of crying and scolding from inside the cottage, and they gradually approached the square noisily.

The two of them saw a large group of women being expelled from the village to the square, there were three vacant carriages in the square, the women were driven into three groups, a carriage was crowded with more than a dozen women, most of the women wept and cried loudly, and some of them retreated and refused to get into the carriage, and the women who resisted without exception summoned the guards to beat and scold, and finally they were forced to get into the carriage.

Shen Xiaoshan's eyes widened in surprise, what are the sow ridge thieves doing?

Hundreds of wheelbarrows in the square were already full of goods and supplies, and next to the wheelbarrows stood the numb captives of Mill Cone Mountain, who would later push the wheelbarrows to carry goods and supplies with the Sow Ridge thieves.

And the women in the three carriages were selected by the sow ridge thieves to return to the cottage as playthings for the thieves' pleasure.

With a whistle, the prisoners in the square, who were ready, pushed wheelbarrows full of supplies to the outside of the Mill Cone Hill Square, and three carriages full of crying women also slowly drove out of the square.

The guards who had been watching the square were divided into two parts, one of which walked in front of the convoy to clear the way, and the other part remained at the end of the convoy to stand guard.

In the darkness of the night, I saw a long torch slowly moving along the convoy towards the mountain behind Mill Cone Mountain.

This sow ridge is going to transport the money and grain of the Mill Cone Mountain overnight, Shen Xiaoshan and the two glanced at each other in surprise, and fortunately let the two of them find out this important information. The sow ridge thief must not be allowed to succeed.

This news must be passed on quickly, and the sow ridge thieves must not be allowed to transport the seizure away smoothly! Both of them thought so.

The remaining goods and supplies in the square were piled up in a mess, and the remaining Sow Ridge thieves continued to force the residents of Mill Cone Lodge to load them onto the vacant trolley.

There is no need to stay here in the square, Shen Xiaoshan lightly touched Cheng Yousheng and the two quietly began to retreat, far away from the square, Cheng Yousheng suddenly said: "Xiaoshan, the gate of the village is tightly guarded, just the two of us, I am afraid it will be difficult to get out of the gate." ”

Shen Xiaoshan said: "Who said that the two of us want to break into the village? Don't forget that Guo Tai is still hidden outside the walled gate, let's record the information, and then find a way to let Guo Tai receive it outside the walled gate. ”

Cheng Yousheng slapped his forehead and said: "I almost forgot that kid from Guo Tai, it was just right that he didn't follow in, otherwise our information would really not be able to pass on to the village!" ”

Shen Xiaoshan said: "Don't be happy too early, can you pass on the information to another story!" When we entered the village, we all saw that there were at least a dozen guards at the gate of the Mocone Cottage, and there were guards guarding the left, middle and right directions of the wall. If we want to sneak up on the wall and attract Guo Tai's attention, the risk we have to bear is no smaller than following the thieves into the cottage, we must carefully investigate and grasp the opportunity, any mistake in the middle will cause death for both of us. ”

Cheng Yousheng nodded solemnly and said: "Don't worry, I have been prepared, Xiaoshan, in case of any accidents, we don't have any scruples, the most important thing is to pass on the information." ”

Shen Xiaoshan gently pushed Cheng Yousheng and gently reprimanded: "Cheng Zi, what do you say, as long as you hide it well, neither of us will have an accident, let's go!" Go to the gate of the village to see the actual situation. ”

The two groped back to the place where the gate of the Mocone Cottage was located, and saw from a distance that the light of the torches at the gate of the Mill Cone Cottage was blown out in the cold wind, and several figures around the gate could be vaguely seen shaking back and forth.

Shen Xiaoshan and the two quietly sneaked close to the location of the walled gate, Shen Xiaoshan tore off a piece of cloth on his upper body cloth, slashed the waist knife in his hand towards the index finger of his right hand, and with the help of the faint light, he wrote a line of words on the cloth crookedly, picked up a stone and wrapped the cloth around the stone.

Then Shen Xiaoshan whispered to Cheng Yousheng: "Earlier, Guo Tai said that he would hide on the south side of the walled gate, let's bypass the guards patrolling the walled gate, and find a way to sneak to the south side of the walled gate first." ”

Cheng Yousheng nodded, and then pointed to the guards at the gate of the village and said: "Xiaoshan, have you noticed it, these guards guarding the village don't seem to be the guards when we entered the village, you see these people are listless one by one, and you can still hear them scolding in their mouths, maybe this is our chance." ”

Shen Xiaoshan was puzzled: "I have noticed, it is obvious that these guards of the Zhaimen Gate have been changed from the guards of Sow Ridge to the guards of Mill Cone Mountain, I really don't know how the Lady Ridge family thinks about it, the place of the Zhai Gate is the most critical, and the thieves of Wow Ridge actually let go of the guards of Mill Cone Mountain!" ”

Cheng Yousheng shook his head and said: "The sow ridge thieves are shrewd, they will withdraw the people and horses, maybe they will withdraw from the back mountain of Mocone Mountain overnight with the remaining goods, so we can't delay any longer, we have to pass on the information quickly." ”

……

In the cold wind, a group of thieves walked over from the hiding place of Shen Xiaoshan and the others with torches, and the two carefully hid their bodies in the dark, and when the yawning guards gradually walked away, Shen Xiaoshan and the two quickly bent their waists and touched the south side of the walled gate.

Cheng Yousheng got up and hurriedly, raised his foot and touched a small piece of mountain rock on the ground, the mountain stone rolled in the dark night and made a loud sound, Cheng Yousheng suddenly became flustered, Shen Xiaoshan gently dragged Cheng Yousheng to hide his figure again, and nervously looked at the few guards patrolling in front.

A bandit patrolling in front looked around suspiciously, and muttered to the bandit in front of him in a low voice: "Did you hear it, it seems to be the sound of rolling rocks, there are other brothers patrolling around here?" ”

The thief in front opened his half-closed eyes, wrapped his leaky clothes and said, "Just your fucking ears, where is there someone patrolling in the middle of the night, hurry up and move away!" ”

The thief behind him shrank his head, threw his doubts aside, and continued to patrol with the man in front of him.

The sound of the thief in front of him reaching the ears of Shen Xiaoshan and the others, the two of them were suddenly shocked into a cold sweat, and they hid their bodies and remained motionless.

It wasn't until a few guards on patrol left that the two of them cautiously continued to touch the south side of the gate, and gradually approached the south side of the gate.

If you want to climb the wall on the south side, you must climb the steps along the road on the right side of the walled gate, and the place where the walled gate is the most closely guarded and patrolled.

With the glimmer of the torches, Cheng Yousheng looked at Shen Xiaoshan in the hope that he could come up with a way to climb the wall.

Shen Xiaoshan frowned, his eyes were fixed on the gate of the wall, this place was the brightest, Shen Xiaoshan saw that the guards here on the patrol road were standing on the wall of the wall to avoid the wind, and several people took out their cigarette bags and pots and lit them.

If these patrol guards stopped at the gate of the wall, the two of them would not be able to climb the wall smoothly, and Shen Xiaoshan would also start to get anxious.
