Chapter 69: Suspicion Countermeasures
The eyes of the high leader of Mocone Mountain flashed, and he suddenly patted the armrest of the chair, and said loudly: "Huluyan is the closest to Mocone Mountain, and it is possible for them to find out about such a big movement in Mocone Mountain, are these people Huluyan's people and horses?" ”
He turned his head and asked Liu Xiang, who was kneeling on the ground, "Do you have any brothers who were suddenly injured by the flying hidden weapon and quickly collapsed to the ground with weakness!" ”
Liu Xiang said: "When we rushed through a dense forest with Leader Chen, many brothers were injured by hidden weapons, and as you said, they quickly collapsed to the ground. ”
The high leader slapped his thigh, turned his head to Chen Youpeng and said: "Don't be suspicious, the great commander doesn't have to be suspicious, these horses are Huluyan thieves, Huluyan people and horses have always been cunning, and our cottage commander was killed by them with a secret weapon." Ay! Now that I think about it, I can't regret it, and I shouldn't let those people leave calmly! ”
Chen Youpeng didn't seem to believe what Leader Gao said, and asked with a gloomy face: "Brother Gao, don't forget, more than a dozen days ago, Sow Ridge and Mill Cone Mountain joined forces to ambush and kill most of the elites of Huluyan, how could there be so many super-powerful guards in Huluyan in such a short period of time?" ”
The man surnamed Gao hesitated a little, frowned and patted the arm of the chair, and said to himself: "Which side will it be?" Could it be that the thief from the aunt has arrived! It's not right, if the aunt is a thief here, he will definitely attack Mocone Mountain non-stop......"
glanced at Chen Youpeng and said, "Hmph! It seems that these thieves are also some cowards, if they dare to attack the Grinding Cone Cottage Gate, I Lao Gao and the guards of the Grinding Cone Mountain, they will definitely let them taste the bitterness. ”
The defeated soldiers kneeling in the hall looked at this high leader one by one like idiots, where did this high leader jump out, how could they know the difficulty of that group of thieves if they hadn't experienced fighting with that guy! It's really unbelievable here!
Chen Youpeng said: "Don't worry about that force for now, now we must first strengthen the vigilance of Mocone Mountain to prevent this group of people from attacking at night." Brother Gao, you go and gather your henchmen to assist the guards of Sow Ridge to defend all parts of the cottage, especially to strengthen the defense of the village. In addition, you can find more people to load the materials in the square, and strive to transfer the materials in the square from the back mountain back to Sow Ridge before dawn. Don't worry, brother, the conditions I promised you will never change in the slightest. ”
The man surnamed Gao's face became a little ugly, and he said reluctantly: "Great Commander, there are still many old and young people in this cottage, and the Great Commander will transport away the food and property at all, and the old and young people in this Mill Cone Mountain will not be able to live." ”
Chen Youpeng's eyes flashed, and he said in a dark voice: "Why do you care so much, when the time comes, you lead your subordinates to join Sow Ridge, what does the life and death of these people have to do with you!" ”
The man surnamed Gao swallowed a mouthful of saliva violently, looking at Chen Youpeng's gloomy face, and the rest of the pleading words were not easy to speak.
What Chen Youpeng said is also right, this world can ensure that he does not have to worry about food and clothing, and what does it matter to him whether the people of Mocone Villa live or die!
Mill Cone Mountain is no longer what it used to be, as soon as the Mill Cone Tiger died, the cottage was immediately torn apart, and all the leaders wanted to be the commanders. is still smart, secretly united with the Great Commander of Sow Ridge Chen, and killed several other leaders of Mill Cone Mountain in one fell swoop...... Anyway, in the future, he and his brothers will leave Mocone Mountain, and there is really no need to worry about the life and death of the old and young in Mocone Mountain!
Thinking of this, the high leader suddenly stood up, patted his chest and said: "Commander Chen doesn't need to say more, my brother's life will be sold to Commander Chen, and I will do what you tell me immediately, and there will definitely be no mistakes." As he spoke, he turned and walked out of the hall.
Chen Youpeng's triangular eyes stared at the back of the man surnamed Gao, and said with a yin in his mouth: "Then please Brother Gao!" ”
It wasn't until the man surnamed Gao didn't see anyone that he said to the thieves standing under the hall: "Don't kneel, I don't blame you for the rout today, if you encounter this group of thieves again, the commander will come to avenge your leader Chen and your dead brother!" Go find a place to rest first! ”
"Commander Xie Chen, the villains will go down first." Liu Xiang and other thieves kowtowed to Chen Youpeng and withdrew from the Mocone Mountain Hall.
Chen Youpeng looked at the group of people retreating from the hall with an "um", and casually ordered the guards standing behind him: "Go and gather a few leaders here immediately, just say that the commander has something important to order." ”
"Obedience"
The guards withdrew from the meeting hall in response, and Chen Youpeng frowned and continued to think. After a while, four men who were slightly excited came in one after another outside the council hall.
Entering the council hall, I found that I saw that Grand Commander Chen was sitting on the Taishi chair, his face was gloomy, and the four of them each put away their excited expressions, and knelt down to bow to Chen Youpeng: "I have seen the Grand Commander, please give the Grand Commander's orders." ”
Chen Youpeng seemed to be deep in thought, and after a while, he frowned and said, "The four leaders are here, all get up and find chairs to sit down, and tell me what good goods are in this Mill Cone Mountain!" ”
"Commander Xie gave me the seat." The four of them sat down in order, and from the appearance of the four of them, they were in awe of Commander Chen.
One of the leaders closest to Chen Youpeng said: "Back to the commander, the specific amount seized is not yet accurate, and now more than 700 stones of grain, more than 900 taels of snowflake silver, more than 100 pieces of silk cloth, and a batch of gold and silver jewelry have been found from the residences of several leaders in Mocone Mountain. These are nothing, the most important harvest is to get more than a hundred spears and waist knives and other blades, as well as a set of louvered iron armor that the original grinding cone tiger has, and a batch of iron materials. ”
Chen Youpeng laughed excitedly: "Hahaha, okay!" It seems that this trip is really not in vain, we have these materials in Sow Ridge, see if the thieves at the top of that peak dare to provoke us in the future! ”
Speaking of this, his face suddenly became gloomy, and he said: "There is good news, there is bad news, Chen Xian's men have just escaped from the foot of the mountain, according to them, Chen Xian and his subordinates were ambushed by a group of foreign thieves when they were chasing a group of thieves who spied on the reality of the Mill Cone Mountain, Chen Xian was killed, most of Chen Xian's men were captured alive, and only more than ten people fled back to report the news. ”
Chen Youpeng's big commander in Sow Ridge is a word, although the four leaders have a look of surprise on their faces, they will never interject and say more, and the four of them look at Chen Youpeng with blank eyes.
Chen Youpeng pondered for a while and then said, "This great commander thought about it for a long time and didn't guess where this man came from?" In order to prevent too many dreams at night, we need to change our course of action. ”
Speaking of this, he looked at the four of his subordinates and waited for them to make a statement, and the four of them said in unison: "Please ask the commander to order, and the villains will definitely do it." ”
Chen Youpeng nodded with satisfaction, stroked his forehead and said: "Our raid on Mocone Mountain this time can be said to be bloodless, the people and horses who resisted in Mocone Cottage have been killed by us, and the only thing left is surnamed Gao and his more than 100 subordinates, these people are subordinate to our Sow Ridge, and everything must be in accordance with the rules of Sow Ridge when they arrive at Sow Ridge, so there is no need to worry about these people." ”
He found his own train of thought and continued: "The old foundation of Mocone Mountain has been seized by us in the past few years, I just heard Leader Zhang talk about this harvest, the foundation of this Mocone Mountain is quite thick!" Now it's time to find a way to get the captured supplies back to Sow Ridge as soon as possible. ”
"Sow Ridge is twenty miles away from the Mill Cone Mountain, there is no force that can threaten the Sow Ridge within this twenty miles, the original plan of the Great Commander will be two batches of the materials seized on the Mill Cone back to our Sow Ridge, presumably the general small group of bandits do not dare to come up to entangle, but the sudden appearance of people and horses under the mountain is unpredictable.
Chen Youpeng put down the hand that was stroking his forehead, and looked directly at the four of them: "So the Great Commander has decided to change his plan, and most of the captured must be transported down to the Mill Cone Mountain tonight!" ”
The four leaders of the sow ridge thieves looked at each other, and the leader Zhang who was sitting closest to Chen Youpeng said: "Back to the commander, there are too many seizures in the square, and the villains are worried that they will not be able to complete the shipment tonight!" In addition, the money and grain of the farmers in the Mocone Mountain Grain Depot and the village have not yet had time to be paid, and the sum of these grains is not a small amount, so why not postpone it for a few days. ”
Chen Youpeng's slender face sank, and he said in an unhappy tone: "You can ship as much as you can, pick up the valuable shipments first, and the rest of the goods, if there are no thieves to disturb them, you can transport them away calmly, and the money and grain of the cottage households can also be cleared." If that gang of thieves attacks the cottage tomorrow, we will at least take away most of the goods in Mill Cone Mountain! ”
"Yes, yes, yes, the villain was stupid and almost delayed the great commander's big thing." The leader hurriedly left the seat and knelt down to admit his mistake.
Chen Youpeng continued to stroke his forehead and said: "Nearly 100 of our brothers fell into the hands of those thieves, in case they attack and polish Cone Mountain and use our brothers to threaten us, what do you say we should do?" ”
The person sitting at the head of the leader said: "We will shrink our hands and feet, and we will fall into passivity." ”
Chen Youpeng said: "Leader Song is right, it is impossible for our own people to hurt our own people, so we will be taken advantage of by those thieves." Our sow ridge has lost so much at once, and the rest of the brothers can't have any more accidents. Therefore, the commander arranged for the high leader of Mocone Mountain to lead his men to patrol and guard the gate of the village, withdraw most of our brothers, load the goods with all their might, and then return to Sow Ridge overnight with the supplies. ”
Chen Youpeng turned his gaze to the two people sitting closest to him and said: "After tonight, Leader Zhang and Leader Song will lead your guards to set off from the back mountain of Mo Cone Mountain, and escort most of the goods and materials to return to Sow Ridge by detouring to Xiaoguding and Chashan. ”
The two leaders, Zhang and Song, who were sitting at the top, hurriedly knelt on the ground to receive the order.
"Leader Wang, Leader Han, the two of you will distribute your subordinates around the square, and the people of the Mill Cone Mountain Villa who supervise the transportation of materials in the square will not allow them to be lazy, and in addition, do not relax the surveillance of the surnamed Gao and his men, and do not allow them to approach the square casually, and select more women from the village to escort the mountain together."
The leader of the king and the leader of the Han at the bottom said with a smile: "Don't worry, the great commander, if you dare to keep commanding the miscellaneous pieces of the grinding cone mountain, the villain's knife will not be polite to him." ”
"Alright, do as the Great Commander says, and go out!" Chen Youpeng is worthy of being the leader of Sow Ridge, and in a blink of an eye, he can see the situation more clearly than me, and the arrangements are not leaky.
The four leaders stood up and saluted respectfully, and then turned to go out.
Chen Youpeng sat alone on the chair, his left hand rhythmically tapping on the armrest of the chair, frowning and muttering to himself: "Where did the people come from, I don't know what happened to Chen Xian's subordinates when they fell into their hands?" This is not a place to stay for long......"
