Three days later, the army of Huanglong Cottage embarked on the journey out of the mountain.

It's also interesting to say, the army of Huanglong Cottage has gone out of the mountain many times, such as to collect taxes or something, but any previous expedition has not had such a big repercussion as this one. When the soldiers began to assemble on the training ground in the mountain city, the villagers also began to gather.

The surroundings of the training ground were soon crowded with people, men, women, old and young, tall, short, fat and thin, and layers of human heads, spreading on the top of the mountain, almost every mountain rock was full of onlookers, and the sides of the training ground and the road down the mountain were also crowded with people.

"Kid dad! Do a good job this time! Our family can move to the city. ”

"Ergou, you beat Lao Tzu hard, and our ancestral old house will be recovered by this battle."

"Third child, make more contributions, maybe you can divide a large piece of land after the war!"

The villagers opened their throats and shouted at the men who were soldiers in their own homes, and most of the roars were carried with expectations and yearning for a better future. Although they are limited to knowledge, they do not understand many things. But no matter how simple people are, once the siege of the city is successful, the Huanglong cottage will expand a large territory, and unlike the Huanglong Mountain Range, the villages are barren mountains and mountains, and the siege of the city will get a prosperous and lively city, as well as a large area of rural areas centered on this city.

When the time comes, every soldier will be rewarded for his or her deeds.

Of course, most of the villagers are still very simple, they just want to live back to the village where they used to live, occupy their former houses and farmland, of course, if they can share a few more acres on this basis, it is a great blessing. Therefore, the villagers who have men in the family who join the army are particularly energetic. If there are no soldiers at home, they can't help but sigh!

However, those with a little insight also know that once the city is captured and there is a new stronghold, it means that the probability of being attacked by officers and soldiers will increase.

For officers and soldiers, it is easy to defend the city and difficult to attack it. For thieves, it is easier to siege the city than to defend it! The position is the opposite!

Defending the city is not as easy as defending the mountain, because the city wall of an ordinary* county town is very short, and a small city like Chengcheng, which is only two to three meters high, has a very poor defensive ability, and if the officers and soldiers counterattack in a big way, it will be easily captured. The tactic of shrinking down on the top of the mountain and throwing stones down to kill the officers and soldiers like Du Wenhuan did this time may not be applicable when defending the city.

Although there are huge benefits in going out of the mountain, there are also huge risks.

A large group of women squeezed in from outside the training ground, these women were all the wives of the leaders, Zhang Yingxian naturally walked in the front, she came to Zhu Yuanzhang's face, sighed lightly, and then held Zhu Yuanzhang's hand and said, "Xianggong...... After you take the city, take me to the city as soon as possible to live with you, only then can I ......rest assured."

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned: "You have to stay and take care of Autumn Leaves, I won't move you to the city." ”

"The daughter-in-law of the Li Chujiu family agreed, if I go to the city, she will help take care of Autumn Leaves." Zhang Yingxian insisted: "I want to be with you, and when the time comes, if the officers and soldiers counterattack the city you are stationing, I can live and die with you." ”

"That'...... Let's talk about it! ”

Zhu Wuzhang turned around and happened to see Li Sanmei stuffing something into Yang Hong's hand: "Brother Yang, there are no women in the army, so I can't take care of you this time, you have to take care of yourself, don't make yourself unkempt anymore." This package contains some of the usual supplies I have prepared, you have brought ......"

Yang Hong smiled bitterly, unwrapped the package and checked, only to see that there were many messy things inside, washed handkerchiefs, washed calf shorts, polished bronze mirrors, small wooden combs, rice balls wrapped in bamboo leaves, fire sickles and flint...... It's a small burden for department stores.

"Huh? There's a strange stuff mixed up in there. Yang Hong pulled under the package, and actually pulled out a red cloth, the fabric of this cloth is very ordinary, cotton red cloth, but if you look closely, you will find that it seems to have been cut from a very remarkable thing...... The front is embroidered with mandarin ducks...... It's just that the mandarin duck has been cut open, so only the head of the mandarin duck can be seen......

In these years, girls love to embroider mandarin ducks on their belly pockets, and they rarely do this kind of fine work on other things, especially poor girls, it is impossible to embroider ostentatiously on their coats, at most they are close clothes for many years, that is, they will carefully ponder in their belly pockets.

"A piece of cloth cut out of your belly pocket?" Yang Hong was shocked, his hand trembled, and the red cloth almost fell to the ground.

Li Sanmei hurriedly covered his mouth: "I can't say it!" She looked left and right, as if no one had noticed what Yang Hong said, so she breathed a sigh of relief and said in a low voice: "I asked the only monk in the village to help draw a spell to keep peace, but the spell must be drawn on a red cloth to be effective, and I don't have extra red cloth...... I had to ...... Well...... Cut a piece off the body...... You bring it with you, you can bless your wish and avenge your sister-in-law......"

Yang Hong was drenched in cold sweat: "If you want to make a talisman, why don't you come to me to ask for a piece of cloth?" Cut the cloth in that place...... This...... How do I carry this with me? ”

"Huh? Can't you bring it? Li Sanmei had a disappointed expression on her face: "It's been cut off, and I can't sew ......it back," she said, her hand unconsciously covering her left breast.

Of course, this unconscious action of covering his chest can't escape Yang Hong's eyes: it was actually cut from there! Yang Hong was frightened, but it was inconvenient to break it, if this was really asked, Li Sanmei would not be ashamed to death? He hesitated for a moment and sighed, "Okay, I'll bring it!" ”

"Hmmm! That's great! Li Sanmei smiled slightly, like a blooming wildflower, delicate and pleasant, her thin body blown down by the wind, especially pleasing to men, but unfortunately Yang Hong's heart was full of memories of his ex-wife, and he couldn't hold a new feeling, so he had to sigh at the kindness he released to her.

Zhu Yuanzhang saw all this scene in his eyes, and shook his head gently, everyone has their own fate, and there are some things that he can't manage, he should manage, so let them go.

and Zhu Yuanzhang saw this scene in their eyes at the same time, as well as Yingshanhong, she was quite worried that this little girl had hooked Wang Er, and now seeing her and Yang Hong's small actions, she was indescribably happy and relieved, and her attitude towards Wang Er was naturally a little better: "Boss, this time the injury on my back is not healed, I can't help you, you do my share well!" ”

Wang Erhan smiled: "It's a trivial matter!" ”

The scene of farewell, a little warm, but also a little sad, people this kind of thing, is to be at this time to dare to burst out their feelings, many young people who have not found the opportunity, just take advantage of this opportunity to say goodbye, tell each other heartfelt feelings, it seems that after this battle, as long as this group of soldiers did not die, they will have to make up hundreds of pairs.

Zhu Yuanzhang does not object to the soldiers starting a family earlier, because men are creatures, if they don't have a family or a career, they won't grow to perfection, and only by shouldering the responsibility of the family can they become more and more brave and never give up!

"Let's go!"

The whining horn sounded, and the soldiers lined up in a long snake formation and went down the hill to fight. The villagers on both sides of the road applauded enthusiastically, cheered and cried...... The sound was loud, the valley echoed continuously, and the birds flew in shock.

The little eagle of Huanglong Cottage finally spread its wings and began to fly to the outside world!

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

Whitewater City!

Yu Shi Haofu sat in the lobby of the county yamen, writing a chapter with a smile on his face. Cao Baoxiang, the county magistrate, sat on the side, with a flattering smile on his face.

Wu Fu said proudly while writing: "Du Wenhuan's house, the cowhide is blown big enough, but the loss is ugly enough, hahaha, this official will rely on this book this time, and he must be made to die." ”

Cao Baoxiang hurriedly laughed and said: "My lord, I am wise...... He was punched by Du Wenhuan last time, and he also hated that military ruffian, so after listening to Wu Fu's words, he couldn't help but smile on his face: "My lord, after you return to Beijing, can you bring the lower officials one or two, and the lower officials promise to make you cattle and horses in the future." ”

He said this to express his willingness to join the Donglin Party! In fact, he didn't have a good impression of the Donglin Party, but ...... People are often not able to do things according to their own likes and dislikes, the so-called people are under the roof, have to bow their heads, sometimes you treat a person as, but you have to nod to him, which is also helpless.

Cao Baoxiang has no ability, and he has no backstage, the position of this Baishui * county order, it is because others are unwilling to do it, he is confused, after these days of hard work, he also understands the truth that there are people in the court who are easy to do, regardless of whether he is good or evil in the Donglin Party, he just wants to climb up the big tree of Wu Fu!

It's a pity that he wants to get together with others regardless of his cheekiness, but they may not want it. Wu Fu snorted coldly and said, "You waste, what other skills do you have besides slapping your beard and slapping horses?" This official has already checked the governance of Baishui in recent years, and it is a mess, so what qualifications do you have for me to help? ”

"This ......" Cao Baoxiang was speechless, how can I manage this white water, Zhu Ba came to collect taxes when he had nothing to do, he is more like a county uncle than me, how can I govern this place where thieves are rampant? If it weren't for you, Wu Fu, who led the troops to sit here, it would be impossible for Zhu Ba to set up a stall outside the city to collect money.

He also couldn't say what he was suffering about, so he had to sit dumbfounded.

Wu Fu wanted to humiliate him a few more words, but suddenly, a military attache of a thousand households ran in from outside and said hurriedly: "Lord Qincha, the situation is not right...... The thief Kou Zhu Ba in Huanglong Mountain, was silent for a few days after the defeat of Du Wenhuan, we thought it was okay, the scout was about to withdraw and give up spying on Huanglong Cottage, but he suddenly sent troops and killed Chengcheng...... It looks like he wants to attack the city and plunder the land......"

"Huh?" Wu Fu stood up suddenly, and the pen in his hand fell to the paper with a click.
