Chapter Forty-Eight: The Unlucky Zhang * Mazi (1)

The bandit in Erlong Mountain in Hequ is called Zhang Da*zi, and his face has a pockmarked face, and Zhang *Mazi is having a very hard time now.

Zhang Da*zi does not have many bandits under his command now, only more than 100 people. Zhang * Mazi has been occupying Erlong Village in Erlong Mountain. This is a small group of bandits, this is a small group of fierce bandits, this is a small group of cunning bandits. Because this group of bandits never fights hard, but takes advantage of it. So this bandit is a bandit with money!

Zhang Da*zi sat on the tiger skin chair in the cottage justice hall, worried, and the three and four leaders looked at him directly, also worried. They are not short of money, and more than ten years of robbery have made them richer than the landlords. They are worried about food, and they are running out of food.

Zhang * Mazi originally had more than 200 subordinates, and the other 100 people were taken away by the second leader. The second leader went to collect grain, and he also had to rob gold and silver, but food was indispensable. The terrain of Erlong Mountain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, which is the reason why Zhang Da*zi chose here. However, the vegetation in Erlong Mountain is sparse and there are not many wild things, so if Zhang * Mazi and others want to eat, they have to go to collect food. If you want to make a living from hunting, you can only have one result, starve to death.

So, the second leader took a hundred bandits to collect food.

But Zhang Da*zi, who had no news of the second leader for a month, was very anxious, so he sent someone to investigate, Zhang * Mazi thought to himself, didn't the second leader leave with someone? Going to set up another portal? But why didn't you take the money in the cottage? The second leader didn't take his own money?

Facts have proved that Zhang Da * wronged the second leader, and the second leader did not take people away, let alone set up another door, and the second leader was in the river meander.

The inquirer came back with a frightened face and told Zhang Mazi: "The second leader and the hundred brothers can't come back!" ”

Zhang Da*zi was stunned: "Why can't you come back?" ”

The inquirer cried and scolded, "It's so fucking ruthless!" Then he began to speak in fits and starts.

It turned out that the timing of the second leader going down the mountain was not right, and at that time, Li Guo was leading people to carry out land reform. At that time, Li Guo was afraid that the reform would not be successful, and at that time, Li Guo tried every possible way to find an opportunity to win the hearts of the people, but at that time, the second leader wanted to go to collect grain!

As a result, the second leader was very unlucky. The heads of the two chiefs and a hundred brethren were hung from the high walls of the city.

Zhang * Mazi was angry in his heart and wanted to immediately take someone down the mountain to avenge his brother! He's a man of righteousness! He will never spare the man who killed his brother!

So, Zhang Da * Zi made three bowls of wine in a row, and after crying bitterly and making a heartfelt oath to declare war, he told sΓΉ brothers, revenge is to be avenged, not now, we have to wait, we can't fight hard! Those officers and soldiers whose origins are unknown will not stay in the meanders for a long time!

So, after waiting for another two or three months, Zhang * Mazi didn't wait, not simply to avenge the second master, but because the food was about to run out.

You can't wait any longer, you'll starve to death if you wait! So, Zhang Da* took the remaining more than 100 brothers down the mountain to take revenge.

But why don't you go to the meanders for revenge? Zhang * Mazi knows how many catties and taels he has, and he will go to Hequ to take revenge? Impatient to live? So, not only did the meanders go. Zhang Da*zi looked at several big towns in Zhaozhen, shook his head, and led the people to a very small village.

However, it is very unfortunate that although Li Guo had ordered Li Twelve, Quan Zhihuan and others to go to the old camp for a meeting at this time, Niu Decao happened to be in this village.

Zhang * Mazi confidently killed this village called Wang Tun.

Before rushing to kill, Zhang Da * had already instructed the brothers, "Brothers, what we want to rob this time is not gold, nor silver, but grain!" It doesn't matter if it's a bun of grain, sweet potatoes, potatoes or bran, let's not leave it behind! ”

Everyone said yes and rushed over.

But far away from the village, there was a gong on the wall, Zhang * Mazi was stunned for a moment, slowed down, what's going on? Discovered? It's okay, this little village can't be broken? In the past, since these bandits, which of the common people did not tremble? Which one didn't open his eyes and struck the gong today? Grandma's, no, you have to rectify these untouchables.

Because Zhang * Mazi paused in his steps, he saved his life, otherwise he might have died a long time ago.

Niu Decao's arrival at Wangtun was purely accidental, and he just went to various villages to inspect the buildings of the fence. Li Guo gave the order to die, no matter how big or small the village, the wall should be high. Particularly small villages should be merged into large villages. Therefore, Wangtun, which is not too big but has a good location, has become a big village after a few small villages that have come over, and the walled wall has also been repaired to the old high.

It was still morning when Niu Decao arrived at Wangtun, but he found that there was a section of the wall that had not yet been completed. Therefore, in addition to criticizing Dai Zuoxin, the primary school that led Wang Tun, he personally led the people of Quantun to repair that section of the wall.

"Little Dai." Niu Decao finished repairing the wall, learned from Li Guo's appearance, and patted Dai Zuoxin's shoulder cordially, "Although you haven't been with the tiger master as long as me, but you are also an old man, and we have to implement what the tiger master said no matter what." ”

"Brother Niu, I know." Dai Zuoxin saw Niu Decao and did not reprimand him harshly, and his heart was relieved.

"Actually, I don't fully understand what Master Tiger wants us to do, but there must be a reason for him. Those of us who are subordinates must be implemented, and we must share more for the tiger master, after a long time, we will understand the tiger master's intentions. "Niu Decao is blind obedience to Li Guo, but sometimes blind obedience is also good.

"Brother Niu, I know I was wrong, I didn't repair the wall on time, and I will never make a mistake like this in the future." Dai Zuoxin said sincerely.

Niu Decao nodded, "That's fine, Xiao Dai, have all the sentry people been placed?" ”

"Brother Niu, you can rest assured to sleep, every day I and a few other people will check the sentry, the sentry is the group of the land protection group, if someone is not on duty or dozing off, they will be fined food, now the food is tight, they dare not relax!" Dai Zuoxin replied.

"Well, okay, then I'll go to sleep, I believe I can sleep peacefully with you." Niu Decao was too busy during this time, and he was really tired, so he went to sleep.

Before going to bed, Niu Decao ordered his soldiers to load the two muskets they had captured before. In fact, this is also Niu Decao's unintentional move, because when he followed Li Guo on the march before, Li Guo had ordered when the whole army was stationed in the camp that even if he was sleeping, he must be ready for battle. Cows have grass to form a habit.

Dai Zuoxin felt ashamed in his heart, so he was more serious when he patrolled. As every day, the guards were very conscientious, and Dai Zuoxin was very satisfied. When inspecting to the south gate of the village, Dai Zuoxin chatted with the group guarding the village. Suddenly, Tuan Ding pointed ahead, "Master Dai Whistle, is that our people?" ”

Dai Zuoxin also saw it, and a torch suddenly lit up not far ahead, as if to remind them. Dai Zuoxin hesitated, maybe it's not the enemy, where does the enemy have a torch? But Dai Zuoxin still ordered: "Knock on the gong!" ”
