Desperately San Lang followed Zhu Yuanzhang's instructions and told the story, he really regarded himself as a survivor on the Dongzi Cliff, and spent a lot of time every day telling the soldiers about the destruction of Zheng Yanfu and his gang, of course, how powerful the officers and soldiers were, only how bad the officers and soldiers were, Zhao Yu and his gang obviously surrendered, and were slaughtered by the officers and soldiers at night.

The mountain is more bitter, and everyone has no other entertainment, of course, they are willing to listen to the story, pass it on, and the story quickly spread in the cottage, and everyone can recite it backwards. And it soon became various versions, what officers and soldiers washed the cave cliff in blood, officers and soldiers attacked Zhao Datou at night, officers and soldiers killed and surrendered soldiers, and so on.

Just when this story was spread most hotly, the news that the officers and soldiers had entered the mountains to suppress the bandits came at the right time!

Yang Hong, a thousand households in Xi'an Prefecture, led the soldiers of the thousand households under his jurisdiction and entered Huanglong Mountain. This news immediately provoked a great reaction in the cottage, like throwing a pebble on the surface of a calm lake.

"It's Yang Hong! Oh, my God! Isn't this the military general who exterminated Zheng Yanfu? ”

"Can we win?"

"Whether you can win or not, in short, you can't surrender, didn't you hear Zhao Yu's fate? He surrendered to Yang Hong after killing Zheng Yanfu, but was still killed......"

"Yes, instead of surrendering and being killed, it is better to fight with the officers and soldiers!"

"I'd rather die than be killed inexplicably in the middle of the night."

"Right...... Fight! ”

At the same time that the soldiers and people in the cottage secretly made up their minds to fight with the officers and soldiers, Zhu Yuanzhang also gathered his core team together and started a military discussion.

Looking at the subordinates around him who came to participate in the military meeting, Zhu Yuanzhang was generally not very satisfied, in the last life, he held a military conference, who were the people who came to the meeting? Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, Liu Bowen, Li Shanchang...... The mere utterance of these names was enough to scare off an army of 100,000. But now...... Wang Er, Desperate Saburo, Li Chujiu, Ma Xiaotian...... That's a bit of a big difference.

There's no way, let's rely on our own efforts, and when the power grows, it is possible to get better talents. And...... These few people who are not very powerful, after years of fighting, can also slowly become stronger.

"Li Chujiu!" Zhu Yuanzhang took the lead in calling Li Chujiu's name: "The rolling wood and stones used to defend the cottage are all handed over to you to be responsible, these things are not afraid of more, only afraid of less, go and prepare as much as possible." In addition, the distribution of food in wartime is different from that in peacetime, and the soldiers have to be fed up, so you go and redistribute the food and give the soldiers more food. ”

"Yes!" Li Chujiu replied respectfully.

In the previous life, Zhu Yuanzhang used to manage food and ordnance was Li Shanchang, which can be regarded as a coincidence, Li Chujiu used in this life is also surnamed Li, but in terms of ability, Li Shanchang's starting point is much higher, he is a famous local figure, and "Chu Tong Wen Mo", Li Chujiu "does not know Wen Mo", can only know a very limited number of words, and he is not a famous person, just a few days as the steward of the Ma family.

Zhu Yuanzhang was not very worried about this part, so he added: "If there is anything you don't understand, come and ask me more!" ”

"Definitely!" Li Chujiu is more similar to Li Shanchang in one point, that is, he is very low-key and obedient.

After arranging Li Chujiu's logistics, Zhu Yuanzhang turned his head and said to the desperate San Lang: "The matter of defending the cottage will be handed over to you!" You assign the soldiers to guard the various dangerous places on the mountain, and practice the use of rolling logs and stones several times in advance, and if the officers and soldiers come to attack the mountain, you have to defend it desperately for me. ”

The reason why this position was handed over to Desperate Saburo was because he had done it at the beginning, when he was in Dongzi Cliff, Zheng Yanfu lost to the officers and soldiers in the battle on the flat ground, but when he was defending the mountain, he successfully repelled the attack of the officers and soldiers, and as a result, the officers and soldiers adopted a strategy to attack the heart......

So Zhu Yuanzhang thinks that Desperate Saburo can do this job well! Although he has a nickname called Desperate Saburo, he sounds like a person who can charge, but he is actually a general who is good at defense.

Desperate Saburo nodded and responded, "I'll do a good job!" We must not lose to officers and soldiers! ”

He is a person who has "died" once, and he will be more stable than last time when facing officers and soldiers, and among all his subordinates, Zhu Yuanzhang is the most relieved of him.

At this time, Wang Er was in a hurry, he was originally a anxious surname, and he especially liked to mix in the war, so he shouted beside him: "Brother Zhu, arrange for me quickly...... Do you want me to lead the charge? Haha, I've wanted to charge for a long time......"

Zhu Yuanzhang glared at him: "Who said to charge?" I'm not going to play against officers and soldiers. ”

"What? Not against each other? Wang Er was taken aback and said depressedly: "How can you fight if you don't fight?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned: "Although our soldiers have been training for several months, if we fight against officers and soldiers now, the possibility of defeat is still very large, because everyone is afraid of officers and soldiers in their bones, and I don't want to take this risk!" ”

"Then ......" Wang Er was anxious: "You have to let me do something, right?" ”

"Well, there's something you did!" Zhu Yuanzhang said seriously: "You pack a few close-fitting clothes, bring a bag of dry food, and prepare to follow me out." ”

"Huh? Going out at this time? What are you going to do? "Wang Er Daqi.

Zhu Yuanzhang ignored him, and turned to Ma Xiaotian and said, "You go and call the other thirty-four best brothers, prepare a few clothes and a bag of dry food, if you can eat for a month, we have a job to do." ”

Everyone didn't know what kind of medicine he sold in the gourd, until Ma Xiaotian and other thirty-five brothers arrived, Zhu Yuanzhang said to Wang Er and them: "The officers and soldiers have entered the mountain, you must know that Huanglong Mountain is not an ordinary mountain, there are thousands of ravines here, the terrain is complicated, we have been in the mountain for several months, only to find out a small piece of terrain, the officers and soldiers have just arrived, they must not be familiar with the terrain, we just took advantage of the time when the officers and soldiers groped the mountain road, to play a game of hide and seek with them." ”

"This ...... How to play? Wang Er's face was dazed.

Zhu Yuanzhang said very seriously: "Dig a trap in the east and set up a trap in the west...... Just deal with officers and soldiers like children playing games. Second Brother Wang, didn't you often go into the mountains to chop firewood in the past, and occasionally hunt? The ability to dig pits and set traps should not be bad. ”

"I do know that, but these things don't work against an army!" Wang Erda Khan.

"That's right, it won't cause any substantial damage, but ......" Zhu Yuanzhang said very seriously: "If you can shake the morale a little, that's enough!" The biggest difference between our soldiers and our officers and men is morale, and we must make up for this shortcoming. ”

Huanglong Mountain, South!

It has been two days since Yang Hong's army entered Huanglong Mountain and is advancing in the direction of Zhu Yuanzhang's cottage.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang chose to settle down in the vast mountains, but as long as people can go to the place, don't want to keep a permanent secret, in the first few months, the officers and soldiers recruited many hunters, and then sent the most powerful "night do not collect" (that is, elite scouts) in the army, it took a few months to find out the location of the cottage, so this time Yang Hong led the troops to suppress the bandits, and did not run around in the mountains like headless flies.

Along the way, there were night harvests and Orions leading the way, and it was not too difficult to walk.

But Yang Hong is still very unaccustomed to the strange terrain here. Sometimes his army walked through a flat wood, and as they walked, the scouts in front of them suddenly turned, and the seemingly smooth road was gone, and a cliff stood in front of them...... In order to get around this cliff, an army of more than 500 people had to go around in a large circle, which was really laborious and laborious.

Sometimes he saw Ye Bushu leading him towards a mountain wall, and he was about to protest how this could be done, when suddenly he saw a crack in the mountain wall that could be penetrated by a man, and as a result, more than five hundred soldiers, one by one, got into the crack in the stone, like a swarm of rats burrowing holes.

Other times, his army marched in the ravine, and his feet were forced to step on the cold stream, he was an officer, and it didn't matter if he wore leather boots, but the soldiers were a little unbearable, most of them wore straw sandals, and the instep and other parts were bare, and one foot stepped into the stream, not to mention how cool it was. Although it was spring, the water in the mountain stream was much colder than that outside the mountain, and it was really not humanly capable of soaking one's feet in such water for a long time.

"What the hell!" Yang Hong couldn't help but curse indignantly: "These damn rogues actually chose to build a cottage in such a ghost place. ”

A middle-aged man beside Yang Hong also sighed: "This place is indeed full of difficulties. ”

This man was wearing a cotton shirt, his appearance was plain, with a little stability, his brows were furrowed, and he had a sad countenance. He is actually the chief steward of the Ma family, Ma Qianjiu.

Why did Ma Qianjiu get mixed up with Yang Hong? That's a long story!

It turned out that after Zhu Yuanzhang rebelled, he robbed Zhang Yingxian, that is, the second young grandmother of the Ma family, and also robbed all the grain stored by the Ma family, and set fire to the Ma family's old house, all of which was to help the Ma family get rid of the crime, but in the eyes of the Ma family, it became a great shame. The people of the Ma family secretly congratulated that most of the family had moved to Xi'an, and vowed to give Zhu Ba and his gang a good look.

In this case, the Ma family got the news that Yang Hong was going to lead the army to exterminate Zhu Ba and his gang, and Ma Zhibin, the second young master of the Ma family, did not hesitate to take out a sum of money to Yang Hong, in the name of Lao Jun, but in fact, he wanted to buy Zhu Ba's head! Meantime...... I also have to buy Zhang Yingxian's head, because Zhang Yingxian was robbed by bandits, and her chastity must not be saved, and the second young master must kill this lady who corrupts the door style in order to save face.

Ma Qianjiu came with the army to recognize people, which is the same as when Qiu Ye was sent to identify Zheng Yanfu.

Some friends who live in modern times may not understand, Zhang Yingxian is obviously a victim, how did she become a corrupt man? This one...... Alas, it can only be said that women in ancient times were not easy to be! I advise those girls who dream of traveling back to ancient times, wake up! It is better to be a sow in modern times than to be a woman in ancient times.
