Chapter 70: Zhu Hong's Ambition

At this moment, in a jungle about three miles away from Fang Yunjun's army, Zhu Hong and his sons were probing their brains, cautiously looking at the bright position in the distance.

They are the thieves entrenched in the territory of Shangcai, of course, not domestic dogs, but veritable wild dogs, wild dogs that eat people.

Zhu Hong is entrenched in the mountains and forests, and since his grandfather's generation began to fall into the grass, he is still the third generation of the family. He was able to become the head of the family at the age of twenty-seven, mainly because not long ago, his father accidentally had a quarrel with a local family, which led to a fight and finally died early.

After that fight, he understood that the power of the family was constantly expanding, and the family that could be bullied by them casually in the past now has a large number of weapons and family members, and the most important thing is that the family has also learned to hold each other together.

If it weren't for the fact that a lot of homeless people have been collected in recent years, I am afraid that this weapon fight can already hurt the vitality of the cottage. However, from another point of view, if it weren't for the great increase in the strength of the cottage, the father of the second generation would not have been so arrogant to quarrel with the local family.

After all, starting from my grandfather's generation, it was the established strategy of Shanzhai to exploit unrelated untouchables and traders, and to let go or even help local families to escort them. It is precisely because of this that their cottage has not been eradicated for 50 years.

However, not long ago, with the fight between his father and the family, the relationship between the two sides has broken down, and the cottage has entered an extraordinary period. At this time, after the report of the eyeliner, a large army of the Yellow Turban Army broke away and came towards Shangcai.

The cottage is in Shangcai County, and no one can guarantee whether the other party will attack the cottage. Even if it doesn't, no one can guarantee that this army will not attack the family here. It's okay to kill the family, in case they are scared and run away, he can be regarded as having no way to take revenge, and he is determined to avenge his father, but he has to abide by the strategy formulated by his grandfather, he thought of a way.

That is, he personally came forward to send a large number of gifts, and spent seventy percent of the savings of the cottage, so that the family forgave his father for his previous mistakes, and at the same time agreed to his request, and sent someone to carry out this ambush with him!

The families are not stupid, this Yellow Turban Army unit that does not listen to Yuan Valve's arrangement and kills in another direction independently is definitely not good. Rather than being plagued by them, it's better to strike first!

Perhaps, after the previous weapon fight and Zhu Hong's initiative to admit his mistakes, these families have begun to become blind and arrogant.

This time, including Zhu Hong's team, the three families of the Chen family, the Mo family and the Zhang family sent a total of 8,000 troops, which can be regarded as mobilizing more than eighty percent of the family's troops. Among them, 3,500 people are still from Zhuhong Cottage, and most of them are newly recruited displaced people.

Even so, with the cooperation of the three families, most of these soldiers changed into leather armor, shields and ring-headed knives. Of course, most of them are mainly practical spears, after all, this thing is the cheapest.

As for the crossbow...... I'm sorry, but the most forbidden thing in the imperial court is the strong crossbow, except for a few workshops, and even the Han Dynasty no one will make this thing. In addition, the supervision is very strict, so unless it is those old door valves that can get three or five hundred pairs, they are small families in these places, naturally don't expect it.

In any case, with such a scale, it shouldn't be a problem to fight a night raid battle!

"Chief, there is no movement in the camp, they should be asleep!" A spy came to report at this time.

"What is the situation of the sentries in the enemy camp at the moment?" Zhu Hong asked vigilantly.

"There are only a few sentinels patrolling, and they deserve to die!" The spy said excitedly.

"Virtuous nephew, will this Yellow Turban Army behave like this?" The head of the Mo family asked cautiously.

"Brother Mo, the Yellow Turban Army is nothing more than a force of untouchables, and it is barely trained. It's good that such a unit can have sentinels, but I'm afraid that under normal circumstances, even the sentries will secretly nap is normal! The head of the family surnamed Zhang next to him said disapprovingly.

"We've been in ambush here for two hours, I can't stand this mosquito 'buzzing' place anymore, get rid of them early, let's go back!" The head of the Chen family said impatiently.

It is said that although the three of them are just small local families, whether they are merchant families or landlord families, they are pampered but they have not run. Even if you can't live a luxurious life, it's really never been like this to squat in the grass for two hours!

Seriously, it's a rare experience, but if you can, you don't want to have a next time!

The head of the family should enjoy a little life in his own dock fort, calculate this year's income, and gather and drink together with everyone who is appropriately vassal and elegant, this is life. Fighting a war or something, that's a big man's business, what's the matter with them?

If it weren't for the edict issued by the Han court some time ago, allowing local governments to form volunteer armies to fight against thieves, and promising to grant official positions and other material rewards after the thieves, I am afraid that they would not want to wade into this troubled water.

"Three, do you think it's more comfortable to passively resist their attack in the dock fort? Or will it be more comfortable to destroy them with a night raid and then do it once and for all? Zhu Hong had to mention it again, even if it had been mentioned five times this time, and the effectiveness seemed to be getting worse and worse......

"Got it, if it weren't for your words, what would we be doing here?" The head of the Chen family waved his hand and said impatiently.

As a descendant of the Yingchuan Chen clan, he wanted to call himself a disciple of the gate valve, and he disdained to associate with thieves in this kind of place. Speaking of which, some time ago, the battle of words between Zhu Hong's father and the family began with his casual scolding, and it was out of control.

Therefore, strictly speaking, the head of the Chen family is still Zhu Hong's father-killing enemy, so he naturally looks at Zhu Hong unhappy.

"Nephew, then you say, what should we do now?" The head of the Mo family asked. Compared with the two old families, the head of the Mo family, who was born in a merchant family, spoke more mellowly, and of course hid it deeper, this kind of person is the best at selling teammates, mainly by enough benefits!

"Now that the opponent has rested, let the three lead the front and attack them from the front to attract their attention. As long as they go into battle, gather as a force and attack, or find it difficult for them to retreat. The rest will be handed over to the little nephew to deal with, and the little nephew will directly enter their handsome tent from behind and take the head of their commander! With a smile, Zhu Hong expressed his opinion, which he had been planning since the beginning of the ambush.

"If we don't help, isn't it dangerous for our nephews?" The head of the Mo family was overjoyed, but he still asked with a concerned expression.

"Don't get in the way, just the Yellow Turban Army, I, Zhu Hong, don't care about it!" Zhu Hong smiled and said with great confidence.

The rest of the matter was also easier, seeing that it was now cloudy, and the clouds were obscuring the moonlight in the sky, the group took advantage of the darkness of the night and quietly moved towards the position of the Yellow Turban Army. Compared to them in the dark, the brightly lit camp was as dazzling as a 500-watt light bulb.

In Zhu Hong's eyes, the other party is completely dying, exposing everything in front of others, isn't it asking others to attack at night?
