Now the old Dongjiang general Kong Youde suddenly launched a mutiny, and the old Dongjiang Army under his command are all brave people, who has never seen blood on hand!

Now that they have rebelled, they will definitely sweep a large area in a short period of time, and Dengzhou Mansion must be the first to bear the brunt, because a large number of old departments of the Dongjiang Army are concentrated here, if Kong Youde wants to develop and grow, he will definitely come back here to recruit the old departments of the Dongjiang River, as well as those Liao people.

And Muping County is not far from Dengzhou Capital, but it is more than 200 miles away, if the cavalry runs happily, it will be able to reach the city of Muping County in one day.

If the Dengzhou Mansion can't stop this group of rebels, then the joke will be a big deal! It is estimated that there is no place in the entire Dengzhou Mansion that can be spared from the military disaster, so all of a sudden Ninghai Prefecture was in chaos, and even if the city gate was closed, Muping County began to strengthen its vigilance, waiting for the next news.

As for the townships and villages, after the news spread, they all suddenly became nervous, which is the prelude to the chaos! Even if the rebels were exterminated by the governor of Denglai under the city of Dengzhou this time, they would definitely not be able to kill them all, and the routs would definitely have to run around, and who would dare to say that the rebels would not run to their side to make a profit?

Therefore, all the townships and villages also hurriedly strengthened their vigilance, and drove away the hungry people who had gathered around, for fear that they would be coerced into the gang by the chaotic soldiers, and when the time came, they would invade their villages.

As soon as Liu Wei learned the news, he immediately ordered to start strengthening the vigilance of Xishan Village and Tuweizi on Yangma Island, and now the rear headquarters of the sea wolf has sent two platoons to Liu Wei, a full force of 100 people, these people are all dressed in civilian clothes, and they appeared in Xishan Village as Liu He's family, ostensibly the regiment trained by Xishan Village.

But the discerning person can see that these people are definitely not ordinary village warriors, these people are strong, powerful, and between their demeanor, there is a faint sense of slaughter, it can be determined that these people are actually from the background of soldiers, and they are not ordinary soldiers, they are definitely some soldiers.

During this time, Liu Wei opened a porridge shed outside Xishan Village to give porridge, and there were many hungry people in this area, among which there were naturally some ruffians and strongmen with bad intentions, they found that there was a lot of food hoarded in Xishan Village, and a lot of food porridge would be taken out every day, so some people wanted to gather people to make trouble here and take the opportunity to make a profit.

More recently, Liu Wei has purchased a large number of women, and many people think that there are a lot of women hoarded in the village or in the Tuwei of Yangma Island, and if they can break through here, they will definitely be able to make a big deal of fun, and at the same time, they can also play with a lot of women.

So some people tried to gather people here to make trouble, but soon they found that if they wanted to make trouble here, it was simply looking for death, Liu Wei had a large group of tigers and wolves on hand, and several times they had just been provoked by them, and before they had time to make a complete trouble, they immediately had a group of wolf-like family members rushed out of the Zhuangzi, each holding a long stick or spear, and a few people were equipped with a single knife.

The number of these people is not much, but as long as they find that someone is trying to provoke trouble, they will immediately rush over and press it, and the person who leads the troublemaker often can't walk down even one face, and will be dragged to the ground by this group of wolf-like tigers, dragging them into Zhuangzi like a dead dog, and the next day someone will find that these troublemakers died far away, and the death was quite terrifying, and almost all of them were broken bones all over the body, like a mess of mud.

Therefore, there have been many attempts to come here, but the end is very miserable, and this momentum has been suppressed, so that many young people no longer dare to fight the idea of this Xishan Village.

During this period, there was even a group of bandits of about 300 people, trying to storm Xishan Village and rob it, but as soon as they were killed outside Xishan Village, a string of firecrackers sounded on the wall of Xishan Village.

These villagers and family members of Xishan Village didn't know where to get a large number of spears, formed a phalanx, and pushed them over one by one, more than 300 bandits, even if they were like rolling soup and pouring snow, they were beaten by the regimental training of Xishan Village, and more than 100 were killed, and the rest were driven away, and dozens of bandits were also arrested.

The next day, Liu Dashan of Xishan Village sent people to send these dozens of bandits to the Yamen of Muping County, Ninghai Prefecture, and was also greatly praised by the Lord Zhizhou, who called Liu Dashan a model of thieves in Ninghai Prefecture.

So for a while, it really suppressed the surrounding guys who tried to harbor ill intentions towards Xishan Village, so that they didn't dare to covet Xishan Village again in a short period of time.

But now Kong Youde suddenly launched a mutiny, led his troops from Cangzhou all the way to Dengzhou, and returned to Dengzhou Mansion, which made Liu Wei also nervous.

Although he currently has the strength, it is not too much of a problem to deal with a thousand and eight hundred thieves, at least it is not much of a problem to defend the soil fence on Xishan Village and Yangma Island.

But once Kong Youde's rebellious army develops, the entire land of Denglai will be full of rebels, and it will not be impossible for tens of thousands of thieves to be in the tens of thousands.

So he hurriedly sent people to Shidao Bay to ask for help, and asked the brothers who were sitting in Shidao Bay to send some reinforcements over to strengthen the town guards on this side of Xishan Village.

After all, in the past few months, the sea wolf has been using ships to transport a large amount of grain to Xishan Village and Yangma Island in the Tuweizi, once there is a big chaos in this area, the rebels will definitely know the news here, in the troubled times, human life is the least valuable, but food is much more valuable than human life, it will definitely attract a large number of rebels, come here to attack Zhuangbao, trying to rob the grain stored here.

Therefore, Liu Wei has a strong sense of crisis, after all, this is too close to Muping County, if the rebels become a climate, they will definitely send troops to Ninghai Prefecture to attack Muping County, and then they will go to Xishan Village with their legs, if there is no strong force here, let alone collect refugees, it is estimated that they will not even be able to protect themselves.

The whole Shandong, with Kong Youde's mutiny, suddenly became lively as if it was boiling, and the rebels led by Kong Youde grew very fast like a snowball.

He staged a mutiny in Cangzhou and raised the flag of rebellion in October, but in less than two months, the rebel army led by Kong Youde, Li Jiucheng and others robbed a large amount of goods in Linyi, Lingxian, Shanghe, Qingcheng and other county towns, and also coerced many Liaodong people and the old Dongjiang troops to join in, so that their rebel strength grew from less than 1,000 at the beginning to more than 20,000 troops.

According to the information heard by Xizuo, who was hiding in the Dengzhou Mansion, it was said that the current governor of Denglai, Sun Yuanhua, had a very ambiguous attitude towards Kong Youde and others to mutiny.

At present, among the officials in Shandong and Denglai, some people are resolutely suppressed, but there are also people who want to be appeased, and Sun Yuanhua's attitude is obviously a little inclined to be appeased.

Because according to the detailed work from the mouth of the servants in Sun Yuanhua's house, Sun Yuanhua has some objections to the rebellion of Kong Youde and others, thinking that Kong Youde and others rebelled, basically being forced to helpless, it is rumored that Kong Youde was ordered to lead his troops out of the customs to help, and they have taken the waterway, because of the wind and waves at sea, the loss is not small, but Sun Yuanhua still asked him to lead his troops to go out of the customs by land.

These Liaodong soldiers themselves were already dissatisfied with Sun Yuanhua's decision, and they were all cavalry, and they did not carry grain, but before leaving Dengzhou, they received some silver from Sun Yuanhua as food, and they had to buy food supplies in the county towns where they passed along the way.

I am afraid that this matter is the cause of trouble, Liaodong soldiers have always been at odds with the Shandong people, learned that Kong Youde led the old Dongjiang Department through their county border, along the way almost all counties are very unkind to them, for their purchase of grain and grass supplies, do not cooperate much, some counties simply regard them as thieves, as soon as they heard that Kong Youde's department crossed the border, they simply closed the door and locked the city, closed the city gate, came to close the door and closed the market, and did not trade with Kong Youde's department at all.

Kong Youde's generals are not very obedient themselves, most of them came back from Dongjiang Town, and they can be said to be arrogant generals, where can they stand such a bird spirit, and they have complained a lot along the way.

To say that Kong Youde has tried his best to restrain him, there was no big mess along the way, so he took the soldiers to deal with it all the way and walked to Cangzhou.

However, when they passed through Wuqiao, the county order acquiesced to the county people closing the door and boycotting the market, and did not trade with Kong Youde's department at all, so when Kong Youde's department came here, the supply of military food was cut off, and the officers and soldiers could only crowd into a ruined temple outside the city to starve.

The weather was not beautiful, and it rained continuously, and the heavy rain continued for two or three consecutive days, so that Kong Youde's subordinates were all cold and hungry, and they were full of complaints.

During this period, there was also a soldier, it is said that he was still a small flag officer, and he didn't know where to grab a chicken, roast it and eat it, but no one expected that this time he stabbed a big basket.

No one thought that the chicken robbed by this soldier would poke out such a big basket, just because the chicken robbed by this soldier was actually a chicken of the servant of Wang Xiangchun of the Wang clan of Shandong Wang, and it was replaced by other ordinary people, but this servant ran to his master's son Wang Xiangchun to cry, Wang Xiangchun's son quit, thinking that these Qiu Ba actually dared to provoke his Wang family, so he came to the door and did not follow.

Kong Youde was quite tolerant, ordered the perpetrator to be caught, and sentenced him to a heavy punishment of piercing the arrow camp, but the soldier who was pierced by the arrow camp held a grudge, and ran to kill Wang Xiangchun's servant at night afterwards.
