Chapter 69: Chen Guangfu's depression

Li San pondered for a while, smiled evilly and said: "Of course, the higher the better, the little one thinks that whoever bids high will give the best!" But a human head costs at least twenty taels of silver......"

After nightfall, two scouts were sent from Xishan Village to inform Li San of today's battle situation in Xishan Village, and Li San immediately laughed from ear to ear after hearing this.

Nearly 300 rebel heads, twenty taels of one, can be exchanged for at least 6,000 taels of silver, these 6,000 taels of silver, is not a small amount, even if it is used to buy delicate girls in the hands of human traffickers, at least hundreds can be bought, if it is exchanged for grain, even if the price of grain in Shandong is extremely high now, one stone of grain is enough for three or four taels of silver, and these six thousand taels of silver can be exchanged for at least more than 1,000 stones of grain, enough to feed many people, not a short time.

Lu Zhixian had also sent people at this time to privately spread the news that Li San was willing to betray the rebel heads, and some military generals and officials guarding other city gates in Muping County were all immediately interested when they heard it.

So after nightfall, they sent people to the north gate to discuss with Li San about buying the rebel head.

These people are not short of money, what they are most afraid of lacking is military merit, and now that they can buy heads, even if some people are unwilling to spend money, they are afraid that if others spend money to buy it, they will lose their face at that time.

So these people all came to Li San to negotiate the purchase of heads, more than 300 heads, except for 50 left for Lu Zhixian, the rest were ordered out overnight.

For the time being, because the rebels have not retreated, it is not convenient for the people on the side of Xishan Village to risk transportation to the city for the time being, so these people paid a deposit first, booked the heads, and after the rebels retreated, they immediately went to Liu Wei to pick up the goods.

Liu Wei and Wu Shengtian, for this matter, they were also very happy, it turned out that they could still sell it at such a good price when they fought and killed people and cut off people's heads, which was an unexpected surprise and made a windfall.

After having this money, they no longer need to let everything be allocated to this side, they can solve part of it on the spot with the purchase and sale of heads, and it is estimated that this news will be transmitted back, and it will definitely make Shangfeng very satisfied, and a few of them will be praised for their work, and the days of promotion among the sea wolves in the future are estimated not to be too far away.

So they hurriedly sent people, ran to the ice, cut off some of the human heads that were not cut off, carefully transported back, piled up, now the weather is frozen, a person's head is frozen like a stone, there is no worry that they will rot and deteriorate, these human heads that look grinning to the extreme, it turns out that people look very uncomfortable, but now look at it, but it makes people feel much more pleasing to the eye, this is all white silver!

Besides, the rebel general surnamed Wan fled back to the rebel camp and told Chen Guangfu about the defeat in Xishan Village during the day and the almost annihilation of the entire army.

He never thought that a small Xishan village actually had such combat power, although the guy surnamed Wan he sent was average, but he used to be in Dongjiang Town, following him from birth to death, experienced in a hundred battles, although most of the rebels brought by his subordinates were later incorporated into the rebel army, and they were not considered the core elite, but after all, many of them used to be the old department of the Dongjiang Army, and they had all seen battles, and they were by no means as easy to deal with as ordinary Shandong soldiers.

But such 500 soldiers and horses, in the past Xishan Village, after the first battle, were actually wiped out by the regimental training of Xishan Village, this kind of thing really made Chen Guangfu unable to figure it out.

In particular, after listening to the report from the surnamed Wan, saying that the villager of Xishan Village held an extremely sharp and incomparable bird gun in his hand, which could kill a person wearing armor a hundred steps away, Chen Guangfu did not believe it at all, how could he not understand the performance of the bird gun, even if it was a Lu Mi gun, it was absolutely impossible to kill a man in armor a hundred steps away.

But the surnamed Wan trembled, told the situation of the war at that time, and insisted that it was true, including several personal soldiers who escorted him back, and they were also convinced, which was absolutely true.

But their words still attracted the merciless ridicule of other colleagues, in the eyes of those rebel generals, this surname Wan is full of tongues, what he said is, if the bird can be a hundred steps away, if the armor is killed, then the future battle will not be fought, who can stand this kind of bird gun!

So in their eyes, the surnamed Wan must have done something stupid, only to be beaten by the regimental training of Xishan Village to defeat the catastrophic Yong, this guy came back to say this, he must have wanted to shirk responsibility, they did faintly hear Xishan Village during the day, there was a string of guns, but they didn't believe it at all, what the surname Wan said was true.

Chen Guangfu as the chief general who came over this time, although he didn't believe what his subordinates surnamed Wan said, but he was still a little suspicious, first of all, he felt that the group training in Xishan Village was probably not simple, the general big families or the group training in the big villages and villages, the equipment was very poor, although it was possible to get a little firecracker, even a small cannon, but it was difficult to get a lot of birds.

After all, bird guns are equipment for the army, the price is high, and the number of them scattered on the market is not much, but this Xishan Village has been proven today that they have a large number of bird guns in their hands, at least more than two or three hundred.

What is the origin of the big family surnamed Liu in Xishan Village, and how can he get so many birds? Could it be that this guy can't be a super poster, what kind of super queen and platform can't be behind it? So he immediately sent people to the captured locals to inquire about Liu's different origins.

After a short time, someone came back to report, saying that although this Liu is a person from Shandong, but he was not in Ninghai Prefecture before, but only came back last year, according to his own words, he went to Fujian and Guangdong a few years ago to do business, made a fortune, and now wants to return to his hometown to buy some industries, last year he came back and bought a large amount of land in Xishan Village, and spent money to build the village wall of Xishan Village, and also bought a lot of land on Yangma Island, and also set up a soil fence on Yangma Island.

It is said that he had hundreds of family members and village warriors on hand, and these family members and village warriors were very strong, and soon after they first arrived, they suppressed many local local snakes, and also killed a lot of local ruffians who tried to make trouble for him, so that now when it comes to Xishan Village, the locals dare not provoke this surnamed Liu.

And this surnamed Liu behaves strangely, since last year, he has been opening a porridge shed in Xishan Village to give porridge, but he has made a lot of good fortunes, but in private, he buys a large number of children and women, especially women, buy them back from traffickers in batches, and then ship them to the south.

It shows that this guy may be a human trafficker with a big business, but what exactly he does, no one can say clearly, only that this guy is very rich, very rich, and has a lot of food on hand, and has taken in a large number of refugees during this time, and can still feed them.

After Chen Guangfu heard this, combined with the group of subordinates sent today to tentatively attack the North Gate Pass and failed, his head suddenly felt a little big, and he thought that Lao Tzu was so unlucky, but he came up to fight Muping County and ran into such a piece of hob meat.

Although this Xishan Village is an absolute big fat sheep, but at the moment, this fat sheep is not delicious if it is not good, and it is still a tiger in Xishan Village.

Today he sent 500 people to Xishan Village, the result was almost annihilated, and the other people sent to attack the North Gate Pass were also killed and wounded, he didn't know who was guarding the North Gate Pass, but according to the defeated subordinates, the officers and soldiers guarding the North Gate also had a lot of sharp and abnormal bird guns in their hands, and they fought far and accurately, and they were ruthless, is there any connection between this North Pass and Xishan Village? Chen Guangfu couldn't guess either.

At the moment, his situation is very embarrassing, although he brought 2,000 men and horses, but only two or three days of work, he suffered heavy losses, and now with his little strength, it is not easy to capture Muping County.

After he came over from Muping County this time, he felt that the defenders here seemed to have a strong will to resist, especially after today's battle at the North Gate, the resistance of the other gates was also strengthening.

He only had more than 1,000 horses left, and it was impossible to capture Muping County again, so after Chen Guangfu thought about it, he didn't dare to take troops to Xishan Village to retaliate without authorization, but sent a fast horse and ordered him to rush back to Dengzhou immediately and ask for help from Li Jiucheng, who was sitting in Dengzhou.

He ordered the people who ran back to report the news to Li Jiucheng about the situation in Xishan Village here, and asked Li Jiucheng to send him as many reinforcements as possible this time, and bring two heavy artillery, only in this way could he take revenge for this arrow.

After sending away the messenger, Chen Guangfu ordered to continue to blockade and surround Muping County, and avoid Beiguan, and specifically attack several other city gates, even if it was a feint, at least to maintain pressure on the defenders in Muping County, so that they were always in a tense state.

In the next ten days or so, the fighting at the other city gates was fierce, but only the north gate was calm, and the rebels never dared to attack the north gate, which made Li San quite depressed.

However, the defenders on the other side of the city gate complained about this, and every day they screamed and anxious, as if they could be conquered by the rebels at any time.

Zhao Zhizhou and other officials are nervous to death these days, for fear that the city gate will not be able to withstand the attack of the rebels, so they remembered the regimental training of Xishan Village guarding the north gate.

Zhao Zhizhou wanted to treat these soldiers in Xishan Village as his direct reserves, as firefighters, and send them to the top wherever the battle situation was tight.
