Gong Jian lowered his head and sniffed the fragrance emanating from Zhao Chunxiang in his arms, and said, " Now I have more than 5,000 people, they are all ambitious people, just by attacking and conquering some small villages now, where can I satisfy their appetite, I need a large village that can continue to generate wealth, and after conquering it, rely on management and tax collection to obtain a steady stream of wealth, such as Shuikou Village, they have enough wealth to supply a team of 5,000 people, on this basis, I will attack a few more large villages and counties, I can have my own voice in the colony city, I will no longer be a bandit, I will become a powerful head of local military forces。 ”

Zhao Chunxiang listened to him quietly, she was born in a beautiful girl, although she was not interested in these fights and killings, but in all the books she has read, there will be some heroic legends, Gong Jian's idea is incredible in the eyes of ordinary people, but Zhao Chunxiang feels that it may not be impossible to do.

She thinks about it from the perspective of the future of her children, and also hopes that Gong Jian can get rid of the label of bandits, although the city is a city of sin, bandits are the most faceless group of people in this city of sin, although everyone is afraid of bandits, but at the same time they all look down on bandits.

In the eyes of everyone, bandits are a group of the most desperate people to do.

Zhao Chunxiang touched Gong Jian's beard with her slender tender hand and said, "Since that's the case, then knock it down." ”

Gong Jian was stunned for a moment, and immediately laughed, Zhao Chunxiang's words made him feel very happy.

Gong Jian said: "Wife, you are very supportive of me, but now, my brothers have different opinions, and many people oppose me doing this." ”

Zhao Chunxiang grinned and kissed him on the face and said, "Husband, why are they against such a thing that is good for the future?"

Gong Jian hugged her fiercely in his arms, sniffed in her hair for a while, and said: "Shuikou Village has an easy side to attack, its location is very independent, and there are no other villages and counties that can be rescued, so if we can capture it, it will reduce a lot of trouble to control." ”

Zhao Chunxiang nodded and said, "That's right." ”

Gong Jian said: "However, the problem is that Shuikou Village has had a village protection group for hundreds of years, and the current number is said to be thousands, even if there is water, there are still one or two thousand people, and they have two layers of defense, especially the inner city is very strong, if you want to capture it, you can't avoid relatively large losses." ”

Zhao Chunxiang frowned slightly.

Gong Jian said: "According to the latest information, they are still building an outer ring defense network, and they seem to have realized that we are going to attack them. ”

Zhao Chunxiang frowned and said, "It seems that it is difficult to fight, so do you still want to try?"

Gong Jian nodded and said: "No matter how many people are lost, if it is defeated, I will have a strong financial base, there are more than 20,000 people in Shuikou Village, and the people lost can be replenished and expanded, so the key is to fight down, I think, their defense may not be able to completely resist our attack, I now have more than 5,000 people, compared to Shuikou Village, which is composed of villagers, my people are more powerful, as long as they don't give up, they will be able to capture it sooner or later." ”

Zhao Chunxiang frowned and said, "If they live and work in peace and contentment, this war will cause many wives to be separated, right?"

Gong Jian glanced at her and said calmly: "I still can't talk to you women about these fights and killings, without the war, where can peace come from, if I don't target Shuikou Village now, I believe that other forces will soon target them, and the degree of war may be even worse." ”

Zhao Chunxiang nodded.

Gong Jian smiled slightly and said: "Taking advantage of the fact that the imperial army has no time to take care of the colony city, I will hurry up to expand the sphere of influence, if I can become the overlord of one side, then I can take off the hat of bandits, and you and the children don't always have to feel that you can't get by." ”

Zhao Chunxiang has lived with him for many years, and has already understood this man, even if he doesn't say it, she can accept everything he does outside, but although she can't see it, once she thinks of the women and children who were killed, she always feels some emotion and sympathy in her heart.

Shuikou Village, Wanzhiwen's home.

The crystal lights in the house were bright, and after Kai Hao, Chen Meng, and Lei Xuemei had dinner, they played with Liu Kewei and Wan Qinwen in the courtyard for a while, and Liu Dan finished the affairs of the five-person group to take Liu Kewei home.

Kai Hao, Chen Meng, and Lei Xuemei also followed Liu Dan to say goodbye to Ling Ruolan, and walked slowly along the street, sending Lei Xuemei home, followed by several armored vehicles.

A square lamp tube with a height of about one meter is erected on both sides of the street outside the house every ten meters, and the light emitted by the burning of the wax lamp inside allows the villagers to clearly see the street situation, but the street is completely dark.

In order to save resources, and there were few people on the streets at night, less than half of the wax lamps were used on the streets, but now because of the defense plan, most of the villagers have to be busy until the evening to go home, and some villagers even have to work until late at night to finish, and the flow of people on the streets is much larger than before, so all the wax lamps are lit to illuminate the streets in the village.

Under the light of the wax lamp, Liu Dan and Lei Xuemei's faces had a different beauty from the daytime.

Liu Dan smiled and said, "How was Xiao Xuan's mood after he arrived at Wenlu?"

Kai Hao looked at Chen Meng and said, "Da Meng, what do you think?"

Chen Meng's huge body blocked a piece of light, and he said with a smile: "Xiao Xuan was still in a good mood when we left, I don't know what will happen if I miss my mother tomorrow." ”

Liu Dan smiled and said to Liu Kewei: "Or, Kewei, you will also go to Wenlu tomorrow and accompany Brother Xiaoxuan?"

Liu Kewei hurriedly put his arm around her and said, "Mom, I'm not going." ”

Liu Dan shrugged at Kai Hao and Lei Xue and said, "You see, Kewei is not independent of Xiao Xuan yet. ”

Lei Xuemei grinned and said, "Aunt Dan, you should let Kewei and Chen Meng be together more, so that he will soon look like a man." It's not okay now, a man can't always follow his mother. ”

Lyukevy pouted with a pitiful look and did not speak.

Liu Dan touched his head with a smile and sighed slightly, "As soon as I saw him like this, my heart softened." ”

Kai Hao smiled and said, "Kewei, when we are busy for a while, you will follow me and Brother Da Meng every day, how about it." ”

Liu Kewei looked at Chen Meng and nodded at Kai Hao.

Liu Dan said with a smile: "If you agree, you can't go back, Sister Xiaomei is a witness." ”

Liu Kewei nodded and said, "Don't regret it, I also want to learn kung fu from Brother Da Meng." ”

Chen Meng smiled and said, "No problem." ”

Liu Dan said with a smile: "That's not easy, Xiao Meng's kung fu is not easy to learn." ”

A few people walked on the street, from time to time there were villagers to greet them, and soon walked to the gate of Lei Jiang's courtyard, Lei Xuemei went home first, Kai Hao and Chen Meng followed Liu Dan to her house.
