Zhan Qili's caravan is actually not a lot at all, but they have no weapons and armor, no training, and no militarization, so they can be regarded as stragglers at best.

Zhou Zhe's idea is that the current horse gang might as well be converted into a militia team, as long as Ma Dabao, a guy from a ringing horse, goes to give them weapons, simple training, and uses their advantage of being familiar with the terrain of Shandong Province to block supplies. Moreover, he thought even further that in the future, the caravan would help him build two lines of communication on land.

Both lines of communication are commercial routes, but they are also the lines of communication for the disciples of the real card master Ling Xiao Pavilion. A Shandong road, a river east. If Henan Dao is completely pacified in the future and the horse gang is captured, it is equivalent to grasping the lifeblood of Lingxiao Pavilion.

When Zhan Qili saw Liu Maosheng, she made no secret of the excitement in her heart. Since Zhou Zhe replaced Yang Jue into Shandong Dao, during the period of time when Xiaogushan was lost, the horse gang can be described as stormy.

Whether it is the Shandong Dao Sect Alliance or the Hexi Sect Alliance, they all want to win her over. But she has been favored by Zhou Zhe and beaten, and she understands the fate of the grass on the wall, so she has never wavered. She was determined, but not everyone in her caravan.

Unable to win over, they changed their way to win over Zhan Qili's cronies. tried to use this method to finally force Zhan Qili to change her mind, speak softly, knock on the side, and all the members of the Ma Gang did not tell the level, and after a few questions, they could be asked by Zhan Qili full of loopholes, and finally expelled from the decision-making circle of the Ma Gang.

"Master Hou asked us to go to Xiaogu Mountain?" Zhan Qili was startled at first, thinking in her heart that the situation had reached the point where the horse gang was needed to participate in the war?

When she thought about the recent movements of several companies in Shandong Province, she was shocked.

Liu Maosheng didn't say what he was doing in Xiaogushan, but said seriously: "Master Hou's order, I don't quite understand why. He just said, let you take all the members of the horse gang and their families to the forbidden army camp outside Xiaogu Mountain and wait for the dispatch. ”

Zhan Qili frowned, thinking quietly, he really couldn't understand Zhou Zhe's intention to do this, but she was still inevitably afraid, afraid that Zhou Zhe would really send her horse gang into the battlefield as a consumable.

"Can't go! It is rumored that Zhou Zhe is ruthless. ”

"Can't go! When it's in his hands, is the caravan still in our caravan?"

Among the cronies, no matter who they were, almost everyone did not approve of Zhan Qili taking the members of the horse gang to join the forbidden army.

So many people disagreed, and Zhan Qili's mind sank, as long as she could find a way out, why couldn't she swing again? This is not about her personal favor gain or loss, but about the fate of the entire horse gang, so she asked: "Since everyone does not agree to meet Zhou Zhe, then where do we go?"

"Waiting for Shandong Dao to settle down, Ling Xiao Pavilion and the Sword Sect will definitely think of us, and when the time comes, it will not be to continue to make a living as a horse gang. ”

"Yes! Anyway, we are ordinary people, that is, errand runners, who do business with is not business?"

People are like this, especially when they have been in the ordinary class of the common people for a long time, and they are secretive and respectful of all the struggles above their level. They are all people who drag their families and mouths, and their biggest goal is to have a hot meal, a hot meal, and a hot kang head, and everything that is risky will make them afraid.

In fact, the deep-seated thought in their hearts is that even if they get less money and work a little tiring, as long as they can be safe and stable, they can get by.

Seeing Zhan Qili who was hesitant after the discussion was over, Liu Maosheng knew that the result of their meeting might not be satisfactory.

But he looked at the serious appearance of the gang members who took care of the horses, and couldn't help but think of Ma Dabao, whose legs and feet were not sharp now. is also a person who loves horses, Ma Dabao was willing to hurt his leg for him to survive, if it was not the arrow on his body that was stable at that time, maybe Ma Dabao would not be lame, and it may be him who died, Liu Maosheng.

On the one hand, it is the task assigned by Zhou Zhe, and on the other hand, it is brotherly love, and he is also bitter in his heart, although he doesn't know Zhou Zhe's detailed plan, but he understands the style of the Hou Ye too well. Hou Ye is a ruthless man, and he is also the most compassionate person in the world, he will never allow the grass on both sides of the wall to fall, if the horse gang does not listen to the dispatch, it will definitely be uprooted in the future.

But if you obey the dispatch, you can definitely soar, for the people who are bitter, Zhou Zhe will not treat them harshly, and their families may not be implicated, but these fellow Ma Dabao fellow villagers and members of the Ma Gang who are from Kuhaha Haha He Liu Maosheng really can't bear to watch them go to the abyss.

"Zhan Qili. Liu Maosheng made up his mind and said: "I'll tell you the truth, I don't know what Master Hou wants. But I know one thing, what we came out of Longquan Pass was all living like a person with their lives. In front of the head of the Hexi sect, I also said what Hou Ye said, a century-old foundation is earned by yourself, not given by others. With that said, I have returned to my life, and if you come, I will be there in ten days. ”

After Liu Maosheng finished speaking, he bowed down and said goodbye.

On the way to farewell, until Liu Maosheng's figure disappeared, Zhan Qili was muttering to herself, "The hundred-year foundation is earned by yourself, not given by others." ”

She couldn't help but think that almost everyone in Longquan Pass had said that they would take their lives to live their lives.

Are his caravan members alive? No!

They get up early and are greedy for darkness, but they can only eat bran vegetables. They were reluctant to eat an extra bite of food for themselves, leaving their money for the horses to replenish their fodder or to save up for their children and grandchildren. Their horse gang was exploited and squeezed by various sects, exploited and squeezed by the government, and was exploited and squeezed by the king of the mountain.

Whoever they saw nodded their heads and bowed, and they were about to kneel.

Speaking of which, the Shandong Horse Gang is a well-known Horse Gang, and she Zhan Qili is the leader of the inherited Ma Gang.

Why is it that we have worked hard for generations, but the people who live are not like people, and ghosts are not like ghosts?

A burst of red light appeared, Zhan Qili's soul exploded, and the sentence of taking his life to live like a person seemed to be a mockery, mocking the horse gang's reluctance to steal a living.

"Everyone, men and women, young and old, but all members of our caravan, even if they are over seventy years old, even if they are waiting to be fed, even if they are widows, must assemble in one day and set off for Little Lonely Mountain tomorrow. Zhan Qili, who was clad in red light, returned to the hall of the caravan and said such an order.

After looking around at everyone, she added in everyone's puzzled eyes: "If there are people who follow me to Xiaogushan not far away, from now on, they will be removed from the horse gang, and according to the rules of expelling the horse gang, people will go out, and horses will stay." ”

"Three, four! ”

Some people are anxious, some people are worried. And Zhan Qili didn't care about the attitude of those people at all, and the order spread from the temporary hall of the caravan, and began to spread in the gathering place of the caravan members in the slums of Linhai City.

One day is enough, but late will change. The families of the members of the caravan have long gathered here, and now they are doing the right thing.

Seeing that the busy members of the horse gang seemed to want to pack everything and take everything with them, Zhan Qili said coldly: "Bring swords, necessities, and other things, and throw them all away." ”

If you want to live like a person, then take your life to live. The people of Longquanguan have already lived a personal life, and our horse gang should also walk in the world with dignity.

In the forbidden army camp, Jiao Dajun and Zhou Zhe sat on a small hillside and played against each other. It's just that neither of them knows how to play Go, so they can only use Zhou Zhe's Protestant backgammon to vassal elegance.

Jiao Dajun, who had lost three games in a row, threw away his chess pieces and said helplessly: "No, I can't play." ”

"Come on, come on, come on! Uncle Shi, you're all down on this plate. Zhou Zhe said.

Jiao Dajun said depressedly: "Playing chess with you is torture, the two of them will start to besiege, and before you know it, you will win." No more, no more. My hair is almost gray, and you still have the leisure to play chess. ”

Zhou Zhe was helpless: "What are you worried about? Isn't the current situation very good?"

Jiao Dajun Huo straightened up and said, "The situation is still very good? How many people are there in the mountains now? More than 15,000. If you finish the battle and fight us to the death, you can break through our defenses at any time. That's what they'll do, and we'll be too late to regret it. ”

Zhou Zhe waved his hand and smiled: "What did I say! Just them? A person who is thinking about the sesame seeds of the dragon armor can not think of watermelons. If it really calls, then okay, let's just withdraw it and let them go. ”

As soon as the words fell, Jiao Dajun became a little furious: "What are you kidding, you won't fight, just withdraw? ”

"Uncle Shi. Zhou Zhe comforted: "Laughing is also laughing at you, but it must be us who laughs last." ”

Jiao Dajun scolded: "How did Lao Chen accept such a shameless apprentice as you." I'll carry the black cauldron, and you can take the credit. ”

Zhou Zhe scratched his head: "You are the boss, and you must have the lion's share." Even if they take the mountain pass, they are still in the mountains, and the dragon armor is a piece of meat that cannot be eaten, and everyone wants to eat it and want to enter this game. We have to really get out of the way, it's definitely not Yipintang who is laughing, but the group of calves from the Sword Sect, they are too close. ”

As soon as Jiao Dajun thought about it, he understood what Zhou Zhe said, if the wolf is gone, the tiger will come, and he asked, "And then?"

Zhou Zhe put a few white seeds in the middle at this time, and arranged a few black seeds outside and said: "When they enter Xiaogu Mountain, they have to be inside, unless they directly take the dragon armor silently." And our people. Zhou Zhe pointed to the black chess pieces and continued: "As soon as we retreat, Tongbei City will increase its weight and make a sword move." As long as it doesn't drag on until late autumn, they have no chance of winning. We just need to take people, control a few key roads, and block the grain routes. The more people there are, the faster they die. ”

"Tsk!tsk!tsk!" Jiao Dajun blinked, half-frowning and said, "Your chessboard is not big enough, if it is bigger, you are afraid that you will break the sky." ”

Zhou Zhe smiled awkwardly: "Uncle Shi, isn't this the worst plan? Isn't that right?"

Jiao Dajun pushed the chessboard: "Shameless." Then he smiled happily: "Like me." Hahahaha! ”

The coach's heart stabilized, he was happy to eat wine and barbecue every day, and the hearts of the officers brought by Jiao Dajun were also stable. Morale is also slowly picking up during the rainy season.

Five days later, the Qingshui Pavilion of the Yuan Fang brothers and Si Shengnan arrived, and they arranged the spirit array in the mountain passes to the west and south, which was even more stable. And the return of thousands of internal guards is even more mobile.

Seven days later, Zhan Qili and the men, women, and children of the horse gang finally arrived at the camp outside the forbidden army in advance.

With the entry of these two groups of people, the disadvantage of numbers began to be slowly pulled back.

Good news came, and there was bad news, that is, the seven sects in Hexi did not move for a long time, but stiffly occupied one acre and three points of vacant land left by the fake bandits in several state capitals in Shandong Province.

This more or less disappointed Zhou Zhe, after all, if there is less help, there will be more trouble in the future.

On the fifteenth day, Hua Zan and Ma Yao's men also arrived, along with the standard ordnance ordered from the Kansai Sea.

At this point, the layout is over, and next, there is a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
