Linxian is located on the west bank of the Hushui River, and the small group of Mongolian herdsmen huddled on the east bank, and Ma Feng had to cross the Hushui River if he wanted to attack them.

However, it is still winter at the moment, and the river is still frozen, and it is not wide, only a few tens of meters, so it is easy to pass it if you are careful.

As a person from the Ma family in Shanxi, although Ma Feng is only the county training general, but there are thirty horses, in order to prevent accidents, he left all the infantry troops in the city this time, in addition, after he went out of the city, he did not let the city gate close, but sent a small group of regiments to train soldiers to guard the drawbridge, so that he would not wait too long under the city when he returned soon.

As a descendant of the Ma family, Ma Feng still has the minimum military quality, although the nearby thieves and Tartar slaves are rampant, but most of them are raging in the mountains east of the Hushui River, and few cross the Hushui River to the west bank.

And Ma Feng only arranged for someone to explore the west bank of the Hushui River within a radius of ten miles before coming out, and did not find anything unusual, so he asked people to guard the drawbridge under the city gate without any problem.

As for the east bank, the master's people have explored that each of the Tarnus occupies the valley where a stream that eventually joins the Huanshui River to the west, and the Tartars in the three valleys closest to Linxian have recently had a plague, not to mention going down the mountain, and have been blocked by their own people.

"So, these people escaped before the lockdown? It would be bad if they had a plague too!"

"But they only look crooked because they have nothing to eat, and if it's a plague, they can't walk at all!"

"Well, even if there is an epidemic, I'll act quickly, cut off their heads, and then use lime nitrate, and everything will be fine."

On the opposite side of the county is a hill, the hill is densely wooded, it is where the people in the county town gather firewood on weekdays, and the south side of the hill is a valley, those Mongolian Tartars are nesting there, after seeing Ma Feng and his party, they know that the big thing is not good, so they hurriedly run to the stream.

Ma Feng's face was full of hideousness, and he smiled: "Where else can I run?" ”

However, as soon as his thirty horsemen stepped into the ravine, there was a commotion in the woods on one side, and then some Mongol cavalry sprang out of there!

Ma Feng was shocked, "It's really a trap!" ”

Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately turned the horse's head and ran back.

Just when he was panicking, Long Thirteen was crossing the Hushui River with a hundred cavalry, and then suddenly arrived at the gate of the city!

The Ma family, in the entire northwest of Jin, is a family that can shake three times by stomping his feet, even the county master does not dare to brush his tiger whiskers at will, and the defenders of the city are all regimental training soldiers under Ma Feng, without his orders, who dares to close the city gate easily?

So, the dragon thirteen hundred cavalry swept away the regimental training soldiers guarding the city gate with a surprise attack, and then rushed in on horseback!

At this time, the soldiers defending the city didn't care that Ma Feng was still outside, and hurriedly began to close the city gate, but under the cover of the cavalry's bows and arrows, Long Thirteen personally rushed to the city wall with a shield in one hand and a long knife in both hands in the other!

After going up to the city wall, he threw away his shield, held the long knife and spun it violently, instantly blocking a large number of various weapons, at this time, He Jinlong also came up, he also held a long knife in his hand, and the two of them immediately firmly occupied the entrance to the city wall near the city gate!

When two people with a force value of more than 80 unfolded the long knives in their hands, they were not something that these regimental soldiers could resist, so the gap at the entrance of the Yongdao Road became bigger and bigger!

With more people coming up, they finally completely occupied the area centered on the city gate tower, at this time, Long Thirteen kicked open the gate of the city gate tower, first threw out two javelins, and then rushed in with a long knife!

After a fight, Dragon Thirteen took control of the city gatehouse!

At this time, most of the city gates have jack gates, which are controlled by winches in the city gate tower, and when Long Thirteen controls the city gate tower, it means that he completely controls this city gate!

At this time, about thirty cavalrymen entered the county seat and immediately surrounded the county government!

Not long after, when Bai Wenxuan came in with two hundred pikemen, the overall situation was decided.

Outside, Batu's youngest son Omubu surrounded Ma Feng with a hundred horsemen, and after a fierce battle, he finally eliminated his family and captured Ma Feng!

In fact, if it weren't for Long Thirteen always telling him that he must be caught alive, Omubu's people would definitely not have suffered such a big loss.

In the county seat, the county magistrate stood in front of a white silk and lingered for a long time, but he never made up his mind.

"Bang ......"

The door was kicked open.

The county magistrate scolded: "This official said that you are not allowed to come in and disturb ......"

As soon as he turned around, he saw a man.

A man dressed in the uniform of the Ming army, very young, with a slightly dark complexion and a ruddy complexion, was looking at him with a smile.

This is naturally Dragon Thirteen.

Behind him, two cavalrymen escorted Ma Feng, who was tied up.

"You wait for the rebels and thieves ......."

As he spoke, the county commander wanted to continue to stick his head into the link made of white silk, "Huh", after a bright light flashed, white silk fell from the beam.

The county magistrate sat on the ground with fear, loss, and some happiness.

Long Thirteen sat on a Taishi chair with a big grin.

"I have a sentence, you both listen carefully, if you do what I say, not only will it be fine, but you may also be promoted to a knighthood."

"I want the official to commit to the thief, wishful thinking!"

The county order without Bai Aya suddenly became angry and scolded.

Long Thirteen smiled, "Yes, you are from a noble background, fifty-five years old this year, and you borrowed five thousand taels of silver from Wang Dayu, a merchant of the Great Jin Dynasty in Lingshi County, and waited for three years in the capital to obtain this real shortage."

(Wang Dayu, Lingshi County Jujia, one of the eight imperial merchants in the early Qing Dynasty)

"This year is your first year in office, but in this year, you have a new two-room concubine in Linxian County, and you have an extra 3,000 taels of silver in the private treasury, and the concubine has also added you a long-awaited man, yes, I am a thief, you can not do what I say"

"However, it is said that the silver you borrowed from Wang Dayu has reached 10,000 taels with interest, and you have only saved 3,000 taels, which is still far away."

"If you die, Wang Dayu will not let you go, you are one of the eight giants in Shanxi, Shanxi, Gyeonggi and even the capital have nobles to help, what are you a county order?"

"As a result, your mansion and property in Daizhou's hometown will be occupied by Wang Dayu, and your eighty-year-old mother will also die with hatred, and you will have a reputation for unfilial piety."

"And here, if you don't listen to me, your two concubines will become someone else's woman, and your pair of children will become food for thieves, by the way, the newspaper said that the northern drought in Shaanxi Province has long been cannibalistic, and it is not a big deal to eat other people's children"

"By the way, there's ...... Bring it on! ”

I saw He Jinlong escorting a person.

"This person is your master, ordinary official correspondence is actually written by him, well, sometimes he writes to the court, and he also imitates your handwriting"

Long 13 took out a piece of paper from his arms and read: "I, the ××× of Linxian County, seeing that there is no way to do it today, leading to chaos in the world, I am determined to join the ranks of the rebels, and from now on, I will take the overthrow of the Zhu dynasty as my own responsibility, and I will not hesitate to go to the soup for the sake of the rebels."

He raised it, and there was both the signature of the county ordinance and his large seal.

Long 13 took out another one and said to Ma Feng: "By the way, this is yours, the content is exactly the same, cough cough, your family is much richer than the county order, and thirty percent of the real estate and shops in this county town are your Ma family."

"You have a wife and nine concubines, both father and mother, five or six children, oops, they are all full of flowers......"

As soon as these words came out, Ma Feng knelt down and came to Long Thirteen, "King, what do you want, as long as you can save my life and my family, you can do anything."

Long Thirteen squinted at the county order and asked, "What about you?" ”

Seeing that he hadn't made a sound, he raised the paper in his hand, "Once this matter is publicized, not only will the official position be gone, but Ling Chi's execution will be light, and there will be the destruction of the Nine Clans."

After a while, the county magistrate sighed, "What do you want me to do, say it"

......

Three days later, Long 13 and the others left Linxian.

This time, he scavenged about 20,000 taels of silver and almost the same amount of grain and grass from the wealthy families in Linxian County, and he distributed half of the grain and grass to the poor people in the county and half to the Mongolian herdsmen outside the city.

The county order has already met with Batu, and sent a letter to the Shanxi political envoy and household department, as for how the court handles it, then he can't control it, but Batu has hope after all, isn't it?

Batu is a big Taiji, with Long Thirteen as a support, taking advantage of a party, he killed a few disobedient Xiao Taiji, and handed over a dozen heads to Long Thirteen, and Long Thirteen handed them over to Ma Feng.

With these heads, Ma Feng may become the president of Linxian or a garrison.

In return, with Batu's permission and the consent of some herdsmen, Long 13 took away 300 unmarried Mongolian teenagers over the age of 15 and under 20, including Batu's youngest son, Omubu.

"Remember, don't take revenge on the poor people of the city, once I know about it, the contents of these two pieces of paper will be known to the whole world!"

Before leaving, Long Thirteen said viciously to the county order and Ma Feng.

Reaching out to the Mongolian herdsmen and absorbing them ended in such an unbelievable way, and Long Thirteen thought that he had done everything he could, and if there was any more moths, he would not be able to control them.

He knew that at this moment when people's lives were like mustard, it was good to be alive, and if there was still a bowl of rice to eat in the city, it would be good to burn high incense, and if the food was good, it would be a blessing from the previous generations.

Ten days later, they successfully returned to Jiaokou Fort.

In fact, the Beichuan River, where Jiaokou Fort is located, is a river that is completely parallel to the Hushui River, and there is a Mopan Mountain in the middle, and it can be reached by crossing this mountain, but because there is only one road that can cross Mopan Mountain, it took them ten days to get there.

"Congratulations, you have completed the task of contacting and absorbing Mongolian herdsmen, and you will be rewarded with 5 points each for commander, agility and luck, all of which have reached 75, and after that, your strength, commander, agility, luck, and wisdom are 85, 85, 75, 75, and 80 respectively."

"That's it?" , Long Thirteen couldn't help but pout.

This time, the new task was also not arranged for the first time, but Li Zhanchun, who stayed in Jiaokou Fort, reported the latest news to him.

"Three masters, your prediction is right, although there are only a few hundred guards in Yongning Prefecture City, there are still tens of thousands of Dingkou in the city, and Zhou Yuji's gang will catch up with about 3,000 men over the age of fifteen and under the age of sixty to the city wall."

"Cao Cao, the big boss, the sweeping king and others attacked for a month, all the ravines, bait was almost exhausted, but still failed to capture the city, and when you went to Linxian, maybe to cross the river before the Yellow River thawed, Wubao County's Shenmu Shen general Ai Wannian crossed the Yellow River with 1,500 steps, Cao Cao and others immediately withdrew after hearing it......"

"When?"

"Just a few days ago"

Long Thirteen nodded, and secretly thought: "It's March now, and the Yellow River will completely thaw in another month, and I, after accepting three hundred Mongolian cavalry, have four hundred cavalry, six hundred infantry troops, and hundreds of miners, and the real strength is at least at the middle and upper reaches of the level among the rebels."

"You have to seize this last month, practice and run in"
