Chapter 23: Autumn Storms

Even if he doesn't exist, this war has to be fought, he just wants to advance this war, although he is also for personal gain, but killing Lai Wanchun and providing information to the imperial court can not end this war faster?

However, Su Kezhi's words reminded Chen Feng that war is terrible, and if he attracts Wan Chun into the country, he may not be completely sure that he can snipe him to death or or, and no one in the south knows whether he can withstand it.

If the army of the king of Dingchuan really came to Qingxi County, what should he do? Should the city be opened within the work?

The soldiers and horses of the inspection department need to be trained.

By the way, Chen Feng also made up a reason to tell Lai Wanchun.

It is said that the imperial court has made up its mind to cut the feudal domain, and it is ready for the king of Dingchuan to resist, so the imperial court has come to the secret order, so that he can train the soldiers and horses of the inspection department in case of accidents.

However, he also reassured Lai Wanchun, in short, these people are his own people.

When the teacher and you lead the troops to Qingxi City, you will open the city gate, and then lead the people to attack Wutong with the teacher, just to give yourself a glory and wealth after success.

Sometimes, it is extremely useful to show strong desires.

A few months after that.

The repair of the post road was in full swing, Zhou Fu selected the ambush site and arranged it, and Chen Feng occasionally supervised the post road, but he spent more time between the imperial court and Lai Wanchun.

He even hoped that after the post road was completed, the Son of Heaven would issue an edict to cut down the feudal domain, and then the king of Dingchuan would rebel.

The autumn wind is gradually rising, and the leaves are gradually turning yellow.

In mid-August, it was the end of the post road project.

Under the overtime and money, Chen Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief after budgeting the completion date, Lu Jin'an, the old thing, was destined to not be able to find his own trouble.

A bleak wind blew from the side of the official road.

Chen Fengzheng, Xu Weiyang, Zhou Fu and others walked in the middle of the inspection, otherwise if something went wrong after the completion, Huang Anfu would tell Lu Jin'an, and Lu Jin'an would have the opportunity to find trouble for himself.

Sometimes, however, it can be just worrying about what's coming.

A figure hurried from the front.

I only recognized Yang Feng who was in charge of the post road in front of me when I got close, and I could guess that something must have happened when I saw his panting and panicked appearance.

Chen Fengxin said no, it's almost over, and you can give yourself some moths?

Don't delay the completion of the project.

Without waiting for Chen Feng to ask, Yang Feng pointed behind him and said, "My lord, I have provoked a group of wild people, and they are now going to drag our people back to the mountains." ”

"Savages? What savages? Chen Feng didn't understand at all.

Xu Weiyang and Zhou Fu were also very confused.

Suddenly, Yang Fengcai reacted and immediately explained: "My lord, on Bei'an Mountain, twenty miles away from here, there is a Cangli Village, and there are more than 1,000 people living in the village, who have lived in the mountains for generations, hunting for a living, and are not subject to the jurisdiction of the imperial court, so we locals call them savages." ”

"A stockade of more than a thousand people?"

Chen Feng was surprised, "I've been here for so long, I didn't know that there was such a village?" ”

"It's not surprising that these savages rarely go down the mountain,"

Yang Feng said: "What's more, even if they go down the mountain, you may not be able to see them, but we locals don't like to deal with these wild people, because it's easy to get into trouble, and if you get into trouble, it's even more troublesome, and now there is such trouble." ”

Zhou Fu: "......"

"What's the trouble you said," Xu Weiyang urged.

"That's right,"

Yang Feng took a deep breath and said: "Their old village is dead, and they don't know what the custom of these wild people is, they need to carry their dead village owner to patrol the mountain, and some symbols will be left during the mountain patrol, and no one can move for seven days,"

"Not all of our road builders understand that when we were carrying stones, we destroyed a few stones with their symbols painted on them, and now the wild men want to take people back to the mountains, and I heard my old man say that if they are caught back, they will be burned to death."

"Carrying the dead to patrol the mountains? What the hell is this custom, I've never heard of it, it's deceitful, right? Xu Weiyang was very skeptical.

Zhou Fu also said that he hadn't heard of it.

"I don't know very well,"

Yang Fengdao: "I just heard the old man talk about it, it is said that there are Qiang people, Gurong people, and barbarians in this village, because of the war gathered together, it is said that this village has existed in the earliest Han Dynasty, and there are some legends,"

"Their village owner is actually equivalent to their patriarch, and because of those legends, they believe that after the death of the village owner, he will turn into the surrounding mountains and mountain gods to protect them, and the purpose of patrolling the mountains is simply equivalent to patrolling their own territory, and those symbols also represent the realm."

"I've heard of it, but I haven't heard of any legends?"

Zhao Feng behind him became excited, "Old Yang, come and listen." ”

"What to say, the problem now is that these wild men are going to take people up the mountain and burn them,"

Yang Feng looked at Chen Feng and said, "That group of savages said that they can only be handed over to their dead village owner for trial and conviction after the fire, my lord, go over and take a look, I will be fighting when I leave." ”

Chen Fengzi did not dare to hesitate.

However.

When they arrived at the scene of the crime, they saw only a group of people lying on the ground, and several of them were even hit by arrows.

Fortunately, the arrows were all made of bamboo, and the wild men did not dare to kill, and they were all wounded.

When an errand officer saw Chen Feng, he crawled over, "My lord, those savages have no king's law, so we can talk about it, but they hurt people and forcibly took Lu Yuan and Pang Chuan up the mountain." ”

"Alas,"

Yang Feng noticed that Chen Feng's face was very ugly, and said: "My lord, these wild people live by hunting all year round, they are athletic, and they have a strong physique, and it is actually normal for them to not be able to fight. ”

"I'm not going to blame them,"

Chen Fengdao: "I just didn't expect that this group of savages would dare to hurt even officials, even if our people accidentally destroyed their stones, they shouldn't hurt people." ”

"They don't obey the king, and they never take the government seriously,"

In Yang Feng's opinion, this is not surprising, "My lord, you just look at their custom of patrolling the mountains, they have regarded the surrounding mountains as their private property, and there are four characters of the imperial court and the official mansion, compared with the bandits who occupy the mountains, the only difference is that these people are self-sufficient and never disturb the people." ”

"Adults, don't say it,"

A young man stepped forward, anxious, "If you continue to talk about it, I'm afraid that Brother Lu and the two of them will be burned." ”

"That's right,"

Chen Feng didn't dare to delay, and ordered: "Yang Feng Zhao Feng, the two of you take a few people and go up the mountain with me to negotiate." ”

"Yes!"

Immediately, Chen Feng looked at Zhou Fu and said: "Ayou, the matter here will spread soon, you don't have to follow me up the mountain, appease everyone, and inform Lao Wang and ask him to keep an eye on Huang Anfu for me, I'm worried that he will take advantage of this to make some small moves." ”
