In a flash, Chao Gai stayed in Yanggu County for five days!

Yanggu County and Yunzhou attach great importance to the incident of strongmen attacking the city. Strictly traced the whereabouts of the strongman, followed the vines along the way, and summoned the people to identify, but unfortunately, after a few days of busy work, there was little information to be obtained.

It is estimated that the imperial court will definitely be guilty again!

No, the Yunzhou soldiers and horses are in charge of the two-gun general Dong Ping and lead people to chase the strongman around. On the mountains of the territory, the thieves poured blood mold and became scapegoats.

Chao Gai knows a little bit through the feedback from scouts from all over the world, and he is still being investigated. Strong people are familiar with the terrain, and there are people to answer, and most of the origins are not simple.

In a few days, he did what he said, and personally went to the county to visit He Jiu's house with gifts, and mentioned the marriage for Wu Dalang, which was completely finalized. and invited He Jiu to work in Chaojiazhuang with a good salary.

He Jiu readily agreed, and was willing to run with his family.

The development of Wu Song's case is similar to that of the original trajectory. killed Ximenqing to eliminate harm for the people, and the people in the city spontaneously organized fundraising and sent money and food.

Qiao County ordered the trial of the case and also said good things for Wu Song.

Of course, it doesn't matter whether it's true or not, the Jeju officers are staring at it for real.

Wu Song was sent to Yunzhou City, Zhizhou Chen Wenzhao admired the prestige of the tiger hero, and had the intention to excuse Wu Song without reporting to the imperial court.

The culpability was so light that he didn't even tattoo his face with a tattoo.

If it is not for the testimony of witnesses, instead of being innocent, it will be of great merit. It was only a symbolic two-year allotment, and he returned after completing his sentence and receiving amnesty.

still went to the Mengzhou prison camp, which is the same as in the original trajectory.

Chao Gai was both emotional and embarrassed when he learned the news, and on the day Wu Song returned to Yanggu County to be detained, Pan Jinlian and Wu Dalang quietly went to visit at night. After coming back, he packed up his things, and He Jiu was also busy selling land and moving.

Wu Song's affairs have been settled, and the ghost Cao Zheng and his wife can return to the base camp. It's just that the couple still need to stay in the restaurant and hand over, and they are also responsible for taking care of Wu Song's diet and daily life before the end of his sentence.

Avoid the trouble at Simon's house, and the dog jumps over the wall in a hurry.

Pan Jinlian and Wu Dalang are also not suitable to stay in Yanggu County. Can only return with the party.

At noon the next day, the team set off to return to Chaojiazhuang.

It's just that compared to when they came, there were a few more carriages, and the speed of the march was somewhat affected. Fortunately, the team was only in a hurry, and camped in the field before dark. There were no accidents along the way, but there was an interesting incident.

It's when the team is buried in the pot and cooking.

Wu Dalang's skills were itchy and took the initiative to teach everyone to make cooking cakes. Don't really say it, Da Lang looks a little frustrated, but he is kind, so he doesn't have to say it. In particular, the craft of making cooking cakes is completed in one go after a set of processes.

It was praised by everyone, and some people even learned from their teachers.

Chao Gai is a strong supporter of this, and encourages him to study hard and not to be pressured by art.

Cooking cakes, this thing is not the kind of buns, baked cakes and the like that filmed in TV dramas, but uses a sieve to sift the mixed flour into layers and stack them.

Then, it is placed on a steamer basket to steam.

Soft and delicious, like a hair cake, and like bread but chewy, delicious.

Very hungry, especially after drinking water, the feeling of satiety is very strong. Most of the guards didn't know the situation, and they didn't listen to the persuasion and ate too much, humming and chirping all the way.

Chaojiazhuang's wilderness village stores are distributed all over the country, and after more than a year of development, they are becoming more and more mature. In addition to collecting intelligence, it is to hoard various materials such as food and medicinal herbs to prepare for future military operations.

To put it simply, it solves the problem of logistics and supply!

Therefore, in the afternoon of the next day, Chao Gai led the team back to Chaojiazhuang.

From a distance, Chaojiazhuang looks like an ancient giant beast lying on the ground. When you get close to the city, the city walls and gate towers that are several feet high are even more shocking.

The long queue at the city gate is very lively!

Wu Dalang, Pan Jinlian, and He Jiu's family, who came for the first time, were a little confused. Killing them could not have imagined that a Zhuangzi would become a city. The three big characters of Chaojiazhuang on the gate of the city indicate that this is a Zhuangzi.

The first village in the world? Pan Jinlian murmured.

Is there a sheep's head to sell dog meat? This sentence came to the mind of He Jiu, who was old and refined.

No matter how shocked a few people were, the gaze that looked at Chao Gai was a little strange.

Chao Gai is used to being watched by people and is already immune, and he leads people into the city with a blank face. Of course, it was through the small door next to it, and there were too many people in and out of the city.

In addition to the surrounding people, there are many caravans from all over the country. The queue outside was long, the water was impassable, and one gate was not enough.

It seems like an additional city gate is going to be added!

Chao Gai entered the city and saw the crowded streets, so he made up his mind and went straight back to the house to let Chao Fu settle Wu Dalang and Pan Jinlian and others.

On the march, it was already said.

He Jiu's family has a single courtyard in the city, and they can serve if they adapt to the environment. Pan Jinlian and Wu Dalang first familiarize themselves with the new environment and do whatever they want.

Chao Gai first learned about the situation in the house, and returned to the inner house after there was no abnormality. What he didn't expect was that when Li Qingwan, Li Shishi, and Li Qingzhao saw him returning, tears were about to fall out and rushed to his arms.

There were also a few old mothers behind her, shouting things like you can't run. When I saw the Chao Gai who was dressed in military uniform, the flower posture was busy stopping to salute.

"Husband, are you back?" Li Qingwan looked at Chao Gai pitifully. Master Li and Li Qingzhao also had some grievances on their pretty faces.

"We can't do anything during this time?"

"That is, if you do something, you will be controlled and stopped."

"Woo woo, in your words, someone follows you when you go to the toilet."

The three women complained to Chao Gai while staring at the old women who came over.

Chao Gai held back a smile, looked at a few submissive old women, and looked at the aggrieved lady with a face full of grievances, and said comfortingly: "You don't know how to be blessed in the midst of blessings." They are also kind, for your good! Old mothers, Mrs. can exercise properly, they are in good health. ”

Chao Gai also has experience in dealing with this kind of thing, and turned around and told the old woman. Several people heard the words and said that they would try to pay attention to proportions in the future.

gave a few wives and sons a half-day off, and was rewarded.

Chao Gai coaxed the ladies back to the bedroom, shushing the cold and asking for warmth, and caring for them. Ask them if they have been unwell for a few days, have they eaten well, and finally lie on their bulging bellies to listen and feel the fetal movements.

His care and his stupidity, Li Qingwan, Master Li, and Li Qingzhao's mood was much better, and he also understood the old woman's approach.

made Huazi both scared and envious, and quietly touched her stomach.

Chao Gai returned from Yunzhou, and Gu Sanniang, a young man who trained the army in the military camp in the city, and the female Zhuge Yelu Dali rushed back quickly, and she was warm.

It seems to have become a habit to prepare a large supplementary meal for someone.

Hu Sanniang and Huazi enthusiastically helped, and Li Qingzhao was personally responsible for cooking. Chao Gai watched his face twitch on the side, and sighed how difficult life is.

Zhiduoxing Wu Yong, and pharmacist Xiao Jiasui came together.

Chao Gai met with the two military advisors in his study to learn about the recent events.

With the advent of deep winter, a large number of people poured into Chaojiazhuang on the side of Erlong Mountain, including 70,000 or 80,000. Fortunately, there is a diversion of Liangshan, and there are many ready-made houses, and there is no poor settlement.

The business with Hedong Tianhu has also been negotiated, and it is another transaction of hundreds of thousands of yuan. In addition to leather armor, bows and arrows and other weapons, 2,000 war horses, each 100 guan (a business opportunity only after the northern horses were monopolized).

Chaojiazhuang did not come out of the horse, outsourcing each horse fifty times, the list was taken by the eunuch, Cai Jing, and the family got a horse, just to be transported over to trade.

You and I are willing, and we are all happy!

A letter of information from Bianliang City made Chao Gai bittersweet.

The assassination of Zhu Mian some time ago, and the action in Bianliang City had an effect. The Eighth Emperor Song Huizong was furious, and the imperial court made a move, and the forbidden troops from all over the country were transferred to the Jiangnan region to assemble, apparently against Manichaeism.

The generals have not yet been selected, but the movement of troops and horses is not small. Not to mention that there were also thirty or twenty thousand elite forbidden troops, cavalry and infantry.

Manichaeism is exposed, which is in line with Chaogai's strategic goals.

It's just that Jiangnan Road, Liangzhejiang Road and other places are too far away from Shandong. The intelligence services have not yet made a big presence there, and only sporadic strongholds exist.

If there is a real conflict, there is no way to understand the situation over there.

"Inform Guan Zhong and let our people take root over there and grasp the situation in time." Chao Gai put down the information in his hand, was silent for a moment, and then ordered.

"Hehe, I think so too!" Wu Yong nodded, and then said: "Jiankang Mansion, Jiangzhou is doing well, we can rely on it to expand." ”

"Yes, Brother Dai Zong's letter said that he was in a panic, so he moved completely." Xiao Jiasui also knew the importance of intelligence, and agreed with both hands.

"That's it!" In addition, the city wall has an extra door? One door is too crowded. "After Chao Gai had a layout for the war in Jiangnan, he thought that the city gate was crowded.

To this end, discuss with the two military advisors!

It's just that this matter is related to the planning of the city, all kinds of buildings, and so on.

I think it is necessary to open a door, but how to open it and where to open it needs to be considered in the long run. After the two military advisors took their leave, Shi Xiu, who was desperate, found Chao Gai.

He closed the door and handed over a note: "Brother, Li Junshi summoned two days ago, saying that he had gotten along well with the target and was ahead of Fangzhou as planned." ”

Chao Gai knew what Li Zhu was doing, so he didn't look at the note in his hand, so he quickly ordered: "San Lang, reply to the military advisor not to be in a hurry, and follow the step-by-step process." ”

Immediately, he talked about the strongman in Yanggu County and told him to pay more attention. Seeing Shi Xiu's back, he felt more and more like an old yin. This is the exercise of authority, from striking and rushing to decision-making and commanding.

"The wheels of history are unstoppable." Chao Gai looked at the note in his hand and was silent for a moment, shook his head and sighed, and took the fire fold and burned it. Tell Yu Tai not to see anyone, sit in the study and think about the future.

When did the army become independent? How to deal with the enemy in the back?

These problems cannot be avoided, and they are all faced by Chao Jiajun.

……

Muzhou, Qingxi County.

Bangyuan Cave, this big karst cave is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the interior is built to be splendid. This is Fangla, which is also the nest of Manichaeism.

The top leaders of the denomination come together to discuss the crisis they are facing.

The senior management of Fangla Group, who had been in the shadows, was a little puzzled and confused. How could a missionary in a good way suddenly come to light? 1. Zhu Mian is also their target of killing. Why did anyone do it earlier?

Doubts are doubts, but they have to face the impending crusade.

You can't do anything, you can only start it in advance!
