I saw that the patrol soldiers came to the grain cart parked behind Zhang Liang, and the leading commander took out his saber and picked up a bag of grain on the top. I saw the yellow and clear rice sloping out of the breach. In order to keep the rice stored longer in the hot and humid climate of South Vietnam, Zhang Liang deliberately bought rice that had not been hulled, so that the rice poured out of the breach in the grain bag looked yellow and clear.

"Where did you come from, don't you know that the sale of grain is forbidden in South Vietnam?" The leader said with a gloomy face.

Zhang Liang had already figured out the situation in South Vietnam before he infiltrated South Vietnam, and he had not heard that South Vietnam had banned grain trafficking. Obviously, this chief is deliberately finding fault.

"This military master, we are grain merchants in Qindi. When I first arrived in your place, I don't know the regulations here, so please forgive me. This is a little bit of heart, and I would like to ask the military master to make it convenient. Zhang Liang said and took out the money bag hanging on his waist, took out a stack of half taels and put it in the palm of the team leader's hand. Although Zhao Tuo cut off Nanyue and established himself as the king of Nanyue, he had not yet issued the coins of Nanyue, so the Qin half tael coin was still the mainstream currency of Nanyue.

"For the sake of your sensible, I'll bypass you for the time being, get out!"

"Yes, yes, yes, the little one will leave right away." Zhang Liang sent away the greedy little Shi Chang and his gang with a smile.

After sending Shi Chang away, Zhang Liang saw Wu Guang come back.

"What just happened?" Wu Guang looked at the group of Shi Chang who was far away and asked suspiciously.

"A bunch of money-hungry minions let me send away with money. How's the news that you're asking for? ”

"Don't say it, I don't know what this Zhao Tuo is eating. In this Nanhai County, there are no less than a dozen bandits, large and small. There is a group of mountain bandits on Qingzhang Mountain, which is dozens of miles away from Hengpu Pass, so I inquired about it. It was the poor people who were forced to have no way to live before they came to this Qingzhang Mountain to settle down and become a coward. Wu Guang told Zhang Liang the news he had inquired about.

"Then have you ever asked how many bandits are suffering from this Qingzhang Mountain?"

"I didn't ask!" Wu Guang scratched his head in disdain.

"You! Don't ask. Zhang Liang shook his head in disappointment.

Seeing Zhang Liang's hatred of iron and steel when he shook his head, Wu Guang came up angrily. Along the way, the respectful "Mr. Zifang, Mr. Zifang" was endless. turned his head and used this rotten Confucian into a master.

"You are a fool, I should not have asked for this news, I should have let you go. I'll learn from you, too. Ay! Just sat down like this, and when he saw a big fart, he hurriedly went up and called 'Master Jun'. By the way, I will pay a few big coins. Wu Guang joked with a look of disdain.

"Alas, you fool, a fool who can cry with a few empty envelopes. I can't ask a single question, and I dare to ridicule me for being a Confucian. ”

"You're no better, have you forgotten how I drove you off Qingyao Mountain in the first place?" Wu Guang retorted angrily.

As the saying goes: "Hitting people does not slap their faces, and scolding people does not expose their shortcomings", but Zhang Liang and Wu Guang obviously ignored this wise admonition. At the beginning, they were in full swing and opened up each other. The entourage standing beside the two did not say anything to persuade them, it seems that this is not the first time that Zhang Liang and Wu Guang have behaved, and the entourage is obviously used to such a scene. Along the way, Wu Guang and Zhang Liang have indeed let a group of relatives really witness what it means to be "not enemies and not get together".

After half a pillar of incense, Wu Guang came to Zhang Liang again.

"Mr. Zifang, what should I do next?"

"What else can I do, you go and ask about the situation of the mountain bandits in Qingzhang Mountain." Zhang Liang pretended to be angry and said.

Wu Guang had no choice but to obediently go to inquire about the news of Qingzhang Mountain.

A moment later, Wu Guang went and returned. came to Zhang Liang with a proud face.

"Mr. Zifang, this time I have found out clearly. There are more than 30 mountain bandits on Qingzhang Mountain, and there are three bandit leaders in total......"

Wu Guang told Zhang Liang all the news he had inquired about, and he didn't care whether the news was useful or not.

"Our opportunity has come, and this Qingzhang Mountain is a good choice. It can not only avoid Zhao Tuo's encirclement and suppression, but also close to Hengpu Pass, and can retreat and defend. More than 30 mountain bandits, all of whom were poor people, should be able to buy them for some money and food. Zhang Liang looked at Wu Guang and said.

So Zhang Liang and his entourage pulled more than a dozen grain trucks towards Qingzhang Mountain. In the middle of the day, the group finally arrived at the foot of Qingzhang Mountain. I saw that Qingzhang Mountain was covered by lush forests, which was a good place to pull people into trouble. Zhang Liang arranged for Wu Guang and his brigade to rest at the foot of the mountain, while he took a few followers into the mountain to look for traces of the mountain bandits.

At sunset, Zhang Liang returned to the bottom of the mountain with several mountain bandits, and after some negotiations, he pulled the grain cart into Qingzhang Mountain. After Zhang Liang and Wu Guang entered Qingzhang Mountain, they spent money to buy the most greedy of the three bandit leaders, and then united with the bandit leader to get rid of the other two leaders. It only took Zhang and Wu three days to control Qingzhang Mountain.

At this time, in the Nanyue Royal Mansion of Panyu, Zhao Tuo was dreaming of joining forces with Jiangdong to annex Daqin, Qianzhong County and Changsha County. As everyone knows, Fusu has already dropped a chess piece in South Vietnam.

"Wu Guoxiang, does Jiangdong Xiang Yu's uncle and nephew agree to join forces with me to seize the two counties of Qianzhong and Changsha?" Zhao Tuo stared at Minister Wu Jian and asked.

"King Yu, the Jiangdong Xiang clan has been scared of Fuso. He did not dare to plot with our South Vietnam to attack Changsha and Qianzhong County. ”

"A group of cowards, Lao Tzu was cut off by others, and even his wife was snatched away. In the end, he cut Hengshan County to others, which is a shame. If General Xiang Yan knew underground, he would be ashamed of this group of juniors. Zhao Tuo sighed angrily.

"Your Majesty, now that Fusu is powerful, your subordinates think that my South Vietnam is not suitable for the time being. There is Jiangdong Xiangliang in front, and Mandanyu in Hexi, and I can't help but guard against Nanyue! Wu Jian suggested solemnly.

"Alas, Wu Guoxiang is too worried, I have 300,000 troops in South Vietnam, and there are Nanling to block the Qin army. And the three passes of Hengpu, Yangshan, and Huangxi are all easy to defend and difficult to attack, so does his Huben army of Fusu have to fly over? Zhao Tuo said proudly.

The reason why Zhao Tuo dared to take advantage of the power struggle between Fusu and Huhai to cut off the three counties of Nanyue and establish himself as the king of Nanyue was because of the dangerous terrain of Nanyue. When Zhao Tuo saw that Fusu attacked Jiangdong and Hexi without touching his Nanyue, he naively thought that Fusu had no way to take his Nanyue. So he came up with the idea of attacking the two counties of Qianzhong and Changsha. It stands to reason that Zhao Tuo's calculations are also reasonable, and it is naturally best to be able to obtain the two counties of Qianzhong and Changsha. If you can't take it, it doesn't hurt, it's a big deal to return to South Vietnam. The bad thing is that Fusu has never been a person who takes things for granted.

When Zhao Tuo was still immersed in the fantasy of attacking Qianzhong and Changsha counties, Zhang Liang and Wu Guang had already begun to recruit troops in Qingzhang Mountain. Thanks to the five million money given by Fusu, Zhang and Wu were able to pull up a team of 5,000 people in just two months.

On this day, Zhang Liang extracted 2,000 people out of Qingzhang Mountain, quietly went around to Hengpu Pass, and attacked the grain and grass warehouse of the Hengpu Pass garrison at night.

Three days later, the news of the attack on the grain and grass at Hengpu Pass was sent to the palace of the Nanyue king.

"Your Majesty, a group of bandits claiming to be Zhang Guang and Wu Liang have attacked the grain and grass depot of our Hengpu Pass garrison. He robbed 1,000 stone of military rations and set fire to the remaining 50,000 stone of grain and grass. The signal soldiers from Hengpu Pass reported the matter of Hengpu Pass to Zhao Tuo in detail.

"Zhang Guang and Wu Liang, why haven't you heard of these two thieves before?" Zhao Tuo said to himself suspiciously.

In fact, this is just Zhang Liang's ploy to hide people's eyes. On that day, after Zhang Liang and Wu Guang went to Qingzhang Mountain, they changed their names and surnames. Zhang Liang called Zhang Guang, and Wu Guang became Wu Liang, which was actually to mislead Zhao Tuo, so that he would not be able to guess Fusu's head for a while. After all, Zhang Liang's reputation is still relatively loud, and there are people who know Zhang Liang in the court of Nanyue.

In the next period of time, the names that the king of Nanyue heard the most were this Zhang Guang and Wu Liang.

"King Yu, Zhang Guang and Wu Liang led the crowd to attack Longchuan County, smashed the Longchuan Mansion, and killed the Longchuan County Commander."

"The king, that Zhang Guang and Wu Liang robbed the grain team that transported grain to Yangshan Pass, and captured fifty soldiers who guarded the grain."

"King Yu, the bandits of Zhang Guang and Wu Liang attacked my South Vietnamese tax collector and his party, and robbed me of all the taxes in Sihui and Boluo counties of Nanhai County."

……

All of a sudden, news of the activities of Zhang Guang and Wu Liang's bandit army spread from all over Nanhai County. Zhang Guang and Wu Liang really became Zhao Tuo's nightmare, making it difficult for Zhao Tuo to sleep for a while.

On this day, I saw Wu Jian, the minister of South Vietnam, rushing into the palace of South Vietnam in a hurry. Seeing Wu Jian's hurried appearance, Zhao Tuo instantly had an ominous premonition.

"Don't tell me the news of Zhang Guang and Wu Liang again." Zhao Tuosheng said unlovingly.

"Your Majesty, it is indeed the news of Zhang Guang and Wu Liang, but this time it is good news."

"What's the news?" Zhao Tuo sat up straight after hearing this, and asked curiously.

"The Tancai has already found out the hiding place of Zhang Guang and Wu Liang's bandit army, which is in the Qingzhang Mountain"

Zhao Tuo stood up excitedly after hearing this. During this period of time, he was fed up with the torture of these two people, and the 20,000-strong army almost searched Nanhai County, but he couldn't find the hiding place of Zhang Guang and Wu Liang.

In fact, Zhang Liang and Wu Guang have been in Qingzhang Mountain all along, but they have been playing hide and seek with Zhao Tuo's army. When Zhao Tuo's army searched the mountains, Zhang Liang distributed all the materials to individuals, and then under the guidance of those soldiers who had hunted and collected medicine in Qingzhang Mountain, they hid in pieces, and traveled between Qingzhang Mountain and Nanling. More than 20,000 people who accompanied Zhao Tuo played hide and seek. All this was learned by Zhang Liang from Fusu's surprise attack on Jiangdong.

When Zhao Tuo determined the hiding place of Zhang Guang and Wu Liang, he immediately mobilized an army of 50,000 to surround Qingzhang Mountain.
