Chapter 189: Hidden Front

When Yu Zhu rushed to Maozhou City with reinforcements with a tired face, Huang Dagen had already returned with his horses. According to the previous agreement, the war horses belonged to the Thunderbolt army, and the rest of the booty belonged to the two states of Weimao. When this expeditionary horse army set out from Longdong, it brought 3,400 horses, and when it arrived at the Songzhou grassland, there were still 2,800 horses left, and more than 600 horses were killed and injured during the blasting. The Thunderbolt army captured 2,100 horses in the first battle, and it really made a fortune, you must know that the entire Sichuan Song army only had a few thousand horses. Now Huang Dagen finally understands why the Mongols are keen to invade everywhere, and it is too easy to get rich overnight by plundering and making war fortunes. It is no wonder that Brother Xuan often told the top brass of the Perak army not to have any illusions about the Mongol army, but to have a clear understanding of their wolf ambitions, so he often used the words of his predecessor Mongol Great Khan to warn everyone: "The greatest joy in life is to kill the enemy, rob them of all their property, watch their relatives cry bitterly, and ride their horses ......." ”

The harvest of Weimao and Weimao is also extremely rich, not to mention that the swords and armor of the 1,000 cavalry are worth a lot, and the more than 600 captives who are strong but have three fingers cut off are also a huge income. When the Wei Mao soldiers cut off the fingers of the captives one by one, these colored people tried to resist, and at the same time scolded the Wei Mao soldiers for not keeping their promises, but their hands and feet were tied to death, where they could move for half a minute, they had to be slaughtered. As for the dishonesty, in the eyes of Wei Maobing, they only promised to surrender and not kill, but they did not promise not to cut off the fingers of the people.

Although the local officials and native soldiers on the Weimao side have made a fortune, they still can't help but be red when they see that there are so many war horses in the Thunderbolt army. It's just that it was the gunpowder of the Thunderbolt Army that played a decisive role in this battle, and they had nothing to say on the surface. Yu Zhu and Huang Dagen saw some signs, so they spent a lot of money to buy the more than 600 dead horses, and prepared to make pickled horse meat and bring them back to Chongqing Mansion. Horse meat is not uncommon in the two states, but it is very popular with Perak soldiers. In addition, Huang Dagen gave another sum of money to entrust Weimao officials to clean up the blocked mountain roads in the future. The reason why the mountain road was cleared in the future was, on the one hand, to prevent the Mongolian army from moving south from Songzhou again in the short term, and on the other hand, the dammed lake had already formed and could not be cleaned up at all. After getting two more sums of money, the faces of the Weimao officials improved greatly, and they all became pleasant.

Once the dammed lake is formed, the amount of water will accumulate more and more, until the water pressure breaks through the stones blocked in the river, and the accumulated water will form a flood peak, which will rush downstream with a thunderous momentum, and flow into several branches at Guankou Village to flow to various places in the western Sichuan Plain. It is foreseeable that wherever Hong Feng goes, the western Sichuan Plain, including the Perak Military District, will become a Ze country. The only way to do this is to widen the gap in the dammed lake so that a short-term flood becomes a long-term mini-flood, and then to prepare for it in advance and relocate people and property in low-lying areas. Thinking of the dammed lake hanging overhead, Yu Zhu couldn't sit still anymore, and after he negotiated with Huang Dagen about related matters, he took the two battalions of reinforcements and escorted the horses to the direction of Guan Kou Village.

The news that the Thunderbolt army had captured a large number of war horses naturally could not be hidden. Naturally, the forces of all parties have planted spies in the territory of the Perak Army, and the amount of management, field, and forage required for more than 2,000 horses is huge, and naturally they can't hide from these eyes hidden in the shadows. According to Dong Hu's estimates, there are more than 100 hidden spies in the territory of the Perak Army, and there are dozens of people in this counterintelligence company alone who have obtained evidence, and among these people are spies from the Mongolian army, as well as those sent by Yu Xing, Cao Zhizhou, and others. The activities of these people are all under the control of the counter-espionage company. The reason why Ouyang Xuan did not order them to be arrested was that on the one hand, he wanted to cast a long line to catch big fish, or even plot them against to provide false information, and on the other hand, he took into account the reactions of his allies, especially the secret agents in Jiading and Yazhou, most of whom were in a dormant period and should not be used for the time being. Of course, if they do something harmful to the Peraks, they will be unceremoniously brought to justice.

The handling of Fang Wen and Fang Ermei, the two husbands and wives, followed this principle. Fang Wen is Cao Zhizhou's henchman, and Fang Ermei is his wife. The two pretended to be brothers and sisters and pretended to be refugees from Meizhou to the territory of the Perak Army, and settled in Dayi City, and opened a small restaurant as a cover. The city was originally a military industrial stronghold, with not only arsenal workers, but also troops, both of which were precisely their targets. Because the food sold by the two of them was cheap, and they were able to talk kindly, and they could get meat and wine from time to time, so the business was very prosperous, and there were many regular customers who came and went. Among these regulars, there was an arsenal mechanic named Wu Daya who caught their special attention.

This Wu Daya was originally a poor boy in Yizheng County, who was recruited into the arsenal because of his clever mind and ingenuity, and soon became a technical backbone, specializing in the production of new grenades. Its withdrawn personality and the fact that he was afraid of hunger since he was a child, his only hobby is eating meat. As a technical backbone, Wu Daya's income is not low, and he is a single person who feeds the whole family and is not hungry, but he can occasionally make a tooth sacrifice. Fang Wen's restaurant is the only one in Dayi City that can provide meat every once in a while, and occasionally wine, which naturally became a place where Wu Daya often came, and he also became familiar with Fang Wen.

As long as Wu Daya came, this Fang Wen had no intention of taking his words. To say that this Wu Daya is not stupid, when he comes, he eats, and when he eats, he leaves, Fang Wen can't get what he wants at all, and he is so anxious that his heart is angry. "I can't bear the child can't trap the wolf", Fang Wen gritted his teeth and made a big move - to introduce Fang Ermei to Wu Daya as his wife, which made Wu Daya overjoyed. The Perak Army encouraged early marriage and early childbearing, and the workers who entered the factory together were all married, but no one paid attention to his ugliness. Although the second sister is a little older, she looks extremely standard, and Wu Daya will drool when she thinks about it, where will she not respond. It's just that the second sister Fang is unwilling, she and Fang Wen are husband and wife, how could she have thought that Fang Wen would cuckold herself in order to be promoted and make a fortune. It's just that she couldn't stand Fang Wen's persuasion, and promised her that as long as she got something, she would go back to Yazhou to enjoy happiness, and finally agreed to have a false relationship with Wu Daya.

To say that Wu Daya can become a technical backbone from a poor boy, his brain is definitely not ordinarily smart. No matter how coquettish Fang Ermei was, he just didn't agree to those requests that violated the regulations. This made Fang Wen so anxious that the corners of his mouth were on fire, it seemed that this ugly boy was the master of "not seeing rabbits and not scattering eagles", so he had to force him to use a killer weapon. At this time, Fang Ermei also entered the role, gritted her teeth and simply agreed. In getting along with Wu Daya, she kept her eyes closed - Wu Daya was too ugly and had bad breath.

After getting Wu Daya, the drawings of the new grenade were also successfully obtained. It's just that when Fang Wen asked to steal another grenade, Wu Daya refused to agree, saying that the risk was too high, and if he was discovered, even if he didn't lose his head, he would serve in the mine for life. To do this, you must marry Second Sister Fang. Wu Daya still doesn't know that Fang Wen and Fang Ermei are called brother and sister, but they are actually husband and wife. Fang Wen's face turned green when he heard Wu Daya's conditions, he originally just wanted to seduce, but this kid actually had to make inches. It's just that until now, there is only a simple end.

Second Sister Fang was helpless, so she deceived Wu Daya and stole the grenade. This Wu Daya is not a fuel-efficient lamp, he stole the grenade in the form of spare parts, and every time he stole it, he had to let Fang Ermei accompany him once. Second Sister Fang had to hold back the churning in her chest, and forced a smile to accompany Wu Daya. One day half a month later, when Wu Daya fell asleep beside Fang Ermei, he muttered to himself that the parts were complete, and they would be assembled as finished products next time. Hearing this, Second Sister Fang let out a long breath of turbidity.

The next morning, Wu Daya woke up and saw no Fang brothers and sisters.
