Listen to the perfume pavilion.
The table in front of Shangguan Shenhao had been overturned, and the fine red sandalwood table worth thousands of gold was crushed into pieces by a huge force.
Several of Shangguan Shenhao's embroidery works were smashed into pieces.
Several servants serving inside the waterside pavilion held their breaths. They prostrated on the ground, not daring to take a breath.
There were large pieces of dead fish and shrimp floating in the pond outside the water pavilion.
There was deathly silence within the entire ten-foot radius, and you could hear a needle drop.
All this originated from a letter sent back by Yan Guo, the commander of the Xishan County Army.
The news that Wenjia Fort was breached and the Xishan County Army was subsequently disbanded caused the owner of this place to go into a rage.
Long Heng's face was also pale and pale, and his eyes were filled with shock and anger, as well as a bit of disbelief.
Most of the layout of Wenjiabao was arranged by him personally.
He was thoughtful and considered every aspect. Five times the strength was prepared, and they were crushed and surrounded from all directions.
Long Heng believed that this game should have been foolproof.
The problem is that the Wenjia Fort that he imagined was indestructible was destroyed by someone poking at it.
It was like playing Go. The most critical piece in Long Heng's imagination, the one that forced the opponent into a desperate situation, was taken away by someone else as soon as it fell.
The powerful power of Xishan Hall makes all their plans become a joke.
Shangguan Shenhao has gradually calmed down.
But it wasn't until his cousin Shangguan Shenyuan hurriedly walked into the waterside pavilion that Shangguan Shenhao asked with a cold expression: "Shenyuan, what's the situation over there at Wenjiabao? Did it really fall? How many casualties were there? Yue Yue said with a cold expression. Where is Wei?"
Shangguan Shenyuan is the "general manager" of the Shangguan family, who is responsible for spying on details and information.
After all, Yan Guo, the commander of the Xishan County Army, is a member of the commander-in-chief Shen Zhou, and Shangguan Shenhao cannot trust him completely.
In addition, Shangguan Shenhao also held on to the hope of just in case——
How did Xishan Hall capture Wenjia Fort with such little strength?
Thirty-three seventh-grade and six sixth-grade warriors were all killed in Wenjiabao. How is this possible? No one escaped?
Shangguan Shenyuan's expression was as cold as iron: "Wenjia Fort has indeed been captured! Five spies from our Jiantang have sneaked into Wenjia Fort and found that all the Wen family soldiers were killed and injured, and most of the bankers surrendered.
But the strange thing is that they searched the whole fort but couldn't find Yue Wei's body. Not only Yue Wei, but also several other sixth-level combat masters including Wen Tiancai, Yunhe Dao Yin Yang, and Shen Yunxiang, all live without seeing their bodies, and their dead bodies cannot be seen. Thirty-three seventh-grade martial arts cultivators, several of them are also missing. "
Shangguan Shenhao was stunned for a while, and he and Long Heng looked at each other with confused expressions.
Shangguan Shenhao frowned and continued to ask: "So are these people dead or alive?"
"Probably dead!"
The tone of Shangguan Shenyuan, the manager of Jiantang, was categorical: "Yue Wei's children are all in our Shangguan family. Even if he runs away in front of the battle, there is no reason not to contact my family. The same goes for the other Shen family members. The three Shen family members The sixth-grade people are all members of the clan of the county captain Shen Zhou, and it is impossible not to return to the Shen family afterwards.
The spies under my command also told me that when Xishan Hall invaded Wenjia Fort, the entire Wenjia Fort was shrouded in white mist. It was the thick fog caused by the attack of water and fire at the entrance of the fort, but it was so thick that even ninth-level martial arts cultivators could only see a distance of one or two feet around it. In other words, no matter what happened in Wenjiabao at that time, it was difficult for outsiders to know. "
Long Heng raised his eyebrows, then thoughtfully said: "Brother Shenyuan means that this may be Chu Xisheng's intention? What is he trying to cover up with this white mist?"
"It must be so!" Shangguan Shenyuan, the manager of Jiantang, spoke firmly and firmly believed in his judgment: "There are two possibilities now. Yue Wei and others may have died at the hands of Chu Xisheng. Chu Xisheng The purpose of releasing white mist is to conceal one's martial arts, magic weapon, or talent.
However, judging from the situation at the scene, this is unlikely. The greater possibility is that there is another master hidden in Xishan Hall. This person's combat power is at least five levels, and there may even be more than one. One of them was probably the sixth-grade martial artist who helped Chu Xisheng during the battle at Zhiweiju. I concluded that for some reason this person’s identity cannot be revealed——”
Long Heng thought so too.
He smiled bitterly: "No matter what the situation is, it doesn't matter anymore. The current situation is that we have lost everything. The situation in Xiushui County has changed drastically. We should find ways to deal with it in advance."
In this battle, the Shen family suffered heavy losses and lost their vitality.
The entire Xishan Town will be suppressed and wiped out by Chu Xisheng.
The Xishan Hall of the Iron Banner Gang will also rise into a behemoth, hanging in the northwest of Xiushui County like a sword.
This Xishan Hall, which was built less than two months ago, can actually compete with the current Shen family in terms of its actual combat power.
This was enough to send chills down the spines of wealthy families like them in the inner city.
Shangguan Shenyuan, the manager of Jiantang, frowned and looked puzzled: "Since the identities of these masters cannot be revealed to the public, we may find a way from the government and use the Jin Yiwei and the Six Gates to remove them."
"Brother Yuan, this method is very good! But it won't be effective in a short period of time."
Shangguan Shenhao shook his head slightly: "The six gates have just been cleaned, and the Dongzhou Jinyiwei has also lost a lot of masters due to the Nishen Banner, so there is no time to take care of anything else for the time being."
The Jinyiwei Prison was breached before, and the Jinyi Qianhu Prison in Xiushui County lost several sixth-grade men.
Later, when they were chasing Yangyan God's Eye Rising Sun, four fifth-grade masters from Dongzhen Fusi and Dongzhou Wanhusuo were killed and injured on the way to snatch the Nishen Flag.
This time, Xiushui County Jinyiwei was indeed seriously injured.
Shangguan Shenyuan was stunned for a moment, then realized.
The current situation is that the Xiushui County government also has to take action against Xishan Hall and the Iron Banner Gang.
The stronger Xishan Hall is and the greater its influence, the more cautious the government must treat it.
Unless there is actual evidence, the identity of this master can be directly locked and he will be rounded up and killed.
Otherwise, the government will never take risks.
I remember that two years ago, the Iron Flag Gang incited thousands of coolies and boatmen on the docks to attack the government together, forcing the Nanguo County Magistrate of Xiushui County to dismiss from office.
The price the Iron Banner Gang paid was that the twenty-seven people they led were locked up and imprisoned, and were sent to the Northern Xinjiang frontier army.
It is said that these people fled and disappeared without a trace during the transport.
Neither the county governor nor the county captain Shen Zhou himself wanted a large-scale civil uprising to occur in Xiushui County.
Shangguan Shenhao had a huge headache.
The current situation is no longer about killing Chu Xisheng and avenging his broken arm.
Instead, it is necessary to solve the serious problem of Xishan Hall.
Fortunately, most of the men lost in Wenjiabao this time were from the Shen family.
"Send a message to Xi Quan and ask him to sneak back to Xiushui County as soon as possible."
Xi Quan is the chief general of the Shangguan family, with a cultivation level of the fifth rank. He is one of the top ten masters in the county except Yiying Martial Arts Hall.
Like Yue Wei, this person is a wanted criminal by the court.
In the past, Xi Quan practiced evil arts and took the hearts of eighteen babies to prepare medicine, committing a heinous crime. He was supposed to be executed by the county government, but the Shangguan family sent someone to kill him and forcibly saved him.
Because the special envoy of Baihutang inspected Xiushui years ago, Shangguan Shenhao had to send Xi Quanfa out and hide in another county.
Shangguan Shenhao originally planned to make this person lurk for a while, wait until the news passed, and then give Xi Quan an innocent identity.
However, the current situation is dangerous, and Shangguan Shenhao has no choice but to risk recalling Xi Quan.
After Shangguan Shenhao finished speaking, he still frowned and thought about good strategies.
Xi Quan alone cannot cope with the current situation.
At this moment, Long Heng suddenly said: "Master of the Shangguan family, since Xishan Hall has become a trend and it is difficult to eliminate it for a while, you might as well let it go for a while. If you and I keep focusing on this son, we may abandon the roots and chase the tail." , fell into a misunderstanding.”
Shangguan Shenhao couldn't help but let out a "huh" sound, and looked over: "Shedding one's roots and seeking the bottom? What do you mean by that?"
Long Heng held his fists with a calm expression: "The core of the Iron Flag Gang has always been the Iron Madman! With the help of the heavy armor 'Iron Buddha', this man's combat power reached the peak of the fourth grade, and he single-handedly suppressed many masters in Xiushui. , only the county governor can compete with him.
This person is not only the pillar of the Iron Banner Gang, but also the big umbrella over Chu Xisheng's head. As long as this person is still there, you and Mr. Shen Zhou and Shen will be forced to lock up in the city, unable to say anything to Chu Xisheng. Take action directly. "
Shangguan Shenhao's eyes were gloomy.
If he could attack in person this time, Zhuzi would have been crushed by him!
The problem is the iron maniac!
Shangguan Shenhao asked himself that if he joined forces with Shen Zhou, he could only compete with Tie Kuangren.
If they tried their best and refused to escape, they would most likely be beaten to death by the Iron Maniac within ten hours.
The two of them working together can only seriously injure Iron Madman's vitality once.
——This does not take into account the fact that every time Iron Buddha kills a person, its strength will increase by one point.
The eyes of Shangguan Shenyuan, the manager of Jiantang, moved slightly: "You mean to capture the thief first, capture the king first, and shoot the man first, shoot the horse? Iron Madman is indeed the source of all problems. Once this man dies, not only will the Iron Flag Gang be destroyed, but also Chu Xisheng You will definitely die, but it won’t be easy.”
And today's situation is worse than before.
The existence of Xishan Hall forced them to allocate a large amount of manpower to defend the northwest of the county.
"It's not easy, but you have to try your best."
Long Heng straightened his back and looked solemn: "I have received news that Tie Kuangren has purchased the main ingredient of the fourth-level secret medicine of Iron Armor Hunyuan Gong, 'Cangshan Chong', and the rest of the auxiliary materials can be prepared within two to three months at most. Once this person is promoted to the fourth rank, then——"
Long Heng didn't say anything further, but everyone in the waterside pavilion already understood what he meant.
Once Tie Kuangren is promoted to the fourth rank, who else in Xiushui County will be his opponent? Who else can compete with the Iron Flag Gang?
Everything they do now has no meaning.
Shangguan Shenhao's expression became even colder.
He subconsciously touched his steel left arm.
If it weren't for Chu Xisheng, he would have been promoted to the fourth rank before Iron Madman.
This guy!
※※※※
When Tie Kuangren received the letter from the direction of Xishan, he couldn't believe it either.
"Xishantang has captured Wenjia Fort?"
At this time he has put on the 'Iron Buddha'.
This is a full-body heavy armor with a height of one foot. It was originally completely black, with a texture like black crystal, crystal clear, and there were a large number of golden silk patterns inside, forming 11,200 extremely mysterious elixirs and jade urns. .
But now, the outside of the iron pagoda is filled with rich blood energy, dyeing the armor scarlet red.
Just now, Tie Kuangren killed twenty-three death row prisoners and one hundred and seventy-five water thieves who had been infected by the Iron Banner Gang.
The characteristics of Iron Buddha are to improve the defense ability and control the magical power of magnetism and metal.
And every time you kill someone, you can absorb their blood and increase your own strength, which can last for twelve hours.
Therefore, the Iron Banner Gang has stored hundreds of captured water thieves all year round as supplies for the Iron Buddha before the war.
Tie Kuangren was in the armor and could not see the letter talisman directly. He asked incredulously: "How did Xiao Chu capture Wenjia Fort? Is this news true or false?"
Tie Xiaosheng smiled bitterly and said: "This matter is undoubtedly true. The interior of Wenjia Fort has almost turned into white ground. I guess Lianyunhe Villa has been captured by him now.
fo
As for how he captured Wenjiapu, our spies couldn't tell clearly. They said that Wenjia Fort was shrouded in white mist, and then many sixth-grade and more than thirty seventh-grade people inside disappeared in just a short moment. Including Wen Tiancai, many people live without seeing anyone and die without seeing their bodies. "
Tie Kuangren was stunned for a moment, then he clapped his hands and laughed: "As expected of Xiao Chu! I was wondering before, with Xiao Chu's temperament, how could he fight such an unprepared battle, but now it turns out that it is true. This battle will determine the fate of Xishan, and it will hit Shen Shen hard. Home makes my heart happy!”
'Songfengjian' Lin Shi held the letter talisman sent back from Xishan in his hand. He read the content carefully. His face was slightly relaxed, but there was also a hidden worry in his eyebrows: "Flag Master, Hall Master Chu won a great victory in Xishan , this is indeed a great joyous event, but the white fog came out of nowhere, and it is also strange that Wen Tiancai’s body was not found. There is probably an unidentified fifth-level master hiding in Xishan Hall, and this matter must not be ignored. "
Tie Kuangren burst out laughing when he heard this: "Hiding is enough. Xishan Hall hides dragons and crouching tigers. This is a good thing. The more heroes from my Iron Banner Gang, the better."
"good!"
Tie Xiaosheng raised his eyebrows slightly: "After this battle, who in Xishan will dare to offend our Iron Flag Gang? In the future, when the canal is built, Xishan Hall will be able to check and balance the Xiushui Shen family, and our Iron Flag Gang will be able to completely let go."
Lin Shi frowned, but decided to make his concerns clear: "The problem is that this fifth-grade master is not used by our Iron Banner Gang. Also, is the current scale of Xishan Hall too large? I am worried about the future, or there may be Being heavy on the outside and light on the inside is the danger of being overturned."
At this time, the Xishan Hall of the Iron Banner Gang had 700 members, all of whom were well-equipped and all had ninth-level cultivations!
Liu Dingtang's Xishan Hall used to have eight or nine hundred people, but who were they? Less than half of the people have ninth-grade cultivation, and their equipment is even worse.
It is expected that after this battle, the scale of Xishan Hall will expand.
Moreover, with Li Shenshan and Wei Yang, two men from the military, training on behalf of Chu Xisheng, their level of eliteness may surpass those of the Selection Hall in the near future.
It should be noted that the twelve outer halls of the Iron Banner Gang have as many as 300 people and as few as 150 people.
A considerable number of them served as shipowners on various merchant ships and operated river transportation.
Therefore, an altar in Xishan Hall is enough to compete with an outer hall of the Iron Banner Gang.
In addition, the number of masters in Xishan Hall is now catching up with the chief helmsman.
Lin Shi couldn't help but worry about it.
Hearing this, Tie Kuangren smiled casually and didn't care: "What are you talking about, Tai'a Hanging upside down? Our Iron Banner Gang is neither a court nor a rebel. Even if it is a rebellion, there is no way to cut off one's own heroes and generals before he becomes the emperor." reason.
The stronger Xiao Chu's Xishan Hall is, the stronger the momentum of our Iron Flag Gang will be, and the business on the river will be easier, which is a good thing for everyone. This world is big enough to accommodate our brothers. "
When he saw Lin Shi opening his mouth to persuade him again, he waved his hands with a sigh of relief: "Brother Lin, if I can't even tolerate Xiao Chu, what qualifications do I have to aspire to win the title of this great river in the future?
Moreover, the Tieqi Gang is everyone’s foundation, not Tie’s private property. My two brothers have no children. It is difficult to practice the Hunyuan Iron Armor Kung Fu, and every step in the future will be full of dangers. If anything happens to the two of us in the future, Xiao Chu will be the candidate to inherit the Iron Banner Gang's legacy.
Only people like him can support the Iron Flag Gang and prevent the brothers from being helpless. So if it hurts brotherhood, don't say it again. "
When Tie Kuangren said this, everyone around him, including Lin Shi, couldn't help but change their expressions.
Does the banner master intend to establish Chu Xisheng as the young banner master?
Only Tie Xiaosheng was not surprised and smiled lightly.
Tie Kuangren raised his eyebrows slightly and had a heroic spirit: "The reason why Tie runs the Iron Banner Gang is firstly because he is a comrade of the former 'Chongzhou Navy Camp'. He wants to make a living for his brother Paoze, and also to support the former slain Paoze." Family members; secondly, in order to fulfill my master’s last wish, collect money and secret medicine to perfect my Iron Armor Sect’s Hunyuan Iron Armor Technique and advance it to the first level.
If someone can make Tie get what he wants, why not give up the title of the Iron Banner Gang to him? I have decided that once the canal is completed, Xiao Chu will be the deputy flag master, under his elder brother! "
When the iron madman said this, he smacked his lips and secretly laughed at himself.
He had long seen that Chu Xisheng joined the Iron Banner Gang only to use the Iron Banner Gang as a springboard to obtain training resources for their brothers and sisters, so that they could be promoted to the sixth rank and enter the Wuxiang Divine Sect as soon as possible.
Lin Shi thought that Xishan Hall might be too big if it grew too big, but he didn't know that others looked down upon the small pond of the Iron Flag Gang.
In the future, when Chu Xisheng goes to Shenzong's main mountain, they may not be able to stay even if they want to.
That kid has high aspirations, and his future lies only in the sky.
Lin Shi's eyes were blank. He clasped his fists and wanted to say something, but was speechless.
Tie Kuangren already has the intention of establishing Chu Xisheng as his heir, so he can stop talking about "Tai'e hanging upside down".
Lin Shi even felt a little embarrassed by what he said just now.
But Tie Kuangren smiled and patted Lin Shi: "Old Lin's kindness, how can we, brothers, not know about it? But now you should help me think about how to deal with the Seventeenth Link Chain.
The dust has settled on the Xishan side. I want to immediately gather my brothers and go north, sweep several piers at the Seventeenth Link Wharf, open a few more branches upstream, and teach Ren Longshou how to behave. "
He looked down at the blood lingering on his armor: "I finally gathered so many brothers, and inspired this Iron Buddha to the extreme, how can there be no sound?"
This time, in response to the Battle of Xishan, he once again mobilized his gang and gathered 200 warships with nearly 20,000 personnel.
The Iron Maniac even risked damaging the magic weapon and spent more than a hundred lives to inspire the Iron Buddha to its strongest state.
But just as he was getting ready to go, a message came from Xishan to tell him that Wenjia Fort had been breached and there was no need for him to worry about it.
Tie Kuangren didn't want to try his best to hit the target with one blow, so he had no choice but to change the target and let the upstream Seventeen Chain Dock bear it.
※※※※
At the same time, in the west courtyard of Xiushui County Yamen.
Jun Cheng Zuo Tianlu was sitting in the pavilion in the courtyard, with a look of surprise and disbelief on his face.
Zuo Qingyun also saw the letter talisman his father received.
He was calm and sat across from the stone table, waving the folding fan, feeling extremely carefree and at ease: "Who said that before? You have to be discerning when choosing friends. Chu Xisheng will not last long. He is finished this time, and he will definitely keep it." If we don't live in his Xishan Hall and the canal, we might even lose our lives in Wenjiapu."
Jun Cheng Zuo Tianlu raised his eyes and glanced at his son.
He wanted to retort and rebuke, but he was speechless for a long time.
In the face of the facts, any of his words were untenable and made children laugh at him.
Zuo Tianlu thought that this was like hell.
He couldn't understand, how could Wenjiabao lose? How could it be breached in just a moment?
The corner of Zuo Qingyun's lips slightly raised: "By the way, you also said that Shangguan Shenhao and County Lieutenant Shen Zhouju are outstanding people, and Chu Xisheng must not be a match. What now?"
Jun Cheng Zuo Tianlu still said nothing and took a sip of wine with a gloomy look on his face.
The fact is that the Shen family's power in Xishan is about to be wiped out by Chu Xisheng in one fell swoop.
Seeing Zuo Tianlu's appearance, Zuo Qingyun felt extremely happy and excited.
It was the first time he met his father, and he looked so speechless that he couldn't even speak.
"Forget it, I'm too lazy to tell you anymore!" Zuo Qingyun stood up, waving the folding fan and walked towards the door.
Jun Cheng Zuo Tianlu frowned slightly when he saw this: "Where are you going, Zhuzi?"
"Of course I'm going to Xishan Hall to have a drink with Xiao Chu to celebrate."
Zuo Qingyun didn't even look back, and sneered: "Now, father, don't you think that I am causing trouble for the family?"
He swaggered into the gate of the west courtyard and headed towards the stables.
Jun Cheng Zuo Tianlu fixedly looked at Zuo Qingyun's back.
But until Zuo Qingyun got on his mount and rode away, he didn't say anything to stop him.
He laughed at himself, gently shook the wine bottle in his hand, and then drank all the wine in the bottle with a sharp sip.
This time, Zuo Tianlu really made a mistake——
But it is a blessing for Qingyun to have such a friend.
Zuo Tianlu then stood up and walked towards the county government office.
At this time, he flicked the sleeves of his robe, which not only instantly wiped away the wine stains and traces on his official robe, but also made his body smell fresh.
Zuo Tianlu's face was even more energetic, and he didn't appear to be drunk at all.
Since Chu Xisheng won, the things he promised to the other party must be settled.
——Even if it was just for his own evil son, he must help Chu Xisheng eliminate all official hidden dangers.
※※※※
At this time, Chu Xisheng led thousands of people to sweep towards the northwest of Xishan Town.
The battle between Xishan Hall and Wenjiabao is not only related to this year's taxes and the canal, but also determines the rise and fall of power in the Xishan area, and is closely related to everyone.
The rich and powerful families in Xishan couldn't help but pay close attention to this battle.
When the Wenjia Fort was destroyed, the Xishan County army was routed, Yunhe Villa was razed, and the Zhenbei Dan family was forced to surrender, these news spread throughout Xishan in a very short period of time.
This made all the country tycoons who were involved in Wen Tiancai and others' plan to join forces to resist the tax tremble with fear.
Therefore, when the knights from Xishan Hall arrived to convey Chu Xisheng's order, almost all the local tycoons did not hesitate to mobilize their troops and go to join the Xishan Hall's brigade.
There are also some large households on the southeast side that have taken the initiative to raise troops before the knights from Xishan Hall arrive.
They were all afraid that their slow response would anger Chu Xisheng and lead to disaster for their family.
The fact was just as they had judged. The two families along the way who were unwilling to send troops and wanted to hold on to resist were defeated by Xishan Hall.
These two families are not idiots who are ignorant of current affairs, but they have been too involved in the past and can no longer look back.
The two families thought that even if they surrendered, Chu Xisheng would not let them go, so they simply resisted to the end.
However, their small family has been sent to Xiushui County in advance, trying to rely on the Shen family and Shangguan family to make a comeback in the future.
And just when Chu Xisheng finally saw those Xishan bandits.
The number of men under his command has swelled to more than 3,700.
The soldiers of these local tycoons are pretty good, and they all have ninth-level cultivation.
However, the entire formation was chaotic. Dozens of people belonging to local tycoons gathered together, giving different orders, and became a mess.
Li Shenshan and Wei Yang were both talented soldiers, but they could only barely maintain order and let everyone march forward in a queue.
Fortunately, there was no spring plowing yet, otherwise countless crops would have been trampled along the way.
There is no need to count on the combat effectiveness of the overall formation.
Li Shenshan judged that as long as there were 600 frontier soldiers and a competent master commander, they could be defeated with just one charge.
This formation is equal to nothing. They can only rely on their personal combat power to compete with their opponents.
But Chu Xisheng had another clever trick. He placed 600 people from the Dan family at the front of the military formation. Seven hundred people from his own family and Zuo Qingyun's four hundred red robes were responsible for supervising the rear of the palace.
Dan Chiling, the 'Danzi Altar Master', has always had the urge to scold his mother. This bastard clearly regards the people of his Dan family as cannon fodder.
However, he looked at the thousands of people gathered around Chu Xisheng and the knife that Chu Xisheng held in his hand, but he could only hold his nose and respond.
He didn't fall out before, and he can't fall out now.
It was a matter of life and death for his family's soldiers, so Dan Chiling had to use some of his skills and at the same time prepare for the battle mentally.
He also attracted several wealthy families who were close to the Dan family and formed a thousand-man squadron, seemingly sweeping forward in front.
However, although Chu Xisheng's soldiers and horses were stretched, the thieves and bandits from Baiyun Village and Jiudaowu were even more rabble-rous.
There was still a distance of five miles between the two sides, but these Xishan bandits dispersed in a hurry, carrying the stolen gold and silver, and fled towards the Xishan direction.
They brought so much gold and silver that they had to leave some of it behind. They scattered all kinds of property on the ground along the way, causing the rich and powerful soldiers to rob it.
Chu Xisheng was not in a hurry to pursue, but still moved forward unhurriedly.
He didn't bother to pay attention to the soldiers of the wealthy locals who were robbing property, and he only tried his best to control his subordinates.
As long as the 700 gang members under his command, Zuo Qingyun's 400 red robes, and the 600 people from the Dan family remain in chaos, they will be able to deal with any situation no matter what.
It wasn't until they marched to the vicinity of Yixian Gorge and forced all the Xishan bandits into the mountain that Chu Xisheng ordered the entire army to stop.
He left six hundred people from the Dan family alone to guard the exit of the gorge to prevent bandits from the Western Mountains from escaping eastward.
He led the rest of the troops and headed straight for the Shen family farm.
——The Shen family is the mastermind of the tax resistance and the largest landowner in Xishan Town. Chu Xisheng has no reason to let them go.
Just as he said to Wen Tiancai before, he would treat everyone equally this time around.
This time he had to wipe out the Shen family's power in Xishan!
And just when Chu Xisheng withdrew his troops and returned, turning to the south.
On a hilltop not far away, Xia Qingtian, the master of Jiudaowu, Jinghongdao, was looking at him from a distance, with an expression of surprise: "What a Chu Xisheng! He is indeed a young hero."
Beside him was the leader of Baiyun Village, Meng Yunshan, who also frowned: "After this great victory, this boy can still be calm and calm. You and I will be in trouble in the future! "
At this time, there were six hundred ambushes hiding in the forest below them.
However, the main force under Chu Xisheng's command has remained undisturbed. Not only have they not been tempted, they have no intention of pursuing them into the canyon. Their ambush strategy was naturally out of the question.
Both of them realized that the good days of Baiyun Village and Jiudaowu were coming to an end.
They have already ushered in a powerful and vicious opponent.
