One night without words, the next day
Jia Heng found Huang Tai, and in the morning, under his recommendation, he negotiated with a silk and satin shop in the county to borrow silk from its inventory, but he declined.
And all this fell into the eyes of the tooth general named Chen Cheng sent by Yun Guang, and he quickly reported it to Yun Guang.
Yun Guang was confused for a moment and stared at it again.
After asking four or five companies in this way, I finally got a letter from a cloth shop whose signboard was "Mingyue Chanjuan" and borrowed three thousand pieces of silk.

Jia Heng was startled and suspicious, and showed Jin Yiwei's waist badge. After asking carefully, he was speechless for a moment.
Well, it's not someone else, it's the property of the eldest princess of Jinyang.
Huang Tai followed Jia Heng out of the cloth shop and said, "Sir, this cloth shop has a mysterious background. If something goes wrong, I'm afraid we can't afford to pay for it."
This is to remind Jia Heng that this family's debt is not good.
"It doesn't matter, we are just borrowing it temporarily and will return it later." Jia Heng nodded, and for a moment, he also thought of the broad-minded His Highness Jinyang.
Huang Tai whispered: "I think that person has already started to have doubts."
Jia Heng said: "Find an opportunity to let him know. Don't be too deliberate. Let them guess it by themselves."
The more you come to a conclusion, the more convinced you are.
Huang Tai nodded, understanding.
Jia Heng said: "Look for a smart person who knows the mountain roads. You will need to lead the way tomorrow."
Afterwards, the two of them went back to the military camp to select elite soldiers.
There was light and darkness, but Jia Heng's movements were naturally detected by Yun Guang, a local snake.
In the afternoon, Yun Mansion
Yun Guang, who was eating under the concubine's service, listened to Chen Cheng, the tooth general, tell what Jia Heng had done that morning. Dao Scar showed confusion on his face and said, "What are they doing borrowing silk here and there?"
Chen Cheng said: "Sir, I think I must have a trick."
"What the hell do you have to say? I didn't know they had a trick!" Yun Guang cursed angrily, frowning in thought.
At this moment, Jiang Jie, the tooth general who ran from outside, cupped his hands and said, "Sir, I heard about it."
"What did you find out?" Yun Guang asked with an expectant look on his face.
Yun Guang was not idle in the morning. He went to Cai Quan's army with Jiang Jie to inquire about information.
Not long after Cai Quan was promoted to Deputy Qianhu, he already had several Baihu subordinates who were not from the old department, and one of them was quite dissatisfied with Cai Quan.
"Sir, what do you think Commander Jia is doing?" Jiang Jie, with a dark face and a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, said with a smile.
A fierce look appeared on Yun Guang's face, and he said: "If you have any trouble, hurry up, I don't have time to listen to your excuses!"
Jiang Jie smiled sarcastically and said, "Sir, Commander Jia wants to use some kind of trick to lure troops. I heard that he has already divided into two groups. He is going to take 200 old and weak people with him and escort 3,000 pieces of silk from Yang. Pass through the intersection, and then set up an ambush on the other side of the road, ready to wait and see."
Chen Cheng, the tooth general on the side, smiled and said: "This is too whimsical."
Hearing this, Yun Guang waved his hand and said with a sneer: "This is really not a fantasy. Three thousand pieces of silk are worth tens of thousands of taels. Zhang Wu from Cuihua Mountain may not be tempted. If he is not careful for a moment, he may be possessed by it. hand."
"Didn't they just absorb another group of poles? Now there are six to seven hundred people in total. If they all come out, they may not be able to fight." Chen Cheng frowned and said.
These two tooth generals are Yun Guang's confidants, and have helped contact the bandits in Cuihua Mountain.
"Where can everyone come out?" Yun Guang said coldly, "Zhang Dayan can't even believe it. He said there are six to seven hundred people. Damn it, the ordnance purchased from him in batches is almost enough for eight or nine hundred people." , after this, we can no longer let this guy grow up."
He has amassed nearly a thousand troops, which can break Chang'an County. He just makes some money and has no intention of rebelling!
"Sir, what should we do now?" Chen Cheng asked.
"You personally deliver a message to Zhang Dayan, asking him to take advantage of his plan and send as many troops as possible. Except for Jia Heng, I'll let him be smart!" Yun Guang sneered and thought, "Even if the imperial court sends Jin Yiwei to investigate in the future, We can’t find anything wrong, but we can only say that Jia Heng is a kid who thinks he’s too smart, and his trick to lure soldiers didn’t work, but the bandits saw through it and killed him, and he died at the hands of others, but he laughed for others!”
This is simply a seamless plan to kill with a borrowed knife.
Chen Cheng took the order and went.
…
…
The night is blurry, the bright moon shines brightly, the cold wind rustles in the forest, Cuihua Mountain is shaded by hazel trees, and the valley is surrounded by gurgling streams.
Different from what Jia Heng imagined, Zhang Wu and his gang of bandits in Cuihua Mountain did not build a lair on the mountainside in a terrain that was easy to defend and difficult to attack. Firstly, the amount of work was too large, and secondly, if they were located, they would be surrounded.
Therefore, villages and crenels were built on flat land in the valley.
In the Juyi Hall, sitting on a tiger-skin chair, was a fat man. Zhang Wu was wearing an Orion short-game shirt. He was tall, dark-skinned, with eyes like copper bells and a short beard under his chin.
There is also a scholar in white shirt sitting at the bottom. His name is Fan Yi. He has a thin face, fair skin, and a long beard under his chin. He has a graceful appearance. He is holding a tea cup in his hand, lowering his head to taste it. There is a crutch beside him. It was obvious that my legs and feet were very inconvenient.
Zhang Wu handed the letter to the second master Luo Xiong and said with a smile: "The Beijing camp is advancing for suppression. Master Jiedu is more anxious than me, the mountain king."
The third and fourth masters of Cuihuashan, who were baring their breasts and drinking and having fun with the woman in their arms, all burst out laughing.
"The boss is worried that we won't give him any money!" Cuihuashan's third boss said with a smile.
The tooth general Chen Cheng below had an ugly expression, not because of anger, but because of fear.
He followed Cuihuashan's spy in Chang'an County and covered his eyes with black cloth all the way, lest he be recognized on the way.
As Yun Guang said, Zhang Wu was not at ease with the officers and soldiers at all.
"Okay, your envoy, please go down and rest first, and let me entertain you." Zhang Wu waved his hand and said with a smile.
It was already night, and it was obvious that he could not go back and recover.
Chen Cheng said: "I wonder if the boss will take action tomorrow?"
"Presumptuous!" The second master, Luo Xiong, who was sitting next to him, had a sneer on his thin lips under his aquiline nose. "Do we need to make it clear to you whether we are going to do anything?"
Chen Cheng showed fear on his face and hesitated to respond.
Zhang Wu smiled, waved his hand, and said, "Brother Luo Xian, it doesn't have to be like this."
This Luo Xiong had just brought more than a hundred people to vote. Respecting his outstanding martial arts skills, he gave him the second place.
Zhang Wu waved his hand to his subordinates to take Chen Cheng down. Fang put away the letter, looked at Fan Yi with bright eyes, and said, "Sir, what do you think Yun Guang is sending this letter?"
Fan Yi put down the tea cup and said calmly: "It's just a borrowed knife to kill people. It seems that Commander Jia offended Master Yun, so he wanted to use it. However, the boss has to guard against Yun Guang and not attack him with all his strength."
Zhang Wu said with a smile: "What you said is true. Although Yun Guang is greedy, he is still an officer after all. He may not want to take my old Zhang's head to get promoted and make a fortune, so we have to guard against him!"
This gentleman was originally a member of the Juren family. He went to Beijing and offended a petty official from the Wucheng Army and Horses Department. As a result, he found a bunch of green leather and broke his legs. He fell seriously ill, spent all his money and took a caravan. The carriage and horses were returning home and passing through Chang'an County, but were robbed by him.
He talked with him and saw that he was talented, so he took him as a military advisor and made suggestions by his side.
However, this man seemed to be very resentful towards the Han Dynasty, and encouraged him to accumulate grain and grass, gather the surrounding bandits, and at the same time make friends with Chang'an Jiedu, waiting for the great changes in the world to sweep through the three auxiliaries and attack Shenjing.
The great changes in the world had not yet occurred, and the government troops had launched several campaigns. If he had not been an Orion hunter in Shandong and was familiar with the terrain of the mountains and forests, he would not have been able to withstand the tide of siege and suppression by the government troops.
Fan Yi's voice was slightly hoarse as he said: "Master, after this battle, if this team of Beijing troops are destroyed, why not take the opportunity to ask Yun Guang to come out, kidnap this person, and make a profit in Chang'an County. In ten months, a lot of money will be lost." When you become the leader, your reputation will be great, and then..."
"Sir, as you say, conquering the county seat is related to the lives and fortunes of all brothers. This matter should not be talked about lightly." Zhang Wu waved his hand and persuaded.
When Fan Yi heard this, his expression was silent.
The third and fourth masters have long been accustomed to it, and it is obvious that Fan Yi's rhetoric is no longer new.
Eight or nine hundred people attacked Chang'an County. At that time, the world was shaken, and the Beijing army in Shenjing City swept in. Didn't they turn into powder?
Wouldn't it be nice to drink wine from a big bowl, share money on a big scale, and have beautiful ladies waiting around?
As for Luo Xiong, he also shook his head secretly and said to himself, Mr. Fan suffered a big change in his early years and his temperament is extreme. Although he has many ideas and is knowledgeable, sometimes his ideas are inappropriate.
Fan Yi took in the expressions of the leaders of Cuihua Mountain, sighed in her heart, and thought,
"Nowadays, the officialdom of Chen Han is rotten. As long as he breaks through Chang'an County and coerces the people, he can sweep away the three assistants in an instant. At that time, he can lead his elite cavalry and go to Henan, Shandong and other places where victims are everywhere, with just a few sparks... …”
"They are housekeeper dogs." Listening to Zhang Wu and several leaders beginning to discuss how to divide the silks they robbed after sending troops, Fan Yi shook her head secretly in her heart, lowered her head to drink tea, and remained silent.
Next day, early morning
The mighty convoy, pulling three thousand borrowed Shu brocade horses, drove out of Chang'an County through the mist.
Jia Heng also followed up with five hundred soldiers selected from the Beijing camp, and this scene naturally fell in the eyes of the people sent by Yun Guang, who quickly reported it to Yun Guang.
But at half noon, Jia Heng was five miles away from the Yangji intersection, heading deep into Cuihua Mountain along a fork in the road.
Jia Heng said to Zhao Yi in a deep voice: "Zhao Baihu, do you think that with the martial arts of Qu Lang and Cai Quan, and three hundred people, they can stop the bandits?"
"Sir, Qu Baihu is known as a brave man among the Jinyi Guards. As for Brother Cai, he has a lot of hand crossbows in the car. Besides, there are people to support him. I don't think the problem is big." Zhao Yi thought for a while, said.
Jia Heng nodded and said, "Let's go into the mountain."
He only had these 500 soldiers. No matter whether he could make money from the bandits or not, he still needed to take the risk and wait for an opportunity to attack the bandits' lair.
As the saying goes, it’s up to people to plan things, but it’s up to God to make things happen.
