Anshan Town. Qinbei Pavilion
Once the soldiers let it go, they could no longer take it back. Originally they were just borrowing food, but the soldiers were willing to eat the food. Seeing that all the chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep were taken away, Anshan Town kept crying for a while.
Zhang Shuye tossed and turned after hearing this. Right and wrong were no longer important. They were already standing opposite the common people and had become soldiers and bandits who were even more disgusting than thieves.
"What is Sun Lei's purpose? Do you really want to force him to death?"
Zhang Shuye could only think about business to calm down his irritable mind. This battle was not going well. Sun Lei was prepared, and every step they made seemed to be guessed by Sun Lei.
After a sleepless night, Zhang Shuye walked out of the military camp with confused thoughts. At this moment, the smell of smoke and birds in the army came, but the smell of meat made Zhang Shuye feel nauseous. These are the treasures of the people.
But the soldiers didn't care about this. They ate and drank happily. Yesterday the thieves ate meat, and today they want it too. If being a soldier is not even as good as a thief, then why don't they become thieves.
"Zhixian Zhang, how are you?"
Dong Ping looked at Zhang Shuye proudly. He solved the problem of military rations in one night. The food he collected was enough to feed the army for several days.
"Director Dong, do you know what you did?"
Zhang Shuye looked at Dong Ping and asked.
"Protect the territory, kill the thieves, and be loyal to the country!"
Dong Ping said without thinking.
"With this kind of plundering from the people, isn't Dong Dujian afraid of backlash?"
When Zhang Shuye saw Dong Ping acting like this, he felt angry in his heart.
"Zhixian Zhang, what do I mean? I just want some food. Compared with the exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes every year, and the Xicheng Office, what do I mean?"
Dong Ping chuckled and said, let alone "borrowing" some food, what does it matter if he just looted Anshan Town?
The county magistrate who broke up the family, the magistrate who exterminated the family, and his military commander just asked for some food, which can be regarded as "extra-legal mercy".
These words left Zhang Shuye speechless for a moment. How many officials in the world are not greedy? If they just ask for some food and grass because of the war, it is really nothing. Even if they participate in the music themselves, they probably won't reach the hands of the emperor. Was beaten back.
Zhang Shuye felt powerless again. Even if he wanted to sweep away the world, who could he sweep away? Foreign races outside are watching with eager eyes, internal refugees are rebelling all over, the government and the public are full of corruption and treachery, this unhealthy trend is spreading all over the world, even if he is shattered to pieces, what can one person change?
The war drums sounded, and Cheng Wanli had already begun to gather his generals.
…
"Brother, the drums are beating in Anshan Town."
Xiao Jiasui cupped his fists at Sun Lei and said.
"I won't go there today. Let the military advisors decide what to do."
Sun Lei waved his hand. It was not suitable for him to show up today. Cheng Wanli wanted to eat him alive now.
"yes!"
Xiao Jiasui handed over and went down.
"You said you wouldn't hurt my father."
Cheng Wan'er looked at Sun Lei in panic. If Sun Lei didn't go, who could guarantee her father's safety?
"Don't worry, Miss Cheng. Since I have promised you, it means that the brothers in Liangshan have promised you. There is absolutely no problem with Magistrate Cheng's safety."
Sun Lei waved his hand and said, Cheng Wanli will definitely work hard if he goes out now, but that will be difficult to handle.
"Miss Cheng, I heard that Magistrate Cheng used to be a disciple of Tong Guan?"
Sun Lei looked at Cheng Waner and asked.
"Yes, my father used to be a tutor under Tong Xiang's sect. He was the private tutor for the children of the Tong family in the mansion."
Cheng Wan'er replied.
"Are Magistrate Cheng and Tong Guan still in close contact?"
Sun Lei continued to ask.
"I don't know, but every year on Tong Xiang's birthday, my father will send someone to deliver gifts."
Cheng Wan'er said that her father rarely told her about official matters, but every time he dealt with official matters, he always frowned.
"That's right!"
Sun Lei touched his chin and said.
"what's on your mind?"
Cheng Wan'er looked at Sun Lei and asked. Sun Lei must have a purpose in suddenly asking about the relationship between his father and Tong Guan.
"I'm thinking about how to settle Magistrate Cheng. I promise you not to hurt him, but you can't confine Magistrate Cheng to Liangshan, right? I can only win this battle but not lose. I'm afraid Magistrate Cheng won't be able to stay in Dongping Mansion in the future. ”
Sun Lei said.
Cheng Wan'er's face darkened. Only then did she realize the situation between her and her father. Her father's character would never allow him to become a thief.
"Forget it, don't think about it so much. Let's see what Magistrate Cheng plans to do then."
Sun Lei smiled and said, he planned to send someone to Tong Guan. After all, Tong Guan was the privy envoy, and it was Tong Guan who took the lead in recovering Yanyun. Cheng Wanli was good, but Cheng Wanli obviously couldn't be a detail.
Sun Lei came to a high slope in the military camp. In the distance, two armies were already beating drums and forming formations.
"Thieves, please call Sun Lei to come out to see me!"
Cheng Wanli held a sword and shouted at Xiao Jiasui and others in front of him. He glanced around for several times and couldn't find Sun Lei's shadow, which made him anxious and hateful.
"Zhifu Cheng, I don't need my brother to take action personally to deal with you and others!"
Xiao Jiasui said with a smile.
"Evil thief! Get out!"
Cheng Wanli pointed at the Liangshan army and roared, but there was still no trace of Sun Lei in the Liangshan army.
Cheng Wanli had no choice but to let Dong Ping and Zhang Qing go out to call for battle. On Liangshan's side, it was Yuan Lang and Dian who went to fight.
Both sides knew the basics. Dong Ping did not dare to be careless this time. He distributed his physical strength evenly and did not allow Yuan Lang to seize the flaw. However, Zhang Qing's side was playing harder and harder. It was obvious that Sui had adapted to his flying rocks and wanted to sneak attack more and more. The harder it is.
"Mr. Cheng, the thieves probably want to trap us to death in Anshan Town."
Zhang Shuye whispered to Cheng Wanli.
"I know, so I must destroy these thieves!"
Although Cheng Wanli was angry, he understood Sun Lei's purpose. But now that his daughter was in Sun Lei's hands, how could he leave?
After fighting for a while, Zhang Qing and Dong Ping retreated. They could not win, and there were many people on the opposite side. If they continued to be exhausted, they would be in danger.
After the fight, both sides stopped and retreated again.
"Although Cheng Wanli is furious, he has not yet been overwhelmed by his anger."
Sun Lei watched the two sides retreat, and Cheng Wanli led the troops back to Anshan Town before nodding.
"Brother, I'm afraid the other party won't be able to bear it tonight."
Wen Huanzhang said, after losing one battle after another, the strength of both sides has become obvious. In this case, there is no chance of winning in a frontal battle, and the only way is a surprise attack.
"Then you have to send someone to be the bait."
Sun Lei touched his chin and said, if you want to deceive the enemy, you have to spend a lot of money. It is quite dangerous to use this as bait.
Wen Huanzhang didn't speak. He couldn't make a decision on this choice, and he couldn't make a decision. If something happened, he couldn't explain it at all.
Everyone came back from victory, naturally smiling, but when they saw Sun Lei frowning and looking sad, they immediately stepped forward to ask, thinking that they didn't fight well enough.
"Everyone, sit down. You've done a good job, but now we have a very dangerous mission. I'm a little undecided."
Sun Lei waved to everyone.
"Brother, I'm willing to go!"
After hearing about the dangerous mission, Lin Chong, Pang Wanchun, Du Bo, Wang Jin, and Sun An all stood up and spoke.
