"Trail?"

Song Jiang looked at Zhu Long. Qinbei Pavilion

"Brother, although there is only one main road going up the mountain, there are also small roads in the dense forests between the mountains. Although a large group of people cannot go up the mountain immediately, a small group of people can still go up."

Zhu Hu said.

"How do the team deal with Sun Lei?"

Wang Ying said, there are many soldiers and horses on the opposite side, and it is impossible to deal with them without a large group of people.

"You can't say that. You can only walk in small groups at a time. Let's walk slowly. We can always go up the mountain."

Song Jiang doesn't care about the small road, and the long stream of water can also converge into a deep pool.

"If Sun Lei had sent people up the mountain, Zhujiazhuang would have surrendered long ago."

Song Jiang looked at Zhu Long and said, this is the most troublesome right now. The Zhu family has been defeated, and now Zhuangzi may not pay attention to Zhu Long and others.

"Don't worry, brother, my Zhu family is quite prestigious in the village, and all the villagers listen to my Zhu family."

Zhu Long said.

"In that case, it's all up to Brother Zhulong. Brothers Wang Ying and Zheng Tianshou will lead people to follow Brother Zhulong up the mountain."

Song Jiang nodded and looked at a few people and said.

On Dulong Mountain, Hu Sanniang organized farmers to slaughter cattle and sheep and prepare food as soon as they returned to Hujiazhuang. Li Ying on the other side did the same.

"Master Hu, I heard that your three villages on Dulong Mountain have tens of millions of stones in food reserves. Is this true?"

Xiao Jiasui looked at Hu Cheng and asked, "There are countless cultivated lands in the Song Dynasty. There are more than 700 million acres registered by the imperial court. The yields of rice in the south and wheat in the north vary from 200 to 400 kilograms per mu." On balance, the yield per mu is nearly 300 kilograms, which is nearly 200 billion kilograms in one season. One stone is 120 kilograms, and the grain output in one season is nearly 1.7 billion kilograms. A Dulong Mountain can actually store tens of millions of kilograms of grain.

"Commander Xiao, how dare you deceive me? I am not bragging. I have countless grains in Dulong Mountain. Military counselor, please see, there is flat land under the mountain, and there are rivers and canals next to it. They are all good fields. "

"But none of these lands have been registered. They were all reclaimed by our Dulongshan Sanzhuang over the years. In the early years, they were all wasteland."

"Nowadays, we farm twice a year and produce a lot of food. Later, we continued to cultivate the land. If the land was not fully cultivated, we rented it to neighboring villages..."

"Later, the government wanted to register these fields and collect taxes per acre. Naturally, we and the other three villages were unwilling, so the three villages joined forces to fight against it."

Hu Cheng opened his mouth and explained.

"So tens of millions of stones are actually years of food storage."

Xiao Jiasui made some calculations and said, even if there is no tax on the fields at the foot of the mountain, so much food cannot be stored in one or two years, and it should be hoarded for many years.

"Yes, each of our three villages has huge granaries for storing grain. Owner Li once said that when the war breaks out in the north, the price of grain will skyrocket, and you can make a lot of money by selling it."

Du Xing said.

"Master Li does have a good eye for business!"

Xiao Jiasui asked with squinted eyes. Li Ying could actually tell that war was about to start in the north and stock up on food in advance.

"The owner is really interested in doing business."

Du Xing nodded and said, this is what Li Ying asked him to say. After seeing the horror of Liangshan, Li Ying knew that he must make it clear that Lijiazhuang had no ambitions.

"This is quite rare."

Xiao Jiasui smiled and said, a landowner with martial arts skills like Li Ying would like to make friends with heroes and practice ordnance, but Li Ying likes to do business, like a merchant.

The doors of Zhujiazhuang were still closed at this time. After the villagers went out for the war, only women, children and the elderly were left in the village.

"Open the door on the farm, I am Hu Cheng!"

Hu Cheng stepped forward and shouted to Zhujiazhuang.

"Master Hu, we cannot open the door if the owner is not here!"

There were crowds of people on the city wall, and finally they looked at Hu Cheng and shouted.

"I wish Chaofeng is dead, all the villagers have surrendered to the heroes of Liangshan, and the government has been defeated. Don't be stubborn and open the door quickly. The heroes of Liangshan will not harm the people!"

Hu Cheng shouted towards the city wall.

After hearing that Zhu Chaofeng was dead, the army had been defeated, all the villagers had surrendered, and everyone on the city wall was in chaos, not knowing what to do.

"Don't listen to their nonsense, I wish the dragon is here!"

Zhu Long's shout rang out, and Zhu Long was leading a group of people out of the dense forest nearby.

"It's the young owner!"

On the city wall of Zhujiazhuang, the villagers were all pleasantly surprised when they saw Zhu Long.

"It's Zhulong!"

Hu Cheng and Du Xing's expressions changed. Zhu Long's appearance was beyond their expectations. With Zhu Long here, Zhujiazhuang would not be so easy to win.

"Kill Zhu Long with me!"

Hu Cheng and Du Xing called on their subordinate Zhuang Ke to kill Zhu Long. At this moment, Zhu Long only had a hundred people around him.

Zhu Long did not dare to resist, so he turned around and led the people to the back of Zhujiazhuang.

"Military advisor, how about I wait and take action?"

Hu Cheng looked at Xiao Jiasui and asked. Hu Cheng and Du Xing were average in martial arts, and it looked like they couldn't take down Zhu Long who was running away.

"No, if Zhulong dares to come up the mountain, he must have a way to enter the village."

Xiao Jiasui shook his head and said, Zhujiazhuang has three layers of walls made of stubborn stones, and there is a suspension bridge outside. There are doors at the front and back. Zhu Long obviously wanted to enter through the back door when he ran away.

Soon Hu Cheng and Du Xing came back with their people.

"Commander Xiao, then Zhu Long ran into the village."

Du Xing quickly reported to Xiao Jiasui that this sudden change made the originally simple matter become troublesome.

"Both of you, you didn't contribute in the previous battle. I'm afraid the attack on Zhujiazhuang will cost both of you this time."

Xiao Jiasui looked at Hu Cheng and Du Xing and said.

"Commander Xiao!"

Hu Cheng and Du Xing didn't expect Xiao Jiasui to say that, and immediately looked panicked. Although their two villages had some troops, Zhujiazhuang City was high and deep, and it would take a bloody battle to win it.

"I'll leave this place to you two!"

Xiao Jiasui didn't give Hu Cheng and Du Xing a chance to talk, and led them directly down the mountain.

"What should we do?"

Hu Cheng looked at Du Xing at a loss.

"How did I know? I'll go back and report it to the village owner first!"

Du Xing is just Li Ying's servant. How dare he make such a big deal privately? He must go back and ask Li Ying first.

Hu Cheng had no choice but to rush to Hujiazhuang.

Lijiazhuang.

"What did you say? Zhulong has entered Zhujiazhuang!"

Li Ying, who was instructing the villagers to slaughter cattle and sheep, changed his face greatly. He looked at Zhujiazhuang in disbelief. His originally happy mood suddenly cooled down.

"Master, what should we do? Are we really going to attack Zhujiazhuang?"

Du Xing looked at Li Ying and asked.

"What if I don't fight?"

Li Ying gritted his teeth and said, thinking that the incident would be over soon, but Song Jiang suddenly showed up and caused trouble again. Now Li Ying really wants to scold Song Jiang's eighteen generations of ancestors.

"Master, Zhujiazhuang is not easy to fight. We might as well go to Sun Yingxiong and ask them to help!"

Du Xing whispered to Li Ying that he had seen with his own eyes the power of Liangshan's army. Anshan Town's 12,000-strong army could be defeated in one battle. What is the empty Zhujiazhuang now?

"Song Jiang's army is at the bottom of the mountain, how could Sun Lei come to help us!"

Li Ying waved his hand and said, Sun Lei and Song Jiang are now confronting each other at the foot of the mountain. It is impossible to control or care about matters on the mountain.

"I'm really going to attack Zhujiazhuang with the Hu family!"

Du Xing felt a little unsure. Both Lijiazhuang and Hujiazhuang were villagers. It would not be easy to attack Zhujiazhuang.
