,!
The thin-faced tenant noticed the expressions on the others' faces.
He spat on the ground and said, "Don't you all think what my father said is right?"
"Uncle is an elder and has experienced more things than us. His words should be trusted." A tenant said in a low voice.
After all, it is too ridiculous for the rebels to allocate land to poor people like them.
"You think so too?" The thin-faced tenant looked at the other people around him.
Some of the tenants nodded slightly, while others showed hesitation.
Although many tenants think Gou Shengdie's words are more credible, people still hope that good things will happen to them, so some people still hope that the rebels can really allocate farmland to them.
"Come on, since you all think what my father said is right, just pretend that I didn't say it." Seeing that no one was willing to believe him, the thin-faced tenant was disappointed and didn't want to say anything more to these people.
"No, if you tell me more about the rebels, I'd love to hear it." A tenant approached the thin-faced tenant.
The other tenants around him looked at him.
Even if they don't quite believe that the rebels will allocate their fields to them, for them, learning more about the rebels is just a way to pass the time.
"What are you doing? Why are you all gathering together? Let me guard the fort wall."
The voice of Cui Guang, the second young master of the Cui family, who was leaving, came from afar.
Cui Guang walked over and saw that his face was very ugly.
The tenants who were still gathered together dispersed in a hurry, picked up the various weapons that they had randomly thrown on the ground, and hurried to the bottom of the fort wall.
"Second Young Master, you are back." A Cui family servant came forward to greet Cui Guang.
Cui Guang asked with a stinky face: "How are the rebels outside?"
"Since the rebels camped outside our Xiaosongji, there has been no movement, and no rebel soldiers have been seen approaching the castle." Cui's servant said.
Cui Guang walked to the table next to the fort wall, raised his legs and stood up on the table. He held the wall with one hand and looked out at the rebel camp. He said, "You said what would happen if I let the rebels in?" How about it?"
The servants of the Cui family stood below and laughed with them, but did not dare to answer the question.
He knew in his heart that the second young master was angry after returning and was saying angry words. Naturally, he would not really think that the second young master would let the rebels enter the castle.
Cui Guang, who didn't wait for a response, turned his head to look at the servants of the Cui family standing at the table, and asked again: "Speak! What will happen if I let the rebels in?"
"The second young master was joking." Cui's servant said with a smile.
Cui Guang withdrew his gaze, looked outside again, and said: "I know that the small earth wall cannot stop the rebels outside, but I dare not let the rebels in. Who makes me the second young master of the Cui family! All wealth and honor depend on the Cui family."
The servants of the Cui family did not dare to speak, but just lowered their heads.
I knew that the second young master had been provoked by the eldest young master again and was complaining.
Outside Xiao Songji, inside the Tiger Flag camp, Xiao Wu held a pancake in one hand and stared at the map on the table.
"Are we just going to stay here in Xiaosongji and wait for the soldiers and horses of Shandong Beiwadusi?" Jia Shenwu asked, chewing the cake in his mouth.
Xiao Wu looked at the map and said: "This is a good place. It is also close to Caoxian County. The army can definitely take care of them while waiting for work. Moreover, the terrain east of Xiaosongji is gentle, which allows the army to spread out its formation."
After saying that, he took a bite of the pancake in his hand.
"What should we do with Xuanwuwei? We can't fight. Let them watch from the sidelines!" Jia Shenwu looked at Xiao Wu.
Hearing this, Xiao Wu smiled and said: "The main attack is still ours. Let Xuanwuwei fight and cooperate. If we really want to hand over the main attack to Xuanwuwei, can you rest assured?"
"Of course I'm worried." Jia Shenwu shook his head.
In an army that is used to the tiger-shaped flag, it feels uncomfortable to look at the soldiers and horses of a guard station like Xuanwu Guard. More importantly, the soldiers and horses of Xuanwu Guard are so weak that they can't even keep up with the march. It was the result of excluding the old, weak, sick and disabled people in Xuanwuwei.
Xiao Wu said: "The soldiers and horses of Shandong Beiwa Dusi have arrived in Caoxian County, not far from Xiao Songji. As long as the soldiers and horses of Shandong Beiwa Dusi are captured, it will be difficult to assemble an army in Shandong in a short time. The Malays invaded Henan."
"In fact, we can completely invade Caoxian County, and the army will enter Shandong, and take over the entire Shandong with overwhelming force, making the capital surrounded by our tiger-shaped flag." Jia Shenwu said this and licked his lips with the tip of his tongue.
On the map, there is only a thin line between Xiaosongji and Kaifeng. In reality, there is only one step between them. However, the two places belong to two different provinces.
The Tiger-Character Banner has been operating in the northwest for so many years, and finally stepped into the Central Plains. Many Tiger-Character Banner officers wanted to take this opportunity to sweep the world and capture the entire Ming Dynasty in one fell swoop.
Xiao Wu glanced at Jia Shenwu and said: "Shizheng's order is for us to annihilate the invading enemies from Shandong in Henan. If you dare to mess around, you should know what punishment you will receive if you disobey military orders."
"I just think that since the army has left the northwest, it is really uneconomical to only capture Henan. We can take advantage of the situation to capture more places." Jia Shenwu said what he thought.
Xiao Wu swallowed the last piece of cake in his hand, raised his hand and patted Jia Shenwu on the shoulder, saying: "Don't think about those messy things, obey the orders from above honestly, and we will have the opportunity to fight in the future."
"Okay, let's start with the Shandong Beiwa Dusi." Jia Shenwu pointed his finger at the location of Cao County on the map.
Xiao Wu straightened up and said to his guard: "Go and find the messenger."
The guard agreed and turned around to leave the tent.
After a short time, the guard returned to the tent with the messenger.
"Report to the camp commander, what are your orders?" As soon as the messenger entered the tent, he first saluted Xiao Wu and Jia Shenwu, and then asked Xiao Wu about his mission.
Xiao Wu said to him: "Go and tell the sentry team to send sentinels into Caoxian County to find out the specific location and marching route of Shandong soldiers and horses."
"Yes." The messenger turned and left the tent.
At this time, Jia Shenwu stood up from the table and said, "Would you like to go with someone from Xuanwuwei? Xuanwuwei should be more familiar with this area than us."
"The people of Xuanwu Guard have been stationed at the guard base for a long time. Do you think they are more familiar with us than our people?" Xiao Wu looked at him and asked.
After hearing this, Jia Shenwu rubbed his head and said: "You are right, Xuanwuwei really can't be counted on. If you want me to say that this matter is decisive, it is better to disband Xuanwuwei's troops and let them They go home and farm to avoid wasting money and food.”
The reason why Xuanwuwei was willing to follow Xiao Wu and others from Kaifeng Mansion to Xiaosongji was that, in addition to the Xuanwuwei commander and other former Xuanwuwei military attachés, the most important thing was that Xiao Wu gave them sufficient salary.
