The Tiger Battalion suffered a disastrous defeat in the first battle, but miraculously there were not many casualties.

In fact, there were still some losses. More than a dozen carts were lost, a lot of livestock were lost, weapons and armor were lost, and even a few of the most important flags were lost... Fortunately, it was not the most important camp flag, otherwise Cheng Zhijie, as a general, lost

, you have to commit suicide to apologize.

The key point is, how many enemies there are, no one in the entire army, numbering about five hundred, can tell clearly.

Let’s talk about Li Kui.

After the weather cleared, his troops also set out from Xucheng and arrived at Shilipo in Yuncheng a little later than Cheng Zhijie.

Mu Hong and others were waiting for anyone to come, and they were worried, thinking that the transaction from Huitong Bank was going to be a scam.

Finally, Bai Sheng, who was acting as an errand boy, rushed down from the top of the slope, rolling and climbing all the way, gesturing to everyone and shouting: "Brothers, the fat sheep is here!"

Mu Hong grabbed Bai Sheng and pulled Bai Sheng down in front of him like a naughty kid on the street. A fierce light flashed in his eyes: "Hurry up and tell me!"

"Brother Mu Hong, what are you..."

Bai Sheng was not happy. We are all accomplices. How could you ask questions like you were an enemy? Mu Hong also felt something was inappropriate, loosened Bai Sheng's clothes, and said a little apologetically: "Brother Bai Sheng, don't blame me."

, Our brothers have not made any achievements since they defected to brother Chao Gai, so we are inevitably a little eager to make contributions. I am more than Meng Lang. Please don't be angry, brother Bai Sheng."

Bai Sheng was not a rebellious person. He smoothed his clothes and said, "There are hundreds of carts coming. Not counting the drivers, there are hundreds of people guarding them."

Coachman?

In the eyes of Mu Hong and others, they are no different from animals.

Even if Bai Sheng's kung fu is not very good, he can handle any number of ordinary coachmen with ease.

As for the guards?

The sum of these people must be more than the manpower of Huitong Bank. Moreover, Mu Hong, Zhang Heng, Li Jun, and a dozen or so martial arts players were present, and the bank's silver was already surnamed Chao.

As for why they wanted to defect to Chao Gai but never thought of standing on their own feet?

Although Mu Qing, the strong man in Jiangzhou, is dead, Mu Hong is the head of the family; brothers Zhang Heng and Zhang Shun; and brothers Li Jun and Li Li. These people all have their own power and territory. We really want them to work together.

Lishantou has a bad reputation, and it doesn't have much reputation in the world. Secondly, they don't obey anyone.

No one is suitable to take the lead.

But apart from Lishantou, they did not have enough strength in their hands and could easily be defeated by the government one by one.

This is also the reason why they fled from Jiangzhou to Jeju.

As for Chao Gai, they were not convinced at first, but after they got to know him, they suddenly felt that Chao Gai was a good person. He had a better reputation in person than in the outside world, and it would not be an exaggeration to describe him as righteous.

In addition, Chao Gai's martial arts skills are better than others, he has a good reputation and high martial arts skills, so there is no reason why he should not be the eldest brother.

Liu Tang had no objection to discussing the details of the robbery. He was a simple-minded and impulsive person. He was thinking about how to attract attention when it came to robbery. But the problem was that no one else could think of any solution he could think of.

If he could think of a solution that others could think of, he might be blinded.

Therefore, Liu Tang was very talkative and kept nodding. Wu Yong stood beside him and was secretly anxious. He thought to himself: "You represent Brother Chao. Who do you think you are if you keep nodding your head?"

As for Bai Sheng, he was naturally filtered by Wu Yong. This guy only had a reputation as a scoundrel in Yuncheng. Do you still expect anyone to listen to his words?

Inadvertently, Wu Yong found that he had an inexplicable sense of responsibility in his heart. He needed to give advice to brother Chao Gai. At least the credit could not be overtaken by these gangsters from Jiangzhou.

Wu Yong coughed and said softly: "Everyone, can you listen to a certain sentence?"

Mu Hong turned to look at Wu Yong. He knew him. He was a teacher in Dongxi Village and had a close relationship with Chao Gai. But his martial arts skills were average, and he couldn't read... He didn't know how to do it. It was hard to judge. But it seemed that Wu Yong was Chao Gai.

Gai's trusted personnel should not be easily offended. Thinking of this, Mu Hong nodded to Wu Yong and said with a smile: "Brother Wu Yong, we will all live and die from the same pot in the future. Why be polite? Don't worry about what you say. Even if you say it

It’s not Mu Hong’s fault, so there’s no need to worry about Mu’s face.”

light and spacious!

Although Wu Yong did not open his mouth to praise, he felt that Mu Hong still had some discernment. He bowed slightly and thanked Mu Hong for his open-mindedness. Then he started to speak: "Everyone, everyone knows the terrain of Shilipo. I don't know.

How are you going to start?"

"Rush up and surround them before talking."

Liu Tang realized at this time that he was also on Chao Gai's side and wanted to stand up for his eldest brother.

Mu Hong and others also felt the same way. Robbery was not unfamiliar to them. Although Mu Hong did not do it often, brothers Li Jun and Zhang Heng both made a living as boatmen and then made a fortune through robbery.

.

"There are many of us and there are few of them. There is no need to worry about the solution at this time. Just surround them." Li Jun said with great experience.

"That's what I mean too." Zhang Heng nodded in agreement.

Wu Yong chuckled, his hands were empty, it would have been nice to have a fan at this time. He was a scholar, and although he did not have much hope in the imperial examination, some of the habits of a scholar were still retained. Arty, even if he is a murderer.

We can't let Feng Yi get damaged when buying and selling. It's a pity that we came out in a hurry and lacked equipment.

"Everyone, Shilipo is a unique landform in Yuncheng. This place was originally a mound. Because the river overflowed its embankments, Liangshan Lake became a flood discharge place for the river. Yuncheng lost the official road connecting Xucheng and Dingtao and other places. This

Then corvées were mobilized to level the mound and leave a slope. This place is seven miles uphill and three miles downhill."

When Wu Yong said this, he stepped on the ground hard and said: "The place we are standing on is downhill. Have you ever thought about it, since going uphill is easy and going downhill is fast, why don't we just wait for work?"

"this……"

Mu Hong then took a closer look at the pretty boy in front of him. It seemed that it was not simple. After meeting Li Kui, Mu Hong's sense of scholars had changed greatly. He had some disgust and some resentment, but it was strange to say that he was not interested in the fair face.

The favorability of the scholar has greatly increased. If a scholar like Wu Yong had been noisy in front of him before, he would have become impatient long ago. He would scold him at best, and get violent at worst.

Mu Hong was able to hear some truth at this time and said to the others: "What do you guys think? I think what Mr. Wu said is very reasonable."

These words were tantamount to firm support for Wu Yong.

This made Wu Yong's affection for Mu Hong greatly increase. Before these people came to Dongxi Village, Wu Yong didn't like seeing these gangsters. Unexpectedly, Mu Hong and others were also sensible people who knew the importance of things, which made Wu Yong greatly

surprise.

Others have no opinion.

Since we agree, let's wait for Mu Hong, the one who calls the shots, to make a decision.

However, Bai Sheng, who was looking around, suddenly froze, and said, "Everyone, look, isn't that Brother Chao Gai?" Bai Sheng is known for his sharp eyesight.

Chao Gai is back?

Everyone took a closer look and saw that it was really Chao Gai, with someone else on his back.

They immediately greeted him, and when they saw Gongsun Sheng's face as golden as paper, everyone couldn't help but worry: "What's wrong with Mr. Gongsun?"

"Where is the injury? Why can't I see the injury?"

"Is it an internal injury?"

Gongsun Sheng lay on Chao Gai's shoulder, patted Chao Gai's shoulder gently and said: "Brother Chao Gai, please let me down, it won't be in the way."

Can he say that he just had a sprained foot before?

He jumped too high and pretended to be too involved. When he landed, he didn't even notice a stone on the ground. He fell to the ground without noticing. Fortunately, the officers and soldiers fled in all directions, and no one was watching him. Wait until

When Chao Gai arrived, he found a car and got on the car. In this way, he not only maintained his reputation, but also did not need to be independent and waste his energy.

As for Chao Gai carrying him on his back for so long, he was really grateful.

Chao Gai also knew that Gongsun Sheng was not serious. After putting Gongsun Sheng down, he waved his big hand to everyone and said: "We have won a great victory. The officers and soldiers have been defeated by Mr. Gongsun, and countless materials and weapons have been seized."

Mu Hong and others immediately became solemn to Gongsun Sheng. Compared with them, such achievements were like ants in the sky and on earth.

"Sir is truly a god!"

"It is truly a blessing for us to have husband to help us."

"Congratulations to Mr. Gongsun!"

Gongsun Sheng waved his hand, supported Bai Sheng who wanted to move forward, and said to everyone: "Brothers, can the fat sheep come?"

"On the other side of the slope." Bai Shengyao pointed to the other side of the ten-mile slope, but they were at this end and the convoy was at the other end, so they couldn't see it yet.

The waiting fat sheep finally arrived, which made Chao Gai feel relieved.

Gongsun Sheng defeated the officers and soldiers alone, but if the government strictly investigates, they may not be able to escape. After all, Gongsun Sheng frequently visited Dongxi Village before. As long as he investigates carefully, the government will inevitably find clues.

This sale is the last big deal before going to the cottage. If it is successful, building a cottage and recruiting people will not worry about lack of money and food in a short time.

Now that Gongsun Sheng is here, Mu Hong and others only need to ask him for advice.

Gongsun Sheng came with great achievements, and his prestige was naturally not comparable to that of Wu Yong.

He mused: "I have also explored the poor road in Shilipo. You don't need to go to too much trouble. Just wait for it to fall into the urn!"

"What you said is absolutely true, and we will accept it."

It’s hard for Wu Yong to tell him directly. He also planned this way. These gangsters actually had to vote just now before they could agree. Why did Gongsun Sheng come and just say a word, and these gangsters almost knelt on the ground?

This demon sings a hymn, why is the gap between people so big?

He is not convinced!

It's useless not to accept it.

The problem is that Chao Gai also takes Gongsun Sheng as his leader and makes suggestions, but none of them are very good. It is better to believe in smart people than to believe in your own results.

Only they unintentionally hurt the heart of a companion.

As for Li Kui, the convoy was already moving slowly. It actually took two days to walk from Xucheng to Yuncheng. Fortunately, shopkeeper Zuo, who was frightened along the way, could finally breathe a sigh of relief. They could reach Yuncheng County before evening.

Once you enter the city, at least you no longer have to worry about safety.

But the ten-mile slope in front of him made him frown slightly, as if he had a bad feeling coming over him.

Li Kui called the guide and after questioning, decided to send a spy out.

"Master, let me go!"
Chapter completed!
