Chapter 1598 Must be rescued
“Go up the mountain and snatch back our food, no, our money!”
Quan Widow gave an order, and the seven hundred people were divided into three teams and one team. Stay at the foot of the mountain while the other two teams advance alternately.
This shows that they have got rid of the initial messy refugee state.
The Songshan sect reacted quickly. When the team had just climbed less than a mile of the mountain road, more than 20 Songshan sect disciples appeared in the forest on both sides of the mountain road. Their figures were hidden and difficult to see. Discover.
They all held sharp swords and wore armor - this was an act of rebellion in peacetime. They were allowed to hold swords, but they were not allowed to hide their armor.
As soon as they appeared, they immediately threw rocks downwards without saying a word!
The stone was about the size of a human head and was thrown directly from the mountain path dozens of meters high.
Fortunately, according to the marching regulations, a small number of outposts must be released in front.
Now it was these sentries who saved the lives of the entire army. They discovered the falling stone in time and immediately sounded a rapid whistle to warn the rear.
"Spread out and retreat!" Upon seeing this, Widow Quan immediately understood that the disadvantage was too great.
No wonder the people in these sects are so arrogant and condescending, dozens of people can easily defeat thousands of elites!
They practice martial arts and are so powerful that they can throw stones for an hour!
Even though she was decisive and the team dispersed in time, there were still seven or eight people who couldn't escape in time and were smashed into pieces. It was terrible!
This was the result of her timely retreat. If she had rushed forward, only a few dozen of these hundreds of people would be intact.
Seeing how embarrassed they were above, arrogant laughter could be heard from afar.
“I thought they were very capable, just like this?”
“Haha, it turns out that the sorcery they used is nothing special, and they are also afraid of stones!”
“ Their magic can only work at a nearby place. We are at a high place and they can’t reach it!”
Widow Quan was furious, but there was nothing she could do.
The advantage of being condescending is too great. In the era of cold weapons, a young man who has never been trained can stone a veteran who has been on the battlefield for a long time.
So before attacking the city, we should try our best to make ladders and earth mountains to level the gap.
But now that the other party is on the mountain, how can they make a ladder?
This is simply impossible.
The key is that they are not officers and soldiers.
The official army can slowly encircle it. They have a lot of human resources and can find other masters to check and balance. They can't do this.
Retreating to the foot of the mountain, Quan Widow immediately begged Empress Xuannv: "Empress Xuannv, what should we do now?"
Zhao Han was also a little at a loss and couldn't think of anything after thinking for a while. Of course, If you give her more time, she can figure it out.
But it has been too long, and we don’t know how many people will die.
Those Songshan sect people will not just watch.
She now realizes the benefits of being a dog.
The same old trick is repeated: the watery dog eyes flick towards Lao Guo, and then he makes two "barking" sounds, rolls over, and reveals his difficulties.
Wen Rensheng's wisdom was certainly not comparable to hers, and he gave her four words: "Attack them, and you will save them."
"Attack them, you will save them." She did it directly porter.
When Widow Quan heard this, she immediately became enlightened and admired the wisdom of Empress Xuannu.
He is indeed a heavenly being.
I am at a loss, but the other party can think of the key in an instant.
This is comparable to the wisdom of Zhuge Liang of the Three Kingdoms.
“Bring me the disciple who was captured guarding the mountain...”
After another interrogation, they understood where the Songshan Sect's must-rescue place was - Mr. Huang in the county seat. Mr. Huang is a key node in a series of necessary aspects of their lives such as the sale of stolen goods, official protection, human trafficking... etc.
Without these things, their Songshan sect will quickly become a ruined temple and a poor mountain. How can they support four to five hundred servants and forty or fifty full-time martial arts training personnel?
You must know that one person who practices martial arts can eat as much as ten to a hundred ordinary soldiers!
They can’t stand it without income.
Widow Quan was overjoyed and immediately led her men and horses to the place where Mr. Huang must be rescued, a large manor outside the county town.
A chain reaction was quickly triggered.
Three days later, the Songshan faction, which received the message from Mr. Huang, had to abandon the mountain road where it had a huge advantage and sent more than 40 people down the mountain for rescue.
This can be considered an overwhelming success.
The ones still staying on the mountain are all old men, and there are only a few young masters.
.........
A Wubao Manor is surrounded by a three-meter-high earthen wall made of glutinous rice juice and triple earth. There are several earthen buildings in the middle, with a group of people standing on them, frowning.
"Dear elders and masters, you all have great martial arts skills, why don't you attack their captains? If this continues, Zhuangzi will be in danger." The manor housekeeper said with a sad face.
“Damn it, we can’t fight at close range, those people are all good at sorcery. Once we fight at close range, our martial arts will not be able to be used and we will become ordinary elites. A dozen soldiers can hack us to death.” An elder of the Songshan Sect angrily road.
“Yes, they untouchables can afford it, but we can’t afford it. Each of us has been practicing since childhood and has been practicing hard for twenty or thirty years!”
"Yes, they went back to recruit people, and they were ready in three months."
During the conversation, another round of siege came.
The young men shouted slogans, held up long ladders, and held bamboo spears and wooden shields, and surrounded the manor.
Quan Widow summoned more than 6,000 young men to besiege the manor.
The slogan is very simple. Food has been robbed by this manor. If you want your family to survive, break the fence!
Before the siege, he also sent a letter to the county, saying that this was a grudge between Jianghu and Jianghu.
Anyway, the county officials listened and did not send troops to suppress it.
If troops are sent to suppress it, regardless of whether there are so many soldiers and horses, as long as they are sent, it will be a rebellion, and they will have to report and suffer...
Anyway, the other party is not coming to fight now. Don't care about the county town. Everyone is a floating official and will leave as soon as three years are up.
As for the filial piety given by Mr. Huang, it is indeed a lot, but no matter how much it is, it is impossible to pay for the army's salary and food to fight the rebellion.
However, for the sake of money, they still sent a garrison of more than 200 people to go there to have a look, and finally reported a "rural fighting" assignment.
Master Huang was so angry that he had to send people up the mountain overnight to ask people from the Songshan faction to come and rescue him.
At the critical moment, it is still reliable to sit on the ground.
Although the floating officials will not create a vassal town, they don't care about it and leave as soon as they finish fishing.
People from the Songshan faction didn’t want to come either, but Mr. Huang threatened that if they didn’t come, next year’s dividends would be gone.
Kill Mr. Huang and replace him with another agent?
Leaving aside the fact that killing Mr. Huang, who has an official reputation, is no different from killing officials to rebel. If they really started this, who would dare to cooperate with them?
The nurses and tenant farmers in Zhuangzi are quite capable. After all, if Zhuangzi is broken, they will starve to death.
The housekeeper looked irritated.
Co-author My husband usually raises a bunch of dogs that are neither useful nor useful!
If I had known this, why not raise three hundred more nursing homes? Isn't it better than these people?
It’s cheap to raise, just raise another one after it dies.
