Chapter 136 It's up to people to make things happen, and things to happen in the sky

One night without words, the next day

Jia Heng went to find Huang Tai, and in the morning, under his recommendation, he negotiated with the silk shop in the county town about borrowing silk from his inventory, but he declined.

And all of this naturally fell into the eyes of the tooth general named Chen Cheng sent by Yunguang, and quickly reported it to Yunguang.

Yun Guang couldn't figure it out for a while, and his heart became more and more irritable.

After asking four or five families back and forth like this, I finally got a letter from a cloth shop with the signboard of "Mingyue Chanjuan", and lent it [-] bolts of silk.

Jia Heng was startled, and showed Jin Yiwei's badge, and after careful questioning, he was speechless for a while.

Well, it's not someone else, it's actually the property of Princess Jinyang.

Huang Tai followed Jia Heng out of the cloth shop, and said: "My lord, this cloth shop has a mysterious background. If something goes wrong, I'm afraid we won't be able to afford it."

This is to remind Jia Heng that the account of this family is not good.

"It's okay, we're just borrowing it temporarily, and we'll return it later." Jia Heng nodded, and for a moment, he also thought of His Highness Jinyang who had a big heart.

Huang Tai said in a low voice: "Thinking about it, that person has already started to have doubts."

Jia Heng said: "Find an opportunity to let him know, don't be too deliberate, let them guess it by themselves."

The more you draw your own conclusions, the more convinced you are.

Huang Tai nodded, understanding.

Jia Heng said: "You look for a smart person who knows mountain roads, and you need to lead the way tomorrow."

After that, the two of them went back to the barracks and selected elite soldiers.

One light and one dark, but Jia Heng's movement was naturally noticed by Yun Guang, a local snake.

In the afternoon, Yunfu

Yun Guang, who was having a meal under the service of his concubine, heard Chen Cheng finish what Jia Heng had done in the morning, confusion appeared on the scarred face, and he said, "What are they going around borrowing silk and silk for?"

Chen Cheng said: "My lord, I think there must be tricks in my humble position."

"What the hell do you need to say? I don't know they have tricks!" Yun Guang cursed angrily, frowning in thought.

At this moment, Jiang Jie, the general who ran from the outside, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, I got it."

"What did you find out?" Yun Guang asked expectantly.

Yun Guang was not idle in the morning, so he took Jiang Jie to Cai Quan's army to inquire about news.

Not long after Cai Quan was promoted to deputy thousand households, there were several hundred households under him who were not from the old department, and one of them was quite dissatisfied with Cai Quan.

"My lord, what do you think that Commander Jia is doing?" Jiang Jie said with a smile, his face darkened and his cheeks somewhat sharp.

A ferocious look appeared on Yun Guang's face, and he said, "Fart off, I don't have time to listen to you!"

Jiang Jie smiled sarcastically, and said: "My lord, what kind of trick does this Commander Jia want to use to lure the soldiers? I heard that he has allocated two routes, and he is going to escort two hundred old and weak, and escort three thousand pieces of silk from Yangzhou. Pass the intersection, and then lay in ambush along the other way, ready to wait for the rabbit."

Chen Cheng, the dentist at the side, smiled and said: "This is too whimsical."

Hearing the words, Yun Guang waved his hands, and said with a sneer, "This is really not whimsical. Three thousand bolts of silk are worth tens of thousands of taels. Zhang Wu of Cuihua Mountain may not be tempted. If he doesn't notice for a while, he may really get it." hand."

"Didn't they just absorb another group of poles? Now there are six to seven hundred people in total. If they all come out, they may not be incapable of fighting." Chen Cheng said with a frown.

These two tooth generals are Yunguang's confidantes, and they helped to contact the bandits in Cuihua Mountain.

"How can they all come out?" Yun Guang said in a cold voice, "Zhang Dayan can't even believe this official. He said that there are six to seven hundred people. Damn, the ordnance he bought in batches is almost enough for eight or nine hundred people. After this stubble, we must not allow this guy to grow up."

With nearly a thousand soldiers, this can break Chang'an County. He just made some money, but he didn't want to rebel!

"My lord, what should we do now?" Chen Cheng asked.

"You send a letter to Zhang Big Eye yourself, let him follow his plan, and send as many soldiers as possible, except for Jia Heng, I told him to be smart!" Yun Guang said with a sneer, thinking: "Even if the imperial court sends Jin Yiwei to investigate in the future, it will not I can't find any problems, but I can only say that Jia Heng's child, pretending to be smart, failed to lure soldiers, but was seen through and killed by the bandits, killed and killed, laughing for others!"

This is simply a seamless plan to kill with a borrowed knife.

Chen Cheng took the order and went.

……

……

The night is blurred, the moon shines brightly, the cold wind blows the woods in the mountains, Cuihua Mountain is shaded by dense hazel trees, surrounded by gurgling streams.

Contrary to Jia Heng's idea, Zhang Wu's gang of bandits in Cuihua Mountain did not build their lair in the easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack halfway up the mountain, because firstly, the amount of work involved was too large, and secondly, if the location was determined, they would be surrounded instead.

Therefore, on the leveled land in the valley, stockades and crenels were built.

In the gathering hall, on a tiger-skin chair, sat a fat man. Zhang Wu was wearing an Orion bunt shirt. He had a burly figure, a dark complexion, eyes like copper bells, and a short beard under his jaw.

Sitting in the first place was a white-clothed scholar named Fan Yi, with a thin face and fair skin, with a long beard under his chin, and a dignified demeanor. He held a teacup in his hand, bowed his head, and sipped it. A crutch was placed beside him. It is obvious that the legs and feet are very inconvenient.

Zhang Wu handed the letter to Luo Xiong, the second in command, and said with a smile, "The Beijing camp is advancing, Master Jiedu is more anxious than me, the king of the mountain."

The third and fourth masters of Cuihua Mountain, who showed their breasts and exposed their breasts and hugged the women for drinking and having fun, laughed loudly.

"The head of the family is worried that we won't give him money!" The third head of Cuihua Mountain laughed.

Chen Cheng, the tooth general below, had an ugly expression, not anger, but fear.

He followed Cuihua Mountain's eyeliner in Chang'an County all the way, and covered his eyes with black cloth strips all the way, lest he be recognized on his way.

As Yun Guang said, Zhang Wu was not at ease with the officers and soldiers at all.

"Okay, let the envoy go down to rest first, and let people treat you nicely." Zhang Wu waved his hand and said with a smile.

It was night now, and it was obvious that he couldn't go back and return to his command.

Chen Cheng said: "I don't know if the head of the family will do it tomorrow?"

"Presumptuous!" Luo Xiong, the second in charge sitting beside him, sneered with his thin lips under his hooked nose, "Should we make a move, do we need to speak to you?"

Fear appeared on Chen Cheng's face, and he dared not respond.

Zhang Wu waved his hands with a smile, and said, "Brother Luo Xian, you don't have to."

This Luo Xiong just brought more than 100 people to vote. He respected his outstanding martial arts and gave him the second place.

Zhang Wu waved his hand to signal his subordinates to take Chen Cheng down, Fang put away the letter, looked at Fan Yi with piercing eyes, and said, "Sir, what do you think Yun Guang sent this letter?"

Fan Yi put down the teacup, and said calmly, "It's just killing people with a borrowed knife. It seems that Commander Jia offended Master Yun, so he wanted to use it. However, the master has to guard against this Yunguang, so he can't move all over the place."

Zhang Wu said with a smile: "What Mr. said is reasonable. Although Yun Guang is greedy, he is still an officer. He may not want to take my old Zhang's head to promote him and make him rich. We must guard against him!"

This gentleman was originally from Juren, and when he went to Beijing, he offended a small official from Wucheng Bingma Division. As a result, he found a pile of green skins and broke his leg. He fell seriously ill and spent all his money on a caravan. The chariots and horses returned home and passed through Chang'an County, where they were robbed by him.

He talked with him, saw his talent, and cited him as a military adviser, making suggestions by his side.

It's just that this person seems to be very resentful towards the Han court, and urged him to accumulate food and grass, gather the thieves around him, and at the same time make friends with Chang'an Jiedu, waiting for the world to change, sweep Sanfu, and attack Shenjing.

The great changes in the world have not been seen, and the officers and soldiers have raided several times. If he hadn't been a hunter in Shandong and was familiar with the terrain of the mountains and forests, he really couldn't stop the tide of the officers and soldiers' encirclement and suppression.

Fan Yi's voice was a little hoarse, and she said: "Master, after this battle, if the Beijing camp is wiped out, why not take this opportunity to ask Yunguang to come out, hold this person hostage, and make money in Chang'an County. You can become famous when you are in charge, then..."

"Sir, the breach of the county seat is related to the lives and wealth of the brothers, and this matter should not be taken lightly." Zhang Wu waved his hand and persuaded.

When Fan Yi heard this, her face was silent.

The third master and the fourth master have long been familiar with it, and it is obvious that Fan Yi's rhetoric is not new.

Eighty-nine hundred people attacked Chang'an County. At that time, the world was shaken, and the Jingying army in Shenjing City swept in. Didn't they turn into powder?

Wouldn't it be nice to drink in a big bowl now, share the money with a big scale, and have Meijiao Niang wait around?

As for Luo Xiong, he also shook his head secretly, thinking, Mr. Fan suffered a big change in his early years, and his temperament was extreme.

Fan Yi took in the expressions of the heads of Cuihua Mountain, sighed in her heart, and thought,

"In today's Chen Han, the officialdom is rotten. As long as Chang'an County is broken and the people are ensnared, Sanfu can be swept away in an instant. At that time, with the best cavalry, it only takes a little spark to go to Henan, Shandong and other places where disaster victims are everywhere... ..."

"They are the dogs that guard the household." Hearing that Zhang Wu and several leaders had already started discussing how to divide the plunder of silk and silk after the dispatch of troops, Fan Yi secretly shook her head, bowed her head to drink tea, and remained silent.

the next day, early morning

The mighty convoy, pulling [-] borrowed Shu brocades, drove out of Chang'an County through the dark mist.

Jia Heng also followed up with five hundred soldiers selected from the Beijing camp, and this scene fell into the eyes of the people sent by Yunguang, and they quickly reported back to Yunguang.

But at noon, Jia Heng walked towards the depths of Cuihua Mountain along a fork road, five miles away from the intersection of Yangji Road.

Jia Heng turned to Zhao Yi who was on the side, and said in a deep voice: "Zhao Baihu, do you think Qu Lang and Cai Quan's martial arts and 300 people can stop the bandits?"

"My lord, Qu Baihu is known for being brave in the Jinyiwei. As for that brother Cai, he brought a lot of hand crossbows in the car, and there are still people to support him. I think it's not a big problem." Zhao Yi thought for a while, Said.

Jia Heng nodded and said, "Let's go into the mountain."

He only has these five hundred pawns, no matter whether he can make money or not, he needs to take a risk and wait for the opportunity to go straight to the bandit's lair.

Still the same sentence, it is up to people to plan and make things up to God.
