Chapter 28 Seize

After dealing with the night affairs, everyone went back to rest.

The next morning, the team set off again. Although all kinds of trivial matters emerged one after another along the way, there were no one as brave as a waste of money.

After more than ten days of marching, the team saw the continuous mountains.

After everyone entered the mountain, they were about to find a suitable place to settle down. After walking for a while, they heard someone shouting at him.

"Don't move forward any further, everyone."

Liu Chang saw a middle-aged man wearing a bundle of firewood on his back, dressed in rags and wrinkles shouting at him. So he stopped and asked the middle-aged man: "Why can't you move forward any further?"

The middle-aged man said kindly: "Oh, I'll let you know that there is a group of thieves entrenched in the critical area of ​​the mountains ahead. There are about twenty or thirty people, specializing in robbing passers-by. Although you have a large number of people, it is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If you go directly, it may not be better if you go there."

After hearing this, Liu Chang took out some money from his body and put it in the middle-aged man's hands and said thankfully: "Thank you for your kindness, you can take this money first."

The middle-aged man wanted to do so and refused, "How can I take this? I hope the young master will take it back."

Liu Chang smiled and pushed the middle-aged man's hand back and said, "Brother-in-law, just accept it."

After the middle-aged man left with the money with joy, Liu Chang said to Zhao Xin: "I really want to come with whatever I want. I already have a ready-made copycat. It depends on how we get it."

Zhao Xin said directly: "They are not many and they always have to sleep at night. Even if there are people who are vigilant, it is probably only one or two. As long as we touch them in the dark, the matter will be solved in an instant."

Liu Chang retorted: "The mountain road at night is not easy to walk, don't fall down first."

Zhao Xin said: "We will try it tonight. If it doesn't work, we will remove it and find a way."

"Then give it a try."

That night, Liu Chang and others walked carefully in the mountains. Several people illuminated the flashlight and quietly walked up the mountains. At night, various subtle sounds were heard from time to time, and the mountain road was rugged and difficult to walk. The wind blew the leaves and made rustling sounds from time to time. Several people walked for several hours and finally walked to the gate of the village. Liu Chang looked carefully at the village but did not find anyone watching the night. Everyone carefully pushed open a wooden door that was completely unlocked. When they walked into the door, they saw several random wooden houses. Only snoring sounds were heard in the houses. Liu Chang said to everyone: "Do it."

Then, the people who followed him rushed into several rooms. After a while, Zhao Xin walked out and said to Liu Chang, "Young Master, you have all been solved."

"Okay, I'll inform you tomorrow morning and let the rest of you go up the mountain. Let's find a place to rest tonight."

Liu Chang asked them all to rest and walked around the village himself. The village did not use this place at all. They simply surrounded the fence and set up a door in the vicinity. There was also a large area of ​​land behind the fence. They reclaimed some places and planted millet, but they didn't grow well. It seems that it should be related to the climate this year. They also raised a few chickens free of charge. It seems that they are bandits, more like refugees who escaped into the mountains. I don't know if they will come out of the mountain to rob.

The next day, Liu Chang sent someone down to inform the large army at the foot of the mountain to come up the mountain. After all the people arrived, Liu Chang ordered everyone to demolish a few randomly built houses first, build tents on the flat ground, and plan various locations. Everyone busy building this cottage.

Liu Chang also brought a lot of tools, seeds, grain, salt and other things to the village by constantly waking up. Brand new axes and saws were piled up in the village. Everyone cut down a large number of trees from the nearby mountains and forests and began to build the place along the plan. Because of the sufficient food and complete tools, the village soon became a starting point.

After Liu Chang arranged all the affairs of the parcel, he said to Zhao Xin: "You build the parcel here first and build more defensive facilities. I see that there are a lot of open spaces here, so you can also organize people to carry out military farming. I will go back with Wang Ye first, and then let Wang Ye and Wang He come here to assist you. Here is a good construction. If things go wrong, this is the basis for us to get back up."

Zhao Xin said with a guarantee: "Don't worry, young master, I will definitely manage this place here. When the young master's uprising goes well at the beginning of next year, as long as the young master's uprising goes well, I will immediately take people to the vicinity of Baoding City to assist the young master."

Liu Chang patted Zhao Xin's shoulder with satisfaction and said, "Okay, let's work together, we will definitely take advantage of the situation."

After saying that, Liu Chang and Wang Ye walked down from the village.

In the forest, Liu Chang met the middle-aged man he had met before. The middle-aged man looked at Liu Chang in surprise and said, "Oh, I told you not to go to the mountains. Now there are only two people left, it's pitiful."

Liu Chang smiled and said to the man: "We can go there from now on, and that group of bandits have been wiped out by us."

The middle-aged man said in surprise: "Is this actually the case? The young master is really giving us a disaster. Please go to our village and we must treat you well."

Liu Chang said to the man kindly: "I won't go, I have something else to do. Next time I come here, if nothing happens, I will definitely visit your village."

After hearing what Liu Chang said, the middle-aged man gave Liu Chang a big gift: "Then I wish the young master a long life."

Liu Chang waved at the middle-aged man and said, "Take care, I'll leave first."

After saying that, the two of them drove forward on horseback.

After three months of running around, Liu Chang returned to the camp. As soon as Liu Chang entered the door, he saw Zhang Fei jogging over and continued, "Brother Liu, I have never seen you these days. I miss you very much. I should have made up my mind to go with you before."

Liu Chang asked Wang He on the side with a smile, "Did Yide finish all the wine?"

Wang He immediately replied: "As the young master expected, he had just finished the wine left by the young master for a month. He shouted all day long to chase you."

Zhang Fei smiled and said, "I mainly want to help Brother Liu. Besides, if I don't drink, I will climb out of my heart."

Liu Chang replied readily: "I'll let you drink enough today."

After hearing this, Zhang Fei laughed and said, "I knew Brother Liu would not treat me badly. We have agreed that I have to have a good drink today."
