Chapter 112: Too bad, withdrew money.
Chen Haizhang, who was working on the Jianxi construction site, suddenly received an urgent report from Beishan Village!
After Chen Haizhang heard this, he immediately put down the hoe in his hand and rushed to Su Ze who was surveying and mapping the river.
"Please help me carry the Chen family back to the mountain!"
Chen Haizhang was very dissatisfied with his father's decision. After the last fight, he held back his energy and wanted to defeat Changning Wei again.
But my father shamefully surrendered to Changning Guard!
When Chen Haizhang was building water conservancy projects in Jianxi, he almost didn't talk to the people in Changningwei, and he usually ate alone.
Su Ze put down the ruler in his hand, looked at Chen Haizhang and said,
"What's wrong with Mr. Chen?"
Chen Haizhang knelt down and said, "The Black Mountain bandits are down the mountain!"
The Black Mountain Bandits?
Su Ze once heard Lin Baihu say that there is a mountain in the southeast of Changningwei. The locals call it Heishan. The Black Mountain bandits should be a group of bandits entrenched in Heishan.
Fujian is mountainous and there are countless bandits. There are more than a dozen bands of bandits in Yanping Prefecture alone. Su Ze cannot remember these bandits at all.
Chen Haizhang said: "Last year, my cousin Chen Bofei captured the second boss of Heishan village and was sentenced to death by beheading by the county magistrate. Since then, this Black mountain bandit has had a blood feud with our Beishan family, the Chen family. This time, the Black mountain bandit came down from the mountain to attack Our Chen family is here!"
Su Ze didn't take it seriously. The Chen family in Beishan is not an ordinary small village. They can produce more than a hundred young men in a single fight, and ordinary bandits can't do anything to them.
Back then, they even dared to provoke military guards like Commander Ning Wei, and they were the strongest village nearby.
Nowadays, the southeastern coastal area has been an unstable place since ancient times, and almost every village has its own group training.
Whether it was a clan fight, a Japanese pirate attack, or a bandit robbery, a village that had no ability to protect itself would have been wiped out long ago.
The harsh living environment forced people to stay together for warmth. This is why clan power in Fujian and Guangzhou is still strong in modern times.
Chen Haizhang cried and cried: "We in Beishan Village were not originally afraid of these black bandits, but a few days ago these bandits got more than a dozen muskets from nowhere, and yesterday they defeated Sun Dianshi's Zhuangzi." Sun Dianshi
? Isn't it the classic history of the county government ceremony room?
It turned out that Sun Dianshi had several villages outside the city. The one near Beishan Village was the largest village of the Sun family. There were hundreds of tenant farmers in the village cultivating land for the Sun family.
Unexpectedly, a mere county government office occupied so much land. Su Ze thought of Xu Shisheng, who was called Xu Hu. It was because of this generation that the Xu family began to rise in the county government office, so Xu Shisheng was eager to make money. After a while, he was called a fox by Nanping County.
Compared with Xu Shisheng, Sun Dianshi, who seemed unknown in the county government, was the real predator in Nanping County.
Chen Haizhang said: "The Sun family has been officials for generations, and the Sun family's village still has dozens of healthy servants. Even if we carry the mountain, the Chen family would not dare to cause trouble to them." "But
this kind of village was attacked by the Black Mountain bandits yesterday. , the entire Zhuangzi was robbed, and the Black Mountain bandits even set fire to the Zhuangzi." "Did the Black Mountain bandits have muskets
before?"
Chen Haizhang shook his head and said, "This Black Mountain bandit used to be a hunter in the mountains. He also had some bows and arrows. I don’t know where they got the muskets from.”
Since Zhang Haihu fled to Nanyang, Changning Guards had no channels to purchase muskets, and Su Ze’s “Firearm Manufacturing” skill could not make muskets for the time being.
A dozen muskets? Su Ze became interested. Chang Ningwei happened to be training a musket team. Having more than a dozen muskets would be a huge improvement!
However, Su Ze continued to ask about the origins of this group of Black Mountain bandits. He continued to ask:
"Since they are hunters, why did they turn into bandits?"
Chen Haizhang also sighed and said, "The reason why the Black Mountain thieves turned into bandits was because of the Black Mountain bandits." A red sandalwood tree was found on the mountain."
"Red sandalwood?"
Chen Haizhang said: "These Black Mountain thieves were originally hunters on the Black Mountain. A few years ago, a century-old red sandalwood tree was found on the Black Mountain. After talking about it, I came over to check and determined that this red sandalwood tree was the best wood and said it was going to be presented as tribute to the emperor for building the palace." "What happened next?" "Later,
this
red sandalwood tree was chopped down in a thunderstorm, and the guarding eunuch He was angry, thinking that the hunters on the Black Mountain were not well guarded, and asked them to bear the loss of ten thousand taels of silver."
Su Ze was also speechless, the red sandalwood was struck by lightning, the hunters around the Black Mountain were unlucky, and the eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty were too unreasonable. .
Chen Haizhang said: "How can these hunters come up with ten thousand taels of silver? They simply elected one of the hunters, Xue Gao, as their leader and occupied the Black Mountain and became a bandit." "Won't the imperial court suppress it?" "Although the Black Mountain is not high,
it
is The mountain is steep and densely forested. At that time, the eunuch guarding Shibosi transferred the Yanping Guards to suppress the bandits. Before they entered the mountain, they were defeated by the Black Mountain bandits led by Xue Gao. After that, no one talked about suppressing the bandits anymore. "
" What bad deeds does this Black Mountain bandit have?"
"After Luocao, the Black Mountain Bandits not only attacked nearby villages, but also engaged in kidnapping business. I heard that they robbed many caravans and took many lives on their hands. This time they defeated Sun Dianshi's Zhuangzi. , and also massacred many people."
Su Ze understood that this was the story of a young boy who slayed dragons and eventually became an evil dragon.
Most bandits may have various difficulties before going up the mountain. They may just want to have enough to eat when they first become bandits.
But as they have been bandits for a long time, they have changed from resisters to perpetrators.
Therefore, those righteous bandits who can always insist on not intruding on the people are very valuable. Obviously, the Montenegrin bandits do not have such high moral sentiments.
In this case, annihilating the Black Mountain bandits can be regarded as eliminating harm for the people.
Chen Haizhang thought for a while, then gritted his teeth and said: "We from Beishan Village are willing to offer a hundred taels of silver! Please ask the Changning Guard to help in the battle!" In fact,
Su Ze was originally planning to persuade Lin Mojun to fight, but it turned out that the Black Mountain bandits were near the Changning Guard, waiting for him Sitting big will also threaten the safety of Changning Guard.
Secondly, it is also to discover problems from actual combat and use actual combat to test the results of the recent training of the Bird Gun Team.
Now that Beishan Chen is willing to pay, there is one more reason to fight.
Su Ze nodded and said: "I will ask Lin Baihu to send troops right away!"
Qingzhuang of Beishan Village in Xiuhe hurried back to the village, and Changning Guards also sounded the alarm. Lin Mojun gathered troops at the school ground to prepare for the battle with Heishan thief.
At this moment, on the official road not far from Beishan Village, the Black Mountain bandits were advancing towards Beishan Village.
The Black Mountain bandits who had plundered Sun Dian Shi Zhuangzi were already preparing to attack Beishan Village.
Xue Gao, the leader of the Black Mountain bandits, held a wine bottle in his hand and said to a young man wearing a red turban beside him:
"Shuai Luo Qu! When we break through Beishan Village and avenge my brother, I will officially seal him. You are the second in charge!"
This young man was holding a blunderbuss, with powder bags and lead bullet bags hanging on his body, and his face was serious.
The twenty gunmen behind him were also different from the Black Mountain bandits, and they marched in a very organized manner.
And Xue Gao, the leader of the Black Bandits, was drinking wine while riding a horse. The bandits under him were staggering around and marching playfully. They were still reminiscing about the pleasure of raping and plundering after breaking through Sunjiazhuang last night.
It took humans thousands of years to evolve from beasts into humans, but it only takes a short time to fall back into beasts.
When they first turned into bandits, the Black Mountain bandits still had some sense of morality and would not harm ordinary people even if they were robbing.
But over time, Xue Gao also discovered that the caravans of rich people with help and guards were difficult to rob, but the poor people were easy to rob.
In order to win people's hearts, Xue Gao allowed his subordinates to rape and plunder every time he went down the mountain to rob him.
At this time, Xue Gao looked at the young man wearing a red turban next to him, thinking about how to win over this tiger general. This Luo Qu commander was named Luo Erlang, and he had just escaped from Shanxi to Fujian.
He was the adopted son of Luo Fu, the leader of the Luo religion who had just been wiped out. After Luo Fu's uprising, he made him his commander-in-chief.
Luo Erlang has been fond of martial arts since he was a child. For the cause of Luo Jiao's rebellion, Luo Fu was sent to the Deer King to learn how to use bird guns. After seeing the power of the Deer King's bird gun team, Luo Erlang also formed a team. Bird gun team.
It's a pity that his status as a marshal quickly depreciated. After Luo Fu's incident, he quickly conferred the title of a bunch of marshals.
Many of these guardian marshals are local bandits or powerful men in Jiangxi, and Luo Fu defected with his team.
Each of these people had their own plans. Sometimes they encouraged Luo Fu to attack the provincial capital, sometimes they encouraged him to attack the county town, and some encouraged Luo Fu to march eastward to Fujian and join forces with King Lu to attack Zhejiang.
In short, these people messed up Luo Fu's mind. Half a month after the uprising, Luo Fu was busy getting concubines and marshals. When the officers and soldiers arrived, Luo Fu hurriedly fought, and naturally he was defeated in one battle. His head was cut off.
Luo Erlang, a rebel with a well-established background, was naturally on the court's wanted list. He led his men to break out of the encirclement of the army and rushed into the mountains at the junction of Zhejiang, Jiangxi and Fujian provinces.
Luo Erlang heard the news about King Lu's invasion of Fujian, and led his people southward, preparing to join the Japanese pirates.
On his way south, Luo Erlang happened to be recruited by the Black Mountain Bandits. Xue Gao promised that he would make him the second master if he robbed Beishan Village.
However, Luo Erlang also had his own thoughts. He planned to rob Beishan Village and destroy the Black Mountain bandits, and then go out to sea with supplies to find the Deer King.
He also heard that there was a sea guard named Changning Guard nearby. Luo Erlang planned to destroy this sea guard and seize their warships to go to sea.
After receiving the news from Su Ze, Lin Mojun immediately summoned the soldiers and the musketry team. She personally led the troops out of Changning Guard and sent scouts to disperse on the main road leading to Beishan Village.
Sure enough, the Black Mountain thieves who had destroyed Sunjiazhuang yesterday had eaten and drank enough, slept until three o'clock in the morning, and then led their men to kill Beishan Village.
Chen also organized all the young men to fight at the gate of Beishan Village.
Lin Mojun, on the other hand, did not directly fight with Chen, but instead lurked on the main road leading to Beishan Village.
Su Ze stood on the high slope, and Chen Haizhang stood behind him anxiously.
"I'm going to fight for the clan too!"
Su Ze shook his head and said, "The Changning Guards have already gone to battle, and there's not much more for you. You should stay here and watch."
This time is just to test Lin Mojun's training results during this period. when.
It just so happened that the Black Bandits also had blunderbuss, so it was a good time to experiment with the use of blunderbuss.
Su Ze did not go down to lead the troops, but regarded this battle as a practical exercise to test the advancement of Su Ze's military theory.
Xue Gao's team arrived in front of Beishan Village in a sparse manner. The Black Mountain bandits first threatened Chen, and then Luo Erlang's gun team killed them out.
Seeing Luo Erlang's loose team and the gunmen just fighting on their own, Su Ze felt even more relieved.
But when he heard the sound of bird cannons, Chen Haizhang shivered in fright. With his back to the mountain village and the sea, he naturally knew about bird cannons.
The Deer King's musketry team traveled across the sea. It is said that this magical weapon can hit the enemy dozens of steps away.
Seeing that there were indeed more than a dozen of the Black Mountain bandits holding such weapons, Chen Haizhang felt even more desperate. Now he was carrying the mountain village behind him!
Sure enough, just a few gunshots were heard, and several strong members of the Chen clan fell to the ground. Chen Haizhang recognized that several clan brothers were good fighters, and they were injured without even touching the face of the Black Mountain bandit.
Chen Haizhang looked at Su Ze in despair. It seemed that Beishan Village would not be able to escape the footsteps of Sunjiazhuang this time!
Su Ze already had an understanding of the Black Mountain Bandits' combat effectiveness, and felt that this battle was really nothing to watch.
These Black Mountain thieves don’t know how to use blunderbuss!
He dared not shoot until he was within thirty steps, and the hit rate was pitifully low. Only a few shots were hit by more than a dozen people!
If it were the Changning Guard's cannon team, this distance could defeat the Chen family in one fell swoop!
In addition to the insufficient hit rate, the level of training of this group of Black Mountain thieves was also pitifully low. The loading movements were irregular, there was no fire line at all, and there were blind spots on the flanks.
In addition to these gunmen, the rest of the Black Mountain bandits are even more terrible amateurs.
Su Ze also saw a few people holding bamboo poles waving flags and shouting from behind. Half of the hundreds of Black Mountain bandits were holding farm tools.
A mob, Su Ze could only think of four words. Putting these Black Mountain bandits in the game, they are at best mobs that give you experience. Watching the battle is simply a waste of your time.
Such an enemy is probably not Lin Mojun's opponent in one round. If he can't defeat them, Su Ze won't be able to think about the cause of rebellion.
Su Ze only felt that his interest was waning. It seemed that today's plan had failed. There was no useful experience to be gained against this kind of enemy.
In this case, it is better to gain full experience in the imperial examination as soon as possible.
Su Ze directly found a tree, sat under the tree, took out a copy of "Spring and Autumn", and calmly read the book.
Seeing Su Ze like this, Chen Haizhang was even more anxious to cry.
"Ms. Su! Isn't Lin Baihu taking action yet? Do you want to sit back and watch the mountain village be destroyed?"
Su Ze was reading and the second round of bird gunfire at the foot of the mountain had just stopped.
At this time, Beishan Village had completely collapsed, and Qingzhuang began to flee, seeing that the Black Mountain bandits were about to enter the village.
Su Ze and Lin Mojun on the battlefield had a good understanding, and the fighter plane had arrived.
When counting matchlock battles in the West, they once counted unskilled gunners who would have a relatively long intermission period after two shots.
The first round of projectiles is often loaded before combat, and most gunners can also correctly complete the loading of the second round.
However, when loading the third round, because the bird gun is heated by continuous shooting, unskilled bird gun players will be much slower when loading, and will be more likely to make mistakes.
Therefore, after the second shot of the gun is fired, it is the best time to attack.
Su Ze also told Lin Mojun this truth. He believed in Lin Mojun's ability to command on the battlefield, and said to Chen Haizhang:
"The Black Mountain thieves can be wiped out with just a few clicks. Don't disturb me from studying."
Sure enough, a round of intensive bird gunfire sounded immediately. The Black Mountain bandits would never have such a fast reloading speed. This must be Lin Mojun's move!
The battle is decided!
Su Ze held "Spring and Autumn" with peace of mind and started reading.
[Reading on the battlefield, imperial examination skill experience +5, Lv5, 1/1000]
Before Su Ze could be happy, he saw a flash of golden light.
This is!
Passively withdraw money?
It’s not that I’m dragging it out of context on purpose, it’s just that I’m not satisfied with what I thought before.
Do you have any good ideas...
