Chapter 269: Insufficient Blades to Resolve Hate (Yue Yibo)
The frontal battle outside the village was commanded by Song Jiang himself. Two thousand Liangshan men walked more than a hundred steps outside the village and stopped to sort out the queue.?
Song Jiang even boosted morale by fighting on both sides. The men who attacked the front were inspired by Song Jiang's words, and seemed to have a sharp rise in morale and kept roaring.
In order to restrain the main force of Zhujiazhuang, Song Jiang personally led 2,000 people to attack the front village gate, and there were also thousands of people attacking the left and right village gates. The real main attack place was Zhujiazhuang's back village, and Wu Yong led nearly 3,000 elite troops to attack.
Song Jiang and Wu Yong made such strategic arrangements reasonably, and the confusion of feinting and main attack was achieved to the extreme.
Zheng Zhi was watching Song Jiang keep motivating his morale on the front wall. He did not start attacking for a long time. He thought he was waiting for all the attackers from the front and back to the left to the left to take their positions and then move together.
There is nothing wrong with this command, but Song Jiang did this move to boost morale too early. It is said that one move will decline again and then be exhausted. When morale is strong, you must start attacking. Long-term encouragement may not be a good thing.
Zheng Zhi didn't look much, and bowed his hands to signal, slowly got off the city. The old lady of the Zhu family came down with Hu Sanniang.
The three of them had just fallen down, and the outside of the village was already shouting to kill him.
Zhu Chaofeng walked on the street where there were no people, with a very serious expression, which shows that he was also nervous.
Zheng Zhi turned a deaf ear to the shouting of killing. Seeing Zhu Chaofeng, he smiled and said, "Old lady, this Zhujiazhuang must be more than 200 miles from Cangzhou, right?"
"Mr. Zheng is more than 200 miles away, but about 300 miles away. If you count it to Qingchi City, there will always be 340 or 50 miles away." Although Zhu Chaofeng was answering, he frequently looked back to see the battle situation on the wall.
Zheng Zhi nodded when he heard the words: "Three hundred miles, the official road can walk about two hundred miles, and the path still needs to be dozens of miles. Now, the food transport is a big deal, and the path is really inconvenient. The old lady should repair the road to facilitate horse racing."
Zheng Zhi wanted to turn the road from Dulonggang to Cangzhou into a highway, not just for the purpose of transporting grain now, and has not made preparations in the future.
Zhu Chaofeng naturally felt it made sense when he heard the words, so he nodded and replied: "My husband is right. The spring plowing is over, and it is the slack farming process. The road for several months is ready to be harvested."
For Zhujiazhuang, building roads does not require a large investment in special funds. The people are all children of the same clan, and they only need to prepare meals. Zhujiazhuang has more grain, but labor is free to work. The family forces always have such convenience in doing such things.
Zheng Zhi naturally knew this principle, so he spoke directly. Building roads is not a difficult task for Zhujiazhuang.
But when he said this, Hu Sanniang, who was following behind, also said, "I, the Hu family, will naturally help with the road construction."
Zhu Chaofeng heard the words and said with a smile: "My niece is not behind, haha... Of course, there is a copy of your Hu family."
Zheng Zhi also looked at Hu Sanniang with a smile and said, "Sanniang, I just want you to be a daughter, otherwise I would have followed me to Cangzhou to join the army, wouldn't it be a pleasure?"
Hu Sanniang raised her eyebrows and seemed to be joyful at the corners of her eyes. She obviously listened to Zheng Zhi's joke and replied briskly: "What's wrong with joining the army? My Sanniang is not inferior to a man. There was Mulan in ancient times, but now I, Hu Sanniang, is just right."
Zheng Zhi was stunned when he heard this. He was really just a joke. Hu Sanniang was really stupid and bold. If he really got into the army under his command, he could not beat or scold him, and naturally he would not obey his command on the battlefield. That would definitely be a disaster.
Zheng Zhi naturally did not dare to go down to answer this topic. He quickly looked back at Zhu Chaofeng and asked, "What should the old lady do to deal with Li Ying's affairs?"
Hu Sanniang saw Zheng Zhi pretending not to hear her words, and was so angry that she stomped her feet. Even the sound of stomping her feet was "bang bang". It seemed that Hu Sanniang was still a girlish character after all. Although Hu Sanniang was so angry that her cheeks were bulging, she didn't speak. She knew in her heart that the two of them were discussing the serious matter and shouldn't have stepped forward to interrupt at this time. She also listened to their handling of the Lijiazhuang issue.
Zheng Zhi was naturally surprised to hear Hu Sanniang's actions behind him. This was the first time Hu Sanniang showed such a girlish nature in front of Zheng Zhi. Even so, Zheng Zhi pretended not to hear it, just waiting for Zhu Chaofeng's words.
Zhu Chaofeng was very serious when he heard Zheng Zhi's question. Li Ying's handling was really not that simple. Although he said when he was angry, he wanted to settle the Lijiazhuang, but the three Dulonggang families had been married for decades, and the children of the clan had been married for decades. Every household was a relative. If they wanted to settle the Lijiazhuang, it would be really difficult to start.
If you only kill Li Ying, it is not that simple and it is not so easy to succeed. The most likely thing is to make a big fight, and you will be in a dilemma.
"Mr. Zheng, the only way to cheat and kill Li Ying!" Zhu Chaofeng thought for a long time before he said that although he was in a dilemma, he had a murderous intention.
Zheng Zhi shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that it won't be possible to kill. After this incident, Li Ying will definitely be frightened. How dare he show up easily? If a person with a guilty thief will naturally be suspicious."
Zhu Chaofeng heard the words, stroked his gray beard a few times, and said with a deep face: "It is really inappropriate to attack Lijiazhuang. Many of the daughters of Zhuhu and the daughters of the two families have married into Lijiazhuang, and many of the daughters of the Li family have married into Zhuhu and the two families. If they want to attack him, they are afraid that the men will not want to."
Zheng Zhi heard the words and knew that things were not as simple as he imagined. There were only three major families in Dulonggang, so intermarriage was inevitable. It was naturally impossible to have to ask his nephew to kill his uncle.
Zheng Zhi also had a deep face and moved forward slowly. Li Ying, a person who was stingy insiders, was too selfish. In order to reap the benefits of a fisherman, even his in-laws who had been in the past few decades could be betrayed. If such a person was not killed, Dulonggang would not be able to be stable.
"Then I will do it for you to take care of the funeral." Zheng Zhi said this while his brows were tightened.
Zhu Chaofeng's face relaxed and looked at Zheng Zhi. He felt that it was feasible, but he asked again: "How can I kill him?"
In Zhu Chaofeng's opinion, even if Zheng Zhi does it on his behalf, he still has to find Li Ying before he can start killing him. If Li Ying really doesn't go out, how could he kill him?
"When Song Jiang leaves, I will go to visit him and kill him when I see him. After the killing, I will come out. The old lady will then go to deal with the funeral." Zheng Zhi said without caring.
Zheng Zhi spoke easily, Zhu Chaofeng was surprised when he heard it. Although he had countless worries in his heart, he was blocked by Zheng Zhi's indifferent tone. Things seemed to be that simple, but it was very dangerous.
Hu Sanniang was simple-minded. When she heard Zheng Zhi say that he would kill him, she was even more passionate and gritted her teeth and said, "I'll go with you. This dog thief who is traitor can't help but relieve his hatred."
Zheng Zhi heard this stupid and boldly wanted to go with him, so he turned around and waved his hand and said, "This matter is dangerous, Sanniang is waiting for good news in the village."
Zhu Chaofeng also smiled bitterly and said, "Sanniang, don't get involved in this matter, just let Sanlang and her husband go with you."
The Saburo who Zhu Chaofeng said was naturally Zhu Biao. Zhu Chaofeng obviously agreed with Zheng Zhi's approach.
Hu Sanniang wanted to argue, but Old Lady Zhu also spoke. Hu Sanniang had no choice but to say angrily: "You all look down on your daughter. I am not worse than a man. Yesterday I also captured a general of Song Jiang, a man in the village. Who wouldn't say that my Sanniang is a hero?"
It would be fine if I didn't mention this matter, but when Hu Sanniang said it, Zheng Zhi was really impatient and his tone was already bad, and he scolded: "You still have the face to say this matter. If I hadn't opened the door to rescue you, you would have been caught by Song Jiang in Liangshan as the wife of the village."
That's true. In the original work, Zhu Biao opened the door to rescue him, and Luan Tingyu also fought with several people. Hu Sanniang was also arrested on the spot, and Song Jiang used Hu Sanniang to force Hujiazhuang to remain neutral in this battle. In the end, Hujiazhuang was broken by Li Kui and the whole family was slaughtered. In the end, this stupid and bold were forced to marry Wang Ying's foul man.
Hu Sanniang saw Zheng Zhi's serious and angry look, but she was so scared that she lowered her head quickly, unable to speak, and looked like a child who did something wrong.
Zheng Zhi saw that Hu Sanniang was scolded by her, so he lowered his head and was surprised, thinking to himself why Hu Sanniang changed her personality and became arbitrary to others?
Zhu Chaofeng was surprised to see Hu Sanniang bowing her head. Zhu Chaofeng naturally knew what kind of Hu Sanniang was. This little lady was also considered to be Zhu Chaofeng who grew up and had a engagement with his third son. Zhu Chaofeng thought about this action slightly and knew the reason.
Zhu Chaofeng, who was a decades old, had already guessed in his heart that he was afraid that Hu Sanniang would have feelings for Zheng Zhi. Otherwise, how could he admit defeat so easily?
Thinking of this, Zhu Chaofeng's mouth trembled slightly, and his son was still engaged to Hu Sanniang. However, Sanniang fell in love with Zheng Zhi. What is this? It would be fine if his son didn't have Sanniang in his heart, but Zhu Biao liked to wander around Sanniang since he was a child.
Just when Zhu Chaofeng was upset, he shouted and shouted and scolded him on the wall. The bandits in Liangshan had already begun to climb up to the wall.
Zhu Chaofeng quickly turned around to see the movements on the city. He saw a busy wall, with figures slamming down with rolling stones everywhere, and many feather arrows flew into the village. Zhu Chaofeng's heart was already tight.
Seeing Zhu Chaofeng stopping and looking back, Zheng Zhi reached out and pulled Zhu Chaofeng, and said lightly: "Old lady, don't worry, Song Jiang can't enter the village, let's go to the back door to take a look."
