Three days later, the bandit army did not increase troops to the east bank of Baijian River; Pan Chenghu, Guo Jun judged, and Zhou Tian's bandits were on both sides of the Baijian River, and did not dare to approach Huaiyuan for harassment. Instead, they drove the fleeing people to cut wood and collect soil and strengthen the strongholds.

The main force of the thief army insisted on attacking Shibaliwu first. How could Xu Huai, Wang Bing, Deng Gui, Xu Wujiang and others still not understand?

After watching in July, the heat in Tongbai Mountain was slightly relieved.

In addition to leaving 200 troops in the town camp, under the leadership of Su Laochang, Zhonghe and others, nearly 400 other soldiers and horse soldiers guarded Huaiyuan with the inspectors' military soldiers, the other nearly 400 soldiers and horse soldiers passed through the camp of the Leaping Tiger Beach along the dirt road on the east bank of the Baijian River.

"Xiaoqing, there are no thieves today. You give Zheng Tu's cooked sheep head to our old friends!"

Xu Huai took the burnt sheep head next to the saddle and handed it to Tang Qing.

"My master, do you know how much effort I put into this sheep's head, why did I throw it to the thief?"

This time, Zheng Tu got the opportunity to go out with the army.

Xu Huai asked him to clean up overnight and bring a sheep head with him. He thought Xu Huai was greedy for his roasted lamb head meat and wanted to take it on the way to satisfy his cravings. He spent a lot of effort to choose a good sheep head and use a good sauce. He got up in the middle of the night and simmered it carefully for an hour and a half, but he didn't expect Xu Huai to throw the roasted lamb head into the thief camp.

Tang Qing happily grabbed the sheep's head and tied it up with a rope. He was careful, found a big tree, and threw the sheep's head towards the Trekker Camp. Guo Jun was really humiliated, so he shot him with a bow and arrow, so he could still hide behind the tree in time.

"What is this?" Deng Gui tied the reins and looked at Xu Huai. Tang Qing threw a burned sheep head into the thief camp like a playful look. Tang Pan, Yin Peng, Tang Xia and other generals all laughed at each other, and he asked curiously.

Although Tang Qing could throw so far, he didn't understand the meaning of doing so.

"Guo Junsheng sent us more than 40 heads last time, and we exchanged more than 700 stakes for you from Deng Langjun. Of course, we have to pay tribute," Xu Huai grabbed the reins and said, "Look at how excited Guo Junsheng is, his body is trembling. Unfortunately, we were still in a hurry to set off this time, so we brought a burning sheep head. If we gave one more, Guo Junsheng designated to send his subordinates to us again!"

Xu Huai said to Zheng Tu again: "You are good at burning the sheep's head and giving gifts. Next time, Guo Jun ordered the thief's head to send the gifts back, and you must count the first merit."

"Master, don't mess with me." Zheng Tu said happily.

Seeing Guo Jun's verdict at this time being honest and furious, Deng Gui smiled and advised Xu Huai: "We are going to see Xu Wufu, you have to calm me down. Don't make him angry and the scene is difficult to deal with!"

"What's hard to deal with? Just a few clicks!" Xu Huai said.

Seeing that Xu Huai was not willing to kill his family, Deng Gui could only shake his head and feel that he could not talk about such a reckless general.

This time Deng Gui personally accompanied Xu Wujiang, Xu Huai and others, with the purpose of persuading Xu Wufu to accept reality.

This is not only to avoid Xu Wufu from engaging in this matter in the future, but only Xu Wufu accepts the reality. These 400 Xu clan soldiers can completely let go of their worries and become the backbone force of the resistance army under the leadership of Xu Wujiang, Xu Huai and others.

If Xu Wufu continues to fight toughly, not only will Yuhuangling easily seize the opportunity for the bandit army to attack them, but the families of the four hundred Xu clan soldiers are all under Xu Wufu's control. Xu Wujiang, Xu Xin'an, Xu Sihu and others stay in Shituling, Xiema Mountain and Jinshagou family will also be threatened by Xu Wufu and cannot sleep or eat. How could they expect them to fight the bandit army without any distraction?

"Why do you still have to greet these dog thieves with a smile? I can't figure it out, I won't go!" Xu Heng knocked on the table with a knife and a scabbard, his forehead was roaring, and he asked his father Xu Wufu with a roar. He couldn't figure out that the dog thieves such as Deng Gui, Xu Wujiang, and Xu Huai took the Xu clan soldiers to Beiqiao Village, and his father would take them out of the village to greet him.

This is like an ignorant young man who just walked out of school and was slapped by society for 800 times, and he had to squeeze out his most perfect smile to face the fucking society.

Fuck! Very angry!

"What else do you have to understand now? All of this is a conspiracy between Xu Wujiang and Deng Gui," Xu Wufu took a long breath and said slowly, "Deng Gui needs the Xu clan soldiers to defend Huaiyuan for him. Xu Wujiang needs Deng Gui to clear the charge of the escaped army for him. We are wrong to let Xu Wukun go to Huaiyuan to communicate information and let them make peace and make peace talks to seize the army. The prefectures and counties are isolated from the bandit army. Deng Gui is the sky in Tongbai Mountain. Fighting him is against the prefectures and counties, and fighting the court... Do you have anything else to understand?"

If Deng Gui was here, he would definitely raise his arms and shout: I am not, I don’t, don’t talk nonsense!

It’s a pity that Deng Gui is not here.

When Xu Heng heard his father's words, he felt as if he had been removed from his stubbornness. He sat on the chair with depression and asked unwillingly: "Is it really necessary for these wolf-hearted and dog-hearted people to succeed?"

"Deng Gui summoned the Xu clan soldiers to suppress the bandits. It is wrong for us to openly oppose it. Deng Gui can kill us with the crime of enforcing the bandits - so if we don't accept reality, we will die!" Xu Bosong sighed repeatedly.

Xu Heng asked confusedly: "Can Deng Gui be so cruel? He insisted on arranging Xu Wujiang and the others to die. Can Xu Wujiang trust him?"

"So I've misunderstood from beginning to end," Xu Wufu said bitterly. "Maybe Xu Wujiang had no plans to be sent to Qingxi Village, but since then, Xu Wujiang has been walking by the nose in everything - it's ridiculous that we also used tens of thousands of money and grain to build ponds, new villages, and reclaim mountains. In the end, everything was made for this guy's wedding dress. If you say you are unwilling to give up, do you think I can't beat you? I'm so angry!"

"The bandits can settle down, and Xu Wujiang, a wolf-hearted person, can be proud, but we are rich people, how much can we fight against such cruel people?" Xu Zhongyu sighed. He tended to accept reality and said, "Actually, calm down and think about it. How much can we lose except to swallow it in one breath?"

The bandits in Tongbai Mountain are very fierce, but the world is generally peaceful and prosperous.

No one of them would think that Chen Zixiao and other big bandits could really succeed.

Just when the imperial court's army of bandit suppression came, the bandits were in Jingping and the clan soldiers were about to return to the village, picked up the rake and hoe and went into the fields to farm. Could they have taken the power of the four or five hundred clan soldiers into their hands and could they still go to heaven?

As for the dispatch of the township servants, the head of Huhuhu and other village servants, they had to take on the responsibility of collecting and escorting grain taxes, and if there was a slight mistake, they had to use their wealth to fill in. Sometimes they were really hard to dispatch.

Deng Gui is now extremely powerful and can take this sentencing away from them, but there is not much regret. At most, the Xu clan property will fall into the control of Xu Wujiang and others.

Xu Zhongyu cares more about his own land and houses. As long as they follow everything, they are not afraid that Deng Gui, a small inspector, will dare to rob him.

Of course, if they insist on fighting and were charged with the crime of tyrants by Deng Gui, it would be hard to say anything.

Perhaps these land and houses cannot fall into the hands of Deng Gui and Xu Wujiang, etc., but there are so many people in the prefectures and counties who eat meat and don’t spit bones. Who wouldn’t catch their handles and come over to get a share of the pie?

Those who know the times are heroes, there is really no need to fight for a breath.

"We are deeply trapped by Xu Wujiang. If Xu Wujiang cannot clear the charge of the escaped army, we will also be involved in the incident in the future. Now Xu Wujiang can clear the charge, which is not a bad thing for us." Zhou Jing, a child of the foreign surname, was not very concerned about the struggle for power and profit within the Xu family. He still cared about the old friendship between Xu Wukun, Xu Wuliang and Xu Huai's father, hoping to try his best to bridge the broken relationship between the two sides.

Xu Wufu glanced at Zhou Jing with a gloomy look, but said nothing, just warned Xu Heng to endure whatever character he had.

"Who can tolerate the brutal bandits and slaughter the countryside? However, Wu Fu was occasionally experiencing the wind and was about to break the limelight. Uncle Bosong and Uncle Zhongyu were also old and could not bear to lead the village soldiers to fight to kill the thieves. "Xu Wufu said word by word, "Fortunately, Xu Wujiang has Xu Wujiang, who is extremely brave and has the plan to command the army. He first served as the military camp and respected and loved by the top and the bottom. He was accused of being forced to flee the army by the treacherous man, and was fortunate to be cleared of the unjust reputation of Deng Langjun-I discussed with the old man in the Xu clan, and specially recommended Xu Wujiang as the chief of the Yuhuangling capital, served Deng Langjun in Anqian, and led the village soldiers to kill the thieves..."

"Okay, Mr. Xu has the ability to train troops, is wise to recognize people, and is also dedicated to transporting food and fodder to help suppress bandits. Such righteous acts are to be reported to the court by the governor Chen Langjun. Maybe Mr. Xu will really become a man!"

Although Deng Gui was able to serve as a member of all rural servants in Tongbai Mountain at this time, Deng Gui, Xu Bosong, Xu Zhongyu and others were recommended as elders of the Xu clan and then appointed him, which would block all the truth.

If Deng Gui, Xu Bosong, Xu Zhongyu and others cooperate in this way, Deng Gui will certainly not be stingy with good words.

Of course, he is not completely boasting. If Cai Ying did not interfere in the court in the future, after the bandits were pacified, it would not be difficult for Xu Wufu to transfer from an official to an official through his meritorious deeds.

Of course, there was Cai Ying in the court, and Deng Gui himself thought about being able to survive this disaster safely, and did not expect to get great achievements to be rewarded. The higher he climbed, the closer he was to Cai Ying, the more dangerous he was. What other benefits could he have?

Xu Huai held the knife and secretly observed the expressions of Xu Wufu, Xu Heng, Xu Bosong, Xu Zhongyu, Xu Wuli, Zhou Jing and others. Seeing that although they were angry, they could still recognize the facts in front of them.

This is also very normal.

The failure to successfully lure the main force of the thief army from the 18 Liwu this time shows that Zheng Hui is still a little capable.

To avoid the main force of the bandit army from capturing the 18 Liwu, solve their worries and then siege Huaiyuan, they must also launch an offensive against the bandit camps such as Tiaohutan and Yingzizui to alleviate the bandits east of the Baijian River, and it is best to open up the connection with Xinyang County to the east.

And if the worries on Yuhuangling cannot be solved at this time, how can we expect the village camp with the Xu clan as the main force and inspecting the military soldiers, and we can do our best to attack the bandit camp without any distraction?

It has reached this point. Xu Wufu, Xu Bosong, Xu Zhongyu and others are really ignorant of being polite. Even if Deng Gui, Xu Wujiang and others are still hesitant, Xu Huai will instigate them to forcibly detain Xu Wufu and others on the charge of collusion with bandits, or directly reward them with a few good coffins!
