People are knives, I am fish.

Boss Fu understands this truth. Since he has already fallen into the hands of the government, his life is beyond his control. The most important thing now is to save his life, so as soon as Chu Huan finished speaking, Fu Gang said without hesitation: "I choose to live, Chu... Master Chu, I will do whatever you ask me to do."

Chu Huan smiled slightly, as if he was satisfied with the boss's answer, "Fu Gang, those who know current affairs are heroes, it seems that you are indeed a hero."

Fu Gang couldn't care less about the sarcasm in Chu Huan's words, so he could only bite the bullet and say: "Master Chu is very resourceful, and the villain is convinced."

"In this case, let's have a good talk." Chu Huan sat down on the chair, looked at Fu Gang with a smile, "I heard that you are from Huluzhai?"

Fu Gang said: "Yes...he came from Calabash Village."

"Why do you want to rob the salt?"

Fu Gang explained: "General Qiu ordered us to go down the mountain to search for property and food. The villain brought dozens of people down the mountain, but the people around the gourd village have already run away. We can't find any food. We can't explain it. So we had to go farther and farther... Then we saw a convoy transporting salt to Hezhou, we secretly observed it for two days, and found an opportunity...!"

Chu Huan said "Oh" and asked, "I told you to look for food and grass. Is there a shortage of food in Gourd Village?"

Fu Gang hurriedly said: "The gourd village has stored a lot of food, and there is no shortage of food, but General Qiu wants to store as much food as possible, so he sends people out to look for food regularly."

Chu Huan nodded and asked, "How many people are there in Gourd Village now? What role do you play in Gourd Village?"

"How many people, in fact... the villain doesn't know." Fu Gang said: "Every now and then, a group of people will go to the mountain to seek refuge. The Calabash Mountain stretches for hundreds of miles, and the Calabash Villages are all over the Calabash Mountain. There are several big villages , each village is located near a mountain peak, and a beacon tower is built on the mountain peak. Whenever there is a change in a camp, the beacon fire will be lit. There are six villages like this in Hulu Mountain, and each of them has a Peak Lord...!"

Chu Huan stared into Fu Gang's eyes calmly, Fu Gang only felt that the young Governor's eyes were extremely sharp, and he was very uncomfortable being stared at.

"In other words, you won't even tell me how many people there are in Calabash Village?" Chu Huan sighed.

Fu Gang shuddered, and hurriedly said: "Lord Chu, that's not what I meant. I... I really don't know the exact number. Before I went up the mountain, I heard that there were at least 4000 or 5000 people in Huluzhai. When I go up the mountain Every now and then, someone went to defect, and according to the estimate of the villain, there are at least [-] people in Huluzhai now."

Chu Huan frowned.

It is really not a small number for a cottage to gather 5000 people.

"You said that Calabash Village has six cottages, so which one is General Qiu?" Chu Huan asked.

Fu Gang shook his head and said: "General Qiu is haunted by ghosts. Everyone knows that he is in the mountains, but there are six villages where he lives. Today he lives here, and tomorrow he may live in another place. Even the people close to him, There is no way of knowing exactly where he will appear."

"This is the Three Caves of the Cunning Rabbit." Chu Huan frowned and said, "It seems that your General Qiu is a cautious person... By the way, what is the background of General Qiu? I heard that many bandits in your Gourd Village used to be soldiers? "

Fu Gang nodded immediately this time and said: "There are quite a few soldiers. I know some of them well. They used to be members of the vanguard battalion of the Northwest Army. After the Xiliang people came in, they escaped from the army and hid in Hulu Mountain."

"What is the origin of General Qiu?"

"This villain doesn't know about it." Fu Gang said: "No one in the village dares to talk about General Qiu behind his back. If the people in the Ear and Eye Camp know about it, they will lose their heads."

"Ear and eye camp?"

"General Qiu has specially set up an ear-eye battalion, all of whom are his cronies. They wander around every corner of the village all day long. As long as they hear someone talking about him behind their backs or saying something that endangers the village, the ear-eye battalion will arrest them. He chopped off his head and threw it from the cliff at the back of the mountain." Fu Gang's eyes were obviously frightened.

Chu Huan pondered for a moment before asking: "Of course there are troops deployed in the six villages?"

"All of them." Fu Gang nodded hurriedly, "Of the six villages, Xuri Village is the largest and has the most people stationed there. It lives among the six villages and is the only center that can lead to the other villages. That is Hulu Village. Therefore, General Qiu deployed the most troops there, and most of those who escaped from the Northwest Army were organized in the Rising Sun Village."

Chu Huan thought for a while and continued to ask: "As far as I know, Huluzhai has a lot of horses, as well as a lot of grain and weapons. Do you know where these materials are stored?"

Fu Gang immediately said: "I don't know."

Chu Huan smiled coldly and said, "You really don't know?"

Fu Gang's forehead was sweating: "My lord, the horses are scattered all over the village, and the villain can't move around in each village, so... I really don't know, as far as the storage of food, grass and weapons are important supplies of General Qiu, We don't even know where it is."

Chu Huan smiled calmly, and winked at Xu Shao who was not far from Fu Gang, Xu Shao immediately backed away, Fu Gang was wondering what kind of medicine Chu Huan was selling in the gourd, and soon heard footsteps, and saw Xu Shao led two soldiers and pushed a bandit in. Fu Gang naturally recognized that bandit as his subordinate. Seeing that bandit had a bruised nose and a swollen face, he must have suffered a lot before.

The gangsters were still in shock, Chu Huan looked at the gangsters with a smile, and asked, "Do you know where the food, horses, and ordnance in the gourd village are stored?"

Before the bandits opened their mouths, Chu Huan had already added: "The governor will never cherish his life for a useless person, so if you don't know the answer, your head may fall to the ground."

The gangsters were stunned for a moment and glanced at Fu Gang. Seeing that Fu Gang also looked terrified, they could only say: "My lord, my villain... The villain only knows that the horses are scattered in various villages. Little man... Although the little man doesn't know for sure, but I heard from them that the food and grass may be in Scorching Sun Peak...!"

Chu Huan looked at Fu Gang and sighed: "Even he knows some clues, but you don't know anything? Fu Gang, it seems that you are really dishonest."

Fu Gang said anxiously: "My lord, that's just their rumors, not necessarily true... The villain dare not say something that I don't know...!"

Chu Huan smiled lightly, and said, "Even if you don't know for sure, it's still some clues. Fu Gang, you let the governor down, and you will be punished." As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Gang felt a strong wind coming from behind, Xu Shao didn't know when a horsewhip was added in his hand, and the horsewhip slapped Fu Gang's back heavily. Fu Gang felt the skin on his back was torn and burned like pain, and couldn't help but yelled "Ouch".

Chu Huan raised his hand and said, "Give him something to eat, and the governor will never treat him badly if he can answer questions honestly."

After the soldiers escorted the gangsters down, Chu Huan asked with a smile, "There is a saying that the grain and grass are on the Scorching Sun Peak?"

Fu Gang said helplessly: "It is true that some people in the village say that most of the grain and grass are stored in Scorching Sun Peak, but the villain has never seen it with his own eyes...!"

"Where's the weapon?"

"The weapons are at Sunset Peak." This time, Fu Gang was straightforward: "They said that the armory might be built at Sunset Peak."

"Very good." Chu Huan was very satisfied this time, "Fu Gang, you have turned into a bandit, robbed homes, harmed the people, and even dared to rob the government's salt. It is really a heinous crime. You should be held accountable for the crime, with your brain. It is not enough to cut back and forth ten times and eight times."

Fu Gang begged: "My lord, please forgive me. The villain doesn't know that the salt belongs to the government. If he knows that it belongs to the lord, the villain will not dare to make a decision after eating a leopard."

"How long have you been in Calabash Village?"

"It's been eight months."

"Eight months is not a short time." Chu Huan said, "Have you been to all the villages?"

Fu Gang shook his head and said: "There are six villages in Calabash Village, the villain has only been to four villages, and there are two villages that I have never set foot in."

"Then you are not unfamiliar with the terrain of Calabash Village." Chu Huan stared at Fu Gang, "The Governor wants you to do one thing for me now, to give you a chance to redeem your sins, are you willing?"

"The villain is willing." Fu Gang didn't even think about it, and asked cautiously: "I don't know what the adult wants the villain to do?"

"Draw a picture." Chu Huan said with a smile: "Since you are no stranger to the terrain of Huluzhai, you must know the outposts, roads and strongholds. This governor will give you a chance to help him draw a topographic map. .”

Fu Gang was stunned, a little confused: "My lord, Calabash Mountain is too big, and the roads in the village are criss-crossed, and there are many checkpoints and strongholds. I'm afraid I can't draw it."

Chu Huan looked at Xu Shao, waved and said, "Pull it down and chop it up."

Fu Gang lost his mind, and hurriedly said: "Can... the villain will do his best to draw all the terrain he knows...!"

"Don't worry, the governor will not let you be so lonely alone." Chu Huan got up and went out, Xu Shao escorted Fu Gang to follow behind, Fu Gang was at a loss, followed Chu Huan into another large courtyard, I saw that in the middle of the yard, there were more than a dozen tables. The distance between the tables was not small. Every table was prepared with pens, ink, paper and inkstones. There were people sitting on the edge of the tables. Fu Gang Taking a glance, he saw that these people were all his subordinates who were taken prisoner with him. Seeing Fu Gang being escorted in, this group of people looked at each other in blank dismay.

The courtyard was very large, and every few steps around stood a soldier in full armor, with a knife on his waist, all holding the handle of the knife, like a tiger wolf waiting around.

Xu Shao cut the rope that bound Fu Gang's arm, pointed to an empty desk, and said coldly, "Go and sit down."

Fu Gang was puzzled, but he didn't dare to disobey, so he could only walk over and sit down. Chu Huan looked around with his hands behind his back, and then he said with a smile: "I know that you all come from poor backgrounds, and you don't know how to read and write. Today, the governor It is not for you to read and write, but to give you a chance to redeem yourself according to the method of those students taking the exam."

All the gangsters looked at Chu Huan, wondering what the hell Chu Huan was going to do.
