Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 36 News
The news of Xuanyuan Mountain finally came.

It only took one month for Cui Jin to gain the attention of the mountain master Guo Shi.

Cui Jin is not only capable, but also has both civil and military skills, and the key point is her outstanding appearance. As soon as she went up the mountain, she was favored by Guo Shi's daughter Guo Furong.

In the letter, Guo Shi intended to call Cui Jin his son-in-law.

The fashion since the Wei and Jin Dynasties has attached great importance to manners, that is, appearance and bearing. Wei Yu, the grandson of Wei Yu, entered Jiankang after he crossed the south, and attracted all the people in the city to admire his manners. The allusion of "Looking at Killing Wei Jie".

Good-looking people can be eaten in any age and anywhere.

As long as Guo Shi is not blind, Cui Jin will definitely be reused.

If Cui Jin becomes Xuanyuanshan's son-in-law, then the problem of the alliance between the two sides will not be a big problem.

"Cui Sima also said that Xuanyuan Mountain is quite powerful, and there are several powerful generals, so it should not be taken by force. Let the general wait for a while." The confidant cupped his hands.

"It doesn't matter whether you take it or not, report back to my brother, his safety is the top priority, if you can't do anything, return immediately."

"The villain will convey the general's wishes."

Heiyunshan is currently training, so it is not suitable to face a strong enemy head-on.

Li Ju was able to fight back and forth with Liu Cong and Shi Le back then, and the descendants of his tribe must have some skills.

Take it easy on anything.

As long as Heiyunshan loses once, the newly accumulated hearts will disappear in smoke.

Since he could not expand to the south of Xuanyuan Mountain, Li Yue could only advance westward into Funiu Mountain.

While plundering people and food, they trained soldiers in actual combat.

Training is only the foundation, and the real formation of combat power still depends on actual combat.

Although the military strength of Heiyun Mountain has been reduced, its combat effectiveness has been greatly improved. In the past, a village with a size of 500 people needed 500 people to raid, but now [-] people can take it down.

The experience of the scouts became more and more abundant. The soldiers attacked from the front, they raided from the trails, attacked from both sides, and left more than a hundred people lying in ambush at the mountain pass, laying traps, waiting for those who escaped.

So in addition to the scouts and secret agents in the scout battalion, there was another new army.

Specialized in catching fleeing people.

In the past, when we dispatched once, a stockade of 1000 people could only capture two to 300 people, and they were still too old and weak to run.

People are not animals. They have legs, feet and brains. If you drill into the mountains, you can't find them.

With the capture of freshmen, the efficiency has been greatly improved. Five or six hundred people can be captured at a time, and the proportion of young and strong is also increasing.

The population of Heiyun Mountain grew to 8000.

But a serious problem lies ahead. There is not enough food, and even the replanted crops in the ground cannot support so many people.

The beasts in the mountain also became smart and vigilant under the sweep of the scouts, and ran away from the area around Heiyun Mountain, and ran into the deep mountain.

The prey brought back by the scouts became less and less, and it was difficult for the training soldiers to eat a bite of meat.

Li Yue can only go to Bo Wu.

"Why hasn't Guangzong's food come yet?"

It's been two months, and even if it's climbing, it's crawling.

Guangzong is not far from Xingyang, just across the Yellow River, three hundred miles away.

Bo Wu was dizzy from drinking as usual, "I am also very puzzled about this matter. I have sent someone to Guangzong to inquire about it a few days ago, and there should be an answer today."

What Li Yue wanted was food, not Echo. Without food, the training of soldiers and the inspection of scouts had to stop.

"Could it be robbed halfway?"

The two sides of the Yellow River were not peaceful. The Jie people took the lead in robbing, and the Di people and Qiang people followed. To the south of the big river, thieves swarmed. Tian Baozi blocked the road and killed people, and those Wubao did the same.

It is self-evident what a thousand stones of grain means in this world.

But there was no reply from Bo Wu, and Li Yue's scouts got the news first.

They found clues along the Yellow River in Liyang County.

More than 30 corpses were found, and each of the beggars carried identity marks, wooden plaques, or uniform scars on their bodies.

There were beggars among the scouts, so they found their traces.

Wei Shan was furious, "You are so bold, you dare to grab food from the begging army!"

Li Yue looked at the location marked by the scouts on the map where the body was found, and Fangtou was opposite.

Fangtou is an important ferry, guarding the north of the river and overlooking the south of the river.

In the ninth year of Jian'an in the Han Dynasty, King Wu of Wei built a large Fang wood in Shuikou to form a giant weir, so it was named Fangtou.

The Yellow River, Qishui River, Baigou River, and Qing River converge here, and the distance from here to the north to Yecheng is not long, and there are no waterways. To attack Yecheng, you must first capture Fangtou.

From time to time there are rumors that Fangtou has the kingly spirit of Wei Wu.

Now it is Di Wang Puhong who guards Fangtou. The Di people have been entrenched here for 14 years, and they are powerful. They routinely persuade Shihu to stop atrocities and govern the country with a gentle policy. Shihu is deeply afraid and only dares to harm his brothers secretly. Heir, but dare not touch him.

The Pu family was originally a small handsome man among the Di people. The Yongjia rebellion gave the Di people a chance. In addition, Pu Hong has outstanding ability, wisdom and courage, and often distributes his family wealth to help others. He has a very good reputation. He stood out, and after migrating to Fangtou, he was granted the title of governor of refugees and Duke of Xiping County by Shihu.

The Di people who moved westward to Fangtou were justifiably unified under the banner of Puhong.

If he made the move, things would be difficult.

Heiyun Mountain will definitely not be able to move them, unless all the begging troops unite, they will have the strength to fight.

But in this case, it would be a big war. Under the eyes of Yecheng, the two groups of people were on fire, what would Shi Hu think?
"This matter may not have been done by Pu Hong. Lao Di is a good person, willing to do good, and quite strategic. He will not turn his face against the begging army for a mere thousand shi of grain. In addition, Pu Hong has a very good relationship with Li Gong, and he will never intercept him." Kill our people."

Jiang is still old and spicy, although Bo Wu is dizzy, but there is not much drunkenness in his eyes.

"Could it be that his subordinates did it behind his back?" Li Yue suggested another possibility.

Pu Hong didn't like it, but his subordinates might not look down on it.

After thinking for a while, Bo Wu said: "I'll send a few old brothers to inquire directly in the name of the begging army, and Pu Hong will definitely give us an answer!"

Li Yue said respectfully, "Uncle, thank you."

Bo Wu waved his hand, "Now there is a family on the mountain, so there is no need to see outsiders."

These words sound fine on the surface, but when you think about it deeply, there seems to be some overtones.

Li Yue integrated Heiyun Mountain, but never vented to Bo Wu. This is tantamount to taking advantage of others, wiped his mouth, patted his ass and left.

Others are silent because they have big stomachs.

But if you don't say hello, you just don't know the etiquette.

Sometimes words and deeds are not in place, and estrangement comes.

The last time Ma Chun made trouble, if Bo Wu also got involved, the matter would not be so simple.

Without Bo Wu's secret support, how could Heiyun Mountain be integrated so easily?
"Recently, there are many affairs on the mountain. I didn't ask my uncle for instructions. If there is something not thoughtful, I hope my uncle will forgive me." Li Yue also had something to say.

Of course Bo Wu could understand, his eyes and expression were much gentler, "Haha, I'm serious, since you took over as the head of the village, the weather on the mountain has been completely new. people!"

"Thank you uncle!" Li Yue suddenly felt a kind of love from the elders.

Bo Wuneng became the leader of the begging army, and he was undoubtedly a very charismatic person.

Five days later, not only did the news come back, Pu Hong also forwarded seven hundred shi of grain.

"A little food, to show my general's wishes. Although your department and Fangtou were killed, it was not my fault, but it is also a crime of negligence." A man dressed as a scholar cupped his hands.
