Chapter 44 Longmen Village

"Climb over the mountain in front and we should be there!" Chen Qiba pointed to a mountain in front and said, where Feng Xuejian, his wife and others should be.

"Wangshan is a dead horse. Let's camp on the spot." Fujian is mountainous and the mountain roads are difficult to travel, so the army's marching speed is naturally much slower. Sun Yu also understood why these three forces have been unable to conquer this place. Since ancient times, the mountain people

You are tough, and the mountain road is difficult to navigate. If you can't kill you, you will be dragged to death.

"Sir, why don't you see anyone coming to contact you?" Bahu couldn't figure it out. Haven't they all been contacted? Why are they almost here and can't even see a person?

"I don't know either. It stands to reason that there are people on guard along the way. We should have discovered it after we came here so brazenly." Sun Yu felt that Feng Xuejian and his wife should know the whereabouts of him and others, otherwise they would be found so easily.

The lair has probably been killed long ago.

"Is there something unexpected?" Bahu didn't like to use his brain at all. He felt a little pain in his forehead these days and couldn't think about it anymore.

"Accident? No matter what, eat and drink enough to sleep." Sun Yu dropped his rice bowl, touched his belly and walked towards the tent. It was useless to think about it, just be prepared.

Early the next morning, the army marched forward in an orderly manner. At noon, they crossed a mountain and Longmen Mountain was already in sight. The closer they got, the more puzzled Sun Yu was. He could clearly see the soldiers on guard. When they saw their army, they neither said hello nor said anything.

He stopped him and ran straight into the mountains without a trace.

At the foot of Longmen Mountain, Sun Yu and his party stopped. In front of them was the core of the self-protection of the village, Longmen Village, which was the meeting place agreed with Feng Xuejian and his wife. Longmen Village was heavily guarded, the gate of the village was closed, and the guards above were fully armored.

Not bad.

"My lord is Mr. Sun, the governor of Jianzhou. He is coming to Guizhai as scheduled. Please let me know." Gao Huichang rode forward and announced his identity.

After waiting for a long time, there was no response. Sun Yu, who was riding on the horse, had a displeased look on his face. He followed me and hurried over slowly. What's the matter with you not seeing me behind closed doors?

"I give you half an hour to open the door, otherwise I will launch an attack. Don't blame me for unpredicted words." Sun Yu was so angry that he didn't even respond for a long time. As the governor of Jianzhou, he even entered the village.

Not allowed?

"The Sword and Shield Battalion is in position, support the shield!"

Boom, boom, boom, dust was flying in the open space in front of Longmen Village, and two neat rows of large shields were erected one after another. The sword and shield soldiers huddled behind, and their entire bodies were covered by the shields.

"The spear battalion is in position, set up the guns!"

The spear battalion stood neatly behind the shield. In an instant, a row of spears was placed on the shield. The shield was stretched out four feet, and the sharp edges of the spear tips became more dazzling under the sunlight.

"The bow and arrow camp is in place, string up!"

The archers trotted into position and squatted on the ground to string their bows and arrows. In order to ensure the elasticity of the bows, they did not string them at ordinary times and only string them in war.

"The strong crossbow camp is in place!"

A crossbow cart was placed on the position behind the archers. The operation of the strong crossbow was quite complicated. The strong crossbow battalion was in a hurry and finally loaded the crossbow arrows. The largest crossbow cart, arrow shaft

It is as thick as a child's arm, made entirely of pig iron, and is a powerful weapon specially used to attack cities.

"Brother, why hasn't there been a response from inside?" One of the guards was shaking a little. This is a regular army, and they have strong crossbows. There are rows of soldiers and cavalry behind them. How can we fight with such a small body? I'm afraid it only takes a few.

After a round of volleys, I'm afraid there won't be many people left.

"I didn't know, just wait a little longer!" The leader of the guard was also a little frightened. These were officers and soldiers. Once they took action, he and others would become rebels.

"Big Qiu, light some incense!" Sun Yu wasn't trying to scare anyone. If he didn't open the door when the time came, he would just rush in and see what he saw.

What the hell is going on.

"If the incense burns out, if you don't open the door, you will die!" In front of the army formation, Zhang Daqiu directly put the incense on the ground, shouted at the village, and returned.

"Brother, what should we do?" The guard looked at the half-burned incense, as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

"Don't worry, the village leaders inside must already know the situation here, and someone will definitely come out." The guard leader was also very anxious. As soon as Zhang Daqiu put the incense in the place, he sent people in again to report.

"My lord, please forgive me. I am the leader of Longmen Village, Qi Wei. I'm late." With all the guards worried, the gate of the village finally opened. A middle-aged man excused himself and walked towards the army.

.

"I am the governor and defense envoy of Jianzhou. I can't enter your village?" Sun Yu waved his hand, and each battalion temporarily collected their weapons and waited for orders.

"Sir, it's all a misunderstanding! In order to resist the banditry, the young men had no choice but to form a stronghold to protect themselves. There were some small misunderstandings among the stronghold leaders. This, for a moment, neglected the adults." Qi Wei wiped the sweat from his forehead and saw in front of him

The governor was not someone to be trifled with. He was under too much pressure before the army.

"Misunderstanding? I want to go in and see what misunderstandings are going on." Sun Yu shook the reins and planned to enter Longmen Village.

"Sir, this..." Qi Wei wanted to stop him, but was afraid of offending Sun Yu.

"I'll give you two choices. One is to go in now, organize your troops, and wait for my army to attack the city. The other is to go in with me. I never treat my own people badly." Sun Yu stopped his horse and turned to Qi Qi.

Wei said. If he can take this person under his command, he will have many people he can use. After all, he is in Jianzhou, but his eyesight is dark.

"Sir, I am willing to do my best." Qi Wei, who had a troubled look on his face, knelt down directly. This is a great opportunity. The man in front of him is the governor of a state at a young age. If he can follow him

Isn't it possible to work as an official and honor the ancestors? As for the messy things inside, I can't care about it.

"Let's talk about it first, what's going on inside?" Since this person is willing to surrender to him, Sun Yu naturally needs to find out the situation first.

It turns out that these villages that formed a stronghold to protect themselves were nominally respected by Feng Xuejian and his wife, but his and his wife's second-hand direct subordinates were only hundreds of people from the world, which were far less powerful than the number of people under the village masters. Ever since I learned that Sun

When Yu was about to come to Jianzhou, some village owners had disagreements with Feng Xuejian and his wife. Feng Xuejian and his wife believed that each village should fully support the new governor, fight the three major forces, completely eliminate them, and restore peace to Jianzhou.

Several village owners believed that the men and horses they had managed to pull up from each village could not be handed over just like that. Besides, they and others did not need to take the initiative and could only rely on the favorable location to defend these villages. Some other village owners also

Undecided and wait and see.

Just yesterday, after learning about the whereabouts of Sun Yu and his entourage, a fierce quarrel broke out between some village owners and Feng Xuejian and his wife. Both sides were at war with each other, and no one was willing to give in.

"Those village owners actually want to imitate the three major forces?" Sun Yu sighed with emotion. These troubled times are different. Several village owners want to hold on to the men and horses in their hands. Is it possible that they also want to occupy the mountain and become the king?

"It's not that ambitious, I just don't want to pay taxes." Qi Wei smiled awkwardly. He and others still knew how much they weighed. Taxes used to be quite heavy, but they didn't pay taxes last year. Each village has tasted the benefits.

"What? That little tax is enough for you to build weapons and armor? Doesn't it mean that you won't be able to eat?" Sun Yu had a headache. These unscrupulous people can't take a long-term view. Do you think you are the same as them?

"Those villages are richer and closer to the north. If we can't do it here, we'll be there in three months.

It's time to run out of food." The farther south a village is, the more refugees it gathers and the more serious the harassment is. Some villages in the north are much more stable. Since they have food, they are more confident. The villages in the south still have hope.

They can help a little, so they don't dare to offend too much.

"Each battalion takes over the defense of the city. The cavalry battalion and the guard battalion will follow me in." Although the leader of Longmen Village surrendered to him, he still had to be more careful. The gate of the village must be guarded by his own people.

...

"Yang Qifeng, we call you big brother because we expect you to lead everyone to live a good life. We are not asking you to hire an uncle to serve you." A rough man shouted with a mace on his shoulder.

"Zhai Leader Yu, I am here for everyone, and I am absolutely selfless. Can you defeat the three major forces? If we really wait for them to fight, it will be too late for you to regret it!" Yang Qifeng shook his head. This is the leader of Yu Village who pulled him out of the mountain in the first place.

But it's all good, but I don't think I'll fall out in the blink of an eye.

"Brother Yang, please forgive me for being rude. You are paying taxes anyway. Why don't you just hand them over to the Western Fujian gang and you won't have to fight." A young man handed over his hand and paid taxes to the governor. He still had to fight and fight for his life. How about that?

Directly join the Western Fujian team.

"You know nothing. Do you know how those villages under the Minxi Gang live?" Yang Qifeng was extremely angry. If the Minxi Gang were good people, why did you drag me out?

"Anyway, you have to make that bullshit governor agree not to impose taxes. We are almost out of food, how can we have the money to pay taxes?" The young man said with a look of indifference.

"Since ancient times, it is natural to farm and pay taxes. Otherwise, where will the military supplies come from? We are currently in a difficult situation. Your Excellency understands, but we must not use this to negotiate with you. Wouldn't it become a threat?" Yang Qifeng naturally refused. If he took this with him,

If the conditions are gone, how can I meet Sun Yu? He is the legitimate son of the Duke of the country, and he is both civil and military. It is not easy to come to Jianzhou.

"Da~da~da~" The sound of horse hooves came, and everyone in the room suddenly became quiet.

"Stop!" A guard leader saw Sun Yu and his party and rushed to stop him. He was not from Longmen Village, so he didn't need to worry about Qi Wei, the leader of Longmen Village who kept waving his hands behind him.

"Noisy!" Tyrannosaurus shook the reins, charged forward, and struck the guard in the chest with a hammer.

The guard held the iron bar across his face and took the blow forcefully.

There was a "bang", the bravery of the tiger, coupled with the horsepower, this guard could not bear it, and he was immediately smashed out with a stick.

"Surround me up." Sun Yu waved his hand, and Bai Yutang had already taken care of it. They were just some village leaders, but they still wanted to overthrow the world.

"Here!" The eighteen-year-old boy immediately led the cavalry and surrounded the house.

"Sir, please come inside!" Qi Wei bowed and asked Sun Yu to come in.

"If a gentleman doesn't stand behind a dangerous wall, let them all come out." Sun Yu waved his hand, knowing what was inside, he rashly went in to seek death.

"Young man Yang Qifeng has met the adults."

"I, Ye Luoxue, have met you, sir."

Yang Qifeng and Ye Luoxue, who were inside the house, heard the noise and came out to see it was Sun Yu. They quickly bowed and saluted, looking ashamed.

"I know everything, you two come over. Those behind me are willing to take my lead and come together. For those who are stubborn, I will give you a chance. Go back to the stronghold to prepare!" Sun Yu rubbed the hilt of his sword and used it with help.

The slightest chill from Tianshu Sword suppressed the murderous intention in his heart. After the previous battle, Sun Yu felt that his murderous intention was getting stronger and stronger, and he had to restrain himself. He did not come to Jianzhou to kill people.
