After leaving Qingzhou, Zhou Chong and his team went east and soon arrived at Weihai Guard again. As a result, when the commander Meng heard the news that Zhou Chong was coming, he was immediately scared and ran out to greet him for several miles, because Zhou Chong's identity had already been

Unlike in the past, Emperor Zhengde's emphasis on Zhou Chong will not be mentioned for the time being. In addition, one of the four seas' admirals is to control the coastal garrisons. In other words, as long as Zhou Chong is willing, his Weihai Guard will also be under the jurisdiction of Zhou Chong.

Range, so when he heard the arrival of Zhou Chong, his immediate boss, naturally he had to come and curry favor with him.

Zhou Chong had a good impression of this commander Meng. Although this person was very incompetent as a military officer, the entire Weihai Guard had long been abandoned and had long lost the original function of the Guard, but this person was as

The local officials did a very good job. At least the people in Weihai Guards lived a richer life than other garrisons around them by taking advantage of the port. Although the majority of the port income was taken away by Commander Meng, these officials were ordered to be appointed by the officials.

The people of the garrison also benefited from this.

It is precisely because of this that Zhou Chong deliberately praised the Commander Meng. Of course, after the praise, he did not forget to beat the other party, telling him not to be too greedy, and implying that he was very optimistic about him.

, when there is a chance, he will make suggestions to His Majesty. At that time, he may be promoted to his position, of course, the premise is that he must have made achievements.

Commander Meng was overjoyed about Zhou Chong's hint and said that he would not let down the expectations of the Admiral and would definitely benefit the people in the future, etc.

Zhou Chong stayed in Weihaiwei for two more days. On the third day, he received the news that the fleet that came to pick him up finally arrived. At that moment, they boarded the boat again and headed south with the wind. However, just after Zhou Chong and his group were on the boat.

While leaving Shandong, something big happened in Shandong, and this incident was inseparable from Zhou Chong.

Jinan Prefecture, Shandong Province is surrounded by Mount Tai in the south and the Yellow River in the north. It can be said that it is backed by mountains and water, and it is a rare and good place to go. Among the mountains in the south of Jinan Prefecture, there is a small mountain that looks smooth from a distance but is actually extremely steep.

There is a black stone shaped like an old cow on the top of the hill, and there are camps built by robbers on the hill, so this mountain is called the Black Cow Village.

Speaking of Hei Niuzhai, it's been a year. The south of Jinan City is already mountainous. Whenever the scenery is not good, someone will entrench in the mountains as a thief. This Hei Niuzhai is one of them. It is said that it was in the Tang Dynasty.

At the end of the day, robbers built camps on the top of the mountain. Of course, after so many years, the robbers on the top of the mountain have been replaced countless times. It is precisely because of the Hei Niu Village that has such a long history, so near Jinan, the Hei Niu Village has almost become

Synonym for robbers.

After the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there have been constant natural disasters and man-made disasters in China. Many people cannot survive due to famine, so almost all the robbers in the Hei Niu Village have never been cut off. Although the officers and soldiers have been encircled and suppressed several times, the terrain of the Hei Niu Village is easy to guard.

It was difficult to attack, so I returned several times without success, and later I let it go.

The leader of this generation of Hei Niu Village is named Yang Hu, the Shandong thief who defected to Liu Liu and Qi in history. After he failed to revolt with Bai Ying, he brought his brothers to Jinan near Jinan and later joined Hei.

Niuzhai became the leader, and later there was an internal strife inside the parable, so he took the opportunity to kill several other leaders and became the leader of the Black Niuzhai.

In the Juyi Hall in the middle of the Hei Niu Village, Yang Hu, as the leader, was drinking alone. Although Yang Hu's previous rebellion failed, it inspired his ambitions and he always wanted to find an opportunity to regroup.

When he heard that his former old friends Liu Liu, Liu Qi, Qi Yanming and others rebelled in Bazhou. This made him very excited. He thought that the opportunity he had been waiting for finally came, so he immediately planned to bring his men to Bazhou.

If you join Liu Liu and Liu Qi, and then you will do a big fight with your own abilities, even if you can't become an emperor, it will not be impossible to be a minister or a minister.

Although Yang Hu's idea seems ridiculous, it is the common voice of most rebels in history. Although they know that rebellion will take a lot of risks, they no longer care about anything else when they think about the generous rewards after the rebellion are successful.

As a result, he bet on all his wealth and life, even if he was defeated and died in the end.

Unfortunately, before Yang Hu set off, bad news came from Bazhou, that is, Liu Liu and Liu Qi, who were still vigorous, were killed by Jingyang Bo Shenying, and even Liu.

Liu and Liu and Qi also died on the battlefield, Qi Yanming disappeared, and other old friends also fled to death. It can be said that this rebellion in Bazhou has completely failed.

"Oh, why is Liu Liu and Liu Qi so useless? They have just rebelled for more than two months, but they have been defeated so miserably. If they could hold on for a while, they would definitely be able to kill Shenying after they met me.

!" Yang Hu, who was sitting in the hall, looked up and drank a bowl of wine, sighed and said to himself.

Yang Hu did not feel too sad about the deaths of Liu Liu and Liu Qi and others. Although he had a good relationship with the other party, people like them had long regarded life and death indifferently. In Yang Hu's opinion, Liu

Liu and Liu Qi were so useless that he was wiped out in such a short time, which made him lose another good opportunity to make a comeback.

Thinking of such a good opportunity disappearing in vain, Yang Hu couldn't help but feel a little upset. He picked up the wine pot and drank a few more sips. He is almost fifty years old this year. If he can't find another opportunity to make a comeback,

I'm afraid I can only stay in this small black cattle village and be a robber leader for the rest of my life.

Just as Yang Hu was drinking alone, a small leader suddenly ran into the outside and reported to him: "The boss, there was a man who came down from the mountain. He claimed that he was your brother back then. Because he was wanted by the court, he was desperate, so he came to join the big one.

The head of the family!”

"Oh, my brother back then?" Yang Hu also put down the wine pot when he heard the report. He frowned and recalled. He was born as a singma horse and then rebelled with Bai Ying, so almost all the brothers he knew were wanted by the imperial court.

He was the main criminal, so he couldn't guess who was coming to him for a while.

Since you can't think of it, don't think about it. Yang Hu immediately threw down the wine pot and stood up, and came to the front of the village gate of Hei Niuzhai with the little leader. On the flat ground on the top of the mountain in the entire Hei Niuzhai construction site, the village gate just happened to be right.

The only road up the mountain is extremely narrow. If it is attacked by the officers and soldiers, they only need to prepare enough thunder and stones to make the attacking officers and soldiers suffer heavy casualties and eventually have to return without success.

Yang Hu climbed the gate of Hei Niu Village and looked down. He found a very embarrassed person standing in front of the gate. He saw that the man's hair was messy and his face was dark, which made people feel like he was

I can't see my true face clearly. It's winter now, but the clothes on the man below are unfair and thin, and he has broken a few big holes. He is trembling in the cold wind on the top of the mountain. He is no different from the beggar on the street.

.

Looking at the beggar-like character below, Yang Hu could not recognize the other party's identity no matter what. Just when he was confused, the beggar below also saw Yang Hu on the village gate, which was now dark.

A look of ecstasy appeared on his face, and he shouted loudly: "Brother Yang Hu, don't you recognize Qi anymore?"

Hearing that this person claimed to be surnamed Qi and his voice was very familiar, Yang Hu suddenly recognized the other party's identity. He was overjoyed and shouted: "That's great, it turns out that Brother Qi, you really escaped.

Open the village door quickly to welcome you!”

With Yang Hu's order, the gate of Hei Niu Village slowly opened. At this time, Qi Yanming also ran down from the gate and came to the beggar in person, regardless of the dirty and smelly person's body.

He held the other party's hand excitedly and had a few friendly conversations, then personally welcomed the other party to the mountain village.

This beggar who claimed to be Qi was Qi Yanming who escaped from Bazhou. After climbing over Shizui Cliff, he finally escaped from Bazhou. As he expected, after leaving Bazhou, he wanted him

As expected, it was not as strict as Bazhou, which made him overjoyed and rushed towards Shandong.

Although Qi Yanming's wanted information along the way was not as strict as Bazhou, almost every town had a list of wanted information posted in him, so Qi Yanming did not dare to enter the city along the way. He would sleep in the wild when he was sleepy and hungry

Then he went to some small villages to steal or rob some food. Only then did he arrive in Jinan Prefecture safely. Finally, he inquired from many sources and finally found the Hei Niu Village where Yang Hu was.

After Yang Hu welcomed Qi Yanming to Hei Niu Village, he originally wanted to arrange Qi Yanming to take a shower and change clothes first, but Qi Yanming's thin face showed an embarrassing smile and said, "Brother Yang, I'll tell you, I'm already

I haven’t eaten for two days and two nights, so let’s just let the shower work, so you should get some food for me!”

Yang Hu was also worried when he heard this. He didn't expect Qi Yanming to be so depressed. He used to be a person, but now he has not eaten for several days in order to escape. Thinking of this, Yang Hu immediately made people

Preparing for a banquet, they are all grass-roots people and don’t pay much attention to it. For them, filling their stomachs first is the most important thing, and the rest are all empty.

Soon the wine and food were delivered. Qi Yanming took a quick hand first, then rolled up his sleeves and grabbed the dishes with his hands and stuffed them into his mouth. He was choked after taking a few bites and took a few sips of water and wine.

Then I swallowed it.

Yang Hu looked at Qi Yanming who was eating voraciously, but he was always thinking about the impact of Qi Yanming's arrival on him. Although Qi Yanming is doing a miserable life now, it is a rare opportunity for him. Now Bazhou is rebelling.
