It was mid-April in a blink of an eye.

As for Zhao Yu's side, the relationship between Guo Da and Niu Heng and him continued to ferment, and the new "Iron Triangle" became increasingly stable.

It is obvious that Guo Da and Niu Heng are increasingly dissatisfied with Yang Tong's re-use of the faction, and the gaps and differences between the two sides are getting bigger and bigger.

The Jingnv, who Zhao Yu was most concerned about, was practicing swordsmanship during this period, and he was even more diligent and harder than him. Even Chen Cai praised Jingnv, saying that in a few years, he might not be the opponent of Jingnv.

Although it is a little bit humid, it is enough to prove that Jingnv is indeed a bit talented in this regard.

Sometimes when Zhao Yu looked at the quiet girl dancing the sword outside the house, he couldn't help feeling dazed.

The quiet girl Qishu...

When his mother Zhou named Jingnu that name, I'm afraid she would never dream of the quiet little girl in her eyes one day holding a sharp sword and learning good sword skills.

Of course, Zhao Yu didn't dare to joke with Jingnu for this matter.

A few days ago, he said that his original intention was to tease Jingnu. Unexpectedly, Jingnu's eyes turned red immediately after hearing this, and she was crying sadly. Zhao Yu spent a lot of energy to coax Jingnu.

At that time, Zhao Yu realized that Jingnu was in a resistant heart. After all, Zhou, who regarded as a mother as a mother, once taught her how to be an excellent wife, but she had never taught her to hold a sword and kill people. From the moment Jingnu lifted the sword, she no longer dared to say the word "mother" referring to Zhou.

This also encouraged Zhao Yu to implement his final plan as soon as possible: get rid of Yang Tong and master the Heihu Village!

Zhao Yu has repeatedly considered how to get rid of Yang Tong in the past few days.

It is certain to kill someone by borrowing a knife, but the question is which knife to borrow? This is a question worth pondering.

He now has a knife in his hand, a knife called Chen Zu.

Two days ago, he went to see Chen Zu again and made a routine proposal to let Chen Zu belong to Heihu Village. At that time, Chen Zu neither refused nor agreed. He just looked at him with a scrutiny and smiled, his smile a little strange.

Zhao Yu could probably guess what Chen Zu was laughing at. He was laughing at Yang Tong. Zhou Hu, who was a think tank in Yang Tong, actually conspired with him to take his life.

At the same time, Chen Zu probably wanted to see how far he, Zhao Yu could do.

Therefore, Chen Zu did not refuse like before, but he did not agree. After all, Zhao Yu could not provide anything that made him nod and agree.

But this is enough, at least for now. Chen Zu's attitude shows that he is likely to be Zhao Yu's knife.

But this knife is not easy to cut off Yang Tong's head. After all, Yang Tong is not stupid, and now the leaders of the camp around Yang Tong are not stupid. How could it be so easy to believe Chen Zu?

So Chen Zu's knife is at most a candidate.

In addition to Chen Zu, Zhao Yu also has another choice, with the officers and soldiers of Kunyang.

Oh, not Magay.

To be fair, judging from Magai's previous behavior, he was unwilling to be an insider in the Heihu Village, but in general, he still surrendered. Just like when he attacked the Heihu Village last time, Magai himself never personally went to fight to kill the thief. This is incredible for a county lieutenant who is good at force.

Therefore, unless Yang Tong is left alone in front of Ma Gai, Ma Gai should not dare to really attack Yang Tong. Unless Ma Gai makes up his mind to be ruined and be retaliated against by Heihu Village, he will also eradicate Yang Tong and his gang.

This matter is actually easy to judge, because according to human nature, if Magai chooses to die with Heihu Village, he will definitely ask someone to settle his wife and children elsewhere. Therefore, as long as he sees whether Magai's wife and children are still in Kunyang County, he can guess Magai's attitude very likely.

But judging from the news sent by the eyeliner, Magai did not send his wife and children elsewhere. It can be seen that he did not make a decision to die with Heihu Village. At best, he was a slanderous disobedience to Heihu Village, just like a child who was stubborn and could not shake Heihu Village.

What Zhao Yu really liked was the head-catcher Ishihara, who was under Magai.

According to news from the eyeliner after the New Year, Ishihara recruited a group of strong men in Kunyang County at the end of last year, with a small number of only 300 people, but daily training was no exception, even last winter.

According to Heihu Village, people sent to inquire, this captain named Ishihara was originally a ranger. After last spring, he and his four companions were preparing to go to Ye County. When he passed by Kunyang County, it happened that Kunyang County recruited militias to attack Heihu Village. With the idea of ​​earning a bounty, Ishihara and his four companions joined the crusade army, but they never thought that one of them would sacrifice.

In order to avenge his companions, Ishihara and his remaining three companions joined Magai's command and made up their minds to eliminate the Black Tiger Village.

Given Magai's relationship, Yang Tong and Guo Da didn't care much about Ishihara, but Zhao Yu became interested in Ishihara.

Because as far as he knows, Ishihara was recruited by the local army in Jiangxia and participated in the fight against the rebels. Therefore, although he was a ranger, he was also familiar with the style and tactics of the army. Such a person must not be regarded as an ordinary captain.

Considering that Ishihara had a great hatred for the Heihu Village, Zhao Yu was also wondering whether he could use him as a knife to get rid of Yang Tong.

But if you want to use Ishihara's hand to kill Yang Tong, you must first solve a prerequisite, that is, you have to let Yang Tong go into battle personally. If Yang Tong hides in the Heihu Village and does not come out, how could Zhao Yu ask Ishihara to kill Yang Tong?

Could it be that the entire main village was sacrificed?

Although it is not impossible to sacrifice the entire main village, at least it is necessary to ensure that Ishihara kills Yang Tong. If the main village is gone and Yang Tong is not dead, what is he trying to do?

Fortunately, this prerequisite is not difficult to solve, just let Chen Mo and Wang Qing show their spotlight.

Especially Wang Qing.

Unlike Chen Mo who is relatively calm, Wang Qing is very tempted and forgets himself once he is proud. Even Yang Tong doesn't take Yang Tong seriously. Considering that Chen Mo and Wang Qing are holding Yang Tong's handle in their hands, Yang Tong dares not be slandering them. Therefore, as long as Zhao Yu finds ways to make Wang Qing show off and creates a situation similar to "highly merits and overwhelms the master", Yang Tong will naturally not be indifferent and will definitely try every means to overshadow Wang Qing's limelight. At that time, Zhao Yu will have the opportunity to plot against Yang Tong and let Yang Tong die in the hands of Ishihara and others.

But in this way, the problem arises again. If you want to secretly help Chen Mo and Wang Qing and let the two show their stolen things, the enemy officers and soldiers will definitely suffer heavy losses. How can you still have the energy to continue to fight against the Heihu Village?

Wait for another year?

Zhao Yu can't afford to wait.

Therefore, according to this idea, the scale of Kunyang's officers and soldiers' attack on Heihu Village must be large, because in this way, Zhao Yu can let go and secretly help Chen Mo and Wang Qing attack the officers and soldiers, and force Yang Tong to go into battle personally.

But Kunyang County has only a few places and only a few people. How can we stimulate Kunyang County to expand the scale of the expedition?

Zhao Yu thought about it and decided to attack the Luye Freemason!

Nowadays, although the Luye Freemasonry, which was under the control of Lu Kuang, is far less prosperous than when he was in charge of Zhao Yu, it still controls about half of the commercial affairs in Runan, Kunyang, Yexian and other places.

As long as Zhao Yu persuades Yang Tong to target the Luye Freemason, Lu Kuang will definitely help Kunyang with all his strength and try to wipe out the Heihu Village in one fell swoop.

『This is really...』

Zhao Yu shook his head with a wry smile.

He created the Luye Freemason, and Heihu Village was his team in the future. In order to eliminate Yang Tong, he had to stimulate the Luye Freemason to attack the Heihu Village. Think about it carefully, this is really ironic.

Unfortunately, this is the only way.

After all, in Kunyang, even Ma Gai, who was the county magistrate, had gradually surrendered. It was really difficult for Zhao Yu to have too great hope for Kunyang County, so he could only rely on Luye Masonic.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yu immediately ran to instigate Yang Tong.

He said to Yang Tong: "Master of the Dazhai Village, my Heihu Village is now kind enough to the caravans passing by at the foot of our mountain. However, those merchants on the surface were timid and made an agreement with us, but behind their backs, they secretly helped Kunyang County to attack us. We must give a warning! ... It just so happened that the village was preparing to build a branch village recently. It was short of money. It would be better to double the money to warn Luye and the Freemasons."

When Yang Tong heard this, he deeply agreed.

At that time, Zhang Feng and Chu Jiao dissuaded Yang Tong: "No...... We are now drawing 20% ​​of the past caravans, which is already very heavy. If we double the draw 40%, it will definitely completely anger the Luye Freemasons. This chamber of commerce is very powerful in Runan, Xiangcheng, Kunyang and Yexian areas. If we completely anger them, we may force them to persuade the other counties to help Kunyang encircle us. This is a way to cause disaster."

Hearing this, Yang Tong couldn't help but hesitate.

Seeing this, Zhao Yu smiled and said, "It seems that if you can draw 20% of the Luye Freemasons, otherwise you should not even draw 20% of the caravans? Most of the past caravans at the foot of our mountain are under the name of Luye Freemasons. Not to mention drawing 20% ​​of the money, if you draw 20% of the merchants with a stingy manner of seeking profit, you will offend them a lot. Since you cannot turn enemies into friends, then just make them surrender!"

Zhang Feng and the other camp leaders were speechless, but Chu Jiao looked at Zhao Yu in confusion, but said nothing.

In this situation, Yang Tong finally listened to Zhao Yu's suggestion and decided to warn the Luye Freemason, but he was not as ruthless as doubled, just adding 10%, which is 30%.

But 30% is also great, not to mention that Yang Tong also wrote a letter to warn Lu Kuang according to Zhao Yu's suggestion.

As expected, as Zhao Yu guessed, Lu Kuang was furious after receiving Yang Tong's warning letter.

I think he is a Luye Masonic chamber of commerce that spans several counties. Even the county magistrates dare not offend them easily. A group of bandits dare to humiliate them like this?

A few days later, Lu Kuang summoned many merchants under his chamber of commerce, and the merchants made an unanimous decision: Heihu Village must be eradicated!

But how to eradicate the Heihu Village?

Kunyang County alone may not be strong enough.

After thinking about it, Lu Kuang said that he could only go to the county government to visit Mrs. Mao. When the old county magistrate Mao Gong had passed away, he could only take action with the support of Mrs. Mao.

However, when he visited Mrs. Mao with generous gifts, he unexpectedly learned that Mrs. Mao was meeting guests in the middle hall of the Houya.

Meeting?

who?

Lu Kuang didn't care and asked the county soldiers to report: "Please tell the old lady, it is really an urgent matter. Please be sure to see Lu."

After he begged him, the county soldier informed him, and after a moment he led Lu Kuang to the middle hall of the Houya.

At that time, Lu Kuang saw that Mrs. Mao was talking to a young man in his thirties in the house. The young man was smiling and said to the old man: "Don't worry, Mrs. Mao has been intimate for many years. Although my adoptive father is now driving troops out of the border and not in the court, Mr. Mao entrusted his death to me, how dare I be neglected... This matter is covered by my nephew. I, Zhang Jing, will definitely find out the truth about the Hou family in Luyang Township!"

『Zhang...Zhang Jing?!』

Lu Kuang stared at the young man in horror. The young man also turned around and looked over. His sharp eyes were slightly confused, making Lu Kuang unconsciously take a step back.

"Chen Zhong of the dynasty, Chen Taishi's adopted son, Chen Jun Wuhu, Zhang Jing?!"
