Immediately, Zhao Yu sent someone to invite four leaders, Chen Mo, Wang Qing, Chu Yan, and Liu Heimu. In addition, Guo Da, Chu Jiao and Niu Heng who were in Zhao Yu's house at this moment, all the big leaders in the main village were present.

Unlike everyone else who knew that things were amazing, Wang Qing still had the unruly attitude he usually had. After sitting down, he turned his head to ask Zhao Yu with a smile, "I heard that there were 5,000 Yingchuan County soldiers coming down from the mountain. This is really a great scene. The leader summoned us to discuss how to disband?"

Hearing this, except for Liu Hei's eyes, the rest of the people frowned and showed an unhappy look. Niu Heng even shouted angrily: "Wang Qing, what are you talking nonsense?"

Zhao Yu raised his hand to stop Niu Heng's anger and asked Wang Qing calmly: "Does the Zuo Commander hope to disband? Is it possible that the Zuo Commander has a better place?"

“…”

Wang Qing was stunned for a moment, hugged the back of his head with a little disgusted expression, and sat in the chair with no sitting position, but he did not talk to him again.

It can be seen that he just asked casually.

He has such a personality.

After revealing Wang Qing's unfunctory joke, Zhao Yu looked around at everyone present and said seriously: "The danger is right in front of us. I think we should not waste our time, it is better to get into the topic as soon as possible..."

Everyone present nodded and said yes.

Seeing this, Zhao Yu continued, "There were more than 2,000 officers and soldiers at the foot of the mountain, but now there are 5,000 more. It is becoming increasingly difficult to repel the opponent's attack; but even in the current situation, Ye County Magistrate Yang Ding wants to destroy my Black Tigers, I can only say that he is thinking too much." He looked around at everyone, and added with a chuckling, "If we insist on escaping, can he still stop us? It's just that he has lost a main village, and it's not that it has happened."

Hearing this, Guo Da and Chu Jiao smiled bitterly, but Chen Mo, Chu Yan and Niu Heng nodded and agreed. The only two who did not express their opinions were Liu Heimu and the other was Wang Qing with one leg raised.

Unlike Liu Heimu who was paying attention to the people and Zhao Yu's expressions, Wang Qing still looked careless. He leaned his seat and supported it with only two legs of the chair. After listening to Zhao Yu's words, he said with no interest: "Say less about this, I just want to know if you have a plan to get rid of the enemy? If there is no, I think we can pack up and disband. We can run a few more strands, and we will probably escape."

After looking at Wang Qing who was shattering the situation, Niu Heng's face became even more annoyed. If it weren't for Zhao Yu raising his hand in time to signal, he might have had an attack.

"I don't have a plan to retreat to the enemy, but I'm generally sure to save my life." While appeaseing Niu Heng, Zhao Yu chuckled and replied to Wang Qing. Then, he said seriously: "But I need the support of everyone here... For the sake of the current plan, we can only overcome this difficulty by uniting. If we have different intentions, we will definitely die."

"A life-saving strategy?"

Wang Qing glanced at Zhao Yu sideways, and after reaching out to touch his chin with fun, he said seriously: "How sure are you?"

"Ninety percent." Zhao Yu replied calmly.

“…”

Everyone present looked at Zhao Yu in surprise. Even Wang Qing put down his raised legs, then pulled the chair closer to the square table in front of him, and chuckled and said, "I believe it, tell me your plans."

"No hurry."

Zhao Yu raised his hand and said, "The most urgent task is to find a way to stabilize the hearts of the people in the village... Yang Ding is very smart. He believes that attacking our village will inevitably lead to heavy losses. Therefore, he invited the soldiers of Yingchuan County to put pressure on us, and then sent people to shout out the mountain, asking for forgiveness and rewards. It is nothing more than to crack down on the morale of my brothers in the village, waiting for the village to collapse. We have discussed with Brother Guo and Uncle Chu. The most urgent task is to find a way to stabilize the hearts of the people. And I need unswerving support for you here."

After saying that, he looked at everyone present and waited for everyone to reply.

At this time, Chen Mo took the lead and said, "I have no objection."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Yan also shook his head and said, "I have no objection."

After the two, Liu Heimu and Wang Qing nodded in agreement. As for Guo Da, Chu Jiao and Niu Heng, they did not need to express their opinions - after all, Zhao Yu, the first two, had already discussed with them, and Niu Heng, he must support Zhao Yu.

After reaching an agreement on the opinions, Zhao Yu said seriously: "Since that's the case, please go to Juyi Hall together. I will appease the brothers in the village in the open space in front of Juyi Hall."

"good."

A moment later, Zhao Yu put on the tiger mask, took Jingnv, Niu Heng and the others to the wooden steps of Juyi Hall, while Chen Mo, Guo Da and others were summoning the brothers in the village.

After glanced at the black tigers who were gradually gathering in the open space in front of Juyi Hall, Zhao Yu sighed secretly, feeling a little uncomfortable.

When he was in trouble in Luyang, he and Jingnv were only eleven years old. After five years of planning, he mastered a team that obeyed him and a county town called Kunyang.

Even Zhao Yu was a little satisfied with this because he laid a solid foundation.

But after all the calculations, Zhao Yu never expected that the person who replaced Mao Gong as the county magistrate of Ye County was Yang Ding, who had a very unusual status. Moreover, Yang Ding, as soon as he took office, targeted him as a member of the Black Tigers. Not only did he organize a coalition force in the five counties to attack, but he even invited county soldiers from Yingchuan County, which was of great power.

Kunyang... I'm afraid he's going to give up.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yu couldn't help but clench his fists.

After all, he spent a lot of effort to create today's situation. Suddenly, the situation changed drastically and he was forced to give up the foundation of Kunyang. It is not difficult to guess the anger in his heart at this moment.

It was this anger that made Zhao Yu feel ruthless: Since you, Yang Ding, don’t give him a way out, just break the sky! At worst, I can take people to the rebels of Jingchu!

At this point, Zhao Yu simply gave up.

Suddenly, his hands held Zhao Yu's clenched fists.

It was a Jingnv, a Jingnv who was wearing the same mask as him. Although she did not see Zhao Yu's expression, she could feel that the person she loved was in an extremely bad mood at this moment.

"The people in the village gathered." She whispered.

Zhao Yu turned around and noticed that the brothers in the village had gathered in the open space in front of him.

He gently patted Jingnv's back with his left hand, signaling her to let go. Then, Zhao Yu took two steps forward and looked around at the black tigers gathered in the open space in front of him.

After a rough calculation, there were almost more than 500 people - excluding the brothers responsible for keeping watch, almost all the combat power available in the village is here.

Maybe Chen Mo, Wang Qing and others had any considerations. When these people were lined up, there were new people who had just entered the village, and both sides were old people in the village. It was precisely for this reason that Zhao Yu saw Xu Bai and Wang Pin in front of the lineup in the middle.

At this time, Xu Bai and Wang Pin were also secretly observing Zhao Yu, speculating what actions the leader of the Black Tiger Thieves would do next.

Just as the two of them were guessing, Zhao Yu suddenly spoke. He said in a hoarse voice, "I guess you have heard of it?" About half an hour ago, there were officers and soldiers at the foot of the mountain calling out that they had received support from five thousand Yingchuan County soldiers and persuaded us to surrender. In addition, they also offered rewards to the big leaders in the villages... Haha, who is jealous of those rewards?"

Hearing this, some whispers rang out in the crowd in the open space, mainly new people who had just entered the village, but they were in a mess and couldn't hear what they were saying.

But there are also unmoved people who have entered the village, such as Xu Bai and Wang Qing, because they saw the "Four Fierce Generals of the Black Tiger Thieves".

While Zhao Yu was talking, Chen Mo and Chu Yan stood at the steps one left and one right, scanning the people in the open space with a cold expression. Not far behind them, Niu Heng stood leaning against his arms, just a few steps away from Zhao Yu.

A little further away, Wang Qing sat on the steps, shaking his legs like a child's heart.

Chen Mo, Niu Heng, Wang Qing, Chu Yan, and the most brave people in Heihu Village are these four people. With these four people present, who ordinary people dares to act rashly?

At least Xu Bai and Wang Pin did not have the courage to do so. They had no doubt that even if they joined together, Chen Mo, who had defeated them several times in the competition, could easily pick their bodies on the spear blade, not to mention many old men from the Black Tiger Village.

Just when the two secretly despised Zhao Yu's so-called ridicule, they suddenly heard Zhao Yu say seriously: "Don't be jealous. There are indeed many rewards worth tens of thousands of dollars, but it is just empty words. The purpose of the officers and soldiers shouting out these rewards is nothing more than to alienate us and cause civil strife so that they can easily break through our village. As for whether this promise is credible...hum."

Zhao Yu chuckled and shook his head, then said, "If I say something, brothers can guess whether the promises of the officers and soldiers are credible... I believe you all know the Brotherhood in Kunyang, right? That's right, it was founded by me, Heihuchuang..."

!!

Xu Bai and Wang Pin suddenly looked up, and their faces were filled with shock when they looked at Zhao Yu.

Behind the Kunyang Brotherhood is the Black Tiger Thieves. They had known this for a long time, but they never expected that the leader of the Black Tiger Thieves would be announced in public, as if they were not worried about the news leaking...

...Arrogant! Arrogant! There is no way to be a king.

Xu Bai muttered to himself.

At the same time, on the side of Juyitang's big house, Guo Dayi frowned and murmured with a worried look: "What is Ahu talking about this?"

As if he had guessed Guo Da’s idea, Chu Jiao said casually: "It’s okay to say it out loud. Now there are many people in Kunyang County who know this, but they don’t dare to act rashly due to public opinion... Why hide what others know very well from their own people?"

“With that being said…”

Guo Da was still a little hesitant, but since Zhao Yu had already made this point, he could only let him go.

At this time, Zhao Yu was still telling everyone: "I ordered Chen Cai to establish a brotherhood, not to have any ideas about Kunyang, but to leave us a way out, a way out of the darkness and turn to the light... Although the days in the village were leisurely and free, I couldn't raise my head when I said it, and I had no face to face my ancestors. Therefore, I ordered Chen Cai to establish a brotherhood and release his kindness to Kunyang County. Kunyang County received my kindness and had negotiated with me about the recruitment. Because of the great relationship, I decided to wait and see for the time being... But who would have thought that in the case of my Black Tigers not harming the people, disturbing the people, and not offending the county town, some people still regard us as thorns in the side, and intend to clear our Black Tigers and make a name for themselves... I once heard that if people bully me, I will take a step back; if they bully me, they will retreat again; now there is a cliff behind me, and there is no way out, so I will fight for the life and death of those who bully me!"

Maybe he was infected by Zhao Yu's tone, and the people in the open space also responded angrily.

Among them, Xu Bai and Wang Pin looked at each other when they heard this.

The reason why the leader of the Black Tiger Thieves Zhou Hu created the Brotherhood was that he wanted to abandon the darkness and turn to the light and leave a way out for the brothers in the village?!

The two vaguely understood why when the Black Tiger Thief made a comeback last year, Kunyang County did not send people to encircle and suppress it.

At this time, Zhao Yu raised his hands and pressed down, signaling the excited crowd to calm down. Then he continued, "I know that many brothers were confused by the shouts of the officers and soldiers, thinking that they could be safe, but how could they have a complete egg under the so-called collapse of the nest? Once the mountain village is defeated by the officers and soldiers, the brothers will go their separate ways, and the officers and soldiers will no longer have any scruples. In the meantime, even if they do not keep their promises, what can you do with them?

I, Zhou Hu, hope that all brothers will not be tempted by the rewards from the officers and soldiers, and will unswervingly follow Zhou. Zhou will also protect the brothers. If any brother is unfortunately captured by the officers and soldiers, I, Zhou Hu, will definitely find ways to rescue him. If any brother is unfortunately killed, Zhou will definitely take revenge ten times. This is the loyalty and righteousness of you and me, and it is the only way to resist the officers and soldiers.

On the contrary, if the Heihu Village is gone, what can I do if some of you get a reward of tens of thousands of yuan? Can it be spent for a lifetime? But I, Zhou Hu, can make a promise and will take care of all my brothers for the rest of my life! As long as I, Zhou Hu, follow me, Zhou Hu, share wealth and honor with him, and never leave me!... As the leader you follow, is it that my Zhou Hu's promise just the promise of those officers and soldiers? Remember, soldiers are incompatible! The so-called "pardonation of crimes" by the officers and soldiers today is nothing more than a false trick, because as long as I, Zhou Hu, and as long as I am united, they will not be sure to defeat us! Therefore, they have to use tricks..."

As Zhao Yu said, the crowd in the open space started to talk again.

Seeing this, Zhao Yu raised his voice more and more: "Five thousand Yingchuan County soldiers... I know that many brothers were scared by this group of people, but I want to say that it doesn't matter at all. There were more than 2,000 officers and soldiers in the five counties at the foot of the mountain, but the brothers were not panicked. Why? Does anyone firmly believe that our five or six hundred people can defeat more than 2,000 people? In fact, I am not sure. The only thing we can do is to use the mountain to defend, but if the other party does not hesitate.

If the price of casualties is to force the mountain, we can only retreat in shame and wait for the opportunity to come back. After all, I always think that the lives of brothers are far more important than a copycat... We can't win two thousand officers and soldiers, even if we add five thousand Yingchuan County soldiers? No matter two thousand officers and soldiers or five thousand county soldiers, our tactics will not change. We will all be able to prevent them if they cannot. In other words, there is no big difference between the two."

Hearing these words, the crowds in the open space were talking loudly and coldly.

Most people think that Zhao Yu's explanation is wrong, but what's wrong is that they can't tell me. I feel that what Zhao Yu said makes sense: even two thousand officers and soldiers can't beat them, but if there are five thousand county soldiers, what's the difference? There are tactics that can't be defeated horizontally and vertically.

Thinking of this, some people gradually relaxed their hearts, and some even laughed heartlessly. The originally tense and solemn atmosphere also eased.

Seeing this scene, Xu Bai and Wang Pin were shocked.

The two of them were simply incredible. Zhou Hu used a fallacy that felt something was wrong no matter how he thought about it, and successfully eased the solemn atmosphere, making everyone present relaxed a little.

However, Xu Bai and Wang Pin couldn't say anything about it for a while.

At this time, Zhao Yu looked around at everyone present and continued, "Of course, I know that a few words may not make some people feel at ease, or to be more precise, these people lack trust in me, Zhou Hu. Although they don't say it, they have made up their minds to escape, or even surrender to the officers and soldiers. I don't blame them for this. After all, everyone has their own ambitions. Here I only hope that those brothers who want to leave will quietly go down the mountain and leave after night tonight, and I will not send anyone to stop them. However, if anyone turns against each other when leaving and uses the heads of the old brothers to please the officers and soldiers in exchange for bounty, Zhou Hu swears here that he will kill this beast in his life and eat it alive!... I, Zhou Hu, is not so easy to die, and the brothers who follow me are not so easy to die. Therefore, I advise those who are preparing to leave, don't do something that misleads others and themselves, so as not to regret it in the future... Don't say that you don't make any mistakes!"

After a pause, Zhao Yu said again: "If you have the chance to meet the brothers who have left today, for the sake of the old brothers, I, Zhou Hu, may also invite them to drink a bowl of wine, but that's all. From now on, everyone will have their destiny!... This is all about words and love is all about them."

After saying that, he called out softly: "Great Commander."

Chen Mo understood, and after nodding, he clapped his hands and said, "Okay, let's all be separated. Remember the words of the great leader in his heart. Brothers who want to leave will leave on their own after nightfall today. Don't hurt your old brothers because of the bounty, so as not to mislead others or yourself; brothers who don't plan to leave will be the same."

Looking at Chen Mo's departure back, the gathered black tigers dispersed one after another.

At this time, Zhao Yu had returned to his house and sent someone to call Wang Qing and Chu Yan.

After a while, when Wang Qing and Chu Yan came to the house, Zhao Yu said seriously: "Let's just calm the hearts of the people in the village for the time being, but this is not enough to retreat to the enemy. I have something to let you and you do. I wonder if you dare not?"

"Let's hear it." Wang Qing said casually

Zhao Yu looked upright and said in a low voice: "I want you and the two of you to lead your confidant brothers to Runan and Xiangcheng County. Taking advantage of the fact that the county soldiers were outside, they mingled into the city, abducted the county magistrate, and burned the county government!"

Speaking of this, he glanced at the two people in a daze and said in a deep voice: "Since you can't escape from each other, you'll just make a big fuss and it's out of control!...Dare you dare?!"

“…”

Even Wang Qing and Chu Yan were shocked by Zhao Yu's words for a moment.

Immediately, different degrees of interest appeared in the eyes of the two.
