Chapter 355 Here we go again
King Dongshan: "How about I lend you the captured prisoners to repair the city wall first, and then..."
Shopkeeper Shang: "Alas! I can only agree to this for Shopkeeper Weidong's sake. It's agreed that the prisoners will be given to us."
King of Dongshan: Eh? I don't think that's what I meant. Don't leave. Wait a minute. Hi!
Manager Shang slipped away quickly.
Weidong: Hmm? What are you talking about?
King Dongshan looked at Weidong aggrievedly, his eyes showing: I seem to have been tricked by him, why don’t you help me?
Wei Dong rarely reached out his hand and touched Xie Jiu's head soothingly.
King Dongshan's eyes lit up and curved into crescents with joy, which looked very beautiful.
Mu Feng: It's over! The master has fallen.
When Wei Dong saw his bitter face turn into a smiling one, he felt inexplicably relieved.
He still liked to see Xie Jiu happy.
Xie Jiu should be smart, playful, naughty, and very good friends with him.
Even though he knew that there might be something wrong with Xie Jiu in front of him, looking at his face, Wei Dong still found it hard to be cruel and treat him coldly.
What's more, Xie Jiu is now very devoted to him.
And when he was cold to Xie Jiu, he was not in a good mood either!
He shouldn't have taken his anger out on others. Even though he was in a mess inside, he couldn't bear to see Xie Jiu being wronged.
He could understand Manager Shang's approach, but this was different from Xie Jiu's position. Everyone served their own master, and it was hard to say who was right or wrong.
If it really comes down to it, the shopkeeper Weidong and the monk are brothers in the same trench.
So, he couldn't say anything except touching Xie Jiu's stood up hair.
King Dongshan was very happy because Weidong took the initiative to show his goodwill.
He no longer had to worry about the trick played by Shopkeeper Shang. If he refused to compromise, how could a merchant like him force his business to buy or sell from him?
It's just that he didn't argue with him for Weidong's sake.
King Dongshan discovered Weidong’s weakness. It seemed that Weidong would feel distressed whenever he was wronged.
Oh my! Wei Dong, who was so soft-hearted towards him, made him even happier.
Hehe! He likes it very much!
The private army in the mountains eventually rushed towards the Panlong Mountain commercial district.
General Zhang was determined to make a desperate move. He asked his deputy general to gather the troops and make a statement.
He confessed that there was not a single grain of food in the camp, and he didn't know what had happened to the supply, but there was nothing.
If you want to survive, you must attack Panlong Mountain nearby. It is rich there and you can get whatever you want!
The soldiers had anticipated this. For days, even porridge was not enough to eat, and the cooks in the camp had to peel tree bark to make soup to fill their stomachs.
Now that the general has said so, the only way for us to stay in the camp is to starve to death.
Then what is there to hesitate about? Everyone wants to live.
Since there is a way to survive in Panlong Mountain, let’s go there!
When choosing between suffering yourself and letting others suffer, you will undoubtedly choose to let others suffer!
Finally, General Zhang personally led the army out in full force and all went down the mountain. It looked quite spectacular from a distance!
Panlong Mountain had received the news long ago and was ready for battle.
The garrison led by General Fan had already climbed up the outer wall of the fortress and ambushed a group of archers and swordsmen at the battlements.
The guards of Panlong Mountain hid in a dark room between several battlements and could observe the enemy situation outside through the air vents.
There are corridors connecting the dark rooms, which allows for change of guard and sneak attacks.
This is also the control room of the mechanism. The distance between the outer wall and the inner wall of the fortress is quite wide, and there is a lot of stuff inside.
The various mechanisms are arranged in an interlocking manner. This is a combination of the mechanisms in the store, which have been expanded and improved and installed in the inner walls.
Shi Yi’s idea is: using all means to protect the personal safety of people in Panlong Mountain is the top priority.
No matter whether it is a black cat or a white cat, a good cat is one that can catch mice!
However, when there are too many mice and they are too powerful, extraordinary measures can be taken, but the premise is that the cats must not be harmed.
What's more, the situation is different this time. She urgently needs a large number of captives to contribute to the construction of Panlong Mountain, so killing them is not the goal.
The goal is not only to defeat the enemy, but also to capture as many alive as possible.
To achieve this is somewhat of a challenge!
The imperial court would certainly kill without mercy any private army, especially those that plotted rebellion.
But in Shi Yi's heart, these people cannot make their own decisions at all. Don't they want to live a peaceful life?
If we have to kill, we should kill those who are truly capable of rebellion, that is, the emperor’s brothers who are his enemies!
Why would ordinary soldiers rebel? They are just pawns at the mercy of others.
Shi Yi didn't want to get involved in these things at all. Shangguan Jin also knew some inside information through his family connections and secretly exchanged information with Shi Yi.
Shi Yi was not interested in who was plotting a rebellion or who wanted to be the emperor. She did not want to be a follower of the emperor, nor did she want to be the emperor's running dog. She just wanted to do business peacefully.
But if someone wants to plot against her or his family property, she will fight back resolutely.
Although the private army has a large number of people, it is still unknown who will win!
So what if you have status and position?
If you dare to plot against her, be prepared to pay the price!
No matter who he is!
She will never be a soft persimmon and let others bully her!
She would rather be a thorny durian, smelly and prickly!
Stick to your own personality, regardless of other people's lives.
You deserve to be stabbed to death if you mess with her!
The best way to avoid getting into trouble is to stay away from troublesome people.
Normally, they did this and kept a distance from officials in the court and did not have close relationships with them.
Today, this principle has not changed.
However, things are different now. Now others have reached the gate of Panlong Mountain. How can they not fight back and let themselves be slaughtered?
That must not be possible!!
When it’s time to show off his muscles, Shi Yi is not afraid!
Otherwise, whoever is jealous will come here and take a bite, what will happen then? !
By the time General Zhang led his troops to Panlong Mountain, his men were already starving, and were staring at the gate of Panlong Mountain with green eyes.
It seemed as if I had seen through the door the steamed buns, the braised pork, the big roast chicken…
The sound of swallowing saliva could be heard constantly. Everyone was able to persevere because of the spirit of occupying Panlong Mountain and having enough food.
Now the delicious food is inside, separated by a suspension bridge!
There is a deep moat under the gate, and a suspension bridge connects the gate to the road outside.
However, now this suspension bridge has been raised high and is hanging in the air.
The private soldiers standing outside the door were dumbfounded!
How can I get through this?
Looking at the turbid river water, no one dares to try to swim across.
Fortunately, they are not completely helpless.
General Zhang ordered his men to cut down trees on the mountain and build several simple ladders.
Their vanguard army can put ladders above the moat, climb up the city wall, lower the drawbridge, and then let the army enter the city through the gate.
By then, Panlong Mountain will not be left for them to plunder? !
The idea is wonderful!
The reality is very harsh!!
