    Chapter 252: Open Recruitment of Spies Mei Niang is not a spy, but Ouyang believes that in such an environment there will always be someone who is a spy.  Ouyang was not sure whether Zhong Xiang would come in person.  But if anyone comes, at least those who come will be Zhong Xiang¡¯s main force, that is, the believers who are not afraid of death and who Zhong Xiang relies on most.  Ouyang doesn¡¯t need to think so much, because someone will think about it.  Ouyang can just concentrate on fighting Mei Niang.  However, Ouyang didn't expect Mei Niang to cry afterwards.  Ouyang asked: "What's wrong?" "It's okay, I just thought that you would have to leave sooner or later." Mei Niang wiped her tears, hugged Ouyang and asked, "Will you still remember me when you leave?" "Of course you will." "  Will you take me away? " "It seems that this Mei Niang is not familiar enough. We are all adults. We don't want to last forever, we just want to have it once.  Alassex education is still very poor.  Ouyang said: "I will give you money, you can go wherever you want, don't stay here." "Why?" "More wolves and less meat." "Disgusting" Ouyang successfully changed the topic. ?¡­ ?What should come will eventually come.  One night in the middle of the night, Mei Niang woke up when she heard some noise. Then she listened carefully to the voice and hurriedly pushed Ouyang: "Enemies, enemies." "Baby, you can't just work without refueling." Ouyang pressed Mei Niang under him with sleepy eyes.  "No," Mei Niang reluctantly stretched out her hand and lit the candle with a weak coal lamp.  "Your body is so beautiful." Ouyang couldn't help but be attracted to Mei Niang under the candlelight, and his hands moved gently to caress her.  "Listen to the sound. Did something happen?" "Sound?" Ouyang pricked up his ears, and sure enough he heard some movement.  In the quiet night, there seemed to be noise in the distance that shouldn't be there.  Ouyang smiled and said: "Some things are like sex. No matter how hard you try, you won't succeed. But when it comes, it will come even if you don't work hard." Mei Niang said anxiously: "Enemies, please stop playing. It seems that there are many people walking.  " Ouyang kissed him and said, "Maybe I will leave tomorrow. " Mei Niang wanted to ask again, but suddenly there was a loud voice and fire outside the window.  Then there was a chorus of shouts: "The Northwest Forbidden Army, I am invincible." Ouyang turned over and lay on his back and said: "These thousand people followed me to guard Lunxian County and went to Yuzhou with me. Zhong Xiang always thought that they were only a thousand people.  He didn¡¯t know that these thousand people were the most elite people in the Song Dynasty. He didn¡¯t know how many mines had been laid on their offensive routes these days. "Mei Niang suddenly said: "No wonder you want people to transport wine from Jiangling.  "You drink." "People in the Song Dynasty have never seen firearms. They think that ten thousand people can always kill a thousand people." Ouyang got out of bed and walked to the window to open it.  Three miles away, flames shot into the sky.  Ouyang could even see the enemy's panic expression in the firelight.  Ouyang said: "They don't know that there are actually three hundred people over there. There are three hundred people who have already surrounded them." Mei Niang also got out of bed and leaned against Ouyang and asked, "Where are the four hundred people?" "They are protecting me.  It's safe." Ouyang smiled and said, "Do you think it's important for Mr. Zhong to have me?"  Ouyang likes this word, and I believe many people like it.  Of course there are a lot of people who hate it.  No matter what, it exists after all.  While they were lingering, someone knocked on the door and said: "Sir, can you capture the thief Yang alive?" "Other situations." "The thief was defeated. They have walked seven miles from the river, and having to escape for seven miles is enough for them. The brothers are  The man said: "It was much smoother than expected. The thieves were bombarded by the first wave. Then when they retreated, they were bombarded by the second wave of mines, plus hand cannons. They all fled with their heads in their hands. In the end, they were basically dead.  I don¡¯t know what happened.¡± The original plan was for Ouyang to have only a thousand people, but Ouyang bullied the bumpkins who had never seen firearms and couldn¡¯t bear the constant sound of thunder.  Firearms are currently only equipped to the Trilateral Army and the First Navy. Not only are the local troops not equipped, they have never even seen them.  At most, I have only heard that The three-layer mines were all quietly transported in and buried quietly in the dark.  The explosion area of ??each layer covers several acres of land.  The most terrible thing is that the rebels have already walked for seven miles and have to flee for another seven miles, and they have to withstand two more explosions in the middle.  The important point of this plan is to play with women.  Ouyang once again took advantage of the darkness of human nature.  Many people would rather believe that a successful person is a hypocrite and a fool, and that success is the result of luck.  I don't want to believe that this person is really capable.  So Ouyang became a person who only knows how to play with women. As the saying goes, it is difficult for a hero to be a beauty.  If the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, the people below will naturally be careless.  According to Liu Qi's estimation, if the rebel army comes with 10,000 people, it can be easily captured, but with 20,000 people, Ouyang must evacuate.  If there are thirty thousand people, Ouyang?Have to escape.  Controlling the number of enemy attacks is critical.  But Ouyang was obviously overly worried. In order not to alarm the imperial garrison, Yang Mo brought less than five thousand people, which was not enough to fill his teeth. The battle was a one-sided massacre.  "Let them go," the lieutenant shouted and ordered his men to stop attacking. At dawn, everyone lined up neatly to watch hundreds of people hurriedly board the ship.  They were lucky. If Zhong Xiang came, they would all be intercepted.  If Prime Minister Zhong didn't come, someone would have to spread fear.  ¡°In this battle, not a single person from the Forbidden Army died¡­¡± The team of 1,000 people had been cooking rice early in the morning. The momentum of this team of 1,000 people was completely different. The heads of all the dead rebels were cut off and placed on the car.  These people were eating right next to the car and didn't feel any discomfort at all.  Ouyang couldn't bear it. He and Mei Niang were dining at the restaurant.  Today Ouyang personally cooks and prepares a nutritious breakfast.  Mei Niang asked with some reluctance: "Where are you going?" "Enough people have died." Ou Ping took a bite of scrambled eggs and said: "They will not die in vain, and they will use their heads to break them down along the way."  "Open Yuezhou and Tanzhou." "Report" several soldiers escorted a man to the restaurant: "Is this the second thief Yang?" Ouyang asked: "No cooperation?" Ouyang arrested Yang Motou.  Get up and take a look. Well, he is a silent man with strong muscles.  Last night, he was recognized as soon as he showed up and was finally captured alive by a soldier.  He is strong, and the Forbidden Army is even stronger. Amateurs always lose a few percent against professionals.  Ouyang wiped his hands and continued to eat. After taking a few mouthfuls, he said, "Yang, I don't admire you at all for not being afraid of death. There are a thousand people here who are not afraid of death. It's just that they are serving the country, and you  It's for the sake of harm. You keep saying that you want to share the world, but you even hide the gold and silver yourself. You are no different from the criminals of the nation." "If it falls into your hands, you can say whatever you want." Yang Mo gritted his teeth.  "I've heard this a lot." Ouyang said, "I never force others. It's the same for men and women." "Let me go?"  surprise.  "Zhuge Liang captured Meng Huo seven times. I believe my sincerity can move you." Ouyang laughed and said, "Not just you, I will let go of all the dozen of your subordinates who were captured." "Why?" "No, I  I'm happy." Ouyang waved: "Find them a boat and tell them to get lost." "Yes" Mei Niang was also very surprised. This was not someone else, but the second leader.  Even if you don't kill him, you can't just let him go.  Not only did he let the tiger go home, but he also lost the opportunity for promotion.  Mei Niang asked curiously: "Enemies, are you really going to let them go?" "Yes" "Why?" "No why." Ouyang sandwiched the scrambled eggs and said, "Open your mouth." Mei Niang is not an idiot, this mouth means shut up.  Mei Niang smiled and opened her thin lips slightly, letting Ouyang feed it into her mouth.  ¡­ ¡­ Yang Mo didn¡¯t really believe that Ouyang really let him go until the boat was far away.  But the more he thought about it, the more puzzled he became. He asked the person who was also meditating in the cabin: "Huang Zuo, what do you think?" Huang Zuo smiled bitterly and said: "I think it was a borrowed knife to kill someone." "Whose knife was borrowed?" "Great Heavenly Sage."  "How to borrow it?" Huang Zuo said: "Young man, do you believe that Ouyang let us go?" "I don't believe it." "Of course the Great Heavenly Sage doesn't believe it either." Huang Zuo said: "Most of the five thousand people were wiped out. On the contrary, the leader is safe and sound.  This is a provocation. Even if you tell the truth, how much will Great Heavenly Saint believe you?" Yang Mo said after a moment of silence, "Even if you don't believe it, I can't see it yet."  Is it a poisonous plan?" Huang Zuo said: "If you don't kill me, there will be internal taboos and mutual suspicion. If you kill me, it will inevitably lead to dissatisfaction among the tens of thousands of brothers who follow Mo Lang in Xia Cheng and Liu Heng villages.  Liu Heng Village was run by Yang Mo, and the terrain was dangerous. Historically, Yang Mo relied on this terrain to sustain himself for six years during the Song army's annihilation.  In the end, four traitors emerged from within and they were dealt with.  Yang Mo suddenly realized that Ouyang was afraid that after his death, Zhong Xiang would annex his own power and become stronger.  Yang Mo asked: "What should we do now?" "Now we can't go back to Dingzhou, otherwise Mo Lang and Da Tian Sheng will have a dispute sooner or later." Huang Zuo said: "Look, Mo Lang, no matter how Da Tian Sheng deals with you, it will cause trouble."  Trouble.¡± Indeed, even if Zhong Xiang believes it, the people around Zhong Xiang don¡¯t believe it.  By then the situation will become more confusing.  Yang Mo said: "I can commit suicide in front of the Great Heavenly Sage." "Haha Mo Lang, that is not suicide, it is the Great Heavenly Sage who forced you to death." The brothers in the village affirmed.??Agree.  "What can you do?" "Yes." Huang Zuo said, "Why don't you go to Dingzhou and go directly back to Xia Cheng and Liu Heng villages." "Ah, is that so?" "Don't worry, listen to me. You won't go.  Naturally, the Great Heavenly Saints in Dingzhou will be jealous, but they will be jealous even if you go there. Why don't you come and clear your mind?" Huang Zuo said, "You stay in the two villages, and then you can find someone.  The opportunity caught the Song army by surprise. After you have done great service and go to Dingzhou to plead guilty, the Great Heavenly Sage will definitely not doubt you again." Yang Mo pondered: "This" "Look, Song Dynasty has sent out the most elite imperial army.  Liu Qi leads the army. Who is Liu Qi? He is the one who killed more people than we have seen. We can't defeat them together. If you don't return to the camp, the brothers will probably fight head-on.  Liu Jiajun will do it." Yang Mo has actually thought of this possibility.  Under Zhong Xiang's suspicion, he would probably send himself to attack the Song army to express his position.  But those who have not experienced it will not know that yesterday was not a war at all, but a massacre.  The Imperial Army has strict orders, is fearless in life and death, has experience in wars, and has powerful weapons, which are simply not something they can fight against.  "Mo Lang, we can't defeat these people on land. Only if we can get to the water can we be more careful." Huang Zuo said: "If Mo Lang is really doing it for the good of our brothers, he should know what to do." Yang Mo nodded and thought for a moment.  After the meeting, he ordered: "Go to Xia Cheng." "How do I know that I can provoke a relationship between them?" Ouyang immediately smiled and answered the deputy general's words: "I don't know either, but letting Yang go has only advantages and no disadvantages. Advantage one,  It is to prevent Zhong Xiang from swallowing up Yang Mo's men and lead them together. The second benefit is that it may cause internal discord among them. The third benefit is that if Yang Mo's prisoners are released, his prestige will be compromised. The fourth benefit is that he will not dare to fight against us on land.  , to avoid fearless casualties. "The lieutenant general said: "Sir, Yang Mo is proficient in water warfare, will he let the tiger go back to the mountain?" "Don't worry, he will die when it's time to die." Ouyang said: "Our mission is to kill the thieves on land.  Clean it up to avoid harming the people again. As for the water village, there are experts to deal with it. "Well, 10,000 people from Songjiang on Yongxing Military Road have been extracted and are on their way to Dongting Lake."  "These people have been playing with water since they were born. Each of the thirty-six leaders has unique skills. They have been unable to use their strength in the north, so it would be good to let them play in the water. To train the soldiers and establish some military exploits, they will be able to do well in the future.  I'll go back and get promoted." The main reason why the Northern Song Dynasty kept fighting was because they couldn't find any generals who could control Dihe.  The court was worried about recruiting Song Jiang, who was responsible for such an important lifeline. One was ability and the other was trust.  Ouyang planned to let them come to Dongting Lake to make some contributions and take over Dihe River legitimately.  Once the land route is cleared, it will be difficult for the people in the water to maintain a large scale.  But you can¡¯t be dismissed, right?  What if I don¡¯t sever?  Everyone, please tighten your belts.  If this continues, it will be self-defeating.  Ouyang hopes to exchange the smallest casualties for the greatest victory.  "We've arrived." The deputy general looked at the city in the distance.  This is the third county in Yuezhou, the occupied county seat.  The deputy general introduced: "According to intelligence, behind this county is a place where thieves are rampant." In battle formation, a thousand cavalry are leading horses.  When I arrived at San County, I saw that the city gates were closed and there were flags with the word "Chu" flying at the top of the city, but there was no one guarding the city.  The deputy general waved his hand, and two soldiers dragged an explosive package straight to the city gate.  No one fired an arrow, and no one struck.  After the explosive package was placed, the fuse was lit and the two soldiers evacuated.  With a ¡®boom¡¯ sound, the city gate was blown open.  A small group attacked, regardless of the situation inside the gate, and began to climb the city wall, while another small group went straight into the city.  The rest of the soldiers were ready.  After a while, a signal was sent from the top of the city: there were no enemies in the city.  The deputy general ordered: "Three hundred people dispersed to search within a radius of twenty miles and set up scout stations, while the others went into the city to defend."  Liu Qi's headquarters will arrive in two days, and Ouyang will advance as the vanguard.  After occupying three counties, Ouyang stayed behind while the deputy general led 500 people to continue to move in to reconnoiter the enemy's situation.  There are still a lot of residents in the city, but it can be seen that the life is not very good.  The two most basic stores, salt and rice, had been looted and were no longer open.  Some residents have fled the county.  Ouyang found some information in the county government office.  There are measures for the internal affairs management of mutual gangs above.  Quite pale and feeble.  The main reason is that according to the spirit of the mutual aid association, no one dares to start even a small business.  County residents bring their rice from the countryside, and then use the conditions of joining the mutual aid association to distribute the rice.  The status of the fishermen and woodcutter in the mutual aid association was relatively high. Ouyang was furious when he visited and found out that the number of literate people in the county was only in single digits.  After asking around, I learned that all the Confucian scholars, Taoist priests, and monks were killed, which was quite inhumane.  The requirements of the mutual aid association are to speak one word, and no additional political or religious remarks are allowed.  ZhongxiangCreate a cult of personality.  The deputy general reported: "My lord, I have inquired clearly. There were originally more than ten thousand puppet Chu troops here, but they all ran away last night. Their combat effectiveness is very low, and half of them don't even have swords. Many of them are young men temporarily recruited locally. I guess there are many locals who are low-level.  The Puppet Chu Army did not leave, but went home. ""Let people go from street to street, saying that bygones are bygones, and in three days, a porridge factory will be opened, and the troublemakers will be killed." Ouyang thought about it and said.  In addition, the imperial army spends a lot of money to recruit spies who can penetrate into the puppet Chu. "My lord, this recruitment of spies shouldn't be so public," "The general is so worried that he will not dare to recruit spies from the three counties in the future."  People from the three counties will have to join the mutual aid association in the future, and the benefits will not be high." "I understand," the lieutenant praised in his heart. Not to mention the people from the three counties who were among the thieves.  I'm afraid the situation is not good.  "They have been keeping a close watch on the county magistrate for the past few days, and nothing has been done yet. They have also killed all the gentry and merchants, and no influential people have come out to control the situation. Some people who are determined to be evil may do anything." The deputy general asked.  "Why don't you humble your post and stay put for a while?" "No, five hundred people are enough." Ouyang said, "There are scouts on all sides, and General Liu is coming again. Nothing will happen."?¡­?There is no trouble, recruitment.  There are quite a few spies.  As soon as they arrived at the yamen, many people revealed that they had been members of mutual aid associations, and it was too easy to break into them.  Ouyang was not stingy either. He sent 500 coins per person first, and then promised a generous reward of ten guans if everything was accomplished.  Xixia has begun to fully develop, and Ouyang's land deeds have been resold to businessmen, so there will naturally be more money.  If you have more money, you have to spend it.  In one afternoon, a total of two hundred spies were recruited at a cost of one hundred coins.  Ouyang sighed, in Yangping Baiguan you can only have a good meal at Jinzun.  Others are recruiting soldiers, Ouyang is recruiting spies on a large scale.  Not only are we recruiting in the three counties, but anyone who can prove that they have been in a mutual aid association can join.  Knives, guns, weapons, intelligence, heads, boats, and even Zhong Xiang¡¯s eighteenth wife.  All products are clearly marked with pictures, words and facts.  It is stated on the price tag that a wife has a head of 20 heads, a child has a head of 30 heads, and a living person has an additional five heads.  A boat with less than 10 people can carry five guans, and a boat with more than 10 people can range from 8 guan to 50 guan.  A horse has thirty knives, a sword has six knives Not only are spies recruited, but all people with supplies from mutual aid associations are welcome to apply.  Posters were posted everywhere, and explanations were posted in every county, every township, and every village.  Suddenly, the number of people signing up to join the mutual aid association in enemy-occupied areas skyrocketed.
