Favoring concubines and ignoring wives? The mistress of the marquisate remarried a powerful official
Chapter 220 Attacking the Mountain
Langfeng Mountain is located on a high mountain more than 100 miles away from the capital. There is a group of bandits entrenched on the mountain. These bandits usually rely on the miasma on the mountain to prevent them from being harmed. Every day, they come down the mountain to act as accomplices of the tigers, causing the people passing by to complain bitterly.
Now, Zhang Daoba, the leader, just received the news from the spy from the capital. He said to Zhang Daoba, "Boss, there's news from the capital that the court has sent people to suppress the bandits. The person who came is Song Jing's only son, Song Lan, a young boy in his twenties. Although he's a young boy, he's grown tall and strong now. I don't know how strong he is."
"When will they come?" Zhang Daoba was a little dumbfounded when he heard this. He immediately looked at the spy next to him and said, "Besides, there is miasma on Mount Langfeng. How can they come up the mountain? Do they dare to go up the mountain?"
"I heard that Jiao Da in the capital was discovered, so he found a way to break the miasma." The spy beside him looked scared and said to Zhang Daoba, "Boss, what should we do now? How about we run away? As long as we have the green mountains, we will not be afraid of running out of firewood. We don't know when Song Lan will arrive. If we run slowly, I'm afraid it will be too late."
Zhang Daoba was obviously a little panicked, but he still said with all his strength, "Our house is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Don't panic. We have deployed our troops first and will beat him without a fight."
Zhang Daoba's brothers in the mountain stronghold only have about 300 people. These 300 brothers were recruited by him over the years. They have not received any training and rely on numbers and bluffing to rob. Now that the court is sending troops to attack the mountain stronghold, the brothers are more panicked than one another.
It was just that Zhang Daoba, the big brother, was in charge, so they didn't dare to express their opinions immediately, but these idiots were still afraid. In order to deal with the fact that the imperial court was going to attack, Zhang Daoba specially called a meeting of the brothers in the mountain stronghold.
Zhang Daoba looked at the huge crowd around him and saw that his brothers instantly gained confidence. He immediately said, "Brothers, the court is sending enemies now, but we can't be afraid. We said when we first went up the mountain that we must not run away. Now we live in the mountain stronghold, and the people are in the mountain. We heard that the general's youngest son is coming, but we are not afraid. We just wait for the defense deployment and set some traps so that Song Lan will never come back."
Zhang Daoba became more and more passionate as he spoke, and said, "He is just a child, not to be feared. Even if his father comes, I am not afraid."
Zhang Daoba became more arrogant as he spoke. "Brothers, take all your weapons. From today on, there will be ten people guarding the mountain gate. Report if you find anything wrong. Also, brothers who know how to set traps should set traps at the foot of the mountain, just waiting for Song Lan to come and let him have a taste of my grandfather's power."
While Zhang Daoba was giving an impassioned speech, the little thief outside had already come running in with his pants down, shouting to the crowd inside, "Boss, it's bad, the soldiers outside have already broken through the mountain gate and rushed in."
"What?" Zhang Daoba's momentum suddenly dropped by half, and he was quite surprised, "Why are you here so soon? Shouldn't it be a few days later?"
"I don't know. What should the boss do now?" The little thief looked frightened.
"Brothers, now is the time to show your manliness. Don't be afraid, charge! Let those immature thieves outside know how powerful we are." Zhang Daoba said as he pulled out a big knife from his seat and said to the people around him, "Let them know how powerful we brothers are."
After hearing what Zhang Daoba said, the huge crowd below gathered all their strength to rush outside, but Zhang Daoba stayed in the mountain village, opened his eyes and looked at his brothers outside with a guilty look.
The last time his mountain stronghold was attacked, he was able to escape from Song Jing's encirclement by escaping from the shell. Now it was clear that the mountain stronghold could not be saved. Seeing this, Zhang Daoba returned to his room to pack up his gold and silver, and took his closest younger brother with him before leaving.
When Zhang Daoba's younger brother saw Zhang Daoba like this, he felt that something was wrong and immediately asked Zhang Daoba, "Boss, if we leave like this, what will happen to the rest of the brothers?"
"Let's go first. As long as we have the green mountains, we will never run out of firewood." Zhang Daoba couldn't care less now. He carried a bag of treasure and was ready to leave. "I'm afraid the officials haven't found the path in the back mountain yet. So, let's go down the mountain by that path. This will just help us avoid the officials."
Zhang Daoba was about to lead his little brother down the mountain, and he did not forget to say, "Don't go out and alert the enemy, so that the little Song Lan will know where we are going. I saw that little Song Lan when his father came to encircle and suppress us. He was still a young boy. Who would have thought that he would come to encircle and suppress me on behalf of his father? If I had known this, I would have..."
Before Zhang Daoba could finish his words, the door at the entrance fell to the ground with a bang. Zhang Daoba was stunned. When he raised his eyes, he saw a young man in military uniform standing in front of him. The young man looked very handsome, and was only a head taller than him.
"Scar Zhang, I heard that you missed me and still remember what I looked like as a child, so I came to find you right away." Song Lan smiled lightly and looked at the two people in front of him with his arms folded.
Song Lan held the bloody sword in his hand and said to Zhang Daoba, "Your brothers outside either died or surrendered. There are only a few left. Zhang Daoba, which path are you going to choose?"
Song Lan said, raised the long sword in his hand and looked at his blade, and said lightly, "This sword of mine has killed many villains and many enemies..."
As Song Lan spoke, a cold light flashed on his sword, and he looked at Zhang Daoba with murderous intent in his eyes.
At this moment, Zhang Daoba threw all the gold and silver in his hand to the ground and cried to Song Lan, "General, spare my life, General, I didn't mean to harm my sister. It's all a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding. I surrender now, please spare my life."
Song Lan didn't expect this to be the situation, but he grew up in a border area, so he wouldn't take it lightly when he saw an enemy surrendering so easily. He immediately looked at Zhang Daoba's expression and walked inside.
At this time, Zhang Daoba saw Song Lan coming in, took out a dagger from his sleeve, and was about to stab Song Lan. Who knew that the sword in Song Lan's hand was faster, and in an instant he chopped off one of his hands.
