Chapter 2065 Guizi scrolls are chaotic and mixed, taking advantage of chaos

It can be seen that this boatman has some experience and stories, but Feng Ziying didn't have that much thought to explore. Being able to punt on the bank of the Yellow River is not afraid in such a chaotic situation. so what?

  Whether it is the eyeliner of the rebellious army or the eyes and ears of some big figures in this area, in the face of this situation, I am afraid that they will not have much effect.

The food and supplies in Wubao City have become a magnet that everyone can't give up. Although the chaos troops are coming here continuously, the government also dare not let it go easily. The county magistrate Xia Zhiling has performed well, and now he Knowing this, he dared not easily let Wubao County and many supplies and food fall into the hands of the rebels.

The boat slowly crossed the river. There were seven or eight people crossing the river with Feng Ziying and the others. They were not all the way. Three of them should be business travelers, two were single travelers, and the other two should be father and son. Home.

There was nothing unusual about the entire group crossing the river. Feng Ziying also looked for opportunities to chat with other groups of people, but everyone was very cautious and refused to say more. They only said that the weather was bad and the harvest was poor, which is why they did this. It's as difficult as it is, without mentioning the siege of the city by the rebellious army on the other side of the river, as if they don't know about this situation.

  Getting off the ferry, Feng Ziying immediately felt a tension that was completely different from that in Shanxi.

On the ferry, the bustling scene of people coming and going at Qikou Ferry could not be seen. People came and went in a hurry. Several houses on the edge of the ferry were closed, and only a few of them were open. Tea shops and restaurants, but just looking at the guise, they are all hanging weakly on the bamboo poles, exuding a lonely atmosphere.

  The guests who got off the boat immediately parted ways and left in a hurry, but Feng Ziying and his group seemed to be unable to find a place to go, so they went to a restaurant to eat something.

The owner of the restaurant should be a local, with a slightly greasy face and a flattering smile. The scarf on his forehead has already been wet with sweat, and the sweat scarf on his shoulders shows a kind of ochre-yellow sweat stains. When Feng Ziying and his group came in, they hurriedly cleaned the tables and stools for the group, and asked Feng Ziying and the group what they wanted to eat.

  Feng Ziying was very curious that since the food shortage in Shaanxi is so severe, there are still restaurants on this ferry. Isn't it afraid that hungry people will rush to the door?

  When everyone is about to starve to death, how can you control your rules and laws?

   "Old man, I heard that Wubao is not peaceful now. It is not easy for your restaurant to continue to operate." Feng Ziying asked casually while picking up a cooking cake.

  This kind of ferry restaurant can supply very limited food, cooking cakes, cooked mutton, chicken, these three things are expensive, but it is quite good to have them.

"Guest officer, to tell you the truth, in our small shop, we see people selling vegetables. If it is someone else, it will be cooking cakes at most. There are no chickens or mutton. You have different identities, so..., but today I will sell them." It's the last day, and tomorrow the shop should be closed." The boss glanced at Feng Ziying, and said very professionally: "You are people of status, so don't rely on me for a few coins."

   "Hey, you're so sure that we have status?" Feng Ziying didn't care too much. People who work in this business all the year round have extraordinary eyesight.

"Hehe, look at your shoes, and then look at your walking posture, and you will know." The restaurant owner said with a smile: "These days, at this time, those who dare to cross the river from the east are those who are seeking money." , shouldn't be dressed like you guys,..."

   Didn't say it clearly, but Feng Ziying also knew that the other party probably realized the identity of her party in the government.

   "It seems that you also know the situation in the county?" Feng Ziying asked again.

"These people come and go, don't you know who is driving me? It's just that these people are heading for the county, so this ferry can be kept without any major disasters, but it is estimated that tomorrow will be almost the same. There are more and more people coming, and naturally no one knows how to behave, so I have to pack my things and get out of the boat to hide and see the situation."

The shop owner said without hesitation, "However, from the perspective of the situation, I am afraid that it will be difficult to return to normal in a year or so. If Wubao County is really brought down by them, it must not be turned into a blank land. How can it be restored in the future?" Come over? I'm afraid I can only find my own way out."

  While Feng Ziying was talking to the shop owner, Liu Dingfeng was also talking to two big and three rough shop waiters.

It can be seen that the shop owner and the shop waiter are characters who are used to the storm and have some experience. They are not too resistant to the questions of Feng Ziying and his party, and there is nothing to cover up. However, they will not answer too deep topics, or Just ignore it, which is also in line with Feng Ziying's opinion.

  Besides, it is a local snake, but when the torrent comes, if you still want to be a cart with your arms, it is too overwhelming.

  After paying the money, Feng Ziying and his party left quickly.

   It is essential to be defensive. Although I am not sure which side the owner of the shop belongs to, I still have to guard against the danger brought by the report if it is the eyeliner of a certain rebellious army who detects that my group is suspicious.

  The group of people walked quickly, and did not stop until they were less than three miles away from Wubao County.

This area already has some battlefield conditions. From time to time, you can see small groups of rebellious troops, or rioters, holding bamboo poles, hanging a homemade cloth that is difficult to distinguish the color as a flag, or hanging a long handle hanging from their waists. Swords or hatchets, or simply wooden sticks with one or two spears in the middle, passed in disorder along the road.

Liu Dingfeng led a few people to the bottom of a cliff behind a mound. A cave was dug out under the cliff, but the entrance of the cave was covered by dry vines hanging from above. There is a specially dug cave dwelling here.

   This place seems a bit remote, and it is more than a mile away from the road from the ferry to the county seat. From the road, there is nothing unusual about this place. It is a good place to hide.

  In the cave, there are dry cakes, water bags, and some weapons and armor, but the number is not too large, barely enough for a few people.

   "My lord, I prepared this place in advance. It turned out that I thought that our group might have to settle down temporarily..." Liu Dingfeng explained, and then said: "We made an appointment to meet the rebel army tomorrow."

   "With your cousin?" Feng Ziying asked in surprise.

"No, my cousins ​​should still be on the way. According to the day and the speed of travel, it is estimated that they will arrive tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." Liu Dingfeng smiled bitterly, "I contacted the group of people like Digger. He said that we might go in again, and if we haven’t conquered the county seat by then, we will go in again, so we have to ask him for accommodation.”

   "Is it still the money? Will the other party not be suspicious?" Feng Ziying asked.

"The two groups of people, the earth-burrowing tiger and the jumping tiger, are doing this kind of thing. The merchants come out quietly, but they can't bring too many things, and they don't dare to bring too much, otherwise they can turn their faces at any time. They are not interested in human life. , only interested in gold, silver, pearls, jade and food, so this business has become popular a few days ago,..."

   Liu Dingfeng obviously put a lot of thought into it, and he is very familiar with the situation of the chaos outside the city.

   "What about the Sky Waving Flag?" Feng Ziying asked again.

"The control of the Yaotianqi is stricter. Maybe there are still people below who do this kind of thing, but the leaders don't dare to face it publicly..." Liu Dingfeng praised, "The Yaotianqi has a lot of control over the people below. Yan, he is very skillful. In fact, the reason why there has been no official large-scale attack on the city is that the ground-drilling tiger and the jumping jianhu are unwilling to go all out, because they are worried that the loss will be too great, and if the people who shake the sky flag are allowed to go Siege, not to mention the loss itself, and it will benefit the two groups of people in vain, so Yao Tianqi refused to attack the city alone, so he took it off, and he also had the intention of waiting for more people to join forces to attack the city. But they should only know the people from Baiyun Mountain, but they don’t know that the people from Baitang Village in Boyan Village are also going south.”

  Feng Ziying nodded. He already had a general idea in mind. He looked around and motioned for everyone to sit down. He needed to inform them of his intentions, and he could not make everyone feel that he was doing something hopeless.

"Okay, let me tell you about my plan. Wubao County can't be lost. This is my bottom line. Then how to do this, especially when the external chaos is still gathering here, everyone has a clue." Doubt, let me tell you."

  Feng Ziying looked up at Yue Zhi, raised her head slightly, and the confidence on her face made the people around her subconsciously feel a sense of high spirits.

"Now we have about five rebellious armies, one from the Digging Tiger, one from Wubao, one from the Leaping Tiger, one from Qingjian, one from the Waving Sky Banner, and one from Suide Fenghuangling. At present, it seems to be the strongest and the most powerful, and the leader is also the most prestigious, which is considered the most dangerous. But the Burrowing Tigers, I think it should have the worst fighting will. After all, this is the local area, of course it is for survival. Asking for money, if you give him some opportunities, you may not be able to buy him or recruit him to make him rebel,..."

  Feng Ziying majesticly protruded the words Zhao'an and buy from his mouth. Li Guibao's expression remained unchanged, but Liu Dingfeng's expression changed a little.

  Perhaps for officials, buying backstabs is a very common thing, especially for these chaotic troops, it may be difficult for outsiders to accept, but it is really nothing to worry about.

"Of these three forces, in fact, there is only one that shakes the sky and the flag is the one that needs to be worried, and the jumping tiger can be ignored..." Feng Ziying talked eloquently, "What we need to worry about is actually the follow-up two, that is, Boyanzhai Baitang The rebellious army in the village and Baiyun Mountain, but now the rebellious army in Baiyun Mountain has a good opportunity to cut in,..."
