Chen Guangqiang immediately agreed loudly, and came up to receive the command arrow.

"Reconnaissance Captain Liu Fangyi sent five sentries three miles away to each of the four directions of the camp."

"Yes, General!"

…

Dou Jiande and Sun Anzu were named in the official history as the leaders of the important peasant uprising army at the end of the Sui Dynasty, but they were actually bandits at the beginning, that is, bandits.

The business of bandits and bandits is similar to gang fights on the street. Whoever is ruthless and courageous, who has many brothers under his command, can enjoy himself, and Dou Jiande and Sun Anzu can gather tens of thousands of people in just half a year. , and survived several times of encirclement and suppression by officers and soldiers, cruelty, boldness and carefulness are definitely the most basic characteristics.

Heiji Town is very important to Gaojibo and the gang of rebels. Through Gaoji Town, they can trade with some merchants, and even attract many tax-evading people to live here, gradually restoring Heiji Town to its original state. According to the lively scene in the past, if there are people, there will be shops and merchants, and if there are shops, there will be taxes.

Dou Jiande led 5,000 troops and sat here personally.

Dou Jiande has the strength to break the stage of success. The most important thing is that he is good at employing people and is loyal. Many people are willing to follow him. Moreover, he is very particular about being a rebel. After choosing the target of the wealthy family in half a year, just vote and leave. If the other party is wise and willing to spend money to avoid disasters, he will not force people to sell the pot, because adhering to the principle of making money with harmony, his direct descendants will also He has not suffered any setbacks, but his reputation among the rebels in Gaojibo is getting higher and higher, and he has gradually surpassed the leader Sun Anzu, and he has a good reputation among the poor people. Many people call him a righteous thief .

But in fact, Dou Jiande never gave the poor people any of the things he robbed. It was just that those poor people felt inexplicably happy after seeing the rich, gentry and nobles being robbed, so they were inexplicably grateful and respectful to Dou Jiande , I have to say that the human mind is really delicate and complicated.

To be honest, because of the existence of the thousand-year-old Cui family in Qinghe County, in Dou Jiande's view, this is a hard bone, so Dou Jiande is unwilling to start trouble in Qinghe County, but he and Sun Anzu are both from Qinghe County. County thieves can make better use of the geographical advantages and harmony of people, and are more familiar with the weather.

Dou Jiande is a person with big ambitions. He believes that looking at the counties of Hedong, Hebei, and Shandong, there are about a hundred or so rebel villages, big and small. The Great Sui court had just finished fighting Goguryeo, and the court was hurt. He heard that the morale of the army was low. Strictly speaking, the court hadn't spared any time to clean up the place, and everyone could still live happily. If the imperial court gradually recovers, and the dog emperor stops fighting Goguryeo and focuses on the rebels from all walks of life, everyone will become grasshoppers after autumn, and no one can survive for too long.

So, Dou Jiande has always believed that if he does not want to be wiped out one by one by the court, everyone can only join forces to seek prosperity, but there is a key problem in the joint army that is difficult to solve, and that is who will be the big leader.

Originally, Zhishilang Wang Bo was a good candidate, after all, this guy jumped out first, and his momentum was also big, but the so-called gun hits the head of the bird

Precisely because of his great reputation, the imperial court attached great importance to him and sent an elite army to deal with him. Therefore, Wang Bo suffered repeated defeats in repeated battles.

So, Dou Jiande believes that before the imperial court regains its strength, whoever achieves the greatest reputation can replace Wang Bo as the leader of the green forests in the counties north of the Yellow River, and the most convenient way to increase fame is Find someone who is more famous than anyone else to deal with. Once you succeed in gaining fame from this person, even a trivial victory will be enough to convince all the rebels in the world.

Watching all the counties north of the Yellow River, even in the whole world, the most famous one is of course the king of Qin'an, Wang Junlin.

The legendary nine-foot-tall poisonous general with two horns on his head and fangs on his mouth, his various deeds are too prominent and rumored. In the eyes of the rebels all over the world, his status as King Qin An is only worse than the emperor, so Dou Jiande always thought that as long as he finds an opportunity to take someone for a walk in the Fanyang County, and then retreats, the news will spread and let the people His reputation has greatly increased.

It's just that although Dou Jiande has always been confident and doesn't take the local county army and county soldiers seriously, he is still a little afraid of King Qin An. He never thought that he could defeat Wang Junlin's army head-on. No one in the world has that ability. But it is not a problem to take advantage of Fanyang County's unpreparedness to gain some advantage in its territory.

So, as early as more than a month ago, Dou Jiande sent his confidants to Fanyang County to look for an opportunity to take advantage of it. Huanghua's daughter, plus the price of three thousand taels of silver, made an agreement with Taihang Mountain hero Xiong Kuohai to cooperate with her to accomplish things.

Unexpectedly, before the time Dou Jiande was waiting for came, more than 8,000 soldiers and horses from Fanyang County crossed the boundary and came to kill them on their own initiative.

Fortunately, the spies sent by Dou Jiande to Fanyang County to find opportunities for him sent him an urgent letter before the 8,000 soldiers and horses in Fanyang County. The army came to encircle them, but it would be different if they knew about it in advance.
