The famous book tour starting from the Red House

Chapter 384
When Dong Ping heard Mu Xu's self-identification, his claws went numb immediately, and he clenched his guns and looked around. When he found that there was no hope of escape, he suddenly put on a smiling face, bowed down and said, "Jiuwen The village master has a virtuous name, and the villain is able to see you today, it is really a blessing for three lives!"

Mu Xu pretended to be surprised and said, "What's the meaning of Dong Dujian? Didn't you bring soldiers to seek my bad luck? Why are you so polite?"

Hearing the words, Dong Ping hurriedly ordered his followers to disarm, and then explained, "The owner of the village clearly learned that the villain is only following orders. It was because Cheng Wanli, the dog official, listened to Zeng Nong's slander and forced the villain to lead the troops. If Otherwise, even if I borrow the courage of the villain, I will not dare to come to Guizhai to make trouble."

"In this way, Dong Dujian is going to defect to me?" Mu Xu looked Dong Ping up and down with a half-smile, then suddenly turned around and asked Yu Bao four questions,
"Brother Yu, come and tell me, our romantic Marquis is telling the truth?"

Dong Ping was shocked, and quickly looked at Yu Baosi with begging eyes, hoping that he would give him a hand for the sake of acquaintance.But Dong Ping forgot that he didn't show Yu Baosi any sympathy during this trip, and he even had a posture of murdering someone just now.

Sure enough, Yu Bao didn't want to look at Dong Ping even when he looked around, so he described in detail how Dong Ping was so brash after he met Dong Ping.

After hearing this, Mu Xu sneered, and stared at Dong Ping with cold eyes. Dong Ping secretly saw his expression, and couldn't help shivering. !"

Hearing this, Mu Xu didn't show any expression on his face, he raised his legs and walked a few steps, came to stand in front of Dong Ping, just looked at Dong Ping quietly, for a moment, no one knew what he was thinking in his heart.

When Dong Ping saw the boots in his eyes, a thought suddenly came to his mind, "He is only a short distance away from me. If I suddenly became violent and took him hostage, wouldn't I be able to escape?"

As soon as this idea came out, it grew wildly in Dong Ping's heart like a weed, and he couldn't suppress it no matter what.Just at this time, Mu Xu turned around at the right time, turned his back to Dong Ping and said, "Since Dong Dujian is willing to abandon the dark and turn to the bright, then the village master will not..."

"Brother, be careful behind you!"

"Dong Ping is bold!"

……

Hearing everyone's reminders and the strong wind behind him, Mu Xu certainly knew what happened. He seemed to have eyes on his back, leaning slightly to one side, while avoiding Dong Ping's surprise attack, Taking advantage of the situation, he leaned back his left shoulder, only heard a "click", and then Dong Ping's screams shook the sky.

All this happened in a blink of an eye, and none of the people present could react. When everyone came back to their senses, Dong Ping had already broken a row of ribs and lay on the ground crying. Then everyone rushed over and surrounded Mu Xu. Concerned about the rush.

Mu Xu waved his hands with a normal face, and said, "Brothers, don't worry, I didn't even hurt a single hair. It's just that Dong Ping seems to have a rebellion in the back of his head, and he will definitely devour the Lord in the future. Fortunately, I still want to take him in." It's disappointing to be your own brother."

It can be said that Mu Xu's words almost decided Dong Ping's fate.

"What else is there to say, let me kill this fellow!"

As soon as Wu Song finished speaking, Lu Zhishen followed suit, "That's right, for such a perfidious dog thief, let the Sa family give him a Zen stick to send him on his way!"

Wu Song and Lu Zhishen took the lead, and no matter what the rest of the people thought, they all demanded that Dong Ping be executed with one voice, as a warning to everyone else.Seeing everyone's anger, Mu Xu raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said, "Forget it, brother Yu, I will leave this guy to you, just give him a good time."

After saying this, Mu Xu ignored Dong Ping's begging for mercy, and went back to the back house to rest. Seeing this, the other heroes followed suit.Only Yu Baosi and some soldiers were left at the scene, as well as Dong Ping who was still lying on the ground moaning.

But Yu Baosi came to Dong Ping's side and knelt down. Seeing his miserable appearance, he couldn't help gloating and said, "You really don't know what to do. Brother Mu kindly spared your life, but you will repay your kindness. I am ashamed to know you." Wait for the villain!"

Dong Ping coughed up blood, and pleaded, "Brother Yu, intercede for me, I am willing to recruit [-] soldiers from outside for Mu Zhaizhu, and I can also take Dongping Mansion without bloodshed."

"Hmph, you are so arrogant when your death is imminent. The six thousand troops stationed outside the city may have already been surrounded by all sides at this moment. Do you think they can fly with wings? As for the little Dongping Mansion, how can I stop my Liangshan army?"

Yu Baosi robbed Dong Ping and relieved the hatred of being humiliated today, then he ignored Dong Ping's begging, ordered people to strip him of his armor, and took him outside the village to pay for it.

Just as Yu Baosi said, at the same moment Dong Ping entered Zengtou City, Lin Chong, Luan Tingyu, Shan Shiqi, and Yang Zhi each led [-] troops and surrounded Dongzhai tightly. He failed to break through the encirclement again, persisted for a day and a night, and then honestly surrendered.

In the next few days, Mu Xu was so busy that his feet didn't touch the ground, he had to deal with the spoils, he had to recruit troops, and he had to lead people to mobilize the people to migrate.

It was at this time that Mu Xu deeply felt the benefits of scholars, and he couldn't help but secretly made up his mind that after returning to Liangshan, he must recruit some scholars to use for him.

After being so busy for a few days, until Pei Xuan brought people here, Mu Xu was finally able to free up his hands, and after throwing those trivial matters to Pei Xuan, he called the generals to discuss the attack on Dongping Mansion.

"Back to my elder brother, my younger brother has interrogated some of the descendants, and learned from them that there are only [-] troops in Dongping Mansion, and the most elite half were taken away by Dong Ping. It's the old, the weak, the sick."

After listening to Shi Qian's report, Mu Xu smiled and said, "Brothers have worked hard, after you go back today, pick some reliable brothers, and you will lead them personally, and sneak into Dongping Mansion first, and I will inquire about the rich and unkind people in the city. Come out, and then send someone to watch them carefully, so as not to let them take advantage of the chaos and transfer money."

"Yes, my little brother takes the order!" Shi Qian clasped his fists and retreated.

Mu Xu then glanced around again, and finally landed on Le He, Yang Zhi, Su Ding, and Yu Bao, and told them, "Brother Le, Brother Yang, Brother Su, and Brother Yu, I will give you Keep [-] soldiers and horses in the headquarters, responsible for staying in Zengtou City, assist Brother Pei Xuan to collect surrendered troops, and send the captured troops back to Liangshan, and do not make any mistakes halfway, otherwise military law will be followed."

Although they felt a little disappointed that they could not go to Dongping Mansion to make meritorious service, the four of them still accepted the order honestly.Seeing this, Mu Xu nodded in satisfaction, then stood up and ordered,
"The rest of you are waiting, go back and prepare the army for war, and send troops to Dongping Mansion after cooking the pot tomorrow!"

"Follow your brother's order!"

The next day, after the whole army had had breakfast, Mu Xu personally led [-] horses out of the camp facing the rising sun and headed towards Dongping Mansion.

Naturally, the road was calm and calm, the army marched for four days, and came to a place fifty miles west of Anshan Town under the jurisdiction of Dongping Prefecture. Seeing that it was getting late, Mu Xu ordered the whole army to set up camp here.

After the camp was finished, Mu Xu went to inspect the place as usual before returning to the main tent of the Chinese army. From a distance, he saw a person standing at the door. When he came closer, it was Shi Jin who came.

"Brother Shi is looking for me for something?"

Shi Jin clasped his fists and replied, "I have something to report to my elder brother."

Mu Xu wondered, "Is there anything we can't talk about tomorrow, but tonight?"

"Brother doesn't know, I stayed in Dongping Mansion for a while in the old year, and I got acquainted with a prostitute named Li Ruilan in the city. So my younger brother thought, why not prepare more gold and silver, sneak into the city, and borrow her house to rest. On the appointed time, when our army attacks the city, I will go to the Bell and Drum Towers and set fire to it, and if the inside and the outside cooperate, great things will be accomplished."

Hearing Shi Jin's words, Mu Xu immediately remembered the passage in the original text, that Li Ruilan's mother took Shi Jin's money, but privately sued Shi Jin, which caused Shi Jin to be arrested by the government and almost beat him to death.
