Chapter 152 This Old Dog

  Chapter 153

  Around the same time, supplies from Youzhou City arrived at Qingniu Mountain.

  The horse-drawn carriage brought five hundred pairs of military boots, and there was also a letter from Li Shanyan. The content of the letter briefly said: The King of Youzhou has already shown mercy, you don't have to be shameless, hurry up and send troops quickly.

  Cheng Dalai wrote another letter to Li Shan, roughly saying: The military boots have been received, and everyone in the mountain stronghold is very grateful to Youzhou. Everyone understands that these military boots are a gift from the King of Youzhou, and where they step on is not just shoes, but the face of the King of Youzhou.

  In any case, always get something from King Youzhou, and the mountain stronghold has 500 people changing into new boots.

  So everyone can work more conveniently.

  As time flies, the construction of Frog Village is almost completed. Cheng Dalai calculates in his heart that he can successfully upgrade the mountain village to level three before the spring arrives.

  Cheng Dalai pondered whether he could take advantage of this period to get some more benefits from Yang Longting. Anyway, it's not like he would be worse off, getting something is still something.

  But before this day was over, Cheng Dairen received a message.

  Yang Long stopped the troops and launched a surprise attack on Mount Fowu, taking advantage of the night to attack the city. With 200 old and weak soldiers as decoys, he lured out Xiong Lao Da from the mountain stronghold. He then took advantage of the empty mountain stronghold and rushed in, using the old, weak, women and children in the stronghold as a shield to launch a fierce attack on Xiong Lao Da.

  Xiong Lao Da's wife and children all died in this battle, his subordinates were injured or killed in large numbers. Xiong Lao Da was escorted by a few trusted men, broke through the siege, now whereabouts unknown.

  In one night, Po Shan was broken, from the start of the battle to its end, it took only two hours. And Yang Long's total troop deployment was less than a thousand.

  They are the soul of soldiers. These thousand men can only be a mourning dog in Luo Tie's hands, but under Yang Long's command, they kill enemies like killing dogs.

  This time, the King of Youzhou showed his teeth in front of everyone. Xiong Lao Da was a fierce man, but Yang Longtan was even more ferocious. Don't look at him being over 70 years old, his old teeth were still very hard and he could swallow anything.

  The whole Youzhou Road's green forest bandits were frightened and trembling with fear after hearing this matter.

  Including Cheng Darui.

  I thought that after rebuilding the mountain bandits, I could get through this matter, but judging from this matter... it's probably hopeless.

  "What are you all staring at? Hurry up and get back to work! Raise the wall another three feet." Cheng Dalai shouted at the people around him.

  "Qin Mian!"

  "What's wrong?"

  "Hurry up and ride your horse to catch up with my letter!" Cheng Dalai stamped his foot and shouted.

  Originally, I was thinking of getting some benefits from Wang of Youzhou, and even jokingly mentioned it in my letter to him. But who knew he would be so aggressive? He used a thousand men to attack Fow Tiger Mountain, and probably won't need many more to take down the Frog Croak Stockade.

  Ma Bi overtook the horse carriage halfway, caught up with the horse carriage of Youzhou City, and took back the letter from Cheng Da Lei. He also handed over a new letter written by Cheng Da Xin.

  The letter contained only four words: Send troops at once.

  ……

  Although Mount Fow Tiger was broken, the remaining embers were not yet clean, and Bear Big also had not died. This time the troops came out to search for Bear Big who escaped into the mountains.

  The King of Youzhou issued an order, all the surrendered Green Forest bandits must participate in this matter. Whoever captures Xiong Lao Da, dead or alive, will be rewarded by the King of Youzhou.

  The battle at Fow Tiger Mountain made everyone understand that Yang Long's precious sword was not old. As for the military order he passed down, no one dared to disobey it again. Almost all the bandits in Youzhou Road have been searching for Xiong Lao's trail over the mountains and ridges these days.

  Cheng Dali also nodded at 50 or 60 soldiers, making it seem like he was following the King of Youzhou's footsteps all along.

  That afternoon, several people chose a place in the mountain forest to have a meal.

  "Big boss, I'm already sixty-three this year, can't you just let me off the hook next time?" an old man said.

  "Old Zhang, it's not me saying this to you, but you should have the ambition of an old horse galloping a thousand miles. Look at Yang Longting, if you really can't do it, then let Xiao Hei take your knife."

  Xiao Hei was a thirteen-year-old boy: "Grandpa Zhang, I can carry it for you, I'm very strong."

  Qin Man helplessly looked at the scene in front of him, and indeed, Cheng Dali had chosen fifty or sixty people, but they were all old and weak from the mountain stronghold, so old that half their bodies were almost buried in the ground, and not one of them was over fifteen.

  "The great bear, that old bear is quite ferocious. These past few days, I've heard that he's killed some more people who were chasing him. If we run into the old bear, I reckon we won't be enough for them to bother with." Qin Man said worriedly.

  "What's the matter, why are we so unlucky to run into him?" Cheng Dairei bit into a dry bun: "After wandering around today, let's go back. This dried provision is getting harder and harder to eat."

  Saying that, Cheng Dalai rushed to Qin Man and said: "Qin Man, you are a hunter by origin, can't you hunt some things to improve our food?"

  Qin Man chuckled: "In this icy and snowy land, where can you find a hunt..."

  Qin Man's smile suddenly froze on his face, and he stared straight ahead: "Xiong..."

  Cheng Dalai followed Qin Man's gaze and indeed saw a black bear emerging from behind a large tree.

  "This bear looks somewhat familiar?" Qin Man.

  "Bears aren't all the same!" Cheng Dairen's mouth began to water: "I've heard bear paws are very nourishing... Qin Man, it's up to you."

  Qin Man stood up with his large gun and quietly climbed onto the big tree along the trunk. Cheng Dairen led his weak and elderly soldiers, silently without making any sound.

  Only saw Qin Man following the tree trunk to climb onto the black bear's head, both hands grasping the gun, and fiercely jumping down from the tree, the gun tip stabbing fiercely at the black bear's head.

  ……

  Xiong Lao Da has been in a bad mood lately, his wife and children were killed by Yang Long. The reward for his capture is getting higher and higher, and he doesn't know how many people are chasing him all over the mountains. The once-proud green forest bandit leader is now fleeing for his life like a stray dog.

  What's even more depressing is that his mount has gone missing. Xiong Lao Da had relied on this black bear to boost his image, and he cherished it more than his own axe.

  When escaping for life, they were in a hurry and got separated from the black bear. Now, Bear Big wants to avoid the pursuing soldiers while searching for his own bear.

  That beast is so vicious, if it causes a disturbance somewhere and someone gets killed, wouldn't that reveal my whereabouts?

  As they turned over a hill, Brother Bear suddenly had a bad premonition and walked forward a few steps to see a group of people gathered around a bonfire eating with gusto.

  "Qin Man is not bragging about you, your skills are really unmatched, one shot and the black bear was knocked down."

  "This bear seems very weak, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy."

  "Alright, alright, no need to be modest. Everyone come and try this bear paw, I may not be good at hunting, but I'm exceptional at barbecuing!"

  Suddenly realizing something, Cheng Dairen abruptly lifted his head and saw that Xiong Lao Da was holding a pair of axes, staring at him with fiery eyes across several large trees.

  "My bear!"

  "I don't know, I really don't know." Cheng Daire looked at the bear meat in his hand awkwardly: "Or, you can have some too."

  If Cheng Dalai knew that this black bear was Xiong Lao Da's mount, he would absolutely not dare to kill it. The bear on the head should be very powerful.

  "Damn dog, go die."
