The Nameless of the Common Clans

"General, there is news about Guo Tai again!" Dian Wei rushed in and said to Chen Mo.

"Oh?" Chen Mo was not in a hurry after hearing this. He pointed to the map and said, "Where is it? Draw it out."

"This..." Dian Wei looked at the map, scratched his head, looked up at Chen Mo and said, "Where is Yishi."

"I'll teach you to write more words on a daily basis. Learn from Dalang." Chen Mo helplessly pointed on the map: "They appeared in Yishi."

"In the area of ​​Hanjia Township in the northeast of Yishi." Dian Wei held the pen in his fist and looked at the map, but he was reluctant to write. After a long while, he looked at Chen Mo and said, "How do you divide the directions on this map?"

Chen Mo: "..."

"Northeast of Yishi, right?" Chen Mo took the pen from Dian Wei and drew a red circle on the map. There were seven more circles on the map, all of which were intelligence sent back these days.

"Is Hanjia Town okay?" Chen Mo asked as he hung the pen on the pen holder.

"No, Hanjia Town set off beacons as soon as they found the thieves. According to the general's order, my men were divided into ten teams. Once they found the beacon, they dragged branches to the direction of the beacon, pretending to be the army's help. At the same time, the surrounding villages would also set off beacons to warn the surroundings. The thieves saw that there was no chance to take advantage of them. After lingering for half a day, they saw that the reinforcements had indeed arrived, so they led their troops to retreat." Dian Wei shook his head. Chen Mo's village joint defense forced many bandits in the Donglai area to starve to death. Now it is also applicable here.

"Order someone to inform Man Chong that the matter of the salt supervisor can be handed over to Gao Shun. Order him to come here as soon as possible to discuss important matters with him." Chen Mo smiled. He came to Hedong this time not only to suppress the bandits, but also to take the power of Hedong into his own hands. Now the situation he arranged has been completed. A pocket formation with Anyi as the center has been set up. If Guo Tai doesn't want to starve to death, she can only go to Anyi.

"Yes!" Dian Wei agreed and left.

...

"What does Chen Mo mean?" Anyi is the ancestral home of the Wei family. In fact, the Wei family has been rooted in Hedong for many years, and the family business has long been spread throughout Hedong. In the past, the slightest disturbance in Hedong could not escape the eyes and ears of the Wei family, but now, when Chen Mo came, the first thing he did was to seal the city. With the joint defense of the villages, it was indeed difficult for Guo Tai and others to attack the counties, but the shops of the Wei family in various places were almost empty.

Originally, when the Wei family learned that Chen Mo was going to marry Cai Yong's daughter, most people in their hearts were disgusted. After all, Cai Yan's appearance and talent were coveted by the Wei family. Even before Chen Mo came, many people were ready to give Chen Mo a warning. As long as Chen Mo arrived in Anyi, with the means and connections of the Wei family, it would be no problem to control Chen Mo to death. Even if he had soldiers, it would be useless. There were two thousand soldiers and horses, and the number of Wei family servants and guards added up to more than this number.

Even if Chen Mo had great abilities, he couldn't do anything in Hedong, let alone suppress bandits.

Now Chen Mo had arrived in Hedong, but it was not what they imagined. The first step was to block the salt supervision. Without waiting for the Wei family to react, he controlled several counties in the name of the governor. When Chen Mo gradually controlled all the cities, only Anyi was left, and the Wei family suddenly found that they were isolated.

The means prepared for Chen Mo were not used at all. What's more terrible is that Chen Mo blocked the cities. For the suppression of bandits, it was naturally beneficial, but for the Wei family, the Wei family's shops in various counties were almost cut off from the Wei family, and the money and goods could not be circulated. The loss in this, outsiders probably dare not even think about it, because the Wei family's shops covered the entire Hedong.

They lowered their faces to ask Chen Mo for leniency, but Chen Mo repeatedly refused, but his attitude was quite polite, and even entertained the people sent by the Wei family, patiently explained, and looked like he was thinking about the overall situation.

But the people in power of the Wei family are also experienced people. They don't know that Chen Mo seems to be polite and courteous, but in fact he is blocking their way out step by step, weakening and suppressing the Wei family. Moreover, this method is much more terrible than coming directly to fight you with a knife and a gun.

If Chen Mo really came to bring troops to find trouble, the Wei family would not be afraid. The world is full of gossip. Even if you hit the Wei family hard today, you will definitely be able to make you spit out your capital and interest in the future.

But what Chen Mo did was to turn from passive to active step by step. Now it is basically certain that Chen Mo has no good intentions towards the Wei family under his polite appearance.

Wei Ji knelt behind the table with a map on his table. He didn't listen to the discussion of others, but his brows were getting deeper and deeper.

"Don't know what's good for you. We asked him so softly, but he still refused. After this bandit trouble, let's see where he can stand in this Hedong area!" A young man snorted coldly.

"Enough!" Wei Ji couldn't stand it anymore. He slapped the table and looked at the clansmen around him. He suddenly felt powerless. So many people only saw that Chen Mo was making things difficult for them. No one saw the real crisis of the Wei family?

"Head of the family!" When everyone saw Wei Ji getting angry, their voices suddenly disappeared. They looked at Wei Ji in confusion.

"Mobilize all the manpower we can mobilize, strengthen the city defense, and prepare for battle." Wei Ji shook his head helplessly. This 15-year-old boy has a very deep mind.

"Head of the family!" A young clansman frowned and said, "Chen Mo is helping our Wei family to save face like this. Do we have to help him?"

Not to mention whether Cai Yong wanted to marry his daughter to Chen Mo, just the fact that Chen Mo didn't take his Wei family seriously since he entered Hedong, everyone was very resentful of Chen Mo.

"Help him?" Wei Jian raised his head, looked at the tribesmen who had not yet figured out the situation, and shook his head helplessly: "Now it is self-rescue. Haven't you noticed that Chen Mo has connected the counties through this means of joint defense in the countryside? Only the Anyi area has not been deployed? "

"Even if he does it, we can't help him!" The man said with a pinched neck. In all these years, the Wei family has never suffered such a big loss in the land east of Hedong.

"Idiot!" Wei Jian couldn't help but stand up, kicked over the table, pointed at the tribesman and cursed: "Now it's not about whether we can help others, but whether they are willing to help us. The only thing left in Anyi is that there is no such thing." Deployment, that is to say, for Mrs. Guo, the easiest place to attack now is Anyi. My Wei family's manor and fields are all in Anyi, and 90% of the farm outside the city is owned by my Wei family. If Chen Mo is cruel, Some, as long as Mrs. Guo is allowed to attack, our Wei family's hundreds of years of accumulation will be destroyed in one fell swoop. They also want to prevent others from gaining a foothold. Ever since Chen Mo blocked the Yanjian and Pu Ban, he has already established himself here. Now if the Wei family wants to survive, it depends on Chen Mo!"

"this……"

Wei Ji has always been gentle and gentle. This is the first time that everyone has seen him get so angry. But what Wei Ji said is really hard to accept. An old man said: "Then Mrs. Guo has also been favored by us. Besides, Anyi The city is strong and there are many barriers outside the city, so Mrs. Guo doesn’t have the guts to attack, right? "

The Wei family has been rooted in Hedong for hundreds of years. Not to mention Anyi, at least half of the land in the most fertile land from Sangquan to Anyi belongs to the Wei family. And Anyi, as the base camp of the Wei family, is only ten miles outside the city. The cultivated land in the country basically belongs to the Wei family. In terms of financial resources, the Wei family is as rich as any other family in the world.

"Favour?" Wei Jian sighed and said: "Uncle Yuan, Guo Tai helped us to drive away the hostility. You secretly supported Guo Tai's salt, grain, grass and iron tools. Do you really think I don't know about it? In the past, it was considered a transaction, but it was not a friendship, nor a friendship. It’s not Enyi. Now that they are cornered by Chen Mo, how can they care about them? They are thieves!”

"Master, what should we do now?" Wei Jian said this, and everyone suddenly panicked and looked at Wei Jian.

"According to what I said before, the city defenses must be strengthened. In addition, the forts outside the city also need to be garrisoned and defended layer by layer. Uncle Yuan is cautious, so you can bring some land deeds and house deeds to see Chen Mo. The Wei family is willing to fully support the envoy. , and is willing to offer the land deed, and when the thieves retreat, he is willing to support the county government with one hundred thousand stones of food and grass, and three hundred strong men."

"Master, have you passed it?" Several young clan members frowned. With so many things, even the Wei family would be exhausted.

"How much?" Wei Jian sighed and said, "I'm just afraid he won't accept it."

Judging from Chen Mo's methods, if Chen Mo didn't guess that the Wei family was intending to target him before coming to Hedong, Wei Ji would never believe it. But this is the scary thing about Chen Mo. He will stab you with a knife bit by bit while smiling. On the chest, he acted vigorously and resolutely, throwing you into a trap without even giving the other side a chance to react.

Being an enemy of such a person is definitely not what Wei Qian wants.

As for Cai Yong's betrothal of Cai Yan to Chen Mo, that is a matter of the Cai family. Cai Yan has been expelled from the Wei family and has nothing to do with the Wei family. Because of this, it is definitely not possible to offend an enemy like Chen Mo. A wise move.

"Don't worry, owner, I'll take care of it right away!" Wei Yuan agreed and immediately went to find the land deed and house deed, preparing to present them to Chen Mo.

Wei Jian looked at the others again.

Seeing this, everyone did not dare to say anything, and quickly went to direct the men to strengthen the city defense, transport supplies, and at the same time notified the villages outside the city to prepare to defend against the enemy.

Most of the farms in Anyi are tenants of the Wei family. The Wei family's orders are sometimes more effective than the court's orders, but coordinating them is much easier than Chen Mo.

Wei Jian's plan was to follow Chen Mo's example, hoping that the flames of war would scare away the invading traitors.

The Wei family had been busy for a long time, and Wei Ji had been presiding over things in the main hall. Until evening, suddenly the chief secretary of the government office and several Wei family members rushed in.

"The master of the house really had a clever plan. Then Guo Taizhen came with his troops. The dozen or so Zhuangzi we were waiting for were destroyed by Guo Tai's troops and are now heading towards Anyi."

"Brother Boru, what should we do?" the chief clerk asked anxiously.

"Don't panic, we are already prepared." Wei Jian sighed helplessly: "Follow me to the city to take a look."

"good!"
