Of course, this little leader would not ask about this matter. He just took a thick wool cloak and wrapped it with Zhou Daniu, and then led Zhou Daniu to the side of the deserted military platform.

According to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, the smallest defense facility on the border is the Fire Road Pier. One pier only has a team of soldiers, a size of about ten people. There is a small courtyard and a pier fort about three meters high. When police are present, you can enter the pier to defend. There are wolf dung and hay on the top of the pier. When a large number of enemies attack, ignite the wolf smoke and call the police... The function is the same as the beacon tower.

The next level is the military platform. There are about 300 steps around a military platform, and there are dozens of garrison soldiers. There are also a small number of cavalry. A military platform may be the core of many fire roads. When encountering a small group of enemies, the military platform can be led by the military platform's garrison troops, and the defense forces in various places work together to fight. The next level is various military forts. Each town on the nine sides has a large number of military forts. Military forts are the core of defense. The importance is actually above the inner town's city and the acropolis.

The large military fort is several miles wide, like a small county town. The city is high and steep, with a large defense facilities and living area. A military fort can be garrisoned for more than a thousand or even thousands of people. For example, Xinping Fort is stipulated to be garrisoned by Yanghe East Road Generals in Datong Town, and the number of soldiers is stipulated to be garrisoned by 1,600. As for Zhangjiakou Fort, it was originally a military fort. Because it is very important, there are many garrisoned soldiers. Later, because it is connected to multiple important official roads, it is the gateway to Beijing. Zhangjia Fort has developed very well, and ordinary prefectures are not as good as it, and there are even more garrisoned soldiers.

The abandoned military platform in front of us is a typical ordinary Taicheng, with a circumference of about 300 steps, about 3 zhang high, and a base of about 1 zhang high. It is all built by Qingtiao stones. Since the construction of the city was customized during the Taizu period, both bricks and stones were carved with names of officials and craftsmen, the rest of the matter was sparse. Only the construction of the city has not been changed for hundreds of years. The military platform has been abandoned for many years, but the foundation is solid and has grown a lot of weeds. Although it is in the severe winter, the withered weeds are still revealed from the snow, showing the indomitable and tenacity of life.

Of course, Zhou Daniu would not have any emotion or touch. There are many such military stations in Liaodong. There are only ones a few miles apart, and he has seen too many of them.

There are hundreds of Huoluduns and countless military forts along the Hetao District of Liaohe River. Beyond the side wall is Mongolia. The border walls from Jiajing to Longqing and the early years of Wanli were broken several times. The Mongols attacked the city of Liaoyang, which was deeply penetrated into Liaozhong. There was no abandoned military platform in Liaodong. Zhou Daniu knew how to enter the military platform. He was familiar with turning to a side angle. Turning over the base of the Taiwan, he saw the tall military gate.

The city gate that the two of them had arrived at the height of the city was destroyed and was pushed down and piled up on one side as firewood. Both sides of the door were firewood as tall as a mountain, with a shallow layer of snow on the top. More than a dozen people were carrying firewood. They were wrapped in cloth on their hands, their faces and ears were frozen purple, and they were piled up their feet while carrying.

There was also a stable built at the door, with dozens of horses squeezing tightly together, with white air constantly spraying from their noses, and the horse's hooves scattering the snow, revealing the yellow dead grass and black ground below.

"There are many pole leaders in it." Seeing that Zhou Daniu was back, the head guarding the gate asked someone to report, and laughed in a low voice: "The big cabinet was originally a little depressed, but when they saw that they were coming, they were very energetic."

Zhou Daniu was a little puzzled. The Military Intelligence Bureau must have had contact with Yu Shigan before, and Yu Shigan should understand the current situation... Zhang Han and the Inspection Office were not helping him, but just putting him to support the bandits and self-respecting. Was Yu Shigan's mind changed again when he was encouraged by a group of bandits?

Different

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) A personal soldier from Yu Shigan ran out and led Zhou Daniu to the general hall of the military platform. The place was wide, and there were more than a dozen fires in it. The lit firewood was shining with the bright flames. The temperature in the hall was very high, and the aroma of wine and food came to the face. When Zhou Daniu came in, Yu Shigan put down the knife that cut the lamb's legs and said happily: "Daniu is back, everyone, this is my powerful arm and help, the border army of Liao Town."

There were many people in the room, and Zhou Daniu also bowed in all directions and said, "I have met you all the leaders."

Everyone stood up and returned the favor. Zhou Daniu saw that Lao Zhou was also inside. Those who stood up all looked evil and looked not kind at first glance. However, there was a man in his thirties around Lao Zhou. Although he was dressed simply, he had an unconcealed nobleness on his face. He looked gentle and somehow he mingled with these people.

"Look the light down."

"Sweep the floor in Xiawang."

“Flying right away.”

"In the next tiger."

"It's shooting down the sky!"

It seems that these pole heads have just arrived, and everyone is introducing themselves. When they introduce themselves, they stand up and hug Yu Shigan. Yu Shigan also gets up and holds his fists to return the salute.

Zhou Daniu knew that Yu Shigan's arrogant aura had diminished a lot. In the past, Yu Shigan's old subordinates were all border troops and looked down on the bandits. In addition, there were more and more people like snowballs along the way. There were more and more bandit leaders, and only a few dozen people were fewer. Although the bandit number was decent, it was actually not worth it. Yu Shigan had never looked down on these people before. Now it was a break-up. It seemed that the previous battle had really hit him.

"Everyone, you must have something to do together." Yu Shigan said: "We are all people holding our heads in our hands. Don't hide it, just say something!"

Among these people, Lao Zhou was the backbone. When the Second Zhou ambushed Zhang Han and was killed, many subordinates were killed and injured. Later, the rest were all attached to Lao Zhou. This guy was determined to avenge the leader who had died before, and he also ran to Yu Shigan early, and he was the one who encouraged him to go to Lingqiu. In the previous battle, Yu Shigan suffered heavy losses. Lao Zhou brought so many bandit leaders over and seemed to be able to compete with Yu Shigan.

"Big Cabinet." Old Zhou still looked polite and bowed: "We underestimated Zhang Han's power after the defeat. No wonder the brothers under Da Gubinet did not do their best. Now that things have come to this point, Da Gubinet has a lot of losses, so we can't just forget it. As for the following, Zhang Han has shops and caravans everywhere from Lingqiu to Xinpingbao. His foundation is big, and big also has great disadvantages. We cause trouble for him everywhere and ask him to catch fire. After a long time, he will have no money to support his soldiers. When he becomes weak, we will slaughter his Lizhuang again and must avenge his previous revenge."

Yu Shigan shook his head and said, "That man is so powerful. I don't plan to compete with him for victory. Here we will be the first to have a winter. After spring is in full swing, I will find a way to leave. You want to seek revenge on him. I won't stop him, but I won't interfere."

"Listen to me," Lao Zhou refused to give up, but advised: "We have been in the mountains for a long time, and the officers and soldiers can't do anything to us. A patrolman and a archer scared us?"

The bandit leader who had just called the shooting of the sky interrupted, "Zhang Han doesn't have two birds, we have robbed his convoy, how about it? It's not good."

Yu Shigan just shook his head and said, "My old subordinates have broken a lot. I'm going to tell you that I have an appointment with Zhang Han. If he lets us go, we won't cause trouble for him."

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) At this time, he looked at Zhou Daniu and said, "If it weren't for my old subordinate, who could have been released? Do you think that Zhang Han is a good man and a trusted woman?"

Yu Shigan, the bandits in front of him, still looked down on them. Some of them may have one or two thousand people in total, but most of them have not received serious military training and lack good weapons. Yu Shigan and Zhang Han drove their cars and horses and used upright formation fighting methods. The battle was too bad, which led to his serious psychological shadow, otherwise he would not have agreed to Zhang Han's conditions.

Lao Zhou and others were so thirsty that they were persuaded, but Yu Shigan was still unmoved and asked people to keep serving wine and food. They were very polite. Everyone originally wanted to use their generals to provoke him, but they remembered Yu Shigan's reputation and the personal soldiers holding big swords and spears outside... I thought about it and let it go.

At this time, the man beside Lao Zhou spoke and said, "Yu Dagui, I want to ask, how can you revive your ambition?"

Yu Shigan stared at this person. If ordinary people were already afraid of being stared at by the poisonous snake-like eyes, the man was not afraid at all. His eyes looked at Yu Shigan and did not retreat.

"You are not a pole, nor a pole head." Yu Shigan stood up and shouted: "Who are you? You dare to make a fool of me, aren't you afraid of skinning!"

"There are people who put life and death aside." The man looked pale and stood up and said, "If the big cabinet is willing to listen to me, he will die without any resentment."

"Okay, I'm a man, tell me."

"Fan Yongdou..."

"ah?"

Many of the people here do not know the identity of the man. At this time, everyone jumped up, and their eyes felt incredible.

Whether it is Shanxi or Beizhili, as long as it is not the kind of farmers who have no news, I am afraid that there are not many people who don’t know who Fan Yongdou is.

"Good guy, Master Fan is actually hanging out among our group of people. Who believes it if you say it?"

Yu Shi licked his lips and rubbed his hands... Fan Yongdou's reputation is far above Zhang Han. He said that he has a net worth of millions, so he definitely didn't run away. No matter who Fan Yongdou comes with or what purpose he is coming, as long as he tied his ticket, he is afraid that he will get hundreds of thousands of silver. With money, he will do whatever he wants!

"Yu Dagui, there is no need to make a decision..." What a good person Fan Yongdou is. He understood Yu Shigan's thoughts at a glance. He smiled bitterly and said, "The business war between Jae-xia and Zhang Han was extremely poor. The family's wealth was almost lost. The people in the clan are not convinced by Jae-xia. The clan leader of the Fan family has to replace people. The assets of the eldest house of Jae-xia are used to calm the aura of everyone. Not only are they lost in wealth, but they also have no land and property. No matter what the big cabin wants to blackmail, it is difficult to get it."

The Fan family was indeed an inner pocket and lost miserably. After a year of business war, Zhang Hantou and Fan Yongdou made a low price, they almost kept losing money. After losing money, they finally lost due to the hard attacks of He Yusheng and Chang Wei. After losing the business path, everyone lost hope, including the financial backers and bigwigs who supported Fan Yongdou behind them.

Failure has a chain reaction. First, the funds cannot be completely operated, and then branches in various places are in losses and poor turnover, and then there is capital loss. Many shareholders withdraw their shares. The Fan family broke their teeth and sold land to return them. You should know that those shareholders are not vegetarians and are very capable. Otherwise, they can also get in touch with the big ones. The Fan family will not fall back and ignore them. If they dare to pay for the debt, it will not only be a matter of bankruptcy, but also a family will be jailed!
