The Golden Age - Chapter 112
Yu Wencheng moved his lips slightly, but did not speak.
He knew that although Yuan Shangyu was tough, he was right.
Baihuying is the strongest soldier and horse in the three guards of Xiling, or the elite soldiers and horses in Xiling.
Such a cavalry is closely related to Yuwen’s family.
As the strongest soldier in Xiling, if even a band of thieves can’t be annihilated, or even defeated in the opponent’s hand, he will not only make the officers and soldiers fall sharply, causing the Yuwen’s reputation to be severely attacked, but certainly To allow more pirates to have ambitions, Uwen County, but the stability of the entire Xiling will be threatened.
Yuan Shangyu claimed that Baihuying wouldn’t make a shot. It must be the first to win. The reason is simple. Baihuying’s thieves are not just military operations, but more factors are involved behind them.
“In fact, it is not impossible to find out the situation of Jigong Gorge.” When the account was silent, Qin Xiao suddenly said.
Yuwen Chengchao and Yuan Shangyu looked at Qin Xiao at the same time.
“Wang Xiao, do you have a way?” Yu Wencheng’s eyes lit up.
Somehow, although the young man in front of him looked unpretentious, Yuwen Chengchao always felt that this kid had an unexpected ability.
Qin Xiao respectfully said: “Princess, you just said that Ding Zixiu occupies a dangerous place, and with his caution, he will guard against the encirclement and suppression of officers and soldiers.”
“That’s nature.” Yu Wencheng said noddingly: “He hates me for getting into the bone, and he knows that I can’t tolerate him. Not to mention whether they robbed the Qilian Mountain Racecourse, even if there is no such thing, as long as I get his news, He must not be let go. He knows this well.”
“So the eldest son said that he would store a lot of food on the mountain to prevent the siege of officers and men.” Qin Xiaodao said: “With the food in hand, he can consume it with the officers and men.”
Yuwen Chengchao nodded and said: “This is a matter of course, he will definitely do so.”
“Princess, according to this, he will be collecting food everywhere.” Qin Xiaodao said: “Now it is September, and it is also the time of autumn harvest. Ding Zixiu certainly knows that it is best to collect food and grab food at this time. Timing.”
Yu Wencheng and Yuan Shangyu glanced at each other. Yuan Shangyu seemed to have come to understand it, raised his eyebrows, and smiled: “Wang Xiao, you mean, Ding Zixiu will send people to rob food, and this is our chance?”
Qin Xiao nodded and said: “If you change to me, if you want to store food, you can never miss this season. People can receive food, they can plunder, and riches store food, they will also shoot. Anyway, as the grandson said, the more food The more the better, he can sit back and relax when he has enough food. He can’t produce food on the mountain, he can only go down to grab the food.”
“Yeah.” Yuwen Chengchao excitedly said: “As long as their people start, we set up ambush, and those who catch them can understand the situation on the mountain from the prisoner’s mouth.”
The fat fish also smiled, came over and patted Qin Xiao’s shoulder, and said with a smile: “Brother Wang, you really do, this brain is aura.”
Yu Wencheng said to Yuan Shangyu: “Yuan command, brother Wang’s idea is practical.” He walked to the map and looked carefully before he said: “Jigongxia is only forty miles to the west, which is Pingqiu County, around Pingqiu County. Villages and towns will send grain to the county, and then they will be escorted to Fucheng. Recently, the autumn harvest has begun. Pingqiu County has a lot of grain storage. Will Ding Zixiu send people to the county to grab the grain warehouse?”
“The humble will not think that.” Yuan Shangyu shook his head: “Although Ding Zixiu wants to grab the grain and store it, he dare not expose his tracks, nor dare to jump out and become the target of the government. To rob Pingqiu County, a dozen Individuals can’t do it. At least 40 or 50 people can be successful. If so many people go to the county to grab food, Ding Zixiu should have no such guts. Even if Ding Zixiu has such a plan, but when will they do it, we can’t. Sure, we can’t always arrange people to ambush in the county and wait for them to appear?”
“Moving soldiers and horses to ambush in the county, it is easy to leak the wind.” Qin Xiaodao said: “Ding Zixiu had a frustrating lesson in the past. He must be very careful in his actions. He really wants to rob the county’s grain depot, and he will definitely be in the county beforehand. Arrange the spies to make the situation in the city clear. The commanding lord said that we must hunt them down, we must not lie in ambush, otherwise we will not achieve the purpose of killing them. , The spies will also notice that the situation is wrong.”
Yu Wencheng nodded and said: “As long as they find something wrong, Ding Zixiu will not dare to shoot.”
“When did Ding Zixiu send people down the mountain and grab the grain, we couldn’t guess his mind.” Yuan Shangyu frowned: “Even if we are under the cloth around the Jigong Gorge and wait for their people to go down the mountain and grab the grain, We get the news again, and the thief Kou Ding will withdraw long ago.”
Qin Xiao lowered his head in silence and thought for a while before saying: “We don’t need to go to them, just let them find us.”
“Look for us?” Yu Wen Cheng Zhao stunned.
Qin Xiao also walked to the side of the map, pointed to Pingqiu County on the map, and moved to Fenggan Fucheng, saying: “From Pingqiu County to Fenggan Fucheng, there are more than one hundred mile. The eldest son said that Pingqiu County will accept the surrounding Village and town food, and then send people to Fenggan Fucheng.” Fingers up, “Master, lead the adults, you see, the south of the road from Pingqiu County to Fucheng is Jigong Gorge, from Jigong Gorge. Down the mountain, to this official road, but only thirty or forty miles.”
Yuwen Chengchao was also a shrewd person. As soon as Qin Xiao finished his first part of his speech, he immediately understood Qin Xiao’s meaning, looked at the map, and slowly said: “From Pingqiu County to **** food to Fucheng, Ding Zixiu may send the message People looted grain trucks directly on the way.”
“If we set a trap and wait for them to hook, we can capture on the spot.” Yuan Shangyu smiled lightly: “After catching these captives, you can learn the details of Jigongxia from their mouths.”
The fat fish worried: “If he catches Ding Zixiu, he will be alert, and if he wants to sneak in silently, it will be even more difficult.”
Yuan Shangyu said: “They are guarding the suspension bridge, it is very difficult to attack them from the beginning. Since this is the case, they can only figure out their situation and then deploy.”
“Lord Master, in fact….. It may not be possible to launch a sneak attack.” Qin Xiao hesitated before saying: “There is an idea below, and I don’t know whether it is feasible.”
Yuwen Chengchao was quite excited, saying: “Sit down and discuss, don’t worry.”
That night, the lights in Yuan Shangyu’s tent were on until early in the morning. Before dawn, Yuwen Chengchao came out of the tent and took the fat fish and Zhao Yi with him quietly away.
Yuwen County has jurisdiction over nine counties, and the taxation of nine counties is collected by Yuwen.
During the autumn harvest every year, the counties will successively deliver the grains to Fenggan City. Pingqiu County has a lot of arable land. The annual payment of grain is among the best among the nine counties.
The county town of Xiling is naturally far from comparable to the county town of Guannei.
The general county towns are larger than the towns in the Guan Nei, and the Xiling area is sparsely populated. Although the city of Fenggan is large and lively, the population of each county town is not large.
At dusk, a team escorting a vehicle from Pingqiu County walked slowly on the official road and headed for Fenggan City.
There are not many people escorting more than 30 carts of food.
In the early years, the **** of grain needed to be accompanied by a lot of strong soldiers, and some counties even hired people from the Escort Bureau.
After all, after the chaos of Wu Tuo, pirates were rampant on the ground of Xiling for several years. Every convoy passing through the ground of Xiling had to face the attack of pirates at any time.
Many caravans thus interrupted trade and caused a huge blow to the prosperity of Xiling.
Xilingdu Hufu and Xiling Gate Valves teamed up to fight the Xiling pirates, annihilate countless pirates, and also let many pirates die, and the business road was reopened. Although there are still robbers in Xiling today, and whether there are caravans robbed, all pirates know that they can move the caravan occasionally, but it is better not to act rashly.
A gust of wind Ding Zixiu attacked the grain squad that was transported to Fucheng, causing Yuwen’s thunder to mobilize his soldiers to kill him When you touch it, the manpower for the **** team is greatly saved.
Guandao is not a flat road. In some places, the road is rugged. The **** team is the grain officer of the county. Looking at the sky, it turned back and said loudly: “Everyone hurry up and rush to Fucheng at night. A big restaurant will give you a good meal.”
The crowd cheered and their spirits doubled.
Not far south of the official road, there is a high slope. At this moment, a group of people leaned over in the thick grass of the high slope, overlooking the convoy.
“Three masters, do you want to start?” One person looked at the team and turned to look at a man on the side.
The man was in his early forties, with a bear on his back and a black beard and a pair of eyes looking at the team from afar.
More than a dozen people under his hands are holding knives, but these three masters are holding a big axe in one hand.
“Wait a minute.” San Dangdang looked cautious: “Will there still be their staff nearby?”
“Three heads, you are too careful.” The man said: “The day before yesterday, we had a brother reported that Pingqiu County was going to transport food to Fucheng. On the same day, a group of food trucks passed by. You said you can’t act lightly. The team entered the city smoothly. Today is the second batch. If you let it go again, you may not have such a good opportunity in the future.”
“Three heads, I shipped a dozen cars the day before yesterday, this time more than twice as many times as last time.” Another whispered: “Pingqiu County only has a lot of food, I’m afraid it’s almost all shipped. Dadang said There is nothing else missing on the mountain now, what is lacking is food, let us do everything possible to save more food.”
The previous man said: “We will not grow grain, even if it is, where will there be land for us? You said you were going to kill the county town to grab grain, and the master has repeatedly told you not to go to the city, it is to find death, since If we do not enter the city, we will only be able to rob food.”
“This is the official food sent to Fucheng.” San Dangjia is still a little worried: “You said, if the official food is robbed, will the official house and Yuwen family trouble us?”
“Three masters, we are thieves. If we don’t grab food, they will find us in trouble.” The man on the side opened his eyes wide: “Do we have to be polite with the government? You also know that big masters and Yuwens are incompatible. However, he vowed that one day he would send Yuwen Chengchao thousands of dollars, and that these grains were sent to Fucheng to Yuwen’s family, so he should grab it and avenge him.”
San Dangdang still hesitated, and the people on the side persuaded: “San Dangdang, if you really want to make a big contribution, the big Dangdang will be impressed. Haven’t you always coveted the second Dangdang’s wife? Robbed this batch of food, maybe big Give the fox spirit to you at home, you can play as much as you want without having to think about it every day.”
“Fuck your mother’s shit.” San Dangjia scolded: “When does Lao Tzu covet the Nassau fox? It’s the Nassau fox who sees Lao Tzu and flirts at Lao Tzu, obviously to seduce me. Not to mention me and Er Duo. Being a good brother, how can you win the love?”
“The second headed family is getting worse and worse, and the third headed body is strong and strong, and a woman likes it.” The man on the side whispered: “Maybe second wife really wants to be your wife, three Be the master, say something that you shouldn’t say, if you make a big contribution, don’t say the second lady, I’m afraid that the position of the second master will be given to you.”
San Dangyi’s righteousness: “You talk nonsense again, I will hack you with an axe. What do you think of me? Brother and wife, don’t bully, am I like Chen Zhitai?” Hesitated and asked in a low voice Dao: “You said that you have made a contribution, and the big master really rewards me with that kind of stuff?”
