It didn't rain very much, but it was precious for these crops that were in dire need of rain.

This rain has greatly alleviated the demand for water of the people of Wu County and ensured a bumper grain harvest this year.

With the help of this rain, in less than a month, the crops in the fields began to ripen. Judging from the current situation, the crops harvested this year are much more than in previous years, and the people of Wu County will not worry about grain next year.

"Report to Your Highness, the grain in Chen Village in the eastern suburbs of the county has been robbed by bandits." Liu Yuan hurriedly came and reported to Yang Yun, who had just gotten up.

Yang Yun was taken aback when he heard this, no wonder these bandits have not moved in the past few months, it turns out that these guys are quietly planning to rob the people of the grain they planted.

The people had been working hard for a year, and when it was time to harvest, they came to steal the fruits of their labor. How can this be done, if you don't give them a hard blow, where will the people still have the enthusiasm to continue to grow good food in the coming year!

Yang Yun called Guo Long, Ju Yuanguang, Zhong Wenrui and others together to discuss how to deal with this matter. In the end, everyone decided to use all the soldiers in the county, and even the bandits in the Rhino Valley and Sajiaogou were sent out to guard each place.

However, this proved to be futile, and after a few days, the bandits took all the grain from another village, and killed a few civilians who were desperately trying to protect it.

Although the land area of Kure County is not large, it is scattered all over the county. The number of soldiers and bandits in the two stockades in the county town was limited, and it was impossible to take care of every place.

And bandits such as Zhang Kainiu and Wu Laoqi, who have lived in this place for decades, know the terrain here well. They always found a place where no one was guarding them, and they quickly collected the food.

Several villages had their grain taken away by the bandits, and many people died, and the common people complained bitterly that the bandits were insatiable, but they also talked about the inaction of the county government.

Regarding this matter, the wise men such as Guo Long and Ju Yuanguang felt that there was nothing they could do. The bandits seemed to know where they were hiding, and they wouldn't show up if there was an ambush anyway.

And the county soldiers and the two cottage people did not take care of the place, but they would appear just right. He quickly collected all kinds of food, and then hid in the mountains.

Just when Yang Yun and the others were at a loss, someone came in to report that Yan Xiong from Rhino Valley was here. Yang Yun was very happy when he heard this, Yan Xiong must have good suggestions when he came at this time.

Yan Xiong of Rhino Valley and Liu Haini of Saojiaogou were actually Yang Yun's people, and only a very few people within Yang Yun's forces knew about this matter.

So when Yan Xiong came to the county seat, he was also very low-key, wearing a big hat. When walking around in the county, no one knew that this was Yan Xiong, the famous Rhino Valley cottage master in Huohuo, Wu County.

"Godfather inside please! Come and sit here and have tea, please. Yang Yun personally welcomed Yan Xiong into the hall.

"Yun'er, we can't catch them now. In the entire territory of Wu County, we and Liu Haini's cottages, and even in your county, there are people planted by various bandits.

Where are your soldiers in ambush? Where are our people in ambush? None of them are difficult to know, so it is impossible to catch them. Yan Xiong looked at the people in the hall and said seriously.

"Since my godfather has made a special trip to solve this matter, I would like to ask your old man to give me advice." Yang Yun said with a smile, Guo Long, Zhong Wenrui, and the people in the hall, as well as Ju Yuanguang, also looked at Yan Xiong, waiting for him to say his own way.

"We have their people here, and of course they have our people there! It's up to you to see who can do the best of these people. Yan Xiong said with a smile.

"Boss Zhang, your method is really good, we have gotten so much food these few times, which village are we going to today?" In the Eight Kings Village, Wu Laoqi said to Zhang Kainiu with a smile.

The harvest has been very good in the past few days, and Wu Laoqi is very happy. has been suppressed by this newcomer King Wu for so long, and finally has a chance to raise his eyebrows.

"I'm a rough man, how can I come up with such a good solution? These are all good ideas that our military advisors have come up with. Zhang Kainiu said with a smile.

"The same method can't be used for too long, we have already made so much food, and if we do it twice, we will have to stop." Zhang Xiu picked up the folding fan in his hand and fanned it a few times, his expression was very calm, but there was still a hint of smugness from the tips of his eyebrows and the corners of his mouth.

Qiaojia Village is a relatively remote mountain village in Wu County. Although the village is not large, it has a very fertile land, and the grain harvest is always good.

This year, God is very face-saving, the crops are growing very well, although there was a small drought some time ago, but the White Lotus Sect Master successfully asked for rain and solved the urgent need for crops, so this year's harvest is particularly good.

The villagers of Qiaojia Village were particularly happy, seeing that the ears of rice in the fields were about to ripen, and they were planning to start harvesting in a few days. On this day, as soon as the sky was bright, a group of bandits suddenly broke into the village, and without saying a word, they picked up the tools in their hands and began to harvest the grain in the fields.

Everyone in Qiaojia Village is very anxious, this is everyone's ration for the next year! Of course, they were not reconciled, and let the bandits rob them of their rations for the coming year. So, with hoes in hand, the villagers rushed towards the bandits, who were harvesting their own grain.

As soon as the villagers rushed to the edge of the field, they saw a rain of arrows coming at them, and several people in front of them fell in pools of blood, and the women and children of the village screamed in fright. There were also some villagers who wept bitterly as they hugged their loved ones who had fallen in pools of blood.

The village head, Qiao Shan, who is over 60 years old this year, has a particularly high reputation in Qiaojia Village, and he is very anxious when he sees this situation. Knowing that these bandits in the mountains robbed a lot of grain in other villages a few days ago, and killed some people who guarded the food, I didn't expect these guys to come to their own villages today.

"Retreat! Go back to your own home. Qiao Shan shouted loudly, the food is gone, you can plant it again, and if your life is gone, there is really nothing! So Qiao Shan desperately dissuaded everyone.

However, there are several families in the village, seeing that the food they have worked so hard to grow, is about to be snatched away by the bandits, and their relatives are lying in a pool of blood, they can't control their anger and want to fight the bandits.

"Go back, go back to the village quickly, the food is gone, we can still find another way, the bandits are too vicious, and the number is very large, we can't lose our lives in vain." Qiao Shan stood in front of the villagers, desperately blocking the villagers who wanted to rush towards the bandits.

A long arrow hit Qiao Shan's vest, and the tip of the arrow peeked out of his chest. Immediately afterward, two more arrows struck him. The clothes on Qiao Shan's body were immediately stained red with bright red blood, and he shouted with his last strength: "Go back!" ”

Seeing Qiao Shan fall to the ground softly, his eyes were still looking in the direction of the villagers, and his hand was still waving in the direction of the villagers, signaling them to quickly withdraw to the village.

In desperation, the villagers had to endure their grief and retreat to the village, watching as the bandits snatched the food they had worked so hard to grow.

This group of bandits often did this kind of thing during this time, and their movements were already very skillful, they picked up the sickle in their hands and quickly cut off the ears of rice and put them in the pockets they carried with them. Soon after, the crops that the villagers of Qiaojia Village had worked so hard to grow this year were harvested.

After harvesting the crops, the bandits did not hesitate, carrying heavy ears of rice on their backs, and withdrew outside the village. As soon as the bandits reached the village, they found a group of soldiers armed with knives and guns, blocking their way.

"Oh no, how can there be officers and soldiers coming? Didn't the cable newspaper say that they wouldn't come to Qiaojia Village today? Looking at this group of soldiers who were waiting for the battle, Zhang Kainiu said to himself.

It turned out that according to Yan Xiong's suggestion, Yang Yun deliberately issued an order among the soldiers, and today he was going to ambush in several villages outside the city to block the bandits' action of grabbing food, but before leaving, he gathered the soldiers together and came to the outside of the city to wait for the news from the mountains.

Yang Yun's order was quickly notified to the bandits in the mountains by the spies planted among the soldiers by the bandits, so Zhang Kainiu could safely and boldly raid Qiaojia Village.

And the people arranged by Yan Xiong among the bandits passed the news that Zhang Kainiu was going to raid Qiaojia Village with the bandits today to the middle of the county seat. Liu Yuan and the others, who got the news, immediately rushed to Qiaojia Village. The distance of Qiaojia Village is relatively far from the county seat, so when these bandits finished harvesting the crops and were about to leave, Liu Yuan rushed over with people.

Since arriving in Wu County for so long, bandits and county soldiers have fought several major battles, and irreconcilable contradictions have been formed. So as soon as the two sides met, they didn't even try it, and directly started a tragic fight.

These bandits are outlaws, and they know that if they don't fight hard, everyone will die here. Therefore, under the leadership of Zhang Kainiu and Wu Laoqi and others, these people roared and rushed towards the officers and soldiers.

But there were many more officers and soldiers than they were, almost two or three people fighting one. So despite the ferocity of these bandits, they were still no match for the officers and soldiers, so it didn't take long for the bandits to be at a disadvantage.

But what made them even more desperate was that at this time, the villagers of Qiaojia Village saw that these bandits were blocked by officers and soldiers, and they immediately came to their senses. They immediately grabbed their poles, hoes, kitchen knives and axes, and rushed towards the bandits with shouts, wanting to take back their food and avenge their relatives.

This became the last straw that crushed the camel. These bandits collapsed at once under the attack of the villagers and officers and soldiers of Qiaojia Village, and they began to drop the food bags on their backs and desperately fled in all directions.
