That night, Yang Yun was sleeping soundly, and suddenly a spirit woke up and felt that the situation around him was different.

He immediately woke up a few girls and walked out of the courtyard, his spiritual power spread out like invisible tentacles, and after a closer look, he found that there were unknown people moving around the station.

"It's really a bandit, he even dares to attack the post station set up by the government...... Yang Yun pondered worriedly.

Although he has superpowers, he always has too many enemies, and he is a group of bloodthirsty bandits who burn, kill, and plunder all kinds of evil, and a few little Loli around him need to be protected, and it is easy to have accidents when they are flawless.

"Whew."

Just when Yang Yun was thinking about how to avoid the disaster, suddenly the wooden arrow tower that served as a sentry not far away caught fire.

Later, I heard the sound of "swish", and some people put rockets on the side of the post house, and the houses of this era were mostly thatched wooden structures, and many houses caught fire.

"Oh no, there's a thief!" The post house itself has officials on duty, but the number of people does not exceed ten, and they are all panicked when they see this situation.

The most terrifying thing is that it is so dark that you can't even find out where the enemy is.

As the post house caught fire, the people in the caravan got up from their sleep, and they had a plan to disperse the goods after getting up, and then divide the people into several squads to prevent the bandits from attacking.

Fighting the fire is also being carried out at the same time, but because there are too many fire points and the fire is too big, this move is purely futile.

Yang Yun took a few little loli to find Lei Jiao, and at this time Lei Jiao was listening to Ruan Yue's report: "...... Two brothers were wounded, and the thieves were lying in ambush in the wilderness, and there was no trace of them in the night, and it seemed that there were quite a few of them. ”

Lei Jiao's face tightened, and said: "Don't use force first, avoid a life-and-death feud, send someone to negotiate with them, and spend money to solve the problem...... Lao Zhang, you go. ”

As the boss of this caravan, Lei Jiao naturally would not negotiate with the bandits, so he asked the second steward Zhang Lin to go, Zhang Lin is smooth and good at communicating, let him communicate with the thieves, maybe he can get a certain effect.

"When did the thief ever be reasonable? Take advantage of the fact that they don't know the details of our side, and don't dare to rashly launch an attack, so leave their wealth and goods to break through! We went to the county seat of Zhifangyi, the capital of Suizhou, and invited officers and soldiers to enter the suppression, and when the time came, it would be ...... to take back the goods from them."

Zhang Lin's face was full of fear, obviously not wanting to take on this dangerous errand.

Lei Jiao shook his head categorically: "The enemy situation is unknown, how can you leave something and run away?" Besides, it takes at least two or three hours to break through and go to the county seat of Suizhou Prefecture to seek help, and then the thieves will escape into the wilderness, where will they find their goods? Go and find out their conditions first, and you can solve the problem with a small amount of money, and it is better not to use force...... Just go! ”

Zhang Lin couldn't refuse, took people out, and came back for a long time.

The night was dark, and one of the people he had taken out was wounded and was carried back.

"Lao Zhang, how is it?"

When Lei Jiao saw Zhang Lin, he stepped forward nervously.

Zhang Lin sighed: "The thief asked for six hundred guan as soon as he opened his mouth, and if he threatened not to give it, the caravan would not be left behind." ”

Lei Jiao was furious: "Let's go to Luoyang and Chang'an, and remove the expenses along the way, we can't earn a total of 600 yuan. Don't thieves know the strength of our Liu family's caravan and dare to threaten them like this? ”

Zhang Lin said with a bitter face: "The thieves are clearly coming for us. ”

"If you are in charge, you should leave your wealth and goods to break through...... Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, and constantly suffer from the chaos! Someone next to him said tremblingly.

"Never!"

Zhang Lin's eyes were full of fear, and he said loudly, "I have seen their men and horses, complete bows and crossbows, and equipped with armor, more than three or four hundred men and horses, and the general grass is not comparable at all, and I am afraid that the whole army will be wiped out if I break through in a hurry." ”

"What? The thieves actually have armor, it can't be impersonated by officials and soldiers, right? ”

"Not necessarily, Suizhou is located at the junction of Jiannan Road and Shannan West Road, and it is difficult to guarantee that it is not the officers and soldiers on the side of Shannan West Road who came to fight the autumn wind after disguise!"

"Yes, we used to walk this road a lot, how have we ever seen such a fierce bandit? The reason why they didn't leave them alive was probably because they were worried that the news would leak out! ”

Everyone was gossiping, and finally everyone's eyes fell on Reggio, and someone hurriedly said: "Boss, come up with an idea." ”

As the helmsman of this caravan, Reggio looked hesitant.

Usually he is very decisive in trading, but at this moment, he does not dare to gamble with the lives of hundreds of people under him.

Yi Cheng came over and urged: "Lei is in charge, don't waste your life, or you give the money to ...... first Or immediately send someone to Suizhou Prefecture to ask for help? ”

In the eyes of the people at the post station, this time he belonged to the "unjustified disaster", if it wasn't for the Liu family's caravan coming to take refuge at night, the robbers would not have attacked in groups. The house burned down and didn't feel distressed, anyway, the government would rebuild it, but they didn't want to give up their lives because of this, and persuaded Lei Jiao to break his wealth to avoid disaster.

"As the steward of the caravan, the head of the family is entrusted with important tasks, and the old man has no right to hand over the goods to the thief...... First, send people to break through the siege and ask for help, fortify along the perimeter of the post station, and kill the thieves when they come...... After dawn, find out the enemy's situation and then find a way out. ”

Lei Jiao is old and serious, knowing that he can't mess with himself at this time, the most important thing is to prevent thieves from coming in and arrange people to do defensive matters.

……

……

Yang Yun had been listening and felt that something was wrong.

Based on his previous observation and judgment, the number of thieves should not exceed 100, not that his spiritual power can detect all the situations within a mile or two, but he can basically judge from the existing news that if there are really three or four hundred thieves, and the equipment is as good as Zhang Lin said, it will not be so bluffing, just kill it directly, with the caravan, the hundred and ten people can not resist at all, one hundred.

"There are ghosts in this forest."

Yang Yun secretly speculated, but he didn't dare to say his true thoughts.

Zhang Lin is the old man of the Liu family in the end, and he has won the trust of the head of the family, otherwise he would not be able to rise to today's position, and it stands to reason that colluding with the mountain bandits will not do him any good.

However, Yang Yun felt that if there was no internal response in the caravan, it would be impossible for the thieves to know the situation of the caravan well, not only accurately intercepted the caravan at Fengting Station, but also roughly calculated the total value of the goods transported by the caravan, and issued a figure of six hundred yuan, indicating that the caravan could get the money.

Yang Yun listened to Lei Jiao, Liu Tong and others' analysis of the terrain and landforms around Fengtingyi, as well as the layout of the defense, which deepened the speculation that there were ghosts.

"Fengtingyi to the southwest, to pass through a canyon to rush to Suizhou Prefecture Zhifangyi, the thieves are now stuck in the throat of the canyon, that is to say, the nearest road for help has been cut off, if you break through from the side to ask for help, you have to detour more than 20 miles, or a rugged mountain road...... Don't say that tomorrow is dawn, and it is impossible to find reinforcements even at noon. ”

Ruan Yue is very experienced, and he has a good control of the situation, and said with a dark face.

Zhang Lin said: "What should I do then?" Sitting still? Boss Lei, if we still give in and hand over our goods, we can't give up the lives of our brothers because of a moment of righteousness. ”

"Alas!"

Lei Jiao sighed heavily, saw Yang Yun contemplating beside him, and said apologetically: "This incident has nothing to do with Brother Yang, I never thought that Brother Yang would be involved in such a catastrophe. ”

Yang Yun was very free and easy, and said: "At this time, we should share weal and bene, why did Lei Dangjia say such things?" ”

Lei Jiao was deeply moved when he heard this, and asked, "I wonder what Brother Yang thinks about this matter?" ”

Yang Yun said: "If we stay here and wait for reinforcements to come, it is no different from sitting and waiting to die...... Now that the initiative is completely in the hands of the thief, why don't you try to attack in one direction first, and test the reality of the thief? This will not only show our determination and courage to resist to the end, but also make those at both ends of the caravan discourage the idea of running away and fight to the death! ”

Lei Jiao's eyes showed a look of approval, but Zhang Lin angrily reprimanded: "What the hell do you come up with, it's like hitting a stone with an egg...... Originally, we didn't have any problems with our people's safety, but now we are going to be killed by your kid! You are a dead star, you must have been in the caravan to cause this big trouble. ”

"Shut up!"

Lei Jiao shouted, and then said to Yang Yun in a relatively relaxed tone, "Brother Yang's suggestion is still too risky, attacking in the dark is likely to trigger the trap set by the thieves, once the attack is damaged, there will be casualties, after all, it will cause the morale of my caravan to plummet, which will be greatly detrimental to the follow-up defense!" ”

Zhang Lin said disdainfully: "This kid doesn't understand anything, but he is making a lot of nonsense here, it's unreasonable!" ”

Yang Yun smiled and said: "I have no experience in business, but I have been on the battlefield, commanded the battle of Pingnanban, and finally won the victory...... I wonder if Lei Dangjia is willing to listen to the next word? ”

"Haha."

Usually Yang Yun is very popular in the team, but now Yang Yun's words sound too much like bragging, and the people around him laughed loudly under Zhang Lin's lead.

Zhang Lin said: "Stinky boy, don't be fooled by us, you said you have been on the battlefield?" Have you also led troops to war? Why don't you say that the Xichuan War was won by you? ”

Only Lei Jiao didn't smile, looking at Yang Yun, a little puzzled on his face.

Yang Yun said, "Have you ever heard of the fire charm?" ”

"But in the Battle of Jinchuan in Iasi, the fire charm that helped my Tang Heavenly Army win? I heard that this is a Taoist magic weapon deployed by the famous Wuzun Dao Master. ”

Ruan Yue had some insight and explained to the people around him, "I heard that the fire charm is extremely powerful, as long as it is lit, it can raise flames and illuminate the four directions, and if it is used in a narrow area, it will be more effective. ”

Yang Yun nodded and said: "What Ruan Dangjia said is true, he is not talented, and he happens to carry some fire charms by his side, which may help you thieves." ”

"Brother Yang, don't laugh."

Ruan Yue looked at Yang Yun and said in shock.

Everyone present was surprised, but their faces were full of disbelief, they didn't think that Yang Yun really had a fire charm.

Lei Jiao tilted his head and asked in a low voice, "Brother Yang, are you ...... Is there really such a thing? ”

Yang Yun nodded: "Yes, yes, but there are not many of them, if you don't believe it, you can wait for a while, and get it below." ”

Lei Jiao took a breath and said, "If that's the case, maybe you can fight the thieves." ”

"Boss Lei!"

Zhang Lin's face was full of dissatisfaction.

Lei Jiao raised his hand to interrupt what Zhang Lin was about to say, and said: "I am waiting for the order of the head of the family to pledge the goods to the north, and the responsibility is heavy. If the host suspects that we are colluding with the thieves, you here will lose your current jobs at the least, or you may be imprisoned for the crime and affect your family, so why bother? ”

"Now with the help of Brother Yang, even if he is defeated, he can also inflict huge damage on the thieves, even if he still loses his wealth in the end, he is worthy of the kindness of the head of the family, and he has an explanation for all aspects!"
