Li An has long had the intention to exterminate the bandits around Hulu Valley, especially a few days ago, the people of Luzhou City, who were transporting supplies, were attacked by bandits, killing and injuring some people, which made Li An have the idea of shining his sword. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

However, at that time, the recruits and soldiers had not yet started training, and the soldiers of the six hundred dragon martial arts army also had their own tasks, and it was more than enough to resist the attack of bandits, but if it was to go into the mountains to suppress bandits, Li An knew that he did not have this strength, so he endured this breath for the time being.

Now, the Pingnan Army has been training for more than half a month, although it is far from the elite standard expected by Li An, but it is basically strong enough, and Li An feels that the effect of training in the valley is definitely not as good as the actual combat, so that the recruits and soldiers can really fight, so that they can understand where their defects are, so that they can better correct them.

When Li An recruited these recruits, he made a promise that he would not let the recruits go to war within three months of enlistment, but the right of interpretation belonged to Li An.

Obviously it is a combat mission, and Li An can also say that it is training, actual combat training.

The news brought by Li Fei Shouyu made Li An keenly aware that the bandits might not be able to sit still again, he learned a few days ago that the matter of the gold mine was already known to everyone in Luzhou City, so how could the bandits who gathered in the mountains and forests not know?

"What do these bandits want to do, are they preparing to attack Gourd Valley?"

Li An smiled at the corner of his mouth, with a look of contempt.

In his opinion, bandits are a group of rabble, no matter how many people and horses there are, they are also vulnerable, at least, the bandits definitely do not have the strength to attack Hulu Valley.

Lifei Shouyu also smiled: "The bandits are all rabble, attacking the gourd valley, I'm afraid they don't have this ability, but our gold always has to be shipped out, if they start in the middle of the road, it's really hard to guard against." ”

"Halfway to the road, this is very likely, the last time the people of Luzhou City were attacked, it was in the middle of the road, when the recruits had not yet started training, they didn't bother with these bandits, this time, if these bandits still dare to be presumptuous, they must not let them go."

Li An said righteously.

"Yes, now that they have appeared outside the East Valley, they must have come for the gold mines, we must be fully prepared, and we must not let these bandits rob us of our gold jewelry."

Li Fei Shouyu paused, and then said: "In addition to strengthening the guard in Hulu Valley, there must be enough soldiers and horses responsible for transporting jewelry, so that we can prevent trouble before it happens." ”

Li An didn't think so, paused, and said softly: "This can indeed avoid losses, but I plan to eliminate these bandits, and by the way, train new soldiers and soldiers, and see what level they have reached." ”

"Didn't you say that recruits don't fight for three months? Why are you going to have new recruits going out again? ”

Li Fei Shouyu did not lock tightly.

"It's not a war, it's actual combat training, real combat training, understand?"

Li An opened his mouth to correct.

"This is actual combat training, not war?"

Li Fei Shouyu immediately understood what Li An meant, this was a change of concept, actual combat training and combat are basically the same thing, just another way of speaking.

"It's yours, hehe!"

Li Fei Shouyu smiled and frowned: "It's been less than a month since the recruit training, so if you go to fight like this, will the casualties be very large?" ”

"The casualties will not be large, I am very confident in the soldiers I have trained, besides, this time it is actual combat training, as long as we can fight the bandits and train the Pingnan Army, it is enough, and there is no need to kill the bandits, besides, if we really kill the bandits, we will not be able to train in actual combat in the future."

Ang Lee said humorously.

"Hehe, I heard the history of Luzhou thorns, there are at least dozens of bandits in the mountains of Luzhou, and there are more than a dozen bandits around this gourd valley alone, and you are still afraid that there will be no bandits to train their troops."

Li Fei Shouyu said.

Li An said with a smile: "No matter how many bandits there are, we must save some use, step by step, eliminate the bandits little by little, and train the soldiers of our Pingnan Army." ”

"That's right, so this time, how are you going to deploy it?"

Li An thought for a moment, suddenly had an idea in his heart, and walked towards the special regiment with Li Fei Shouyu.

He had to give the reconnaissance team of the special regiment a difficult task, which was to find out the lair of the bandits, so that the main army could successfully launch a clearance.

"Nan Jiyun, can your team complete this task?"

Before Li An assigned the task, he asked Nan Jiyun how sure he was.

"The general can rest assured, as long as the bandits appear, they will definitely be able to find their lair."

Nan Jiyun confidently stated.

"Okay, tell the soldiers that this reconnaissance mission is very important, as long as you can find a bandit lair, all the soldiers who participated in the search will be rewarded."

Obviously, Li An was very satisfied with Nan Jiyun's answer, and in order to boost morale, he did not hesitate to give a heavy reward, of course, at this moment, Li An has a gold mine, and he is not short of money at all, as long as the soldiers under his command can make meritorious contributions, the reward is.

After handing over the investigation task to Nan Jiyun, Ang Lee went to Donggu and assigned a list of personnel to escort the gold jewelry early the next morning.

Li An had a hunch that as long as this batch of gold jewelry was sent out, it was very likely to be attacked by bandits, so he asked the dozen or so Longwu soldiers in charge of escorting them to wear heavy armor and equipped with shields and horizontal knives, and warned them that if a large number of bandits robbed the road, they would immediately give up all the jewelry and flee quickly.

"No harm, you are planning to give all these gold jewelry to the bandits, and then force them to reveal their whereabouts so that Nan Jiyun can follow them."

Li An smiled lightly: "That's right, that's it, the bandits' clothes are not much different from ordinary hunters, if you don't force them to show up and give them some gifts, it will be really difficult for Nan Jiyun to find the bandits' lair!" ”’

"What a plan, what a plan! However, it is better to give them heavy gifts as they can slow down their return to the lair and make it easier for the scouts to find them. ”

Li Fei Shouyu suggested.

How could Li An not think of this problem, he immediately ordered the craftsmen to take the copper nuggets as their hearts, pour a layer of gold water on the outside, and pretend to be gold nuggets, and such a 'big gold nugget' is more than 30 catties, and a total of more than 20 are made.

After arranging all this, Li An returned to the camp in Zhonggu with confidence, and he believed that before every evening, Nan Jiyun would definitely bring him good news.

That night, the special regiment of the Pingnan Army reconnoitred a team of Zhengnan Jiyun, with the recruits and soldiers under his command, quietly left Hulu Valley, and launched an operation in five ways, some searched in the mountains, and some set up an ambush in the direction of Luzhou City according to Li An's prior explanation, and covertly reconnoitred the traces of the bandits.

In order to avoid being discovered by bandits, all recruits and soldiers wore camouflage clothes, as long as they lay in the woods, it was difficult to be spotted ten steps away, twenty steps away, absolutely undetectable, and if it was at night, it was difficult to find even if they walked in front of them.

With camouflage clothes, Li An does not have to worry about the lives of the soldiers of the reconnaissance team at all, besides, they are all elite soldiers with one enemy and ten, even if they are discovered, they can quietly kill the bandits' sentinels, so as to save their lives.

Early the next morning, in the East Valley of the Hulu Valley, Tong Sanpang carefully checked the gold jewelry to ensure that there would be no mistakes.

"What is this?"

Tong Sanpang went to bed early early, and he didn't know what was going on with these twenty 'big gold nuggets'.

The soldiers of the Long Wu Army replied: "This is what General Li personally told to bring, and it was just made last night, so it must be brought." ”

"Hey, why didn't General Li tell me?"

Tong San Fat Fox was suspicious for a moment, but after thinking about it carefully, Li An naturally had a reason for Li An's arrangement, and besides, he would at least not suffer a loss if he transported such a few large pieces of gold to his jewelry store.

"Let's go! Let's go! Be careful on the road, these things are very expensive, and you must not go wrong in any way. ”

Tong Sanpang waved his hand, let Long Wujun go on the road, and went straight to the mine, asking the smelting craftsman what was going on with these twenty pieces of gold.

As Ang Lee expected, the bandits were indeed ambushed in the middle of the road.

There were more than 200 of them, and they were quietly hidden in the dense forest, and as long as they did not come within fifty paces, they could not be found at all.

The bandit leader and several small leaders stuck their heads out of the bushes from time to time, looked at the road leading from Hulu Valley to Luzhou City, and waited for the big fish to come to the door.

"The master, the family, there are more than a dozen soldiers in the Hulu Valley, carrying three truckloads of large and small boxes, are rushing here? It is estimated that it will arrive in a while. ”

A small leader deployed near the gourd valley ran to the cotton slope at great speed and reported the situation to the bandit leader.

"Three carts of boxes, it must be gold."

"Boss, this must be three carts of gold, let's do it!"

The small leaders of the bandits looked at the leader of the bandits with a look of longing.

The bandit leader was even more excited: "Grandma's, it's finally here, let the brothers get ready, we all want this vote." ”

"Yes, in charge, we want them all."

Soon, more than a dozen soldiers of the Longwu Army drove three single-horse wagons and entered the cotton slope.

"Boss, they came, and sure enough, there were only a dozen guards."

"Boss, let's do it!"

The bandit leader cautiously looked at the front and back of the road, and said softly: "Don't worry, let them get closer before starting." ”

After the soldiers of the Longwu Army fell into their encirclement, the greedy eyes of the bandit leader stared closely at the large boxes on the carriage, and shouted: "Brothers, kill ......"

"Kill ......"

More than 200 bandits quickly rushed to the soldiers of the Longwu Army on the road from both sides of the road, and they had the momentum of annihilating the soldiers of the Longwu Army in one fell swoop.

"Bandits, bandits, get out quickly."

The soldiers of the Long Wu Army, according to Li An's prior order, raised their shields to protect their bodies, quickly retreated, and fled in the direction of Hulu Valley.

"I was scared away before the fight started, and this group of officers and soldiers is nothing more than that, haha!"

"Yesterday there was a sharpshooter, and you thought they were all so good? Seeing that there are many of us, aren't you still scared to the bottom of the urine. ”

Several bandit leaders began to slowly regain their confidence, after all, compared to yesterday's archers, the dozen or so dragon martial artists at this time were cowards, which really made them despise.

"Wow, gold bracelet, there's a gold lock here."

"Haha! What a big gold brick. ”

"In charge, we have made a fortune, and these gold bricks alone are enough for us to use for a lifetime."

But the leader of the bandits smelled something not quite right, and scolded: "What are you talking about, this thing is full of evil nature, let the brothers speed up their movements, take the gold and evacuate quickly, and the village will be gathered." ”

The small leaders of the bandits, although they did not find anything evil, but the boss spoke, they naturally had to listen, and scolded the bandits to speed up their actions and take away all the gold they had robbed.

It was not until all the more than 200 brothers withdrew into the forest that the leader of the bandits secretly breathed a sigh of relief, in his opinion, as long as his brothers entered the woods, no amount of officers and soldiers could help them.

Not far from the cotton slope, Nan Jiyun was scattered in the woods with ten subordinates to search for traces of bandits, which was an important task given to him by Li An, and he had to complete it with quality and quantity.

However, there are too many mountains in Luzhou, and there are countless mountains near Hulu Valley alone, and searching for bandits is really a difficult task.

Moreover, the bandits did not write on their faces, and even if they found a suspicious person, they might have gone into the mountains to hunt.

"If you want to find the bandit's lair, you must first find the bandit, just follow the vine and touch the melon, but this bandit is really hard to find! I finally found two, and after following them for a long time, they were actually Orion, grandma's. ”

Nan Jiyun sat on a big rock with a deflated ass.

"The team is right, and found a group of bandits, more than 200 people, just five miles away on the cotton slope, and they also robbed the gold jewelry that the Long Wu Army wanted to send to Luzhou City."

"You can see clearly, more than two hundred bandits."

"I can see clearly, there are more than two hundred, I will come back to report the situation, and there are two people who are following."

Nan Jiyun was overjoyed: "Okay, I finally found the traces of the bandits, go, follow this gang of bandits." ”

Although this gang of bandits is numerous, once discovered, the consequences may be very serious, but Nan Jiyun is not afraid, wealth and danger are sought, if you don't keep up with this gang of bandits, how can you find the bandits' lair, how to complete the important task assigned by Li An?

Nan Jiyun took some of his soldiers and quickly rushed towards the bandits who were plundering the Longwu Army, and after discovering this group of bandits, he kept a distance of more than thirty steps from them and quietly followed them.

The vigilance of the bandits is still very high, and they turn around and look behind them from time to time, but Nan Jiyun and they are wearing camouflage clothes, as long as they are not too close, they will definitely not be able to find the abnormality behind them.

The bandit leader was very vigilant at first, feeling that it was too easy to get so much gold, and it seemed to reveal an evil nature, but the road was safe and sound, and he was getting closer and closer to his lair, and gradually relaxed his vigilance.

Thinking that so much gold and silver was enough for them to use for a lifetime, the bandit leader was also excited, and he was vigilant or something, and he had already thrown it out of the clouds.

At this time, the officers and soldiers of the reconnaissance team of the special regiment of the Pingnan Army had already touched this place and had a thorough understanding of the surrounding environment and the deployment of troops in the bandits' lair. (To be continued.) )
