The terrain here is a bit complicated, and based on Duan Bailan's years of experience, he speculated that there might be mountain bandits in this kind of place. This thing was really as he expected, and the people who went to explore the road did find that there were many men with weapons on the mountain, and they knew that they were local mountain bandit organizations by looking at their clothes.

The mountain bandits are just those scoundrels among the people, because they are lazy and lazy, and they rely on their own strength, so they combine to form a team, to put it bluntly, they are a group of rabble. However, these people are simple-minded and upright, and if they can be arranged reasonably, they will also be of great use to the imperial court.

"I have sent someone to check the mountain terrain on this side, and I found that it is not difficult to take it. It doesn't take too many people to deal with the mountain bandits, about 20 people. Duan Bailan explained to Xu Shiyuan.

Xu Shiyuan was ordered by him, so he naturally wanted to listen to Duan Bailan's orders, and then transferred some people according to his wishes. In order to avoid startling the snakes, and wanting to find out how many people there were in these mountain bandits, Duan Bailan disguised himself and pretended to be a passing businessman.

He took two or three people and went towards the place where the mountain bandits were, this matter naturally couldn't be hidden from Liu Nianru, every day she carefully observed the other party's every move, and saw Duan Bailan dressing herself up as an ordinary person, and guessed in her heart that this was going to enter the tiger's den, so she also quietly slipped out of the barracks and followed them all the way.

"Lord Wang, did you say that this bandit would come out? We've been walking for two hours, and we haven't seen a fly. "A soldier was so tired that he would not have been willing to come and suffer such a crime if it weren't for the military orders.

"Don't panic. You have also worked hard this time, and you will be rewarded when you go back. Duan Bailan spoke without breathing, as if she was taking a leisurely walk. He understands the fatigue of his subordinates, and there must be a reward and punishment mechanism in the barracks, otherwise the soldiers will not have the fighting spirit. I have to say that this really worked, and the people who followed were obviously in much better spirits.

Duan Bailan was sure that the mountain bandits had already set their sights on them, and they didn't come out for so long just to observe. The crowd walked for another half an hour, and sure enough, a group of men stopped them.

I saw that the faces of the people in front of me were full of meat, and there were shocking scars on their bodies, and the machete on the waist seemed to have just been sharpened, emitting a frightening silver cold light. The soldiers behind him had also experienced the battle, and this bit of formation could not scare them. Seeing the arrogant appearance of the mountain bandits and no one in their eyes, they couldn't help laughing.

The bandits laughed at themselves when they saw the intercepted people, obviously feeling offended. So he picked up the machete and put it on Duan Bailan's neck, looking at these people even more arrogantly.

This trick really worked, and the soldiers behind him became very nervous when they saw this scene, and they didn't dare to be presumptuous. It's not that they were worried that this person would hurt Duan Bailan, but no one had ever been an opponent of His Royal Highness King Ding before, let alone this kind of mountain bandit. If he is in a bad mood, this person is afraid that he will die immediately.

"The king... Childe, don't be impulsive. The soldier said and looked at the fellow with very pitiful eyes. This hero, we are just a small business, you can let our son-in-law go. "This taxi

Bing's implication was to remind Duan Bailan not to do anything to others, otherwise the plan would be exposed.

As if remembering something, the mountain bandits on the side whispered to the machete-wielding man: "I heard that the army of the imperial court is about to arrive at us, didn't the big boss not let us cause trouble?" ”

The big man was obviously in a hurry, and angrily rebuked: "This mouthful of meat can still watch them slip away!" Anyway, it's already stopped, or I'll kill them. ”

"And kill! The government has been eyeing us for a long time, if you make trouble again, the big boss will stew you! ”

"Then what do you say, what if they leave and report to the official." The big man is like a stunned young man, doing things on a rampage, never thinking about the consequences. When the leader of the mountain bandits heard that the imperial army was passing here, he had already ordered that he should not intercept others again, so as not to invite death, but some people just did not listen.

The man touched his chin and thought for a moment, and said, "Since it has been stopped, I will arrest them back first, and if they can be a hard laborer, we will release them back when the wind has passed." ”

The people around felt that this matter was feasible, so they tied up Duan Bailan and the others and put them in the stockade. They were first left in the courtyard, and two people were found to watch them to prevent them from escaping. Liu Nianru did not hide in the shadows and guard them all the time, but blended into the opponent's enemy camp with light skills.

The village itself is not large, and it is not difficult to guess where the bandit leader is by looking at the surrounding decorations. Looking at a house facing north and facing south, with a sheep's head hanging in the hall, you can see that the identity of the owner of this house is definitely not an ordinary person. Liu Nianru took advantage of the guards' unpreparedness, so she climbed to the top of the house, lifted a tile and observed secretly, and after a while, someone walked in.

"Big boss, that idiot caught a few more people up the mountain, I can't stop it!" Looking at the other party's tone, it should be the group that just stopped Duan Bailan, and the one who was turned away from him was the leader of the mountain bandits.

Obviously, he knew who the idiot the other party was talking about, and it seemed that this guy had caused them a lot of trouble before. The owner of the village was very affectionate, so he had to say: "This fool actually made trouble for me again, passed my order, and punished him not to eat meat for a month, otherwise he would break his pork legs!" ”

Liu Nianru listened to the other party's voice and was a little familiar, and then looked at the back of the person, as if she had seen it somewhere. Just thinking about it, the owner of the village suddenly turned around and showed a straight face.

Liu Nianru was slightly surprised when she saw that person's appearance, no wonder this guy's tone made her feel familiar, it turned out that he was Lu Gong! I thought that this kid went to live in seclusion on the rivers and lakes, how could he still occupy the mountain as the king here, and became the leader of the mountain bandits.

Liu Nianru was hesitating whether to go down to see him, but at this time, she saw Duan Bailan walking in unhurriedly. Looking outside, the guards had been defeated by him at some point. It turned out that after Duan Bailan was arrested, he saw that there were not many guards in the village, so he broke free from the rope and directly found the leader, wanting to deal with this matter as soon as possible.

Lu Gong heard movement behind him, turned around and saw Duan Bailan standing in front of him. The two looked at each other, both surprised. Duan Bailan didn't expect this Lu Gong to come and be the leader of the mountain bandits, and Lu Gong was curious about how Duan Bailan came here and how he learned about himself.

"Ding, His Royal Highness? Lord, is that you? Lu Gong didn't believe his eyes a little, he had been in the ravine for so long, hadn't Duan Bailan been in the capital?
