After Ning Yu returned to the Ning family's old mansion, he found that his father and others had gathered together, as if they were waiting for his arrival.

Today's Ning Yu has used his own behavior to prove his ability, and he has also won a voice of praise in the clan, and his prestige in the clan is rising day by day, and no one can shake his position as the young patriarch.

Therefore, on many things, Ning Zhongyuan and several brothers will also listen to his opinion, but like this time, it is still very rare for everyone to wait for him.

However, everyone's faces were a little gloomy, Ning Zhonghai looked like he was going to kill, his face was ruthlessly black, the last time Ning Yu saw it, it was someone in Ning Zhonghai's private salt team who ate inside and out, and was fed to the dog.

Ning Yu was curious: "What happened?" How many uncles have worked together to discuss? ”

Ning Zhongyuan said in a low voice: "Something went wrong with the private salt, we have a batch of salt that was robbed by the Peach Blossom Mountain here, and the guys who took the salt were all beheaded, leaving the lives of two people to be sent back." ”

Ning Yu took a slight breath of cold air, this matter is not big, it is not small, but in this Huguang area, there are few robbers who dare to be so arrogant and domineering, and even dare to move the head of the Ning family, and there are a few robbers in this matter.

Ning Zhonghai said in a low voice: "The few men under my command are all fucking hard bones, and they haven't said a word softly, I have to avenge them for this revenge." As he spoke, there was a cold murderous aura.

When did the Ning family suffer such a big loss?

Ning Zhongjing sighed slightly, looked a little anxious, and said: "I'm afraid this matter is not so simple, I know Peach Blossom Mountain, it is a gang of bandits, and they don't dare to offend our Ning family on weekdays, but now they have eaten the bear's heart and leopard gall, I am afraid that there is another backer." ”

The so-called bandits can be divided into bandits and bandits, bandits are outlaws, there is nothing that they dare not do, bandits are not ordinary, they have a family and a mouth, they often leave three points of leeway to do things, and they dare not do things too much, otherwise once they are weak, it will be the day of their demise.

After all, Ning Zhongyuan was born in a military and acted resolutely, and he didn't want to say anything, so he waved his hand and said: "Go back to my side to write to the new governor and clear Peach Blossom Mountain, if the local green camp is not effective, please transfer my Hanyang camp." ”

In today's Qing system, each defense area is the responsibility of the local towns, if something goes wrong, the governor also needs to issue a downward order in order to support across regions, otherwise it is a rebellion. This system makes it difficult for local towns to concentrate their forces when quelling unrest, so it often leads to small chaos and big chaos.

Ning Yu thought about it and said: "I'm afraid it's impossible, father, my Ning family must not openly clean up Peach Blossom Mountain this time, it will only lead people to suspicion, if someone has a heart to inquire about it, this batch of private salt will leak out, and I am afraid it will be difficult to clean up at that time." ”

No matter what you do, you need to act in today's environment, otherwise it will only cause others to covet it, even if the Ning family can resist one or two, it will be difficult to resist the reach of a higher level.

Ning Zhongyuan sighed softly: "If the problem cannot be solved in the first time, I am afraid that the road of private salt will be difficult in the future, and it will not be easy to explain it internally or externally. ”

This passage reveals the helplessness of the Ning family's situation at this time, due to the establishment of Huitong Qianzhuang, the Ning family has become the leader of the Huguang families, but after all, this has just been established, and many hidden forces have not been excavated, resulting in the Ning family not being able to completely digest this piece of fat.

At this time, the bond between the Ning family and other families is currently on the salt and the money village, if the salt is abolished, I am afraid that this loose alliance will fall apart. Therefore, the Ning family can't choose to tolerate and retreat from this matter, but it is difficult to use all their strength when it comes to hard work, and it is easy to suffer a big loss.

Ning Yu couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "There are no simple people in this world now, and without making a sound, someone has set up a big problem for the Ning family. Looking back at the expressions of the brothers of the Ning family, they were also very embarrassed, and they all thought of this.

Ning Yu thought for a moment, and then said: "The power of the official cannot be mobilized, we can mobilize our own strength, such as my young eagle battalion, the sword is just beginning, but now it is time to sharpen it." ”

Ning Zhongyi has been stationed in Yunmeng for a long time, so he is quite familiar with the situation of the Eagle Battalion, and he often goes to give some guidance, frowning slightly: "I have seen the soldiers of your Eagle Battalion, and all of them are good seedlings after a year of training, but I am worried that these children will have melons and eggs, and I am afraid that they will pee as soon as they go to the battlefield to fight." ”

Ning Yu said firmly: "It is precisely because of this that the Eagle Battalion should be put on the line, and I will personally command the battle this time." ”

Ning Zhongyi didn't say more, but Ning Zhongyuan frowned and said sternly: "The first battle must be won, otherwise I would rather take the risk of using the Hanyang Battalion, which is not only related to the safety of your Ning family, but also the lives of thousands of people." ”

Ning Zhongjing hesitated a little, and said: "I have dealt with Peach Blossom Mountain, and now there are about more than 1,000 bandits, and there are at least five or six hundred soldiers who can fight, and I think that the Eagle Battalion is currently only more than 400 people, and there are only 200 people who can really fight..... Wouldn't that be too risky? ”

Ning Yu knelt down and said categorically: "This battle will be won, if you don't win, my young eagle camp will die in Peach Blossom Mountain, and I, Ning Yu, will also die in Peach Blossom Mountain!" ”

These words shook the ground, and Ning Zhongyuan's appreciative expression inevitably brought a little worry. This has been a major event since ancient times, no matter how unpredictable the situation is, there has never been a reason to win, but since Ning Yu said so, Ning Zhongyuan is not good at showing deep affection for licking calves.

Ning Yu smiled and said: "In this battle, there are three major victories. Now the first and second companies are elite soldiers, and their morale is high, while Taohuashan is just a gang of bandits, worrying about their livelihood every day, even if there are five or six hundred people, but after all, they are untrained and their combat effectiveness is limited, so this is a big victory. ”

"Secondly, because the flintlock pistols equipped by my Eagle Battalion this time are extremely advanced, and after two days of new flintlock pistols are delivered, the first and second companies can be fully equipped, and Peach Blossom Mountain is full of some large blades, only a few bird guns, and the equipment is extremely poor, so this is the second big victory."

These words were hearty, so that several brothers of the Ning family listened to them with relish, and from time to time some people nodded in response, and they all listened to it.

Ning Yu said again: "In the end, it is because all the soldiers in my Eagle Battalion are all people who are coarse and literate, and they also know what ambition is in their hearts, and their desire for victory is extremely strong, which is incomparable to those bandits who can only eat and wait for death, this is the third big victory." ”

"In short, the day of the victory of my Eagle Battalion will be the time when the bandits in Peach Blossom Mountain will be destroyed!"
