"A family of robbers and smugglers? Owner, how did you come up with such an idea? Early in the morning, Yang Xuan and Dong Zhuang were called over by Qin Forget to discuss matters, and after listening to Qin Wang's thoughts, Yang Xuan asked strangely.

And Dong Zhuang didn't speak, and kept silent.

"What's so strange, didn't we do it once, and the Da Chu Jin family didn't do much. Yang Xuan, please note that this time we are not robbing, we are fighting smuggling. Qin Forget corrected, "Over the years, how many contraband items such as salt and iron have these families smuggled to the Khitans? What we do is in accordance with the law of Dayan, and no one can say anything. ”

"But the owner, we have no official position now, and we don't have any reputation. It is already a taboo to form an army without authorization, and to crack down on smuggling, to offend those powerful people in a grand manner, and to die faster. Yang Xuan smiled bitterly.

"So what? If I'm not mistaken, Golden Mountain is going to negotiate with us recently. Let's take a few orders first, and by the time they react and go to Youzhou to sue us, we are already a regular army of the imperial court, at least the army under Huang Jinshan. Qin Forget said nonchalantly.

"Is the owner talking about a time difference? So why can't we just wait? It's not too late to do this when we get ready. Yang Xuan still felt that it should be safe.

"I want to too, but without a large amount of supplies injected recently, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us in Akagi to get through this. Horses have no night grass and no fertilizer, and people have no windfall and no wealth, so we have to do this this time. ”

"The general is right, we have to think of something else. I think it's doable. It's a big deal, let's do a good job of confidentiality first. Dong Zhuang suddenly said, "And the biggest advantage is that once those families who were robbed by us know that we are the army under the Golden Mountain, then the first thing they need to find trouble is the Golden Mountain, and this old boy doesn't have so much effort to seek revenge on us." ”

"That's the reason, in fact, now we have no problem blatantly moving those smuggling caravans, Dayan Tea and Horse Market is about to open, and we can be regarded as maintaining order in advance by doing something to this kind of person. However, it is necessary to keep it secret, neither can we let the robbed person know quickly that we did it, nor can we let Huang Jinshan know that after he gave us the preparation, it will bring him so much trouble. Qin Forget nodded to Dong Zhuang, expressing his appreciation for Dong Zhuang's analysis.

"The secrecy work is very simple, during this time, Tianxiang has sorted out our Akagi cleanly, and there are no spies from outside forces. The people and goods that were snatched are easy to deal with, just pull them directly to the monkey nest. So the owner, who are we going to move? I think it's better not to rob everyone and fight everyone. Listening to Qin Wang's analysis, Yang Xuan also accepted Qin Wang's proposal.

"I received news that three days later, the Jin family and the Ulzhou Fang family each had a caravan to go to the grassland, and they were traveling together. There are four hundred guards, six hundred men, five hundred carts, half grain and half pig iron, and I will eat it. ”

"Five hundred carts, okay, if we take it, we won't be short of food for the time being." Yang Xuan said excitedly.

"It's the Jin family again, okay, let's settle accounts with them this time, and the Ulzhou Fang family, we have already tied up Fang Gang, I don't care about offending them again." Dong Zhuang also said approvingly.

"The purpose of my plan to do something to these people is to tell them that we are here, and if they can't get along with us any longer, not only will they not want to open the tea and horse market for a while, but even the smuggling road will be cut off. Not only do I want to do it to the Jin family and the Fang family,

I'm going to do something to all the smuggling caravans. From today onwards, not a single grain or pound of iron will flow to the Khitan. Qin Wangfu said categorically.

"Owner, is it necessary to offend the wealthy families in the world now?" Looking at Qin Wang's determined appearance, Yang Xuan and Dong Zhuang glanced at each other and asked.

"Not to offend all the wealthy families, in fact, I have carefully calculated that the commercial taxes of various countries have always been low, and the little tax money they saved from smuggling is not enough for the loss of the long road. The opening of the Tea Horse Market is imminent, and merchants all over the world are stockpiling up goods to test the waters at the first Tea Horse Market. At present, there are only a few companies that can still persist in large-scale smuggling. Qin Forget said affirmatively.

"But even if that's the case, will the Khitans also be embarrassed by us? These people are unreasonable. Dong Zhuang also said worriedly.

"It's okay, the Khitans, then we can satisfy them. The things we have stolen are useless for the time being, and we will trade with the Khitans, and the cattle, sheep, and horses we will exchange for are our own. Obviously, Qin Forget had also thought about this problem.

Seeing that Qin Forget said it so surely, Yang Xuan and Dong Zhuang no longer objected.

Three days later, it was a farrier ditch again.

The late spring sun in the Northland didn't bring much warmth, but a huge caravan was sweating along the way.

The caravan was unusually large, more than five or six miles long, and each of the five hundred carts was pulled by a pack horse, and four or five people pushed it behind from time to time, but the carriage still did not go fast enough, which showed how heavy the goods on the carriage were.

The size of the caravan of 500 carts and 1,000 people seems to be very large, but it is the norm for these families to smuggle to the Khitans. The influence of the Dayan Imperial Court on the northern land was not very strong, and smuggling has always been semi-public. The steppe is huge, and each transaction takes half a year, so these caravans will bring enough goods to complete as much trade as possible at a time.

This time, the leader of the Jin family's caravan was a middle-aged man about the same age as Jin Sen, but he looked much older than Jin Sen, and he stared vigilantly at the mountains on both sides of the hoof ditch.

"Boss Gold, don't be so nervous, right? That Akagi was almost slaughtered, there should be no strength to rob us again, besides, they are too late to hold a funeral now, how can they be in that mood. The leader of the Fang family said nonchalantly.

"It's better to be careful, the loss of Akagi this time is quite large, but because of this, they are even more short of supplies. As for strength, you can rest assured that they are still strong enough. The Jin family leader looked at the Fang family leader with dissatisfaction and said.

The leader of the Fang family obviously also saw the attitude of the leader of the Jin family, but although everyone was the leader of the caravan, his own family was not as good as others, and the leader of the Fang family could only be deflated.

"You said that Qin Forget is really evil, both of us have suffered losses in his hands, and this time the Golden Mountain, the envoy of the Sanzhou Festival, has not been able to do anything with him. I heard that this kid cut down a whole 1,600 people in the Yunzhou army, damn it, he is really ruthless, and he deserves to be a refugee butcher. The leader of the Fang family smiled awkwardly, changed the topic, and couldn't help but sigh.

The corners of the Jin family leader's eyes twitched, and his heart became even more uneasy. He felt more and more that now was not the time to go to the grassland at all, although a tiger was injured, but it was also the time when it was the hungriest, and it was not to seek death to provoke it at this time? His eyes were even more full when he looked at the two peaks

Full of worries.

But things seemed to be going far more smoothly than the head of the Jin family had imagined, and he had already seen Taniguchi with his people and still not received any attacks.

Seeing Taniguchi getting closer and closer, the heart of the leader of the Jin family slowly fell into his stomach.

"How about Brother Jin, I just said there won't be any problems, right? The one surnamed Qin was busy burying the dead. The leader of the Fang family laughed happily, but the words in his mouth were extremely unpleasant.

The leader of the Jin family also smiled slightly, "Then thank you Brother Fang for his words." He was in a good mood, and he no longer spoke coldly to the leader of the other family.

Before his words fell, nearly a thousand ironclad soldiers suddenly appeared in front of him, and they quickly lined up in front of him.

He watched in amazement as the thousand ironclad soldiers ran out of the woods on both sides, blocking his way, and his heart was cold.

"This road is impassable, third brother, surrender, right?" Just when the leader of the Jin family was frightened, a big man with a heavy sword rode out of the ironclad soldier formation.

"Jinsen, it turned out to be you traitor." Seeing the person coming, the leader of the Jin family was furious, but he also had a lot of cool in his heart, he knew Jin Sen's ability too well, and the two had a lot of hatred when they were young, and I am afraid that this time it will not be good.

"Don't talk nonsense, my general has a life, surrender, keep you from dying." Huang Wushuang, who was next to Jin Sen, stepped forward impatiently, and the double hammer in his hand struck hard, and the huge sound shook the caravan's horses and neighed.

The leader of the Jin family is like ashes, there are a thousand ironclad soldiers in front, presumably there will be no less in the back, and the caravan only has four hundred guards, how to fight? He had no choice but to dismount and surrender.

After this battle, the Akagi soldiers captured 3,000 stone of grain, 3,000 stone of pig iron, and a number of other materials without blood, which can be regarded as a solution to the urgent need. What made Jin Sen even more excited was that the capture of 60 war horses and 500 pack horses again would greatly expand the cavalry battalion under his command.

"Third brother, I have to trouble you, we only keep half of these things, and you will send the rest to the Khitan. Rest assured, our 2,000 men will protect you all the way. After counting the supplies, Jin Sen said to the leader surnamed Jin.

"Humph! I thought you had a lot of backbone, aren't you still afraid of the Khitans? After thinking about Jin Sen's words for a while, the leader of the Jin family understood what Jin Sen meant, and sneered and mocked at the moment.

"I'm afraid that the Khitans don't need you to say it here. Let's just say whether to go or not, right? Jin Sen was also not annoyed, and asked.

"Do I have a choice?" The leader surnamed Jin asked rhetorically, "Jin Sen, no matter what, we are all members of the Jin family, can you let me go back after I finish this matter for you?" You also know that your third brother's family is all in Dachu, and they can't do without me. ”

"I can't let you go for the time being, you can only wait for the time. But don't worry, as long as you do your duty to handle this matter, I will protect your life. Jinsen promised.

"Okay, I'll believe you this time." The leader of the Jin family gritted his teeth and said.

"General Kim, can you let me go. To tell you the truth, we also want to raise the materials that Mr. Qin wants this time to trade with the Khitans, can you see if you can raise your hand? The leader surnamed Fang next to him begged for mercy.

"I don't care about this, I only do what my owner tells me." Kaneson was unmoved, "And I also told you that you owe us a point in Akagi." ”

The leader surnamed Fang's whole face became bitter, and he didn't say anything more.
