Li Guolou wants to go out of the city to suppress bandits, these two days on the sand table deduction, two days to plan the attack on the Balizhuang White Lotus Sect lair, the people and horses have been assembled, the militia group has 300 people, the criminal department has dispatched 100 people, the large army is about to set off, and the secrecy work is meticulous and complete.

Balizhuang is not a good piece of bones, backed by the Yunmeng Mountain Range, it is easy for the rebels to escape into the northern part of the grassland, although the trouble is that Balizhuang is small, but there is a high wall made of rammed earth, it is very difficult to beat hundreds of White Lotus Sect disciples in one net.

The large army set out, brought two cannons, hid in the carriage, and disguised more than 400 soldiers went out of the city in batches from the north gate of the city.

Li Guolou is the first batch of people to go out of the city, the purpose of the action is only known to him, pretending to be a caravan of more than 100 people, there are 30 pikes of the criminal department, and the rest of the horses are composed of members of the militia group, his team is used to block the back road of the bandits, the road of Yunmeng Mountain in the north of Balizhuang is narrow, and he wants to reach there first without showing traces.

Pretending to go to the north to do business horse team, by the "Monkey King" Sun Yue came forward to pretend to be the shopkeeper, they knew that this time out of the city was to suppress bandits, as for the purpose until the first day of rest is still unknown, people to the north everyone is wearing sheepskin coats, the carriage is full of goods, mainly cloth, tea bricks, spears and ammunition are hidden in the carriage, more than 100 people continue to be in order, there are people standing guard at night.

Li Guolou has to get rid of the scum, wearing a sheepskin jacket, wearing a dogskin hat, doing the first half of the night on duty, for this team of 100 people, Li Guolou has great confidence, a team was full of vitality in the early days, these poor people were born in the Han people and members of the militia group, they want to get ahead, only by loyalty and courage to fight for the position, for the motherland to dedicate themselves.

A team is rotten and not falling is slowly led to damage by the Manchurians, so Li Guolou does not like to deal with the children of the Manchu nobles, this kind of people have too many bad habits, refuse to listen to the command, military discipline is difficult to punish the Manchus, boasting about the achievements of the ancestors to hear his ears calluses also come out.

In the evening, there were bursts of laughter in the Cedar Forest Inn, and it seemed that there were any White Lotus Sect spies in the calm Inn, which Li Guolou was not sure about, he did not dare to step into the Cedar Forest Inn, for fear that there would be White Lotus Sect spies who knew him.

Li Guolou and ten coachmen unloaded the wheels, inspected the axles of twenty carriages, and repaired the damaged places, this is what every caravan has to do, the axles of the carriages will be worn out for a day, and the convoy needs to be repaired every day, so the coachmen in the convoy will repair the carriages, unless it is a short trip, the coachmen can rest easy, at this time the axles of the carriages are made of iron, the tires are rubber, but there is no inner tube, the carriages are bumpy on the bluestone roads and dirt roads, the tires are worn very seriously, and the coachmen have to maintain the carriages every day.

Li Guolou knows how to repair cars, that is, he sees ten coachmen busy working, handing over repair tools, and has a career specialty, he is not interested in repairing cars.

"One night husband and wife, two people in the same bed, three peeps, legs crossed······"

The inn was brightly lit, and the sound of the guests drawing their fists for dinner spread outside the store, and Li Guolou heard this kind of fist drawing command for the first time, and couldn't help but "poof." A laugh broke out.

"Don't laugh." Pretending to be a guide, Gao Yao Wuyun scolded loudly, and the leather whip in her hand shook the whip in the air, she was used to listening to the slang of the market, and all kinds of drinking orders have been memorized since she was a child, and she can also shout several times when drinking.

Li Guolou lowered his head and smiled: "Shoot too!" ”

Gao Yao Wuyun said angrily: "Xiao Li, don't get carried away, my whip is not emotional!" ”

Li Guolou knew that he had missed his mouth, so he quickly lowered his head and didn't dare to say a word.

At the door of the backyard, a chivalrous woman dressed as a person, her ears are very sensitive, hearing Li Guolou's strange English, she stepped towards a row of carriages, and her heart was very interested in these more than 100 people, the chivalrous woman is the hero of "robbing the rich and helping the poor", how can she not be interested in seeing the property on the twenty carriages.

Fei Lingxue slapped the oilcloth wrapped tightly in the carriage, approaching Li Guolou's side step by step, a pair of Danfeng eyes swept towards Li Guolou, she only glanced at it, and found a loophole, although Li Guolou was dressed plainly, a tattered sheepskin jacket was passable, but a white face, which looked like a food and sleeping seller, and then looked at Gao Yao Wuyun next to her, her heart was cold, she recognized this Mongolian guide is a chicken is a famous black and white all-you-eat female catcher Gao Yao Wuyun.

Gao Yao is a public figure, patrolling outside in a trapping uniform all day long, she doesn't know people, and people remember her at a glance.

Fei Lingxue was not afraid, leaned up to look at Li Guolou, and said, "Little brother, where are you!" ”

Fei Lingxue was wearing a leather coat, deerskin boots, and a three-foot sword behind her, with a height of one meter six or five, with a goose egg face, combing her high hair in a bun, wrapped in a cyan silk cloth, with red phoenix eyes and willow eyebrows, slightly upturned lips, revealing a sneer at Fengchen.

Li Guolou saw at a glance that this woman was a spy in the rivers and lakes, and she was a kung fu master, so she lowered her eyebrows and said: "Little brother businessman, eldest sister who is a handmaiden!" ”

"We're not a bunch of people anyway." Fei Lingxue looked the carriage up and down, wanting to see through what was in the carriage, whether it was worth her command.

Gao Yao Wuyun has long been accustomed to dealing with people in the rivers and lakes, inserted into Fei Lingxue's side, his eyes widened, and said: "Woman, do you understand the rules, no one has the idea of beating our Qiao family on this road, don't you see the flag!" ”

The carriage is inserted with the banner of Qiao, this is the banner of Qiao Zhiyong, a big merchant in Shanxi, the north does business with the Mongolian prince, Qiao Zhiyong belongs to a large private business, Qiao Zhiyong has the courage to take risks when the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is rampant, and crosses the Yangtze River to "smuggle" the goods from the south to the north, and does not dare to do things and becomes famous in a war, and now it has a direct transaction with the Russians, the commercial house "Fusheng Gong" Baotou is famous, and there are two ticket numbers "Da Detong" and "Da Deheng", and most of the businessmen in the north do business with the commercial house "Fusheng Gong", Many of the goods were transported to Baotou "Fusheng Gong".

Li Guolou led twenty carriages and his entourage, which borrowed the name of Qiao Zhiyong, so that no one doubted that he could go all the way.

"Oh, really, I know all the shopkeepers of Master Qiao, and Wang Dexiu is the first." Fei Lingxue didn't cut the rhetorical question, and immediately made Gao Yao Wuyun speechless.

Li Guolou pulled away Gao Yao's dark clouds, and this subordinate also scared people, spoke a big and said a few more words, and showed the fearlessness of the ignorant.

"Oh, woman, you say people, I haven't heard of it, you can give another name." Li Guolou raised his voice and said, how could he not be prepared when dealing with the enemy, he even recited the names of Qiao Zhiyong's sons and the roster of Jingshi personnel of "Fusheng Gong".

"Snort." Fei Lingxue sneered and said, "You guys, I have already seen it, do you want me to go inside and scream and catch my head." Seeing the people next to him coming up violently, Fei Linxue was unambiguous, and said fearlessly: "Don't talk nonsense, if you want to stay and buy money from now on, spend a hundred taels of silver!" ”

Fei Lingxue stretched out her palm and blackmailed her face to face, this is her luck, she can make a fortune without fighting, the dog official is disguised and disguised, there must be ulterior motives, as a Jianghu person, how can she miss a good opportunity.

Gao Yao Wuyun lowered his voice and said angrily: "Thief, believe it or not, I hacked you!" ”

Gao Yao's face has changed, her red face is purple, her ambition died before she was rewarded, she didn't expect people to know her, she only blamed her for her unique shape, which is unforgettable, and disguise has no effect on her, and her big hands and bones rang with a straight sound, as if she wanted to crush all living beings.

Fei Lingxue was not afraid, stood still and straightened, and dared to speak, she made a secret weapon, so close, killing without forgiveness, Fei Lingxue's sleeves fluttered, and the machine spring in the sleeve tube was about to explode.

Li Guolou looked at Fei Linxue, but saw that Fei Lingxue's legs were a little outward, and understood that this was a female horse thief, specializing in outposts, and if there was a fat sheep, he would notify the brothers to hide in the mountains or grasslands to get a vote, this kind of person has poisonous eyes, and the merchant goods carry silver and valuables, she knew as soon as she took the pulse, she sniffed her nose just now, and she should smell the smell of gunpowder in the carriage.

Horse thieves are inscrutable people, usually they may be herdsmen, and they will kindly invite you to drink a bowl of mare's milk wine, but when a large group of horse wranglers get together, they will make a vote.

"Gao Yao, guide you back aside, I'll say a few words to the heroine." Li Guolou ordered.

The people next to him were well-organized, and they all retreated, and Li Guolou glanced at him and said, "Prairie Woman, what do you call it." "I look down on this kind of woman in my heart, and I think that the knife and gun on horseback determine the victory, and I have never seen the power of muskets, and they are all frogs at the bottom of the well.

"The people in the rivers and lakes call me Flying Fox, Xiao Li, you can also call me that." Fei Lingxue swept towards Li Guolou and opened her sheepskin coat, and the two short-barreled muskets with waist loops made her heart pound, and also let her know that these people were strong, and it was better to negotiate if they didn't move easily.

"Oh······ Remember, Flying Fox Woman, money is negotiable, but how do I know you won't betray us. Li Guolou really wanted to shoot this female horse thief with one shot, so that he would not be able to sleep all night.

"Oh, see the birdcage upstairs, who will know if I don't open it, the four pigeons in it will follow you, so it's all right." Fei Lingxue saw that Li Guolou opened his shirt to reveal the meaning of the musket, and took a step back, not forcing people too much.

Li Guolou looked up at the pigeon shed outside the eaves on the second floor of the inn, and the pigeons were "cooing." The scream had long made him suspicious.

"Okay, let Gao Yao see if there are a few pigeons." Li Guolou said without hesitation.

"Please, Miss Gao Yao." Fei Lingxue politely stretched out her hand, relying on a pair of sharp eyes to make a lot of money, the little white face had no background, thinking that she was only one person, and she used a few pigeons to deceive the dog official.

"Oh, Flying Fox, don't you have two good friends, let them not move their nests, don't regret it." Li Guolou raised his voice and admonished Fei Linxue's back.

Fei Lingxue's face changed, she turned her head to look at Li Guolou, she didn't expect that the two accomplices who were drinking didn't show their faces, so they showed the flaws to this dog officer, she underestimated "Xiao Li".

"Xiao Li, it's time to go in for dinner, I'll treat you to pay the bill." Fei Lingxue raised her voice.

"Okay." Li Guolou walked out of the inn "Monkey King" Sun Yue nodded, and stepped into the Cedar Forest Inn, he had to take a closer look, what other people were here, if there was a White Lotus Sect secret agent, Li Guolou believed that he would be able to find out.

Li Guolou's team of men and horses is an outpost, in order to get the next three teams of people to pass through here safely, he wants to find out the White Lotus Sect spies as much as possible, Li Guolou glanced at the people in the inn, in the steaming lobby, merchants, Jianghu guests, bosses, and guys, looking at the strange faces, Li Guolou suddenly understood why the officers and soldiers would kill the bandits and never leave them alive.

Li Guolou figured it out, if he entered the army, he would also be a murderous commander.
