With a few truckloads of goods obtained yesterday, Shoko arranged for a few clever brothers to disguise themselves as traders early in the morning and go to the nearby villages to sell or exchange for food.

When Ma Chenghu yawned and came out of the kiln, Xiangzi had already settled down. Ma Chenghu smiled with satisfaction and waved them to go.

Xiangzi saw that Ma Chenghu looked good today, so he leaned over and whispered: "The people who got up the mountain yesterday still can't figure out the details." You can't let them huddle together and score points to each team to look at the points. ”

Ma Chenghu was slightly stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "It's still thoughtful, you can just watch it." ”

Xiangzi glanced around worriedly, and said thoughtfully: "It's not a way for the village to be so open, once there is a situation, there is not even a block." I see that the brothers have eaten enough in the past two days, and the days on the mountain are getting better day by day. I want the brothers to take the time to build a wall in front of the bend in the mountain and build a walled gate. Besides, didn't I get a dozen people yesterday, and I can't let them eat for nothing? ”

Ma Chenghu glanced at Xiangzi with a strange expression, and then said with a relieved face: "Oh, you are really a good hand at cooking the village." I've wronged you for being under my hand. ”

When Xiangzi heard this, he hurriedly showed a sincere look and said, "The big boss said what he said." Since I stayed in the village, I regarded this place as my home. If the big boss has any good ideas, just give orders. I plan to use two years to turn this place into a fortress where the officers and soldiers are timid. Then open up the back mountain, and leave a back road just in case. I see, you and I will be messing around here for the rest of our lives. ”

Ma Chenghu patted Xiangzi with emotion, and sighed: "Oh, with you, I can sit back and relax, and you can watch and handle the affairs of the village in the future." ”

As soon as the sun's brilliance overflowed the mountain, the brothers who came down the mountain returned happily. This time, not only did they get back vegetables, but they also exchanged a lot of grain and three fat sheep. Ma Chenghu shouted happily: "Come and kill a sheep and make a pot of mutton soup, donkey meat and dried buns all day long, which makes everyone scared." ”

Today is a ten-day appointment with Erdaoqiaozi, Shuzhen instructed her, and sent the third child into the city early. The news brought back is very exciting, and all ten truckloads of goods are wanted.

Seeing that Ma Chenghu was full of ambition, he looked worried. Xiangzi pretended to be casual, approached him and said, "Tomorrow, the big boss will pick ten brothers to go down the mountain together, so that I can get to know the boss who receives the goods in person." ”

Ma Chenghu pretended to excuse himself and said: "It's okay to have you and Saihua, what are so many people doing, and it's not to rob money." ”

Xiangzi smiled lightly and said: "Is it the first time to trade, the big boss should come forward, and bring a few brothers to put on a façade." ”

Ma Chenghu smiled with relief and said, "Cheng, it's so decided." ”

The sun had just turned white, and ten carriages full of foreign goods had already stopped in the col not far from the Banfanggou outpost. The barren Gobi, with all kinds of stones, still shines with the light of the past.

An eagle, swirling in the transparent sky, peered at everything on the ground. It's like swooping down at any time and taking away what belongs to it without hesitation.

After the unbearable silence, the crisp sound of horses' hooves could be heard in the distance. I saw a middle-aged man who looked like a businessman and a young entourage, walking here unhurriedly.

Shuzhen jumped on the boulder, whistled loudly at the man, waved his hand, and the man was in good spirits and urged the horse to come.

After each of them greeted each other, Xiangzi solemnly introduced Ma Chenghu to the boss. Seeing that the entourage took off the two boxes of gold bars, Ma Chenghu's face turned into a lump of flesh with laughter, and he couldn't say a word.

After counting the gold bars, I saw a team of cavalry suddenly rushing out from the Banfanggou sentry post and coming straight to this side.

Ma Chenghu looked extremely panicked, and hurriedly took out the guy from his waist. Xiangzi approached Ma Chenghu and whispered, "Don't get in the way, Boss Yang can handle it." ”

When Boss Yang saw the cavalry coming, he hurriedly greeted him with a smile on his face, and said with a smile: "Oh, the comrades of the People's Liberation Army are working hard, who are you?" ”

The cavalry dismounted and raised their guns to surround the people and goods. One of the leading Humpty Dumpty men, with a dark face, said, "Routine inspection to see if there are any prohibited items." ”

Boss Yang hurriedly took out the relevant procedures, and said with a smile: "The procedures are all complete, and I had dinner with you Captain Wang yesterday." ”

The expression on Humpty Dumpty's face suddenly came alive. Hurriedly smiled and said, "Do you know our Captain Wang?" ”

Boss Yang said with a smug look: "That's a long way to talk, when Captain Wang just entered Xinjiang, I took him to collect grain." ”

Humpty Dumpty looked respectful, smiled at Boss Yang, and motioned for the warrior to put down his gun. At this point, Ma Chenghu and his party slowly relaxed their vigilance.

But at this moment, Xiangzi suddenly grabbed Ma Chenghu with a big back, subdued Ma Chenghu, and shouted sharply in his mouth: "Take it!" ”

I saw Xiangzi's order, and the team members immediately pounced on the ten bandits like tigers pounced. The third child was stunned for a moment, and was just about to pull out his gun to resist, but he was subdued to the ground by Shuzhen's hand.

Ma Chenghu seemed to understand everything at this time, his face was full of disbelieving, and he shook his shoulders. He looked at Xiangzi and said hatefully, "Who are you, why are you acting in this play?" ”

Xiangzi smiled at him and said, "I'm the captain of the Bandit Suppression Brigade of the Public Security Department, what's wrong?" Not convinced? ”

Ma Chenghu looked up to the sky and sighed and said, "It's all my fault for being careless, and even affecting the brothers." ”

Xiangzi said mildly: "You didn't commit a major bloody crime, and it is not considered evil. Go back and renovate well, maybe there is a way out. As for those brothers, you don't have to worry about it, they don't deserve to die. ”

Hearing this, the expression on Ma Chenghu's face became a little more lively. The faces of the ten bandits gradually turned bloody. Seeing that the boss and the guys were busy packing up their things, Ma Chenghu sighed lightly and said with a depressed face: "So it seems that those dozen people are also undercover agents you got in?" ”

Shoko smiled at him and didn't say anything. On the one hand, the command team members were all handcuffed and escorted to the Banfanggou sentry post.

As soon as it was dark, Xiangzi took ten bandits and two carriages and went up the mountain freely.

Tonight's moon, as if deliberately hiding from something, refuses to show up. The clear sky, with only sporadic bold stars, blinking at the height of the sky. A quiet valley, hazy in a gray landscape.

As soon as Xiangzi and the others went uphill, two clever bandits greeted them with a smile and shouted, "Is it all the masters who are coming back?" ”

Xiangzi immediately accosted and said, "The big boss has drunk a lot, and asked the brothers to come and unload the car quickly." ”

The two voices disappeared into the night. It didn't take much effort to swarm a few people from all over the holes. In the dark, as soon as he hugged the front of the car, he was easily taken down by the bandits who ushered in.

A clever man saw that the situation was not good, turned around and ran. On the one hand, he shouted in his mouth: "The second boss is anti-grin, the second master is anti-grin......"

Seeing this, Shuzhen turned around and threw out a dart, hitting the bandit in the calf. As the bandits staggered, a warrior rushed forward, stretched out his hand, and fell to the ground.

The kiln seemed to sense that there was something unusual outside, and after a while, there was a lot of gunfire inside. Shoko told the team to pay attention to concealment, and infiltrated the cave alone. Of course, Juanzi needless to say, also quietly followed.

The structure of the lime kiln is very complex, not only are the caves connected, but also there are many dead holes and dark holes. If you don't get it right, you'll be squeezed into a dead end. Although Shoko was inside, he wandered around several times, intentionally or unintentionally, but he still couldn't completely figure out the situation inside. Therefore, in order to reduce casualties in the cave, it was decided to let some team members blend into the bandits' den in advance in order to act at the opportune time.

Xiangzi quietly touched the team members and said calmly, "What's the situation inside?" ”

The team member gasped a little and said, "There are still a dozen bandits in it, only four or five guns, and the rest are for us to unload the bolts." The point is that they are in the dark, we are in the light, and the cold gun can't stand it. ”

Shoko smiled lightly and said confidently, "Let's turn off the lights first, and push forward while turning off the lights." You start here, and I'll take the other fighters and press in from the east and west, and be sure to take care of concealment. As long as the bandits resist with guns, they will be resolutely eliminated. ”

Shoko gradually pushed forward according to the established style of play. When they reached the depths of the cave, they suddenly heard gunshots inside. Shoko hurriedly beckoned the warriors to hide, and crawled forward by himself.

In the vigilance, he heard a slight sound behind him, and Xiangzi subconsciously turned his head to see that it was Juanzi, who followed closely like an earthworm.

Xiangzi knew Juanzi's temper, so she had to smile with relief.

Touching the back of a stone, Xiangzi faintly saw a few anxious figures. Seeing that Juanzi hid her body, she shouted inside: "You are not guilty to death, lay down your arms, come out and surrender, I will protect you from life." ”

There was a deathly silence inside, and a hoarse voice said: "We don't believe anyone's words now, we just want to go back to our hometown." ”

Xiangzi hurriedly said affirmatively: "As long as you are willing to lay down your weapons, I promise to send you back to your hometown." In addition, we will issue you with the relevant procedures. ”

A rough voice inside said impatiently: "What are you going to!" What to do! You're a big liar, and we can't believe you if we believe dogs. Come, get your men out, and prepare us twelve horses. Otherwise, I'll ignite*, and no one will want to live! ”

There was another deathly silence, and it was still the rough voice that shouted: "Do you think I'm lying to you, scaring you with a *." There's a lot of that stuff here, and I don't believe it's going to open your eyes to a box. ”

As he spoke, he threw out a wooden box with a clatter. The wooden box fell to the ground and fell apart, and a series of * popped out of it. Shoko's back suddenly cooled inexplicably. He muttered silently for a while, and then raised his voice and said, "Don't mess around, just do as you say." ”

As he spoke, he turned his head and whispered a few words to Juanzi, and Juanzi quietly found out of the cave. Shoko talked to the bandits while directing the team to evacuate slowly.

When the bandits arrived at the entrance of the cave, Shoko found that the bandits were each holding a box* in their arms. Xiangzi smiled helplessly and said, "The horses are ready, please do it!" Go back and live a good life at home, and don't come out to make trouble. ”

The bandits hesitated but couldn't wait to get on their horses and run down the hill in a panic.

Looking at the back of the bandit, gradually disappearing into the vast night, a contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of Shoko's mouth.

Bandits, the excited and happy Pegasus had just rounded the stone mouth, and a torch suddenly appeared in front of him, and in his panic, his body shook from side to side magically. Immediately, they scrambled to fall off the horse. While the bandits were still stunned, they were pressed to the ground by the soldiers who rushed up.

It turned out that Xiangzi not only asked Juanzi to set up an ambush halfway, but also settled her not to tie the horse's belly belt.
