On September 28, on a hill in Wagang Township, Tangyin County, Boss Wei's company was ambushed in the bushes. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

This company is going to ambush a group of thieves passing by.

In fact, in the disaster area of Henan, the damage to production caused by thieves is also great. Once the poor people become thieves, they rob not only the gentry, but also the other people. When the thieves had finished robbing the people, they took the people who had lost all their grain and turned them into new thieves, until they were large enough to storm the city.

Zhang Xianzhong did this, Li Zicheng did this, and Tang Yin's thieves did it. For thieves struggling to survive, the idea of killing only the gentry and not the commoners is unrealistic.

So once there is a large group of thieves in one place, it will be extremely difficult for the production of this place to resume. Even after surviving a disaster year, farmers who want to start farming again will be attacked by thieves. If the government sends a large army to suppress it, perhaps such thieves will be slowly defeated and destroyed. But if the imperial court does not have food and sends soldiers and horses to suppress the thieves, the thieves will snowball.

If we want to restore normal production order in a place, these groups of thieves who live by looting must be eliminated.

This is the second time that Boss Wei's company has transported grain to Tangyin, and it has already developed a sense of responsibility for this small county. What they are doing now is to prepare to eliminate the biggest group of thieves in Tangyin County.

These thieves not only plundered the gentry and the common people, but also coveted the grain of the tiger army's grain transport team. The last time he was surrounded by thieves at night, Boss Wei remembered it deeply, if the thieves who surrounded the company were braver and used thousands of people to attack the Tiger Ben Army company in the dark night, it would be very difficult to say whether the Tiger Ben Army could hold its position in hand-to-hand combat.

Not only for the safety of transporting food, but even for the people of Tangyin County, the Tiger Ben Army also wants to defeat this group of thieves. The soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army are all compassionate, and it is impossible to be indifferent to the precarious life of the people in the disaster area. At this time, it was the time of sowing winter wheat, and only by defeating the thieves in Tangyin could the normal cultivation of the people be carried out.

Not only was Boss Wei's company fighting thieves in Tangyin, but in fact, the grain transportation teams sent by Li Zhi to Beizhili and northern Henan were all fighting thieves. With the firepower of the Tiger Army, a company of 200 people is enough to sweep away ordinary thieves.

The arrested thief scout did not lie, and in front of Boss Wei, more than 2,000 thieves were holding spears and knives and were going to Fudao Town through the official road.

If these thieves were allowed to attack the town of Fudao, the already decaying town would inevitably undergo another looting.

The government's archers had no choice but to hold on to the county seat. But in the eyes of the Tiger Army, it is not difficult to defeat these thieves.

At a distance of two hundred meters, the company commander Old Man Han shouted violently, "Fight!" ”

Crackling gunfire erupted violently, like firecrackers during the Chinese New Year, and blood flew in an instant in the ranks of the thieves. Blood mist sprayed from the wounds of the wounded, splashing the people next to them. At least a hundred people fell screaming, convulsing and moaning on the ground, and rolling incessantly.

The other thieves didn't know what was going on, and looked around at the injured thieves with dumbfounded eyes.

Boss Wei's company was hiding in the bushes, and it was not so easy for the thieves to discover this unit at the first time. The thieves were still in a panic, and the Tiger Army began to shoot a second time.

More than a hundred people fell screaming.

The dozens of horseback leaders of the thieves were not spared, and all of them were knocked down by their scoped rifles and fell in pools of blood.

Only then did the thieves know that they had suffered a catastrophe and scattered with a bang. However, most of the soldiers in Old Man Han's company were equipped with new rifles, which could shoot at unarmored targets within 400 meters. Even as the thieves fled far away, these new rifles were still mowing the grass to hunt down the thieves.

By the time the thieves had all dispersed, nearly a thousand corpses had been left on the ground. After this battle, this branch of thieves was defeated, and it was impossible to harm the people of Tangyin County again.

The company commander, Old Man Han, saw that the battle was easily won, smiled, and took out the fire fold and lit the dry smoke.

Boss Wei waited for a long time without waiting for the company commander's order, and rushed down with his infantry squad with a wave of his hand: "Go!" Go search for loot! ”

Boss Wei's company finished beating the thieves, found thousands of taels of silver on the corpses of the thieves, and returned to the county seat of Tangyin County with great ambition.

The company commander, Old Man Han, went directly to the camp to rest, and asked Boss Wei to take people to the place where the grain was sold to have a look.

This time, the company transported 1,600 stone of grain at one time and sold it at a reasonable price near the county seat of Tangyin County. Not only the people in the county town came to buy rice and noodles, but even the farmers in the countryside came to buy them. Although the peasants are poor, this cheap rice and noodles are a life-saving thing when the green and yellow are not in stock, and the peasants have to buy some even if they smash the pot and sell iron pawn clothes.

In charge of selling rice and noodles was Shandong Minzhuang, who drove grain trucks, and these people set up 10 grain sales points and weighed the people of Henan with huge iron scales, and they were very busy.

Boss Wei walked to the people in line and looked at it, but he couldn't help frowning.

Hundreds of well-dressed men, who were clearly gentry, constantly cut through the ranks. They were at the forefront of the procession, quickly bought cheap grain, and then took the rice and flour to the gentry servant a little further away from the grain sales point, and poured the rice and flour into the gentry servant's flat shoulder. Then they took the copper coins to the queue to buy food.

Those people are afraid of both thieves and gentry on weekdays, where do they dare to confront these gentry? Seeing the gentry's family members coming to cut in line, those people endured it as soon as they bowed their heads, and no one dared to speak out to resist.

Because hundreds of gentry kept cutting in line, at least one-third of the cheap rice and noodles were bought by the gentry.

This meant that the gentry had to buy 400 stone of grain at a time. In Zhangde Mansion, Henan, where the price of rice is high, once the grain of 400 stones enters the pockets of the gentry, it may be sold at a sky-high price of six taels and one stone.

Boss Wei is a very responsible person, he feels that since he transported the grain to Henan with the old man Han and defeated the thieves, he must do this matter in place, and sell the cheap grain to the people who are most in need of food.

How could Boss Wei allow the gentry to take all the grain into their pockets?

Boss Wei pulled out the handcuff and loaded it with bullets.

He strode to the front of the line, spotted one of the most arrogant gentry who cut into the line, and grabbed him by the collar.

Boss Wei dragged the family out of the queue and shot the family in the thigh with a handcuff.

"Smack!"

The screams of the housekeepers like pigs were violently heard.

In the stunned eyes of the people of Tangyin County, Boss Wei broke the thigh and leg bone of the family who cut into the queue with one shot.
