Chapter 47: Asking for Property
This time to encircle and suppress Hutou Mountain, the biggest gain is not the tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of assets, but this overlord halberd and this set of exercises.
Of course, harvesting the talent of Bai Feng is also a very big gain.
"Zimo, I think Zhou Nan still has some ability, can you accept it and use it for me?"
Obviously, Zhou Nan is not a famous general, and now he may not even be able to fight himself, but how difficult it is to find a famous general, and the grassroots officers of an army are the cornerstone and the foundation of an army.
"Rest assured, the lord is very convinced by the wind from top to bottom of this Hutou Mountain, and the wind is sure to subdue them."
"Okay, Zimo has made another contribution."
In this way, under Bai Feng's persuasion, Zhou Nan surrendered to Ye Chen, and the rest of the troops also surrendered.
Although these people will not recruit all of them into the army, if they expand in the future, there will definitely be some qualified soldiers, Ye Chen will bring them back, allocate land and farm tools, give them food and drink, and I believe that they will be able to return to their hearts soon.
"Young master, there is too much food for me to transport back at once." Seeing Ye Chen and Bai Feng coming out of the room, the tiger head hurriedly stepped forward to report.
"There is no need to move the grain, and Li Ren is ordered to lead a thousand soldiers and be stationed here."
"Young master, why do we want this broken cottage?" Tiger Head instructed the soldiers around him to give orders, and he asked very puzzled.
Not only was the tiger head puzzled, but Tai Shici, Bai Feng and others on the side were also puzzled.
Ye Chen looked around and said: "It is impossible for us to suppress the bandits without any losses, if this is the case, I am afraid that there will be all kinds of rumors, and when we go back, let the soldiers take off all their armor and hide them in the cart, and arrange for hundreds of people to pretend to be wounded." ”
Ye Chen did this in order not to attract the attention of others, if Ye Chen let the three thousand guard battalion go back fully armed and majestic, maybe another day the imperial court would send a large team of men and horses to encircle and suppress him.
Besides, he has to pretend to be pitiful and win sympathy, so that he can take out the huge wealth of the Chen family and the Han family.
Otherwise, when Ye Chen takes out this huge amount of wealth, it will definitely cause many people to blush, and the rumors are certain, I am afraid that the eye redness is too serious, and I don't know what to provoke.
In the end, Ye Chen left a thousand people, and a few hundred others pretended to be wounded, and let the bandits of Hutou Mountain carry back more than a hundred bandits who had died in battle.
In a few carts, the treasures underneath were covered with ordinary things, so that the whole group of people could go back.
I believe that Liu Qi and others are ready to spread the news all over the city.
Sure enough, when Ye Chen and his party approached the Ye family, the roadside was already full of people.
"Look, what a bandit."
"yes, there are a lot of bandits."
"This Ye family is too miserable this time, you see, many people are injured."
"Not only that, I heard that after more than a month of suppressing bandits, the Ye family has killed and injured almost 2,000 people."
"What! Two thousand? ”
"It's also the Ye family that has this loss of strength."
......
It's never too much to watch the excitement, the Ye family's team is clearly seen by them, these people will definitely make a big splash when they go back, and then it won't take half a day for everyone to know.
As soon as he returned to Ye's house, Ye Chen asked Wu Xian and the others to go to Ye Chen's study.
"Wu Xian, this is Bai Feng Bai Zimo, you take him to understand the Ye family in the past few days."
Bai Feng was a newcomer, so he quickly stood up and saluted a few people present.
After everyone finished introducing them, Ye Chen began to assign tasks after the ceremony.
"Wu Xian, you will come forward later, announcing that the Ye family has exterminated Qingfeng Village, and because of the heavy losses of my Ye family in this crackdown on bandits, I decided not to suppress the bandits."
"What? Don't suppress bandits, young master, why don't you suppress bandits. "The tiger head didn't suppress the bandits when he heard it, he was in a hurry at the moment, he didn't care about anything else, he cared about not having a fight.
The others laughed when they saw the anxious appearance of the tiger head, although most people didn't know why Ye Chen did this, but they knew that Ye Chen would definitely not stop suppressing bandits, because the harvest of more than a month of banditry was too great.
The population captured three or four thousand people, and these people were all converted into peasants, and if the wealth was not counted by the Chen family and the Han family, there were hundreds of millions.
"Well, yes, don't suppress the bandits, the soldiers have been tired for more than a month, I have to let them rest and train me well."
"Oh" The tiger head hung his head and replied forcefully.
"Wu Xian, you still have to go and take over all the Chen family's property to me, anyway, this time the name is justified, no one will jump out to oppose the Chen family has been wiped out, as for the Han family, it's a bit troublesome, let's let it go first."
"Big brother, tiger head, the next step is to conduct an intensive training for the guard battalion, and strive to have a big leap in combat effectiveness when the next time you suppress bandits."
"Young Master, didn't you say that you won't suppress bandits?" The tiger head was stunned again by Ye Chen's words.
This time, Ye Chen didn't answer him, but turned his head to ask Li Qing on the other side.
"Li Qing, now that the basic construction of the workshop has been completed, then you will go all out to build Yejiabao and strive to complete it as soon as possible."
"Yes, young master."
Ye Chen learned about the other things of the Ye family and then broke up.
After everyone dispersed, they all went to do their own things, while Ye Chen took out the Overlord Halberd Method in the study and began to practice the internal strength and heart method inside.
In the evening, Dongxue came in and told Ye Chen that the people of the Han family came to ask for the property that was robbed by Qingfeng Village, but they were blocked by Steward Wu.
Ye Chen had long known that the Han family would not be honest, and they would not give up this huge fortune so easily.
After coming back for a few days, Ye Chen didn't go out, he had been practicing the halberd method, and suddenly a family member came to report that the Han family led thousands of guests to surround the gate of the Ye family.
Ye Chen ordered the two thousand guard battalions to stop training and follow him back to Ye Mansion.
On the way, Ye Chen thought, this Yejia Fort still has to be built as soon as possible, otherwise let people kill people at the door of the house like this, if the enemy in the future may make him unable to react in time.
Ye Chen and his entourage returned to Ye Mansion with a murderous spirit, although they were not wearing armor at this time, they were all holding weapons, and most of them had seen blood, which could be described as full of momentum.
When I arrived at the gate of Ye Mansion, I saw the Han family and others waiting for a shout.
Ye Chen didn't say a word, and ordered them to be surrounded.
"Who is so bold and dares to besiege my Ye Mansion, but the bandits I have suppressed for more than a month have come to retaliate."
"The Ye family, don't be presumptuous, I'm here to ask for my Han family's property." A big man saw that Ye Chen and the others were robbed of their momentum, so he shouted at Ye Chen, hoping to improve his momentum.
Ye Chen didn't know him, he didn't know who he was from the Han family, and he wasn't interested in knowing.
"The Han family's belongings? Has my Ye family robbed your Han family? ”
"Hmph, that Qingfeng Village washed my Han family with blood, and what was looted is now in your Ye family."
"Oh, I did get a lot of treasure by destroying Qingfeng Village, but what does it have to do with your Han family, Taishou ordered that all the gains from the bandits belong to me. Are you questioning Taishou's order, or do you think my Ye family is easy to bully. ”
"Ho, ho, ho"
After Ye Chen finished speaking, the two thousand guard battalions shouted three times in unison, and the frightened Han family's doormen retreated one after another, and the person who was talking to Ye Chen was also frightened and turned pale.
In the end, under Ye Chen's strength, the Han family returned in vain.
"Young Master, according to investigation, the Han family is contacting many families to jointly ask the Ye family to return the Han family's property to him."
That night, Liu Qi and Wang Tianhammer came to report Ye Chen's latest news.
"The Han family still doesn't give up."
"The Han family spent a lot of money because of Han Dong's matter, and I heard that not only did they help Han Dong avoid responsibility, but also went to other places to become officials, so it can be seen that this time it was a bloody investment."
Wang Tianhammer monitored the Han family, and Han Dong sent people up and down to carry out activities, and he had already gotten the news.
"It seems that the Han family is indeed struggling, but they shouldn't stretch out their hands to my Ye family."
A cold light appeared in Ye Chen's eyes.
"Liu Qi, Heavenly Hammer, you go and inquire about which families want to use the Han family against my Ye family, find out the whereabouts of their caravan for me, and then report it to me."
The Han family has been building momentum in the past few days, and it has been rumored that the Ye family's bandits are for the property of the Han and Chen families, and they have bad intentions.
And got a response from several families, saying that the Ye family should indeed return the property obtained from Qingfeng Village to the Han family.
Ye Chen didn't reply to any of these rumors, and Ye Chen also knew that when the Han family was about to build momentum, he would definitely attack the Ye family again.
But since he knew their plans, Ye Chen would not let them succeed, and planned to strike first.
When Liu Qi and Wang Tianhammer reported the information of the caravan of those ill-intentioned families to Ye Chen, Ye Chen ordered that the 1,000 soldiers who were outside Li Ren pretend to be bandits again and rob them all.
At this time, Xiangping City was in a commotion again, because seven or eight caravans were robbed in three days.
When Ye Chen swept away the bandits before, the surrounding bandits were empty, and few caravans were robbed.
Now that the Ye family has stopped suppressing bandits, this bandit has emerged again, this robbery of the caravan is still a trivial matter, if it is like Qingfeng Village again, burning, killing and looting, and even doing a tragedy, how can they be good.
Many families sent a letter of worship, hoping that the Ye family would suppress the bandits again, but Ye Chen avoided it, and the important people asked Old Man Ye to come forward, and some unimportant people directly let Wu Xian deal with it.
And he practiced the halberd method for several days on end.
"Young master, this is a post sent by the Taishou Mansion, inviting you to go to the Taishou Mansion tomorrow to discuss things."
In the study, Dongxue put a letter of worship on the table. In the past few days, in addition to practicing the halberd method in the courtyard, Ye Chen is practicing the internal strength method in the study, and only Dongxue can enter this study.
Ye Chen picked up the post, the corners of his mouth turned up, and said with a smile: "It's only been a few days, and I can't sit still." ”
Of course, Ye Chen knew what they were asking him to do, but this time it was not so easy to ask the Ye family to send troops to suppress the bandits.
Because the revenge of the Ye family has been avenged this time, there is no need to do what the government should do for free.
