Chapter 37: Anti-robbery
Ye Chen led the team and walked on the path, along the way, everyone marched quickly, no one spoke, only hurried and neat footsteps.
Things tonight are very weird, Ye Chen has a feeling of being anticlimactic, except for killing Chen Ming, the others did not develop in the direction he expected.
"Young master, report urgently."
Liu Qiyi ran all the way over to report to Ye Chen, and before the war, Ye Chen asked him to pay attention to the surrounding situation and be in charge of intelligence work.
This retreat route Liu Qi focused on control, and he knew Ye Chen's whereabouts very well.
With a wave of Ye Chen's hand, the marching team stopped, the tiger head was still guarding by his side, and Tai Shici was also on guard. In the dark, even your own people should not suddenly get too close, and they should have to defend themselves as necessary.
"Say"
"Report to the young master, Wang Tianhammer has sent news that a group of people have just escaped from the city by pretending to be Qingfeng Village, washing the Chen family in blood, and creating chaos."
Liu Qi briefly told him about the information he had gotten, tonight he and Wang Tianhammer divided labor, Liu Qi was responsible for the intelligence of the march, and Wang Tianhammer was responsible for the intelligence in the city.
When Ye Chen heard the news, his head was stunned, and he couldn't react for a while.
No one spoke at the scene anymore, it was quiet, and Ye Chen's head reacted after a while.
"I understand the other party's intentions, the other party kills two birds with one stone, and wants to use Qingfeng Village to destroy the Chen family and kill people. The reason for sending a message to our Ye family and making a time difference with the Chen family is to let our Ye family help them exterminate Qingfeng Village, and they are afraid that we will not be able to completely exterminate Qingfeng Village, and a team of officers and soldiers will be arranged behind, so the officers and soldiers will be so long with Chen Ming's team. ”
"Chen Ming shouldn't know that the money in it is fake, it is completely used, if we are really a one-eyed dragon, then when we see that the money in it is fake, we must chop him on the spot, so that the two sides fight, and by the time we arrive, they should have almost killed it, and then the hatred between our Ye family and Qingfeng Village will definitely not let go of Qingfeng Village."
"In the end, the officers and soldiers killed in the name of suppressing the bandits, cleaned up the remaining bandits, took over the scene, even if there were prisoners, they were taken away by the officers and soldiers, their affairs would not be exposed, and our Ye family was thankless, at most we would give a reward or something."
With Ye Chen's analysis, everyone understood the intention of the two letters, and also knew why it was so strange tonight, why Chen Ming's team was not a little guarded, and why the officers and soldiers were so far away.
"They're so bad." The tiger head said angrily.
"Second brother, I didn't expect them to be so ruthless, and they didn't hesitate to kill so many people in order to protect themselves." Tai Shici originally had such a bad sense of these officials, but now when he saw them with such a face, he was even more disgusted.
"Liu Qi, you know the direction of their escape."
Ye Chen was also angry in his heart, he didn't expect that these people were so bad that they were simply inhumane.
"Young master, keep sending people to follow, and the news will keep coming back."
"Okay, since they are thieves from Qingfeng Village, then we should exterminate them and avenge the innocent people of my Ye family."
The 500 guard battalion suddenly changed direction and went towards the thieves of "Qingfeng Village" who were doing evil in the city, burning and looting.
"Young master, which manor did the other party run into in front." Liu Qi has been responsible for delivering news in the middle, and reporting the other party's whereabouts to Ye Chen in a timely manner.
Ye Chen marched all the way, walked seven or eight miles, and saw a very large manor in front of him.
"You know whose manor it is."
"Young master, this manor belongs to the county commander Han Dong."
"Very good, sure enough, it's you, you want to kill two birds with one stone, I'll let you eggs fly with chickens."
Ye Chen was also very angry, if Qingfeng Village hadn't been destroyed by them a long time ago, it was estimated that he would really be tricked by these people, and when the time came, he would be sold and returned to the number of people, not to mention that if he didn't do it well, he would even lose his life, just like Chen Ming, he was such an end.
"Liu Qi, you immediately send a message to Wang Tianhammer, so that the gang of thieves who escaped from the city scattered in the city an hour later broke into Han Dong's manor again."
Why did Ye Chen do this, this was to make Han Dong and them suffer a dumb loss, that gang of thieves did run into his manor, what else could the thieves of Qingfeng Village do except burn and loot? Unless they're in a group.
Liu Qi took the order and left, and Ye Chen then said to Hutou, Tai Shici and Li Ren:
"Tiger head, big brother, you will rush in later, eliminate their armed forces, Li Ren, you lead a team to guard the surroundings, and control the people who run out inside, pay attention, don't kill more if you don't resist, these people will be released when we leave."
"Yes"
The three of them took orders together.
Ye Chen led the team over quietly, they didn't have anyone to sentry at all, and they didn't know that they were touched in front of the door.
"Qingfeng Village robbery, don't resist if you don't want to die, kill!"
Ye Chen roared and led the team to kill it, there were a few guards inside, and they were cut down just as they wanted to resist.
Tai Shi Ci was jealous and hateful, and he couldn't get used to their deeds for a long time, so he rushed directly to kill, and the people inside heard the shouts of killing, and came out to meet Tai Shi Ci, and they were directly overturned a few.
Ye Chen commanded the troops to disperse, and a team of men and horses killed them.
This group of people had just been bandits in the city once, and they killed a lot of people, and the order from above was to kill all of them without leaving a single one, and they also robbed a lot of things.
Now that retribution is coming, I just returned to the nest, I just wanted to celebrate, but I didn't expect to be blocked by the real Qingfeng Village, what they didn't know was that in fact, this group of bandits in Qingfeng Village was also fake, but they didn't have a chance to know.
Soon, although there were a lot of people in Zhuangzi, there were not many armed forces, and they were killed in two strokes, some people were scared, threw their weapons and hid in the old and weak crowd, Ye Chen didn't pay attention to it, he didn't really come to kill.
When the people heard that the bandits were coming, they were all frightened and screamed, and when they saw that no one stopped them from running around, many people ran out of the door.
Li Ren was at the door, controlling the people who ran out, and at first these people did not cooperate, and he cut two of them honestly.
Li Ren didn't understand why Ye Chen let them run out, if they blocked it at the door, it would be more convenient to control it inside, but he wouldn't question Ye Chen's order, since he had given the order, he would resolutely carry it out.
Soon Ye Chen controlled the situation inside, but he didn't expect it to be smoother than he thought, although there were more than a hundred people armed inside, but as soon as he heard that the bandits were killed, they didn't have the courage to resist at all, and about half of them were killed, and the others didn't dare to resist.
"You two, each bring a team of men and horses, and collect all the valuable things for me for the king, and the king will take them away."
Ye Chen learned to speak as the bandits, and the two captains who were called by him reacted after a moment.
"Yes, big boss."
So a group of "thieves" began to rummage through the cabinets, and the things they had snatched back from the Chen family before were cheaper than Ye Chen.
"Escort the rest out of the room, keep an eye on them outside, and don't let them run around."
The rest were kept outside, trembling for fear that the bandits would cut them down.
"Second brother, what do you want to do with them next?"
Tai Shi Ci refers to the two or three hundred people who are being detained outside, most of these people are old and weak, and they are inferior.
Tai Shi Ci was afraid that Ye Chen would cut them down, and it was difficult for him to stop them, because when the Ye family was looted, he didn't care about anyone, and he would kill anyone he saw.
"We'll release them when we're leaving." Ye Chen didn't want to kill them in the first place, and if he didn't let them leave, he didn't know how long it would take to scrape here, so he had to leave time for himself to run away.
Tai Shi Ci listened to what Ye Chen said, and immediately relieved his heart.
"Young master, young master sent it, sent it."
A captain ran over and said excitedly to Ye Chen.
"Why, you've got something good."
"We found a lot of gold and silver in a secret warehouse, and a lot of title deeds."
When Ye Chen heard this, he was also very happy, he had made the shop too big, and now the Ye family was short of money, so it was not bad to be able to make a fortune here.
"Tell me how you found it."
"We went into a room when we were scraping, and there was a noble lady in it, trembling under the bed, and we wanted to pull him out, but he couldn't come out, so we lifted the bed, but we didn't expect to find that it was empty underneath, and when we opened it, it turned out to be a secret warehouse."
"Okay, a surprise, take everything you can with you."
"Yes"
A few people happily went to collect the scrape.
It took more than an hour to scrape, and the cart was loaded with several large carts, full of treasures and many valuable things.
Ye Chen looked at this carload of things and smiled very happily, this time it was impossible for the county master to steal chickens and rice.
"Tiger head, take someone to burn the entire Zhuangzi for me."
After loading the treasure, Ye Chen ordered that the entire Zhuangzi be burned.
"Young master, how do you burn Zhuangzi, then we won't be real thieves." Tiger Head didn't think about anything else, just said casually, and he had already beckoned his men to prepare to set fire.
"First of all, the officials in the county government are more terrifying than thieves; second, this side burned red through half the sky, and the city could see it, creating a terrifying atmosphere, so that they would all know that the bandits were still there; This third burning, killing and looting is like a bandit, anyway, it is the county master who is distressed. ”
"Oh" Hutou replied honestly, he didn't expect that he would ask casually, how many ways could this Ye Chen come up with.
"Let's go, Li Ren will take a bunch of back to clean up the traces."
The fire burned, red through half the sky, at this time Ye Chen and they had already retreated, because there were a few more carts of supplies, so they couldn't run fast, but Ye Chen was not worried, not afraid that someone would come to stop them.
Walking all the way, slowly, it was almost dawn before returning to the guard camp station, Ye Chen asked them to hide their things, and then rest.
Fighting twice in one night, although the enemy is too weak, but it also consumes a lot of energy, not to mention rushing for a night road.
When Ye Chen and the others were asleep, there was a commotion in the city.
