Chapter 48

Lian Zhan pulled out his longbow, the arrows came out in response, and the messenger fell to the ground, leaving only Lian Zhan's chuckle: "Why don't you know where you are when labor and management were in Kowloon Village?" ”

Lian Zhan quickly left this place with people, and two days later, the letter was handed over to the military division, who hurriedly sent the letter to Lu Zhonglian and Tian Ba, and the two were very angry when they saw it, and immediately ordered Lian Zhan to lead a thousand guards to seal up the Rao'an Mansion, and detain all the relevant people of the Rao'an Prefect.

Due to the swift action, no one escaped the legal net, and no one in Longquan Mountain knew the news of Ran Fei's march of the army.

Zhao Tian has not been in the rivers and lakes for a day or two, and several people from the Xie family have not been caught that day because Ran Fei's guards have not been caught, and Ran Fei is Shangqing, he will definitely bring troops to destroy himself, and there are a few subordinates or, he has sent killers, the other party must have been chilled, and reported his affairs to Ran Fei, so he strictly ordered his subordinates to set up sentry posts in various key places and wait for them solemnly.

Longquan Mountain is more than 100 miles east of Xiaoquan Village, here are barren mountains and dense forests, sparsely populated, Ran Fei listened to the words of the fierce bandit, and had a general understanding of this place, but Ran Fei was puzzled that there were people behind Zhao Tian, the drama bandit said, this person is very mysterious, half of the bandits in Longquan Mountain are his people, originally Longquan Mountain was just a small bandit den with only twenty or thirty people, but after this person came, Zhao Tian suddenly began to recruit troops, and the number increased sharply, Moreover, this person also brought more than eighty people to garrison here, all of them masters, and every time this person came, he would wear a black cloak and hide his appearance, except for the high-ranking people, no one had seen him.

Ran Fei once again strengthened his opinion, this bandit in Longquan Mountain has someone above the court, and this person's position is not low.

When they arrived in a village at the foot of the Longquan Mountains, Ran Fei's troops were stationed next to the village, where they could buy supplies from the villagers on the one hand, and inquire about the bandits from the villagers on the other hand.

In order to save people, Ran Fei deliberately dropped Zhang Dali from the northern border, and asked him to take a team of people to check the terrain, the result was very unsatisfactory, Zhang Dali came back after reconnaissance and said that this place is not only easy to defend and difficult to attack, but also the other party has sent heavy troops in various dangerous places, not only that, but there are also open and dark sentinels, if it is not entrenched on Longquan Mountain, this is no different from the army. There were only two ways up the mountain, one near the village and the other in the east, and not only did the expedition make no progress, but also injured several brothers, and Ran Fei couldn't help frowning.

After a few days, Jiyang sent someone to come, saying that the equipment of the Sword Casting Hall was ready, and now it had begun to cast the sword, this was good news, everyone felt very happy, Ran Fei gave a few instructions, wrote it on the letter, and asked people to take it back.

If it is a strong attack on Longquan Mountain, these five hundred people will definitely not be enough, but if people are really transferred to attack it, there will definitely be heavy casualties, and Ran Fei will definitely not do such a business, but if Longquan Mountain is not attacked earlier, Shan Girl will definitely be in danger.

It's just that Ran Fei doesn't understand a little, the people of Longquan Mountain said that they have been guarding here for some time, that is, during the previous battle of Qiyan, but now that so much time has passed, he has not received a single report, even if the prefect wants to hide it, but the military must know that the only explanation is that the bandits in Longquan Mountain not only collude with government officials, but also have people in the army!

Thinking about it, even the children of the doctors of the dynasty dare to kidnap, the strength behind this bandit must be not small, and it has something to do with the military, it must be possible, and look at the appearance of this defense.

This is even more difficult, if it is an ordinary bandit, as long as the leader is killed, the rest are birds and beasts fleeing separately, but if it is related to the army, a commander dies, and there is a deputy commander, and if you get the training of the army, then the combat effectiveness is not a matter of one plus one.

Ran Fei suddenly felt that the seriousness of the matter had reached the point where it was difficult to control, so he prepared to report to the King of Qi and ask him to thoroughly investigate the high-level of Qi first, and then deal with the problem of Jiulong Mountain.

Ran Fei handed over the talisman to Zhang Dali and asked him to gather 2,000 people to come to Longquan Mountain and surround Longquan Mountain! Then he personally went to Linzi and reported to the king of Qi.

But as soon as Ran Fei arrived at the gate of the Qi Palace, he was stopped by the scholar Yin Wen.

Yin Wen is already in his fifties, and he has only one son under his knees, and at this moment his son was robbed, and he has prepared money and is ready to ransom people, but as soon as he heard that Ran Fei led people to surround Longquan Mountain inside and out, he was anxious, if he provoked these bandits and killed Yin Ziqiu, then how could he give a message to his ancestors! Originally, he was going to go to Longquan Mountain quietly to see Ran Fei, but later he heard that Ran Fei had come to Linzi, looked for someone to inquire around, and finally stopped Ran Fei at the gate of the Qi Palace.

Yin Wen clasped his fists and said respectfully: "Ran Shangqing, can you take a step to speak?" Yin Wen pointed to his carriage.

Ran Fei had only met him a few times and was not familiar with him, but he knew that he was Yin Wen, and he also thought that he must have come here for Yin Ziqiu's business, so he also replied respectfully: "Doctor Yin has something to say, I still have something important to report to my king here!" ”

When Yin Wen heard this, he immediately panicked and pleaded: "Shangqing, can you listen to me?" Don't report this to the king! ”

Ran Fei was puzzled: "Why?" ”

Yin Wen pulled him aside and said sadly: "It's not that I don't want to tell the king, we have long known that the bandits in Jiulong Mountain have a minister behind them, but do you know who is supporting them?" ”

Ran Fei knew that this matter was very important, and said to Yin Wen: "Get in the carriage and talk about it." ”

Yin Wendao: "Okay! ”

After getting into the carriage, Yin Wen asked the coachman to take the car to a secluded place, the coachman was Yin Wen's confidant, and when he got to the place, he got out of the car and looked around.

Ran Fei said: "Okay, Doctor Yin can say it!" ”

Yin Wen: "The court officials behind Jiulong Mountain are the queen's younger brothers, and Hou Sheng!" ”

Ran Fei frowned: "It's actually him!" I thought he was just a gentleman, and it was okay to do some things like stealing chickens and dogs, but I didn't expect him to be the boss behind this Jiulong Mountain! ”

Yin Wen continued: "If it's just a late victory, it's not a matter of worry, it's just that there is a military person behind this Jiulong Mountain!" ”

Ran Fei didn't feel any surprise, because he had already thought of this: "This, I thought of it after sending someone to reconnoiter the terrain of Jiulong Mountain, Jiulong Mountain is steep, not only are there heavy guards in various dangerous places, but the other party also arranges open and dark sentinels, not only that, the last time I fought with them, I found that their weapons were not much different from ours!" If it were an ordinary bandit, how could they have such sophisticated weapons. ”
