Chapter 220: Thieves in brocade clothes rarely have the guts
There is a group of thieves in brocade clothes in Linjiang County, Ba County, there are about hundreds of people, the first name of the thieves is Gan Ning, the word Xingba, and the number is Qu Shuai, a thief in brocade clothes. It is rumored that he has a lot of strength at a young age, and he is quite powerful, which impresses everyone, because the handsome Gan Ning loves brocade clothes, so his subordinates wear brocade clothes.
It is said that in addition to those who are courteous to him, Gan Ning will have good entertainment with them, otherwise, Gan Ning will let his subordinates plunder their goods, and now, this gang of brocade robbers and thieves are robbing the people everywhere, and merchants come and go on both sides of the river, and the land of Jingshu is wanton and indulgent, and the county has sent troops to arrest them several times but cannot be cured.
This is the news that Fu Quan got from his thief Cao Pengshi, and he didn't care too much about the others, only the leader of the group of thieves in brocade made him pay attention to it, because he was the general of Eastern Wu in history, and Gan Ning, who was still a young thief at this time.
"The robber is also a thief in brocade?" Fu Quan asked the injured thief Cao Pengshi.
The thief Cao Pengshi replied: "Exactly! Brocade thieves all wear brocade clothes, and Ba County strongmen and non-brocade robbers have this force. After that, he gave a detailed account of what had happened to them after they had met Fuquan today.
Let's say that the thief Cao Pengshi got the method provided by Fuquan to catch the thief, so he led people inside and outside Jiangzhou County to spread the body of the vicious thief who was found by the official office, and asked his family members to go to identify the body, only saying that he was killed by the bandits. Sure enough, an old woman cried and entered the official office, saying that the victim was her son, and the thief Cao Pengshi got the news and immediately lied to the old woman and asked him about his son's identity and history.
After some understanding, the thief Cao Pengshi learned that the old woman's son was a ranger in the county, and he loved to wander outside since he was a child, causing trouble, but he was weak but still achieved nothing. In the past, he often disappeared, but fortunately he had an older brother at home who served his mother, of course, this does not mean that he is not filial, on the contrary, he is extremely filial to his mother, and he will bring something to please his mother when he comes back in the past, even if he is still wearing ugly clothes.
However, all this has changed since last year, and according to her mother's words, her son seems to have been a bodyguard in Padang, and the lord's family is very powerful and rich, and he is very good to her son, and he is constantly rewarded, and he has no worries about food and clothing. With the money, he went home more often than before, and brought better things, especially when he was no longer wearing ugly clothes, and he always showed people in brocade clothes as if he had changed his appearance, and was accompanied by a big horse, all of which indicated that the old woman and son were different from the past, and that he had made a fortune from then on.
After talking about her son's past, the old woman cried bitterly, and the thief Cao Pengshi persuaded him with good words, so he arranged for someone to take care of the old woman, and he gathered all his manpower and went to arrest the old woman's son outside the city.
Others may not be able to analyze much information about the old woman's words, but this thief Cao Peng has a different history, he has been arresting criminals for many years, and he has a lot of experience in criminal investigation and handling cases. The previous time I only knew the thief's face, and it was not the next generation, and it was very difficult to find that person among the hundreds of thousands of people in Ba County, but now that I know his identity and the information provided by his mother, I can't analyze the clues of the thief at this time, and he can really be dismissed.
When the old woman said that her son worked as a guard in Padang and was often rewarded, the thief Cao Pengshi sneered in his heart. If the old woman's son is really a guest of a wealthy family, he can travel back and forth between Jiangzhou and Padang so frequently, and that wealthy family can let his guests be so casual? I'm afraid that I've made a fortune by robbing houses outside, but this time I guess I saw the four silk cloths in the hands of the passer-by, and when I saw the wealth, I set up an ambush and looted in the mountains and forests outside the city.
One of the old women said that his son would stay a few more days and then go to Padang with his friend, and the thief Cao Pengshi was immediately alert, and his intuition told him that his son was probably hiding at his friend's house, so he quickly asked for the location. However, the old woman did not know the location of her son's friend's house, but vaguely heard him say that it must be in the northern suburbs of the city.
The news was very confused, but it was much stronger than nothing, and after getting the news, the thief Cao Pengshi took people to the suburbs in the north of Jiangzhou City to investigate the news. Perhaps as luck would have been, someone had seen the old woman's son, and they quickly found the old woman's son as instructed by others, hiding in a remote thatched hut in the countryside.
As Fu Quan expected, because he was afraid that he had just robbed four silk cloths and would be heard by the government detectives when he brought them home, the old woman and son had no intention of returning home immediately, and planned to send the silk cloth home to his mother after a while.
However, the servants of the government apparently underestimated the vigilance of the thief, and when they gathered outside the hut, the thief spotted the people in the house, and hurriedly rolled up the soft in the hut and fled from the house. It was nothing, but a few pieces of silver and silk cloth and the stolen silk cloth, and when he put them on his rhubarb horse, the thief mounted his horse with his sword in his hand, and galloped away, intending to flee quickly.
But the government servants who came were not fools, and when horses galloped in, how could they not see the thief come out, especially the thief described by the vendor who had robbed the silk cloth, and the person who was ridden by the big yellow horse was exactly the same, and they immediately guessed that this man was the thief they had been looking for.
At this moment, how can these government servants tolerate the ducks in their hands flying? In particular, Cao Pengshi, the thief who brought people and money, was even more furious, but he made a military order in front of Fu Quan, to arrest this thief, can he allow this thief to escape? He immediately ordered his subordinate servants to arrest all the thieves.
After all, when the thief Cao Pengshi came to arrest him, he had experience, and blocked all the thieves' escape from all sides, and on the path east of the thatched hut, the eight conscripts were not afraid of the big yellow horse that was coming, and they immediately separated, and at the same time took out the rope in their hands, separated on both sides of the road, and pulled the rope, as long as the thief rode a horse, he would definitely be tripped. To be on the safe side, they pulled not one, but four in a row, so that the thief would not be able to leap away.
Of course, the idea of these eight government servants was a little redundant, and the unique Shu mountain horse that the thieves rode could not jump off their ropes to stop them. The mountain roads in Shu are rugged, not conducive to horses walking, and there are few horses, even the county soldiers do not have a decent army, even if there are cavalry, the horses ridden are mostly short Shu mountain horses, and the big horses in the north of the Central Plains can not be compared at all, this kind of mountain horses can jump over two roads, it is thank God.
And the thief was able to have a yellow horse, which he also snatched from other counties, so the tragedy was already doomed, and after the thief had crossed the first rope, the horse's hooves under his crotch had just crossed the second rope, and he fell to the ground with a bang.
Seeing this, the surrounding servants shouted and drew their knives to arrest the thief, who knew that the thief also reacted very quickly, before they rushed over, regardless of the pain of the fall on his body and dismounted, he immediately got up, he had no intention of surrendering and being captured, picked up the long sword he dropped beside him, and fought with the eight servants.
Obviously, those conscripts in Jiangzhou County are much less ferocious than the thieves who lick blood at the tip of their knives all day long, and the eight people fought with this person, and some of them were afraid of the thieves' soldiers, and they couldn't be subdued for a while. But it didn't matter, because then dozens of government servants had already arrived in a hurry, and they joined the battle, and in a short time, the thief's whole body had been cut with several blood marks, and the blood continued to flow out, staining his brocade clothes.
Two fists are hard to beat four hands, not to mention where are the four hands facing the two fists now, the dozens of hands faced by the thieves, even if the official soldiers on the opposite side are afraid, in the sneak attack between the thieves can not take care of, they can cut a bloody mark on his brocade clothes. Of course, the price of leaving several blood marks on his body was that several conscripts also fell on the ground at this moment, they were wounded by stabs, and they were covering their wounds on the ground and screaming in pain.
After about dozens of battles, under the group beating, even if the thief had courage, he was exhausted, and if he did not surrender again, he would either be besieged and killed by the government soldiers, or he would lose too much blood and die.
"Don't resist, thief, you have an old mother, if the old mother hears the news of your death, how can you be safe?" The thief Cao Pengshi saw his subordinates who had fallen to the ground, and he couldn't bear to increase the casualties in his heart, so he signaled his subordinates to surround the thief, and shouted loudly, hoping that his mother would make the thief surrender.
However, this thief Cao Pengshi obviously thought too simply, the thief was not moved at all, and while the thief Cao Pengshi was speaking, he simply tightened his brocade clothes, picked up his own thin soft on the ground, and raised his knife and walked towards the horse that had just gotten up not far away. It didn't take to see that the thief wanted to kill his horse and flee with his softness, ignoring the few servants beside his horse, even though his blood was bleeding from his wounds.
The thief Cao Pengshi was furious and said: "The shaft is hateful! Above! ”
At the sound of the order, the government servants went after the thieves they had surrounded them, and seeing their bloodthirsty eyes as the battle progressed, they thought that if the thief did not surrender, they would not mind his death.
Before long, he slashed at the thief several times, screaming in pain, and fell directly to the ground, and there were several sharp knives behind him, seeing that he couldn't hide, and maybe even lost his life.
However, at this moment, I heard a loud shout not far from the side of the road: "Official dog thief, don't bully my brother." ”
Before he could react, he saw several people galloping on horseback, all of them had bravery, under the left and right slashing on the horse, more than ten people were injured at once, and several people fell directly to the ground, but no one was their enemy. When he reacted, he saw that there were two more men in brocade clothes riding horses beside the thief, and they dismounted at this moment, and were about to pull the thief on his horse.
Seeing this scene, this thief Cao Pengshi was furious, how could a duck with a beak make it fly? Swinging the knife, he took the lead in slashing at the two thieves, but at this time, there were four knights in brocade clothes on horseback, raising knives to stop, slashing and killing, about dozens of rounds, the official servants were not in time, and several people were injured in a row, and even the thief Cao Pengshi was also stabbed twice.
"I didn't think the Jiangzhou conscripts were so weak, go!"
After hearing a contemptuous mockery, everyone in the government hurriedly turned their heads to look. At this time, they realized that there was a young man in brocade behind the thieves, and he was holding in his hand a long sword that he was tall enough to use, shorter than the average perennial person, and now the short sword was also reflected in blood. Obviously, after the rush just now, this young man also cut people, and looking at the torn brocade clothes on his body, he was also unscathed.
Who the hell are these people? Even if an adult is like this, how can a teenager have this force?
Of course, the thieves obviously didn't give them time to think about it, and then after the wounded thief and him were lifted on their horses, one of them rode away with the wounded thief first, and the others broke off to defend themselves against the surging government soldiers. Soon after the thieves had withdrawn, the thieves had slain some of the official soldiers, and then turned their horses around and walked away.
During the whole process, the group of brocade thieves had a clear division of labor, some people rescued, and some people broke off, and they did not give the government soldiers who were somewhat weak in force on the opposite side a chance at all.
Soon, only the injured soldiers on the ground were screaming in pain, and the blood-stained servants were looking around in a daze, even the thief Cao Pengshi, the thief they had worked so hard to pursue, just ran away, leaving behind a wounded big yellow horse that they couldn't take away.
If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't take it away, I believe that some of them would still ride away if they rode horses, and nothing would be left for them, how could these brocade clothes people be so strong?
Knowing that there was no hope of arresting the thief, Cao Pengshi ordered everyone to check whether anyone had died and treat his injured companions, but fortunately, this was not a battlefield, except for two who were seriously injured, everyone else was slightly injured, but no one died, just go back for treatment.
Of course, after thinking about it carefully, the thief Cao Pengshi felt more and more that this group of people was a famous rogue in brocade clothes in the Jingshu area, in order to reduce the accountability of Taishou Fuquan, the thief Cao Pengshi did not go to verify, so he said his guess.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Fu Quan was silent for a while, and did not say much, allowing him to recuperate from his injuries with peace of mind, and at the same time treating his injured subordinates, and then letting him leave. As for the arrest of the thief, he put it down, sent the thief's mother home, and told the story in detail, so that the old man would not worry any more, and the merchant who had been robbed gave some money from the county office and bought the silk cloth that was no longer there. After that, let this thief Cao Pengshi push down.
However, this thief Cao Pengshi obviously didn't know why Fu Quan really didn't blame him. Because Fu Quan remembered the group of brocade-clothed people with blood on his body when he returned to the city, at that time, he only said that they were fighting with people in private, let down their guard, and then there was the young man beside him, so he believed most of them, and now it seems that he was the one who suffered from the young man's way.
Ningan?
Gan Ning?
It turned out that the young man he met was Gan Ning, who later led more than 100 people in Dongwu and dared to attack Cao Ying, who was stationed by tens of thousands of people at night.
Thinking about it, Fu Quan couldn't help but be dumbfounded, if it weren't for his courage, he would dare to save a companion who was surrounded by dozens of people now, if it weren't for this courage, would he have the story of more than 100 people attacking Wei Ying later? Regardless of the outcome of the attack, the courage of rushing is admirable.
It's just that Fu Quan admires Gan Ning again, and now he is the Taishou of Bajun, but he can't tolerate Gan Ning's reckless behavior.
It seems that we have to find a way to clean up this group of brocade thieves.
The night was deep, and Fu Quan looked at the lights in the house, squinting his eyes, and thinking quietly.
Thanks to Xincheng for rewarding him with 1 yuan for the old boy I.
Gan Ning, the word Xingba, has little strength, is a good ranger, recruits a light and thin boy, and is handsome for it. Gather together, hold bows and crossbows, carry bells, and when the people hear the bells, they know that it is Ning. People meet each other, and belong to the city chief, and the reception of the generous is with **; No, the place will take away its assets.
Later, Cao Gong came out of the wet beard, and Ning was the front governor, and he was sent out to cut off the enemy's front camp. The right to give rice wine to the public, Ning Nai is expected to give more than 100 people under his command to eat...... At the time of the second watch, the title was out to kill the enemy. The enemy was alarmed and retreated.
Excerpt from "Three Kingdoms: The Biography of Gan Ning"
At this time, although Gan Ning was not an adult, after all, he wandered the society and often left home, which is an example of less travel, and it should be taken as a table.
