From the eyes of Yu Shiqian and others, you can see some traces of the old battlefield, there are also some abandoned piers, abandoned villages, and some villages are inhabited, these villages are full of fire and smoke, the people who are hiding are searched out, killed on the spot, some people are left to be guides, some women are arrested, the children or babies they are holding are killed on the spot, and the soldiers laugh and insult them in the cry of the women, and then put these women in the women's camp until their eyes are dull, Kill it after being scrawny.

If a beautiful woman is caught, the soldiers will be presented to the leader, and a group of soldiers grabbed a teenage girl, and while laughing, they sent the woman to Zhou Daniu's side.

This group of soldiers was Zhou Da Niu's subordinates, and they were also in awe of the taciturn and brave Zhou Da Niu. Yu Shiqian's command is all border troops, but the border army only represents rich experience, not necessarily brave and daring to die, Zhou Daniu is a famous martial arts and courage of both generals, his subordinates also have more than 300 people, in fact, according to Zhou Daniu's merits should bring more subordinates, but the entire team of thieves is only about 2,000, Yu Shiqian will never ask Zhou Daniu to bring more manpower, in case his power is unbalanced.

"Leave the people behind." Seeing this, Zhou Daniu commanded helplessly.

The girl looks very ordinary, but she is young, and she looks a little smart, if Zhou Daniu would not accept this girl before, but now he knows that if he doesn't accept it, this group of soldiers will take it down and humiliate her, and then send people to the women's camp, so that the girl will suffer more, and he just lacks a person who washes clothes, so he simply stayed.

Zhou Daniu instructed his own soldiers to bring people back and follow his Chinese army, and he and Cheng Fang rushed to Yu Shiqian's side.

"Lingqiu ahead."

The guide who was caught and Lao Zhou observed the terrain together, there was a jade belt-like river in front of everyone's eyes, there were still endless mountains on both sides of the river, there were few plains, many acres of fields were in the middle of the mountainside and even the top of the hillside, like a patch, this winter was obviously drought and severe cold, the wheat seedlings planted in autumn were not very good, the wheat seedlings were sparse and pulled, some were tall and some were short, there were many places where the wheat seedlings did not come out at all, as if the top of the half-bald head of a person, mottled and scattered, very ugly.

"This river is the Tang River, down is the Ganges River, the two rivers are one or two hundred miles long, to the north is the Sanggan River and the Baiyang River, those two are big rivers, behind us is the Pingxing Pass, and in front of us is the Lingqiu, where there are many mountains, which is the Yinshan Mountain Range."

The local guide only knows the general road, such as from the road in front of him, there are three separate official roads in front, one to Guangling, one to Lingqiu, one to Fanzhi, here in Jindong is seven mountains and two rivers and a field, the place is large, but it is mostly high mountains and hilly areas, there are many Buddhist temples and scenic spots, there are few towns, from Fanzhi to Lingqiu and then to Guangling, if it is in Nanzhili, the number of prefectures and counties is probably several more, and the population number is more than ten times, but here in Shanxi, there are few villages as far as the eye can see, In front of you, there are countless mountains and rivers that you can't see.

Yu Shiqian looked ahead and said to Lao Zhou: "Is there any news from Datong?" ”

"No," Lao Zhou said with a smile: "They are pretending to be blind now, they will never report to the court, not to report to the court, those general soldiers, deputy generals, how can they leave the letter without permission, they now wish that we are not to Lingqiu, even if we go to Lingqiu, we will grab a vote and leave, or hide in the mountains as ordinary bandits, if we go back to Shanxi or go to Beizhili, those people are happy." ”

Yu Shiqian said: "Think about the people above are indeed like this, since this is the case, let's go to Lingqiu, and then to the Tianchengwei realm, and then find a way to go west after this winter." ”

There were many border troops from Shaanxi and Gansu in this group of thieves, and this was a force that Yu Shiqian could not ignore. In addition, in recent years, there have been many displaced people in Shaanxi and Gansu, and the border army has also lived a very hard life, Yu Shiqian feels that he may coerce more people to come in when he arrives in northern Shaanxi.

He said with great ambition: "We want to capture Lingqiu and Guangling and other cities, make a big noise, and then store food and use Lingqiu's iron weapons to build weapons, so that even if there are border troops to fight, we don't have to be too afraid." ”

Yu Shiqian turned his head to a middle-aged man behind him and said, "Lao Li, you said that Lingqiu has a lot of fine iron, is it true?" ”

"Lao Li" is Li Mingda, he is Fan Yongdou personally confessed to run to this group of thieves, this time Fan Yongdou promised him a full five thousand taels of silver, enough for him to earn a huge amount of money that he can't earn in two lifetimes, people die for money, birds die for food, otherwise he would never dare to run into the team of thieves to take such a risk.

"It's true." Li Mingda said boldly: "If it's not true, wouldn't I be joking with my own life." ”

Yu Shiqian stared at Li Mingda and smiled.

Li Mingda felt like he was being stared at by a poisonous snake, Yu Shiqian's eyes were lifeless, and there was no trace of human emotion, only indifference and cruelty, as well as a violent atmosphere.

In the past half a month, Li Mingda has been following this team of thieves, instigating the other party to go in the direction of Lingqiu and Li Zhuang, saying that Lingqiu has a large amount of fine iron, and Li Zhuang is the storage area of Heyusheng...... None of this was a lie, but he didn't mention Zhang Han and the archer force he controlled from beginning to end.

Whether it is Fan Yongdou or Li Mingda, they are a little afraid of what Zhang Han has come up with, they are afraid that Zhang Han will come up with something new, and they are also worried that Yu Shiqian and others will be afraid and dare not come, so Fan Yongdou told Li Mingda not to say anything from beginning to end, so as not to cause trouble.

After Yu Shiqian smiled, he said to Li Mingda: "Lao Li, you come with us, and you will naturally know whether what you say is true or false." ”

Li Mingda's heart sank, he originally planned to leave before entering Lingqiu.

Li Mingda said: "I am a businessman below, and this time I came only because the proprietor ordered him to instigate the big cabinet to go to the enemy's territory, in fact, it is this selfishness, if people see it......"

Yu Shiqian stared at Li Mingda with emotionless eyes: "Enter Lingqiu, go to the mining area and find the iron field with refined iron you said, and naturally let you go." ”

"Yes......" Li Mingda nodded helplessly, smashed his mouth, and suddenly remembered something, and said to Yu Shiqian: "Big cabinet, that Zhang Han donated a patrol a while ago and recruited hundreds of tiger scoundrels as archers, if this person hears that we have committed an iron field against him, he may come to fight." ”

"Lao Li, you have been spitting and spitting all the time, as if you are hiding some great secret, it turns out that it is a big thing?" Yu Shiqian laughed, pointing at Li Daming and laughing with great joy.

Zhou Daniu and Cheng Fang smiled, and the leaders of the other group of border soldiers also smiled forward and backwards.

"Lao Li," Yu Shiqian laughed for a while, then pulled Li Mingda's arm and said, "Unless it is General Ma who brings his family to the Zheng barracks, I am not afraid that other generals in Datong Town will bring troops to come, I am afraid of a merchant patrolling and his archers?" Into your mother, Lao Tzu is in a good mood now, otherwise I will give you two knives first! ”

Li Mingda knew that Yu Shiqian's words were by no means a joke...... This group of people relies on all kinds of evil methods to subdue others, make people afraid, and use brutal methods to gather morale, and the newcomers who are coerced in will become very evil after a while, because if they are not evil in this group, they will be eaten, and the end will be very miserable, Yu Shiqian is a big cabinet, and he is of course the most evil one.

These days, Li Mingda has seen with his own eyes that Yu Shiqian has killed a lot of people, many of them have been killed inexplicably, a cook, just now Yu Shiqian also praised him for his good cooking, the cook said a few words, and in a blink of an eye Yu Shiqian asked someone to skin him alive, while he was eating, he watched the soldiers peel the cook, the cook's skin was cut off with a knife layer by layer, and the screams were heard ten miles away, Li Mingda had a fever that night, and his mind was full of the bloody corpse of the cook...... Although Li Mingda also understands that Yu Shiqian's killing is to establish authority and make people afraid, there is no way for him not to be afraid...... Ordinary people are like that.

Li Mingda knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and said: "If you know your mistakes below, don't be angry in the big cabinet." ”

Yu Shiqian said: "As long as the fine iron is enough, Lao Tzu will not punish you, and will even give you a reward to ask you to go back, but what you want to say is not true, what is wrong or missing, Lao Li, I will ask someone to skin you alive." ”

Li Mingda was trembling all over, and he was speechless.

……

Above the valley at dusk.

"It's about eighteen to two thousand, or they have some people still hiding behind them, but there won't be too many, it's basically certain."

"Well, yes, that's for sure."

Wen Zhongfa spat out, his lips were very dry, and there was not much water in this spit, and the other team member lay on the side, making notes with a hard pen.

Since the time of the sentence, the members of this small group of intelligence officers have been following the thieves of the brigade, almost out of sight, and they follow them in shifts even at night, fearing that the thieves will act at night.

Several members of the team had asked for sabotage missions, and their intelligence bureau sounded like it was just gathering intelligence, but in fact, in the Department of Internal Guards, they were the organization that had received the most training in skirmishes.

In fact, the Operations Bureau secretly focuses on assassination training behind enemy lines, picking locks over walls, using incense, night raids, and kidnapping, these are the things that the Operations Bureau trains the most.

The intelligence bureau is divided into two groups, one is the civilian intelligence group, and the other is the military intelligence group, and the military intelligence group may encounter the enemy and conduct small-scale engagements, so the training of the military intelligence group has always been the responsibility of Wang Changfu and his instructors, and the regular military training of small-scale engagements is carried out.

Wen Zhong found that he was one of the deputy leaders of the military intelligence team, and there were also deputy directors, directors, and then deputy directors of the Department of Internal Security, and then Yang Qiu, the director of the department.

His status is equivalent to the captain of the deputy flag, plus various subsidies from the military intelligence team, the monthly salary is fifteen taels, this salary is already very thick, and it is difficult to earn so much for the head of the general army, but compared with the old brothers who followed Zhang Han together, Wen Zhongfa is the most outdated one-

Recently, I found that six o'clock in the evening is a more fixed time, and there are buddies in the book review area who raise the problem of fixed time, if nothing else, this point should be fixed.

In addition, thank you for your support, I also saw some familiar IDs, such as Miao Renfeng, which is my old reader.

A buddy gave me a reward of 5,000 coins and 11 popularity tickets, which is the largest reward in recent times, thank you very much.

Recently, two chapters a day have been fixed, and I really hope that there will be more tickets.
