Chapter Twenty-Eight: Exterminating the Mountain Bandits (I)
The old lady of the Qi family immediately arranged for his family and family members to go to the warehouse to carry grain, and the old lady of the Qi family asked people to open the door of the fort and came to Li Zhongju with the support of a servant who looked like a housekeeper.

The old lady of the Qi family wanted to kneel, but Li Zhongju immediately supported him, "Old Qi doesn't need to make this big gift." ”
The old lady of the Qi family was grateful, "The grass people have thanked the adults." ”
Li Zhongju and the old lady of the Qi family didn't wait long, and the Qi family pulled out more than ten carts of grain from the fort.
Li Zhongju's visual inspection was definitely more than two hundred stones, "Old lady, this is more than two hundred stones." ”
The old lady of the Qi family stroked her beard, "The extra sixty stones were donated to the people by my Qi family free of charge." ”
Li Zhongju laughed and said, "The Qi family is indeed a generous family, Qi Lao rest assured, the people will remember the Qi family." ”
The old lady of the Qi family smiled and said nothing, in fact, he did this to show favor to Li Zhongju. Of course, Li Zhongju understood, but fortunately accepted it.
Li Zhongju asked the brothers of the Lieshan Camp to give all the food to the hungry people. The hungry people were given food, and they were all grateful to Lord Zhizhou.
Li Zhongju persuaded them to go home, and they were all happy to accept. I want to think who is willing to leave his hometown and leave his hometown to wander for several lifetimes.
Li Zhongju watched many hungry people leave with food, and knew in his heart that the common people were the most easily moved.
Li Zhongju said goodbye to the old lady of the Qi family and moved towards the next goal, while Li Zhongju sent scouts to explore the way.
Two hours later, the scout returned. Six miles ahead, a group of hungry people gathered, about a thousand people.
Li Zhongju immediately ordered the army to speed up the pace, and it was necessary to rush to the destination quickly to prevent the other party from evacuating elsewhere.
The hungry people sat in groups of three or five, yellow and thin, who seemed to have not eaten for days, and they were so tired that they had little strength to walk, let alone find food.
When Li Zhongju and the others came here, everyone was watching with fiery eyes, and they longed for Li Zhongju and the others to give them food and water.
Li Zhongju immediately ordered everyone to give them half of the dry food and water they carried, Li Zhongju watched these hungry people gobble up food, and he walked to the side of a prime man.
The man stood up, "Grass people, see adults. ”
Li Zhongju pulled the man to sit down and gave him a piece of dry food, "How did you come to such a field?" ”
The man sighed, "My lord, we have fallen to this point, thanks to the cattle of Wolf's Head Mountain, they are usually rampant. But this time, they are even more inhumane, burning, killing, looting and doing all kinds of evil. Take away our surplus. ”
Song Naruto stood up, "Damn, these beasts, Commander, these bandits must be punished, we haven't done anything like this before. ”
Li Zhongju nodded, "Tiezhu, you arrange for someone to inquire about the style of those bandits in Wolf's Head Mountain." ”
Zhou Tiezhu said respectfully, "It's the commander." ”
Zhou Tiezhu immediately arranged for his subordinates to visit separately, and the weekday actions of the bandits in Wolf Head Mountain must be detailed and careful.
Li Zhongju asked Song Naruto to arrange manpower and ask about the actions of Wolf's Head Mountain among these hungry people.
An hour later, dozens of soldiers from the town barracks returned here and reported to Zhou Tiezhu in detail. After Zhou Tiezhu heard this, he was furious, and he immediately explained to the commander.
Li Zhongju found that the news obtained by Zhou Tiezhu was very similar to the accounts of these hungry people, so Li Zhongju concluded that the robbers of Wolf's Head Mountain were all scum of the green forest, and these mountain bandits were innocent.
Li Zhongju decided that this time he would definitely kill this gang of robbers from Wolf Head Mountain, since these bandits dared to kill the people and rob the people's finances so blatantly, then they must pay the price of blood.
Li Zhongju assured these hungry people that he would definitely exterminate the bandits in Wolf Head Mountain and recapture food for everyone, and Li Zhongju selected 200 people to follow the army forward.
In the anticipation of many hungry people, Li Zhongju ordered the army to advance in the direction of Wolf Head Mountain.
Along the way, the brothers of the Lieshan Battalion and the Zhenjun Battalion were all full of resentment, and in the past two years, under the teaching of Li Zhongju, they had a special hatred for those officials and robbers who did not take human life seriously.
Li Zhongju and the others looked at Wolf's Head Mountain and took a deep breath in their hearts, this is definitely a mountain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
According to the spies, there are two paths to the top of the mountain, one is the avenue directly ahead, and the other is the trail on the left. The rest are cliffs.
Li Zhong raised his brows and frowned slightly, and looked at Song Naruto, "Naruto, you take the Lieshan battalion to attack from this avenue, and I lead the brother of the town battalion to attack from the trail on the left." ”
Song Ming said, "Commander, for the attack on Wolf's Head Mountain, it is enough to have our Lieshan Battalion, Commander, you should wait for our news." ”
Li Zhong's eyes were determined, "Naruto, it's settled, and in forty minutes, you guys will start climbing." ”
Song Naruto could only follow the commander's arrangement.
Naruto Song looked at the commander's distant back, his eyes became resolute, and he began to time. He understood that the commander's orders must be obeyed, and he could only wait silently for time to pass.
It only took Li Zhongju twenty minutes to go around to the east of Wolf's Head Mountain, and Li Zhongju saw this path. Sure enough, it was very small, and at most two people could walk side by side.
Li Zhongju began to climb the mountain with the soldiers of the 300 town barracks, and Li Zhongju ordered everyone not to make too much noise. Li Zhongju used a telescope to observe the situation ahead, and almost all the activities of the mountain bandits were exposed in front of Li Zhongju.
Li Zhongju used a silencer gun to kill more than a dozen mountain bandits, and at the same time, he did not let more mountain bandits know. This has to be said to be good news.
Finally, twenty minutes later, Li Zhongju and the brothers of the town military camp all climbed to the top of the mountain. The crowd found out that they had overestimated the bandits, who were barely fortified on the trail, and that would have cost them dearly.
Li Zhongju led his men to grope to the north and sent a platoon of troops down the mountain to meet the army. Li Zhongju and the others lurked, thanks to the lack of discipline of the mountain bandits, they estimated that they did not know anything other than burning, killing, looting, eating, drinking, and merrymaking.
Fifteen minutes later, with dozens of gunshots, the mountain bandits finally reacted, and under the leadership of the big boss, more than 600 people rushed towards the avenue to the north.
But it was too late, and Song Naruto led the army to arrive one step ahead of the mountain bandits and joined forces with Li Zhongju.
The head of the Wolf Head Mountain had a big beard on his face, looking at the dense crowd of people on the other side, and his heart was annoyed and angry, "Who are you, what are you doing in my Wolf Head Mountain?" ”
Song Mingren roared loudly, "We are the subordinates of Lord Zhizhou, and we went up to Wolf's Head Mountain to exterminate your group of animals. ”
The bearded man said, "Our brothers in Wolf's Head Mountain didn't just rob those untouchables of some food, and those untouchables dared to resist, and we burned their houses in a fit of rage." ”
Li Zhongju said lightly, "Sure enough, it is an animal act, and you only have one way now, and that is to lay down your weapons and accept the review of the state capital." For those who have not killed anyone, the state will punish them lightly, and those whose hands are covered with blood will be punished severely by the state. What do you think? ”
The bearded face was gloomy, and he stared at Li Zhongju tightly.
