Ever since Xiao Ye met with the Huang family's caravan in Shiguantun and took out the novel goods, he knew that there would be more and more people who secretly hated him in the future, but he didn't expect the disaster to come so quickly.

Doesn't it say that the officials pay attention to the golden mean, doesn't it say that the family pays attention to face, Ximen Xiaoye, who originally had a sense of awe for the government and the family, has completely reversed his mentality since he saw the tragic situation of his own guards in the Thousand Households of the Gravel Castle.

The greed of the high-ranking officials and merchants made him shudder.

Not to mention that in the past year, the nightmares have been repeated every once in a while, and the tragic scene of corpses accumulating on the bloody land shaking the mountains is enough to make Xiao Ye's eyes jump away from the so-called world court in the south that entertains itself.

If someone dares to stretch out his wanton hand again, he will have to raise his fire/gun.

In order to keep his luck and opportunity, for the survival of his family, for his subordinates to be fed and clothed, there is a fire kang stone house where he can live, and he can only step on the bones on the ground, whether these bones are Tartars or Han people.

When he walked to the Madao Stone Fort, he couldn't turn back, and there were too many people who wanted him to die.

He will do his best to take in the poor and homeless, but he will not wait to be captured by the merchants, the people in the government, and the Mongolian Tartars who want to attack his idea.

Yang Eighteen's first military trip was to clean up the spies near Madao Stone Fort, no matter which one it was, Xiao Ye would not waste his strength to screen them, and they would all be destroyed.

In Wang Ziliang's information to Da Liu, it has been marked that within a radius of thirty miles, there are nine red dots scattered in the vine grass wilderness, and these people are surrounded by spies far away, since they dare to go deep into the vine grass to lurk, they must have the consciousness of staying forever.

Often walking by the river, it is reasonable to fall into the water.

For these stubborn diseases and malignant tumors that have been cleaned up in waves, Wang Ziliang can only ask Xiao Ye for instructions, and send people to clean them again and again, which can be regarded as giving the black-clothed guards the opportunity to practice actual combat, so as not to lose the kung fu in their hands.

Along the deserted path to the east of the valley, Da Liu, wearing a double-layer protective suit, held a repeating crossbow in his hand, a hunting knife and a box cannon in his waist, and carried three days' worth of dry food and drinking water on his back, and nothing else was carried; Like him, Yang Eighteen, who was full of caution, already had a layer of sweat stains on the crossbow in his hand.

"No, chewing these things, even if you are pricked by a poisonous stinger, it will feel better," Da Liu slowed down and gave some young leaves in his hand to Yang Shiba, who was also chewing lightly in his mouth.

By the moonlight, Yang Shibai checked the young leaves in his hand hard, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, isn't this thing the young shoots and young leaves of the poisonous weeds on the roadside, it turns out that this can detoxify?

Hey, the homeless people in Xilong River, but more than a dozen people have died unjustly, and the antidote is around, no one will think of where they can reach it, and they will ignore it.

Yang Eighteen, with a complicated expression, chewed on the bitter young leaves of the vine grass, and followed Da Liu to move quickly in the wilderness; Da Liu's light footsteps shuttled in the dark, which made him even more admired.

How did he know that Da Liu, who was already a third-level sergeant, was the same as other guards of the same rank, and his visual ability at night was much brighter than that of ordinary people, and he could see the ditch under his feet quite clearly within twenty steps, but he couldn't do it if he was far away.

However, now Da Liu's heart is also very surprised, the stingers grown by these vine grasses this year are not only longer and denser, but the toxicity is also ruthless; Wang Ziliang's warning before his departure, looking at it along the way, should not be wrong.

Over the mountains and ravines, more than 80 miles to the southeast, the two of them huddled under a dwarf pine tree, looking at the trouser legs that were torn into rags on their legs, looking at each other speechlessly, and the earthy yellow protective clothing leaked out.

After an hour's rest, the sky gradually darkens, and a faint mist fills the top of the vines, which is dispersed by the rising mountain breeze after a while.

"Let's go, on the left side of the mountain, there is a foothold of spies, go and touch them first," Da Liu packed his backpack and walked into the rattan grass first, here every step must be careful, in case you fall into the pit, you will be buried by the rattan grass.

With protective clothing on their bodies, as long as the depth of the rattan grass does not exceed the shoulder, and act carefully, they will open the way with the rattan grass, and there will be no big problem, but they are afraid that the cracks in the hands, feet, and neck will be pierced by stingers.

"Spies? Which spy? Yang Eighteen asked puzzledly, but Da Liu's gloomy gaze made him swallow the question into his stomach, yes, as long as it is a spy, it is definitely a person who is not good for the big leader, and he deserves to be destroyed.

Now that you have taken refuge in the big boss, don't talk nonsense, this is not the mainland, and if you can survive, you must have the value of selling your life.

After walking around for half an hour, Da Liu, who was squatting in the gap between the vines and grasses, took out the binoculars and checked them for a while in the north, then called Yang Eighteen and handed him the binoculars, "It's here, clean up the top,"

The telescope Yang 18 was forced to practice for two days, only to see him skillfully lifting, shaking left and right, and soon found his target on the hill in front of him.

The two figures hiding behind the boulders on the hill looked behind them quite clearly.

The hill is less than thirty zhang high, and there is a mountain range to the west, where the terrain is higher and the field of vision is wider, but there are already three waves of spies missing, and these spies have become frightened birds, and the terrain is chosen for safety.

Handing the telescope back to Da Liu, Yang Shibai took off the backpack on his body, he liked this sturdy backpack very much, and there were two more earth-shattering thunderbolts he had brought with him.

took out a coarse cloth and covered his face, and put on an iron helmet covered with black cloth, Yang Shibai cleaned up neatly, grabbed the repeating crossbow, and lowered his waist into the gap between the vine and grass branches, and disappeared with a few clicks.

"This kid has a temper," Da Liu scolded lightly and shrank into the wild grass, without the slightest intention of giving Yang Eighteen support; There are only two spies above, if Yang Shibai does not do a good job, or even be counterattacked, then he deserves to be unlucky, and the guards' high salary is not something that anyone can take a bite of.

Yang Eighteen, who was alert and flexible, came back after a stick of incense, took off the face covering, his face was still as usual, and the slightest smell of blood on his body was gone, he found his backpack, turned out a new arrow box without raising his head, and replaced the crossbow with it. The seizure of a bag of clothes and wraps he brought back was also stuffed into his backpack, and Da Liu didn't even ask.

In addition to the spies' identity certificates, paperwork, etc., they must be handed in when they go back, and other weapons and silver coins are seized, and the guards can accept them, which he was told on the first day.

"Hehe, the kid is good, his hands and feet are quick enough," Da Liu, who was half-lying in the grass, raised his eyebrows, muttered in his mouth, and threw the kettle over casually, "Let's go, go to the next place,"

"In this kind of military affairs in the future, only one person from the guards will come out, and everything is careful," in a faint voice, Da Liu had already disappeared into the woods next to him; Looking at the back that quickly disappeared, Yang Shiba's frowning brows were relaxed, and he quickly followed with his backpack.

In the inconspicuous hill behind him, deep in the vine grass, there were two more warm corpses, which would soon be entangled in the vine grass to absorb nutrients and turn into a pile of dry bones.

The second place of strangulation was on a rocky beach with dense shrubs, which was also densely covered with vines and grasses as far as the eye could see; For this foothold, which is obviously a foothold for the hills ahead, the tent in the bushes is naturally Yang Shiba's goal.

There was a small pool under the rocky beach, and Da Liu and Yang Shibai watched from a distance for a while, only to see one person come out, and after hitting the water twice, they didn't see other figures.

The sun was rising, the time was not early, there were seven other places to rush over, and with the acquiescence of Da Liu, Yang Eighteen quickly sneaked over.

"Peng, Peng Peng," three muffled fires/gunshots rang out on the rocky beach a mile away, making Liu, who was sitting on the ground smoking dry tobacco, jump up, drop the cigarette pouch in his hand, and rush out in the blink of an eye.

This obvious fire/gunfire is something that Da Liu is extremely unwilling to hear, Yang Shibai touched it just now, and he didn't bring a firearm at all, and the sound of the box cannon firing was much more brittle than this fire/gunshot.

Hurried to the middle of the rocky beach, Da Liu saw that outside the tent, there was a figure who was busy packing his things, so he put down his mood, this time he took Yang Eighteen out, if he carried a corpse back, I am afraid that the big leader would not let him stay in the stone castle in peace.

In the open space outside the tent, three corpses lay lying on their backs, each with a short arrow pierced in their foreheads, but not much blood flowed; Only in the small tent, a strong smell of blood wafted out.

After meeting with Yang Shiba, Da Liu knew that the spies here were not the four people Wang Ziliang said, but six people, and maybe two more came last night; And these two extra people hid in the tent and caught Yang Shibai off guard, and he was shot in the stomach.

If it weren't for his dexterity, I'm afraid that the two shots that missed would have been endured.

Yang Eighteen, who was pale, looked at the uniform with his abdomen shattered, as well as the hole in the first layer of protective clothing, cold sweat broke out on his head, what is called high return and high risk, he can be regarded as a real understanding.

For this accident, Da Liu has nothing to say, as long as Yang Shibai realizes this lesson, he will not come in vain, the wear and tear of uniforms and protective clothing, just go back and trade in the old for the new.

After collecting the seizure, throwing the corpse into the tent and lighting the fire, Da Liu left with Yang Eighteen, and they still had seven remote places to rush over.

The spies didn't have much money on them, but a large bag of weapons was seized, and they were taken back and sold to Wang Gui, and they could also be exchanged for a few copper coins, and Yang Eighteen collected them all without landing at all. Dry food and water bags, they also picked and took them away.

Yang Shibai, whose face had not eased up, walked very steadily with his backpack, and after thinking about the two harvests, he seemed to have opened up a lot, and his eyes were full of light.

Only in Da Liu's eyes, there was a little more solemnity, not only did these spies have good skills, but they also didn't have any identity certificates such as waist cards. The problem can only be reported to the big boss when I go back.

Although these spies are all dressed as ordinary military households, the thin-bottomed soap-colored official boots worn by some of them on their feet are enough to explain their identities.

Shiguantun, a large number of displaced people gathered here, but the three slow transport vehicles, but can not take so many people to Madao Shibao, the displaced people can only wait outside the porridge shed at the foot of the stone mountain, relying on two bowls of gruel every day to survive.

To say that it is still a businessman's brain, although Tian Guanglin has Xiao Ye's promise that he can exchange the grain for goods on credit to the homeless, but he is not stupid, once Xiao Ye is dissatisfied, then the next transaction will not be so close.

The assault vehicle that had been transported back to Gansu Town had caused quite a stir in the town, and the assault vehicle parked outside the Tianjia shop could surround the crowd every day, which also made the business of the shop a few percent better.

Naturally, the Huang family and the Wang family are not lagging behind, and the three old-fashioned cars have caused the city to be full of wind and rain. If it weren't for the scarcity of black batteries that drive the car, and the many shortcomings, I'm afraid that even the newly appointed overseer would have a hot eye.

After all, compared with mules and horses, not to mention the slow speed, the need to change the battery frequently, and the short itinerary of the assault vehicle, it still looks very chicken, but it is also a rare good object.

At least the young masters and ladies of various families appreciate the assault car without the pain of bumps, and as for how much it costs, people can't see it at all.

For a time, there was an endless stream of landlords who ordered from large merchants, and the sales prospects of the assault car were quite impressive.

On this day, a notice was posted outside the Tianjia porridge shed, and some guards shouted loudly to the homeless people that they could exchange rattan grass fruits for dough cakes, two catties for one catty; This time, however, the hungry homeless people were completely excited.

There is also Tian Jiawei loudly announced that the young leaves and shoots of rattan grass can detoxify, although the effect is not very good, but it is faster than picking it and boiling it into soup.

There are a lot of fruits in the vine grass around me, although I have picked and bitten them, and I know that I can't fill my stomach to eat, but now I can use them to change the dough cake, and two bowls of gruel a day are enough.

When the homeless people tentatively picked the vine grass fruit and changed it to the hot dough cake, thousands of homeless people were even more confused, regardless of men, women and children, people spread out in all directions, chewing the young leaves of the vine grass in their mouths, and the group of three people and five people started to act with wooden sticks and cloth bags.

The black rattan grass pits are naturally valuable, but the pits of other colors are also being purchased by the Shijia shops, even if the merchants can't use them, they can also earn the difference, and they can't lose money inside and out.

And at this time, Wang Gui is no longer a matter of seeing people, and the homeless people who want to go to Madao Stone Fort not only have families, but also have young and young children first, and others can only stay here first, no matter how good Xiao Ye's heart is, there is no bottom line.

Yushan's transport fleet is mainly responsible for pulling goods, and it is already the limit to be able to pull back thirty or fifty displaced people every day.

The homeless people have heard the news that the vine grass fruit can be exchanged for copper coins, but once it becomes a fact, there will be more and more homeless people who want to gather here.

Of course, the price of grain under Shiguan Tunshan is also rising at a rapid rate, and merchants will not let go of the opportunity to make money.

It was also at this time that Zhang Zichang, who was in the Tunbao on the Tun Mountain in Shiguan, received a document from the Thousand Households of the Gravel Fort, allowing him to select the homeless people from among the homeless people and join the military households until there were 100 households; This kind of punishment in the eyes of the mainlanders has become a way for the displaced people to live.

Xiao Ye, who received Zhang Zichang's news, naturally did not take away the kindness of the Gravel Castle and gave Shiguantun an extra fee, which was no more than a pocket watch a year, and the food did not need to be paid by him.

Three days later, Yang 18 and Da Liu returned to Madao Stone Fort, at this time, Yang 18 exuded a faint evil aura all over his body, and the backpack on his shoulder was full of all kinds of messy seizures.

Da Liu's slightly tired face didn't see much abnormality, but in his arms, he was carrying two pieces of Tian Jiawei's waist cards, and he was going to hand them over to Wang Ziliang when he went back.

At this time, Xiao Ye had already left the Madao Stone Fort with the guards, and the stone fort in Gujiabao had been built until now, and he had to go over to congratulate Gu Yanwu; The construction of the inner fort of Gujiabao indicates that another foothold is standing on the grassland.

The most important thing is that the ore from Bailong Lake, as well as the phosphorite ore, can be shortened and processed on the spot, which is no less than another guarantee for Xiao Ye, who continues to use various ores.
