Chapter 33: Small Fortune

When Weihaiwei's family members and military households were busy fighting for heads and looting the belongings on the corpses, Chen Xin had already led the team to set off to the bandits' nest, and in the battle just now, one person was killed and five were wounded, leaving four firefighters to take care of them, and the others rushed to the top of the Jade Emperor together.

Tongtian Liang was tied up with five flowers, walking in the middle, and a cronie who was injured lightly was escorted to the front to lead the way. Because the bandits almost poured out, the main force has been defeated, and some of the remaining guards are old and weak, from the first rout soldiers to learn that the big cabinet has lost the battle, dropped the weapon has run away, the team is unstoppable, all the way forward, over the mountains and mountains, the results of the physical training on weekdays are reflected at this time, there are bandits who escape slowly along the way, after seeing the official army into the mountains and forests on both sides, Chen Xin sent people not to chase.

When Chen Xin's brigade walked outside the wall, they were surprised to find that the door was wide open, but the wall was empty, and there were some jewelry and broken silver scattered at the door, and there was a faint sound of a woman crying inside.

A bandit grinned and turned from behind the gate of the village, carrying a bag full of silver in his arms, and when he looked up and saw the officers and soldiers of the brigade in front of him, he was stupid, he didn't expect the officers and soldiers to come so quickly. With a wave of Chen's new hand, Lu Chuanzong led a team of killers to rush over, and the bandit ran back, and the silver fell to the ground behind him, shouting "The dog officer army is here!" ”。

Inside, there was a burst of chickens and dogs, crying and screaming, and three teams of soldiers entered in turn, leaving a team of killers and firearms to guard the gate to prevent other bandits from returning to the village.

The remnants of the bandits in the village did not have the slightest fighting spirit, some flexibly climbed over the wall of the wall, and ran into the woods, Chen Xin did not chase after him, and some of the people who did not run away were killed, most of them knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, and they were soon concentrated in the open space in the center of the cottage, and squatted more than 20 people. There were also more than a dozen disheveled young women, presumably robbed and made them squat in the southwest corner.

Chen Xin directly entered the lobby of Tongtianliang, and escorted the three people of Tongtianliang in, and the three big characters of Juyi Hall were written on the lobby, "The Water Margin is not shallow." Chen Xin shook his head and smiled, and said to Nie Hong and Hai Gouzi: "Take his two subordinates to another house and ask where the silver of Tongtianliang is." ”

After that, he sat on the right seat, and a bearskin was placed on the big chair, and it was soft and warm to sit on, and he said to Zhang Dahui: "You go outside and ask those who surrendered, who can tell where the dirty silver of Tongtianliang is, and spare whoever will not die, and reward him with a hundred taels of silver." If there's no one left, you can draw a few out and kill them. Zhang Dahui quickly agreed, turned around and went out.

Tongtian Liang, who was kneeling on the ground, saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly said: "This adult, I know, I said it myself, begging the adult to spare the villain's life, and from then on, I saw the adult immediately bypass it." ”

Chen Xin shook his head with a smile: "Tongtianliang, there are a lot of things that I am willing to say here, why let you, the bandit leader, flee for your life." ”

"Big, adult, the villain hasn't done anything lacking in virtue, but he only killed a few people a little last year, and the villain's mind is also asking for a trick, and the adult spares his life......"

"It turns out that Master Tong is asking for a Zhao'an, no wonder he hangs a sign of the Juyi Hall, and he still wants to learn from Song Jiang, don't you know that Song Jiang changed the Juyi Hall to Zhongyi Hall? Read more books in the future, don't make a mistake and make others laugh at you are uneducated, and there is no good end after Song Jiang recruits An, why bother to come. ”

Tongtian Liang saw that Chen Xin didn't have a serious word, how could he get out, and he burst into tears in a panic, don't look at these bandits who are cruel to the people, it's their turn, they are very timid.

Chen Xin saw that he had become like this, so he smiled and said: "Since Master Tong has repentance, I feel compassion, if Master Tong can give something that others don't know, maybe there is a way to live." ”

As soon as Tongtian Liang heard the spirit, his body straightened up, and he couldn't wait to say: "Can adults speak seriously?" ”

Chen Xin's face changed, and he got up and was about to walk out, "Don't forget if Lord Tong doesn't believe it, Commander Yang will be the envoy, you must believe what he said." ”

Tongtian Liang naturally knew that he had robbed Yang Yunnong's things, and he would never let himself go, he had no choice, and hurriedly kowtowed: "The adults stay behind, and the villain will say, the villain's silver is in the treasury behind the lobby, and these other people know it, but the most valuable good things that were robbed, only the villain knows where it is." ”

He looked up at Chen Xin, saw Chen Xin looking at him expressionlessly, gritted his teeth and continued: "There are two packs, one is on the beam of the villain's bedroom, and the other is buried under the bed. ”

"Anything else?"

"No, that's really all."

Chen Xin's face was still calm, and at this time, Nie Hong and Zhang Dahui both came back and quietly told Chen Xin about the results of the inquiry, and the silver treasury and Tongtianliang said the same, and sure enough, there were no two places that Tongtianliang said. Chen Xin left Zhou Shifa to guard Tongtianliang, and asked Lu Chuanzong to take a team of people to the silver vault, and he took Nie Hong and Zhang Dahui, and escorted a cronie to Tongtianliang's bedroom, Nie Hong overturned Tongtianliang's big bed twice, there was indeed a piece of soil on the ground with a different color, and he was about to dig with a knife, Chen Xin said: "Don't poke it." ”

Nie Hong had no choice but to put away the knife and dig it up with his hands, while Zhang Dahui climbed up the beam along the pillar, and the cronie who was tied up on the ground said flatteringly: "Be careful, don't fall." ”

Chen Xin squatted down and smiled at the cronie: "If you know the place of other stolen goods, let you go now, and give you two percent of the silver." ”

The cronie shook his head and said: "My lord, it's really gone, the villains don't know about the two places here, it's only been two years since I followed the big cabinet here, the villain has never done evil, every time the big cabinet kills someone, the villain has to dissuade him, but it's a pity that he always doesn't listen to the villain." ”

"Oh, that's useless." Chen Xin smiled, stood up, and slowly pulled out the knife he was carrying.

The cronie looked stunned, how could this adult suddenly remember to kill himself, "Adult, adult, spare your life, villain, villain, ah! Without the slightest hesitation, the knife stabbed straight into his heart, and the cronie was stabbed directly into the heart by the knife, and immediately lost his breath, Chen Xin coldly took out the knife, wiped the blade on the corpse, and put the knife into the sheath. Zhang Dahui above and Nie Hong on the ground looked back, did not speak, and continued to look for stolen goods.

Chen Xin put down his hands and hid them in his sleeves, not letting the two of them see that his hands were trembling slightly, he looked down at the bandit on the ground with his mouth wide open, this person was killed by himself, but there was no special feeling, this bandit saw them take the stolen goods, he definitely couldn't keep it, but he didn't necessarily need to do it, he did it himself to try the feeling of killing people with cold weapons, he had been behind in today's battle, and he didn't fight in person.

"Why don't you feel like vomiting?" Chen Xin secretly wondered in his heart, maybe he had seen a lot of killings on the sea ship and just now, but he was only slightly nervous after killing people with a knife.

"My lord, there's something." Nie Hong and Zhang Dahui reported successively that Zhang Dahui took a package from the beam of the house, opened it and opened it full of women's gold and silver jewelry, and the others were either Dongzhu or various colored gemstones, which should be worth a lot of money, and the package that Nie Hong dug up in the ground was even bigger, in addition to some jewelry, there were many gold ingots.

Chen Xin casually picked up two small gold ingots, one tael of gold in the Ming Dynasty could be exchanged for seven or eight taels of silver, and he couldn't help laughing: "Conference, this thing is more convenient than silver." ”

Zhang Dahui made a joke: "Yes, in the future, you will be able to pay New Year's greetings to Shangguan less." ”

Nie Hong's eyes lit up when he looked at the treasure in the place, but Chen Xin was here, and he didn't dare to take it if he was given ten dares. He reluctantly retracted his gaze and asked Chen Xindao: "My lord, what about Tongtianliang?" ”

"Killed, took the head and went back to the errand."

"Okay, let the subordinates do it, the bandits' blood is dirty, don't stain the hands of adults."

At this time, Lu Chuanzong also came over and said that there were probably more than 3,000 taels of silver in the silver treasury, plus nearly 4,000 from the prisoners and corpses. It's good that it came early, otherwise it would have been robbed by the bandits who returned to the village.

Chen Xin's eyes flashed, "The captives have been killed, those women are ......" Those bandits are bloody with both hands, and it is difficult to reform, he has no intention of recruiting them, but those women are all victims who have been robbed, and killing them may have a bad impact on these soldiers.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Xin picked up a gold ingot casually, and said while playing with it in his hand, "The captives are all killed, the silver is left in the silver treasury, and the rest are packed, and the logistics team will carry it. After going down the mountain, go back to Mazidun directly from the west of Foding Mountain, don't let those women escape, take them back first. The things in this house are not allowed to be leaked, and if I know that someone is talking, it will be treated as a leak of confidentiality. ”

Several people have received orders, they are all ruthless people, and there is no psychological burden.

"The assembly packed up all the things in the house, and if there was anything missing, it would be dealt with according to military law. When the three of you go back, you will come to my place to receive a separate reward, and you are also not allowed to make a public announcement. ”

Nie Hong and Zhang Dahui were overjoyed when they heard this, hurriedly pulled the sheets, put all the things on the ground into it, and after several people put it away, they went out together and handed over the package to the logistics team. Carrying the head of the beam to the clearing.

Chen Xin transferred out the two teams of soldiers who started in the back row, and ordered them to unfold, the bandits squatting on the ground were already panicked, and looked at the officers and soldiers around them with sharp weapons worriedly.

Chen Xin shouted in the field: "The second and fourth squads of the killer team, the logistics team obeyed the order, Tongtian Liang ambushed and punished, the remaining bandits helped to abuse, there are countless blood debts, none of them are good, all of them will be executed!" ”

More than 20 bandits heard this, immediately blew up the nest, they all tied their hands, jumped up and scattered and fled, the two teams of killers rushed over to kill chickens and sheep to slaughter, and the logistics team held knives and sticks to beat the fish that slipped through the net, these two killer teams were in the back row, did not directly face to face with the enemy, Chen Xin specially let them do it, in order to be more suitable for blood, the logistics team can be regarded as experienced, battlefield experience is very valuable, Chen Xin plans to turn them into soldiers step by step.

After a while, all the bandits were ambushed, the ground was full of corpses, blood was everywhere, and the women on the other side were so frightened that they cried one after another, Chen Xin then ordered Dai Zhenggang to lead two killer teams and logistics teams to escort the women down the mountain from the other road, and the silver and those jewels were also carried away.

The remaining two killer teams and a firearms team searched the stockade again, and found no more slips, so Chen Xin transferred them out of the stockade, and then took his own soldiers to pack some scattered silver from the silver treasury and scattered it everywhere, and also scattered some among the corpses, making a scene after robbery.
