Sending away the ambitious Qiao Gunai, the horse team led by Xu Ziwei was late, leaving himself and the guards to pack their horses, Yang Meng pointed his hand, and Xu Ziwei, who was full of dust, took the horse team to Mengla again!

Yang Meng also asked Qiao Gunai, the expedition team that crossed the border did not come from Kachin, so Yang Meng could generally figure out the origin of this expedition, from Meisai!

The camp of this expedition, the mountain monkeys to which Yang Meng and Yang Ba belonged, also went to explore, but there were dozens of people surveying the surrounding terrain inside, but the team of three or four hundred people, except for these dozens of people, the others were all professional soldiers, although half of them were wearing civilian clothes, but their demeanor was definitely soldiers who had been trained and participated in actual combat.

Their weapons, Yang Meng also saw clearly, rifled fire. Guns, an army of more than 300 people, it is not a problem to fight one or two thousand green battalion soldiers, and their camp is also very interesting, a typical wooden barracks, plus a few small cannons, this group of people is clearly here to test the reaction of the Qing Dynasty.

"How long have they been there?"

Back in Tengyue Town, Yang Meng found Ma Qinghu and Du Jianhu, and the first thing he asked was the stationing time of this group of people.

"It's been about a month!"

Du Jianhu, who had half a broken tongue and was a little slurred, was the chief official of Tengyue Town, and Yang Meng's question was answered by him.

"Have you scouted? Did they find out? ”

"We've scouted, and they've seen it up close, and they've seen us too, but they've been there!"

"Hmmm......"

This group of English people. However, he was extremely familiar with the structure of the Qing army. More than a month. It's rooted in that place, and this is definitely trying to test the attitude of the imperial court.

"Ma Qinghu, the third master has built a blue flag army near Mengla, there are about 10,000 people, in the past few days, you hand over and go to Mengla to lead the troops!"

"Xie Sanye is promoted, I will hand it over!"

Ma Qinghu thanked him with a happy face. And Du Jianhu's face was a little pale, Ma Qinghu was just a new Ding, and there were more than 10,000 horses in this outing, but he, an old man, had become a guard with a bunch of miscellaneous cards, and he regretted not being at the beginning!

"Let's go down!"

Yang Meng's hand waved slightly, and the two retreated, seeing that Yang Meng was so stimulating Du Jianhu, Ding Baojun also opened his mouth.

"Third master, this is for the Du family brothers. Isn't it a bit ......?"

The Three Tigers of the Du family are definitely good generals with troops. Du Fuhu followed Yang Meng to Yongchang, and Du Baohu is also a good man with a tough foundation, so it's a pity to be so wasted.

"Look at the reaction of this Du Jianhu, if there is a complaint, he Du Clan Three Tigers will live to the end, if they do things conscientiously, they will have their own day of emergence after a while!

Don't talk about this, an anti-bone boy has ruined the future of the family, there is nothing to say, there are so many people in Yunnan, not bad for these three!

Uncle Ding, hand over your men to me, I'm going to do it! ”

Isn't the expedition that crossed the border to be tempted? Then give them an attitude and see that they have to try the bottom of the English themselves.

"Are you all slaughtered?"

"All slaughtered? It's so bloody, get off their guns, just let them get out! ”

Yang Meng's words are a bit, which of the Yang family has killed the most people several times, it is none other than him Yang Laosan, this is a killing talent, bloody? , right?

"You are the master, you arrange it yourself! My 800 people are brought to you, you can do whatever you want! ”

Seeing that Yang Meng didn't say the details, Ding Baojun didn't ask, the burden on his shoulders was not light, the supplies on Mengla's side, the Lisu people in Kachin and Shan States were all his business, and he handed over the eight hundred elite soldiers to Yang Meng, and Ding Baojun was also ready to return to Dali.

"Hmm!"

In response, Ding Baojun was sent away, and Yang Meng began to study the camp of the expedition team in England again, this place was very tricky to choose, and it was extremely difficult to take this camp quietly.

For the understanding of the terrain, the British army that fought all the year round was not weak at all, and the camp was set up in a small valley, water and food could be replenished on the spot, the fence at the mouth of the valley was the first line of defense, and the camp in the valley was the second line of defense.

Although this realm is easy to surround, it can be defended! With the 1,500 people of Meisai echoing from afar, it is really difficult to attack this place with the imperial court.

"Yang Ba, don't use knives and guns, are you sure that you will capture these hundreds of people alive?"

Now is also the time to test the ability of the mountain monkeys, two hundred mountain monkeys, plus eight hundred elite soldiers, it is enough to deal with these three or four hundred people, but it is a little difficult to capture them alive.

"Yes!"

Yang Ba knew that the third master was taking the school himself, and without hesitation at all, he gave an affirmative answer.

"How? It's better not to die! ”

Tengyue's side is different from Mengla, Mengla's are traitors, Tengyue's here are ordinary people, if you kill the foreign devils, this excuse will be difficult to find.

"Put some aconitum in their water and make sure they lie in the camp and can't move!

The water in the valley is living water, although the toxicity of aconitum is great, it is scattered into the stream, it is not so toxic, and those foreign devils drink hot water, the medicinal properties will be much lower, and the medicine should not kill people! ”

The Lisu people are good at using poisonous arrows, and this aconitum is the poison on the arrow, which Yang Meng is clear, but he didn't expect that this aconitum can be used as a medicine for Menghan.

"Hmmm! Take your people and do it tonight! Be smart and try not to kill anyone! ”

Three or four hundred people, Yang Meng doesn't care much, if someone dies, they will all be slaughtered, look for it, I'm afraid they won't be able to find the corpses of these people even if they go over the mountain.

The war is imminent, Yang Meng is not idle, he stays in Tengyue's county government to practice knives and guns, these livelihoods are things that cannot be left in his hands, once he is unfamiliar, it will be difficult to save his life at that time.

Yang Meng's thirty guards, in addition to being bodyguards, are also sparring partners, Yang Meng has nothing to do to practice this, it is also a helpless move, in such an era, there is a lack of entertainment projects. In addition to playing with women. It's a church meeting. Yang Meng is not very interested in opera, and this woman can't stand it anymore, so she can only practice herself in her spare time.

From western Sichuan to Tengyue, in more than half a year, Yang Meng's knife skills, which he was not good at, have also made great progress.

Yang Meng is now practicing a secret knife technique of the Bagua Sect. Eighteen section knife, this is from the eldest uncle Sun Shun in exchange for the knife method, this knife method is fierce, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a knife to death.

Practicing boxing and swords is a chore, and it is only a preliminary stage; Practice to the bones, it is considered an intermediate stage; Your instinctive reaction to and from my body is considered an advanced stage; Seeing a move, the body can prepare a few moves and a dozen moves according to instinct. That's the best at the best.

It's just these things, tricks of actual combat. Count and count, it's just a few strokes, practice to the basics, this is kung fu.

Yang Meng's boxing method is considered an advanced stage of boxing, in terms of lethality, almost no one in the Yang family is an opponent, two or three moves are fatal, it is Yang Meng's ability.

As for the knife technique, Yang Meng can touch the threshold of the intermediate level, which still has the foundation of fists and feet, otherwise he would not be able to practice such skills without ten or eight years of hard training.

This actual combat knife method is also a rare thing, the knife method is not called the knife method that can kill people, this knife method is a set of coherent actions, a knife out of the way, the next tricks are the back hand, the actual combat knife method is based on the opponent's reaction, the research of killing skills, to put it bluntly, a set of actual combat knife method is baked, not by the brain to come up, but to kill people.

In the second half of the night, after practicing the knife, he had exhausted his excess energy, and Yang Meng fell asleep, and the next morning, Yang Ba brought him good news, the three hundred and ninety-four people of the Raushzi expedition were all captured alive.

"Not bad! Prepare your dry food pack! I'll let go of this group of people, you take 50 people and a batch of carrier pigeons, follow these people, see if they have any intersection with the power of Burma, and then see where they have settled?

I guess that this group of people came from Maese, and that they would probably go back if they were in trouble here, and that another thirty men with carrier pigeons were waiting for them on the route of Maese.

Big things are rewarded, small things don't have to be, our carrier pigeons, can't let them find out. ”

Following this departing expedition, Yang Meng's main purpose was to see if Burmese had the strength to get close to the British, and if so, the mountain monkeys would have work to do in the future.

"Zhilu said! I'll arrange it right away! ”

"Just arrange your subordinates and take me to see this expedition that sells dog meat on the head of a sheep."

This expedition team in England is definitely captive tiger whiskers, stationed in a place close to the border, and it is difficult for them to find the documents for the demarcation of the border, this location is extremely delicate!

From Tengyue County Ya to the camp where this group of people are stationed, it is only half an hour's footsteps, and these calves are unlucky to meet themselves.

Five hundred fires. Guns, two hundred short . Guns, six small copper cannons, hundreds of swords, this group of calves is completely an army!

"We are a scientific expedition, and we are in Myanmar, you have no right to detain us, and you are doing this to cause international disputes."

……

Okay! This group of calves is fully prepared, and several translators are also in Chinese, without adequate preparation, Yang Meng does not believe that the translator who can speak Yi can be found casually.

Three hundred and ninety-four people, all tied up by wet hemp ropes, this is the handiwork of the Lisu hunters, even if they break their arms and legs, they also break the ropes on their bodies, Yang Meng ignored their shouts and continued to look at the seized materials.

Equipment is what Yang Meng cares about the most, leather armed belts, bayonets, these are no problem, but the wooden kettle is a little small, marching in the rainforest, such a kettle, obviously not enough, these people can walk here safely, this sign is not very good!

"Go and ask how many of them were when they came?"

The entire expedition, there were still 394 people, and when it was not easy to come, it was a team of 400 people, almost one battalion of men and horses, and only six people died along the way, which means that this battalion of British troops definitely has experience in rainforest operations.

"Third master, when they came, there were four hundred people."

Sure enough! When encountering hard stubble, this group of people should be the garrison of Yangon, otherwise they would not be so familiar with the rainforest, relying on such a small kettle, they can march in the rainforest, and this battalion of men and horses can be regarded as elite soldiers.

The camp tent or something, there is no value in checking, Yang Meng walked into the main tent of the camp, and the map of the Southeast Peninsula on the table was much more accurate than the one in Yang Meng's hand.

"Dog's day's thing, it's really not good, the target is really Mengla!"

Whether the map in the southeast is good or not, it is still secondary, the most important thing is several key locations, Meisai and Mengla belong to such key points, occupying these places, that is, occupying the initiative.

The map depicts the situation of the enemy and me, as well as the retreat of this so-called expedition group, pointing directly at Meisai, these people just want to let the Qing Dynasty's soldiers and horses hoard to the Tengyue line, and then they can take the opportunity to occupy Mengla.

I flipped through the things in the main tent, and the draft map of the Tengyue area was also in it, as well as a few supply maps from Meisai to Tengyue, and the place marked on the map should be the boundary with clean water sources.

Looking carefully at the map on the table, Yang Meng also found the scheming of these people, the map of the southeast peninsula is accurate, and the map further north is only an approximation, but the word Kunming appears in the map, which is not a good thing.

Picked up the map and looked at it carefully, from Mengla to the vicinity of Kunming, there were a few shallow scratches.

"Hey...... Sure enough, I'm looking for Lao Tzu! (To be continued......)
