Chapter 186: Suppressing Bandits
got the news she wanted, Xie Shiyun didn't plan to stay here for a long time, who knows if there is anyone behind her who is monitoring her whereabouts, it's better to be secretive.
Ping Guiren did not stop him, "Be careful on the road." β
Seeing Xie Shiyun's back gradually getting smaller, Ping Guiren sighed, after staying here for so long, she learned some ways to see her fate from those masters, but she really can't see through this child's life.
After Xie Shiyun returned to the palace, she went directly to Xie Shuyi and told Xie Shuyi everything that the noble people told her, and after that, she returned to her bedroom.
She has already brought the news, as for Xie Shuyi's reaction, it is not within the scope of her thinking.
Along the way, Xie Shiyun was careless, completely thinking about what the noble man said, she didn't pay attention to what she would guess under her feet, she just walked along the road towards her bedroom in a daze.
Suddenly bumped into a person's arms, and before she could react to retreat, her waist was surrounded by a pair of strong hands, "So anxious to throw herself into her arms?" β
She raised her head, and Shen Sijun's slightly underbeaten face appeared in front of her, and she pushed him away, "Why are you here?" β
"I don't want to come either, but the emperor summoned me into the palace, what can I do," Shen Sijun shrugged his shoulders, his face full of helplessness.
Xie Shiyun frowned slightly, "What did the emperor call you into the palace for?" β
"You don't know?" Shen Sijun raised his eyebrows slightly, and then answered his own question again, "That's right, you have been investigating cheating cases, it's normal not to know, I was summoned to the palace by the emperor is actually because of the recent local bandits, burning, killing and looting are all evil, even women and children are not spared, and they have robbed a lot of villages and towns along the way, and the local county orders can't be done at all, so they all came to report and ask for reinforcements." β
"Then you're going to go to a place where bandits are raging to suppress bandits?" Xie Shiyun nodded clearly, pretending not to care at all on her face, but an inexplicable emotion rose in her heart.
"I can't say, it depends on what the emperor thinks, so many generals don't necessarily send me alone," Shen Sijun didn't want to go, but the emperor's order was difficult, if Emperor Anhe really let him go, he couldn't help it, "The emperor is still waiting for me, I'll leave first." β
Xie Shiyun looked at him fixedly, "Well, if you have any news there, you must tell me." β
Shen Sijun nodded, and then left.
About an hour later, Shen Sijun appeared in Xie Shiyun's bedroom.
"How's it going? Who did the father send to suppress the bandits? β
When Shen Sijun heard this, he touched his nose with a wry smile, looking at him like this, Xie Shiyun was stupid and didn't know what happened, "It's so miserable...... Did the father say when you will leave? β
She said this. , Shen Sijun smiled even more bitterly, "Let's go now, I can be here now, or take a little time out." β
Xie Shiyun's brows furrowed instantly, "Do you need to be in such a hurry?" β
"You don't know, Xie Yuan intervened in this matter, if it weren't for him, the candidate to suppress the bandits this time would not be me." There was a faint sadness between Shen Sijun's eyebrows.
"Xie Yuan? Why is he everywhere? Xie Shiyun was suddenly disgusted, "Xie Yuan will definitely not have anything good waiting for you if you let you go to suppress the bandits, he will definitely have bad intentions, you must be careful when you go." β
"Are you worried about me?" Shen Sijun smiled and stretched out his hand to smooth the wrinkles between her eyebrows, "Don't worry, it's just a Xie Yuan who can't help me." β
Xie Shiyun knocked his hand off.
Shen Sijun quickly ordered 10,000 elite soldiers on the road, and after more than 20 days of travel, Shen Sijun arrived at the first stop with his soldiers.
In order to avoid startling the snakes, Shen Sijun did not let those elite soldiers enter the city directly, but stopped a mile away from the city and asked them to stay there.
As for himself, he brought a few guards into the city to find out the information, and as soon as he entered the city, he first managed to contact the local officials.
"Lord Lin."
"Are you...... This time, you're here to help the officials of the encirclement, right? β
Lord Lin was around forty years old, and the whole person looked a little bloated, he looked at the person in front of him, and felt a little disdainful in his heart, don't tell him, the person in front of him who looked like he was only in his twenties, turned out to be the leader of this crackdown.
Shen Sijun naturally didn't know what he was thinking, so he nodded very straightforwardly.
Lord Lin pulled the corners of his mouth and smirked twice, and took him to sit down in the lobby, but he didn't ask anyone to make tea, which would be extremely impolite if it fell on someone else.
In this regard, Shen Sijun only frowned, but did not say anything.
"Lord Lin, I don't know where these bandits come from? So arrogant? β
Lord Lin touched his beard, which was no more than a finger long, with a depressed expression, and sighed and explained the origin of these bandits.
It turns out that these bandits are not ordinary bandits, but a remnant of the rebels of the previous dynasty.
The rebels of the previous dynasty were not cleaned up, these rebels who were not cleaned up fled to a mountain, set themselves up as kings on the mountain, recuperated, and were not discovered by the government, and now they suddenly appeared, apparently with the capital of confrontation with the locality.
Shen Sijun listened and frowned.
This is just a simple bandit, then there is nothing to be afraid of, but these bandits are the descendants of the soldiers, it is a bit difficult to deal with, no wonder these local officials can't control them.
"Then Lord Lin, do you know where these bandits are stronghold, and how many people there are?"
Master Lin continued to touch his beard and thought for a moment, "Their stronghold is in Anyang Mountain, which is three miles away from here, as for the number of people...... It's about six hundred. β
Shen Sijun nodded, and then asked him, "I don't know if Lord Lin has a map of Anyang Mountain?" β
"This ...... The official does not have a map of Anyang Mountain, but he knows the mountain features of Anyang Mountain. β
Shen Sijun immediately asked Lord Lin to describe the mountain appearance of Anyang Mountain, and finally led the elite soldiers stationed outside the city gate to Anyang Mountain.
Along the way to Anyang Mountain, they didn't encounter any traps or anything like that, and they didn't even see a bandit, Shen Sijun had doubts in his heart, but he still let the soldiers continue to move forward.
Anyang Mountain is not a mountain, but a small mountain range, and the elite soldiers have to go down the mountain after going up the mountain, just between the mountains and the mountains, and the situation is suddenly born.
I heard a sudden commotion all around, and dozens of bandits stood on a high place and surrounded them.
Shen Sijun immediately asked the elite soldiers to make an offensive posture, the other party was only 600 people at most, and they were 10,000 people, even if these bandits had the advantage of terrain, they would not be their opponents.
Shen Sijun was very confident in this, and directly determined the tactics of the sea of people.
But what happened next made him understand how naΓ―ve his idea was.
