Shangjing Chapter 8 Plan Volume: Suppressing Bandits (I)
After a while, Chen Chong came over with the steward.
"Little Hou Ye, the thieves have been caught." Chen Chong said.
"Okay, bring it tomorrow, and then hand it over to the government when you are in the city."
"There is something I want to ask for the little marquis." The steward said cautiously.
"Tell me about it!"
"There is a cave near here, most of the thieves are there, and they often rob people who pass by, we have limited ability, we can only protect ourselves, can we ask the little marquis to help us kill there, then we will be much safer." The steward just saw that Chen Chong and them were skilled, so he had this idea.
"Marquis Li, why don't you ...... Practice first? Lin Qingran also wanted to know their strength.
"It's just a few little bandits, I'll do it!" The team hasn't played in a long time, so you can try it first.
"Thank you, little marquis! I'll tell you about it! The steward said happily.
"Let's go down!"
"Chen Chong, you pick some people and go with me tomorrow to suppress those bandits!" Li Mingyuan said.
"Little Hou Ye, in fact, Wang Li and I can go to this matter!" Chen Chong said.
"It's okay, I haven't practiced for a long time!" I haven't fought for a long time, and Li Mingyuan also wants to move his muscles and bones.
"I'm going too!" Lin Qingran said: "I came up with this idea, take me one!" In fact, she wanted to see how powerful this Li Mingyuan was in the war.
"What are you messing with! Stay here! Li Mingyuan didn't want to take her.
The next day, Li Mingyuan gathered more than 30 people, and saw that they were all wearing armor, wearing sharp swords around their waists, and riding war horses in full armor, with heroic postures. Lin Qingran had never seen the combat team so closely, and he was surprised for a long time.
Li Mingyuan looked at her rare and strange expression, and suddenly felt a little proud.
"Lead the way, let's go and go back!"
The steward and a few small soldiers who walked in front of the team led Li Mingyuan and his party out of the city and went straight to the bandits' cave.
"Hey, you! What do you say you are not doing well, why do you want to be a thief! Lin Qingran came to see the thieves caught yesterday, because he wanted to ask them if they knew about the King of the Mountain, after all, they were also peers.
"Humph!" These thieves saw that she was a woman and did not want to pay attention to her.
"What are you humming, tell you, be honest, we've already brought people to destroy your lair!" Lin Qingran knew that these thieves looked down on her.
"There are more than 60 of us, how can we be afraid of you!" The thief said.
There are so many people, so Li Mingyuan only brought more than 30 people, it doesn't matter. Oops, what do I care about him! Lin Qingran was a little worried about him, what was wrong with her.
"Hey, do you know anything about the King of the Mountain?" Lin Qingran continued to ask.
"I don't know!" The thief said viciously.
Forget it, it is estimated that they don't know, Lin Qingran knows that no matter how much he asks, he can't ask why.
Does it matter if he wants to? Can you win? Will it hurt? All the way back to the room, Lin Qingran thought to himself.
"What's wrong with you?" Shang Jing looked at her and asked.
"It's nothing, by the way, are you hungry, let's go eat something!" Lin Qingran didn't want to think about it anymore.
"Okay!"
The people of the city were very happy to know that someone had helped them to kill the bandits, so they prepared some food and brought it over. "Thank you so much! There's something to eat, so eat first! Some of the people brought them food.
Lin Qingran watched Liu take the food for them, and then said, "Li Mingyuan, they are only 30 people, can they win?" ”
"You woman, the full name of the little marquis is what you can call indiscriminately!" Liu Wei has always disliked Lin Qingran very much.
"I'll just ask!"
"Don't worry about it here! Don't say 60 people, even 100 people, the little marquis can be wiped out! Who is the little marquis, one person overturned the whole team on the battlefield back then! "Liu Wei must know that the little marquis is very powerful.
"Why don't I just ask, do you have anything to eat?" Lin Qingran also felt that he was thinking too much.
"Get it yourself!" Liu Wei didn't want to serve her.
Shang Jing saw that Lin Qingran cared about Li Mingyuan so much, and he didn't know why, he was a little sad.
This battlefield Xiaodingbei Hou really didn't blow it, it only took half a day to annihilate more than 30 people, capture 10 people, and take down this group of bandits in one fell swoop.
"Little Hou Ye, the bandit said that there are more than 60 of them, but there are only more than 40 people in this cave now." Chen Chong said.
"There should be some people who have gone out, and you send people to guard here and wait for them to come back." Li Mingyuan still wants to clean up all of them and leave no hidden dangers.
"Thank you so much!!" The steward said excitedly.
"It's nothing, bring these people back and interrogate them properly!" Li Mingyuan said.
At the same time, a lot of supplies were seized in the cave, and he asked his men to bring them back.
Seeing Li Mingyuan and them come back safely, Lin Qingran was a little happy for some reason.
"You didn't run, I thought you did." Li Mingyuan returned to the city and dismounted, ready to take off his equipment.
"Even if I run, I have to eat before I run!" Sure enough, it's still so annoying, I still worry about him, whether he was kicked in the head by a donkey.
In the evening, Chen Chong also came back with the rest of the people, and the people in the city prepared a rich dinner for them, and the soldiers also ate happily, solving the problems here, and they were ready to leave tomorrow.
On the other two days, along the way to another city, the team met some ordinary people who were dragging their families with them, and after asking them, they learned that there was a drought this year, there was little rain, the crops in the fields did not grow, and there were many bandits, so they had to leave their homes to find a safe place.
The world is not good, bandits are rampant, and it is the common people who suffer, maybe it is the same in every dynasty, Lin Qingran looked at these people and thought to himself.
When the team was stationed to rest in the evening, Shang Jing saw that she was depressed for the past two days, so she wanted to find some happy topics. "Is Gangnam pretty? Is there anything good to eat? ”
"Jiangnan, that's beautiful, the small bridge and flowing water, and the little song to listen to. My favorite thing to eat is plum blossom cake, which is shaped like plum blossoms, sweet but not greasy, but delicious! As she spoke, she thought of her father, who used to buy food for her in the past, and she felt sad when she thought of it, and her eyes moistened.
Shang Jing originally wanted to make her happy, but she was even more sad, "I, did I say something wrong?" ”
"No, I just think of my father. He was very strict with me, forcing me to study every day, my mother was not in good health, and I couldn't have children after giving birth, so my father has always been very demanding of me. Lin Qingran continued.
"yes, that's good, my mother...... In fact, I was a commercial prostitute, so I didn't have a father when I was born. I grew up in the caravan, and in order to stay in the caravan, I learned to read and write in addition to carrying things, and as long as I made enough money, I could take my mother away. Shang Jing said.
Lin Qingran looked at him, with such a pair of pure and bright eyes, Shangjing had such a background, and she was about to reach out to comfort him, when she heard Li Mingyuan's voice.
"What are you two little lovers doing, and you're talking about running away, right?" This man shouldn't be let go, Li Mingyuan thought to himself.
"Where can I go now, I can't go to the village in front of me, and I can't find a store in the back." Lin Qingran saw him coming over and said angrily.
"Come here, let's talk about going to the city tomorrow!" Li Mingyuan did come to find her, although he could send someone to call her.
As soon as I entered the tent, I saw that Li Mingyuan's five subordinates were all there, which was very rare, and there were only three of them when discussing things in normal times.
"We'll enter the city tomorrow, and beyond this city will be the mountain of the bandits, and we must now discuss how to take down these bandits next." Li Mingyuan said.
"I think it's over! Not only about 200 people. Li Hei said first.
"Do you have anything else to do but fight?" Li Mingyuan said.
"The terrain of this mountain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, little marquis, we have strong combat capabilities in the plains, but this mountain combat is not a strong point." Li Yao said.
"I'm scared when I see you!" Liu Wei has always looked down on the timid Li Yao.
"You! I went to the battlefield with the little marquis, when were you afraid! Li Yao also knew that Liu Wei had always liked to target him.
"Don't make any noise, listen to what the little marquis has to say." Chen Chong said.
"What Li Yao said is reasonable, this is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and I am afraid that a strong attack will cause some damage, so we have to outwit it." Li Mingyuan glanced at Lin Qingran.
Lin Qingran saw him looking at himself, thinking to himself, you see what I do, I can't hold back this scene. These big men, one is more fierce than the other, they passed by Li Hei last time, and they wanted to kill me with that look, so Lin Qingran had no choice but to look elsewhere.
Li Mingyuan knew that she didn't dare to say, "Let's lure the snake out of the hole, first lure their main force down and annihilate it with all our might, and then I will take Wang Li and Liu Wei up the mountain to clear the rest, Chen Chong, you and Li Hei and Li Yao will leave the aftermath." ”
"I'm not convinced, why is it me who is dealing with the aftermath again, I also want to go up the mountain!" Li Hei said.
"Really?" Li Mingyuan knew that Li Hei had a violent temper, he hadn't fought for a long time, and it was estimated that he was going to suffocate.
"Little Hou Ye! It's Wang Li and Liu Wei every time, and they didn't take me with them last time they went to suppress bandits! Li Hei said indignantly.
This Li Hei has to be sideways, and Li Mingyuan has nothing to do with him.
"In this way, we will wrestle our wrists, if you can win me, I will let you go up the mountain, otherwise you will obediently clean up the aftermath." Li Mingyuan: This is going to be powerful.
"Good! Little Hou Ye, you lost, don't say that you let me. Li Hei said confidently.
This Li Hei is the strongest of them, and Li Mingyuan is actually not sure of winning.
And they piled up several chests,
"What nonsense! Come on, come on! Li Mingyuan opened his position.
I saw that the two of them each stretched out a hand and held it tightly, "Chen Chong, you give the order." ”
"One, two, three, go!" Chen Chong shouted
I saw that the two sides had all their strength, gritted their teeth, and tried their best, just confronting each other. At this time, he heard Li Hei shouting and suddenly exerting force, his face turned red, and Li Mingyuan was obviously at a disadvantage. However, after only a while, the two sides returned to the state of confrontation in the middle, and at this time, Li Mingyuan took advantage of the fact that he was not paying attention, and suddenly broke Li Hei with force.
Lin Qingran thought to himself, this kid is quite powerful.
"I lost, I'll go to clean up the aftermath!" Li Hei was obviously unconvinced.
"You kid, suffocate it, tomorrow you and Li Yao will go up the mountain with me to suppress the bandits." Li Mingyuan's intention is also incomprehensible.
"Ahh Ahh Thank you, little marquis! Li Hei immediately became happy when he heard this sudden order.
"Little Hou Ye, why don't I stay in the aftermath!" Li Yao said.
"I don't think you dare to go up the mountain, Xiao Hou Ye or I'll go!" Liu Wei said.
"Li Yao, you have a flexible mind, when you get to the mountain, there is still a place where you can work." Li Mingyuan has his own plans. "Okay, that's it for today, you guys go down first!"
"Yes!" The crowd said.
