"So many of you are all disgraced, and all of them are lost? I am afraid that there must be more than 10,000 women of you people combined, how could they all disappear overnight, could it be that they were eaten by monsters?" the official of the sheriff's office looked at the crowd of people in disbelief.

"This ...... Not only have we lost people, but all our belongings have been emptied, and we hope that your department will send people to investigate and pursue them as soon as possible to recover the losses for us victims. Zhao Rong said.

"Lord Zhao, I heard that there are hundreds of guards in your house alone, who can run to your house to empty all the belongings, steal all the female dependents, and not alarm the guards at all, this is too unbelievable, could it be that the gods did it?" The officials of the Public Security Bureau still couldn't believe this kind of thing, and felt that it was either the gods or the emperor who could play such a big game, thinking that this matter might be done secretly by the emperor, he muttered a little for a while, and he didn't know whether to take care of it or not, whether to pretend or really to investigate and recover.

While a group of people were buzzing and shouting, the battle of the bandits on the side of Montenegro was fierce. The 50,000 Montenegrin local soldiers thought that as long as they found the trace of the horse thief, they could completely exterminate the horse thief with a handle in their hands, but they did not expect that the horse thief was found, and in the end, they were beaten by the horse thief and ran all over the mountain. Those horse thieves were in a good place at the right time and occupied everything, some were hiding in dangerous places waiting to release cold arrows, some were waiting to be ambushed in places where they would never appear, and some were changing their formations sharply on flat terrain, and the 50,000 Montenegrin local army was cut into pieces in less than two days, and a large number of people disappeared from the third day, judging by the situation, they should have been captured.

Sure enough, on the evening of the third day, the local army received a cold arrow early, saying that they had more than 18,000 prisoners in their hands, or 100 taels of silver, and demanded 1,875,000 taels of silver. The commander-in-chief of the local army to suppress bandits issued a message with a crying face, saying that the horse thieves were powerful and that the horse thieves were repeating their old tricks, and asked the imperial court for urgent support and asked the imperial court to prepare silver taels as soon as possible.

The imperial court was shocked when it received the summons, and Hang Xiao hurriedly summoned the civil and military ministers to urgently discuss this sudden situation. They originally thought that there were only two or three thousand horse thieves in Montenegro, but they didn't expect that the judgment in front was that there were at least seventy or eighty thousand, and the combat effectiveness was extremely strong, no matter whether they were pursuing, harassing, cutting and surrounding, they were all extremely sharp, such a powerful bandit. Not to mention 50,000 local troops, even 200,000 local troops are enough to choke.

"Are there really so many horse thieves?" Hang Xiao looked at the civil and military ministers in a hall hesitantly, thinking that it should be the local army of Montenegro who exaggerated the enemy's situation, and no matter how many horse thieves there were, there could not be seventy or eighty thousand.

"It is very likely that there are so many, and it should be organized by Mo Cong, otherwise it would not have happened so strange two days ago, and the property and people in so many places disappeared overnight. Zhao Rong said with a bitter face, revealing the truth in one word.

"The thing you are talking about, the capital alone must have at least tens of thousands of people to do it at the same time. And these people must all be top masters, where are there so many top masters in Rui Kingdom, even I can't get together so many people, let alone Mo Cong?" Hang Xiao looked at Zhao Rong unhappily. I wonder when it's gone, and I'm still thinking about his.

But what happened to Zhao Rong's, Hang Xiao still can't figure it out. To carry out such a big action on a national scale, it is true that only Hang Xiao can play such a big move, but Hang Xiao clearly knows that this matter is not done by himself. And even if he sent someone to do it, he might not be able to do it so unknowingly, Hang Xiao was shocked for a while, and faintly felt that maybe it was really the immortal manifestation that was punishing Zhao Rong and a large group of corrupt officials. Thinking of this, Hang Xiao's mentality towards Zhao Rong gradually changed.

Zhao Rong also heard Hang Xiao's emotions, and quickly put down his private affairs and talked about business, he said that since the horse thieves are powerful, they should mobilize the army to quickly exterminate them, so as not to make the horse thieves bigger and bigger, and finally make trouble out of control.

"Although the battle at Juling Pass is fierce, the local troops of some provinces in the north dare not draw out to suppress bandits, but some provinces west of Montenegro and south of Montenegro can completely send troops to the front line to suppress bandits, and in addition, Montenegro Province itself still has 100,000 local troops idle, so that hundreds of thousands of troops can be drawn out soon, and these people will soon be able to exterminate the Montenegrin horse thieves in one fell swoop. Zhao Rong said.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks this is inappropriate, the neighboring provinces of Montenegro are all mountainous areas, in case a large area of troops is transferred to Montenegro, but those horse thieves in Montenegro take the opportunity to wander to other places, then it is the echo of the endless troubles, far more difficult than only Montenegro alone. In view of this situation, each province can only draw a small amount of 20,000 or 30,000 people, and most of the troops still have to rely on the province of Montenegro. A minister said.

"Well, this has to be guarded against, okay, then discuss it as soon as possible to see how many people should be drawn from where, and pass on the order as soon as possible. Hang Xiao nodded.

In the evening of the same day, the imperial court issued an order to Montenegro and several provinces, requiring all localities to mobilize troops and horses as soon as possible to support the front line of the bandits, and the Montenegro region must quickly send troops to support, and the conditions for the horse thieves to ask for money can be tried to make time for support. In addition, due to the serious banditry in Montenegro, considering that it was dangerous for Mo Cong and Chen Ruoping to stay in Montenegro, the imperial court also kindly arranged for two Montenegrin local armies to rush to the main peak of Montenegro with lightning speed, specifically to rescue Mo Cong, Chen Ruoping, and Mo Cong's adoptive father and adoptive mother.

Before dawn the next day, the calm small mountain village was broken by a team of soldiers and horses, and Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang were still sleeping when a group of local soldiers smashed the door of the house and swarmed in, and then they were tied up and thrown on horseback to rush back. The same situation happened at the house of the eldest girl and the second girl, and the eldest girl and several children were all tied up and thrown on horseback to a safe place to be escorted. ”

In the early morning, the sky was bright, and the Montenegrin local army that supported the front line of the bandit suppression had not yet arrived, and the main peak of Montenegro, the Black Dragon Peak, had been surrounded by the Montenegrin local army that had come to "rescue" Mo Cong and Chen Ruoping, and because they could not find the way up the mountain, they had to shout together at the bottom of the mountain, asking Mo Cong and Chen Ruoping to go down the mountain immediately to follow them, so as not to be affected by the war.

At this time, Mo Xiao and Mo Min's thirteen maid rings were all on the top of the black dragon, and the young men were all on the road and had not come back, and the family was all panicked when they heard the movement under the mountain.

"Young master, the officers and soldiers are here, what should I do?" Steward Mo looked at Mo Cong, who was helped out by Mo Yu to check the situation, and asked anxiously.

"Don't worry, they can't go up the mountain, so let's not panic, do whatever you have to do. Mo Cong said lightly, opened the antlers and walked out of the yard.

"There are so many people under the mountain, what should we do?" Mo Yu looked at the shadowy people under the mountain in the distance, listening to the shouts of I don't know how many people together, and was very worried.

"It's okay, let's stay in the mountains, let the young guys go out to buy something every day, and you and Sister Mo and others will also hunt some prey on the mountain, so let's spend it with those officers and soldiers first, they will naturally leave if they can't afford it." Mo Cong said.

"When will the boys come back?" Moyu asked.

"I should be back today, in the afternoon or evening. Mo Cong said.

While the two were talking, Mo Cong suddenly heard the sound of a bird flying back, so he asked Mo Yu to help him walk towards the back mountain. When he arrived at the back mountain, Mo Cong asked Mo Yu to feed the birds, and then took a piece of information from the leg of a bird and looked at it.

The information was sent by Ding Xiaofeng, saying that a Montenegrin local army had captured some people at a farmer's house fifty miles away from the main peak of Montenegro, and another Montenegrin local army was marching towards the main peak of Montenegro, so that Mo Cong could deal with it urgently. Mo Cong quickly wrote a letter and sent it back, so that Ding Xiaofeng didn't have to worry about the situation on his side, as long as he fought his battle with peace of mind.

"Who are you contacting?" Mo Yu asked Mo Cong in a low voice as he watched the birds fly away.

"A girl. Mo Cong said.

"Huh, do you have any other girls?" Moyu was surprised.

"No, we ...... It's quite innocent. Mo Cong said. (To be continued......)
