Chapter 182

"Did that bitch tell you to come and kill me?"

As soon as the new leader of the Birch Bandits met Yadimu, his words were quite wrong.

He looked at Yadimu in front of him, and the expression on his face was a little distorted: "I knew you wouldn't let me go!" ”

"After killing the leader, you want to kill me all by bite!"

His face was hideous, and he was constantly struggling there.

Yadimu was on the side, and he couldn't help but be stunned when he listened.

Although the other party's words are not much, the amount of information revealed in the words is very large.

The previous leader was killed in order to kill the mouth?

Yadimu remained silent, just looked at the strong man in front of him with a smile, and said softly: "This gentleman, we may have some misunderstanding. ”

"But I'm interested in what you said earlier."

He stepped forward, approached the other party, and looked at the other party with a smile: "And please look carefully." ”

"You really don't remember me, do you?"

Listening to Yadimu's words, the other party was silent at first, and he already realized that the situation was wrong.

The other party didn't seem to be the group he expected.

He subconsciously looked at Yadimu's face, looked carefully, and then was suddenly startled, and the expression on his face began to twitch: "It's you!" ”

"Good."

Yadimu noticed the other party's reaction: "It seems that the first student knows me. ”

"That's a lot easier."

"Now, I hope Your Excellency can cooperate with you, so that you can suffer less, okay?"

He looked at the other man, his words were rather mild, but the implicit threat was clearly audible.

The middle-aged man couldn't help but be silent, and only spoke after a while: "What do you want to know?" ”

"That's probably a lot."

Artimus pondered for a moment, then smiled, "Let's start with your leader. ”

"You should know how the previous leader died."

"Of course I do."

The man nodded, and after a little hesitation, he still spoke.

It is often said that those who know the times are the masters, and this is very suitable for this group of robbers.

Normal people may need some torture to take the initiative to cooperate, but this is not the case in the face of this group of robbers.

Because they know what will happen if they don't cooperate.

Those methods of torturing people are enough to torture the toughest-willed tough guys to open their mouths, and they will never dare to hide it in the slightest.

Instead of being beaten more, it's better to cooperate honestly.

If you're lucky, you might still have a way out.

Through the leader of the bandit group in front of him, Artimu also knew some of the internal situation of the birch bandit group more clearly and in detail.

The previous leader of the Birch Bandits was indeed dead, but not a normal death, but a human being killed.

Why was he killed, this has to start with the origin of the birch bandits.

The Birch Bandits themselves were the Black Gloves established by some nobles for extra gain.

In other words, the former chief himself was a subordinate of other nobles, and specialized in doing things that were inconvenient for those nobles.

This went on for a long time.

It wasn't until some time ago that the leader of the birch bandit group gradually had the meaning of rebellion.

This is actually quite normal.

After all, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and if it takes a long time, there will always be some embarrassment.

But it is clear that this has violated the rules in the hearts of those people.

So after the last mission, the group eliminated the previous leader of the Birch Bandits, and then elected the current leader to power.

This is where the chaos within the birch bandits comes from.

And then Yadimu also bumped into it at this time.

"You just said the last mission."

Yadimu looked at the middle-aged man in front of him with interest: "The last mission you said won't be the one that intercepted me, right?" ”

"Yes."

The middle-aged man opened his mouth, but finally nodded slowly, reluctantly admitting this.

He knew that if he didn't admit it, he wouldn't be able to pass this hurdle no matter what.

From the situation in front of him, it can be seen that the Yadimu in front of him is completely a ruthless person.

God knows what will happen if you don't obey this kind of character.

"That time we were tasked to go over and kill your caravan and capture a man there."

"Arrest?"

Artimu quickly realized something: "Arrest whom?" ”

The ultimate purpose of the last interception was to arrest people.

Obviously, the target of this is not the predecessor of Artimu's body, but someone else.

And that's very problematic.

In that caravan, who was the most special and honorable person besides Yatimu?

Artimu's heart suddenly had an answer.

"Gulga."

Under the gaze of Artimu, the man finally said a name.

There was a heavy helplessness on his face: "I don't know much, I just know that this should be a woman." ”

The smile on Artimu's face faded.

Gulja, this is a very unfamiliar name to others, but it is all too familiar to Yadimu.

Strictly speaking, this should be the sister of the predecessor and the protagonist of their journey.

According to the memories left by their predecessors, the main purpose of their going out was to send their former sister out of the area and go to study far away.

As a result, when they arrived near the city of Lima, they were intercepted and killed.

The predecessor of Yadimu's body was killed on the spot, and the sister of the predecessor disappeared, not knowing where she went.

This is obviously not normal.

Judging from the current situation, even the birch bandit group of robbers will attack them because of the sister of the predecessor.

Therefore, the emotional predecessor was an unlucky one, obviously he didn't do anything, but he was swept up.

Artimus couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"That's all I know."

In front of him, the voice of the big man sounded.

His expression looked a little apprehensive, and he just stood there looking at Artimu: "Is there anything else you want to ask?" ”

"Not yet."

Yadimu nodded, and then subconsciously asked, "However, are you sure which ones are involved?" ”

In addition to the reason for the attack, Yadimu also asked the supporters behind the attack.

These people are the main ones.

Only when he knows these people, can he have some leeway whether he takes revenge or comes to the door to do something else.

However, judging from the few forces I have heard so far, it seems that the strength of each one is not weak.

"I don't know."

The man said with some trepidation: "I only recently became the leader, and many things are not clear before. ”

"There may be others, but I don't know."

"Is that so?"

Yadimu nodded: "Okay, you go down and rest." ”

"Don't worry."

He glanced at the other party, and then said, "For the sake of your cooperation, I won't kill you." ”

"After that, stay with me, no problem, right?"

He looked at the other and spoke softly.

"Yes, yes."

The man nodded hurriedly, a little glad in his heart.

For him, as long as he can leave a life, it is earned.

As for anything else, he didn't care.

Anyway, it's all about doing things for people, and it doesn't make much difference.

The reason why Yadimu didn't kill him was because he hoped that he could play a role later.

Although the other party has explained most of the things, there must still be quite a few details that have not been said.

If you kill them now, if you can use them in the future, then no one will use them.

So Artimus spared his life.

The man was left by the servant on the side, and then after a few moments, Sailor walked over with excitement on his face.

"It's a good harvest."

He looked at Yadimu and said with a smile: "There are quite a lot of things here. ”

After this period of hard work, Yadimu's gains and losses this time have also been cleared.

The loss aspect is negligible.

In the process of attacking, the opponent did not organize any decent resistance at all, so that the whole process was quite smooth.

In the entire bandit group, a full 200 people were captured.

Just these captives are a lot of money.

Not to mention other possessions.

This is the base camp of the Birch Bandits, and there are many treasures accumulated in the past.

There were thousands of gold coins alone, and other goods were piled up.

These were supposed to be caravan caravan goods that the bandit regiment had previously robbed.

When the robber group robs, those gold coins and the like are naturally needless to say, and then they are spent, but those goods must find an opportunity to sell in order to get the maximum profit.

So once it is unsalable, these things will pile up.

Yadimu went to see it himself.

The bandits' cargo included furs, jewelry, and a lot of food.

Look, they robbed more than one caravan.

Artimu looked at it casually, and then suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Why did he think that these things were placed there, and there was an inexplicable familiarity?

Don't.........

He stood there and pondered for a moment before confirming what he had in mind.

Yes, the goods piled up in front of him were none other than what the bandits had looted from Adimu and his party.

That's a good guy.

The bandits robbed the caravan, and then Artimus led the men to bring it back.

It's kind of a cycle.

"Odds and bits, there are always things for one or two thousand gold coins."

Artimus stepped aside and wandered around before making this judgment.

The value of these things is very good, and the price of those furs and jewels can be doubled if they can be sold through channels.

And this channel, the Shaman Gang also happens to have.

In Lima, after the Shaman Gang eliminated the Brotherhood, they swallowed up most of the Brotherhood's channels and properties.

Those trade routes are also one of them.

"I didn't expect the harvest to be quite big."

Looking at the statistics of this harvest in front of him, even Yadimu couldn't help but be surprised.

At this point, he even wondered if he would do it again.

If he can make such a big gain every time, then he doesn't seem to have to do anything else.

Just concentrate on robbery.

Glitter punctured Yadimu's thoughts in time.

"The Birch Bandits are just an exception."

As if sensing what Artimus was thinking, he explained, "Lima City is the center of the nearby area, and a large number of caravans come every once in a while. ”

"Relying on these caravans, there are always some wealthy bandit groups nearby, but there are not many who are as rich as this bandit group in front of you."

He explained the situation to Artimu in detail.

To put it simply, there are indeed many bandit groups nearby, but there are basically not a few that are as wealthy as the birch bandit group.

Most of the bandit bandits are struggling to make ends meet, and their members are often unable to eat.

That's the reality.

And those wealthy bandit groups are often not very easy to deal with.

In fact, even the birch bandit group is not so easy to deal with.

If it weren't for the internal strife within the bandit group, the previous leader died inexplicably, and there was an internal dispute, judging from the basic plate of the birch bandit group, it would be quite difficult to take them down.

Not to mention anything else, it is Huamu Village at the foot of the mountain, which is not so easy for ordinary people to get there.

"I understand."

For Gretel's suggestion, Artimu naturally understood.

So he smiled and said, "But it doesn't really matter. ”

Even if the other bandit groups don't have much to gain, they can still have some leftovers.

You don't need too much of this, you just need to be enough to give out commendations to the soldiers.

Artemu's train of thought was distinctly different from Gretel's.

In Gretel's opinion, most bandit groups are difficult to take, and the gains are often not too big, rather than going out of their way to attack them, it is better to maintain a good relationship with them, which will save a lot of trouble.

But Artimu clearly didn't see it that way.

Exterminating those bandit groups may not gain much in terms of money, but it can gain a good reputation.

It's an invisible asset.

At the same time, constantly fighting with the robbers can also have the effect of corresponding training.

That's what matters most to Artimu.

It doesn't matter anything else, but the army under your command, this is the most important thing.

For Yadimu, whose strength has not yet fully recovered at this moment, the team under his command is his strongest strength.

In this case, it is natural to find a way to make it stronger.

Although the training in peacetime is hard enough, only the sharpening of actual combat can make them become more elite soldiers.

"Yes, I see."

Listening to Yadimu's words, Grett nodded again and again, and then understood what Yadimu meant.

"Let's go."

Artimus stood up and looked at the scene in front of him: "This place is good, it would be a pity if it was so deserted." ”

"Send some people to come and station, repair this place, maybe it will be used in the future."

"Yes."

Sailo on the side also kept nodding.

That's his job.

After explaining all kinds of things, Yadimu led most of his men and went down the mountain.

The next day, Artimus himself came to the door and found Kelai.

"Which territory do you want?"

Listening to the intention of Artimu, Kelai's face showed surprise.
