Chapter 19

"You've found something, tell me more about it."

Boss Li sat there and waited for Gu Lei's reply.

Li Yu burned the tea, served tea to the elders one by one, opened the small table, and took out the map.

"Uncle, I heard that there is a nest of bandits on the road five hundred miles north of the west of the city, and they have often harassed the residents near the town recently.

"Now that the people are in a precarious situation, they can't work hard, and I think we can get a vote and leave."

"Which location?"

Boss Li looked down at Yutu.

Gu Lei quickly found a position for him, and used his hand a little, "It's in this area, I have to touch the situation, the pawnshop manager said, the bandits' nest has been here for three or four years, not the first day." ”

"I don't know how many people, we have too few people."

"Dad, I'm thinking that I can do a vote for the cold man, and now that the price of food has risen, they also have to eat."

Li Yu pointed to the map and continued: "This piece is the road we came over, the farmland is almost not harvested, it was hit by a disaster last year, and this year there is a small area of floods, how can there be food." ”

"According to the analysis of the clues I heard, they are in this area, to the south, there is a trade route on this road, the only way to and from the business, for the merchants, the more expensive the food, the more valuable their things, and the risk is also worth it."

"Yu'er is right, the arrangement is good, and you can do a vote."

Grandpa Gu also nodded in approval of Li Yu's idea.

"Then you have to take a salary from the bottom of the kettle."

"And I'm sure they won't be too many, no more than twenty, and they won't be able to afford more."

"Oh, what are you judging based on?"

Boss Li looked at Gu Lei with a smile and guided the children to grow up step by step.

"You see, the steward of the pawnshop said that if you can't catch anyone for two or three years, you must be able to hide, and if there are many people, you need a stronghold, and you can't hide people for a long time in this mountain forest, so you will become a savage.

The number of people is small, so they are mobile and flexible, and it is not easy to be caught. If there are few people, you can hide anywhere, and if there are many people, you have to use a car to pull the grain, and you have to consume a large cart of grain in a few days, and the stuffing will be exposed early. ”

"It may be that the villagers are covering, now the world is too chaotic, the poor can't get by, and it's not uncommon to rob homes and houses."

Li Yu also added.

"This piece is a farmer's house, a village and town, Dad, if you hide in it and the villagers cover you, it's really hard to find."

Li Rui also pointed to the map and said.

"That's true, many bandits are small groups of crimes, enter the villages and towns and break into pieces, soon people disappear, they can't be found, they are originally peasant men, and the work in the field is also a leader, you can't identify it."

Boss Li has been leading troops in battles all year round and is very experienced in these things.

"Dad, then they will definitely go out, when they get out of the nest, we will raid his hometown, they must have a place to hide treasures and food, maybe not in the same place."

Li Yu touched his chin and smiled, cunning rabbit three holes.

"Okay, I'll leave this preliminary investigation of the news to Leizi and Brother Rui."

"I'll go too."

"I'm afraid you won't be able to get it back."

Boss Li glared at his daughter.

The girl has a poor sense of direction, is a road idiot, and is easy to get lost.

Li Yu pouted, drooping his little face, unhappy.

Gu Lei lowered his head and coaxed her: "Don't worry, we'll go and inquire about the news for you, and you have to take the lead when you come back." ”

"Liar, you won't take me to play when you come back."

Li Yu twisted his head angrily.

Li Rui couldn't see that his sister was wronged, so he hurriedly said, "No, we don't have enough manpower without you, and we are not as good as your knife skills combined, so I will definitely take you to play." ”

This is the truth, after being reborn, Li Yu suffered a lot to practice martial arts, she has good roots and high talent, there is no reason why she is willing to sink down and learn her skills, and Li Rui and Gu Lei together can't beat her.

Li Yu took his eyes to go to Daddy.

Boss Li smiled dotingly, "If you listen to the order, you will be asked to fight the bandits, if you are disobedient and impulsive, I will not take you." ”

"Then I'll be obedient, Dad, you take me, you don't have enough manpower, I'm worried."

Boss Li thought about it for a while and agreed, but there was no way, there were not enough people, so he could only wronged his daughter to do the work that the man did.

Li Yuke was happy and went to work happily.

Gu Lei looked at Li Yu's back and muttered, "I wronged Yu'er and the man to fight and kill together." ”

Old man Li shook his head, "No, my Li family's children, regardless of men and women, can't be squeamish, in troubled times, having the ability to save life is a sharp weapon, I would rather my granddaughter be fierce than be bullied." ”

Li Rui also nodded, "My sister is not the youngest daughter of the boudoir, Yu'er is able to go into battle to kill the enemy, she is a better girl than a man, she shouldn't be detained in the inner house to bury her talents." ”

Gu Lei asked Li Rui rhetorically, "You are not afraid that she will be disliked by her husband's family and no one will want her." There are few good men who can find her. ”

A pair of peach blossom eyes are shining, blinking.

Li Rui looked at him deeply, "No one wants to be the baby of my Li family, my sister-in-law, I raised it for a lifetime, our father and son are not dead, and no one can bully my sister." ”

The words are sonorous and powerful, and the eyes are firm and powerful.

"I know, her temper is angry material, it's good not to bully others."

Gu Lei glanced at him.

"Alright, you can go back tomorrow morning, and be careful not to be noticed."

"Yes."

The two answered.

Li Yu found things and weapons overnight.

"You two come here, give you two good things."

She took the arm and the hidden weapon and gave them to them.

"There are too few arrows, this is made of iron, the range is long, and the power is great, it's hard to find now, try to get the arrows back for me."

"Okay."

Li Yu also prepared things for the news, as well as water bladder food and dagger wound medicine.

That night, several people were together again and constantly deducing all the possible situations and the route of escape and pursuit, to ensure that the bandits would not catch up with them, and to destroy the enemy's nest in one fell swoop.

It's still Li Yu on duty at night, and tomorrow morning they will go to investigate the situation and rest well.

Before dawn, the two brothers walked away in the dark, unnoticed.

The ladies have to wait here for a day before setting off, and they have to leave first before Li Yu and the others can let go of their hands and feet.

Everything was ready, and Li Rui came back that night and told them the good news, those bandits may still have to act in the past few days, and some merchants will come over in a few days, and they are counting the days.

Grandpa Gu left before dawn with the carriage and the female children.

Lin Yue muttered, "Why do you have to fight bandits, it's the same if we save a little use, it's too dangerous." ”

"Shut up, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, the big husband has something to do and something not to do."

For the first time, Gu Lin reprimanded his niece.

Lin Yue was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect her aunt to scold her.

"Bandits plague the people, we can't change the tyranny, but we can eliminate the bandits, so that the people can live in peace day by day."

"Don't intervene if you don't understand, so many of us have to eat a lot of food a day, don't talk about it if you don't have money."

Gu Lin was angry, and Lin Yue was so frightened that she was silent.
