I don't understand what the reason is, Yao Gang kidnapped the Cui family's little Nizi, but instead of going to Beicheng, he quietly hid in Nancheng. Perhaps, do you think the southern city is cluttered, and the alleys twist and turn like a maze? In short, Qin Chong felt that this was a fortunate thing. If you really go to Beicheng to save people, there are many patrols, and it will be a hundred times more difficult.

When things came to this point, Qin revisited the beginning, Yao Gang said that the Cui family owed money and did not pay it back, which was pure nonsense. If you really owe money and don't pay it back, you won't kill people and set fires, at most you will catch Xiao Nizi to pay off the debt. And the current situation, not only kidnapped the Cui family and Xiao Nizi, but also killed other people's sons, how much revenge does this have?

Qin Chong couldn't figure it out for a while, but one thing was clear, Xiao Nizi was the key.

Now three days have passed, are they still alive? Qin Chong wasn't sure. After all, looking at their ruthless methods against the Qin family, they might kill people and annihilate all traces. If you really come to the door to save people, you may hurt the Cui family. However, people still have to be saved, otherwise they will not be able to get over in their hearts.

How can we save people? Qin Zhong frowned and pondered. Suddenly, Qin Chong raised his eyebrows, and he thought of a plan.

"Well, scare the snake."

"What snake?" Xiaohu didn't hear clearly, and asked in surprise.

"That's it." Qin Chong didn't explain, and patted Xiaohu on the shoulder. "You go, find the fat tiger."

"Okay." Xiaohu answered, and ran down the hill.

Among Qin Chong's companions, there is also a fat tiger. The same age as Qin Chong, nicknamed Huzi, slightly short Qin Chong by half a head, huge and fat, running and shaking the mountains. Since he was a child, he has herded sheep and practiced the ability to fly stones. Eighty steps away, a flying stone in his hand, hit the horns of the head sheep, and hit a hundred shots.

"Third brother, what about me?" Big Tiger and Fat Tiger have never been convinced by anyone. As soon as I heard that there was a fat tiger involved, how could he be a big tiger? With a straight chest, he stared at Qin Chong with a glare, waiting to send a task.

"You are indispensable." Qin Chongyi put his arm around the big tiger's shoulders and said with a smile.

As soon as he heard that he had his own share, the big tiger grinned, and the big teeth of the smile were exposed.

"It's still a little tiger that looks good." Qin Chong pouted in disgust.

"Huh??" The smile on Dahu's face suddenly collapsed.

Taking advantage of this, Qin Zhong began to look around. Of the three rooms of the Cui family, only the one on the west side was burned, and the other two rooms were intact. Thanks to the adobe house, the fire did not spread. The one that was burned should be Cui Jiazi's room, the tables, chairs, and beds were all burned to the point that only a few sections of scorched wood remained, and the room was dark.

The other two, although not burned, are also full of messes. The wooden cabinets and beds were turned into a mess, as if they had been robbed, and they were turned over inside and out. It seems that Yao Gang and the others are looking for something. Qin Zhong guessed in his heart, carefully scanning every part of the room.

After watching it for a long time, it was in vain after all. Even if there is something, it is estimated that Yao Gang and others have already found it.

No, Yao Gang hasn't been found yet. Qin Chong suddenly stood still, and finally figured out the joints. Yao Gang arrested the Cui family and his wife at the beginning, wanting to ask something. learned that the clue was on Xiao Nizi, so he kidnapped Xiao Nizi. Cui Jiazi blocked it, so he was killed. It shows that the clue is not on Cui Jiazi.

My guess at the beginning was correct, the key is this little girl.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and it seemed that the ground was shaking. In the blink of an eye, a door-like figure blocked the door of the room, and the light in the room dimmed a little for a moment.

"Fat Tiger." Qin Zhong shouted.

"Third brother, I'm here." The fat tiger spoke, and the urn sounded angry.

"What about the sheep?" Qin Zhong asked.

"Honestly, I can't lose it." Fat Tiger said.

The water and grass in Shayuan are abundant and beautiful, which is very suitable for animal husbandry. Therefore, while raising official horses, a lot of cattle and sheep are also raised. Among them, there is a unique kind of bitter spring sheep, which has a fat meat and is extremely popular when it is shipped to Tokyo and other places. The officials of Shayuan Prison raised a large number of them privately, and then entrusted merchants to sell them in the capital to make huge profits.

Nowadays, the horses are kept less and less, and the cattle and sheep are raised.

A sheep herding baby like Fat Tiger actually doesn't have any pay. If you lose your sheep, you have to pay compensation.

The bottom of the Xiangjun here is extremely poor, and they have become the private slaves of officials, and if they want to live, they have to rely on others, and they can only be at the mercy of others. Shepherding sheep is an errand assigned to the fat tiger's family, if you do it well, you can receive a meager salary on time, and if you don't do it well or resist, the result is freezing to death and starving to death.

At that moment, the four of them gathered together and listened to Qin Chong's assignment. Big Hu Xiaohu, as well as Fat Tiger, have blind trust in Qin Chong, and let him do whatever he wants, without saying a word. They have a lot of confidence in their hearts, anyway, with Qin Chong, they can't afford to lose. After that, the four of them went back to prepare and made an appointment to act tonight.

Everyone has a task, and Qin Chong has it too. Therefore, he had to endure the pain and go to the barracks.

The military camp of the Xiaocai Battalion is located between Shayuanjian and Dali County. There is a valley there, warm in winter and cool in summer, and the spring water in the valley is gurgling, which is very conducive to Tibetan soldiers. Climb up the hill, the surrounding dozens of miles are clear at a glance, without any obstacles, which is convenient for lookout and emergency rescue.

At the mouth of the valley, the wall built by the giant wood is four zhang high, and there is an arrow tower on it, and there are soldiers guarding it at any time. There is no war here all year round, so patrolling and keeping watch has also become a kind of decoration. The gate of the barracks was open, and a group of soldiers were gathering together to chat and brag, and when they talked about their happiness, they caused a lot of laughter.

"Fifth Uncle He." Qin Chongdu walked to the camp gate, but the soldiers hadn't seen him yet, so they greeted him.

A few years ago, Qin Chong almost grew up in the military camp and practiced martial arts with the army. Since I was sent to the academy to study, I have come to the barracks much less often. But the veterans in the barracks, he can all be named.

"Hoo, the little tiger is here." He Wuyi turned around and grinned at Qin Chong.

It's just that He Wu's smile is too penetrating. A hideous scar, from the right eyebrow to the left corner of the mouth, resembles a large twisted earthworm. He grinned, really like a Yaksha ghost, the first time he saw He Wu, he was so frightened that he peed his pants. Qin Zhong heard that He Wu had been on the battlefield in his early years and had fought hard.

"Third Young Master." A group of soldiers greeted Qin Chong. He Wu's qualifications are old enough, and the battalion, including Qin Yutian, is very respectful to He Wu. These big-headed soldiers don't dare to call Xiaohuzi. No matter what, Qin Yutian is also the commander of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, and Qin Chong's identity is there.

Qin Chong was not hypocritical, he sat on the ground, grabbed He Wu's wine jug, and poured it violently.

Wipe your mouth and let out a long breath of comfort. To be honest, the wine choked my throat, but it wasn't too strong. Compared to the high wine of later generations, it is far behind. But this wine is known as burning knives.

"Boy, what are you doing in the barracks?" He Wu narrowed his eyes and asked.

"Find a few people and catch the thief at night." Qin Chong didn't hide it, and said bluntly.

"Oh?" He Wu stared at Qin Chong, his eyes flashing. "Revenge?"

It seems that it was struck by lightning, and it was really a big deal, and the military camp already knew about it. But obviously, He Wu put this matter on Yao Gang's head. Qin Chong, who was harmed by Yao Gang, was struck by lightning, so he naturally wanted to seek revenge from him. Several soldiers next to him had inexplicable smiles flashing in their eyes, clearly wanting to laugh but holding back. It's not a good thing to be struck by lightning, save some face for Qin Chong.

"It's rude to come and not to communicate." Qin Chong grinned and dragged the sentence.

"Boy, think clearly." He Wu took a sip of wine and said, "Your father is now in Yanzhou." ”

Qin Yao's two families don't deal with each other, and everyone knows about Shayuan Prison. Last time, Qin Chong discounted Yao Gang's ribs, which was calmed down thanks to Qin Yutian's concessions. As a result of the concessions, the annual dung respect was reduced by 10%. Otherwise, how could Yao Pingyuan be willing to let Qin Chong go? It's just that Qin Chong doesn't know these things.

Under normal circumstances, there are more than 20,000 horses in stock, and at the most, it can reach 40,000 horses. Think about it, how much manure does twenty or thirty thousand horses get every day? The manure is a good fertilizer, so someone buys it and sells it to farmers to fertilize their fields. The benefit here is a huge number.

The money from the sale of dung will not be included in the public account, from the Shayuan prison to the officials in all parts of the Pastoral Division, everyone has a share of the profits, which is called dung respect. Qin Yutian, as the commander of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, naturally has a share.

He Wu wanted to tell Qin Chong that he should start with a heavy attack, and if he made a big fuss, he didn't have Qin Yutian to protect him.

"Don't worry." Qin Chong was confident and nodded confidently.

"Okay, I'll pick you a few good hands." He Wu said, and was about to get up to find someone.

"No, Fifth Uncle, no." Qin Chong grabbed He Wu.

"Huh?" He Wu was angry and said angrily, "What? Can't afford it? ”

"How dare I." Qin Chong saw that He Wu had misunderstood, and shouted aggrieved repeatedly. "The fifth uncle misunderstood."

"Make it clear." He Wuyi glared and sat down again.

"This time, I want to be famous and go to capture the thief." Qin Chongshen chattered.

"What's the name of the teacher?" He Wu squinted, this was too unlike Qin Chong's style.

"There are Xixia fine works infiltrated the Shayuan prison, and the Xiao cavalry camp is arrested, and they are above board."

"Xixia fines?" He Wulu jumped up, his hand had already pressed the handle of the knife, and he was murderous in an instant.

Last year, that is, in October of the first year of Baoyuan, Li Yuanhao in the northwest was proclaimed emperor, and the founding name was Daxia, completely breaking away from the Great Song Dynasty. The Dangxiang people lived in the northwest and lived between the Great Song Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom. In order to win over the party members, the Song court and the Liao State successively granted titles and promised high-ranking officials to be generous, in order to maintain the stability of the situation in the northwest.

Western Xia has the land of Xia, Yin, Sui, You, Jing, Ling, Hui, Sheng, Gan, Liang, Gua, Sha, and Su. Li Yuanhao is eloquent and strategic, and he is unwilling to be subordinate. He once said to the left and right, "The first king was very wrong, there was such a country, and the Jews worshipped others." It can be seen that he is ambitious and has long had an attempt to stand on his own.

Li Yuanhao claimed that the emperor was self-reliant, and for a time, the Song Dynasty and the opposition were shaken. The Song court did not recognize Li Yuanhao's throne, issued an edict to "cut off the official with the surname", and stopped the northwest mutual market. On the Western Xia side, they frequently sent fine workers to spy on the military situation and incite the party and Han people in the Great Song Dynasty to attach to Xia.

As the largest horse farm in the northwest, Shayuan Jian became the main target of Xixia fine work. Over the past six months, the Xiaocai battalion has captured more than a dozen batches of fine work. The task of these meticulous works is to try their best to kill the war horses. Poisoning is the quickest and most efficient way. Therefore, the Shayuan Supervisor is highly nervous about the infiltration of prevention.

Now the situation is boiling, but everyone knows that the war between Xia and Song is inevitable.

"Fifth uncle, you sit down first." Qin Chong was taken aback by He Wu's momentum, and hurriedly pulled He Wu to sit down. Leaned into his ear and muttered for a while.

Seeing He Wu's expression, he relaxed a little, and later, he actually had a bit of a playful smile.

"Little Huzi, you're bad at learning." He Wu laughed and said.

"Soldiers, treacherous." Qin Chong dragged the sentence again.

"Well said." He Wuda smiled and slapped his palm on Qin Chong's shoulder.

In normal times, this slap is just an itch for Qin Chong. But at this time, the injury on his body had not healed, and when he touched the wound, he suddenly grinned in pain and gasped a few breaths.

Qin Chong in the past was a rampage. If I had encountered this in the past, I would have rushed over to save people a long time ago, so why would I wait for half a moment? As for the consequences, they are not considered at all. For this reason, his master Shi Yong reprimanded, He Wu also taught a lesson, and Qin Yutian was even beaten, which was completely useless.

When something happens, it's hard to change your nature, and you don't care about it at all.

Therefore, Qin Chong's performance today made He Wuda excited. In this way, he is a qualified general.

There is a brute force in the air, that is a reckless man, and he dies the fastest on the battlefield.
