Chapter Seventy-Four: The Stupid Thief Who Got in the Way
Yuan Mansion in the capital, Yuan Shao's study, Yuan Shao and the judge sat on the ground.
"Sir, someone came to report just now that Fan Xiwen has left Jingshi." Yuan Shao gritted his teeth with hatred for Fan Xiwen, if it wasn't for the pressure before, he wouldn't have shaken hands with Fan Xiwen. Now Fan Xiwen has left Jingshi far away, and now even if he dies, it will not be transmitted to Jingshi, and it will not have any impact on Yuan Shao at all. According to Yuan Shao's character of retribution, this is a good time for revenge.
"Is Ming Gong planning to pursue Fan Xiwen?" The judge asked.
"That's right, the reason why Fan Xiwen didn't die last time was because Emperor Wang Yue happened to be passing by, otherwise he wouldn't have survived at all." Speaking of the last assassination, Yuan Shao was annoyed in his heart, the eleven dead soldiers were the eleven of the most elite guards of the Yuan family, but they were all solved by Wang Yue at one time, and Yuan Shao's heart was dripping blood.
Everything was blamed on Wang Yue, Yuan Shao must now give himself an excuse to continue to retaliate against Fan Xiwen, if he doesn't blame Wang Yue for the death of those secret guards, then Yuan Shao doesn't have the courage to continue to find Fan Xiwen's stubble now.
"Since Ming Gong has made up his mind, then he should give Ming Gong an idea." For Yuan Shao, he has always come for his reputation as the fourth and third dukes, so he is still quite loyal to Yuan Shao.
"Sir teach me." Yuan Shao was willing to give himself an idea when he heard the trial, and his heart was suddenly overjoyed. has an idea to judge, even if Fan Xiwen does not die, it will definitely peel off the skin.
"Ming Gong just needs to do this, this, this." The judge leaned into Yuan Shao's ear and said, Yuan Shao listened to the smug light in his eyes.
It's just that Yuan Shao didn't know that not only was the emperor Wang Yue in Fan Xiwen's party, but also two more fierce generals and a strategist who was no less than the trial. Whether Fan Xiwen can be calculated under the premise of lack of sufficient intelligence is still an unknown number.
But in any case, Yuan Shao's revenge plan for Fan Xiwen has been launched, and everything is driven out of a fast horse in the backyard of Yuan's mansion.
The Wei family, Old Man Wei's eyebrows are furrowed now. A letter on the bookcase with unfinished notes was signed by the old master of the Wei family. This letter was written by Cai Yong, as for what the content is, there is no need to say, the specific core is that the marriage between the Cai family and the Wei family has been blown up, and Wen Ji can't help it if he doesn't agree to be a father.
Looking at this letter, Old Man Wei was quite depressed. The Wei family entered Beijing with great momentum, and almost half of the capital knew that the Wei family was here to propose marriage to the Cai family. But now it's good, it's actually rejected, and the Wei family's face is really not good. Moreover, Cai Yong's reputation is very high, and the Cai family is not afraid of the Wei family at all, and it will not work at all. After thinking about it, Old Man Wei fixed the focus of the question on Cai Wenji's body. To say that his son Wei Zhongdao's reputation is actually very good, there is no romance circulating.
In the end, Old Man Wei slapped his forehead, remembered the big event that happened the day before yesterday, and his face was as dead as ashes.
Thinking of the hateful Fan Xiwen, Old Man Wei felt a nameless karmic fire in his heart and had nowhere to vent. not only harmed his son Wei Zhongdao's face, but also harmed his own face. When Old Man Wei thought of this, he immediately repaired a book and sent it to Jizhou Thorn Shi Han Fu. Han Fu was good friends with the Wei family in his early years, and Old Man Wei and Han Fu were even better friends, and now Fan Xiwen is still under Han Fu's control even if he is promoted to An Pingxiang.
============= divider ==============
Five days later, Fan Xiwen and his entourage entered the border of the inner part of the river.
Nameless Xiaoshan, because of the addition of Guo Jia on the return trip, Fan Xiwen was not as sleepy as when he came. Along the way, Fan Xiwen and Guo Jia talked, and from time to time a famous quote and truth from later generations that had been tested by countless people came out, and Guo Jia was brilliant to hear. When it comes to the military establishment of the Le'an Army, Guo Jia is full of praise for Fan Xiwen's wisdom, and Guo Jia attributed the founder of this military establishment to Fan Xiwen. As a strategist who is good at military affairs, Guo Jia naturally sees the benefits of the "three-three organization" of the Le'an Army, which is flexible and mobile, and Guo Jia shows strong curiosity about this unit.
As for Xu Chu and Wen Jia, they accept the challenge of the guards every day, and they fight every day, and they are also tired of this. After Xu Chu's guidance, Fan Xiwen, who came to see them when he was bored, couldn't help but secretly praise in his heart: "It's really worthy of being the bodyguard captain for Boss Cao." ”
The group walked slowly and leisurely to Hanoi, and now that the sun was about to set, it was no longer suitable for walking, and Fan Xiwen was about to order the troops to set up camp after climbing this small hill. Suddenly, he noticed that something was shaking in the grass in front of him, so he ordered the troops to be on guard, and at the same time called the guards to wind up the crossbow and prepare to test it with the repeater.
"Damn, boss, what's that in their hands?" There was a rough voice in the grass, it looked like I had encountered the legendary bandit bandit, but it was obvious that it was a bandit, and I hadn't even seen a crossbow What is not a bandit?
"It doesn't matter what he is, there are so many of us here anyway, don't be afraid of him. Brothers come out, come out. Fan Xiwen's previous thief's voice was barely acceptable, but now he completely covered his ears, as if it was thunder on weekdays. Fan Xiwen was really a little skeptical that Zhang Fei had changed his career to start a robber business, otherwise he really didn't know where someone would make such a loud noise.
The bandit boss gave an order, and countless heads were immediately exposed around him, and everyone was staring at a wreath on their heads, which was a common trick used by the Le'an army. After counting this carefully, the number of people is afraid that there are no less than two hundred, and it seems that there are really more people than Fan Xiwen and them.
A special reminder is needed here, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Fan Xiwen and his party have been walking in disguise as a caravan, and the armor and horses are all worn inside, and it looks like they really have no combat effectiveness except for being strong. It is precisely because of this that the county orders of each county turned a blind eye and let them pass as if they had not seen it. If Fan Xiwen was allowed to leave under their rule with two hundred guards with distinct armor, and not send troops to encircle and suppress them, I would really be sorry for the gorgeous official robe. The current county order is basically a child of a family, and you will never come to his jurisdiction with a few hundred people, right? No one will believe it, and if you don't do it, they will treat you as an adversary. If Fan Xiwen took out his letter of the Le'an Order, it would be better, and he would talk about it after arresting it. The county order left his rule without reason, and he could be arrested for leaving his post without permission. If Fan Xiwen dares to resist arrest at that time, it is estimated that all the county orders in the vicinity will come to encircle and suppress Fan Xiwen.
So to sum it up, it is necessary to keep a low profile, walk in a low profile, and run into robbers in a low profile.
"Listen to the people in front, this road is mine, and this mountain is mine, so you are also mine, obediently take all the money." The big knife resisted on his shoulder, and the bandit leader strode towards Fan Xiwen and them, but he stopped after only a few steps. It seems that this bandit boss actually has a little brain.
"Just you stupid thieves? I also want to rob the young master's way, don't you take my Le'an Army in your eyes. Fan Xiwen was really happy when he heard the tone of the bandits, Fan Xiwen had not seen the bandits in the past when he was in Taihang Mountain, but those bandits were much more low-key than these people. With the strong rise of the Le'an Army, the thieves of Taihang Mountain did not dare to come to Le'an to rob the road.
"Le Anjun, where is it, I haven't heard of it, anyway, your money today is grandpa's, hurry up and get it." Does the bandit boss really not know about the Le'an Army? Impossible, a few days ago, a ranger came to the cottage, and said that in a few days, a caravan from Le'an would pass by here, and they carried countless gold and silver treasures. So the bandit boss got up and took his subordinates to ambush here since last night.
Because it had been ambushed here for a long time, it was normal for the investigators sent by Fan Xiwen not to see it.
Now as soon as the bandit boss heard that the other party was Le'an's caravan, his heart was immediately beaten by the countless gold and silver treasures that the ranger said. It's not good to think about it, Fan Xiwen and his party only have two horses, and they don't even bring a box, so even if they have money, they can't go there, but how can people who are blinded by money open their eyes easily.
"The first squad has all of them, the crossbows are scattered, the second squad has a big knife to block the enemy's attack, and the third squad pays attention to all the movements around it. Today, let these stupid thieves who are blocking the road come to see the power of my Le'an army. Fan Xiwen listened to the words of the bandit boss who didn't cry when he didn't see the coffin, and decided in his heart to give him a lesson that he would never forget.
"Ah, repeaters, they have repeaters." Among the bandits, there are not people who are not knowledgeable, at least they have heard of the weapon of the repeater, and after Fan Xiwen just issued the order, there were many bandits who rioted.
"What are you afraid of, as long as that thing rushes over, it won't have any effect, isn't it still afraid that you can't rush through this distance? To Lao Tzu, there are gold and silver treasures. "After listening to Fan Xiwen's order again, the bandit boss knew that he was now touching an iron plate, and even an ordinary army could not be equipped with a crossbow like a crossbow, and now such a caravan has dozens of crossbows, which doesn't seem to be an ordinary caravan. But even if it's not an ordinary caravan, since it's encountered, there is no possibility of retreating. If he really retreats, then he Liu Laohei will have no face to continue to work.
After Liu Laohei finished speaking, the big stick in his hand was raised, and he ran quickly under his feet, and the group of little brothers behind him also rushed down. With a wreath on his head, it looks like a primitive savage coming down the mountain, and this scene is so spectacular.
