Chapter 377: Reinforcements Arrive

"Childe, robbers have often appeared nearby lately."

In a cave, the guard knelt down on one knee and reported to Li Jing about the presence of robbers nearby.

"It seems that this gang of robbers is not dead yet, and they will not give up until they find us."

Li Jing also didn't expect that these robbers would be so persistent, didn't they just kill a few of them?

As for the fact that they have been looking for them for the past few days, if they continue like this, they will hide here, and sooner or later they will be discovered by the bandits.

However, there is nothing to worry about, just a group of robbers, who will destroy as many as they come.

"Since they are all here, we can't help but entertain them, send someone to take them all, and then send them to a nearby city."

"It's best to send it directly to Lanzhou City, and before sending it over, ask them about their crimes and see how the Lanzhou government will deal with it."

Li Jing decided to use these robbers to give it a try, the attitude of the Lanzhou government, how did the Lanzhou officials solve the problem after these robbers were sent to Lanzhou City and their crimes were made public.

"Yes!"

The guard replied and bowed and retreated.

"The chamberlain has been out for so long and hasn't come back yet? Did you send someone to pick him up? ”

Li Jing asked the guards beside him.

"Someone has been sent to pick it up, and there is no news of them yet."

The guard replied respectfully.

At this moment, a guard trotted in and saluted, "Childe, the person sent out to ask for troops is back!"

As soon as the guards finished speaking, a few people walked in from outside the cave, and the people who walked in front were the people sent by Li Jing to transfer troops, followed by several generals.

"See Childe!"

The guards crossed their hands and saluted Li Jing.

"Meet Childe!"

The military attachés behind the guards saluted one after another.

These are all reinforcements called by the guards, and they are all envoys of the new army.

They were Wang Haibin, the envoy of the Seventh Army, Zhang Lingwu, the envoy of the Ninth Army, Zuo Fuguo, the envoy of the Tenth Army, Zhou Nan, the envoy of the Thirteenth Army, Wang Tongjiao, the envoy of the Fifteenth Army, and their general Yue Yun.

"Excuse me, you came at the right time, I was thinking about encircling and suppressing the robbers of Niutou Mountain, and I was worried that I didn't have any soldiers in my hands, so you came."

Just solved a piece of my heart disease, Yue Yun, you lead three armies to encircle and suppress the robbers in Niutou Mountain, and you must kill them all. ”

"The most important thing is to capture the bandit leaders, I want to know who is behind them, instructing them to do things that violate the law and discipline, and I will be right."

Li Jing didn't talk to everyone politely, and now before the other party knew the news, he immediately sent troops to encircle and suppress Niutou Mountain.

As for the situation that the cottage road is not easy to walk, it doesn't matter, the new army of the Tang Dynasty has artillery, directly bombarded with artillery, and then charged.

A group of mountain bandits and robbers who occupy the mountains are nothing more than a group of local chickens and dogs in the face of powerful firepower, and it is not a matter of minutes to destroy them.

"Yes, the minister will exterminate the robbers of Niutou Mountain, I don't know where this Niutou Mountain is?"

Yue Yun crossed his hands and saluted, first asking the specific location of Niutou Mountain, so that he could lead his troops over to exterminate the robbers and bandits, and only then could he not be defeated in a hundred battles.

"I will send someone to take you there, as well as the topographic map of Niutou Mountain, and I will also give it to you."

After listening to Yue Yun's words, Li Jing decided to send guards to take them over to suppress the bandits, and by the way, bring Yue Yun the map drawn these days, which might be helpful.

In the past few days, Li Jing has not been idle, and sent people to lurk near Niutou Mountain, inquired about the situation of Niutou Mountain, and drew a map of the vicinity of Niutou Mountain.

Li Jing assigned a guard, brought a map, and took Yue Yun to Niutou Mountain to suppress bandits.

Yue Yun took the ninth, tenth, and thirteenth armies and set off with the guards to suppress the bandits.

The remaining Seventh Army and the Fifteenth Army followed Li Jing into Lanzhou City and took down the official army of Lanzhou who colluded with bandits.

The most important thing now is to get the information first, those officials colluded with the robbers, and those officials are innocent, so as not to catch the wrong person when the time comes.

"Childe, why are we still staying here? Why don't you just enter Lanzhou City and control the officials in the city first. ”

Wang Tongjiao didn't understand, they brought a large army, just go directly to Lanzhou City to arrest people, if anyone dares to resist, directly correct the law on the spot.

Could it be that waiting here, the other party will take the initiative to stand up and admit that he colluded with the robbers?

"Don't be impatient, I've sent someone into the city to inquire about the situation in the city, and you will be there for you soon."

How could Li Jing not understand what Wang Tongjiao meant, arresting people is actually very simple, it is rare that after arresting people, who should run the official government system in the city.

Who should maintain law and order, who will settle a lot of messes, and it is very simple to arrest people, but if they are all arrested, it will lead to the complete paralysis of the operation of the government system in the city.

Wang Haibin and Wang Tongjiao are both born in martial arts, and they have led troops to fight, and they are not bad at fighting bravely.

But the two of them are not capable of governing a city well, and there are a lot of people needed to govern the place, and various subjects and so on need corresponding talents.

Wang Tongjiao wanted to ask again, but was pulled by Wang Haibin, shook his head at Wang Tongjiao, and signaled him not to say any more, there was no need for that.

As courtiers, they only need to obey the edicts of the saints, and it is better not to talk too much about other things that they should not talk about.

"Childe, Childe! The slave is back! ”

Hearing this voice, Li Jing was immediately overjoyed, he could finally do something to the moths in the city, hoping that the chamberlain could bring him back good news.

"Why, can I ask clearly, which officials in the city should die?"

Li Jing stepped forward, looked at the attendant kneeling in front of him and asked.

Looking at the package on the back of the chamberlain, could this be the evidence of the guilt of the officials of Lanzhou City?

"After the slave maid got in touch with the black-clothed guard, she learned from the black-clothed guard about the information of Lanzhou officials, and more than ten officials, including the governor of Lanzhou, colluded with the robbers."

"These are all evidence of their crimes, evidence secretly collected by the black-clothed guard, and I ask Gongzi to look at it."

The waiter said, untied the package on his back, took out a secret box from it, and presented it to Li Jing.

Li Jing ordered someone to open the secret box, took out the evidence inside, and looked through it, which recorded the officials who colluded with the robbers, from the governor of Lanzhou to the minor officials of Jiupin, and there were people who interacted with the robbers.

Even, among them, not only oppressed the people of the Tang Dynasty, but even some people did things like killing people and selling goods, and even forced good people to become prostitutes.

The past business travelers were poisoned by them, and even the merchants from the Western Regions, they did not let go, and even set up clever names to collect all kinds of taxes.

The people of Lanzhou and the merchants of the Western Regions naturally didn't do it, so they thought about going to Chang'an to complain, but these people were all killed.

This led to the merchants of the Tang Dynasty and the Western Regions not daring to take this road, which also led to the economic depression of the Silk Road.

Some people died, but not completely......
