Just when Yang Bangxian was suppressing bandits in Jiufeng Mountain, Hou Xing was also fighting wits and courage with the bandits in the Barbarian King Cave. On the one hand, it is also because of the solution to the bandits that Jiading industrial development has no worries, on the other hand, it is also because the third division has not been established so far, and now even the bandits can not be exterminated, what face does it have in front of friendly troops? Therefore, he asked Zan Wanshou to give him another half a month. Unlike Yang Bangxian's use of surprise attacks, Hou Xing used the strategy of luring the snake out of the hole. He left a platoon to guard a small fortress at the foot of the mountain, and he himself withdrew with the main force to Runeterrae to hide. Externally, it was claimed that the Mongolian army was coming, and he led the army back to Jiading.

The leader of this gang of Yiren bandits is also a cunning person, he has sent several groups of people down the mountain to reconnoitre, but only a small number of Thunderbolt troops were found, so he sent a small team of bandits to ransack two villages, robbed a lot of food, women, and did not have a Thunderbolt army to stop him, so he became bold again. Although the mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, the climate is too cold, and the food is consumed too quickly, and it is impossible to support it without grabbing things. Moreover, this gang of bandits is extremely "dedicated", seeing that there is money, food and women under the mountain, where can they hold it in their hearts. It's just that the vigilance of the surrounding villages is getting higher and higher, and the resistance is becoming more and more fierce, and the small bandits can't grab anything, but they have broken a lot of people.

There are more than 500 bandits in this group, and if they are out, there is no village that can resist the attack, and even Runeter Town is easy to be captured without a garrison. But the bandit also understands that the so-called risk and return are directly proportional, and the greater the benefit, the greater the risk. Therefore, he still resorts to this small-scale robbery method to avoid risks. If it's not easy to grab it at a close distance, go to a distant place to grab it. But with the increase in the number of robberies, the surrounding villages for hundreds of miles have become very vigilant, and they can't grab anything at all. At this time, some bandits proposed to rob Rune Town, which was hundreds of miles away, but was vetoed by the bandit leader. In his opinion, Rune Town has a population of thousands and a walled wall, and it is impossible to take it in a short time without siege weapons, and once the cavalry and naval army of the official army come to help, it will be difficult to retreat with all their bodies.

Just as the bandit leader was about to stop, a defector soldier from the Thunderbolt Army in the small fortress at the foot of the mountain came to the door. This gang of bandits belongs to the Yi people's hatred department, and this soldier is also a Yi people, a neighboring Yi Niang tribe, and the two sides have the same language and customs, so they are naturally very close. The defected soldier told the bandit leader that there was not only a large amount of food but also a lot of firearms and ammunition in the small fortress at the foot of the mountain, and that if the sneak attack was successful, the strength of the Void Hate Department would definitely increase. Seeing the suspicious eyes of the bandits, the defector soldier demonstrated with the firearm he was carrying. The bandit leader had seen firearms on the battlefield from afar, but now that he had seen them up close, he was very shocked in his heart, and he had heard that artillery was more powerful than muskets and grenades.

The bandit leader easily believed the soldier, so he immediately took away his firearms and grenades, and ordered several of his henchmen to escort him to the small fortress by night. The defector had a clear picture of the small fortress, where there were pits, where mines were laid, where there were outposts. Under his leadership, several bandits also infiltrated the fortress through the secret passages, and took away a lot of firearms, and even a few cans of wine. In order to protect the guards from the cold, the Thunderbolts provided all the posts in the alpine region with animal skin clothes and a small amount of wine. Yiren has good wine, and these good things will be let go there, so they will take the sheep back with their hands.

On the way back to the mountain, the bandits were so addicted to alcohol that they drank the jars of wine to the fullest, leaving only one jar to bring to the chief. The drunken mountain road was even more difficult, and when the group staggered to the bandits' den, they were already unstable on their feet. The bandits on the mountain smelled the smell of wine and saw a few people staggering, so they came to snatch the wine jar. These bandits were willing to give them wine, but in the chaos, they accidentally smashed the wine jar, so angry that the leader scolded, and the rest of the bandits who had already been gluttonous also beat their chests. Seeing the bad thing, these henchmen hurriedly said that there was still a lot of good wine in the fortress of the Thunderbolt army under the mountain. This sentence immediately aroused the taste of the bandits, and they asked the bandit leader to attack the fortress.

Although the bandit leader was also salivated by the smell of wine, it was obvious that the wine alone would not make him make up his mind to send troops. What made him excited was the firearms of the Thunderbolt Army, with powerful firearms, he could unify the Void Hate Department, and then unify the Rollos region, and even occupy the fat lands of the Han people. When the time comes, the territory will be larger, there will be more food, there will be more soldiers, and the leaders of those tribes will obediently bring beautiful women and treasures to the door. As for the amount of fine wine, it is even more so, and I don't know how many times it is moisturized than the current life of licking blood from the knife edge. Maybe he will live the same life as the king of Dali in the south and the emperor of the Han people in the north. Thinking of this, the bandit leader was even more excited, as if a beautiful day was just around the corner, close enough to be picked up.

He immediately ordered everyone to be fed, and when it was too late, he set out to attack the Thunderbolt fortress at the foot of the mountain. In the eyes of the bandits, he has more than 500 brave and skilled men, and the opponent has less than 30 men, plus he has mastered the weak links of the opponent's defense, and the night attack will inevitably surprise and break through the fortress of the Thunderbolt army in one fell swoop. Of course, in view of the powerful power of the Thunderbolt weapons, he decided to dispatch them all, and with a difference of more than ten times the number of people, he could consume the defenders to death by desperate human lives. In fact, if he decided to take only one group down the mountain, it would definitely trigger internal discontent and even mutiny. In the eyes of these bandits, the Thunderbolt fortress below the mountain is already in the bag, and they can grab more money and drink more wine when they go down the mountain. As for those who remain on the mountain, they may get a small share of the possessions, but don't even think about the wine. If you really want to drink it, then drink the northwest wind blowing from the top of the mountain.

In the middle of the night, the bandits quietly surrounded the fortress. There was silence in the fortress at this time, except for a few torches that were extinguished in the wind, and only two sentries were dozing. The bandit leader looked around again to see that there was nothing abnormal, and then ordered someone to ring the gong of attack. After the sound of the gong, the bandits rushed towards the small fortress with a roar. When there were still more than ten meters away from the fort wall, a series of loud noises rang out continuously, these loud noises came from under the feet, and more from above the fort wall - I don't know when it was already full of people. The smoke of the explosion had not yet dissipated, and the sound of shouting and killing sounded in all directions, the bandit leader had a bad heart, and turned to look at the Thunderbolt rebels of the Yi Niang Department who were with him, and he knew that this person had long since disappeared, obviously taking advantage of the chaos to escape.

The bandit leader knew what he was planning, turned around and fled in the direction of the bandit's den, and just touched the entrance of the road up the mountain, only to see another burst of fire and flash in front of him, and a large number of his subordinates fell down. The bandits rushed forward, but were blown up by the grenade and suffered even more casualties. Hou Xingzao led people to block the only road up the mountain, so he and hundreds of brothers lay in ambush in the wilderness for three days and two nights. Under the front and rear attacks, this group of Yiren bandits was completely annihilated, the bandit leader and dozens of bandits also died under the firearms, and those who did not die had a long hard labor waiting for them. As for the money and food on the mountain, all the money and food were seized by the Thunderbolt army.
