Chapter 0201 Operational Research
"There's really no news from Longshan Academy nearby. They don't bother to come here."
Ruan Ba groaned: "However, outside Fuyuan City, about two hundred miles to the north, there is a Tiannan No. 1 Village, which belongs to the Qin family. I wonder if it's useful?"
"Okay, let's take it for the knife! You tell me the details Ruan Bugling, you sit down and say it's okay, I'm standing up, my neck hurts. Ling Yun beckoned and smiled.
"Thank you, Son! It's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, and the little one has the courage to sit down. ”
Ruan Ba sat down on a bamboo bench, owed half of his buttocks, and said with a smile: "Son, this No. 1 village in Tiannan, formerly known as Harrier Mouth Village, is very famous. Folklore, there is a harrier mouth village first, and then there is Fuyuan City. From then on, hundreds of miles to the north are lofty mountains, and the birds are sad, not to mention the people. There is only one valley leading to Guò, and there are thousands of miles to detour elsewhere. ”
Ruan Ba got up to refill Ling Yun's tea, and continued: "From this snake valley to guò, you must pass through a dangerous pass, called Harrier's Mouth. Like the sharp beak of a harrier eagle, hanging over the valley road, controlling this traffic artery. On this harrier's beak, the Qin family has a stockade, and the Qin family is called Zhuangzi. Collect tolls from passing pedestrians and business travelers. ”
"How's the income?" Ling Yun asked with great interest as he took a sip of tea.
"How to say it, to describe it as making money every day, it's far from enough. ”
Ruan Ba rubbed his hands and said with great envy: "It is said that the annual income of this level is one-tenth of the annual income of the Fire Tea Empire and one percent of the Wuji Empire!"
"Good girl, so powerful?!" Ling Yun couldn't help but exclaim.
"It's not amazing, it can be called the first village in Tiannan!" Ruan Ba salivated and sucked hard.
"Okay, the more powerful, the better! Tomorrow, I'll let this Tiannan No. 1 Village disappear!" Ling Yun clenched his fists and sneered through gritted teeth.
"Son, you have to think twice! In this village, there are not ordinary people, they are all strong in martial arts. I heard that there is also a great monk in the town. It's not easy to provoke!"
Ruan Ba was dissuaded with a frightened face: "For thousands of years, no one has dared to fight the idea of this Zhuangzi! Even the Fire Tea Empire, if it starts a war with the Wuji Empire, they don't dare to touch this Zhuangzi!"
"Hehe, for thousands of years, has there ever been a public enemy like me?" Ling Yun asked with a smile.
"Not really. Also, if you are an extraordinary enemy, you have to deal with extraordinary people."
Ruan Ba groaned: "Perhaps, you are the person sent by the heavens to deal with the Qin family and Longshan!"
"Alright. Not to mention that it's useless. Brother Ruan, do you have many brothers in this area?" Ling Yun smiled.
"There are a few, but I'm afraid none of them will be of great use. Ruan Ba looked at Ling Yun suspiciously.
"Don't worry. I don't need you to do anything. I was thinking that since this Zhuangzi's income is so good, the gold and silver treasures in the Zhuangzi will definitely not be less. I want you to find some people to carry the gold and silver treasures when the time comes. Ling Yun smiled lightly.
"Childe, can you wait a few days, wait for me to mobilize some masters and help you do it, okay?" Ruan Ba said hesitantly.
"Brother Ruan, just put your heart in your stomach and prepare to carry the gold and silver treasures!"
Ling Yun smiled with confidence: "If I can't even take down such a small village, how dare I talk about starting a war against Longshan Academy? You gather people and horses, wait outside the stockade, and as long as you see a fire burning in the stockade, you will hurry in to carry the gold and silver treasures." Remember, whatever treasure you have, give half of it to the poor!"
"Son, can you not set fire to it first? Fuyuan City is only ten miles away from Harrier's Mouth Village, and the masters in the army will be able to arrive soon. Ruan Ba blinked his little eyes and reminded.
"Yes. It is indeed not my wish to go to war with the emperor. In your opinion, how should I inform you?" Ling Yun asked with a nod.
"The little one follows the child. After the big victory of the prince, the small one released the pigeons. Ruan Ba replied.
"Do you know how to fly, do you have stealth?" Ling Yun asked unceremoniously.
"No, no. Ruan Ba shook his head awkwardly.
"That's not the end of it. Such a large village must have 1,800 people, to say the least. We can't go head-to-head with them, we can only sneak attack. Can't fly, stealth is useless. ”
Ling Yun smiled: "Give me the pigeons, and when the time comes, I will let you know when the pigeons are released." ”
"Childe knows how to stealth, so you can rest assured that you are so small. ”
Ruan Ba chuckled in surprise, got up and took a bamboo tube and handed it to Ling Yun.
Ruan Ba smiled and said, "Son, in this bamboo tube, there are specially trained pigeons. In the arms, it is not affected in any way when fighting. Just release it then. ”
Ling Yun took the pigeon, put it in his arms, and asked with a smile, "How long will it take for you to arrive?"
"Although we people don't know how to fly, we can travel hundreds of miles a day. Coupled with the time to recruit people, you will be able to reach the vicinity of Harrier's Mouth Village by tomorrow night at the latest. ”
"Don't be in too much of a hurry. Gather more people, and the morning after tomorrow, before the two countries switch, just arrive. I estimate that in this village, there are valuable things. If there are fewer people, it will be a pity if you can't carry them all!" Ling Yun said with a smile.
"Don't worry, Son, we are tired and vomit blood, and we won't give them a single hair left!" Ruan Ba patted his chest.
"Are there any of you in Fuyuan City?" Ling Yun asked.
"Yes. You're like this," Ruan Ba confessed.
"Farewell!" Ling Yun clenched his fists in salute, and the person disappeared.
Ruan Ba saw Ling Yun use the stealth technique, and he was overjoyed to return the salute indiscriminately, and his confidence doubled.
Ling Yun did not rush to Harrier's Mouth Village, but crossed the mountains and went directly to Fuyuan City.
He wants to find out what the situation is in Fuyuan City. Don't let him, a praying mantis, catch cicadas in front, if there is a master in Fuyuan City, give him a yellow finch behind, and it will be miserable.
Fuyuan City is a stone city with high walls and thick walls. But it's not a big barrier.
The banner at the head of the city fell, and the bucket was empty. However, the city gate was tightly checked, but it was just a soldier guarding the gate, in order to extort money from pedestrians and merchants.
Ling Yun's heart was half relieved. It can be concluded that there are no important people in the city, at least for now. If not, the guard would not be so lax.
The city is not big, but it is very prosperous. There are many shops and people. Although the tax toll is very harsh, the rising tide still lifts all boats, and the benefits are still large, and the merchants flock to it.
Ling Yun still gave Ruan Ba's explanation, and ran directly to the wizard hall in the city.
In the southern part of the Wuji Empire, wizards and witches are a great force. In many densely populated places, there are guild halls. And this force is mostly the subordinates of the Divine Witch Cave.
The Wizard's Hall is easy to find, and is usually one of the liveliest and most mysterious places in the area.
