Chapter 662: Fanwai Heroes And Girls (9)
Ningxia Wei was also poor in the past, but because of the business of Wujiabao, many horse traders and individuals still come here every year.
When they come here, they have to eat and stay, so they inevitably have to consume, so they support a group of people.
But Wujiabao is also very domineering, and there are also many people who died because of it and people who lost their homes.
In the past, there were bandits in the White Tiger Stream, but the real trouble was after the collapse of Wujiabao. Now there are several groups of bandits hiding in the mountains that were pulled up by people from Wujiabao.
The county magistrate of Ningxia Wei wanted to suppress the bandits, so he sent hundreds of people to assist, and only when he entered the mountain did he know how powerful and rampant the bandits were in the mountains.
He always wanted to exterminate them, but there were only 5,000 troops stationed at the border, and he had to guard against the Tartars, how could he dare to send them all into the mountains?
And there are few people, so it is impossible to surround the bandits if you enter the mountains. If the encirclement is not dense enough, the bandits will easily get into the woods and never find them again.
In addition, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack in the mountains, and you must have double the strength to attack. The soldiers under his command are very precious, and he is reluctant to take them into the mountains to fill this hole. So seeing the bandit rampant, he couldn’t do anything about it.
However, he has finally managed to open up the mutual market in Ningxiawei. In the future, Ningxiawei’s business travel will increase. If he has enough money to suppress the bandits, he can borrow a batch of military equipment from Yan’an Prefecture, and then recruit some aliens. As a guide, the hunter might really be able to exterminate those bandits in the mountains.
Even if they cannot be completely eliminated, the number of people must be reduced so that they will not dare to act rashly.
Otherwise, the business trips that come to the mutual market will be robbed. Who would dare to come to Ningxia Wei to do business in the future?
Then why did he waste so much energy fighting for the qualification of this mutual market?
Bai Yitang was one of the foreigners he liked, and because he was a bandit leader as soon as he took action, and he brought so many business travelers to break out of the bandits’ encirclement, he valued him very much.
When he knew the identity of the other party, he was stunned for a moment, but thinking about his plan, he still gritted his teeth and revealed all the information he had collected. The big deal was that he would lead the team in person, take care of him when the time came, and try not to let him Injury is. Mrs. Gu shouldn’t blame him too much, right?
When he marked the collected information on the map and said it was almost the same, the colonel also hurried over with his military division.
The military advisor carefully looked at Bai Yitang and Qin Wenyin, and reminded General Yuan with a smile: “General, it’s getting late, why don’t we invite Bai Daxia and Mrs. Bai to the table first, and we can talk about it after dinner.”
“Yes yes yes, look at me, patronize and talk, forget that you only arrived at Ningxia Wei, haven’t you eaten yet?”
General Yuan smiled and was about to invite the two of them to move to a side hall for dinner. The military advisor smiled and pulled General Yuan, and asked the captain to lead them there.
Bai Yitang and Qin Wenyin smiled and went with the captain, leaving the space to the two of them.
“How’s it going?” General Yuan asked in a low voice, “Does the military advisor think they look like Mr. Gu’s parents?”
“I haven’t seen Mrs. Gu, how do I know if it looks like it?” The military officer stared, but seeing the general’s sweaty face, he couldn’t help but soften his heart and couldn’t help but whisper: “It’s not that they drove a car. Is there a strange carriage coming, the general might as well let them live in the general’s mansion, and let me take a look at their carriage.”
“You can tell who they are by looking at the carriage?”
“I can’t be sure, but I can always guess something,” the sergeant glared at him again and said, “If you didn’t see a capable person and pull back to the barracks, why would we be so passive?”
General Yuan stared in disapproval, but the military advisor continued without waiting for him to speak: “I have an official in the capital in the same year, but he told me about the Gu family. It is said that Gu’s mother remarried, but she Married to his wife’s master, so it is considered a family entering the house, and his mother did not move out of the Gu Mansion.”
“Doesn’t Mrs. Gu live in Qin Mansion?”
The military advisor ignored him and said to himself: “It’s not a secret that Mrs. Gu’s parents have been playing outside. I heard that Mrs. Gu even made them a very comfortable carriage, and now many wealthy families in the capital are rushing to buy it. That kind of carriage can often cost more than a thousand taels.”
General Yuan was speechless, “Is this a carriage or a golden carriage, it’s too expensive.”
The strategist sneered, “So as long as you have seen the carriage, although it is not very accurate, you can still judge with 80% certainty. Besides, they always have to lead the way when they go out, and if they want to apply for a special pass, they will need proof of identity. When the time comes, the two images will naturally know the truth and the fake.”
General Yuan nodded.
“But just in case, I still took pictures of them and sent them to Beijing to ask.”
General Yuan nodded again and again, “The strategist understands me. I came to you just to have a portrait of you.”
The special customs clearance document has no other major effect, that is, you don’t have to check when you leave the customs, which means that you can carry things.
It doesn’t matter if it’s a big deal, or a small one, but it’s not too small. When there’s nothing wrong, it’s not big, but when there’s something wrong, it can pierce the sky.
Who knows what Bai Yitang and the others will carry in their car? If some goods are returned, but if Daqi is a secret, then General Yuan, he will not be enough to apologize.
Therefore, special customs clearance documents need to be cautious, at least General Yuan has not issued such a thing for so many years as a general.
Being able to not live in the inn, Bai Yitang naturally couldn’t get it, thinking that he couldn’t bring Qin Wenyin with him when he followed people into the mountains, it was naturally safer to live in the General’s Mansion. So Bai Yitang agreed and brought Qin Wenyin to live in.
Bai Yitang knew that they wanted to verify his identity and gave them time. After all, this is a border crossing, and some aspects are a hundred times stricter than the Central Plains.
But there is no need to wait for the bandit suppression. Bai Yitang suggested that the sooner the better, because there will be more business trips here recently, and a quick decision can save more lives.
General Yuan took people to collect some bandit-suppression taxes with the merchants, and then took the previous savings and rented a batch of armaments from the Yan’an Prefecture before heading into the mountains.
General Yuan has long wanted to suppress the bandits, so of course he was not completely unprepared. At least he has found the approximate location of several bandit dens in the mountains, but the mountains are high and the forests are dense, making it easy to get lost, easy to defend and difficult to attack.
So General Yuan thought about it and wanted to lure the bandits out of the mountains, first to suppress a wave outside, and then enter the mountain to suppress a wave.
And being able to let the bandits in the mountains out of the mountain is naturally because of the big fat sheep. General Yuan started to make arrangements as early as a month ago, and people let out rumors that the Shan merchant Li family wanted to transport a batch of silk satin and tea to Ningxia Wei, the value of Hundreds of thousands of taels.
The Li family is very famous in Jin. General Yuan borrowed the three shopkeepers from their family to **** them, so the bandits in the mountains would not doubt it.
And the caravan is naturally all his soldiers in disguise, when the time comes to attack from inside and outside.
“Good strategy,” Bai Yitang whispered: “As long as they are fooled, I’m afraid that this battle will be able to exterminate many bandits, and even if they enter the mountains without harvesting, they can still hit them hard. With such a good strategy, you still need me to do it. what?”
General Yuan and Bai Yitang whispered: “Bai Daxia doesn’t know anything, several of these bandits came from the former Wujiabao, and their skills are very good. The reason why Baihujian is flooded with bandits is because they are taking the lead. If If you don’t kill those few people, even if all the bandits are wiped out, they will still be able to bring back a group of bandits later.”
“My soldiers all learn the ability to fight and kill the enemy. There is nothing to do with these Jianghu people who have practiced martial arts since childhood and have internal support.” General Yuan sighed: “If I can use enough people, then I will still It can be said that more ants kill elephants, and random arrows can kill them, but Ningxia Guard must have 3,000 people stationed here, plus those who have to patrol outside, I can call only 1,500 people in the end.”
General Yuan said in a low voice: “And these people have to divide their troops into three groups, and the team that enters the mountain will occupy most of them…”
In the end, it was General Yuan who had a big heart and was reluctant to let go of the bandits in the mountains. He wanted to kill them all, but they were at a disadvantage when they entered the mountains, and they had to bring enough manpower.
So the people who stay outside are very important, especially the people who “escort the goods” with the three storekeepers of the Li family. If the bandits who came out of the mountain escaped and returned to the mountain, they would have lost all their efforts.
General Yuan stared at Bai Yitang and said, “Master Bai, this is why I have gone to great lengths to find these capable people.”
“You advertised it so widely that you are not afraid that the bandits will notice?”
“Of course not. The bandits in the White Tiger Stream don’t know that I want to kill them all the time?” General Yuan said confidently: “But I’m sure no one will know when we will do it.”
This strategy was offered by the military division. Only General Yuan, the school captain, and the military division knew about this strategy, and now there is one more Bai Yitang.
The reason why General Yuan told Bai Yitang was because he hoped that Bai Yitang could go to Yan’an House and set off for Baihujianlai with shopkeeper Li San.
At that time, there will be a big killer in the bait.
“But when you move troops, the bandits won’t notice?”
“Don’t worry about this white hero, we have our own way to hide people’s eyes and ears.”
As for the method, of course General Yuan would not tell Bai Yitang, because it involved the secrets of the Ningxia Guard Barracks.
Bai Yitang didn’t ask any more questions. He nodded as an answer, “Since I won’t go into the mountain, I’ll take my wife with me.”
General Yuan frowned, “Why put Madam Bai in a dangerous place? It’s better to let her stay in the General’s Mansion, and you can rest assured that my people are watching.”
Bai Yitang shook his head. He has been in the arena since he was a child, and he has seen and heard a lot of this kind of thing, and Qin Wenyin is his weakness. , the time stretched too long, how could he rest assured.
Although he is dangerous with her, at least under his nose, he will not let her have an accident.
General Yuan naturally couldn’t agree. If Bai Yitang took Qin Wenyin away, his trust in him would be compromised.
Bai Yitang’s face turned cold, and said, “It will take two days to go to Yan’an Prefecture quickly, and you are not sure when the caravan will depart from Yan’an Prefecture, and you are not sure when it will arrive at Baihu Stream. This trip will take at least six It’s impossible for me to let my wife stay here alone for six days.”
“Mrs. Bai has so many people watching at the General’s Mansion, why don’t you feel relieved? Is there a safer place in Ningxia Wei than the General’s Mansion? With her, the sword has no eyes, what if it hurts?”
“Either I’ll take her or I’ll change teams into the mountain.” The team entering the mountain only needs to leave on the same day, and if they are quick, they can come back on the same day.
General Yuan was so angry that he didn’t expect Bai Yitang to be so stubborn, “She’s not your mother, and you don’t want to be breastfeeding. What happened to you for a few days?”
Bai Yitang said lightly: “It will kill people.”
