After Tao Qian occupied Pei County, he encircled and suppressed the bandits in all parts of the county.
Some bandits chose to surrender and put on Xuzhou battle clothes.
A small number of the old Yellow Turbans were unwilling to surrender to the official army, so they hid everywhere and launched a guerrilla war with the Xuzhou army.
The horse bandits who hid in Weishan were the former Yellow Turbans.
Lin Feng knew that this battle must be won cleanly.
There were only five or six hundred horse bandits, so it was not difficult.
Secondly, he also needs to use this battle to let Mi Fang understand where his own value lies.
These days, who doesn't want to recruit a few more highly skilled and capable soldiers who can lead troops to fight?
The height of Weishan Mountain is average, but the mountain is continuous, and there are more than a dozen ridges criss-crossing, and the roads in the mountain are intricate.
The horse bandits just took a fancy to the convenience of hiding in Weishan, so they set up a base here.
Lin Feng and Mi Fang led the army and saw Weishan Mountain from a distance, so they ordered their family members to set up camp, fearing that if they got closer, they would easily startle the snake.
While the army was burying pots for cooking, Lin Feng deliberately came to Mi Fang.
"Second Master Mi, our eyes are dark at this moment, and we don't know the situation in Weishan at all. Why don't I go into the mountain to meet the horse bandits in person as the contact person of the Mi family, and also scout the mountain by the way. Case."
After listening to Lin Feng's suggestion, Mi Fang was a little dazed.
Before setting off, Mi Zhu once told Mi Fang in private, and at that time, he said that after Mi Fang arrived in Weishan, he asked Lin Feng to go to the Weishan bandit cave for some reason, so as to test Lin Feng's courage.
Unexpectedly, before Mi Fang could open her mouth, Lin Feng would bring it up by himself.
"Old Guan, you will be in danger if you come here, aren't you afraid that the horse bandits will take you as a hostage?"
"Haha, there are only a few hundred horse bandits in the area, and they really don't let Guan look at me. Besides, even if I get caught by the bandits by mistake, isn't there a second master out there who can redeem me with money?"
"That's right, you go to the bandit's nest boldly, our Mi family doesn't have much else, and now we are so poor that we only have money left."
So after lunch, Lin Feng took Guan Ping and two other servants, and a group of four walked towards Weishan on foot.
The reason why she never rode a horse was because Mi Fang was reluctant.
War horses were abundant in the north, but war horses in Xuzhou were extremely precious. Mi Fang was afraid that if Lin Feng and the others were captured by horse bandits, they would be able to redeem them with money, but the war horses would be given away for nothing.
Guan Ping followed Lin Feng eagerly.
It is natural for young people to be brave and ruthless, and they like to show off in front of others.
Following Lin Feng during this period, Guan Ping's own martial arts improved rapidly, even Lin Feng praised more than once, this kid was born for fighting.
It's just that although Guan Ping can also feel the increase in force, he has no reference to follow Lin Feng, so he can't prepare to measure the increase.
The value that Lin Feng uses to measure Guan Ping is how many kicks he needs every day to knock Guan Ping over.
After arduous efforts, Guan Ping has now reached the seventh foot.
Guan Ping thought, he can't be kicked all day long, it's time to find the horse bandits to try, Guan Xiaoye's ax is no longer sharp.
Not long after entering Weishan, a loud arrow flew towards Lin Feng's feet with a puff.
Guan Ping looked at the trembling arrow that was still ringing every day, leaned into Lin Feng's ear and said, "Master, these horse bandits probably don't have much ability. This loud arrow was shot from behind a tree fifty steps away. It shows that their strength is small and their bows are weak, and they cannot open a hundred-step bow."
Lin Feng gave Guan Ping a sideways glance.
Are you kidding me, do you think hundred step bows are everywhere?That is a weapon in the army, a group of ordinary horse bandits, where can they get it?
Ignoring Guan Ping, Lin Feng pretended to be afraid, and raised his hands above his head: "My lords, I come from Mi's family in Xiapi, and I came here for Mi's guest in the cottage. Please don't hurt me, my lords." Let me wait, the Patriarch has agreed to pay money to redeem him."
Soon, two culprits turned out from behind the tree in the distance.
When Lin Feng saw the two people who appeared, his pupils suddenly dilated, and he couldn't believe his eyes.
Chapter 326
It wasn't that Lin Feng made a fuss, but that the two bandits were dressed in the regular uniform of the Yellow Turban Army. Not only did they wrap their heads with yellow scarves, but they also wore slightly worn uniforms on their bodies.
This horse bandit is actually the real yellow scarf.
This is rare.
You must know that only the Yellow Turban Army that followed the three brothers Zhang Jiao, Zhang Liang, and Zhang Bao could be called the regular army.
In the minds of most people, the Yellow Turban Zhengbu no longer exists in this world. They either died on the battlefield, or were captured by the government and executed according to the law.
But now Lin Feng found the remnants of the yellow scarves in Weishan. It's so strange. How did they survive the siege and suppression by the government in the past few years?
The two Yellow Turban soldiers, one in front and one behind, slowly approached Lin Feng and the others keeping a safe distance.
The Yellow Turban soldier walking in front was thin and thin. If it weren't for the wrinkles on his face, Lin Feng would have regarded him as a child.
The Yellow Turban Army in the rear was far away from Lin Feng, holding a longbow in both hands, staring at the front vigilantly, as if they would open their bows and shoot arrows at any time.
"People from the Mi family, did you bring any money?"
Lin Feng smiled obsequiously: "Your Majesty, do you want us to see if our family members are still there? We won't take out the money if we don't see anyone."
This request is very reasonable. Before buying and paying for the goods, the buyer needs to inspect the goods, not to mention kidnapping.
If the kidnappers have already torn up the ticket, wouldn't it be a waste of money if they rushed to pay the money?
The thin yellow scarf soldier turned his head to look at his bow-wielding companion, the bow-holding yellow scarf pondered for a moment, waved it and said, "Ma San, go back and inform Shuai Qu, and bring the Mi family here for them to inspect."
Lin Feng also deliberately pretended to be cautious and said to Guan Ping: "Ping'er, you go and inform the second master, our family members will be brought here in a while, and let him prepare to send someone to check."
Holding the bow and the yellow scarf, he stared alertly: "Why, do you still have people ambush outside?"
Lin Feng almost went over to give him a slap.
Listen, this is human talk. The two parties agreed to use money to redeem people. The four of us came here empty-handed. If there is no one outside to answer, where will the money be placed?
Just pile it up on the side of the road?
"My lord, the second master of my family is guarding the money cart not far away. Isn't he afraid of losing money?"
Holding the bow and yellow scarf, Lin Feng was sure that there were indeed people from the Mi family outside the mountain, and immediately retreated quickly, and shouted sharply: "Stand still and don't move, but if there is a slight movement, don't blame the bow and arrow in my hand for not recognizing people .”
Guan Ping looked at Lin Feng in embarrassment: "Master, then should I go out to report the news?"
Lin Feng waved his hand to Guan Ping, motioning him to leave as soon as possible, took a step forward and said: "My lord, when we entered the mountain, my second master said that if we did not contact each other after entering the mountain, he would take someone back to Xiapi, so as not to appear. What a mistake."
