Chapter 184: The Tale of the Bandits in Meridian Mountain (I)

"Ming Gong, you are wronged." Feng Mu shouted.

There was another death, and this murder was born in Huachi County.

Listening to Feng's mother's account of the case, Wang Ju said: "Qiu County Lieutenant, take a few arresters and complainants, and immediately follow me to Fengjiazhuang." ”

Fengjiazhuang is in the easternmost part of Fengchuan Town, which is already close to the depths of Meridian Mountain, so it is a little far away from Huachi Town. At this time, the constraints of traffic became apparent, and by the time Wang Ju and his party arrived at Fengjiazhuang, it was already dark.

Wang Ju inspected the scene with resentment.

Song Ci is a native of the Southern Song Dynasty, and Wang Ju has not read the book "Records of Grievances". However, there is also a way to decide the case at this time.

Before the weather was cool, the corpse smelled slightly, but Wang Ju took his head, so he had to endure the smell of the corpse to check it.

The case is very similar to Zhao Dutou, it was at night, the gangsters sneaked into the house, killed Feng Yuanwai and his wife unknowingly, and then took away the family's valuables.

But unlike Zhao Dutou, Wang Ju quickly asked a clue, the location of Fengjiazhuang is a little biased, but in front of it is a mountain road, from this mountain road over the Meridian Mountain, it is Yinzhou, so it is also an important road for private businessmen.

The bandit named Yang Si in the mountains had sent someone to Fengjiazhuang a few days ago, and Feng's mother couldn't tell what was going on, but he knew that he talked with his son in the secret room for a while, and then broke up unhappily.

It may have been done by Yang Si, or it may not have been.

The county lieutenant Qiu dragged Wang Ju aside and whispered: "This case should be cautious in the county. ”

"How?"

"It's about Yang Si who did it, I heard that the case of the Zhao and Li families in Gyeongju also has some eyebrows, and it seems to be related to this Yang Si."

"Why didn't Sun Gong send troops to arrest him?"

"Wang Zhixian, look at this mountain."

The mountains are vast, the forests are deep and the leaves are lush, the evening breeze blows, and the waves sound like the sea.

"It's a little difficult," Wang Ju muttered.

How easy is it to find a group of bandits in such a big mountain? Why does the imperial court tolerate many ugly behaviors of Kui Xiaman, not because they are powerful, but mainly because of this mountain and this forest, which is not easy to exterminate. There is also Meishanman on Jinghu South Road, who repeatedly sent people down the mountain to plunder, the imperial court sent troops, and several generations of emperors sent troops and won, but as a result, for example, Pan Shu brought countless people and horses, but only broke dozens of villages, and could not go deeper, so he came back in a hurry.

"Also, as far as I know, this Feng Yuanwai has colluded with the bandits in the mountains, half people and half bandits, and has done a lot of rebellious things, just relying on the mountains, and mostly related to private businessmen, the government can't find clues, so they have to stop it."

"Is this the retribution of evil for the wicked?" Wang Ju smiled.

"Sort of."

"It seems that Zhao Dutou and Li Yuanwai can also be regarded as wicked people with evil retribution."

"Wang Zhixian, that's different, Li Yuanwai is a big family in Gyeongju City, and it turns out that Sun Gong has a soft temperament, and he has been investigating that case, otherwise he can't pay to all the big families in Gyeongju City."

"What do you think?"

"Report it to Sun Gong, and Sun Gong will handle it."

"What if Sun Gong doesn't send troops?"

"That's for the best."

"But then, what will happen in the future?" Wang Juwei said clearly. In the future, there will be private goods, this time the private goods are different from the previous private goods, and the funds obtained are used to buy horses, buy armor and weapons, and improve the food treatment of soldiers. Is it possible to bribe a group of bandits like other businessmen?

"Wang Zhixian, look at this mountain again."

"It's a bit of a headache, let me think about it again." Wang Ju said with his chin tilted.

Lieutenant Qiu breathed a sigh of relief.

But only two days later, the eldest son of Quan Er hurried back from Gyeongju City: "Zhang Tuiguan has arrested Zhang Kai's wife. ”

"It's so fast, brother hostage, you're going to embarrass me." Wang Judao.

He immediately left Huachi Town and found Li Sangou: "What about that wild dragon?" ”

Li Sangou called the wild dragon Basheng, and Wang Ju said: "Uncle Sangou confessed to you, do you remember?" ”

"Remembered."

"This is done, you come to me and be my guest."

"The little ones have their families."

"Who else is in your family?"

"An old wife, two sons who are not angry."

"How old is my son?"

"Seventeen for the big, fifteen for the small."

"Have you started a family?"

"Not yet."

"Come over too, do chores for me, take the time to read some books with your son, and know a few words."

"I haven't thanked the magistrate yet," Li Sangou kicked away.

"Okay."

"Come with me to Liyuan Castle."

…………

"You say it carefully." Yao said.

Sun Wei did have a reason to hesitate, it was not easy to go into the mountains to suppress bandits, so Yao Yu had to ask clearly.

"Here's the map I made."

Yao Ji took it over and watched.

The Black Dragon Village is located in the depression of the two mountains of the Black Dragon Peak, and a river in front of it runs northeast to Huachi Water. There are cliffs on both sides of the Black Dragon Peak, and if you want to go up the mountain, you must pass through the Black Dragon Village. There was a rough path behind, but Yang Si had set up a sentry post on the top of the mountain. It is truly a treacherous place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

"How many men do they have?"

"About a hundred."

Yao Ji frowned even more, nearly a hundred people were enough to be able to use this terrain to defend. It can be attacked, but can this sacrifice be afforded?

If it is surrounded, the surrounding area is a vast forest, and there is a steep slope under the wall, if you want to besiege it on both sides, you must send at least nearly a thousand soldiers and horses. However, there is another mountain stream gurgling down in the village, as long as the food is sufficient, it will not be a problem to hold on for a year and a half. Do you want a thousand soldiers and horses to stay in that mountain for a year and a half?

"General Yao, the little one has taken a closer look, if you are agile and send a few people with ropes, you can still climb up from the cliff on the west side, and there are no bandits stationed on the west peak, if you climb the west peak and then put down the rope, you can send dozens of agile people to climb up and take down the bandits in that outpost, and the ambush soldiers will go up from the back mountain, condescendingly, you can take down this group of bandits."

"Have you figured it out?"

"The little detective was clear, and he was also scared into a cold sweat, and he was almost noticed by them, but they had gathered in Heilongzhai for several years, and the officers and soldiers did not move, and they were a little careless."

"A little careless?" Yao Ji chewed on this sentence.

If you want to exterminate this group of bandits, you must be fast, and once it appears, then it will be difficult to give birth.

"You go down first."

The wild dragon bleats down.

"Wangzhi County ......"

"Don't ask me, I must be willing to exterminate this group of mountain bandits, otherwise they think I'm young and easy to bully, even if I start a private business, maybe something will happen. Besides, it is clear that we are all businessmen and private businessmen, but in fact we are also involved, do we have to pay protection money to the mountain bandits? ”

"Protection money?" Yao Ji couldn't help laughing.

"And I have been studying with my teacher for more than two years, and there has not been a single homicide in the entire Yunyan County. If you don't stand up, you can't do it. It just so happens that Yao Patrol is training for you, and it is also an opportunity for actual combat training. ”

These three reasons are enough to send troops.

In fact, there is no case of Hu Qian, and Wang Ju also plans to use a certain group of mountain bandits to establish power.

And there are also some foundations, some time ago, Wang Ju and Yao Ji carefully discussed how to train soldiers.

The first is to continue to train troops according to the methods of the previous Song Dynasty, and the second is to put forward some new ideas put forward by Wang Ju.

For example, continuous training, field warfare is inevitable, even if it is a defensive war, it is also necessary to fight in the field, send troops out to counterattack, otherwise blindly be beaten passively, sooner or later the fort will be breached. The most typical example is Zhang Xun Xu Yuan's defense of Juyang, if it weren't for a lone army guarding Juyang, these two people would be immortal.

There are also ambush battles, and even more field battles.

The most important thing is a strong scout team. This was not reminded by Zhang Qi, Wang Ju had already thought of it. Zhang Qi hadn't swung the scout to the extreme, it was the Mongol army that had swung to the extreme.

Therefore, Yao Ji selected more than 100 soldiers and deliberately used them to train them as scouts, and the requirements were very strict, not only were they agile, but they also had to be elves, their martial arts should not be weak, and their eyesight should be good.

These exercises include some scout exercises, climbing, swimming, ambushing, and hiding.

It's time for inspection.

"Then slash!" Yao Ji patted the table and said.

"How have you been training during this time?"

Unlike the previous military training, this time it was a real military training.

"It's okay for this time, but I'm still worried, now I can eat meat almost every other day, and everyone's morale is strong, but I get used to it, and this morale goes down. If Wang Zhixian's follow-up plan can't keep up, it will be a bit difficult to do at that time. ”

There is military law in the army, but now it is load training, if the soldiers are not happy together, is it to enforce military law?

"Don't worry, this will be soon."

"By the way, what about the armor?"

"It should be soon," Wang Ju said hesitantly. This must be agreed by the imperial court, and bear the main cost, otherwise will the Huachi battalion soldiers really be raised together? But I don't know why, so far there has been no news from the imperial court, is it because of the beginning of the Puyi dispute, and a few bigwigs in Zhongshu really have no heart to do things?

Wang Ju thought for a while, and then had a flash of inspiration and said, "But this time the bandits may have something to gain." ”

"Yes, I believe that this group of rabbits will be very happy then." Yao Ji said happily.

Wang Ju said in his heart: I believe that Sun Wei may be happy when the time comes, and he has no right to ask Han Qi and Ouyang Xiu, but Sun Wei can do it.

Soon the team assembled, and the "training" began again. The three battalions of soldiers and horses of Liyuan Fort and the two battalions of soldiers and horses of Pingrong Town marched towards Fengchuan Town.

During this time, the Song army in Huachi County often practiced, and everyone was not surprised.

Wang Ju rode on the horse and said: "Yao Inspection, yes, it looks much better than when I first came to Huachi County." ”

"Wang Zhixian, if it can be maintained, it won't take long, and I will be able to train them into an iron army in a year."

"The Forbidden Army still looks a little weaker."

"It's okay, there are Fanluo and Baojie, besides, Wang Zhixian plans to organize a larger Fanluo, if those strongmen can be trained together, it will be better."

Wang Ju shook his head.

Xinfanluo can play a dozen touch-and-touch balls, but if he does it to all the strong men and horses, it may cause a backlash from the imperial court, not because he is afraid of him, but because of the appearance of an army of Tibetans in Huachi that cannot be suppressed. But his meaning is different from Yao Ji, the main army of the imperial court is still the forbidden army, the forbidden army is not strong, and the Song Dynasty is still a weak Song Dynasty!

The march of Lalian was very fast, and it was forced by his good friend Zhang Zhifu, and Wang Juqi was a little crying and laughing when he thought of it on his horse.
