Three Kingdoms: My Wife Is Diao Chan

Chapter 251 Ask for the location of the cottage as soon as possible
Chapter 252 Ask for the location of the cottage as soon as possible
After discovering that this wave of thieves could obtain military standard ordnance, Cao Chong decided to block the news as much as possible.

If he didn't know that Guo He could bring so many soldiers out, Cao Chong regretted letting the officials of the three counties know about the bandit suppression incident.

"This wave of bandits won't be around for long. They will definitely not leave the stronghold behind. Before Guo He finds their stronghold, they will definitely go back."

Speaking of this, Cao Chong slapped his head, how stupid he is!

"Hurry up! Interrogate the bandits separately, and find out the location of the cottage as soon as possible!"

What are you going to do with Lu Xun?How good it is to copy the old nest directly!

Xia Houba immediately went down to interrogate. Last time Cao Chong taught him some interrogation skills, Cao Chong also interrogated himself this time.

After a while, Xia Houba and several officers in charge of interrogation came back.

The bandit's lair has been found!
Moreover, several parties testified and found that the bandit did not lie.

"I didn't expect that! These bandits actually built a safe nest in the depths of Mang Mountain!" Cao Chong exclaimed.

This time, not only did they find out the location of the cottage, but they also found out a lot of other information.

It turns out that the bandits not only built a cottage in the depths of Mang Mountain, but also their leaders and many bandits made their homes there, and even built it into a comfortable nest.

"Now I understand that the bandit's old nest is in a valley. The area of ​​the valley is not small. There is not only a military stronghold there, but also many fortifications built according to the terrain. There are also many residential houses and many acres of fields to grow crops. ,vegetable……"

After Cao Chong finished speaking, he sighed and said, "If it weren't for this group of people who made a living by robbery, this would be almost like an ordinary town. So many people settled down there, married wives and had children, and the bandits even built water conservancy facilities there. Someone is responsible for farming and raising livestock!"

"Young master, don't sigh, what do you say? Listen to what these bandits say, this valley is not easy to enter." Xia Houba was not interested in the living conditions in the valley.

"Besides, the ones caught this time are all bandits. Those leaders and those with higher status would rather die than surrender. I guess there are such diehards in the valley." Xia Houba said with a frown.

"Before Liu Ji senses something is wrong, it's a bit difficult to take down the bandit's lair! And there is another very important situation, these captured minions don't have the right to go to the back half of the valley, which is behind the mountain stronghold. , there must be many secrets." Cao Chong also had a headache.

"Didn't you say there is a cliff behind?"

"That's what I said, but these guys have never been there, I guess it's not that simple. Let's not talk about this, let's think about what to do."

"According to what the gangsters said, Liu Ji will be able to arrive at Tiger Cliff tomorrow afternoon. If he doesn't see the Sixth Master to reconcile with him the day after tomorrow, Liu Ji must know that something is wrong. He must either give up his old nest and run away, or leave Lu Xun behind. Hurry back to the cottage quickly. Although we have 800 people, there are 300 people in the valley. In addition, there are hundreds of people in the east who may have gone back. If you want to attack the valley in a short time, the casualties must be huge. It is better to wait for Guo He The troops from Lu Xun and Lu Xun have all arrived, surround them and fight slowly." Xia Houba was not reckless this time.

"No, when Liu Ji returns to the valley, there will be more than 800 bandits guarding the valley. It will be even more troublesome. We can't afford to waste time. Luoyang has a lot of things to do!"

"Why don't we block Liu Ji and kill Liu Ji with Lu Xun first, and then throw Liu Ji's head into the valley, it will be much easier."

Cao Chong shook his head: "Then Liu Ji has been in Mang Mountain for more than [-] years, and he is very familiar with the mountains and forests here. Even if we have a minion to lead the way, it will be difficult for us and Lu Xun to stop Liu Ji."

"Then I can't help it." Xia Houba spread his hands.

"You take a few minions who are familiar with the terrain to chase Lu Xun immediately, and let him try to hold Liu Ji as far as possible, and prevent him from rushing back to the village. The direction to return to the village is fixed. With the minions to guide the way, Lu Xun should be able to do it."

"Okay, Lu Xun hasn't been walking for long, and he will catch up soon, young master, where are you going to the cottage?"

"No, I'm going to go find Guo He. With the help of my servants, Guo He will come here much faster! After you and Lu Xun have clarified the situation, lead the troops to the front valley entrance of the valley, and wait for the reunion with Guo He. After I receive Guo He, Detour to the back of the valley."

"I only give you 200 people, which is not enough. You are asking Lu Xun for something. I will take the rest. I always feel that the focus is behind the valley!" Cao Chong ordered.

"Okay! 200 people are enough, and there are not many bandits."

Cao Chong and Xia Houba immediately divided their troops into two groups, each going his own way.

In order to hurry, Cao Chong directly sent more than a dozen teams of scouts to advance lightly, looking for the traces of Guo He in front of Cao Chong.

With the leading party, it is easy to use. Cao Chong promised a few minions that as long as they behave well, they can re-register their household registration after going out, change their names and surnames, and live like ordinary people. After hearing this, the minions are very hardworking.

Cao Chong also found out that the gangsters were forced by life to join bandits, and they didn't do anything harmful, and they were usually bullied among bandits. Give them a chance to change their ways. Nothing.

Guo He's whereabouts were discovered in the evening of the same day, and Cao Chong and Guo He successfully reunited the next morning.

"Young master still has a way. I found out where the den of thieves are so quickly. The old man is still searching a little bit!"

"It's just a coincidence. The main force of bandits is in the south. Of course, it's easier to get news. Guo Lingyin, you came from the east, but did you meet bandits?"

"I met you, two small groups, not many people, want to lead me around in the mountains, I sent two teams to deal with them." Guo He replied.

"That's good, it means that this group of bandits didn't return to the village, Guo Lingyin, now you lead a large group of people to the valley, and I will leave you two minions as guides."

"Young master, won't you go with me?"

"I'll go to the back of the valley to take a look to prevent any fish from slipping through the net. I have few people here, so I'll have to trouble Ling Yin to attack the stronghold."

"This is the old man's job. Be careful, young master. The old man will go right away."

Liu Ji's main force will be dealt with by Lu Xun. Once Guo He leads troops to encircle the valley, the task of entering the mountain to suppress the bandits is almost a foregone conclusion. Guo He has brought thousands of people, and it will definitely not take much to attack the valley. .

However, Cao Chong always feels that the cliffs behind the valley are the big story. Liu Ji has been a mountain king in Mangshan for more than 20 years. It is impossible to only build that one cottage, there must be other ways out!

After detouring for three days before reaching the cliff behind the valley, Cao Chong almost gave up!It wouldn't take long for Guo He to lead the troops to attack the cottage, counting the journey, it would take three or four days.

When he finally found the cliff behind the cottage, Cao Chong smiled.

Looks like you've come to the right place!
