Chapter 411 Gaochang Horse Bandits
#34;Hey, why haven’t you seen Qu Yong these days? #34;Yan Kai asked curiously.
In the past, Qu Yong would run towards him when nothing happened, but he hadn't seen him in the past few days, and he was still a bit unaccustomed to it.
"I heard that he is busy delivering water and cooking to the people at the construction site every day. He is very busy!" Cheng Huailiang said.
"So hard work?" Yan Kai nodded: "It seems that he can really be a good king!"
After saying that, he looked around and shouted: "Chengqian, come on, let's play cards!"
"No!" Li Chengqian rolled his eyes at Yan Kai: "You must have cheated. I lost to you last time. I sent sugar water to the construction site for three days, and my shoulders hurt!"
"Hey, I don't like hearing what you are saying!" Yan Kai yelled: "You shuffled the cards and dealt them, how could I cheat?"
"I won't come anyway. You said it yourself. You are cheating when you bet!"
Yan Kai was speechless. Is his credit already so low?
Although I sometimes cheat, I let these middle school boys know the truth of gambling and losing.
But the conscience of heaven and earth, he really did not cheat that day!
"No, something happened!" Cheng Hualiang rushed in at this time.
Yan Kai saw his serious expression and knew he was not joking.
"what happened?"
"A group of horse bandits suddenly appeared on the construction site of digging a karez. More than 20 workers were killed and more than 50 were injured!"
"What!!" Yan Kai was shocked: "Where did the horse bandits come from? How could they go directly to the karez construction site?"
"We don't know yet!" Cheng Huailiang shook his head and said, "Fortunately, Qu Yong went back to the camp to make sugar water for them and was not at the construction site."
"Now Quyong has taken their doctors from Gaochang to treat the injured workers."
"Then let's go over and bring all the first aid medicines!"
Yan Kai and Li Chengqian asked people to collect their things and hurried over.
"Abbas! Over here, someone over here needs to stop the bleeding!"
"Liu Gui, where is Liu Guiren? I just asked you to boil water and boil cloth. Are you still okay?"
"Ah! It hurts! Is my leg broken? Why can't I feel my leg?"
When several people arrived at the construction site, it was already in chaos.
Yan Kai directly found Qu Yong, who was as busy as a headless fly.
"Yan Zhixian!" Seeing Yan Kai, Qu Yong seemed to have seen a life-saving straw.
"Don't talk about anything else, save people first!"
Yan Kai waved his hand, and Kuo Dingjun's men began to disperse to save people.
During daily training for these soldiers, battlefield first aid is a must-learn subject.
The people in Gaochang who are injured here now all have external injuries, and they are all very experienced in this.
With the addition of Kuo Dingjun, the situation quickly stabilized.
Only then did Yan Kai have time to call Qu Yong aside.
"What's going on? Didn't I ask you to send people to patrol the border?" Yan Kai's words were a little annoyed.
Because there is Kuoding Army in Gaochang City, Qu Yong does not need to worry about safety.
So Yan Kai asked him to send all of his Gao Changjun troops who were not working to patrol nearby.
"I..." Qu Yong paused and whispered: "The ones I sent... are... some soldiers also want to make more money for their families. If they find me, I will..."
Yan Kai sighed.
Gao Changjun's income is higher than that of ordinary people. The wages paid at construction sites are now high, so many Gao Changjun who are sent out to patrol must also want to work at construction sites to earn more money for their families.
Fortunately, many of the people at the Karez construction site this time were Gaochang soldiers, and they also had high-quality tools provided by Yan Kai.
They organized resistance at the first opportunity, otherwise the casualties would never have been just this.
"There are still about five hundred horsemen outside Gaochang. These horse bandits shouldn't be able to escape their search!" Qu Yong said a little aggrievedly.
Gaochang State is not that big, and its border is not too long. In addition, it is mostly desert Gobi, and the sightline is very good when there are no sandstorms.
Therefore, the five hundred rangers patrolling outside should not let the horse bandits leak in.
"Did those horse bandits leave any clues?"
Yan Kai asked.
Gaochang is in a strategic location on the Silk Road. It is indeed possible to encounter horse bandits of all sizes when going out here.
But what do horse bandits do?
They are grabbing goods and money!
Except for some tools, there is nothing valuable on this karez construction site.
These horse bandits only injured people, and then burned two windmills used to drill wells, but did not steal anything. This in itself is very strange.
"We caught two of them!" Qu Yong slapped his forehead. Two unlucky ones escaped because some places on the construction site were dug into potholes.
The horse accidentally stumbled and fell down, and was caught by the people of Gaochang.
"Quick, go and bring this person here!"
Qu Yong ordered someone to bring the two prisoners over.
The two people were tied up tightly, but nothing could be seen from their appearance.
It's just the clothes of ordinary people here.
Cheng Huailiang and the others just went to inquire about all kinds of weapons used by these horse bandits.
If you just look at the appearance, it seems to be no different from ordinary horse bandits.
But again, the horse bandits couldn't afford to go early, so they came over, killed and injured several workers, and burned the windmill used to dig the well. What did they want?
"Tell me, where did you horse bandits come from?" Qu Yong asked someone to drag away one prisoner first, then went up and kicked the other horse bandit prisoner to the ground.
Then he pulled out a long knife and put it on his neck.
"We...we are the horse bandits from the north. I heard...I heard that you dug gold here, so I planned to come over and have a look..." the horse bandit said with some fear.
"Who told you that we dug gold here?" Qu Yong asked angrily.
"I just...don't know where the boss received the news."
Qu Yong was a little helpless. These horse bandits were so cooperative and they answered whatever they asked.
Including how many people there are, who is the boss, where is the temporary station this time, how did they get around here, all are what Qu Yong asked and said.
Qu Yong also caught another horse bandit, and after asking again, both of them gave exactly the same answer.
"There's something!" Yan Kai half-squinted his eyes and looked at the two prisoners from a distance.
"Brother Yan, I just asked the workers who were attacked, and they actually said that these horse bandits came only to hurt people and destroy windmills, and they didn't search for anything on the construction site."
Cheng Huailiang came over and said something, and then asked: "Brother Yan, do you suspect that they are not real horse bandits?"
"These horse bandits answer questions just like endorsements!" Yan Kai said: "And the answers of the two people can be said to be exactly the same. They even remember clearly how many people there are in total."
"Tell me, two ordinary horse bandits, how many people in their team can they remember in such detail?"
Yan Kai pointed at the two prisoners and said: "I remember the single digits clearly, and both of them remember it! There must be something wrong!"
"Then I'll go and interrogate it again!" Cheng Hualiang said and was about to go over.
"Wait a minute!" Yan Kai stopped him and said, "I'm afraid these two people have already been at odds with each other, so I might not be able to tell you this question, so let me do it!"
