Da'an's best son-in-law

Chapter 61 Gourd Mouth

Ye Chen's fingers froze in mid-air, signaling for everyone to stop their movements for the time being. He stared at Wang Yan with interest and said, "You might as well talk about it. If I think the value is enough, maybe I can let you go."

When the spies reported the news of the attack on the caravan, Ye Chen subconsciously thought that it was Mo Feng's gang who attacked the Wei family's caravan at the mass grave, so he hurriedly led everyone there.

After all, although bandits are rampant in the Nanliang Mountains, the caravans of the four major families are generally heavily guarded, so they cannot take advantage of them.

After arriving at the scene, Ye Chen learned from Zhang Yan that it was not Mo Feng's people who came to loot the Wei family's caravan this time, but Wang Yan from the Black Wind Village.

Mo Feng's people are probably still on the sidelines, waiting for an opportunity.

Wang Yan pointed at the many bandits behind him, and said with some difficulty: "Can you let them go first, and then I will inform you about Mo Feng?"

Ye Chen shook his head indifferently and rejected the former's proposal, "Either you say it now, or I start killing your gangsters one by one until you say it."

"You have no right to bargain with me now"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Chen directly glanced at Zhang Yan in front of him. The former understood and immediately asked the archer beside him to raise the crossbow in his hand again and slowly aimed it at everyone.

"Give you ten seconds. After ten seconds, I will start killing people." Ye Chen said calmly.

"Ten, nine, eight, seven..."

"I said, I said!" As Ye Chen's emotionless countdown sounded, Wang Yan finally couldn't bear the pressure in his heart and said bitterly.

"The information about the time and place of the arrival of the Wei family's caravan this time was reported to me by the spies at Mo Feng in my village."

There are only a few caravans in the Nanliang Mountains every day, and many villages are vying to loot them. Excluding the caravans of the four major families, there is not much money to be made.

Therefore, the intelligence and news of the caravan are particularly important in the cottage. In every cottage, there are almost undercover agents and spies from other cottages who come to inquire about the news, even Mo Feng is no exception.

Ye Chen nodded clearly. No wonder Wang Yan and his gang were able to pinpoint the time and place of the arrival of the Wei family's caravan so accurately. It turned out that they got the information from Mo Feng.

After a pause, Wang Yan continued: "When we ransacked the caravan a few times in the village, some mistakes were made, and the brothers were seriously injured. I just wanted to take a gamble, so I took the only remaining caravan with me. These brothers came to rob the Wei family's caravan, just hoping to make enough money and cultivate themselves for a while."

"My spy, in addition to the time and location of the Wei family's caravan, also found other information about the Wei family from Mo Feng."

"What news?" Ye Chen asked softly

Wang Yan simply sat on the ground and continued: "The reason why Mo Feng and his gang did not choose to do anything at the mass grave is actually to fish."

fishing? Ye Chen frowned and stared at Wang Yan with some confusion.

Feeling a little frightened by Ye Chen's gaze, Wang Yan quickly explained: "The top brass of the Wei family recently released some news, so Mo Feng thinks that although the Wei family has not borrowed officers and soldiers, they at least sent guards to support them."

"Hulukou in the Nanliang Mountains is the most suitable place for an ambush. Mo Feng plans to send a small force to attack the caravan before Hulukou and attract reinforcements. In fact, he has already set up a dragnet at Hulukou and is waiting to catch them all!"

After listening to Wang Yan's instructions like pouring beans out of a bamboo tube, Ye Chen looked slightly condensed and took a deep breath.

If Wang Yan hadn't found out the information about Mo Feng and chose to ambush here in advance, but he just happened to alert the snake and leaked the information to himself...

Hulukou may really be the burial place for his people.

At Hulukou, Ye Chen and others had paid attention when they entered the Nanliang Mountains. Ye Chen had also thought about it at that time. If it was an ambush, only fifty people could easily annihilate a team of a hundred people.

"Mo Feng personally leads the team this time?" Ye Chen asked

"It's not Mo Feng"

When the former's name was mentioned, a look of fear flashed across Wang Yan's face, and he immediately said: "The leader of the team this time is the third leader of Mo Feng Village, Li Yuan."

"That guy was a fierce man with hundreds of people's blood on his body. It is said that dozens of government soldiers died under his command. When he led the team to loot, there were almost no survivors left in the caravan."

"How many men and horses are there?"

"My spy didn't listen very carefully. As for the troops, there are about eighty people. Then Mo Feng said that the eighty people in Hulukou are enough to wipe out the reinforcements."

After hearing Wang Yan's news, Ye Chen's expression gradually became serious.

He thought that he had already calculated many steps for this rescue, and even guessed Mo Feng's thoughts and layout, but he did not expect that Mo Feng's calculations were more profound than his own.

He may only be on the second level, but Mo Feng has already reached the fifth level.

Ye Chen thought that if he concealed the news of borrowing reinforcements, Mo Feng would no longer take the Wei family's reinforcements seriously. But he still underestimated the meticulousness of Mo Feng's thoughts.

Being able to become the undisputed bandit leader in the Nanliang Mountains, which is extremely troubled by bandits, Mo Feng's intentions and the city's government cannot be easily guessed.

"Master Ye, I've said everything I want to say, is it okay..." Wang Yan said cautiously from the side.

Now Ye Chen's bows and crossbows are still aimed at his brothers, and there is a risk of turning them into hedgehogs at any time.

Ye Chen gestured towards Zhang Yan, signaling the archers in front to withdraw.

As the archers aiming at everyone withdrew, the circle of officers and soldiers gradually dispersed. The bandits were overjoyed and fled one after another.

Ye Chen's behavior just now really frightened them, and no one was sure whether the former would change his mind at any time.

In an instant, everyone who was shivering in the encirclement dispersed like birds and beasts and fled away.

Wang Yan hesitantly picked up the big knife on the ground and slowly backed away under Ye Chen's dull gaze.

"Why, Brother Wang is reluctant to leave?" Seeing the former's sneaky attitude, Ye Chen said lightly.

"Where, where, mountains and rivers meet, let's meet again someday!" As soon as Wang Yan finished speaking, his figure suddenly retreated and quickly disappeared into the dense forest behind him.

"Wei Xiao, the general manager of the Wei family caravan, I have met my uncle." Seeing that many bandits had left, Wei Xiao dragged his injured body and slowly walked to Ye Chen and said

When Ye Chen and Wei Yanran got married, he had just gone to southern Xinjiang to transport Lingluo yarn, so he and Ye Chen only met once and for all on the wedding day.

Ye Chen at that time was the surrogate son-in-law of the Wei family, the first of his kind in Jizhou City. As a man, Wei Xiao could not say he despised the former, but he also did not have much respect for him.

Who would have expected that today it would be this Wei family's son-in-law who, when they were about to be wiped out, would come down like a god and save them from the bandits.

"Get up," Ye Chen said calmly.

"Take care of the bodies of these brothers properly and bring them back to Jizhou. The Wei family will give enough money to support their families."

After explaining this to Wei Xiao, Ye Chen ordered everyone to rest where they were and wait for an hour before setting off again.

After dismounting and taking a rest, Ye Chen's expression slowly became serious when he glanced at the direction of the gourd mouth from which he came.

Hulukou can only be a bloody battle...
