Chapter 586: Suppressing Bandits and Making Money, Fire in Yang Mansion

"Oh, okay." Liang Zhi responded in a daze and followed Jiang Dalang out of the house.

He rushed back and told the soldiers in the house: "Keep everything you heard to yourself and don't reveal a single word. Guard the fake Yang County Lieutenant well and don't let him die!"

Oh my God, what did he just hear?

Brother Jiang actually used Dongmo dialect to trick out the true identity of County Lieutenant Yang!

The bandits might not be bandits, but spies from Dongmo who had been lurking in the territory of Wei for a hundred years.

"Yes." The four soldiers responded hurriedly.

"Brother Jiang, wait for me." Liang Zhi was overwhelmed. He hurriedly caught up with Jiang Dalang and grabbed his hand. He wanted to ask something but held it back. They ran to the house where Captain Lang was.

"Close the door, close the door, Uncle Lang, we have something important to report!" Liang Zhi spoke with gestures and danced with his hands.

"What?!" Captain Lang stood up in shock and ran straight to Jiang Dalang, grabbing his shoulder and asking, "Is he really a spy from Dongmo?"

Jiang Dalang only said, "I have this guess... After all, this place is close to the East Desert, and if there is no big force to support it, how can a century-old bandit camp be supported? And the bandits like Dao Lao Da can use spears and powerful poisons. The methods they have are too powerful, and ordinary bandit camps can't get them at all."

"The old case of the massacre in the ghost village, the extensive tunnels, the bandits turning civilians, and other things all prove that they are not ordinary bandits."

"The only ones who are more powerful than the bandits and more eager to escape are the descendants of traitors and spies from other countries lurking in our territory."

He added: "But these are just my speculations. As for whether they are true or not, we need to break through the bandit camp and see if we can find relevant evidence from the East Desert."

Captain Lang: "Yes, yes, yes, we must break into the bandit camp as soon as possible to find evidence... This is a serious matter, I have to write a letter to the general and ask him to send more troops."

Since the matter concerned the Dongmo spies, there was no time to waste. Captain Lang and Liang Zhi immediately wrote a letter using the secret code of the Northwest Army, and blew a whistle to summon a flying bird to deliver the letter to General Liang.

When the clerk heard the noise, he came over to ask, "Captain Lang, Second Young Master Zhenyuan, and Dalang, have you found anything?"

This?

Captain Lang said, "I have made some discoveries. I have sent a letter to General Liang by flying birds. I will tell you in detail after General Liang's order arrives."

Guan Shuli understood that this was for safety reasons and could not be said explicitly for the time being: "Yes, I understand. I will not ask any more questions. My Guan family will follow the orders of Captain Lang."

"Good!" Captain Lang was very satisfied, and immediately summoned his trusted men into the house and asked them to go to Dongmo to interrogate the descendants of the Yang family.

In particular, I want to ask: "On the first day of September, will the Yang family hold a sacrifice?"

In the Wei Dynasty, the winter solstice is not until November, but the East Desert is a truly bitterly cold place, much colder than the Northeast Province. It snows heavily before September and the rivers are frozen. The rivers do not thaw until April or May of the following year.

Therefore, the winter in Dongmo is very long and difficult to endure. In order to pray for peace, Dongmo people will hold a grand sacrifice to the God of Winter on the first day of September every year.

The God of Winter is the only god worshipped by everyone in Dongmo. If County Lieutenant Yang was from Dongmo, he might make some noise on this day and be discovered by the descendants of the Yang family.

"I obey your orders!" The trusted men left immediately and, according to the instructions, used severe punishments and inducements to interrogate the descendants of the Yang family.

Liang Zhi also went to the punishment room of County Magistrate Yang and told him: "You can't hide it, but if you are willing to tell the truth, we in the Great Wei will spare your family. Anyway, your son is intermarrying with our Wei people, and your grandson is already half Wei."

“Shut up!” County Lieutenant Yang roared, feeling sick in his heart and disgusted with the bloodline of his dead grandchildren.

He quickly covered up all inappropriate emotions and cried out for injustice: "My Yang family has been Wei people for generations. My Yang family is innocent. Jiang Dalang, this villain, slandered me and tarnished my Yang family's innocence!"

Lieutenant Yang was so angry that he wanted to eat Jiang Dalang's flesh and blood raw.

If he had known this would happen, he should not have tried to win over Jiang Dalang, but should have killed him directly.

Now it’s time for Jiang Dalang to guess his true identity... His century-long plan for Dongmo is about to be ruined!

He is sorry to Dongmo, he is the sinner of Dongmo.

County Magistrate Yang burst into tears and cried bitterly. Those who didn't know him would have thought he was crying because he was wronged.

Liang Zhi frowned and said, "Stop his mouth and don't let him bite his tongue to death."

After saying this, he left to watch the interrogation of the descendants of the Yang family.

Except for two grandchildren who were less than three years old, all the other three sons and eight grandchildren of Yang County Magistrate were tortured.

And criminal trials are effective.

A nine-year-old grandson could not bear the pain and told a story he knew: "Wow, grandpa, grandpa would secretly come out from underground at night... I saw it before the Double Ninth Festival in September..."

The Double Ninth Festival, before the Double Ninth Festival, is around the first day of September!

The interrogator, Captain Tao, was overjoyed and asked again: "Underground? Where underground?"

He was careful and patient in asking for the place, and immediately reported it to Captain Lang.

Captain Lang led his men to a small courtyard in the Yang Mansion, found the exit of the secret room, and entered the secret room underground.

There were indeed traces of long-term sacrifices in the secret room, but it was a pity that "there was nothing related to Dongmo, not even the red feather mark... only some stone statues without words or facial features."

Jiang Dalang also followed and carefully examined the stone statues as big as palms.

After consulting Captain Lang, he smashed the stone statue with an axe.

Liang Zhi was watching from the side, quite disappointed: "It's solid, nothing is hidden."

Jiang Dalang studied the stone inside the statue for a moment and said, "The inside of the stone is white, as if it is made of plaster... After I started learning Dongmo language, I read a lot of books about Dongmo customs. Dongmo likes to use plaster to erect stone statues to worship deceased ancestors, just like we erect tablets."

Liang Zhi patted his head and said, "Yes, yes, it seems that Dongmo has this custom... Are these true? Does that mean that County Magistrate Yang is indeed a spy from Dongmo?"

By the end of the question, Liang Zhi was excited.

If they really manage to eliminate the spies of other countries, then this will be a great military achievement. It is no exaggeration to say that you can be promoted from a soldier to a general!

Jiang Dalang shook his head: "Not sure. We still have to suppress the bandits first and search the bandit camp... The bandit camp is their hideout, and we will definitely be able to find useful evidence."

"Da Lang is right." Captain Lang agreed and said, "We will try the Yang family again for three days. After three days, we will immediately gather our troops and go into the mountains to look for the bandit camp. After we determine the location of the bandit camp, once General Liang's troops arrive, we will immediately attack the camp and search to see if they are bandits or spies from the East Desert!"

From that day on, Captain Lang and his soldiers interrogated the Yang family members severely. Even Captain Gao, who was on good terms with County Lieutenant Yang, was tied up and interrogated.

But the descendants of the Yang family really didn’t know anything about County Magistrate Yang.

Captain Gao was also a tough guy, and County Lieutenant Yang was even more fearless of death. Therefore, apart from the faceless plaster statue in the secret room, there was no valid evidence to prove that County Lieutenant Yang was a spy.

Captain Lang was very depressed and had no time to compete with County Lieutenant Yang. On the fourth day, he withdrew from Yang's Mansion and prepared to rest for two days. After leaving enough troops in the county town, he led his troops out of the county and went into the mountains to find the bandit camp and suppress the bandits.

But Captain Lang and his men had not yet left the county. At midnight on the sixth day, flames shot up into the sky from the Yang Mansion, and the entire Yang Mansion was engulfed in flames.
