Chapter 111: Going up the mountain to eliminate the bandit’s den
"Did you encounter bandits?" When Yuan Ming heard Jiang Huai mention bandits, he suddenly became interested and put down the steamed bun in his hand. With that look of eating melon, he should not be in the Ministry of Revenue, but in some spy department that was gathering information.
"Yes, we encountered bandits." Lu Chuan replied.
Jiang Huai said to Xie Yunxiao, "You still have to go there in person for this matter."
Xie Yunxiao nodded as he ate, "Well, let's go tomorrow."
"Where are you going? What are you going to do? You are in such a hurry, can you take me with you?" Yuan Ming asked one after another.
Xie Yunxiao smiled evilly, "We're going to take down the bandit's den. Do you want to go with us?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Ming shook his head like a rattle, picked up the steamed bun he had put down, listened with his ears squinting, and ate his meal obediently.
Jiang Yuan became interested after hearing this. "Go and destroy the bandit's den tomorrow? I'll go."
"Okay, come with me. I think it's boring for you to stay at home." Jiang Huai agreed, which made Jiang Yuan very happy. He was really afraid that he would disagree. Of course, he couldn't stop him even if he disagreed.
“I asked the village chief, and they said that this group of bandits was on a mountain not far from the village, and there were about a hundred of them.
The nearby villages were affected by the flood, so life was hard. Some families with no one left had no other options, so they went up the mountain and became bandits.
Over time, the number of bandits in the mountains increased.
They often come down the mountain to rob houses. Now that someone has been captured, I guess there will be new ones coming down tomorrow to search. That village is still not safe."
Jiang Huai said, and Xie Yunxiao nodded, "Yes, so let's go early tomorrow morning and solve it as soon as possible."
"Doesn't the government here care?" Qu Ying asked.
"I asked too. This place is quite far from the town, and there are always endless bandits being caught. The government has tried to take action, but it didn't work. Most of the time, the common people can only blame themselves for their bad luck."
After discussion, Jiang Yuan and Xie Yunxiao would go ahead and lead people up the mountain to suppress the bandits, while Jiang Huai and his men would go to the government office and ask them to send people for follow-up support. After all, those bandits would have to be sent to the government jail after they were caught.
Before dawn, Jiang Yuan and Xie Yunxiao set out with a dozen people. After walking for a while in the dark, the sky gradually turned pink and became brighter.
The man who was keeping watch outside the bandit's lair was dozing off when he vaguely saw a group of people coming towards their village, and he immediately perked up.
The sound of bells echoed throughout the valley.
Jiang Yuan and Xie Yunxiao looked up at the same time, looking at the man on the lookout tower at the entrance of the village who was desperately shaking the bell, "Fourth brother, it looks like we've been discovered."
"It would be strange if you don't get discovered if you walk around so brazenly."
The gate of the village opened, and a large group of people came out from inside, holding all kinds of tools in their hands. They really had all kinds of weapons.
The leader had a full beard on his face. He held up an axe and poked it into the ground, pointing at the people on horseback in front of him, "Who are you? What are you doing in our Tiger Village?"
Jiang Yuan rode on the horse, showing a pure and lovely smile, "Before asking someone's name, you should say your own name first. This is polite."
The bearded man was stunned and shouted angrily, "I will never change my name. I am Wang Hu, the leader of the Tiger Village."
"Oh, so it's the boss. Well, then I will answer the boss's question. Who are we? We are from the imperial court.
Look, these big brothers behind are all soldiers from the imperial court.
As for what we are here for, of course we are here to arrest you, Boss, can't you see that?"
Wang Hu was so angry that he was going crazy. He had been a bandit for so many years and had never seen such a person. He came to catch them and said it was so easy. He dared to come to their door with a dozen people. He didn't take their Menghu Village seriously at all.
The axe in his hand pointed at Jiang Yuan, "Where did this ungrateful girl come from? How dare you, just a few people, come to my Menghu Village and seek death."
Jiang Yuan was surprised, covering his mouth, frowning slightly, and said unhappily, “Oh, you are so rude.
Calling someone a dead girl is so ugly.
Besides, it’s not certain who will die between us.”
"You...you...come on, capture that dead girl alive, I must torture her to death with my own hands...ah..." Before Wang Hu could finish his words, a foot appeared in front of him, and then the man flew four or five meters away.
Jiang Yuan was riding on his horse, watching him raging and uttering wild words, then he kicked him and sent him flying.
Once someone takes the lead, the rest don't need to shout slogans anymore.
Jiang Yuan's sword was not unsheathed, but when the sword with the scabbard hit his chest, his throat tightened and a fishy and sweet taste came up.
If hit on the leg, you will immediately lose the ability to move.
A sword hit my back, and I could hear the sound of it piercing through my chest.
Being hit by her is not a fatal blow, but it is enough to make a person lose the power to resist.
Within a quarter of an hour, all the hundreds of people in the Tiger Camp fell to the ground.
Jiang Yuan stepped on the chest of the big boss Wang Hu, bent over, and supported his arms on his knees, "Hey, your mouth has eaten shit, it stinks.
My aunt will serve you personally today, please rinse your mouth carefully."
As he said this, he stepped hard and stomped on Wang Hu, causing him to wail.
The soldiers had already started tying people up with ropes. Jiang Yuan looked around and saw people rolling on the ground groaning. He shrugged at Xie Yunxiao and said, "Fourth brother, that's it. The government has failed to suppress the bandits several times. It's too useless.
Can anyone with healthy limbs be a yamen runner? Are there no requirements for skills? If the yamen is like this, how can it protect the people and their personal and property safety?
Those yamen runners didn't get their jobs through backdoors, did they? We must investigate thoroughly, there is no way they could be involved in nepotism."
Jiang Yuan talked for a long time, and Xie Yunxiao understood the first part, but there were many other words that he couldn't understand.
However, some of what they said is true. These hundred or so people should not be that difficult to catch. Why can't the government eliminate all the bandits?
The chief constable from the yamen led his men up the mountain to meet them. Halfway up, they saw two men on horseback, followed by a string of tied-up bandits.
"Who are you?" Xie Yunxiao asked after approaching.
The leader bowed and saluted, "General, I am the captain of the police, my surname is Li."
"Well, Captain Li, these are all people from the Tiger Village. Take them all away. The things in the Tiger Village are all on the cart at the back. Take away all the valuables.
There are still a few girls who were abducted to the mountain. Let’s ask the government about their placement later.”
Captain Li was a little stunned, looking at their team of only a dozen people, including a girl, and how they managed to capture over a hundred people from the Menghu Village.
When they got the news, they rushed to support without stopping. Not only did they capture and tie up all the people, they also searched the entire village.
When did the Tiger Village become so easy to deal with?
