The Reborn Wife is Farming

It was the token of the Xixia army. Fei Bai found it in the hands of a villager when he was leading someone to move the corpse. Gave it to Qi Haoran.

Fei Bai didn't understand why he told everyone that it was done by Xixia soldiers, but didn't show it, but let everyone spend time looking for the traces and evidence left by the murderer.

Qi Haoran lowered his eyes and said, "They need time, and I need time too."

Qi Haoran didn't explain too much, just turned around and went back to the room, wrote a secret letter to Fei Bai, and said: "You and the scouts go to the nearest county town to inquire about news, and take this opportunity to pass this letter on."

Fei Bai didn't ask any further questions, put the secret letter away, turned around and withdrew.

The imperial court has now fought against the rebels, and there are winners and losers. Generally speaking, the imperial court has taken back more cities than lost, so it can barely be regarded as a victory. Hearing the news brought back by the scouts, all the soldiers were shocked and looked at Qi Haoran.

Qi Haoran lowered his eyes and said: "When the other two teams come back, we will continue to look for the imperial army."

Vice-General Zhong was stunned, "Aren't we going to find the murderer?"

"I'm looking for it, but I want to be more sure," Qi Haoran said, "If we can meet the imperial army, then we will have no worries."

"This is the critical time to suppress the bandits. Will the marshal who leads the army listen to our side?"

"So we have to collect evidence and report it to the imperial court. We are not competing with them for military merit. In the face of a big enemy, everyone should unite and inquire about the nearest imperial army camp." Qi Haoran instructed Deputy General Zhong.

Vice-General Zhong shrugged and ordered to go on. They planned to go to Tongren to rest there and listen to the imperial court's orders, but now they urgently need to join the army, so naturally they can't go to Tongren anymore, and the nearest army station is in Ye County, marching quickly It will take two and a half days.

Vice-General Zhong was about to order people to prepare dry food for the road, when the two scouting teams sent out came back, and the first team looked okay, and replied: "General, everything is normal on our road except for the bandit harassment. The local people can also testify that they are all locals.”

The other team's face was a little pale, "General, we searched carefully along the way and found that many mountain passes were trampled on a large scale. We asked the nearby villagers and townspeople, and found that some villagers and townspeople disappeared for no reason during this period. So far no person or body has been found, but because bandits are raging now, the Yamen doesn’t pay much attention to this matter.”

"But we checked privately. Those people appeared in similar places at about the same time. We searched along those places and found that there were hidden tracks. We roughly estimated that there were about 2,000 people in the other party. Where they left, we found several buried corpses. Strangely, the wounds on the corpses and the fatal wounds of the villagers seemed to be caused by the same weapon, but the knife technique was completely different. The other party seemed to be covering up something. .”

"Does this need to be said? Of course it is to cover up your identity. General, those who are alone are more than enough to kill, so there is still time to change the sword technique, but when we arrived at the village, it was obvious that the incident happened suddenly. The other party decided to massacre the village , so it was too late to cover up, but out of instinct, he used his best knife technique to kill people."

"General, give an order. These Xixia people broke into our Great Zhou. I don't know how many tragedies will happen. They are even more beasts than bandits."

Qi Haoran frowned and asked, "You said you estimated there were about 2,000 people? But we only found about 500 people around the village, so where did the other 1,500 people go?"

As soon as the words came out, everyone was silent, Qi Haoran turned around a few times, and said: "We can't let things go, after two and a half days we will lose a lot of traces if we find the big troops and send people out to investigate. Finding 2,000 people in Zhou is as difficult as climbing the sky."

"What does the general mean?"

"Divided into four teams, one team will continue to go back to find the imperial army, and the other three teams will try to find Xixia soldiers and leave traces along the way," Qi Haoran said: "Try not to conflict with them, and don't be discovered by them, our main task is to find and monitor them."

"Then who will lead the team back to find the imperial army?" Vice-General Zhong was most concerned about this.

Qi Haoran grinned, and said: "Let the first battalion commander Qian lead the troops back, you take a team to investigate the first team, I will take the first team, and the third battalion and fifth battalion commander Qian will lead a team."

Deputy General Zhong opened his mouth, wanting to say that he would lead the team back, but meeting Qi Haoran's eyes, he didn't say that. He didn't believe Qi Haoran, and Qi Haoran didn't believe him either. The best way is to let Others went back.

In the evening, Qi Haoran gathered Vice-General Zhong and the five battalion chiefs together, and said: "Now we each have something to do with each other, so if we lose everything, you should think more about it when you do things, so as not to make compromises." For the things I regret, I, Qi, will put the words here first, everyone can fight in any way, but at this time the national crisis and the family are in trouble, if you let me know who framed my colleagues at this time, and became the helper of the barbarians and tartars , someone from Qi will fulfill him and let him be a hero for Xixia or Jin."

Qi Haoran looked at them sharply, and everyone lowered their heads slightly. This threat was too serious, and no one dared to ignore it, because Qi Haoran was their superior, and he had their backs. .

At that time, not only they, but even their family members will have to die. At this time, not only the general manager of the battalion who took the mission back, but also Deputy General Zhong did not dare to think about this matter. After several months of getting along with them It can also be seen that Qi Haoran's temper is a little stubborn, and if he is sure about it, even the Heavenly King and Lao Tzu will stop him.

They didn't have the guts to gamble with the lives of the whole family.

Qi Haoran took out all the food in this village and divided it into four parts, three big ones and one small one, and handed over the smallest part to the chief executive of the first battalion, and said: "You guys are going back, this is enough, the rest is Leave it to the other brothers."

"It's all up to the general." The chief executive of Yiyingyingqian has no opinion at all, after all, his task is the simplest and safest.

Satisfied, Qi Haoran divided the three rations and drew out the scope of everyone's investigation, "No matter what method you use to find Xixia soldiers, you only need to remember three points, first, do not endanger the people, and second Two, you are not allowed to betray the country, and third, you are not allowed to disregard the lives of your comrades-in-arms!"

"Yes." Everyone stood up and listened to the order.

Qi Haoran was personally responsible for massacring the Xixia soldiers in the village, while the other two teams returned to the place where there were traces of 2,000 people before, and searched from there.

Qi Haoran waited for everyone to leave, then turned his head and said to the Second Battalion Chief Qian who was following him, "Let everyone take off their military uniforms and change into ordinary people's clothes. Let's go to Huaiyuan County."
