In the study, Fei Ze explained the key points of the task to Ruan Xingzhu and Fan Yuzhen.
"There are many mountains in Yanling County, so it is difficult to find people." Fan Yuzhen knew the topography of several nearby counties.
"It doesn't matter, I will arrange for Xia Houchu to lead the way for you, and leave the matter of finding people to him. You are only responsible for arresting people, and try to catch them alive. If that doesn't work, you have to take back the bodies." Fei Ze wants high-powered players to follow.
Don't have too many people following you.
The secret spies who were abandoned by the imperial court immediately switched to Shaodian secret, especially those close to Ding Kui's territory. When the yellow mud fell into their crotches, it was either shit or shit.
Xiahou Chu's popularity was not bad, but he actually gathered a group of people to plot against the head of the Yanling County branch of the spy department, and took the opportunity to recruit all the secret spies in Yanling County. Now in Nanmao Prefecture, apart from Mei Jie, there are only Xiahou Chu's men.
At most, the fact that Shaodianmi and Niansi belong to the upper-level leaders will naturally not be included.
The 13th Lieutenant Humin did not go to Yanling County alone. There were two intelligence organizations, the Security Bureau and the Old Spy Intelligence Division, assisting him. There was also a large group of the 71st Division on the border of Huashan County preparing for support.
"Just leave this kind of mission to your special forces." Ding Cai climbed up a cliff under the pull of Lei Feixiang, and they were responsible for cutting off the team's rear.
"That's right, but it's also wrong." Lei Feixiang packed up the rope.
"What do you say?" Ding Cai picked up the bundle on the ground and tied it to his body again.
They have been deep into Yanling County for the second day.
"Look at our team, how many people do you think the special operations team must send to win?" Lei Feixiang packed up and continued on the road along the tracks ahead.
Ding Cai grabbed the snow on the small tree, took two bites, and said, "A camp?"
"It shouldn't be enough!" Lei Feixiang shook his head fiercely, "In complex terrain, the captain and Brother Gan can contain a battalion, and others can definitely defeat a battalion with sneak attacks from all sides."
"No way, the special forces are so powerful!" Ding Cai didn't believe it.
"Strength is a relative term. It's no problem to beat ordinary soldiers. You, sister-in-law, Ding Zhong, me, Lao Cui, Lao Ruan and Xiao Fei basically use one move at a time, and the remaining team members can cover us.
Our captain is very powerful. Her strength is comparable to that of Miss Ao. Once in Nanqiu County, she pretended to be Miss Ao and cooperated with us in fighting. One person was able to suppress more than a hundred magicians from our country." Lei Xiang cut down a small tree and handed it over.
To Ding Cai.
Ding Cai dragged the trunk of the tree and dragged the small tree backwards, sweeping it from time to time to destroy the footprints on the ground. Although there were traces left behind, the footprints were covered up, making it impossible to judge how many people there were.
"No way? I watched that little girl grow up. She only became a teacher when the master played in the county competition." Ding Cai boasted heartily when no one else was around.
"Hey, others may not know, but everyone who has been in Tianmen Town knows that she is Master Rong's most beloved disciple and the fastest-promoting magic genius in Tianmen Town. We believe she is that powerful." Lei Feixiang was Ruan Xingzhu back then.
a die-hard fan.
"You have some basis for saying that. There are so many weird people around me! Look at the Ao cousins, they are about the same age as me, and their strength is frightening. It makes no sense at all."
The two chatted while chasing the team, trying to cross the mountains in front of them before dark.
The first stop when entering Yanling County is Luanshi Town. This is not a kind place. Bandits have appeared since ancient times.
To the southwest of Luanshi Town is Mangshi Mountain, which is high in the mountains and densely forested. Poisonous insects and ferocious beasts appear all year round. Moreover, because it is not far from the road leading to Nanqiu County, caravans of all sizes pass by almost every day, so it has become a place where strongmen and bandits are rampant.
Caravans must travel together when passing Mangshi Mountain. They spend money to recruit caravan guards in Luanshi Town to ensure safety. However, there will always be small caravans that delay the trip or have high profits and low profits. If they are unlucky, they will run into bandits.
.
Luanshi Town is an outpost on the way south, and it is also an outpost for bandits. The residents in the town are more or less colluding with the bandits. The people nearby are not aware of it, they just tacitly understand it, and no one is far away from provoking bandits and robbers.
.
Xia Hou received a secret report that a group of bandits in Luanshi Town participated in the burning of the official warehouse in Shiwa City. It can be determined that they have direct contact with the mastermind behind the scenes.
After climbing over one mountain, there was another mountain, but there were people waiting at the foot of the mountain for the Thirteenth Guardsman.
"It turns out that Master Ruan is personally leading the team, ah, as well as Director Ding and all the adults." Xia Houtu arrived at Mangshi Mountain one day in advance to wait, not knowing the specific members of this team.
"Are you camping here tonight?" Ruan Xingzhu spread his mental energy and scanned the nearby area.
Xia Houchu replied: "Yes, I came here last night to arrange it. It is very safe here."
Ruan Xingzhu nodded, Hua Mulan and Ding Fen ran away separately and set up traps around them.
"Uncle, Sister Zhen and Xiao Fei are here to have a meeting. The others will go to rest first." The captain gave the order in a dignified manner.
She has gotten along well with the team members on the road, and they all know each other. Everyone is helping her. She is a very good captain.
Xia Houchu introduced the situation in Mangshi Mountain in detail: There are dozens of groups of bandits, large and small, in the mountain. This time we have to deal with one of the larger groups, called the "Scavenging Gate", with about two hundred people.
"The master of the scavenging sect is called Pheasant. He is a late-stage warrior of the Rebellion. There are about a hundred people who participated in burning Shiwa City. Your task is to capture Pheasant alive. His men can catch him if they can, and shoot those who can't."
"Pheasant? Does anyone have such a name?" Ruan Xingzhu felt that the bandit leader's name was strange.
"This shows that Pheasant has some background and refuses to show his real name to others. He probably has another serious identity." Ruan Jizong explained to his niece.
"It will be clear if you catch him and torture him. You will be able to find out his identity." Fan Yu cherishes the pheasant as his treasure.
"How far is Pheasant's bandit's den from here? Is the road easy to walk? How many hiding spots are there in the mountains?" Shao Dianfei has experience in mountain combat, and he often got into trouble with his own army in Huatong Mountain. Ding Kui chose him because of this.
Hit this point.
"It takes two hours to walk on a mountain road. It's not that far. There is an agent of ours at the scavenging gate. If you find him, you will know where the bandits are hiding."
Fan Yuzhen looked at Xia Houhu in surprise: "There are also your spies in the bandit den? Why did you go there so early? Why didn't you send troops to destroy them?"
"What's this! Maybe the maid who cooks for you is a spy. People from the Spy and Intelligence Department are everywhere. They don't know how many families they have ruined!" Ruan Jizong said in a bad tone.
The Ruan family was forced to raise troops to rebel because a spy leaked the news.
Shao Dianfei quickly helped explain: "The Intelligence Department is an institution of the clan and is not responsible for local affairs. They only need to provide intelligence to the king. It is up to the king to decide whether to send troops to suppress the bandits.
How could the king notice such a small place? Whether or not to suppress it all depends on the mood of the local officials. If they are serious, they will report it and seek assistance from the Intelligence Department. The Intelligence Department branch will provide limited information according to the order of the Ministry of Health and Inspection.
intelligence."
