Chapter 1256 Mangshi Mountain Bandit Suppression II
Ding Cai is a special being in this team. Everyone who sees him can call him brother, just like Ruan Xingzhu, uncle and nephew. The younger one calls him Brother Cai, and the older one calls him Brother Ding. The hierarchy is completely messed up!
However, no one will feel awkward or think that their status has been lowered or elevated by Ding Cai, and they are willing to get close to him.
He may not be the most important person around Ding Kui, but he is definitely an indispensable one, not because he is the number one loser, but because he is Ding Kui's first prisoner.
The flying general killed countless enemies and captured everyone from ordinary soldiers to legion commanders. Is Ding Cai still missing a bandit leader?
The special thing about Ding Cai is that he was the first to assassinate Ding Kui. In the end, he was a blessing in disguise and became a pet-like existence around Ding Kui.
Everyone needs a partner who can make him feel better. An ordinary person’s partner is a good friend, an emperor’s partner is a jester, and Ding Kui’s partner is Ding Cai.
"Don't mention the past! Haven't you heard the old man always singing this song? We, a group of us, don't say too much, and we don't say too much. The longer we stay here, the easier it is to be discovered.
Mangshi Mountain is full of bandits. If you are not discovered by the Scavenger Gate, you will be discovered by other bandits. The bandits must be colluding with each other and are very likely to tell Shanji.
According to my experience, a quick attack and a surprise attack on the bandits will definitely have miraculous results. I did this with my master back then." Ding Cai, who leads the way, has experience.
"Can everyone still hold on?" Ruan Xingzhu paid more attention to those warriors.
Magicians have the easiest time climbing over mountains and ridges. They can keep their feet on the ground throughout the whole process. If they have enough magic power, they don't have to worry about physical strength. Ruan Xingzhu and Qian You don't have to worry about magic power at all;
The archers come second. They usually train by climbing over walls and jumping high and low. Today’s activity can only be regarded as a warm-up;
The knight has the support of fighting spirit. Before the fighting spirit is exhausted, he can enter the fighting state at any time. If he is not physically strong, he can be rescued by fighting spirit. Even Lu Ying will not lose his temper.
Fan Yuzhen, Lei Feixiang, Cui Tianwu and Dou Xiao rode on the road like porters, contracting all the team's equipment, which was quite physically demanding. Ding Zhong was better off, he didn't have much luggage, he always appeared and disappeared, and he didn't know where he was.
What to do.
"Captain, don't worry!" Dou Xiaoqi, the weakest man, spoke on behalf of the warriors, "It won't be a problem to fight for several days in a row."
"Okay! Let's set off first. In an hour, senior brother will come with the rest of the people. I will leave magic marks along the way." Ruan Xingzhu didn't say much and just went ahead with it.
Qianyou and Ding Kui were used to running around here and there, and couldn't stay idle at home. It happened that his junior sister was on the move, so he took the initiative to escort him. His reason was very good. He was there when they attacked Funiu Mountain, so he couldn't come to Yanling County, a mountainous area.
He lacks experience.
On the way to Mangshi Mountain, he taught Ruan Xingzhu his experience. Ruan Xingzhu understood everything at once, and his experience of living and training in the mountainous area was not in vain.
The two-hour mountain road took the leading team one and a half hours to complete. Ruan Xingzhu found the mountain stronghold on the mountainside without Xia Hou touching his finger.
"So crude!" She couldn't believe her eyes. "The Ruan Village is better than this village!"
The low wall is about five meters high, and the village gate is made of multiple wooden boards. It looks more like a refugee camp than a bandit's den with hundreds of people.
"The bandits here do not always stay in the village. They often go to live in the villages and towns below and transform themselves into local people. Therefore, Luanshi Town is called the bandit nest." Xiahou Tu explained in a low voice.
In other words, cottages are only temporary strongholds, mostly used to avoid the limelight. Once the limelight passes, the bandits will come down and become common people, so they will not spend energy and materials on the construction of cottages.
"The strength of Ruanjia Village is much stronger than that of the Scavenger Gate. It cannot be compared." Ruan Jizong felt a little sad after saying this, missing the peaceful small mountain village very much.
After all, there are more than 800 people in Ruanjia Village, and the Tian family has to dispatch 2,000 people to dare to come. The scavenging gate is indeed too far away.
"If I hadn't asked to capture as many gangsters alive as possible, I could have taken over this cottage by myself." Ding Zhong stood in a dark shadow, and it was impossible to tell where he was without speaking.
This is not bragging. He kills people and sets fires at the same time. He targets weak spots and no one can stop him.
"Director Ding, please be merciful. The pheasant must be alive. Only he has been in contact with his employer, and no one else in the scavenger sect knows about it."
Keep alive.
"I won't ruin the master's business!"
Xiahou was relieved after hearing this. The dead pheasant was of no use to them.
"Is there any loophole in this copycat?" Ruan Jizong was actually asking about the internal situation.
"Yes, there is a hemp rope hidden on the cliff on the right. We can climb up quietly and climb over the wall of the village without anyone noticing. We should live in the utility room under the wall of the village." Xiahou pointed to Ruan Jizong.
The hemp rope must have been hidden there for a long time. It can be used to enter or leave the stronghold, and it is an escape route for the people inside.
"The Intelligence Department doesn't have enough manpower to solve this problem?" Ding Zhong couldn't help but have doubts.
There are not many experts in the Intelligence Department, but Xiahou Chu himself is a fearless knight. With the help of insiders, it shouldn't be too difficult for him to lead a team of people to secretly capture pheasants.
"This is not Nanqiu County. When we are paying attention to the enemy, the enemy is also paying attention to us. The sacrifice of using the people of Yanling County is too high. Our people cannot be exposed before Yanling County is conquered.
Just like this operation, only one insider is exposed to solve the scavenging gate. The enemy has no idea who is behind it, so we have more opportunities to contact the enemy." Xia Houchu said a few more words to his colleagues.
This needs to be explained clearly. The old spy agent is the stepmother, while the Security Bureau is his biological son.
"Then thank you, captain, let's sneak in." Ding Zhong walked out of the shadows.
"It's okay. The weather is good today. It's not snowing and the wind is not strong. You won't get lost."
Ding Zhong, Xia Houchu and Ruan Jizong climbed into the stronghold through the cliff on the right. Ruan Xingzhu had to monitor them from high altitude and help them in time if they found danger.
The night is a double-edged sword. It can cover up Ruan Xingzhu's whereabouts, and also makes it more difficult to monitor Ding Zhong and the others. They can only fly to an altitude of more than 100 meters and lock on one person with their mental power.
A short time is nothing, but Ruan Xingzhu needs to concentrate on it for at least an hour, unless the bandits find the three uninvited guests soon.
Things just happen to be that coincidental!
As soon as Ding and Zhong jumped off the wall, they were discovered by a few drunken guys before they could find the secret agent. One of them was a little more sober and saw that the three men were acting suspiciously, so he shouted loudly and asked: "Who are they? What are you trying to do secretly?"
