The official road was narrow, and a team of five to six hundred people lined up for nearly a mile.
"Lieutenant Guo County, you will lead the team in wiping out Black Wind Stronghold this time, and we will be able to capture it with ease." Lao Ba, who was walking at the front of the team, complimented as he looked at the middle-aged man with a heroic face and heavy armor next to him.
Guo Yonghu has a handsome appearance. When he was young, he relied on his face and sweet words to become the son-in-law of the Tao family. He has been going smoothly ever since. He is only forty-two years old this year.
The family firmly controlled the Yangchun County police officers and turned the county magistrate into a puppet who only knew how to make money.
"The so-called art of war is to attack the weak with the strong. Although Black Wind Village only has one black bear demon that has been unable to break through to the great demon realm, four or five lower third realm monks and nearly a hundred thieves, we still have to be cautious against the enemy and strive to be able to
Use superior force to annihilate the enemy in one fell swoop."
Guo Yonghu, who was riding on the horse, used to speak in an official tone, but the look on his face seemed to be sure of winning this battle.
"Listening to these words, you can tell that Lieutenant Guo Xian has mastered the essence of the art of war, but I don't know how the various gangs will arrange it when they attack the stronghold?" When he said this, Lao Ba turned his head and looked at the two teams with distinct costumes at the end of the team.
.
The Rakshasa Sect and the Wusheng Sect were major religions in the Liang Kingdom. At that time, the Tao family was unable to resist the pressure from the major sects and allowed them to preach in Yangchun County. As a result, there were branches of the Rakshasa Sect and the Wusheng Sect in the local area.
These two sects of magic have been passed down for a long time. Although there are not many people in Yangchun County, they are much more elite than the gangs supported by the Tao family such as the Blood Clothes Society. The Dog Gang, Green Snake Gang, and Niu Ma Gang were jointly formed by the Tao family in order to check and balance them.
The handwriting of development.
It is strange to say that these two sects developed rapidly when they first entered Yangchun County, but stopped when their strength reached the tolerance limit of the Tao family. They have been keeping a low profile these years and will try their best to cooperate with the Tao family's various requests.
Although, the Tao family has always been wary of them. They are afraid of thieves and thieves. How can they not be careful with their family fortune accumulated over hundreds of years?
"The Rakshasa Cult and the Wusheng Cult are great religions in the Liang Kingdom. Their magic has been passed down for a long time and their methods are amazing. Naturally, we must do more to exterminate bandits and serve the country and the people."
After hearing this, Lao Ba showed a real expression. Although the Rakshasa Sect and the Wu Sheng Sect are big religions, they have a big business and a big business. They only used the power of the state once when they were forced into Yangchun County, and then took office.
It is developed by the branch itself.
Over the years, the Tao family has often found excuses to weaken their power, and this time the annihilation of Heifeng Village is obviously another opportunity.
After that, there was no words all the way. The teams of the county government and the three sects marched toward Cangxiong Ridge in a mighty manner. The wild beasts retreated along the way, and no monsters dared to appear around.
Until noon, the official road turned several times, and green mountains covered with pines and cypresses appeared in front of us. From a distance, we could see the big flag of the Blood Clothes Association waving in the wind on a gentle slope on the left side of the official road.
Seeing his own banner, Lao Ba proudly introduced it to Guo Yonghu beside him.
"Guo County Lieutenant, I have sent people to clear out a camp in advance. It seems that the size of this gentle slope is just enough for the county government and the manpower of my Blood Clothes Society to be stationed. It seems that the Rakshasa Sect and the Wu Sheng Sect can only sleep on the official road.
Already."
"The elites of the two factions are the main force in this bandit suppression. The official road is flat, so naturally the best camp will be given to them. Soldiers, send orders to camp in front." Guo Yonghu was overjoyed to see such terrain and immediately ordered.
Gentle Slope and Cangxiong Ridge are on both sides of the official road. Stationed on the official road, it becomes the first line of defense facing Heifeng Village.
Du Kang, who was on the gentle slope, saw the team slowly approaching in the distance, and immediately got on his horse and ran towards the team.
It had been nearly two days since he arrived at Cangxiong Ridge. During these two days, he had been vigilant about the patrols of Heifeng Village and guarded against possible camp-snatchers. He also had his knifemen remove all the dead grass on the gentle slope for convenience.
Set up camp.
Who knows, this Heifeng Village may really be just a grass-top team with lax discipline. This place is less than one mile away from the checkpoint of Heifeng Village, but no one has been sent to patrol nearby in two days.
Du Kang estimated that they might not know at this time that they had killed a distant relative of the Tao family and were about to be surrounded and suppressed by the government.
The Rakshasa Sect and the Wusheng Sect did not send anyone to Cangxiong Ridge in advance. Even before seeing the Yangchun County troops today, they did not see the scouts that should be present when a large group of troops travel. The marching team on the official road was also sparse. At this moment
Du Kang already had an ominous premonition in his heart.
I'm afraid this encirclement and suppression is not going to turn into a competition between small and large grassroots teams.
If Du Kang knew that Lao Ba sent him four days in advance, risking the dangers along the way in winter and the risk of being exposed in Heifengzhai just to flatter Guo County Lieutenant, he would probably reexamine his decision to use the Blood Clothes Association as a
Choice of novice village.
From a distance, he could clearly see Lao Ba's thin figure and his iconic tobacco pole. Du Kang rode up to Lao Ba and informed him.
"I have seen the third master, and my subordinates have already cleared the camp site in advance according to the third master's instructions. The county government and the brothers in the meeting just need to set up camp directly."
"Okay, you did a good job. Is there anything unusual in Heifeng Village these days?"
"No, this place is still one mile away from the checkpoint set up by Heifeng Village on the official road. I have been careful these days. I didn't even dare to light a fire at night so that Heifeng Village wouldn't find out."
"Yes, yes, Lieutenant Guo County, this is Du Kangdu, the leader of our Blood-clothed Guild. He is already a monk at the age of eighteen and is a rising star of our Blood-Coated Guild."
Lao Ba was very satisfied with Du Kang's answer and began to recommend him without losing face in front of Guo County Lieutenant.
"Instructor Du is indeed a talented person. He is only eighteen years old and is so young and promising. You can come and sit in my house when you have time." Guo Yonghu's eyes lit up when he saw Du Kang's appearance, and he touched his short beard and said.
"Xie Guo County Lieutenant appreciates it. I will definitely pay him a visit after the bandit suppression."
Du Kang immediately returned the favor with a fist in his hand. Du Kang, who was armed with a golden finger, was confident that he would soon be able to escape from the lowest level of the monks. Although he was not interested in forming cliques and cliques, he still had to have the proper etiquette and formalities.
After that, Du Kang rode on horseback to guide the team. After arriving at the camp, they set up camp, made fires to cook, and arranged defenses. Du Kang was so busy that he didn't mention it.
At night, looking at the piles of bonfires rising in the camp, Du Kang looked towards the dark Cangxiong Ridge. With his spiritual eyes, he could see dots of human-shaped spiritual energy fireballs standing in the forest and scouting this way.
A total of five to six hundred people from the county government and the three sects came today. The movement of setting up camp could not be concealed. Even the deaf and blind people in Heifeng Village should know about it.
After chatting with colleagues who came here today, he already knew the current situation. This time, there was only Guo Yonghu, a middle-level monk in the third realm. The gang leaders and helmsmen of the three factions had not yet arrived. The leaders were all cultivators of one or more spells.
