Long Lin called several officials and briefly understood the situation.
Then arrange for these people to inform the people inside along the road that the danger has passed. They can clean up their houses and go out as they like, but try not to go out.
After walking around for a while, Long Lin went directly to the county government office.
At this moment, there are only a few officers and soldiers guarding the county government office. The lobby is empty, and most of the officers and soldiers are still working outside.
After wandering around for a while, Long Lin returned to the palace.
The situation was much better than he thought. Most of the people were not persecuted last night.
It seems that those bandits entered the county and ran directly towards the palace. Their purpose was to support the young prince Long Ao, not to rob the people.
In a few days, the entire county will be completely new.
...
Tens of days later, Long Ye and Fu Di rushed back.
Their faces looked very happy.
Just by looking at the reaction, Long Lin could guess that everything went smoothly during the attack on the bandits, and there were no major surprises.
Most of the strong men in the bandit's stronghold must have arrived here before and have been wiped out. The bandits who remained in the stronghold were not particularly special when dealt with using Long Ye and Fu Di's strategies.
difficulty.
It seems that he solved this matter well again.
No matter what kind of cat, the one that can catch mice is a good cat.
At this moment, Long Lin felt somewhat elated.
The matter was resolved so smoothly, and he did not expect it at all. It seemed that he found the right person and solved the matter easily.
"Tenth brother, how was the harvest?"
After Tatsuno sat down, he took a hurried sip of tea.
"Brother Six, everything is going very smoothly. Those bandit dens are really well hidden. It will be very difficult to find them. There are nine bandit dens in total. We have taken down all of them without stopping.
Those people have been completely controlled by the Forbidden Army, and the resistance is not fierce. There are actually many women and children."
After hearing this, Long Lin was stunned for a moment.
It seems that these bandits have already established a stable life in that mountain.
"Tenth brother, what do you think we should do?"
After hearing this, Long Ye showed a wry smile.
"Brother Six, I think those men should be sent to the army. If they are killed, there are too many of them. When they reach the border, they may be able to contribute some, and the number of women and children is even greater. I personally feel that the imperial court has no control over these men.
People, it's best to be more generous and let them take those children down the mountain and live a normal life. Without the leader, I think they won't become bandits again in the future."
Tatsuno thought about it and felt that it was best to handle it this way.
After hearing this, Long Lin nodded directly.
"Tenth brother, just follow what you said. Those women and children must not have gone out to rob the people. And those women, most likely, are also victims. They were robbed to the mountain. They were not wrong. After coming down from the mountain, they took
It is a good way to use part of the money to help them rebuild a home."
"Brother Six, then this matter is settled." Long Ye said with a smile.
"Tenth brother, besides these nine bandits? There should be more, right?"
"Yes, Sixth Brother, there are indeed more. We have arranged for the Imperial Guard to go directly. According to our understanding, the main bandits are actually in Bazhou. The number of bandits in the other three states is not very large, and they are completely obedient to orders here.
, with Xiaobao taking it with him, there should be no problem at all."
After Long Ye said this, Long Lin realized that Xiaobao had not returned.
After going out several times, Long Ye also discovered that this little treasure was actually very good. No wonder this man became the leader of the forbidden troops in his courtyard.
It can be said that Xiaobao has the ability to become a good general.
He had made a joke about this little treasure at the beginning. Everyone around him seemed to have a good relationship, but this little treasure didn't seem to be interested in his maids.
That Qiuxiang has an extraordinary appearance, but Xiaobao doesn't know if he has any ideas.
Long Lin remembered this incident in his heart.
"Well, very good. Everything in the county has returned to calm. The bandits in the entire Bazhou have been completely wiped out this time. The mission assigned by our father is basically completed. The only thing is that we have not found the demon identified by the Magic Mountain.
Mountain, I don’t know what is inside that magic mountain.”
"Hasn't Bage sent back the news yet?" Long Ye asked in surprise.
After hearing this, Long Lin immediately smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Tenth brother, I still have you to blame for this matter. If you hadn't asked him to take the sick and disabled generals with him, he might have rushed back if he hadn't stopped. But now, he probably hasn't even walked half the distance.
go out."
After hearing this, Tatsuno finally remembered.
He didn't think much about it at the time, he just thought it was going along the way.
"Then let's wait for news about him. We found a lot of things from the bandits' den, but if we help those people rebuild their homes, I'm afraid they will all be squandered. I think that the things those bandits plundered will be squandered."
All the wealth should have fallen into the hands of that young prince, Long Ao."
After hearing this, Long Lin nodded in agreement.
"Tenth brother, how could Long Ao have worked so hard to let most of the money really fall into the hands of the bandits? All of it will definitely be collected in his hands. I'm afraid it would be the same for anyone else."
After hearing this, Long Ye frowned slightly.
"Sixth brother, these bandits have been here for decades. They existed before Long Ao came here. After so many years, the gold and silver accumulated must be very huge, but it can't be
There is a lot of gold and silver in that underground golden palace, but is that all gold and silver?"
On the way back, Tatsuno was thinking about this issue.
Bandits robbed homes for money and women.
There were a large number of women in the bandit's stronghold, but the amount of gold and silver did not make people feel alarmed.
Even if they would consume it, how could the amount of gold and silver they looted be so small if the bandits were so violent?
He knew clearly that the amount of gold and silver finally found in Daizhou and Shizhou was very huge. After a group of corrupt officials divided the loot, there was still a large part of the gold and silver left to distribute.
When it is in the hands of the people, the amount is still in the millions.
But in the Golden Palace, there are at most less than one million taels, and the bandits here are much older than those in Daizhou and Shizhou.
When Long Ye mentioned this, Long Lin was stunned.
In the past few days, although he was a little happy in his heart, he always had a feeling that something was not quite right, but after thinking about it, he never thought of it.
When Tatsuno said this, he understood immediately.
It turns out that what's wrong is the money.
"Tenth brother, the amount of gold and silver is definitely more than that. I took a large part of the silver in the government office and distributed it to the people, so that they could repair their houses, eliminate panic, and resume their previous lives.
I never thought that this amount of money should be much more than this."
"Yes, Sixth Brother, where is the rest of the silver?" Long Ye asked.
