Under Qing Gong's pressure, the younger brother could only run back and report to Boss Hu.
Boss Tiger had a toothache, but he had to agree and hand over all the bandits to the officers and soldiers.
The officers and soldiers also separated some of them, dressed as bandits, carried horses and knives, and left the village in a leisurely manner.
The tiger boss wanted to cry but had no tears. There were no bandits around him anymore, only Han Chang, who was half dead, was left.
"Brother Tiger, it's time to eat."
A brave villager brought steamed white rice and horse meat in front of the tiger boss.
"Thank you very much."
Tiger Boss squeezed out three words from between his teeth.
"Brother Tiger, you're welcome, Master Bai said. Bandits and common people are not necessarily enemies, they can also be friends. You can eat as much as you want, but if you don't have enough, then talk to us," the villager said.
He also quite sympathized with Tiger Boss, even though he was injured, he became a polished commander.
On the side, Han Chang picked up the bowl and stuffed it into his mouth. He was already so hungry that he had no strength.
"If you want to eat, you can figure it out on your own. This belongs to me and my brothers."
The tiger boss kicked Han Chang out.
He still wants to keep these meals for his brothers, but he doesn't know if the brothers will come back.
This time he brought all his confidants, and suddenly I felt like crying.
At the bottom of the mountain, Bai Yan and others were also eating. Qinggong was very happy and the food was particularly delicious.
"Bai Yan, use the bandits to deceive the Sang bandits and lure them away. You can think of this method." Qing Gong was full of praise.
"The bandits are also members of the Daqian Dynasty, and they also have a share of responsibility in resisting the Sang bandits." Bai Yan said.
Are bandits also responsible? This is the first time Qing Gong has heard this. He believes that Bai Yan is a scholar, and only a scholar can say such a thing.
"Furthermore, I am using these bandits not to deceive the Sang Kou, but to attract the Sang Kou." Bai Yan said.
It is his purpose to welcome Acheng and others and ensure their safety. It is also his purpose to attract Sang Kou.
"Attract them here? What are you going to do?" Qing Gong's heart skipped a beat.
"If the Sanco can't find you, they won't return without success. They will inevitably burn, kill, and loot. The people who will suffer are the people. We are so well prepared. If they don't come and can't annihilate them, wouldn't it be a waste?
?" Bai Yan said seriously.
"But if Sanco knew there were bandits nearby, would they come?" the guard questioned.
"Would you believe that bandits appear out of thin air?" Bai Yan explained: "If there are bandits staying here and they find them, they will believe them. But there are bandits who deliberately hang out under their noses,
If they believe it, they are really stupid, and they cannot become a strong enemy of my Dagan Dynasty."
"This is a plan within a plan, high, really high!" Qing Gong couldn't help but applaud.
As a commander-in-chief, he would not believe it if a group of bandits suddenly appeared, and the Sankou would definitely fall into the trap.
The guard was embarrassed for a while and asked: "Master Bai, how did you come up with the idea?"
"If you read a lot, you will learn these things naturally." Bai Yan said calmly.
In his eyes, this is all just childish planning, but in this world, it is no longer childish.
In comparison, there were still too few wise men in the Daqian Dynasty.
About two hours later, the soldiers who left came back and brought back Acheng and others and 10,000 taels of silver.
"Young Master, we were spotted on the road and had to take a detour, which wasted time. If we hadn't met this general brother, we might not have been able to come back." Cheng and Bai Yan explained the situation.
.
Along the way, he was worried. He was afraid that the bandits would be angry because he delayed his trip.
"The target of ten thousand taels of silver is too big. You don't have to blame yourself. Just come back safely." Bai Yan comforted him and then asked, "Is it Sang Kou?"
The lieutenant general responded: "They are the scouts of Sankou. Fortunately we went there in time, otherwise once we attracted Sankou's large army, they would not be able to come back."
"So, my plan was successful. Lord Marquis, prepare for war." Bai Yan said with a smile.
The lieutenant general was startled: "Master Bai, isn't your plan able to misunderstand the enemy and detour him? Why are you still preparing for war?"
Bai Yan smiled and said, "Will Sang Kou let go of ten thousand taels of silver?"
The deputy general was stunned: "Then we have messed up the matter?"
"It's all in the plan, take your people to eat, and prepare for war immediately after eating."
Qing Gong scolded.
The adjutant did not dare to ask any more questions and went to eat with his men.
There's going to be a war soon, and it's not okay to go hungry.
And Bai Yan came to Boss Tiger with ten thousand taels of silver.
"Boss Tiger, I brought you some money."
Boss Tiger looked at Bai Yan with a ghostly look. This was a real gift, but he didn't dare to take it.
"Master Bai, do you really want to give me this money?"
"Of course, since I promised you, I won't break my promise. But Boss Tiger, if you don't do something, I'm afraid you won't be able to take the money away," Bai Yan said.
"What do you want me to do?" Boss Tiger asked.
"If you help the officers and soldiers defend against the enemy, and you have established merit, the Marquis of Zhenbei can also be lenient to you. Otherwise, it will be difficult for you to leave." Bai Yan said solemnly.
It turned out to be the Marquis of Zhenbei? Boss Hu took a breath of air. He knew the Marquis of Zhenbei better than Bai Yan. He was a fierce man. When there was no war, he would not be lazy, but would lead his soldiers to suppress the bandits.
.
Nearly half of the bandits in the North were wiped out by Zhenbei Hou, which is a nightmare.
He smiled bitterly and said: "Master Bai, I am a bandit. Isn't it a little unreasonable for you to let the bandits help the officers and soldiers in the war?"
"What about the bandits? Aren't the bandits citizens of the Daqian Dynasty? Aren't the blood of the Daqian Dynasty flowing in your bodies? When the Sankou invades, as long as they are the people of the Daqian Dynasty, they should take up arms to resist the Sangs.
Kou, this is everyone's responsibility." Bai Yan said sharply.
Am I also responsible for resisting the Sang bandits? Am I also a subject of the Daqian Dynasty?
Boss Hu was stunned. He no longer regarded himself as a common people. When he heard these words, not only did he feel novel, but something in his heart seemed to be hit.
Bai Yan looked at Boss Tiger's reaction and said calmly: "Boss Tiger, please think about it carefully."
After saying that, Bai Yan turned and left.
"Bai Yan, will they help? Or, kill them directly?" Qing Gong made a gesture of wiping his neck.
After all, these bandits were a source of instability. He couldn't arrange for people to keep an eye on the bandits when the war started. Getting rid of these bandits was the best option.
"He will. If he refuses to help, it won't be too late to take action. As long as the tiger boss is killed, those little Luoluo will obey orders obediently." Bai Yan said.
