Chapter 2468 Situation (1)
Murong Lingran, his brothers, and Wu Zhunrui also stepped forward.
When Lord Xue heard the words, he had no choice but not to force him, saying: "The bandits have grown to about 8,000 people now, because they claim that as long as they join them, they will have meat to eat. Many disaster victims can't bear the temptation, so they join in.”
"Originally, there were more people who wanted to join, but Xiaguan has sent people to publicize them all over the past few days, saying that you are going to bring troops soon, and the bandits will definitely be dead. The few disaster victims abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, otherwise the scale of the bandits is estimated to have reached tens of thousands."
"But they are like the rats crossing the street. Everyone shouts and beats them. They went to the border some time ago to borrow 10,000 soldiers and drove them temporarily into Bailan Mountain and Qianli Mountain. They also have their people in other places, and they will also cause some trouble. , it is very disturbing.”
"Originally, Xiaguan wanted to continue to use the soldiers from the border to pacify the chaos, but not long after the army moved, the people of Chongyan Kingdom began to increase their troops. Xiaguan was afraid that the people of Chongyan Kingdom would really attack Xuanqing Kingdom, so he had to quickly take them out. I went back, but I had no choice but to ask the court for help."
"The Saiyuan Mansion is heavily guarded during the day, and the robbers usually don't go down the mountain, but at night, they will loot on horseback."
"People outside the city are worried that they will be the next target to be robbed, so basically they have already fled to the city. Whether it is the county seat or the prefectural city, they are already full of people at this time."
After he finished speaking, he glanced around and lowered his voice: "Xiaguan's spies among the robbers just passed the news that they have had little harvest outside the city recently, and the next target of robbery is very likely to be this Bailan. city."
Ning'an Hou said: "Are the robbers on the two mountains all targeting Bailan City?"
"No." Xue Zhongli said: "The news from the spies in Qianli Mountain said that the bandits in Bailan Mountain and Qianli Mountain belonged to different leaders. The names of the leaders were Jiang Yangshan and Yi Gaolian. Yi Gaolian was originally Jiang Yangshan's worshipper. Brother, he used to be the guard of a small guard office in Saiyuan Mansion, but because of disagreement, Yi Gaolian went out alone with those who were willing to follow him."
"Jiang Yangshan is a more impulsive person, and he does everything with brute force, and the characters of his subordinates are similar to him, but Yi Gaolian is a more stable person. According to the report of the spies, Yi Gaolian wants to see if Jiang Yangshan can attack the city this time. If I succeed, I also want to test the details of the city. If Jiang Yangshan succeeds, Yi Gaolian will follow suit and attack other cities. If he fails, he will not attack the city again."
Murong Zong said: "The fact that we have brought 30,000 troops here is very likely to have spread throughout the entire Saiyuan Mansion. They estimate that they will cancel the idea of ??attacking Bailan City."
Ning Anhou nodded: "There are many people in the city, and we must not let them get close to Bailan City. Otherwise, there will be civil strife in the city, and the situation will not necessarily be lighter than being attacked, and we must take the initiative to attack."
On the way, he also told his grandchildren the route, so he turned his head and said: "We can't sit still and wait for others to attack, Azong, you and General Wu will lead your troops to Bailan Mountain, Axuan and Akuan, you two People lead troops to Qianli Mountain, and when they encounter bandits, those who surrender will stay, and those who refuse to surrender will be executed on the spot.”
