All Hail Cousin Brother

Mr. Li took a breath and lowered his head. The meaning of the Shaoyi County Master was that the yamen could not stay out of it.

Yu Youyao looked up at Master Li: "What do you think, Master Li?"

Mr. Li only felt that when the Shaoyi County Lord looked at him, there was a coldness in his eyes, which made his scalp numb, and he was sweating coldly, and he quickly lowered his head: "Yes, yes, yes, the County Lord said yes. ."

...

After the imperial court issued the national policy, the Empress Dowager also issued another decree: King Wu Mu Dingbei must protect the safety of the Shaoyi County Lord, and the Shaoyi County Lord should obey the etiquette, according to the courtesy of the princess of the current dynasty, must not be neglected and neglected. It is related to the affairs of Shaoyi County Master, and King Wumu should be careful and pay attention to it.

This decree seems to be aimed only at the Lord of Shaoyi County, but it can be broken and analyzed. Using the name of the Lord of Shaoyi County, King Wu Mu Dingbei can do even more.

The lord of Shaoyi County is righteous and benevolent, and came to the north for the sake of the thousands of victims of the Great Zhou Dynasty. It is also logical to act in the name of the lord of Shaoyi County, and it will not be put into practice.

Therefore, Huang Wenxian also brought a lieutenant in the army this time to **** the Lord of Shaoyi County.

The highest general in the army is the commander-in-chief.

Under the commander-in-chief, there is also the hussar general, which was established to fight foreign enemies and resist invasion. It is a second-rank rank, and can be awarded General Jinwu, General Longhu, and the status is second only to the commander-in-chief.

The Marquis of Changxing was taken back to Beijing earlier, and the hussar general was guarding the northern border.

There is also a special title, which usually does not have a post, but is appointed by the emperor when necessary, that is, the Expeditionary Army (East, South, West, North), responsible for the crusade. General of the Eastern Conquest.

The size of the rank depends on the size of the army. The army is ordered by the emperor and not under the jurisdiction of local generals.

Under the hussars are the generals of Fengguo, who are generally held by children of the clan.

Below it are Zhaowu, Anyuan...

They are all generals who have led troops and are collectively referred to as lieutenants.

All the generals in the army who can be promoted to lieutenant generals are experienced in hundreds of battles and have great achievements in battle. The one who accompanied Huang Wenwen is General An Yuan, who is from the third rank and is also a veteran of the army.

General An Yuan was in his early forties. He was tall and tall. He wore cotton armor and wore two knives, one long and one short, on his waist. One was a Tang knife and the other was a saber. , Every step is awe-inspiring, just the momentum of the battle can make people breathless.

General An Yuan said: "The mountain bandits entrenched in the Anshan area are indeed some extremely vicious people. They not only loot property and hurt people's lives, but also do not let go of old and young women and children. They will also forcefully rob good-looking women. In just four or three months, hundreds of crimes have been committed, and more than 200 murders have been committed."

Yesterday, the little princess was looking for him and brought up the bandit suppression, so he sent someone out to inquire about the news.

"In addition, I also inquired that during this period of time, in the adjacent areas of Anshan, children between the ages of five and ten were often lost and reported to the case, which was verified by the yamen, and recorded ten cases. There must have been cases, and if there were no accidents, they should have done it too.”

Yu Youyao's face was not very good, as if there was a stone stuck in his chest, the mountain bandits were extremely vicious, what did they do to arrest children? Is it fun to kill or keep fun?

In the year of famine, the tragedies of the hungry people eating each other and changing children to eat often occur.

If that's what she guessed, then...

She pursed her lips suddenly.

There are thieves and robbers, and bandits have justice. There are different levels of bandit troubles in various regions. If the scale is not reached, the imperial court will not send troops. The government has limited capabilities, and no one has the ability to suppress bandits. Robbing property without hurting people's lives, the government basically opens one eye and closes one eye.

If you are more aggressive, the government will also come forward to negotiate.

Mountain bandits are all for money, they may not be afraid of the government, but the trouble is too big, the government has to intervene, which is also very troublesome for them.

There are even local officials who simply cooperate with the bandits.

If you choose the rich to start, you will benefit from it. If the mountain bandits make a fortune, you can squander it for a long time, and the local area can live in peace for a long time, and it will not cause too bad influence.

Master Li is anxious to suppress the bandits, not only because of the large number of these bandits, it is very difficult.

The bottom line is that the mountain bandits have lost their morality.

The government cannot negotiate or cooperate. If it is not resolved as soon as possible, they will only become more and more rampant, causing too much trouble, and the future of Master Li is almost over.

Huang Wenxian laid out a map of the Anshan area and analyzed: "The spies sneaked into the yamen and read the case files about the mountain bandits. It can basically be inferred that they will be there." He glanced slightly and stretched his finger to a point on the map: "This location."

The little princess did not expressly promise to intervene in the bandit incident. The case file was confidential to the government and could not be easily consulted, but she could not guard against spies in the army.

The mountain bandits, who are very difficult in the eyes of the government, have nothing to hide from Huang Wenwen, who has experienced hundreds of battles.

General An Yuan looked at the map: "It's the same as my calculated position."

After so many years of fighting, what kind of battle has not been fought? As long as you look at the map, you can see at a glance where it is suitable for concealment, where it is suitable for ambush, and where it is suitable for rest.

Yu Youyao watched for a while, and also saw a bit of doorway: "Send someone to inquire about it first, and we will discuss the specific situation later."

General An Yuan and Huang Wenwen nodded.

On the second day, the scouts who went to inquire about the news came back with the news: "There is indeed a bandit village in the mountains, with about 400 people, equipped with good weapons. It is difficult to attack, if we take action, we can take it down in half a day.”

Another scout said, "My subordinate found a village in a remote mountain in Anshan, but there were only old people and children in the village, so I went to the yamen to inquire. There are about thirty households in that village, and they have lived there for generations. place."

Therefore, the bandits cannot come from the village.

So where have all the young and middle-aged people in the village gone?

General An Yuan and Huang Wenwen's eyes moved slightly, and they all looked at Yu Youyao, do you want to kill this bandit? How to suppress it? Will it implicate His Highness? It all depends on what Yu Youyao means.

Therefore, they will not make up their minds easily.

Yu Youyao frowned and said thoughtfully, "Are all the people in the village being held hostage by bandits?"

Usually the mountain bandits keep the villagers. If the government wants to suppress the bandits, they will pull the hostages out.
