However, something happened the next day.
Since they had nothing else to do, Dian Wei and Xu Zhu ran up the mountain and killed a few deer. At noon, the few brothers and the strategists were gathered together to drink. Just as he was getting excited, he suddenly ran towards the northern sentry to report.
"Reporting, Sir, the North Dashing outpost has been beaten. Just now, there were a dozen or so people who wanted to pass Wang Family Shan Chong, but were detained by the sentry, saying that they were going to leave the mountain. Who knew that these guys would actually attack, injure the sentry, and run into the mountains. Before the leader left, he left behind a message to destroy Wang Family Shan Chong. "
"Oh …"
Who dared to go against the cavalry of Youzhou after eating a leopard's gall bladder? You dare to come up and challenge me? Isn't this what a tiger's mouth should be like? The brothers immediately stood up in anger, they extended their hands and grabbed the beasts, causing Yang Lin to feel a little angry as well. ))
"Do you know who they are?"
The sentry was breathing heavily. He wiped the sweat off his forehead and continued to report.
"Reporting to Master, we have asked our relatives in Wang Family Shan Chong. They said that those people were from Qin Village, and the one leading them was Qin Village's chief's nephew, Li Bing. Qin Village was still deep in the mountains, and was extremely savage.
"Savage?"
No matter how savage I am, I can't injure my sentries! After fighting for such a long time, they still liked to fight savages. It seemed that they needed to be taught a lesson. Maybe because Yang Lin drank a little too much, he had an impulse and immediately waved towards the sentry.
"Go and beat up a few of the villagers who are familiar with them. I want to ask them what's going on."
Everyone sat down again and waited for the sentry to find someone. They didn't even want to drink anymore. Not long later, the sentry found a few older villagers. Those villagers may have also been bullied by the officials before, they were really afraid that they would cause trouble for them, hence they trembled with fear and came to Yang Lin's tent.
"Fellow villagers, do not be afraid, I will not cause trouble for you. I just want to ask you guys, what exactly are those people from the Qin Village doing. "
Mentioning the Qin Village, those villagers seemed a little nervous, exchanging looks with each other held a little fear. In the end, it was the old man who coughed a few times and answered carefully.
"To tell you the truth, Master, what does Qin Village say? They usually farm and rob houses when they have nothing to do. The Old Stronghold Owner was called Qin Zhi, and it made two 40 jin of mountain ax difficult to get close to 100 people. His two sons were even more powerful, the eldest son was called Qin Ming, and the last one was called Qin Liang, with the two 60 jin ghost slaying blades, their power was immense, and their martial arts were strong. He also had two daughters, who were called Qin Yi and Qin Yao. That Qin Village has a dangerous and powerful martial arts background, and has been a bandit for hundreds of years. The small group of bandits in this Fuyoshan did not dare to offend them, and after going to the battlefield a few times, they would always be defeated and return.
So that's how it is, even the people are bandits, and that's why the mountain people are fierce. If he didn't use this opportunity to kill them, it could be considered killing people. As a bandit for three generations, they had stolen countless treasures and destroyed the entire Qin Village. They might even be able to make a small fortune.
"Gramps, how many people are there in the Qin Village?"
"Lord, I dare not say so. None of us have ever been to the Qin Village, so we don't know how many people there are. However, I heard that there are 16 villages with a radius of ten miles, which is about tens of thousands of people. "
"Is the path to the mountain good? Can we ride it? "
"Master, the road to the mountain is not easy, but I can ride a horse. From Wang Family Shan Chong to Qin Village, it would take around one day and one night. Along the way, there were almost no villages, only a few families. However, many families were Qin Village's spies. I'm afraid the moment you guys enter, the people of Qin Village will get the news. "
"Oh? Could it be that there are shortcuts that allowed them to get there before us?"
"That's not true. I heard they have an exceptionally quick method of communication. The soldiers were ambushed a few times by the bandits, but they were always ambushed on the way. The way to the mountain is high and dangerous, and if thousands of people are ambushed, they will be thrown down the mountain, and if tens of thousands of people are hit on the rocks, they won't be able to get through. "
"So you're saying, we can't get into the mountain."
"Master, there is a way. "You can send a small number of people to capture all the families that are on the way. Then, you can enter the mountain if no letters from them can be spread."
"Haha, Gramps, you can be a Military Advisor now. Brothers, I have the intention to annihilate this Qin Village, what do you think? "
Zhang Fei was already furious, he did not care about the people of Qin Village, but since Qin Village dared to injure the cavalry of Youzhou Sentinel, he could not take this lying down. He put his wine cup on the table fiercely.
"I should kill them all. I want to see just how powerful that old fellow's mountain ax is."
Dian Wei and Xu Zhu were also so angry that they wanted to take revenge, especially when they heard that some mountain ax s, Absolute Soul Saber and Ghost Slaying Sabre were powerful, they wanted to fight. Pan Feng and Yu She did not say anything and nodded in agreement. Guan Yu slowly stroked his beautiful beard and opened his beautiful phoenix eyes.
"Bandit generation after generation. When they meet us, it should be the end of them. Let's go destroy them."
Just as the brothers were filled with anger and wanted to destroy the Qin Village, Zhang Ling who had been silent all this time put down the wine cup in his hand and coughed lightly, interrupting their anger.
Master, we still have to wait for a chance to attack the xanthopanax. If we run over to destroy the Qin Village, what would happen if there is an enemy here?
Although he still had the mission of exterminating the Nanyang Yellow Scarf Army, but the temptation of exterminating the Qin Village was too great. Who knew how many treasures and valuables the Qin Village stole? He should have had enough time. If he didn't take the treasures, he wouldn't even be able to drink the wine.
"We still have to prepare two days for the officers and soldiers to attack the Wan City, and five days for the attack. With these seven days, are we still not able to defeat the Qin Village?"
After discussing for awhile, they all felt that it would be feasible, and decided to set off immediately, leaving behind Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Xin Ping, ten thousand cavalrymen, logistics members, rations and supplies. After looking for a few guides who were familiar with the mountain path, Yang Lin took the twenty thousand elite riders to the Qin Village.
Just as they were about to leave, Yang Lin called Xia Chen and Zhu Kan over and whispered some orders to them.
"Bring along the exorcism's team, dress up as hunters, and quietly enter the mountain. Arrest all the houses along the way, we will follow closely behind you, and do not let them send out any letters."
"Understood."
After entering the mountains, Yang Lin finally understood how difficult the mountain path the old man spoke of was. There were almost no flat ground, and if it was not going up the mountain or down the mountain, the war horses would become a stepping stone and the cavalry would lose their power.
It was the first day of July, a hot summer day. Unexpectedly, the weather in the mountain was a little cold. The blue sky and the bright red sun hung in the sky, but the heat seemed to be gone.
The mountain wind blew gently, as if feeling the cool of autumn. Looking around, the entire mountain was green, all kinds of trees were lush and verdant, dense and light green, covering the rolling hills. With the wind blowing, Lin Tao could be seen all around, like the deep breath of the mountains, giving one a mysterious and distant feeling.
What was most fascinating was the stream rushing down from the high cove. The spring was as clear as a living crystal, noisy, swirling, foaming, snaking through the rocky valley.
Along the way, caught over a hundred families, with almost a thousand villagers. What shocked Yang Lin the most was that there were over thirty families that had Eagles s. He really did not understand the purpose of these mountain dwellers raising these fierce birds. However, he was very interested in this kind of fierce bird and ordered Xia Chen and Zhu Kan to capture them all.
In the afternoon of the second day, Yang Lin and the others finally arrived at Qin Village.
The Qin Village's chief, Qin Zhi, was lying in the shade enjoying the cool when suddenly a Eagles landed on her shoulder. He used his hands to hold the Eagles in his hands and untied a piece of thin cloth from the Eagles's leg.
"Quick, ring the gong. Gather all the men in the stronghold."
The servant by Qin Zhi's side immediately replied, but after searching for a long time, he was still unable to find the gong. After so many years, the Qin Village had already stopped ringing the gong, and the gong had disappeared into the distance. Just as he was running around in a panic, he suddenly saw a maid holding a washbasin and grabbing it.
"Dang, dang, dang, dang …"
"The soldiers are coming, the soldiers are coming …"
As the emergency gongs quickly sounded in the village, young men looked around in shock. Only after hearing the shouts did he understand what was going on, and he quickly put down what he was doing and ran up the Walls.
Looking at the young men running towards the walls of the Qin Village, Yang Lin did not give the order to attack. After a day and a night of travelling, everyone had worked hard. Yang Lin ordered for the camp to be set up, and a camp to be set up on the hillside opposite the Qin Village.
While they were camping, Yang Lin took advantage of the situation to stand on the hillside with Zhang Ling and the rest of his brothers to observe the Qin Village from afar. The entire Dazhai was situated at the top of the mountain with their backs against the thousands of mountains. There was only one path, and it was narrow, so the cavalry could not use it. If they wanted to break through the mountain stronghold, they would probably suffer a lot of casualties.
"Mr. Zhang Ling, look at the steep roads in Qin Village, it is easy to defend but hard to attack, do you have any clever plans?"
"Master, the Qin Village is easy to defend and hard to attack, why do we have to attack, we have to attack the place that we have to save, and lure the Yang family down the mountain."
Yang Lin blinked his eyes a few times. In this vast mountain, where was the place where the Yang Family must save the rest of their people? They were not xanthopanax, this was their home, they could eat and drink while staying in the mountains, they could even run deeper into the mountains if they did not want to win, why would they need to go down the mountain?
"Mr. Zhang Ling, please speak clearly."
Hearing that, Zhang Ling smiled slightly, he raised his hand and pointed at the big mountains around the Yang family.
"Master, this is your hunter's plan. If you catch the young of your prey, then the prey will definitely come and fight you to the death. In the past, when officers and soldiers came to attack Qin Village, they would only think of attacking the stronghold. They did not know that even if they managed to capture the stronghold, the Qin family would not be able to do anything even if they fled into the mountains. And the reason why the Qin family could survive here for a long time was because of these villagers. If we send all of these villagers to the outside of the mountain, the Qin Village would be like a fish without water. The families that helped guard the village are all at the foot of the mountain. I dare say that once we capture the villagers, the Qin family will come and fight us to the death. "
Yang Lin was enlightened. Weren't these villagers the Qin family's weak point? I'll send all of them to the Youzhou, and see what you can do to hide in the mountains.
"Send the order down, leave behind two cavalry units to keep an eye on Qin Village. Everyone else is out to capture him, grab her food and sweep Qin Village clean."
