Chapter 215 Saved Zhao Manman!
Prince Qin Beiyu and the magistrate of Fengyuan County learned about the bandits on Xionglu Ridge.
He looked at the map with sharp eyes. The mountains in the Xionglu Ridge area are all called Xionglu Mountains. They are several consecutive mountaintops with a very complex terrain. The bandits must be hiding in the mountains.
Qin Beiyu thought for a moment and turned to look at his father: "Your Highness, the terrain of Xionglu Mountain is complicated, and the bandits in Xionglu Ridge may not be able to wait for him to come out by himself for a while.
So I plan to lure the snake out of its hole. Tonight, I plan to bring the Qin army and hold torches to protect you as you pass under the Xionglu Mountain.
I will take you to the safe area ahead, which is the flat Panmo Slope. You can rest there under the protection of Lord Jiusheng. I want to fight them head-on!"
Prince Qin Jinan looked at his son with appreciation, nodded and said: "The prince has experienced many battles, I will follow your arrangements, but it is dark and windy at night, I am worried about the safety of the prince and the Qin family army!"
Qin Beiyu looked at the worry in his old father's eyes, and his heart suddenly softened. It was not easy for his father to be both a father and a mother to him for so many years.
"Don't worry, father. Bei Yu has been fighting outside for many years, so it won't be a problem for him to wipe out the bandits. Don't worry!
Lord Jiusheng, please arrange to cook as soon as possible. After the meal, we will move forward. There is a Panmoling in front of us after passing the foot of Xionglu Mountain.
My Lord, please set up camp at Panmo Slope. Please protect His Highness tonight. Thank you for your hard work!"
Jiusheng immediately saluted: "Yes! Prince! Your Highness, I swear to protect your safety until our death!"
Prince Qin Jinan smiled with satisfaction: "Bei Yu, it is the responsibility of our royal family to eliminate bandits for the people. Since you are the son of the crown prince of the Qin Dynasty, it is your duty to eliminate violence and protect the people. Your father is very happy that you have this courage!"
Qin Beiyu nodded: "Father, Beiyu has developed a habit of hating evil and being hostile to evil in the Northern Frontier for many years. In order to protect the people of the Great Qin, Beiyu can do anything!"
Crown Prince Qin Jinan was really pleased. His son's courage and determination were the pride of their royal Qin family!
County Magistrate Wu Kang took off his official uniform and carried it on his back, then changed into casual clothes to help the prince and the Qin family army, collect firewood, carry water, and cook dinner...
Smoke rose from the camp, and soon the aroma of meat wafted into the air. The Qin army, which had about 20,000 soldiers, had a hot meal before dark. The soldiers ate brown rice and cabbage stewed with pork belly to fill themselves up!
The Qin army had their meal, and the aroma of meat spread for more than ten miles!
Thirty miles ahead, on the Buck Ridge, a large group of people were standing in a large yard. They had an operation tonight, so they all gathered together.
The boss of Xionglu Ridge is also a character. He is known as Daxiong in the underworld and is a big bandit leader!
Nobita was originally active in Jiangnan Prefecture, but the power of the Jiangnan Prefecture's Ghost Six Gang grew increasingly powerful, and Nobita could no longer survive in Jiangnan Prefecture, so he came here.
He has been in Buck Deer Ridge for four or five years. The beech wild animals that occupy Buck Deer Ridge have gathered in increasing numbers, and he has become a dominant figure in the area.
Unfortunately, the weather has been dry recently, and there are fewer merchants passing by, so they haven't opened the pot for a long time.
Today, a spy reported that an official returned from Jiangnan Prefecture, escorting a young lady from the official family back to the capital. In a hurry to travel, he will pass by Xiongluling tonight!
Daxiong looked at his 300 men and said, "Brothers who can do the work tonight must come with me to capture that group of people. Hehehe! Capture that official lady and make her your wife!"
Everyone shouted in unison: "Yes! Capture the housekeeper and make her the wife of the big boss!"
Daxiong raised the big knife in his hand and said: "Brothers, tonight I will marry that official lady and make her my wife. The remaining maids and servants will be given to you so that you can enjoy some meat!
The officials' team must have a lot of money and rice, which is exactly what we need in Xiongluling.
The old magistrate of Fengyuan County is ignorant of the current situation. When we have recovered and there is really nothing to eat, we will rush into the county town and kill the old magistrate to vent our anger!"
All the minions in Xiongluling shouted: "Big Boss is mighty! Big Boss is mighty!"
Nobita rode a big donkey and rushed down a hill in Xionglu Ridge with his men.
The bandits came down from the mountain in a mighty procession. On a wide official road at the foot of the mountain, a long team passed by. The long team held torches, like a fire dragon, which made Nobita drool.
"Oh my! What a powerful official this is, he is such a fat sheep!"
After this large group of people passed by, another small group of people came. This small group had about a hundred or eighty people, escorting five or six carriages passing by the foot of the mountain!
Nobita's eyes lit up: "Hahaha! Let's just cut off their tails, and it won't help if we cut off the ones in front!
Brothers, charge!"
Suddenly, the bandits on Daxiong Ridge shouted and screamed excitedly, like evil spirits coming out of the mountains under the night sky!
The Zhao family's team was passing by the foot of the mountain and was instantly startled. The person escorted by the Zhao family was Zhao Manman, the daughter of General Zhao Hai!
Zhao An, the manager of the Zhao family, panicked. He knew that soldiers were coming, but he didn't know where they were from. He drove the carriage forward frantically, shouting, "There are bandits... There are bandits... Help!"
Qin Beiyu, who was riding a horse behind the team, heard the sound on the mountain. He deliberately slowed down the pace of the 5,000 people he left behind and waited for fishing. He asked someone to notify Jiusheng to bring 15,000 people to protect his father, the prince, and rush to Panmopo immediately.
The Qin family army's 20,000-strong team was immediately cut into two. The long large army in front escorted the Crown Prince Qin Jinan and rushed forward, while Qin Beiyu led his men to fight back!
As a result, they had just walked back two miles when they ran into the Zhao family team. Zhao An shouted loudly: "We are from the Zhao Hai family of the General's Mansion! General, please help us!
In order to rush back to Beijing as soon as possible to celebrate the Queen's birthday, my young lady traveled at night. There were a large number of bandits chasing us. Please help us, General!
We are really the family of General Zhao Hai..."
Qin Beiyu nodded and said, "Come here! Protect the carriage, and the rest of you will form a battle formation and go into the forest to cut off the retreat. Don't leave any of the bandits alive!"
Nobita and his men rode on a big donkey, and the donkey rushed over first!
After rushing over, they saw a dark group of people. All the torches were extinguished, but some torches were still lit in front of the carriages. It could be seen that four or five carriages were driven together and surrounded by officers and soldiers!
Daxiong wiped his cheek greedily and said with a smile: "The soldiers are just bluffing, they are all wimps, charge! Drag the official's daughter out, put her on a big donkey and carry her back home as the wife of the leader of the group, charge... charge!"
Qin Beiyu saw the leader, a big man on a big donkey. His eyes were so sharp that they seemed able to kill people.
Nobita felt a cold light shooting towards him. He turned around and saw a man with cold eyes sitting on a tall horse. It was so eerie and scary!
The man's hair stood on end instinctively. He suddenly had a bad feeling. The soles of his feet felt cold and his head felt cold. Nobita turned around on his donkey and wanted to run away.
But the bandits were stupid and still yelling with pickaxes and rakes, trying to rob the official lady. You can imagine what they would encounter...
Nobita was so frightened that he rode on his donkey, wanting to run away first, but he didn't know who Qin Beiyu was.
Qin Beiyu rode his horse straight over and chased after the big donkey.
Nobita rode on his big donkey and kept shouting, "Gee...Gee! Why can't this big donkey run anymore? Run faster...I feed you so well on weekdays that you can't even run...Ahhh!"
Just as the man was complaining that the donkey could not run fast, he suddenly felt a cold wind blowing from his back. Nobita instinctively turned his head back, and suddenly he shouted, and was chopped down by Qin Beiyu with a knife!
Qin Beiyu chopped the bandit leader off his horse and split him in half. The big donkey screamed and ran away in fear...
"Qianqing Wanqing, follow the donkey. Just follow behind it. It will take you back to the bandit village. Once you get there, don't ask any questions. All men will be killed!
If there are women, they are probably kidnapped. Rescue them together and send them to the county government tomorrow. After clearing out the bandit’s nest, there is no need to keep anything.”
I have received your order!
Qian Qing Wan Qing was like a god of death. He appeared in black clothes in the dark night and instantly appeared beside Qin Beiyu. He took the order and led a group of people to run away following the big donkey.
A few hundred bandits were not enough for the Qin army to deal with. In just a quarter of an hour, more than three hundred people were killed!
Qin Beiyu looked at the torches lit at the scene and saw the dead bodies scattered all over the ground. He nodded and said, "Clean up the battlefield, burn the dead bodies and count the number of people!"
The men came to the front of the carriages. The leader, Zhao An, came to Qin Beiyu's horse, knelt on his knees and said gratefully: "I am Zhao An, the manager of the Zhao Mansion. I am escorting the eldest daughter to the capital to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday.
Because the young lady caught a cold a few days ago and was sick on the road for a few days, I was worried that I would not be able to catch the Queen Mother's birthday, so I traveled at night. Tonight, I encountered a large number of thieves. Thanks to the prince for saving me. On behalf of the Zhao family, I am grateful!"
Qin Beiyu: "Okay, I'm glad you're alright. Lead your team forward, and follow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's team tonight and enter the capital together!
His Royal Highness's troops are resting at Panmo Slope. You should go there as soon as possible. I will stay here to clean up this gang of bandits and restore peace to Fengyuan County."
As they were talking, the door of a carriage opened and a young girl got out. In the light of the torches, it could be seen that this girl was full of heroic spirit and indeed looked a bit like General Zhao Hai.
The girl came to Qin Beiyu's horse, looked at the man in a daze for a moment, and quickly bowed: "Zhao Manman thanks the prince for saving my life!"
