Chapter 287: Grain robbery

When Jimu heard that Gao Yi had arrived, he hurried out to greet him. "Mr. Gao Qian, thank you all the way, where is the army now?"

Gao Yi bowed and bowed to Jimu and said, "I have arrived at the east bank of Weihe River. If you walk closer, you will probably be discovered by those bastards. I asked them to stop and take a break. Come and discuss with you how to fight this battle?"

Ji Mu nodded and said, "General Zhou Shen has already decided on the specific combat plan in advance. Please read the General Gao Shen."

As he said that, Jimu picked up a branch and drew it on the ground, saying, "The grain transport team will set off from Wacheng at the fifth hour and will reach Yuerpu in the evening. In the middle, if the bandits take action, the best choice should be in Bozize. This is about three hours away from Yishan where Zhao Yi is located and Wang Sanmazi of Yunmen Mountain, which means that they are going to rob this batch of grain and set off tonight."

Gao Yi nodded and said, "At dawn, I will attack their nests. Yunmen Mountain is steep and Yishan is vast. First take down Yunmen Mountain, then go down Yishan, and directly take their nests."

Jimu shook his head and said, "General Gao Qian, General Zhou Shen means that two mountains must be taken down at the same time. Otherwise, it will be easy to reveal our army's plan and cause things to fail in the end."

Gao Yi was stunned for a moment, "But I only have one soldier from a thousand-person team!"

Jimu smiled and said, "Mr. Gao Qian, don't worry, come here to see."

Gao Yi looked at the tiger squat cannons and shells in front of him in shock and said, "Are these Yu Baiyi's artillery team?"

Jimu nodded and said, "The twenty-five tiger squat cannons in the camp, General Zhou Shen has transferred twenty of you. Two thousand shells, sixty gunners, and the two hundred cavalry under my rule will also be dispatched by you. With current strength, Mr. Gao Qian should be confident in taking these two hills!"

Gao Yi chuckled and said, "With these things, I will flatten them directly. By the way, how can I deal with those bandits who went out to rob grain?"

Jimu replied: "Let them rob, and they will take food on the way back and move slowly. I will also lead the remaining 200 cavalry to delay their return speed as much as possible. When you take down their nests, you will lead the troops north. Lingu, thirteen miles away from Yishan, is their only way back to the mountain. If you ask Mr. Gao Qian to set up an ambush there, you will definitely succeed in one fell swoop."

Gao Yi nodded with a smile, "Okay, let them have a pot there."

Jimu said: "General Gao Qian, my subordinates must remind you that you can break these two mountains for up to four hours. And you need to ensure that no bandits can escape from the mountain, at least they cannot let them escape north, so that the bandits outside can know that their nests have been occupied by our army. Otherwise, they will flee in the middle of the journey, and new threats will inevitably arise. Give you the two hundred riders to block the bandits' escape route."

Gao Yi frowned, lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and finally nodded, "Don't worry! I know that General Gao Shen gave me this time his great achievements, and I will definitely not let him down."

Li Xiong gave the information that there were about 100 grain guards and a considerable number of escorts. The number was not large, but there were many village warriors and official troops in Wacheng and Yuerpu. If it was delayed for a long time, things would inevitably add new troubles when they arrived. Therefore, the grain transport team must be won as soon as possible, and this requires maintaining sufficient military strength advantage.

After Zhao Yi and Wang Sanmazi discussed, the two mountains sent a total of 1,200 bandits, which basically accounted for half of the total number. The two led their troops to set off at the third update, holding a torch and moving in the dark. When it was approaching dawn, they finally arrived at Boerze. The troops hid and waited quietly.

Zhao Yi looked at the endless grain transport team, and a long-lost smile flashed on his face. Laizhou famine, robbery of grain, but the problem of food is always a big problem. He knew the situation in the mountains best. Although there is a lot of gold and silver, all the food can only last for two months at most. If this batch of food can be robbed, there will be no worries about food for at least a few months. He smiled and said to Wang Mazi: "Brother Mazi, let the brothers start!"

Wang Sanmazi was already impatient. When he heard Zhao Yi's words, he raised his knife and shouted loudly: "Brothers, rob him."

Seeing nearly a thousand bandits roaring from the mountain, the grain transport team suddenly fell into chaos. Most of them scattered in birds and beasts and fled in the opposite direction. The only elite men stepped forward and cut off the reins with a knife, and fled backwards on mules and horses, and fled faster than the initials.

Wang Sanmazi didn't chase after him, and stepped forward and cut the sack with a knife, revealing white rice inside. He laughed and shouted loudly: "Brothers, we won't be short of food in the future!"

Zhao Yi then walked forward and saw everything in front of him, his brows frowned. The smoothness of things was a bit too unexpected. These escort guards basically ran away without any resistance. He also knew that these guards were not the main force of the official army and had poor combat power, but there was not even a single person to resist. This was a bit strange. But now the matter was successful, it was finally a happy thing. He no longer thought about it and called Wang Sanmazi and said, "Brother Mazi, let's transport all the food back quickly! So as not to change things."

Wang Sanmazi cursed casually and cursed: "Brother Zhao, this group of soldiers is really not a fucking thing. If they escape, they will run away! In order to escape quickly, they also unloaded the mules and horses that were carrying food. This time we came, there were not many mules and horses, and some of them had to be pulled back by the brothers. I'm afraid there would be a little more time spent in the meantime."

Zhao Yi frowned again, thought for a while, and said, "Brother Mazi, I think we should leave as soon as possible. Let's do this! Put all the horses we brought on the cart, and let the brothers pull the ones that don't have. In addition, send a hundred brothers to the nearby villages and try to find some mules and horses."

Wang Sanmazi nodded and sighed: "It seems that we can only do this now. I will organize my brothers to transport grain." Wang Mazi had just taken a few steps and suddenly turned around and said to Zhao Yi: "Brother Zhao, this grain has been robbed successfully. We should discuss some things. You talk about these grains, how should we divide them then!"

Zhao Yi smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Brother Mazi, we have known each other for nearly ten years. When did I, Zhao, treat my brothers badly? You, half of me, and half of me, I will not take more than one grain of food."

Wang Sanmazi laughed and said, "I knew that Brother Zhao was the most loyal. If you have any business in the future, I will listen to you in your entirety."
