The old man glanced sideways at his son and scolded: "You are already dozens of years old, and you don't even have the slightest bit of composure!"
There is always a shortage of strange people in the world. Jin Feng discovered the weather anomaly and speculated that the next few years might be years of famine. Others also speculated.
Among the strange people gathered by the Xie family, there was one who was good at observing astronomical phenomena and also liked to collect relevant information from various ancient books, and he also made the same speculation.
Therefore, the Xie family has spent a lot of gold and silver in the past year or two and hoarded a huge amount of food.
After working hard for more than a year, all the grain depots have been robbed. As the head of the Xie family, how could a middle-aged man not be anxious?
However, the Xie family has a very strict family tradition. Even though the middle-aged man is the head of the family and is scolded by the old man, he can only lower his head and force himself to calm down before raising his head again and asking: "What my father taught me is that this matter is a bit tricky.
The child is impatient!"
"It's just a group of bandits, what's so troublesome?" the old man said nonchalantly.
"Father, these are not ordinary bandits..."
The middle-aged man thought that he had not explained clearly just now and wanted to explain it again, but as soon as he said a word, he was interrupted by the old man.
"No matter what kind of bandits they are, as long as they are bandits, they are bandits!"
The old man said calmly: "If you encounter bandits, if you don't report them to the officials and ask the officials to send troops to suppress the bandits, what are you doing here?"
"Invite the officials to suppress the bandits?"
The eyes of the middle-aged man and Mr. Chen who were kneeling on the ground lit up at the same time.
Yes, no matter who robbed the granary, they were bandits.
As long as they are bandits, the government will take care of them.
The special operations team sent by the Ninth Princess only killed Prince Xiang's family and plundered the property in Prince Xiang's palace, but ignored other officials.
Therefore, the government and officials in various places are still there, and government departments are still operating reluctantly.
It's just that in the past, the bandits didn't dare to provoke Mr. Chen and the others, and since this matter was of great importance, they didn't dare to make the decision privately, so they didn't think about it in this regard.
"Father, from the descriptions of Chen Er and others, this group of bandits is not weak in combat power. We hope that the soldiers from Changling County may not be able to defeat them, right?"
The middle-aged man said worriedly: "Besides, the discipline of the soldiers is too poor."
The soldiers of the government are not good at fighting, but they are all good at fighting and playing cards. If it were a peaceful and prosperous time, the generals of the soldiers might not dare to offend the Xie family, but now that the world is in chaos, it is hard to say whether the soldiers of the government will still be obedient.
It would also be very troublesome if the government soldiers occupied the granary and in turn threatened the Xie family.
"The government soldiers can't defeat them, can't you help the government soldiers?" the old man said angrily.
The middle-aged man didn't get angry when he was scolded. Instead, he secretly praised him in his heart, saying that he is still smarter with age.
Yes, the government soldiers may not be able to defeat the bandits, but Mr. Chen and others have raised many private soldiers, and the combat effectiveness of these private soldiers is much stronger than the government soldiers.
Asking the government soldiers to take action is just an excuse to take the moral high ground. When it comes to actual combat, wouldn't it be enough to send in your own private soldiers? Bayi Chinese website
Seeing that his son understood what he meant, the old man returned to his previous compassion, sighed and left.
Half an hour later, Master Chen and the others left the small mountain village and went back to gather their troops.
The Xie family has been entrenched in the south of the Yangtze River for hundreds of years. Almost all important officials in the surrounding counties have received favors from the Xie family. It may be necessary to consider letting them work for the Xie family, but asking them to send a few soldiers to cooperate with the Xie family in suppressing bandits will
Still no problem.
Early the next morning, the bandit suppression team set out.
In name, they are government soldiers suppressing bandits. In fact, except for the few people at the front who are government soldiers, the rest are all private soldiers secretly cultivated by the Xie family.
As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake. The Xie family gathered several private soldiers overnight, which were several times the number of bodyguards.
In fact, according to the laws of Dakang, it is an extremely serious crime to secretly build a private army. If it were before, the Xie family would not dare to be so arrogant, but now the old emperor has been killed, the four princes have also escaped, and Prince Xiang and other vassal kings have also been arrested.
The Ninth Princess has been killed and the world is in chaos. Who can control them?
Therefore, Master Chen and others not only gathered private soldiers, but also equipped many private soldiers with armor and standard weapons such as spears. They looked more formal than the government soldiers.
The south bank of the Yangtze River is the granary of good harvests.
Mr. Chen led his private soldiers through the reed swamps and headed towards the granary.
In the granary, an escort squad leader put down his telescope and said worriedly: "Captain Wan, are there too many people here?"
They only came in two companies, with less than 300 people at full strength, but the other party had more than 1,000 people walking out of the reed swamps at this time.
Moreover, it was impossible to see how many people there were in the reed marsh.
"A bunch of rabble actually hid people in the reeds. Such idiots, no matter how many people there are, what do they have to be afraid of?"
Battalion Commander Wan sneered: "Notify Catapult No. 1, 2, and 3, and ask them to replace the kerosene jar and aim at the reed swamp!"
Mr. Chen hid the person in the reeds just to bluff and scare the bodyguard.
But he forgot that although it was already spring, the reeds had just sprouted small buds, and the reed swamps were full of old dry reeds from last year, which were growing quickly.
This is the difference between elite veterans and the rabble.
Mr. Chen didn't realize this at this time. He rode a tall war horse and slowly came to the front of the granary. He shouted loudly: "Call your boss out. I have something to say to him!"
"You're just a piece of shit, just a guard dog of the Xie family, and you want to meet our boss?"
An escort company commander shouted loudly: "Get out of here, or I will chop off your dog's head!"
"He really knows the Xie family!"
When Mr. Chen heard this, he couldn't help but narrowed his eyes.
"Brother, since you know the Xie family, you should know the importance!"
Mr. Chen shouted: "In Changling County, no one can escape unharmed after offending the Xie family! But Mr. Xie is compassionate and thinks that you may be hungry, so he won't care about you. You can leave now.
How about we stop pursuing it and send you another three thousand loads of grain as transportation?"
"Do you think I am a beggar, and you want to send me away with three thousand loads of grain?"
The company commander said coldly: "If you want to sneak attack me when we retreat, you should give up. This granary will be decided by me!"
Go back and tell the man named Xie that he should be sensible and send all his belongings to Miaomiao Gou as soon as possible. Our boss will be happy, and maybe he can be spared. Otherwise, when our boss comes in person in the future, he, named Xie, will want to beg for mercy again.
It’s too late!”
"It seems you are determined not to leave, right?"
Mr. Chen narrowed his eyes.
"Why, are you threatening your father? If you have any means, just use it!" the escort company commander said nonchalantly.
"There is a way to heaven but you don't take it; there is no door to hell but you insist on breaking through it!"
Mr. Chen waved his hand towards the back: "Surround them for me!"
"Brother Shen!"
"Um!"
When Shen Changqing walks on the road and meets familiar people, he will say hello or nod to each other.
But no matter who it is.
There is no unnecessary expression on everyone's face, as if they are indifferent to everything.
Regarding this.
Shen Changqing has become accustomed to it.
Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, an organization that maintains the stability of the Qin Dynasty. Its main responsibility is to kill monsters and monsters. Of course, it also has some other side jobs.
It can be said.
Everyone in the Demon Suppression Division has a lot of blood on their hands.
When a person is used to seeing life and death, he will become indifferent to many things.
When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but he got used to it over time.
The Demon-Suppressing Division is huge.
Those who can stay in the Demon Suppressing Division are all powerful masters, or those who have the potential to become masters.
Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.
Among them, the Demon Suppressor Division is divided into two professions, one is the Guardian Envoy and the other is the Demon Slayer.
Anyone who enters the Demon Slayer Department starts from the lowest level as a demon slayer.

Then he will be promoted step by step, and eventually he is expected to become a guardian envoy.
Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level among the demon slayers.
Possess the memory of the previous life.
He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.
It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of a loft.
Different from other places in the Demon Suppression Division that are full of chills, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, showing a different kind of tranquility in the bloody Demon Suppression Division.
At this time, the attic door was open, and occasionally people came in and out.
Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment before stepping in.
Enter the attic.
The environment just changes in vain.
The fragrance of ink mixed with the faint smell of blood hit his face, causing him to frown instinctively, but then relaxed it quickly.
There is almost no way to cleanse away the smell of blood on everyone in the Zhenmo Division.
