Chapter 358

"When I left, didn't you say there were more than 400 people? Why are there only so many left now?" Jin Feng asked.

Before he went to Shuang Hump, Zhang Liang reported to him that the total number of veterans and female soldiers in the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau now exceeds 1,500.

There were more than 400 veterans and female soldiers left in the village, which reassured Jin Feng.

"Didn't he start selling salt a few days ago? He also asked the Chamber of Commerce to disperse to various villages and towns. Each team needs escorts. Mrs. Xiaobei asked me for someone, and it must be a trustworthy old man. I don't have it.

The only solution is to recruit people from the village to the chamber of commerce."

Zhang Liang explained: "Nowadays, the Chamber of Commerce is developing too fast, and it goes to more and more places. There are not enough escorts. Miss Luo Lan sent me a letter a few days ago, saying that she is planning to develop markets around the capital.

Let me send at least five hundred people there. I plan to discuss this matter first when my husband comes back."

"I forgot about this..."

Jin Feng nodded helplessly: "Let's talk about the escorts later. Now it's important to rescue Mu Lan. One hundred people is too few. Can we draw more?"

"No," Zhang Liang shook his head and said, "If it's not a last resort, I can't let Mr. take all of these more than a hundred people away.

There are too many places in our village that need to be guarded. Every factory, warehouse, and intersections of all sizes need to be guarded. If Mr. takes these 100 people away, there will not even be a brother on duty to change the shift.

Already."

"What should I do?"

Jin Feng was pacing back and forth anxiously.

At this moment, the veteran who had gone to see off the female soldiers ran over: "Sir, Axia is awake and is anxious to see Mr. Wei, but Mr. Wei won't let her come."

"Brother Liang, let's go take a look together."

Jin Feng explained: "Dazhuang, prepare your war horses, catapults and heavy crossbows. When I come back, we can leave at any time."

"Yes!" Da Zhuang agreed, turned around and ran away.

Jin Feng and Zhang Liang mounted their horses and galloped towards the village.

Xie Guang's old house was rented to Qing Huai, and then Qing Mulan lived there for a while. Now that the female soldiers have moved to the Houshan camp, it has been transformed into the Xihewan Medical Center.

Normally, Lao Tan would sit here for consultation, and Zhou Jin would also come to deal with any injuries caused by bumps and bruises.

When Jin Feng arrived, Axia's wounds had been treated by Zhou Jin, and Wei Wuya fed her some homemade pills, and finally she was no longer unconscious.

Seeing Jin Feng come in, Axia wanted to stand up, but Jin Feng held his shoulders down.

"It's time now. There's no need to worry about those false courtesy. If you have anything to do, just tell me quickly."

"Sir, a brother saw a man with double humps in Wulang Mountain. Miss asked me to remind him, be careful of Feng Sheng!"

Although Axia was still weak and spoke in a low voice, she was finally able to speak completely.

"Feng Sheng?" Jin Feng thought for a moment: "Is Feng Sheng the same Mr. Feng who brought the people from Hutoushan and Double Hump to come from Changshegou to attack us?"

"Yes, that's him." Axia nodded.

"No wonder the bitch with the double humps could never be found. He ended up in Qingshan County."

A cold light flashed in Zhang Liang's eyes.

During the battle at Changshegou, only the Hutoushan bandits were captured, but the Double Hump bandits ran away with Mr. Feng, and then took the waterway to get rid of the tracking veterans.

Recently, Zhang Liang has been sending people from Zhong Ming's team to search for the whereabouts of Mr. Feng and the Double Hump Bandits.

It stands to reason that there are hundreds of people in Double Hump, and no matter where they go, it is impossible not to leave some traces. However, no one from Zhong Ming's team can find out any information. It is as if the Double Hump bandits have disappeared from this world.

This has always puzzled Zhang Liang.

Now he understands.

After the defeat at Changshegou, the Two Hump bandits fled south, so the search target of the Zhongming team has always been south of Jinchuan.

However, Qingshan County is in the northwest of Jinchuan. Zhongming's team didn't send anyone there at all, so how could they possibly find it?

"When the lady led us to block the bandits, she asked someone to investigate Mr. Feng's information. The lady said that Mr. Feng was cunning and well-spoken. It is possible that he was behind the bandits in Qingshan County this time.

.”

Axia said: "The lady asked me to tell my husband that we must be wary of this person."

"This Mr. Feng is indeed not simple, he is a character."

Jin Feng nodded slightly.

At that time, the bandits' lair was sealed off. Jin Feng's attention was almost entirely attracted by County Lieutenant Zhao and the two squires, and he did not pay attention to Mr. Feng at all.

In the end, we found out that Mr. Feng had tricked everyone, and even County Lieutenant Zhao became a pawn in his hands.

If some hunters hadn't discovered the anomalies in Hutou Mountain and Double Hump, Jin Feng might have fallen into the trap.

He also didn't expect that the bandits finally escaped down the mountain and dared to attack Xihewan instead of running for their lives.

"Sir, you praise him too much." Da Liu said: "He is just a lackey of the wealthy gentry, and he dares to call himself sir!"

"Da Liu, a biting dog doesn't bark. The more such a person is, the more terrifying it is!"

Jin Feng said: "At first we thought he was a small character and no one took him seriously. Now, he has caused such a big fuss."

"Mr. Feng is indeed very sinister. Miss said that this time we were trapped, it was probably Mr. Feng's plan." Axia said.

"What's the plan?" Jin Feng asked.

In fact, he was just curious, Qing Mulan brought a heavy crossbow and catapult, how could the bandits trap her?

It's just that A-Xia was unconscious, so he didn't have time to ask.

"We found a large number of bandits. The lady knew that they couldn't fight hard, so she immediately asked people to find a suitable hillside to place heavy crossbows and catapults. But just as we were settled, a large group of bandits suddenly came out of the woods next to the hillside.

...and snatched away the heavy crossbows and catapults..."

Having said this, Axia blushed and lowered her head.

"The bandits actually stole the catapult and heavy crossbow?!"

Da Liu jumped up immediately.

Jin Feng and Zhang Liang also looked at each other and saw worry in their eyes.

"We still underestimated Mr. Feng before. I'm afraid it will be difficult to catch him in the future." Jin Feng sighed.

"Sir, if the mastermind behind this incident is Feng Sheng, I have thought of a way to catch him," Zhang Liang said.

"What can we do?" Jin Feng asked.

"This..." Zhang Liang glanced around: "There is a map over there in the barracks. Sir, let's go back to the barracks and talk about it first?"

At this time, there were not only Axia and Jin Feng's personal guards in the medical room, but also Mr. Wei and the old people, as well as Lao Tan and the two injured villagers. It was indeed not the place to talk.

Jin Feng nodded and looked at A-Xia: "Do you have anything else to say?"
