"Wei Laosan knows how to make hot air balloons. He is a must-have talent for any force. Since someone has found his traces, why would he tell us?"
Princess Ninth said: "There must be a conspiracy in this."
"I know, but we must capture Wei Laosan no matter what!"
Guan Xiaorou's tone became tough: "My husband once said that any conspiracy is worthless in the face of absolute strength. I don't care what conspiracy they have, I just arrest people, and I will kill anyone who stops me!"
In recent days, Guan Xiaorou has been going to the medical room to visit the wounded every day.
Every time she went there, she would feel more depressed and the murderous intention in her heart became stronger.
Nowadays, the escorts from all over the country have basically withdrawn, and the escort dormitories in the back hills of Xihewan are all full.
Although the hot air balloon and grenade warehouses were bombed, there was still some emergency stock in the back mountain warehouse.
Moreover, the bodyguard's armor, heavy crossbow, catapult and war horse are all still there. His combat power is not inferior to any of Dakang's troops, and he has the courage to face any difficulties!
"It is possible to arrest people directly. I am worried that this news is deliberately released by someone to divert our attention," said Ninth Princess.
"There is no shortage of people in the village now. To catch Wei Laosan, it is enough to send a team of 100 people. Even if someone spreads false news, it will only be a waste of time. But what if it is true?"
Guan Xiaorou asked: "Xiaoyu said that Xizhou is very close to Dangxiang and Tubo. If Wei Laosan really escapes to Dangxiang or Tubo, it will be even more difficult for us to capture him."
"That's true," the Ninth Princess nodded: "Then I will send a message to Xizhou early tomorrow morning and ask them to keep an eye on Wei Laosan and his party."
Before dawn the next day, Zheng Fang summoned a team of 100 people to gather at the school grounds.
"Last night, Xiaoyu got information and discovered Wei Laosan in Xizhou in the northwest. Your mission this time is to go to Xizhou to capture Wei Laosan!"
Zheng Fang stood on the high platform and shouted: "This news has not yet been confirmed to be true or false. It may be false news released by others, so you may encounter ambushes on the road, or you may encounter various unexpected emergencies.
.If anyone is scared, they can opt out now!"
After shouting, Zheng Fang waited for more than ten seconds, but no escort came out.
"Captain, aren't you looking down on people? Since we brothers joined the escort agency, when have we ever been afraid?"
A one-eyed escort shouted: "No matter what the ambush is, we can break through it!"
"Yes, Captain, please tell me when to set off. I'm still going to catch Wei Laosan!"
"Wei Laosan is such a bastard. I only had half a basket of wild vegetables left at home, and I gave him a pot. As a result, he not only burned my new house, but also burned my son to death! I found him,
I have to peel off his skin!"
Other escorts also urged Zheng Fang.
Zheng Fang looked back at Guan Xiaorou, and seeing Guan Xiaorou nodding, he raised his tin trumpet and shouted: "Now everyone go to the canteen to eat, get dry food, and set off after a stick of incense!"
The escorts were dismissed on the spot and quickly ran to the cafeteria.
On the other side, the horseherds led the tall war horses over and tied them next to the school field.
"Who is leading the team this time?" Guan Xiaorou saw Zheng Fang jumping off the high platform and asked.
"Liu Qi from the 2nd Battalion and 4th Company leads the team, and the deputy company commander is Niu Ben." Zheng Fang replied.
"Niu Ben is also going?" Guan Xiaorou frowned.
Since Qin'er was injured, Niu Ben has been standing by her side.
Qin'er just woke up the afternoon before yesterday, and Guan Xiaorou never expected that Niu Ben would sign up.
"Last night I had a meeting with the company commanders and platoon leaders to discuss this matter. When this kid heard that we were going to arrest Wei Laosan, he insisted on going like crazy and almost started a fight with Heishan. He must have been stimulated by Qin'er.
"
Niu Ben and Qin'er had been flirting with each other for more than a day or two. Jin Feng was also willing to leave Qin'er completely in the village. After returning from the capital, he specially arranged for the village chief to go to the Ninth Princess to propose marriage.
The Ninth Princess has promised to let Qin'er and Niu Ben get married after she gives birth to her child.
In the eyes of the villagers, after proposing marriage, Qin'er became a hot-tempered person, and they always made fun of them when they saw them.
Qin'er was a little shy at first, but gradually she got used to it. Sometimes the Ninth Princess made delicious food, and she would leave some for delivery to Niuben's dormitory.
But after waking up from the injury, Qin'er proposed to break off the engagement.
Of course Niu Ben didn't want to, but no matter what he said or promised, Qin'er ignored him and finally asked Zhu'er to kick him out.
Niu Ben had been holding back his anger and had no place to vent his anger. When he found out about Wei Laosan, he kept urging his company commander to sign up.
In fact, Zheng Fang was going to send another company, but Niu Ben was very determined and almost fell out with the other company commander.
Zheng Fang had no choice but to ask the company commanders of the two companies to draw lots. In the end, Niu Ben's company commander got the task target.
"Qin'er was seriously injured this time, and she must be a little confused. It's okay to send Niu Ben out, so that both of them can calm down."
Guan Xiaorou nodded slightly.
Qin'er was not only disfigured this time, she was also stabbed several times in the leg. After waking up, her left leg always felt numb and painful. Wei Wuya said that even if she gets better in the future, the root of the disease may still be left.
Qin'er was afraid of dragging Niu Ben down, so she proposed to break off the engagement.
Niu Ben also understood Qin'er's intentions, so he always disagreed.
After breakfast, the team set off.
Everyone rode in threes and drove as fast as possible.
Afraid of an ambush on the road, Niu Ben sent three waves of scouts ahead.
As a result, they reached the border of Xizhou without encountering any ambush.
The hidden stake left by the Ninth Princess in Xizhou had already received orders and successfully reunited with Niu Ben and others.
"Where is Wei Laosan now?" asked company commander Liu Qi.
"We are almost at the Dangxiang boundary." Hidden Stake replied.
"Sure enough, they are heading towards Dangxiang." Liu Qi asked: "How far are they from Dangxiang? Are they heading towards Dangxiang border defense camp, or towards Liangzi City?"
Liangzi City is the Dangxiang city closest to the Dakang border, due north of Xizhou, while the Dangxiang border defense camp is northwest of Xizhou City.
"They are heading towards the Dangxiang border defense camp." Hidden Zhuang replied: "Judging from their speed, they can arrive there in three days if they are fast."
"How long will it take us to get to Dangxiang Camp?"
"Everyone is riding three horses at a time. If you go all out, you can get there in about two and a half days."
Hidden Zhuang said: "But in that case, we need to enter the Dangxiang territory, and it won't be far from the Dangxiang camp. If the Dangxiang people send someone to help, it may be difficult for us to escape!"
"This is indeed troublesome..." Liu Qi looked at Niu Ben: "Old Niu, what do you think we should do?"
Niu Benpai didn't say anything impulsive about going directly to the Dangxiang camp. He thought for a moment and said, "The moon has been very bright recently. How about we rush on the road at night and try to stop them before they enter Dangxiang?"
