Not long after, Lei Er picked out a few more moths who had done harm to nature, killed them without hesitation, and then took their heads back.
Before he knew it, eight bloody heads were piled around him.
Now the minions answered everything knowingly, wishing they could tear their hearts out.
As long as Lei Er asked a question, there was no need to count down. They rushed to answer, and those who couldn't answer diligently added after them.
Where is the bandit's den? Are there any other bandit's dens around? How many people are there in the village? How can it be easier to break in?
Each one of them explained it more clearly and detailedly than the other.
Lei Er was very happy to ask, and he was still reluctant to leave until someone came to ask for dinner.
Standing up, he drew a circle on the ground.
"I'm going to eat now. You guys don't seem to have made any big mistakes. Please save your head first. But whoever dares to step out of this circle will be responsible for the consequences."
The bandits nodded obediently, not even daring to show a cunning look.
Someone had tried to be cunning before, but after only half a turn of his eyes, Lei Er pointed out and had someone pull him away.
Return to the middle of the ring.
Ren Ning was washing his hands, and he was also Wu Juncai who had just finished interrogating and was waving his fan.
"Old Ren, what's going on over there?"
Spring has arrived, but the weather is still cold. Lei Er is holding a bowl of hot soup, blowing on it and taking a sip from time to time, his face full of satisfaction.
Ma Dali, the man next to him, also pricked up his ears.
He and his group of twenty-five people obeyed Ren Ning's orders and stayed in the middle to protect the children and ashes of the female family members in the fortress. They had no idea what was happening outside.
"I can't tell you much." Ren Ning took a sip of the delicious mutton soup before opening his mouth.
"A few months ago, someone sent this scribe to gather the bandits and bandits near the Luoxia Mountains. He was just a little guy and didn't know anything. He just followed the orders passed and tricked Jingang Village into killing the Gu family's caravan.
hand……"
As for snatching the telescope, there were many people here talking about it, so Ren Ning didn't say anything about it.
Kill the Gu family caravan!
Gu Shengnan came over with Gu Fugui and several guards.
The two of them were worried about whether the trade route to Xiliang could still be used in the future, when they accidentally heard these words, and their faces suddenly turned pale.
boom!
"Gu Shang Shou," Lei Er put down the bowl in his hand.
He was very dissatisfied, "Did your caravan make any enemies? The military advisor asked these two hundred bandits to destroy your caravan by name! If they hadn't met us, hehe."
"This..." The master and servant looked at each other blankly.
It's hard to say.
Caravans travel thousands of miles, not only competing with other caravans but also playing tricks with sellers and buyers. No one knows who they may accidentally offend.
In addition, there is one or even multiple forces behind each caravan. It is obvious that the caravan has not caused any trouble, but if the forces behind them get into trouble, chickens like caravans that can lay golden eggs will be attacked at any time.
Someone killed him to respect the monkey.
"You don't believe it, do you?" Lei Er snorted, "Commander Ren has just examined their dog-headed military advisor. You can send someone to ask again to see if we lied to you."
Gu Shengnan was embarrassed to express doubts.
Gu Fugui apologized a few words, but turned around and left.
After a while, the old man ran back, covering his throat, and happened to see Ren Ning and others chewing mutton with gusto. His expression changed, and he threw himself next to him and vomited.
Lei Er waved his hands in disgust, "Damn old guy, if you want to puke, run away."
"Shang Gu, do you believe me now?" He looked back at Gu Shengnan, who was confused, and said without any doubt: "There will be extra money for this journey."
Gu Fugui finally vomited enough and helped the guard back to Gu Shengnan, "Girl, it should be true."
He looked like a scribe, and he estimated that he would have nightmares when sleeping for several months.
Under normal circumstances, no one would hold back or say anything in a panic, wishing they could tell the truth as soon as possible and let the other party have a good time.
In this way, adding money will not be a problem.
However, this is not Ren Ning's business. Ma Dali, who is familiar with the market, can bargain for it.
Gu Shengnan apologized a few words and was about to turn around and leave.
"First of all, the ancient merchant, don't leave!" Ren Ning shouted to them.
"Help people to the end and send the Buddha to heaven. Let your guards rest well these two days. Let's find a time to clear out all the bandit dens in the nearby mountains for you."
"It will be safe for your caravan to pass through the Luoxia Mountains from now on."
Gu Shengnan and Gu Shengnan looked even more bitter and felt unwilling in every possible way. However, Ren Ning said that he was serving it for them. He couldn't find any reason to refuse, so he had to hold his nose and accept.
"Brother Lei Er," a teenage fortress girl came over and blinked curiously, "Did you really kill those bandits who were slow to answer just now?"
Lei Er glanced at her, "Are you full? Why do you ask?"
He usually likes to joke with the people in the team, unlike Ren Ning who doesn't like to talk and only works seriously. Therefore, everyone likes to chat with him.
The girl was very regretful, "I don't know if any of those people are on the popular list. If so, you can chop off your head and collect the reward."
Three grown men wiped their sweat.
The little girl said she should be beheaded or not.
cough!
Ren Ning coughed, "How can the fortress soldiers kill people casually? I just pulled them to the other side and hid them to scare those little minions. I didn't really hurt their orders."
Lei Er nodded, "Only those I explicitly say will be killed will be killed. The others are still alive and well."
The girl breathed a sigh of relief, "Then what to do with these bandits?"
"Let's see if they are obedient." Lei Er said casually: "Those who are obedient will be sent to the county government in front; if they are not obedient, they will be reincarnated."
"Then they must be obedient."
Early the next morning, Lei Er and Ma Dali led twenty-five fortress soldiers and forty caravan guards, took their weapons and set out first.
They were going to raid the old home in Jingang Village.
According to the confessions of the gangsters, there are as many as 400 people left behind in Jingang Village, but most of them are bandits who have been subdued after killing their colleagues nearby in the past few months.
Most of them were injured and were only responsible for building the stockade.
Because there are no other bandit dens nearby, there is no need to worry too much about others coming to steal the den of King Kong Village. Coupled with the deception of the military advisor, the leader of the village robbed a large caravan for the first time, and took all the mountain bandits who were capable of fighting.
All the thieves were brought out.
It can be said that the current Jingang Village is basically undefended.
Ren Ning let Lei Er and the others go.
And he and twenty-five other soldiers led a long convoy into the vast Luoxia Mountains.
The captured bandit was indeed very obedient.
They are just ordinary minions, and they may not necessarily die if they are sent to the county government. But if they make a slight move, they will definitely die.
So one by one they followed the caravan and walked along the post road.
If the caravan gave them food, they would eat it; if they were not given food, they would endure it silently. Even sometimes when the road was difficult, some discerning bandits would come over and push the cart with all their strength.
That's much more diligent than the paid escorts in the caravan.
Gu Fugui shook his head desperately, somewhat doubting life.
He traveled the trade route for more than thirty years.
When Gu Shengnan's grandfather was a merchant leader, he began to travel with the trading team until now. In more than thirty years, he has seen numerous bandits and horse thieves, but he has never seen such an obedient bandit.
He even took a fancy to several strong bandits and wanted to recruit these honest guys into the caravan.
It would be even better if the host accidentally fell in love with one of them and forced him to become his son-in-law.
Of course, this is impossible.
The old housekeeper had no choice but to move forward with a sigh. For a moment, Gu Shengnan thought he had twisted his waist.
