"Hurry up and send someone to investigate!" Wu Jianzhang was helpless.
They are now like gamblers, risking all their wealth and adding leverage, so naturally they cannot calm down.
If they cannot deliver the goods, the foreigners will definitely not let them go.
You must know that the Thirteenth Bank has signed many delivery contracts. If there is no goods to be delivered, there will be liquidated damages. How will these foreigners let them go?
While Wu Jianzhang was worried, Dong Shuheng was also anxiously waiting for the news.
In the middle of the night, Dong Shuheng was woken up from his sleep. It was Li Cunxun.
"President, there is news from the Intelligence Department that the 'fishing operation' is successful. You can start closing the net."
In order to ensure that this operation was foolproof, the Intelligence Department mobilized half of its forces to go deep into the main source of goods of the Thirteenth Line in Guangdong to accurately grasp the action route of the Thirteenth Line caravan.
The special forces sneak into the selected trade routes in advance. In order to make things more beautiful, the special forces will conquer some copycats along the way.
Under the guise of copycats, they intercepted thirteen lines of goods. Otherwise, so many goods would disappear without a trace, and a fool would be able to guess who did it. These special forces who have taken root in the copycats will continue to implement a long-term plan - "
Flower Planting Plan".
However, when the net is finally closed, Dong Shuheng will always be the biggest beneficiary.
Even with so many cover-ups, Wu Jianzhang and his colleagues were astute, and they could still imagine that Huai Haijun played an ulterior role in it.
But this is what happens among big shots. There is a completely different difference between having a fig leaf and not having a fig leaf.
Yunnan is mountainous, and there are only a handful of roads connecting it to the outside world. One of them passes through Funing County in Guangnan, Yunnan.
There is a Longbu Mountain in Guangnan, and there is a village on the mountain. It depends on the mountain to feed on the mountains, and on the water to feed on the water. It depends on the trade routes and naturally eats the merchants passing by.
Longbu Village has a dangerous terrain and is relatively far away from the county seat. It is located at the junction of Guangnan and Funing, so no officers and soldiers have been willing to take charge of it.
The leader of the village, Long Wanshan, was a strong man with great skills, but he was cruel. He often killed and silenced merchants after robbing them. He also frequently beat and scolded his subordinates.
Although everyone has complaints, people in the mountains are like this. They speak with strength. Although Long Wanshan is cruel, because of his reputation, the surrounding villages do not dare to take the idea of Longbu Village.
Half a month ago, eight strong men came to the stronghold, each with great skills. At first, everyone thought that these eight men came to defect to the stronghold. But after the other party entered the stronghold, they killed Long Wanshan without saying a word.
Long Wanshan still had some close subordinates. However, just as these ten subordinates were about to attack, they were shot to death by these eight people.
Each of them had two short muskets, which they could fire continuously without missing a beat. They knocked these dozen people to the ground in just a few hits.
People in the village had seen this kind of change of the king's flag at the top of the city a lot. In fact, Long Wanshan also killed the previous leader and occupied Longbu Village.
These eight people were pretty good. They did not continue to deal with the people in the village, nor did they harm the women in the village.
Not only that, but the grain supplies occupied by Long Wanshan were also distributed to the villagers. The eldest among the eight called himself Long Yi, and the remaining people were named Long Er to Long Ba according to their ranking.
After the villagers received the supplies, they were naturally willing to accept the eight as the owners of the village.
These eight people were the team sent by Dong Shuheng. They were executing Huai Haijun's "Flower Planting Plan."
These people were originally from Yunnan. They used to live in the rivers and lakes, but were later recruited by the Huai Navy's special forces and learned a lot of skills.
When Dong Shuheng established the special force, he implemented elite education. These people had the best martial arts instructors and could take martial arts skills from various sects. They also had to learn cultural knowledge and understand the Huaihai Navy's policies and concepts. They even had to learn military skills.
command.
It can be said that any one of these people can serve as a grassroots officer. Of course, it will take time to practice to meet Dong Shuheng's requirements for them.
However, we can't wait now. This time we can only select the best-performing special operations team members who were recruited first.
Long Yi to Long Ba are one of the teams selected this time. Of course, they all have their own real names, but now they only use code names to hide their identity from others.
"Boss, people from the Intelligence Department have received news that the goods have arrived in Guangnan. The caravan has nearly a thousand guards and two hundred people are from the foreign gun team of the security company. The person in charge of contacting us is Peng, the leader of the foreign gun team.
The soldiers and caravan will go to Babao Town for accommodation and repairs, and we will meet with this person at Babao Town to discuss specific arrangements."
"Second brother, I'm a little uncomfortable with calling you a big brother." Long Yi said with a smile. After completing this order, they will officially start the Huaihai Navy's business here.
"Brother, we have to follow the local customs. The villagers in this village seem to be respectful to us. In fact, they are not of the same mind as us. They are just like this because of our strength and the materials we have been given."
"We are all people from Yunnan. Don't you understand this place? Most of the people here have never left the village. The village is their paradise. There are many ethnic groups and many contradictions."
"Second brother, you are right. It seems that if we want to do big things here in the future, we can't act recklessly. We have to take into account the characteristics of the people here."
…
One day later, Long Yi took several brothers and some selected young people from the village to Babao Town. They disguised themselves as mountain people who went down the mountain to buy supplies. During the day, they bought some salt, grain and other supplies in the town, and at night they went to Babao Town.
Lived in the town.
At this time, a caravan from the Thirteenth Group was stationed at a cargo station in the town. They were planning to rest here for a night before leaving. The head of the caravan had just written a safety letter and gave it to a clerk, asking him to
Send it back. This is something the person in charge has to do every day.
At midnight, Long Yi successfully connected with Peng Bing, the leader of the foreign gun team. They discussed the details of the robbery.
Outsiders would definitely find this scene very funny. The bandits and the caravan's guards discussed the details of the robbery together.
After the negotiation was concluded, Long Yi handed a large portion of Mongolian sweat medicine to Peng Bing.
"Long Yi, this medicine won't have any side effects, right? I'll have to take it when the time comes." Peng Bing asked excitedly. Looking at such a large package of medicine, Peng Bing felt frightened.
"Don't worry, it's all extracted from traditional Chinese medicine. There's no danger. It's just that you may not be able to get close to women in the next six months."
"What? Will it affect that function?" Peng Bing shouted excitedly.
"Hahaha... I'm just kidding you. I'm so excited. How can you, a big-headed soldier, have the chance to get close to a woman?" Long Yi said with a smile.
"Hmph..." Peng Bing rolled his eyes at him, this special operations team member was really making a fool of himself.
The two of them didn't meet for long, so Long Yi had to seize the time to return to the village to organize manpower.
Peng Bing also had to go back quickly. He came out secretly. If someone from the caravan discovered it, it would be difficult to explain.
The next night, the Thirteenth Group's caravan indeed camped beside Lapo Mountain. Since it was not far from Funing County, the entire caravan relaxed.
At dinner time, the cook cooked several large pots of broth, and the caravan brought a lot of dry food so that they could eat it with the broth.
Peng Bing's identity is the leader of the musketeers in the escort, so he can naturally move around at will in the caravan. If he wants to put some medicine into the soup, it is easy. Because the entire caravan is in a state of tightness on the outside and looseness on the inside.
Almost everyone eats the broth. Who wants to leave the broth alone and eat only dry food?
The result was naturally what Long Yi and the others expected. The caravan was basically knocked down.
Long Yi and the others brought a total of more than a thousand people out of the cottage. When the medicine took effect, the people from the cottage came out together.
The bandits in the village were so excited that their hands were shaking when they saw the carts of silk tea.
"Boss, we have become prosperous." One of the bandits said excitedly.
After this incident, the bandits in the village were convinced by Long Yi and the others. They didn't know how Long Yi drugged more than a thousand people, and they didn't need to know. As long as they could make everyone rich and live a good life
, the copycats will naturally support it.
Of course, with so many people in the caravan, it is impossible to find a perfect medicine.
There were still a few strong caravan members who stayed awake. They saw the bandits coming and tried to resist, but of course they were eliminated on the spot by Long Yi and the others.
The people from Longbu Village worked together to pull all the people and goods of the caravan back to the village.
After returning to the village, these people woke up one after another. Long Yi announced in front of everyone that all the people in the caravan would stay in the village as slaves and all the guards were killed. In this way, the two hundred hired musketeers and guards were killed.
The caravan was separated.
The guards naturally struggled and resisted for a while. Under the pitiful eyes of the caravan members, they were beaten and kicked by the people in the village and taken to the back mountain.
…
"Long Yi, can't you be gentler? I'm so beaten that I'm almost disfigured." Peng Bing complained while wiping the wound at the corner of his mouth with alcohol at a place where prisoners were detained in the back mountain.
"Since we have agreed to act, of course we must do it more realistically and finish the act no matter what! Well, now you are liberated, but I will continue to stay in this poor mountain valley. You don't know when I will be a
Head!" Long Yi said.
Peng Bing and the others are now "dead" and the security company cannot return. They want to return to the Huai Navy Field Force.
"Tch... How about we switch sides? You will be the chief officer here from now on. When one day our president assumes the high position, you will also be a governor-general." Peng Bing is right, like Long Yi and the others.
If you are in charge of one side, your future development will indeed be better.
"Besides, don't worry, if the president frees it up, he will definitely give you support. Now we leave our equipment to you, but you have to leave some self-defense items for your brothers."
"Help the brothers prepare some dry food. There are ready-made goods in the caravan, and other things will be left to you as start-up capital according to the president's wishes. I think it won't be long before several counties around here are full of you.
That’s all."
Long Yi felt really comfortable at this time. He had finished the transaction. The goods on hand were good and could only be cashed in slowly. But the equipment of the Musketeers was very useful to him. With this equipment, he could quickly
It is easy to organize an elite force and take over several surrounding counties.
And the location here is quite good. It is located at the junction of eastern Yunnan and Guangxi, so there is enough space to move around.
The most important thing is that Muslim rebellions have broken out across Yunnan, and Yunnan's government and army may not have many troops to annihilate them.
