Jin Feng also knew that Yegoupo was a place that was not very far from Xihewan. He had heard of bandits appearing several times before, but the scale was small, even smaller than the Maomaoshan bandits.
Now there are more than 100 veterans under Jin Feng and the female soldiers under Qing Mulan. Even if they do not rely on catapults and heavy crossbows, they can easily defeat them with their sharp long knives and individual crossbows that can fire continuously.
Kill the same number of bandits.
It’s impossible for the Yegoupo bandits not to know this.
However, not long after he had wiped out the Iron Can Mountain bandits, the Yegoupo bandits dared to threaten to collect New Year's food. Jin Feng instinctively felt that something was wrong.
So I decided to find out the details of the Yegoupo bandits first.
"The monkey has already gone before we come here, and the results will probably be available soon." Zhang Liang replied.
"Brother Liang is still experienced in handling things."
Jin Feng turned his head and glanced at Qing Mulan.
Qing Mulan scratched her head in embarrassment.
Monkey used to be a scout in the Tielin Army. He explored the roads and was familiar with the roads. He returned to Tiegun Mountain that night.
Jin Feng did not demolish the Juyi Hall that was originally built by the bandits in Tiegunshan. He turned it into a conference room.
At this time, Jin Feng, Zhang Liang, Zheng Fang, Tieniu and Qing Mulan all gathered here.
"How about it? Have you found out how many Yegoupo bandits there are?"
Zhang Liang asked first.
"There are thirty-seven people in total," the monkey replied.
"There are only more than thirty people who dare to threaten to collect New Year's grain?" Zheng Fang asked: "Monkey, are some of them hiding?"
"Old Zheng, you are looking down on me."
The monkey glanced at Zheng Fang unhappily: "I touched the wild dog slope all over, and even looked at the box where the money was hidden under the bed of their boss."
"sharp!"
Zheng Fang gave a thumbs up to the monkey, and then asked doubtfully: "If they only have more than thirty people, how can they have the courage to collect New Year's food? Why do they have it?"
Due to years of war, the people of Dakang are still quite tough. The Tiegunshan bandits relied on their large numbers and the ability to easily kill a village, so they dared to collect the annual grain.
There are only about thirty people in Wild Dog Slope, so there is no need for Jin Feng and the others to take action. Any bigger Zhuangzi can destroy them as long as they are well prepared.
"The bandits of Tin Can Mountain also grew from small bandits back then, or did they also have this idea in mind?"
Qing Mulan said: "There are too many people taking risks these days. What if they also want to take a gamble?"
"It's possible."
The monkey nodded and said: "I asked someone to inquire. This time the Yegoupo bandits went to Zhoujia Village just for a tour. They robbed a few houses at the entrance of the village and then retreated. They did not dare to harm the lives of the villagers. It was not like robbery at all.
, but it seems to be declaring force and recruiting people."
"Monkey, have you noticed anything unusual?"
Jin Feng nodded, but he still felt that this matter was not that simple.
"I was just about to say something," said the monkey: "I used to be a escort with a friend and saw the Yegoupo bandits once. At that time, they were wearing rags and had miscellaneous weapons. Seven or eight of them didn't even have knives in their hands.
Holding a wooden stick.
But when I went there today, they all had brand new long knives, and the first and second masters also got a set of armor.
In addition, I also saw more than ten longbows and dozens of bundles of arrows in their warehouse."
"No wonder there are only about 30 people in Wild Dog Slope who dare to raise the banner. It turns out there are people behind them to support them."
Zheng Fang said angrily: "It seems that the big boss of the county government has taken a fancy to the territory of Tiegongshan."
These days, there are people with money, such as the veteran team under Jin Feng.
As long as they are willing to pay, there are many people who are willing to sacrifice their lives.
"Now that the bandits in Tin Can Mountain are gone, we just need to spend some money to help the bandits buy weapons and recruit people. When the bandits grow stronger, we can collect annual food. This is a hugely profitable business. It's strange that the big bosses are not interested."
Zhang Liang said: "I just don't know which master did it."
"Sir, what should we do?"
Zheng Fang looked at Jin Feng.
"The Yegoupo bandits are obviously testing our bottom line. If we ignore them, they will definitely go further and further."
Jin Feng thought for a moment and said coldly: "Break off the person who handed you the tooth! No matter who is behind it, as long as it shows up, behead it and treat it as training for your troops."
"Yes, they are bandits anyway. Even if they are all killed, we will be fair!"
Qing Mulan clenched his fist: "Sir, can you agree to let me go to Wild Dog Slope now?"
Dakang has more women than men. The reason why Jin Feng strongly supports Qing Mulan in setting up a women's army is because he wants to use it in the future.
Actual combat is the only way to test a warrior. Whether he can fight or not can only be known after a real fight.
Jin Feng thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay."
"Thank you, sir!"
Qing Mulan stood up and left excitedly.
"It's already dark, let's go tomorrow."
Zheng Fang stood up and shouted.
"This is the first battle for our female soldiers. I must go back and prepare well."
Qing Mulan called Amei and went down the mountain happily.
"Sir, Miss Mu Lan is too impatient and she will suffer a loss. Why didn't you stop her?"
Zheng Fang asked worriedly.
"Yes, the female soldiers last time only lasted a last hit and never went on the battlefield. Moreover, the recruits and veterans were not well-trained. It is too early to send them to suppress bandits now, and there will be big problems."
Zhang Liang followed.
"Mu Lan has dreamed of joining the army since she was a child. She has been suppressed by her brother and father for so many years. Now she has finally established a female army. She wants to make achievements to prove herself. If I keep suppressing her, she will secretly run away with others.
More troublesome."
Jin Feng said: "Old Zheng, please make arrangements and take forty brothers to go to Wild Dog Slope to lurk. If you encounter an unexpected situation, you will take action to kill the bandits."
"I knew that sir had a back-up plan."
Zheng Fang smiled and said: "Sir, don't worry, I promise that the girls will come back well."
"That's not necessary," Jin Feng shook his head and said, "I support Mu Lan's establishment of a female military team. It's not just a toy for her. It will be used in the future.
There are not many bandits this time, so we can give them some practice. If they don't encounter any particular danger, you don't have to step forward. A little setback will help Mu Lan sober up."
"Understood."
Zheng Fang nodded, turned and left.
Soon, forty veterans, armed with various weapons, rushed to Wild Dog Slope overnight.
The bandits chose Wild Dog Slope as their lair. The terrain here is naturally very steep and it is not easy to climb up the mountain.
However, lurking is a required training subject for veterans. Under the leadership of the monkey, he easily bypassed the only sentry post and quietly sneaked into the bandit's lair from the cliff at the back of the mountain.
"Sir, this operation is not only to test the combat capabilities of the female soldiers, but also to test our latent capabilities."
Zheng Fang whispered: "Everyone lurks according to the positions agreed by the monkeys on the road. Without my signal, no one can be exposed. Do you understand?"
