98, Chapter 98

Yang Haiyan looked at the rain falling harder and harder: "Mommy, are you back?"

Aunt Lian went to the door and looked around for a while: "Not yet."

Yang Haiyan knew that it was not that fast to go back and forth to the county seat, but she just felt uneasy when Qin Fang was not around. Seeing that everyone had eaten, but he hadn't come back yet, he was afraid that he would be wronged and he didn't even eat.

Yang Haiyan didn't know that Qin Fang had already eaten a large bowl of shredded pork noodles and was rushing back.

It was already late for Qin Fang and his party to come back, and it was almost time for dinner. Not to mention that Yang Haiyan was worried, even Colonel Yang, Lieutenant Lu and others were very worried when they saw that he had not returned for a long time.

After a lot of difficulty, I finally heard the sound of horse hooves and the man was back.

Lieutenant Yang was the first to run forward: "My lord is back."

Qin put down his horse and gave the reins to one of the private soldiers: "Call Lao Lu to come to my camp to discuss important matters."

Captain Yang: "Yes."

Qin Fang said as he entered the tent, took off his raincoat, took out a lunch box and an oil paper wrapped with something from his arms, and sent them to Yang Haiyan: "Are you in a hurry? I'll give them to you. I brought it to eat.”

Yang Haiyan patted him on the shoulder and shook off a few drops of water: "We have been outside all day. Go and change into dry clothes first, otherwise you will be in trouble if you catch a cold."

Qin Fang sighed and went in to change clothes.

Qin Siya and Qin Shoucheng were also there, waiting for Qin Fang to eat together, so when they saw the lunch boxes and oil paper bags, they couldn't help but stare curiously. Because they all smelled the fragrance.

Looking at them like that, Yang Haiyan couldn't help but smile and said: "Open it and eat. I don't know what your elder brother bought. It must be delicious."

Qin Siya was lively and said, "I'll open it first."

She opened the lunch box first and saw that there were snacks inside. There were several snacks. I have to say that there is not much to eat here, and a piece of snack is very precious. Qin Siya licked her lips and didn't say anything about eating. Then she opened the oil paper bag and found a roast duck inside.

Speaking of which, Yang Haiyan liked to eat roast duck, so when she was at the border, she also asked Kun Zhang to bring snacks to her. No, Qin Fang knew that she loved to eat, so he bought one today.

After Qin Fang changed his clothes and came out, Yang Haiyan gave Qin Shoucheng and Qin Siya a piece of snack each, and asked Aunt Fan to cut up the roast duck. For example, the brigade eats steamed buns and boiled eggs. The food here is obviously much more thoughtful.

Qin Fang came out and asked: "How does this snack taste? I heard from the waiter at the inn that it is a famous snack in that county."

Seeing him looking at her expectantly, Yang Haiyan picked up the snack and took a bite: "It's sweet but not greasy. It's really good. My husband also has a piece." After saying that, she picked up a piece of snack and didn't wait for Qin Fang to refuse. , stuffed it into his mouth, "Does it taste good?"

In front of his younger brothers and sisters, Qin Fang was still very shameless, so he blushed a little when he was fed by her, but he still pretended to be calm and said: "It's delicious."

Aunt Lian smiled silently.

At this time, Colonel Yang and Lieutenant Lu had already arrived at the camp. Captain Yang said: "General, my subordinates are here."

Yang Haiyan said to Qin Fang: "It's almost time for dinner, are you still doing something?"

When Qin Fang heard this, he said, "Let's eat first."

Yang Haiyan said: "Both Captain Yang and Captain Lu are here, come in and eat together." Although the men and women were on guard, they were at one another, and Qin Fang was also there, so it didn't matter. As long as Qin Fang doesn't care, Yang Haiyan herself won't care.

Qin Fang was born in a peasant family, and there weren't so many different rules for men and women. What's the situation now? Do you still pay attention to these?

There were two more grown men to eat, so the food was enough, but half of the roast duck went into the stomachs of Colonel Yang and Lieutenant Lu. Yang Haiyan only ate two pieces and then stopped eating. It's hard for men to patrol every day, so she can use the platform to replenish her health.

The meal was finished quickly. Qin Shoucheng and Qin Siya entered their respective camps. Qin Fang discussed the matter with Xiaowei Yang and Xiaowei Lu. He took out a pen and paper: "This is the map of Wulipowai." Qin Fang actually drew the map by hand.

Colonel Yang asked: "Wulipo? Where is that place? Why did you draw this map?"

Yang Haiyan sat next to Qin Fang, listening to them talking about things, and was also curious about Wulipo.

Qin Fang said: "There is a Wuli slope outside the county. There is a place called Qingyuguan on the Wuli slope. It is a den of bandits. Now the rain is not stopping, and our military pay is limited. The fastest way to make money is Suppress bandits. "This is what Qin Fang learned from Yonghe Hou. There were no robbers in Yongzhou territory, and they were all wiped out by Yonghehou and the Yong family army. The people of Yongzhou were once grateful to Marquis Yonghe, but in fact, Marquis Yonghe suppressed bandits not for the common people.

This matter was brought up by Qin Fang in front of Qin Fang and General Ao after he was arrested by Yonghe Hou Shizi. The imperial army's pay was tight, and even if Marquis Yonghe had a family fortune, it would not be easy to support the Yong family's army of 50,000 people.

So...where is the most money? A robber's den.

Yes, Yonghehou suppressed bandits just for money. The money he collected from the bandits' dens after suppressing the bandits did not need to be handed over to the court, but was directly used as military pay. The imperial court was too embarrassed to ask him about his money. After all, it was the imperial court that owed military pay first.

So in those years, Marquis Yonghe loved suppressing bandits the most. As a result, no bandit will "settle down" in Yongzhou territory.

However, Qin Fang didn't know if there were any bandits here, so he went to the county town and pretended to have an affair with the waiter at the inn. He was robbed by the bandits. As a result, he got the clue from the waiter that there were really bandits here.

However, the things about the bandits that I heard from the boy were a little unusual. Therefore, after they left the county seat, they went to the villages near the county seat to inquire. After being convinced that what the waiter said was true, Qin Fang became a little suspicious of the county government. After that, on their way back, they turned to Wulipo to check it out. Qin Fang also remembered the topography of Wulipo because of this.

After listening to Qin Fang explain what happened, Yang Haiyan was shocked: "Are you going to suppress the bandits?"

Qin Fang hummed: "We happen to need military pay. The Marquis also did this in the past. When I heard the prince talking about it, I was just surprised. Now that I have encountered it, I think this is indeed a good idea. ”

Yang Haiyan just couldn't laugh or cry. No wonder people say that soldiers are a different kind of bandit. There is some truth in this statement. It's just: "It's strange that the gangsters are so rampant and the county government doesn't care. Speaking of which, did you hear anything about the death incident at Feng Family Medical Center when you went to the city today?"

Because Qin Fang was concerned about the bandits, he didn't inquire about the Feng Family Medical Center. "No, I will stay here for a few days. You can go and inquire about it then."

Yang Haiyan said: "That's not necessary. I'm just curious. You guys are on official business."

Next, Qin Fang, Colonel Yang and Lieutenant Lu began to discuss the matter of suppressing bandits. What sounded shocking to Yang Haiyan seemed ordinary to them. After all, they came down from the battlefield, and suppressing bandits is not as dangerous as the battlefield.

Regarding the suppression of bandits, although Xiao Er and others had already found out that they were a group of criminals, just in case, Qin Fang decided to go deep into the tiger's den to inquire about it to avoid killing by mistake. At the same time, he also observed the internal situation of the bandits more deeply to avoid any accidents.

Yang Haiyan knew that it would be dangerous for Qin Fang to go deep into the tiger's den, but in this case, she did not stop him. A man has a career and ambition. When a man strives for it, as long as it is right, she will not stop him. Moreover, Qin Fang was already discussing with his subordinates. If she stopped him again, wouldn't it be a slap in Qin Fang's face, and would even make him lose prestige among his subordinates. All she can do is wait here with peace of mind for his return.

After the three people discussed for half an hour, they came up with a plan. Then Qin Fang stood up and said, "Lao Yang, Lao Lu, according to what the waiter said, there are about a hundred bandits, but it remains to be seen whether the number is accurate. Our current strength is sufficient, so we need to bring more people to be prepared.”

Captain Yang: "Yes. Who are you going to bring, General?"

Lieutenant Lu also looked at Qin Fang.

Qin Fang said: "You each select a hundred soldiers from your own team, fifty of them are original soldiers and the other fifty are barbarian soldiers."

Barbarian was temporarily called Barbarian by Qin Fang, and it was not pleasant to call him Barbarian.

These barbarian soldiers were originally on the battlefield, but their leader led them to surrender, so they could not go to the battlefield, but this did not mean that they were useless. When it comes to fighting, they have the qualities of soldiers.

Colonel Yang and Lieutenant Lu: "Yes."

They left the camp and quickly selected a hundred soldiers from their own ranks, and then Qin Fang went out. He came to two hundred soldiers: "Soldiers, today we are going to do a big thing, for ourselves and for the people in the county." Qin Fang's voice was stern and steady, and the soldiers stood up straight. Waist bar. "There is a den of robbers right here on Wulippo. I am going to suppress the bandits. After the suppression of the bandits, the people in the county will have a stable life, and our military pay will be sufficient, so we can eat fish and meat."

"Suppress bandits...suppress bandits...suppress bandits..."

The soldiers were in high spirits. In this matter, everyone was wasting away and was bored, but suddenly being able to do something meaningful was very exciting.

When the suffering doctor heard what was said above, he couldn't help but ran out: "General Qin, are you going to take everyone to suppress the bandits?"

Qin Fang looked at the doctor: "Do you know about the bandits in Wulipo?" Yes, the doctor is also from the county. When he asked about it before, he had forgotten about him. If he had known earlier, he would not have to go to the county seat and ask him directly.

The doctor looked at Qin Fang and looked at the soldiers. The rain hit him and he was wet, but he didn't seem to feel it. He looked at them for a while, and finally asked seriously: "General Qin, are you really going to suppress the bandits?"
