Three Kingdoms: God-level selection
Chapter 17
After defeating Huo Cong's 1,000 bandits, Su Yan's 200 elite soldiers were full of vigor and energy.
They formed a sharp contrast with the 600 bandits who were suppressed by them.
Two quarters of an hour later, Su Yan and his men arrived at the bandit camp on Baixiongling Mountain.
The entire camp had only a little over a thousand people.
Huo Cong took more than 90% of the people with him when he went down the mountain this time, and there were only a few left to guard the camp.
Seeing Su Yan and his men rushing in aggressively, the bandits guarding the camp did not even resist, but opened the gate and surrendered directly.
After the army entered, they seized the weapons of the remaining people inside, and then gathered them together and let Dian Wei guard them.
Su Yan waited for some soldiers to come to the camp hall and began to plunder the spoils inside.
It must be said that although these bandits are a mob, there are really a lot of good things.
Su Yan counted that there must be 40,000 to 50,000 stones of food alone.
In addition to this, there were countless gold and silver treasures inside, and Su Yan was almost dazzled by them.
In terms of equipment, there were quite a few weapons and equipment inside.
There were quite a few ring-handled swords, wooden shields, spears, armor, etc.
Including those taken from the thieves before, it was enough to fully arm an army of 500 people.
Su Yan waved his hand and asked people to load all of these onto the truck and move them away.
He came to the dormitory at the back and found quite a few women.
These were all decent women robbed by Huo Cong and others, and many of them were widows whose families were broken up.
Su Yan asked people to give them some money, so that those who had families could return alone, and those who had no families could go back to the county with him and work as odd jobs in the backyard of the county government.
Of course, Su Yan had no interest in them, he just felt sorry for them.
He came to a study room of Huo Cong and found a lot of secret letters inside.
As he opened them one by one, Su Yan laughed.
""I finally got the evidence. These can be used to clean up those pests."
He whispered to himself.
These are all the correspondence between the county magistrate, county lieutenant, and chief clerk of Zhuo County and Huo Cong.
The contents recorded in them are the evidence of their collusion.
With this as evidence, Su Yan can take action against them and completely purge the officialdom of Zhuo County.
"Come here, take all these letters away for me."
Su Yan had people seal up the letters inside, and then he and Dian Wei and others suppressed the thieves and returned to the county.
Before leaving, he found a more clever village chief and asked him to guard here with dozens of people.
Although the thieves here have been eliminated, the location of this village is a good place.
When he returns to thoroughly rectify Zhuo County and holds the power in his hands, he plans to move the military camp here.
The place here is large enough, and there is also the prototype of the previous village. It is perfect to set up a military camp for garrison and training.
Moreover, it is not far from the county. If the county is in trouble, they can come to support at any time.
After dealing with these, Su Yan and others officially embarked on the journey back.............
Zhuo County, the office of the county magistrate.
The county magistrate sat cross-legged in the hall, his heart already flying outside.
Thinking about Huo Cong going down the mountain to grab grain, he had no intention of handling government affairs at all, and threw all the big and small things aside.
The county magistrate was particularly excited when he thought that two hundred thousand stones of grain would be in his hands and a huge amount of wealth would enter his family's warehouse.
Time passed slowly, and the county magistrate sat in the hall with full expectation, waiting for the housekeeper to come and report the good news of Huo Cong's success.
However, time passed little by little, but no news came.
He began to get impatient, so he stood up and called the housekeeper in.
"master!"
"Is there any news from Huo Cong?"
"No, there is no news so far. Is there any problem, sir?"
"It's okay, you can go down"
""Yes!"
After the housekeeper left, the county magistrate began to pace back and forth in the hall, looking a little anxious.
Normally, Huo Cong should have succeeded at this time, and the news should have been passed on.
But why is there no sign of him at this time? Could it be that........Something happened?
The county magistrate couldn't help but guess in his heart.
But after thinking about it carefully, he felt it was impossible.
Huo Cong had been in Baixiongling for more than two years. It was not the first time that he went down the mountain to rob. Every time he did it, it was very successful. There was no reason for him to fail this time. He knew the strength of Huo Cong's men very well.
There were more than a thousand people, and they were well-equipped. Even the regular government troops were not their opponents.
In the vicinity of Zhuo County, except for a few big families, no one could defeat them.
And even if the family took action, they would not be able to take down Huo Cong without seven or eight hundred people.
He knew the armed forces of the Zhuo County families. Although they were quite powerful, it was not clear which family could take down Huo Cong alone.
If the big families really joined forces to take action, it would be impossible to hide it from his ears and eyes.
As far as he knew, except for the Zou family and the county magistrate Su Yan, the other families did not have any abnormal behavior.
And it was said that the Shao family had suffered a lot under Su Yan's hands, and they secretly hated him.
So after ruling out many factors, he really couldn't figure out what would happen.
""Bang!"
At this moment, the door outside was suddenly pushed open by the housekeeper, which instantly scared the county magistrate.
"Do you want to scare me to death?"
He glared at the butler and said
"Master, something terrible has happened!"
The housekeeper looked at him anxiously and said,"That kid county magistrate is back!"
"He's back, so what? He went out to inspect the farmland early in the morning. What's the big deal?"
The county magistrate stroked his beard, glared at him and said
"But sir, I think he came back with his army to suppress people."
"Pressing someone? Who?"
"I heard it was the bandits from White Bear Ridge!"
