Wei and Jin cooks

Zhao Hanzhang gave them the injection without any psychological burden, and then walked out of the medical tent. Fan Ying came to report excitedly, "Girl, they said there is a cottage sixty miles east along the official road, and the people in it are very powerful, so Many young people in their village have gone there to become bandits and do not want to stay with them in the village."

Zhao Hanzhang: "Aren't you still a bandit?"

"Good birds choose trees to live in. Maybe the bandit leader over there is more powerful and makes more money?"

Zhao Hanzhang: "Then go and find out clearly. They will be the next bandit den we want to destroy."

Fan Ying has been with Zhao Hanzhang for a while and knows that before every battle, scouts must collect information. In the words of Zhao Hanzhang who taught Zhao Erlang, information is the key to winning or losing a war.

As the saying goes, only by knowing your enemy and yourself can you fight without danger.

Fan Ying followed the order and plunged into the newly conquered bandits.

The distance between the two gangster dens was not very far, and most of the people who became bandits were villagers, so a lot of news was circulated. Seeing that Fan Ying was kind and a beautiful little lady, they did it. She just poured beans out of a bamboo tube when she asked. He said, "My cousin works as a bandit in that mountain. The food is much better than outside. He can eat two meals a day, and every meal is six cents full."

Fan Ying: "Can't you do it?"

They shook their heads directly, "We only eat one meal a day. Now that the weather is cold, food is even harder to find. We can live a day with only half full."

A young man about the same age as Fan Ying blushed and said, "Actually, we are so weak because we don't have enough to eat. We were much stronger before than now."

Fan Ying raised her head and glanced at him, "Why, do you still want to beat our governor?"

"Don't dare, don't dare," the middle-aged man on the side gave the young man a slap in the face, patted his head off, and said to Fan Ying in a flattering manner: "Young people just like to talk nonsense, how dare we hit the governor?"

Fan Ying snorted and was not as polite as before, and asked directly: "Why do you want to be a bandit when you can't even eat a full meal?"

The middle-aged man sighed and said, "If I didn't become a bandit, I wouldn't even have this meal of gruel."

He said: "We didn't go to the bandits to do it, but we just ran out of food at home. The Huns soldiers were very vicious and robbed everything in the village. We had no choice but to go out."

"My aunt's family is here, and our father and son came to seek refuge. As a result, their family members died, so we buried them, lived in their house, and lived with the people in this village," he said, "We were just hungry. , so I couldn’t help but go out to grab food.”

In fact, they were worried and didn't know what to do.

"Before you came, it was mentioned more than once outside that the new governor was ruthless and would not allow gangsters to appear under his control, so he would kill everyone he saw."

Fan Ying was angry, "Who spread this rumor? Our commander is kind-hearted. Did you see that he surrendered without killing, voluntarily surrendered, and even treated your wounds? There are better governors in the world than our commander." ?"

"Yes, yes, I also think this news is unreliable, because I heard later that the bandit villages in other places were fine after being wiped out, and they were still cultivating in the original place," he asked cautiously: "Girl, Can people like us, father and son, stay in this village?"

Fan Ying frowned and looked at him, "Isn't your home from Sanshi Village? It's not far from here, why don't you go back to the original village?"

The middle-aged man smiled bitterly and said: "The land in Sanshi Village is relatively poor, far inferior to that here, and our village is already empty. If we are sent back, there will only be three households after all."

Fan Ying lowered her head and flipped through the booklet, and found that there were actually three households registered in Sanshi Village. She closed the booklet with an expressionless face, "I will mention this to Shijun, but the second rumor It's quite reliable. Our envoy treats every citizen under his rule well, and we hope that you can repay the envoy."

The middle-aged man said "Yes" repeatedly.

Fan Ying brought the topic back and said to the young man who had just spoken: "Your cousin can make such a good living as a bandit on that mountain, why don't you go?"

The young man was listening to them attentively, and his mind was still on the farm. After hearing this, he said "Ah" and said quickly: "I want to come, but they think I am too thin and not strong enough, so they don't want me." ."

Fan Ying looked at the other person carefully. He was indeed thin, but in this era, thinness is the main thing. It would be strange if someone was chubby. How rich would he be?

But seeing that he was still tall and could not even apply for this, Fan Ying frowned slightly and asked: "Then do you know where they got so much food? You have never thought of imitating them and saving more food. ? Now that the weather is getting colder, we will need more and more food later, right?"

"Oh, we can't learn from this. They just robbed Wubao directly," he said. "Most villages are having a hard time. The big villages have built Wubao. It's not easy to rob, so we can fight some." Biangu, unlike them, can rush directly into the Wubao to grab food."

He said: "They have robbed several Wubao, so there is no shortage of food."

When Fan Ying heard this, she became thoughtful and asked, "Are there many of them?"

"There must be many, at least three to four hundred people."

The middle-aged man immediately said: "It's more than that. Didn't we go see them when they attacked Chenjiawu Fort? I think there must be at least five or six hundred people."

After Fan Ying asked around, the number of bandits on the mountain had increased from three to four hundred to three to four thousand.

Fan Ying:......

After seeing this, Zhao Kuan couldn't help but laugh out loud and said happily: "This is similar to Erlang's One Hundred Thousand Soldiers."

When Fan Ying heard this, she immediately closed the book with a snap and looked at him with a frown, "Why did the girl call you back and leave Sister Sun in Xiping?"

I suspect he went through the back door.

Zhao Kuan: ...Do you think he wants to come?

Since returning to Zhao Hanzhang, how has he slept peacefully?

Zhao Kuan said with a serious face: "If you need me, I can go wherever you want."

When Fan Ying heard this, she was satisfied and even invited him, "Let's go and report to the girl together."

Zhao Kuan nodded seriously, and after Fan Ying took the first step, he showed a helpless expression behind her. Who doesn't know that Fan Ying admires Zhao Hanzhang extremely, and whoever dares to say bad things about Zhao Hanzhang in front of her will definitely cause trouble for her afterwards.

Going around in circles, from Runan County to Yuzhou Governor's Office, Fan Ying was still in charge of the household house. Zhao Kuan is now said to be a partial general, but what he does in the army is logistics, and he needs to deal with the household house the most.

The two of them went to report to Zhao Hanzhang together.

Zhao Hanzhang flipped through Fan Ying's booklet and listened to her talk about the various information collected today. He couldn't help but sigh, "People's livelihood is difficult, and we have a long way to go."

Zhao Hanzhang looked at Zhao Kuan, "Do you know why I asked you to be this general?"

Zhao Kuan was slightly stunned.

Good night
