Chapter 23 Armed Robbery

"Brother, the third brother is a good method. Look at his fifty-slashing hand, his energy and spirit have changed in just a few days. His eyes are like the coyotes in the mountains. Their appetite these days is half more than before. If this continues, these people can become good players."

Ding Baojun has been following Yang Meng, and he also saw the training. It was really good to circle around Wuzhuang.

"Okay? Since you are good, you can follow the third brother's method to train other knife hands and buy fat land around the surrounding area. Just like the third brother, you can win over these knife hands, surround the farm, eat and eat to keep your fullness, and practice with a leather knife. The third brother is going to take back all the God owes him."

Yang Shiqin also understood the benefits of Yang Meng doing this. The more powerful the Yang family's knife hand, the more stable the Yang family will be. Why did Yang Meng train troops with great fanfare just for me to see.

"Brother, the Opium Horse Team has already settled. I have found all of them who do this business in scattered ways, related to court officials. I didn't provoke any of them. Look..."

Ding Baojun also found a goal for Yang Meng to steal opium. Whether this can be done depends on Yang Shiqin's intention.

"These people should be killed, remember! Don't touch the horse teams associated with the government. If you cut off your wealth, people will not let us go. As for those retail investors who want to make a fortune, how many of them are asked to rob the third brother, selling opium is all unethical things. No matter how much they kill, it will accumulate merit."

Yang Shiqin drooped his eyelids and said harsh words: Opium is not the only one who harms one person. If he sucks opium, his family will be destroyed. The smaller the family is, the greater the harm of opium.

Why did Zhou Shiqing, Yiliang and Zhou Shiqing, become a human trafficker? One is because of the profits, and the other is that those who have no money to smoke cigarettes have started selling their children and women. In Yang Shiqin's eyes, those who do opium should be destroyed.

"I understand, where are the people from the horse gang?"

"The horse gang? They are easy to trade but don't do it. Are they still horse gangs? The third brother will do whatever he wants. There are many people from the Qing Dynasty, so it's not bad for them!"

Ding Baojun received an order from Yang Shiqin, turned around and went to Yang Meng's yard, and told him one by one about the Opium Horse Team he had found.

"Does these horse gangs have no relationship with the government? There are also these opium caravans. Do they have any relationship with the government? All those who have relationships are eliminated. Now we are not opponents of the court and cannot touch them, but these horse gangs and merchants have to write down one by one, and then settle with them when we have the strength."

Yang Meng was very cautious when he was doing things for the first time. The court was powerful and he was just starting out and would not compete with the officials of the court. Opium was profitable and it was impossible for officials to participate.

"Don't worry, Master San, these are all casual merchants and have no contact with the government. When are you going to do it?"

Ding Baojun also admired Yang Meng, and his wit was about to catch up with the old man.

"Looking for a must-see, we ambush there, come and grab another team, prepare the tools to dig holes, and the dead will be buried directly."

When tracking the horse gang, Yang Meng was unwilling to work hard. He found a way to ambush down and kill one team. This is the shortcut to getting rich. Chasing hard and fighting hard is a business done by poor people.

Ding Baojun quickly found the location. As long as the turning point of a mountain road is disguised as a horse gang, they can naturally easily approach them.

"Let the kitchen prepare dry food for ten days and half a month, and we will leave tomorrow."

Yang Meng’s drug manufacturing factory is waiting for the raw materials to be put into the pot. Whether you can make money depends on the sales route. The earlier you do it, the more money you make, and time is gold and silver!

The next day, Yang Meng's fifty-one swordsman, Ma Qinghu, Tang Meiyi, and more than a hundred people led by Ding Baojun, embarked on the journey early. Today and tomorrow, there will be three caravans passing through the mountain road, and all of these three caravans are in the opium business.

"I've heard it all. This time I'm playing melee battle. Don't use the saber. Use the dagger I've given you. Remember not to keep a living mouth."

Yang Meng's more than 50 people were all wearing military boots and uniforms designed by him. He naturally felt a sense of courage when riding on horseback. When the other swordsmen of the Yang family saw it, they were envious. If they had known that they would be able to follow the Third Master in the circle, they would have bought more energy at that time.

Everyone has horses for more than 100 numbers, only Yang Meng is the only one who is going out to rob, not to play, so naturally he can't sit on the cart, and he is worried if he doesn't go. If something goes wrong, it will affect the old man's reputation.

Helplessly, he could only follow the horse team and eat bad food. Fortunately, Yang Meng, who was originally from a forest for many years, had no worse strength than that of the Dian horse. This horse team was also different from what he imagined. He did not gallop on the horse, but was just slowly rushing on the road. The same was true for other horse gangs, and there were almost no horse racing.

The horse team walked for a whole day and night, and did nothing but eat and rest, and spent everything walking.

This mountain road is a secret path without official checkpoints. It is also a must-pass way to smuggle various goods to the north of Kunming. At dawn, Yang Meng and his team met the first wave of horse teams.

This team is one of the target horse teams. Because Yang Meng and the others are in the open space, this team, on the mountain road, according to the rules, Yang Meng and the others need to wait, and it is also necessary to be on guard with a knife, which creates conditions for Yang Meng to ambush them.

The number of horse teams that came was not large, with only more than fifty people, more than twenty horse gangs, and more than twenty sword-bearing guards, they were also on guard.

Yang Meng's horse team had a large number of people, and just sandwiched the mountain road in the middle. The two horse teams greeted each other and they slowly prepared to pass.

They had no doubt about the appearance of Yang Meng's horse team. Although this road is secret, they know a lot. In order to make more money, many people are willing to take this mountain road.

"kill!"

When the horse team was surrounded, Yang Meng took the lead and stabbed the three guards beside him to death one after another. Other swordsmen also rushed forward. In just over ten minutes, the horse team of more than fifty people only died of horses and goods.

"Buried the corpse!"

I don’t have time to care about anything else, so I buried the body first, and after a while, the ambush traces were cleaned up.

"Uncle Ding, let your people take the horse team back to Wuzhuang, let's continue waiting."

Yang Meng checked the casualties, and all the people who took action were his. The training has been good these days. None of them died, but only five or six were injured. Most of them were injured. The worst one was kicked off by a horse and the others were all injured by flesh.

The one with the broken leg was sent away with the horse team. Yang Meng and the others also turned around and came to ambush in the distance, waiting for the arrival of the second horse team.

The result changed. In the evening, a team of nearly 200 people arrived. This number was nearly twice that of Ding Baojun's reconnaissance. Whether this team could rob or not became a big problem.

"San Master, what should I do? These two horse teams are united. They are crowded, so let's give in!"

Yang Meng was also thinking in his mind that if he attacked this horse team, he would definitely suffer casualties, but in order to start work quickly, he didn't care about so many things. Besides, if his subordinates want to become good players, they must not do less errands with less. Since they are eating this bowl of rice, they have to work hard.

"Do it! It's still the same as before, I'm fighting with my own hands. This time, I'll let my brothers carry a long sword. This is a hard battle. If I don't do it well, I'll lose my life. Be careful."

Yang Meng decided that this time, more than 50 of his subordinates would take action. If it really doesn't work, Ding Baojun will come on again. Most of the swordsmen Ding Baojun brought were hired. Unlike Yang Meng's subordinates, they are already half of the Yang family.

Unexpectedly, the horse team opposite also planned to be evil. When the two horse teams passed by, both sides launched a raid at the same time.

Yang Meng's manpower is more powerful than his skill. The group of people has the advantage in terms of numbers. With more than fifty swordsmen and more than one hundred swordsmen, Yang Meng was not at all inferior.

Yang Meng killed fifteen or sixteen of the two daggers in this battle. Tang Meiyi, who was following him, also had a small victory. The knife hand solved the remaining horse gang, and the remaining horse gang was better solved. Yang Meng handed over the horse gang of seventy or eighty people to Ding Baojun's manpower.

Now almost everyone has taken lives in their hands. It is impossible to go back and think about rebelling. No one will understand that killing people will pay for their lives. This is best if it is rotten in the stomach.

When burying people and cleaning the battlefield, Yang Meng's people died twelve of them, four seriously injured, and almost everyone was injured. He worked fifty and one hundred, and sixteen were killed and injured, which was a great victory.

The dead knife hand was disguised as he was on the horse. The group took advantage of the night to hurry to Wuzhuang. Fortunately, the Yang family was familiar with the people on this mountain road, otherwise it would be dangerous to rush to the mountain road at night. After resting for a day, everyone rushed back to Wuzhuang at dawn the next day.

Two more people were seriously injured on the road, and the other two were also considered useless. One of the dead gave two hundred Yingyang's pensions, one hundred and five were disability, and everyone who participated in the robbery gave fifty. The aftermath alone cost nearly 20,000 Yingyang. I don't know what the harvest was like.

Ding Baojun went to estimate the goods, but Yang Meng was examining a corpse. Most of the injuries were in the chest and abdomen. Only one of them was stabbed on the neck, and all the others were stabbed to death.

It seems that I should have my knife handle and breastplate. If I have this thing, at least more than ten people will be killed. Most of the opponent's knife is not very sharp. As long as I can defend against a stab, my own hands will not lose so much.

It took a day to provide pensions, burials, and clean up goods. The harvest this time was good. I snatched a total of 50 dan of high-quality cloud soil, totaling 5,000 kilograms. According to the market price, a dan of high-quality cloud soil is worth about 500 taels, totaling 25,000 taels.

Medium cloud soil, seventy dan, a total of seven thousand kilograms, worth 21,000 taels, and top-quality Indian tobacco paste, worth 15,000 taels.

There were also 30,000 silver ingots, more than 8,000 eagle oceans, 1,000 scattered gold and silver, 270 Yunnan horses, 200 horse sabers and waist knives, 200 new foreign guns, and several bullets and gunpowder.

The best gain is three new foreign guns. These are not the bird guns of the Qing Dynasty. They lift the guns, but the foreign guns used by foreign devils. Fortunately, these are goods, otherwise the casualties of Yang Meng will increase.

Yang Meng has no time to deal with these things, so he still has to comfort his swordsmanship. Don’t let their morale be depressed because of the death of others, as this will affect the next action.

The result surprised him. His subordinates were surprisingly excited. A brother died and did not show much sadness. This result made Yang Meng both happy and a little strange.

"Wei Tuozi, come here."

As the leader of the Dao Shu, who led the fight, Wei Tuozi got two hundred eagle oceans. After earning a lot of money, he came to Yang Meng with a red face.

"San Master, what are your instructions? After this time, Wei Tuozi's life is yours."

"Wei Tuozi, you are not afraid of killing so many people this time. There is also that Yi man, isn't he dead brother? Why don't he see a trace of sadness?"

The people under my command are the Yi people, and most of them are from the Zhuang people. These people are either from the same village, but they know each other and have no friends. They should not be like this.

"San Master, you don't know our suffering. Most of these people can't survive and come out to be swordsmen. If one person dies, the whole family can live a good life. This is much better than the whole family starving to death. Why do we be sad? If we don't die, the ones who starve to death are younger brothers and sisters, or parents and parents. If we die, let them live a good life, it will not be in vain! In fact, what we should thank most is the third master. If you didn't bring us with you, how could the family have a good life."

After hearing this, Yang Meng was not happy. What kind of imperial court was this Qing Dynasty that could make these mountain people laugh at death. How sad these mountain people were before, they even ignored their lives for just a hundred cold silver dollars.

"Oh...what is the world!"
