Song Ganlai had long noticed Qian Sanniang and her group.

After he talked with the villagers in the morning, he continued to work in the fields. He didn't go back at noon, so he only ate a little dry food he brought.

He was busy until late afternoon when he went to the river to wash his hands and feet and prepare to go home. Then he saw a group of people coming from afar.

At first, Song Ganlai was very frightened and thought it was a horse thief, but he soon thought it was not. He had seen horse thieves. Whenever he saw someone near a village or seeing someone, the horse thieves would roar, and even kill and trample on others, wishing that the whole world would know that they were horse thieves.

But these people are very quiet, which is very different from the behavior of those horse thieves.

They came quietly to Fengshan Village and swam quietly across the river.

After crossing the Forage River, they all dismounted and let their mounts shake their hair and water happily. They also tidied up their clothes, wringed out the wet cloaks and clothes in the outside, and then rode on the horse and came over slowly.

Song Gan saw these people, all of them were fast horses, gray felt cloaks, and they seemed to be wearing armor, which was the dark gray iron-inlaid cotton armor.

He was more relieved that he had never heard of horse thieves wearing armor.

These people are not like the horse teams of officers and soldiers.

In the impression of Song Ganlai and others, there was no such horse team in Pizhou.

The officers and soldiers' cavalry teams were no better than horse thieves. They killed and set fire without any scruples.

This team of people is still quiet.

Finally, Song Ganlai saw that the leader of the Horse Team seemed to be a woman, a very young and very cool woman.

She was wearing a felt hat and a cloak, holding the reins with one hand, her eyes were as bright as cold stars, and she just quietly looked at the wheat fields in front of her.

She was still carrying a bow and arrow, and there were many things on the saddle. A pretty stout woman next to her, dressed up and was as young as she looked no more than twenty years old.

Song Ganlai was very surprised that it turned out to be a woman as the leader.

In Song Ganlai's impression, women, whether they are thin or thick, fat or fat, work hard inside and outside the house during the day, and work hard on and off the bed at night, silently enduring the hardships of life. It is very rare to show up like this and lead a strong man to run outside.

However, no matter how curious it was, Song Ganlai felt more at ease when he saw the group of people standing quietly and not harassing the people.

At the same time, he felt curious in his heart, who are these people?

Suddenly a thought arose in his mind, could these people be...these horse teams in Xin'anzhuang? That subordinate of Lord Yang?

His heart beat violently. If so, he had heard about it earlier. Lord Yang seemed to hate the bandits particularly. Whenever he arrived at a place, he would kill all the bandits. Should he tell these people about the bandits in Fengshan Village?

However, he was still hesitant and struggling. Even if he wanted it, the common people would instinctively fear and refuse to approach. Looking at the neighbors around him, they would look like they were thrusting their legs at any time.

While hesitating, he heard the leading woman speak and asked him to go over and ask.

Song Ganlai was still hesitant, so the woman took out something from the basin and threw it over.

Song Ganlai picked it up and saw that it was a tael of silver. He immediately felt relieved.

One tael of silver is not a small amount, and it is rarely seen in rural areas. Basically, copper coins are circulated here. With this gain, it can greatly subsidize the household income. Generally, if you harm the other party, you will not give money. This psychological change is very subtle.

Song Ganlai happily put the silver into his arms and hurried over.

Qian Sanniang saw that the villagers came over and indeed threw away the silver. This time they went on a trip, Xiang Gong Yang paid 150 taels of silver as public expenses for use on the road. If you have any money, you can also withdraw it from the inside.

Sure enough, it was used.

Qian Sanniang saw that the villagers walked to the horse with some fear. They might be in their thirties, but they were too old. She said, "That man, we are under the command of Lord Yang, the General Secretary of the Suining, and came out to investigate the thieves in the green mountains. Have you heard of the news about them?"

Under Qian Sanniang's eyes, Song Ganlai Youruo fell into the ice cellar, making him awake all over his body.

I felt that the female leader was so cold and fierce, and the casual man dared not look at her. However, she heard her words clearly and couldn't help but feel happy and said tremblingly: "You, are you really the one who likes to kill bandits. Every time you go to the place, the local bandits are dead?"

Qian Sanniang said: "That's right, we are under Lord Yang's command. Lord Yang will soon be the General Secretary of the Pizhou, and the local bandits will die. If you know the bandits, or even the Green Mountain bandits, you will be rewarded if you tell them. If you don't tell them, you will hide and cover up and commit crimes with the bandits. Do you know the news about the Green Mountain bandits recently?"

At this time, many villagers in the fields also gathered and stood from afar to listen.

When he was curious about the woman as the leader, he said that Cao Cao would arrive, and everyone was looking forward to joy. However, when the female leader talked about bandits and even bandits, some villagers opened their mouths and swallowed them back when they were about to come.

The bandits in the village colluded with the bandits outside the country. They would not know when they would die. Not to mention the stronger green mountain thieves and horses. The farmers in the country are always frightened and afraid, so how dare they offend these powerful bandits who take their lives at any time?

In fact, ordinary villagers dare not even offend ordinary scoundrels in the village.

Looking ahead and looking back, timid and afraid of things, they are destined to be bullied by fish and meat.

However, Song Gan came here with some slightest tricks, commonly known as doing things without regard for consequences. Year by year, he had long hated the bandits in the village, especially hated them for colluding with bandits outside and bullying their neighbors. At this time, he was angry and said, "I know, I know, there are bandits in my village..."

He knelt down with a loud voice and cried: "These killers who kill thousands of kids are specifically used to harm their neighbors. They really deserve to be cut into pieces."

Song Ganlai cried and said with resentment. According to him, although Fengshan Village is small, with more than 100 households, there are as many as five or six households who work as bandits in full-time, and more than a dozen households who work as bandits in part.

These bandits are full of conscience, especially those who work as bandits, do everything they can.

They kidnap and extort are just casual, and it is even more common for collusion with outsiders to harm villagers.

"...These thieves are really not human. There is a family in my village, a commoner who is kind to others. However, one night last year, the family of six was wiped out, and even the babies who were not born were thrown into the fire to death. After this incident, the villagers were surprised because the family had no money. After more than a month, a thieves bragged and revealed their own words, just for the sake of a chicken."

Song Ganlai burst into tears: "The thief went to visit the family and saw that the family was eating chicken. He felt jealous and said, "Why can he eat chicken? I can't?" Because of this, he colluded with bandits outside and wiped out the family, and even searched out the last bit of his family's grain."

"There are too many such things in recent years. This year, three more families have been wiped out, all of whom are poor and rich, and one of them is my neighbor... I have been a neighbor for decades. I am a good person. I deserve to die because I have raised more than thirty sheep? In February, a family in my village was tied up. It was a bandit who heard that his family had bronze ware heirlooms, which might be worth a few dollars, so they had to kidnap for blackmail. The man borrowed profits and finally paid the redemption silver, but his son and daughter were torn. Especially the daughter's body was carried back, and no one dared to look at it!"

Song Gan came to snatch the sky and the earth, and the villagers around him also shed tears silently.

They are all villagers from the same village, and they empathize with all kinds of experiences, and maybe it will be their turn when it is.

At the same time, some villagers were surprised. Song Erlang said it all in one go, and it seemed that he was not going to leave a way out.

Qian Sanniang listened quietly, and murderous intent appeared in her heart. She had no good feelings for the bandits. The loss of her sister Qian Wuniang was inseparable from the bandit gangs among the people.

There are also many escorts in the past few years, and the bandits who meet the most on the road are bandits. In order to make a living, they always have to swallow their anger and accept blackmail from all the bandits.

Almost 60% of the money her father earned in escorts over the years was placed on the management site, and the hard-earned money that the escort agency earned was leaked out in vain.

Qian Sanniang was furious when she saw it. She once vowed that if she had the chance, she would definitely kill all the bandits in the world, and see if they dared to blackmail her.

Song Gan said more and more, he beat his chest and paused his feet, and cried in tears. He said that the bandits in the village were not humans, and some even had to do this from generation to generation since the Southern Song Dynasty.

They do not farm and cultivate land, and they focus on the village or nearby families. Anyone who has a little money will be in trouble.

Now he even colluded with Qingshan bandits to help outsiders to blackmail.

Why?

Song Ganlai was very angry.

The government is tolerant of the heavy taxes and taxes. These thieves are not officials or officials. Why do they want to extort money and food and even take away their last life-saving rations?

He was extremely dissatisfied.

These thieves dare to be crazy and blackmail and harm their neighbors. Now that the opportunity has come, he wants to let them die.

Song Gan came and cried, and the whistleblowers were also filled with righteous indignation. They came from the bottom of the class and actually empathized with many bandits.

Qian Sanniang heard Song Gan come and kowtow and cry. Although what he said was inconsistent, she still got a keen message that there were not only bandits in Fengshan Village, but also colluded with the thieves in Qingshan. This was good news.

It takes no effort to find any place to find the iron shoes.

She looked at each other with Li Ruwan beside her and said, "You guy, you said that the bandits in the village had collusion with the bandits in the green mountains, may you know where they are?"

Song Gan said, "It's true. Recently, Qingshan bandits have issued a notice to each village, saying that each household needs to receive a lot of food and salary, which is very detailed. It's not that the bandits in each village have colluded with the horse bandits, how can the Qingshan bandits who killed thousands of swords know so clearly?"

He also told me that recently bandits from nearby villages gathered in Fengshan Village, swaggering, not knowing what they were discussing.

Qian Sanniang took out another five taels of silver from the cabin and threw it to Song Ganlai: "Okay, this is a reward for you."

She glanced at Pei Pochuan and Ling Zhanyun in the team: "What do Captain Pei and Captain Ling say?"

At this time, Pei Pochuan and Ling Zhanyun gathered together to show their whistle, like a war horse, a gray felt cloak, a cavalry-operated winged tiger gun and a Xin'an hand gun.

The two men were carrying the horse spear and the hook and sickle spear, as well as rockets and bows.

Upon hearing this, Pei Pochuan said coldly: "All the bandits in the village are killed, and no one is left behind."

He heard Song Ganlai crying and his stomach was so angry that he couldn't help but think of the "Li Zhuang" thing in the past, and there was only one word in his heart: "Kill!"

Ling Zhanyun said: "The bandits must be killed, but they must leave behind a few surviving torture."

So he decided to kill all the bandits, leave a few living mouths, and ask if there are any whereabouts of the Qingshan horse thieves nearby.

Then they arrested the horse thieves and learned from them about their nest.

Qian Sanniang asked Song Gan again about some things, such as how many bandits gathered in the village and how powerful they were.

Finally, I learned that there were nearly fifty bandits gathered in Fengshan Village recently. In addition to knives and axes, some of them had bows and arrows. They are currently gathered in the Temple of the Holy Mother at the foot of the north mountain in the village.

The soldiers were very fast, and Qian Sanniang immediately ordered to set off and asked Song Ganlai to ride a horse to lead the way, led by a whistle.

Song Ganlai did not forget to bring his farm tools with him, and soon they left, leaving behind rolling dust.

The rest of the villagers in the fields were amazed and discussed, and each of them felt that it was time for the fate of the people in Fengshan Village to turn.

Many people couldn't bear the excitement in their hearts and even followed them to see.

...

There have always been many temples in northern villages, and so are Fengshan Village.

Although the village is small, there are many temples. Just outside the village, there is Niuwang Temple in the east, the land temple in the west, and the Dragon King Temple in the south.

There are two temples in the north of the village, along the hillside, Guandi Temple to the northeast, and Holy Mother Temple to the northwest.

Qian Sanniang and her team passed by the outside of the village like a whirlwind and headed towards the Temple of the Holy Mother. Along the way, the low walls of the thatched adobe houses in the middle and low, and occasionally some brick and tile houses. Like many villages, the walls of the village are also dug to a bumpy outside, making it difficult for bandits to attack the village.

Then the east and south of the village also attracted river water to protect the village.

There are more than 100 young and strong people in Fengshan Village. It is no problem to prevent small groups of bandits. Unfortunately, it is difficult to prevent thieves from being in danger. There are too many bandits in the village who understand the inside story, which makes the village's defense sieve like a leaky air, and now it is even more at the point of fending off one's own life.

Qian Sanniang and others walked from the west of the village, and there were also wheat fields in the east and west.

Judging from the growth, although it is not as good as the fields in the east and south, the crops are ripe and they always harvest the flesh of the people in each village.

They rode from the small path, which attracted screams from the villagers working in the fields along the way.

Then the Iron Cavalry left, and everyone was stunned, in horror, asking each other out.

Under the guidance of Song Ganlai, the party soon came not far from the Holy Mother Temple and saw the main hall and gate tower from afar.

It can be seen that this temple was once brilliant, with beautiful buildings and brilliant golden colors. Now only weeds are left in the yard and cracks in the temple walls are eroded.
