Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 5 Bandits
In the next few days, Wufeng negotiated with Zhan Zhaobai and Wei Dongchen again, and Xiao Tang came out to temporarily borrow 300,000 imperial gold coins from the two families. The two expressed their support free of charge, but Wufeng politely declined , agreed to return it within three months, and calculate the interest according to the current market interest rate, but asked the two to take the lead in expanding production and operation, and move all their family, relatives and property back to Qingyang, and the two also agreed to take the lead and actively become other businessmen work. At the same time, many businessmen from the Department of Internal Affairs, where Mo Lun works, also went to confess and report. Mo Lun also adhered to Wufeng’s opinion, completed the registration and filing, and encouraged these people to let go of their burdens and expand production. The government will not blame the past, but in the future must be reported first.
---- Qingyang government's policy of attracting investment and encouraging immigrants quickly spread throughout the empire and the mainland, and it was soon reflected that many homeless wanderers lost their land and could not survive Farmers, bankrupt small producers, craftsmen, technicians, and workers eager to work have all come to Qingyang one after another. Although the number is not large, they have made a good start after all.
---- The training of the troop went smoothly under the strict requirements of Wufeng. Liang, Cui, Mu, and Ka personally went to the field to supervise and inspect every day, and passed on the method of breath adjustment originally taught by Wufeng to every soldier. , the effect is remarkable. The wounded and sick have also basically recovered. Except for some who were disabled due to injuries and lost combat effectiveness, the others have returned to the team.
----Intelligence collection work is very smooth, because the local people have long hated foreign enemies and horse thieves and bandits, they have actively cooperated with the government, actively reported and reported suspicious persons, and achieved good results.
----"A fat sheep is coming." When Mo Lun walked into Wufeng's study excitedly, Wufeng was worrying about how to complete the task of "raising funds" to the imperial capital. It looks like a piece of cake, but it is really not an easy task to actually complete this task. First of all, the work must be done in front of His Majesty the Emperor. Wufeng is still sure about this, but then the specific handling will be handled by the Imperial Finance Department. Tian Yi, the Imperial Finance Minister, is not an easy person to dismiss, so he has to think about it carefully. Think about how to get his work done, otherwise he will tell you that the treasury is empty and there is no money, and he will be in trouble.
----"What fat sheep?" Wufeng asked Mo Lun who interrupted his thoughts angrily.
----"Hey hey hey" Mo Lun burst into a sinister smile, laughing until Wufeng felt hairy, "What kind of fat sheep? Tell me clearly, I think you look like a **** fat sheep!" Looking at Mo Lun's short and fat man, Wufeng asked again.
----Perhaps because he was in a good mood, Mo Lun acted as if he hadn't heard Wufeng's sarcasm at all, "There is reliable information that some people in our Qingyang Mansion are in collusion with the Luobei people and the bandits, and This person has considerable assets, and he has not yet reported to me."
----"Oh?" Wufeng became interested when he heard it, "Who is it? Is the news reliable? Do you have any money?"
---- "There should be no problem with the information. This person moved to Qingyang from other places more than ten years ago. He lives in a village near the border between Qingyang and the Grand Duchy of Luzon in the mainland. He usually communicates with Qingyang These businessmen in the government do not have many contacts. I heard that the village is controlled by him alone, and he himself has more than a thousand private armed forces. He did not come to this banquet, but he came to the previous celebration. Pamela." Moron's eyes flashed with excitement.
---- "How about the source of information? Don't make a mistake." Although he is eager to gain something, Wufeng is still extremely cautious, because making mistakes in such things will greatly damage his hard-earned establishment image of.
----"This guy has already aroused our suspicion. His location belongs to the boundary of Jieshi Town, which is not far from the area where the Luobei people invade every year. He said that he paid a certain amount of money for the looting of the Luobei people, which is suspicious. The Luobei people are not good men and women. How could they accept the tribute from a small village instead of a pot? In addition, since this person took root there After that, almost every year, caravans coming from or going to the Grand Duchy of Luzon were ransacked by unidentified robbers. This is the second; Pamela’s private armed forces had done it and then ran out. After a lot of work and promises of huge profits, we finally dug out this population. Instigated, pretending to be a robber, looting the passing caravan. This alone can arrest Pamela, of course, this must require the support of the army, otherwise the few policemen under me will definitely not work." Mo Lun Yang Yang Said proudly.
---- "If the information can be confirmed, then you have made a great contribution this time." Wu Feng is also full of expectations, "Maybe there are some unexpected gains. Come, please invite Master Liang and Master Cui to come. I came here and said I have something important to discuss."
---- "If the captive has a beautiful woman, don't forget to reward me with one." Before leaving, Mo Lun still reminded Wufeng.
----When Liang and Cui listened to Wufeng's introduction, they both stood up excitedly, wishing they could set off immediately. Under Wufeng's gesture, they realized that they had lost their composure and quickly sat down , this kind of opportunity is really rare. However, according to Wufeng, it is more than enough to go to one division, there is no need to go to two divisions together, besides, Fucheng also needs to be guarded. Liang Chongxin and Cui Wenxiu immediately quarreled over who should lead this mission. In the end, Wufeng had to make a decision to let Cui Wenxiu's Second Security Division go on the expedition, but half of the spoils should be given to the First Security Division. Cui Wenxiu heard When it was said that the Second Division would set out for the expedition, he was so happy that he could not close his mouth from ear to ear, and he immediately agreed, leaving Liang Chongxin depressed alone.
---- Cui Wenxiu immediately dispatched a capable reconnaissance force, and three days later, the reconnaissance force returned with satisfactory information.
----Wu Feng and Cui Wenxiu led more than 6,000 horsemen from the Second Security Division to quietly leave Qingyang Fucheng under the cover of night. After a day and night of marching, they finally arrived at the corner of the destination Jieshi Town Yueshanzhuang.
----Looking at the dark building in front of him, Wu Feng couldn't tell what he felt. It is so cruel that no one can change it. Let's hope this Pamela is a man of the moment. Cui Wenxiu was making arrangements in an orderly manner, and soon, the entire village was surrounded and airtight, and the soldiers were all gearing up, waiting for the officer's order.
---- With Wufeng's wave of his hand, thousands of torches lit up at the same time, illuminating the whole village like daylight. In less than half an hour, the private soldiers in the village disarmed and surrendered, except for a few recalcitrants who were chopped into meat on the spot. Other villagers in the village were ordered to stay at home and were not allowed to go out. There was nothing serious about it, but they all knew that something must have happened to Mr. Pamela in the village.
----When the soldiers broke through the iron gate of the mansion in the center of the village, Wu Feng and Cui Wenxiu had already arrived in front of the gate. A warm smile appeared on Feng's face: "Mr. Pamela, are you all right?"
---- "Lord Li, I don't know what to do when I bring this old man out of bed in the middle of the night? It's so difficult that you want to commit robbery?" in the end.
---- "Bold!" "What a brave dog!" Amidst the scolding of the soldiers, Wufeng gestured for the soldiers to keep quiet, "Mr. Pamela, we don't need to argue anymore, Who is right and who is wrong, the truth will be revealed in a short while." Wu Feng still had a calm look.
----Soon, the soldiers searched out a large number of correspondence with the Luobei people from the dark compartment of the study room, including the personal letters of Tu Da, the general of Luobei who conquered the East, and even Several letters with officials of the Grand Duchy of Luzon. The interrogation of several small leaders among the private soldiers also came to fruition very quickly. In the face of these conclusive evidence, Pamela could only remain silent.
----The harvest is huge. From the seized darkroom, nearly one million gold coins of banknotes from banks in various countries in the mainland were found, as well as a large number of calligraphy and paintings, treasures, antiques, rare medicinal materials, etc., the most impressive Wufeng is satisfied that there are still two books, one is a refined detailed topographic map of the northwest counties of the empire, and the other is a refined detailed topographic map of the Grand Duchy of Luzon. This can't help but make Wufeng have deep doubts about Pamela's identity.
----As soon as he returned to Qingyang Fucheng, Wufeng ordered Morun to organize people to interrogate Pamela as soon as possible, and sent special personnel to guard Pamela. At the same time, he declared that Pamela was the leader of the bandits and displayed The relevant evidence was obtained, but Pamela's other identity was kept secret.
----Wufeng will nationalize the large amount of money seized, and give some rewards to the army. Among them, each soldier of the Second Security Division will be rewarded with 20 gold coins, and each soldier of the First Security Division will be rewarded with 10 gold coins. Certain rewards were also given to the intelligence department led by Mo Lun. Most of the captured private soldiers came from poor local families. After education, most of them joined the two garrison divisions. After obtaining a large amount of funds, Qingyang Mansion's finances have been greatly eased, and the development plan has also been quickly launched.
----Under various methods such as fatigue bombing by the intelligence agency and family attacks, Pamela quickly revealed his true identity. He was originally a refugee from the Sithrow Empire, named Sardin. Living on the East Tengger prairie, he was caught by the Luobei people and gave him a sum of money. Thirteen years ago, he sneaked into Qingyang under a pseudonym to buy land and build a house. He became a landlord and shouldered the responsibility of the Luobei people The important task of collecting intelligence information from the northwest counties of the empire, especially the three prefectures of Qingyang, Bonan, and Guide, was later hooked up with people from the Grand Duchy of Luzon in the southwest through various relationships, and has since become a double agent. I also recruited a group of people privately, organized them, and used the convenient geographical location to continuously disguise and loot the caravans that came and went.
----Looking at Pamela's confession presented by Mo Lun, Wufeng fell into deep thought. This small Qingyang mansion is really hidden. Feet, it seems that it is the best policy to be more careful. Maybe I should observe again. Although I have blinded the Luobei people and the Luzon people in one eye, it is equivalent to reminding each other that they will definitely not be reconciled, and they will definitely have to re-designate candidates, so there is no It is so easy to master, but it is difficult to have both in the world. If you can take care of one end, you can’t take care of the other end~IndoMTL.com~ Fortunately, this Pamela’s "contribution" is not small, and it can be regarded as achieving the expected goal.
----With the backing of a large amount of money and rare treasures copied from Pamela's house, Wufeng has a lot of confidence. At least he has a certain foundation for going to the imperial capital to do business. A group of people in the bureau are thick-sighted and poisonous. If there is no real product, I am afraid they will not be able to pass the test. In addition, this time when returning to the imperial capital, several highnesses have to visit. Now we still need to maintain a good relationship, and our own strength is not enough to be completely self-reliant. The implementation of the new plan still needs a good environment and the strong support of the empire. These are inseparable. At least superficial support from a few His Royal Highnesses and some powerful officials.
----While thinking about the ministers who need to be dealt with, Wufeng was also thinking about leaving the imperial capital, so he should bring a gift back to Gu Ji, Guan, Hua, and An Sannv. , An Sannv, Wufeng's heart couldn't help but warm up, he had been away from the three daughters for more than three months, and he had only passed letters to them twice. Sometimes I even have to sleep with a letter on my pillow. The girl Lu Xianxian, although the relationship progressed rapidly, still failed to break through the last hurdle. Later, she was busy with work, and this girl went back to Jinzhou with her grandfather, but Wufeng was absolutely sure that she would not be able to escape from his grasp. It's just a matter of time.
----Due to the war-torn Qingyang Mansion, there is no romantic place at all. During the war, due to the high mental tension, I don't think that once the nerves relax after the war, it is inevitable to think wildly and stay for another two days , I'm afraid I'm really going to be driven crazy, it seems that I should discuss with Xiao Tang and the others, or we should encourage the vigorous development of this type of entertainment industry, which is also beneficial to the vitality of the economy, and can also solve some necessary problems for some people , such as yourself.
