After getting the equipment, and after another month of hard training, Dong Chuan believed that Qingyang Camp was fully capable of crushing the bandits.
With such a good source of soldiers and such good equipment, if you can't even defeat a group of bandits, then you are just a fool. Why not go home and hug your concubine to give birth to a child and play ball!
Only a few soldiers were left to look after the house. Commander Dong led Qingyang Camp and headed straight for Nanhu in high spirits.
He had already sent people to investigate the area of Nanhu. It was nothing more than a few large blisters. The terrain was not complicated, and it was not even as big as the mountains where some bandits were entrenched.
The only troublesome thing is that I don't have a warship. Once the water bandits escape into the water, it will be inconvenient to pack them up.
Therefore, Dong Chuan was prepared to take the situation by surprise. When the water bandits were unprepared, he rushed over and plowed the hole!
The area of South Lake is not large, and there are water bubbles in the east and west. It is not a large lake, and there are no such big islands in the water. Water bandits cannot survive on it for a long time, so the bandits' nest is on land.
Because they were fighting within Qingyang County, the Qingyang Battalion did not need to carry too many logistical supplies.
We set off in the morning and arrived at Nanhu Town before noon.
Nanhu Town is to the north of Nanhu and adjacent to Nanhu. So far, it is the only town in Qingyang County that has not been actually controlled by Yunchao.
Looking at the closed town gate, Dong Chuan yelled at the native archers on the town wall: "Asshole, I am Dong Chuan, the commander of the Qingyang Battalion, tell your patrol to get out!"
Unfortunately, Dong Chuan scolded him for a long time, but no one paid any attention to him.
In desperation, Dong Chuan had no choice but to give up his plan to let the Nanhu patrol assist, bypass Nanhu Town, and go to suppress the bandits himself.
Dong Chuan already knew where the South Lake water bandits' lair was.
The scouts of the Dongping Army are not vegetarians. Without some people causing trouble, finding the lair of a group of bandits is not a problem at all.
Following the path between some puddles, turning left and right, we walked for more than half an hour, bypassing several reed swamps, and a water village surrounded by water on three sides appeared in front of us.
The reason why Dong Chuan had the confidence to suppress the bandits was because Nanhu was not a dangerous place. If it were a big lake like Ohnozawa, let alone Qingyang Camp, even the Dongping Army would be blinded.
According to Dong Chuan's understanding, there are not many water bandits in Nanhu, only two to three hundred people.
Moreover, the current Nanhu water bandits are not as strong as before. It is said that they suffered a big loss in Woniu Mountain in the north not long ago. Many of the current water bandits are new members.
Dong Chuan really couldn't understand, how could a group of bandits who had been beaten into half-disabled condition dare to stroke the tiger's beard in Qingyang Camp over and over again? Aren't these guys afraid of death?
"My sons, Nanhu Water Village is right in front of you. Let's avenge our dead brothers!"
With that said, Dong Chuan waved his hand, and a vanguard of a hundred people rushed over with a roar!
Dong Chuan is a regular army and a professional. It is impossible to press the entire army up as soon as he comes up. He not only arranged the forwards, but also left a rear group.
It's a pity that just like a harried woman who has been separated for many years, a man finally comes. She is scratching her head, flirting, and making all preparations. But in the end, the man is dead. You say it is a disappointment or not.
Dong Chuan felt like this now. Before the vanguard could rush to the water village, the water bandits in the water village were sitting on wooden boats and escaped from the back door of the water village onto the water.
The water bandits on the boat shouted: "Dong, if I knew you were coming, we would have been ready to run away. If you have the ability, come and chase us!"
A few guys unbuttoned their pants and hissed in Dong Chuan's direction.
"asshole!"
"Son of a bitch!"
"A bunch of trash!"
Dong Chuan is not stupid, the news must have leaked, otherwise these water bandits would not be able to run so fast.
"Which donkey ball leaked the news? If I find out, I will have to skin him!"
"Commander, do you want to burn the water stronghold?"
Dong Chuan thought for a while and shook his head: "Let's not burn it first. If we burn the water stronghold, who knows where these water bandits will hide. It's better to keep their lair. Maybe we can catch them by surprise and find an opportunity to attack." Catching a turtle in a urn!"
After saying that, Dong Chuan waved his hand: "Let's go find a boat nearby and see where these bastards can escape!"
There are villages around Nanhu and Nanhu Town to the north. Dong Chuan plans to "borrow" a boat from the local people.
As a result, after wandering around for a long time, I only found a few small boats, each of which could carry a few people.
"asshole!"
"Son of a bitch!"
"It must be the Nanhu patrol that caused the trouble!"
Seeing that it would get dark if he didn't go back, Dong Chuan had no choice but to lead his people back to Qingyang Camp in despair.
Even Dong Chuan himself thought this rush to suppress bandits was a joke. I really don’t know what that guy Yun Er was doing. Didn’t you see it in such a big Nanhu Town?
Well, there's nothing wrong with Yun Chao's eyes. How could he not be able to see such a large area of Nanhu?
The reason why Nanhu Town has not been controlled until now is just that others don't know.
In fact, the inspection in Nanhu Town was over a long time ago. Just last month, he was beheaded by Wu Er with a knife, and then Yun Chao sent someone to use Li Dai Tao Zhan!
For a corrupt official who colluded with the water bandits, it was impossible for Yun Chao to leave him a way to survive.
There is also the inspection department of Nanhu Town, which is rotten from top to bottom. Yun Chao sent them all to Chiyanshan Iron Mine.
Don't forget, Yun Chao has a grudge against the Nanhu water bandits, and that big man with an eyepatch, Wu Jiaolong, has long been on Yun Chao's must-kill list.
On the night when the Nanhu patrol was destroyed, the Yun family army visited the Nanhu water bandit's lair.
All the water bandits who committed evil crimes, including Wujiao Long and Ma Erqiang, had their necks wiped by Wu Er and Li Dashan in their sleep. Their deaths were as painful as they could be.
Even if the water bandits wake up later, they won't be able to stir up any trouble. In front of the powerful Yun family army, the half-disabled Nanhu water bandits are just giving away food.
The current Nanhu inspections and the Nanhu water bandits are all Yun Chao's cover-up.
The purpose was to paralyze the enemy, and also to do some unspeakable things, such as diverting the attention of Magistrate Sun and others, or removing some military supplies from the Qingyang camp.
Dong Chuan's every move has been under Yun Chao's control for a long time. This guy led so many people to suppress bandits, how could Yun Chao not know about it.
The reason why they didn't take advantage of the geographical advantage to destroy Qingyang Camp was because most of Qingyang Camp were now Yun Chao's subordinates.
Yun Chao's purpose was to let Dong Ping raise troops for him and deliver military supplies for free, but he was not willing to kill Dong Chuan now.
After returning to Qingyang Camp, Dong Chuan learned the hard way and felt that with his current strength, without local cooperation, it would not be easy to completely eliminate the Nanhu water bandits.
There is no way, Qingyang camp has almost no water fighting ability.
Just when Dong Chuan was feeling gloomy, one of his subordinates offered advice: "Sir, why don't you ask Supervisor Dong of Dongping Mansion for help and ask him to send a few navy instructors to help our Qingyang Camp train for water warfare!"
