Xie Jin wanted to cry but had no tears.

After so many days of preparation and countless dollars spent, something went wrong right in front of us.

He angrily stated that when Zhou Yue comes back, he will be hanged for three days.

But where would Zhou Yue go back?

At this time, Zhou Yue had already gone to Baishi Mountain with dozens of carts of money and food prepared for General Yu Xiao.

Of course, the servant in charge of escorting the car did realize that the route was wrong halfway.

But Zhou Yue coaxed and deceived all the way and took these people to the foot of Baishi Mountain.

Finally, Xie Yu and others who were waiting for the response appeared, and it was already too late for those servants to escape.

Zhou Yue brought another big gift to Baishi Village.

As for the servants and cooks, they were all under surveillance.

They can't even think of leaving before General Yu leaves Yingzhou.

General Yu, who had suppressed his anger at Xie's house, did not leave Ta County.

He took people to live in the county government office.

However, the small county government cannot accommodate more than 300 soldiers at the same time.

The county magistrate Wu Jingtong asked the government officials to requisition dozens of private houses as temporary residences for the battalion guards. Then he went to various restaurants to recruit cooks to cook in the county government offices!

After all this tossing, it wasn't until midnight in the evening that General Yu Xiao's men got to eat.

Holding the steaming bowl, General Yu felt that his anger was just like the heat, and he couldn't suppress it no matter what.

Next to him, Wu Jingtong looked embarrassed.

After hesitating for a long time, Wu Jingtong finally said: "General Yu, actually Xie Jin..."

"Huh?" General Yu snorted a word in his nose and shut up Wu Jingtong.

Seeing that Wu Jingtong remained silent, General Yu buried his head in eating.

After General Yu put down the bowl, Wu Jingtong finally summoned up the courage to say: "As for the suppression of bandits... I wonder if General Yu can still..."

Yu Bai said calmly: "The bandits still need to be suppressed! But after a long day of hard work today, we are exhausted. I am not in the mood to talk about this. Let's talk about it tomorrow!"

Wu Jingtong could only lead people away in despair.

As soon as he got home, Xie Jin brought someone to the door.

Wu Jingtong was filled with resentment and wanted his servants to drive Xie Jin away. But before thinking about it, he really got a lot of benefits from Xie Jin.

Being short-handed, Wu Jingtong finally met Xie Jin.

After all the wrangling, when Xie Jin left, the cloud on his face finally dissipated.

Early the next morning, Wu Jingtong brought people to see General Yu again. After exchanging pleasantries, he mentioned the matter of suppressing bandits.

"General Yu, Ta County has been plagued by bandits for a long time, especially Baishi Village, which is even more abominable! They have controlled the Salt and Iron Road, and have repeatedly destroyed government trade routes! The disaster will be great! If General Yu can get rid of Baishi Village This banditry is indeed a kind act of appeasement!"

General Yu Xiao laughed: "Oh? Is Baishi Village really so hateful? But why...the news I heard is different from what Mr. Wu said?"

"Huh?" Wu Jingtong was stunned for a moment, "I wonder what news General Yu heard?"

"I heard that the strongest bandit force near Ta County is Yunying Village! There are only one or two hundred people in Baishi Village, but there are five hundred people in Yunying Village! In terms of the degree of harm, Yunying Village has Even more so!”

"And Yunying Village is closer to Ta County. Even if we really want to eliminate banditry, we should start from Yunying Village first, right?"

"This..." Wu Jingtong hesitated for a moment, and finally said with a smile, "That being said, Yunyingzhai is geographically remote and is not located near a trade road. There are only two access roads there, and bandits occasionally cause trouble. Those who were robbed were just some refugees, so there is nothing to fear! Baishi Village is different..."

"Refugees are also citizens!" General Yu interrupted Wu Jingtong and said coldly, "In Master Wu's eyes, are these refugees not my people in Dayong? Do these refugees deserve to be robbed? "

"The official made a mistake..." Wu Jingtong quickly apologized.

"Master Wu has always asked me to find trouble in Baishi Village, but because of Xie Xiangshen?" General Yu sneered, "I heard that Xie Xiangshen was robbed by the strongmen of Baishi Village a few days ago. In order to retaliate, Xie Xiangshen once Threatening to destroy Baishi Village!"

"Master Wu, don't you want to lend me a hand to fill in the words for Mr. Xie?"

"Don't dare, don't dare..."

Wu Jingtong broke out in cold sweat.

He also didn't expect that General Yu would be so narrow-minded. Just because he suffered a little grievance at Xie's house yesterday, this guy didn't even give Yingzhou Zhizhou Caojian face.

He simply ignored Cao Jian's reminder and placed his hatred towards Baishi Village behind the Xie family!

The key is that if you and the Xie family are in trouble, the worst they can do is break up and just leave.

Why should Yunyingzhai deserve it?

If Cao Jian knew that his brother-in-law's village was implicated because of this mess with the Xie family, and when Cao Jian prepared some shoes for Xie Jin, would he give him a pair as a gift...

"Okay, pass on my military order. Each camp will be repaired for three days. We will set off for Yunying Village in three days! We will eliminate banditry for the people of Ta County!"

"yes!"

General Yu Xiao gave the military order, but Wu Jingtong didn't say a word.

After leaving, Wu Jingtong's face looked like he was mourning for his heir.



The news that General Yu was going to attack Yunying Village reached Baishi Village, and the entire village breathed a sigh of relief.

Even Bai Xiaonan's tone when talking to Xie Yu was a little more relaxed.

"When you said you had a way to resolve the crisis in the village, I thought you were bragging. Looking at it now, you...are really amazing!"

Bai Xiaonan was a little shy when he praised his man in front of several bosses.

But these days, several heads in the village are used to seeing Xie Yu and the big head occasionally showing intimacy in front of everyone.

So everyone no longer joked and made noises like before.

Xie Yu, on the other hand, still had a calm expression: "The crisis is not completely resolved yet. That Yubai just said to attack Yunying Village first, but did not say that after the Yunying Village is defeated, he will not attack us. It’s Baishi Village!”

"If everyone thinks they can sit back and relax, then when Yubai brings the people from the Three Thousand Battalion to the gate of our village, everyone can be slaughtered!"

When everyone heard this, they suddenly became nervous again.

Wang Yi was the person who was least good at and least willing to use his brain. He asked directly: "Then Mr. Xie said, what should we do now?"

"Is it really necessary to change the place? Our village has been in business for many years. I'm afraid it won't be that easy to change the place!"

Xie Yu shook his head: "Who said we need to change places? Baishi Village is easy to defend and difficult to attack. As long as you give me some time, I can build Baishi Village into an impregnable fortress! But now..."

"We don't have the conditions to defend! So if we want to survive this crisis, we still have the same sentence: turn passivity into initiative!"

"Isn't Yubai going to lead his troops to attack Yunying Village? Let's be Lei this time... ahem, be good people and help him defend Yunying Village!"

"What?"

The heads of the house were all confused.
