Chapter 395 (1/2)

But now the problem comes. The chief soldier is not a fool. Since someone reported that the c-camp was not stationed at Haishan pass, and the a-camp came to see it, once he went back and said that the c-camp was destroyed by Ximang people, ye Xiang's current efforts would be in vain.

So ye Xiang looked at Zhang Nan, and Zhang Nan was thinking about it.

Because what they are facing next is not only to prove that the c-camp is still alive, but also to prevent the general army from seeing them.

Suddenly Zhang Nan smiled and asked others, ”are there mountain bandits around here?”

Gen Sheng immediately jumped up and said, ”yes, there are many mountain bandits here. Are we going to suppress them?”

Zhang Nan said with a smile, ”yes, I'm going to suppress the bandits... You were trained before, and you don't know how powerful you are now. Now I'll take you out of the mountain to suppress the bandits. From now on, we'll suppress the bandits around Haishan pass. The Cao and I will clean up and restore Xiongguan to its original state, and then we'll leave.

In the next two months, we will fight bandits one by one. When we are tired, we will drill into the old forest to have a rest. ”

These words suddenly excited everyone. Many people's eyes were red and their whole body trembled.

In fact, the vast majority of these soldiers were sent to haishanguan to join the army because mountain bandits robbed their villages.

So now they are happy to hear that they are going to suppress the bandits.

The land around haishanguan is fertile and beautiful. When the Yin empire was the strongest, it was once called Yunzhou granary.

It is said that the grain produced here can supply the grain consumption of the whole Yunzhou for one year. Therefore, the Yin Empire built haishanguan here.

Because seamounts serve as a natural barrier to isolate Ximang, haishanguan was very rich before the world war five thousand years ago.

It is said that five thousand years ago, two immortals fought in this war. It is said that the sword Qi overflowed in the dark. Finally, the two immortals split four swords and split the whole seamount from north to south into four canyons.

Then one of the immortals escaped seriously, and the winning immortals built four passes on the seamount because he destroyed the natural barrier.

From north to south, they were ghost head pass, Xiong pass, Mo pass and GUI pass. Then the military headquarters of Yin empire began to deploy defense at Haishan pass.

Haishan pass was originally called Haishan County, which belongs to one of the ten counties in Yunzhou and was also the first of the ten counties in Yunzhou at that time.

Yunzhou now has only nine counties, but haishanguan has become a place for prisoners to be exiled.

When ye Xiang first arrived here, he appeared in a mountain village.

At present, the poor people's livelihood, the decline of Commerce and the rampant banditry in haishanguan have reached the point where the people can't make a living.

But in this way, there are still businessmen colluding with Ximang to smuggle horses and grain, and the four passes have become the main channel for businessmen at Haishan pass and Ximang people to smuggle.

In order to get through the smuggling channel, businessmen bribed the generals and soldiers guarding the customs. Over time, the soldiers at Haishan customs became corrupt and rotten.

Therefore, Ximang began to invade year after year, and the early businessmen who colluded with Ximang also retreated to the east of Yunzhou early and became rich.

The so-called rich businessmen that can be seen in Haishan pass are just some petty smugglers. They only occasionally sneak outside the pass to exchange some strange gadgets with the people of Ximang tribe and send them to Yunzhou for sale.

Now the bandits in Haishan pass actually come from other places. Just because Haishan pass is chaotic enough, they begin to occupy here. They occasionally go to the surrounding villages to rob women and food, just to replenish food and grass.

The main targets of these robbers are the counties near haishanguan in Yunzhou. Therefore, at the end of each year, the counties with weak defense in Yunzhou will be looted and looted by a large number of robbers.

So that those rich businessmen had to negotiate a price with the robbers, and then the rich businessmen offered it every year, which prevented the bandits from invading their homes and property.

Over time, these robbers were used to be more arrogant by rich businessmen, and the robbers with money recruited more troops to expand their strength.

Therefore, the armed forces of some mountain bandits once surpassed the troops stationed at haishanguan.

The reason why Haishan pass did not dare to suppress bandits was that more than a thousand years ago, a sect door named Xinghe sect appeared in Haishan, and then it was reported that there were disciples of Xinghe sect among the bandits.

Since there are immortal disciples among the mountain bandits, the garrison of Haishan pass dare not suppress the bandits. Over time, relying on Xinghe sect, the mountain bandits began to compete with the garrison of Haishan pass, and gradually formed a model of harmonious coexistence.

Because whenever Ximang invades, these mountain bandits will also send people to resist the Ximang army. Moreover, there are few mountain bandits, but their combat power is stronger than these garrisons.

After that, the military department of Yin Empire directly cut off the supply of the troops stationed at haishanguan, but sent a chief soldier every once in a while.

Therefore, every year, when the Ximang army harasses the border, it is basically the disabled and defeated generals of the four camps who fight together with the mountain bandits.

But ye Xiang didn't know this, and the soldiers he accepted didn't know this.

After all, ye Xiang has not yet touched that level, and if this banditry continues, Haishan pass will decay and fall sooner or later. Therefore, the current general army has not thought of moving these bandits.

But now the severe winter is coming, and the army of Ximang fighting the autumn wind will soon come. At this time, suppressing the bandits is tantamount to giving up haishanguan!

……

In haishanguan's general army house, Xia Hou, the Cao of jiaziying camp, was very frightened and told the general army of his discovery, which shocked the general army.

Now the chief soldier's name is Cao Yang. He provoked the wrong people in the Yunzhou military headquarters and was finally demoted here.

At the moment, Cao Yang frowned and held his long beard in his hand. ”That's wrong! Those mountain bandits at the top of the mountain have no one to report that there are Ximang troops coming. Are you mistaken? ”

Xia Hou said decisively, ”I swear there is absolutely no mistake. The hoof prints on the ground are only stepped out by Ximang war horses. I can see them clearly!”
