Great Tang princess

Chapter 461 The arrest plan
In the jungle, a group of soldiers in auspicious uniforms were advancing quickly, and they made very little movement.

Since these soldiers are relatively far away from each other, it is easy to see clearly when communicating with gestures, so there are several agile figures scurrying back and forth between them.

Although the navy is formed here, the army model is still copied from Qianniuwei, and one military dog ​​for each squad has become the standard configuration.

Now the dogs in the barracks are not brought from Qianniuwei, but native dogs, Shandong fine dogs, which are also the prototype of Xiaotian dogs.

Shandong fine dog is essentially a hunting dog, good at sports, and has high loyalty. Once trained well, it can also be a good helper for soldiers.

At present, military dogs are mostly used to deliver messages. After all, soldiers on the battlefield these days wear all kinds of armor, and there is no need for mine clearance, so dogs are not very useful.

These trained dogs can't easily bark, but keep running between the scattered teams, passing messages to each other.

If you look down on this matter from the air, you can see Geng Yunqiang walking in the middle of the scattered teams, and from time to time he will squat down and pet the dogs running from different directions, and then take out papers from the pockets tied to their bodies take a look.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Geng Yunqiang called back the investigation team outside.

The soldiers quickly assembled and returned, and immediately set up camp and cooked after finding a place.

Because Li Yuechen taught them how to use a smoke-free stove, their temporary camp here was not discovered by anyone.

While cooking in the cooking class, Geng Yunqiang was discussing the intelligence detected today with the company commander and several squad leaders.

Raising his hand to wipe the oil paint on his face, he was about to give an order to let the soldiers talk about their discoveries, when he suddenly heard two birdsongs, one long and one short, not far behind him.

Hearing this voice, all the soldiers became vigilant for an instant.

The cooking squad that was cooking immediately extinguished the flames, and the other soldiers also raised their crossbows, pulled out their axes, and ran towards the direction of the sound with lowered footsteps.

After a while, they came behind the soldiers in charge of guarding in the distance.

Geng Yunqiang made several gestures to ask about the situation.

The soldiers on the opposite side pointed to the front not far away. They moved forward a little distance, and saw a group of bandits holding various weapons leading a group of people forward.

The gangster yelled and cursed twice from time to time, or raised his leg and kicked him.

There are still some gangsters pulling the carriage with some difficulty and walking forward with the goods inside.

Geng Yunqiang recognized the carriage at a glance, it was the Lu family's carriage.In other words, these gangsters robbed the Lu family's goods, that is, the batch of canned food that was just shipped out two days ago!
Take a closer look, these gangsters are loosely positioned, and they don't look like they have been trained.

However, the weapons in their hands are extremely limited, not to mention the reflective steel weapons in the hands of several small leaders, and several of them are actually holding bows and crossbows.

You must know that this is not available to ordinary people, not to mention the high cost, it is also strictly prohibited!
A gangster with this kind of equipment is absolutely impossible to be ordinary!
Ren Hai, the company commander of the first company, turned his head and asked with gestures whether to fight or not.

Geng Yunqiang shook his head slightly, and then asked the first group to follow behind, find their gathering place first, and the rest followed behind.

……

So the soldiers of the first group followed immediately, and the rest followed quietly.

These soldiers had received professional training in detection and tracking, and they were not discovered by the gangsters, and they found their cottage after half an hour.

After receiving the news, Geng Yunqiang asked most of the soldiers to rest first, and then he led a squad of soldiers into the past slowly.

This cottage is extremely crudely made, and the outer walls are not high, which is a piece of cake for these soldiers who have received strict training.

Although it is said that there are patrolling people in the cottage, they are not the army after all, and if there is any movement, they will run over to watch the excitement.

For example, at this moment, when they saw the gang coming back with a few carriages, all the people in the house rushed to the front yard, wanting to see what goodies came back from the robbery.

Geng Yunqiang and the others took advantage of the situation and sneaked into the backyard, silently knocked down an unlucky guy who was walking slowly, and began to investigate cautiously.

……

The next morning, Li Yuechen carried out his morning exercises in the room as usual.

Morning yoga and routines are the habits she has persisted since she was a child. Except for something that can't be pushed away, she always thinks about it rain or shine.

When Xiao He entered her room, she saw Li Yuechen sitting on the mat in a monkey-like movement, breathing slowly.

She still hasn't invented underwear, and her chest has always been wrapped with gauze.

Her body was slightly wet with sweat, and her whole body was glowing with light water, but she didn't sweat a lot, and even her underwear was still dry, not completely soaked in sweat.

Perhaps because he heard the sound of the door opening, Li Yuechen's posture remained unchanged, his eyes were still closed, and he asked without turning his head: "What's the matter?"

"Your Highness, some soldiers have come to report that the entrenched bandits have been found, and they have also robbed Butler Tong and his goods..."

They all knew that Li Yuechen had nothing important to disturb when he was practicing, so the soldier told Xiao He the news and asked her to convey it. As for whether to interrupt the practice, that was the princess' business.

No one can change the fact that Xiao He is Li Yuechen's confidant, and telling her is not considered leaking military secrets.

"Oh?"

After hearing the report, Li Yuechen opened his eyes, "I'll go and ask myself."

After probably washing up, Li Yuechen put on clean clothes and came to the office.

At this time, the soldiers who were sent back to report the news were already waiting. When they saw Li Yuechen coming in, they quickly stood up and saluted.

"En!" Li Yuechen waved his hand to let him sit down, "Tell me what's going on."

"Return to Your Highness, there are about 50 people in this group of bandits, and they hold a small amount of weapons such as steel knives and crossbows..."

Listening to the soldier's report, Li Yuechen gradually frowned.

Steel knives, crossbows and other things are definitely not something ordinary bandits can own. Although the production of steel has increased a lot, it is only limited to the royal family and Qianniuwei. Civilian steel is still a precious metal, and it is definitely not affordable by ordinary people. of.

Among other things, when Li Yuechen first came to Qingdao, the nearby villages still used wooden hoes for farming. It was only after she came that she replaced the nearby fishing villages with iron hoes and axes.

Of course, these are all registered. If there is any loss, you will receive the news as soon as possible.

But now that a gang of thieves suddenly possessed this thing, the fact itself was very suspicious.

After thinking about it, Li Yuechen got up: "Prepare the horse, Bengong, let's go and have a look together!"

Wang Xiaojie on the side asked, "Your Highness, do you want to bring along a few other companies?"

Li Yuechen shook his head: "If Yilian can't even handle this matter, then go back to wash up and sleep as soon as possible, let alone a soldier brought out by this palace, I can't afford to lose that person!"

After finishing speaking, Wang Wuqiong was immediately asked to prepare the horse, and was going to go there to see what was going on.

……

The army is very efficient, and it will be ready in a short time.

Arranged for Wang Xiaojie to temporarily manage all matters in the camp, and then Li Yuechen rode to the place where the bandits' stronghold was located.

The destination is not too far from here. It takes about a day to get there by riding a horse. If you calculate it, it is about [-] kilometers.

Counting breaks and meals and the like, based on [-] kilometers, it is almost exactly in the middle of Qingdao and Weifang.

It's hard to say what this place will look like after more than a thousand years, but for now, this place is still a hilly area, not high, but lush and lush, like a scene of a virgin forest.

Not long after the sun set, Li Yuechen and the others also arrived at their destination.

Soon there were several bird calls in the nearby jungle, and the soldiers around him also called twice.

After a while, Geng Yunqiang's figure appeared, and he came to the horse and saluted: "Your Highness!"

"Well, what's the situation?" Li Yuechen turned over and jumped off the horse, and asked while handing the reins to the soldier next to him.

"Return to Your Highness, I can assure you that these people are definitely not pretending to be military soldiers. After observation by my subordinates, these people have loose discipline and no tacit understanding... They are just a group of ordinary bandits." Geng Yunqiang led her to the camp. Answered with a serious face.

"Where did the steel knife and crossbow come from?"

"Your Highness, I'm afraid we can only arrest him and ask him about this matter." Geng Yunqiang replied.

At this time, the two had already arrived at the camp. Hearing this sentence, Li Yuechen stopped in his tracks: "If you can get these weapons, there must be someone behind them. Can you grab your tongue and ask?"

Geng Yunqiang replied: "It's a bit troublesome. There will be no less than eight of these people on patrol. These brats are not trained enough now. If something happens..."

If Qianniuwei is here, Geng Yunqiang is sure, because many people in Qianniuwei are scouts and have rich experience in handling whistle.

However, the soldiers of the Frogman Troop now, firstly, they were ordinary government soldiers before they came here, and secondly, they have never participated in wars, so they are not very sure about this kind of patrol team of seven or eight people.

Li Yuechen can understand this point. After thinking about it, he suddenly grinned: "Speaking of which, I haven't had any activities for a long time..."

"No!" Geng Yunqiang immediately stopped him, "Even if it is His Highness, how can he quietly control seven or eight people in an instant? Besides, His Highness didn't bring the drum beating Weng Jinhammer this time..."

Li Yuechen raised his head with a smile: "Can't do without a hammer? Don't forget, I'm a woman!"

As she said that, she turned around and waved her hands: "Wuqiong, come with me to catch a few people tonight!"

"Yes!" Wang Wuqiong agreed.

Then he turned his head and looked at Geng Yunqiang: "You lead a class of people to follow behind the two of us, don't get too close, when the time comes..."

Li Yuechen whispered about his plan.
