Before Zhaocheng was fully completed, it became a distribution center for the surrounding goods. There were cattle and sheep in the north, grain in the south, minerals in the west, and sea salt in the east.

The Yan State, which was in the middle of a war, contributed a lot to the construction of Zhaocheng. Tens of thousands of grains and equipment were loaded and shipped from here to Yandi.

The last time the envoy of King Zhou Nan touched a big nail in Zhaocheng, and when he returned, less than ten teeth were knocked out. The emperor was furious, but what could he do? He watched Ji Jie eat meat, but he didn't even have a mouthful of soup.

The wealth of Zhaocheng not only aroused the jealousy of King Zhou Nan, but also the surrounding bandits became active after a winter's silence.

Fortunately, Ji Jie had thought of this from the very beginning, as long as there was a convoy going to Zhaocheng, he would send someone to escort him, and with the addition of an outpost every [-] miles, most bandit organizations did not dare to invade.

But there is always something desperate, no, a group of merchants from Qin was ambushed on the road, more than a dozen carts of goods were robbed, and the owner of the goods escaped under the desperate cover of the guards, and came to Zhaocheng for help.

After briefly looking at the owner's injuries, Ji Jie asked, "What kind of bandits are they?"

The owner of the cargo was slightly injured, and replied: "There are hundreds of them, and the leaders are three brothers. They are very powerful. Each of them has a broad axe. One of my coachmen will be cut in half with one ax!"

Ji Jie frowned slightly. Ji Jiangang just went out to recruit new soldiers, and Zhao Ling also went to the iron mine at the junction of Zhou and Yan. It seems that the matter of suppressing the bandits has to be done by himself. itch.

"Don't worry, I'll take someone to the accident site right away!" Ji Jie patted the owner on the shoulder and said, "I will help you get back the stolen items!"

"Mr. Zhaowen is benevolent and righteous, I am most grateful!" The owner of the consignor was so excited, Ji Jie went out in person, could there be anything that couldn't be done?

After ordering two hundred elite cavalry, Ji Jie rushed to the accident site as quickly as possible. There were more than a dozen corpses scattered here and there, all of them were members of the convoy from the appearance of their clothes, except for a badly damaged carriage that was abandoned in the Here, the rest are all gone.

The terrain here is low in the middle and high on both sides, the bandits must have ambushed on both sides, and charged at a very fast speed when the convoy arrived, otherwise such a scene would not have occurred.

"My lord, most of these dead people were killed by an axe!" The captain of the military school reported.

"My lord, I found footprints and wheel marks on the way to the west!" Another lieutenant reported.

"Where do the footprints lead to?" Ji Jie asked.

"Five Yuan Ridge!"

Ji Jie gave the order: "Target Wuyuanling, let's go!"

An hour later, Ji Jie saw the bandits driving the carriage in front of them, just like what the cargo owner said, there were about a hundred of them, and there were all kinds of things in their hands, including sticks and hoes.

When the bandits heard the sound of horseshoes, they stopped quickly, occupied a high ground, and put up a simple defensive position. Standing in the front were three strong men, young but tall, Kong Wuli, one holding A large ax with a long handle.

The three are brothers. The eldest Xiong Ba is 23 years old, the second Xiong Kui is 21 years old, and the third Xiong Ben is 17 years old. The ticket team started the robber business.

Ji Jie ordered the team to stop and rode over one by one, and asked, "You guys robbed the merchants of Qin State, right?"

"That's right, we snatched it from you!" Xiong Ba shouted in a rough voice, "Who are you? Why do you stand up for them Qin people? Are you from Qin?"

In the land of the Great Zhou, the hatred for the Qin people is no less than that of the Rongdi people, and there are rumors that every time the Rongdi people harass the Dazhou, it is the Qin people behind the scenes, so the local robbers are proud of robbing the Qin people and the Rongdi people .

"Great Zhou Zhaowen Jun Ji Jie!" Ji Jie said loudly: "I am not standing up for the people of Qin, but these goods are going to be sold in my Zhao City, so I have the responsibility to ensure their safety!"

Hearing the words Zhao Wenjun Ji Jie, the robbers began to whisper.

The second son, Xiong Kui, stepped forward and said, "So it's Your Excellency Zhao Wenjun, be polite! I have no choice but to become robbers, but my three Xiong brothers have never done anything to harm the village. We only rob Qin people and Rong Di people!"

It can be seen that these three brothers are people with backbone, different from ordinary robbers, and it is precisely because of this that Ji Jie came here on horseback, otherwise he would have ordered his cavalry to rush over to deal with these untrained Robbers are as simple as chopping melons and vegetables.

"Brother, Mr. Zhao Wen is the person we admire the most, why don't we return the things we robbed to him!" The youngest Xiong Ben's thoughts were relatively simple.

Xiong Ba shook his head and said, "Third Brother, it's not that I'm stingy, but what do we eat after returning the food. Everyone has been hungry for several days, and finally got some oil and water!"

"But……"

"Stop it, I'll tell him!" Xiong Ba waved the ax in his hand and said, "I've heard about Zhao Wenjun's virtuous name for a long time, but I just snatched it after a lot of effort. You have to return the words, which is a bit unreasonable, I respect your character, as long as you can win the ax in my hand, I will respectfully offer the goods, otherwise..."

"Otherwise, these things are yours." Ji Jie helped him say the following words.

"Okay, refreshing!" Xiongba jumped down from the slope, the ax weighing several dozen catties was in his hands like nothing.

"Wait a minute!" Ji Jie stopped Xiongba who was about to strike.

"Why, Mr. Zhaowen regretted it?" A look of disdain appeared in Xiongba's eyes.

Just kidding, when did the young master regret it? He pointed at Xiong Kui and Xiong Ben with a wave of his hand and said, "You three go together!"

What?The three brothers looked at each other, since the day they became bandits, no one could make the three brothers shoot at the same time.

"What do you mean?" Xiongba asked.

Ji Jie smiled and said, "It's nothing interesting, it's just one-on-three. Are you scared? Do you dare or not? Give me a quick word!"

The three brothers became furious and surrounded Ji Jie.

Ji Jie unhurriedly jumped off the horse, held guns in both hands and made a gesture, waiting for the three brothers to attack.

The three brothers looked at each other, and the youngest, Xiong Ben, nodded and launched a tentative attack. The ax slashed at Ji Jie's head. Although he didn't use all his strength, the sound of the ax cutting through the air was so sharp.

Immediately afterwards, the second child, Xiong Kui, also moved, and swept a huge ax at Ji Jie's waist.

Ji Jie responded calmly, flying up and down with a steel gun, and made a set of "Chi You Gun" superbly. The three brothers were overwhelmed by his exquisite moves, and fell behind at the beginning.
