The Young and Vigorous Eighth Prince

A middle-aged scholar sitting at the first position on the left glanced at Tiehu and said coldly, "Master Tie, my eldest prince has agreed to recruit you and give you a position of a sixth-rank guerrilla general. This is not given for nothing. If you don't work hard, not to mention the position, you may even lose your life."

His voice was somewhat threatening, which immediately made Tiehu's face darken.

If he didn't want to be a bandit all the time, he wouldn't bother with the eldest prince, the third prince, and the fifth prince.

But these guys obviously don't care about their lives. It was like this outside Huaining County, and it is still like this now.

They only wanted to cause trouble for Jiang Fan, but they never thought about how good Jiang Fan was at leading troops in battle.

Although he had more than a thousand people, plus the more than a thousand people from Tianlang Village, a total of more than three thousand people.

It seems that they have three times more troops than Jiang Fan’s personal guards of about a thousand people, but the problem is that Jiang Fan is very powerful.

Three thousand people went to attack Huaining County, which seemed to give them the upper hand, but who knew how Jiang Fan would respond? If the situation like that outside Huaining County happened again, he might be completely finished!

He opened his mouth and wanted to discuss it with a few more people, but before he could say anything, suddenly, there were bursts of explosions outside.

When everyone in the conference room heard this voice, their faces suddenly changed slightly.

Just as they reacted, explosions rang out one after another. Finally, several people could no longer sit still and hurried out of the conference room.

What caught the eye were explosions like thunder all over the village, as well as thatched houses and wooden houses being set on fire.

Seeing this scene, Tiehu was dumbfounded, and the three guests also stood there in a daze, not knowing what was going on.

They stared in a daze as the entire village fell into chaos and screams, and it took them a long time to come to their senses. How could such a good village suddenly be blown beyond recognition with thunder everywhere?

Just then, a shout of killing came from the gate of the village, and then they saw countless white-robed soldiers appear there.

When the bandits in the mountain stronghold saw this scene, they were so frightened that their faces turned pale, and most of them lost the will to resist.

After all, these are the White Robe Army. The bandits who luckily survived the battle outside Huaining County know how powerful the White Robe Army is.

Even if they didn't know, they had heard from these people how powerful the White Robe Army was.

Now that the White Robe Army is almost descending from the sky, how can they not be afraid?

Even some ruthless bandits wanted to resist, but as soon as they rushed in front of the white-robed army, they were killed on the spot by the white-robed army. It was almost a one-sided massacre.

The three princes' followers were trembling with fear, and a strong sense of fear surged in their hearts. When they saw the white-robed soldiers, they knew that Jiang Fan was coming to kill them.

The three of them couldn't understand how Jiang Fan managed to break into the Wohu Village, which was famous for its natural fortresses.

How is this possible? Even if the imperial army came, they would be helpless against the Wohu Village.

But Jiang Fan actually attacked inexplicably, which was simply terrifying.

After coming to their senses, the three retainers thought of escaping, but facing the dangerous terrain of the mountain stronghold, they had no way to escape except the gate in front.

They could only watch the white-robed army charging towards them. As for Tiehu, he reacted and wanted to organize people to resist immediately.

But no matter how loudly he shouted, the bandits in the entire village were already scared out of their wits. No one dared to step forward to resist. Most of them were trembling with fear and all lay on the ground in surrender.

When Jiang Fan led the white-robed soldiers to rush over, Tiehu looked at Jiang Fan and the others stupidly. He had lost the strength to resist, and he fell to his knees with a thud.

"I surrender, don't kill me..." With his surrender, all the bandits in the Wohu Village formally surrendered. The three retainers were also frightened and fell to their knees.

Jiang Fan looked at the surrendered bandits, and then saw the three princes' followers in the crowd, with a hint of sarcasm on his face. He looked at Niu Zheng who was standing aside and said:

"Take the surrendered bandits down the mountain, chop off the three guys, send their heads back to the capital, and send them to my three good brothers as quickly as possible."

Following his voice, the three retainers were frightened and begged for mercy. But Jiang Fanli ignored them and turned around and left the Weihu Village.

He left with four hundred personal guards and headed for the next bandit camp, Tianlang Camp, while leaving the remaining two hundred personal guards here.

Not long after Jiang Fan left, Niu Zheng led two hundred personal guards and escorted the remaining one thousand or so bandit captives to the county town.

Some people stayed behind to count the harvest from the cottage.

At this time, Chu Xiaolan also led 900 Zhenyuan Army soldiers here. When she saw the white-robed soldiers holding torches and escorting the bandits in front of her, she looked at them in a daze, her eyes full of shock.

"What...what happened?" She came in front of Niu Zheng and asked in surprise.

Niu Zheng knew Chu Xiaolan and knew that she was the young lady's personal maid and that they often went in and out of the military camp together.

So, when he saw Chu Xiaolan leading the Zhenyuan Army cavalry coming over, he did not react at all.

"My dear Miss Xiaolan, my prince has just captured the Tiger Village. Now, we are taking them back to the county government office."

At this point, he pointed to the bandit leaders including Tiehu who were tied up with ropes in front of him and said, "See? The bandit leaders of Weihuzhai are all here!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Xiaolan stood there in a daze, not coming back to her senses for a long time.

The Tiger Stronghold was breached? How is this possible? Even the imperial army could not defeat the Tiger Stronghold, and it was breached just like that? You must be joking!

But the facts were before her eyes, and she couldn't help but believe it. She felt very dreamy, she came here to help, but she came here to help in vain, the Eighth Prince didn't need it at all.

It also caused their young lady to worry for nothing.

"How did you capture Wohu Village? Wohu Village is easy to defend but difficult to attack. How could it be so easy to capture it?" Chu Xiaolan asked hurriedly, still unwilling to give up.

Niu Zheng felt a little uncomfortable when he heard this. This little girl was doubting the ability of his own prince.

Thinking of this, he said proudly, "Miss Xiaolan, you should know that my prince cooks excrement! You may think that my prince has nothing to do after eating, so he cooks excrement for fun? Let me tell you, my prince extracts materials from excrement to make weapons that can release thunder."

"No matter how easy it is to defend the Tiger Village, it will be as fragile as paper after a few thunder weapons are used. Without the natural defenses, they are just a bunch of chickens and dogs. How can it be difficult to capture them?"

"If you don't believe me, Miss Xiaolan, you can go to Tianlang Mountain and have a look. My prince is attacking Tianlang Mountain now. If you hurry up, you may still be able to catch up!"

Niu Zheng could see that Chu Xiaolan brought the troops here to help, and he felt touched. It just so happened that he was a little worried that his own prince was short of troops.

Even if Chu Xiaolan came to the door, he could go over to help.

Hearing Niu Zheng's words, Chu Xiaolan hurriedly got up and mounted her horse, leading her Zhenyuan Army cavalry and rushing towards Tianlang Mountain.
