Ying Xuanze sneered again. What's the point of having such a cowardly person here? Is he here to cause trouble for himself?

He has the system in his hands, and he can use the points to build an absolutely loyal army for himself.

He looked at Xu Dali with disdain and continued, "You can live, but you have to tell me everything you know."

Xu Dali nodded repeatedly: "Of course! I'm willing to tell you anything!"

Only then did Ying Xuanze have someone help Xu Dali up, and then he asked his men to bring the map of Yingchuan.

"Tell me where your village is? How many people are there?"

"And what other forces are there in Yingchuan, how many troops do they have, and how strong are they? I want you to tell me one by one."

"If it's true, I might spare your life if I'm in a good mood."

Xu Dali nodded again: "Yes! I'll tell you! I promise to tell you everything I know!"

"The small village is here, not far from Gaoliu City. If we run quickly, we can get there in an hour."

"I brought 4,000 men with me this time, and there are still about 1,000 men in the village."

Xu Dali quickly pointed out three more places on the map, "These are Yunqing Village, Qingfeng Village, and Longwang Village."

"The strength of Yunqing Village and Qingfeng Village is similar, with 6,000 to 7,000 people. The Dragon King Village is the strongest! There are more than 9,000 people!"

Ying Xuanze narrowed his eyes slightly. He was still quite shocked when he heard Xu Dali's information.

That is to say, there are nearly 30,000 bandits in Yingchuan alone, and there are also bandits in many other places in Xiliang.

No wonder the bandit problem in Xiliang has never been dealt with. First, there are too many bandits, and second, they all occupy the mountains and act like kings, making them easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Fortunately, the opponent was just testing him this time, otherwise all the bandits in Yingchuan would be mobilized, and he would have to rely on strategy to win.

And it will never be as satisfying a victory as it is tonight. If we are not careful, there will be no recovery!

He needs more soldiers! He needs more equipment!

Right now, the best way to gain points is to suppress bandits and rely on the points rewarded by the system to quickly improve his combat effectiveness.

"Was this night attack your idea or was there someone behind it?" Ying Xuanze asked with a smart look.

Xu Dali gritted his teeth. What he thought about was that Zhao Hu's men said that the Marquis of Zhenxi did not bring any soldiers with him, and finally it was that bastard Li Kui who took the initiative to ask him to come and find out the truth.

So it seems that Zhao Hu and Li Kui, these two bastards, wanted him to die. The fact that Wu Meng agreed later showed that these people were not good people either.

These three people might be gloating over his misfortune, waiting to divide up Duotian Village after his death.

What a cruel heart!

The more Xu Dali thought about it, the angrier he became. He treated these three people as his brothers for life and death, but they treated him as a tool. Who could tolerate this?

So he made up his mind that since these three people wanted him dead, he would drag them to be buried with him!

Xu Dali gnashed his teeth and said, "My Lord! It was Zhao Hu, Li Kui and Wu Meng who wanted to harm you! They were the ones who asked me to come here to find out the truth!"

"Especially Wu Meng! He summoned us to Yunqing Village to discuss this matter. I'm afraid he is the mastermind!"

Xu Dali felt that he had not said enough, so he suddenly burst into tears and cried:

"My Lord! Actually, I was forced to become a bandit in the mountains!"

"I am just an ordinary citizen. It was Li Kui who took my family to the mountains and forced me to become a bandit!"

"I have worked hard all the way to get to where I am today, but our small Duotian Village is also the weakest among the four mountain villages."

"They three are using me as a tool. They are all beasts!"

Xu Dali wanted to cry but was stopped by Ying Xuanze. He had seen many hypocritical people like this before.

"Which of these three villages is closer to Gaoliu City?"

"Yunqing Village! It's right next to my Duotian Village! Then there's Longwang Village. Qingfeng Village is the farthest away! It also has the most complicated terrain!"

Ying Xuanze touched his chin. It seemed that Qingfeng Village would be the next target he wanted to eliminate.

Of course he had to wait for a while. His current military strength was not enough to completely wipe out Qingfeng Village. He would need at least another 5,000 elite soldiers and a strategist to be safe.

But he couldn't kill Xu Dali for now. He had to save this guy's life so that he could plan the bandit suppression later.

He then asked Xu Dali: "Since you are discussing how to kill me, have you thought about how to divide the money?"

Xu Dali was so frightened that he was trembling all over. He quickly shook his head: "I dare not! How dare I? I am just here to make trouble, to scare people for fun..."

His voice became smaller and smaller, and in the end he himself didn't believe this lame excuse.

Ying Xuanze touched his chin again. After thinking for a moment, he said to Xu Dali:

"Well, I'll give you some treasures, and you take them back to the village. Then you can contact the leader of Yunqing Village and tell him that you want to give him some treasures, but you want him to take the initiative to go to your village to get them."

Xu Dali exclaimed, "What? What does this Zhenxi Hou mean by that he wants to spare his life?"

"Don't be too happy. I want my people to follow you back to the village. These people need to change into bandit clothes."

Xu Dali didn't dare to complain and could only nod repeatedly.

Zhang Fei looked at Ying Xuanze in confusion. He asked in astonishment, "Brother, why don't you just kill this bandit!"

Ying Xuanze shook his head: "He is useful to us, let's keep him for now."

He asked Zhang Fei to take Xu Dali away, then selected three thousand elite soldiers, dressed them in bandits' clothes, and finally took out nearly two-thirds of the treasures in his mansion.

This time he led the expedition himself, with Zhang Fei as his deputy general. He led Xu Dali and three thousand elite soldiers who had been disguised to go to Duotianzhai first.

Zhang Fei led a thousand men and followed behind their team, always keeping a distance of five miles.

He left the remaining one thousand archers in Gaoliu City for defense. If any other minority forces invaded, as long as the city gates were locked, these one thousand archers would be enough to hold out until he led his troops back for support.

Xu Dali rode his horse in the front, and Ying Xuanze followed closely beside him.

The group moved slowly, and after about two hours, Xu Dali led Ying Xuanze to his Duotian Village.

The bandits guarding the village gate were delighted to see their leader coming back and went to greet him.

"The boss is finally back! Looks like he came back with a lot of stuff, haha!"

Xu Dali looked uncomfortable. He waved his hand and said, "Go and call the brothers out to bring all the gold, silver and jewelry back into the village."

The bandit was slightly stunned and asked, "Why?"

"I told you to go, so why are you talking so much nonsense? We moved all the way here, we're exhausted!"

The bandit said "oh" and immediately turned around to call other bandits in the stronghold.

The other bandits guarding the gate saw Ying Xuanze. They had never seen this man before, and what surprised them was that they didn't see the second in command and the fourth in command either.

Ying Xuanze approached Xu Dali and whispered in his ear: "No matter what I do later, you'd better not move."

"With the troops I brought, it will be easy to wipe out your village. If you want to survive, you must obey me!"

"Yes! Yes! Don't worry, Lord Marquis!" Xu Dali nodded repeatedly. He was already sweating profusely.
