After fleeing famine, I have thousands of acres of fertile land

They didn't care about the fact that a few people followed them down the mountain. They were all bandits and there was no loyalty to them.

"Brother, we can't go down the mountain within a year. What are we going to eat?" Yang Fan was worried.

This is the one he cares about most, and he doesn't need to intervene in the other two.

The eldest boss had already prepared a plan in his mind, "I know there is a shortcut on Erniu Mountain, which leads to the next door. We can go there."

Yang Fan felt relieved. As long as it did not affect his financial resources, any arrangement would be fine.

The eldest boss took the third boss to the cave several times to find out the direction of each road and put food in the cave.

In the evening, I went to discuss the matter with the old village chief. The old village chief had lived a smooth life and had only met officials who were greedy for money. He felt the same way this time.

The third in command found another night and secretly met with Lao Fan, agreed on a time, and of course gave him a lot of money.

In fact, the quicker they take the money, the safer it is. If they don't take the money, you should be suspicious.

The boss found Yang Fan alone and asked him to take his men down the mountain early and go to the city to inquire about the follow-up situation.

The garrison determined the time and began to pack up the camp, while some people took their belongings and went back first.

The third in command had placed spies near the camp to monitor the situation inside the camp.

After entering the city, Yang Fan was not idle. He first went to Master Qian's house to make sure that his brothers in the mountain would not suffer in jail.

He was also alarmed by the return of someone from the garrison headquarters outside the city at night.

The next morning, the news spread to the mountain.

The people who were monitoring there also noticed that there was much less smoke from cooking in the morning.

The first and third in command heard the news and saw the sincerity of the guard.

They began to prepare for the show, and in order to make it more realistic, they even prepared chicken blood. Once they met Lord Li, they would be as miserable as possible.

Of course, the boss did not completely trust the people in the garrison, and secretly transferred the silver and money in the village under the cover of night.

In case of any unexpected changes, take the money and run away, change the place and continue living with a different identity.

But it is still a bit troublesome to choose which people to follow the people in the garrison.

Although Lao Fan promised that there would be no danger to his life, he would definitely suffer.

The chief called all the people in the village together, told them this, and promised to give fifty taels of silver to each of them who were willing.

If you are worried, you can give me the redemption money first.

People in the mountain village have no home to return to. Even if they have money, they will go there to enjoy themselves, but they will still be able to give something back to their families.

This time they could earn more than fifty taels of silver by taking the risk. If the county government really wanted to kill them, they could still escape together.

These people all know some martial arts skills, and as long as the government officials give them some slack, they can escape.

But most people are unwilling to take the risk. They become bandits, living in fear of their future and always live for the moment.

Fifty taels of silver sounded like a lot, but after they went out to listen to a few songs, it was gone.

The boss saw that his subordinates were silent and began to get anxious. He once again promised to rescue everyone. This was acting.

Some families with elderly parents and young children were still very tempted. Even if they lost their lives, the money would be enough for their children to marry, have children, and buy some land.

By the evening, more than twenty people had signed up. Some of them wanted to redeem the girl they loved, while others wanted to marry Fang Zhengzheng's wife.

After deciding on the candidates, they were given some silver and asked to arrange their family affairs in advance.

Two days later, the agreed time arrived.

Early in the morning, the bandits in the mountain stronghold came out to provoke.

Lord Fan from the garrison was the first to lead his men out to fight. The two sides fought back and forth for the entire morning, and the garrison inflicted heavy damage on the bandits.

There was a break at noon, and in the afternoon the third boss came out to provoke.

Lao Fan personally took to the battlefield and the two sides fought for dozens of rounds.

The soldiers on the garrison side were dazzled and praised in unison.

The government began to pass the news up and down, and there was a war report in the city every now and then. The people stopped doing business and packed up their things at home.

If the garrison was defeated, they would flee the city with their belongings. If the garrison won, they would not suffer any loss.

In the evening, news came from the city that Lord Fan was beaten by bandits, and the whole city was in panic.

When Yang Fan heard the news, he knew that the main event was about to begin.

Martial law was imposed in the city and all citizens were required to return home and were not allowed to go out.

Then news came that Lord Li personally went into battle and fought two bandit leaders.

Yang Fan stayed in the yard, holding some fruits in his hand, and complained to his men.

"These officials are really good at playing. In this way, Lord Li will definitely become famous in Wu'an City."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a commotion coming from the house next door.

Yang Fan became alert and asked the people around him to keep quiet. He pricked up his ears and listened for any noise. If he saw anything wrong, he would leave immediately.

There was a lot of noise next door for a while. It turned out that the woman in the family disliked her husband for not working, not caring about the children at home, and not knowing how to fix the oil bottle when it fell over.

Yang Fan was relieved and commented with interest, "You said that when you look for a wife, you should look for someone who is gentle and virtuous."

Everyone below responded and talked about what kind of person they were looking for.

It was getting dark on the mountain and torches were lit.

Lord Li and the big boss were fighting each other, and the big boss kept making harsh remarks.

"With your strength, none of the three of you can match me. I advise you to take your men and get out of here right away."

Lord Li didn't say much. He poked the boss with his spear and blood oozed from his chest.

The boss took a step back, holding his chest and crying out in pain.

Lao Fan was watching from the side and was amazed. He thought that his acting skills were so good that he could really go into acting.

"Third brother, come and give me a hand."

"Brother, I am here, come and die."

Lord Li sneered loudly, "You villains, come over here."

The two men were fighting each other. Lord Li, who had been fighting for a while, showed no signs of weakness and became more and more courageous as the fight went on.

The soldiers who didn't know the inside story clapped and cheered.

After fighting for dozens of rounds, the third in command was finally defeated.

"If you surrender quickly, you will suffer less." Lord Li looked at the two men with disdain.

The two were furious, and the third in command yelled at the top of his voice, "Brother, let's go together and let this guy know how powerful we brothers are."

"Third brother, come together."

The two sides started fighting again, and their moves were dazzling and as powerful as they could be.

"Sir, hit him on his left leg." Old Fan helped to give advice.

Lord Li glanced at Old Fan, and scared him so much that he immediately shut up.

At this time, the first and second in command seemed to have received some information and began to show signs of weakness, fighting and retreating at the same time.

Lord Li seemed to be energized and his movements became more fierce.

The people in the garrison watched the three men withdraw from the central circle, and Lao Fan and his men fought with the bandits below.
