Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 16 A Rich Harvest

Some of the men in black came forward to speak.

The voices were so low that Lin Feng couldn't hear what they were saying.

After a while, the four Tartars began to turn over the things on the carriage with torches.

After they finished checking everything, they called their accomplices and brought a large box over.

In the light of the torch, Lin Feng saw the gold and silver in the box.

This thing is reflective and very easy to recognize.

The body was already there, so Lin Feng didn't wait any longer and waved his hand.

Cui Yijiao immediately shouted: "Do it!"

All the soldiers immediately drew their bows and arrows and shot at the crowd in the yard.

The crowd in the yard suddenly became chaotic, running around like headless flies.

Arrows whistled and several people fell to the ground after being shot.

Lin Feng's first arrow hit the short and strong Tartar.

He was thirty steps away from the Tartar, a distance at which he could hit the target with every shot, even with his eyes closed.

The Tartar holding the torch was shot and fell down. The other three Tartars, seeing that the situation was not good, immediately turned around and ran away.

Unfortunately, they could not outrun Lin Feng's arrows.

The second Tartar was also shot down after running a dozen steps.

When the group of men in black were attacked, they immediately fled in all directions without any fighting power.

Even though he held a long knife in his hand, it could only be used to scare people.

Lin Feng brought seven soldiers with him. After shooting two rounds of arrows, he shouted, climbed over the broken wall and started charging.

There was also a man in black hiding under the carriage, who was also slashed twice by the soldiers with a knife.

Before coming, Lin Feng had already ordered not to hold back to prevent the opponent from counterattacking.

During the pursuit, Lin Feng shot down the third Tartar, but the last one disappeared into the darkness and could not be found.

The battle ended quickly and the opponent had almost no resistance.

In this battle, a box of gold and silver was seized.

It weighs about 100 pounds.

There were four horse-drawn carriages, carrying a lot of ironware, salt, cloth and other supplies.

These are all materials that the imperial court has expressly prohibited from trading, and trading them with the Tartars is an even greater crime.

Three injured but not dead men in black were captured.

There were also three war horses left by the Tatars in the distance.

When Cui Yijiao went forward to chop off the heads of the Tartars, he was surprised to find that one of the Tartars was still alive.

He brought the man back, and Lin Feng also observed the Tartar's wound carefully in surprise.

With my archery skills, how could there be a living person among those shot by my arrow?

It turned out that this Tartar wore a piece of cowhide around his neck with a jade pendant hanging on it.

Lin Feng's feather arrow hit the cowhide belt.

Cowhide is tough, and the arrow will lose its power after penetrating the leather.

The Tartar was only seriously injured, with blood all over his neck.

"If they're alive, that would be even better. Take them all back for interrogation."

The soldiers tied up the captives and placed them on the cart together with the bodies they had found.

Then he led the horse back the way he came.

Among the twenty or thirty men in black, seven were shot or hacked to death, and three were captured.

Of the four Tartars, two died, one was seriously injured, and one escaped.

After this battle, no one was killed or injured in the garrison at the Douzi Beacon Tower.

They also obtained such a rich treasure of gold and silver.

The morale of the army was immediately boosted.

Originally, several new soldiers still had doubts about Lin Feng.

At this point, I was completely convinced and almost prostrated myself in admiration.

When daybreak came, the soldiers drove their carriages back to the camp under the beacon tower.

What surprised Lin Feng was that no one in the entire camp could read.

Why is the cultural literacy rate so fucking low?

Of course, in addition to Lin Feng himself who can recognize words, there is also Bai Jing.

Bai Jing is an extraordinary woman. It seems that there is nothing she can't do. Not only is she extremely smart, but she is also very considerate.

Bai Jing took Wang Qian with her and began to count the spoils.

Make a list and keep good records.

Wang Qianpo prepared meals for the others.

This time there was porridge and grilled meat strips.

Everyone enjoyed the meal very much.

Lin Feng stood in the yard, holding a bowl of porridge in his hand and drinking it slowly.

Seeing so many spoils, I finally felt relieved.

Li Xiong was the one who made the greatest contribution in this battle. According to Lin Feng's instructions, he secretly contacted Steward Lin.

The two of them worked together to obtain the time and place of Lin Tong's transaction with the Tatars.

After interrogation, it was found that among those men in black were guards from Lin Tong's family and soldiers from the Qingshui County yamen.

The leader of the Tartars had been shot dead by Lin Feng, but as Steward Lin had said, it was Gulijia.

The detailed items of the transaction were found in his arms.

Then check the quantity with Bai Jing to make sure it is correct.

Lin Feng worked until noon, holding several signed confessions in his hand with a sneer on his face.

This time, I have Lin Tong's handle firmly in my hands. Let's see if he still dares to glare at me.

Of course, Lin Feng did not want to report this achievement to the border army headquarters.

He knew very well that after he handed it over, all that would be left were just some scraps.

The bulk of the money will be exploited and retained by officers at all levels.

Of course, the heads of the three Tartars still have to be reported, after all, there is no use keeping them.

There were also seven men in black who were killed and handed over to the military as spies.

Everyone was very excited. With so many heads, it went without saying that it was another great achievement.

With Lin Jiazheng's style, he would naturally not let his brothers who participated in the war suffer losses.

After a short rest, Lin Feng took six soldiers and rode out of the camp.

Head straight to Lingdouzi Village.

Lin Tong hadn't slept last night, anxiously waiting for the outcome of the transaction.

Who knew that what he was waiting for was to be intercepted by someone.

The servants who escaped back could not clearly tell who the other party was. They only heard someone shouting to attack, and then they all fled.

Being able to find the way home in the dark is quite brave and careful.

Many servants had already run away and no one knew where they were.

Lin Tong pulled a few servants over and asked them carefully.

All I knew was the sound of bows and arrows flying past my ears, the shouts of killing, the screams of those who were shot, and the sound of knives cutting into flesh.

Lin Tong sat alone in the room, lost in thought.

Looking at the fierceness, could it be that Master Tie is robbing his fellow thieves?

But the servants did not hear the sound of horse hooves.

The Tartars have no legs because they have no horses, so it seems they are not Tartars.

Who could that be?

After all, Lin Tong is not an ordinary farmer as he is able to expand his family business.

Even when faced with a life-or-death situation, one can calmly think about the cause and the next steps.

But this matter is too serious. Trading contraband with the Tartars in private would risk the extermination of the entire family.

Qingshui County Magistrate Mu Honda also stayed up all night doing business with the Tartars, although many people were doing the same.

However, protective work must be done well, otherwise if he is blown out, no one can save him.

After sitting there until the middle of the night, he finally got his reward.

A yamen runner he sent to do the transaction came to his door in a panic.

After hearing this, Mu Bentian was stunned.

This is a capital crime. Once it is exposed, not only will he be doomed, but his family will probably be doomed as well.

He couldn't breathe and his face was pale.

After standing there for a long time, Mu Bentian gritted his teeth, turned around and went into the house to wake up his wife and children.

The family began to pack up their belongings.

If the truth is revealed, you have to run away.

Lin Tong also asked his housekeeper Lin to start packing up valuables at home, arranged two carriages, and prepared to take his family away.

He knew that there was no time to lose and it was better to leave early than late.

He brought his family, several personal maids and servants, a group of more than a dozen people.

Lin Tong walked around the carriage twice in his large yard.

"Butler, open the door, let's go!"

Butler Lin agreed and waved to the gatekeeper to open the gate of the courtyard.

The coachman shook the reins lightly, and three strong horses pulled the heavy carriage towards the gate.
