Chapter 281 The bandits in Luokung Mountain must have been blamed

In less than a month, there were five such cruel and inhuman cases, two cases in Qingping County, and three cases in Meicheng City.

The government also caught the suspect, who admitted that they came from the bandit den in Luokang Mountain.

All of a sudden, in the entire Qingping County and even Meicheng, everyone was talking about the bandits, and every household began to close before dark.

Those rich people were even more frightened, and jointly requested the government to send troops to encircle and suppress the bandits in Luokang Mountain.

However, when the bandits in Luokang Mountain heard the news, they completely cut off the suspension bridge before the officers and soldiers arrived, cutting off the connection with the outside world and preventing the officers and soldiers from entering Luokang Mountain.

Shout out to the bandits from across the air to ask them to surrender, but get no response.

The officers and soldiers wanted to re-build the suspension bridge, but they were attacked by bandits from Luokang Mountain. Before reaching the edge of the cliff, countless arrows and hidden weapons flew over, making it impossible for the officers and soldiers to approach the cliff, let alone build a bridge.

The soldiers raised in small places and small cities are different from the soldiers in the barracks who have strength. Most of them are timid in the face of ferocious bandits, and their actual combat experience is equal to zero.

The government had no choice but to report the situation to the court and ask the court to send someone over.

After reading the urgent memorial, the emperor immediately dispatched a lieutenant general from the barracks to take more than 100 elite soldiers. Because Gu Ming was from Qingping County, the lieutenant general asked General Ouyang to go with him.

After listening to what General Ouyang said, Yue Lingzhi analyzed: "It is very likely that someone deliberately committed the crime, and then blamed the bandits on Luokang Mountain."

"According to what we saw and heard when we entered the bandit's den, Feng Qingyang should not be able to do such a cruel thing. In fact, the bandits in Luokang Mountain are not bandits in the true sense. Most of them are the whole family inside, and every household They all opened up wasteland and farmed land and lived a self-sufficient life.”

"Originally there were people living in Luokang Mountain. Feng Qingyang and the others moved in later. Except for the occasional crimes, their daily life is no different from that of the villagers. It is more like a small village than a bandit den."

The three tigers and six tigers also confirmed that this is indeed the case.

General Ouyang said: "Actually, I have expected such a thing to happen a long time ago. Since they have set their sights on Luokang Mountain, they will not give up so easily. They will definitely try to get rid of those bandits."

"After killing the bandits with the help of the government, they will occupy Luokang Mountain."

"That's why I oppose you and mine gold privately."

"The magistrate of Meicheng is a member of the Chu family in Yuecheng. He wrote the urgent memorial. It must have mentioned the relationship between Xie Chen and the bandits of Luokang Mountain, and the relationship between Xie Chen and me."

"The emperor will take it so seriously, and immediately send people out from the barracks."

After saying this, Yue Lingzhi understood even more that the bandits in Luokang Mountain must have been framed by others.

"Who is Vice-General Wang?"

"The emperor's confidant."

"I understand."

The emperor wanted to take advantage of this incident to seize General Ouyang's handle and frustrate the general's mansion.

Yue Lingzhi and Ouyang Qing entered the palace again, this time she came to ask the Empress Dowager for help.

The empress dowager was a little surprised when she saw her, and teased her: "Aren't you eager to return to your heart? Why do you still have the time to find me, an old woman?"

Yue Lingzhi replied respectfully: "There is something I need to ask the Empress Dowager for help. The bandits in Luokang Mountain in Qingping County have committed murder and robbery. The Empress Dowager must have known about it."

This incident has spread throughout the capital, and everyone knows that the emperor will send troops to encircle and suppress it.
