Chapter 558 Placement
This walkie-talkie only has a range of 20 kilometers, so I'm afraid they have already run far away.
Shen Yuan did not dare to delay. He had already figured out the entire terrain of the Daxin Mountains. According to his judgment, if his second uncle and his men escaped, they would most likely go to the east.
Because there is a big river at the bottom of the mountain in the east.
There are many fishing boats on the river. If we go directly north, we will soon leave Beichang Prefecture, and it will be easier to escape from there.
Shen Yuan quickly ran in that direction.
In order to catch up with their speed, Shen Yuan walked in a straight line all the way, using the octopus hook to get off the cliff when necessary, and then standing on a high place to search around with a telescope.
After running around for a while, I received a message from Jiang Shun:
"Brother Yuan, Brother Yuan, we found it. There are people in the camphor tree forest in the east. I'm still some distance away from there, but I can't see how many people there are."
Jiang Shun also saw it through a telescope.
He is reporting on the search progress at all times.
Shen Yuan was heading in this direction as well. Upon hearing the news about Jiang Shun, he immediately rushed over there.
"Keep an eye on them! Intercept them immediately after catching up with them! Take them alive!"
His figure is as fast as a swallow, shuttling through the jungle.
Wei Yuanxiong personally led the attack on the city. This was his chance to make merit, and he only hoped that he could atone for his sins.
The rain of arrows stopped and instead a rain of stones began. They directly lifted up large stones and smashed the door.
"Listen, traitors! Anyone who opens the city gate will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins and spared from death!"
Wei Yuanxiong shouted the same thing. In fact, these traitors would not necessarily be executed. After all, they were not the enemy. As for the captives, most of them were sent to do hard labor.
If they have a good attitude, they can be recruited into the army.
The people on the city wall were already in a panic, looking for Lord Mo everywhere but couldn't find him, and some of them couldn't help it.
"Let's run away, let's run away too, Lord Mo must have escaped."
"Yes, there is a general under us. We are doomed. We might as well escape."
......
These people were not regular soldiers, so naturally they did not understand military rules. They just thought that if they were caught, their entire family would be executed.
But there are people who understand.
"We surrender, we submit, they will definitely not kill us. We are the people of Daxia and also victims!"
This man raised his arm and rushed down first, running directly behind the door:
"We surrender! Please spare our lives, General Wei. We were captured by them without knowing it!"
Wei Yuanxiong outside heard it clearly through the crack in the door.
"As long as you are proven to be innocent, the court will certainly give you a lighter sentence!"
With his words, the people inside felt relieved.
The man who was pushing against the city gate finally withdrew his strength and collapsed to the ground.
Others also knelt down.
"Please spare our lives, General! Please spare our lives, General! We confess, we confess everything!"
As he was shouting, the city gate was opened with a creak.
Wei Yuanxiong broke in with three thousand soldiers.
Three thousand people quickly rushed in and drove these people aside and gathered them together.
"Keep it under guard first."
Wei Yuanxiong gave an order not to harm their lives.
He led a group of people inside, and became more and more frightened as he walked.
There were people lying everywhere. Although their eyes were open, they were obviously powerless, as if they had been poisoned by cartilage powder.
The huge crowd was very spectacular.
County Horse is awesome!
If they hadn't arranged everything in advance and tampered with the water source, they would definitely not be able to attack with just these people, only 3,000 men, and so many beasts.
"Team one, collect their weapons and clean up the battlefield. Team two, go to the mining area to collect the weapons. Team three, guard the area nearby and don't let anyone out! Team four, five, and six, go down the mountain to search and capture those who escaped."
Wei Yuanxiong immediately arranged the matters here and personally led the team to the mining area.
There should be a lot of innocent people over there.
Many people from the mining area have already fled, and some have stayed behind. At this moment, the diarrhea has recovered, but they feel weak all over and are staggering.
Some people were strong and brave enough to go to the place where the war was taking place to gather information.
Niu Yongnian is also guarding here.
At this time, the person who was trying to get the news came back:
"Here they come, there are so many soldiers, they should be sent by the government, they won, they are coming this way!"
The villagers in Mine No. 2 almost cried with joy.
They are saved!
Some people in Mine No. 1 also ran away, but the rest simply didn't have the strength to do so. After all, they ate a lot and were severely poisoned.
Upon hearing the news, everyone was heartbroken. Some smart ones immediately moved to Mine No. 2.
They can also be innocent villagers!
And the people who were making the weapons were crying their eyes out.
I was brought here because of my greed for money, and I never thought that I would be able to return alive.
When Wei Yuanxiong arrived, all he heard were various cries. However, those people seemed a little scared. They looked at the teams cautiously and no one dared to speak.
It was Niu Yongnian who came forward again.
Thinking of Zhou Feng's instructions, he immediately bowed down.
"I, Niu Yongnian, am here to wait for you."
Wei Yuanxiong didn't expect that the prince had also left people here. It would be easier to get things done with people around, so he immediately asked Niu Yongnian to step forward and respond.
"What's going on here?"
Although Niu Yongnian usually doesn't like to talk and looks quite dull, when he really encounters a big thing, he is quite calm and his answers are very fluent and clear:
"This is a mining area. There are two mines in total. The people in mine No. 1 are all rebels, and the people in mine No. 2 are captured men, most of whom are from nearby mountain villages."
"Currently, the people in Cave No. 1 are more seriously poisoned, while those in Cave No. 2 are less seriously poisoned, so some people took advantage of the chaos to escape down the mountain."
Niu Yongnian's answer allowed Wei Yuanxiong to understand the basic situation, and he immediately sent people to guard the No. 1 mine cave. The people in the No. 2 mine cave were also gathered on the large flat ground at the entrance of the cave.
"Don't worry, everyone. As long as you are innocent people, we will let you go home after we finish the investigation."
Wei Yuanxiong felt mixed emotions when he saw those skinny people.
He had heard before that there were cases of wild beasts eating people in the Daxin Mountains, and the situation was particularly serious. Many people had been eaten, and everyone was afraid to go out and stay indoors.
But I didn't expect the truth to be like this.
When the villagers heard that someone really came to rescue them, they immediately stopped crying and became overjoyed.
"Thank you, sir."
“We are truly saved!”
"Very good....."
"I didn't expect that we would really wait for this day. I thought we would die here."
......
Everyone was talking at once, and in the end they all cried and hugged each other, they were so excited.
Wei Yuanxiong ignored them and took his men to the mine. Seeing such a large mine and the ores that had not been taken away, he was amazed.
I don’t know who had the guts to privately mine such a large iron mine!
After leaving the mine, Niu Yongnian took them to the place where weapons were made and the warehouse.
He had never been to those places, but he knew their approximate locations.
