    After resting, Zhao Chen felt energetic.

    After getting up, Qin Huaidao and the others also followed.

    "Mr. Zhao, what are you doing now?"

    "Well, send out scouts and spies to search for the movements of the people first."

    "good."

    "Send some more people to follow me to visit the nearby Han people."

    Qin Huaidao immediately arranged for 10,000 elite troops to be stationed near Kuizhou City, relying on each other with Kuizhou City, and Shangguan Huairen was in charge.

    Qi Shanxing stood at the top of the city, watching Zhao Chen lead the people away, and couldn't help but shake his head.

    "Why is the governor shaking his head?"

    "I laugh at this man. He doesn't overestimate his abilities. He has the bad habit of a scholar. He only knows daydreams but has no effect at all. What does he think this is? Is this playing house? The â² people are the â² people, they are a group of barbarians.  , he actually wants to reform these barbarians, I don¡¯t know if he is crazy or the barbarians are crazy.¡±

    The man next to him asked again: "Then Governor, should we take care of him?"

    "No matter what he wants to do, just don't hinder me from killing the beast. If you defeat the beast, you will definitely gain military merit. As for this bullshit prince-in-law, he will go back to where he came from."

    "But, he is the consort, if by any chance he dies here"

    Qi Shanxing pondered for a moment: "That's true. Just send some people to protect him secretly and don't let him die."

    "good."

    After Zhao Chen left Kuizhou City, he headed to a Han settlement in the north.

    After arriving here, I only found that the area that was originally a mountain forest had been cleared by the Han people. Basically, the trees were cut down to only wooden piles. The soil above the ground had been loosened and crops were planted.  .

    Those wooden houses are all built with two floors. The lower floor is hollow and enclosed, and there are some pigs and sheep animals, and the upper floor is occupied by people.

    At this moment, after Zhao Chen arrived, he saw this group of people.

    After some exchanges, Zhao Chen claimed that he was a businessman who had just arrived here and wanted to collect some mountain goods, so he started talking to them.

    ¡°Fellow fellow, I think it¡¯s not safe for you to live here? When I was in the city, I heard that there are many Han people here and they are not friendly to Han people.¡±

    A commoner said: "It's not safe, but there's nothing we can do about it. Last time someone came to our place and wanted to steal our cattle and sheep, but we just beat them away."

    Another commoner interjected: "The tigers are very bad. I heard that the tigers cannibalize people."

    Zhao Chen smiled and said, "Have you ever fought with a tiger?"

    "We fought. When the Hou people invaded before, the governor of Kuizhou came to support us. We fought them together and killed more than a dozen Hou people."

    A man took out the wild products stored in the house: "Come here, take a look. These are the wild products we usually hunt in the mountains."

    Zhao Chen checked it and asked again: "Then do you know where the tigers usually hang out?"

    "Well, when I was hunting before, there were more of them in the west."

    "Can you be more specific?"

    ¡°I¡¯ve met him before in that area of ??Sanmenlin.¡±

    After Zhao Chen noted it down, he inspected the mountain goods, paid the money, and went to the next Han settlement.

    Qin Huaidao was a little puzzled at the side: "Mr. Zhao, they settled here, why did they settle here, and they are all scattered."

    "Some people are not suitable for living in the city. They can live here and be at ease. If there are no people around, it will be very comfortable for them."

    On this day, Zhao Chen visited several settlements and asked some businessmen. After returning, he sorted out the information.

    Zhao Chen asked for a simple map from Qi Shanxing. Looking at it, which was almost extremely scrawled and only had some simple symbols of trees or cities, Zhao Chen frowned.

    "It's better for him to draw this kind of map himself."

    On the other side, in the mountains and forests.

    A man sat on the animal skin seat in front.

    "Wang, the Han man you asked us to observe today went to various Tang people after leaving Kuizhou City. He did nothing today."

    The leader, the Li Ren Wang, snorted: "That Han must be an important person, and the Tang Dynasty court actually sent reinforcements. This is really unexpected."

    "Going to report to King Miao for help?"

    "No, I can handle this matter myself. After I arrest this Han man first, and then send him to the Miao King, what do you think?"Will the king fall in love with me because of this?  "

    The people below burst into laughter.

    The man stood up: "Get ready. Next time he goes out of the city, we will ambush him and capture him."

    "good!"

    ¡­¡­

    Zhao Chen looked at the newly drawn map and pondered.

    Xue Rengui next to him was also looking at the map carefully. After Qin Huaidao looked at it again, he was a little confused: "Mr. Zhao, what are you looking at?"

    ¡°I¡¯m looking to see if there¡¯s any way to catch the ruthless man.¡±

    "Can you tell by looking at the map?"

    "There is a certain possibility."

    Zhao Chen¡¯s mind was thinking rapidly. He had visited the local Han people before. Although he had some intelligence, he still did not have accurate information. If he wanted to find out the movements of the Han people, he would have to launch a large-scale encirclement and suppression campaign like that of later generations.

    This is unrealistic. Zhao Chen only brought 10,000 troops. What's more, Zhao Chen would never do such stupid things.

    Shangguan Huairen was beside him, and he was also pondering.

    "It seems that there is only one last resort."

    Zhao Chen spoke.

    "any solution?"

    "Since the beasts won't come out, we can only lure them out. This is the only way."

    Qin Huaidao was a little curious: "Then how to lead it?"

    "It's very simple. When we first arrived, they ambushed us. I don't know if it was a coincidence or deliberate. This proves that the other party already knows our existence. As reinforcements for Kuizhou City, they must also be keeping an eye on us.  They are targeting us, if we reveal our flaws, will they take the bait?"

    Qin Huaidao opened his mouth slightly.

    "Starting from tomorrow, Shangguan, you arrange for the soldiers to dress up and follow me from a distance. I will serve as a bait to lure the beasts to show up. If the beasts show up, we must catch them this time!"

    Zhao Chen clenched his fist: "If you can't catch it this time, they may not be fooled next time. This is the only chance."

    Xue Rengui was a little worried: "Mr. Zhao, is it too dangerous?"

    "There is never anything that is not dangerous in a war. We are passive now. They are in the dark. We must lure them out, otherwise this battle cannot be fought."

    Xue Rengui said: "I will follow Mr. Zhao."

    Shangguan Huairen nodded: "In that case, I will make arrangements."

    Soon, everything was arranged, and Zhao Chen took Xue Rengui and followed a caravan out of the city.

    Like an ordinary caravan, this caravan was pulling goods and had dozens of people. The carriages behind were all covered with mats.

    Not long after Zhao Chen left the city, the Huren scouts in the mountains were staring at Zhao Chen.

    A sound similar to the call of a bird sounded deep in the mountain.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
