Captain Ma brought back so many things, which naturally attracted the attention of Captain Wu.

"Captain, where did these things come from and what are they in?" asked Captain Wu.

Captain Ma raised his eyebrows happily and raised his chin towards the boxes: "Go and see for yourself."

Captain Wu did not refuse and strode forward to examine the items one by one. The more he looked, the more he could not help but be surprised: "Where did these things come from?"

Not to mention the food, the fine cloth and furs alone would be worth a lot of money.

Captain Ma did not want to expose Li Ziping's peculiarity, and just said that he was lucky to have picked him up.

Captain Wu did not say whether he believed it or not, but said happily: "With these things, we don't have to worry about those bandits not taking the bait."

Obviously, he and Captain Ma had the same idea.

Captain Ma nodded and said with a smile: "You are right, but we can't be careless. We still need to make it more realistic."

Thinking of the bandits' caution and suspicion, Captain Ma darkened his eyes.

"Captain, these bandits used to make a living by robbing the people delivering goods to the supply and marketing cooperatives and herdsmen. We can actually disguise ourselves as herdsmen passing by."

People who graze on the grasslands will migrate as the grass grows, and they live far away from towns in winter, so it is inconvenient for them to buy things.

Many herders would buy a lot of food at one time so they wouldn’t have to go to town frequently and save a lot of trouble.

"Okay, you take a team of people and pretend to be herdsmen, and come in from the outside tomorrow. I will take the rest of the people to ambush around you." Captain Ma said decisively.

Everything will be fine as long as those bandits come out of the swamp.

"Yes!" Captain Wu saluted Captain Ma and went to make preparations.

…

the next day.

The bandit sentry was taking a nap when he suddenly saw a column of smoke rising in the distance.

Why would anyone light a fire outside at a time like this?

To be on the safe side, he ran out carefully and went to the place where the smoke was coming from to check the situation.

If something goes wrong due to negligence, the boss will definitely skin him alive.

The man on guard crouched down and cautiously stuck his head out to check the situation.

There were a dozen big men not far away. They were sitting together eating, talking and laughing. There was a small fire in the middle, and the smoke just now came from there.

Looking not far away, there were three carts parked.

There were more than a dozen large boxes and more than a dozen large bags piled on top.

The sentry knew at a glance that the bag contained food, and as for the box, there must be good stuff in it as well.

Just when he was about to go back, he heard a man say loudly: "With the fur and cotton in the box, my wife can wear a new coat and won't have to suffer from the cold!"

The sentry's eyes lit up, and he turned around and quickly returned the same way.

After he left, Captain Wu snorted coldly: "It's all over, and you guys still won't take the bait!"

This is equivalent to delivering it to the other party's doorstep, and what is delivered is what the other party needs most. If those bandits are not tempted, they really don't deserve the name of bandits.

The sentry ran back panting, and without delay, he went to see his boss immediately.

The leader of this gang of bandits was a spirited old man. Seeing someone running in rashly, he immediately scolded, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

"Boss, I found a big fat sheep!" the sentry explained hurriedly.

"Fat sheep? Tell me about their specific situation." The old man said with a frown.

At this time, a fat sheep appeared on the grassland, which was very abnormal.

The sentry described what he had seen in detail. Seeing that the boss was still thinking, he added, "I saw it for real. The grain pushed the wheels down a bit. There must be at least 2,000 kilograms of grain."

If they could get these foods back, they could live peacefully this winter.

"Are you telling the truth?" the boss asked again.

"Really? I saw it with my own eyes." the sentry said anxiously.

If it were just cotton and clothes, the boss would still hesitate, after all, the cold can be overcome through other methods.

But having nothing to eat is fatal.

Thinking of this, the boss closed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Let the brothers gather together and tell them that a large cargo is coming!"

"Yes!" The sentry happily went out to pass on the message.

Although there were only a dozen men among the herdsmen, the bandit leader was cautious and feared an ambush, so he took everyone with him and only left a few people to guard the house.

…

Captain Wu sat on the ground with his legs crossed, and the others also pretended to sit down and rest, only chatting with each other from time to time.

Just then, a group of people suddenly jumped out from the bushes.

Captain Wu and his men originally wanted to run away, but before they could even push the car up, they were surrounded along with the car.

Captain Wu showed fear on his face and asked tremblingly, "Who are you?"

"Brother, what are you carrying in your car?" The bandit leader sat on the horseback, like a kind old man. He said gently, "It is said that we share half of what we have when we meet. Are you willing to share these things with us?"

Captain Wu and others changed their expressions. They thought this gentle old man was a good person, but the content of his words was frightening.

"Are you bandits?" Captain Wu stepped back in fear, but gestured calmly.

"Don't say such harsh words. What bandit or not? If you want to be my friend, just leave your things and go away."

"What if you don't want to?" asked Captain Wu.

"You don't want to?" The old man smiled even more kindly: "Then leave your things and people here."
