252 Ming Wanli leads an ambush

Ping An thought about it and discussed with his master and Uncle Ming. They decided to do something big. They were here to pick someone up, right? Then they would lead people to ambush there. The weapons of the ten yamen runners were also found. They also had bows and arrows and weapons. They would see who was coming to pick someone up and where they were coming from.

Sun Sicheng looked at the night sky. The moon was bright in the sky and it was already midnight. Well, there was no need to be afraid. The wall of the entire inn was high enough, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack. He could just stay here with a few people and let Wanli take all the yamen runners with him.

Liu Yachai was the leader of these people. After more than an hour, their discomforts had almost healed. After hearing what the eldest master said, everyone was willing. If it had been a little bit worse, they might never have been able to return home, these damn things.

This revenge must be avenged no matter what.

This time Ming Wanli refused to let Ping An go with him. Ming Qiyan said that he wanted to protect the eldest son, so Ping An agreed after thinking about it.

Erqiang, Lin Feng and others went with them. They were extremely excited at the thought of having real combat with real guns and swords.

Sun Sicheng and his men were guarding downstairs. Although the door was closed, many doctors were still very worried. Without someone to take charge, the situation could not be suppressed. Some even suggested returning to the city overnight.

This is not a good idea. These people have been drugged, and even with the moonlight at night, they cannot see the road clearly. Besides, once these people return home, they may never want to come out again. This is not a good thing and is contrary to the court's idea.

Sun Sicheng said, "Are you afraid of this? It is very likely that the people who kidnapped you are foreigners. They want to make our Great Zhou army camp without doctors and the wounded cannot get timely treatment. By kidnapping you, they can treat their people's injuries.

Have you ever thought about this: if our army cannot stop them in this war, even if you return home, can you still keep your home? Can your parents, wife and children be kept safe?

We are just going to the rear to help them treat their injuries. We are not in any danger ourselves. The government will give us money, and our family members don’t have to serve in the army. Why not do it?"

Everyone was silent.

Ping An knew that the reason why these people were silent was most likely because of military service. They could not argue with the others. If they did not go, their family members would have to go, and their family members would go directly to the battlefield. It would definitely be better for him to go to the rear and be a military doctor, which would be safe and could also make money.

Seeing that these people had calmed down, Sun Sicheng stopped paying attention to them.

Xie Xuewen knew many of them, so he went over to comfort and persuade them. In fact, he was glad that it was better to follow the eldest master, as there were many capable people around him and he didn't need to use any brains.

Ping An saw that this was not a big deal, so he asked Xie Xuewen to arrange for these people to lie down and rest on the spot. Those of him who had not gone out could stay by the door and take a nap with their eyes closed.

He then pulled his master back to the room on the second floor.

We don't know what tomorrow will be like. People can go without sleep for one night, but not for several days. He Jin and his men are traveling day and night on horseback. The matter is serious, and the prefect should not and dare not delay. However, the round trip will take at least three and a half days.

Personnel arrangements and so on, it is impossible for the government office not to discuss them all at once.

If Uncle Ming can't get anyone tonight, he will bring people and food over tomorrow. To be cautious, those people will have to pretend to light a fire and live in case the visitors notice something is wrong and dare not come over.

After Ping An said this to his master, Sun Sicheng had no choice but to agree.

He and Ping'an each brought ten men, thinking that was enough, and they also brought six skilled workers for the Yunzhou workshop. These people also came from the Medicine Valley, but their kung fu was very average and they were not trained to be guards.

He Jin and his two companions returned to Qingzhou Prefecture, while Wanli took ten people and the yamen runners to Quede Village. His own kung fu was average to that of Yuan Qing, so the only ones who had real fighting skills left were Ping An and the other seven people.

The inn can be said to be safe. There are so many people. Although their abilities are nothing special, they are too numerous. As long as I stay here, everything will be fine.

Ping An is a lucky star, maybe he can help Wanli if he goes there. Of course, it would be best if we can kill or catch these people tonight.

The master and his disciple did not rest after returning to their room. The two younger brothers of the Wang family were still living in Erqiang's room. In the woods, he simply bandaged the children and would have disinfected and reapplied medicine.

When Wang Xiaochen saw Ping'an and his master come in, he quickly got off the kang, knelt down and kowtowed.

Ping An pulled him up and said, "Let's go check on your brother. It's best to disinfect and apply medicine again. He's had a lot of skin rubbed and bled a lot. Is the fever gone now?"

Wang Xiaochen nodded: "Much better, still a little hot."

Sun Sicheng handed him the lamp and said, "Ping An and I will help him change the medicine. You hold the lamp."

A quarter of an hour later, Ping An packed up the changed patch and said, "You two should have a good rest. We will come down to look for food at daybreak."

What interested him was that the seven-year-old child endured the pain and didn't make a sound. When he looked at him, the child even smiled at him, but that smile was not much prettier than crying.

A very rare child.

He returned to his room safely and didn't notice when the backpack was delivered to his room. He was so tired that he fell into a deep sleep without saying a word to his master.

Sun Sicheng covered his stomach with a piece of cloth, feeling extremely scared. If he had not noticed that the road was blocked, and had not discovered that something was wrong, and had not rescued so many people, perhaps he and his men would have also encountered an accident.

It is more than ten miles to Quede Village, and I don’t know how long it will take to get to the official road. I probably won’t think too much and just stay in the village. The consequences are hard to say.

Ming Wanli and his men watched all night but didn't see anyone coming.

When it was bright, Ping An was seen driving a car with his men.

"Master Ping An, why are you here?"

"Master and I interrogated a man. He was the head of the first family and the village chief. I threatened his family members and he said that he would not come tonight.

Their village has robbed many lone people. This time it happened a few days ago. Someone came to him and asked him if he wanted to do a big business deal. If the deal was successful, he would give them 1,000 taels of silver, 100 taels per household, and the rest would be his.

The letter has been sent, and the person will come to pick him up tonight, but he doesn't know where he will come from.

The master discussed with me and asked me to bring some food to prevent the visitors from getting suspicious. We still had to light a fire for three meals a day during the day, and we were dispersed. People didn’t necessarily come until dark, maybe in the afternoon, or maybe in the middle of the night. "

Ming Wanli nodded: "You brought three more people with you, so there won't be many people left in the inn."

"It's okay. The master has organized the more than one hundred people from yesterday, and the inn's courtyard wall is enough."

"Master Ping An, I quietly explored everywhere at daybreak. If these people dare to take more than a hundred people, they may not take the mountain path. The mountain path is too slow and there is no way to go there.

But if they take the path in front of the village, they will have to take the official road tomorrow. Can they be so bold?

Let’s not talk about how they lead people away, there are two roads where people are likely to come, you can come with me later to see how to arrange it.”

Ming Wanli didn't say it explicitly, but Ping An knew in his heart that Uncle Ming wanted him to set up some small traps in places where it was easy for him to slip away beside the trail. The simplest ones would be fine, as long as they could trap people into an ambush point.
