Chapter 2911 Arrest Four
Around the hour of You, Inspector Song came down the mountain with his soldiers with a gloomy face. Bai Shan and the others were waiting at the foot of the mountain.
Out of boredom, Manbao dug up some visible medicinal herbs around her. Some of them had not been included before, but were already in the encyclopedia and did not need her to include them, so she gave one to Koko.
They have click points. Although the encyclopedia may not study this thing if it is given to them, as long as someone clicks on it and views it after taking a photo and uploading it, she can occasionally get a little point.
Although it was very little, not even a drop in the bucket for Manbao now, it was still a waste of time. And the extra herbs could be taken home to dry and used for preparation.
After walking around Village Chief Sun and Village Chief Jia twice, Bai Shan became bored, so he helped Manbao dig some herbs. When he saw Inspector Song leading his men down the mountain, he clapped his hands and stood up.
When Captain Jia saw that Inspector Song and his men were actually coming down from the mountain road leading to Xiaoliu Village, he knew that Bai Shan had made arrangements in advance, and his face became even more gloomy.
Bai Shan called Inspector Song over and laid out two blueprints on the grass for him to see. "This is the layout of Dajing Village and Xiaojing Village. The places marked in red in this county are the homes of the bandits..."
"I haven't been to the two villages under Village Chief Sun's jurisdiction, so I can only sketch a rough sketch based on his description. It might not be very accurate, so I want to target Dajing Village and Xiaojing Village first. How do you plan to capture them?"
Inspector Song frowned as he looked at the two maps, finally settling on the one for Dajing Village and Xiaojing Village. "Sir, there are only 38 bandits in these two villages, but there are 61 households in total. If they get restless, our hundred-plus men will have no chance of arresting them."
There is also the possibility of a fight with the villagers, which would be a major accident. No matter which side is injured, Bai Shan will be held responsible.
That’s right, it’s Bai Shan, not Inspector Song.
Bai Shan naturally knew this. He turned around twice and said, "This is a rare opportunity. If Jia Dalang doesn't contact them for a long time, they will definitely guess that something happened to him. It will be difficult to catch them then."
"What if a fight breaks out..."
Bai Shan lowered his eyes and said, "Try not to hurt anyone. This county will support you."
Inspector Song looked at Bai Shan in surprise. Is the county magistrate planning to put himself in danger?
Inspector Song rolled his eyes and nodded in agreement.
Manbao, who was watching, asked curiously, "Are you planning to just rush in like this?"
Bai Shan glanced at her and said, "I'm not stupid."
He said to Inspector Song, "Everyone, put your heads together and use a variety of methods to capture the man as safely as possible."
Inspector Song: "...For example?"
Bai Shan pointed out two families on the edge of Xiaojing Village and said, "For example, these two families live a little far from the village. Send Feng Dashan to call the people out. Once they come out, tie them up and gag them. For example, this family has three brothers on the list. Send Feng Dashan to call all three out..."
"These three households are quite close together. I asked Village Chief Jia, and he said Xiaojing Village probably doesn't know that he went to the county town today. I asked his son to go and call all three of them out..."
Inspector Song & County Magistrate Dong: ...So treacherous.
This method can be used not only in Xiaojing Village, but also in Dajing Village.
Once all those who could be called out were captured, the rest would have to sneak in.
"As long as these fifteen households go smoothly, the remaining eighteen households will be easy. Once it gets dark, everyone in the village will be asleep. Then we can sneak in, let seven people into each household, arrest them with four people, and keep three people on guard to intimidate the others."
"In short, we must catch as many people as possible."
County Magistrate Dong asked, "Should we ambush them at the intersection?"
Bai Shan frowned as he looked at the blueprint and asked, "We don't have many people left. Which intersection do you think we should deploy people at?"
Inspector Song only had a hundred men under his command. Bai Shan and his men brought about thirty yamen runners and guards, and another thirty men were transferred from Inspector Luo before. It wasn't a lot.
Manbao raised his hand and said, "I can help guard the intersection. You guys have to be sent to the intersection if you get hurt anyway."
Bai Shan glanced at her and said, "I included you in the plan. Seven people were sent into each household, so there were still thirty-six people left. At least five people were needed to guard each intersection. But the village is different from the city. They can still cross the fields, so these places must be guarded as well, and people must be assigned to guard the captured people..."
There are a maximum of thirty people who can be used, which means six directions...
Bai Shan counted and found that there were barely enough people, so he asked a few people, "Where do you think is the best place for them to guard?"
County Magistrate Dong hurriedly said, "Sir, why don't you stay at the intersection with Lord Zhou? It's too dangerous to go in."
Bai Shan shook his head. "I'll go in with you. We're short on manpower, and we need to arrest this person quickly. We absolutely cannot afford to delay."
He looked at Inspector Song and said, "Each team must have seven people. You must arrange them well. Each team must have a leader."
Inspector Song could only respond with a "yes".
The group quietly moved towards Xiaojing Village. They did not dare to wander around outside and hid in the woods.
Bai Shan glanced at the peaceful and tranquil Xiaojing Village, where smoke curled up from cooking fires, and turned back to the crowd, saying, "After you capture the person, you must block his mouth and make a quick decision."
He called out the men that Inspector Song had arranged and said, "The sun hasn't set yet. Lure out whoever you can first. The rest of you will wait until nightfall and then seize the opportunity to move. Remember, if there's any major movement here, you must take action regardless of the situation. Once you've captured anyone, immediately retreat. We'll meet up here."
Bai Shan looked up at the selected team leaders and asked, "Did you remember?"
The captains lowered their voices and said, "Remember."
Bai Shan was very satisfied and asked them to act separately.
He first followed them to Xiaojing Village, and Feng Dashan walked out trembling under their gaze.
Bai Shan called him over, patted his shoulder gently, and said, "Do you know that I only called you here out of so many people?"
Feng Dashan shook his head.
Bai Shan said, "Because this county believes that you still have a conscience, we are willing to give you this opportunity to redeem yourself from your crimes. I hope you will not disappoint this county."
Feng Dashan swallowed nervously and asked, "Can I redeem myself from my crime and make amends for it?"
"Of course," Bai Shan said, "as long as you help us catch them, you will have made a great contribution. Although you won't be exempt from punishment, your punishment will definitely be lighter than the original sentence you deserved."
Feng Dashan's expression became firm, and he nodded seriously, "I understand. I will make amends for my crime and make meritorious contributions."
Bai Shan nodded with satisfaction and had him taken over.
Bai Shan then looked at Jia Lichang's son, Jia Erlang, who was standing beside him.
It's too late tonight, I'll update tomorrow, good night
