Jiang Xia had already made up his mind to attack the group of people in Nanling Mountain, so he did not act rashly after approaching Nanling Mountain. Instead, he asked his men to investigate the terrain of Nanling Mountain.

After the person who went to explore the terrain came back and told Jiang Xia about the general terrain of Nanling Mountain, Jiang Xia had already had a certain understanding of Nanling Mountain.

On the way here, Jiangxia learned about the situation of the group of people in Nanling Mountain and how they attacked Pingchuan County. Fortunately, Jiangxia was lucky. On the way, she met several county government officials who were preparing to escape to the capital.

On the day of attacking Pingchuan County, these yamen were responsible for the logistics of the soldiers guarding the city, so they were quite familiar with the battle process at that time.

According to those yamen, the day of attack on Pingchuan County was evening. At about midnight, a group of robbers with high martial arts skills first rushed into the backyard of the county yamen and killed the county magistrate. Then the attack began outside the city. Not long after the two sides had fought, a group of traitors with high martial arts skills appeared among the soldiers who were in charge of defending the city.

The two sides cooperated inside and outside, and Pingchuan County was defeated in less than three hours.

After listening to the descriptions of those yamen, Jiang Xia had a preliminary impression of the group of people in Nanling Mountain. First of all, what Jiang Xia could be sure of was that this group of people was definitely not ordinary bandits. At least, their leader was definitely not ordinary bandits.

This can be seen from the process of attacking Pingchuan County. First of all, they chose the time they were midnight. As we all know, midnight is twelve o'clock at night, and this time period happened to be the time when people were the most relaxed. Then, before they attacked the county government, they actually sent a mini-work in the city in advance.

First, they were ready to disguise themselves as soldiers guarding the city at any time, and second, there was also a group of experts who assassinated the county magistrate. Most people would never have imagined these two moves. The killing of the county magistrate was for the purpose of the sudden chaos. Pingchuan County had no leader and was in a mess. Disguise themselves as soldiers guarding the city in order to reduce the losses of the personnel who attacked the city.

This whole plan is very meticulous, and the results are obvious and effective. It is precisely because of understanding these that Jiang Xia will be more careful when acting.

Whether in ancient times or modern times, Jiang Xia has always understood one truth. There are many smart people, especially those who are smarter than him, who are like countless people. When fighting with these people, how to ensure that they are invincible. The only way is to be careful, be careful, and be careful. A truly smart person never thinks he is smart, that's the reason.

When attacking places like county towns, you usually choose to attack at night and when your opponent is relaxed. However, when attacking places like matrimony, most experienced people will choose to attack during the day. Because the terrain on the mountain is complicated, attacking at night can only be a loss, and there is no point in taking advantage.

Unless you know all the roads going up and down the mountain, this is a different matter.

According to Ling Tianfeng's estimate, Jiang Xia should have arrived near Nanling Mountain within one day. But in fact, it took Jiang Xia a full two and a half days to arrive.

Before approaching Nanling Mountain, Jiangxia and the others saw a village from afar. It was noon now, and it was time for ordinary people to eat. The village did not even smoke from cooking, and it seemed that it was already abandoned.

Jiang Xia and the others walked slowly towards the village, and suddenly they saw someone rushing out of the village. Running in front was a group of ragged farmers, and following behind were a group of robbers riding horses.

The robber drove the horses and followed the farmers, and did not urge the horses to move forward quickly. He just controlled the horses to jog, and killed the other ones, as if he was playing with a cat with a mouse.

Seeing this scene, before Jiang Xia gave the order, Zhang Meng couldn't sit still. He roared angrily: "Grandma's little thief, there is no king's law in his eyes?"

After saying that, Zhang Meng squeezed the horse's belly hard, and the horse immediately rushed out like an arrow. Seeing this scene, Jiang Xia couldn't help but shake his head and immediately ordered: "Roar over, leave a few survivors, and kill the rest without any hesitation!"

Jiang Xia ordered and the team rushed over.

The bandits who were still chasing the farmers who were playing with the farmer, were shocked when they saw this scene and turned their heads to retreat without thinking.

Zhang Meng, who rushed in front, shouted: "You Grandpa Zhang may not be allowed to leave, so you dare to leave?"

After saying that, Zhang Meng swung his right hand twice, and a big hammer immediately flew out and smashed a bandit off his horse. The bandit was naturally dead and alive when he was hit by Zhang Meng's hammer.

The other bandits simply stopped to see their companions' lives and death, and drove away directly. Qian Juesing, who was good at tracking, chased the dead bandits and looked back at Jiang Xia, meaning that they were asking whether to pursue or not.

Jiang Xia shook her head, then turned over and got off the horse and walked to the group of village households. Before Jiang Xia could get among them, a young man hugged each other with his hands and performed a standard Confucian scholar ceremony at Jiang Xia.

The man said, "The students and the fellow villagers around him are all from this Mazhuang. When they encounter bandits, they want to kill our lives. They have to meet all the generals to save them for justice. The students thank you here."

Jiang Xia saw that the man was thin and his clothes were torn. However, he looked calm and confident when he spoke, neither humble nor arrogant. He felt a little appreciative. He nodded and said, "Can you know where these bandits come from?"

The man said, "If you go back to the general, there is only one thief nest in the nearby mountains and forests, and that is the group of thieves on Nanling Mountain not far away."

After saying that, the man suddenly knelt on the ground and said to Jiang Xia: "Students see that the soldiers under the general are strong and strong, and all of them have heroic spirits. I think the general will definitely be a benevolent and righteous army. I hope that the general will pity us and other people who are harmed by the bandits and bandits, and they cannot return home, and they will have difficulty in living. Help us to eliminate such disasters. If the general is willing to do this kind of benevolent and righteous, the students will be willing to be the leader and the pioneer of wartime!"

When Jiang Xia heard this, he looked at the man in front of him, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. His eyes, which were as bright as stars, looked up and down at the man, and had not had time to speak.

Suddenly, Jiang Xia heard the dense sound of horse hooves and shouts of killing. When he looked up, he saw that the horse thieves who had escaped had been forced to kill back by a soldier.

Among the soldiers of the army, many people chased and shouted: "The people from the Youtun Guard in Yingzhou are here, and you will not be punished if you are harmed!"
