Chapter 332: The Masked Thief

Most of the ore produced in the mining area of the General's Mansion is transported to Jiuyou to be sold.

Due to the huge quantity and quality, and the fact that it is General Xiang's goods, the other party naturally attaches great importance to it, and generally arranges the date of the auction in advance.

For many years, thieves along the way, as long as they saw the mark of the General's Mansion, did not dare to rob it.

The long-term unimpeded operation somewhat paralyzed the escort officers, although there were still strong men in charge, but the psychological carelessness made them suffer.

Because of the Ruyi stone gall, the miners in the central mining area have not increased, and during this time, they only cared about the inventory and the search for the Ruyi stone gall, and did not care too much about the output of the ore.

As a result, the number of ores transported is less than usual, and there are three strong men in charge of escorting, one of whom is the peak of the commander.

A convoy of more than 100 people, mighty, left Qilian Town, passed through Shijin Town, and headed for Jiuyou.

Unexpectedly, when the ore truck was about to pass through the town of Guò Shijin, it was ambushed by a group of masked robbers in a canyon surrounded by mountains on both sides.

The number of robbers is not large, only seventy or eighty, less than half of the difference between the escort officers of the General's Palace, and the cultivation is not high.

The escort officer, who was at the peak of the battle commander, didn't care at first, but just commanded his subordinates to take advantage of the number and strength to prepare to encircle and suppress the robbers.

More than 100 generals, under the leadership of the two commanders and junior powerhouses, the momentum was huge, and the strength of the robbers was not good, so they could barely cope for a while, and then they fought and retreated.

"Don't let them run away..."The peak powerhouse of the battle commander stood on top of the ore cart and commanded calmly: "A group of thieves, they actually saw the mark of the General's Mansion, and they dared to attack, and killed them all for me..."

Seeing the vulnerability of the robbers, he was very satisfied with the performance of his subordinates, although the battle formation had been absent for a long time, but the officials of the General's Mansion were incompetent, only by killing them all, could they show the prestige of the General's Mansion, and also ring the alarm bell for other robbers.

"Kill......"

The officials of the general's mansion are like tigers descending from the mountain, and the robbers are weak in their hearts, basically only have the ability to escape for their lives, and some even throw away their swords.

The one-sided battle made the officials unsatisfied, and the head said that if they wanted to leave no one, they would rush to chase and kill the past.

"Hurry up, catch up..."Looking at the subordinates who were gradually moving away, the peak powerhouse of the battle commander urged, and sat on the ore cart, squinting his eyes, waiting for the triumphant return of his subordinates.

Thundered......

There was an earth-shattering roar, followed by smoke and dust in the canyon in the distance, and there was a shout of killing.

"It's not good..."The peak powerhouse of the commander jumped up from the car at once, he knew that his subordinates had been ambushed by robbers.

It's a gang of robbers with brains, and it looks like they're going to have to take it personally.

However, he did not immediately chase after him, but waited quietly.

This peak powerhouse of the war commander used to be the deputy general of the General's Mansion, but he was very calm when he was suddenly changed.

According to past experience, the robbers lure away the officials for the purpose of ore, and if they leave, they will be fooled.

Sure enough, at this moment, another group of robbers from the mountains, still masked, about fifty or sixty people.

"It's a good time..."The deputy general saw that most of the robbers were masters, and the killing was paused.

A strong man at the peak of the battle commander, even in the face of hundreds of generals, is also at ease, not to mention that there are only a few dozen here.

However, before he could kill the killer, he felt a strong pressure coming towards him.

The pinnacle of the battle commander...

The visitor was not tall, with a short stature, and his entire face was tightly covered except for two eyes.

A sharp sword with cold light, wrapped in the battle spirit of the peak powerhouse of the battle commander, went straight to the face of the deputy general.

"Who's coming?" asked the lieutenant as if it were a matter of routine, raising his sword to greet him.

Swish......

The comer didn't answer, just blindly attacked, and it seemed that he had to distinguish the winner from the loser before he stopped.

"Fight is war, who is afraid of whom. "The lieutenant is strong, so naturally he will not be afraid.

However, the comer was very strange and did not make any direct contact with the lieutenant, but only entangled him.

The strength of the two sides seems to be between the best, but the deputy general always feels that the other party is higher than himself.

No matter how hard he fought, the other party never made a move according to common sense, but he repeatedly avoided attacks.

The rest of the robbers, having no interest in the fight between the two, hurried to the ore cart, turned it around, and pushed it away.

"Stop...", the lieutenant general saw that he was in a hurry, yelled, and was about to rush over.

Suddenly......

A cold light blocked the way, and the masked man with five short statures stabbed with his sword.

When the lieutenant makes a strong move, he turns to a guerrilla again, and as long as the lieutenant does not chase the robbers with the cart, the masked man will not use the killer.

"Who the hell is Your Excellency?"

The adjutant general became more and more frightened the more he fought, as if no matter what kind of killer he played, he had no way to hurt a single hair of the opponent.

What's even more uncomfortable is that until now, he hasn't seen what tricks the other party is using.

The lieutenant general is also experienced and well-informed, but he has never seen this style of play.

With the strength of both sides, it is impossible to kill each other, and even if the winner is decided, it will take a few hours later.

The masked man played like this, obviously not wanting to reveal his path, so as not to be hunted down by the General's Mansion in the future.

This kind of battle made the deputy general fight more and more, but he had nothing to do, so he had to watch as truckloads of high-quality ore were pushed away by a gang of robbers.

The lieutenant general is finally beginning to regret it now, if he leaves even one battle commander and a strong man, it will be more than enough to deal with this group of war generals and masters of the cart.

But he became a loner, and under the entanglement of the masked man, he had no time to be separated.

By the time the other officials returned, the ore cart had long since disappeared, and the masked man made a false move and left, leaving behind an angry lieutenant.

"Search for me..."

While chasing the robbers, the officials were led into the depths of the canyon and were attacked by large rocks on both sides.

Although the casualties were not too large, under the dust, the gang of robbers took the opportunity to escape, and when the dust cleared, they had already lost their target.

The deputy general felt that he was extremely guilty, and personally led his subordinates to search around, but the mountains were high and the roads were steep, and the forests were dense, and he tried his best to still find nothing.

Yichen's guess was answered at night.

In the summer night, he sent a message to the jade to tell him that the ore of the General's Mansion was stolen by the Volunteer Corps, and the commander-in-chief was himself.

took advantage of the paralyzing psychology of the official, transferred the tiger away from the mountain, and then personally entangled the opponent's strong commander in the summer night, so that his subordinates could calmly grab the ore.

Of the 200 men dispatched, 15 were killed and 23 were wounded, which was basically the same as the casualties of the officials.

The value of the ore is enough for all the normal expenses of the entire volunteer regiment for three years.

This was the first time since the establishment of the Volunteer Corps that it had fought against the officials, and it should be regarded as a complete victory.

Although Yichen hasn't made much progress here for the time being, he is still very happy to hear that the Volunteer Corps has won a great victory, and he has also dug up some wishful stone gall.

The central mine began to get busy, adding two hours of work every day, and after several days in a row, many miners could not bear it.

"Damn, what are the rules? Every day and night, Lao Tzu is gone..."

"Even if you make some money, you won't have to spend it when the time comes, and you really can't do this job......"

"Obviously there are not enough manpower, and I refuse to add people, so I want to exhaust Lao Tzu to death. ”

There are too many complaints, and it will inevitably reach the ears of the officials, and the matter will gradually get bigger.

"If you dare to be passive and slack off and talk about the regulations of the mining area in private, you are simply looking for death..."

Syllable......

The official's leather whip was slammed on the miners who were muttering behind their backs.

The last time the Ruyi stone gall was lost, the officials on duty, the lightest punishment was to deduct half a year's salary, and they were also secretly cursing in their hearts.

But the indignation of the officials only remained in their hearts, but they did not say it, and it was actually quite uncomfortable to hold it like this.

And the miners' discussions, without so many scruples, just said it, but they didn't expect to be used as a punching bag by the officials.

Although the miners have a certain degree of cultivation, and the central mining area generally requires more than three rank soldiers, the cultivation of the officials far exceeds them.

The leather whip was full of war and anger, and when it hit the miners, it was naturally fleshy and bloody.

"Fight..."

Killing people is not enough, and during this time, I worked for two more hours a day, I was tired and angry, and I had already held back the fire in my belly.

Everyone complained a few words together, which was nothing more than venting and venting, and they didn't really dare to go against the General's Mansion.

But the officials didn't care about it, and they were served with a leather whip as soon as they came up, and they were very heavy.

Rather than being killed, it is better for everyone to fight to the death and live and die to secure their destiny.

Crash......

Where there is oppression, there is resistance.

I don't know who took the lead in shouting, and all of a sudden, forty or fifty miners gathered around.

Someone rushed forward, snatched the leather whip from the hands of the officials, and whipped them on the officials in turn.

Although the eight officials had a high level of cultivation, they were suppressed by the momentum of the miners and fell into passivity for a while.

"......Uhh

In the mining area, officials have always whipped others with skins, and when have they ever tasted the taste of being smoked.

This heart-wrenching pain made them cry for their father and mother, and scream and scream.

But the situation didn't last long, the pain kept them awake, and after a brief period of passivity, the officials quickly reacted.

Once they came to their senses, the advantage of their strength was unmistakable.

Even the leather whip didn't need to be taken back, and he directly used his cultivation to kill the miners.

Boom......

Syllable......

In a face-to-face battle, after all, it is by strength that speaks, and the smarter ones attack strongly, and immediately gain the upper hand.

After days of hard work and lack of strength, the miners were still in a state of being beaten despite their large numbers.

In just a few moments, more than a dozen miners were beaten with bruised noses and swollen faces, and were scarred.

Puff......

One of the officials, in a fit of rage, drew his sword and stabbed the miner's body.

The miners tried their best to resist, but they didn't expect that the other party had lost their hearts and killed themselves.

This time, it greatly surprised the miners, and the original dispute turned into a fight, or even a one-sided massacre.

Under the grief and indignation, the miners couldn't care about their own low cultivation, so they risked their lives one by one and threw themselves at the officials.

"Kill...", a small leader among the officials, gritted his teeth and burst out a word.
