301. Small wins

On the loess road between the village and the county seat, a counterinsurgency team of more than 200 people was walking on it, and its messy footsteps kicked up a large amount of dust, which looked like a yellow earthworm crawling from a distance.

The Huang family was destroyed, but in Renhua. There are still many Huang family members in the county who run shops and work in the county government, but not all of them are dead. After hearing that the descendants were dead, these partial branches began to think about the silver in the cellar and the fields, so they spent money to dredge the county order and let him take most of the mobile troops in the county seat.

This team was still old-fashioned patrol battalion soldiers, dragging greasy braids, holding backward rifles that had been eliminated by the regular troops, yawning and drooling from time to time, and being in a state of lethargy. Several officers on horseback even lit large cigarettes and smoked them beautifully, attracting envious glances from the soldiers.

The man riding a tall horse in the middle of the team was Battalion Commander Zhang, the highest officer of this counterinsurgency army. There are 4 teams under his battalion, 3 platoons under the team, and 3 sheds under the platoon, each shed has 14 people.

It stands to reason that there are a total of 504 soldiers in a battalion, but how can he not eat empty salaries? So after leaving some soldiers in the county seat, there were only more than 200 people.

Battalion Commander Zhang has dark skin and thin body, holding a large smoking gun made of silver in his hand, and he doesn't look like a bit of a soldier.

The expression on his face was not very pleasant: "Grass, the county order told us to rise up early in the morning to quell the rebellion, and there is no need for it." It's just a fight in the countryside, just call a few catchers to lead people, and you must have collected a lot of silver. Boss Huang, how much money did you spend to dredge the county order? ”

"Lord Zhang, I'm not worried that the clan will be damaged by the thieves. I was a little anxious for a while. Just catch the thief. The Huang family is willing to give 100 acres of paddy fields to honor the adults. A chubby fellow on a horse gave a gift with a sense of humor.

"Haha!" Battalion Commander Zhang laughed happily. accepted it directly without any excuse, "Boss Huang, don't worry, that thief named Zhong Erzhu can't escape!" I'll get caught and I'll be at your disposal. ”

After dragging their feet for most of the day, the sun reached the western sky, and the team came to the village and heard bad news: the thief Zhong Erzhu led dozens of bandits to hide in the woods.

Looking at the sky, Battalion Commander Zhang felt that he could still fight and arrest a few bandits, so he ordered: "Give me a careful search." Catch a bandit for a tael or two! ”

"Great!" Hearing that the silver was coming, the soldiers of the patrol battalion cheered up, and their eyes lit up, as if they had changed into a different person.

In their opinion, dozens of mud legs that have just put down their hoes, and they do not even have formal thermal weapons, must be very easy to grasp. One by one, they hurriedly rushed into the forest, worried that they would not even have a hair if they went late, and they didn't even care about the formation and dispersed.

Zhong Erzhu led the remaining seventy people to hide in the woods, and heard the noisy footsteps and voices getting closer and closer. If you don't feel nervous, that's fake. In the past, when they entered the county seat, they were cautious and bowed their heads. I never thought that there would be a day when I would face off against the official army.

"Ha, I saw them, hurry up and rush, catch one is a tael of silver."

"The head of the Zhong thief is mine, who dares to rob me!"

In order to concentrate his forces, but also to prevent the escape of the recruits recruited yesterday, Zhong Erzhu did not disperse the soldiers, so it was easy to find dozens of people gathered together.

More than a dozen soldiers of the patrol battalion with guns rushed out and opened fire with a bang. Bursts of white smoke drifted into the air, making a loud noise, but it didn't hit a few people.

Almost all of those bullets hit the trunk of the tree, and they were not lethal to the people behind them at all. The guns of this era fired bullets that were rarely able to penetrate twenty or thirty centimeters thick of trees.

Of course, there are also unlucky guys, who are not completely covered by the trunk of the tree, and fall to the ground and wail after being shot. Zhong Erzhu saw a recruit two meters away, holding his bleeding shoulder with his right hand and howling in pain.

Can't wait, if you don't take action, these people will run out! He thought so.

Seeing that the enemy had run more than ten meters away, Zhong Erzhu shouted loudly: "Duan Fei, and the squad leaders, cast spells!" ”

There is no way to put the enemy so close, and the farthest distance of the Rotten Technique can only reach a distance of thirteen or fourteen meters, and it is impossible to hit the enemy at all.

Silently, the faces of the seven or eight patrol battalion soldiers who rushed to the forefront quickly turned black, crawling with mold growing on the corpses, and they suddenly lost their eyesight. Then there was a bang and it hit the trunk.

"Ah, my eyes, how am I blind?"

"I can't see anymore!"

The soldiers of the patrol battalion later saw that the person in front of them had fallen and had to stop in order not to step on their comrades. When I heard the pain and looked at their faces, I was immediately startled. I saw that the faces of my comrades were as black as ink, covered with dense pus, and streams of yellow pus flowed out.

Before they could figure out what was going on, they suddenly itched, like there were a lot of small insects crawling. After picking off his clothes, he found that the skin on his body was as black and smelly as his colleagues.

"Ah, hex!" A soldier of the patrol battalion screamed like a pig.

Zhong Erzhu stopped Duan Fei and the others who wanted to pursue, and said, "Don't worry, let the panic fly again, and then take advantage of the situation to chase after and wipe out this army." ”

Although he didn't know how to let the panic fly again, he did whatever the Great Immortal commanded. It also turned out that Daisen's advice was very useful, like this ambush.

Although the fleeing soldiers of the patrol battalion were not pursued, there were still seven or eight half-dead enemies lying on the ground. These guys whose faces have been corrupted, their skin and flesh peeling off to reveal the bones of Bai Sensen, look extremely hideous, as if the evil spirits of hell have come to the world.

Zhong Erzhu picked up a big knife from the cold weapons of the soldiers of the patrol battalion scattered on the ground, hesitated for a moment, and then slashed at a soldier.

Poof, a stream of hot blood splashed onto his clothes, and a small number of blood beads floated onto his face, and a strong fishy smell wafted into the air.

Zhong Erzhu suppressed the discomfort in his heart, as if to divert his emotions, and said loudly: "Duan Fei, the six of you, each find an enemy and kill him, and help him get rid of him." ”

The sound of several swords piercing into the human body sounded, and the howls that had been incessant just now suddenly disappeared.

Battalion Commander Zhang listened sideways, and after the screaming stopped, he was puzzled, those guys under his command caught all the traitors so quickly?

Seeing the last wave of his men marching into the forest, he hurriedly stopped: "Okay, you don't need to go in, the bandits have been almost killed by the striker." ”

"Oh no, sir! The traitors know how to do witchcraft, and many soldiers have been tricked! A retreating tide rushed out of the woods, and their faces were as white as paper. (To be continued.) )
