Chapter 110: Exterminate the Bandits
Out of the cell, Xiao Ding took a few deep breaths of fresh air, and felt as if he had seen the light of day again.
Hu County Commander led Xiao Ding to a guest room in the county government's back house and asked him to stay here tonight. The houses in the county government's house are also dilapidated, not much different from the houses in the village.
Xiao Ding Xin said that it is unimaginable that the county magistrate of this dignified county actually lives in such a dilapidated place.
Hu Xian ordered the little servant to bring the tea, took a sip of the teacup, and said, "Brother Ding Xian, don't you really consider coming to Brother Yu to be an errand here?" ”
Xiao Ding shook his head, "I'm not interested in being an official. As the saying goes, no official is light. With great responsibility comes great responsibility. If being an official can't do things for the people, then what's the use of being an official? Rather than being scolded by the people, it is better not to be an official, or to be an ordinary person. ”
Hu Xianling nodded frequently after hearing this, and then said: "The last time I saw you and my sister-in-law Han Lu'er walking very closely, you are willing to stand up for her, don't you have any thoughts about her?" If you want, I can be a matchmaker for you. ”
Xiao Ding shook his head and said: "We are just ordinary friends, last time I only helped because I couldn't get used to Xue Beast's behavior, besides, I already have a family, and I won't fight other people's ideas anymore." ”
"No, no, no, I said virtuous brother, a manly man, it's normal to have three wives and four concubines, why do you bother with the wife room in your family?" Hu Xianling continued to persuade.
"I have made up my mind, and I will never take another woman." After Xiao Ding said this, there was a faint sadness in his eyes, and he once again remembered Qing'er in another world, the woman he had always loved deeply in his heart.
Hu Xianling saw that Xiao Ding's eyes were not quite right, and quickly changed the topic: "Brother Xian hasn't eaten at night, what do you want to eat, I'll let the kitchen prepare it?" ”
"Just eat anything." Xiao Ding retracted his mind and replied casually.
Hu County's order ordered the little servant to go down and prepare the meal.
The two chatted for a while, the meal was ready, and Hu Xianling accompanied Xiaoding to dinner. Then I went back to rest.
Xiao Ding didn't know if Hu County's order had let Zhao Hu and a few people out, and he was thinking about how to exterminate the bandits. So he didn't fall asleep until late at night.
Early the next morning, Xiao Ding saw Zhao Hu and others at the gate of the county office, and they went to the inn to stay overnight after they were released last night, and came to the county office to find Xiao Ding in the morning.
Xiao Ding led a few people back to Luoxia Village, and the Tian family was overjoyed when they saw them return safely. The workers who were working were also very happy to see them return.
Soon, the news reached the old mansion.
"I said old man, why did you say that fool and those bandits came back so quickly, why didn't the government kill them?" Zhou asked Xiang Tian Caishen with some doubts.
"I don't know about this, could it be that this county order is a confused official, and he can't distinguish black and white at all?" Tian Caishen guessed.
"I think it's possible, otherwise, it's obviously a crime of copying and beheading, but he has all been released, isn't this a foolish official?" Zhou said with certainty.
"I didn't expect this fool to be really lucky, when he met a foolish official, he didn't behead them all over the house, it was really cheap for their family." Tian Caishen also believed his speculation, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt right.
At this time, Tian Dabao's family didn't know that their father and mother were regretting that their family was not copied and beheaded. The whole family surrounded Xiao Ding, asking for warmth, especially Li, holding Xiao Ding's hand and constantly asking: "Did you suffer in prison?" Have you ever been bullied? ”
Xiao Ding had to tell him in detail what happened yesterday, but he didn't say that he had promised Hu Zhixian to help him exterminate the bandits, but only that Hu Xianling knew that he was wronged, so he let them all back.
After another two days, Xiao Ding and Zhao Laixi drove to the Mohs blacksmith shop to get back all the crossbow arrow parts that had been made.
After returning home, Xiao Ding installed the crossbow arrows one by one.
There are a total of 10 slightly larger beaded crossbows and 10 smaller ones. The small model of Xiaoding is intended to be used by several women and children in the family, leaving it for them to defend themselves.
The ten slightly larger ones were reserved for themselves and Fan San, and a few of them for self-defense.
Xiao Ding took two types of crossbow arrows to the open area to test the effect.
The effective range of the slightly larger model can reach 150 steps, and the effective range of the smaller model can also reach more than 20 zhang.
Each bolt comes with a box containing fifteen arrows. So as long as the crossbow box is filled in advance, it can be fired fifteen times in a row.
Ding taught the family how to use a crossbow, how to load arrows, how to lock the insurance, and other skills. Even Xiaozhu'er learned it quickly.
Xiao Ding gave each of his family members a crossbow and corresponding arrows, and told them to carry them carefully and lock the insurance to avoid misfire. He also focused on admonishing several children not to aim their crossbow arrows at their own people, so as not to hurt their own people. Only when danger occurs, can it be taken out and used.
Fan Sanpang saw the power of this crossbow arrow, and couldn't help but secretly praise Xiao Ding. He was originally a man in the rivers and lakes, and he was well-informed, but he had never seen such a delicately designed, powerful, convenient and easy-to-use secret weapon. He didn't expect that this little Ding, who was called a fool, would actually design a secret weapon.
In a blink of an eye, it was the day when Xiao Ding and Hu County Ling agreed to exterminate Feiyun Village. Xiao Ding took Fan Sanpang and Zhao Hu to the road to Luoxia County to greet the officers and soldiers sent by Hu County.
Hu Xianling sent more than 100 officers and soldiers this time, and the block was led by a lieutenant surnamed Yan.
For the terrain of Feiyun Village, Zhao Hu and they are very familiar with it. Xiao Ding had already asked him to draw a map. Therefore, after the two soldiers and horses turned, they quickly followed the map to the front of Feiyun Peak Mountain.
Feiyun Village is built on Feiyun Peak. The mountain road of Feiyunfeng is rugged, and there is only a small road in front of the mountain leading to the cottage, which is not suitable for large troops to advance. The cottage is condescending, easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Moreover, the mountain road is under the stone wall of Feiyun Peak, if the mountain thieves on the top of the mountain find that someone is coming to attack the mountain, they only need to stand on the stone wall and throw some rolling wood and stones down, and they can stop the people attacking the mountain.
Xiao Ding observed the terrain of Feiyun Peak for a while, and said in his heart that this stone forging would really choose a den. It seems that if you want to exterminate this den of thieves, it should not be feasible to break in, if you break in, it is estimated that the hundred or so people brought by Yan Duwei will all have to be buried here. No wonder Hu Xianling said that he had sent people to attack before, but he was defeated.
Shi Jianforging occupies this favorable terrain, and it is difficult to win if he wants to win!
You have to think of a perfect plan, otherwise you won't be able to complete this task.
"Captain Yan, do you have any good strategies for attacking the mountain?" Xiao Ding turned his head and asked Captain Yan.
Yan Duwei was a refined man, about thirty years old, with a short beard, a sword at his waist, and a large gun hanging immediately.
"It's a martial artist below, and the strategy to break the enemy still needs the guidance of Brother Xiaoding." Before Yan Duwei came, Hu Xianling had instructed him to attack the cottage this time, mainly with Xiao Ding, and let him cooperate with Xiao Ding.
Xiao Ding saw that Yan Duwei had no good plan, and was secretly slightly disappointed, it seems that he still has to rely on himself!
Suddenly, his eyes fell on Zhao Hu and the others, and he thought, it's better to do it like this.
