Chapter 189: Fighting wits and courage

With a few torches, it is difficult to see how armed the other side is. However, the leader of the thieves is standing in a prominent position, calling out to Qiangfu.

"Hurry up and let our people go!"

"Let our people go!" The hundreds of people around shouted with the leader of the thieves, and the aggressive momentum frightened the neighbors of the Bao family into crying.

When she cried, Luo Wei and Bao Chu saw that Bao's mother and neighbors were also surrounded by thieves, and the situation was only very dangerous.

At this time, Qiang Fu shouted in a rather loud voice, "Heroes! Fellow villagers, let your people go, you will let us go! ”

The leader of the thieves thought to himself, how is this possible! Dozens of lives, although they were lost, were all related to their fathers and relatives. More than half of the 200 men came to take revenge when they heard that their relatives had been killed.

However, the young man on the other side is too difficult to deal with, and it seems that he is not there, but it is also necessary to outwit him, so as not to run into him and not be able to resist.

He was just about to coax that as long as they let their people go, everyone would leave, after all, no one wanted to smear them for too long. At this time, a young man shouted, "Give back my brother's life!" ”

I heard gossip again, "My son is a filial son, and he was killed by a thief!" ”

"My miserable father, he just wants my son to eat!"

……

The man shook his heart and said, "Don't come here! If you dare to come near, I will kill them!" ”

The villagers beside him immediately aimed their weapons and farm tools at the captive's head.

At this time, the captives were the only reliance, and no village or clan could afford to lose thirty or forty young men at once, and if they could save a few strong laborers, they would never want to take any chances.

Seeing the stalemate between the two sides, he suddenly heard a "Whoa!" Roar.

The crowd followed the sound, and saw a torch suddenly fly out of the hands of the armed farmer, and the details of the situation there were suddenly unclear.

The leader of the thieves suddenly narrowed his pupils and shouted, "It's that man!" He is the one who killed your loved ones! ”

"Ahh Die."

A group of people heard the leader's shouts and threw themselves towards the fighting crowd.

But the more this happens, the more chaotic the situation becomes. Most of the people present were suffering from severe night blindness due to malnutrition, and those who had leaned on it at first knew how to hit the person who seemed to be moving the fastest.

Those who gathered around the back kept hearing the terrifying sounds and terrifying screams of being broken by sharp weapons, and the more panicked and frightened they became.

Led by a boy in his teens and a half, the people on the periphery picked up weapons and farm tools to hit the people in front. The people in front also turned around and fought with their own people in order to survive.

The leader of the thieves saw that the situation was not good, and quickly asked a few people with torches to lean over. He didn't believe it, couldn't dozens or hundreds of people beat a person who couldn't eat enough?

The sound of several crossbow arrows breaking through the air sounded, and the two people around the leader of the thieves couldn't scream in pain, and they fell to the ground and spasmed a little bit while holding the part of the arrow.

"Huh? Come and protect me! ”

The leader knew that there were other assailants in the shadows, and that they were armed with bows and crossbows, and there was no shelter except for a meat shield.

Suddenly, on a whim, he took two steps, picked up a child he had captured earlier, and yelled, "Stop! Stop! ”

"If you dare to resist again, this kid and the other captives will all die!"

Luo Wei sighed, they are really few people, and it is difficult to divide people to save people when they attack. I had no choice but to stop for the time being and try to negotiate.

Bao De saw that the kidnapped child was from the next village.

His family is quite capable, and this summer they managed to take the lead, pooling money with several nearby villages in exchange for a lot of food and bran. It is estimated that today, like his family, he went to Zheng Guoqu to buy grain, so that the thieves took advantage of the loophole.

Bao Chu, who was quite helpless, had to jump out of the chaotic crowd and stop for the time being. As soon as he stopped, the armed thugs who couldn't distinguish between friend and foe just now and were beating each other gradually stopped.

After a closer look, it was found that more than a dozen people had died, and more than a dozen were injured and could not stand up. There are even people who consume too much, so they faint directly with low blood sugar and lie down with the villagers who cut down by themselves.

Luo Wei took advantage of the fact that the other party didn't notice that there were very few people in their raid, and said first: "I am Luo Wei of the Four Seas Merchant Gang Branch of Qi County!" I'll see the results of this matter, but I'll see the results of this matter. If you go too far, you won't want to buy food. ”

"Huh?" "It's them!" "What can I do?"

The loud Qiang man said, "Let me tell you, the New Western Liang Army is also the Western Liang Army." If you offend them, don't say buy food, thank God if you don't rob you clean. ”

When his voice went down, the thief's side was even more afraid, and no one dared to act rashly.

In fact, regardless of whether they know the reputation of the Xinxi Liangjun or not, but in the past few months, Dong Junnu and Tong Junhou on Xiayang's side have been selling grain, and no one knows.

Some people in the Four Seas Merchant Gang have also heard that although they are introducing business, they have the opportunity to cross the Hedong merchants and directly contact the Tuntian households. That's someone you can't offend.

After hearing this, the leader of the thieves hurriedly apologized, "I'm really confused, I actually offended the nobles over there, and I deserve death." ”

"But we really didn't eat, so the nobles saw the ugly things. Dare to ask if you can give us a few stones of grain, there is the grain promised by the Four Seas Merchant Gang, we will release them directly! ”

Bao Chu took a sip on the side, this thief leader is really not good at martial arts and morality, but this ability to sell and beg is really difficult.

Luo Wei answered, the Four Seas Merchant Gang has seen a lot of knowledge and a system, and will not follow the words of the thief and lose the temperament that the Four Seas officials should have.

He said calmly, "If you really can't hold on, you could have joined the team to recover the annexed state, which is more than 100 catties of corn per month." In the future, it will be possible to develop a large area of land in the north. ”

"However, if you do such a thing, of course you can't be the same as other Qianshou! Then you have to go to Hedong to dig carbon stones, or farm land for the Huns, and there are 100 catties a month. Don't hurry up and take refuge! ”

Luo Wei's words were both encompassing and powerful, and he didn't follow the thief's words at all, and directly threw them out of the outside world to shock their ugliness.

As soon as he finished speaking, the thieves began to whisper, and the more they talked, the louder they became. Many of them are fed up with this depravity and want to start a new life.

But the leader of the thieves was quite treacherous, and he said, "Don't make any noise! Since we have already done this, we will huddle together and not let others take advantage of it. ”

Those who have done their best, exerted their strength, or eaten to their mouths are not a hundred, but dozens, and they all echo the words, "We need food, not uprooting." ”

Luo Wei knew that the other party had some diehards, and even if he surrendered, he would not be honest.

It stands to reason that this place is less than thirty miles away from Zheng Guoqu's side, and the officer who went to ask for help should lead the soldiers and horses over. It seems that it is better to delay the time.
