Chapter 340: Clearing the Anti-Thieves

"Lift the hammer." Huang Kezhang commanded directly.

Following Huang Kezhang's orders, his subordinates quickly pushed a cart up. On the top of the car was a log that was as thick as two people hugging each other, and the front end had been sharpened very sharply.

"Bang the door." Huang Kezhang did not hesitate at all, and said directly.

With Huang Kezhang's words, seven or eight people pulled the car back for a short distance, and then pushed the car violently and rushed to the door in front of them, hitting it hard.

After a bang, the wooden door shook for a while, and it went straight into the inside, and even made a clicking sound, obviously some of the planks had been broken.

Inside the courtyard, everyone's faces were ugly.

A man in his forties stood behind the crowd, carrying a knife with a black face, looking very anxious.

A man ran to his side and asked directly, "Hall Master, what now?" They hit the door and will soon be in the door. ”

After hearing this, the hall master gritted his teeth and said with some anger: "Why did these people come so quickly? ”

"The news that has just come here, it is said that it happened last night, but the news has been blocked. Now that people are dispatched, the news is out. The subordinate said in an eager tone.

"I can't stay here!" The hall master said angrily, "Block the door, and then let's escape through the back door." If you can't get through the back door, you can climb over the wall from both sides, and you can't wait for death here! ”

It is basically impossible to stick to this courtyard. As time goes by, there will be more and more people coming from the Ming army, and this courtyard will not be able to hold on at all, and all the dozens of people will die here.

After hearing this, his subordinates quickly nodded and said, "I'll go right away." ”

At the same time, at the back gate of the yard.

A young general quietly touched up with a dozen people.

The equipment of these dozen people is different from the Ming army in front, all black leather armor, with long knives in their hands, daggers tied to their legs, and no other protection except for an iron piece tied to their foreheads. He had a steel bolt at his waist and two short guns pinned to him.

The general led by him was in his twenties, and he glanced at the people behind him and said directly: "There is already a commotion ahead." Have the houses on the left and right been emptied? ”

"Back to the hundred households, all of them have been emptied and arranged for our people." The subordinates hurriedly said.

Baihu nodded and said, "Shoot the arrow, and the action begins." ”

After saying this, one of the people next to Baihu took out a ringing arrow, and then lit the fuse behind the ringing arrow.

The sound of burning soon ignited the arrows above.

"Whew!"

A sharp whistling sounded, and the arrows rose into the air, followed by a snapping sound, and instantly split in the air.

The dozen or so people took a step back, ran to the wall, kicked the wall violently, grabbed the wall with both hands, and slammed the wall with both feet, jumping directly onto the wall.

Seeing the sticks sticking out of it, these people did not panic, and shot out with their crossbows in their hands.

The crossbow arrow was very accurate, and it shot directly at the throat of the person below, and the person fell directly.

The man on the wall jumped straight down, raised his hand and picked up the crossbow arrow, and shot it around. The same people quickly fell on the walls on both sides of the surrounding area.

They alternated cover with each other, and advanced quickly with their crossbow arrows, and when they saw a person, they fired an arrow at a rapid pace. The person behind him was carrying a knife, and when he saw that he was alive, he would make up for it, and he acted very quickly.

The group quickly moved closer to the middle, not only fast, but also without the slightest mistake, obviously these people were professionally trained.

The hall master in front was leading his men to retreat to the back door in an orderly manner, when he suddenly saw a person running over in a panic.

"What are you running?" The hall master went up and kicked the man, and said angrily, "What kind of system are you flustered into? The most important thing at this time is not to panic. ”

The man hurriedly said, "Hall Master, someone has killed you from behind!" There are also people on the left and right sides who have killed them! ”

"They're really ruthless!" The hall master gritted his teeth and said, "Now that we have no way out, let's go out of the back door together!" Only by killing can there be a way to live, otherwise everyone will be dead! ”

The hall master couldn't figure out how he was discovered here?

Although these people are planning to rebel, they have not taken any action, and they are nothing more than collecting some food in Jining, and they have not done anything at all, so why were they found here?

Someone in the palace assassinated the emperor, and the hall master just knew about it. But this matter has nothing to do with him, even if someone does it, he doesn't know about it.

However, the hall master was not sure that this was not done by anyone else in the sect. What if someone does it and doesn't know about it?

Besides, I have a lot of knives and guns here, and even armor, so it's impossible to put people in.

If they were really allowed to search, they wouldn't be able to run away at all, and now they could only take one step at a time, kill them from here first, and seek a way to live.

"Let's go!" After saying this. The hall master led the people to take the lead and killed them backwards.

The group quickly rushed to the backyard and saw a dozen people in leather armor.

Now everyone is stunned by this kind of dress, what is this doing. However, they didn't dare to be stunned for long, and rushed forward with their knives.

Life and death time can't be distracted.

The black-armored people on the opposite side also reacted quickly, and these people quickly took out two short guns from behind them, and directly hit the trigger without the slightest hesitation.

Bang bang.

Gunpowder smoke rose, bullets flew, and those who rushed in front were instantly knocked to the ground.

The black-armored men were very fast, stuck their short guns back into their waists, picked up their crossbow arrows, and shot them.

Although it could only fire five short crossbows in a row, it still caused complete damage.

After shooting the bolts, the men drew the knives at their waists and killed them directly. They cooperated with each other, alternated covers, and were skilled in swordsmanship, killing the people who rushed up in an instant, leaving no piece of armor.

The battle lasted only a short moment, and the people around the hall master were almost dead.

Looking at the only seven or eight people left around him, the hall master's face turned black, and his eyes were full of despair. Obviously, these people are not capable of dealing with them.

This time it's over, my life is over!

Then there was a determined look in the hall master's eyes, anyway, things are already like this, only death.

Thinking of this, the hall master rushed forward with a knife.

Anyway, hacking one to death counts as one, and if you can't chop it to death, they will kill it, and you can earn one more by cutting it more. Reading the book

These black-armored people were very experienced, and some of them picked up crossbow arrows from behind and shot two arrows directly at the hall master's legs.

After two thuds, both of the hall master's knees were hit by arrows, and he fell directly to the ground, and the knife in his hand flew out.

The two black-armored men who rushed in front rushed up directly, quickly pressed the hall master's neck with their knees, and at the same time carried his two hands behind his back, reached out and took out a hemp rope and put it directly on the hall master's wrist, and then pulled it hard, tying his hands to death.

At the same time, someone reached out and pinched the hall master's chin, opened his mouth, and stuffed a ball of cloth into it.

Someone quickly searched the hall master's body, threw the short knife he found aside, and at the same time lifted his whole person up and put it directly aside.

Baihu walked forward with a knife and said, "Surrender and don't kill, kneel down, put down the weapon in your hand!" ”

The remaining few people were already frightened at this time, and after hearing this, they hurriedly threw the knife in their hands on the ground, knelt directly on the ground, and obediently surrendered.

At this time, the people on the left and right sides also pressed up, and directly arrested these people.

At this time, the front door also knocked open, and Huang Kezhang walked up with someone.

After seeing these black-armored people, Huang Kezhang's brows furrowed, and he said directly: "Who are you?" ”

Seeing the battle situation at the scene, Huang Kezhang knew that these people were not simple. And judging by the situation, these people are friends and foes.

Look at other people's equipment, that is what they envy and blush. Steel crossbow arrows, short guns, and new standard knives are extraordinary.

"Humble Longteng Wei Hundred Households. I've seen Huang Ge Lao. Baihu took a step forward and said.

Listening to the other party's words, Huang Kezhang frowned.

This person actually only reported his official position, but did not say his name, obviously this is not his negligence, but deliberate.

"Why are you here?" Huang Kezhang looked at the other party and said directly.

"We were ordered by General Qi to come to capture the thieves." Baihu said directly: "We have to take the people away, Lord Huang can search the scene carefully, I believe that a lot of evidence of their rebellion can be found here." ”

"People can't let you take it away," Huang Kezhang looked at this hundred households of Long Tengwei and said directly.

Although facing the cabinet scholars, Baihu was still not in a hurry, and said without humility or arrogance: "We are following the holy decree of His Majesty, and Huang Ge Lao still don't embarrass us." ”

Huang Kezhang believed the other party's words, and no one dared to falsely convey the holy decree. What's more, these people look like soldiers. Judging by their equipment and combat effectiveness, these people should be His Majesty's personal guards.

But at this time, you have to be careful.

So Huang Kezhang took a step forward and said directly: "If there is a holy decree, take it out." If you can't produce the decree now, I can't let you take people away, but I can go back with you and meet Your Majesty, who are now in our custody.

Baihu frowned, the holy decrees they received were all oral decrees, where did the holy decrees come from to show him.

Although I really want to forcibly take people away, but Baihu also knows that it is impossible, he is facing a cabinet scholar, and there are so many people on the other side, he is really going to be ruthless, and it will be very troublesome anyway.

The other party's opinion can be accepted by himself, and it is nothing more than escorting people back together.

So Baihu nodded and said, "No problem, Huang Ge please." ”

Huang Kezhang didn't ask for more, and explained a few words to the people behind him, asking them to search the scene well, and he took a team of people to follow Baihu to escort people back.

A group of people soon returned to Zhu Youxiao's residence.

When he came here, Huang Kezhang saw a person, this person was Qi Yuangong, Qi Jin's son.

Now everyone in the dynasty knows that Qi Jin is the most favored, he himself is the governor, commanding the new army in Beijing, one son has made great achievements in this expedition to the southwest, and the other son is leading His Majesty's personal guards by His Majesty's side, which can be said to be extremely honorable.

Seeing Qi Yuangong coming at this time, Huang Kezhang was even more sure that these black-armored people were his subordinates.

"I've seen Huang Ge Lao." Qi Yuangong came to Huang Kezhang's side and bowed.

His demeanor was very respectful, his tone was very polite, and his posture was very low.

"These are your people?" Huang Kezhang pointed to the black armor behind him and said.

"Back to the Huang Pavilion Elder, they are all His Majesty's personal guards." Qi Yuangong said, and the meaning was obvious.

What do you call my people?

Where did my people come from?

These are all His Majesty's people. Although you are a cabinet member, you can't defile people's innocence.

Glancing at Qi Yuangong, Huang Kezhang nodded.

Obviously, this Qi Yuangong is not simple, he is very cautious, and he is also a capable person, which can be seen from his subordinates.

So Huang Kezhang didn't want to go around the bend, and asked directly: "Your Majesty asked you to pick up these prisoners?" ”

"Back to Huang Ge Lao, Your Majesty has a decree to send these people to Jinyiwei. As for Huang Ge Lao, His Majesty summoned Huang Ge Lao inside, and Xu Ge Lao and the British Duke were already inside. ”

After hearing this, Huang Kezhang nodded.

His purpose is not to ask these people to commit crimes, but to ensure that these people do not have problems. Now that it's decided, it doesn't matter who it hands over to after that's okay.

When Huang Kezhang went, he found out that these people were indeed thieves. Resisting the round-up, with a sword in his hand and even armor, he is obviously a thief. Now that they are determined to be anti-thieves, the others are no longer important.

"Then I'll leave these people to you." Huang Kezhang looked at Qi Yuangong and said.

After saying this, Huang Kezhang did not stop at all. Turned around and walked inside.

Now that His Majesty has woken up and is still summoning his courtiers, this is more important.

When Huang Kezhang walked inside, he found that His Majesty had not yet come.

Xu Guangqi and the British Duke were there, but the two of them were eating.

A simple table with rice, pastries, gruel, and a few side dishes.

Seeing Huang Kezhang walk in, Chen Hong on the side said, "Huang Ge came just in time. His Majesty said that several adults must have been empty after a busy night. So eat first, and then talk about what you have to eat. ”

After hearing this, Huang Kezhang also breathed a sigh of relief, and sat down next to Xu Guangqi, and when he saw Xu Guangqi and the British Duke eating slowly, he was suddenly comforted.

After a busy night's work, I have been very nervous, but it seems to be relieved at this time.

After soothing it, this stomach is really hungry. Anyway, His Majesty was not there, so there was nothing to be polite about, so Huang Kezhang served himself a bowl of porridge. Then he took a piece of bread and began to eat it.
