Chapter 42: They Are Back

Since Zhang Rui's enthusiasm and encouragement, two days have passed to this day.

The personnel of each team are training hard and intensely, and for this reason, the food consumption of the cottage has accelerated a lot.

It was early in the morning, and it was still the same morning jog as always. However, the distance has been extended from three kilometres to five kilometres at the request of most people.

Originally, Zhang Rui was worried that someone would not be able to stand it if he rose too high, but they all gritted their teeth and persevered.

After breakfast, Zhang Rui originally let them rest for half an hour. However, many people only rest for a quarter of an hour and begin to consciously practice martial arts. There are also some people who want to be lazy and rest for a while, but seeing that others are working hard, they are really embarrassed to be lazy here.

There is only the last day left before Zhang Rui's martial arts assessment. So everyone is racing against time to practice hard. After all, no one wants to give up the assessment without hard work, not only for that little bit of food, but more importantly, for honor and the opportunity for promotion in the future.

Looking at his subordinates who were so conscious, Zhang Rui was very relieved. It's not in vain.

At the same time, Zhang Rui inevitably thought anxiously in his heart

"Why hasn't that gang of bandits come back yet, the longer it drags on, the more the news of Zhilian Mountain will not be able to be blocked."

"Sixth brother." At this time, Li Tiezhu, who was at the sentry station at the foot of the mountain, quickly came to Zhang Rui's side and said

"What's wrong? What's the situation? Zhang Rui asked with a smile

"Yes, Sixth Brother, a group of people were found coming not far from the bottom of the mountain. According to the identification of Pang Liu (the bandit who defected) who was stationed with me, they should be Zhong Wuliang and Guo Jiatang. Li Tiezhuan reported.

"Okay, it's finally back." Zhang Rui was very happy, now as long as he took down this gang of bandits, the pressure would be reduced.

So, Zhang Rui gathered all the men and prepared to set up an ambush.

After two days of Liu Muxiu going outside to buy a lot of money, almost all of the bandit teams are now equipped with weapons, bidding farewell to the embarrassment of using agricultural tools as weapons before.

Each sword and shield soldier is equipped with a sword and shield. The pikemen all have spears at their disposal. Each archer had a bow and at least thirty arrows, and each had a short sword for melee defense. Each scout had a bow and arrow, as well as a steel sword.

Look at these men, those well-crafted weapons. Zhang Rui knows that this is what he relies on.

"It's a pity that there is no armor, I don't know if there will be casualties, it would be great if there was iron armor and cotton armor. I don't know if those guys in the green camp dare to sell their armor, let Liu Muxiu ask that guy next time. Zhang Rui looked at everyone and said with some worry

………

To set up an ambush, it is necessary to make everything in front of you look like it is really unchanged.

All the people who were guarding outside were replaced by the bandits of the past, and even the people who were guarding at the gate were also replaced.

"Everything is just waiting for them to come in, as long as they don't know the news, come and close the door and beat the dogs. I don't believe I'm going to be able to get you bandits. Zhang Rui arranged everything and waited calmly and said

"Second brother, this time it went so well, it seems that your prestige in the cottage is going to go to another level." Guo Jiatang said to Zhong Wuliang, who was in a good mood at this time

"The fourth brother has won the prize. There are eldest brothers who can't talk about any prestige or prestige, they are all their own brothers. If it weren't for the help of the fourth brother this time, things wouldn't have gone so smoothly. Zhong Wuliang looked modest in his mouth, but he still couldn't hide the smile on his mouth.

"Second brother, be humble. You helped the people, and the whole ransom payment process was also planned by you, brother, I am just helping to run errands! Guo Jiatang said complimentarily again

"My brother doesn't say so much, I want to eat and drink well when I go back this time. When I had slept enough, I asked my brother to go to the county's Qinglou to play with women. I heard that there are a few good goods in the Qinglou this time, and this time the fourth brother definitely wants to give the second brother a face, and he will not rush to give the silver with the second brother. Zhong Wuliang said with a lewd smile

"Then, this time, the fourth brother will thank the second brother first."

"My brother, thank you. Really. As he spoke, Zhong Wuliang turned back to the bandits behind him and said, "Brothers, work hard, you can drink wine and eat meat in large gulps when you return to the cottage, and everyone can share the silver." ”

"Good..."

"Thank you, second master"

Zhong Wuliang's words made the bandits behind him excited, and they were finally almost at the cottage to relax.

"Who's those two over there?" Zhong Wuliang looked at the two people who were on guard and said

"It seems to be the fifth person." Guo Jiatang looked at it and said

"You go and bring the two of them here." I saw Zhong Wuliang say to the people who were close to him

The two sentry guards were brought to Zhong Wuliang after a while

"Two masters, three masters."

The two of them greeted Zhong Wuliang and Guo Jiatang at the same time

"Hmm." Guo Jiatang responded

"Smack."

"Smack."

Before the two of them could understand what was going on, they each received a slap in the face from Zhong Wuliang. They could only cover their faces and look at Zhong Wuliang in confusion.

I saw Zhong Wuliang angrily scolding at the two of them: "Are you two dead? Didn't you see me coming back with the four masters? Won't you come over to say hello? Guy who doesn't know the rules. ”

"Forget it, second brother. Don't be so angry, go back and let the fifth teach them a lesson, it's not cost-effective to be angry and bad for such a newcomer. Guo Jiatang said comfortingly to Zhong Wuliang

"Fuck you, two pieces of shit. Get out..."As he spoke, Zhong Wuliang kicked the two of them to the ground and scolded

The two of them crawled away as quickly as if they were burdened. caused the bandits behind Zhong Wuliang to laugh, and when the two left, they vaguely heard Zhong Wuliang's scolding voice and Guo Jiatang's words of comfort.

There is no harm if there is no comparison, thinking about Zhang Rui's respect for them, and then thinking about the deeds of these bandits. The trace of uneasy guilt in the hearts of the two of them didn't know where to go, but they were glad that they followed the sixth brother.

In this way, Zhong Wuliang played majestically all the way to the gate of the mountain.

At this time, they also called open the gate. Looking at this open door, Guo Jiatang suddenly felt a little worried in his heart. This was very strange to him, so he said to Zhong Wuliang

"Why are all the people who are on guard today the fifth person?"

At this moment, Zhong Wuliang, who had just finished brushing his majesty, was in a good mood, and he didn't think much about Guo Jiatang's words, so he replied: "I probably think that the fifth person is easy to bully!" ”

"But shouldn't all of our old brothers be there at the third outpost, right?" Guo Jiatang continued to express his doubts.

"Why else, I guess that guy went to the justice hall to gamble again. The fourth brother doesn't have to think about it too much, they are all back here, what else can they do. Besides, we are all in charge of the government. Zhong Wuliang said indifferently, then ignored Guo Jiatang and walked straight to the cottage.

Seeing this, the bandits behind Zhong Wuliang also followed Zhong Wuliang and walked into the cottage.

"Yes, what's wrong with me today? It seems to be overthinking. ”

Guo Jiatang looked at the people who entered the cottage and didn't think much about it. Follow the footsteps of the crowd and go inside.

Just after they had just passed the corner, they couldn't see their figures. The two janitors, who were kneeling outside, quietly closed the door outside.
