Chapter 62: Zhou Cang's robbery
"I opened this mountain, and I planted this tree. If you want to live from now on, leave behind to buy road money. A group of people stood in the center of the continent and blocked the way of Tang Zheng and his party, and the leading Han shouted at Tang Zheng and his party.
"Childe, what should I do? There are many people on the other side, and there are about 100 people in Dakai. Zhang Chao grabbed the horse and said to Tang Zheng.
"On the other side is a rabble, telling my brothers to wind up their crossbows and kill them with me." Tang Zheng glanced at Zhang Chao and said. Zhang Chao turned around and ordered Tang Zheng's order. Everyone was ready, and Tang Zheng and his horse were currently rushing towards the enemy with a strong crossbow in hand.
When the other side has seen this situation, only about twenty people still dare to charge at themselves. So they all raised their swords to meet Tang Zheng and his party, but what they were waiting for was not Tang Zheng and his party but an overwhelming crossbow arrow, this kind of crossbow was improved by Tang Zheng through Zhuge Repeater, sacrificing a powerful attack power but being able to shoot ten times in a row. Although the attack power has been reduced a lot, it is not something that these bandits in front of them who don't even have leather armor and only wear cloth clothes can resist. Before blinking an eye, the corpses fell in front of them, and the people behind saw that the situation was not good. But how can the two legs of a man be faster than the four legs of a horse, and in a short time all the dead and wounded of the hundred robbers will be captured.
"Childe, the other side has been wiped out, they are the defeated Yellow Turban thieves who occupy the mountain here to rob the passing merchants, led by a man named Zhou Cang, who has been captured alive."
"Take me to see, by the way, are there any casualties among our brothers?"
"Hui Gongzi, except for a few bruises on our side, there are no casualties."
"Okay, come with me." Tang Zheng also jumped when he heard Zhou Cang's name, he had just recruited a Dian Wei, and now he sent another Zhou Cang, it seems that this trip to Luoyang is worth it.
"Dog officer, if you want to kill, kill if you want to kill, if you want to kill, if I Zhou Cang frowns, I will be raised by my grandson." A man at the head scolded Tang Zheng.
"Presumptuous, I think you are impatient, Childe, this person might as well be handed over to his subordinates, and let his subordinates teach him how to behave well." A cavalryman said to Tang Zheng.
"Forget it, a man is dying, and you don't allow him to scold twice." Tang Zheng said with a smile. It's just that this smile gave Zhou Cang a creepy feeling. "Let me ask you, is your name Zhou Cang?"
"Grandpa Xing doesn't change his name, he doesn't change his surname, Zhou Cang is also, you dog officials can't die well. Grandpa is waiting for you below. Zhou Cang raised his head and said to Tang Zheng, and after speaking, he snorted at Tang Zheng.
Tang Zheng wiped the saliva on his face and asked Zhou Cang: "Since you said that you are Zhou Cang, then let me ask you where Pei Yuanshao is?" ”
"If you die of this heart, I won't betray my brother even if I die."
"My lord, please let me go, I said, I know that the big boss is there, your lord, you can let me go, I have the old and the young, you can let me go," At this time, a wounded soldier cried and shouted to Tang Zheng and knocked his head on the ground.
"Traitor, you traitor. Lao Tzu will not let you go even if he is a ghost. Zhou Cang shouted at the wounded soldiers, and wanted to get up and pounce on the wounded soldiers.
"Okay, you said, if you want to live, it depends on whether what you say is worth your life." Tang Zheng said to the wounded soldiers.
"Adults, villains, old and young. The little ones are forced by them, and the little ones don't want to. ”
"Okay, if you talk nonsense like this, you won't be able to see the sun tomorrow, let's say that Pei Yuanshao is there."
"My lord, Pei's family is in the stockade on the mountain."
"How many people are there in the village now? How's the defense? Tang Zheng continued to ask.
"Lord Hui, there are still fifty or sixty people in the stockade, and the rest are women and children, and the stockade is generally not defended, only a few brothers are sentry."
"Well, okay, you take me to the stockade, as long as you take the stockade, you can live."
"Thank you, thank you, I'll take you up the mountain." As soon as he heard that he could live the wounded soldiers, he said to Tang Zheng happily.
"Zhang Chao, you take your brother who is not injured to destroy this stockade, you must pay attention to your own safety, if you find that this guy is telling a lie, kill him on the spot, you will also return immediately."
"Yes, Childe." After Zhang Chao finished speaking, he took a dozen brothers who were not injured and went to the mountain under the leadership of the wounded soldier.
"Tell me how you want to die." Tang Zheng continued to say to Zhou Cang.
"Bah, dog officer, you can't die well. If you want to kill, you have to listen to the respect, if Lao Tzu frowns, he will be a grandson, a lackey of the court, I bah! ”
"Okay, count your luck bad, the yellow scarf that died in my hands is not 30,000 but also 20,000. If you have any last words, please explain. ”
"Who are you? I want to know at whose hands I died. Zhou Cang asked Tang Zheng.
"Listen, get down there and remember who died at your hands. My name is Tang Zheng is the right Beiping Nongdu Lieutenant, your Yellow Turban Deng Mao in Youzhou was destroyed by me, count him Huanglong running fast, or let him be my soul under the knife. ”
When Zhou Cang heard that this person was Tang Zheng who pacified the Yellow Turban in Youzhou, he immediately knew that he was more than lucky today, if there was anyone among the most hated court officials among the Yellow Turbans, then Tang Zheng would definitely rank high. It was Tang Zheng who exterminated the Yellow Turbans in Youzhou and disrupted the plan of the great sage and mentor Zhang Jiao to collude with Wuhuan and Zhang Chun and others, which led to the failure of the entire Yellow Turban Uprising.
Just as Tang Zheng and Zhou Cang were about to continue to say something, Zhang Chao came back with someone. "Son, fortunately, the thieves on the mountain have all been pacified, and the bandit leader has been captured and guarded by his brothers, I am afraid that my son will come to report in a hurry."
"Okay, brothers, are there any casualties?"
"Back to Gongzi, only two people were slightly injured, and none of the others were injured."
"Hahaha, let's go, let's go and have a look. Come on, take Zhou Cang with you. ”
Zhou Cang heard Zhang Chao's report to Tang Zheng on the side, and knew that everything was over. Under the leadership of Zhang Chao, Tang Zheng came to the cottage after a while, and saw that there were crying women all around, some of them were maiden women who had been looted up the mountain, and some people who were already in the cottage.
Tang Zheng came to the hall of the cottage and looked around, from this hall, it can be seen that the life of these bandits is not easy, the hall is in tatters, some chairs are missing arms and legs, Tang Zheng found a chair that looked relatively complete and sat down and said to Zhang Chao: "Bring Pei Yuanshao up." Zhang Chao turned around and went out, and after a while, he walked in with a middle-aged man who looked like a scholar more than a bandit.
"You are Pei Yuanshao? I heard that you and Zhou Cangnai are the guards next to the great sage and good teacher, why didn't you go to accompany your great sage and good teacher and fell into the grass instead? ”
"Dog officer, kill if you want to kill, why is there so much nonsense." Pei Yuanshao was obviously not lightly injured, and he was weak to speak.
"Okay, let's take them down and keep them under strict guard, and we'll rest here for one night and leave early tomorrow morning." After Tang Zheng finished speaking, he waved his hand to everyone and motioned for everyone to go down and rest. He also turned around and walked towards the back room of the cottage.
