Chapter XXV. Exchange of Hostages

Wang Bozong was stunned when he heard this, recalled Guo Yongzhong's words in his mind, and muttered: "Could it be that the town of Bafang was really destroyed by Yushan Collection?" But I heard that the hundred households in the town led the troops to exterminate it! ”

After thinking for a while, Wang Bozong asked, "How many people are there in the Yushan Collection?" How's that going? ”

A family member who came back to report the news hurriedly said: "Back to the boss, there are a hundred and dozens of people in Yushan, all of them are young and strong, and they also carry waist knives and spears!" ”

"That's right! Boss, I looked at these people familiarly, and then I thought about it carefully, it was the group of people we met on the official road! These people really ate the gall of the leopard, and dared to sneak attack and capture our sentry brothers! ”

Wang Bozong couldn't help frowning, snorted coldly, and said, "Hmph! It's really a narrow road! ”

"Boss! The leader of Yushanji claimed to be Liu Juntao, and he said that we had arrested the people of Yushanji for no reason, and asked us to meet at the reeds of Dongping Lake in the south an hour later, and exchange hostages in person! ”

"Humph! Interesting! ”

After speaking, Wang Bozong glanced at Guo Muying, who fell to the ground, and ordered his subordinates to lock him in the house, leaving three family members to guard here.

Then Wang Bozong gathered the people and horses, and prepared to meet the people and horses of Yushan for a while.

Guo Muying was pulled up by the two Wang family members and dragged forward with a rope.

At this time, Guo Muying heard that Liu Juntao brought someone to save him, and the fear in his heart instantly dissipated a lot. Although she has not been saved, Guo Muying firmly believes in one thing: Liu Juntao will definitely be able to save herself.

A moment later, Wang Bozong set out from this abandoned post station with more than forty of his men, and hurried towards the reeds of Dongping Lake to the south.

This deserted post station is not far from the reeds in the area of Dongping Lake in the south, and Wang Bozong and his party can arrive in about an hour if they are in a hurry.

But Wang Bozong was not in a hurry, but marched slowly with a group of men.

Halfway through, Wang Bozong called a capable subordinate and said, "You immediately ride a fast horse and make a detour to the area of Dongping Lake, and summon the stove households in the reeds to come to help!" Be quick! ”

The right-hand man who was selected was the same person who had whipped Yan Hu before, and immediately nodded yes, rode his horse away from the large army, and galloped towards the southwest.

Since Wang Bozong can be the manager of the Wang family's Ding team, it means that he is not an ordinary person, otherwise the Wang family, who is covering the sky in Huakou Town, will not let Wang Bozong lead all the family members.

You must know that the number of family members recruited by the Wang family is more than 200 people, all of whom are young and strong, and even the general Qian general and guerrilla recruits are not as many as the Wang family!

Wang Bozong was originally a ringing horse in the south of Yanzhou Mansion, and he didn't know how much he had done in the past to kill people and goods, and he had gathered a lot of people around him by relying on his skills.

Wang Bozong simply relied on his outstanding riding skills and escaped from the chaos, only to pick up a life, but then he was wanted by the government everywhere and had nowhere to hide.

At this time, the Wang family in Huakou Town began to recruit troops and horses because of the increasing expansion of the private salt business, and took a fancy to Wang Bozong's ability, kept it, turned into a black household and hid in the village, and became the steward of the family Ding team.

However, even Wang Bozong, who has such a very experience, when he met Liu Juntao and others on the official road, he also realized that Liu Juntao and others were not good, not only large in number but also well-trained.

Moreover, Wang Bozong could see that this group of people had a rather good demeanor in their manners, which was extremely deadly!

"It seems that this Yushan set is really a hard stubble!"

Wang Bozong secretly calculated while hurrying away: "If the ordinary village bandits and local tyrants are okay, these more than 40 people under my command are enough to deal with it." Not to mention anything else, I and these five men can cover up and kill a piece of the horse with one rush! However, seeing that the group of people and horses gathered in the fish mountain had the demeanor of a battalion soldier, and they also carried a lot of spears, this is not easy to do! ”

Thinking of this, Wang Bozong made up his mind and decided to deal with Liu Juntao and the others first, and wait until the stove households in the reeds of Dongping Lake rushed to support before taking action.

"Humph! No matter how tough you are, you can't stand the crowd, and when the time comes, hundreds of stove households will rush, and I'll see how you can resist! ”

At the same time, two miles north of Dongping Lake.

The one hundred and twenty-six young men of the Yushan Collective Guard had disappeared at this time, and only ten people were left waiting for orders on the side, along with the two Wang family members captured by the guards.

I saw that the two family members were beaten and their noses were blue and their faces were swollen, and one of them had one arm outward, which was obviously broken. The two people were tied up and thrown on the ground, like two fat pigs waiting to be slaughtered, which can be described as extremely miserable.

And Liu Juntao was squatting aside, constantly writing and drawing on the ground with a branch, and Zhang Xiaojun and Yan Hu were also squatting on the side and watching carefully.

"When the Wang family's brigade arrives, I will take these ten brothers here to drag them down. Yan Hu! You and your brothers and the rest of my brothers lay in ambush in the reeds, and at a distance of two miles from here, they divided into three waves, holding the left, right, and front, forming a pocket formation. Be sure to wait for my order, I will lure the Wang family into the reeds and lead these miscellaneous pieces into the pocket array!" ”

Yan Hu frowned and said, "Big brother, you go to ambush, I'll stay to lure the enemy!" ”

"Needless to say! I must do what lures the enemy. ”

Zhang Xiaojun asked, "Big brother, what about me?" ”

"You take your brothers around from the east and attack the abandoned post station where the Wang family stayed!"

Zhang Xiaojun frowned and said, "Big brother, how can you be sure that Anxi Miscellaneous will leave Guo Muying there?" ”

Liu Juntao said with great certainty: "Because I expected that these miscellaneous pieces didn't plan to exchange hostages with us at all!" Even if they come, they have only one purpose, and that is to destroy us! ”

Zhang Xiaojun said with a cold face: "In other words, there is only one way to start a war between us and the Wang family!" ”

"That's right!"

Liu Juntao patted Zhang Xiaojun on the shoulder and said: "This may be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, winning our brothers is a dragon into the sea and an eagle striking the sky!" ”

Zhang Xiaojun and Yan Hu both nodded solemnly, and confirmed the details of the plan with Liu Juntao, and then set off with their subordinates.

After the two left, Liu Juntao picked up the long knife and walked to the side of the two captives, and said coldly: "If you want to live, shut up Lao Tzu in a while, otherwise, even in front of your manager Wang Bozong, Lao Tzu can cut you!" ”

After the two captives were punched and kicked, they had long lost their previous arrogance, and they scrambled to nod their heads, for fear that they would touch their heads.

Then, Liu Juntao said to the ten young men: "Wait a while, everyone be vigilant and watch my gestures!" ”

Everyone nodded yes.

It didn't take long for Wang Bozong to arrive with more than 40 people and stopped about a hundred steps away from Liu Juntao and the others. Wang Bozong waved his hand violently, and more than forty people scattered to the left and right, blocking the face of Liu Juntao and the others in a half-moon shape.

Liu Juntao was not timid when he saw this, and shouted loudly: "Where are the people from my Yushan Collection!" ”

The ten young men behind Liu Juntao also pulled the two captives forward and stood behind Liu Juntao. These ten young men are all sword and shield bearers, and at this time they have all raised their shields to their chests for protection, and at the same time they are nervously guarding with knives in their right hands.

Wang Bozong looked at Liu Juntao and the others not far away, stepped forward on his own hand, and asked loudly, "Who are you?" What is it called? ”

"Liu Juntao! Where are the people of my fish mountain set! If you don't let people go, you're welcome! ”

Liu Juntao asked again.

Wang Bozong sneered and said, "What are you!" How dare you threaten Lao Tzu? You're welcome a Lao Tzu to take a look! ”

As soon as the words fell, Liu Juntao turned his head and glanced at him, and the two young men behind him immediately understood, and pulled the captive with a broken arm and walked between the two sides. One of them kicked the captive in the back, knocking him to the ground.

Seeing this, Liu Juntao did not hesitate, and immediately yelled: "Cut it for me!" ”

Hearing this, the two young men immediately grabbed the captive, and the other drew a knife in his hand, and in the frightened shouts of the captive, in Wang Bozong's eyes full of incredulity, the sword flashed, blood splashed, and the captive's head rolled to the ground, and blood gushed to the ground.

"How! Handed over or not! Liu Juntao held the knife in his right hand and shouted coldly.

Wang Bozong's face was pale, and he gritted his teeth and shouted: "What a gut! That subordinate Lao Tzu doesn't want it! Kill me, brothers! ”

After speaking, Wang Bozong rushed forward first, and the four horseback riders behind him charged together, screaming and waving the machete in their hands behind Wang Bozong, and the remaining forty or so family members also rushed over, and the momentum alone was as terrifying as hundreds of people charging!

Seeing this, Liu Juntao didn't do anything, and immediately pulled the remaining captive, and then yelled at the ten young men behind him: "Run!" Into the reeds! ”

The ten young men were not ambiguous, and immediately turned and ran, rushing into the dense reeds almost in the blink of an eye.

Liu Juntao turned his head, looked at Wang Bozong and the Wang family who were getting closer and closer, and roared coldly: "You wait for death!" ”

After speaking, Liu Juntao stabbed the head, and then carried the captive's head and threw it forward with all his might, and immediately smashed into the crowd of the Wang family, just hit one person, and smashed the unlucky family to the ground immediately with his head broken and bleeding.

After that, Liu Juntao turned around and ran, rushing into the reeds like a wild horse unleashed.

"Bastard! Don't leave one, kill them all! ”

Wang Bozong was so angry with Liu Juntao that he almost lost his mind.

For so many years, no matter where he is, it has always been him Wang Bozong who kills people and overkills goods, and is overbearing, when has he ever been insulted like this!

At this moment, Wang Bozong had only one thought in his heart, that is, to kill all the guys from Yushanji, and not one of them would be left, and he had long forgotten the plan to wait for the stove households along the Dongping Lake to come to help.

"Rush in!"

Wang Bozong gave an order, led more than 40 people to rush into the reeds, and in a blink of an eye, they disappeared into the reeds like the ocean, and completely disappeared.

Liu Juntao ran hard in front, constantly slashing the dense reeds blocking the way with the long knife in his hand, and the shouts of the Wang family's pursuit came from his ears, and he secretly said in his heart: "Okay! As long as you have the courage to come in, Lao Tzu will let you have no return! ”
