A dozen horsemen on horseback scattered along the riverbank, sticking their heads out to see if there were any ambushes hiding at the bottom of the weir on the riverbank.

The cautious behavior of the middle-aged bandit is very beneficial to the horse gang, but the big shopkeeper has a gloomy face, he has already said that there can be no ambush ahead, and the middle-aged bandit's behavior is clearly not believing him, and he has lost face.

The big shopkeeper has long been dissatisfied with this middle-aged bandit, and he feels even more unsafe about his master recruiting him, although the middle-aged bandit and his brothers can fight better than ordinary family members, but he is a bandit who has killed people after all.

If you have a dispute with the owner one day over something, it is very likely that you will kill the owner's entire family, and it is a big deal to go back and continue to be a bandit.

The chief shopkeeper, with great dissatisfaction, followed the caravan to the flat area, where the valley path was much wider, like a grain field used to thresh rice.

The middle-aged bandit rode to the grain field, and the uneasiness in his heart became more and more serious, just as he was about to dismount and go to inspect the woods on both sides for himself.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”

The horses heard a few firing sounds, but the distance was relatively far, the sound was not very loud, and the smoke was not clear.

However, the middle-aged bandit fell from the warhorse, but the family members saw it clearly.

"Big brother!"

"It's a bit black and black!"

"Brothers, the wind is blowing!"

A small half of the members of the horse gang are horse thieves who have been following the middle-aged bandits all the year round, and their hands are also stained with a lot of blood, and the first reaction to this situation is not to fight back quickly, after all, they are not an army, just a gang of horse thieves.

The first reaction is to escape as soon as possible, save their lives first, and wait until afterwards to find out who ambushed them, and find a chance to retaliate.

It's a pity that they met a group of learned troops, and before the battle, many factors had been taken into account through combat system engineering.

At the moment when the middle-aged bandit fell, dozens of ambush soldiers armed with firearms rushed out from both sides of the woods and fired the firecrackers in their hands.

It was not the guards who were shot, but the horses under their crotches.

The gunfire of seven or eight 2.5x rifled guns was not very loud, and the sound of dozens of doumi rifles firing at a single shot was very loud, plus the horses with large targets were only shot wounded and not shot.

The mules and horses were startled on the spot, screaming and scurrying around, no matter how wide the river valley was, it was only a narrow river valley, not a flat flat river, and the number of mules and horses that could accommodate it was limited.

At most, seven or eight mules and horses walked side by side, but there were more than a hundred frightened mules and horses here, and it was inevitable that trampling would occur.

Many of the guards were planted from their horses, and before they could escape, they were trampled to death by frightened mules and horses and a chaotic crowd.

The members of the caravan and the families of the two court officials saw that someone was dead, and looked at the pool of blood and the bones exposed around them, and their hearts became more and more frightened.

Flee in a panic, from this place where you could die at any moment.

The woods on both sides could not be went, and the chaotic horse gangs, whose cries were mixed with angry scolding, fled in a panic to both ends of the valley path.

It's a pity that there are twenty students from the Army Martial Arts Hall at both ends, armed with doumi-style rifles, facing the fleeing horse gang.

The students of the Army Martial Arts Hall vaguely saw that there were women and children in the chaotic crowd in the distance, and they couldn't help but hesitate a little, but there was no problem in shooting those Jin merchants and horse gangs who collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country.

The appearance of women and children gave them compassion, and they held bucket rice rifles and refused to shoot for a long time.

There are quite a few people who flee head-on, as long as they rush over, they can quickly break up the queue of students of the army martial arts hall, and they may even trample on many students of the army martial arts hall because of trampling.

Cao Bianjiao picked up the whip and whipped it on a student of the Army Martial Arts Hall, and scolded sharply: "Fire!" ”

Hearing this sentence of firing, the students who had a large number of shooting drills in the army martial arts hall fired the Doumi rifle in their hands next time.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”

After a dense burst of firing sounds, the chaotic crowd of horses fell to the point where more than a dozen people fell, almost to the point of missing a bullet.

"Reload!"

"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”

There was another dense burst of fire, and the chaotic crowd of horses fell a dozen people again, and there was a dead end in front, and the chaotic horses did not dare to rush forward, crying and wailing and retreating to the middle of the valley.

The students of the Army Martial Arts Hall pressed over step by step, until they gathered all the horse gang crowd together and stood about a hundred paces away from them with Doumi-style rifles.

It was only at this time that Wei Langzhong and Zheng Yuanwai, who were sitting in the carriage with their eyes closed, realized that something was wrong, and cautiously opened the curtain to take a look.

First I saw the chaotic crowd of horses, and then I hurried out, and about a hundred paces away stood some men with bird guns.

It's hard to see clearly from a distance, but the unique camouflage uniforms on their bodies are easy to identify.

A student of the Army's martial arts hall.

Wei Langzhong and Zheng Yuanwai's solemn mood relaxed slightly, just afraid that the other party would be a bandit and robber who didn't understand anything.

Although the students of the Army Martial Arts Hall are not very good, some of them are the concubines of the noble mansion, and they should know some rules of officialdom, and they can just use these officialdom rules to avoid this military disaster.

Wei Langzhong and Zheng Yuanwai cleaned up their appearance, and walked off the carriage calmly, and the panicked crowd around them saw the two of them, as if they had seen the backbone of the main heart, and they cried out one after another.

"Uncle, hurry up and say to those lowly Qiu Ba and let them put down their bird guns."

"You can't just leave it at that! You have to get down on your knees to let go of these damn Qiupachi. ”

"Kneel? I'm going to slaughter them! ”

Wei Langzhong and Zheng Yuanwai ignored these fellow sects who began to shout, but the thoughts in their hearts were not much different, these Qiu Ba saw such high-ranking officials as the two of them, and they were not frightened to pee their pants on the spot.

Wei Langzhong and Zheng Yuanwai walked to the side of the army martial arts hall students step by step, and an army martial arts student loaded a bayonet and resisted: "Stop!" ”

Wei Langzhong waved his hand as if he was waving away flies, and said unhappily: "This official is the first division of the dynasty, and next to him is the deputy of the first division, let your general come out and apologize." ”

When the students of the Army Lecture Martial Arts Hall heard that it was Zheng Wupin Lang Zhonghe from Wupin Wailang, they did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly reported it to Cao Bianjiao.

Cao Bianjiao was discussing with Zhu Tiema whether to kill them all, or hand them over to the officers and soldiers of the Miyun Inspection Division, when he heard the report of the students of the Army's Martial Arts Hall, his face was a little strange.

Cao Bianjiao walked over with his waist knife, and two middle-aged people who looked really extraordinary were reprimanding the surrounding army martial arts students.

The students of the Army Martial Arts Hall were either from ordinary people or from the noble mansions, and they did not dare to refute in the slightest in front of such high-ranking officials.

Wei Langzhong and Zheng Yuanwai saw that the main owner who was besieging them was coming, their faces became even more ugly, and they were about to shout a loud reprimand.

What he saw was a sword light.

The students of the Army Martial Arts Hall were stunned.

The fellow sects who gathered not far away to prepare for the dog battle were in place.

Cao Bianjiao held the waist knife and wiped the blood on the two of them, shook his head and sighed: "It's really the world that the people are not ancient." ”

"Falsely claiming that high-ranking officials have begun to form groups."
