Chapter 137: Conquering the New Horse Bandits
"Are you, last night's group of horse bandits came from a big background?" Gu Xun asked.
"Well, the bandits last night were better equipped than all the bandits we had met before, and many of them were made of weapons that were far more than miscellaneous iron, and most importantly, they had a lot of horses. Ye Xing nodded.
"And in such an environment, it is definitely not an ordinary horse bandit who can have such a good configuration, maybe there is some force behind it to support it. Ye Xing continued.
After Ye Xing's words, Gu Xun immediately recalled the large amount of grain obtained from the horse bandit convoy last night, and the numerous transport personnel.
"You mean, there is a city that secretly instructed the horse bandits to loot?" Gu Xun reacted immediately.
If there is really some big force behind these horse bandits to instruct them and stand on their platform, then the reason for the high-quality weapon materials of the horse bandits can be explained.
"This is too much, these things have been waging wars for many years, and even now they are deliberately instigating horse bandits to rob the villagers. ”
After a pause, Gu Xun said angrily, his fists clenched.
However, he didn't have any good way, after all, his strength was too weak, and he couldn't even handle a horse bandit at present, let alone the forces that might exist behind the horse bandits.
And if it weren't for Ye Xing, he might not even be able to protect the village, and he might even have been beheaded by the horse bandits.
"Tell the village guards to concentrate on defending the village, there was a lot of harvest last night, and the village wall needs to be repaired. Ye Xing said.
At present, there are two entrances and exits in the village, one is the front village entrance and the other is the back village entrance.
All other directions are protected by thick earthen walls.
The village guards generally stand on a nearly three-meter-high, half-meter-wide earthen wall to watch the outside of the village, and there is a wooden tower behind each of the two village entrances for people to guard.
It's just that the wooden tower space is only enough for one person to move, but even so it can play a strong warning role.
The village guards generally live outside the village, have marching tents to protect from the wind and rain, and can better play the role of outer guards.
But now it doesn't work, if Ye Xing's guess comes true, then there is a high probability that the other party will send a team to directly besiege the village.
The realm of the village guards is not high, and their strength is not strong, once they encounter the siege of many horse bandits, I am afraid that they will all die in battle within a few breaths.
"By the way, how many horse bandit captives are left behind the village?" Ye Xing suddenly asked.
"About a hundred. Gu Xun thought for a while.
"Give them weapons and let them all assemble in front of the village. Ye Xing said.
"Isn't that too early? They might turn back. Gu Xun became worried.
"They don't dare to fight back, I will personally command them. Ye Xing looked at Gu Xun.
"Good. ”
......
Time passed quickly, and nearly a hundred horse bandits gathered at the entrance of the former village under the watchful eyes of the village guards.
"What happened?"
"They're not going to go back and kill us, are they?"
"What? ”
The horse bandits talked a lot, and for a while they became timid, for fear that they would not behave well, so they went to Huangquan to report.
Ye Xing stood at the entrance of the village and looked at the horse bandits who had gathered: "Distribute weapons and armor." He looked to his side.
Gu Xun understood, nodded and jumped off the earthen wall, standing outside the entrance of the village.
"One set for one person, pick it up by yourself. Gu Xun said coldly.
Seeing this, the horse bandits were stunned for a moment, and then honestly lined up in a long line, and one of them took away a set of armor and weapons.
"Now you can put it on. Ye Xing suddenly sat down on the earthen wall.
The horse bandits looked at each other, not knowing why, and then honestly put on their armor and held their weapons.
"Ninety-eight in all. Ye Xing muttered to himself.
Li Mu and the others stood behind him, also a little dazed.
They didn't understand how Ye Gongzi could release these horse bandits so early, and also let the other party fully armed.
"Hey, do you want to go back and continue to be horse bandits?"
"If you want to go back, you can leave here now with your weapons and armor. Ye Xing said loudly.
The horse bandits looked at each other, but no one made any moves.
"Don't worry, I'll do it, you can make your own choice. Ye Xing continued.
The group of horse bandits suddenly became noisy, and there were not many voices of discussion.
Suddenly, someone said, "What if we don't want to be horse bandits again?"
The man was loud, almost yelling.
As soon as his voice came out, the horse bandits suddenly stopped talking, and they all looked at the white-clothed man sitting on the earthen wall.
"Don't want to be a horse bandit again? It's very simple, stay with me for the rest of the time, and follow my arrangement. ”
"Give you half a pillar of incense time to think. ”
Ye Xing smiled and spoke, then took out a fruit and tasted it carefully.
"Quick, things are brought in. Seeing this, Li Mu turned around and spoke.
Suddenly, a plate of beast meat was put on the wall, and the village guards smiled, wiped their hands, and then ate it in a big gulp.
"Knock ......" The horse bandits in the field looked at each other, and there was a sound of spit from time to time.
"Childe, if you don't dislike it, we'll mess with you. Suddenly, a horse bandit spoke up and ran out to swear allegiance.
As soon as the group of people stood up, the rest of the bandits looked at each other, wanting to see what happened next.
"Okay, let's go into the village. Ye Xing said.
So the group of horse bandits walked into the entrance of the village, and as soon as they entered the village, they saw a village guard walking over with a knife.
They were taken aback and subconsciously wanted to draw their knives, but they immediately stopped moving.
If you draw the sword, I'm afraid it's really over.
This group of people was very worried in their hearts, their eyes were firmly fixed on the village guards, and they did not dare to make any moves.
However, the next move of the village guards made them relax and become very frightened.
The village guards took out a stack of golden tickets from a large box and gave each of these people one.
The horse bandits' eyes widened suddenly, this is a golden ticket?
Some of the horse bandits immediately pinched their faces, pinching their faces red and purple, and then under the gaze of the village guards, they happily walked into the village.
When the other horse bandits at the entrance of the village saw this, their thoughts were complete for a while.
Most of them make horse spinning out of desperation, just to have a full meal and survive.
And those horse bandits who are already evil in their hearts have long been cleaned up, so the thoughts in the depths of the two are still slightly different.
During their time as horse bandits, they were able to eat and drink openly, and as for money, it was never thought of, and all money had to be handed over to the boss.
And once the money is privately collected by themselves, it will be a severe beating if it is discovered, and it may even be directly killed.
And they don't have much money in their private collection, most of them are just a few copper coins or something, so it's not too bitter.
And at this moment, a golden ticket appeared in front of their eyes, and this golden ticket was equivalent to one gold coin, that is, one hundred silver coins.
And one silver coin is one hundred copper coins, so this golden ticket is equivalent to instant wealth for them, but it is rich.
But, let's think about it in the long run, once you mess with that son, it will start with a gold coin, and then it will be more.
"Childe, let's mess with you!"
From now on, Lao Tzu's life will be Gongzi's. ”
The horse bandits outside the entrance of the village got up one after another and quickly lined up and walked towards the entrance of the village.
They still didn't dare to swarm in, mainly for fear of angering Ye Xing.
