Chapter 2: Water Bandits

Watching these boats slowly approach, and the people who only cared about laughing still noticed it.

Wang Rui was a little flustered, looking at the formation of no less than forty or fifty small boats, each of which had about one or twenty people.

Wang Rui had an indescribable feeling that these people must be coming for them, so he turned around and shouted.

"There's a ship coming this way, it seems to be a ......"

"Hey! This is the Min River, dredging the river in the north, there are boats coming and going, it is normal, you make a fuss. ”

A middle-aged man in his forties nearby didn't wait for him to finish, turned his head to look at Wang Rui and said.

The person who spoke, Wang Rui, knew what his name was Li Mingzheng, and like his uncle, he was another general on this trip, and he had a close relationship with his uncle, and he was also good to Wang Rui on weekdays.

"That is, although you kid has the strength, but you have never seen the world, and a ship passing by scares you like this, ah, hahahaha......"

"yes, haha...... Besides, there has never been a bandit in the hundreds of miles here, and even if there are us, don't be afraid! Hahaha......"

"Hahaha...... Hahahaha......"

It caused everyone to laugh and laugh.

The movement here caused the other people to ask curious questions, and they also let out a little laughter when they understood the reason.

Wang Yong also said Wang Rui with a smile.

Wang Rui was also a little helpless

Moreover, no one stood up to look at it as he spoke.

The ship was rushing towards this side, and I don't know who shouted: "Not good! There are water bandits! "Finally alarmed, the officers and soldiers who were still talking and laughing.

One by one, they got up and looked at both sides.

"Not good, there's one in the east."

Everyone who was finally moved looked at a thin figure in the crowd, especially Li Mingzheng, whose eyes were still a little complicated.

The officers and men took up their helmets and weapons one after another, and the chaotic sound made the deck as noisy as a busy city, and Wang Yong and Li Mingzheng could not suppress it for a while.

"Boom...... Squeak......"

At this time, the door of the pavilion was pushed open from the inside out, and they walked out of the door where the two of them separated.

"Wow, wow"

There was a sound of footsteps, and the commotion stopped abruptly and looked at the open attic door.

A young man walked out of the door, dressed in red feather armor, wearing a red tasseled helmet and a sword hanging from his waist. Medium build, about six feet tall, handsome face, incompatible with the battle-hardened general in Wang Rui's imagination.

This person is Su Zuoyang, the general of this trip.

Su Zuoyang, lightly resting his right hand on the saber, walked to the deck step by step, looked around as he walked, and said, "What kind of system is it that is so panicked, and where is the military might." ”

"General!"

Seeing the comer, everyone bowed their heads and hugged their fists.

"Just a thief, why make a fuss!"

As he spoke, Su Zuoyang pulled out his saber and said.

"Prepare to defend against the enemy."

"Yes"

The crowd scattered to the side of the boat, their swords unsheathed, and their bows were full. Wang Yong also drew his saber and walked to Wang Rui's side, who clenched the spear in his hand and nodded.

At this time, Li Mingzheng went to his side and opened his mouth to say something, but was stopped by Su Zuoyang.

When these ships reached about 100 zhang, they surrounded the fleet of Wang Rui and his party and stopped moving forward.

Su Zuoyang stood on the deck, looking at the ships around him with some concern.

He knew what Li Mingzheng was going to say just now, and he couldn't figure it out, Qingyuan County had never heard of any water bandits entrenched here, and he had sent scouts to detect it several times before he traveled.

"Is it ......?"

Suddenly, Su Zuoyang's eyes were full of surprise as if he had thought of something.

"Whoosh...... Sou...... Whoosh......"

Bows and arrows shot from all directions interrupted his thinking, and Li Mingzheng and several guards around him brandished sabers to resist Su Zuoyang, and one of them was careless Li Mingzheng's left arm was pierced by an arrow.

Wang Rui and his uncle were lucky not to be injured, while the others were not so lucky, and many people fell to the ground in a hurry.

"Don't mess around, archers release arrows, quick, quick." Li Mingzheng shouted while holding his arm.

A round of arrows rained down, and seventy or eighty people had already fallen to the ground with serious injuries.

As for the guard ships, they have long been destroyed by the water thieves lurking in the water.

The archers who heard the order, although their posture was good-looking, did not even look at it when shooting.

Under the cover of the rain of arrows, a big man with a single knife in his hand had already boarded the boat, and everyone rushed towards the big man with a knife and shouting to kill.

The big man was not afraid at all, but the corners of his mouth were lightly raised and slightly mocking, waving the big knife in his hand and rushing towards the crowd, and there was no enemy everywhere he passed, and other thieves also boarded the boat one after another to fight with the officers and soldiers.

Seeing this, Su Zuoyang put his sword into the sheath and snatched the spear in Li Mingzheng's hand next to him.

"Whoosh"

One flew up, jumped in front of the big man and said: "What a handsome sword technique, I think I am not an unknown person in the green forest." ”

Da Hantong looked at the person in front of him with red eyes and smiled.

"Hehehe...... You don't deserve to know your grandfather's name."

"If you speak wildly, you will know if you are worthy or not."

After speaking, with a flick of his wrist, he pulled out a few spears and stabbed at the big man.
