Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Master of the Bandits
"Dare to quibble! You are treacherous and slippery, and you are clearly prevaricating your own official, come on! Beat him on twenty boards! ”
Liu Xianling scolded and threw a bamboo stick on the ground.
Zhao Rui's face turned hideous for a while, and he put his hand in his arms and pressed it on the handle of the gun.
Case...... Then let's use you first......
The two officials on the side were about to step forward with big wooden sticks, and just when Zhao Rui was about to make a move, Lin Shizhao hurriedly ran in, his rushing strength couldn't even stop the officials at the door, but he was carried into the lobby.
"Lord Liu, Brother Zhao! Oh no! The bandits have come down the mountain and robbed them! Robbed a lot of shops, robbed a lot of our things, and even burned the shops, fortunately Zhao Gong stopped it in time! ”
Lin Shizhao told the reason, and the official who stopped him let go of his hand in time and let him run to Zhao Rui's side.
"Lord Liu, please hurry up and gather the officers and soldiers to fight Xiangyong, let's go up the mountain together, kill them all, retrieve the strong, and make up for everyone's losses!"
Lin Shizhao's face was full of expectations, but Lord Liu did not have the expected reaction, but his face was full of fear.
"Entered the county seat? Come on! Everyone block the county office, guard the front and back doors, and don't let the thieves in! ”
Lord Liu stood up and was a little frightened, and he didn't realize that he crooked his official hat, so he just ran towards the backyard by holding on to the wall, just thinking about hiding the cash in the house.
"My lord, what about the two of them?"
"Get out, get me out!"
Lin Shizhao's face was incredible, he never thought that the county order was such a soft bag.
"Go! Go! You two hurry out and lock the door! ”
The official brandished a stick and drove the two out of the yamen.
"Come back with me!"
Zhao Rui's face was solemn, he didn't expect the Zhou family to come up with a two-sided attack, which really made Zhao Rui a little flustered.
Fortunately, the store was not burned down, otherwise it would have been a huge loss.
Zhao Rui was now afraid that his people would be in any danger, so he hurriedly ran to the store with Lin Shizhao one after another.
Mom, these bandits are going to die!
Zhao Rui saw that many shops had been looted and ruined along the way, and the anger in his heart was even worse. But by the time the two of them arrived at the shop, the bandits had already returned with their harvest.
"Zhao Gong? How are you? ”
Zhao Rui was surprised to find that Zhao Gong was half-leaning on the ground**, and the spear also fell to the side, obviously injured.
Hurriedly helped Zhao Gong to do it, his clothes were torn, and it could be seen that there were a lot of scratches and bruises on his body.
"Young master, I'm fine, it's just that I'm getting cramps!"
Zhao Rui stood up and wrenched his ankle, and took a look at the situation of the store.
The shop was a mess, the tables and chairs that had been used as a circle had fallen into pieces, and the Kunnu inside was packing up the goods left after being robbed.
Some of the other Kunnu who participated in the exhibition didn't look bad, mostly sitting on the ground and gasping.
This fierce battle can be described as sudden, their training in such a short period of time has been tested today, and the fact that there are no deaths is the most satisfying point for Zhao Rui.
"Good...... Much better, young master! ”
Zhao Gong struggled to take the spear on the side and stood up.
"How many bandits are here, are they very powerful?" Zhao Rui asked with a solemn face.
After calming down, the more Zhao Rui thought about it, the more wrong it became, there were more than 30 people on his side, why didn't they have to leave a few lives for their bandits? What's more, I have a sharp weapon like a spear on my side, so it's really unreasonable not to stab a few to death.
And then there is Zhao Gong, in this group of people, in terms of standing up and being strong, or Zhao Gong is the leader, how could he fall to the ground in such a mess, and his weapon was also taken off.
"Young master, there are only a dozen thieves, I didn't pay attention to them, but one of them made a red tassel gun particularly powerful, as if he knew what kind of marksmanship routine, I was defeated again and again, fortunately others supported me in time, otherwise the young master is afraid that he will not see me."
Zhao Gong covered the wound on his chest, and he still had palpitations until now.
"Marksmanship?"
Zhao Rui's brows furrowed, it seemed that he really underestimated the world.
I thought it was just a group of small thieves, and they couldn't make it into the climate, but I didn't expect that some of them would know how to shoot. It seems that it is difficult to deal with ordinary means alone!
"I know, you let them pack up, let's all go home, let's think about it in the long run!"
The Kunnus cleaned up the endgame, and Zhao Rui paced back and forth. Seeing a extinguished torch on the ground, Zhao Rui couldn't help but be angry.
The Zhou family's methods are too ruthless, this is to kill them all! It's time to give them some color!
After a while, after cleaning up, Zhao Rui locked the door and returned home with a group of people.
The old housekeeper and the other house slaves were amazed to see everyone in such a mess.
Immediately prepare a wooden basin and hot water for the wounded to be cleaned.
Zhao Rui returned to the ancestral hall, opened the medicine bag, took out iodine wine and cotton swabs, and walked out with a box of anti-inflammatory drugs.
The wounds were washed, and Zhao Rui personally applied iodine wine to them to avoid infection.
Two of the stabs were seriously wounded, and they were given anti-inflammatory drugs.
When the Kunnus saw Zhao Rui's actions, they were all grateful, and the wounded who were drugged kept thanking them, and there seemed to be a warm current in their hearts.
Hey, these people.
It was obvious that he was working hard for Zhao Rui, but in the end, he had to thank Zhao Rui, and while he was slightly sad, Zhao Rui only felt that the anger in his chest was getting stronger and stronger.
Lingshanzhai, the nest of bandits.
The celebrations have already started early.
The bandits munched on stew, while the cows drank green wine.
These are all snatched from the mountain, and the food and drink that don't cost money are particularly happy to eat.
Most of these bandits are homeless people from the north, who are easy to work hard, with their strength, and the weakness of the southerners can be bullied, they are stationed in Lingshan, and they live by robbing caravans on weekdays.
Although they were arrogant, they rushed directly to the county seat, which was the first time in the world.
The boss Xue Fugui was hugging a folk girl who had just been snatched back and laughing lewdly.
"Little lady, hehe, come on, be happy!"
The burly Xue Fugui's ugly face was flushed with wine red, and his mouth was pouted high with bursts of wine stench, which made the girl in his arms struggle even more and screamed.
But the more she screamed, the more excited Xue Fugui felt.
"You scream, you scream, you cut your throat, and no one will come to save you, ahahaha!"
Yue Kuan, the number one master in the cottage, also came to the wine table, he was not as sloppy as the others, and went to take a bath after coming back.
Looking at the woman's desperate appearance, Yue Kuan couldn't help frowning slightly.
This bunch of rough people......
"Yue Kuan, come, come and sit next to me!"
Xue Fugui saw it and hurriedly beckoned him over.
"What the Zhou family ordered, but it was done?"
Because he wanted to talk about business, Xue Fugui pushed the woman in his arms aside, and the woman didn't dare to run, so she felt that the thieves were fierce and vicious, and she squatted in the corner and trembled.
"Well...... It's okay, it's just that the Zhao family has many shops and yards, and they haven't been able to burn down the shop. ”
Yue Kuan groaned and poured himself wine.
"What? How so! Yue Kuan, you can't do it like this! The Zhou family specially asked to burn down the shop! ”
Xue Fugui's blame, Yue Kuan didn't take it too seriously, he was originally a deserter in the army, it would be good to come here to give him a crop man, but now he has to listen to the orders of the Zhou family.
"Yue Kuan, I have to say a few words to you here, you ...... like this"
His sister's, it started again.
Yue Kuan endured Xue Fugui's unqualified ideological education work, and drank a large bowl of wine with a gloomy face.
If it weren't for the fact that he was framed by the prison army, Xue Fugui had the grace to take him in, and Yue Kuan would not have listened to him beep.
It seems that I have to find a time to leave.
On the one hand, Yue Kuan couldn't bear to loot ordinary people, and on the other hand, Yue Kuan really couldn't afford this group of rabble in his heart.
In the quiet night, all the house slaves slept, only the lamp was still lit in the ancestral hall of the Zhao family, Zhao Rui kept pulling out his gun, aiming, and then pulling out his gun, aiming......
The next day, from the morning, there were big families in the county asking to see the county order.
Yesterday's looting, this group of big families was the most seriously affected financially, and they came to the county government one after another, begging the county order to send troops to suppress the bandits.
People are almost here, including Zhou Junnan and Steward Li.
Liu Xianling said in an official tone: "Fellow villagers, for your losses yesterday, this official is deeply saddened. It's just that the Xiangyong recruited a few days ago has been sent to the front line, and my troops here are greatly insufficient! There are dozens of people in Lingshan Village, how to suppress bandits with a team of less than 20 people is just a sheep into the mouth of a tiger! ”
The bandits were so raging, Liu Xianling also wanted to exterminate them in his heart, but the contrast of strength was obvious, and he couldn't help but feel slack. Thinking that as a county magistrate, he doesn't have any industry, is a thief, as long as he doesn't come to the yamen to find trouble, what's the big deal to grab something.
When the people from the big families heard this, they all stopped doing it, and they were noisy, and some of them were even more injured, and they were even more excited.
Seeing that the form was not under control, Zhou Junnan on the side helped the county order to relieve the siege.
"Lord Liu, neighbors, I have a good idea here."
Zhou Junnan is tall and handsome, with a good demeanor, as soon as he came out, everyone was surprised.
"Zhou Gongzi, if you have any good plans, just say it!"
"Yes, our shop is going to be emptied, I want them to pay for the blood of the bandits!"
"This time we must put an end to future troubles, if the bandits come to loot again in the future, we can't stand it!"
Zhou Junnan was not affected by everyone's urging, and still had a faint appearance in his chest.
"Since our county government doesn't have enough troops, why don't we borrow it? I see that his Zhao family is prosperous, there are many nursing homes, and it is said that he still practices every day, why don't you recruit his family's nursing homes to suppress bandits? Anyway, those kunnu are sluts, and if they die, they will die! ”
Steward Li was stunned when he heard this, and secretly shouted to himself, the Zhou family is really vicious.
Using the wishes of the people, coupled with the power of the county order, to force the Zhao family to send troops, but the result is to bear the loss, no matter whether it is defeated or defeated, the power of the Zhao family will be weakened, what a great strategy!
