Chapter 49: Attack of the Bandits (2)
On the outskirts of Kunshan County, a group of people came out of the grass and gathered together.
These people all have blades in their hands, but they are not officials and soldiers, and they look like mountain bandits somewhere.
"Big brother, the brothers who entered the city are back, and the caravan left Kunshan County yesterday."
It was a man with a long knife in his hand, who looked a little thin, but his arms were thick and strong.
The leader is completely different, with a fat and generous body, if it weren't for the horizontal flesh on his face, he would look like a rich young master.
This person's name is Bao Xiong, and he is one of the leaders of the most powerful gang of thieves on the border of Xuzhou.
Bao Xiong received the news that Mi Fang had left the caravan with a few good guards, and the caravan had settled in Kunshan County.
After he arrived, he immediately sent people to find out the news, but he was not idle, and immediately led people to set up an ambush on this necessary road.
But in the end, it was a step too late.
Hearing the report of his subordinates, he immediately scolded and said, "T mother, the dog said something, if you are not sure of the authenticity of the news, you will come to lie to Lao Tzu, see how I go back to clean him up!" ”
Bao Xiong scolded, felt much more comfortable, and then waved his hand and beckoned, "Brothers, withdraw!" ”
Although everyone was unwilling, they could only leave in a huff.
originally thought that there was a big deal to do, but who thought that nothing had been done, and the depression in my heart was self-evident.
But when they were halfway there, the finder in front of them ran back.
"Big brother, there is a village in front of you, about a dozen families. It seems that a fence is being built. ”
Hearing this, Bao Xiong's eyes lit up.
The road they took was not a big road, and in order to avoid attracting the attention of the imperial court, they specially made a big circle and chose this easier path to take for the return trip.
And more than a dozen households are not big, not to mention just ordinary people, it is very convenient to rob, and leave after the robbery, as long as you are careful, no one will find their traces.
The most important thing is that the other party is building a wall, which shows that he is definitely the owner of surplus food, otherwise he can't even eat, what kind of wall is he building?
"Haha! The trade is coming, brothers, God will not let us go back empty-handed, go, go to work! ”
Bao Xiong screamed excitedly, kicked the horse's belly lightly and rushed out.
Chu Fei is not a person who drags mud and water, and since he has understood the importance of the fence, he took action as soon as possible.
Just as he gathered the group to start building the wall, there was a slight uneasiness in his heart, which made his brow furrow.
"Did you forget something?"
Hearing Chu Fei's muttering, the little earthworm jumped on his shoulder and said, "There's nothing else, what can you forget, hey, there seems to be the sound of horses' hooves, and there are quite a few people!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Chu Fei's heart jumped, and he shouted that it was not good.
His voice immediately attracted everyone's attention, and they all looked at Chu Fei nervously.
After all, it hadn't been long since the last time to suppress the bandits, and Chu Fei was suddenly going to build a wall, so they had a feeling that something was going to happen again.
Their feeling was right, only to see Chu Fei shouting and shouting to gather everyone and say, "All those who can fight go back and get weapons and come here to gather!" Hide the women and children at home and close the door, and don't come out if anything happens. ”
Suddenly, everyone panicked and ran to their homes.
Seeing such a scene, Chu Fei complained bitterly in his heart.
It's a mess, and it looks like it's not just the walls, it's the guards that have to be speeded up.
At the very least, we have to gather a ten-person squad to start training, so that it will not be as chaotic as it is now.
Chu Fei felt very lucky, and praised the earthworm in his heart.
Although he is a human soul, he is the body of a cat, and although the water content is extremely high, he has what a cat should have, and he also has what he does not have.
Although the cat's hearing is not as good as that of a dog, it is much stronger than that of a human, giving him plenty of time to prepare.
Sure enough, when everyone hurriedly assembled, the sound of horses' hooves had already reached their ears, and a group of bandits rushed towards this side with smoke and dust.
"Big brother, someone!"
One of the bandits had excellent eyesight, and immediately saw the assembled crowd and immediately reported to Bao Xiong.
When Bao Xiong heard this, he saw a group of people standing there, and he didn't know what they were doing, and his heart was shocked.
'Was it discovered?' ’
The idea was fleeting, and he immediately rejected it.
How could a small village of more than a dozen families find them.
What's more, even if he found out, judging from his many years of experience, he would have been so frightened that he would have hid a long time ago, how could he still gather.
As it turned out, he had been slapped in the face, and when he got closer, he found that the villagers, who had always been timid and fearful, were standing there with their swords in hand, as if they were facing jackals, tigers and leopards, looking at them vigilantly.
Bao Xiong vaguely felt a kind of uneasiness in his heart, that was an uneasiness about the unknown.
But he is already here, if he just takes people away like this, then he will not have to mix with it from now on. Who would want to mess around with a big brother who is as timid as a mouse?
He clapped his horse forward, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and shouted, "Which of you is in charge, stand up!" ”
Hearing this, Chu Fei sneered and stood up, and asked unkindly, "I don't know what you are doing when you come to my Kunlun Village?" ”
Bao Xiong was slightly stunned when he saw Chu Fei, not because of Chu Fei's fearless expression, but because of his age.
A young man who seemed to be only about twenty years old was the person with the highest voice here, which was far beyond his expectations.
"Little baby, what you say counts?"
"Nature." Chu Fei said.
Seeing that Chu Fei was young, Bao Xiong's worries disappeared in an instant, and his confidence was full again.
"Heh, Lao Tzu is here to rob today, I don't want to kill people, let your people fuck me out, or I won't be left in the village!"
Chu Fei pursed his lips when he heard this, and muttered in a low voice, "It's such an old-fashioned opening sentence again, it's not vulgar." ”
Seeing that Chu Fei didn't want to pay attention to himself, Bao Xiong was immediately furious.
This time there were quite a few people who came, eighty of them, and twenty horses.
The other side is nothing more than a group of civilians, and the number is only a dozen, and it only takes a charge of cavalry to solve it.
But he really didn't want to do it directly, after all, the other party also had weapons in his hands, and if it was difficult to fight, no one would be hurt.
"Little baby, don't give you a shame, Lao Tzu doesn't kill you if you ask for money, honestly hand over the money to buy peace, do you think you can stop me with a dozen of you?"
Bao Xiong was reluctant to fight, and Chu Fei was even more reluctant.
Seeing that so many people on the other side were still cavalry, even if they won the battle, they would suffer heavy casualties, and the foundation that had just improved would be destroyed in an instant.
Seeing that the other party didn't mean to be desperate, Chu Fei's heart moved and an idea rose.
