At sunset, Gan Xiaokun and his entourage carried a lot of prey and embarked on the road back to the water village.

Halfway through, the area is overgrown with reeds and weeds. In the middle of the road ahead, several men armed with steel knives suddenly ran out, blocking their way.

"A robber in the way?" Song Jingxiu muttered to himself, and when he looked back, he saw that the retreat behind him was also blocked.

"Not a robber." Gan Xiaokun rode on his horse and said calmly, "Isn't this my brother in the village?" ”

Apparently Gan had already recognized these people.

As soon as the words fell, many figures flashed in the grass and reeds on both sides of the road, and at a cursory glance, there were at least fifty or more people.

"Waha......" Gu Conflict, who had been walking alone at the end, burst into a burst of laughter, "It seems that my father and sister have finally made up their minds!" Gan Xiaokun, you are going to die here today! ”

"Young Master Chong, Madam has ordered, let you go back to the village immediately, and leave it to us here. Four guards, you have to escort Young Master Chong. ”

When the four guards heard this, they gathered around Gu Chong, "Young Master, let's go back first." ”

"It's a pity that I can't slaughter you with my own hands, it's a pity!" Gu Chong said arrogantly, and then pointed at Xu Jin, "You remember to bring this guy's head to me, this young master will use it to make a night pot!" With that, he left a long line of wild laughter and walked away with four guards.

After Gu Chong left, the people around him with sharp blades began to slowly move towards him.

Everyone jumped off their horses, leaning back to back on each other, nervously facing this group of murderous opponents.

"You shameless people, how much money did the Gu family give you, and you dared to ambush me! Do you have no loyalty in your heart except money? Gan Xiaokun scolded.

"Loyalty?" Someone replied, "In these days, whoever allows us to eat and drink, we will be loyal to him." ”

"That's right, bringing your heads back is loyalty to the Gu family!" Someone chimed in.

"Want to take our heads? Then it depends on whether you have the ability to do it! Song Jingxiu frowned coldly and glanced at the group of people.

"Cut them down!" With an angry shout, several steel knives flashed with cold light, and at the same time slashed towards Gan Xiaokun and the others!

Song Jingxiu shouted to Xu Jin and Hui Ze, "I'll protect Ziyun, you two can just give it a go!" ”

Gan Xiaokun's nickname of little Gan Ning is by no means in vain, in the face of the oncoming steel knife, he dodged left and right, and actually grabbed two knives.

Xu Jin and Hui Ze also kept knocking their pounced opponents to the ground; Song Jingxiu tightly protected Chen Qingzhi, punching and kicking, not letting the opponent get closer.

This group of people obviously didn't expect that Song Jingxiu, Xu Jin and Hui Ze were also people who were not inferior to Gan Xiaokun.

Even as they kept attacking, they were constantly repulsed.

Even if they have a sharp blade in their hands and the other party is unarmed, they still can't help each other.

Moreover, the opponents also won the steel knife at this time, and in the face of such an opponent, even if they are outnumbered, I am afraid that there is no chance of victory.

When they began to be afraid, when they began to realize who was the prey, when they saw the flesh and blood of their companions, they realized that it was not these few opponents who embarked on the road to Huangquan, but dozens of them.

It's too late to escape, and the opponent doesn't give them a chance to escape at all......

The sound of the blade slicing through flesh and bone filled their ears was the sound of blood spurting out, the wailing of their companion Ghost Howl, the groan of dying struggle......

Sunset didn't seem to want to witness such a tragic scene again, and completely disappeared below the horizon. There was still a glimmer of fiery red light in the sky, reflecting the blood and stumps all over the ground, dozens of corpses fell to the ground in a random manner, and the last one to stand was the one who was at an absolute disadvantage in numbers.

Gan Xiaokun raised his sleeves, wiped away the blood that was splashed all over his face, and gritted his teeth and said, "It's not a pity to die of these wolf-hearted and dog-lung things!" Then he walked up to Chen Qingzhi and said apologetically, "General Chen persuaded me to make a decision, which is my woman's kindness." I can't believe that these dog thieves will take the first step and kill me! ”

"Commander Gan, now that we have made a move, we must also fight back!" Chen Qingzhi said.

"Of course, I'm going to go back to the village now, I don't know if you can help me again?"

"It is incumbent upon us to help Commander Gan," Chen Qingzhi said, "but we are not clear about the situation in the village now, and we must not act rashly." ”

"Then does General Chen have any plans?"

"Commander Gan, take the liberty of asking, how many of your brothers in the village do you think will be on your side?"

"There are more than 3,000 brothers in the village, and I don't dare to say anything else, but most of the more than 1,000 people who have been following me since the beginning should still be loyal to me!"

"Good! Then we must mobilize these brothers, otherwise the strength of a few of us alone will be tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg. ”

"How?"

"The enemy who ambushed us is all destroyed, that is to say, at this time, the Gu family father and son are still waiting for our head in the village, we can take it by surprise, this is our chance!"

"How to be surprised?"

"We can split up and create some chaos in the village......

The moon was already high in the sky, and except for the soldiers on duty, the rest of the people in the village returned to the longhouse to rest.

The three of Gu's father and son were waiting in the house for the minions to send back the heads of Gan Xiaokun and the others.

Gu Chong paced back and forth anxiously, and kept chattering in his mouth, "It's almost time to be back, this group of waste, it's too grinding......"

Gu Shi whispered with some concern, "There won't be any problems, right?" ”

"Impossible!" Gu Chong asserted without hesitation, "Sister, there are at least fifty or sixty people you sent, right?" Gan Xiaokun There are only five of them, and they don't have swords, guns and weapons, no matter how powerful they are, can they fight ten of them at a time? ”

"The ones you picked, but they are all reliable people?" Gu Siming also asked his daughter with some concern.

"They're all reliable people!" Gu replied affirmatively, "And they are all brave outlaws......"

"Don't be careless," Gu Siming instructed Gu Chong, "Call those four guards to the house to protect us, and then let the brothers on duty be vigilant and send some more men to patrol the village." ”

"Father, it's not like that," Gu Chong said disapprehantly, "I knew you were so worried, I shouldn't have come back first, I should have been there to see their heads cut off with my own eyes, and then personally send them back to you, so that I would be at ease." ”

"If you stay there, your sister and I will be more worried!" Gu Siming reprimanded, "Go quickly, do as I tell you!" Success or failure is tonight, and there must be no carelessness. ”

The longhouse for the rest of the brothers in the village is located on the east and west sides. The brothers who had been following Gan Xiaokun were all concentrated in the old longhouse on the west side, and the new longhouse on the east side were all brothers who joined one after another.

The brothers were all in the village on weekdays, some were alone, some had wives and children, and these families moved to Jinfan Town on the other side of the river one after another, and it became a fortress like a military camp. Only after the rotation can you take two days off and spend a short time with your family.

Some of the Westinghouse brothers had already laid down to rest, while others were still chatting and laughing. At this moment, a shirtless, soaking wet, apparently just emerged from the water, dodged into the house.

When the brothers took a closer look, they realized that there was their ruler in front of them—Gan Xiaokun!

Growing up on the river since childhood, Gan Xiaokun has excellent water properties. According to Chen Qingzhi's arrangement, he sneaked into the village from the water, and then used his knowledge of the environment in the village to avoid sentry posts and patrols, and successfully came to the West House.

"Commander?" The brothers apparently didn't know what was going on, and looked at Gan Xiaokun who was wet all over his body in confusion.

"Brothers, how have I been treating you all along?" Gan Xiaokun asked sharply.

"Without a commander, there would be no us, so why don't you say it! It's just the way to dominate this look......"

"On my way back to the village, I was ambushed by the people sent by the Gu family, and those dog thieves wanted to take my head! Now that I'm back, it's up to you tonight! Would you like to help me? ”

When the brothers heard that the Gu family had sent someone to ambush the commander, they were all filled with righteous indignation, "This Gu family is so arrogant that they dare to poison the commander!" ”

"Lao Tzu has long said that their family is not a good thing, and sure enough!"

"Their gang has long been obsessed with money, what can't they do?"

"In that case, let's fight with them!"

When Gan Xiaokun saw the excitement of the brothers, he cried out loudly, "Those who are willing to follow me to kill the thief will expose your left arm!" Take up the weapons in your hands, and if anyone resists, kill them! ”

While Gan infiltrated Westinghouse, others were also in action.

Xu Jin hid in the dark, aimed at the sentry on the watchtower on the left side of the walled gate, and hit the throat with an arrow, and the sentry didn't even have time to snort, so he went to see the Lord of Yama; The sentry in the watchtower on the right was also not spared, and was shot in an instant.

Song Jingxiu and Hui Ze, who were lurking in the shadows, immediately climbed up the watchtower sensitively like wild cats and entered the village.

The two of them were alert to the movements around them, and Xu Jin also turned in at this time.

The trio bent over their waists, moving quickly in the shadows.

Their target was the room where they had rested—their weapons were still there.

Outside the guest room, they hid in a corner, and when they looked around, there were four guards guarding the gate. Song Jingxiu pointed to himself and Hui Ze, and then pointed to the bow and arrow in Xu Jin's hand, everyone understood, nodded silently, and began to act.

Song Jingxiu and Hui Ze quietly touched the corner of the wall, and when the distance was getting closer and closer, Xu Jin suddenly pulled his bow and shot a guard with one arrow.

When the other three guards were still in shock, Song Jingxiu and Hui Ze rushed over like tigers pounced, one grabbed the neck of one of the guards and twisted it, and with a crisp "click", the two guards collapsed to the ground.

At the same time, Xu Jin's second arrow was also shot, and the target was, of course, the last guard.

Xu Jin and Hui Ze quickly dragged the bodies of the four guards into the shadows and hid them, while Song Jingxiu sneaked into the room, and after a while, he came out with everyone's weapons.

Xu Jin shook his gun, and Hui Ze also took the iron rod and swiped it in his hand.

Song Jingxiu pulled out his heavy and sharp horse chopping knife, wiped the blade with his fingers, and said in a resolute tone, "Tonight, let's make a big fuss!" ”
