Chapter 058: Beacon Flame Burst 3
"Pull them away, pull them away!"
This kind of scene is shocking, Yuan Lang looked at it and felt furious in his heart, he had heard of people eating people, and today he can be regarded as insightful. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Haha, haha......"
"Phew, even if you kill us, it won't be long before all of you in the city will bury us!!"
"Strong, strong, haha......"
The remaining five people, none of them survived, they hit the wall against the wall, touched each other's skulls, bit their tongues, all of them were not Yuan Lang's hands, but cut off their own lives.
This kind of ending was something Yuan Lang never expected, why these people are so heroic, Yuan Lang still can't give himself a convincing explanation.
"Husband!"
Zhang Ning has been standing behind Yuan Lang, although she is her daughter's family, she has experienced this kind of murderous scene much more than Yuan Lang, so she doesn't see any discomfort at all.
Yuan Lang appeased Zhang Ning, and then settled down, he first asked his subordinates to move all the corpses in the house outside the house, and burned them with the bodies of the villagers and the killed bandits, and then he calmed down and thought about it, although this battle was a victory, but the main force of the bandit gang has not been annihilated, they were surprised this time but only achieved such results, it is conceivable that this group of bandits is not as simple as Yuan Lang thought before, even more combative than his own soldiers, and dare to die, Especially that kind of combat ability, if they are enlisted sergeants, they do not praise this group of bandits at all.
Yuan Lang knew that the bandits of this generation in Changshan County should be Longhu Village, but Longhu Village had already returned to the imperial court, and none of the faces he saw just now were from Longhu Village.
It's not that a problem, if it's not the people of Longhu Village, then where did this group of people come from, and there are hundreds of people, all of them seem to be generous to death, this kind of bandit is probably difficult to find it all over the country.
Just when Yuan Lang was distressed about this matter, he only saw a few people walking in from the crowd outside the house, these people Yuan Lang was familiar with it for a while, they were none other than the few people Yuan Lang knew in Zhaojiazhuang, one of them was Zhao Yun and Zhao Feng's father, when he first entered Changshan County, the old man who was rescued from Longhu Village outside the county, and several other old men who were also present at the time.
"If it's really the county keeper who saved us, folks, come and thank the county keeper for saving your life!"
These old men are undoubtedly a few of the most prestigious in Zhaojiazhuang, and when they knelt down, the people outside the house all knelt down one after another, shouting "Thank you for saving your life."
"Uncle Zhao, please get up, all the old gentlemen, folks, please get up!" Yuan Lang helped up the kneeling old men in front of him, and then took these old men and Zhang Ning to the outside of the house, and said to the villagers who had gathered: "Fellow villagers, this official is incompetent, I didn't have time to rescue your dead relatives, I will make amends to you!" ā
Yuan Lang was about to kneel when he said that, not to mention that the villagers shouted "Don't be like this, adults", and even his subordinates Huang Long and Bai Bo also stood up to Yuan Lang alone, for fear of making a joke about his parents and officials kneeling down to the people in the land.
But Yuan Lang is not pretentious, although Zhaojiazhuang survived, but in the previous villages, they were burned and robbed by bandits because of their poor protection, which is an eternal pain in Yuan Lang's heart.
Yuan Lang ignored everyone's opposition, he insisted on kneeling down for everyone present.
The villagers and soldiers didn't dare to take it, they knelt down one after another, and the scene got out of control for a while.
After blaming himself, Yuan Lang got up, he comforted the suffering villagers, and then sent a message, the villagers who were seriously affected or felt unsafe, but followed back to Changshan County to take refuge, and when the bandits were completely eliminated, everyone could come back.
For this suggestion, the villagers who had long been frightened expressed their approval, and they each returned home to pack up and prepare to follow Yuan Lang's army back to the county town.
The villagers dispersed one after another, and Yuan Lang immediately ordered Huang Long and Bai Bo to count the cavalry they had brought, calculate the number of casualties, and summarize the battle.
"Report Huang Shuai, fifty-four people were injured, three people died, all the staff are here, please give Huang Shuai an order!"
After listening to Huang Long's report, Yuan Lang immediately ordered Huang Long to go ahead, and Bai Bo to take refuge in the city with the villagers who were willing to return to the city with them for refuge.
But there are still some older villagers who stayed, and this is what Yuan Lang only knew halfway through, these old people are probably tired of running for their lives, and even if they die, they want to die in their hometown.
Yuan Lang gave understanding of this situation, not to mention that the pressure on the county town is also very great now, there are so many suffering people for no reason, and it will not be able to settle for a while and a half, and the cost of three meals, cold and warmth, and the construction of temporary shelters are all issues that must be considered.
"Someone...... Send a message to the two generals Huang Long and Bai Bo, and ask them to increase the number of scouts tenfold, I want to know clearly the security situation of all the villages in the territory, as well as the traces of those bandits, the sooner the better! ā
"Yes!"
Yuan Lang gave a military order, this is a move he must take, even if he wants to exterminate those bandits, first you have to know where the other party is.
Moreover, these villages scattered outside the county town are also on Yuan Lang's mind, if there is another incident like Yaotou Village, I am afraid that he, the county guard, will also be unstable.
Just as Yuan Lang was marching, suddenly, a black shadow came out of the bushes on the side of the road, and the black shadow approached, and everyone saw that the clothes were all too familiar, it was the outfit of the group of bandits.
Zhang Ning, who was beside Yuan Lang, saw the black shadow coming towards Yuan Lang, and before everyone could react, she immediately took the bow and arrow from the shoulders of the cavalry beside her, and the arrow was wound and was about to shoot out.
Yuan Lang grabbed Zhang Ning's hand and said busily: "Stop, it seems that you are still your own person!" ā¦ā¦ Zhou Liang, you went to take a look! ā
Zhou Liang has been by Yuan Lang's side, and after listening to the order, he hurriedly drove his horse to catch up, and then shouted: "My lord, it's Zhou Qiang...... Good you kid, what are you wearing badly, if you don't wear this shit, I almost hurt you by mistake! ā
"Your Excellency, Your Excellency...... It's the villain Zhou Qiang! ā
The person who came was really Zhou Qiang, who was sent by Yuan Lang to Zhaojiazhuang to monitor Zhao Yun's family, Yuan Lang was still hesitating just now why he didn't see this kid, but now he actually came here.
Fortunately, Yuan Lang's eyes were sharp, just thinking that Zhou Qiang's black shadow appeared, otherwise even if Zhang Ning's arrow killed him, the soldiers near Yuan Lang who realized it later would have stepped forward to cut Zhou Qiang into meat sauce.
"Zhou Qiang, where did you come from, dressed like this?"
Yuan Lang was also very curious, so he asked Zhou Qiangdao.
Zhou Qiang swallowed his saliva, and then said: "My lord, the villain wanted to go back to the county town to repair, but he didn't expect to meet a group of bandits when he passed through Yaotou Village, the villain had nothing to do, and it was too late to run back to report to the adult, so the villain had an idea, and remembered that there was a beacon tower on the mountain when he was playing in this section when he was a child, so the villain went to light it, hoping that the adult or the general in the city could see it!" ā
"It turned out to be you kid who had an accident in Yaotou Village and lit the beacon fire, well done!" Yuan Lang said again, "Then why are you dressed like this, do you want to avoid the eyes and ears of those bandits?" ā
Zhou Qiang stepped onto a horse that Yuan Lang found for him, and then said in parallel with Yuan Lang: "If you go back to the adult, the villain is an escape from death." At that time, the villain lit a beacon fire, and soon the robbers in Yaotou Village came up a few people to catch the villain, and the villain was afraid to move and hid in the cracks of the rocks, and those bandits wanted to extinguish the fire but couldn't extinguish it, and they wanted to find the villain but couldn't see the figure. They couldn't find the villain and began to shout, and then the villain listened to the clamor getting farther and farther, presumably going far, so he dared to come out, but as soon as he came out, he saw more than a dozen villagers being chased to the mountain of the beacon tower......"
