Chapter 12: The Great Victory 1
Zhang Shihua did not act rashly, but was loose on the outside and tight on the inside, still training as before on the surface, and secretly not only let the Inspection Division stand guard late at night, but also let a small team of people from the Inspection Department secretly guard the two entrances of the town during the day, paying attention to the strangers who came to the town these days, and Li Lizheng was also very cooperative to help Zhang Shihua find out the news, not only that, but also provided a large amount of meat to the Inspection Division for free to supplement the consumption of the Inspection Division.

In the first twenty days, Zhang Shihua has already handed over all the things that can be taught to the archers of the inspection department, and the next training is similar to the first ten days, the same is physical training, but it is more rigorous, the amount of training is greater, the archers not only have to thorn the tree, but also the amount of various training has increased by three percent.
Seven days have passed, the town is still calm, everyone's originally tense nerves have relaxed again, and Li Lizheng is no longer as nervous and anxious as the previous two days.
This is the eighth day of emergency preparations, where are these damn bandits dead, why is there no news at all, Zhang Mingtong, who is Brother Lu, sat in a teahouse on the north side of the town and complained secretly.
Zhang Mingtong is the captain of the second squad of the inspection department, and today is the day when they patrol and investigate in the town, but it has been several days, and there is still no trace of the bandits, which can't help but make Zhang Mingtong secretly anxious, you must know that the four of them are not as afraid of the bandits as other archers, they want the bandits to come, if they can exterminate this group of bandits, the inspector will be more supported by the family, and the benefits that their adult cronies can get will naturally be greater.
But are these fearless bandits afraid of the inspection department of Yangshui Town, so many days have passed, and there is no news that the bandits are coming, so Zhang Mingtong, who is waiting for the bandits, is extremely anxious.
When Zhang Mingtong was depressed, an archer from the inspection department suddenly ran outside, and the archer saw Zhang Mingtong and others sitting in the teahouse, and hurriedly walked over and said: Captain, we just found a merchant who behaved strangely.
Zhang Mingtong was shocked when he heard the archer's words, and asked: Tell me in detail what is going on.
The captain came to a merchant from other places in the town this morning, and we followed the orders of the inspector to secretly observe him, and the more he observed, the more he felt that something was wrong with the merchant, and the merchant shouted and bought and sold one step at a time, and did not walk the streets and alleys, but kept circling around the wall of the big house in the town, and I found that something was wrong, so I came to ask the captain.
Zhang Mingtong heard the words of this archer, thought for a moment and said: You continue to follow secretly, but remember not to be discovered by the merchant, I will go and inform the adults of this matter now, and in the meantime, you must not act without authorization.
The archer bowed his head and said yes, and departed.
And Zhang Mingtong also left the teahouse and walked towards the school grounds.
Zhang Shihua said after listening to Brother Lu's report Zhang Mingtong: Brother Lu, you are doing a good job, it seems that the gang of bandits came here to step on the spot, and I have been waiting for so long but finally came.
Then Zhang Shihua gathered the archers trained on the school field and brought them back to the inspection department, so as not to be seen by the merchant and startled away the group of bandits.
The merchant not only went to the residences of various big families in the town, but also stayed outside the inspection department for a long time, and saw that the inspection department was only two old men guarding the door, so he did not pay much attention to the inspection department, and at noon the merchant left the town and went to the northwest.
And Zhang Shihua is to let the archers stop all training, recuperate and wait for the arrival of the evening, the archers have been training for almost a month, the archers have three meals a day at the beginning of the training, Zhang Shihua is not only to supplement the nutrition of the archers, but also to treat the night blindness of the archers, and now the fifty archers of the inspection department can see at night like ordinary people, so Zhang Shihua is not afraid of night battles at all.
At night, we must let those robbers come and go, Zhang Shihua thought to himself.
At seven or eight o'clock in the evening, Zhang Shihua quietly went out of the inspection department with all the archers of the inspection department, and took advantage of the moonlight, Zhang Shihua and others came to a forest next to the road north of the town.
Everyone in the inspection department was dressed in black, and they were very careful when they acted, and the moonlight was not bright, so no one noticed Zhang Shihua and the others at all.
Zhou Tie held the spear in his hand tightly, because of nervousness Zhou Tie's palms were full of sweat, in fact, this morning, Zhou Tie already felt unusual, because the inspector canceled the afternoon training and let them rest in the inspection department, but the inspector didn't say anything at that time.
When everyone finished dinner in the afternoon, the inspector said that he would go out to ambush and suppress the bandits, Zhou Tie and the others took their weapons and ambushed in this forest under the leadership of the inspector, Zhou Tie didn't know how the inspector Zhang knew that the bandits would pass by, but Zhou Tie believed in the words of the inspector very much, this nearly a month of training, Zhou Tie more and more revered the inspector, since the lord said that the bandits would come, then the bandits might really come.
Zhou Tie waited nervously and anxiously for more than an hour, and suddenly heard the inspector say: "It's quiet, the people we are waiting for are coming."
Zhou Tie and the other archers closed their mouths one by one when they heard this, and held the spear in their hands tightly, but the breathing on their noses still increased involuntarily, and their hearts beat faster and faster.
Zhou Tie looked to the north but didn't see anyone coming, but after about ten minutes, Zhou Tie heard the sound of the carriage and the footsteps of the crowd.
Zhang Shihua also heard the sound in the night, thinking that these people really came, in fact, Zhang Shihua can't be 100% sure that the bandits will pass by tonight, he is just based on the information of the bandits in his hands, first of all, the bandits' spies went to the northwest after stepping on the point in Yangshui Town, and secondly, the bandits brought a carriage when they attacked Dawang Township, which was used to carry the looted property, and there were carriages in the north, so they could only pass through the big road north of Yangshui Town, because other roads and carriages could not pass at all, That's why Zhang Shihua let the archers ambush here.
These thoughts just turned in Zhang Shihua's mind, Zhang Shihua put this inappropriate idea behind him, and then he did not continue to lead people to ambush in the woods, but took the archers out of the woods and lined up on the road to wait for the bandits to come.
As soon as the archers of the Inspection Division lined up, the robbers who were preparing to attack Yangshui Town at night also appeared.
When the archers of the Inspection Division saw the robbers, the robbers also saw the archers, only to see that the robbers stopped, and the two sides confronted each other silently on the main road.
Unlike the early preparation and foresight of the Inspection Division, the robbers on the opposite side all had a helpless expression, Zhang Shihua did not immediately order an attack, and the robbers on the opposite side did not know what was happening yet.
However, these robbers are worthy of being old bandits, although they were a little surprised when they saw Zhang Shihua, they immediately took their weapons and prepared for battle, and at this time, an elite man who seemed to be the leader walked out of the crowd and said loudly: I don't know why the brother on the other side is blocking our way?
Zhang Shihua did not answer the big man's question, but stood in the front row and shouted: Everyone attack, kill them all.
Hearing Zhang Shihua's words, the big man immediately retreated into the crowd, pulled out the big knife on his waist and shouted loudly: Brothers, kill all this group of people who don't want to die.
The two sides began to act almost at the same time, the difference was that the archers of the Inspection Division were in a column of eighteen people, and fifty-four people were in a total of three columns, all of them holding spears and marching at a neat pace, while the robbers were brandishing various weapons and rushing towards them loudly and roaring.
This battle was also the first time in Zhang Shihua's life, he and the archers around him had never killed anyone, so when Zhang Shihua saw the robbers on the opposite side rushing over, it was false to say that he was not afraid or nervous.
Zhang Shihua obviously felt that his heartbeat was getting faster and faster, and the sweat on his hands was getting more and more, Zhang Shihua didn't want to take risks, the archers of the inspection department were trained by him, so their first battle Zhang Shihua had to go, and they had to stand at the front, the archers only saw Zhang Shihua there, and saw that their inspectors were also fighting side by side with them, so that they had the courage and confidence to face the robbers.
At the same time, Zhang Shihua also firmly believes in the archers around him, and firmly believes that this battle will be won.
When the two sides lined up, they were only more than a hundred meters apart, and this distance was only a few breaths for the two warring sides, and the thoughts in Zhang Shihua's mind passed in an instant, and the robbers on the opposite side also rushed over.
The distance between the two sides is getting closer and closer, Zhang Shihua can even see the other party's mouth full of yellow teeth, and there are about two dozen people in the front of the robbers, and two of them even rushed straight towards Zhang Shihua.
When the robbers rushed to the archers of the inspection department, they raised their weapons in both hands one by one, their eyes were full of ferocity, and their mouths roared loudly, as if they were a group of wild beasts that had chosen to devour people, and the cruel expression on their faces was as if they had seen the enemy on the opposite side being slashed to death by themselves.
And Zhang Shihua also leaned forward slightly at this time and shouted: Thorn! Kill!
said that it was too late, Zhang Shihua's spear stabbed into it with all Zhang Shihua's strength, and the chest of a robber who was about to attack him on the opposite side tore open the man's body in an instant, and the sharp spear head came out of the body.
Blood splashed everywhere, but the blood did not make the robber on the opposite side flinch, and the other robber took advantage of Zhang Shihua's gun, holding a big knife with both hands and slashing at Zhang Shihua, but like his companions, he had not yet cut Zhang Shihua, and Zhang Shihua stabbed a spear on his side and pierced him.
Zhang Shihua took the opportunity to pull out the spear, and the blood brought out by the spear splashed Zhang Shihua's body, Zhang Shihua did not pay attention to the blood on his body, but held the spear with both hands and stabbed at another robber, and shouted loudly: Kill!
Everyone in the Inspection Department seemed to have forgotten their fears, they only knew that they subconsciously obeyed Zhang Shihua's orders and stabbed the bodies of these bandits with the spears in their hands like thorn trees.
For a moment, the roar of the archers' red eyes, the sound of the wind as their spears stabbed, and the screams of the robbers made one feel like they were in hell.
The robbers failed to rush forward, and the dense array of guns cut off all their life before the robbers could attack.
It seemed like a long time had passed and it seemed like it was just a moment, and when Zhang Shihua calmed down, there was no cruel expression of the robber in front of him, and only twenty screaming dying people who were lying in a pool of blood and struggling.
The world seemed to be silent, and the only sounds were the screams of the robbers lying on the ground and the ticking of blood dripping from the tips of their guns, so loud that they could be heard even in the screams and wails.
The remaining thirty robbers on the opposite side looked like they were stupid, staring at everything in front of them with their mouths wide open, forgetting to roar or even forgetting to clench their weapons in their hands, and letting them fall to the ground.
The sound of the weapons coming into contact with the ground seemed to awaken them, and they screamed, shouted, and ran backwards, their voices full of fear, as if they had seen a demon.
At this time, Zhang Shihua also reacted, Zhang Shihua did not let those people leave like this, but took the archers to pursue.
At first, it was Zhang Shihua and they still maintained the formation, but in the end, the formation was completely scattered, but it didn't matter, because the robbers on the opposite side had already been frightened and didn't have the courage to fight back at all.
Half an hour later, Zhang Shihua came back with the archers and the captured robbers, plus the more than 20 robbers who were captured this time, less than ten robbers escaped, and they were all frightened, and there would be no more threats.
When the archers returned here with the tied captives, they saw the corpses on the ground, and one of the archers suddenly bent over and vomited, which seemed to cause a chain reaction, and almost all of the archers bent over and vomited, even Zhang Shihua couldn't hold back.
The robbers stared at the archers who were bending over and vomiting, and a few of them suddenly burst into tears, they couldn't believe that they had lost to a group of yellow-haired boys who had just entered the battle.
