Chapter 58: Beauty Saves Heroes
I really guessed correctly on the weekend, and the drunkard I met at the inn was the eyeliner of Qinglongzhai, the largest local robber gang, in the inn, specifically to inquire about the news.
On the weekend, I rushed all the way from the palace, and before I had time to change my clothes, my eyeliner found that he was wearing, although it was dusty, but the materials were gorgeous, and he looked like a rich man.
The delicate eyeliner was afraid that he would find out his identity, so he deliberately pretended to be a drunkard yesterday, and took the opportunity to touch his carry-on bag with his own hands when he was drunk, so as to learn that he not only had soft clothes inside, but also a lot of hard silver.
In order not to make him suspicious, the eyeliner deliberately did not approach him again afterwards, until he saw him get on the horse and hurry the next day, and then according to his whereabouts, he delivered the news to the head of his gang.
The man in front of the eyeliner is Hu Yong, the head of the robber gang.
He has been on the Tao for some time, and he is mercenary.
The cavalry behind him was not a team formed by ordinary mountain people, but was originally a regular army in the Tang Army.
During the Anshi Rebellion, money, food, and rice were in short supply in various places, and some local generals withheld military salaries to death, which was the case in the barracks where Hu Yong was at that time.
More than half a year ago, he took the lead, together with a group of hungry brothers in the same battalion, directly designed to kill the quartermaster, according to the geographical advantage of Qinglong Mountain as the main road that merchants must pass through, went to Qinglong Mountain to build Qinglong Village, and fell into the grass as a robber.
Compared with other small robber teams, Qinglongzhai is very organized, disciplined, and has strong force, and the family members and guards in the general business travel team in the past can't do them at all, at first some victims also naively tried to make friends with them, reasoned, and gave small favors, and later found that these tricks were useless, and the rules of their robbery were "either die, or hand over all their belongings." These people are afraid, they are afraid of them, they can make a detour, and if they can't detour, they invite a big dart team to escort them, and at the same time spread their ruthless deeds everywhere, resulting in no business travel to Qinglong Mountain in the past two months.
Fortunately, there was a weekend, otherwise, in a few days, they would not be able to open the pot.
Even if Zhou Ben was still dozens of meters away from Hu Yong, he could clearly see how greedy and surprised everyone in their team was looking at him, obviously treating himself as a little fat sheep to be slaughtered.
He was unfamiliar with the place, and he couldn't think of any other way to deal with it for a while, so he could only rush to Xu Xu to make a look, and quickly chase after the peasant robbers who had just left and were about to find a place to drink.
It's a pity that Hu Yong and others' horses are not as good as ordinary horses, they are all first-class war horses, although the horses of Zhou Zhou and Xu go are from the palace, they are ordinary horses that are mainly used by the princess to travel and pull incense, and their physical fitness is far inferior to that of the other party.
Soon, just as they caught up with the peasant robbers over the weekend, Hu Yong and others had already caught up.
On the weekend, he was in a hurry, and hurriedly shouted at the farmer robbers: "Big brothers, no, someone is coming to rob you of your money!" Give them the money you just took from me, or you'll be in trouble!" ”
"Just kidding, the people of their Qinglong Village dare to rob us of our money? We know where their dens are, and if they dare to rob them, we will notify the government to encircle and suppress them! The young farmer at the head also noticed that Hu Yong and the others were catching up, and immediately pulled the reins, turned his head and rushed back to the weekend with a loud tone.
"Oh, that's it, then I'm relieved!" Thinking that the peasant robbers should be able to deal with Hu Yong and the others for a while, he turned around and glanced at Xu Tou, rode past the peasant robbers, and headed towards the village in front.
Anyway, you have to find a place to hide first, the village in front of you looks very big, and there are many houses, so it is good to find someone to hide or find someone to ask for directions, change the way, and avoid Hu Yong and others.
It's just that he hadn't gone far before he heard a tight "ahhh......h
He looked back curiously and found that Hu Yong and the others were actually holding their war knives and slashing at the heads of those peasant robbers!
Those peasant robbers are ordinary croppers, and they are obviously undefensive against Hu Yong, many farmers who move slowly, their bodies don't have time to get out of the way, and their heads have been cut off by them first, and some of the relatively fast ones only have time to dodge, and they don't have time to pull out the swords they are carrying, and they have no power to fight back.
Suddenly, the sword light, the blood shadow, and the screams were as tight as a burst.
It all came so quickly and so suddenly.
Crossing over the weekend to the Tang Dynasty is the third time.
But he had never seen such a bloody and cruel side.
Today, let him see it!
This damned, evil old society, a terrible time when people could be killed for a little money!
On the weekend, you can imagine what fate it will be if you are caught up by Hu Yong and others.
He didn't have time to grieve for the peasant robbers, let alone pay attention to their miserable situation, so he could only grit his teeth, clamp the horse's legs and stomachs, and continue to run desperately towards the village, while losing no time in shouting: "Help, help, the robbers are here!" Many of the villagers and brothers have been killed by them! ”
"Sample, in addition to pulling people to make backs, what else will you do? Could it be that the body of the half-immortal you cultivated doesn't even have the strength to fight against these rabble? In the distance, a shadow who was riding a horse and chasing after Hu Yong and the others heard the shouts of the weekend, which was angry and funny.
This person is none other than the county lord Suyuan who rushed over with the guards to chase the weekend.
She glanced at the embarrassed figure who was fleeing for her life on the weekend, and then at the figure of several Qinglongzhai robbers who tried to chase the weekend, her expression was slightly cold, she took out a feather arrow from the quiver behind her, pulled the bow that she had already pinched in her hand, and shot at one of the robbers.
There was a "whoosh", and the sound followed by the arrow, and in an instant, it shot accurately into the chest of the robber who was chasing the weekend in the front, and he fell down before he could cry out in pain.
The county lord of Suyuan was very satisfied with his archery skills, a light smile appeared on his face, and he calmly shot the second, third, and fourth arrows one after another at the remaining Qinglongzhai robbers who were chasing the weekend......
However, the people of the farmer robber team were not at all the opponents of the Qinglongzhai robbers led by Hu Yong, and when the county lord of Suyuan shot the seventh Qinglongzhai robber who chased towards the weekend, the remaining Qinglongzhai robbers had already killed all the farmer robbers.
Hu Yong asked people to count the money and belongings on the peasant robbers, and found that they had no gold or silver at all, except for a few copper plates.
He immediately realized that he had been deceived by the weekend, and ordered the rest of the people to deal with the county lord Suyuan, who had already caught up with the guards at this time, and he himself took two cronies and continued to chase the weekend.
The county lord of Suyuan couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
Bows and arrows are suitable for long-range shooting, not for close attacks, not to mention that she was able to successfully shoot those Qinglongzhai robbers who chased the weekend before, not only because she was good at archery, but more importantly, because she shot far from behind people, and people were not defended at all, so they didn't have time to dodge.
The robbers of Qinglongzhai who were now left behind by Hu Yong to deal with her were not only in a face-to-face position with her, very close to her, and it was not suitable to shoot them with bows and arrows, but these guys also obviously saw that she and several of her guards were extraordinary masters, and one by one was not in a hurry to attack them, but under the leadership of one of the thin men, they formed a formation, surrounded them, trapped them, and made them unable to escape.
