Chapter 111: If you don't stand up, how can you be virtuous?
At night, the bonfire in the camp was bright, and sixty young men from Dujiazhai sat neatly on the ground to rest, waiting for orders.
Dujiazhai is very quiet, they have all experienced the fight between robbers and thieves, they have seen blood, and some have even really killed people.
Xu Xian and his staff, Huang Chong and Du Yong stood in the front of the hill pack, condescending to watch the bandit group gathered under the hill pack.
The escort and the five ghosts of Rifle arch guard in the back.
Except for Huang Chong, there are a total of five people in the escort team, all of whom have experienced life and death battles. When Xu Xian recruited guards, he took into account the chaos in Yanshan County, and it was very likely that he would encounter a life-and-death fight.
I saw that in front of the foot of the hill, countless torches converged, stretching a large area.
"How many of them are there?" Xu Xian turned his head and asked Huang Chong and Du Yong.
Huang Chong couldn't answer, and Du Yong immediately said: "Between three hundred and four hundred, but they are not a group, it is estimated that they are divided into seven or eight groups, a rabble." ”
For a while, Huang Chong's old face was flushed and ashamed. As the most trusted captain of the guard around Xu Xian, he couldn't answer a simple question.
Xu Xian didn't care if Huang Chong couldn't answer, knowing that Huang Chong used to be a dart fool in the rivers and lakes, and he rarely experienced large-scale battles, his main thing was that Huang Chong was reliable, experienced in the rivers and lakes, and he could just protect his safety.
"If there are only so many robbers tonight, adults can sit back and relax." Du Yong said confidently.
Xu Xian was naturally not worried at all, he bowed his head and said, "Okay, the safety of the camp will be handed over to you tonight." ”
"My safety will be given to you." Xu Xian turned his face to take care of Huang Chong's face.
Huang Chong exclaimed gratefully, "Yes, my lord! ”
The robbers began to appear soon after nightfall, but did not attack until midnight.
It wasn't that they were hatching some earth-shattering plan, but that seven or eight bandits had gathered together to fight over the distribution of the attackers and how to divide the spoils.
After a while, the robbers finally agreed and began to attack Xiaoshanbao in earnest.
Du Yong immediately dispatched the Du family to fight and sent a team to patrol and guard the rear and the left and right sides of the pile, and the archers and hands in front of them met the robber attack in an orderly manner.
Xu Xian saw that Du Yong and Du Jiazhai were so calm and calm, and couldn't help nodding secretly in his heart: Du Jiazhai can stand tall in the decades since it fell, and multiply and grow, which is indeed outstanding.
The robbers first swarmed to attack head-on, but they didn't expect that the horse trap pit dug by Xu Xian ordered did not pit the horse, but pit many robbers.
In the dark night, although the robbers carried torches, they rushed to kill them in a swarm, not paying any attention to the situation on the ground, not to mention the simple traps were covered with a layer of weeds on the surface.
Even if you walk at night, you will fall down if you suddenly step into a two-foot-deep pit, let alone a group of people rushing to kill.
After the robbers who accidentally stepped on the horse pit fell, before they could cry out in pain, they were immediately trampled by the robbers behind them, killing and injuring more than 30 people for a while, so frightened that they thought they had encountered a ghost and hurriedly retreated.
The robbers withdrew and sent a few men to check the cause, only to find that they had stepped on a dirt pit.
The robbers breathed a sigh of relief, the earth was just a pit, and it was buried, otherwise their tried-and-true plan to storm the camp would not work.
So, the robbers immediately set about burying the pit.
However, it was impossible for Du Yong to watch the robbers bury the pit and immediately arrange for the archers to shoot and kill.
After shooting two or three robbers, the robbers did not dare to bury the pit.
After all, they are robbers, not an army, and they have no will to protect them, just for money, so no matter how the bandit leader gives the order, it is impossible to risk death to bury the pit.
Unable to attack from the front, the bandits began to attack from the left.
On the left side, there is a pile of piles that are one foot wide, and the robbers will not be able to attack without clearing them.
So, the robbers set out to clean up the fallen pile, and Du Yong immediately asked the archers to condescendingly shoot the robbers.
After dropping several corpses, the robbers had to retreat to their places.
Two successive attacks did not go well, and many people died, and when the robbers reunited to discuss, they quarreled again.
This quarrel was completely overturned, and the seven or eight bandits had no idea of attacking the hill and began to disperse in a hurry.
"My lord, these robbers are going to disperse." Du Yong reported to Xu Xian.
Xu Xian nodded, which was expected.
Du Yong regretted: "It's a pity that the horse pit blocked the robbers' attack, but it also prevented us from counterattacking." ”
"Not necessarily." Xu Xian said, and then his tone became cold, "They have too few dead, if they don't kill a group of them, where is the majesty of this official?!" ”
As he spoke, he turned to the five ghosts who had been guarding behind him and ordered, "You five immediately go down and hunt down the robbers, I want them to leave at least half of their corpses!" ”
"Yes, uncle!" The five ghosts of Laifu immediately answered loudly, and they were about to set off and rush down the mountain.
However, Xu Xian immediately stopped: "Wait! ”
The five ghosts of Laifu stopped.
"Bring knives! Kill the enemy quickly with a knife. Xu Xian said.
He was worried that the five ghosts of Laifu would use spells to kill robbers, and it would be easy to attract some mess.
The expressions of the five ghosts of Laifu moved slightly, remembering that Bai Suzhen usually told them to use less mana, and immediately responded: "Yes!" ”
Then, each of them took a long white knife and rushed down the hill to hunt down the robbers.
The five ghosts are shaped like the wind, although they don't use mana, but they are not at all what these robbers can resist, and they kill people like cutting melons for a while.
These robbers were originally a rabble, and when the five ghosts chased and killed, they resisted and wanted to fight back at first, but after being easily killed by the five ghosts, they immediately fled in fear.
The panic spread rapidly, and in the dark night, most of the robbers who didn't know the specific situation thought that Xu Xian's brigade was fighting back and chasing, and they only hated that they had grown two legs and ran away.
Therefore, the rest of the time is completely the five ghosts chasing the robbers and slaughtering them.
Du Yong stood on the mountain bag and saw the five ghosts of Laifu chasing and killing the robbers like tigers and sheep, and his heart couldn't help but be awe-inspiring.
Just now commanding Dujiazhai Qingzhuang to repel the easy robbers, which made him a little fluttering, thinking that Xu Xian could only rely on them in the future, and now seeing Xu Xian's five house slaves can kill hundreds of robbers all over the mountains and flee, which made him break out in a cold sweat on his back, and he no longer dared to be proud of his achievements.
At dawn on the second day, Xu Xian ordered Dujiazhai Qingzhuang to search for the robber corpses left last night, and cut off the heads of these robber corpses and brought them back, a total of nearly 200 heads.
"Vacate a horse-drawn cart, we will carry the heads of these robbers into Yanshan County!" Xu Xian ordered loudly.
When Shen Hao and the other staff heard this, they hurriedly persuaded: "My lord, this move hurts the peace of the heavens, and your wisdom, please think twice." ”
"This place in Yanshan County is chaotic, and it is not afraid of power. If you don't stand up, how can you be moral? Xu Xian said unwaveringly, "I have made up my mind, don't persuade me." ”
So, a horse-drawn wagon was vacated and loaded with the bandit's head. Nearly 200 heads could not be loaded on the truck, and the remaining heads could only be hung on the side of the frame. At first glance, it is very scary and terrifying.
