Chapter 124: Robbery
The next day, it was ten miles away from the north gate of Guangzhou.
At this time, the sun is shining, some is hot, some are sunning, the air is reverberating with the sound of birds and insects, and the breeze slowly blows through the canopy grass, bringing wave after wave of green waves. The temperature is getting higher and higher, and the heat wave is blowing in the face, rolling and tumbling.
Here, a road leads straight to the north and south, and the end disappears into the mountain woods, and on both sides are towering mountains, and there are clumps of weeds everywhere, and the height of one person is extremely dense, which is very conducive to personnel hiding in it and ambushing.
Soon, the sound of horses' hooves and the sound of cars coming from the back of the road gradually approached the place. Suddenly, a whisper sounded in the grass more than ten meters away from the road on one side, and the sound was very quiet.
"Everyone be careful, pay attention to the bird gun in your hand, hang up the insurance, and you are not allowed to shoot without my order."
"Listen, the target is almost here, from now on, keep silent, don't make a sound, and then do it when my guns sound."
Then the sound died down again, drowning in the grass, and everything was calm again, still the same as before, unchanged.
At the same time, I saw a shadow appear in the north, and gradually drove in, and a group of people and horses appeared, more than a dozen people, more than half of them holding bird guns. However, these people were all dressed as ordinary guys in ordinary shops, and none of them were wearing military uniforms or government uniforms, which was very strange.
Ordinary merchants transport goods, and it is impossible to have a bird in hand to protect the safety of goods. Even if it is the escort of goods by officials and businessmen, the accompanying personnel holding bird guns must wear uniforms and show their identities. Otherwise, it is illegal possession of bird guns, which will be investigated by the authorities and the goods will be confiscated.
A dozen people, seven wagons, each with a high pile of goods. From the deep ruts of the carriage past and the three horses pulling a cart, it can be seen that the goods on each cart were very heavy, and the backs of each horse were wet with sweat and panting with exhaustion.
The guys on the carriage talked to each other, laughing at each other, meat and vegetarian meat were not taboo, and jokes were repeated.
"Hey~ I said brothers, this time to escort the goods back, do you think our boss will give more commercial silver, this hot day is really unbearable."
"Who knows? However, I don't want to do that right now, I just want to go back early, take a good shower, and sleep comfortably. I'm on the road every day, and I haven't slept well for days. ”
"Come on, I see that you don't want to go home to take a bath and sleep, but to miss the girls at home, think about her fragrant body, what is that~~"
"Ha~Ha~"
Immediately, everyone burst into laughter. As soon as it comes to women, the others immediately come to their senses, joke and become naughty, and their words have no scruples, full of debauchery and amorousness.
"I said, you haven't been home for a few days, I guess your mother-in-law is also dry, so anxious to go back, I guess you're not at ease~"
"I agree with this brother's words, what he said is very reasonable, there is a great possibility, brother, you have to go home and interrogate your mother-in-law and aunt~, check and check"
More than a dozen people bragged about cowhides, talked about the mountains, talked about idle stories, hurried the road unhurriedly, sat in the carriage, in the heat, more leisurely, more fun, so that the original boring journey was no longer boring, less restless, and the heart rate was uncertain.
However, the boring escort of goods is no longer boring, which also means that these personnel have relaxed their vigilance, thinking that they are about to reach their destination and that there is no danger. Unbeknownst to them, they are approaching danger step by step, towards the abyss of death, towards a path of no return.
Just as they were chatting passionately and were about to reach a climax, there were bursts of gunfire, and in an instant, several people were shot by bullets, blood splattered, and they died, turning into cold corpses, and the others instantly turned to ashes, and rolled off the carriage and hid under the carriage.
"Dada!"
The guns still roared, and bullets flew out of the grass, shuttled through the air, instantly submerged into the dirt, and shot into the belly of the horses, and in an instant, twenty-one horses spat blood from their mouths, and immediately fell to the ground and died, and the corpses were still trembling and trembling, and the moans gradually weakened until they disappeared, and their eyes slowly closed.
At the same time, as the horse was frightened before, and the carriage was taken out of the distance, the men who rolled to the ground were exposed to the muzzle of the gun, and with the continuous bullets fired, several more personnel lay down forever, their faces still showing panic and fear.
The remaining men watched as most of their companions died in a short period of time, looking for cover from large rocks while braving the hail of bullets and shouting.
"We surrender!"
"We surrender!"
However, they were only responded to by bullets, still gunshots. Seeing this, knowing that the other party didn't want to stay alive, he immediately rose up and resisted, and put the gun aimlessly, just in one direction, where the gunfire suddenly appeared.
Dada!
Whether it was begging for mercy or resisting, it had no effect, and it still changed the outcome of the death, but it was only delayed for a while and a half, and in the end all the men who escorted the goods were wiped out, none of them survived, and the corpses were scattered everywhere.
The shootout lasted less than ten minutes before it ended, and it was completely a crushing of one side against the other, a merciless slaughter. The reason why it is said to be crushed is not only because of the sudden attack, but also because it is in the firearms, and the equipment of the two is not at the same level at all. When the guys fired back, the bullet slowed down halfway through, and finally fell to the ground weakly.
Everything was calm again, but the air was filled with a strong smell of blood, and there were a dozen corpses and twenty-one dead horses lying on the road.
After another quarter of an hour, there was no movement of the corpse on the ground. At this moment, a group of masked people, thirty or forty people, appeared in the grass where the gunshots had just been fired, and immediately dispersed, each holding a series of beads and a vigilant posture, and slowly walked towards the bodies of those dead guys. However, the calmness and vigilance in their movements could not hide their pale foreheads and the nervousness.
Although the pace of each masked person was small, the frequency was fast, and in just a few minutes, they approached the dead people in a fan-shaped encirclement. Eventually, after the masked men confirmed that all the men were dead, one of them made a gesture of safety.
Then, a few more masked people came out of the grass just now, and quickly walked towards the carriages.
All the masked people gathered around several carriages, and at this moment, a masked man stepped forward, pulled out a dagger from his waist, and cut open the sack in an instant, and when the contents appeared, his eyes immediately flashed with excitement. At the same time, the masked man pulled his mask and shouted with laughter: "Haha, as expected, it is the piece of iron, and this time there is no shortage of raw materials for making machine guns and mortars in a short time!" ”
The masked man was Yang Lin, who was doing the act of killing people and overselling goods at this time, without the slightest shame, and his face was full of pride and joy to get the goods. Then, with a wave of his hand, he shouted again: "Listen, everyone, bury these bodies quickly, erase all traces, and prepare to retreat!" ”
However, no one responded to Yang Lin's order, and instead there was a burst of vomiting sound coming from behind him.
Turning his head, there was a trace of anger on Yang Lin's face, which flashed and disappeared, and turned into a color of understanding. I saw that the soldiers brought out by Yang Lin from the inside of his followers had already torn off their masks at this time, or bowed down, or squatted, all vomiting non-stop, and the yellow water in their stomachs was about to vomit out.
Yang Lin can understand them, after all, it is the first time to kill, and this situation will inevitably occur. Therefore, this is also Yang Lin's order to continue shooting regardless of the cries and begs for mercy of those guys, to exercise the mental quality of these soldiers and prepare for future battles.
Since experiencing the battle of Kongtong Mountain, Yang Lin believes that a soldier who has not been stained with the blood and human life of the enemy in his hands is not a soldier in the strict sense.
Because, at the same time, death not only represents the departure of a life, but also means that a soldier experiences the baptism of life. From then on, in the battlefield killing, not afraid of the passage of fresh lives, he can still calmly raise the robbery in his hand and harvest the lives of the enemy. (To be continued.) )
