Li Zhen took Yang Banhou and others into Guangdong, and it was already the third day of the fourth month.

Back in Guangdong, Li Zhen was quite excited.

He left Guangzhou at the end of November last year and returned only in early April this year, which is already half a year ago. At the thought of returning to his nest, Li Zhen had the urge to look up to the sky and howl. It's just that the scene of reluctance with Zhilan appeared in his mind, and his mood was suddenly suppressed, and the smile on his face disappeared, replaced by a serious look.

Li Zhen looked at Huang Qiang and ordered, "Rest for a while and continue on your way." ”

Huang Qiangqiang knew a little about the surrounding situation and said, "Great Marshal, the soldiers who are exploring the road have reported that there is a stream flowing three miles ahead, and it is suitable to stop and rest. Let's go three miles further and rest by the stream and get some water. ”

Li Zhen nodded and said, "Okay, that's it!" ”

The group continued on their way, and when they had walked two miles, the road narrowed slightly.

On the left is a green field, and on the right is a mountain.

This mountain is not very high, according to Li Zhen's eyesight, it is about 500 meters. His gaze swept away, and the mountains were lush and green. At this time, spring has begun, spring has returned to the earth, and the mountains are full of vitality, revealing infinite vitality. Li Zhen found that the mountain was steep and straight, and the mountain road was rugged, making it difficult to go up.

Li Zhen stopped and watched for a long time and praised: "This mountain is a good place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. ”

Yang Banhou knew that Li Zhen had not let go of Zhilan's matter, and proposed: "Dashuai, we have entered the territory of Guangdong, we can return to Guangzhou in a few days, just rest for half a day, and go into the mountains to hunt and play, what do you think?" ”

Huang Qiang continued: "I agree with Commander Yang's suggestion. ”

He understood that Yang Banhou's proposal was to distract Li Zhen, so he chose to agree without hesitation.

Yang Luchan and Dong Haichuan also nodded in agreement, with a faint expectation in their eyes.

The two old men have been with Li Zhen for a while, and they have long been familiar with Li Zhen's character. Both of them understand that Li Zhen is an unambiguous person in major matters, but he can usually speak casually, so he talks very casually, and he also yearns to hunt in the mountains. When they were young, the two traveled from south to north, often sleeping in the mountains, and feeding their stomachs by hunting. But after settling down in Beijing, as I got older, I rarely went out hunting, and now I have the opportunity, and I am quite happy.

Li Zhen couldn't bear to brush off everyone's kindness, nodded and said, "Okay, go hunting in the mountains and rest for half a day." ”

The group turned over and dismounted, heading towards the entrance of the mountain road ahead.

"I opened this mountain, I planted this tree, I want to pass by from here, and leave to buy road wealth!" Just as Li Zhen, Yang Luchan and others were walking towards the intersection of the mountain road, a loud roar suddenly came from the intersection in front of them. Immediately, hundreds of neatly dressed bandits rushed out. Among these people, a few dozen people are holding bird guns, and most of them are holding steel knives, all of them are fierce and vicious, and they are quite imposing.

In an instant, hundreds of bandits blocked the road.

"Well, you will leave the war horse under your crotch, hand over the money on your body, and Uncle Ben will let you go."

Among the bandits, a middle-aged man with a steel fork walked out.

This person is not tall, with five short figures, two beards, eyebrows like swords, fierce eyes, cold complexion, and a fierce anger. He stared at Li Zhen and said: "My family wants to get married, and I don't want to start a killing ring, as long as you contribute the war horse under your crotch, the gun you are carrying, and the money in your pocket, the uncle will let you go immediately." If you don't cooperate, Uncle Hugh is welcome. ”

At this time, the twenty special forces of the Sharp Knife Battalion also raised their guns and aimed at each other, ready to shoot at any time.

The two sides faced each other, and they faced each other like this.

The leading bandit saw Li Zhen's soldiers raising their guns, and took a few steps back, hiding among the bandits.

Li Zhen's expression was calm, and he asked lightly, "What's your name?" ”

"My name is Chai Tianwang!"

The leading bandit didn't think about it, and answered directly.

Immediately, he became angry again, feeling like he was a level lower than Li Zhen.

Especially facing Li Zhen head-on, I always feel a little depressed. The hundreds of little brothers he brought by himself didn't work, and the other party stood alone with a feeling of immobility, which made Chai Tianwang very unhappy. Chai Tianwang was grinning, throwing the illusion just now to the back of his mind, and shouted: "Can you call Uncle Ben's name casually?" Look for death. ”

Li Zhen said: "Little thief, he is so arrogant. You take a closer look at the guns in the hands of the bandits you brought, and they are all birds. To put it mildly, if you pull the trigger and shoot, I don't know if it will go off. If you look at the guns of the soldiers under the command of this officer, they are all rear-loading rifled guns, all of which are high-quality goods. Both sides are firing and I promise you can't leave alive. ”

Chai Tianwang frowned and said, "You are an official?" ”

Li Zhen said with a serious face: "This official is Li Zhen, the governor and admiral of Guangdong, the largest official in Guangdong Province, who do you say I am?" ”

When Chai Tianwang heard this, he was stunned.

Seeing this situation, Li Zhen hooked a smile on the corner of his mouth, thinking that he must have scared this thief. However, Chai Tianwang's eyes rolled a few times, and he suddenly said, "Li Zhen? Haven't heard of it. Uncle Ben robbed the road at the foot of the mountain every day, and he had never heard of Li Zhen's name. ”

When Li Zhen heard this, he was speechless.

Sometimes, loneliness is also a problem.

Chai Tianwang's eyes were cold, and he said in a deep voice: "I don't care if you are Li Zhen or Zhu Zhen, put down your weapons for me and hand over the money and war horses." There are more than 300 people under the command of the uncle, and even if one person spits on it, he can drown you. If you fight hard, the bird's guns of the brothers under the command of the uncle can easily hit more than ten people, and you will be finished immediately. Hmph, the strength is in front of you, you should think about it carefully. ”

Li Zhen said coldly: "You are stubborn, this official will definitely lead the army to exterminate you." ”

Chai Tianwang laughed and said, "If you want to exterminate us, there is no way." Tell you, there have already been officers and soldiers here to suppress bandits, but the officials are bent on making money, and they have no ability, and they are frustrated every time, and then they all learn to be obedient and no longer send troops. Boy, you want to bring troops here, wait a few years. ”

Yang Banhou protected Li Zhen, and Huang Qiang commanded a few words to the soldiers of the Sharp Knife Battalion under his command.

"Dashuai, get ready!"

Huang Qiang stood not far from Li Zhen and whispered.

Li Zhen shouted violently: "Shoot!" ”

"Bang! Bang!!! ”

In an instant, a dense burst of gunfire rang out.

Bullets flew wildly, and a scream immediately rang out among the bandits. The bandits, armed with birds, were fired by the first wave of bullets, killing and wounding most of them. When the first wave of bullets was over, the second wave of frantic shooting instantly rang out again, killing the bandits on the opposite side. In less than a moment, the thieves under the command of Chai Tianwang who were holding bird guns were almost wiped out, and they could no longer threaten Li Zhen remotely, At this moment, Chai Tianwang was so angry that he was like thunder.

He waved the steel fork in his hand and yelled, "Kill, kill this guy for me." ”
