Chapter 86 Fighting the Yushan Bandits

In the past few days, under Weizhen's care, Qi Weilun's condition has greatly improved. Wei Zeng saw that the life of the refugees was too poor, so he taught them some ways to survive in the wild.

Feiying Village also faced a lack of houses, Wei Zeng took the villagers to hunt in Yishan, and the second senior brother tried his best to buy some food to get through the difficulties.

However, although Wei Zeng's help has improved the lives of the refugees, it will not be sustainable in the long run. Especially when the winter in Kanbei comes, let alone looking for food in the forest, even the cold wind and heavy snow are enough to bury the lives of these people.

Qi Weilun was also frown when he heard Wei Zeng's worries.

Wei Zeng then suggested: "Our Xishan faction has established a stockade in Yishan, and there are now thousands of displaced people who have fled in the past few years. If these hundreds of people rushed to Yishan Yiying Village before winter, the current situation should be able to save them. It's just that Yishan and Guanbei are thousands of miles away, and the situation of these people is not optimistic, and I'm afraid that they can't quench their thirst from far water. After Wei Zeng finished speaking, he also felt that his suggestion was really not feasible, so he couldn't help but shake his head.

"Is there really a place for Wei Daxia to take us in? We have long been homeless, the officials and soldiers have been expelling us, and the robbers have also sacked us, so we can only live here one day at a time. Anyway, staying here is death, so it's better to try your luck in Yishan. ”

When the refugees in the shed heard Wei Zeng's words, they knew that there was still a glimmer of life, and they responded and said, "Go to Yishan, let's go to Yishan", "As long as you can live for a thousand miles, what is it."

"Instead of sitting still, it's better to break through. A glimmer of life is better than no way out. Let's go to Yishan! Qi Weilun was also infected by the excitement of the refugees, swept away the sadness and despair, and his eyes also revealed a kind of hope.

So Wei Zeng and Qi Weilun began to organize the refugees to advance towards Yishan. There was a commotion on the edge of the camp, and several high-rollers on horseback rushed into the crowd of refugees, brandishing whips and knives wreaking havoc through the crowd.

Although the number of refugees is large, they can only flee in the face of the whips and steel knives of several high-rollers, and the high-rollers unscrupulously and arbitrarily torture and kill the refugees who cannot escape. A picture of a wolf entering a flock.

"I didn't expect there to be so many people here, the wall in the west was destroyed by heavy rain, and it was just time to catch them back to work as coolies. If you kill a few people, you will kill the old, weak, sick and disabled first, and whoever you kill will be a coolie. A high roller said.

"Hahahaha, what's there to worry about, it doesn't matter if there are so many people here to kill a few more. I was beaten by the official army a few days ago, and now I can finally give this evil breath. Hey, there's a little girl with such a mark, just caught back to be my concubine. Seeing Wei Zhen arrogantly said, the eighth man rushed over to catch Wei Zhen on the horse.

Wei Zeng was already furious when he saw these high-rollers being so cruel. Seeing Lao Ba rushing over, he shot him off the horse with a flying knife, and stepped forward to smash his head with a cane, resulting in his life.

"Good boy dares to hurt people, brothers go up together to avenge the eighth child, ah......" The previous high-roller saw Wei Zeng's murder and shouted, and before the words fell, Wei Zeng pierced his chest with a javelin.

The remaining few people brandished their weapons and killed Wei Zeng. Wei Zeng calmly shot a javelin at the first person, stepped forward while the man was dodging, and broke the horse's leg with a blow from his staff.

Another person stabbed Wei Zeng with a spear, and Wei increased his shield to the side and retreated, breaking the man's arm with a blow from the staff. The man threw away his spear and clutched his severed arm.

Wei Zeng wanted to shoot him, but the man who fell off the horse swung his knife at Wei Zeng and made him unable to separate. By the time the recalcitrant gangsters were killed, the severed arm had long since gone.

"These are the robbers I know from the cottage where I used to be. The robbers numbered in the hundreds, and they acted with great cruelty, not only looting passers-by and sometimes attacking officers and soldiers. Now that the man is let go, I'm afraid that a big wave of robbers will come soon, how can this be good? Qi Weilun stepped forward and said to Wei Zeng, his tone full of worry.

"Mr. Qi, you and Weizhen will lead people to go first, and I will try my best to lure away these robbers." Wei Zeng pondered for a moment and then decided.

"Wei Xiaoyou, wouldn't it be too dangerous for you to fight against so many robbers alone. Let's think of something else. We can't sacrifice your life for survival. Qi Weiren said.

"I, Wei Zeng, am not a reckless man who only knows how to work hard. It is a fool's dream that I alone want to kill all the robbers. But I'm just trying to get them away, I don't need to confront them head-on, I'm going to be fine. Wei Zeng reassured.

"Husband, I'm going with you. You and I are husband and wife, and we should share weal and sorrow together. If something happens to you, I will never be the only child. Wei Zhen took a breath and said to Wei Zeng very seriously.

"Little fool, I said I wasn't going to die. Besides, with a bride like you, how could I be willing to die, I haven't been a groom enough. Wei Zeng flicked Weizhen's forehead and said with a smile.

Wei Zhen's face was red when Wei Zeng said, and he didn't know how to respond. Wei Zeng continued: "Moreover, many of these refugees are not in good health. You are the only one here who knows the art of medicine, and if you are not in them, many of them will probably not be able to stand the long journey and die. You and Mr. Qi will be of greater use here. We haven't been apart for a few days, don't you have faith in your husband and me? ”

Although Wei Zhen was reluctant, he still nodded and listened to Wei Zeng's words. The refugees packed up a little and left in a hurry under the leadership of Qi Weilun and Wei Zhen. Wei Zeng mounted the dead high roller's horse and chased in the direction of the robber's escape.

Soon after, a group of more than 100 bandits, led by the Broken Arm, rushed to the refugee's previous camp.

"It seems that the brothers who dare to kill us are also impatient, and they all listen to this time without leaving a single mouth, to avenge the dead brothers, so that outsiders know that there is only one way to die if they provoke us." The leader of the robbers said viciously.

"Do you know that the old boy surnamed Qi is also there. That old boy is so ignorant of lifting, you in charge of the house are so important to him, he dares to run away. If you catch him this time, you must peel him and cramp him, so that he will not die well. The man with the broken arm said with added vinegar.

"Is the scholar surnamed Qi also there? Tell the brothers not to kill him, I keep him useful. The leader of the robbers replied.

"What did the man surnamed Qi leave him to do, the thin man has no strength at all, and he wastes food. However, there is a little girl with a sign in that group, and it is good to stay if the head of the family wants to stay. The man with the broken arm wondered.

"Pig brains! What do you do all day apart from drinking and eating meat and thinking about women? Although the temper of those who read books is annoying, the brains are still very useful. The last time we attacked the other camps, it was his ploy, and we had almost no deaths; And that time when the official army called, it was also him who said that we would save the day. The leader of the robbers reprimanded.

The man with the broken arm did not dare to answer, so he obediently went to the front to lead the way, passing through a place where the grass was overgrown, and the man with the broken arm only felt a panic in his heart. The man with the broken arm looked at the hundred or so people behind him, and suddenly his courage doubled, and he smiled and continued to move forward without care. With a "whoosh", an arrow hit him in the heart, and before the man with the broken arm could come back to his senses, what was going on, and he lost consciousness in front of him.

"There is an ambush, everyone be careful." The robbers dodged in a mess.

"Whoosh, whoosh" and a few more arrows were fired, and several robbers who were too panicked to dodge fell to the ground and groaned.

Under the reprimand of the bandit leader, the robbers fell down one after another and shot arrows in response.

Wei Zeng changed places every time he shot an arrow, and the robbers did not dare to attack rashly if they did not know the enemy's situation.

The leader of the robbers, seeing that the arrows they shot came from different places, did not shoot too many each time, and realized that there were not many people in ambush, so he shouted: "There are few enemies, so everyone rush over and kill them." ”

The robbers swarmed up through the dense forest and weeds, only to see a figure fleeing in the distance. The robbers felt that they had been tricked, and rushed towards Wei Zeng with a shout of rage.

Wei Zeng climbed a small hill, and the robbers followed. As the robbers climbed, they saw several boulders tumbling down, and the first few robbers were smashed into pulp. Whenever a robber tried to climb up, boulders and arrows would be shot, and the robber would not dare to move forward.

"There is a cliff on the other side of this hill, and this is the only way down the mountain. We're staying here, he can't get away. We just consume and consume him to death. The bandit leader said.

The robbers guarded the way down the mountain, and the leader of the robbers forced people to be tempted. One person poked his head out at the risk of being hit by a stone only to find that he was not attacked, and then probed whether he had been attacked. So he shouted and rushed forward. When the robber leader reached the top of the hill, he saw only a few pieces of rubble and a crude hunting bow, and a rope on the edge of the cliff running downward.

The leader of the robbers looked into the distance, and saw a man on a horse whistling at him. The leader of the robbers was so angry that he felt greatly insulted, and led a dozen people to ride on horses and chased after Wei Zeng.

After chasing for several miles, a dozen robbers caught up with Wei Zeng's horse, but Wei Zeng and his people were gone.

"If you have the guts, get out, what kind of hero is a stinky boy." The leader of the robbers shouted in all directions.

"I'm out!"

The leader of the robbers looked up at the sound and saw a dark shadow coming down from the tree. "Ahh

Wei Zeng killed the bandit leader, jumped on his horse, shook off the dead body of the bandit leader, and brandished his steel rod to kill the rest of the stunned bandits.

When the robbers saw that their leader had been killed, they were frightened, and after a little resistance, they scattered and fled.

Wei Zeng saw that there were many robbers chasing and killing in the distance, and he did not stop to ride his horse in the opposite direction of the refugees.

At the same time, Wei Zeng's portrait has been on the government's wanted list. It turned out that while Shui Qingliu sent his subordinates to hunt down Wei Zeng, he had already woven a series of charges against Wei Zeng. The local guards have long created a lot of unjust cases based on the principle that they would rather kill by mistake than let go, not to mention that this is from Shui Qingliu, who has always been very "loyal" to the imperial court, it is even more undoubted.

Unbeknownst to Wei Zeng, he left the forest and went to a densely populated area after getting rid of the Yushan bandits.
