Chapter 38 (3) Straight to the Middle Palace

In the courtyard, at this time, the gunfire was sparse, and the bandits knew that they could only be caught in the house, so most of them rushed out desperately, causing the enemy and me to fight each other, and the courtyard was full of battlefields, Duan Laosan estimated the situation and shouted to Shi Suo: "Don't chase." ”

Shi Suo stopped, turned around and killed again, at this time the dozen or so bandits who ran to the mountain gate, seeing that there was no one chasing behind, they all fled to the outside of the temple without looking back, like rabbits being chased by hunters.

Two cowardly bandits, holding their heads in fear, shouted, "Surrender, surrender." Avoiding the corner, the team members also shouted: "Squat, surrender to avoid death." ”

Shi Suo and Dafeng left and right, killed a slip of alleys in the courtyard, and several resisting enemies screamed in fear and retreated, and a few bandits squatted in the corner with their heads in their hands, the situation in the courtyard gradually became clear, Duan Laosan jumped on the flower bed and shouted: "Who dares to resist again." ”

At this time, Shi Suo was grabbing a tall and thin man, lifting it above his head, and slamming it around, causing the thin bandit to scream in fright: "Spare your life." ”

"Surrender, I surrender," several bandits shouted in unison, throwing down their weapons.

Suddenly, from the front yard, another group of people ran in. One by one panicked, it turned out that these people were those who had just escaped out of the temple gate, they were fortunate to get out of the battlefield, out of the temple gate, thinking that it was good luck, and were secretly rejoicing, suddenly a burst of gunfire rang out, "Horn, horn, horn," the bandits fell two at once.

The rest were beaten, and they were all lying on the ground, and two of the smarter ones, who were not close to the sound of the guns, shouted, "Run, there are not many of them." ”

It was the team members who were ambushed outside the temple led by Hu Xuan, there were only four people including Hu Xuan, although the Hanyang-made rifle in his hand was powerful, but it could not be fired continuously, and it was necessary to re-shell and reload after a shot, and after the first row of guns was fired, the gunfire quickly fell down. The bandits took advantage of this opportunity to get up from the ground and rush forward without their lives.

In front of the temple, there is only one main road. Leading to the village of Baihuaji down the slope, the bandits were fleeing, and gunshots rang out in front of them.

"Horn, horn," at first. It was two rifles, followed by a string of tight gunshots, "Horn Horn," ringing in a ball, like popping beans, and the sound could not be distinguished, and the bandits were frightened, how many teams must be in front of this?

It turned out that this burst of gunfire was caused by the two team members who went to Baihuaji to find buckets and shovels. Their task was to dig a pit on the road in front of the temple with shovels to delay the bandits from escaping, but the battle in the temple started too early because it was discovered in advance, and before they could reach the temple, the fleeing bandits had already run out of the temple gate, so they had to put down the shovels, put the prepared firecrackers into the buckets, and set them on fire.

The barrel is a semi-enclosed space that turns the sound of firecrackers into a dull mess. Although it is not too similar to the real gunfire, it is mixed with the gunfire, but it also has the effect of deterring the enemy, and there were only two team members on the road. If the bandits resolutely ran down, they would definitely not be stopped, but how could they dare to rush forward with such a close "gunfire"?

"Kill," Hu Xuan led the team members, while releasing the gun. While shouting loudly, gunshots, firecrackers, and shouts were mixed together, forming a powerful intimidating force, as if there were thousands of troops and horses in ambush outside the temple, and the bandits did not have time to distinguish the authenticity from the fake, stumbled, and returned to the temple.

At this time, the battle inside the temple has been decided, most of the bandits held their heads, squatted in the corner, the team members dropped their guns, at these bandits who were driven back, shouted: "Surrender, throw down the knife." ”

A stunned boy jumped out of the bandits, without saying a word, he raised his knife and slashed, Duan Laosan raised a shot in his hand, the kid screamed, covered his stomach and fell to the ground, Shi Suo shouted: "If you don't surrender again, throw bombs." ”

In fact, there was no bomb in his hand, but the aftermath of the bomb in the big house just now was still there, and this bluff had a good effect, and the bandits were terrified and shouted: "Surrender, surrender." ”

Hu Xuan took the team members outside the temple, chased into the temple like a gust of wind, and saw that the courtyard was full of bandits who had surrendered, the team members were in a group of three, two in a group, and escorted the bandits to the corner of the wall to concentrate, on the ground and on the road, there was a mess, the bandits who were killed and wounded, the knives and guns and weapons thrown all over the ground, the shoes that ran away, and the bloodstains, the front yard and the back yard, all in chaos.

The two team members dragged out a chubby monk from the big house, and the monk kept begging, "Ladies and gentlemen, I am a monk in the temple, and I have nothing to do with them." This group of bandits is really bad. ”

Duan Laosan walked over, glanced at the fat monk twice, and smiled, "Great monk, do you still know me?" This time, would you like to treat me to a cup of tea? ”

Dafeng was bandaging the wound on Shi Suo's arm, and it was only then that Shi Suo felt a pain in his arm, but he didn't care, and said happily with a grin: "This battle was fought happily, and they were beaten to a pulp, what about Shen Jingang?" Dead? ”

Duan Laosan was also searching for Shen Jingang's whereabouts, and the little man and others went to the big house to check it out, and found that Shen Jingang and several leaders were all killed, but they were just looking for it, and they didn't see the figure of the three masters, and interrogated the two prisoners, saying that the three masters did not come and were still in the lake. Shi Suo said to Duan Laosan: "Shen Jingang's men and horses have already let us clean up more than half, and the remaining few small fish and shrimp can't become the climate, simply, let's take advantage of the victory to pursue, and then go back to the lake, and bring the remaining bandits to a pot, didn't you also say that you want to kill a horse gun?" ”

Duan Laosan shook his head, "This battle went smoothly because the bandit leader was killed at the beginning, they were leaderless, and they were caught off guard by us, and the situation in the lake is different, the ground there is wide, the situation is complicated, you have to plan carefully." Besides, there were two battles today, and everyone was tired, hurry up and deal with the prisoners, hurry up and rest, the bandits in the lake can't run. ”

At this time, everyone felt that they were indeed sleepy and tired, and they couldn't lift their legs.

The next day, the little man drew a sketch of the bandits' nest in the lake, and everyone learned that Ledao was only a bandit's nest on the surface, but there were neither defenses nor complex terrain, and the bandits just used it as a foothold. A truly secret bandit nest on a sandbar called "Brother Island".

"I see." Stone Lock patted his head.

To the captured bandits, Dafeng's advice was: "Kill the bad ones." Okay, put it. (To be continued.) )
