Chapter 23 The Signal

(New books for recommendation, collection!) The support of my friends is my biggest motivation! Please, please, and thank you very much! )

The Sea Dragon King asked Zhu Wu and Chen Heita to lead one hundred and eighty people out to deal with the Zhang family's militia, and he himself felt that it was a big fuss. According to his meaning, it is enough to bring a hundred and ten people, and one by one can win the Zhang family. Think about how many guns they have in their hands? Hundreds, and the Zhang family has a total of twenty, they are old bandits, and the Zhang family is just a cropper who is digging in the soil, and he has only put down his hoe and trained for three months, what is the use? But although the three masters did not go, they repeatedly insisted that they bring more people, so bring more, don't make trouble with their own brothers.

According to the old rules, when a large army goes out, they have to set up more sentry posts before and after their nests than usual, and this time is no exception. But these bandits who stayed behind have long been tired of standing guard, and they have never had an accident for many years, and those who were sent out to stand guard and patrol did not take their tasks seriously. There are only three people in total on this side of the river, and there are more sentry posts on the main road and small road west of Dawuzhuang.

The shore is still full of reeds, and beyond that is a field of wheat, and behind the field is a village. However, this Zhuangzi is also practiced in a row, and there are big trees behind the house. The three sentries were crooked together under the big tree to cool off, while farting and chatting, and their eyes basically didn't sweep to the lake, not to mention that one of them was still napping. It's no wonder that the three sentry posts here, their small dock is still on the north side of the village, by the lake, and there are also special people guarding there, this side is purely that the birds don't, which is the least important compared to other places. It's really unlucky for the three of them to be their turn today, so how can they care about the movement by the lake.

On the tidal flats by the lake, the dense reeds covered Zhang Renjie's tracks well, and he made a small circle slightly, and slowly lurked behind the three of them. Zhang Renjie didn't make a sound, he rushed forward and pounced, and the dagger quickly slashed the throat of a bandit, and the bandit immediately fell down with his throat covered. Another bandit, who was chatting with him, was taken aback and hurriedly picked up a machete from the tree to fight back, while preparing to scream. It's just that Zhang Renjie didn't give him this chance, and the dagger instantly took off his hand and plunged straight into his head, and then the bandit fell down without a sound.

The process of killing the two bandits was like lightning, and the remaining one of the bandits who was napping was also awakened, and he was about to get up when one was excited, but Zhang Renjie rolled forward and kicked him in the throat with a sharp kick. The last bandit's head tilted back ninety degrees on his neck, and he fell limply against the tree again. This place is a little remote, there is no one else for the three of them, there is a gun on the ground, and the bandit has a bag of bullets on his waist, but Zhang Renjie did not take a gun, but continued to move forward with a dagger in his hand. He had this gun in his hand, it was an Enfield 1853 rifle, an old commodity thirty years ago, and now the countries of the world have long since eliminated it, and I don't know where this bandit got it.

At this time, his task is to scout and pull out the outpost, and wait for him to signal his troops to come up, so that he can immediately take them to kill the Sea Dragon King. It was useless to hold a gun, and as soon as the gun was fired, the target was immediately exposed.

The houses of this Dawuzhuang are arranged in a staggered manner, divided into three rows of Zhuangzi before and after, each row consists of more than 30 houses, some large and some small. That is, the row closest to the lake has the five largest houses in the northeast corner, and the five buildings in the front row are still connected, and a row of courtyard walls about 80 meters long is framed. It seems that this is the lair of the Sea Dragon King.

Zhang Renjie was right, it was the residence of the Sea Dragon King and a group of bandits. The back row of houses houses houses several masters, and the front row houses the homes of ordinary bandits. The front row and the back are guarded, and there are also a few houses on the dock by the lake, where some of the bandits live. According to the Sea Dragon King's thoughts, it should be impregnable. It's just that these bandits have been on the loose for too long, and their vigilance has been reduced to almost nothing, giving Zhang Renjie a chance to take advantage of it in broad daylight.

This back row of Zhuangzi was the main residence of the bandits, and there was no villager here, Zhang Renjie carefully checked the terrain on both sides, and then shook his body and jumped into the large courtyard of the row of five houses in the -----residence of the Sea Dragon King.

Since the large army was taken out by Zhu Wu, there were less than fifty bandits left in Zhuangzi before and after, and even fewer remained in the courtyard. The whole courtyard seemed empty, Zhang Renjie jumped into the courtyard and immediately hid, hey, peeked forward, the big courtyard in front of him was actually a martial arts arena, and there were eight little guys practicing boxing on the field, including two girls. The leader of the boxing practice is also a woman, and on the chair on one side is a big man, slightly chubby, with a goatee, it is very likely that it is the Sea Dragon King himself!

But the yoke Sea Dragon King was surrounded by more than a dozen people with loaded guns, and it was difficult for him to start for a while. Then the next thing can only be to mess up the bandits' cave first, and take advantage of the chaos! He took out the fire fold wrapped in oiled paper from the small bag in his waist and sneaked into a side room in the backyard, and after a while, the whole room was on fire, and the billowing smoke suddenly dispersed.

"There's a fire in the house, go see what's going on?!" The bandits in the front yard also saw the abnormality in the backyard, and several female relatives in the backyard also ran out of the house. It's just a little strange, why did the good ones catch fire? But then I thought about the recent hot weather, the weather was dry, and it was not impossible to start a fire.

The children in the front yard also stopped practicing boxing, and the older ones followed the bandits to the backyard and hurriedly fetched water and extinguished the fire under the command of the Sea Dragon King.

The smoke was billowing out, causing the bandits who had been guarding outside to rush here to see what was going on. In this way, the surrounding sentry posts are even more useless, and no one cares about whether to sentry or not, even if they don't go to the compound, their thoughts fly over together.

"It's on fire! Hurry up and head to the place where the fire started! Thousands of meters away, the billowing smoke was also seen, and Dong Biao, Zhang Youfa, and Zhang Daniu immediately ordered on several boats.

There were no accidents, and the signal came, indicating that the information given by the previous bandits was correct. "Hurry up, the company commander ordered, all the bandits will be killed, and no one will be left!"

The nine boats were already very close to the shore, and the team waded through the water and quickly went ashore. In this remote place, the three sentry posts were wiped out by Zhang Renjie, and the team members soon came to the back of this row of houses, and then continued to march towards the place where the fire started.

But by this time, the bandits also discovered the traces of the Self-Defense Forces. The movement of such a large force was not small, and when they turned around a row of houses, the eleven bandits who rushed back on the road to fight the fire happened to see the Self-Defense Forces in distinctly different clothes.

"Who?!" The oncoming bandit immediately yelled and asked.

"The one who wants your life!" Dong Biao didn't say a word at first, and immediately shot a gun, hitting one of the bandits, and then the other team members also raised their guns and shot at this small group of bandits, a burst of gunfire rang out, and the remaining ten people suddenly fell most of them, two clever ones, a donkey rolled, rolled to the side of the road, and then ran towards the Sea Dragon King lifelessly.

The gunshot rang out, and the Sea Dragon King and Zhang San, who were hurrying to put out the fire, immediately realized that an enemy was coming, and the fire in front of him was not just raised for no reason.

"the guy up to the courtyard wall, I'm going to see if it's the one who is not afraid of death who dares to pluck the feathers on the tiger's mouth! I'm really impatient! The Sea Dragon King did not hesitate and immediately ordered loudly. This partial house is not big, although the fire is not small, but it was constantly watered and extinguished by more than 20 people just now, and there is no fire. At this moment, more than a dozen bandits with black ash on their faces all picked up their guys and began to climb up the courtyard wall with ladders, holding guns and waiting to give the incoming enemy a good look.
