Chapter 010: Robbery and Killing
Qin Kongyun's eyes were still shocked, and he frowned and said, "Then Brother Yang means ......." ”
Yang Zhi said expressionlessly: "Immediately draw out a group of capable dart masters and divide them into two shifts, and inspect the vehicles and horses day and night." The horses are immediately fed by a special person, and the person you absolutely trust is selected, and the food and drink of many people are uniformly responsible. Remember, to drink water and cook food, you have to go to the river to get water! ”
Seeing that Qin Kongyun was still a little hesitant, Yang Zhi said coldly: "Brother Qin doesn't have to hide it from me anymore, if you believe me, I will do it, and if you don't believe it, you can only do it." What if it's a poisonous horse today, what if it's a poisonous person tomorrow? And the living water in the river and stream, even if it is poisoned for a while, will not poison people. ”
Qin Kongyun said with a straight face: "Qin didn't mean to hide it from Brother Yang. I, the Qin family, are known as the richest man in Great Xia, and it is actually difficult to live up to my reputation. This batch of goods is worth a lot of money, and if there is a mistake, it will have a great impact on the reputation of my Qin clan. I also knew that the horses had been poisoned to death, but if I didn't say that, I was afraid that it would cause panic among the people. Brother Yang is extremely intelligent, and he hopes to help me regardless of his previous suspicions! ”
Yang Zhi sighed: "I just want to return the goods to Xinyang safely and soundly, and help you and myself." You and I are still in the same boat, and I am already a tiger, and I will do my best to help you. ”
Asked, "According to your estimates, what kind of person wants to be unfavorable to the Qin clan?" ”
Qin Kongyun frowned and said, "The children of the Qin clan have always adhered to the ancestral precepts of being rich and noble, not arrogant, and peaceful, and rarely have a grudge against others. As far as I can guess, the biggest threat to this trip is Nanchu. Previously, there was a precedent for a small group of small groups to pretend to be strongmen who went hundreds of miles deep into Great Xia to plunder caravans and burn grain and grass. ”
Yang Zhi said noncommittally: "Brother Qin, for the sake of prudence, it is absolutely forbidden to add new people from the Qin clan's branches from all over the country to join the caravan. Buy more horses for spare, and you must urge the caravan to rush at full speed rather than change horses halfway. The place and duration of the daily rest are decided by you and me on an ad hoc basis. ”
The Qin clan has many semicolons and thousands of employees, and Qin Kongyun naturally can't know everyone. The enemy is dark and I am clear, and this is done to strictly prevent the spies from mixing into the caravan halfway, so that the enemy cannot figure out the rules of the caravan's activities. Qin Kongyun nodded and said, "Everything depends on Brother Yang's guidance." ”
At the beginning of the next two nights, Yang Zhi felt a faint fever in his chest, and ordered the caravan to stop and rest at this time. This is a warning sign that the enemy is in danger, and the enemy has undoubtedly sent men to spy on and wait for an opportunity to attack.
Hurriedly drove away for two days and two nights, and arrived in Xinyang as soon as the afternoon of the next day, and everyone was exhausted. Yang Zhi repeatedly warned Qin Kongyun not to slack off in the slightest, at least to stay up until he entered Nanyang, the hinterland of Great Xia, to rest and recuperate.
On this day, when he hurried to Chouzheng in the early hours of the morning, Yang Zhi suddenly ordered the caravan to stop. didn't explain anything, just asked Qin Kongyun to gather more than a hundred carriages in an open place as soon as possible, and lit dozens of bonfires around the caravan. Most of the men were assigned to guard the convoy closely, and the others gathered all their bows and crossbows to keep watch on the perimeter. Strictly order everyone to wait for the knife to come out of the sheath and the arrow to be wound, as long as someone comes close to kill!
Before the two lines of defense were properly arranged, Yang Zhi's chest was hot and hot, and he couldn't help but secretly complain. Since coming to this world, I haven't even stepped on an ant to death, so I'm afraid I'll have to kill tonight.
As soon as he walked to the periphery with his knife, a group of people killed him from the darkness. The enemies are all black scarves, masked and dressed in strong suits, with bows, crossbows and swords, and the number is at least no less than three hundred! Attacking a caravan of equal numbers with such a force is not intended to attack, but to annihilate!
At this moment, Yang Zhi can no longer tolerate the slightest hesitation, and he will kill the man in black when he sees the knife! The opponent often didn't have time to react, and he was killed by him in the simplest and most direct way, quickly and ferociously. Five or six hundred people on both sides quickly mixed together and fought to the death, surrounded by the sound of slashing and howling. The enemy was well-trained and prepared, and began to gain the upper hand less than a moment after the battle began.
Blood and killing often stimulate the bestiality of people, and there is only one thought left in everyone's mind: either you die or I die!
Yang Zhi was able to kill, becoming more and more like a mad tiger and a ghost, and he was killed everywhere he went. But no matter how fierce he is, a person's ability is limited after all. Just as the caravan was gradually running out, dozens of red-clad masked men appeared out of nowhere, chanting the slogan "Protect the caravan" and joined the melee.
Under the sudden reinforcement of the new force, the victory and defeat of the two sides changed in an instant, and after half an hour, most of the men in black were killed and wounded. A few men in black fled when they saw that the situation was not good, and another twenty or thirty people were surrounded by groups and were still fighting the trapped beasts. Yang Zhi had already stopped, and seeing that there were casualties among the dart masters, executioners and red-clothed men from time to time, he fought again into the battle group. Everyone saw that his face was full of hideousness, as if he was performing a murderous performance like cutting melons and vegetables, and more than ten people died under his knife in just a moment, and they were all frightened.
In the end, the three black-clothed men stopped their futile resistance, and one of them looked up to the sky and sighed: "The lord has calculated everything, but he didn't count that the Qin clan still has such a peerless master!" Most of the three hundred elite dead soldiers lost their lives at your hands! ”
"God don't bless me Da Chu!" After the three of them lamented loudly, they all swung their knives and killed themselves. Yang Zhi solemnly stepped forward and bowed: "I'd rather die than surrender, it can be described as loyal and brave." ”
Qin Kongyun was also covered in blood, and ordered cleanly: "Someone!" The three men were buried thickly. The rest of the people counted the scene and inspected the casualties, and carefully checked whether the enemy was still alive. ”
He said with palpitations: "Today, thanks to Brother Yang's bravery, and the opportunity to be arranged in a good way, otherwise the caravan will definitely not be lucky!" He turned back to the red-clothed masked man who was the leader and said, "Thank you for your timely help!" I don't know if I can see ....... ”
Almost half of the red-clad masked men were killed or wounded, and they had silently brought their dead and wounded companions on their horses. The eyes of the leader kept staring at Yang Zhi, ignoring Qin Kongyun, and said in a deep voice: "Go!" ”
Yang Zhi suddenly threw the single knife in his hand suddenly, only to see a flash of blood, and the head of the horse of the leader was cut off alive!
Yang Zhi sneered: "This trip to Chang'an is not more than halfway through, since you have a heart to help, why rush to leave?" ”
The leader of the red-clothed masked men who fell in response to the sound got up in embarrassment, and without paying attention to Yang Zhi and Qin Kongyun, he called two subordinates to whisper, and a group of red-clothed masked men immediately rode away, but the leader was left alone. This time, Yang Zhi just watched coldly and did not intervene again.
Qin Kongyun waited for the red-clothed man to go far away, before he shook his head and sighed: "Brother Shen, I only deliberately named it Jianghu, and I originally had no intention of exposing your identity. Unexpectedly, Brother Yang is outstanding in writing and meticulous in his thoughts, and has the courage of being invincible. Both of you and I have greatly underestimated Brother Yang's ability! ”
