Chapter 337: Father Dies, Mother Marries
Kurmanbek and Zhang Bing were waiting for news in the valley, but after Sesik and his party went out, they did not return. This made them gradually lose their patience, and Krimu kept walking outside the tent, and Kurman Buik frowned, feeling a little embarrassed for his son's impatient appearance, especially in front of Zhang Bing. Just about to open his mouth to scold, Zhang Bing waved his hand, took off the copper kettle on the stove in front of him, poured a cup of hot tea for Kurman Buick, and then added some new firewood to the stove before saying: "Young people are impatient, this is normal." ”
Zhang Bing is actually not old, but because of his friendship with Kurman Buick's peers, Crimea is equivalent to his junior, although the two are actually about the same age. Of course, the Crimea itself does not admit the generational gap. He regarded Zhang Bing as an enemy and wanted to dismantle him.
When the gunshots came, everyone was shocked. The rapid sound of gunfire echoed through the valley and even caused a small avalanche that blocked a mountain road, but it was a blessing in misfortune that there were no casualties.
"Father, what should I do?" Krimu walked in from outside, looking very panicked.
"Panic!" Kurmanbek finally burst out, slapped his son in the face, and strode out of the tent. Outside, it was already a pot of porridge, and people were neighing like the sky was falling.
Now even Kurman Buick has no idea, he has been the patriarch of Taiping for several years, and he has never encountered such a tricky situation at all, so although he has extraordinary knowledge, he is still stunned at this moment. At this moment, Kurmanbek suddenly heard a gunshot in his ears, which shook his ears.
"Calm me down! Listen to the patriarch! ”
It was Zhang Bing who shot him, and the courage of this decisive horse thief was naturally different. He now held a gun in one hand and Kurmanbek in the other, saving the old man from being frightened by the sound of gunfire.
"Patriarch, please speak!" Zhang Bing let go of his hand at this time and said very respectfully.
The sound of gunfire attracted everyone's attention, and the panic in the valley finally subsided for a while. People stood still, bewildered.
Although Kurman Bek was a bit wolf, he still stabilized his mind at the critical moment, at least when Zhang Bing sent away his left hand to support him, he did not fall.
"Change whatever you have to do, don't embarrass me!" Kurman Buick ate and scolded when he opened his mouth, although he didn't like it, but it inexplicably played a role in stabilizing people's hearts. Everyone looked at me, I looked at you, was silent for a moment, and finally dispersed, and each of them went to do something. "Assemble the guards!"
Kurman Bek gathered his own personal guards, which was built by Zhang Bing. With these people, if others disobey discipline, they will be somewhat afraid in their hearts. And the horse bandits around Zhang Bing didn't know when, and they scattered into six or seven squads, which means that they are preparing to break through separately.
Kurman Bek saw a qiē in his eyes, but he didn't ask, now is not the time to fall out with Zhang Bing, and it is the best choice to help each other in the same boat.
"Bahar and Emira are back!" Two knights rushed in at the entrance to the valley, one of whom had just entered the valley when he fell off his horse and sat on the snow panting, bleeding from his forehead. The other one was slightly better, but it was obvious that his face was very pale and his eyes were terrified.
Bahar and Emira were the two men sent back by Sesik to report the news before he rushed down the hillside to rescue the Doucha tribal patrol. But before they could descend the mountain, they got one last glimpse of Sesik and all his companions, the whole process of being a sieve in a hail of bullets.
Although the time was very short, it was not an exaggeration to say that it was a moment, but in Bahar and Emira's minds, it seemed like a slow motion. Bullets whizzed and struck the body, splattering blood and staining the snow red. Sessick's treasured Model 1873 Winchester riding gun flew into the air, and then his horse fell to the ground and slid through the snow for a long distance. The knight who had been riding on it was thrown down to the snow, his limbs twisted like a broken puppet abandoned by his master. The expression is dull, and the eyes are blank.
The expressions and dead states of the fallen deeply stimulated the nerves of the two, and they did not dare to turn back, fearing that the cavalry of Guangfu Town would go up the hill and make them become one of the broken puppets.
Returning to the valley seemed to be the only way out, but for some reason, even though there were nearly 2,000 people in the valley now, the two of them still didn't feel the slightest sense of security. Returning to the valley seemed to be just following their instincts, but they didn't know if it was right or wrong to do so.
"What the hell is going on?" Kurman Bek asked the guards to surround the two and asked in a low voice. He had an extremely bad premonition, gave Zhang Bing a look, and the two walked into the encirclement.
Because Emira had fallen off her horse and was bleeding from her forehead, all eyes were on Bahar.
His eyes were a little angry, and Bahar was still a little dazed, but after seeing Kurman Bek in front of him, he turned over and dismounted, and then knelt in front of his family patriarch, crying: "Allah, patriarch, you will avenge Sesik and them!" ”
"What the hell is going on?"
"It's the cavalry of Guangfu Town! These white-robed demons! We had patrolled out of the valley before, and after climbing a few hills, we came to the top of a hill, where we met a patrol of the Ducha tribe......" Bahar recounted what had happened, but the more Kurmanbek listened, the more his brow furrowed. The battle of the cavalry of the town of Guangfu was far beyond his imagination, and he even wondered if Bahar was frightened and fled, so he deliberately made up an absurd story in order to avoid punishment.
"So, Sesik, they're all dead?" Zhang Bing suddenly asked.
"Yes!"
"How many cavalry are there in the Restoration Town?"
Bahar thought for a moment, then looked at Emira, the only companion who had followed him back, and said, "There are hundreds, right?" ”
Emira was indifferent, just sat on the snow with her eyes straight.
Someone walked over at this time and patted the young man's face gently, but this slap didn't matter, and Emira fell directly on her back. When everyone gathered around to check the injury, they found that this young man had lost his breath!
"Dead?" Kurman Bekk asked in a low voice with a grim face.
Zhang Bing nodded and gave Kurman Buick an idea. "Patriarch, it seems that things are a little troublesome! Gather the leaders of those small tribes first, and let's discuss it. If there's really no way to ......"
"How?"
"Let them be the backers!"
