Chapter Seventy-Seven: Battle or Surrender

Perhaps it was because of the comfortable days that had passed, and the sentries who were assigned to the front-line defense line every night regarded this kind of sentry that required them to stay awake all night as a kind of torment. And the family that set up the sentry task tonight is the son of the Zhao family who is closest to the position of the first line of heaven.

These children of the Zhao family, of different ages, arrived at the outpost halfway up the mountain, and actually regarded the chicken and rice wine brought from home as a barbecue event. Nestled in the outpost house, everyone began to drink while waiting for the chicken to cook on an iron bar.

As for the task of observing the first-line sky sentry card, most of them are handed over to the youngest juniors who come out to perform the mission. Those older children of the Zhao family are all hiding in the house of the outpost drinking and chatting at the moment.

Looking at these unguarded sentinels, Xu Bin lined up the two guard squads at the bottom of the mountain, waiting for his success signal to open the gate of the stone fortress courtyard built in the world, and receive the army that was ambushed outside. In addition, they also need to take on a task, that is, if the above clearance mission is unsuccessful, then they must buy five to ten minutes for the army that opened the courtyard gate after the gun is fired.

With Xu Jiacheng and the others, Xu Bin did not do it himself, but used sign language to order these soldiers in the guard platoon, who were like him, painted with black mud to cover most of their facial features, and took action to clear the sentries who were still patrolling outside.

Everyone cooperated with each other, and there was a detailed division of labor for whoever opened the bow and who rushed up to support the fallen corpse and not let it alarm the sentinels who were still drinking and chatting inside. It was the first time that the things from the training were used in actual combat, and these guard platoon soldiers, who could also be regarded as elite soldiers in a hundred battles, realized for the first time how terrifying this silent killing was.

Cleared the seven or eight patrol posts outside, and when Xu Bin led ten people to block the still alive defenders in the room, with the help of the lights inside, Xu Bin found that the other party had put their guns aside. Completely ignoring the rule of keeping the gun on his side, he gave Xu Jiacheng a gesture and asked him to wait for the next attack to first put away the guns scattered on the side.

As for those who dare to resist, they will be hunted and killed by the rest of the crossbowmen. If the other party is honest and does not resist, and waits for the training mountain to be taken, maybe Xu Bin will give the other party a chance to live.

The order was confirmed, and Xu Bin stretched out three fingers and put them away one by one. Until Zuihou's finger fell, the two guards platoon soldiers kicked open the door with submachine guns, and the people inside did not react and shouted: "Don't move, raise your hands." Whoever dares to move will take his life! ”

Just as an elderly bandit was about to stretch his hand to his waist to pull his gun, the crossbowman standing beside Xu Bin shot an arrow unceremoniously. This should be the leader of the Zhao family tonight, and a crossbow arrow stuck in his forehead fell in front of everyone.

Just when these saw the leader die and were about to shout, Xu Bin said coldly: "Dare to say one more word, have one more action to resist, kill!" ”

In the face of these ghosts-like enemies, the children of the Zhao family, who were still drinking and chatting happily just now, could only honestly squat in place with their heads in their hands. Let Xu Bin and the others, who were carrying ropes, tie them up and escort them to the side.

As for the tie-up, some young and vigorous Zhao family children were ready to resist, but in exchange for punches and kicks from the guard platoon. If you don't behave well, when facing the cold crossbowman, you can only close your mouth and squat to the side.

After tying up all the surviving people in the outpost and gagging them, Xu Bin said: "Give confidence to the second squad and take the army into the mountain." A few of you, stay on the mountain for the time being, and wait until the receiving troops below go up the mountain, and then you will hand over to each other. Among them, whoever dared to make noise did not need to ask for instructions, and sent him directly to accompany the sentinels outside. ”

Leaving this sentence, Xu Bin only took Xu Jiacheng and quickly walked down the fortifications built in the middle of the mountain, and joined Chen Zhengdao and others who led the troops into the valley through the courtyard gate. Knowing that outside of this defensive line, there are two fortifications built in each village in this village, and it will be easy to bring Xu Bin with the artillery detachment tonight to solve them.

Therefore, he directly ordered: "Put the signal, light the torch, and inform the second company commander that they can start." ”

With a fireworks signal commonly used by bandits, rising on the top of a mountain in the first line of sky, the four villagers surnamed who had not slept tonight. Then they saw the hundreds of well-groomed troops that appeared in front of them with their torches lit.

Faced with this army that appeared in the valley like a sky descending from the sky, the Zhao family, who rushed to check the situation, quickly opened fire to warn. The gunshots that rang out in the middle of the night were extremely harsh in this training mountain. Xu Bin's army, which quickly stopped advancing and was ready to attack, looked at the four villages scattered in the valley, and groups of people with guns and torches appeared in front of them.

It's just that for some reason, when the number of people they gathered increased little by little, they did not start a counterattack. On the contrary, after they gathered together, they were discussing something, as if they also knew that they had broken through the first-line outpost, and they were afraid that they would lose more than they won against the regular army in front of them.

The confrontation lasted for half an hour, and looking at the four guards in front of him, who were also black, Xu Bin gave Chen Zhengdao a look. The commander of the third company immediately stepped forward and said, "Please come out and speak, if you are not willing to settle tonight's matter peacefully, then we will start attacking!" ”

In the face of Chen Zhengdao's shouting, soon a few gray-haired old men walked out of the crowd on the other side, led by an old man who was nearly one meter eight tall and looked very sturdy, and said loudly: "I don't know what part of your army is, why did you come to my training mountain to disturb the people on my side?" What do you want to do? ”

Chen Zhengdao glanced at Xu Bin and continued to ask, "Say your name!" ”

The old man was blocked by Chen Zhengdao's words, and quickly said: "The old man Zhao Baojia, the head of the Zhao family, I don't know what the name of your army is?" ”

Chen Zhengdao glanced at Xu Bin again, and only after agreeing did he say loudly: "Xu Jiajun!" ”

As soon as the three words came out, the team of the four surnames who was quiet just now suddenly became noisy, and even Xu Bin, who was standing behind Chen Zhengdao, quickly heard someone in those teams say: "The fart Xu Jiajun, isn't it the bandits of Heifeng Village?" Relying on strength, he is arrogant and domineering, and he doesn't talk about the rules of the rivers and lakes! Something like that.

Regarding the noise of these people, Xu Bin stepped forward directly and said: "Zhao Da is in charge, I am really sorry to meet on such an occasion." The younger generation Xu Jiajun Xu Bin was appointed as the master of Heifeng Village. If Xu is not mistaken, there must be the three big bosses of Qian, Sun, and Li next to him, right?

I don't want to talk nonsense, and I don't want to tell you about the rules of the rivers and lakes, how the four of you took the training mountain at the beginning, everyone in Linzhou knows it. What's more, it is the rule of our industry that the law of the jungle is the law of the jungle, and now that our army has broken a line of sky, it is up to you to fight or fight.

There is only one reason why I brought the army here tonight, that is, I have taken a fancy to the feng shui treasure of the training mountain, and I feel that it is too wasteful to give you four surnames. Originally, I had just entered the valley and could quietly launch a surprise attack on you, but the reason why I didn't attack was that I didn't want to kill too much.

If you really think that you can still fight against me in this situation, then I, Xu Jiajun, will tell you what it means to hit a stone with an egg. If the four big leaders don't believe it, then let's try it in front of the gong and the drum. Give you a quarter of an hour to think about it, and if there is no reply, then don't blame me for going on a killing spree. ”

As soon as the words fell, Xu Bin waved his hand, and the artillery detachment at the back of the team stepped out of the avant-garde defense infantry and began to set up mortars in front of the four surnames. At the same time, the heavy machine gun detachments of each company that were in the team just now also set up all the heavy machine guns that were clear at a glance on this spacious flat ground.

In the face of this unknown cannon and the heavy machine gun that the official army had used, there was a sudden silence in the team of the four surnames who were still noisy just now. Just when the four big leaders were thinking about how to solve this crisis, after the team of four people with the surname was standing, another army appeared with torches and the same military uniform as Xu Bin and others in front of them.

Looking at the Xu family army that suddenly appeared from behind, the big boss of the four surnamed families knew that if they didn't want to destroy the clan. There is only one way left, and that is to accept surrender. However, in the face of the negotiations proposed by the four families, Xu Bin clearly told them. Only by laying down his arms first did Xu Jiajun choose to negotiate with them.

Of course, if they don't believe in Xu Jiajun, then everyone will still see the real chapter under their hands, anyway, Li Chengbing's reinforcements appeared, and the overall situation of the training mountain can be said to be firmly in Xu Bin's hands.

This aggressive tone made the four surnamed people hesitate again, but when Xu Bin ordered the artillery, he test-fired a mortar at the open space where the four surnamed people were. The range beyond the rifle, as well as the earth and rocks kicked up during the explosion, all shocked the four surnames.

The small cannon in front of him looks like it, although it is not as big as the infantry cannon dragged by the officials and troops when attacking the mountain, but it is undoubtedly much lighter to fire and operate. In this kind of place, which can only rely on the earth walls of the village, the fortifications they have built over the years have no effect on this kind of mortar. If they don't want to be wiped out, they have to surrender.

After all, the slaughter Jin family that Xu Jiajun defeated in Juxiang City can be regarded as destroying the family. Now it's finally their turn, and if they arouse the anger of the other party, who dares to guarantee that they won't kill them all again! At this time, the backbone still can't play much role, not to mention that they are a village that started as bandits, and surrendering without killing is naturally the first choice.
