Seeing Zhang Heng's resolute attitude, Wendy didn't say anything more, and obediently followed Zhang Heng back to his ranch.

A woman who was milking cows in the cowshed saw her coming back, immediately put down the milk bucket at hand and ran over, took her in her arms, and choked up, "Great, they said that you were kidnapped by a strange oriental, and Matthew is not here, and I am dying." ”

Wendy tried to remove her head from the woman's chest, and when she heard this, she glanced at Zhang Heng with some embarrassment, "Sorry......"

Zhang Heng raised his eyebrows, "It's okay, it's human nature." ”

"Oh!" The woman only noticed Zhang Heng at this time, and immediately blocked Wendy behind her, revealing a trace of vigilance in her eyes, but she probably didn't know what to say, so she stood there like this.

The scene was a little embarrassing for a while, and finally Zhang Heng spoke, "Your daughter has been sent back by me, you'd better watch her and don't let her run around anymore." ”

Wendy's surprising cooperation this time made Zhang Heng a little relieved, considering her previous record, people couldn't help but worry about whether she would sneak out again, Zhang Heng originally planned to arrange someone to watch her again, but this time their manpower was already very tight, and they really couldn't pull out one person alone to do this kind of thing.

"I didn't run around, I went out to find my father." Wendy argued.

"Whatever, as long as you can stay home honestly this time." Zhang Heng said, and then nodded at Wendy's mother, "Excuse me." ”

After speaking, without waiting for the other party to answer, he rode away on a turnip, and as soon as Zhang Heng left on his front foot, a carriage carrying beer drove into Lincoln County on his back foot.

The coachman jumped out of the carriage and unloaded the barrel from the car with the workers around him, and the bar owner walked out and was a little surprised to see the comer, "Where's Bagget?" Didn't he always come to deliver wine before? ”

"Baggett got sick and contracted chickenpox, so this time his job was replaced by me." Humane driving.

"Poor boy." The bar owner sighed, "I hope he can get through this, come on, bring the wine in, you haven't had lunch yet, I just have some pies left in the kitchen." ”

"That couldn't be better." The driver bolted his horse and smiled, revealing a row of yellow teeth.

However, what the bar owner didn't notice was that the worker who followed behind was a little pale, of course, even if he noticed, he wouldn't pay much attention to it, and the coachman who was on the shift with Baggett had chickenpox, and it was understandable that the young man was in a bad mood.

…………

After Zhang Heng dealt with Wendy's affairs, he returned to the old cowboy and others as soon as possible.

From a distance, he saw the old cowboy cutting something with a knife, Zhang Heng walked in front of him, "What, are you still a tailor?" ”

"I'm not a damn tailor anymore, but if you want Cook and his men to give up that hunter's hut and get out of it, you'll have to pray that I'm good enough as a tailor."

"Huh?"

"The only thing that worries Cook around here is Major Wade and his more than a hundred soldiers," said the old cowboy, "I plan to disguise myself as Major Wade and his men, and if we are lucky enough that the moonlight is not so bright at night, and Cook and his men are not so sharp-eyed, my plan may succeed, and if Cook realizes that he is surrounded by troops, he will no longer hold on to the hut, and will start fleeing before the siege is completely closed." ”

"Sounds pretty good." Zhang Hengdao.

"We'd better pray that this will work." Old Cowboy Road.

"Is there any movement over there in the woods?" Zhang Heng asked again.

"For the time being, we haven't found the team, and there are two imps who want to go into the mountains to hunt, and they have been persuaded by our people to go back, but we can't directly warn the people in the county, once Cook and his men get there, I'm afraid that if anyone goes in again, they won't be able to come out alive."

"So what is your proposal?"

"We'd better do it sooner."

That being said, news from the hut had been all night long, and no trace of the Cook Gang had been found.

And the next morning, Cook still didn't show up.

"What's the matter, is there a deviation in the route you gave?" The old cowboy asked Zhang Heng.

"Route...... There should be no problem, and there is still a day before the appointed time, although according to their movement speed should have arrived, but it is not ruled out that some other accidents have happened on the way, so wait. Zhang Heng said.

If Zhang Heng's equestrian skills are good enough, plus a good horse, he may be able to walk around the neighborhood and do some reconnaissance or something, but now, he has no good way to do it except continue to wait, Zhang Heng has already made up his mind, and when this matter is over, he will practice riding skills and riding archery.

So another half day passed, and some of the miners and peasants began to become impetuous.

They followed Zhang Heng out because they were worried about the reprisals against their town, and when they left, the town's defenses became weaker, and what they were most afraid of at this time was that Cook's men did not come to attack Lincoln County but abducted their town on a whim.

This situation is undoubtedly a disaster for those who stay in the town.

But not long after sunset, the scouts in the woods rode back at a gallop.

Everyone's hearts immediately tensed, because it most likely meant that the goal had finally appeared.

Sure enough, before the comer could get off the horse, he shouted, "The Cook Gang, it's those people from the Cook Gang!" Here they are! ”

The old cowboy was shocked, and immediately asked, "How many people are here, is Cook in it?" ”

"I didn't dare to look closely, they were very vigilant, and when they arrived at the hut, they immediately began to search the neighborhood, I was afraid that they would find out, so I took a look from a distance and ran away." The scout added, "But I'm sure it's them, because I recognized one of them, and he forced us to kill Sheriff Harper, and there are a lot of them, it should be Cook's army, what do we do now, do we want to go immediately?" ”

"No, it's too early." The old cowboy shook his head and said, "At least we have to wait for the sun to go down completely, and we have to see how the moonlight is at night. ”

With that, he pulled aside a tall, slightly chubby fellow, who was the actor of Major Wade tonight, and took advantage of this moment to tell the old cowboy one last time how he should shout to the people in the house.
