Chapter 340: Dark Officialdom
After the black-haired officer finished speaking, he drew his waist knife and swung it forward, "Boys, do it for me." Kill them all, and you don't have to leave them alive. A head will be rewarded with ten taels of silver, and the head will be taken to my ship to receive it in a while. ”
With that, the black-haired officer turned around and prepared to return to the ship. When the officers and soldiers on both sides heard this, they raised their swords one after another, and they couldn't wait to kill them in the encirclement.
However, where would they be the opponents of Yu Ren and the others. Although there were many people, their morale was still very strong at the beginning, and everyone rushed forward. But seeing their companions being cut down at the feet of the enemy one by one, they also began to be a little afraid.
It seems that the dozen or so people in front of him are not as easy to deal with as they seem, especially the woman who was wearing a peasant dress with a face like cold frost, and the sword in her hand was like a crushing machine. Anyone who touches her sword is either dead or wounded.
Due to the fact that she had killed too many people, her body and face were covered in blood, which made her look even more terrifying, just like the legendary dominatrix.
The black-haired officer was originally preparing to return to the ship. But when he saw that his two or three hundred men couldn't beat these dozen people, he couldn't help but be surprised.
"Up, give it to me. Kill them all, and I will give you twenty taels each, nay, thirty taels. ”
Those who had already retreated, when they heard that the reward had risen again, they all summoned up Yu Yong and began to attack Yu Ren and them again.
Yu Ren was surrounded by Ruolan Ruomei and them, and these officers and soldiers couldn't get close to him at all. But Huang Yudie and Yu Yuqian fought alone and were not with them. Although everyone is very close to each other, they are fighting their own battles.
Yu Ren wanted to help Huang Yudie and the others, but Ruolan and the others forcibly surrounded him and didn't let him go out.
Huang Yudie pulled her junior sister with one hand and slashed with a sword in the other. None of those officers and soldiers under her command were a joint general. As if to vent the grief and indignation in his heart due to the death of his master, Huang Yudie frantically slaughtered these officers and soldiers in front of him.
Yu Yuqian, on the other hand, seems to have not woken up from the nightmare of her master's death. Although she also had a sword in her hand, she couldn't withstand the siege of the officers and soldiers. Although her martial arts are far higher than these officers and soldiers. But every time her sword was about to slash at the other party, she always stopped in time.
Fortunately, because of Huang Yudie's protection, although Yu Yuqian was repeatedly benevolent and indecisive, she was not injured in the end.
Huang Yudie pulled Yu Yuqian with one hand, like crazy. She didn't care about the way out, she just killed wherever there were more people, as if she was not trying to break through, but to slaughter.
Those officers and soldiers who were killed by her retreated.
Seeing that they were about to break out of the encirclement, an explosion was suddenly heard.
Yu Ren was taken aback. It was the voice of the Three-Eyed Firebolt, all too familiar to him. Yu Ren looked for prestige, and saw that the black-haired officer had already taken a group of about twenty muskets and aimed at them from a distance.
The officers and soldiers who had surrounded them also dispersed at once, distancing themselves from them.
Yu Ren saw that the other party showed his firearms, and was about to find a way to negotiate with them again, but he heard Yu Yuqian's miserable cry, "Senior sister, what's wrong with you?" ”
Yu Ren turned his head to look and saw that Huang Yudie had fallen to the ground, and there was a bright red blood hole in her chest that was constantly bleeding outward.
"I advise you to be honest and lay down your arms. So that I can keep you all dead. Otherwise, I'll throw you into the lake and feed the fish!" So that you will never be reborn! The black-haired officer shouted.
When Yu Yuqian heard this, her eyes were red, she grabbed the sword on the ground and was about to rush forward.
Yu Ren hurriedly pulled her back.
"Don't be impulsive, they have muskets in their hands, we can't beat them. The most important thing right now is to think about how to get out. ”
Yu Yuqian no longer ignored Yu Ren's persuasion, picked up her sword and rushed towards the black-haired officer.
Yu Ren saw an officer light the musket in his hand. He hurriedly rushed up, threw Yu Yuqian to the ground, and rolled on the spot a few more times. Only then did he dodge the shot.
Seeing that Yu Ren and the others repeatedly wanted to rush up, the black-haired officer showed impatience and waved his hand to his subordinates.
"It's all solved for me!"
The twenty musketeers were lighting their fires when suddenly a shout came from behind them.
"Wait!"
The people sought prestige. I saw another group of boats coming on the lake. This time, the boat was significantly larger than the previous fishing boats. One of them can accommodate more than 100 people.
A girl in her twenties stood at the bow of the boat and shouted to them, "Don't do it." I have a warrant from King Lu, ordering you all to lay down your arms. ”
Seeing this, the black-haired officer urged his subordinates, "Hurry up!" ”
The musketeers were lighting the fire when they heard the men on the boat shouting, "King Lu has an order, and you two are ordered to dismiss your troops." Whoever dares to disobey the order to do something, will kill him all over the house and destroy his nine clans! ”
When the musketeers heard this, they were so frightened that they didn't dare to do anything more. No matter how much the black-haired officer urges, it is useless. A few of them had already lit fires and had to raise their muzzles into the air.
Seeing this, the black-haired officer snatched a lit musket from his hand and aimed it at Yu Ren.
At this time, Yu Ren was squatting on the ground, comforting Yu Yuqian softly. Ruolan on the side was busy treating Huang Yudie, who was lying on the ground, to stop the bleeding.
He was now relieved of the threat of the musketeers. Because he saw that Lu Yue, the lord of Mochizuki County, had arrived with a group of men and horses, and there was also a warrant from King Lu, he didn't believe that these people dared to disobey.
A loud bang came, and Yu Ren raised his head unexpectedly. I saw the black-haired officer standing there upright, and his head had rolled several feet away.
"General, are you alright?" Lu Yue cleaned up these black-haired officers' subordinates and came to Yu Ren's side.
"It's okay now. It's a good thing you arrived in time, otherwise there would have been a big incident. Yu Ren said.
"How did you get here?"
"I got a secret report from Jinyiwei, saying that Zhao Yan sent a group of men and horses to quietly follow you, wanting to take the opportunity to take advantage of the chaos to kill you, so as to monopolize the great work of quelling the chaos in Shandong. Therefore I hastened and brought a troop of men and horses from my father, and came after you. Lu Yue said.
"And how did you find here?" Ruomei asked. Because she is the same as Lu Yue, she has no scheming, so she has always had the best relationship with Lu Yue.
"She brought me here." After speaking, Lu Yue pointed behind him.
Only then did everyone see that Jiang Xiaowan also came with her.
"Yuan Qian brought me here before. He said he grew up on this small island.
The childhood he spent on this island was his happiest time. At that time, there was a master and three junior sisters by his side. Everyone is together every day. Later, when they grew up, they were sent to various places, sometimes rarely seeing each other once a year or two. Jiang Xiaowan spoke, her eyes turned to Huang Yudie, who was lying on the ground.
"Later, although he apostatized for my sake. But I know that in fact, in his heart, he still cares a lot about his junior sisters, especially Miss Huang. Jiang Xiaowan walked up to Huang Yudie, as if she wanted to tell her this.
Huang Yudie suddenly saw Jiang Xiaowan appear, and heard her lecturer brother care about her words. Her eyes, which had already dimmed, lit up a little.
"You, you...... Senior Brother...... Where is it? Huang Yudie struggled to raise her hand, but she didn't.
Jiang Xiaowan squatted down and gently held Huang Yudie's hand.
"Yuan Qian has already gone one step ahead of you. He said he would be waiting for you in heaven! ”
Although these two women turned against each other because of a man. But in the end, they still put aside their old grievances. This is a woman's kindness with a big belly.
When Huang Yudie heard this, her eyes turned to the sky, and a happy smile gradually appeared on her face.
