Chapter 133: Meritorious atonement
Dream Sho Courtyard.
"I don't mean to lie to you, but I hope you can go on the right path, do you want to be a bandit for the rest of your life?" He Dinghong said, "You once said that you would redeem me, does it count?" ”
"What I say naturally counts." Xia Houzhong said.
"If that's the case, do you want me to be scared after you for the rest of your life?" Hedinghong said.
"I ......," Xiahou Zhong sighed, turned his face to Ma Longtan and Sun Baojin and said, "Ren Zhanbiao is also very good to me, since the two of you left, I am in Hongmakan, it can be said that I am under one person, above everyone, he is almost obedient to me, and I can't bear to betray him like this." ”
"Brother, who is Ren Zhanbiao? Don't we know yet? Think about how he treated Tang Dalong? Back then, he was broken by someone and couldn't move, wrapped in a broken mat, and threw him in a ditch on the side of the road, if it wasn't for Tang Dalong to save him, he would have died for a long time, without Tang Dalong teaching him martial arts, could he have today? Sun Baojin said, "He can do it to his life-saving benefactor and the mentor who teaches the profession, let alone you?" He's just using you, if he's really that good, why do I have to leave with Ma Longtan? ”
"If I take refuge with you, will you be able to ensure my personal safety?" Xiahou asked.
"Don't worry about this, our Camp Commander Zhang is not such a stingy person, as long as you are sincere and make meritorious atonements, not only will you not die, but also reward you heavily, do you know that Ma Longtan and Sun Baojin have been appointed as deputy sentinels, and their positions are above me, and your future is also bright." Zhen Sifei said.
"Well, since you all say so, then I'll do it with you." Xiahou Zhong gritted his teeth and made up his mind to say.
When they heard this, they were greatly pleased.
"Is there anyone else in your family?" Zhen Sifei asked.
"There's also an old lady at home." Xia Houzhong said.
"In order to prevent Ren Zhanbiao from retaliating against you, then let's go and take your wife to our horse team camp together." Zhen Sifei said.
"That'll do fine." Xia Houzhong said.
Ma Longtan, Sun Baojin secretly praised in her heart when she heard it, this Zhen Sifei is really getting more and more promising, in this way, the old lady in Xiahou is in the horse team camp, and she is not afraid that he will change his mind halfway.
So Xiahou Zhong was untied, and the four of them said goodbye to Hedinghong, and went together to take Xiahouzhong's old lady to the camp headquarters of the horse team battalion.
Zhang Tianhe was overjoyed when he heard this, and led Liu Bodu and others out to greet him.
"Battalion Commander Zhang, Xiahou Zhong, the general of the defeated army, came to meet him." After Xia Houzhong saw Zhang Tianhe, he "pounced" and fell to the ground.
"Hurry up, please!" Zhang Tianhe came over and helped him up with both hands, "I am very happy that you can abandon the darkness and turn to the light today and submit to our government." ”
"Battalion Commander Zhang, I'm really ashamed of what you say," Xiahou Zhong said, "At the beginning, I was ordered by Ren Zhanbiao to level Tianjiazhai, and I am sorry for you and the owner of Tianzhai." ”
"At the beginning, everyone was their own master, and there were no personal grievances between us, so don't mention the past." Zhang Tianhe said.
"Battalion Commander Zhang, this is the first time I have come here, there is no salute, I mean that tonight is like this, we can capture Ren Zhanbiao." Xia Houzhong said.
"That's great!" When Zhang Tianhe, Liu Bodu and others heard it, they thought that this plan was feasible.
"Without further ado, I'll return to Hongmakan now, I'm going back late, I'm afraid that Ren Zhanbiao will be suspicious," Xiahou Zhong said, "My wife will ask you to take care of it." ”
"You can rest assured," Zhang Tianhe said, bowing down to Xiahou Zhong's mother, "Hello old man!" The younger generation is polite. ”
"Battalion Commander Zhang, my son is a bastard, I have repeatedly advised him to change from evil to good, he didn't listen, he me off to death, today he can take refuge in your government and walk on the right path, I am very happy, from now on, he is your soldier, you should beat, scold, don't tolerate him." The old lady said.
When Zhang Tianhe and Liu Bodu heard this, the old lady could be said to understand things and was still a good mother, so they were very happy, and then ordered someone to clean a room and come out for Xiahouzhong's mother to live in.
In the evening, there was a third watch.
Xiahou Zhong summoned more than 20 of his henchmen to discuss a halt and act separately.
There were twenty men standing guard at the gate of the Red Makan Gate.
Xiahou Zhong came to the gate with more than ten of his henchmen.
"Good leader Xiahou!" The sentry standing guard hurriedly greeted him.
"Good, brothers! Brothers have worked hard. Xia Houzhong said.
"Thank you Leader Xiahou for your concern, we don't work hard." The sentry said.
"I know, the brothers are very hard, today I specially prepared a few jars of wine for you, and some pig's trotters, braised goose and other rewards for everyone." Xia Houzhong said.
"Really? Thank you so much Leader Xiahou. When the sentries heard this, they were glad to have good food and drink.
Immediately, Xiahou Zhong instructed his subordinates to bring all the fine wine and ask everyone to share it.
"Leader Xiahou, you are really good to us, if there is anything in the future, you can just give orders." The twenty sentinels gathered around, eating and drinking.
However, after a few moments, after a few glasses of wine, the sentinels felt unsteady on their feet, and their heads were lightheaded, as if they were stepping on cotton, and they all fell down one by one, unconscious.
It turned out that Xiahou Zhong had already put sweat medicine in this wine.
"Do it!" Xia Houzhong saw that these people had fainted, and hurriedly gave orders to his henchmen, who pulled out daggers from their waists and quietly cut off the heads of the dozen or so sentinels.
Xiahou Zhong walked out of the gate and beckoned outward, Tang Dalong, Ma Longtan, Sun Baojin and others came over with people and horses.
"Sentry Commander Tang, everyone, I have already asked my henchmen to control the arsenal, all the guns and ammunition are inside, now, the people of Hongmakan are sleeping in the barracks, they don't have guns in their hands, Ma Longtan, Sun Baojin, you are more familiar with the terrain, you can take people to the barracks to control them," Xiahou Zhong said, "Sentry Tang, I can take you directly to Ren Zhanbiao." ”
"Okay, that's it." Tang Dalong said.
"It is said that this Ren Zhan's ability is greater than your ability to be a master, and I will also meet him." Li Tieniu said.
Tang Dalong nodded in agreement.
"Don't move, don't move!" In Ma Longtan, Sun Baojin rushed into the camp with three hundred brothers.
The lights were on in the barracks, and there were thousands of bandits sleeping soundly, who would have thought that so many officers and soldiers would rush in from the outside at once, all with guns in their hands, and the black muzzles of the guns were pointed at them.
"Brothers, surrender and don't kill, those who dare to resist will be punished on the spot!" Ma Longtan said loudly, most of the people here know Ma Longtan and Sun Baojin, and they were originally also the leaders of Red Makan.
The Siberian tiger Jia Daya was also among them, he was also a leader, he had a pistol in his waist, he took advantage of Ma Longtan's unpreparedness, quickly pulled out the pistol from his waist, and aimed it at Ma Longtan's head to shoot.
However, before he could shoot, he only heard a "pop" sound, and Jia Daya's head was shattered and he died on the spot.
When everyone saw it, it was Sun Baojin who shot him.
"Brothers, I repeat, those who dare to rebel, he is your example!" Sun Baojin said.
When the rest of the people saw it, they were so frightened that they squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands, Ma Longtan commanded, and his subordinates tied them all up with ropes.
