Qin Ling was sprayed with blood on his face, and he looked a little hideous, but he didn't notice it, he was just thinking about Xing'er in his heart, and hurriedly ran over to look

It turned out that Xing'er had fainted in fright, and she was a little depressed, and finally the hero saved the beauty, but people fainted, isn't this in vain?

But she hurriedly covered her with the broken quilt, and when she looked back and remembered Liu Laohan, she found that Zhuang Shaoyou had already helped Liu Laohan up.

Liu Laohan looked at Zhuang Shaoyou and said, "Benefactor! I don't regret my death, old man, please take care of my granddaughter. Then he closed his eyes.

Zhuang Shaoyou and Qin Ling were expressionless, but they didn't know what they were thinking in their hearts, and suddenly Qin Ling was about to rush out when he lifted the knife.

was pulled by Zhuang Shaoyou: "You stay here, it's still very dangerous here." I'll go out and have a look. ”

When Zhuang Shaoyou came out of the house, the pirates in the courtyard had been cleaned up, and only one of the ten brothers under his command was left to guard the courtyard, and the rest went out to cut people.

Zhuang Shaoyou quickly climbed a courtyard wall, watched the situation of the whole village, and saw that some of the fifty iron horsemen in his hands had to ride horses across the streets of the village, and some had to dismount and enter the courtyard, and the same thing he did was to cut people.

The pirates, who were scattered all over the village, realized that something was wrong, and immediately began to run out into the streets, calling friends and gathering together,

Zhuang Shaoyou's iron horsemen also got on their horses one after another, and a team of ten people first killed a dozen of them with a round of crossbow arrows, and then charged into the crowd, and the pirates scattered and fled, and then chased and killed.

About half an hour later, more than half of the pirates who robbed in the village were killed, and Zhuang Shaoyou didn't know that the one killed by Qin Ling was the leader of tonight's robbery.

Without their leader's organization, these pirates were slaughtered by the battle-hardened cavalry, and a small half of them retreated outside the village.

Zhuang Shaoyou immediately ordered a pursuit, the four-legged pursuit and the two-legged one, naturally it was to be captured, after an hour of pursuit, the pirates were basically wiped out, and only dozens of people escaped.

Zhuang Shaoyou took his subordinates back to the village to check the situation, only to see a wail in the village, and everyone was silent.

Just when Zhuang Shaoyou was about to gather his subordinates scattered everywhere and return to the camp to rest, a group of villagers surrounded him, led by an old man in his teens, with white hair, and black and yellow skin wrinkled and stuck to his bones.

The villagers didn't say a word, but knelt on the ground under the leadership of the old man, and the white-haired old man said:

"Benefactor! Thank you for your life-saving grace! The villagers also followed the old man to thank him.

Frightened, Zhuang Shaoyou hurriedly jumped off the horse, rushed forward to help the old man up, and asked the villagers to hurry up.

Zhuang Shaoyou is the most unacceptable to the behavior of kneeling in this era, and he is neither willing to kneel to others, nor willing to let people kneel themselves.

The white-haired old man trembled and said, "Benefactor! The old man, my surname is Liu, I am the village chief of this Liujia Village, I moved here with my grandfather two generations ago, I thought there was no way to live tonight, but I didn't expect that the sky would not die in my Liujia Village, and the benefactor was sent to help us! ”

Zhuang Shaoyou smiled a little embarrassedly and said: "Old man, we are just passing by, and we naturally won't stand idly by when we see this kind of thing, some small things, not enough to worry about!" ”

After speaking, he was about to say goodbye to the village chief, and when the village chief saw that he was in a hurry, he immediately beckoned everyone to kneel down and cry: "Benefactor! You can't go, the pirates suffered a loss here today, and they will definitely come back to take revenge, and no one in the village will survive at that time! Ask the benefactor to save us again! After saying that, he kept kowtowing on the ground, and so did the villagers

After Zhuang Shaoyou listened, he hesitated, he only had fifty people, just now the pirates were taken advantage of by themselves because they had no organization, if the pirates came to retaliate, they would definitely not be so scattered.

I heard that there were more than 1,000 pirates, and they killed more than 200 tonight, and there were 800, 50 against 800, and the odds of winning were not great, but this matter could not be refused, otherwise my conscience would not be at ease.

After thinking for a moment, he ordered: "Qin Ling! After waiting for a long time and no one answered, I remembered that Qin Ling was still there with Xing'er, this guy who was heavy on color and light on friends.

So another soldier said, "Go to the place where we landed yesterday and gather the rest of the brothers, the sooner the better!" ”

Then he turned back to the village chief and said, "Village chief, I promise you to help you eliminate these pirates before leaving!" ”

The village chief and the villagers bowed down again and thanked them.

Zhuang Shaoyou said again: "How many strong men are there in the village? I need their help to prepare. ”

The village chief hurriedly said, "Benefactor! Liujia Village has a total of 227 households, 123 mouths, and 170 young strong men, and there may have been some losses when the pirates came just now. ”

"Forget it tonight, tomorrow morning the village chief will help me summon them to the entrance of the village, I and my men will live on the hillside five miles south of the village tonight, if you have something to do, you can come to me, I will come back tomorrow morning."

Zhuang Shaoyou gathered everyone to return to the south camp to rest.

The next morning, when they came to the entrance of the village, they saw that the village chief had gathered the strong men early, about one hundred and fifty people, although all of them had some unhealthy dishes, but they were quite strong, and some of them had homemade simple bows and arrows.

Zhuang Shaoyou looked at these strong men with satisfaction, then turned to the village chief and said, "Village chief, there are many pirates, we are invincible, if you believe me, how about doing what I say?" I promise not to hurt a single villager! ”

The village chief hurriedly said: "Benefactor, your life is all saved by you, you can do whatever you say, as long as you don't leave us alone." ”

Zhuang Shaoyou smiled and said: "Don't worry, village chief, I will definitely take care of this matter to the end, these pirates must be eliminated!"

The pirates are scattered around robbing, and last night they got the news and gathered their men and horses, and they will come to take revenge as soon as tonight, and tomorrow night at the latest.

Therefore, I suggest that the village chief gather the villagers and hide in the mountains to the south before sunset today, and take a day's dry food.

Leave the rest to me, and let me command these strong men first. ”

The village chief hesitated, but still agreed, after all, there was no other way, and thousands of pirates were indeed not easy to handle. So he turned around and mobilized the villagers.

As soon as the village chief left, a big man in the strong man said loudly: "Benefactor, what should we do?" Tell me, and we'll make sure to do it neatly. ”

Zhuang Shaoyou turned around and looked at the big man and said, "What's your name?" Do you know how to do traps? Can you familiarize yourself with the terrain in the mountains to the south? ”

"Benefactor, my name is Liu Er, the village chief is my father, and I am the second oldest in the family. Those of us who were born and raised here, can walk within a radius of forty miles with our eyes closed, and who often go up to the mountains to hunt, how can we not trap, and you can tell us anything! ”

"Okay, Liu Er, you set up some traps at the entrance of the village in the north, and then go to the mountains in the south to prepare some hay, the more the better, and finish it before dusk!"

Liu Er took the order and left.

Zhuang Shaoyou pondered for a moment, and then said to his subordinates: "Qin Ling, you send someone to the southwest to check the direction where those brothers are coming from, and then send someone to the north to the beach to watch for pirates to land, and then prepare some fire oil rockets." The rest of the people followed me to the southern pass. ”

In the afternoon, fifty brothers rushed here from the place where they disembarked, but they were all covered with dust and tired enough, Zhuang Shaoyou was pleasantly surprised, and now he was more sure, so he briefly explained a few words, and let them hurry to rest.

At dusk, the village chief had already mobilized the villagers into the mountains.

Liu Er came back and reported that it had been prepared.

Zhuang Shaoyou said: "Liu Er, you lead people to set up some simple and obvious traps near the mountain pass, and then set up some powerful traps in the depths of the mountain pass, and then put the hay in the hidden place of the mountain pass.

In addition, choose some people who are agile and good archery to ambush in the mountain pass, and shoot them with arrows when the pirates come at night, and I will bring people to cooperate with you, and when the time comes, you will follow my instructions to advance and retreat. ”

Liu Er was a little confused, but he still went to do it.

It was getting dark, and dozens of small boats faintly came to the north of the sea, and in less than half an hour, the boats docked, and then assembled on the seashore.

A young man in a white cloth shirt stood in front of everyone, his face was pale, some were bloodless, he looked very penetrating in the moonlight, his eyes showed a strange brilliance under his not too thick eyebrows, his long hair hung down, and he was equipped with a sword around his waist, looking quite a bit of a merry swordsman's style, not like a pirate.

This is the pirate master.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the pirates had assembled, numbering about eight hundred, all wearing yellow turbans on their heads, making them look like the Yellow Turbans.

However, this group of fierce pirates did not dare to breathe in front of this big boss, and they were quiet, like a group of good babies.

The big boss was expressionless, turned around and made a gesture, and then walked straight forward, and the pirates behind him quickly followed, walking towards the village to the south.

After a while, Zhuang Shaoyou received news and took fifty cavalry to ambush in the village, with horses tied and hooves wrapped in cloth.

After a quarter of an hour, the pirates could not resist the joy of robbery, and rushed to the village, and the great master did not stop him, but watched from the entrance of the village. As soon as the group of pirates rushed into the village, several screams were heard, and more than a dozen people caught the trap.

The big boss was expressionless, but said disdainfully: "A bunch of brainless guys! ”

The pirates cautiously entered the village and found nothing out of the ordinary. The village was as dark and quiet as ever.

So a few daring pirates went to slam the door, but a few pirates reported to the big boss after a while:

"Report to the big boss, there seems to be no one in the village, and the people in the house are gone, probably knowing that we have run out of here."

The big boss pondered for a while and said, "Set fire to me and light it all." Send someone to the south to take a look. ”

After a while, several farmhouses were set on fire, and more than a dozen pirates came to the south of the village, Zhuang Shaoyou thought for a moment, he couldn't let the pirates burn the village, or it would be troublesome, so he immediately got on the horse with people, and wiped out the dozen pirates with a charge, and even the crossbow arrows were not wasted.

When Zhuang Shaoyou appeared, the pirates noticed the movement.

A strange smile appeared on the big boss's face, and he said to himself: "Can you finally help it?" Half of the men went to surround the cavalry, and the other half went around to the south and cut off their rear routes. ”

Zhuang Shaoyou and the others entered a state of war with the pirates, and the fifty cavalry did not separate this time, because it was not good to be divided and surrounded by them for fear of being scattered.

After killing dozens of pirates, they found a large group of pirates moving south, trying to steal themselves from behind.

Zhuang Shaoyou immediately made a decision and ordered everyone to withdraw from the battle immediately and retreat to the south.

When everyone felt that the south of the village, the pirates also arrived just in time, and Zhuang Shaoyou gave an order: "Release the arrow!" ”

Fifty crossbow machines "swished" and instantly shot hundreds of arrows, shooting through a large area of pirates who had not gained a firm foothold, and the pirates showed a vacancy, and everyone accelerated to break through and rush towards the southern mountain pass.

The big boss frowned slightly: "The reaction is very fast!" Chase me and watch out for the ambush! ”

The pirates, led by the small leader, hula and poured towards the mountain pass to the south.
