Chapter 136: Buried in the Fire
The caravan settled in the village first.
In order to better burn and kill the bandits, Song Che ordered people to set up haystacks at various exits.
In order to prevent the bandits from keeping an eye on the sentry, after nightfall, the caravan took advantage of the darkness to move to the designated place.
After all the layouts were completed, the soldiers left behind lit torches at the entrance of the village, lit each house, lit the stove, and released cooking smoke, pretending to be full of life.
The sergeants who were lying in ambush near the village, the crossbowmen had prepared their rockets, and the axe men had polished their weapons, just waiting for the bandits to attack and catch the turtles in the urn.
Song Che climbed a big tree and stepped on the branches to look at the foothills;
The caravan consisted of five hundred men, and if the bandits wanted to do this, they would surely come out;
The night attack does not hinder the two combat plans, either sneaking in softly and slowly, or driving straight in on a war horse.
From the foot of the mountain to the village, the distance is only four or five miles, and the road is flat and open, which is very suitable for cavalry charge.
"Pawns."
A beautiful shadow jumped on the branch, and the breeze sent a woman's incense, and no one knew that it was her.
Song Che didn't put down the binoculars, and said lightly: "I have a name, my surname is Song Mingche." β
"Did you ever think that they wouldn't come and attack tonight?" Lin Yue asked.
Song Che said: "That means they have no intention of hijacking the caravan, and we can cross the mountain safely tomorrow." β
"What if they lay in ambush in the mountains?" Lin Yue asked again.
Song Che tilted his head and glanced at the female swordsman, "Doesn't Lin Nuxia have a silver whip and a sword, and a thousand will die a thousand?" There are only six or seven hundred bandits, and they are not enough for you to kill. β
"You have a prickly twist in your words."
"You don't mean it."
"You're self-righteous!"
"You're duplicitous."
"You peddler pawn!"
"You watch the nursing home."
"You...... You have no hair on your mouth, and you can't do things well! Lin Yue's eyes widened.
Song Che glanced at her abdomen and said softly: "You not only have hair, but also oysters......"
"Do you believe meβ"
"Letter, of course I believe it," Song Che took out the envelope from his sleeve and compared it to Lin Yuemei, "And it's also a letter from Luoyang Mansion." β
Lin Yue said: "You are holding chicken feathers as an arrow!" β
Song Che squinted and smiled, "You have a sword in your hand, but you don't have a sword." β
"You...... You...... You ......"
"What's wrong with me?"
"You...... Hum! You'll see for me! β
Lin Yue put down a cruel sentence, turned around and was about to jump off the tree, but Song Che grabbed her wrist and said with a smile:
"It's just a few jokes, don't be angry...... You were worried that the bandits would be ambushed in the mountains and forests, but you can be bold and reassured. β
Lin Yue shook off his hand, "How do you guarantee it?" β
Song Che said: "If the princess and the New Year's coins are robbed, we all have to die - the bandits are robbing the goods, and we are fighting for life and death." In a group of people who don't want to die for their lives, no matter how vicious the bandit is, he can't grab it. β
Lin Yue said after a moment: "This is quite good."
Song Che said again: "Later, there is a very important task to be handed over to Lin Nuxia and your sisters. There are a few powerful characters in the bandits who gather to rob, and your task is to be responsible for intercepting them, if you can capture the thief and capture the king first, the rest of the minions will not have to worry. β
Lin Yue said proudly: "Do you still need to say this?" Naturally, I'll pick the hardest ones to deal with. β
"But you must not underestimate the enemy, and you must be ready for battle."
Song Che has been in contact with bandits, and in the past, several leaders of the Feiyun Gang had good martial arts, especially the bandit leader Chen Feihu, who was covered in copper walls and could not be penetrated by ordinary bullets.
Although I don't know the depth of this woman's martial arts, there are people outside the people, and there are mountains outside the mountains, so be careful in everything, and there will be no mistakes.
"You'd better mind your own business." Lin Yue jumped off the tree.
Night.
Gradually deepening.
The heavens and the earth are silent, and the cicadas are sleeping peacefully.
At the foot of the mountain, in the moonlight, black shadows emerged, and they walked slowly, under the cover of the grass, and were slowly approaching the village.
But everything was exposed to Song Che's telescope vision.
Song Che climbed down the tree and reminded the sergeant stationed at Linkou: "They are really here, ready to fight." β
The sergeant brace himself and is ready to fly.
A quarter of an hour later.
The bandits stopped thirty zhang away from the entrance of the village, and there were three or four hundred people in a dense crowd.
"Whoosh ......"
Random arrows cut through the night and shot at the village entrance sentry.
"There's an enemy attack!"
"Rush!"
The bandits lit torches and lit up the night, and the infantry took the lead in attacking, and at the same time, the sound of rumbling horses' hooves was heard from the rear, and a cavalry of more than 300 people was seen suddenly appearing at the foot of the mountain pass, and rushed to the village with dust.
The sergeants at the entrance of the village fought with the bandit infantry for a while, and there was a gap in numbers, and they could not match it at all, so they had to tear down the fence wall and retreat outside the village according to the originally planned intersection.
"Brothers, get rich tonight!"
"I heard that there is a stunning princess with a charming appearance this time, don't hurt her later, Lao Tzu also wants to taste the taste of a princely woman!"
"Kill!"
The three big men who charged in front should be the leaders of this cottage, and they led five or six hundred minions to drive straight into the village entrance avenue.
When they arrived in the village, the minions took care of it, but there was no one in sight.
"Big brother! These rooms are empty, and there is not a single shadow to be seen! β
"Not good...... We've been tricked! β
"Retreat!"
Don't wait for the cavalry to rein in their horses, and listen to the "snap" of a gunshot.
The gun rang out, and ten thousand arrows were fired!
The dense rockets, like meteors falling into the sky, fell into the thatched house, the summer wind blew, and the house was on fire!
"Fire! Fire! β
"Ahhh......h
The thatch burned with thick smoke, so smoked that I couldn't open my eyes, choked so much that I couldn't breathe, and I couldn't find the north.
The collapsed thatched hut ignited the clothes and hair, smoked to death, burned, smashed, and screamed in the sky for a while.
The infantry was unable to escape from the fire, and occasionally the cavalry rushed to the exit on horseback, but the sergeants were already gearing up and waiting outside the village for a long time.
"Tripping rope!"
A few sergeants opened their bows left and right, and pulled up a hemp rope at the exit, and whenever they rushed out of a horse, they would surely turn over on their backs!
The bandits on fire, wailing and screaming, opening their teeth and dancing their claws, the tragic situation could not be described in words, Song Che closed his eyes and sighed softly, turned his back, and couldn't bear to look at it directly.
", rush out with a bang for Lao Tzu!"
"Ahhhh
A big man on horseback, holding a double-plate axe, led more than ten horsemen to rush out of the village.
Those who can survive in the sea of fire must have good force.
The big man took an axe, like chopping melons and vegetables, and in a moment, more than a dozen sergeants fell in a pool of blood.
"Spread them all out, let's deal with it!"
Lin Yue led the sister group and rushed towards the big man on a horse.
"Woo bang bang bang......" several times the blades intersected, the female swordsman was obviously more skilled, more than ten horsemen bandits quickly killed more than half, and the rest were cottage leaders, even if the force was good, they were forced to fight back by the swordsmen.
Only the big man who made the double-plate axe fought back and forth with Lin Yue. That big man was full of strength, and every time he went down with an axe, Lin Yue had to take a few steps back.
"Stinky, dare to stand in my way, I'll kill you!"
The big man was furious, the double axe was pressed, and Lin Yue was harder than the sword, "Bang! A spark was struck, and the horse neighed under his crotch, and he was forced to kneel directly.
Lin Yue discouraged his strength and committed it from the horse, and at the same time threw out the silver whip, wrapped around the big man's plate axe, and pulled it hard, and also dragged the big man off the horse.
Dahan rolled on the ground a few times, slapped the ground, and threw his left-handed plate axe at Lin Yue.
"Lin Nuxia be careful!" Song Che exclaimed.
Lin Yue leaned back, and the axe slashed through her nose, and the difference was only a millimeter.
"Oops!" The big man roared angrily and pounced on him again to fight.
Lin Yue's body is flexible, he retreats while fighting, and can only turn from offense to defense, obviously his skills are inferior to that big man.
The big man flipped in the air, and with a heavy slash, Lin Yue was forced to retreat dozens of steps, and then jumped on the horse to escape, Lin Yue threw out the silver whip again, wrapped around the big man's arm, and wanted to pull him off the horse's back, but the big man held the reins tightly, and with the power of the horse's impact, he pulled Lin Yue back.
A big man and a fierce horse, how can she be pulled by a woman?
Lin Yue's center of gravity was unstable and she fell to the ground, but the silver whip in her hand did not spread, so she had to drag it on the ground, she wanted to use the sword to stabilize her body, but her strength was very little.
"Come here, you!" The big man pulled violently, dragged Lin Yue to his side, and slashed at her head with an axe.
It's a critical moment!
"Bang!"
A gunshot rang out, and the bullet hit the horse's belly.
The fierce horse neighed, and together with the big man, he fell to the ground, Lin Yue and the giant axe passed by, and flew out seven or eight feet away due to inertia.
The big man got up from the ground and shook his head from side to side, and it seemed that the fall was not light.
The rest of the bandits have been slaughtered by the female swordsmen, except for the big man, and the sergeants are narrowing the encirclement step by step.
"Come on! Bandit, I'm the demon king of the world, and I'm invulnerableβ"
"Smack!"
As soon as the musket went off, my parents raised it in vain.
Before the big man finished speaking, a bullet pierced his skull. His eyes widened, his knees weakened, and he fell to the ground and died!
Song Che blew out the smoke from the muzzle of the gun and sneered, "You are the second bandit leader I killed." β
"It has to be our Aunt Song!"
"Aunt Song, the pride of our Suzhou people!"
"Don't me here, the bandits are still there, go back and block the door!"
The sergeant continued to block the entrance to the village, and when he came out, he cut down the other, leaving no one alive.
Lin Yue gritted his teeth and held the sword, keeping his body standing, before being dragged by the horses, his white clothes were dyed black and worn out, his body was full of blood marks, and his hair was messy, and he no longer had the heroic appearance he had at that time.
Her bravery has surpassed that of thousands of men.
Song Che walked over with a smile.
But she turned her head away, stubborn and ashamed.
"The face is not scratched, and it is not for people to see?" Song Che said with a smile.
Lin Yue snorted lightly, "Just taunt me." β
"You martial arts practitioners, your mouth is harder than your body," Song Che took out a small clay pot from his sleeve and handed it to Lin Yue, "This is my exclusive secret disinfectant, which is very helpful for your external injuries." β
Lin Yue decisively refused: "It's just a small injury, why worry about it, I don't need it." β
Song Che raised his eyebrows, "Is it really necessary?" β
"No need!"
Song Che kicked away the sword that Lin Yue was holding, lost her support, and the pain made it difficult for her to stand, and she immediately fell to the ground.
"You ......" Lin Yue gritted her teeth, rubbed her red and swollen knees, trembling with pain, and couldn't speak.
"Looks like you need it."
Song Che leaned over and took Lin Yue into his arms and strode towards the woods.
